As a member of the northern Ming army, the three generals are not unknown. Today is to talk about the war there. It's impossible to tell when they will be mobilized to the front line by a transfer order.
So, the trio said almost all the things there, but they seemed to turn a blind eye to the five-star army that had arrived in front of them. Although the scouts had reported that there were more than 10000 people on the other side and they were all cavalry, they still didn't put them in the eyes of the three generals.
Maybe they already knew about the recruitment of the five-star army in Narcissus town. In their view, how strong can a newly established new army show without running in? But they are the northern Ming army, which represents the strongest country and army in the world. How can they be afraid of some new troops who have not been baptized by the battlefield? However, they have a large number of war horses. They are waiting to defeat the five-star army. The three generals can come here and discuss how to divide them.
In this way, the three generals talked while drinking. They didn't disperse one by one until they were all drunk. Until this time, sun Hongfang, as the commander of Jianzhou Wei with the highest official position, said, "General Zhu and general Tang, I hope we can unite and recover our glory tomorrow."
"Yes, please rest assured general sun." Zhu Dahai and Tang Longtian also looked serious, hugged their fists, and then strode out of the army. At this moment, none of the three people took tomorrow's war seriously. In their view, it should be like an adult beating a child. They usually don't want to see things like you, but once they stretch out their arms and slap them down, it's time to divide the victory and defeat.
The mercenary barracks are also unusually quiet at the moment. Except for the troops on duty at night, others went to bed early after they were full. Tomorrow will be a great war. What we need to do is to conserve our energy.
In the command account belonging to Yang Chendong, there are still oil lamps that have not been extinguished. With that spirit, Yang Chendong often rested for two hours a day to ensure that he was energetic and energetic. At this time, he was not sleepy. He was standing in front of the sand table and watching carefully. Although he held another military conference before dinner and studied all the problems that should be prepared and may occur. It can be said that ten thousand men lost their lives, before the war came, he wanted to verify whether there was any negligence.
Some people may attribute all of Yang Chendong's achievements to Dacang, but without his efforts and diligence, even if he could win, he would not have made such great progress in less than four years.
"Young master, it's almost three o'clock. Let's have a rest." Hu mang walked into the tent with sleepy eyes. First, he patted Yang Er, who was standing by and waiting to listen to the order at any time, and asked him to hurry up to have a rest, and came to the sand table.
"You sleep well." Yang Chendong looked up casually at the tiger mang coming, and then waved his hand, "I'm not sleepy. There's no need to be served here. You're going to sleep more."
"No, young master, I started to sleep after dinner at night. I had enough sleep. Hey hey." when Hu mang came to Yang Chendong, he had recovered his energetic appearance. Then after looking at the sand table, he asked curiously, "what's the problem?"
"No." Yang Chendong straightened up, shook his head lightly, and then said with a smile, "the preparation has been very full. As long as there is no accident, the war will be settled."
"Unexpectedly, it doesn't seem to rain tomorrow." Hu mang said casually. Having been with Yang Chendong for such a long time, he knew that weather change would sometimes become an important factor to affect the war situation. But when he came out of his camp just now, he saw the stars all over the sky. It must be sunny tomorrow.
"Of course there will be no rain." Yang Chendong continued to smile and drew a confident light on the corners of his mouth. "Not only there is no rain, it should still be a sunny day tomorrow. In this way, you can inform the soldiers to wake up later in the morning and let them sleep for an hour. No! An hour and a half is good."
"Yes." Hu mang was stunned at first. He couldn't figure out why he got up so late, but it was the order of the sixth young master. Of course, he did his best to implement it. But I really thought, is it because the troops have been marching without a good rest, so they let the soldiers sleep more?
In fact, this is not only the idea in Hu Mang's heart, but also that of other soldiers who got up an hour and a half later than usual the next morning.
This time, they slept for about five hours. Everyone was tired and full of energy. They attributed the extra one and a half hours of sleep to the sixth young master. They really didn't know that Yang Chendong had his reason for doing so.
The ten thousand troops of Beiming guards woke up very early. They were even awakened one by one before dawn. Although some people didn't sleep enough and had a trace of dissatisfaction in their hearts, they thought that the five-star army had appeared in front of them. Today, even if the other party didn't take the initiative to attack, they would fight back, that is to say, there was bound to be a big war today. That's the case. It's nothing to sleep less.
