The world of bad people is invincible

Chapter 110 One step faster than the enemy

After Li Cunxu bid farewell to Li Siyuan, he came to the barracks alone, and then sent someone to notify the generals above the commander to meet in the big tent to discuss matters.

After a while, Li Cunren brought Yang Yan and Yang Miao brothers to the camp.Not long after, dozens of military generals also arrived in the camp one after another.

Li Cunxu sat down on the chair above the big tent, Li Cunren stood next to him, while the other generals stood below, they all clasped their fists and bowed to perform the military salute, and said respectfully: "The last general pays his respects to the general."

"Everyone, get up." Li Cunxu waved his hands and pressed his hands, signaling the generals to stand up.When the generals got the order, they stood up, stood back and forth according to their official positions, and then looked sideways at Li Cunxu.

Li Cunxu's eyes swept over the vicissitudes of the generals' faces one by one, and finally paused for a while on the face of Yang Yan and Yang Miao.

Most of these generals have followed Li Keyong to fight everywhere. They are brave and skilled in battle, and have rich experience in military battles.As for Yang Yan and Yang Miao, they are highly skilled in personal martial arts. Apart from the masters of the great heaven, there are few opponents in the world.

It was Li Cunxu's first time commanding cavalry and horse troops. He was not familiar with cavalry combat methods and had little experience, so he said somewhat implicitly: "I am not familiar with commanding cavalry combat. I hope you will encourage me."

"Where, where." The cavalry generals at the scene hastily declined. They ate Li Cunxu's meat yesterday, so they dared to trust him, so they hurriedly said: "Don't say that, general, we will do our best!"

Li Cunxu glanced at the crowd, and then said in a deep voice: "At present, the strength of Zhu Youzhen's army in Luzhou is unknown, we must discuss it carefully..."

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Yang Yan suddenly said: "Your Highness, in my opinion, that Zhu Youzhen is extremely conceited and stupid, so there is nothing to be afraid of, we brothers alone can subdue him."

Yang Yan's words immediately attracted everyone's attention.For the generals on the field, the two of them are outsiders brought by Li Cunxu, and it is really surprising that they are uttering wild words now.

Yang Yan's words obviously didn't fit the atmosphere on the field, so Yang Miao immediately stopped her and said, "You idiot, don't say a few words, although Zhu Youzhen is miserable, but he has many soldiers under his command, and there are capable people like Wang Yanzhang, It should not be underestimated." After speaking, Yang Miao said to Li Cunxu: "Your Highness, leave him alone, please continue the discussion."

The reason why Yang Yan uttered wild words was to express the determination of the two of them.They have settled down with Li Cunxu, and during the few days they stayed in Taiyuan, they were treated like heaven and earth.

In fact, Li Keyong ordered his subordinates to receive them, but Li Keyong didn't say so, so they instinctively thought that Li Cunxu had ordered them to receive them.

Coupled with Li Cunxu's courteous treatment of them, courteous corporals, and panacea that can improve their skills, they really want to follow Li Cunxu with peace of mind.Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Li Cunxu is more promising than Zhu Youzhen...

Li Cunxu ignored the two brothers, and then looked at the map that Li Cunren handed over for a long time. Although Zhu Youzhen was coming aggressively, Luzhou was also a big city, so it was not so easy to be breached.

He thought about it for a while, and then said: "I think we don't need to divide our troops. We should attack Zhu Youzhen directly. While he is attacking the city, harass him and burn his luggage. When the enemy advances, we retreat, and when the enemy retreats, we advance."

At this time, a general echoed: "General, I am all cavalry with strong mobility. It is completely feasible to run away after being harassed."

"General, our army is especially good at running. If you run away after fighting, ordinary infantry can't stop you at all."

Although some people agreed, Li Cunxu did not blindly make up his mind.

But after thinking about it again and again, he still felt that this plan was feasible.

At this moment, Li Cunxu had no choice but to fight or retreat. Since he wanted to fight, he had no choice but to go straight in. Li Cunxu knew very little about Luzhou. Apart from going straight in, what other tricks could he have?
And now Bianzhou is in chaos, as long as Zhu Youzhen can't attack for a long time, they will definitely withdraw their troops back to Bianzhou. They just need to harass the Liang army and prevent them from successfully breaking through the city.

