Chapter 127 Shan Xiongxin returns to his heart

After half an hour of fighting, Liu Tong ordered to withdraw from the battle. After counting the casualties, it was found that the casualties were less than 50, but because the battlefield was not cleaned, there was no way to calculate the results, and Liu Tong did not know that they had caused Wang Renze's command to reduce the number of more than 4,000 people.

In fact, Liu Tong was afraid for a while when he recalled it now, he really didn't expect that more than 1,200 people could attack the enemy's more than 15,000 people and horses, and he could actually retreat with his whole body.

Xun Xiang was also very puzzled and said: "It is said that we are killing people and setting fires, and the losses caused to Wang Renze are not light, why didn't he send troops to pursue us?" ”

"It's not that Wang Ren doesn't want to chase, maybe he's worried that there are ambushes outside us, so he just lures him to pursue!" Liu Tong Xiang Xiang analyzed: "It is likely that it is precisely because of this consideration that Wang Renze did not pursue, of course, we set fire everywhere in the Zheng army camp, their losses are not light, I smell the smell of burnt grain in the air, it may be our brothers, inadvertently bumped into Wang Renze's baggage camp, Wang Renze's army must be busy fighting the fire, otherwise they will definitely drink the northwest wind!" ”

Xun Xiang said with a regretful face: "It's just a pity, there is no way to calculate this military merit, and we made a big disturbance in the Zheng army camp." ”

The military merits of the Tang Army are also calculated by decapitation, and the head of the enemy who is actually obtained can only be counted as military merits after the inspection of the army in the record room. However, less than 800 heads were brought back by taking advantage of the chaos.

Liu Tong frowned, and he turned to look at Han Dingguo, who had joined the army in the record room of the Wei Army. Han Dingguo looked at Xun Xiang and stared at him with an unkind face, and if he didn't say a word, he pulled out his knife and slashed people. Han Dingguo groaned: "Last night's chaos, all the soldiers of our Beiwei Army fought bravely to kill the enemy, with one block of ten, a total of 1,000 beheadings!" ”

Lookout let out a sound from his nose: "Humph"

Han Dingguo hurriedly changed his words: "Behead more than 1,500 levels!" Saying that, Han Dingguo looked at Liu Tong and said: "Deputy Lieutenant Liu Zuo, there can't be more, we only have more than 1,2......00 people, attacking more than ten times the enemy, and our own casualties are less than fifty, no matter how many we have, General Chen will not believe it."

Liu Tong coughed and said, "Then we will report the beheading of more than 1,500 levels!" ”

At this time, Xun Xiang spoke: "Deputy Lieutenant Liu Zuo, although we have won now, Wang Ren will definitely not give up, the first time we were just surprised, they were careless, and suffered a big loss." Next, we will definitely strengthen our defenses, and if we want to win so easily, I'm afraid it will be difficult. What should we do next, please show Deputy Lieutenant Liu! ”

Liu Tongyi was stunned, what should I do next? Of course, in addition to the 16-character key to guerrilla warfare, Chen Ying also taught him the six principles and five essentials.

The six principles are, the smallest sacrifice in exchange for the greatest victory; The second is not to destroy the enemy but to wear it down; the third is to dominate the enemy and grasp the initiative; Fourth, it is active offensive and rarely defensive; Fifth, it is erratic and impermanent; Sixth, the more it is behind the enemy, the easier it is to succeed.

The five essentials are to oppose the enemy's way, and do everything possible to deceive, the enemy advances and retreats, the enemy gathers and scatters, the enemy avoids the enemy, the enemy deceives the enemy, avoids the real and the false, and strikes the west; Don't try too much, as long as there are always small wins; Stand on the flanks of the enemy, in the rear and on the periphery of the circle, and not be attacked by the enemy; All actions must be swift, courageous, and resolute, and hesitation is tantamount to death; Pay attention to the use of sudden attacks, leaving no chance for the enemy to counterattack. The tactics and tactics that Chen Ying taught Liu Tong were actually from the military ideas of the later generations of General Li.

General Li's military thinking has a relatively high status among the senior generals of our army, and no one has surpassed him. Today, we will not analyze General Su's strategic thinking on the Great Corps, but focus on Su Yu's guerrilla warfare thinking. During the protracted war, Su Yu skillfully applied the 16-character formula for guerrilla warfare summarized by Zhu Mao during the Jinggangshan period (the enemy advances and we retreat, the enemy is stationed and we disturb, the enemy is tired and we fight, and the enemy retreats and we advance), and he created a set of guerrilla tactical thinking, that is, the "six principles" and "five essentials." ”

Of course, the last essentials were changed by Chen Ying. Originally, the fifth principle of General Li was to pay attention to the use of sudden white-bladed attacks, as soon as the bullet rang out, the bayonet would hit the enemy's belly. The reason for this principle was mainly that the conditions at that time were too simple, and the fool actually knew that no matter how well the bayonet was fighting, it was better to sweep under the light and heavy machine guns, and in the case of abundant ammunition supplies, this essential point could not be used as much as possible.

