Chapter 199 What are you fighting for?
Li Guangbi once asked Xu Yi whether he should send troops when the Xi tribe and the Khitan did not disturb the border?
"Any act of being rebellious, rebellious, and rebellious, never restless, and going back on one's own words, is a rebel in my eyes! If you want to belong, you will belong completely, and leave the army and return to the fields, and leave the peace to me."
"Or organize some decent army, set up a clear battle, fight with our Shence Army, and never stop until death!"
"This time the imperial court sent my Shence Army north, not here to play houses, but to fight. If the Khitan of Xi's army has not disturbed the border for many years, would it be that my Shence Army directly changed its number and changed it to Youzhou Army?"
"No matter what the other party is, I just want to fight, I have to be defeated and beaten!"
In fact, the Shence Army left the capital and did go on a war, not garrison. Since the Shence Army arrived in Youzhou, the imperial court has no more orders to fight, and it seems to treat the Shence Army like the governors of various places.
Xu Yi was very worried that he would need to stay in Youzhou from now on.
According to Cui Ying and Xu Qing's letter, the industrial income of Chang'an has never been reduced by a cent. However, in the military city of Xiliuying, the Ministry of Works of the Court dispatched a lot of officials... This is exactly what Xu Yi was worried about.
The saint is not stupid, on the contrary, he is a wise ruler who is ranked first, at least now.
When Xu Yi presented his firearms, he thought that promoting firearms could allow the court to control the local army. When Xu Yi brought the Shen Ce Army to the expedition, he had the opportunity to intervene in the Xiliuying Military City.
What Xu Yi was worried about was not the intervention of the court, but the systems he formulated in Xiliuying would be implemented by bastard officials in the court to be unrecognizable... Two years is not enough to make those craftsmen develop habits; two years is even more impossible to make those craftsmen have the qualities of resisting officials of the Ministry of Works.
Xu Yi has selfishness and public aspirations. Although he has been struggling between public and private, he never thought of treating Xiliuying Military City as private property. It can be used as a force, but it is impossible to achieve private property.
In this way, Xu Yi was very worried that when the imperial court took over in this way without a complete standardization and an absolute system was formed, it would lead to immeasurable consequences.
Therefore, Xu Yi needs to fight a big battle in Youzhou as soon as possible so that the saints and the court dare not touch everything in Liuying Military City at will!
So, the army set out on the battlefield...
The news of the army's war should have spread throughout the north, and Xu Yi never thought about covering it up.
When the army left Yanshan Mountain in the north, passed Jizhou, and was about to reach the Luanhe area, the scout finally discovered that there was movement from the enemy.
"Master General, nearly 10,000 Xi tribes and Khitan cavalry were found in the Taiping Mountain area, and countless infantrymen were countless. This place is close to Pinglu area. Do you contact General An to assist in the battle?"
Xue Song looked at the scout's report and asked Xu Yi in accordance with the map.
After all, I am not used to the combat power of the Shen Ce Army, only tens of thousands of cavalry!
"What do you think about Brother Guangbi?"
"I thought this number of people was not necessary, and it was not enough for the Shen Ce Army to swallow it alive, let alone we brought five thousand Youzhou elite cavalry this time."
"Since you want to give the court a big victory, it doesn't mean much to win with more."
Li Guangbi was very relaxed, not as cautious as Xue Song.
The firearms of the Shence Army are most suitable for large-scale killing. The more soldiers and horses the opponent is, the more they can fully reflect the power of the firearms. For the Shence Army, they are afraid that there are not many people on the enemy.
"Where is the preset of the battlefield?"
Xue Song asked again.
"You two discuss it, whatever you want."
After Xu Yi finished speaking, he was strolling around except for the handsome tent.
Xue Song looked at Xu Yi's back as he went out, then turned to look at Li Guangbi. Could it be that there was a hidden secret between the two thousand injuries and the two thousand fights? Xu Yi now gave him the feeling that he was a playboy who knew nothing about the battlefield.
