Miao Kui, who originally thought that he would not have much success in his life, came here to beg for food like a lost dog, suddenly found that there was still a way to go, and there was still a chance to defeat those who once looked down on him, harmed himself, and misled the country and the people.
This kind of joy of rebirth cannot be described in words, he did not take too long to persuade Wang Shi on Mondays and Sundays to take office, and became the chief instructor and commander-in-chief of the factory protection team.
As for the suspicion of raising private soldiers to plot rebellion, I didn't consider it at all, he used to be a staunch defender of imperial power, and whoever rebelled was in a hurry, even if he had the grace of knowing the horse.
But after this ordeal, the idea is completely reversed, and I hope that someone will rebel, and whoever rebels will be willing to follow whomever he wants, and it will be even more perfect if this person is the king of horses.
"Then why are you still willing to go to the north to fight the Tanguts, and stand aside and watch them kill the emperor and the court, wouldn't it be better?" What has become of Sichuan, Hong Tao can only listen, Miao Kui is not the mastermind, and what he did cannot be wrong.
"It's not for the court, it's for the adults!" Miao Kui's outlook on life and values were destroyed in the man-made accident on Youzhou Road, and after arriving in Sichuan, they were rebuilt by Wang Shi and them, which was similar to the effect of being brainwashed.
"This king has arranged an important task for you, which is more important than going to Lanzhou to relieve the siege." After asking all the questions that should be asked, Hong Tao began to make up his mind.
There are more than 4,000 musketeers in Sichuan who have been trained for more than two years and have experience in small-scale combat with the local Tibetan people, as well as a systematic military industry.
"As long as you let me go into battle to kill the enemy, everything is up to my lord's orders!" As the saying goes, those who are close to ink are black, Miao Kui followed Wang Shi and Zhou Ri to learn badly, and the words are very good, but they also add a prefix.
"Kill the enemy, and lead the army alone. This time, the Tangut people invaded the south with great intentions, not only to invade the south but also to move westward. This king is lacking in skills, and he can't save Liangzhou if he can save Lanzhou, once Liangzhou is lost, even if we sweep Xingqing Mansion away, it will be a loss-making business. You rushed back to Jiangling and returned to Fengjie with the second batch of ammunition, and took this royal official to go north out of Xihe Road and enter Ganliang Road with the transfer of manpower. If Liangzhou can be protected, it will be protected, and if it can't be protected, it must also hold Wusheling and Mawei City, and the enemy cannot be allowed to continue to move south. ”
In addition to food supplies, Wang Jiu also had battle reports brought back from near the border by the Shanchuan Supervision Institute, although they couldn't get too close to the war zone, they could also give Hong Tao an idea of the general battle situation.
Originally, the reinforcements of the King of Qi and the Qin Fenglu forbidden army led by the Yao family were also quite numerous, adding up to more than 100,000 people. The two armies marched together, King Qi went out of Zhuo Luocheng for the Western Route Army, and Yao Jia went out of Huizhou for the Eastern Route Army. The two armies are 300 miles apart, and there are Lanzhou defenders in the middle, so it is said that the defense capability is still quite strong.
But for some reason, the Western Route Army suddenly suffered a defeat in Zhuo Luocheng and had to retreat to Lanzhou in a hurry, while the Eastern Route Army did not move much in Huizhou. In this way, it will not have a big impact on sticking to Qinfeng Road, but the flanks of Liangzhou and Wusheling will be exposed.
The Western Xia army could follow the road of heaven from Lanzhou to Jisang City, and there was no danger to defend along the way, and after taking here, they would be able to face the Wusheling Fortress.
Lanzhou City was rebuilt in the ninth year of Yuanfeng, Hong Tao felt that although Zhao Maid was defeated for the first time, he would not be so wasted that he would not even be able to fight the city defense battle, and the top priority was not to save Lanzhou but to save Ganliang Road.
Liangzhou City, Suzhou City, Ganzhou City, Wusheling City, Mawei City, Huangzhou City, one is stronger than the other, without the new army to defend the Western Xia people will not be easy to gnaw, if the rescue is timely, the loss will not be too great.
Miao Kui is not good enough to play political struggle, but he is a very qualified general, who can judge the situation on the battlefield and have the courage and courage, and is also familiar with the tactics of the new army, and three or four thousand musketeers will not be less powerful than ten thousand new troops in his hands.
Letting him follow his ass with musketeers as a convoy is not only a bit overkill, but also prone to conflict with the forbidden army in the interior. It is better to divide the troops into two ways to block the passage of the Western Xia people's westward and southern invasion, and force them to either retreat or fight a decisive battle with themselves.
