Tuotuo had tried hard to conquer Zhang Shicheng this time. Since the failure of the last two expeditions, Zhang Shicheng took the opportunity to capture the two cities of Xinghua and Gaoyou, some treacherous villains took the opportunity to speak generously in front of Emperor Hui of Yuan, saying: "If the Prime Minister had not advocated the repair of the Yellow River, the world would have been safe and stable, and the world would have been stable. How could there be such a rebel like Zhang Shicheng?" Tuotuo never regretted the decision to build the Yellow River. The Yellow River broke the dam and flooded. As a senior official of the court, he persuaded the emperor not to build the river bank regardless of the lives and death of the people. This was undoubtedly a killing chicken to get eggs and greedy for a temporary comfort. He Tuotuo would not do such a foolish thing.

However, Tutuo did not expect that Zhang Shicheng had some skills. He had twice encircled and suppressed him, but he did not wipe him out, and even let him take the opportunity to occupy Xinghua and Gaoyou. What was even more disgusting was that the court sent Huainan province Zhaomo Shengzhao as a special envoy to Gaoyou City for the second time to recruit surrender, pardoned his serious crime of rebellion, and promised that as long as Zhang Shicheng was willing to surrender, he would be given the title of "Ten Thousand Houses of the Navy". Such high-ranking officials were unmoved and dared to kill the envoy with a bold and arrogant attitude. How could Tutuo let go of such a rebel who despised the power of the Great Yuan Tianwei? Therefore, Tutuo insisted on leading troops to conquer himself.

The military strategy says: ": I dare not be the master, but the guest; I dare not advance in the middle, but retreat. This means that there is no way to move; I can resist without arms; I can throw in invincible; I can hold on to no war. No disaster is greater than underestimating the enemy, and I can lose my treasure. Therefore, the resistance of the army is similar, and those who are sad will win."

Tutuo also made sufficient preparations for this expedition. From the last time, Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces gathered 150,000 troops to attack Zhang Shicheng, but the entire army was wiped out. Tutuo learned in detail about the incident and knew that the opponent's firearm was very powerful, so if you want to defeat the opponent, you must start with the weapon.

To this end, Tutuo specially listed a lot of cannons and crossbow beds from the arsenal. With these equipment, it was no problem to pick up a small Zhang Shicheng. Despite this, Tutuo also recruited a lot of people in order to completely defeat Zhang Shicheng.

The Yuan Dynasty's army was divided into two types according to different tasks: Suwei and Zhengu. The Suwei and Guards included the Qixue Army and the personal guards, which were the central imperial guards controlled by the emperor. The Shuwei and Junshi were the troops dispatched by the Privy Council.

The protection of Kyoto in the Yuan Dynasty was based on the two armies. The personal army and the Qyxue army were both central garrison troops, but in terms of their duties, the Qyxue army was responsible for the emperor's security and the defense of the palace, and generally did not go out to fight. As the elite troops under the emperor's control, the personal army was stationed in the capital and the surrounding areas. They usually trained farms and served as the garrison task of the capital and the garrison, and went on a concentrated battle during the war. This time, I went to fight against Zhang Shicheng, and specially recruited tens of thousands of troops from the capital, and then some of them were drawn from the prince's mansions. In addition, various provinces also transferred some of them to gather hundreds of thousands of troops. In order to intimidate the rebels in various places, Tyxue claimed to be a million troops.

However, Tutuo knew the way to use troops. Although there were many troops this time, most of them were recruited by various provinces. As the commander, he must not send troops before he knew his military power. For this reason, Tutuo dared to ask the court for this abandoned training ground to train troops. On the one hand, let the soldiers know the generals and the generals know the soldiers, and on the other hand, let these soldiers from all over the country be proficient in the key points of marching and fighting. Don’t go to the battlefield, it is like a mess.

Tuotuo thought about his thoughts alone, but he ignored Ru Zhongbai beside him.

When Ru Zhongbai saw that Tuotuo didn't say anything, he didn't say anything. The two followed the soldier step by step into the training ground. When they entered the training ground, they saw flags waving and cannons were everywhere. The deputy general who was ordered to go out to fight was training tirelessly. Hala, who was very burly and determined, was talented. He could ride and shoot, and was good at adjusting bows. He was highly valued by Tuotuo. This time Tuotuo named him and asked him to follow the battle. These new recruits Tuotuo were very relieved to him. The Hala was already good at training soldiers. When the flag soldiers waved the flags and horns sounded, the trumpets of the army were waving their hands, and the trumpets of the army sounded. It was really similar. These troops drawn from various places came to the hands of the Hala. After his training, they really had the momentum of a strong army.

The three armies moved with the roster, and the momentum was like a roar of swords and guns, and the wind and clouds were surging. Ru Zhongbai was a literati and had never seen military training. In the past, he only talked about a group of friends in the army. Unexpectedly, seeing this momentum today, he felt that Zhang Shicheng was hopeless.

"Congratulations to the Prime Minister for getting this good general. If Lord Ha trains troops, why worry about rebels from the thief!" Ru Zhongbai looked at Tutuo happily.

