Volume Seven: Flying Dragon Army, Flying Dragon Army! Chapter 21 I want to fly higher
A group of marshals were fighting over each other to grab the Feilong Army. Geng Ling just watched from the side without saying a word. Just when everyone was about to get angry, her mother said: "Everyone, it's better not to fight. In my opinion, it's better." Listen to Commander Geng¡¯s words.¡±
When everyone thought that this was indeed true, they all asked Geng Ling: "What does General Geng think?"
Geng Ling smiled slightly and said: "No matter which country our Feilong Army is stationed in, of course we have the obligation to defend the city for you. You can rest assured about this."
Hearing what he had said before everyone, everyone became even more impatient. Wei Teng said: "Then General Geng might as well tell your army's request."
Geng Ling said: "We currently have a small number of Feilong Army, but the newly captured 180,000 war horses are a large number, so you must ensure that the supply of food and grass is sufficient."
Wei Teng said: "Of course this is not a problem. If your army comes to our country of Wei, I dare not tell you if there are more. I can ensure that you will provide three months of food and grass first."
Zhong Ping said: "Our country of Yan is the same."
Dou Zhang and several other marshals also said anxiously: "We can afford three months of food and grass."
Geng Ling smiled and said: "Thank you very much, then I'm not polite -" He turned back to Xiao Yan and said, "You must remember the names and countries of the marshals. From now on, they will be our parents."
Xiao Yan said: "Yes!"
Wei Teng said: "So what is General Geng's final decision?"
Geng Ling said: "I have decided to settle here to form the first line of defense against Heggis. No matter which of your countries is attacked in the future, it will be convenient for us to respond."
Chen Que said: "Are you not going to any country?"
Geng Ling said: "We are defending at the border to protect the cities from danger. Isn't that good? If we are stationed in a certain country's city, our reinforcements will not be able to rush to the rescue quickly when another country is attacked. Think about it, is this the case? reason?"
After everyone thought it was reasonable, Geng Ling said again: "Of course, this is also a matter of eating people and being loyal. Our army needs to rely on you more." The meaning of this is very clear, whoever pays will help. The prices are clearly marked, and the marshals of various countries feel that they have been deceived, but there is no guarantee that the Heggis army will not come back. The money must be spent, and to be fair, the money is still well spent. , and now they all had to say: "Easy to say, easy to say."
Mom pulled Geng Ling aside and said: "Commander Geng, if you don't go to the city and station yourself, the army will be exposed on the border without any obstruction. If the Hegiz army launches a large-scale sneak attack, it will only end in a fight to the death. Do you think this is appropriate?"
Geng Ling heard that his mother was really worried about the future of the Feilong Army, and was moved and said: "I have also thought about the general's doubts, but I think so - Heggis has realized that we have experienced this defeat. With the combat power of the Feilong Army, if they want to overturn the situation on us, they will need at least Qin Yiwu's entire army to dispatch, and Wu Sizhong will probably have to send him additional manpower, which means that if they want to ensure victory, they will almost need all their troops. 70% to 80% pressure is enough. Now the Honglie Empire is eyeing it. Will Qin Yiwu and Wu Sizhong let Shi Cundao reap the benefits? So I think they won't take action in the short term. Our Feilong Army is a small fish, but they are a big fish. Setting up a big net, is it worth giving up a big net for a small fish? This is my consideration."
Mom said: "You are right to think so, but it is still too risky, and it is not a long-term solution."
Geng Ling said: "As for the long-term solution, I think this is it - it would be best if Hegis could withdraw his troops. If they still insist on fighting, they will have to return home to dispatch reinforcements. At that time, we will not be able to make any next plan." Night."
At this moment, several Allied soldiers escorted a man to us. They said they were escorting him, but in fact, they were supporting him. The man was covered in blood, and the calf bone of his right leg was broken. Wearing a set of armor that he had never seen before, he should be a soldier. The allied soldier said: "Reporting to the marshals, we have captured a spy from the Guo Kingdom. He said he wanted to see the general of the daughter country."
The Guo Kingdom betrayed the alliance long before Hegis officially sent troops. Everyone heard that they were hostile and moved out of the way. The Guo soldier looked at his mother and jumped up. Ma Jing was the first to push him away. On the ground, he said angrily: "Do you want to assassinate me?"
The Guo soldier lay on the ground and cried hoarsely: "General, help me -"
Mom said: "What's going on?"
