Wearing a county magistrate to build infrastructure

When Tang Zisheng entered the Northwest City, he saw wounded soldiers everywhere, so he knew that the situation in the Northwest City was not good. Fortunately, when he came here this time, Qingcheng's master heard that Qingcheng was preparing wound medicine for the soldiers in the Northwest City, and immediately took the medicine. The pharmacists rushed to prepare a lot of good medicines for trauma in the past few days, but they were not suitable for wounds cut by such sharp tools as knife wounds.

After handing over the grain, grass and medicinal materials to the quartermaster in Northwest City, he went to the commander's residence by himself. As soon as Shen Yiran and Yang Manlou came down from the city gate, the three met at the gate.

"Master Tang." Yang Manlou saluted Tang Zisheng. The young man who hadn't reached the crown had only stayed in Northwest City for a few months, but he had become mature and sharp, and he looked much more reliable than before.

"Well, what's the situation now?" Tang Zisheng rushed over immediately after receiving the news after the first defeat in Northwest City.

Because there were food, grass and medicinal materials accompanying them, the marching speed was not fast, and it had been more than ten days since the defeat in the northwest city, and they had just seen so many wounded. In the past ten days, there must have been another battle.

"It's not very good. Those barbarians fought too hard. They were pushed back ten miles in the battle the day before yesterday. I don't know when they will counterattack and fight again." Yang Manlou inevitably had a headache when he thought about the 10,000+ soldiers and horses blocked under the city. .

"How about the damage of the two armies?"

"Our army's injuries are more serious." If it weren't for being ruthless the day before yesterday, how could we drive away these embarrassments.

"How many people in the army can fight now?"

Yang Manlou didn't answer, but looked at Shen Yiran. How many people can fight depends on whether the general is willing to let the wounded and sick go to the battlefield.

"5000 people." Excluding the wounded soldiers, Shen Yiran lost 5000 more people than the foreign army, and not many of these [-] soldiers died.

But there were quite a few serious injuries, and forcing them to go to the battlefield was just to support the scene and tell them to die.

"I've heard about your several fights before. This time the commander of the foreign country is not an ordinary reckless general. He has ambitions and plans. Now our soldiers and horses are already at a disadvantage. If we want to win, we can only rely on outsmarting." Tang Zisheng took out a weapon This booklet, "I don't know the art of war, and I don't understand strategy, but sometimes I need to rely on my heart to play games when I think about fighting. You can see if there are ideas that you think can be used."

"36 Strategies?" Shen Yiran took it, and opened it carefully. The booklet is not thick, and it is said that there are not so many 36 Strategies, "Why not all?"

"Just watch it, I wrote this based on my vague memory." Tang Zisheng thought about it, thanks to the fact that when he was a child, the children's channel missed related 36 episodes of animation, one episode per episode, and watched TV in the countryside where there was no entertainment. It is Tang Zisheng's rare pleasure.So this booklet was compiled entirely by Tang Zisheng's hard work.

Shen Yiran looked over it carefully, and had to say that some of the strategies seemed simple, but they were actually extremely useful on the battlefield.If you can read the original work carefully, it should be more inspiring.

Tang Zisheng didn't bother Shen Yiran, but asked Yang Manlou, "Has there been any news from the imperial court?"

After all, it is Nanzhou that is causing chaos now. If an accident occurs in such an important place as Northwest City, it is impossible for the imperial city not to respond.

"My brother said that there was a commotion in the imperial city, and a group of people thought it was time to send troops, thinking that if they didn't send troops to fight at this moment, when the northwest city fell, Dayu would cease to exist.

One faction believed that troops should not be sent, fearing that the war in Nanzhou would spread to the imperial city, and the soldiers and horses in the hands of the prince went to the northwest city, and the imperial city would be finished by then. "

"Interesting remarks. I am afraid that General Jing will seize the throne, but I also hope that General Jing will guard the Northwest City. This is a good abacus."

Tang Zisheng sneered that many world nobles in the imperial city live too comfortably, making them forget who is responsible for such a comfortable life.

Yang Manlou bowed his head and remained silent. In fact, his father was also one of the two factions. The elder brother didn't say which faction his father was on.But he was definitely not happy with the general sitting in that position.

"Is there any news about Prime Minister Yan?"

"Prime Minister Yan is ill and has not been to court for several days."

sick?According to his temperament as a cheap father-in-law, if he really takes this matter to heart, he will try his best to find a solution even if he is dying of illness. Now that the court is in chaos, and he is ill at this time, I am afraid that he will not want to get involved in these matters.

But now the crown prince thinks that Prime Minister Yan is on his side, can the crown prince really make Prime Minister Yan so sick all the time?

"When did Prime Minister Yan start calling you sick? Did you show up when you said you were sick?" Tang Zisheng felt that Yan Cheng said he was sick for a very short time, and there must be something awkward in it that he didn't notice.

"It was the news that the Northwest City was defeated in the imperial city. The two factions in the court have been arguing endlessly. The crown prince could not make up his mind and asked Prime Minister Yan to call the shots.

However, Prime Minister Yan had been working hard for the government since the beginning of the Nanzhou War, and then fell unconscious due to the cold and direct burn. The crown prince went to see him once and asked Prime Minister Yan to recuperate from his illness. After that, no one came to bother him. "

"That is to say, Prime Minister Yan hasn't shown his face since the crown prince saw it?" Tang Zisheng recalled the matter of Nanzhou's edict, and there must be a master behind the crown prince.In this case, it will not be obvious that Prime Minister Yan is ill this time?

"Not bad." Yang Manlou nodded.

"No matter how severe the wind-cold is, it's been so long and it hasn't healed yet? I don't think it's because Prime Minister Yan is sick, but because the Imperial City doesn't want Prime Minister Yan to intervene, so they found a reason to put Prime Minister Yan under house arrest."

