The messages from the two "brothers" made Tiantian, who was already a little confused, even more confused.
Although the three towns are close together, they are still some distance apart. Furthermore, the nearby Ganren sentries have become active, making the transmission of information between the two parties more difficult and less efficient.
So,
What are these two "brothers" doing?
At such a critical moment, they went out of their way to deliver such inexplicable words?
The three-town beacon system is still there, but it is used to convey enemy information, and no detailed communication can be done.
The root cause of this phenomenon is that Chen Xianba and Zheng Man both believed that they were the only ones who had received empty tips. They also believed that they understood what the prince meant. At the same time, they instinctively believed that, Others received not empty tips, but very straightforward orders.
In fact, as early as the period of King Jingnan, there was a military system that combined great disadvantages with great benefits. That was the commander, who controlled all aspects of the entire battlefield with an all-round control attitude.
Every day, all ministries must send information to the general account, ranging from logistics and military supplies to minor conflicts and punishments among soldiers, etc., all need to be reported to the general account, so that the general accountant has a deeper understanding of the entire army. Control;
The disadvantage is that this will undoubtedly make the soldiers below become puppets and lose more autonomy.
Furthermore, because the status and prestige of the coach are too high, the "shock" power will naturally become stronger, making the military leaders in the bottom lane afraid to take a step beyond their reach.
Therefore, as long as the coach is wise and powerful, the army can be united into a rope and move calmly on the entire war chessboard without worrying about other things;
But once the quality of the coach is not good, It is easy to cause an avalanche effect, and by then, it will be a luxury for anyone below to try to turn the tide.
King Jingnan has always fought in this way.
As a close disciple of King Jingnan, Zheng Fan also inherited this system when he went to war.
There is no way not to inherit it, because back then Lao Tian almost asked Zheng Fan to do the internship step by step. After he left the army, he would definitely use his most comfortable and familiar way to deal with the situation;
The most important thing is... the former has not lost yet.
For this reason,
As the commander of an army and the soul of an army, the Prince Regent cut off his control of the puppet lines by using an "empty bag". At that time,
directly triggered a series of... chaos in the sub-level military command.
When the Chu army goes on an expedition, the Qian army goes out, or even the Yan army of other factions goes out for an expedition,
The first person to listen is naturally the commander, and when the commander's military orders are not clear or there are other unexpected factors When mixed in, adjacent soldiers and horses on the local battlefield can easily select a new "commander" on the local battlefield based on seniority.
Title,
Military merit,
Status,
p>
Family background,
Factions,
etc., there are too many factors that can check and balance and differentiate interests to form a new small group.
Even, as their coach, he often has to spend time to appease the military leaders of various factions under his command, in order to prevent the situation of the following from overcoming the superior.
The old Jingnan Army and the current Jindong Army do not have the problem of overcoming the following. Even though there are many factions and even more complex ethnic compositions, because of the strong men, no one really dares to jump. .
You must know that Zheng Fan, who was the most "self-respecting soldier" at that time and had no national concept at all, had to give up his family assets for the use of the army as long as the King of Jingnan issued an order. It can be seen how docile other generals are under this kind of military centralized system.
Therefore,
The situation is that
It is impossible for Jin Shu to command Li Chenghui beyond his authority;
He Gou Moli had originally On the battlefield in front of Guyue City, if the sword master hadn't appeared in time, his men would have almost caused a mutiny.
Although the current chief generals of these three towns grew up together when they were young, there is no clear affiliation at the military level;
Moreover, the three "original backgrounds" are also different. ,
Tiantian is the eldest son of Prince Jingnan and the regent. It is reasonable to say that he has the most distinguished status, but he is the youngest;
Chen Xianba is undoubtedly a grassroots rise, but he deserves credit On top of that, he has a very talented martial arts training, which makes him have an arrogant temper;
Zheng Man is the adopted son and the earliest to join this group. After all, Tiantian was not born yet when he came. Jindong has been interested in attracting barbarians for a long time, and the rise of Jin Shuke made Zheng Man already scheduled to belong to the faction under the palace.