The Guo soldier cried loudly and said: "The bastards of Hegis retreated into our Guo country. In order to vent their anger on the defeat, they started massacring the city. Our emperor and the marshal were caught off guard and were killed by them. Now they are in our Guo country." WantonHarming the people, burning, killing, looting and doing anything - General, for the sake of everyone belonging to the alliance, go and save them! "
When everyone heard this, they were suddenly stunned. Except for a few soldiers who showed unbearable expressions, most of them were gloating about the misfortune.
Mom said: "How many people are there in the enemy army? Where is your army?"
"There are about 20,000 enemy troops, and our army only has more than 5,000 people in total. As soon as the marshal died, most of the remaining troops were killed by them. Some of them fled around and became thieves who committed all kinds of evil. I fought to the death from the city. I jumped down just to beg the general to move reinforcements."
Chen Que stepped forward and spat at him: "You deserve it! If your Guo country hadn't betrayed the alliance, how would you have ended up today? That emperor of yours is famous for his dissoluteness and immorality. Didn't your Marshal Wang always give Are the Heggis trying to flatter you? Why did your master kill him too?"
The Guo soldier said: "Marshal Wang gave them good intentions. Unexpectedly, the other party suddenly turned against him and said that Guo and the Seventeen Kingdoms were collaborating. Destroying Guo would mean wiping out a part of the alliance's strength. In the future, they would Kill the other seventeen countries one by one!"
Chen Que put his hand on the handle of the knife and said: "Have a good death! If the Hegis don't kill him, we will kill him sooner or later!" At this moment, Fatty Chen's face was full of righteousness and awe-inspiring. Others applauded him again and again, and even more so. An inviolable and sacred look.
The Guo soldier looked at his mother and lamented: "General, no matter how wrong I, the Emperor and the Marshal, are, the common people are innocent!"
Mom looked around and said calmly: "Do you want to save me or not?"
Wei Teng said: "He said that something happened in the Guo Kingdom. Who knows whether it is true or not. General, be careful of fraud."
The Guo soldier was furious when he heard this. He threw himself at Wei Teng and cursed, "I cheated your grandma!" Wei Teng knocked him to the ground with a punch, pulled out his knife and said, "I'll kill you first!" Geng Ling held his hand and said, "Wait a minute!" Wei Teng took the knife back when he saw him talking.
The Guo soldier was on the verge of despair. When he saw Geng Ling, he felt like he had found the last straw. He hugged Geng Ling's legs and shouted with all his strength: "General, go and save our Guo country!"
Geng Ling lifted him up with one hand and handed him over to Wu Ying and Xiao Yan. He then said to everyone: "Marshals, this man is right. The emperor and generals of Guo are stupid but the people are innocent. If you don't save me, I will." ."
Wei Teng said: "General Geng, be careful of falling into a trap."
Geng Ling said: "What tricks can 20,000 people use? Even if this is a conspiracy set by them, the Feilong Army is not afraid. If it is like what he said, we happened to be stationed in Guo after annihilating the Hegis stragglers. Everyone Don¡¯t worry, the agreement between us will continue to be valid. If Hegis wants to invade you, he must first get past our line of defense.¡±
Seeing that there was no need to send troops themselves, the marshals of various countries stopped talking.
Mom said: "I also want to go with Commander Geng and visit the military power of our Feilong Army. Isn't it convenient?"
Zhang Qianhu said: "I'll go too!"
Geng Ling said: "Welcome, but General Zhang doesn't need to take his troops with him if he wants to go."
At that moment, the allied troops returned to their own countries, and someone took the horse. Geng Ling personally helped the Guo soldier onto the horse and said, "Brother, I'm very sorry. This Hegis defeat was all caused by our Feilong Army. The people of Guo Kingdom It can be said that we are also responsible for the disaster."
The man sighed and said, "General Geng, don't say that. This is our own consequences. How can we blame others?"
Geng Ling called the Feilong Army to assemble and march towards the Guo Kingdom. The soldiers had horses, and they were all as lively as children with new toys. Ma Jing and Kumei frowned when they saw it. Geng Ling brought a dozen barbarian leaders to introduce to his mother. These people were all covered in animal skins and had various weapons hung in the small warehouse in front of the horse. They looked extremely fierce. They were respectful in front of Geng Ling. At this time When they met the generals of the daughter country, they looked at her one by one without any awe. One of the leaders with tattoos on his face said rudely: "Hey, we help you fight because we admire Geng Ling, but not because we are convinced." You." Others agreed, and my mother was not angry. She smiled and said: "Everyone has contributed to the country this time. I will definitely give you a generous reward from Her Majesty the Queen. As long as you don't invade the people in the country in the future, we will also respect your nation. custom."
