(at three o'clock a day, hard work pays off)
After Fang Xie came back from Wen Xiaodao, he first looked at the empty camp. The construction of the camp is simple. There are no soldiers stationed in Huangyang road. The camp built by the county soldiers and Minyong is inevitably rough, but strong enough. The arrow tower is very high. Standing on it, you can look across the huangniu river.
Shanziying is located in the northwest corner of Daying. There is a simple stable, which Liu Kuo specially left for him. Liu Kuo is a veteran of nearly 50 years old. He is kind. Fang Xie inquired about this man and has an excellent reputation in the left avant-garde army. No matter he is an official or a soldier, his evaluation is not low.
He's a good man.
Character determines everything.
The left avant-garde generals more or less learned from Luo Yao's temper and acted vigorously on the battlefield. Most generals belong to the radical as long as they go to the battlefield. But Liu Kuo is different. He is one of the few cautious generals in the left avant-garde. He doesn't even drink or go to brothels. He has only one wife and no concubine. He is also quite tolerant of his subordinates, and basically doesn't pursue minor mistakes. Because of this, his soldiers were embarrassed to break the military law.
But still because of this character, Luo Yao doesn't like him very much.
The Ten Heroes of Roman are all people who follow Luo Yao's temper. Zhan Yao is a replica of Luo Yao. Although Wen Xiaodao looks mild, he is actually extremely cold. At the beginning, he and Zhan Yao led the troops to attack the hezu stronghold respectively. Within one day, Zhan Yao broke the stronghold 13 and killed 6000. Wen Xiaodao broke nine strongholds and killed 20000.
Several other people have the same style. Otherwise, in terms of seniority and military merit, Liu Kuo can also be sent to the top ten Romanians.
Fang Xie exchanged greetings with Liu Kuo and returned to his camp. He could see that Liu Kuo was a man who was not good at talking. He just smiled gently all the time, and there was nothing to watch out for in his eyes. He seemed satisfied with his age, his military service and his official position.
Indisputable
Not everyone can do this.
Let Fang Xie take the best precautions against the camp. We can see his temper from this.
"Order people to take turns. People with worn hips can rest tonight."
Fang Xie gave a faint command and patrolled around the camp.
Chen mooshan couldn't help laughing: "the butt is not broken. It's rare. Those little rabbits screamed one by one before they got on the horse. After riding for two months, none of them didn't get their legs stuck. It's easy for them to put their clothes on Ma'anshan all the way. Now they all know that it's so easy to be a good cavalry."
Fang Xie smiled: "but they are still men. No one is funny."
Chen Qianshan followed Fang Xie and asked as he walked: "did the general order him to cross the river to investigate the military situation for a day or two? The soldiers are very tired and cross the river without a rest. It's easy to have an accident."
"No need."
Fang Xie shook his head: "I don't have to go there too many people. I'll take the people in the Imperial Guard to grab a few tongues and come back. It's not good to have more people. It doesn't matter if the number of people is less, but it must be elite. There's no doubt that the people in the Imperial Guard are better than the soldiers in terms of personal martial arts."
"The general can't cross the river himself."
Chen Dongshan hurriedly said, "it's too dangerous. Even if the rebels opposite are mobs, after all, it's a company camp of hundreds of thousands of troops. If you accidentally get stuck in it, you can't get out."
"I'm sure I won't go myself in the future."
Fang Xie said as he walked: "But it's different this time. This is the first time. It's necessary to do this kind of thing in the future war. I'll just order it. But I must personally cross the river this time. Although the senior general doesn't know when to use troops for the rebels, our Shanzi camp is a uniform cavalry and can't rush behind in the future. I can't rest assured until I see the terrain and force arrangement on the other side."
He looked at the soldiers who couldn't help breathing after their feet fell to the ground, smiled and said: "These soldiers are men. Since they follow me, I have to be responsible for their lives. It's normal for dead people to die on the battlefield. Which world war is not a river of blood and bodies everywhere? But these soldiers form the backbone of the Sui Dynasty. If one more person dies, the pillar will be thinner. Besides... They are not only the backbone of the country, but also the backbone of their families."
"The death of one person, ten people and a hundred people had no impact on the great Sui Dynasty. But for the family, it was an unbearable disaster."
Fang Xie sighed and said, "if there were no war, it would be great."
Chen Moshan was stunned and didn't understand Fang Xie's idea. In his understanding, it is natural for soldiers to die for their country.
"If you don't say it, it will be hypocritical."
Fang Xie said, "you can arrange the rotation. You can't cross the river tonight. When you came to the huangniu River, the rebels stared at it with countless eyes."
Chen Qianshan replied. When he went back, he couldn't help thinking that young adult Fang was very determined. Why did he seem to have experienced many things, such vicissitudes?
……
……
Returning to his cabin, Fang Xie found Zhuo Buyi and others. Looking outside, most of the soldiers had fallen asleep. He was silent for a while and said, "now I'm going to do three things, so I have to divide some hands."
He looked at Zhuo Buyi and said in a low voice: "Contact the people in the bodyguard's office and keep an eye on xinkouchang. If xinkouchang is okay, let them rest for a while. But as long as xinkouchang has an accident, it's terrible. If Luo Yao's people have an idea about xinkouchang, the situation will be difficult to deal with immediately. It's best to let the imperial court prepare... There's one thing I haven't figured out."