Musket cannons like the scene with a lot of people the most, and the more people the better. Defeating the main force of the Tangut people in one fell swoop is crucial to his next move, no one has ever been to Xingqing Mansion, and it is too brain-consuming and too dangerous to play hide and seek with the enemy's main force in a completely unfamiliar environment.
"The last will obey! Just a little worried about Ganzhou. If the Tangut people could not go south, they would definitely march west along the trade route, and the defenders of Ganzhou were not numerous, and they were afraid that they would not be able to resist the siege of the army. ”
It is not resistant to leading the troops to save Ganliang Road, but the number of troops in his hands is not large, Ganliang Road is vast and sparsely populated, and the distance between cities is very far, so if you can take care of Liangzhou, you can't take care of Ganzhou.
Thinking of the city that he had fought and built with his own hands with the horses was going to be devastated, Miao Kui couldn't bear it, and he wanted to protect one more.
"Don't worry about Ganzhou, there is a false force, and the more enemy troops come, the faster they will die. By the way, bring a message to Mrs. Zhou, let her wait for the family law to serve, and Wang Shi, that little bastard! ”
Ganzhou, Hong Tao is really not worried, and even hopes that the Western Xia army will besiege Liangzhou to no avail and go to Ganzhou first, so that the entire Ganliang Road will be completely safe.
"The last general is still not worried about something, the adults don't have much ammunition, and if they encounter a difficult enemy, they will not be able to last." Since the coach is so confident in Ganzhou City, he naturally has already made arrangements, so Miao Kui doesn't ask much.
But he still didn't feel at ease, the ammunition he brought was only enough for two large-scale battles, and once the new army could not advance quickly and was dragged into the rhythm of a war of attrition, then the fate of these 10,000 people would be miserable.
"Put your heart in your stomach, in front of the muskets and artillery, no matter how brave and good the army is, it will not last for half an hour, and no one can stop this king if he wants to run. However, the matter of ammunition does need to be paid attention to, you try to bring as much as possible when you go north, this king will not be supplied from the rear, you can rush all the way to Liangzhou to find you. ”
Miao Kui did not bring too much ammunition, and there were more than 3,000 people in the new army who didn't even have muskets, so they could only go to Weiqiao Town to get some steel crossbows to make do. But this is not a big problem, Jiang Erlang also carried a lot of ammunition on board when he came, as long as he did not have a long-term confrontation with the enemy, he did not have to worry about logistics.
Will anyone be able to stop the offensive of the Forces nouvelles? Hong Tao thinks there shouldn't be. In history, it is not uncommon for cold weapon armies to use terrain and weather advantages to win hot weapon armies, but they all have very coincidental harsh conditions, and they really will not meet it.
"Take care, my lord!" Miao Kui had no problem, hugged his fists and gave a salute and walked out. It can be seen that he is trying his best to stabilize his body so that the lame leg is too obvious, but unfortunately the physical defects cannot be made up for by relying on the spirit.
A good general who has made great contributions to the country, because he wants to help the court train a stronger army, but he was crippled, where is this Nima, sometimes the pig teammates are really powerful, and they can do what the enemy can't do.
"Uncle Miao is a big loss!" Wang Qi looked at Miao Kui's back and couldn't help but complain.
"If you don't listen to your father, that's what will happen!" Wang Da also persuaded Miao Kui not to return to the imperial court at the beginning, but of course he felt uncomfortable with this result. But she couldn't tell whether she hated her indisputability or lamented her misfortune, so she simply took Wang Qi to anger her in irritability, and this kick was solid.
"If you move your hands and feet again, don't blame me for being heavy!" Wang Qi is a young man of twenty-five, and he must have at least one child in the people, and he is very dissatisfied with the eldest sister's behavior of restraining children, but the psychological shadow of his childhood is still there, his bare mouth is hard, and he doesn't dare to move half a finger.
"What's wrong with kicking you! Kick what's wrong with you! Daddy asked you to marry the thirteenth sister, why did you refuse to agree? If you don't listen to your father, sooner or later you will be unlucky, and when the time comes, you will cry blind and no one will help you! ”
It is said that the eldest brother is like a father, but in fact, the eldest sister is no different from being a mother. Wang Da has been playing the role of the eldest sister since he was a child, and he is very serious and proud, and he is stricter than Hong Tao to his younger brothers and sisters. If you don't fight back, you can't just talk back, and the authority of the eldest sister does not allow the slightest provocation.
"I ...... I have the ability to let my brother-in-law marry the thirteenth sister back, why don't you bully me! ”
Wang Qi has also been a very obedient and honest child since he was a child, and he will not take the lead in opposing the authority of the eldest sister. However, there was at least one thing that he resolutely refused to obey, and that was his adoptive father's suggestion to marry Wang Thirteen.
