Objectively speaking, Li Zhongyi's ability to command and fight in battle is indeed inferior to Yang Lie.

But the problem is that the seemingly inconspicuous deployments made by Li Zhongyi are all forward-looking beyond the millennium. Even Yang Lie, a military genius, needs to ponder for a long time before it is possible to comprehend his teacher's far-reaching layout.

The most intuitive example is that Li Zhongyi set up the Senate Department to control the power of military orders, and the Military Judge Advocate Department to control the power of supervision of the army.

In this way, the Li family's army, which was under the separation of powers in military administration, military orders, logistics and military law, was firmly held in the palm of Li Zhongyi's hand.

Since Li Zhongyi mastered Pinglu, he arranged for officers to be transferred to local areas, and the head of the capital was the pavilion chief, the team was appointed as the village leader, and the commander was the patrol envoy.

As a result, the military mobilization capacity of the entire Pinglu region has risen to more than 10 steps in an extremely alarming way.

Yang Lie waved the horsewhip in his hand, pointed to the orderly township army, and sighed: "50,000 male soldiers, you can get it in a few days, how strong?" Brother Hugh came to attack our Pinglu this time, and if he doesn't die, he will take off five layers of skin. ”

Qian Shude glared at Yang Lie in surprise, could it be that the sun came out of the west, Yang Lie said so many words in one breath.

"General Zhengbei, my wish is also." Yang Lie didn't look at the stunned Qian Shude, he was different from Zuo Ziguang, it was his long-cherished wish to fight for a better living space for the people of the Han Dynasty, and he didn't care about or meddle in politics at all.

Qian Shude, as an extremely important cavalry battalion commander, originally had a high degree of political sensitivity, and he carefully tasted Yang Lie's extraneous voice.

The more he was about to settle the Central Plains, the more Yang Lie needed to keep a low profile, and the more he couldn't interfere in military and political affairs.

Deputy Marshal of the Li Family, Li Zhongyi's eldest disciple, and the commander of the elite First Army, and was even granted the right to the front by Li Zhongyi, how could Yang Lie not be cautious and afraid?

Since ancient times, there have been few famous generals who have achieved great success, except for Guo Ziyi, who have died well.

Qian Shude patted Yang Lie's shoulder very understandingly, and whispered: "Bai Xing, you and I are both cautious people in words and deeds, and the Lord is a rare male lord for thousands of years. ”

Yang Lie saw that Qian Shude actually wanted to be crooked, and he was suddenly relieved, with Li Zhongyi's absolute control of the army, was it necessary for him to be overly suspicious?

According to the general mobilization order issued by Li Zhongyi, the township troops in Pinglu quickly assembled, and when Yang Lie arrived, 50,000 troops had been assembled on the outskirts of Qingzhou, and 30,000 township troops were still on the way.

Although they are all township troops, according to Li Jiajun's training outline, they are still divided into four levels, namely A, B, C, and D.

The township army is a compulsory soldier, cultivating when busy and training in leisure time, while the first-class township army is a standing army in the township army, with a small number, only 5,000 people

The first-class township soldiers received two cents of money per month, received the same training as soldiers, and participated in the maintenance of law and order patrols in the countryside except during the most busy agricultural periods.

The C-class township army, which has the shortest training time and needs the most busy farm work, generally does not participate in assembly operations in peacetime, and is only given 100 wen per month, which can be regarded as a barely subsidized family.

However, the military law of the township army is exactly the same as that of the regular army, and there is no difference, which ensures the consistency of military orders and the convenience of implementation.

On the way, the rain became heavier and heavier, and finally caused the situation that Li Zhongyi did not want to see, and the flood washed away all the roads ahead.

The whole army struggled through the mud, and the sacks that cushioned the wheels of the guns had been torn into strips of rags after repeated use.

Artillery is the great weapon of Li Jiajun's army, and it is also a magic weapon to blast through the front of the forbidden army, and Li Zhongyi cannot give up the 6-pounder bronze cannon anyway.

The commander of the artillery battalion forced Li Yongtang very badly, so much so that his temples turned white. Li Zhongyi saw this in his eyes, but he couldn't say anything, fighting the world, that is tying his head to the waistband of his pants and playing for his life, how can it not be difficult?

The most fatal thing is not only the muddy and difficult roads, but the loss rate of the war horses, which has reached an astonishing twelfth of them.

After all, war horses are livestock, not machines that run with refueling, and the torrential rain has not stopped, and the hay has turned into wet grass. The horse was not well fed and lost weight severely, not only could it not charge, but even the load of supplies was exhausted.

Li Zhongyi had no choice but to order to slow down his progress, however, the bad news sent back by the reprimands was really speechless.

From Kaifeng to Puzhou, the sky is cloudless, and the speed of the imperial forbidden army has reached more than 60 miles a day.

Li Zhongyi rode on the back of the bloody slaughter, looked at the advancing army under the rain curtain, and couldn't help but let out a long breath of turbidity.

Chu Xiong noticed that Li Zhongyi was in a bad mood, so he leaned over and whispered, "Master, the little one can trust Yang Baixing." ”

Li Zhongyi's heart moved slightly, Chu Xiong was an understanding person, and he saw that what he was worried about was not against the imperial forbidden army, but because Lao Chao Pinglu was stolen by Brother Hugh.

To tell the truth, even if the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses brought out by Li Zhongyi are all gone. As long as Pinglu's territory is still there, within three months, he can make a comeback.

Soldiers and civilians are the foundation of victory, and Li Zhongyi's assertion on this has always been regarded as the greatest military principle.

The foundation of the soldiers and the people is a solid base area, and in a strategic sense, Yelu Xiuge can be regarded as seeing Li Zhongyi's weakness and making a steady and ruthless move.

Li Zhongyi pondered carefully for a while, Chu Xiong's words were quite reasonable, Yang Lie was a military command genius. It is precisely because Li Zhongyi can trust Yang Lie that he will hand over the vital defense base to Yang Lie.

"Pass on my order, the whole army will stop the rapid march, and travel sixty miles a day instead, and simply have a head-on decisive battle with Hantong." Li Zhongyi decisively gave the order.

After receiving the order, the officers and men of the army couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, although they could rush under the heavy rain, but the physical exertion was too huge, and the most important thing was that the war horses fell ill one after another.

If there is one less war horse, the materials and equipment it carries will either be transported several times more manpower, or it will occupy the pack horse, but both the pack horse and the manpower are limited.

Since the weather is not beautiful, the torrential rain has not stopped, and even washed away the road, it is better to simply slow down the march, so that the sappers who built the bridge and paved the road can also have a good rest.

The pouring of heavy rain made Li Jiajun's tactics of quickly controlling and slowing completely soaked in the soup, and also brought completely different changes to the entire battle situation.

Threatened by the continuous flooding of the road, the direction of Li Jiajun's march was constantly corrected, and finally, when Li Zhongyi arrived at Wolong Ridge, Zhao Kuangyin had already led his army to occupy the commanding heights on the ridge. (https:)
