Chapter 460: Disappearing
Listening to Wang Ji's refusal to fight, and not to allow him to fight, Mu Bin was said to be confused, and asked rhetorically, "Then what are we going to do?" ”
"Do nothing, just wait and see. Unless the loyal and courageous man really wins more with less, we can send troops if we have the opportunity, otherwise don't use the army lightly, no one is easy to provoke. And as long as none of us help, we will be everyone's friends, so the Jiaozhi army is angry, they will not find us trouble, only look for the Min Wang family to open the knife, we sit on the mountain to watch the tiger fight, preserve the strength, how are they invincible. ”
These words came out, and it can be seen that Wang Ji is indeed planning for Mu Bin.
These words also said that Mu Bin kept nodding in agreement. Speaking of which, his Mu family has been loyal for generations, which can be seen from history, but the current situation is completely different from history because of the appearance of Yang Chendong. Only the emperor of the Ming Dynasty appeared two at once, and everyone said that they were orthodox, and Mu Bin didn't know who to listen to for a while, so who do you let him be loyal to?
Even if you haven't even figured it out yourself, it's better to hold your ground and wait to see the situation.
Wang Ji couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that Mu Bin really stopped thinking about doing it. He is now clinging to others, of course, he hopes that Mu Bin will be as strong as possible, which means that he will be safer and safer. It's just that he didn't know at all, this time he was completely blind, and everything was because he underestimated Yang Chendong, the loyal and courageous father.
Maybe Wang Ji's thinking is right, among the forces, Yang Chendong has few soldiers and no territory, so he should be the best to bully. But he forgot, if Yang Chendong was easy to bully, how could he rescue Yingzong Zhu Qizhen on the battlefield?
How could it be possible to repel the elite cavalry of Warat?
How could the increasingly powerful Yellow Bandit Army be wiped out in less than two months?
How could it be possible to make Zhu Qiyu of the Northern Ming Dynasty and Zhu Qizhen of the Southern Ming Dynasty both jealous?
The person who can do these things will not be a soft persimmon and let others handle it?
If you want to say that you underestimate the enemy in the shopping mall, you are likely to be destitute, but if you underestimate the enemy on the battlefield, it will cost you your own life.
Just like Yang Chendong's department, after coming out of Gaozhou Mansion, it was a mighty past Lianzhou Mansion and Siming Mansion. Just when everyone thought that he would bypass the north-west of Tran An Province and have a meeting with Nguyen Gen Vong's headquarters in Quang Nam Province, suddenly the mercenaries disappeared from everyone's sight.
The original vast team of more than 10,000 people completely disappeared like evaporated water vapor.
This news spread to the barracks of the Southern Ming Army, the Minwang Army, the Miao Army, the Mujia Army and the Jiaozhi Army in a very rapid manner.
"Gone? How is this possible? "Compared with several military camps, the most anxious and concerned about is the Jiaozhi military camp in Quang Nam Province Nguyen Genwang Division.
In the past few days, he has been ready for the next battle with the mercenary city. Even he gave the order not to defend the city and go out of the city to attack.
Although abandoning the fortified city and not defending it is tantamount to deliberately losing his advantage, but thinking that his strength is seven or eight times that of Yang Chendong, he still has this confidence.
But I never thought that everything was ready, and there was a sudden news from the front, Yang Chendong and the mercenaries he brought were gone, which made him feel bad at the same time, and hurriedly strode to the front of the sand table, and then stared at the vicinity of Siming Mansion, the news was interrupted here, and his eyes were naturally about to fall here.
Standing on the side, revealing a tiger with a tiger look on his face, it was the deputy general Hong Jin.
Unlike another lieutenant general, Nguyen Vinh Duong, who is the nephew of General Nguyen Genwang, has a natural advantage, and he can only rely on diligence and better performance to gain the general's approval. Just like before, when he led the troops to fight with Nanming, he performed very well, and more importantly, he was very obedient, so he got such a position.
