Chapter 488: Han Xin vs. Chi You

Wulong City, Council Chamber. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Sunlight shone into the hall and cast spots of light. In the changing light and shadow, a military discussion related to the fate of Shanhai City is being carried out intensely.

Ouyang Shuo was putting his vision of the war zone into practice, and raised his head and said, "Sun Bin! ”

"The last general!"

Sun Bin was in a wheelchair, his hands clenched into fists, his expression was excited, and his face even flashed a trace of redness due to excitement. Sun Bin didn't expect that the first general to be the prince would be him.

In comparison, Bai Qi is the oldest in the army.

The sun shone on Sun Bin's face, pale and ruddy.

Ouyang Shuo stared at this disabled and determined general, and said in a deep voice: "Ben Hou has decided to set up the Lingnan Theater, and you will serve as the commander of the theater. The Lingnan Theater, as the name suggests, is strategically oriented to the entire Lingnan Province, including Qiongzhou County, within the operational scope of the Lingnan Theater. ”

"In the Lingnan Theater, the Blind Tiger Regiment, the Qiongzhou County Garrison Division, the Leizhou County Garrison Division, the Zhaoqing County Garrison Division, and the Zhenhaicheng Garrison Division, a total of one field regiment and four garrison divisions, with a total strength of more than 120,000 troops. At the same time, the first formation of the newly formed Jiaozhou Fleet was also under the unified command and dispatch of the Lingnan Theater for the time being. As for the first formation of the Yashan Fleet, it is still under the unified command of the Military Affairs Administration for the time being. ”

The transfer of local garrison divisions and regiments to the command of the theater is a new change in the army after the establishment of the theater. With the increase in the number of garrison divisions, the Military Affairs Administration is simply unable to control each garrison division and regiment in place.

Instead of this, it is better to assign the garrison division and regiment to the theater within the jurisdiction for unified command.

In addition to the garrison divisions, the naval divisions within the jurisdiction are also included in the war zone, which means that in the war zone, all arms of the water and land coexist. As a result, the requirements for the commander-in-chief of the theater are very high.

Within the territory, at present, there are only three people, Bai Qi, Sun Bin and Han Xin, who have this ability.

Ouyang Shuo chose Sun Bin because he naturally had his considerations.

First, Sun Bin started from Qiongzhou County, and most of the Tiger Ben Legion was stationed in Lingnan Province.

Therefore, in terms of geographical location, Sun Bin is the right person.

Second, the needs of the war situation.

Bai Qi first ruled out that his style of using troops was to conquer cities and conquer cities and kill decisively. The frontal battlefield of blood and fire is the fateful place of Bai Qi.

In the most fierce place of the battle, there will always be the figure of the killing god Bai Qi.

Han Xin, who uses soldiers like a god, is also suitable as the commander of the war zone. It's just that after all, Han Xin has just joined Shanhai City, and he has only tried his hand on the battlefield of Zhaoqing, which is not enough to convince the public.

Therefore, Ouyang Shuo chose Sun Bin.

"Xie Junhou promoted!"

Sun Bin clenched his fists again, and his voice had calmed down. He could feel that there were many kinds of burdens on his shoulders.

The Lingnan Theater, in addition to the local defense, the core is to deal with the [Lingnan City-State] in the east. Even the [Shonan City-State] in the north is within the defensive range of the Lingnan Theater.

In addition, there is also the lonely territory of Zhenhai City, which needs to be guarded at all times.

Compared with the two, the 120,000 army does not seem to be very large.

"The Theater Headquarters is located in Tianshuang City. The structure of the High Command is based on the structure of the Military Affairs Administration, and consists of four divisions: the Military Intelligence Division, the Combat Readiness Division, the Military Justice Division, and the Operations Division. The members of each department, some of whom were transferred from the Military Affairs Agency, set up the framework first. At the end of the year, the graduates of the Army Lecture Hall will be replenished in place. ”

According to Ouyang Shuo's assumption, in addition to the commander of the theater, the theater should also be equipped with a military division. It's a pity that in addition to Zhao Kuo, there is no suitable military advisor in the territory for the time being.

And Zhao Kuo wants to preside over the Operations Department of the Military Affairs Administration, and he absolutely cannot be transferred.

As a result, the post of military division in the Lingnan Theater can only be temporarily vacant, and the position is vacant.

The establishment of the theater command is the core element of the theater. With a fixed headquarters, the tradition of having to wait until wartime to temporarily transfer various units will be ended.

In the future, the entire Lingnan battlefield will be under the responsibility of the Lingnan Theater Command. Whether it is the movement of troops, the supply of materials in the later stage, the formulation of operational plans, and so on, the theater command will carry out the implementation.

Of course, the Military Affairs Administration still has the right to command and guide the theater command. Ouyang Shuo wanted to establish an efficient command system, rather than let the generals support their troops and stand on their own.

In particular, in the Military Judge Advocate General's Department, all military judges are assigned by the Military Affairs Department and have independent law enforcement powers.

"The defense of the eastern front of the territory, please leave it to you!"

Ouyang Shuo, finally instructed Sun Bin again.

"I will live up to the trust of the prince!"

This sentence is the highest promise made by the military generals of Shanhai City to the prince.

Ouyang Shuo nodded, turned his head to look at Bai Qi and Han Xin, who had been silent, and said, "Pure defense is not the style of our Shanhai City. After stabilizing the eastern defense line, we will be able to free up our hands to clean up the two major forces of Chiyou City and Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. ”

In his words, Ouyang Shuo was domineering.

