Chapter 19 Military Exercises


0Novel Reading Network Fan Zhen passed on Yun Qing's unclear order.

When the engineering soldiers heard that they were the main force in this siege, they all geared up and were ready to fight.

They usually don't have a role in the battlefield, so they are ridiculed by many people as old, weak, sick and disabled, which makes them feel suffocated.

A few days later, veteran He Qifeng came with 25,000 troops to join Yunqing.

After learning that Lin Zhengxing wanted to take Yun Qing as the leader, several lieutenants raised objections on the spot.

"This won't work.

Isn't this child's play?

What ability do you have?"

A general in his forties said dissatisfied: "Even if the general is not here, there is still General He.

Why should it be your turn to give orders?"

"Shut up."

He Qifeng shouted angrily.

The veteran's beard and hair were budding, his face was red, and he looked extremely angry: "Wang Yanglun, have you forgotten what military orders are like?

Now that Yun Qing is the commander, you actually committed the following crime, come on, Pull him out and charge him with fifty military sticks according to military regulations."

"Old General, calm down, please calm down.

Duke Yunqing is young after all, so it is understandable that Wang Yanglun does not agree with him."

The generals around him quickly tried to dissuade him.

General He had always been stubborn and rigorous, otherwise he would not have been willing to do so given his qualifications.

Under Lin Zhengxing's hands.

You must know that Lin Zhengxing was brought out by him, and it would not be an exaggeration for Lin Zhengxing to call him teacher.

"Old General, don't be angry.

What General Wang said is true."

Yun Qing held He Qifeng down, and then looked at Wang Yanglun: "General Wang, since you don't obey me, why don't you and I have a military exercise?"

"Okay.

Just come.

But if you lose, you have to give up the command and let General He command the battle."

Wang Yanglun was overjoyed when he heard this.

He didn't think he would lose.

As for Yunqing quelling the civil strife in Tianhua, he thought it was an exaggeration.

Without the help of the two Dukes Yeyue, it would have been impossible for Yunqing to quell the civil strife.

"Then it's settled.

Generals, you are the referee."

"That's fine."

Although General He still had anger on his face, he had to give Yun Qing some face: "Then you both go back and prepare.

Tomorrow at noon, there will be a battlefield fifty miles to the west.

Two thousand men and horses.

Everything depends on the outcome of the battle tomorrow."

But then he thought it wasn't a bad thing.

As long as Yunqing defeats Wang Yanglun, he can establish his prestige and let the army officers have confidence in him.

Otherwise, even if he directs the battle and the soldiers below are not convinced, the combat effectiveness and morale will not be much higher.

After listening to General He's words, the generals understood in their hearts that the old general wanted to see Yun Qing's actual ability to lead troops, rather than conduct military exercises directly on the school grounds.

From today to noon tomorrow, one night plus half a day is enough to make a lot of arrangements.

Later, General He personally counted two thousand soldiers and horses as well as items for military exercises to the two of them, and explained the situation to the soldiers on both sides.

Then both sides took their soldiers to the location designated by the old general.

"Report to the old general that Duke Yunqing has set up camp at the designated location."

"Yeah, so fast."

He Qifeng was quite surprised.

Such a fast speed of setting up camp really surprised him.

"Yes, but Duke Yunqing only asked the soldiers to set up tents for about five hundred people, so the speed was very fast."

The messenger said.

He Qifeng was slightly startled when he heard this.

He looked at the other generals and saw that they all looked at each other in confusion.

"What does he mean?

He sent out enough tents for two thousand people, but he only used the number for five hundred people.

He wouldn't want the soldiers to sleep on the ground at night.

Wouldn't the soldiers not be able to rest well?"

How to ensure combat effectiveness tomorrow?"

Although Fan Zhen had seen the battle of Yunqing during the Battle of Yunmiao City, he did not think that he could win the military exercise.

No matter how excellent his archery skills are, magical weapons cannot be used in military exercises.

From generals to soldiers, everyone uses weapons specially made for military exercises to avoid causing too much damage.

Even the arrows were wrapped in cotton, so it was impossible to exert the terrifying power they had during the siege.

What's more, this is a military exercise, and what is measured is the troop leadership and strategic combat capabilities of both sides, not the force of the generals of both sides.

In this case, whether the soldiers rest well or not will directly have a great impact on combat effectiveness.

"General Wang has completed the construction of the camp and is burying pots for cooking."

After a while, the messenger from Wang Yanglun came to report the news.

"At this time of cooking, it seems that he wants to rest early and rush to the battlefield in advance to prepare."

After hearing the words of the messenger, the generals all understood Wang Yanglun's thoughts.

But at this moment, another messenger came from Yunqing on horseback: "Report to the general.

The Duke of Yunqing has personally led a thousand infantry to the battlefield.

The five hundred infantry in the camp are burying pots and cooking.

The other five hundred cavalrymen are rehearsing the charge formation according to Duke Yunqing’s arrangements in advance.”

"What?"

All the generals were stunned.

What does this mean?

Calculated according to this time, I am afraid that he had planned all this from the beginning.

After arriving at the designated camping site, he immediately divided his troops and went to the battlefield.

