Chapter 569

Continuous spring rain, all things grow.

Compared with the ice and snow in the grassland of Northern Xinjiang, the southern Xinjiang, south of Danshui, has been thoroughly bathed in the warm spring breeze. The continuous spring rain on the armor makes people feel that it is no longer cold. On the contrary, the earthy smell of the spring rain makes people feel very relaxed.

During this period of time, except for general Zhang, Lu que moved from Shicheng on the top of Longpan mountain to the south of Danshui. Although the battle of the tide of beasts was finally won, and the number of casualties of the major legions was within the acceptable range, the casualties of more than 100000 people still made the major legions hurt.

Moreover, because of the big army system, there are detailed files about how many battalions there are in each army and how many soldiers there are in each battalion. Moreover, each battalion has a history of more than 200 years. Each battalion has made great achievements and made great contributions. They all have their own glory and dignity.

These histories can increase the sense of honor and centripetal force of the officers and men in peacetime, so that the army of Daqian will turn these past honors into the inner pillar in the face of any difficulties, thus forming a firm and uncompromising force. But now the persistence and stubbornness of these battalions have brought Lu que a lot of trouble.

Let's take benlei heavy cavalry, which suffered the most losses in the battle of animal tide. There were 50000 people in ten battalions, and each battalion had 5000 troops. In this battle of animal tide, benlei heavy cavalry, which had been keeping up its strength before, was used as a trump card. It made great strides in the battle of animal tide and pierced the battle of animal tide several times. In addition, with the cooperation of Changqing, Huxiao, and Fengfeng, the three armed forces of animal tide played an important role, Finally, he killed the beast tide and ran into zhennanguan in a panic. Finally, he was put out by a fire.

However, after a detailed inventory for many days, among the ten battalions, the leiming camp, which lost the most, now has only more than 1000 soldiers to fight because of the whole heavy riding arrow, while the Leisheng camp, which lost the least, has more than 4000 people, and has basically preserved its complete combat power. According to Lu Que's original idea, it is to break up and add the heavily damaged battalions to other battalions, so as to sort out five to six battalions with complete combat power in a short time. After the war of the southern Liberation Army, the original battalion establishment will be restored, and then new recruits will be added for retraining.

However, when it was about to be implemented, it was boycotted by several seriously damaged war camps. At first, Lu que thought that these battalion generals could not let go of their power, or because of their age, they were not qualified and respected enough in the army to deter these elite soldiers. But after looking for Shen Zhang, the commander of the benlei army, Lu found that things had a lot to do with his imagination. Although it had nothing to do with his age, it was far from as simple as he thought.

These battalions, which were badly damaged in the battle of the beast tide, were all the best in the army. They were the best among the real elite. Because of this, they received the most rigorous training in peacetime and went to the most difficult battlefield in wartime. Take leiming camp as an example. This camp is the most powerful one among all the thunder ridden heavy cavalry. Therefore, it is leiming camp that will be the shoulder of the whole thunder ridden heavy cavalry when it breaks into the herd and kills the sea of beasts. This is also the reason why leiming camp is so badly damaged.

To let such battalions break up and then disperse their soldiers and soldiers to other battalions is an insult to these battalions with outstanding military achievements, which is absolutely unacceptable to them.

And this problem is not only about running thunder and riding again, but also in the Changqing army, the gale army and the Huxiao army. The battalions are not willing to break up and integrate into other battalions. Even if it is only a temporary establishment, their establishment will be restored after the war, and the troops will not be replenished by the Ministry of war.

In Lu Qian's impression, when he was a child, his parents and mentor explained to him that there was no such problem in the war of blue river and the war of destroying Qingyang. However, after careful analysis, Lu found the difference. It has nothing to do with his age and prestige, but it was his father Lu Chun who built the Tianhuo army as the main force of the blue river war and the destruction of Qingyang.

As the youngest Tianhuo Legion in Daqian, there was no other legion with such a thick history. At that time, the general of each battalion, including the subordinate general, Sima, Xiaowei and Duwei, were promoted and appointed by his father. His father had a unique authority in the Tianhuo army, and no one dared to challenge his father's authority for the interests of small groups. The same is true of Fengxiang army, including his mother. Her mother is the assistant chief Princess of Daqian. She is not only the assistant chief of the officials, but also the commander of Fengxiang army. She is also from a royal family. No one dares to disobey her mother's intention in such a matter.

