Chapter 204: Enemy Situation
Everyone rested, and Su Tiancheng was no exception.
In the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, everyone spent time outside Susong City, there was wine and meat, but it was not allowed to drink more, let alone alcoholism, everyone missed their relatives, cursed the rogues, and caused them to not be able to reunite with their families during the Spring Festival.
Zeng Yu couldn't return to Anqing Mansion City, he was beaten with twenty boards, and he couldn't ride a horse for a short time.
In fact, the sergeant is still merciful, and the sergeant of the law enforcement team is drawn from the middle of the Jiangning County government, and they are all veterans in playing boards.
Zeng Yu's buttocks looked bloody and blurry, but it didn't hurt the bones, which can only be regarded as a skin injury, and after a few days of recuperation, there is nothing to do. If they were really ruthless, Zeng Yu might die.
Su Tiancheng forced himself to rest, and when he arrived in Susong County, he needed to think about too many things every day, not only how to deal with the rogues, but also to deal with the officials of Anqing Mansion, including the commander of An Qingwei and others, which was very annoying.
It is very important to preserve physical strength, the rogue is used to running, and his whereabouts are uncertain, only by resting well and recuperating can he ensure that he has enough momentum when he rushes to kill.
To conquer the Liukou, you must be completely annihilated, even if the conditions are not ripe, you must kill the leader of the Liukou, otherwise, it will drive away the Liukou, and in his opinion, it will also be a failure.
One of the biggest benefits of recharging is the reduction of casualties.
No one likes war, war means bloodshed, it means losing brothers who share life and death, but this is a turbulent era, and Su Tiancheng must face all this.
In the middle of a daze, Su Tiancheng felt the sound of hurried footsteps, and when he woke up, Xiong Zijian, Sun Yuankun, Liu Shiliang and others looked in a hurry. They all came to the door.
Wang Dazhi, who was loyal and waiting, had already woken up.
Everybody came in.
Liu Shiliang began to report.
"My lord, the scouts have found out about the situation."
"What's the situation, tell me quickly."
"The subordinates were reluctant to wait, and they went to Yingshan County and Luotian County in Huguang, and the distance between the two places is not far. Luotian County is heavily guarded, but Yingshan County is not prepared at all, and the scouts have found an anomaly in Luotian County, and there are large groups of people and horses moving, and the goal is to come in the direction of Yingshan County. ”
"Oh, you actually went to Luotian County."
"The subordinates felt that if the rogues wanted to invade Yingshan County, they must have come from Luotian County, so they arranged scouts."
"Not bad. Let's talk about the specifics. ”
"The specific situation, still in the process of investigation, when Lu sees such a large group of people, the scouts must be very careful, not to alarm them, according to the scouts, these horses are definitely not the army of the imperial court. It is certain that it is the rogue who has flowed to Huguang. The scout drew the atlas. ”
Oil lamps had already been lit in the house.
Liu Shiliang spread out the album.
"The black arrows are marked by the rogues, the red dots are the location of the scouts, the red dotted line is the official road, and the black dotted line is the trail. The number of people and horses who are rogues are all on the small road, not on the official road, and the number is estimated to be more than 10,000. ”
Su Tiancheng looked at the picture carefully, with the red dotted line and the black dotted line. All point to the location of Yingshan County, above the black dotted line, a coherent black dot, completely in the direction of Yingshan County. This shows that the Liukou is moving quickly towards Yingshan County.
"Scout reconnaissance, how many sergeants are waiting in Yingshan County."
"There are only sergeants from the inspection department waiting in the city, yesterday was the Chinese New Year's Eve, the county has been suspended, most of the sergeants from the inspection department have gone home for the New Year, and it is estimated that there are no garrison sergeants in the city."
Su Tiancheng stared at the map and gasped.
Today is the first day of the first lunar month, at such a time, attacking the county seat, is the best choice, in Yingshan County, there are no sergeants waiting, relying on the city wall, it is impossible to support for a long time, once the city is broken, the Liukou can get a large number of supplies.
He looked at the map, in his mind, quickly calculated the time, the scout from Luotian to Susong, one person and two horses, at least one day and one night, during this time, Liukou advanced a lot of distance, Luotian County to Yingshan County, but one hundred and five miles, according to the time calculation, Liukou is likely to have arrived near Yingshan County.
"General Sun, I don't think it can be delayed, the goal of the Liukou is to target Yingshan County, gather all the horses, set off immediately, and go to Yingshan County, it is impossible for the Liukou to have large-scale activities during the day, most of them are at night, we will set off immediately, and strive to rush to Yingshan County tomorrow afternoon."
Zeng Yu was helped into Su Tiancheng's room.
"Zeng Yu, this official and all the soldiers have rushed to Yingshan County, the scouts have detected the exact news, the Liukou is very likely to attack the county seat of Yingshan County, now, you can take more than 1,000 soldiers of An Qingwei and return to Fucheng, Yingshan County belongs to the jurisdiction of Luzhou Prefecture, and it has nothing to do with you."
Zeng Yu shook off the two sergeants who were holding him.