Prime Minister Yan would not let go of this matter, so looking at it this way, the claim of illness is more like the opinion of the prince.

Prime Minister Yan can be regarded as under one person and above ten thousand in the court.If he agrees to send troops, the prince cannot object.

Otherwise, the whole courtiers will be able to see that they are at odds, and the prince's painstaking efforts to maintain a good relationship between him and Prime Minister Yan may be self-defeating.

It would be a good thing for the crown prince to let Prime Minister Yan say he was sick at this time, and he would not be able to decide whether to send troops to the northwest city without being in the court.

"House arrest? Prime Minister Yan has been in the court for more than ten years, and his disciples are no less than those in the prince's party. What's more, Prime Minister Yan is also on the side of the prince. Why did the prince put Prime Minister Yan under house arrest?" Yang Manlou was puzzled, and Prime Minister Yan was amazed Talented, how could it be so easy to be controlled by the prince.

"I don't know the specific reason, but Prime Minister Yan didn't resist the house arrest. It seems that he followed the trend. Maybe Prime Minister Yan is no longer in the imperial city."

Tang Zisheng had a vague guess in his heart, maybe Prime Minister Yan just wanted to solve the current crisis in the Northwest City, so he followed the prince's wishes.

……

Yan Or, who was suspected of having intentions, is indeed no longer in the imperial city. The war in Nanzhou is slowly moving eastward from the general's mansion. So leaving Beijing now is the best plan.

"My lord, the soldiers and horses under our name have already set off for the Northwest City."

"Yeah." Yan or sat in the carriage, he had expected that this might happen to the Northwest City, he lived in the imperial city so it was not good for him to recruit troops wantonly.

But the surroundings of the imperial city are not small. Since more than ten years ago, he has been secretly searching for young beggars and nurturing them with care.

In the past two years, he has recruited many refugees into his hands for training, so that if something happens in Northwest City or Jing Huan, he will have soldiers and horses to support him.

-

In the northwest city barracks, Shen Yiran was rehearsing the way to attack on the formation map.

Looking at the evolution of the camp, Tang Zisheng thought to himself that there were many battles in history where fewer troops won more battles, and the gap in the number of soldiers and horses was even more terrifying than their current situation. In the Battle of Julu, Xiang Yu defeated Qin with 40 troops. With [-] soldiers and horses in the army, it can be seen that they are not without opportunities.

But for such a battle, the right time, the right place, and the right people are indispensable. They are lacking both the right time and the right place, that is, the right time and the right place can be used for a battle.

"The foreign coach has been lining up in the rear, and I haven't seen who it is until now." Shen Yiran put down the flag in his hand and said suddenly.

"what do you mean?"

Tang Zisheng understood that the coach couldn't see anyone, either because he couldn't show his face for fear of being discovered, or because his body didn't allow him to be a behind-the-scenes person giving orders.

The former is not necessary. Wearing a mask to cover your appearance on the battlefield can prevent people from discovering your identity.And unless this person is from Dayu, it is impossible for him to worry about his identity being discovered by them.

All can only be the latter, the commander behind the scenes may not be martial arts or physically weak, in this case the commander must hide behind, if so, they can use this as an entry point.

Shoot people first, shoot horses, and capture thieves first.

"But he is in the center of 10,000+ soldiers, so it is not so easy to capture him." Although Tang Zisheng thought that this method could indeed be done once and for all, it was actually very difficult to do.

Even if someone could sneak into the foreign military camp, it would not be easy to get close to the foreign commander's tent. Since the other party has this weakness, it is impossible not to prepare.

Shen Yiran lowered his eyes, that was indeed the case, even he dared not say that he could take the enemy's head out of a 10,000+ enemy army and retreat completely.

"However, just because we can't touch this coach doesn't mean we can't touch other people from other countries." Tang Zisheng was inspired by Shen Yiran's proposal just now.

Gentiles are different from Dayu in that they are composed of different tribes. The big tribes annexed and ruled the small tribes. The 15 horses certainly did not come from one tribe.It was a gathering of soldiers and horses from various tribes who surrendered to foreign leaders.

It is impossible to move the coach, but it is easy to move these tribal leaders when the rear is empty.

"But if our people want to enter the foreign grassland, they have to pass through these 10,000+ soldiers and horses. This plan is not easy to realize."

Shen Yiran thought about the terrain outside the northwest city. If he walked through the mountains, it would take too much time and it would be easy to get lost in the mountains.

What's more, there are 10,000+ soldiers and horses stationed here. If someone goes up the mountain to hunt, the probability of them being discovered is very high.

"Then let them retreat another ten miles?" Tang Zisheng moved back ten miles the place where the foreigners were stationed on the map. That place was a market exchange in the foreigners, which was equivalent to the city of Dayu. It is a good place to arrange for people to mix in with the Gentiles and go to the grassland tribes.

Shen Yiran frowned, thought about the strength of the troops, "Yes."

It is possible to retreat another ten miles, but their people mixed into foreign countries and went to the grassland to assassinate these tribal leaders, which is not a quick solution.

If by the time of their decisive battle, there were no major disturbances in the grassland, the plan would have collapsed.

"Apart from this plan, what other ideas do you have?" Shen Yiran believed that with Tang Zisheng's ingenuity, he would never give hope to a passive situation. This was at most only a part of Tang Zisheng's plan.

"Internal troubles correspond to foreign troubles. The forces on the grassland are not unified, and their enemies are not just us."

In fact, there is a more insidious method, which is to use the common people as threats.Regardless of whether the opponent advances or retreats, the opponent will lose, but Tang Zisheng still did not do so after all.

War is inherently cruel, and innocent people are involved, so what is the difference between him and those careerists.
