The Struggle of the Reborn Prince

Chapter 216 Talking about soldiers and generals

The atmosphere in the study became solemn. The Jin general and the silver technique were resourceful. They led the side troops to smuggle Shimenyu into Daizhou, which completely changed the situation in Hedong. They also destroyed the prince's plan to defend the enemy outside the country. Wanyan Loushi

He is not good at robbery, brave and good at fighting. Although he was defeated by the prince twice, his troops dared to fight hard and were fearless and fearless in death. He was praised many times by the prince.

On the other hand, the three generals sent by the Song Dynasty can be said to be all from the Western Army. But objectively speaking, the Western Army fought fiercely with the Western Xia for many years, suppressed Fang La and attacked Liao. Even the Iron Army could not withstand repeated tossing and casualties.

The most serious thing is the shortage of food and salary and the morale is low. Now with the fall of famous generals such as Liu Fa, Liu Zhongwu, only the seventy-six-year-old Zhong Shidao was left to take the banner of the Western Army alone.

Yao Gu is also the only remaining veteran in the Western Army, but his son Yao Zhongping's performance in the capital was really not very good. He ran away after his defeat. He also cooperated with the Zhongyong Army, and was more brave and lacked strategy. Now he

In his twilight years, he lost his aura of storm. As for Zhang Hao, he was the son of Zhang Xiaochun, the governor of Taiyuan, and was considered a rising star, but everyone was not optimistic about this new recruit who had not yet passed the battle formation. Zhong Shi was a 'Zhong family general'

One of the generals was only six years younger than Zhong Shidao, a veritable veteran. However, he made many achievements in the war against the Western Xia and was the most appropriate of the three teams...

"Second Master, the briefing from the Intelligence Department has been sent!" Just as the three of them were talking about the generals, Jianxi came in and handed over the information collected recently by the Intelligence Department.

With the prince's focus, the scale has grown and the division of labor has become clearer. There are more than 3,000 registered intelligence officers alone, and if the Military Intelligence Department and part-time peripheral personnel are included, there will be more. They are scattered in

The Song Dynasty, the Western Xia and the Jin Dynasty even penetrated the Western Regions countries further away, such as Goryeo, Fusang, and Tubo. It was no longer the three or five guns in the founding period, even the "big spy" of Li Jun's level

It's time to collect intelligence in person. But the Intelligence Department is also one of the most expensive departments in the mansion.

Zhao Qiong knew the importance of timeliness and accuracy of information. Its role in politics, economy and military cannot be measured by money, so he felt that the money was worth spending. The Intelligence Department was conquering Xixia and controlling the occupation of Xijing.

The roles in the assassination of Wu Qimai and other actions are irreplaceable.

However, with the increase in personnel and intelligence sources, more than tens of thousands of intelligence sent from various channels. If Zhao Qie checked them one by one, he would be exhausted and could not finish reading them. Therefore, it was filtered by the special personnel of the Intelligence Department.

Next, remove all the valuable, duplicate, and false information, and collect important information into a book and submit it to the prince for review every day. If it is necessary, please review the original.

"It seems we don't need to talk about the war on this paper. Three people have already been dispatched!" Zhao Qi quickly found what he wanted to know most through the index. "Yao Gu led 40,000 troops across the river from Henan to the north, and went from Hedong to Zhang Hao to the north with Zhang Hao from Hedong to the north.

Pressing towards Taiyuan!" Zhao Qi said, Zhao Li and Zhao Meng quickly found a place on the map and sat on the mark.

"The central headquarters of the Zhongshi met with more than 30,000 Shengjie troops in Hebei. Cross Jingxing Road from Zhending, cross Taihang, and rushed to Taiyuan at a speed of 80 miles a day to attack the Jin army's rear..." Zhao Qi hesitated after reading this.

.

"What's wrong with the prince?" Zhao Li asked uncertainly when he saw the prince's face change.

"Last year, I took Jingxing Road to escort the slant to Zhongshan. The Jingxing Road was tortuous and difficult to walk. In some places, I could only pass by bicycle. The central part of the Zhongshi Division plus the Shengjie Army had a total of more than 90,000 troops, and most of its troops were infantry. If Ridge, it would be a storm.

Walking for eighty miles, how can the baggage, food and grass be with you? The general winds for dozens of miles, and can only fight one after another. How can he concentrate his troops to attack? Is he so confused!" Zhao Qi frowned and said inconsistency.

"From the formation, two armies on the front attacked from the front, attracting the main force of the enemy, and using surprise troops to surround the enemy from behind, this combat plan seems to be nothing wrong. In this battle, fifteen troops were invested, and the Jin army had only 20,000 troops, with a force of 20,000 troops.

The huge difference is that it is necessary to squeeze the enemy troops under Taiyuan City and annihilate them!" Zhao Li said, "If a soldier brings his own food for seven days and marchs at a speed of eighty miles a day, he can reach three routes in five days.

After the army gathers, the battle will be quickly ended with the force of Mount Tai, and the battle will be resolved in two days!"

"Brother, our marching and fighting are not just a matter of talk. Wars are often ever-changing. We have fought so many battles, but once we copied them completely according to the scheduled plan!" Zhao Meng said, "This plan seems perfect, but who can guarantee that it will not appear."

What should I do if the other two armies cannot meet on time? What should I do if the Jin army sends troops to block the attack? What should I do if the weather changes and the road is broken?"

"He said it right. Zhao Li is planning the game and winning thousands of miles away. This is the highest level that our soldiers pursue, but we also need to think about the benefits and interests. Plans will never keep up with changes, especially in war!"

Zhao Sui was stunned by what to do if he asked Zhao Li three times, but Zhao Qi did not help Zhao Li, but instead taught him a lesson.

Zhao Qi knew that this plan must be the hands of the civil servants of the Privy Council. In their eyes, they only took it for granted, and there was no possibility of accidents. As the Du Yuhou, Zhao Li was in charge of the formulation of the combat plan. If he was like the Privy Council's people, he worked behind closed doors.

, In the future, the loyal and brave army may repeat the mistakes of the imperial guards.

"I know my subordinates are wrong. I am ashamed to teach me the right lesson!" Zhao Li blushed and admitted his mistake. Zhao Qi smiled shamelessly. At this time, he was better than making a big mistake.

"The prince, my subordinates are not clear. The young general Zhong joined the army for decades, how could he act like this?" Zhao Meng shook his head and said, "We have cooperated with the Western Army many times. They sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.

It is common to not save the enemy after the war, and it is necessary to reward the military pay. Once the reward is not in place, it is also common to run away from war. Old General Zhong will not be unaware of it, and he will act recklessly like this!"

"Oh, you'll know why when you look at this again!" Zhao Qi looked through the briefing, took out one and handed it to Zhao Sui.

"Xu Han, the Privy Council, was eager to rescue, and repeatedly urged Zhong Shizhong to attack the Jin army, attacking the back of Shangdang. Zhong Shizhong believed that he should be fully prepared and assembled the Shaanxi Army. Li Gang and Xu Han believed that Zhong Shizhong was afraid of fighting and was responsible for the war.

With a slut, he had no choice but to promote the army. General Zhong was in danger!" Zhao Meng said in shock after seeing it.

"Prince, are we sending troops to rescue?" Zhao Li asked.

"It's too late. This report was a few days ago. I'm afraid General Zhong is in trouble at this time!" Zhao Qiong said with a wry smile... to be continued...)