The remaining soldiers only used tents for 500 people, so they set up camp quickly.

"This kid actually played this trick."

General He suddenly stroked his beard and smiled: "He is trying to seize the opportunity.

Hehe, even if Wang Yanglun had asked the soldiers to cook and rest in advance, he would have completely lost the opportunity to go to the battlefield tonight. machine."

"Yes, Duke Yunqing's approach was indeed very flexible.

But although he had the upper hand, the thousand soldiers lost the opportunity to rest.

This is not good," a general sighed.

"Let's wait and see.

Judging from his actions, I'm afraid he didn't think of this."

He Qifeng said with a smile on his face: "I am really looking forward to this military exercise more and more."

While the generals were talking, Yun Qing was walking around the predetermined battlefield with three to four hundred soldiers.

"Your Majesty Duke, what are we going to do?"

A soldier couldn't help but ask.

"Let's first take a look at the terrain of the battlefield where we will fight tomorrow."

Yun Qing answered him with a smile: "If you are not familiar with the terrain, you will have lost this battle by three points without even fighting."

Yun Qing led these hundreds of soldiers around the entire battlefield, and then selected a hill near the middle of the entire battlefield: "Place the tents of a thousand people you brought here.

By the way, they must be built halfway up the mountain.

For the fortifications, prepare a lot of rocks and logs for defense.

I'll go over and see if the tents over there are set up."

Soon, Yun Qing arrived at the location of the other soldiers.

I saw that the tents with 500 people had been arranged, and the spurs had begun to be arranged.

"Your Excellency, the arrangements have been completed, what should we do next?"

Seeing Yun Qing coming, the leading captain hurriedly came over to ask for instructions.

"Very good, the people who arranged the Spurs should be busy.

Let the two hundred people cook in the pots, and the two hundred people follow me."

Yun Qing nodded, and then arranged the next tasks.

At the same time, all the soldiers on Wang Yanglun's side had eaten and started to rest.

"General, given our current situation, all our soldiers will arrive on the battlefield after midnight tonight."

A captain looked at the sun and smiled: "We can then arrange everything on the battlefield."

"Very good.

You all should go and have a rest.

Tomorrow, let that Duke from Tianhua know what it means to be someone outside the world, and there is a sky outside the world."

Wang Yanglun sneered.

The sun is setting deeply, Yun Qing took the soldiers who had arrived on the battlefield to complete the arrangement.

"Take three hundred archers and station yourself on the hill to rest.

Remember to put on the armored straw men and stand them up.

Don't panic when the enemy comes.

Just shoot two rounds of arrows and they will probably retreat.

When the battle starts at noon tomorrow, you only need to attack the targets within your range while the others rest in this camp."

Yun Qing said to a team leader.

The 500 infantrymen he had left behind earlier began to advance towards Wang Yanglun's designated military camp under the leadership of Luo Yong.

As soon as they left the camp, Qin Yulin immediately ordered the five hundred cavalry to stop the drill and enter the camp to rest.

When Wang Yanglun led his army to the battlefield at midnight, what he saw was the camp on the hill in the distance.

"Why did they come earlier than us?"

He was shocked.

From rushing to the camping site to setting up camp to cooking and resting, he was almost constantly scrambling for time.

However, he did not expect that the people in Yunqing were better than him.

Still have to arrive early.

"General, what's going on?

How could they be earlier than us?"

Looking at the tent, Wang Yanglun couldn't help but sigh: "Maybe this guy turned around after arriving at the camping site and came to camp here."

"General, what should we do now?

They have already occupied the best positions on the battlefield."

A captain looked at the camp on the hill with great distress.

They occupied that place.

It was easy to defend and difficult to attack from a high position.

It would be several times more difficult to capture this place at that time.

"Scout, go to the enemy camp to investigate the situation."

Wang Yanglun's face was uncertain.

Yun Qing's approach directly disrupted his arrangement and made him feel deeply aggrieved.

Not long after, the scout sent out said: "Report to the general, we were attacked by the enemy's arrows as soon as we got close.

I was the only one who came back alive, the others were all killed.

However, I have clearly investigated the enemy's situation.

That hillock There are a lot of people there, about six to seven hundred people.”

Wang Yanglun looked at the red paint on the scout's right arm that kept flashing in the night, and felt depressed.

He had already killed more than a dozen scouts before the military exercise even started, and the only one who came back was injured.

The arrows are wrapped in cotton and cotton cloth, and then dyed with red pigment that can flash at night, and then shot.

Death in battle will be determined based on the location of the shot.

The scout was only shot in the right arm, so he came back.

The other soldiers who were shot in the fatal part had already retreated to the designated location of the fallen in accordance with the rules of the military exercise.

"Six to seven hundred people, it seems that they are planning to focus on defending that hillock."

Wang Yanglun smiled secretly in his heart: "So what if you occupy a favorable position?

As long as I wipe out the rest of your troops, the remaining people will only be "Sit back and wait for death."

"Follow me and camp on the hill over there."

Wang Yanglun looked at the situation on the battlefield and then pointed to a hill in the distance. 0Novel Reading Network:
