Chapter 27 Zhou Yafu's Style
After leaving Yecheng, Yuan Mai arrived at the Northern Expedition Army camp within a short time.
After getting off the horse, Yuan Mai went straight to the central army tent. After all, he was also the supervisor of this army. Even if he did not stick to his post, he should have been inquiring about military affairs every day.
After entering the coach's tent, Yuan Mai found that Tian Feng was there. He had already brought dozens of trusted guards into the camp yesterday afternoon. At this moment, he was discussing the march with Qu Yi.
After chatting for a while, Yuan Mai got good news. Due to Tian Feng's protest, Yuan Shao scolded Yuan Shang and ordered him not to use the elderly, weak, sick and disabled to evade the Northern Expedition Army.
Mosquito meat is also meat, and ten thousand old, weak and disabled soldiers are also soldiers. They are originally attacking more with fewer attacks. If half of the old, weak and disabled are mixed in, they will attack Dai County and not be surrounded by Tian Yu. Wouldn't that be the sheep enter the tiger's mouth and fall into the trap? Yuan Shao wouldn't be so stupid that he doesn't even understand such a simple truth!
Two thousand men were transferred yesterday morning, and three thousand men were transferred in the afternoon. The mass of this group of soldiers in the afternoon was significantly stronger than that in the morning. One day today, it is estimated that all ten thousand men will be in place. The march north was also put on the agenda.
Now, a 5,000-man army, led by Qu Yi's confidant, was practicing in the school field under the sun formation.
Yuan Mai was not optimistic about these generals and schools under Qu Yi, but he had no talent available, so he had to temporarily let Qu Yi's men train soldiers.
Tian Feng lay on the map and pointed out the march route to Yuan Mai: "Daijun is the gateway of Youzhou, guarding the western gate of Yijing. The situation is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. The south is surrounded by mountains and steep mountains, so it is impossible to march at all. Therefore, after discussing with General Qu, I decided to take this route. I wonder what the military supervisor thought?"
As Tian Feng spoke, he pointed the route to Yuan Mai. He went north from Yecheng, passed Handan, Zhao State, then arrived at Changshan County, then turned west, passed through the well path, rushed to Dingxiang, and finally passed through Yanmen and entered Youzhou. The troops headed straight to the Dai County Headquarters.
This road is farther than the direction of Shangdang to Jinyang, but a large army of 10,000 people must walk on Guanyi Avenue so that they can avoid trampling on each other and minimize casualties. It is impossible for Yuan Xi to follow the light car and take the shortest road of Shangdang to go to Yanmen, which is at least nearly three or five hundred miles away from the road directed by Tian Feng.
Yuan Mai looked at the map and roughly estimated that he was in Anyang, Henan in his previous life. The way Yuan Xi and Sun Han went to Changzhi, Shanxi, then to Taiyuan, and finally arrived at Yanmen, which was Datong before traveling through time.
The road Tian Feng is now referring to is from Anyang to north, through Handan, Xingtai to Shijiazhuang, then goes west through Yangquan, turn north in Taiyuan, pass Xinzhou and Shuozhou to Datong, then from Datong to east, and enter the Daijun boundary through Yanmen Pass.
Of course, it is impossible for Yuan Mai to measure the current terrain by the geography before traveling through time. Not to mention that the roads in the past two thousand years are a world of difference, even the changes caused by the years of the years have caused the mountains and rivers, it is unimaginable.
"General Shutong fought south and north, and Mr. Yuan Hao was resourceful. You will decide the route of the marching. I have no objection to buying it!"
Yuan Mai bowed to Tian Fenggong and said modestly. These two men are veterans of marching and fighting, and a resourceful think tank. The route they jointly planned should be the most scientific and safest.
"Since that's the case, when will we send troops?"
Yuan Mai hesitated for a while, but couldn't help asking, if he had the chance, he should communicate with Zhen Mi again. If he could have a love affair, or even cook raw rice, he would be done.
Qu Yi touched the scar on his face in annoyance. The scar from the corner of his left eye to the corner of his mouth made him look a little scary.
"I wish I could drive the camp to the north now, but these 10,000 people have not yet arrived. Besides, I have to practice for a few days and wait until the food and grass is ready before I can go north."
