Chapter 476: Painful Introspection


All the generals are embarrassed, in fact, the battle loss rate of more than sixty percent of the generals has fully demonstrated their bravery and sense of responsibility, which is amazingly excellent in any team in the entire Great Song Dynasty, but at this time, it is undoubtedly more embarrassing and painful for them, because even after paying such a high price, they still lost this battle, and they were completely defeated.

What's the problem, purely in terms of strength, they are either the country's most elite forbidden army or Hu Yanzhuo's elite soldiers who have been training for many years, and the other party is just a group of grass bandits; In terms of numbers, they were a full 5,000 cavalry, of which there were more than 1,000 chain horses that were just not tethered, and on the Liangshan side, they actually seemed to have less than 3,000 men, and half of them were infantry.

It doesn't seem to be a problem with equipment, training and discipline, the equipment of the other party is obviously inferior to them, although they also admit that the thieves in Liangshan are indeed different from ordinary strongmen, at least they are neatly equipped with weapons instead of any wooden sticks and shovels, and the discipline of their officers and soldiers is also forbidden, and the long snake formation is maintained very intact from beginning to end, so what is this for After returning to the barracks, Hu Yanzhuo asked everyone to quickly recuperate from their injuries and recover their strength, and at the same time raise the defense level by one level to prevent the people of Liangshan from sneaking up, while he himself sat at the table and pondered the gains and losses of this battle.

Han Tao and Peng Xi were also under pressure when they saw Hu Yanzhuo's appearance, but after hastily treating their injuries, they all came to Hu Yanzhuo's account, and the three of them carefully reflected on the whole process of this battle together.

Han Tao was ashamed and said: "This time the biggest responsibility is actually on me, as a pioneer officer, I can't even resist a thief on the other side, causing us to lose our sharpness, and it will be difficult to open up the situation again in the future." ” Peng Xi hurriedly said: "Brother Han, don't say that, you have actually done your best, and I have the same responsibility as you, as the deputy pioneer and the general of the post, I also failed to complete my task." ” Hu Yanzhuo said in a deep voice: "Don't blame yourself for both, if you really want to say that, the biggest responsibility is on me, in the end I am exhausted, I can no longer resist the enemy generals, which led to the rout of the whole army, had to retreat, the most important thing for us now is not to hold accountable first, but to find countermeasures." ” Both of them nodded again and again, and Han Tao sighed: "Why did this group of Liangshan thieves gather so many heroes, when I attacked the mountain before, I already thought that their strength was quite good, much stronger than those forces that were crusaded before, who knew that the strength around this Du Jia was several times stronger, no wonder it was able to cause such a big sensation in Qingzhou." ” Peng Xi also sighed: "Especially those thief generals don't seem to be from the green forest, they are very familiar with the army and tactics of the imperial court, and they are extremely proficient in martial arts, they should all be from the imperial court, although they are unwilling, but I have to admit that at least six or seven of them are going to defeat me in an all-round way, such talents should be the elite of the imperial court, why are they willing to put aside their great prospects and lose themselves to thieves?

” Hu Yanzhuo seemed to think of something, and took out a letter from under a military book next to him and said with a wry smile: "You don't say that I forgot, this is the information written by Zhao Nan, the former prefect of Jiangnan Mansion, which has introduced the important leaders of Liangshan, but Ben Shuai didn't take it seriously at the time, just glanced at it and threw it aside, but he didn't expect to suffer a big loss in it." ” Han Tao and Peng Xi were all shocked, and hurriedly took the letter and looked at it carefully, and sure enough, the description in it was very clear, except for Du Jia's own origin, background, martial arts and other information were unknown, the rest of the generals wrote the information clearly, Zhao Nan had not yet had an epiphany at that time, and there was still the idea of being loyal to the saint and his faction, so he did not hide it.

The three of them read it carefully, and the more they read, the more frightened they became, where is this a group of grass cowards they look down on, many of them are officers of the imperial court, and no matter how high or low they are, they often have a characteristic, they are all real generals, and they do not rely on nepotism or bragging.

Du Jia, in his early twenties, unknown origin, unknown background, unknown martial arts, only knows that the weapon is a spear, has a broad mind, and has great personal charm, many of his subordinates are willing to die for him, and is currently one of the chief leaders of Liangshan, and is responsible for all military operations Leopard head Lin Chong, in his early thirties, the former head of the Tokyo Forbidden Army's 800,000 guns and sticks, has a calm and calm personality, is good at using the Lin family gun, it is rumored that the Zhao family gun and the Xiang family gun also have research, and is the first general under Du Jia and the commander-in-chief of the Ma Army Thunderbolt Qin Ming, in his early thirties, the former head of the Qingzhou soldiers and horses, has a brave and reckless personality, and is good at using a mace weighing sixty pounds, a general of the Ma Army Xiao Li Guanghuarong, age twenty-five or six, the former deputy owner of Qingfeng Village under Qingzhou, has a calm personality and outstanding marksmanship, especially good at archery, and has never missed a hand Flower monk Lu Zhishen, age 289, formerly known as Luda, once served as a magistrate under the command of Weizhou Xiaozhong Jingluo Xianggong, the character is thick and fine, and then escaped after injuring people's lives, and became a monk in Wutai Mountain, and changed his name to Lu Zhishen at the same time, and then fell into the grass in Erlong Mountain, and made a 63-pound water mill Zen stick The blue-faced beast Yang Zhi, aged twenty-eight or nine, was a famous general Yang Linggong in the early years of my dynasty, and originally served as the envoy of the palace marshal's mansion, but was demoted because of the mistake in the Huashi Gang, and then lost the birth outline of the Liang Zhongshu of the famous mansion and fell into the rivers and lakes, and finally fell into the grass with Lu Zhishen in Erlong Mountain, and the knives and guns were proficient, especially the Yang family gun Killing god Wu Song, age 256, once served as the head of Yanggu County, it is rumored that he had killed a tiger with his bare hands after being drunk, and was rescued by Du Jia after being sent to Mengzhou Mansion, and since then he has followed with a dead heart, and is good at using double knives, and at the same time is more proficient in foot combat, and is the commander-in-chief of the Liangshan Infantry Army Black Whirlwind Li Kui...

The three of them read the letter back and forth several times before they couldn't help but look at each other, Hu Yanzhuo stumbled and said: "No wonder this guy is so difficult, it turns out that they are all characters with great backgrounds, this Du Jia can gather them all under his command It is really terrible, and this guy's own skills are also extremely good, it's all my fault, if I paid attention to this letter earlier, I wouldn't be so light on the enemy today." ” Han Tao and Peng Xi hurriedly persuaded again, and Hu Yanzhuo cheered up again and said slowly: "What the two brothers said is that it is useless to say regret after the matter has come to this point, and I also thought about it just now, this battle failed not only because the other party has so many fierce generals, but also because the terrain is also very important, that Zhumazhai just gave full play to the advantages of their many leaders, but at the same time it restricted the full deployment of our cavalry, and I don't know who came up with this strategy, this person's terrible degree is not below Du Jia." ” The last time I came to Putuo Mountain, it was quite simple, this time it was really "poop-like", the heavy commercial atmosphere came strongly, and I couldn't wait to directly package the Bodhisattva and sell it, hehe, hehe:
