Chapter 2294 Gui Zi Juan reprimands and encourages

Feng Ziying also agreed with Cao Wenzhao's point of view, but Cao Wenzhao's style was too rigid, and he did not have the qualifications and prestige of his father, so he could not suppress Zhao Shujiao's group.

 As time went by, the rift grew wider and deeper, and the contradictions became deeper and deeper, and the two sides became incompatible with each other.

But now we must work together to open this situation. If Cao Wenzhao is still deeply entrenched and refuses to launch a fierce attack in the west, it will affect the effect of Mao Wenlong's surprise attack and lead to a stalemate in the entire situation.

"Brother Wenzhao, I know you have had a lot of grievances in your heart in the past two years, but have we warriors suffered a lot and been looked down upon by others? Yes, I am a civil servant, but I am also a warrior. I followed my father in Datong. I’ve had enough of that feeling, and I can still remember the way my dad looked when he was so aggrieved but couldn’t get angry,..."

Feng Ziying's words were stopped by Cao Wenzhao, "It is the practice of this dynasty to control military force with civility, so I won't go into details about it, but Zhao Lejiao and Du Song look down on others. They are all military people. Logically speaking, we should all They work together to plan national affairs, but what about them? They are little chickens and care about some interests. They turn a blind eye to the good fight between people and dragons. The Zu brothers will boast to the sky for a little credit. Sir, you should have heard something from Mao Wenlong, right? , Isn’t this because I, Cao Wenzhao, is partial?”

Feng Ziying sighed. If the grudges and hatreds here were to be recounted one by one, there would be no end.

"Okay, Brother Wenzhao and Brother Renlong, you two are also talented warriors, be more open-minded and show some tolerance. This time when Jun Song is surrounded, it is the time when Zhao Shujiao is in panic, but for Liaodong For the town, it is not the time to be impulsive. Juniper must be rescued. This is not only a matter of the lives of more than 10,000 sons, but also about the credibility and majestic image of our Liaodong town and even our Great Zhou court. If we talk about our sons We fight the enemy bravely at the front, but once we fall into the enemy's siege, we are limited by the conditions and timid from the difficulties, and do not dare to give it a try. This will only leave an impression in the minds of all the princes that this court is not worth their lives. In the future, when we need coolies to fight to the death or encounter danger, who of us will be willing to cut off the rear, who will be willing to cover, and who will be willing to reinforce?"

Feng Ziying's words were heavy and full of determination, "As long as I am still here, I will never allow this to happen. If anyone dares to propose such a decision, then I will first take his head and use it to comfort the morale of the army!"

Both Cao Wenzhao and He Renlong knew that although these words seemed to be Feng Ziying's self-reflection, they were actually a reminder and hint to them. There were no conditions on this matter, and they could only follow his instructions to the letter. Actions are based on intention. If anyone dares to violate the rules, he will not remember the old relationship.

Cao Wenzhao and He Renlong exchanged glances, and it was Cao Wenzhao who said: "Don't worry, Ziying, you have said so, how can we be so ignorant of current affairs? Besides, although Renlong and I are not talented, But that’s not to bring personal grievances into military affairs. I don’t like Jun Song, but he is also a general of the Zhou Dynasty. What’s more, he has more than 10,000 sons under his command, all of whom are sons of father and mother. How can I Can you give it up?"

"Brother Wenzhao is right, and I mean the same thing. If a man wants to be superior, he should prove it by his own ability on the battlefield, and he will never resort to subterfuge. You can rest assured about this, Ziying."

He Renlong also patted his chest. He was originally a ruthless person. From the bottom of his heart, he was unwilling to save Jun Song. But today, Feng Ziying talked about this, and he didn't know how to praise him. Then... It's really short-sighted.

"Very good. Just what you two said makes me feel at ease. If your two troops attack from Shifang Temple to Dingzibo, most of them will have Hu Erhan to stop the attack. Hu Erhan is a Jurchen from Jianzhou. There are countless strong generals, this battle will definitely be difficult, or in other words, the losses of your second unit will not be small, but I promise here that no matter how much losses your second unit has, I will make up for it in full, and your second unit will reach Denglai , I will also urge the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household Affairs to prioritize the reconstruction of your Denglai Army..."

This is a pretty generous promise. Both Cao Wenzhao and He Renlong knew that after this battle, they would serve as the main force in rebuilding Denglai Town. Although the town was rebuilt, Denglai still had water. In addition, Shandong is also a place that produces good soldiers. Qingzhou and Taishan have always been easy to recruit soldiers. As long as the court's food and salary are in place, it is not a problem to quickly build a strong army.

"Ziying, we will do our best in this battle and will never compromise, but you must fulfill your promise. In addition, I also have another request, that is, the formation of Denglai Town should be based on firearms, with swords, shields, and spears. These troops will be gradually reduced, and I hope to take the first step and establish an all-firearms military town." Cao Wenzhao looked at Feng Ziying and said.

Feng Ziying raised her eyebrows. Cao Wenzhao had correctly seen this. He had already realized that the era of hot weapons was coming, and it would take some courage to take such a big step.

