Chapter 52: The Excited General Decided to Go North
"Very good, I think everyone has not forgotten our goal! Now that we have strong soldiers and horses, sharp weapons, and basically sufficient food and grass, it is the time to defeat Xianbei. What do you think?"
"I agree..." Upon hearing this, the military commanders all made a statement with a roar, and their movements were as neat as if they had discussed it. It's no wonder that they haven't gone into battle to kill the enemy for more than a year, and they are almost sick. Now they heard that Chen Yaotian was interested.
Starting a war will bring green light to everyone's eyes.
"Lord, last time you left me in Shanggu to fight with those rubbish family private soldiers, you have to take me with you this time!" Ju Yi said impatiently.
"Lord, give me the vanguard position this time..." Yan Liang reacted quickly and began to compete for the position of accompanying the army.
"Brother Yan Liang, you are too unkind! You were the striker last time, but you still want to do it this time! In my opinion, it is my turn to be the striker this time." Wen Chou was the one who spoke.
"Why is it your turn, Wen Chou? Am I, Gao Lan, not worthy of being a striker?"
…
"Stop arguing, calm down..." Chen Yaotian looked at the commotion below, shook his head, and called out to stop it.
"What do you think? Tell us." Chen Yaotian asked the civil servant camp.
"Lord, although we have a large amount of surplus food, it is more than enough to launch a war. However, Xianbei grew up on horseback and has strong combat power. In addition to the old and weak, there are also 100,000 armored men. But we only have 50,000 men.
Although we have been trained for a long time, if we collide with them, even if we are undefeated, it will probably be a protracted battle. How about we prepare for another two years, and when we are ready, it will not be too late to launch a war." Jushou said.
"What you said is wrong. Xianbei often harasses the Han border and plunders the people. It is the lord's duty to defeat them. Besides, the world will be in chaos in a few years. Shanggu is located at the junction of Han and Xianbei. Why not pacify it as soon as possible?
Go south to fight for world hegemony?" The military commander was unhappy after hearing what Ju Shou said, and angrily went out to maintain his opinion.
"Generals, please be patient. You haven't gone into battle for more than a year. We all understand your eagerness for war. But everything in Shanggu has just gotten back on track. This is the time when we need time to continue to develop. War wastes people and money, I think.
We don’t want the scene that we have worked hard for in the past two years to disappear.” Seeing the generals blushing and having thick necks, Zhong Yao stepped out to persuade them.
"I said you literati came out to stop you, but you are too cowardly! Last year, Wuhuan's 30,000 cavalry came in force. Didn't we just use 15,000 soldiers to defeat them? Instead of 100,000 Xianbei dogs, we only needed
Thirty thousand cavalry can defeat them, so why are you talking so much?"
"You...you guys are really..." Zhong Yao originally came to calm the generals' anger, but he didn't expect to get into trouble. He was so angry that he couldn't even speak smoothly.
"Okay, okay, you all calm down." Chen Yaotian stopped him again, then glanced at Xi Zhicai and Xun You who were calm and calm, and said: "Zhicai, Gongda, what do you two think?
"
"My lord, do you think it's time to send troops?"
Chen Yaotian has been worried about one thing recently, and that is whether his arrival will disrupt the process of history. Or whether it will cause chaos in the world in advance. This is why he now proposes to go north to attack Xianbei.
"I want to send troops as soon as possible to eliminate all hidden dangers in the rear."
