Chapter 451: There's nothing wrong with being careful

There is no doubt that it is not so easy for a tentative attack to turn into a full-scale attack, which requires the advance deployment of the whole army, and the other 45,000 men to attack the huge camp Zhou Wen did not dare to let the troops go too deep. Once the follow-up troops can't keep up, there is a danger of being besieged out of touch, no matter how unbearable the combat effectiveness of the Baiyue people is, such a danger is not something that Zhou Wen dares to take.

About two miles later, the sound of the camp was sounded, and the troops that had entered the Baiyue Walled City because of the large number of shacks slowly retreated, until they completely withdrew from the walled city, and this tentative attack ended here.

When Lu Zhe's army completely retreated, the chieftains and tribal leaders of Baiyue finally finished arguing, and they were more eager to leave here, but they also knew that they must be prepared, including cutting timber to make rafts, waiting for the arrival of Minyue boats, and selecting people to be the troops of the palace.

Of course, the troops who stayed behind the palace could not stay alone because of mutual suspicion, so it was inevitable that Ouyue, Minyue, Nanyue and other chaotic tribes would have some people.

Perhaps out of some guilt, the Ouyue group of the Song Dynasty would have the most people left, and he himself decided to stay as the main general of the palace army.

This decision caused Kai Mingsen to fall into a state of some kind of suspicion, and Su Wuzhu felt that it was inappropriate, so both of them objected.

Kai Mingsen is afraid that the Song Palace's surrender is fake, once the palace's troops surrender, what is the difference between leaving the palace's troops and not leaving the palace's troops?

Su Wuzhu is out of another kind of psychology, there are really not many people with a little foresight and prestige among the Baiyue, although this time the Northern Expedition is like this, but it is obvious that no one in the Baiyue can do better than Yihu Song.

A failure is nothing, although this failure has made Baiyue bleed a lot, but it has already shed so much blood, and it is possible to lose the rare far-sighted translator Song among Baiyue, Su Wuzhu feels that this Baiyue is really going to end.

"I'll stay." It wasn't without hesitation when he said this.

Only the weak will want to huddle, because once you don't huddle, you will never be able to live. At the same time, in the stage of life and death, selfishness should be temporarily abandoned, and if it is only infighting when it is about to die, even if it can live, it will definitely become mortal.

It is not great that Su Wuzhu voluntarily stayed in the palace, but that Kai Mingsen obviously did not believe that the convener of this northern invasion translated Song and let Kai Mingsen stay, even if Kai Mingsen himself was willing to be Su Wuzhu, then only Su Wuzhu himself stayed.

What kind of bullshit is this! It's no wonder that the Baiyue group has been around for hundreds of years and is still like this, it's nothing more than that there are too many idiots like Kaimingsen, and there are too few people like Yihu Song.

Lu Zhe, who was far away in the capital level, was always paying attention to the development of the battle situation, and they were about 100 miles away from the battlefield here, and the fast horse could come and go back and forth for seven hours by means of transfer.

The troops are very smooth to complete the rotation of the main general. The Baiyue people shrank strangely, and Zhou Wen was cautious after taking over the military power, and even if the information was slightly delayed, it did not cause Yan Zòng to be disjointed.

"Zhou Wen is too cautious, and he is also a little slow to use the troops." Lu Zhe didn't have too much extravagance, as long as the troops in front were not defeated and could block the Baiyue people, then even if the task was completed, he couldn't expect every appointed general to give a surprise like Sima Xin.

In general. A force that has risen for a short time will always have such and such shortcomings, and the explanation of the literary and artistic point is that the background is not enough, and the congenital lack or something.

As a military advisor, Kuaitong was thinking about why the Baiyue people would shrink strangely. His eyes were originally not big, but when they narrowed, they became even smaller: "Baiyue...... I'm afraid it's infighting? ”

Although it was a hesitant tone, Kuai Tong's gradually tightened face was obviously seven or eight points sure of his guess, and he looked at Lu Zhe and said, "You can take advantage of it." ”

Exploit? Divide and disintegrate or something. There has never been a lack of these strategies in the military history of the Chinese people, and many times they have been used in this way to disintegrate powerful opponents, and the most famous one recently is the Li Mu incident of the famous general of Zhao State. accelerated the pace of Qin's domination of the world. To achieve the best military victory at the lowest cost, Kuaitong's duty is just that.

Then again, the military advisor didn't have such a position before, it was an official position that Lu Zhe "invented" after continuing to lead, and Kuaitong only figured out what a military advisor was in recent days, and gradually entered the state that a military advisor should have.

"Then take advantage of it." Lu Zhe doesn't care, no matter how you look at this battle, the difference is just how many Baiyue people can be eliminated, since Kuaitong is gradually entering the role, I want to play...... Well, if you want to put your military talents to good use, then you might as well give it a try.

