One hundred and two gamblers

The generals understood one after another, and with unprecedented excitement and confidence, they all hugged their fists and said: "The last general obeys the order!" ”

Li Rusong pursed his lips, looked at the atmosphere in the military tent, and suddenly felt a little frustrated. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

After the discussion was over, all the generals went down to prepare for the battle, and Xiao Ruxun left Zhao Hu and Chen Xie, who had different faces, behind.

"I didn't let you go to Yiju to earn credit together, don't you feel unhappy?"

Xiao Ruxun walked up to the two and asked softly.

"Don't dare."

The two spoke in unison.

Xiao Ruxun smiled and said: "You are my descendants, my cronies brought out, in the eyes of others, you and I are one, any preferential treatment and care I do for you will be infinitely magnified in the eyes of other troops, resulting in resentment and jealousy, why the Liaodong Army is very unpopular in Daming, including the reason why the regional discrimination of the Liaodong Army is too serious, they only look down on their own people and despise all other troops."

The other troops are not soft persimmons, the southern soldiers have quite strong Zhejiang soldiers and Miao soldiers, and the northern soldiers also have our Ningxia soldiers and Xuanda soldiers, which are not weak, who can be convinced? This principle is set on me now, it is the same, everyone's eyes are on me, everyone knows that this time the firearms troops have made great contributions, and the victory basically depends on firearms, the Ningxia soldiers and Zhejiang soldiers have made great contributions, and the cavalry has also made great contributions, so where are the Xuanda crossbowmen and Shandong gunners placed?

It doesn't matter once or twice, but every time it's like this, they will have complaints, the morale of the army will be weakened, and the army will not be easy to bring, as a chief general from the northwest, I can't take the interests of the Zhejiang soldiers and the Jurchen cavalry, that will only make the Zhejiang soldiers and the Jurchen cavalry doubly dissatisfied, I can only let you be wronged and wronged, leave our headquarters and Zhejiang soldiers with the greatest meritorious service this time, and leave the space to play to the Shandong gunners and Xuanda crossbowmen. ”

Zhao Hu and Chen Xie looked at each other, and some small muttering in their hearts disappeared, they were not the main general, and they had never served as the main general, I didn't know that the main general still needed to think about so many things, so they felt a little guilty for a while.

Xiao Ruxun stretched out his hand and patted the shoulders of the two, and said with a smile: "There are a total of eight legions of the Japanese Invaders, we can divide them equally, four on one side, no one is too much and everyone is not less, on this basis, it all depends on their own abilities, but as the main general, I must provide certain opportunities to each army, which is my duty as the main general." ”

Zhao Hu and Chen Xie also smiled, clasped their fists and saluted: "The last general will obey the order." ”

"Hmm."

After the two left, Xiao Ruxun sat back in the position of the chief general, sighed, Yuan Huang had been dealing with the paperwork beside him, and when he saw Xiao Ruxun like this, he smiled and said: "It is difficult for the general, it is even more difficult for the main general, the main general who does not help his own soldiers, the most difficult, the Ming court is divided into various factions and fights, and there are also various factions in the army, and it is not easy for anyone......"

"Fortunately, my descendants are not strong, most of them are from my family, and they can still be controlled by me, and the number of people is not large, so they can be arranged like this." Xiao Ruxun rubbed his temples: "If it is replaced by the arrogant generals of the Liaodong Army, Li Rusong will also have to compromise, if he is not good for the side line, he will be considered unfair by the side department, and if he is not good for the lineage, he will be regarded as turning his elbow outward, and he must not only win the war, but also take into account the interests of various local troops, alas, ......"

"It's true, the court is like this, the army is like this, the world is like this, the local plot is difficult to change, I'm afraid that the more in the future, such disputes will become more intense, and the villagers will form parties with each other to exclude outsiders, but not everyone has such a cautious and subtle heart as Ji Xin can be appeased in time, the old man is really worried......"

Yuan Huang put down his pen and sighed.

"These are still too far away, let's pay attention to the present, our army has not suffered much losses in this battle, this time I can return to the division to set up an ambush just to bring the wounded soldiers back to the rear for treatment and rest, and after the battle is replenished on the spot, then set off back to Pyongyang to garrison, discuss the next strategy, this big victory will not write a good report first, and then write a good report after cleaning up Kato Kiyomasa, and report the good news to the imperial court in one breath, and enhance the confidence of the imperial court in the main battle."

Xiao Ruxun picked up the pen and began to write the military order: "Yuan Gong, after this great defeat, the Japanese will lose no less than 30,000 soldiers, under such losses, do the Japanese still have the confidence to attack the north?" ”

Yuan Huang squinted his eyes and shook his head: "According to the old man's estimate, once they know that Konishi Yukinaga and Kato Kiyomasa have been completely cleaned up by our army, they will definitely have a fear of me, under the power of our army, they are afraid that as long as it is not a strategic point, they will give up directly, Hamgyong and Ping'an Erdo Needless to say, it is unlikely that there will be Japanese robbers in Huanghae Province, which is close to the front of our army, and Gangwon Province in the east is not a strategic place, so I am afraid that it will not be entrenched......"

"Under the fear of the Japanese invaders, they shrank their forces in order to protect themselves, and chose strategic points to hold on, which city did Yuan Gong think would become a place for the Japanese to gather troops?"

Xiao Ruxun asked directly.

"It's not Kaesong, it's Seoul, the old man judges, Seoul is the most likely, after all, Seoul is the capital of the Joseon Dynasty, and it is also the residence of the commander of the Japanese Invaders, where the big camp is, they will definitely defend Seoul, once Seoul is lost, the Waiko will lose their main stronghold, and their grain and grass transportation routes will also be cut off, and the situation will be very bad, so they will inevitably choose to defend Seoul."

Xiao Ruxun nodded, looked at the map, and his eyes fell on the location of Seoul: "After Kato Kiyomasa cleans up, the north of Seoul and the west of the Imjin River will no longer be able to stop the Japanese invaders of our army, then North Korea will be restored at least three times, and it can be stable for a while, providing us with more food, grass and horses, and we can also prepare for a decisive battle with the Japanese in Seoul, the more soldiers and horses they gather here, the happier I will be, and I will catch as many as I can!" ”

Yuan Huang remembered Xiao Ruxun's words before, and inexplicably, there was also a trace of expectation in his heart.

On October 31, the 30,000 Ming troops who had only rested for one day secretly returned under the leadership of Xiao Ruxun, and the 10,000 Ming troops who remained in Pyongyang City were divided into two groups and started a dramatic fake battle with each other.

Kiyomasa Kato may not be fully convinced that Konishi Yukinaga will really ask for help, but as a gambler, a gambler who is eager to make meritorious contributions, this kind of psychology will prompt his judgment to deteriorate, and as soon as the miserable state of Pyongyang City is confirmed, he will immediately leave all his worries behind and come to Uiju to fight the battle.

Xiao Ruxun pinned all his goals on this battle and the three Japanese.

He was right.
