Han Dao world

Liu Xie immediately summoned Dong Cheng and expressed his decision to merge his troops with the North and South Army to supplement the casualties of the Weiwei Battalion and the Fifth School.

Dong Cheng was a little bit reluctant at first, and he didn't let go.

When Liu Xie turned him into General Wei and kept the three hundred cavalry as personal guards, he agreed without hesitation.

"All that I have is given by His Majesty." Dong Cheng patted his chest passionately. "Even if it is the life of the minister, as long as it is beneficial to the country and His Majesty, the minister will not hesitate."

Liu Xie was too lazy to listen to his bragging, and immediately summoned generals above Qu Junhou to discuss the matter.

Liu Xie spent more than ten days in Dong Chengying, spending time with these Qu Junhous day and night, listening to their past experiences and discussing tactics, and they have become familiar with each other for a long time.In the hearts of these people, Liu Xie has long been their chief general, and Dong Cheng is just a display.

I heard that there is an opportunity to merge into the Northern and Southern Army and become the Son of Heaven's pro-army, they wished for it.

On the contrary, Junhou, who was left behind to follow Dong Cheng, was a little unhappy, but he was Dong Cheng's confidant, so he couldn't tell what he was suffering.

Liu Xie then made specific arrangements.

He merged Dong Cheng's subordinates into the Weiwei Camp and the Fifth School Camp, not only to prepare for the battle against Li Jue, but also to turn the Northern and Southern Army into a real pro-army, preparing for the future personal command of the army.

Why did Sun Rui work so hard?

Why did Wei Jie, Ju Jun and others cooperate so much?

They have a common desire to promote Shi Sunrui to the position of Taiwei, and form the reality that Taiwei is in charge of the army.

They may not have discussed it, but this is what they have always expected.

Once an opportunity arises, they tacitly agree with each other.

Winning this battle was originally a rare opportunity, but the loss was too great. At this time, the promotion of Shi Sun Rui would not only arouse his disgust, but also make Shi Sun Rui have to face the desperate situation of facing Li Jue.

Merging Dong Cheng's subordinates into the North and South Army is the only way to solve the problem of insufficient troops.

It's just that, it's not up to them to decide who the supplementary Northern and Southern Army will listen to.

Shi Sun Rui and others may have thought of this method, but for various reasons, they tacitly kept silent. On the contrary, Yang Xiu, who knew Liu Xie's thoughts, took the initiative to propose this suggestion.

The opportunity was presented to him, and Liu Xie had no reason not to seize it.

Although it is not realistic for him to directly command the army to face Li Jue now, it is always good to make progress once Ri Gong dies.

Before that, he had to clarify the relationship between the monarch and his ministers with these generals, so that they would not forget who to listen to in the future.

"Guo Wu and Yang Xiu not only got luggage from Li Shiying, but also got some captives, all of whom are women from the Kanto clan, who are knowledgeable and respectful." Liu Xie said while looking at the generals. "They are all poor people. Since we have rescued them, we must arrange them properly. I remember that many of you are not married yet. Is anyone planning to marry a wife or take a concubine to get married and start a career?"

After hearing this, the generals suddenly regained their spirits.

Most of them are from Luoyang, but their backgrounds are very ordinary, and they have always only had opportunities to look up to rich women.Now that he has the opportunity to marry such a woman, he naturally doesn't want to let it go.

As for their experience in the Xiliang Army, not many people paid attention.

In troubled times, people are not as good as dogs, and it is not easy to survive. Who cares about those things.

"Your Majesty, can I choose?" A captain timidly raised his hand. "If you get sick, can't be cured, or become disabled, I don't want it. Will she serve the minister when she gets married, or will the minister serve her?"

Liu Xie was slightly stunned, and then said: "Of course you can choose. After defeating Li Jue, rewards will be given based on merit, and the one with the highest merit will be selected first."

Chapter 90

Shi Sun Rui sat in the middle, Wei Jie and Ju Jun sat on one side, and Wang Fu and others sat on the other side, all silent.

The war had just ended, and the casualty statistics were in front of Shi Sunrui.

This battle was a veritable tragic victory, the casualties were huge, exceeding their previous expectations, and the victory was extremely lucky.

Without the emperor's timely reinforcements and Wei Jie's comprehensive protection, the outcome of this victory would be unpredictable.

"Bo Jun, you have contributed the most to this battle, let's talk about it first." Shi Sun Rui said.

Wei Jie stood up and sighed before he could speak. "My lords, to be able to win this battle is certainly due to the meritorious service of the soldiers, but it is also because of the fate of the great man, who is blessed by heaven. If it is not so, I am afraid that I am already a ghost under the hooves of the Feixiong army."

Everyone nodded in unison.

Although they did not go to the battlefield in person like Wei Jie, and even beheaded more than a dozen flying bear army knights with their own hands, they all knew the fighting power of the flying bear army.

It was a gamble to fight the Feixiong army with infantry.

Even the most confident person would not dare to say that he would definitely win before this.

Shi Sun Rui didn't even dare to tell the emperor about this plan in advance.