"Lord Su, although the subordinates were beaten with military sticks, but they were convinced, in the past two days, the subordinates saw the soldiers led by the adults, the military discipline is strict, that is, the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve and the first day of the first lunar month, and they did not forget to get up and train at the right time, the subordinates are ashamed of themselves, look at these brothers under their subordinates, lazy and lazy, they are indeed not qualified to command the battle, the adults decided to go to Yingshan County to exterminate the Liukou, since the subordinates obey the command of the adults, of course they must obey the orders, if the adults look down on the subordinates and these brothers, I will leave immediately. If the adults can use it, the subordinates are willing to be the strikers. ”
Su Tiancheng looked at Zeng Yu and nodded slightly, this is a soldier, obey orders, and respect the strong.
"Okay, the courage is commendable, and he is worthy of being a soldier of the imperial court, but I want to remind you that the intelligence detected by the scouts is more than 10,000 rogues, and our current strength is less than half of the rogues, so it is very dangerous to go."
Zeng Yu's face flushed.
"Don't say that, my subordinates are not afraid of death."
Maybe it was stimulated, Zeng Yu was a little speechless.
"Okay, according to your opinion, An Qingwei's brother is familiar with the terrain and can be used as a forward to open the way, but you have to remember that all actions are under command, and you must not make decisions without authorization, otherwise the military law is ruthless, and I just want to save your life, it is impossible."
"Don't worry, on the battlefield, you will absolutely obey orders."
Sun Yuankun has already begun to dispatch and command.
But in half an hour, close to 3,700 soldiers, all of them were packed up.
On the other hand, An Qingwei's sergeant was still in a hurry to clean up.
Zeng Yu reluctantly supported, standing beside Su Tiancheng, his face flushed again.
After half an hour, everyone cleaned up, and Sun Yuankun looked at Su Tiancheng.
"Brothers, we are going to exterminate the Liukou, this is three hundred miles away from Yingshan County, we must rush to Yingshan County tomorrow afternoon, and then I will ask Master Su to give a lecture."
Looking at the unusually neat sergeant standing there, Su Tiancheng spoke loudly.
"Brothers, today you are going to start the war, at least more than 10,000 people, we will face a vicious war, I once said, all our brothers, to do not abandon or give up, this sentence, it is easy to say, but it is not so easy to do, it takes every baptism of blood and fire to achieve, before going out, I need to emphasize that the trust between brothers is the most important, any mustard, will lead to the most fatal consequences, so, no matter what you are in the middle of your daily training, What kind of grievances and hatreds, but on the battlefield, you are brothers, brothers, and mutual assistance and care are the most important. ”
"On the battlefield, the sword is ruthless, there will always be dead and wounded, if there is a brother unfortunately killed, your parents are my parents, I will support them for the elderly, your family is in trouble, I should do my best to help, now, all the soldiers, write down a note, which can be clearly stated, there is still any wish to be fulfilled, don't feel embarrassed, although boldly write it, this note, kept in the barracks, the wish of the fallen soldier, I will help him to complete."
After Su Tiancheng finished saying this, he waved his hand, Deng Hui and the others, commanding the sergeant, moved the table and brought paper and pen.
More than 100 sergeants sat down, holding brushes in their hands, to help with writing.
Sun Yuankun immediately commanded the sergeant, went to the table in turn and began to speak, and the sergeant began to record.
A sergeant with a flushed face looked a little overwhelmed, Su Tiancheng walked up to him and motioned for the sergeant who was about to record to stand up.
He sat down and spoke to the sergeant with a pleasant face.
"You say, I write, just say what comes to mind, don't have any worries."
The sergeant was stunned for a moment when he saw Su Tiancheng personally helping him write, and soon, he knelt in front of Su Tiancheng.
"Adults, the little ones are desperate to kill the enemy, don't dare to ask for anything."
Su Tiancheng hurriedly helped the sergeant up, patted him on the shoulder, and turned to open his mouth to everyone.
"Brothers, don't have any worries, we are all born to our parents, raised by our parents, what are we living for, is it just for the war, no, I am waiting for today's battle, it is for my parents, wives and children to live a good life in the future, to be able to have dignity and dignity, if we can't do this, why do we want to fight, it is the duty of our soldiers to protect our family and defend the country, but bloodshed and sacrifice always need to be recognized, if we are killed, my parents and family will not be taken care of, Just ask him who else will gallop on the battlefield without worrying about it in the future. ”
"The sacrifices of the brothers must be recognized, the family must be taken care of, I, Su Tiancheng, will do what I say, and I will never break my word, otherwise there will be five thunderstorms."
Zeng Yu looked at this scene, and his body trembled a little.
Su Tiancheng is a scholar, he is so careful, he can think of the follow-up things, think about An Qingwei's sergeant, where is there such treatment, it is good to be able to eat a full stomach, let alone take care of his family.
Thinking about the previous battle for command, his face turned red again.
Su Tiancheng did not reject An Qingwei's sergeants, they also came up and dictated their wishes. (To be continued.) )
