0665 Wang Yu Expedition

What exactly should be done?

Shen Zhezi has also faced such questions frequently recently. In addition to the envoys from all parties who came to ask, his subordinates and generals were also asking questions frequently.

Previously, due to the lack of manpower and material resources, many matters were still a little conservative. However, as the construction scale grew, the resources were pouring in more and more continuously, just like huge waves. Now the goods stored in Liang County have reached an extremely astonishing quantity. It is difficult for the rest to understand the whole picture, and they are still guessing that he is brave and enterprising and wants to win another battle.

But officials like Ji You who are in charge of logistics know that the goods stored in Liang County now far exceed the demand for another war. Even if the retreat is stopped, the storage is enough for the army to need for three months! The transportation of the retreat has not been interrupted. Although it is no longer as turbulent as the flood season, it still maintains an extremely high transportation volume.

The army is outside and there is enough money and food, which can indeed give people peace of mind. But if there are too many, it will become a source of uneasy. If these foods and grasses are lost, it will be difficult to have such a large storage in the next few years!

Therefore, Ji You and others complained, and even couldn't sleep at night with fear. Although the front line repeatedly spyed deeply and knew the distribution of Huainan military forces, it was difficult to cross Liang County and go deeper into the rear. However, the overflowing storage is really an unnecessary burden and hidden danger.

In the face of outsiders' inquiries, Shen Zhezi just responded casually. However, he told his subordinates and generals directly that they should prepare for battle, and it was not just one battle, and it was very likely that it would be a series of battles. Therefore, while he was calm at the moment, he would use it in the future!

In winter, the climate is much colder than in Jiangdong. Ordinary ditches were frozen long ago, and even the water was covered with ice. However, the cold weather could not dispel people's enthusiasm. In the past few months, Liangjun has become the focus of attention in Jiangdong, so many people come to watch.

Some of these visitors sent personnel from all sides to spy on the scene, while others were just simple curiosity. What these people were concerned about was just two things: what did Shen Zhezi spend so much money to make Liang County run and what to do next.

One day in winter, Shen Zhezi, as the prefect of Liang County, personally came out to entertain staff from all parties under Liang County City, and revealed that he wanted to solve the doubts for all parties.

Therefore, on this day, there were also tourists gathered at Liangjun city. Among them were people who originally stayed here, and some rushed over after hearing the news. The components were also complicated. There were both military envoys from various regions in Jiangbei and people from various families in the countryside. Of course, there were also people sent by Taichung and Jiangdong.

Hundreds of people gathered early before the agreed time to the high platform that had been built outside Liangjun City. Although the north wind was cold, the high platform had a large cowhide tent to shelter and there were many charcoal pots inside. The baking was like a warm spring, and the cold wind was difficult to invade.

It was not until noon that Shen Zhezi walked to the high platform surrounded by soldiers and generals. He did not wear military armor today, but only wore a brocade robe and fur. He lacked a lot of majesty, but his demeanor doubled. He did not come here alone, but came together with Princess Xingnan.

Princess Xingnan is also full of cheerful eyes and smiles today. She has been north for several months, but she still has very few opportunities to meet Shen Zhezi. She rarely appears in public together, so she is in a state of excitement.

Today, I told everyone that it was just a banquet, so Shen Zhezi did not shy away from bringing his family. The princess came here, which actually had a great impact on the overall situation in Liang County.

As early as when the Liang County defense line was not fully built, he had to attract Jiangdong's manpower to this point. Although he won beautifully in the previous battle, it was still between whether the land of Liang County's new repair can be kept, so it was not attractive to the people of Jiangdong.

However, Princess Xingnan came here in person, which indirectly shows that the safety of Liang County is guaranteed. This point alone is better than a thousand words. So from this perspective, Shen Zhezi really wants to thank Princess Xingnan for his support.

Without such a good example, it would be difficult to attract Jiangdong people to the north. Without the injection of manpower, even if there is continuous support for money and grain, it would be difficult to fully utilize this advantage.

When the couple arrived at the platform, the scene became lively and guests stood up to greet each other. Since Princess Xingnan was no longer a secret, there were many female relatives here. Later, the men and women were separated, and Shen Zhezi went to the middle of the platform and signaled everyone to sit down, and then he slowly took the seat.

Although it is called a banquet, it does not drink wine and treats guests, but it is enough to fill its stomach. However, everyone here did not attend for food. Although they were sitting in the banquet, they frequently looked at Shen Zhezi. Seeing that Shen Zhezi had finished the meal, they hurriedly put down the tableware and sat upright.

"Today, we will invite you all. One is to congratulate the prosperity of Jin Zuo, the king's army will live up to its usefulness, and Jiangbei will make contributions!"

As Shen Zhezi said, he stood up and bowed slowly towards Jiankang. Everyone in the banquet also stood up and bowed to Jiangdong with the gifts.

After getting up, Shen Zhezi's face curled away, turned to anger, and flew with a sword: "I pray that the king is facing south, this is a disobedient manner that has never been seen in ancient times! Wang Yeke sent a letter to Jiang Biao, can anyone who I am the leader of can have a clear conscience?"

Everyone suddenly heard the sound and asked harshly, and they were all stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer. Suddenly, a powerful drum sounded outside the tent, and then a neat and loud roar from the four platforms of the high platform sounded, shocking the wilderness: "The hero holds his sword and returns to the country for the king!"

"The land in China is all old talk. Today, we have to eat food to the public, so that we can change the old! The foolish origin is humble and it is obvious that the country is rich and it is difficult to express. I only ask you all the wise men to supervise me and praise me for this to show that you will not let it go!"

Shen Zhezi stood on the high platform and waved his arms and roared. Then several generals from the stage walked out, striding to the front of the platform, each bowed his head and saluted to see him, took the tiger talisman flag from Shen Zhezi, and then retreated high, each riding on his horse, and galloping towards the four fields.

Seeing this, everyone was puzzled. Some people who had received the trust earlier explained to everyone at this time: "Today, you are the prince consort's banquet, to see the victorious attitude of the army of the king."

The drums inside became more and more intense, and suddenly stopped at the most rapid moment. The ears suddenly became silent. Everyone felt a little discomfort, but their vision had changed.

On the vast and flat campus under the high platform, black lines slowly emerged, and then gradually grew stronger. From this, everyone saw a torrent of steel coming towards them. The outline in their vision gradually became clear, and they could see that they were soldiers with black armored swords and shields, straiting in a tight array and striding towards this journey!

Click! Click!

The neat sound, a square formation composed of thousands of soldiers, was as straight as a knife cut, and the footsteps were even more complete, without any noise! ​​When the team approached, the people on the platform were already silent and didn't know what words to use to express their inner feelings.

"The last general Cao Na, who led a thousand soldiers, were all under the tent. Please review the general!"

Cao Na, wearing bright light armor, led two deputy generals to stalk forward and bow down from the stage.

Hearing this, the people in the room were in a state of turmoil and frequently looked at Cao Na, whispering: "Is this Cao Na who captured the slave general Huang Quan? His army is so majestic that he can achieve this. No wonder he can achieve this..."

There were also many people laughing and saying, "This Cao Na originally belonged to Xuzhou. Many people said that Xi Gong was quite clear about his knowledge. Now it seems that he has missed a good general..."

There were naturally envoys from the Xuzhou Governor's Office in Guangling in the table. After hearing this, his face naturally became strange, and he didn't know how to respond to these stupid voices. However, when he saw the appearance of Cao Na's troops, his face also became serious.

The array is just a neat. No matter what kind of soldiers are, they can achieve success in time. Whether they can really see the elite troops depends on whether they form formations and change formations and whether they are agile when dealing with them on the right time.

However, the skillful use of these soldiers is really eye-catching. The two square formations have two thousand soldiers, both of which are armored! Although they are only half-body armored, they are all protected. If they form a formation to fight against the enemy, they are a stubborn army!

As if in order to respond to the voices of those people, Cao Na got up and ordered the flag to be displayed. The soldiers in the array responded to the promise, hitting the hilt of the knife and then quickly cutting the formation. Three soldiers, five soldiers, and even the seven-man formations that were staggered in front and back, and ten-man formations quickly formed a dismantling and changing.

When the movement was made, those who were not familiar with military affairs in the table sighed and felt that it was not as neat and beautiful as the square formation that had been silently established earlier. However, in the eyes of some people with military experience, their expressions were inevitably more serious. Because the battle is always dynamic, only when it moves can it truly show the coordination and tacit understanding of the individual soldiers and the military formation. No matter how neat the formation is, it collapses as soon as it rushes, and that is just a good thing.

Although it is difficult to show specific combat power due to the lack of direct confrontation conflicts at present. However, such frequent switching can still maintain an overall rhythm, and it is worthy of the reputation of elite soldiers!

The military formation drill lasted for half a quarter of an hour. When Cao Na ordered the flag to be put away, the sword, shield and armor soldiers returned to the square formation. Although they were not as neat as they were at the beginning, the changes were not big.

Shen Zhezi was also very satisfied with this, so he left a token of A and said loudly: "Let's go back to the list!"

When the sword and shield square formations exit, then there will be square formations, including swords, shields, guns, crossbows, bows and spears. The excellent mechanical use and extremely high discipline shown by these soldiers are really eye-catching and touching.

However, this afternoon, the army inspected was only part of the army, and the cavalry and the Shengwu Army that Shen Zhezi had built the most have not yet appeared.