He paused and said, "the position of Huangyang road is so important. Why didn't the imperial court send troops to garrison? Even if the Imperial Navy would patrol the river, the rebels didn't dare to cross the river easily. But in fact, it should also be garrison. Li Yuanshan's rebellion has been nearly two years, and Huangyang road has always been the deployment of local county soldiers and people's courage."
"Could someone in the imperial court hide it from your majesty?"
Zhuo Buyi frowned.
"Even if someone keeps it from your majesty, can't your majesty think of it?"
Fang Xie shook his head: "there are three guards in the south of the Yangtze River. The farthest distance from Huangyang road is only two months. Unless something happens, they will be delayed."
"In any case, xinkouchang is the top priority. We must arrange elite people to watch. Once there is any trouble, send someone to the imperial court immediately."
Zhuo Buyi asked, "what else?"
Solution: "Second thing, when we came here today, I saw the county soldiers and Minyong withdraw. Although these people are not well-trained soldiers, they have been dealing with the rebels for two years, and there are many brave people among them. Send someone to inquire and invite some of them to come. If we want to know the rebels, send someone to cross the river to explore one way and find the soldiers of Huangyang road is another way. However It seems that they have more resistance to the left avant-garde. Please be as polite as possible. "
"I see."
"The third thing"
Fang Xie glanced at the crowd and said, "after midnight, I'm going to pick a few people to cross the river."
"Didn't you say you couldn't cross the river tonight?"
Shen qingfan was surprised.
She has been with Fang Xie. She heard Fang Xie talking to Chen Moshan.
"You know what my background is. Scouts go out to investigate intelligence, choose what day to go, what way to go, who to dress up as, and where to target. These things will never be revealed, even to the Lord. The Lord will generally arrange scouts to go out, but he will never specify how to go. This is the freedom of scouts and a necessary means of survival."
"Especially when they go to the enemy's territory to explore, the scouts' whereabouts will not be revealed to anyone except themselves. They are dancing on the edge of the knife. They don't cherish their own lives, let alone others."
"Are you going yourself?"
Zhuo Buyi asked.
"I must go myself."
Fang Xie said, "there's no need to argue about this. It's not a dangerous thing. When I was in fan Gu, it's not at all dangerous to go out to find horse thieves. Fan Gu's 800 frontier army has only about a dozen scouts, and every time I go out, I work in groups of two. Horse thieves are more fierce than the rebels, so you don't have to worry about anything. Now I might as well be in fan Gu?"
"With whom?"
Zhuo Buyi asked.
"Big dog, small waist, leaning fan"
Fang Xie said with a smile, "enough."
"I'll arrange another team of flying fish robes."
Chubby road.
Fang Xie nodded: "OK"
……
……
Fang Xie changed his clothes and tightened the Chaolu knife tied behind him. Mu Xiaoyao came forward to help him sort it out. He was silent for a while and asked, "hurry to cross the river. What else?"
Fang Xie smiled: "I knew I couldn't hide it from you."
Shen qingfan said, "now we seem barely safe, but no one knows what will happen tomorrow. You haven't seen the military layout of the left avant-garde? Luo Yao's soldiers have blocked all roads. If we want to go back to Chang'an, we can't get out from Huangyang road at all. In case of anything, we can only go to the territory of the rebels."
"Isn't that more dangerous?"
"No"
Fang Xie smiled: "it's dangerous to go back to the imperial court, but it's not dangerous to go deep."
"Go deep?"
The big dog didn't understand. He was surprised and said, "why do you go deep back to Chang'an?"
"Whether it's the troops of the left avant-garde or the rebels, the direction of Chang'an is heavily guarded. We don't have to go back to Chang'an city. I planned from the beginning. When we arrived at Huangyang Road, if Luo Yao didn't come to counter the rebels, let's go right away. Go deep into the rebel land and go back to langrushan. The soldiers of Princess Xu haven't lost. There is more freedom and not so much Trivial things bother me. "
"I don't understand your mind."
The sinking fan whispered, "just go wherever you say."
Fang Xie smiled: "I asked Qilin to find a place to meet the ten people in the service camp. We can't completely trust anyone now. Mr. Zhuo is a good man, but he is surrounded by people from the Imperial Guard. Luo Yao has a deeper mind than Haidu. I never believed that he came to Huangyang road simply to fight the rebellion. If he can get away, he will be in trouble. Of course, if he can get away, Luo Yao will be in trouble Shanziying is the best... "
He thought for a while and said, "take a pen and paper, and I'll draw the terrain on the other side."
Mu Xiaoyao patted the deer skin bag: "take it."
Fang Xie smiled: "let's go!"
……
……
Luo Yao glanced at his generals with cold eyes.
"Tomorrow, we will send someone to Yang yanye to ask for food for one month first and then three months. Huang Yangdao is not rich, so it is very difficult to support the food and grass of our 400000 people."
"Then arrange people to make some contradictions with the Minyong County soldiers in Huangyang road."
He waved his hand: "if Yang yanye doesn't open Xinkou warehouse, we can only get it ourselves."