Not only the soldiers, but also Sun Hong, Zhu Dahai and Tang Longtian, as commanding generals, were promoted for half an hour. Then there was a fire to cook, wear armor, pull out the war horse, and be ready to fight at any time.
The day gradually lit up, followed by a big light, the sun began to rise, cloudless, indicating that today will be a sunny day.
"Ha ha, the weather is good, but I just don't know if the mood of the five-star army will be good." Sun Hong, who has ridden on the war horse, laughed at Zhu Dahai and Tang Longtian, looking relaxed.
The two generals naturally laughed together. At the moment, they seemed to have seen a large number of war horses captured by them and made war achievements.
"Newspaper, the five-star army began to move. A nearly 2000 cavalry has left their camp and is slowly coming to us. At present, it is about 18 miles away from us." a scout came to the three generals on horseback, flew off his horse and knelt down and said.
"Is this what we're going to do? OK, explore again." listening, the five-star army really wants to take the main attack, Sun Hong said with great disapproval. All this is within their expectation. The three generals had already agreed, that is, the five-star army came to the Liaohe River. If you want to pass, you must face them. At that time, there are only two options: attack and defense.
But if you just keep it, over time, food and grass will not be supplied, so attacking is the most likely thing to happen. Now I heard that the other party had indeed sent nearly two thousand cavalry. Of course, I wouldn't be in the slightest panic. On the contrary, there is still some dissatisfaction with the fact that they only sent less than 2000 soldiers. Such a few people are not enough for them to fill their teeth.
The scouts were ordered to ride and turn around again. Just after a column of incense, the scouts returned and reported that the cavalry of the five-star army were only about twelve miles away from them.
"It took so long to run for eight miles. Hehe, the foot strength of the five-star cavalry is too slow." this time, before Sun Hong commented, Zhu Dahai, the commander of Shenyang central guard, laughed. The man was slightly fat. His smile made the war horse seem to be under great pressure and walked back and forth for several steps. The armor on his body trembled with his laughter, which looked funny.
"Ha ha, yes, the foot strength of the five-star cavalry is too slow, so it's not a worry." Sun Hong smiled and nodded. Now he has more confidence in the battle.
After commander Sun Hong and commander Zhu Dahai said this, other heads of thousands and hundreds of households who followed them also nodded one after another. Tang Longtian, the commander of the left guard in Jianzhou, shouted, "tell the soldiers to cheer up and get ready to meet the enemy."
There were some lazy soldiers of Beiming guard station standing by the river. When they were greeted by the upper officials, they were all in spirits. Some were holding big knives, some were holding shields and arrows, some were holding long guns, and some were ready to reject horse stakes. They began to take action one after another. As soon as the cavalry of the five-star army appeared, they would give them a good look.
At the five-star army camp 20 miles away, the soldiers had a good sleep, ate a nutritious breakfast and began to wait for the military order to March. In the command tent, waiting for a famous regiment battalion level officer to enter the station one by one, after being lined up in two rows, he looked at Yang Chendong sitting in the first place.
After his eyes swam around each officer, Yang Chendong, who was originally serious, suddenly smiled, and the voice of explanation came out one after another, "the plan has changed, and the total attack time has extended back two hours, but I don't know if you are ready now?"
"Report to the sixth young master that you are ready to attack and kill the enemy at any time." the officers were full of energy and said with great vitality.
"OK." infected by it, Yang Chendong nodded his head with great satisfaction. Then he looked at Xu Yunsheng, the reconnaissance battalion commander in the queue and asked, "how is the bedbug (Northern Ming cavalry scout) solved? Has the first and second regiments set out as planned?"
Xu Yunsheng, who was named, stood up straight, raised his head and said in high spirits: "report to the sixth young master that 32 bedbugs were solved half an hour ago. The martial arts master and political commissar Chen have traveled as planned. It is estimated that he can reach the designated position and launch an attack in an hour."
"Beautiful." Yang Chendong snapped his fingers, looked at Xu Yunsheng and said, "the reconnaissance camp is doing well. After this is done, you should remember your first skill. Now, there is another task for you. You can solve the 600 cavalry behind you. There is no problem."