However, it is obvious that Lu que does not have the same prestige as his parents. If he forcibly integrates all the military battalions, it will certainly cause the morale of the army to fluctuate, which will enable him to restore the fighting power of the main battalions in a short time, and then go south to wipe out the Nanli. His desire is just the opposite.

Lu understood that the battle to destroy Tianxing, the battle to annihilate the beast tide that had just ended, and the battle to leave Daqian in the south that was about to break out were all destined to be recorded in history. All the armies and battalions hope to have their own figures in such a war of national annihilation and to be proud of their battalions.

He understood, but his dissatisfaction with the various battalions would inevitably affect his wartime tactical cooperation and combat effectiveness, and it would also affect his subsequent deployment. It is clear that the task of a battalion of 5000 people is to send two dissatisfied battalions together. There are two battalion generals in two battalions, plus their important positions in the army, which are two completely different lineups.

When the time comes, who will be the main and who will be the deputy, how to distribute the war achievements after winning, who will be responsible for the defeat, and how to deal with the disagreement between the two battalion leaders. In this way, back and forth bickering, winning means winning and losing means passing the buck will surely happen. As a commander-in-chief, how can Lu que not understand the truth that his strategy can be consulted by all, but his decision must belong to one general.

In recent days, Lu que has been racking his brains. Even if he comes to discuss with old soldiers like Yu Yuanpu, the king of Zhongyang, and Shen Zhang, the commander of benlei army, there is still no good solution. After all, in recent decades, Daqian's army has suffered such serious losses only twice. One is the battle of Lanhe with Qingyang in that year, and the other is now. Even if we move forward to the era of Emperor Wu's expedition to the northern border in Chengping, it will be several years after the first World War, and then the next World War. There is no precedent for us to continue fighting after the first World War, and it is still a war of national annihilation.

At this time in the South Bank of Danshui, senior generals of the major legions of Southern Xinjiang gathered here. In the first place, Lu que sits in the middle as the commander-in-chief of Southern Xinjiang. On the side of the commander-in-chief's case, after several cases, he sits Zhongyang Wang yuyuanpu. The following are Shen Zhang, commander of the benlei army, Mo Yingxing, commander of the Changqing army, Gu Qingcheng, deputy commander of the Fengxiang army, Du Zhong, deputy commander of the fast wind army, Xing Gongtai, deputy commander of the Huxiao army, Lei Zhang, commander of the Imperial Guard of the left Army, who sit on both sides according to their military qualifications, and Zhuge Yan, as a recorder, sits at the bottom.

As for Yan Tuohai, the commander of xiyuanze army, who was originally on the South Bank of Danshui, he has been dispatched by Lu que to take the lead in going south to set up defense in Yanling County. The battle effectiveness of xiyuanze's regiment in intercepting the animal tide made Lu Que and Yu Yuanpu put down most of their doubts and fears. At this time, the army still needed to be repaired. So Lu Que and Yan Tuohai talked about it in detail, and ordered Yan Tuohai to lead the army south first. After retreating to the border of Yanling, they built Lu Que's army. Wen Yan was surprised to see Lei Zhang, Although Lei Zhang said only three points, Lu que still understood what Lei Zhang meant, which coincided with what he thought.

Seeing Shen Zhang, Du Zhong and Xing Gongtai looking at themselves, Lu que said, "most of our troops are warm-blooded men with iron bones, but it's really not proper for the camp of Da Gong to be subordinate to others. Shen Shuai, Du Shuai and Xing Shuai are in a dilemma, and Lu que is also clear. But your majesty has an intention, and the war will continue."

"Lu Shuai ~" Shen Zhang seemed to understand something. He wanted to speak, but Lu que raised his hand to stop him.

Lu que went on to say, "in this case, the battalions with heavy casualties stayed in Danshui and were led by the king of Zhongyang. After Kao Gong Si verified the military achievements, the king of Zhongyang directly played his majesty to ask for meritorious service for the soldiers of each battalions, and made compensation to the families of the soldiers who died in the battle. As for the remaining battalions with relatively complete combat power, they went south with our commander to fight against Nanli after zhennanguan's military supplies arrived. "