The other party may have 20,000 to 30,000 soldiers, 10,000 cavalry, tens of thousands of infantry, and even elites who used the Dasheng Dynasty's standard weapons. Xu Yi just let them do it casually?
What a big war! Even though we have never stopped fighting against the Xi tribe and Khitan over the years, there are still very few such wars of tens of thousands or tens of thousands. Even when Zhao Hanzhang and his father were in charge of Youzhou, such wars were quite cautious, unlike Xu Yi...
"Brother Xue, this little man really doesn't need to worry about the Grand Marshal!"
"How to fight?"
“It’s right here.”
"General Li, this is a canyon... We just ambushed in advance, so how can we lure the other party into the trap?"
"No, we enter the canyon, enter brightly and boldly, and do not shy away from anyone."
Xue Song felt that Li Guangbi was crazy, or he didn't understand any military knowledge. He stared at Li Guangbi... At this moment, Xue Song regretted following Xu Yi.
What is this level? Even fighting, seeking death.
"General Xue, arrange the cavalry of the Shence Army and Youzhou Army on the periphery, and the chariots carry tiger squatting cannons into the canyon... General Xue, I, Li Guangbi, came from the Li family in Liucheng, and the general family, don't you know that the army is in danger of being surrounded?"
"The Shen Ce Army is different, and it is different from all the troops. Even if it is surrounded, the only one who will be defeated will be the other party in the end. Let's take a look..."
When the troops are equal, the Shence Army really does not need to consider tactics in battle. If the troops exceed five times the strength, the general may take it seriously.
In the past two years, the general of the army in Xiliuying has developed more than just a firearm. The sand table and war deduction have become the regular study of the generals of the Shence Army.
At first, Li Guangbi was not ashamed, but since he played with Dashen several times, he still used the examples of the battles he had when the grand ceremony was in his early years. In the end, he had to admit the effectiveness of the sand table deduction and also had to admit the high strategy of Dashen's strategy.
Even Li Guangbi, who has improved a lot over the years.
To be honest, the captains of the Shence Army know how to fight this little thing.
Since the beginning of the establishment of the Shence Army, Xu Yi has been implementing the theoretical system of staff. From Xu Yi, Li Guangbi, to the specific lieutenants, they all participated in the entire tactical discussion, and finally formed a combat plan that must be implemented.
For example, this time... it seems really not worth mentioning.
Li Guangbi accompanied Xue Song into the canyon. No one in Shen Ce Army thought it was inappropriate. He was not worried about the safety of the deputy general. He performed his duties and did not become the deputy general by his side.
What should I worry about? The shape of the chariot is similar to the popular four-wheeled carriage in Chang'an East, but it has been tested in the military city. Except for the crossbow, there are almost no weapons that can penetrate the chariot's carriage.
The Shen Ce Army, which had less than two thousand, entered the canyon, felt like a vanguard, but the support team that had not followed up seemed to be a rash side division waiting to be eaten by the Khitan of the Xi army.
Xue Song was a little nervous. He was like Li Guangbi, wearing regular clothes and not even carrying weapons. If he was surrounded, he would not know whether the soldiers could escape. Even if he and Li Guangbi were extremely brave, they would only die.
"Worry?"
Li Guangbi asked, smiling. Xue Song didn't know how to answer, and smiled bitterly.
“Look at………”
Li Guangbi took a waist knife from the inner wall of the chariot and then got up. He definitely used his strength and directly chopped the inner wall of the chariot...
With just a "bang", Li Guangbi handed the waist knife to Xue Song: "This..."
"No doubt, the inner wall of the chariot is comparable to that of armor. It is the type of plate armor. It has two layers, and it is the plate armor that Shuai Xu has improved the steelmaking method."
"The military city not only has a firearm workshop, but also a steelmaking workshop. How to say it, the Shence Army was made up of Xu Shuai with the income from many of his own industries......"
The most common saying in Xu Shuai said: In battle, fighting is equipment, fighting logistics, fighting the advanced weapons, fighting the bravery of soldiers, fighting the richness of the dynasty, and fighting money and food...