If the three brothers can really sit down together and discuss it, things will be on the same page. After all, no one is harboring evil intentions.
But the problem is that the three brothers are currently stationed in three towns, and they cannot find time to hold a meeting. The subordinate relationship has not been clarified and straightened out. Zheng Man even thinks that the other two are going to run away. Under the premise,
there is no concept of coordinated command and operations at all. < /p>
In short,
Zhong Tianlang issued the order to march.
This is the right choice for war. It has almost become a habit for Ganren to defend passively on the battlefield. But the problem is that he has the largest and most elite cavalry regiment in Dagan under his command. Is it difficult to let the cavalry Dismount, dig trenches, set up camp, hold shields, and wait for the Yan army to attack?
The most important thing is that as long as Yan Jun is not stupid, it is impossible for him to take the initiative to attack now, right?
So,
the two Jiangnan local armies on the left and right began to march eastward step by step at the pace of old men and old ladies, and Zhong TianLang, personally led the headquarters, took the lead, and took the first shot, directly seizing the initiative on the battlefield.
Since then,
The prelude to the strange confrontation on the local battlefield east of Qianjiang in this great battle began.
......
"Zhong Tianlang is here."
Chen Xianba stood on the tower and had just finished listening to the report from his sentry.
How could a person who has set up the prince as his idol in his life since he was a child not pay attention to the prince's life rival?
In detail,
At that time, he and his own prince were among the four major generals. The little barbarian prince has long since disappeared, and he does not know that he was chased by King Jingnan. Where did he go;
Nian Yao was mutilated and now he became his own dog;
This young marshal of the Zhong family is still alive and kicking.
To deal with you, there is no need for my prince to take action. Are you worthy of fighting against my prince?
Similarly stimulated by this "empty tip bag", Chen Xianba became extremely confident.
“The Qian army is coming with force, and they are taking the initiative to shoot us in the head. They want to trap the three of us in these three towns.
They want to lock us up, but they also want to save effort. ,
Damn,
how much do you despise me?
Okay,
I’ll just have fun with you. "
"General, what are you going to do?"
"I'm going to jump out and have a walk with him. Aren't his men known as the elite of the Daqian Iron Cavalry? Then let's teach him. Teach him and let them see what a real cavalry is and what a real elite is!"
The Zhenbei Army was dismantled and the Jingnan Army was divided.
Nowadays,
Dayan’s number one cavalry has long belonged to Jindong.
Chen Xianba has 50,000 Jindong cavalry under his command. This is his greatest capital. Even when the strength of the troops is at a disadvantage, he still does not panic.
On the contrary, the more this situation happened, the more excited he became.
He has this kind of plot to face difficulties in his bones.
What he didn't know was that Zheng Fan had talked with the blind man and said that he always let the boy Xianba fight with the wind, but don't let the original general star seed wilt.
Right now, this is actually the best situation.
The phrase "wars are impermanent" is often followed by the phrase "water is impermanent", extending this rhetoric from the military level to morality and life. This is actually a reduction of cognition, because it is difficult to understand through There are too few military people, but only everyone can talk about morality.
Chen Xianba did not miss the city wall beneath him at all, and his move to give up was very direct.
"There is no need to worry about the gains and losses of one city or one place. The entire Jiangdong is our battlefield.
Just leave a stronghold. When our main force is outside, I see him Ganren, do you dare to relax and attack the city?
Send the order, I willThe troops are preparing to withdraw from Menhai Town;
In addition, orders are sent to the other two towns,
Tiantian is told to continue to garrison Donghai Town;
Order the wolf again Son,
Follow me and retreat first, clearing the battlefield for him. "
......
"You damn Chen Xianba, you ungrateful dung-eating beast! ”
General Zheng Man threw the order directly at his feet and stepped on it several times.
The messenger who came to deliver the order was stunned when he saw this.
Fortunately, Zheng Man is not looking for a messenger to vent his anger.
“Tell that bastard Chen Xianba and ask him to evacuate himself.