Don't look at Hong Jin is very obedient, but he also has his own ideas, otherwise, just with his honesty, he will not be able to reach the current height no matter what. Under his observation, he noticed that when Ruan Gengwang's gaze fell on the vicinity of Siming Mansion, his heart moved, and then he said: "General, could those people go directly into the dense forest and enter Langshan?" ”
Hong Jin's speculation was exactly what Ruan Gengwang was thinking of now, and these words couldn't help but make his breathing start to get heavier. And at this time, another lieutenant general, that is, his nephew Nguyen Vinh Duong, stood up and said: "Impossible, they don't have the courage to enter Lang Mountain, not to mention that more than 10,000 people eat and drink logistics are very problematic, just say that it is already July, but the rainy season is coming, the weather is humid and hot, that is, our locals are not willing to stay in the mountains and forests at this time, not to mention snakes, ants, insects and tigers, etc., it is a dead word for an untrained army to enter there." Once the time comes, we can't see any way out. ”
After saying this, Ruan Yongyang seemed to feel that it was not enough, and added: "It is said that the loyal and courageous man who led the troops will not understand these truths, if he doesn't know these common senses, then I can only say that the opponent we face this time is too weak and not worthy of our attention at all." ”
What Ruan Yong Duong said is very reasonable, Cochin is located in the south of the Tropic of Cancer, and it is hot and rainy, especially from May to October, when it is rainy. At this time, many animal nests in the dense forest will be unsafe, making them go out in all directions, which is very dangerous.
The reason why it is very dangerous is that unless there are particularly experienced local elders, not many people are willing to enter the dense forest under such conditions and conditions, which is not much different from breaking through a ghost gate.
Not to mention an army of more than 10,000 people, once you enter here without the slightest understanding, any kind of situation may happen, and if you don't get one, it is normal to lose 60 or 70 percent of the non-combat personnel. In addition, if there is not enough logistical supply, no army will take the initiative to enter the mountains.
It is precisely under such a harsh environment that the population of Jiaozhi is not large, the army is not large, and the comprehensive strength is far inferior to that of the Ming Dynasty, but it is still able to be independent.
Seeing that Ruan Yongyang said so much in one breath, General Ruan Gengwang couldn't help nodding, and just when the other generals thought that he was thinking the same way, suddenly he said to the deputy general Hong Jin: "Immediately wait for An, enter the Lang Son area, and search for traces and evidence that they may enter." ”
The sudden decision made the other generals stunned. After hearing this, Hong Jin's body collapsed in an instant and said, "Yes, general, my subordinates will do it immediately." ”
Hong Jin went out to arrange things, and Ruan Yongyang in the hall said with a certain questioning tone: "Uncle, you don't really think that these mercenaries will be bold enough to go into the mountains and forests, right?" If that's the case, then we don't have to do it at all, most of them will die inside. ”
"Call me general, and I'm the commander here, I naturally know how to do it." Ruan Gengwang said in a reminding tone, so that Ruan Yongyang's mouth that originally wanted to continue to say something was half open there, obviously his uncle was angry.
The lord will be angry, even if you are his son, you have to restrain yourself, this is the army, without iron military discipline, it is impossible to win any battle.
Besides, Hong Kim immediately sent a team of 200 elite scouts to Lang Son, most of them were ancestors who lived in the dense forest, and many of them often went in and out of Lang Mountain, so it was only fitting that they could not have been sent to Lang Son to find out the news.
"You go and return quickly, and if you find anything suspicious, come back and report it immediately, this time it is not for you to find out where the opponent is, but as long as you can be sure that they have entered the Lang Son area, it will be a great achievement." That's how Hung Jin gave the scouts' orders. Then the two hundred horses ran out and disappeared.
......
Lang Son.
I don't know how many years old this mountain forest, if you have to describe it, the four words primeval forest are completely competent.
Especially now, when it has not been developed and polluted, there are so many mountains and forests and dense trees that ordinary people cannot imagine.
For example, when walking here, day or night, unless you find a vantage point, it is very difficult to see the sun, all because the density of the leaves is so large that it can completely block the sun.
For example, walking is often tens of meters, at most 100 meters, and recently less than 10 meters, you can see thick wooden trunks that two people can't hold together, or even thicker, and the length of the arms of three or four people can't be enclosed in a group. And there are many trees like this, so you can know how desolate and primitive this place is.
When Yang Chendong entered here with more than 12,000 mercenaries, he saw such a scene.
"Hey, the dense forest here is much denser than the one we encountered during training, and the trees are much thicker." Soon after walking here, Hu Mang's voice rang in Yang Chendong's ears.
Yang Er on the other side also cooperated with the feeling, "Young master, the roads here are muddy, and the temperature is so high, it's really not everyone who can stay, and now I finally realize your hard work a while ago." ”
It's no wonder that Yang Er would say this at this time, Yang Chendong hadn't seen outsiders for a long time on the grounds of assassination and poisoning, in fact, he had been secretly training the army in rotation, and the main subject of training was how to survive in the dense forest and how to better exert his strength.
At that time, many middle-level officers, junior officers, and even some higher-level officers did not understand this kind of training, and what to do with good training, especially during training, Yang Chendong deliberately chose some rainy weather and high temperature to increase the training, for which I don't know how many soldiers were injured, and even some auxiliaries and temporary auxiliaries did not persist at all, and were directly injured and quit active duty.