Tuotuo was also very relieved. At first, he was worried that Hassan could train this miscellaneous army of dragon fish. Now, seeing only this training formation, he felt a sense of the spirit of Taizu fighting the world in the past. He couldn't help but nod and said to himself: "This Hassan is indeed a skill!"

The sage at the training ground saw Tuotuo and Ru Zhongbai entering the training ground from afar. After ordering the horns of the three armies, he hurriedly sent the casual sword to the guards beside him: "Hold it?" The guard was sent by him in a hurry. He grinned and held the sword "Tengteng" three steps back before he stopped with a red face. Has sniffed and cursed: "Damn, I can't even hold a knife. Why can't I go to the battlefield to fight? I haven't retreated to the side and trained hard!"

The guard blushed, bowed his body with difficulty, and pushed it away with a big knife.

Hassan cursed twice, ignored it, and threw his arms away from him and walked towards Tuotuo. When he walked to Tuotuo, he knelt on the ground with one leg, hugged his fists, and said aloud: "My general Hassan greeted the Prime Minister and the Censor?"

Tuotuo was happy that he was good at training troops and smiled, saying, "General Ha, don't be polite to speak!"

"Yes!" Hassan responded, and he was not polite. He stood up with a loud voice. The gust of wind that was driven by him almost rushed to the ground. Thinking of the big knife in his hand just now, Ru Zhongbai was secretly frightened.

Tuotuo smiled happily and said, "This time, the matter of extermination of the rebel Zhang Shicheng, everything is gone, General Ha, you must be successful in your loyalty. Training this army well, and when you follow your loyalty and eliminate the rebel Zhang Shicheng, you will definitely be promoted to you before Your Majesty!"

Hassas was excited and said excitedly: "Prime Minister, please rest assured. I will do my best to kill Zhang Shicheng and live up to the high expectations of the Prime Minister!"

"Okay, okay... okay...?" Tuotuo was inexplicably happy.

Seeing that Tuotuo valued Hatsu so much, he only saw Ru Zhongbai, who came with him to parade, and couldn't help laughing and said, "General Ha has really seen a big advantage this time. With a million troops in hand, with Zhang Shicheng's little force, General Ha must have made a profit and will definitely not lose. It's no problem to be promoted to the title in the future. Here I wish Mr. Ha will succeed!"

Hassan is a warrior, not so many intestines, and he didn't hear the sour taste in Ru Zhongbai's words. He heard what he said was nice, and he laughed and said, "After the auspicious words of Lord Censor, the lower officials will fight hard to kill the enemy and live up to the expectations of the two of them!" But Tuotuo, who was beside him, heard the sour taste in Ru Zhongbai's words. Both of them were his confidants. He didn't want the two to fight in the nest. He frowned slightly and glanced at Ru Zhongbai and said unhappy: "Lord Censor thinks that the more soldiers, the better?"

Ru Zhongbai heard the displeasure in Tuotuo's tone, but according to his opinion, a million troops are much stronger than a hundred thousand troops. Therefore, although he heard Tuotuo's tone was unhappy, he still couldn't help saying: "The method of using troops is to surround them ten times, attack them five times, fight them twice, and fight them twice, and the enemy can divide them, and the less, and escape them, and avoid them. Therefore, the hardness of a small enemy is the capture of a big enemy. The more troops the better?"

Tuotuo shook his head with some regret. Tuotuo was helpless about these weak scholars who only knew how to read military books and did not know how to use them flexibly. Although Tuotuo was familiar with military books, he knew that military tactics were dead and tactics were alive. Otherwise, Zhao Kuo would not have been known for the eternal infamy of the Battle of Changping. Moreover, Han Xin, the god of war in the Han Dynasty, had long said that only he used troops to make the better. Not everyone had the ability to lead an army of hundreds of thousands and millions, and his talent was as talented as Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang, once said that he could only lead at most.

There are only a hundred thousand people, and no matter how many, it will exceed his ability to lead troops. So if you think that the more troops on the battlefield, the better, then you are very wrong! "Tutuo could not have imagined that Ru Zhongbai, who has always been smart, would make such a stupid mistake. But Ru Zhongbai was his confidant after all, and he was loyal to him. After leaving the court, he had to rely more on him for a long time on all matters in the court. He was not convenient to blame him for a moment. He sighed and said, "The way to use troops is determined to flexibly use them. If he composes them according to the military scholars, he will suffer a great loss in the end?"

Ru Zhongbai respected Tuotuo very much. He heard what he said, and he should respond. He hurriedly bowed and said, "What the Prime Minister said is that the lower officials have received the teachings!"

Tutuo ignored Ru Zhongbai's flattery, but instead turned his eyes to the army of hundreds of thousands, and thought to himself: "Zhang Shicheng's troops are just refugees, only tens of thousands, and millions of troops go to him. He must take Zhang Shicheng down in one fell swoop. However, this is really worrying when His Majesty arranged a Han vanguard official?"