I don’t want to hear about long-term plans,
I don’t want to hear about leaving green hills without worrying about having no firewood,
I know that,
Without the prince, I would not have lived this long!
If I refuse to save the prince, I would rather kill myself now! ”
In fact, as everyone who has ever obeyed orders under the commander;
Zheng Man’s subsequent development is actually the worst.
Chen Not to mention the Immortal Tyrant, his current status can be seen by looking at the number of soldiers and horses under his command; Liu Dahu has become the prince's first secret very early;
Looking at him, Zheng Man They are all being caught up every day...
I really can’t blame anyone else. After all, his surname is Zheng Man, but his temper is the main factor restricting his development.
To a certain extent, he is more suitable to go to the desert to be a little wolf king who is admired and followed by others with clear likes and dislikes, rather than becoming a top general in a strict military system.
So. For a long time, Chen Xianba faced the Chu people on the front line of Shanggu County. Zheng Manze, because he made several mistakes in a row, was once sent to the eastern part of Shanxi to catch the savages who were causing trouble in the mountains and to arrest the smuggling caravans. /p>
“To fight the beacon fire, our troops must take the initiative to attack!
Damn it,
I have to break through this army formation first, and then break through the Wu family water bandits on the river. In the end, even if there are only 500 and 500 people left out of the 5,000, Ten people, even if there are only five people left, I will die by the prince's side! "
......
When Zhong Tianlang led his army to reach Menhai Town, he learned the intelligence from the front. Among the three towns, the one with the largest military force actually He took the initiative to evacuate before he arrived.
What he saw in front of him was an empty city.
This shot hit him directly.
"Yes, the Yan general opposite is quite good at using soldiers. ”
Zhong Tianlang did not believe that the military changes in such a short period of time were directed by Zheng. It could only be the decision made by the general on the opposite side.
I originally thought that At the minimum cost, by entangling the Yan army in these three towns, not only will he complete his strategy, butMission, and even have the opportunity to mobilize part of the main force and transport it to the Jiangxi battlefield.
Now it seems that my plan is obviously going to come to nothing.
The Yan army on the opposite side clearly judged their intentions in advance.
“Okay, if you want to walk with me, then I want to see who is the dog being walked.
Continue to investigate,
< p>I estimate that I will have to withdraw one more of the two military towns on both sides, leaving only one as a nail, and the other two will retreat first.""Yes!"
< p>To Zhong Tianlang's surprise,As soon as he issued the order, a courier sent an urgent military report from the north.
Seeing this military report,
Zhong Tianlang’s eyebrows wrinkled directly.
All the Yan troops in Anhai Town left the city. Instead of retreating eastward, they took the initiative to march westward.
He directly ignored his strong central army and took the initiative to rush to his left army, which was the Jiangnan County soldiers.
This means that he only needs to dedicate a part of his troops to attack the rear at this moment, so that he can complete the double-teaming of the Yan army and swallow it whole.
"The Yan people...are they crazy?"
This change that went against military common sense made Zhong Tianlang a little distracted for a moment, and then he instinctively began to think about whether there was something wrong with this. What a conspiracy.
Because of his long-term war experience and fighting experience, he clearly knows how high the military quality of the Yan army is. You must know that what he is facing is not the troops of other factions of the Yan Kingdom, but the soldiers and horses of the Yan Kingdom just now. Defeated the Jin Dongjun of Chu State.
Then,
Should I allocate some of my own troops to go back south and eat up the Yan army that was obviously destined to die?
Daqian Prince Consort,
actually hesitated.
......
"Nonsense, bastard, I will whip him personally!"
Chen Xianba, who had just withdrawn to the east, received a message from Zheng Quite a message.
He received it much faster than Zhong Tianlang, because Zhong Tianlang got his military report after it happened, while Chen Xianba, Zheng Man sent someone to him before he was ready to take action Reply letter.
Chen Xianba clenched his fists and tore the letter in his hand into pieces.