"Since there is no objection, let's make a decision first."

The general plan has been decided, and then it is time to discuss the specific and subtle deployment.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him seriously, Li Cunxu said, "Zhu Youzhen is attacking the city on all fronts, so we must not take care of all of them. But our combat goal is very simple. First take out their catapults, siege vehicles, ladders and other siege equipment. , to prevent them from attacking the city."

"I decided to use a commander of [-] cavalry in front, as a vanguard, to charge first, and the main force of [-] cavalry in the rear, when the forward strikes directly, they will rush forward and burn their equipment. This will not only break the siege of the front army, but also Queen, what do you guys think?"

These arrangements are already the best results of Li Cunxu's thinking.He thought about it again and again, and felt that this was the least dangerous and most adaptable formation.

"High opinion, general." All the generals agreed.

Li Cunxu thought for a while, and then said: "Besides, before going out for the expedition, the whole army brought sulfur, nitrate and torches, and prepared to burn their luggage and equipment."

Li Cunxu looked at the crowd, but no one objected, so Li Cunxu asked again: "Who is willing to be the vanguard of the former army?"

As soon as these words came out, some military generals immediately said anxiously: "The last general is willing to be the pioneer!"

Seeing the generals vying for the battle, Li Cunxu was a little surprised.

Although Zhu Youzhen's army had many infantry, there were tens of thousands of them. The vanguard of a thousand cavalry rushed into the battle.

"Everyone, be quiet first." Li Cunxu raised his arms to stop a group of generals. These people all expressed their willingness to be pioneers. This is a good thing, but it also made him a little difficult to choose.But now Luzhou is endangered, it is better to prepare early.

At this time, Li Cunxu had an idea and said: "Don't fight, everyone, the commander of the first army is the front army, and the others are the rear army."

Generally speaking, the commanders of the First Army are the most capable. Li Cunxu currently has no time to examine the abilities and abilities of the generals one by one, so he directly appointed the commander of the First Army.

At this time, a burly general stood up, and Li Cunxu took a closer look, and found that it was the man who said "one horse is worth a thousand" yesterday.I saw him patted his chest and said: "If the last general can't ride a thousand horses and crush the enemy army, he will definitely come to see him!"

"The general is really a strong general!" Li Cunxu praised.

Even with the assurance of command, Li Cunxu couldn't relax, he immediately said: "Yang Yan Yang Miao."

Yang Yan and Yang Miao, who were standing on the side, immediately stepped forward, clasped their fists and said, "This subordinate is here."

Li Cunxu said to them: "The two of you followed the former army and went to battle to defeat the enemy. Once a strong general like Wang Yanzhang makes a move, you will go out to meet the enemy."

Yang Yan and Yang Miao looked at each other and said loudly, "Decree!"

Then Li Cunxu ordered each command to select 1000 brave soldiers to serve as cavalry in the front army, while the rest of the soldiers formed the rear army.

As for how to choose people, Li Cunxu naturally doesn't have to ask.As the commander-in-chief, you don't have to do everything yourself, you just need to let the commanders of each army be responsible.

Anyway, he had already seen the strength of this army yesterday when he invited the soldiers to eat meat.The soldiers under Shatuo's cavalry are all arrogant soldiers, and there are hardly many weak soldiers.

After the deployment of the military orders, it was time to adjourn the meeting. Li Cunxu encouraged him immediately: "As long as you fight the enemy bravely, I will report the merits to the king truthfully. In the future, the troops will return to Taiyuan, and there will be no omissions."

Hearing this, all the generals cupped their fists to show their loyalty.

In the end, Li Cunxu said again: "One step faster than the enemy, one step ahead of the enemy. We dispatched troops this time, focusing on the speed of the soldiers and running thousands of miles. I look forward to your encouragement."

……

After the battle was assigned, Li Cunxu called civil officials and asked them to prepare some dry rations for the urgent march.

After that, Li Cunxu's [-] cavalry finally set out to attack Luzhou.