Qu Yi was talking and thought to himself, aren't I more anxious than you? Yuan Xi is now traveling to take over my troops at night and I don't know how Sun Han is doing. I'm afraid of having to fly to Yanmen now. If I regain my 20,000 troops, I will not be afraid of you. At worst, I will be able to pay attention to Gongsun Zan in Beitou, or cede land in Yanmen, so as to save the danger of moving at any time now!
Yuan Mai thought to himself, that's good. It seems that I can still have a relationship with the "goddess" for a few days. I got up and said, "Let's talk slowly, I'll go back to my camp and see how my personal soldiers are doing."
Leaving the commander's tent, Yuan Mai walked straight to his own military camp and saw Hao Zhao forming a formation for the new recruits from afar.
From a distance, I saw that the team of 500 people was very majestic, almost all of them were young and middle-aged in their twenties. They all looked very strong. I believe that such a team would have strong combat power after training.
"Yes, it's really worthy of Hao Bodao, who refused to guard Chen Cang later. The soldiers were indeed very good. Although they may not have the military talent to fight Zhuge Kongming later, they are a rising star. As long as they take time, they will become a great player in the future!"
Yuan Mai stood in the distance, quietly watching Hao Zhao use his troops to see how he organized these 500 people.
Hao Zhao glanced at Yuan Mai with his eyes, but did not come to pay a visit immediately, but continued to detach the soldiers without hesitation.
In his heart, he is now performing official duties, not as casual as when he was having dinner yesterday. As a general, he must have a rule. Without rules, you cannot make a square or square. Otherwise, how can you lead troops?
Hao Zhao divided 500 people into five villages, each with one hundred people, and the highest commander was the chief; each village was divided into two teams, each with fifty people, and the commander was called the team leader; each team had five teams, and each team had ten people, and the leader was called the chief; each team had two teams, and the commander managed four soldiers.
It took about an hour to prepare a team of 500 people and appointed commanders of all levels, and then led five treasury chiefs to pay homage to Yuan Mai.
Yuan Mai has been waiting for too long, and is sitting cross-legged under a willow tree to watch Hao Zhao's performance.
Hao Zhao brought five village chiefs to Yuan Mai and bowed: "I will pay homage to the general, and I will apologize to you!"
In front of the soldiers, Hao Zhao still felt that calling Yuan Mai "General" is more appropriate than "Prince". In this way, he was his general rather than his family.
"Oh, where did Bo Dao start? Why did you blame me?"
Yuan Mai joked with a smile, while looking at the five villages behind Hao Zhao. After glanced around, he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. They didn't look like people with great skills.
"The general has seen you a long time ago, but he has not come to visit you and let you sit here wither. Isn't it too rude? It's not until now that the soldiers have arranged the soldiers to come to visit the general. Shouldn't we apologize?" Hao Zhao bent down and bowed, insisting on his wrong position.
Yuan Mai laughed to the sky and waved his hand, "Since Bo Daofei insisted on saying this, I will tell you a story..."
At present, under the shade of willow trees, Yuan Mai talked happily and told the story of Yu Jin to Hao Zhaohe’s five village chiefs. The story of Cao Cao’s defeat in Shi Jingshui. Yu Jin not only did not come to pay homage to Cao Cao, but ordered his subordinates to be on guard, dispersed the Qingzhou soldiers, and eventually turned defeat into victory and defeated Zhang Xiu.
"Haha... Hao Bo said that your actions just now are quite as handsome as Yu Jin. What is the crime? I should remember your achievements. Your future achievements will definitely not be under Yu Jin."
Yuan Mai crossed his legs, half complimenting and half serious praise for Hao Zhao.
Today, the news is very closed, but it is not like the Internet, the media, or something like that later. Hao Zhao has never heard of Yu Jin's story. At this moment, he was very happy to hear Yuan Mai compare himself with Yu Jin.
"General, you are a young general. I heard that Yu Wenze is one of the few generals under Prime Minister Cao. He can stand alone and command thousands of troops. How dare I compete with him?"
Now Hao Zhao still has a look up to famous generals like Jin and Cao Ren, and uses these famous generals as idols. Although he was happy after hearing Yuan Mai's words, he did not dare to really compare himself with Yu Jin. He now modestly admits the gap.
Yuan Mai waved his hand and said disapprovingly: "That's their opportunity. In time, your Hao Bodao's achievements will not be inferior to them. Let me introduce these newly appointed governors!"