After the replay after the war, after listening to Wei Jie's explanation, they had a consensus: if it weren't for the reinforcements from Wang Chang and others, Wei Jie would most likely die in battle like Wei Meng, and would not be able to wait for the reinforcements of Shi Sun Rui's personal guards .

"If we talk about the merits, it is the tactics used by Huben around His Majesty."

Wei Jie clapped his hands and called in three personal guards.Two men held swords and shields in front, and one held a spear behind.

"This is the tactics used by Wang Chang and others." Wei Jie explained while letting the guards demonstrate. "Including Wang Chang, there are ten people in total. One is by my side, and the nine are divided into three groups to cover each other."

Wei Jie twirled his beard, full of admiration. "Even if these people's personal abilities are ignored, their tacit cooperation with each other is enough to make the soldiers of the infantry battalion feel ashamed. We think that we have trained hard, but compared with these tigers, we are far behind. Gentlemen, we should work hard .”

Everyone looked at each other.

Wei Jie is a veteran with actual combat experience, and he trains most attentively.Among the five battalions, the infantry battalion is the most powerful.

Now Wei Jie said that his level of military training was not as good as that of the emperor.

Shi Sun Rui was not surprised at all.

Before that, Dong Cheng Daying's excellent performance had already attracted his attention, and he sent someone to find out about the situation.

It's just that this method of warfare was not mentioned at the time. Most of the improvement in the combat effectiveness of Dong Cheng's soldiers came from the active cooperation of the soldiers on the battlefield.Inspired by the Son of Heaven, those battle-tested soldiers provided their own experience exchanged with blood, took the essence and discarded the dross, and made up for Dong Cheng's lack of familiarity with the war and improper command, so that he could rely on the battalion to repel the enemy. Guo Si's attack.

"Bo Jun, when did this method of warfare appear, and who taught it?"

"I asked Wang Chang, this kind of tactics was only practiced in the past few days. It was his majesty who discussed with them and pondered each other."

Shi Sun Rui nodded, thinking about it.

This result was exactly in line with his expectations, and there was no surprise.

Although the Son of Heaven is clever, it is impossible to create something out of nothing. An unheard-of method of warfare can only be the result of mutual inspiration with Huben.With the assistance of a great swordsman like Wang Yue, it is not impossible to simplify the tactics based on Shiwu.

"My lords, the Son of Heaven is supreme. As a great man of Zhongxing, we can still share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers, and we should not be arrogant." Shi Sun Rui tapped twice on the case. "If you can't strengthen yourself, the North and South Army will soon lose its name."

Everyone looked at each other and nodded in unison.

At this time, a personal guard entered the account and whispered something in Shi Sun Rui's ear.

Shi Sunrui nodded slightly, stood up, and swung his sleeves. "Your Majesty is discussing matters in Dong Cheng's camp, and I think he will summon us soon. Please hurry back to the camp and make some preparations, so as not to panic."

"Here." Everyone suddenly agreed.

-

"Although Li Shi is defeated, Li Jue is coming, and there is no delay in reorganizing the Northern and Southern armies."

Liu Xie didn't have any politeness, and asked the question straight to the point, his eyes swept over the crowd, and finally fell on the face of the guard Sun Rui.

"Why did Wei Wei teach me?"

Sun Rui bowed and worshiped. "What Your Majesty said is very true. The Weiwei Battalion and the Infantry Battalion suffered heavy losses and urgently need to be replenished. I implore Your Majesty to transfer soldiers from each battalion and take advantage of the opportunity to celebrate the victory to boost morale and start training tomorrow morning to prepare for the battle against Li Jue. "

Liu Xie smiled silently.

Shi Sun Rui's plan is the same as Yang Xiu's suggestion, which is to merge Dong Cheng's subordinates into the North and South Army, but he doesn't say it directly, but says they will be transferred from each battalion.

Dare I ask, besides Dong Cheng's camp, whose camp can he draw from?

Is Yang Feng willing to let people go, or is Yang definitely going to let people go?

"At the time of the battle, will the formation of the soldiers of the battalion affect the command of the Weiwei?" Liu Xie said calmly.

Don't worry, the command is still yours, and I won't fight it with you.

Shi Sunrui said indifferently: "There will definitely be influence. Fortunately, His Majesty is here. Although the soldiers belong to different ranks, they all fight for His Majesty."

Whether it affects or not, the key is not with me, but with Your Majesty.

He paused for a moment to give Liu Xie time to think. "I think that the song should be used as the system, and the length of the song should not be changed. The same is true when you are in battle. It may make up for the disadvantages of the soldiers not being familiar with each other."

Liu Xie solicited other people's opinions procedurally, and then accepted Shi Sunrui's suggestion.

Everyone knows in their hearts that this is currently a solution acceptable to both parties.

Liu Xie immediately announced the reward plan, and at the same time nearly 2000 Dong Cheng's subordinates were added to the North and South Army.

Wei Weiying added 1000 people to Wuqu.

The infantry battalion supplemented the Sanqu with 600 people.

The sound shooting battalion added 200 people.

There were still less than one cavalry, who were added to the cavalry battalion under the command of Wang Fu, as the personal guard cavalry and mobile force of the guard Sun Rui.