In the letter, Zheng Man was extremely humiliating to him, scolding him that Chen Xianba was a coward and a treacherous person;
The most abominable thing was this dog-crawling font. , it really makes people feel sick just looking at it!
"Your Majesty gave me command, and you dare not obey me, you bastard!"
What makes Chen Xianba really angry is that in his perception, The troops and horses of these three towns were already under his control. Under the Jindong system, the king's order was a symbol of inviolability, but Zheng Man dared to disobey the king's order.
At the same time, in his opinion, the reason why Zheng Man violated the king’s order wasYu, I don’t want to bow in front of myself.
This beast,
don’t know how he was beaten by me before!
As the commander of an army, Chen Xianba really didn’t expect that during the war, he would have to take care of and comfort the emotions of his subordinate Ci’er Tou, and that this Ci’er Tou would explode so badly. Reasonable!
However,
Qi Guiqi,
As the coach of the "Three Armies", although he is the nominal coach of the "Three Armies", Chen Xian Ba still thinks about the problem from the perspective of a commander, trying to keep his personal emotions out of the equation as much as possible.
"Send an order to stop retreating eastward, press westward, and resist the Chinese army!
Immediately send someone to give the order to the wolf cub, let him Get back quickly!
Send the order to Donghai Town and ask Tiantian to lead the troops to clean up the battlefield first. After the wolf cub withdraws, our troops will move closer to him. ”
Cleaning the battlefield here does not mean cleaning up the loot, but using the convenience of the cavalry to quickly clear a safe area to facilitate the safe entry of your own soldiers and horses.
Chen Xianba decided to use his own central army and Ganren's central army to resist first,
Give Zheng Man a chance to withdraw,
After that, their two armies moved closer to Donghai Town where Tiantian was located. After Tiantian took over, he used Donghai Town as a stronghold to break away from the bite of Qian's army, thus bringing the entire battlefield pattern back to what Chen Xianba had preset. in the track.
Because he believed that with his own level, as long as all the soldiers and horses were under his control, he was confident that he would have fun with the Prince Consort of Qian State opposite him for a few rounds of pushing hands and then find his flaws.
However,
from Tiantian’s point of view,
the constant military reports coming from the two brothers’ armies,
made him simply At a loss.
First of all, he saw the beacon fire information in Anhai Town, and Zheng Man's tribe actually took the initiative to attack.
Then, the military reports he received from Chen Xianba told him to stay in the town for a while, and then go out to clean the battlefield by himself.
Tiantian immediately felt like,
The two elder brothers were both showing off, while he, the younger brother, was the only one who was confused the whole time.
It was just like watching the two of them fight when I was a child. Although Zheng Man was pushed to the ground and beaten by Xian Ba every time, Zheng Man's brother always continued to provoke Brother Ba to get beaten, and he never tired of it.
At this time,
Tiantian once again took out the empty kit in his hand;
He is one of his own people, one of his own in the true sense. He admires his father, but at the same time he is different from the others. He actually doesn't have that many filters for Zheng Fan.
So, he may be the one who can clearly see the essence of the empty tips bag.
Tiantian looked back to the east with some confusion,
But it is undeniable that,
Although there is noFilter, but the general mentality of admiration that one's handsome father has omnipotence and wisdom will not affect it at all.
Tiantian took out a new iron box from his arms;
He passed on the old one to his younger brother Zheng Lin.
This new one was specially made by him. There was no cigarette in it because his father forbade him to smoke;
He rubbed the iron box with his fingertips every day,
"I always felt that Father Shuai meant that we should... take care of it ourselves."
After saying this, Tiantian answered the question himself. :
"In the end, we will only win.
It turns out that the two brothers have already understood what their father means, so they play so enthusiastically."
In an instant,
everything was explained!
So,
Since it’s up to the task...Tiantian’s eyes become deeper.
After all, what he inherited deep in his bloodline has always been the aura of that man.
And when that man is on the battlefield,
the most common choice he makes is...
Take a deep breath every day,
The iron box was put back into the sandwich of his inner armor, and he gave the order:
"Send the order, the whole army attacks!"