How to implement Chen Ying's strategy and tactics, Liu Tong has thought about it many times on the way all the way, but he always felt that many ideas were immature, and several of them had not been solved.

But at this moment, Liu Tong suddenly had no such worries at all!

Because Chen Ying's method has been proved to be a set of effective methods in the actual test. Then, as long as Chen Ying's strategy is executed, then it is enough to succeed.

"What are we going to do next? Take the initiative, of course! Liu Tong said with a smile: "At this time, Wang Renze is less than fifty miles away from Hangu Pass, and we have no way to attack Wang Renze anymore. The next battle will be based on the battle of the fortification, and our more than 1,000 men and horses will be useless, so we will break through the blockade of Hangu Pass and take advantage of the opportunity of the Yellow River to freeze and break into the eight passes of Luoyang. ”

From germination, rooting, and growth to growth, a seed needs not only the right soil, but also rain and sunlight. However, environmental factors are also very important, in fact, Chen Ying's original intention in founding the Beiwei Army was to create a mountain reconnaissance force to avoid accidents when his army marched in the mountains.

However, what Chen Ying did not expect was that under the command of Liu Tong, the Beiwei Army used the sixteen-character key to guerrilla warfare and the six tactical principles and five operational essentials of General Li to form the unique tactics of the Beiwei Army.

This is something that Chen Ying did not expect from afar, of course, this is a later story, so let's not mention it for the time being.

……

"Stand in line!"

On the north plateau of Hangu Road, on a high plateau about five miles wide, more than 2,000 people of the heavy tomahawk battalion of Wang Renze of the Zheng army who were captured were selected by two regiments and from the prisoners of Shan Xiongxin's old department, more than 200 strong men with a height of eight feet and can lift 200 catties of wooden stakes, and mixed into nine Modao regiments, a total of 27 brigades and 54 teams.

At this time, Chen Ying missed his old acquaintances such as Zhang Huaiwei, Duan Zhigan, Zhang Shigui, Luo Shixin, etc. Chen Ying did not have a particularly familiar general, so he proposed to Li Jiancheng to transfer Luo Shixin as the general of Modao and take over the helm of this elite heavy army. In fact, the most suitable candidate for General Modao in Chen Ying's heart was Kan Leng. However, now Kan Ling is not in Chang'an, the hoplite assault must be led by a fierce general, and Luo Shixin's martial arts and bravery are naturally enough, but in the Central Plains War, if Luo Shixin leads the hook and sickle lancer corps, he will achieve greater results.

Although it is organized into nine regiments, the Mo knife and equipment are still in Chang'an, and they can't be delivered for a while. Not only does the Modao Army need to be expanded, but the left guard under Chen Ying has led two of the five Zhichong Mansions to be abolished, and there are two and a half remnants, although there are still more than 2,000 troops, they no longer have combat effectiveness. Chen Ying thought about selecting young and strong prisoners and replenishing the vacancies in the battle losses of each guard rate and each Zhechong Mansion.

Chen Ying had more than 8,000 prisoners in his hands, in addition to more than 2,000 people drawn out by the Modao Army, there were more than 6,000 prisoners, and the physical fitness of these captive soldiers was not bad. Among the 6,000 captives, in addition to the wounded soldiers, about 4,000 soldiers could be drawn to supplement the various guards and factions. Let Chen Ying's subordinates not decrease but increase. Once the lightly and seriously wounded returned to the camp in the future, Chen Ying's four rates and eighteen Zhichong Prefectures could be expanded to twenty and more than 30,000 people in Shangzhichong Prefectures.

Chen Ying's first step is to do a good job in the psychological work of these soldiers who have surrendered to the army.

Li Tang was able to unify the world, in addition to the Tang Dynasty's ability to fight, which was also related to the Juntian system in the early Li and Tang dynasties. Chen Ying wrote the Tang Dynasty's policy of the Juntian system into vernacular, and then ordered dozens of literate clerks to publicize this policy among the army.

