Chapter 53 53

On the Qiyue front, Tian Dan received a letter of appointment from Qi Xiaobai.

Tian Dan looked at the letter of appointment: "I will not live up to Duke Qi Huan's expectations of me!" ”

"I am willing to obey Tian Houye's dispatch!" Sun Bin said on the side that Sun Bin had come down from the position of commander-in-chief, but he was still a general, and Tian Dan had become the commander-in-chief of the whole army of Qi and Yue.

"The first thing I have to do after taking office is not to attack the Vietnamese army, but to integrate the Qi army, and integrate our Jiaodong Army, Lubei Army, and Yanzhou Army together!" Tian Dan said to everyone.

"What does Master Hou mean by letting the army completely merge together?" Zhang Heng was stunned, looked at Tian Dan and asked.

"That's right, not only are these three legions fused together, but their salaries are also the same and the same amount!" Tian Dan said to Zhang Heng.

Because the Yanzhou Army is a reserve army, their military salary is lower than that of the Lubei Army, and the Yanzhou Army is issued after the war, while the Lubei Army of Qi State is issued every month, and the Jiaodong Army belongs to the autonomous army in the Jiaodong region, and his military salary is issued by the Jiaodong region itself, that is, Jiaodong waits for its own supply.

If according to Tian Dan's meaning, that is, the salaries of the three armed forces are paid together for the central financial system of Qi State, and the salary of military salaries will be the same, and the salary of the Yanzhou Reserve of Qi State will be as much as that of the Lubei Army of the Standing Army.

"This Yanzhou Legion is just a reserve, how are they qualified to pay as much as my Lubei Legion? And you also let you Jiaodong Army's military salary be distributed for Qi State, this Qi Huan Gong won't agree, right? You are creating a financial burden for Qi Guo! Zhang Heng said to Tian Dan.

Indeed, if this is done according to Tian Dan's intentions, Qi's military spending will increase greatly, and the cost of this war will also increase.

Guan Zhong watched the quarrel between the two in silence.

"What's more, my Lubei Army has been guarding the frontier, what is he doing in the Yanzhou Reserve? Farming, being a trader, whatever, what qualifications do they have to pay as much as the salary of my Lubei Legion? Zhang Heng said unconvinced.

"Whether it's the Lubei Legion, or the Jiaodong Legion, or the Yanzhou Legion, aren't they all fighting for the Qi State at this time? Aren't they all fighting the enemy? Since they are all fighting for the Qi country and fighting for the Qi country, why can't they take the same money? Tian Dan looked at Zhang Heng and said.

"As for you saying that my Jiaodong Army will also return to the Qi State to pay military salaries, what should you do? My Jiaodong Army is now also fighting for the Qi State, and our Jiaodong has always been a vassal of the Qi State, fighting for the Qi State, and paying tribute to the Qi State every year. Tian Dan glared at Zhang Heng and said.

And Guan Zhong smiled slightly and said: "Duke Qi Huan has already granted all the affairs of the army to Hou Ye, Hou Ye can do whatever he wants, and I think Hou Ye is right, fighting for the same Qi country, you should take the same money, this is nothing!" ”

In fact, it was Guan Zhong who plotted to merge the three armies for Tian Dan, and it was Guan Zhong who also paid the military salaries, and his purpose was to merge the three legions into one legion.

The three legions are too scattered, so Guan Zhong wants to unite the three legions so that the strength will be stronger!

In this way, the strongest combat effectiveness of the three most legions can be brought into play, of course, Guan Zhong has another reason, in order to better annex the Jiaodong region in the future!

"Everything is up to the marshal!" Sun Bin said on the side.

And Zhang Heng saw Guan Zhong say this, although he still wanted to refute it, but he didn't continue, although Tian Dan is the commander-in-chief, everyone knows that the most powerful person in the entire military camp is this Guan Zhong, Guan Zhong wrote a letter to Qi Huan Gong here, that is who he wants to kill, who he wants to recall, who he wants to recall, who he wants to recall.

"General Zhang, although I know that you are very unconvinced, if we get a lot of military salaries, do you say that the brothers of the Yanzhou Army who fought with us on the front line of the battlefield will be convinced? Everyone is for the Qi country, not to mention that I didn't say that I would lower the salary of the Lubei Legion, but just increase the salary of the Yanzhou Legion! Tian Dan looked at Zhang Heng and said.

Zhang Heng was silent and said: "You are the marshal, everything is up to you!" ”

Tian Dan nodded, and then announced the new policy in the barracks, and after the policy was spread, the happiest thing was the Yanzhou Army, and they all shouted Long live Tian Dan......

"Okay, don't be too happy, there is still a big enemy ahead, we must be prepared to defend and prevent this Li Shou from invading again!" Tian Dan said to the soldiers.

These days, Li Shou has been leading the Vietnamese army to attack the positions of the Qi State from time to time, fortunately, the fortifications made by the Qi State are good, although the invasion of the Vietnamese army has caused casualties to the Qi army, but it is not very large......

Back in the camp, Tian Dan looked at the generals and said: "It's not a way for us to keep defending like this, if we keep defending here like this, maybe the Chu army will arrive at Huiji, and we won't even take Pengcheng, and then the Chu army will come to help me fight Pengcheng, and at that time it will be a shame to be embarrassed, not only for us, but also for Qi Huangong!" ”

"It's easy to attack, but how do we attack? You've also seen how tough these Yue dancers are, and confronting them head-on is suicide! Zhang Heng said to Tian Dan.

Tian Dan nodded silently, he agreed with this Zhang Heng, at present, Qi State's regular attack was undoubtedly a suicide attack.

Now the Qi army also relies on the four squares to fight with the Vietnamese army, but the four squares are defensive formations, if the Vietnamese army does not attack, the four squares will not be able to play his effect.

It is also because of the square formation of the Qi army, so these days with the Vietnamese army, it did not cause too much loss, but the Vietnamese army suffered a little loss.

Although the quadrangle can deal with this Vietnamese army, but in general this is a defensive formation, which can only be defended here.

"We might as well attack at the beginning, although this Yue Dancer is strong, but it is only suitable for field battles, if we attack strongly, this Yue Dancer will not be able to exert an effect!" Zhang Heng said again.

And Sun Bin on the side said: "Okay, can you still go to attack the city now?" The Vietnamese army has already set up their barracks at the gate of Pengcheng, always thinking about fighting to the death with us, what is the use of talking about this now? ”

Since the defeat of the Qi army, the Vietnamese army has set up its military camp outside Pengcheng, preparing to defeat the Qi army in the field, so it is impossible to attack the city, and only by defeating the Vietnamese army in the field can it be possible to capture this Pengcheng.

"Don't argue, everyone, General Sun didn't expect this Yue dancer to be so brave at that time, otherwise General Sun wouldn't have thought of luring the Yue army out to fight with it!" Tian Dan heard that this Zhang Heng was actually blaming this Sun Bin.

As the head coach, he had to persuade the two of them.
