Chapter 591 The best defense is offense

Early the next morning, Gayao left Gubian.

Yunzheng also began to actively mobilize troops to prepare for war.

Since the enemy wants to fight, let's fight!

Anyway, the Beifu Army has enough food and grass.

Get started first!

"Order: Dugu Ce immediately dispatched a hundred students from the Military Academy to Gubian. If they don't arrive within five days, they will all be killed!"

"Order: Fu Tianyan, Qu Zhi, and Feng Yu, immediately prepare troops and horses, carry grain, grass and supplies, and station on the west side of Muma Grassland! Build a camp on the spot!"

"Order: Deng Bao will lead his troops and horses, carry grain, grass and supplies, and station at Yanhuishan Camp!"

"Order: Zuo Ren immediately mobilizes five thousand soldiers from Beilu Pass and travels lightly. They must arrive at Dingbei within ten days! Wei Yu will temporarily take over as the guard of Beilu Pass!"

"Gao He, Zhou Mi, you two immediately prepare 20,000 reserve troops and head to Dingbei early tomorrow morning to escort the grain and grass..."

"..."

One after another orders came from Yunzheng's mouth.

Listening to Yun Zheng's order, everyone couldn't help but feel frightened.

No one knew how far Yunzheng wanted to fight this time.

But just by listening to Yunzheng's orders, you know that this is definitely a big battle!

The scale of this battle should be the largest since Yunzheng took charge of the Beifu Army.

According to Yun Zheng's order, if the reserve army is also included, the number of people dispatched in this battle may reach 100,000.

They are not a civilian army with 40,000 combat troops and 60,000 soldiers.

Even the reserve army of the Beifu Army can basically be regarded as elite troops if placed elsewhere.

In an instant, the tense atmosphere of an imminent war filled the air.

Vaguely, everyone was a little excited.

If you win this victory, you will be able to expand your territory!

Although they have made great achievements in Beihuan, no one can have too much contribution in opening up new territories!

After the generals took their orders and left, Qin Qihu was still looking at Yunzheng eagerly.

However, until the end, Yunzheng did not arrange a task for Qin Qihu.

Seeing that Yun Zheng was about to leave, Qin Qihu quickly took Lu Xing to stop Yun Zheng, "Brother, why don't you have anything to do with us? Our war horses and armor have just been finished, and I still want to show off my power, you... "

"No hurries?"

Yun Zheng looked at Qin Qihu with a smile, "Don't I have a mission myself?"

"what?"

Qin Qihu was slightly startled and looked at Yunzheng without knowing why.

However, Lu Xing reacted quickly and immediately understood what Yun Zheng meant, and immediately told Qin Qihu, who was eager to fight: "Your Highness means that the blood-clothed army should stay with him and serve him!"

"Really?"

Qin Qihu's eyes suddenly lit up, and the gloom on his face disappeared instantly.

"Why not?"

Yunzheng glanced at Qin Qihu and said, "General Dugu and the others haven't arrived yet? Why are you so anxious? I have invested a lot of money in the Blood-clothed Army. Do you think I will let the Blood-clothed Army watch the fun?"

This tough guy is a typical militant.

I even transferred Zuo Ren from Beilu Pass!

Can we still forget the Bloody Clothes Army?

After learning Yun Zheng's plan, Qin Qihu suddenly turned from worry to joy. He immediately called Lu Xing back to camp without saying anything to Yun Zheng, intending to train the blood-coated army before the war started.

The Bloody Clothes Army is the most elite unit of the Beifu Army.

No matter what, we must show off the majesty of the blood-coated army!

Soon, the messengers galloped out from Gubian, rushing to convey Yun Zheng's orders in all directions.

With the transmission of these orders, Shuobei's war machine will quickly start operating.

While waiting for Dugu Ce and others to arrive, Yunzheng took people to visit other places.

Over the past few days, Yun Zheng dealt with many people who had been thrown to Sanbian City by buying offices, and he gained a wave of hearts.

Four days later, Dugu Ce led a hundred students to rush to Gubian.

After Yunzheng got the news, he immediately took people back to Gubian.

Before Dugu Ce and the others could salute, Yun Zheng raised his hand to stop them, "Time is running out, let's keep the story short!"

"Yes!"

Everyone accepted the order and acted like they were all ears.

"Tong Gang!"

Yun Zheng raised his eyes and looked at Tong Gang, "These one hundred students are left to you!"

"Yes!"

Tong Gang took the order.

Yun Zheng had already told him about this matter before.

He would use these 100 people as a framework, and then transfer 4,000 people from the reserve army, plus Yunzheng's original personal guards, to form a total 5,000-strong personal guard army.

It's not that Yunzheng needs so many people to protect him, but he needs to fight instead of training.

If prisoners are captured, these people must be dispersed. Using these people as a framework, the enemy prisoners can be incorporated into their troops to form a larger servant army.

With these people as the framework, the servant army cannot get into chaos.

Yunzheng's idea is simple.

Try to kill as few people as possible and do your best.

Soon, Tong Gang took the one hundred people down.

After Tong Gang and the others left, Dugu Ce said worriedly: "Your Highness, are we making too much noise this time? With so many people dispatched, our food and grass may be consumed uncontrollably!"

Dugu Ce has already understood Yunzheng's arrangement.

According to Yun Zheng's arrangement, the number of troops they will invest in this battle will reach more than 100,000.

If the war lasts for a long time, a large number of field soldiers and reserve troops will definitely be deployed in the later stage to escort the grain and grass.

In this way, their food consumption will be extremely terrifying.

Dugu Ce is relatively clear about the situation in Shuobei.

They have no shortage of food and grass for the time being.

But after this battle, Shuobei may be in a situation of food shortage.

"fine."

Yun Zheng smiled slyly, "We don't have food and grass, so we can go grab it! According to my arrangement, when we start a war with the enemy, it should be when the enemy country is busy with its autumn harvest!"

The enemy’s autumn harvest is their food.

Listening to Yun Zheng's words, Dugu Ce couldn't help but be slightly startled.

After a brief moment of confusion, Dugu Ce said in astonishment: "Your Highness sent so many people, could it be to snatch food from the enemy country and escort them back?"

"That's definitely the idea."

Yunzheng nodded and smiled, "Since those three countries are so restless, let's not be polite to them! When they are also short of food, I will see if they can still run!"

"Haha, it turns out His Highness is waiting for them here."

Dugu Ce smiled with sudden realization, and then said worriedly: "But we have concentrated all the troops in the front, and the troops in the rear are very empty. If the enemy's surprise troops attack, our rear may be in danger! "

"The risk is definitely there."

Yun Zheng nodded and said: "So, I want to strike first so that they don't have the chance to organize a surprise attack on our rear!"

"Well, that's the truth." Dugu Ce pondered for a moment, "But the general thinks that our laborious expedition will ultimately be disadvantageous to us! Wouldn't it be more advantageous for our army to defend well and wait for work at leisure?"

"Your idea does make sense." Yun Zheng nodded in agreement, and suddenly changed the subject, "However, in my opinion, the best defense is offense!"

The best defense is offense?

Dugu Ce was surprised, but secretly sighed in his heart.

It seems that I am really old and not as enterprising as young people like them.

Whatever!

Since Yunzheng wants to attack, let's attack!