Kuaitong immediately stood up: "That post will go to the battlefield first." After walking a few steps, he came back: "Lord, what promises can the office make?" In addition, please also ask the Lord to let the translator take away. ”

Yi Hu Ze, a guy who is about to be forgotten, he was captured by Lu Zhe in the middle of the Battle of Yiling and the Battle of Jiangling, his identity is the brother of Yi Hu Song, he has always been raised by Lu Zhe as a pig, and he has been consumed early and become a waste, he was supposed to play a role in the attack on Lingnan, and now Kuai Tong feels that it is useful to use his own division and disintegration, so take it away.

The only thing Lu Zhe thought about now was to wait for Luo Shao's troops to come over quickly, so as to arrange the follow-up deployment, and then go to the battlefield in person after the arrangements were made.

The war situation was developing well, and there were clear goals before the war, and there were gradually fewer things to worry about, so it became natural for Lu Zhe's mentality to relax. In fact, you must be relaxed when you should be relaxed, otherwise you should drive yourself crazy if you don't break down all the time.

On the morning of the second day after Kuaitong's departure, the scouts reported that a large army was approaching in the northwest, and almost as soon as the scouts returned, the liaison officer sent by Luo Shao also arrived at the camp.

Luo Shao's army arrived in Changsha County after a long march of two months through forests, rivers, and mountains, and when they set out from Ba County, there were 180,000 men, and when they arrived at Ziping Yuan, there were less than 140,000 left.

"More than 40,000 people who disappeared lost more than 10,000 people on the way, and the rest were left in Linyuan to recuperate." Luo Shao was much more haggard than Lu Zhe had seen before, and his face didn't know what was going on, leaving a terrifying scar, and the scar was obviously scratched by the claws of the beast.

Wu Liang, Yi Jian, Diao Ding and other generals who followed Lu Zhe from Yiling, they came to Changsha from Ba County and the condition was not very good, I heard that Yi Jian was also poisoned during the march, because there were sorcerers in the subdued Baiyue who were in the process of emergency treatment to leave a life.

There are many mosquitoes, beasts and poisonous snakes in the jungle, as well as poisonous miasma, swamps and other natural traps, when Luo Shao and others raided Ba County from Cangwu County, there were about 250,000 people when they set off, because they needed to open roads and build roads, and only about 200,000 were left in Ba County. But didn't they return the same way they came, and how could they still have such losses on the road they had built before?

"It's about winter......" Lu Zhe weirdly remembered that there was such a song, and he was sure that the attrition was due to the season.

It is related to the season, in fact, it has more to do with the forest, it is destined to be impossible to build a good road in the forest, and under poor conditions, it is to cut down trees to clear a road that people can walk, and the other is to build a bridge in the water or something.

But it's a forest, even if it's not in the spring when everything is recovering, as long as the road in the forest doesn't go for a month or two, it will definitely change a lot, and then there are some beasts that don't hibernate in winter to destroy, unless it's a cement road or something, otherwise there is not much difference between building a road and not building a road.

"It also has something to do with fatigue, the army has not undergone effective rest for nearly five months, either in combat or on the march, and many people's bodies have collapsed." Wu Liang gave another explanation.

Lu Zhe believes that after all, the generals are all like this, can they still hope that the condition of the soldiers will be better? But understanding is understanding, he is the master of one side, and as long as the subdued Baiyue people have no signs of rebellion, they don't take the lives of the attached Baiyue people very seriously, so they ask: "Can you still fight?" ”

Luo Shao hesitated a little, the troops were really too tired, if it weren't for the respite from Linyuan City, Cangwu County, this army would have collapsed a long time ago. However, although Lu Zhe he saw was using a question, his expression was obviously already up to his mind, so he could only say helplessly: "The Lord has sent something, but he only serves death." ”

Lao Yuan was transferred from Ba County, there must be a reason for the need for this army, no matter what the reason Luo Shao knew very well that he could not refuse, once he refused and did not talk about the fate of those Baiyue people who were attached, all his previous efforts would be in vain.

"Hehehe......" There was a burst of laughter, Lu Zhe was very satisfied with Luo Shao's answer, he even stood up and walked over and patted Luo Shao's shoulder to show his intimacy: "Don't be so nervous, you don't have to go to the battlefield, you just need to guard the main roads, and you can rest and recuperate during the period." ”

Does Luo Shao want to be flattered?

Lu Zhe was obviously relieved when he saw Luo Shao and added: "The Lian clan, the Huang clan, and the Yong clan in Changsha, these three clans are also attached, and you should pay attention to them if you stay behind." ”

Luo Shao, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, raised his heart again: "Return to the verdict? ”

Lu Zhe didn't trust the wall grass very much, he only planned to go to the battlefield with the patriarch of the three clans and a small number of troops in the three clans, so he should be careful or be careful, if there is a mistake here, it will be called a failure. (To be continued......)