"Don't worry, General Chen is merciful and will not kill prisoners, of course you have to be honest and obedient. When this battle is over, let you go home! A well-spoken clerk introduced to the captives in the midst of the captive army: "As long as you honestly cooperate with General Chen to finish this battle, those who are willing to join the army will join the army, and those who are not willing to join the army will go home!" ”

"Homecoming" is a very beautiful word. But for these old ministers of Shan Xiongxin, it is an unattainable wish.

A soldier with a simple face in his thirties, "Go home...... I don't have a home anymore! ”

The clerk was stunned for a moment, and then said: "If you don't have a home, you have to go back, even if your home is broken, you will go back to your hometown." Since the Tang Dynasty sent troops to attack the Central Plains, the Central Plains will be surnamed Li in the future, and the Central Plains will be fought with iron in the future, and it will not be invaded again. Last year, His Majesty promulgated a benevolent government, and the counties of the Central Plains will have a comprehensive land tax within one year and a land tax halved within three years. After returning to his hometown, the government will compile a household register, grant land according to Ding, Ding Nan 80 acres of land, and you will tidy up the barren fields. As long as we survive this year, life will be better. ”

Another veteran rolled his eyes and said: "You also need seeds to farm, and you also need to plow cattle, we big-headed soldiers, our pockets are cleaner than our faces, and we don't have a big son, how can we farm?" ”

The veteran resonated with everyone, and the captives nodded in agreement.

The clerk added, "Well, you guys are still stupid. You can borrow from Datang Tongli Bank! ”

"Borrowing?"

The honest soldier looked sad and indignant: "In this life, I'd rather die than go to the money bank to borrow money." ”

Saying this, the veteran of Mo was in his thirties and actually covered his face and choked. In a choked voice, he babbled about his misfortune. He is a native of Qi County, Qingzhou, and his family was not bad back then, with land and two farming cows.

As the saying goes, people have good and bad luck, and there are unpredictable circumstances in the sky. In the eleventh year of the great cause, his father was seriously ill, in order to treat his father, he first sold the cow, and then the old father's illness worsened, in desperation, as long as he borrowed a loan of thirteen and five hundred yuan from the bank, but at the end of the year, the profit rolled, and it actually rose to more than two hundred and thirty, in order to repay the loan, as long as he sold the family land at a low price, and then sold the old house, and the daughter-in-law was also angry, ran back to her parents' house.

Later, the old father left. He was forced to ruin by loan sharks. In desperation, he became a Wagang army. Then there were several soldiers who had suffered from usury, and they all scolded one after another.

The clerk said: "You don't understand this, do you?" Our Datang Tongli Money Village is different from other money banks. You want to borrow ten yuan from other money banks, and they dare to charge you a hundred yuan or even more after a year, but this Datang Tongli money bank, the interest is dead, you borrow ten yuan, and after a year, you will pay back twelve yuan, and you don't have to pay back one more big son! ”

"And such a good thing?"

"Of course!

"Seeing that you are all young and have hands and feet, as long as you are willing to put in the effort, take advantage of this year's tax exemption, tide over the difficulties, and pay taxes for three and a half years, you can earn your belongings, and then ask for a daughter-in-law. Isn't the home going to be rebuilt? At that time, the ancestors will also smile under the nine springs. ”

Chen Ying's money bank was established in the past, and Chen Ying took advantage of this opportunity to start promoting his money bank. Of course, at this time, in fact, Chen Ying was already slowly implementing the money bank, at least in the left and right guard rates and the left and right division rates of his commander, Chen Ying had already begun to use his personal credit to promote the money bank.

After the seizure on the battlefield was converted into money, Chen Ying gave the soldiers some money tickets of different denominations and asked them to go to Chang'an City to exchange coins of the same value.

……

Chen Ying's propaganda to the captured soldiers naturally reached Shan Xiongxin's ears. Shan Xiongxin was stunned to hear it, 80 acres of land are divided, and tax exemption is granted for one year? Three-year tax cuts?? And 20% of low-interest loans? It's just a few words. But let Shan Xiongxin see another world.

Li Tang actually gave such a policy, the secretary's statement. In three or five years, we can really build a new home.

"Is this Renjun? Is this benevolent government? ”

The so-called benevolent monarch, the so-called benevolent government, Shan Xiongxin vaguely remembered that his father said when he was a child, Emperor Wen Yang Jian was such a person, but unfortunately it was a good time, but he had never seen it. Since he was sensible, the imperial court has been collecting taxes, collecting taxes, and there has never been a saying of tax exemption.

Suddenly, as if he had gained inexplicable strength, Shan Xiongxin roared with all his might: "Someone, someone, we ask to see General Chen!" ”
