Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Expedition (1)
Ding Chen couldn't understand why Jia Xu was clumsy.
Well, it's just clumsy!
Maybe he had a good reason, but Ding Chen had no intention of understanding.
Everyone has their own secrets, since he is unwilling to say it, he is willing to hide it, so why bother to make it difficult for others?
Ding Chen didn't even bother to think about it.
There is a way that the soldiers and horses have not moved, and the grain and grass go first.
This is true of 80,000, and so it is with 800.
Trapping the camp as an independent battalion is equivalent to detachment from the brigade.
In addition, Huaxiong did not want to see Ding Chen, and was even unwilling to let Ding Chen go to Xingyang, which increased the difficulty of trapping the camp.
Receive supplies of soldiers, distribute armor, and prepare food and grass......
Only then did Ding Chen realize that marching and fighting was not as simple as he imagined. Eight hundred soldiers also need to be equipped with sufficient people, otherwise it will not be possible to make the trip at all.
No wonder, Sun Tzu said: Soldiers, the country's major affairs!
This is only the action of 800 people, and it needs to cost people and money so much.
If it's 8,000, 80,000...... Ding Chen didn't even dare to imagine what kind of spectacular scene it would be.
"Lord, no."
Just when Ding Chen was anxiously preparing for the expedition, Gao Shun broke into the big tent.
"What's wrong?"
"The prime minister added two hundred people, which was a good intention.
The trapping camp has been training since two months ago, and it has become a tacit understanding. Now, the sudden increase of 200 new tials has become a burden, far from being beneficial. These newcomers didn't know the method of battle formation at all, and many of them were recruited temporarily, and they couldn't even hold their weapons steadily.
With such combat power, how can you get on the battlefield?
Can the lord explain to the prime minister that he will send these 200 people back, even if it is in exchange for 100 old soldiers...... No, fifty pawns are also good. ”
When Ding Chen heard this, he couldn't help but pat his forehead in fear, revealing a sudden look.
He really ignored this problem, forgetting that the trapping camp was formed on the basis of Nangong Guards, and he had been training for many days before.
What Gao Shun said is also reasonable.
A group of newcomers have not been trained and don't know how to fight at all, how to cooperate tacitly?
These newcomers, mixed in the trapped camp, will not work if they are not done well, but will drag down the combat effectiveness of the trapped camp.
But to go back?
Dong Min will not look good on his face.
After all, Ding Chen has no foundation, and he is already very embarrassed between the Bingzhou Army and the Liangzhou Army, if he offends Dong Min again, don't think about having a good life in the future. After all, Dong Min and Dong Shuying are Dong Zhuo's own brothers, how can they be offended?
"Lao Jia?"
Ding Chen couldn't think of a clue, so he looked at Jia Xu who looked lazy in the big tent.
Jia Xu half-narrowed his eyes and raised his head with an impatient expression.
"What's so difficult about this, since it is a new ding, he will set up an independent tun, set up a tun chief, and take care of the grain and grass.
Lao Gao sent a tiger and wolf soldier from the trapping camp as the tun commander, and used the tricks you used to train the Nangong guards on Xinding's body. If you go out left and right, there may not be a war for a while, and you can train them better than repatriation.
By the way, Ziyang is now a general in the army, how can he not have a personal companion by his side?
Hu Che'er can be a guard, but it also needs to be equipped with some pro-troops. Among the newcomers, if there is any unruly, the strong martial arts will be transferred, which can also give them one more expectation. When the time comes, these newcomers will be able to do their best. ”
When Ding Chen heard this, he was overjoyed.
Jia Xu's idea is indeed good, that is, it can solve the problem of the lack of combat effectiveness of the new Ding, and it can also increase their cohesion.
"Mr. Wenhe is really smart, according to what Mr. said."
Jia Xu was shocked, "I can't get used to your cunning appearance."
When he didn't have an idea, he was called 'Lao Jia, Lao Jia', and after he came up with an idea, he immediately became 'Mr. Wenhe', shameless. ”
Ding Chen was not angry, he just laughed non-stop.
He knew that Jia Xu was angry in his heart, and he was still resentful of himself for transferring him over.
But so what?
It's good if you can give me advice and solve problems.
"By the way, we will go on the expedition early tomorrow morning, and the grain and grass are not yet sufficient.
Lao Jia, I'll go and find Dong Gong again later, and ask for more grain and grass.
In these years, I don't panic when I have food in my hands. It seems that those of us who are raised by stepmothers can only be self-reliant and don't cause trouble. ”
Jia Xu pointed at Ding Chen, but Gao Shun laughed on the side.
"It's getting late, I'll go back first.
I'll come over tomorrow morning. Mao at the beginning of the army, Mao in the middle of the departure...... That's it, you all have an early rest tonight. ”
"Whoa!"
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Night is approaching.
In Cao's house, Sister Ah sat under the oil lamp and mended Ding Chen's clothes.
After dawn, the younger brother will set out on a long journey. This is also the first time Ding Chen has led troops to the battle, why is Sister not worried?
She mended her clothes and whispered softly.
Ding Chen listened carefully, and he was reluctant to give up in his heart.
"Sister, after I leave, Jia Qu will stay.
I have commanded him to protect you...... Luoyang is now a little complicated, you try not to go out, if there is anything, leave it to Jia Qu to do. ”
"Well, how could this be the case?"
Mrs. Ding sewed and mended the clothes, folded them and put them in the package.
"Xiao Chen, have you heard?"
"What?"
"The bones of King Hongnong were buried in the east of the city."
"There is no burial next to the tomb of the first emperor? However, this little emperor still has some affection for King Hongnong, and he actually built a new tomb. ”
"What is the newly built tomb, it is the tomb built for himself by Zhao Zhong, the regular servant, before his death."
"Huh?"
Ding Chen was taken aback and raised his head.
Liu Wei is also the king of Hongnong, and it is a bit excessive to bury a prince in the tomb of a eunuch.
He believes that this matter has little to do with Dong Zhuo.
In fact, Dong Zhuo has no need to embarrass a dead prince.
"Heaven is lucky, and no one has a mind.
Although King Hongnong said that he had some troubles with him, it was all the grievances of the elders.
Now, he has seized the throne of King Hongnong, but he still humiliates King Hongnong so much...... That King Hongnong, after all, is his brother. ”
When Mrs. Ding said this, she looked at Ding Chen.
"Xiao Chen, remember!
Don't take any chances, don't take any chances.
Remember what you said to me, let's go back to our hometown and farm, don't work hard for such a lucky person, it's not worth it! Do you understand? ”
"Sister, I wrote it down."
"Go to bed early, I'll cook tomorrow morning and wake you up."
After Mrs. Ding finished speaking, she put her packed bags at the head of the bed, and got up to leave.
Ding Chen was also a little tired and lay down early.
However, at the thought of going out to conquer Hucheng Pavilion tomorrow, he was a little uneasy.
Hucheng Pavilion!
When you arrive at Hucheng Pavilion, it is equivalent to leaving the main battlefield, how to achieve combat merits and behead Qingshou? If he couldn't, he wouldn't be able to make a request to Dong Zhuo. To put it bluntly, he really didn't want to stay in this treacherous Luoyang.
Well, there's a way to figure it out!
Thinking of this, Ding Chen closed his eyes.
