Chapter 682 Zhang Ruoqi's Doubt
In Ningyuan City, in the Xingyuan Hall of the Governor of Jiliao, Hong Chengchou sat on the big chair with a calm expression on his face.

On the other hand, Zhang Ruoqi, the supervisor of the army, and Ma Shaoyu, who joined the army, held their heads high and their chests held high, their faces full of complacency.

The rest of the officials and generals have different complexions, some are angry and anxious, some are sighing, and some are calm as water, and so on.

"Advancing troops immediately" is the decision of the Holy Majesty!

It is beyond human power to change it. All the officials in Liaodong, including Hong Chengchou, governor of Jiliao, can only resolutely implement it. There is no other way.

Everyone discussed the matter of launching the army. According to the current situation in Liaodong, the main danger for Wang Shi to march is the Song and Xing areas behind Tashan City.

According to the arrangement of the governor Hong Chengchou, the hills and mountains in the Xingshan area are more dangerous, and it is possible to go there by foot camp or car camp, and set up a camp to guard against danger.

As for the road to Songshan Fort, the terrain is slightly flat, which is conducive to the travel of cavalry, and the towns of Dakebu formed formations and camps here.

Hong Chengchou personally presided over the war in Liaodong for more than a year, and he knew the local situation very well, so when he formed his troops, everyone naturally had no objection.

but……

Still, some expressed deep concern.

…………

Chen Jiugao, the former commander of the Shenji Battalion, couldn't help turning his head to look at Zhang Cheng.

During this period of time, the officers and soldiers of the various towns practiced together, but the generals of the various towns often got together to drink together, especially Chen Jiugao and Wang Pu often invited Zhang Cheng and Wu Sangui to the camp.

The topic of drinking and drinking is naturally inseparable from the Liaodong military.

They also often discussed various tactics such as four-way attack and one-way advance, and Zhang Cheng said that what he was most worried about was the safety of the army's food and roads.

At the beginning, the few people didn't pay much attention to it, but they could hear Zhang Cheng's description that after the grain road was blocked, the morale of the army would inevitably be unstable.

If at that time the elite cavalry of the Dongnu lay down beside the return road and attacked suddenly, the men and horses would trample on each other, and none of our soldiers would be spared.

As a result, every time this matter was mentioned, everyone was very worried, even Wu Sangui, a leader in Liaodong, was also secretly shocked, and they were also worried about Zhang Cheng's worries.

Sure enough, Wang Pu beside Chen Jiugao also opened his mouth wide, staring at Zhang Cheng with wide eyes.

The two of them saw that the governor Hong Chengchou had been slow to talk about the future, and they didn't even mention how to arrange the defenders in Xingshan and other important grain roads.

Seeing Zhang Cheng sitting silently, Wang Pu poked Chen Jiugao who was next to him, and winked at him for a while. Chen Jiugao also coughed repeatedly, but still failed to make Zhang Cheng look this way.

Chen Jiugao couldn't bear it at last, he took the initiative to bring up the matter, and said: "Minister, I have something to ask at the end. There is a saying that 'there is no way to plan poison than to run out of food', my army will advance together, if slaves copy the way out, How can the army ensure that the food road is safe if it disturbs my food road?"

Hong Chengchou's face was calm and gentle, and he didn't seem to mind Chen Jiugao's intervention.

However, before he could answer this question, a strange voice came from beside him: "According to Chen Zongbing's intention, after our army arrives at Xingshan Fort, can we still divide our troops?"

Chen Jiugao looked angrily, but it was Tang Tong, the commander in chief of Miyun who was four seats away from him.

I saw that although he was still smiling on the surface, his tone was unbearable and he continued: "There are more and more slave soldiers, if the whole division is overwhelmed, and then forced to camp with chariots, it may be possible to take care of both the battle and the defense.

If the army is divided and the slaves break down one by one, will Chen Zongbing take this responsibility? "

Chen Jiugao was furious in his heart. Tang Tong, the fucking bastard, had a great time calling him brother and brother when he was having a feast with him, and even said that he would take him to find his mother-in-law and aunt to be happy, but now he changed his face in the blink of an eye.

"Damn it, a villain!"

Although he was extremely angry in his heart, he still had a smile on his face. He took off his helmet, blew on the dust that didn't exist on it, and flicked the hair that fell in front of him to the back of his head. Put on your helmet.

Then he opened his mouth and said: "It's inappropriate to say what Tang Zongbing said. I was completely concerned about the safety of my tens of thousands of troops. How come it came to Tang Zongbing's mouth, and this unfounded charge was piled up on me, Mr. Chen Nine's head?
We don't have Qin Hui here! "

Tang Tong was scolded by him for a while, his face was very embarrassed, he stood up abruptly, and said in a serious tone: "Chen Jiugao, who are you talking about is Qin Hui?"

After all, Chen Jiugao was born in the Beijing camp and had a lot of friends. He had never seen any high-ranking officials before, so how could he be afraid of Tang Tong.

He squinted at each other, and said: "We didn't talk like this, someone has a ghost in his heart, so it's hard to tell if he's right in his seat!"

Tang Tong was furious for a while, and was about to explode, but he heard Wang Pu, the general soldier of Datong who was beside Chen Jiugao, say, "Hey, everyone should calm down. General Chen is also considering the safety of the army's food road. If there is no food and grass, We big guys are going to eat the northwest wind."

The generals in the hall also tried to persuade them, and Ma Kegeng, the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan, came over and got up to smooth things over. Finally, Tang Tong sat back in his chair angrily, but there was a fierce glint in his eyes looking at Chen Jiugao.

For the fighting among the warriors, all the civil servants present turned a blind eye to it.

In fact, they are happy to hear about it. After all, if these warriors hold military power, if they are joined together as a monolith, how can they control them?

Zhang Ruoqi, the supervising army, saw that everyone was at peace and the disputes gradually subsided, so he said: "General Chen Jiugao pointed out the rear route of grain and grass. I don't know if Hong Du has any relevant arrangements?"

Hong Chengchou looked calm, he smiled and said, "Naturally, according to the governor's proposal, Qian Youlu, the forward commander of the command office, Dou Chenglie, the general patrol officer, Zheng Yilin, the deputy general of Xingshan Road,
Together with the deputy officers of the Songxing Defense Battalion, Xia Chengde, Chi Fenggao, Tong Hanbang, Wang Jiaji, Yu Yingxuan and others,
The more superintendent Liu Zhaoji, the commander-in-chief of Liaodong, stationed troops in the forts of Xingshan, which will surely protect our army from the rear and prevent the slave bandits from attacking from the wilderness in the northwest of Xingshan. "

Everyone was thinking after hearing the words, but Zhang Cheng shook his head secretly: there are too few soldiers!

It sounds like there are many generals, but most of these battalions are one or two thousand people. Although there are many generals, the total number of sergeants is less than thirty thousand.

And they are not strong enough, they are all guards in the local castles in Liao Town, and there is only a small number of battalions. If you eliminate the weak and old, how many soldiers can fight?
In the original history, Hong Chengchou, the governor of Jiliao, made such an arrangement. However, after the arrival of the slave chieftain Huang Taiji, under the mad attack of the slave army, he couldn't even hold on for half an hour. The connection was cut off by the slave thief.

Even Zhang Ruoqi, who is known as a well-known soldier, also saw this. He frowned slightly and said, "How many generals from the towns will join us?"