Considering that Wei Meng died in battle and the infantry battalion lacked a Sima, Liu Xie proposed that Xu Huang be the Sima of the infantry battalion to assist Wei Jie in fighting.If there is another battle, unless it is absolutely necessary, Wei Jie is not allowed to go to the battlefield in person, and Xu Huang will carry out specific combat tasks.

Sima Zhiqianshi of the Infantry Battalion, Xu Huang was promoted.

On the surface, the generals of the Weiwei Battalion and the Fifth School of the Northern Army made the most contributions and received the most promotions.

In fact, due to the large amount of fresh blood, almost half of the northern and southern armies changed their blood, and half of the low-level generals represented by Qu Junhou came from Dong Cheng's camp.

When Liu Xie and Shi Sun Rui agreed, they followed the command of Shi Sun Rui and others to face Li Jue.

When Liu Xie and Shi Sun Rui disagreed, it was doubtful whether Shi Sun Rui could command these people.

Even if Shi Sun Rui makes new achievements and is expected by everyone to become a Taiwei, whether he can control the military power with one hand depends on whether Liu Xie nods.

In the face of the great enemy, both sides made half a step forward, not only expressing their respective wills, but also maintaining due restraint.

After reaching a consensus, Liu Xie immediately issued an edict to celebrate the meritorious service of the soldiers.

The whole camp erupted immediately.

Chapter 91 A Rare Opportunity

On the loess plateau, in front of the imperial tent, Empress Fushou sat in the middle, with nobleman Song Du on one side, and Tang Ji and Cai Yan on the other side.

A pottery cauldron was hung on the bonfire, the water was boiling and foaming, the maids took out the cooked horse meat, cut it into small pieces, and put it on the plates in front of everyone.

"Eat it, eat it while it's hot, it won't taste good when it's cold." Fu Shou smiled lightly and raised his hand.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Song Du bowed and saluted.

"Thank you, Queen." Tang Ji and Cai Yan also saluted, took up the plate, picked up the horse meat, dipped it in some sauce, put it in their mouths, and chewed it slowly.

"Sister-in-law, eat more." Fu Shou rolled up his sleeves with one hand, picked up a piece of meat with the other, and brought it to Tang Ji. "I heard that the information provided by my sister-in-law is very important to win this time. If my sister-in-law is a man, I will sit in front of His Majesty at this moment and celebrate with the generals."

Tang Ji said indifferently: "The empress speaks seriously, and my concubines dare not be. This battle can be won because your Majesty is not chaotic in the face of danger, the ministers are well-planned, and the officers and soldiers are attentive, which has nothing to do with the concubines."

"Sister-in-law is being polite." Fu Shou picked up another piece of meat and brought it to Cai Yan.

Cai Yan quickly took the meat, put down the plate, left the table and knelt down to thank him.

"Madam, you don't have to be formal, this is not a palace." Fu Shou said with a slight smile.

Cai Yan said softly: "The sage said, sincerity is in the middle, and the outside is formed, so a gentleman is cautious about independence and dare not go beyond the rules. He also said that sacrifices are as if they are present. Although the body is not in the palace, the rituals should not be forgotten."

Fu Shou sighed softly, put down his chopsticks, and reached out to support Cai Yan. "Madam's words are embarrassing. Since the imperial court went west, everything has been chaotic, and there are not many people who can behave like Madam."

Tang Jidai frowned slightly, swallowed the meat in her mouth, and put down the bowl and chopsticks. "Thank you Queen for giving me the meat. The concubine is already full, please leave first."

Fu Shou said in shock: "Sister-in-law, how can you be full after just a few bites?"

Tang Ji said lightly: "The concubine is small, please forgive me." After finishing speaking, she bowed politely, got up and left.

Fu Shou looked embarrassed, he wanted to have a fit, but he didn't want to lose face in front of Cai Yan.

Cai Yan did not expect this situation, and was in a dilemma.She thought for a while, and thanked her: "Thank you Queen for giving me the meat. I just got out of trouble, and I shouldn't eat too much meat. I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it. Please leave."

Fu Shou was in a bad mood, and waved his hand embarrassingly, signaling Cai Yan to take it easy.

Cai Yan left the table and went to the small tent beside him, but he didn't see Tang Ji.When I came out, I saw a figure like Tang Ji in the distance, so I walked over and took a closer look under the moonlight, and it was her.

"lady?"

Tang Ji turned around, saw that it was Cai Yan, and beckoned to Cai Yan to come closer.

Cai Yan walked over and bowed to salute. "Madam, please forgive me, my concubine is not..."

Tang Ji smiled silently, took Cai Yan's hand, and stroked it gently. "It's okay, I come from a humble background, and I have the name of eunuch, how can I be compared with the Langya Fu family who has been a master for generations. And in her position, some things have to be done, she is also accustomed to it, and it is unintentional. I don't blame she."

Cai Yan took a look at Tang Ji, pondered for a moment, then turned to look at the brightly lit Chinese army tent in the distance. "Actually, what the queen said has some truth. Madam is a man, if she is not a woman, she can sit in front of the emperor at this moment and celebrate with the generals."