The leader with flowers was stunned and said: "Reward? How much can you give?"
"Well, it depends on what you want."
The leader said: "It's good to have rice and flour, but the most important thing is wine."
Mom smiled and said, "Okay, I remember."
At this time, the Guo soldier suddenly said: "As for wine, the wine we brew in Guo is famous all over the world. It's a pity that HegisThose bastards smashed and looted, and they didn¡¯t know how much was left. "
After hearing this, the leader said sadly: "Oh, you didn't tell me earlier! Geng Ling, can we leave quickly?" Geng Ling persuaded them to settle down, and said to his mother in a state of laughter and tears: "These guys are addicted to alcohol. However, the craftsmanship is very fashionable, and the wine produced is either sour or bitter, and in the end we can only plunder the prefectures and counties."
Mom said: "You spent a lot of time taming these people, didn't you?"
Geng Ling said: "Yes, but speaking of it, they can also be regarded as the enlightenment teachers of our Feilong Army. Many methods of dealing with cavalry are learned from them."
I suddenly said: "This includes the horse-capturing technique you used today, right?" Geng Ling smiled and nodded.
Wu Ying said worriedly: "Brother Geng, when it comes to fighting on the plains, our Feilong Army is invincible, but this time we are attacking Guo State, but we have neither experience nor tools."
Geng Ling said: "Don't worry, Guo State is not Hejis's new capital, so it won't be difficult to defeat."
Mom said: "Zhang Qianhu has already reported to me in detail the battle history of your army -" She looked around, but Zhang Qianhu was not there, so she continued, "Based on her report, I will help you analyze a few points. Is General Geng interested in hearing about the shortcomings?"
Geng Ling hurriedly said: "Please give me some advice, General."
Mom said: "Zhang Qianhu said that when your army fights, everyone strives to be first. Thisit sounds a bit like a swarm of bees. Of course, the formation is out of the question, and even the organization is very chaotic."
I hurriedly said: "This can only be said to be the legacy I left behind."
Mom said: "The organization chaos I'm talking about doesn't mean the unit organization, but the functional organization. An army is divided into three divisions, and a division has six regiments. Then the functions of the regiments should be complementary and they should all rush forward. Isn¡¯t it a waste?¡±
Geng Ling said in surprise: "It turns out that the general even understands our organization."
Mom continued: "Also, your weapons are too simple, but this is understandable. You are short of supplies, so there is nothing you can do about it."
Geng Ling said with admiration: "What the general said is what I think I am lacking in. I come from a wild background and don't know anything about formations. Our soldiers all went to the battlefield after learning martial arts for a few days. Many people still regard war as a swarm, it is not an exaggeration to say it is a swarm of swarms.¡±
My mother said: "If you don't mind, Commander Geng, I have a few books on military strategy. I will ask someone to deliver them to you when I get back. In terms of supplies, I will provide them to your Feilong Army according to the configuration of our Feifeng Army. As for Let¡¯s discuss more about such subtle issues as functional establishment when we have time.¡±
Geng Ling also felt that something was not right at this moment - it was enough that the general, as the highest official representative of his daughter's mother-in-law, did not despise these "non-mainstream" armed forces of his own, so he devoted all his efforts to care and support. Something is obviously not normal. Geng Ling was quite tactful in battle, but he was a straightforward man. He couldn't help but ask: "Why does the General love our Feilong Army so much?"
My mother smiled and said: "The reason is very simple. Carrying 200 kilograms of stones alone is already overwhelmed. Now someone takes the initiative to help me. Of course I am very happy."