As the sky gradually got late, the people on the platform were still tired after sitting for a night, and they were still unsatisfied. If the various constructions around Liang County only showed that Shen's financial resources were strong, then today's military inspection was officially announced to the outside world that the strong army in Yuzhou could rely on!

Although the north wind is bitter, it is difficult to extinguish the heat. The bonfires around the campus are illuminating the area under Liangjun City in the daylight.

The arrangements at night are less serious and more lively than the daytime military exercises. During the day, the military exercises are arranged in the surrounding areas of the school, and the regiments sit in the bonfires, each echoing with military horns and drums.

Wherever Shen Zhezixing arrived on the platform, he walked down the platform with a spear with his armor and a spear. He raised his spear and pointed to the north: "Looking north to kill slaves, who will join forces!"

"I wish to raise the reins for the general!"

"I wish to hold a spear for the general!"

"I'm willing to control the strings for the general!"

“…”

The shouts came one after another, and during the breath, more than a dozen generals had rushed into the field, and the surrounding area of ​​the school were even more thunderous. Many people didn't even know what they were shouting, but they couldn't help but roaring to the sky in such an atmosphere.

"Don't say that there is no one in the country, there are heroes in this village! Mountains and rivers nourish muscles and bones, and they have a lot of crazy ambitions in their lives! China is the home country, and they dare not abandon an inch of land! Hu Nu disrupted my territory, so he only showed it with a sword! He drove for three thousand miles and captured the thieves and shared the roast! Hu Er has many beasts, and cut off his heart and blood and food! Today, at this time, will the son dare to fight?"

Shen Zhezi stood with a spear, his long hair spread out in the strong wind, raising his arms and singing, looking down on his left and right.

"Fight! Fight! Fight!"

The soldiers from all directions raised their arms and responded, and the sound shook the wilderness. For a moment, even the floating clouds were intimidated. The moon was bright and the hollow was revealed!

Seeing this heroic spirit, everyone on the platform was inspired, and they all raised their arms and roared to join the torrent.

Among them, there are many children from aristocratic families who have been neglecting military affairs for a long time. At this time, all of them have their eyes shining brightly. They feel that there is a magnificent force in the army, with strong winds and strong ambitions, singing wildly, and singing with all the people. This is the majesty of a real man, far from talking about the mystery and elegance!

Princess Xingnan was in the female mat of the high platform. When she saw her husband showing off her will and wield her crazy manner, her heart was already pounding the drum, and her eyes were filled with tears. She stood up from the mat, her lips twitched slightly, and she tried hard to hold back her tears, she did not shed tears in front of the army, and waving her arms in the direction of Shen Zhezi regardless of the eyes of others.

"Princess, it's time to leave. The boat is ready. I'll get off tonight and return to the capital..."

Cui Ling, the young lady of the Cui family next to him, stood up and whispered in the princess's ear, but her eyes were often looking at the prince-consort surrounded by the generals. Although she was trying her best to endure it, she still couldn't control the brilliant flow in her beautiful eyes.

When the princess heard this, her shoulders trembled suddenly, she hugged her hands in front of her chest, and prayed to the sky frequently. However, when she opened her eyes again, she saw that her husband was already riding a horse surrounded by the generals, gradually moving away.

The atmosphere on the high platform was still warm, and although there were many people who had not drunk alcohol, they were already drunk. They hit the table with their wishes and sang repeatedly: "When the king went out to war, he used the kingdom to defend the kingdom... to jointly defend the kingdom with the military uniform, and to determine the kingdom!"

Everyone was still immersed in the atmosphere of martial arts. Suddenly, the cold wind came, and it felt that it was too late for the night. Looking around, they found that there were soldiers demolishing the cowhide tents around them, and they realized that the banquet had ended. Everyone stood up and walked down the platform, turned to the left but there was no trace of the prince-consort. In the night, there were dense sounds of cars and footsteps.

"Brother Du Shi, where did the prince-consort go? Today's powerful martial arts posture is enough to be passed down for a long time. We are about to have a long talk with the prince-consort at night. Inspired by this, we will also join the prince-consort in the future!"

Just as they were looking around, everyone saw Du He leading more than a dozen officials and accompanying him to hurry by, and hurriedly chased after him and said with a smile.

After hearing this, Du He paused his foot, turned his head and bowed, "The general has led the vanguard to send troops to recover Huainan. He has a lot of military affairs before his journey, so he has no time to say goodbye in person and apologize to me. If you want to follow the army to watch the formation, please make some preparations after returning to the destination today, and follow the central army tomorrow."

"Send, send troops to recover Huainan? Have you sent troops?"

When everyone heard this, they were dumbfounded and stood there. Only then did they remember that the prince consort was singing. Today, at this moment, it turned out that it was not just a saying!
