At this time, Wang Cheng was indeed full of ambition and self-confidence. Since returning from outside the pass, Wang Cheng's development has been quite smooth.
Outside the Pass, using the domineering general's relationship, Wang Cheng obtained a lot of materials and equipment, which greatly improved the strength of his rebel forces.
However, at this time, what he upgraded was only the external equipment. In fact, the army under him was mainly those farmers who had no combat effectiveness and had not been trained. He was really trained and can be called it. There are not many soldiers who can fight, which is why many officials of the Da Lu Dynasty look down on them.
It can be said that although the power of the insurgent army at this time has been greatly improved in terms of weapons and equipment, it has not greatly improved its real strength. If it is really fought, it will not be an opponent of the court's regular army.
Wang Cheng also understands this. Therefore, he is actively using the time to train his subordinates and work **** their fighting ability. Of course, this takes time, and he himself understands this.
But at this moment, Wu Yan came, and Wu Yan led an army to kill him.
At first, when he knew that Wu Yan led the army to kill, Wang Cheng was very nervous, because his army had not yet been trained and formed. At this time, it won't take any advantage to meet with the regular army, not to mention. , Wu Yan brought a lot of troops, and Wang Cheng had no bottom in his heart.
However, he has reached this point. Even if he chooses to surrender, he will not end well. Therefore, Wang Cheng can only choose a battle. What he didn't expect was that Wu Yan was an important court official, but In terms of leading combat, he was really a rookie. Moreover, he was a rookie. He was still so confident. He did not listen to the opinions of the experienced generals under his men. He insisted on going his own way. This Coke broke Wang Cheng. Therefore, Wang Cheng caught Seizing the opportunity, he beat Wu Yan's team.
This heavy blow not only allowed him to defeat the court's army, and obtain a large amount of materials, equipment, and prisoners. More importantly, he also exercised his army and gave them the experience and ability to fight against the court's regular army. , So that their combat effectiveness has been significantly improved, and at the same time, he also let his soldiers understand that the court's regular army has nothing to fear, they can also be defeated!
It can be said that when Wang Cheng was most difficult, it was Wu Yan who helped him. It was Wu Yan’s incompetence that Wang Cheng’s insurgent forces had undergone a qualitative change, and the combat effectiveness had directly risen several steps. The number of people fighting has also greatly increased.
After that war, Wang Cheng’s strength has increased a lot, and he has become the veritable number one in the rebel army in the Dalu dynasty. Not only his generals, but also more trust and admiration for him, other rebel forces also One after another came to vote, which made Wang Cheng's hands once again greatly improved.
Afterwards, as expected by Wang Cheng, the court did not relax its vigilance against them and once again sent a large army to conquer them. In fact, at this time, Wang Cheng, who had greatly increased in strength, had already been on the frontline battlefield with the court. Although the ability of the regular army in World War I cannot be said to be a stable win, there is still some hope.
However, Wang Cheng did not choose to fight recklessly. Instead, he fought and retreated, creating an illusion of being constantly defeated. In fact, the defeated troops of Wang Cheng were just parts with little combat effectiveness. In this way, he not only paralyzed the generals of the imperial court, but also took the opportunity to successfully get rid of some burdens, making his army more streamlined, and his strength did not drop in the slightest.
After that, Wang Cheng used the generals' intentions to show their true strength and successfully defeated them.
Two consecutive victories were won, and they were still big victories. This made Wang Cheng's prestige in the hearts of the soldiers of the rebels reached its zenith, which greatly increased the confidence of the soldiers of the rebels. At the same time, the strength of Wang Cheng's men also There was a terrible growth.
At this time, Wang Cheng no longer hides his ambitions, and it is useless to hide. Two consecutive failures will definitely make the court attach great importance to him. Even if he signaled weakness again, the court did. I wouldn't believe it anymore, so if that's the case, he naturally chose not to hide it anymore.
He attacked surrounding towns one after another, showing his strength and ambition, and what he did was indeed to get more rebel forces to vote, and at the same time, the morale of his soldiers rose greatly.
Successive victories made Wang Cheng’s ambitions continue to grow. At the beginning, he just wanted to live. Later, he wanted to own a piece of his own territory. Now, he wants the entire Da Lu dynasty, especially It's because the imperial family of the Dalu dynasty is now unstable.
Although he was constantly fighting, Wang Cheng did not stop investigating news from the imperial capital. Therefore, he knew that Princess Qi had returned, and he also knew that Wu Yan was annihilated and the little emperor was about to be abolished. After that, Even more I know that the assessment that Princess Qi gave to the princes is actually to fight against herself.
But when he knew this, Wang Cheng almost didn't think he had heard it wrong.
You know, those princes grew up in the palace, they have no experience in commanding battles at all, and because of their birth, they all have eyes above the top, and they are even worse than Wu Yan before. How can such a person command the army?
Originally, Wang Cheng thought that he had defeated the court's army many times in succession. It should be that the court would pay enough attention to him, and would send more troops and more capable generals to attack him. However, when he did not expect it. , The imperial court actually sent such a rookie.
"Women really don't have much knowledge!" Wang Cheng sneered at his residence.
Wang Cheng knew that at the court’s side, it was Princess Qi who supported the overall situation. It was also the content of the mediocre assessment arranged by Princess Qi. Therefore, this made Wang Cheng very despised of Princess Qi and felt that she was doing something wrong. Isn't this harming one's own people?
However, this is obviously a good thing for Wang Cheng.
If the court really values itself and sends experienced veterans, it is not impossible to win, but it will be very difficult. However, now it is three rookies who are here. Then, Wang Cheng felt that it was God who was helping him. Under this circumstance, if he couldn't take down the entire Great Lu Dynasty, then he would be a little sorry for God.