Zhang Ganhu was not with his mother. It turned out that he was chatting with Yu Manli. Yu Manli was not good at riding yet, so she pulled the reins awkwardly. His door panel sword was pulled by a separate horse-drawn carriage behind him. Zhang Ganhu She kept looking at his knife and then at him, as if curious. Yu Manli looked at her nose and nose and asked. Zhang Ganhu asked him: "How much does your knife weigh?" Yu Manli hesitated: "This, I haven't weighed myself before." Zhang Fanhu asked again: "Is the messenger still smooth?" Yu Manli said: "Not bad" Zhang Fanhu asked tirelessly: "Then how tall are you?" What Yu Manli is most afraid of is Talking to a woman, she was already on the verge of collapse. Her voice was inaudible: "I'm taller than you"
I almost laughed out loud when I heard this. I poked Wu Ying hard and said, "Hey, that guy Yu Manli is trying to pick up girls."
Wu Ying sighed and said, "I'm afraid he was picked up by a girl?"
I couldn¡¯t help but laugh and said, ¡°Why are you sighing? Are you mentally unbalanced?¡±
Wu Ying blushed, and Xiao Yan said: "Brother Long, please stop joking with him. The men in our daughter's country are allvery orthodox."
I couldn't help it anymore and laughed loudly, stretched out my finger and said to Su Jing: "Girl, let me give you a smile." Su Jing glared at me and ran forward. I said to Wu Ying and Xiao Yan, "See No, men should be like this!"
Wu Ying and Xiao Yan quickly lowered their heads together and murmured: "How shameless!"
¡¡
The throne of Guo State??In the middle of the four kingdoms of Zhao, Wei, Yan, and Han, it is the country closest to the Black Forest on the federal continent. Its geographical location is very sensitive, but it is not important. That is because it is not next to the four kingdoms of Zhao, Wei, Yan, and Han. It is a relative* * country, so after Zhang Qianhu was betrayed by Guo State last time, Heigis was able to pass through Guo State and surround Feifeng Army. In the Eighteen-Nation Alliance, Guo State is a typical small country. The reason why it is said is that compared with quasi-small countries such as Chen State and Zheng State, Guo State has a total population of less than 200,000 and only one city. Chen State and Zheng State have their capitals. It is much larger than it, and in the Eighteen-Nation Alliance, there are many small countries like Guo, so there are only eleven or two countries that can really send troops to fight against Hegis. Compared with Chen Guo, they are both It is considered a superpower. Such a small country has been able to avoid being annexed entirely because of the mutual constraints of the eighteen countries. For example, if Qi wants to annex, Zhao, Wei, Yan, and Han around Guo will certainly not stand idly by, but Zhao, Wei, Yan, and Han want to carve up Guo, and more than a dozen other countries I can't agree either. Over the years, Guo has lived a very comfortable life because it has not posed a threat to others. Once the country's status is low, it doesn't have to worry about the impact of anything it does like other big countries. Maybe it's this kind of mentality that leads to it. Surrendering to Hedges will lead to the wolf entering the house.
After Guo State defected from the alliance, someone at the high-level meeting of the Feifeng Army proposed sending troops for conquest, but my mother vetoed it because they were afraid of causing misunderstandings among the other seventeen countries. The Eighteen-Nation Alliance existed as a whole for a long time. If The Feifeng Army's rash attack could easily lead other countries to think that the daughter country was killing chickens to scare the monkeys to show off its power, which would lead to discord, which would be bad.
When we arrived outside the city of Guo State, we saw a shallow city standing on the Gobi. As far as the eye could see, it covered the east and west city walls. Although the head of the city had been replaced by the Hegesian flag, there were only a few hundred soldiers guarding it. When they saw us using the banner of the Feilong Army, they were so frightened that they all hid behind the battlements.
Wu Ying looked at the closed city gate and asked Geng Ling: "Commander, how can we attack the city if we don't have any siege equipment?"
I said, ¡°How about I go and open the city gate for you?¡±
Geng Ling said: "Since it is inconvenient for you to take action, it is better to look at the brothers, otherwise it will be our fault if the four great national masters retaliate." In fact, the city wall of Guo Kingdom is much lower than that of other countries, and there are only a few hundred defenders on the city. It was just a simple task for Ku Mei, but she deliberately didn't speak, so it was hard for me to give her orders at this time.
Geng Ling ordered Wu Ying: "Go and gather all the swordsman-level brothers in the army and find two thousand swordsmen."
Not long after everyone arrived, Geng Ling pointed to the city head opposite and said: "Brothers, the defenders on the opposite side are not worth mentioning. The key is how to get up to their tower. Now I have to force everyone to build two human ladders, and then Let the brothers who are good at qinggong use the human ladder to fly up!"