Bai Qi and the others also looked calm. They are all people who have experienced strong winds and waves, what kind of changes have not been seen, what kind of dangers, they have not been traveled.

Regardless of Hong Xiuquan and Chi You, what unseemly deeds they have reached. In the end, it is necessary to rely on strength to speak, and it is not so easy to defeat Shanhai City.

For Bai Qi and Han Xin, Ouyang Shuo also has a clear division of labor.

"General Bai Qi!"

"The last general!"

"The general led the 2nd Division, the 4th Division and the newly established 5th Division of the Longxiang Army to return to Lianzhou County and stationed in Mulan Fortress. The war with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom in the north was handed over to the general under unified command. ”

At the beginning, Bai Qi was the commander of the territory of the Northern Battalion. Now, if he returns to his old position. For Mulan Fortress, Bai Qi is very familiar.

"Please rest assured!"

Ouyang Shuo nodded, and then said: "General, remember one thing, the war with the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom will temporarily take a defensive position. The most important thing is to ensure the safety of our ally, Lingxi City. Therefore, the general's return this time is to strengthen the linkage between the two armies. When necessary, the Luo Shixin division can be sent to Lingxi City to reinforce friendly forces. Please remember one thing, Lingxi City, there is no room for mistakes. ”

Mulan Fortress, Steel Fortress.

On the walls of the fortress, there are only three bows and eight oxen bed crossbows, which are equipped with more than 100 frames. Ouyang Shuo is confident that even if there are only four divisions stationed there, with Commander Bai Qi, he should be able to be impregnable.

Even if the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom increases its troops again, don't forget that Lianzhou County Garrison Division and the Second Division of the City Guard Division are still stationed in Lianzhou County.

The two major garrison divisions, especially the Lianzhou County Garrison Division, can reinforce Mulan Fortress at any time.

Ouyang Shuo didn't know who gave Hong Xiuquan the confidence to dare to attack the strongest fortress in China. Either way, let him hit his head and bleed.

Ouyang Shuo was most worried about Lingxi City.

It is precisely because of this that Ouyang Shuo will arrange for the Luo Shixin Division, such an ace division, to reinforce Lingxi City.

However, even with reinforcements from the Luo Shixin Division, in the face of the 200,000 troops of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Lingxi City was in danger. Not to mention, the other lords of Kunming County may also stab Lingxi City in the back.

Time is urgent, and Ouyang Shuo has not thought of a countermeasure for the time being.

After all, Shanhai City has to deal with several enemies, and its own strength is also limited. Being able to reinforce a division is already the limit of what Ouyang Shuo can do for the time being.

Now, Ouyang Shuo only hopes that Bai Hua can have a way to save himself. The overlord of Yunnan in her previous life should also shine with her dazzling light.

Bai Qi nodded and did not speak.

This killing god usually cherishes words like gold, but once he makes a move, he is a sea of blood.

In the battle of Zhaoqing, Bai Qi's plan to burn the city completely turned the tide of the war. Afterwards, Fan Zhongyan and other ministers secretly protested to Ouyang Shuo, accusing Bai Qi of being too murderous and disregarding the lives of ordinary people.

Not only Fan Zhongyan, Mencius and other Confucian people, but also accusations against Bai Qi, I am afraid that they are also constantly accused. It's just that Ouyang Shuo is not in the territory during this time, and they have no one to complain about.

Bai Qi's image in the civilian clique has plummeted.

"Cold-blooded butcher" is the title given to Bai by civil officials.

Where there are disadvantages, there are advantages.

In the army, Bai Qi's prestige is in full swing.

The name of killing the god resounded in the four fields.

It's just that the discussion of the outside world, whether it is good or bad, Bai Qi seems to be indifferent.

Ouyang Shuo knew that Bai Qi had his way, how could outsiders be able to shake it.

This Tao may not be the way of killing that the outside world misunderstands.

Killing is just a white appearance.

All the calculations of Bai Qi are in the service of war, and in order to win, there is nothing wrong with any means. He is like an artificial intelligence, on the battlefield, abandoning all his feelings as a human being.

All that remains is reason, complete reason.

It is precisely in this way that outsiders will feel cold in white, cold in the face, and even colder in the heart.

Someone once joked that Gaia is afraid that Gaia has more feelings than Bai Qi.

Ouyang Shuo disagrees with this. At least treat his family, Bai Qi is the most affectionate and sexual person.

The white coldness is loneliness, the incomprehension and loneliness of outsiders.

The master is lonely.

……

Finally, Ouyang Shuo looked at Han Xin. The small test of the battle of Zhaoqing, the characteristics of Han Xin's soldiers, has already begun to emerge, eclectic, and the grasp of the timing is wonderful.

This time, Ouyang Shuo will put a greater burden on Han Xin.

"General Han Xin, with you leading the Leopard Tao Legion, the Praetorian Guard Division and the Shenwu Guard, plus the Shi Wansui Division and the Mountain Pillar Division that have reached the edge of the 100,000 Great Mountain, to resist the Chiyou army."

For the [Lingnan City-State], for the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, Ouyang Shuo is guarded. But for Chiyou, it is a complete attack. Ouyang Shuo's purpose was to completely defeat the Chiyou army and occupy Wuzhou County.

It is precisely in this way that Han Xin led the most powerful of the three armies. All of them are composed of field armies, and there are aces such as the Praetorian Division, as well as veteran divisions such as the Shi Wansui Division.

Only by defeating the Chiyou army can the entire battle situation be revitalized.

Needless to say, it's an uphill battle.

You know, Chiyou's hole cards haven't been revealed yet. (To be continued.) )
