Chapter Ninety-Eight, I Have a Clever Plan to Defeat the Enemy
Shan Minglei has been in the Inspection Department for more than a month, and his understanding of Chen Yue is getting deeper and deeper. In Shan Minglei's view, Chen Yue's methods are vicious, and he kills hostile people when he says kill, such as Li Chang Zhao Li; Chen Yue has a cunning personality and is used to fooling others with things that do not belong to him, for example, Zhao Li's field is usually disposed of by the government, but Chen Yue uses it as a bait to fool the young people in Xishan Town into joining the army; Chen Yue will buy people's hearts, and from time to time he will take out a little food to help the poor, and the people of Xishan Town and even the slaves left behind by the original Zhao are all praising Chen Yue; Chen Yue is generous, has a long-term vision, and spends money and food every day, all of which are used on the more than 200 soldiers under him, but he himself does not do anything special, and his food and clothing are almost the same as ordinary soldiers.
This is a person with great ambitions, and it can be seen from the fact that he knew how to cultivate the family to establish power when he first started, and this is also a capable person, who can become a nine-grade inspector in a short period of time from the son of an ordinary military household, and has pulled up a team of two hundred people, and he can't do this without skills.
In Shan Minglei's view, Chen Yue has the basic qualities of a careerist, but to say that Chen Yue is a person who is loyal to the country and the people, Shan Minglei is the first to disbelieve it.
But it is precisely such a person who is worthy of his own follow, and he may one day really be able to become famous and proud of the world!
"My lord is loyal to the country, and his subordinates admire him very much." Shan Minglei casually praised, "But with the meaning of adults, we want to have a hard anus with Mantar?" ”
The Inspection Division only has more than 200 recruits who have been trained for more than a month, with such strength, if he really resists the Mantars, then Chen Yue is not so simple as being arrogant, but dizzy. However, Shan Minglei didn't think that Chen Yue would be hot-headed and faint, so he must have other calculations.
"Who said you were going to have a hard anal!" Chen Yue said with a smile, "The Manchu Tartars are in the light, we are in the dark, the Mantars are not many, we also have more than 200 soldiers, plus our soldiers are all locals, familiar with geography, and the location is advantageous to me, why can't we have a battle with the Manchu Tartars?" ”
"However, our soldiers have only been training for more than a month, and even if we fight with the same number of Mantars, I am afraid that there is no chance of victory." Yang Zhengping said with some concern.
"Of course, there is no chance of winning in a frontal battle, but who said that in a war, you must fight head-on, sneak attacks, ambushes, traps, as long as you choose a good battlefield and choose a good time, there is no problem in winning a battle." Chen Yue said confidently.
Damn, although I haven't led soldiers or fought in a big war, but I have countless bloody anti-Japanese war dramas in my mind as support, can't I still beat hundreds of Manchu Tartar cavalry? Chen Yue is confident that as long as he designs his tactics well, there is no problem in winning a battle.
It is easy to suppress bandits, but it is not as great a credit as cutting off a full Tartar head to exterminate a hundred bandits. Besides, the bandits in the mountains are all bitter, even if they are exterminated, how much oil and water can they have, the Mantars are different, they have looted all the way, I don't know how much wealth they have robbed, and they can make a windfall by defeating the Mantars in Fangshan County!
Looking at Chen Yue, whose eyes were shining, Yang Zhengping sighed worriedly, but since Chen Yue had already made a decision, he could only obey and cooperate.
Sure enough, he is a natural adventurous person, if such a person does not die halfway, he will definitely do something big, I like him more and more, Shan Minglei looked at Chen Yue, who was full of confidence, and showed a satisfied smile.
......
On the east side of the original inspection department's yamen, two mountains sandwiched a gallop road, the narrowest part of the gallop road can only allow a carriage to pass, the mountains on both sides of the road are not too high, but the rocks are craggy, looking extremely steep, the snow on the mountain has melted, only the top of the mountain is covered with a little snow.
The road is about three miles long, and out of this road, the road becomes much wider, and the mountain gradually becomes gentle, and gradually enters the plain.
Chen Yue commanded the soldiers, pulled the two tiger squat cannons up the mountain, hid them behind a boulder, and then personally calculated the elevation angle, gave a general range, and let the two gunners Chen Goudan and Li Daniu test fire. This is the advantage of curved guns, which allow the shells to bypass obstacles in front.
"Don't be afraid, there are still more than 30 miles away from Fangshan County, don't worry about the sound of the cannon being heard, you must adjust it well to ensure that the cannon shoots on the road ahead." Chen Yue said to the two gunners.
"Are you really going to Fangshan County to seduce the Mantars? Wouldn't it be too risky? Yang Zhengping is still a little worried.
"It's a bit of an adventure, and the Tartar's riding and archery skills are very powerful, and being able to escape their pursuit is the most important thing, so I decided to let me go and lure it myself." Chen Yue said.
"It's better for me to go, you're the leader of an army, you can't leave here easily." Yang Zhengping said in a firm tone.
"In the whole army, you and I are the ones who can really fight head-on with the Mantars, and I don't worry about you going alone. Besides, the arrangements here have been made, and the main points have been explained, so it's the same whether I stay here or not. Chen Yue thought for a while.
The main point of this battle is to introduce the Manchu cavalry into this gallop road, and then gather and annihilate it, the plan is very thorough, but the most important thing is whether the Manchu cavalry can be lured over.
Out of the gallop is a gentle plain, full of Tartar horses and arrows, and it is the most dangerous outside the gallop. It is a full thirty miles from Fangshan County to here, and it is not so easy to escape from the Mantar pursuit at such a distance.
Chen Yue didn't worry about Yang Zhengping going alone, so he had to go in person.
Everything here was arranged properly, and then the two tiger squat cannons were test-fired, and the loaded projectiles just covered the entire gallop road, Chen Yue instructed Chen Ping to have three general flags, and quietly told them that they must restrain the team, lie in ambush on the mountain, do not move, and don't tell the soldiers about the battle with the Manchu Tartars first. Before leaving, Chen Yue told the soldiers that it was just a training, and he was afraid that they would know the truth and be nervous, so he should wait until he lured Man Tartar over and then talk to them.
Then he and Yang Zhengping left here with five nights of non-acceptance, and rode a war horse to gallop out of the mountain.
"My lord, I suddenly remembered one thing, if we win this battle, it's fine, if we lose, I'm afraid that the Mantars will take advantage of the situation to enter Xishan Town, so we must inform the people in the town so that they can be prepared."
Yang Zhengping suddenly remembered a question, and urged the war horse to catch up with Chen Yue, the two war horses galloped side by side, Yang Zhengping said loudly to Chen Yue.
"Don't worry, I have handed over this matter to Shan Minglei, and he will handle this matter well." Chen Yue replied, then urged the war horse and galloped down the gallop.
Yang Zhengping nodded, Ah Yue is getting more and more secure.