"Okay, since Brother Wenzhao has such courage, how can I not support you?" Feng Ziying pondered for a moment, "An all-firearms army, not just fire blunderbuss, but also fire blunderbuss. There are differences between ordinary fire blunderbuss and heavy fire blunderbuss." It's best to come up with a set of training strategies for how to match muskets and artillery, and what tactics to adopt."

　　After Cao Wenzhao and He Renlong were agreed upon, Feng Ziying breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't have too much worry about Zhao Lijiao and You Shilu. This frontal attack was a war of attrition. What was competing was the strength, supplies, and fighting will of both sides. However, Feng Ziying believed that whether it was his own side or Jianzhou It is impossible for the army to win a decisive victory on this frontal battlefield, and it is very likely to become a **** mill.

 The key still depends on Cao Wenzhao and Mao Wenlong's attacks from both wings.

 But only if the frontal battlefield becomes more intense, can the Jianzhou Army be forced to devote more troops to it and reduce the assault resistance on both wings.

Similarly, Feng Ziying is not optimistic about breaking through from the west wing, but it still requires a fierce offensive from Cao Wenzhao's side to hold back more of the Jianzhou Army and provide better conditions and opportunities for Mao Wenlong's side to break through.

 He Huchen and Yang Zhaoji came to Feng Ziying on their own initiative.

The two of them were of too low status and were not qualified to enter the hall with Zhao Lejiao, Cao Wenzhao and You Shilu, so they could only line up outside the hall.

Now there are more than 80,000 troops gathered in Liaodong Town, the Northern Front Army and Cao He's Second Division (Denglai Army). Among them, the main force of the Liaodong Army on Zhao's side reaches more than 30,000, and the Northern Front Army is close to 30,000. There are more than 10,000 people from Cao Wenzhao and He Renlong.

He Huchen and Yang Zhaoji only led a battalion of more than 3,000 men each, and their qualifications were not very high. They were not very conspicuous in the Northern Front Army.

　　Although all their equipment had been changed to fire guns after they were transferred from the Beijing Camp, they were always looked down upon by the Jizhen Army in the Northern Front Army because of their status as the Beijing Camp.

Even if they fought well in the Shandong Liberation War, the Jizhen Army felt that the Niu-Sun coalition at that time was too poor or had no will to defend Shandong in order to win.

Meeting with Feng Ziying, He Huchen and Yang Zhaoji naturally complained about their humiliating position in the Northern Front Army and their discomfort in coming to Liaodong.

"What's wrong with you? Ji Zhenjun and you are almost in the same area. You said it's cold here, the climate and climate are not suitable, and the food is not good. How can they adapt?" Feng Ziying scolded He Huchen and Yang Zhaoji unceremoniously, "You If you feel that others are discriminating against you or looking down on you, then you must earn back your face and dignity, and winning this battle is the best way."

"But Mr. You wants us to launch a harassment war against Daishan's army from the east wing. Sir, what Mr. You has given us is a harassment mission. That is to say, if we hold off Daishan's army, we will win. But Daishan's army is stationed at Huabaochong and Sancha. If they rely on these forts to defend the Erbao front line, it will be difficult for us to fight..."

He Huchen wanted to explain a few more words, but Feng Ziying snapped back: "Huchen, I see that after you fought a few battles in Shandong, your equipment is getting better and better, and your troops are getting stronger. How come you are so courageous and courageous?" Is it getting worse? What is war? When you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins. If you fight without killing anyone, without sacrificing, or without sacrifice, then it is still called fighting? That is called rushing to the battlefield! Do you think that after a few years of fighting under your command, the soldiers will still be the same, and the generals will still be the same? Those generals have a generous heart and a fat body, and are free from illness and disaster. Is this possible? Is there such an army?"

He Huchen was left speechless by Feng Ziying's question. He Huchen's face turned red and white, his head was so low that it almost touched his chest, and he did not dare to say anything.

"Do you think the enemy you two are facing is as tough as the Jianzhou Army faced by Zhao Lijiao and You Shilu? Is it as tough as the main force of Hu Erhan faced by Cao Wenzhao and He Renlong? Is it as difficult as Mao Wenlong's risk of stepping out of the border wall? Is it very difficult and dangerous to travel hundreds of miles in the snow?”

Feng Ziying’s spit almost hit the faces of He Huchen and Yang Zhaoji. Their faces were burning and they did not dare to raise their heads.

"Let me tell you, He Huchen and Yang Zhaoji, although You Shilu only handed over the Daishan Department to you to harass in this battle, there are also particularities in how to attack." Feng Ziying's voice became louder, "If you can Master the rhythm well, and in the end be able to drive out the Daishan Department and force it to collapse. This echoes Mao Wenlong's diagonal attack from the northeast. I think the effect of this victory will be more dazzling, even more brilliant. It may give Nurhachi a heart-wrenching memory, so that he can remember it for a long time and never dare to touch the tiger's beard again!"

Feng Ziying looked at the two of them and said teasingly: "If you only want to complete the tasks assigned to you by You Shilu, think that you have achieved the purpose of harassment, hold back the Daishan Department, and wait for other friendly forces to complete this victory, then I think You two don’t stay in the Beijing Camp or the Northern Front Army. It’s better to join the Guards as early as possible, or I recommend you join the Third Family Army, where you’ll be the most comfortable and comfortable, and you won’t have to worry about anything.”
