Chapter five hundred and forty-eight save the hearts of the people

Luo Zhaoyun ordered the rectification of the three armies and sent the wounded to the rear. The armor and food and grass were transported for a month. The missing people were supplemented. At the same time, some rising stars were transferred to participate in this battle. For example, Lai Heng, He Ruohuaigu, and Fan Dongyin were transferred from three refugee counties to integrate into the army. They were all military positions at the beginning.

Mai Tiebang, Mai Mengcai, Mai Jicai and his son are the main force in the army. Xue Wanren and Xue Wanbei are all talented as tiger generals, and they will be of great use in the future.

It can be said that the two generals Mai and Xue and his sons are definitely the main force in the battle. At this time, under Luo Zhaoyun's account, it has a good role in strengthening the Luo family army.

Luo Zhaoyun, who was 25 or 26 years old, has been in the army for ten years, and has accumulated experience. He is already over the age of 2008, and is much more mature. He has a steady expression and a mentality and temperament that does not change color, which makes some senior generals recognize his status as a marshal and deserve it.

Although Luo Zhaoyun did not go out of seclusion to fight, he eliminated many scouts, and the intelligence organization was also constantly sending back new news.

The Gao family of Northern Qi has already sought help from the northeastern border grassland tribes bordering the four major Xi, Khitan, Mushi and Shiwei in the eastern part of the country, and deliberately made many benefits, such as food, land, beauties, Han slaves, etc. The Gao family intends to attract powerful foreign aid through this way of showing weakness to the grassland people.

The nomadic peoples have strong cavalry, which is the confidence that the Gao family lacks and needs to rely on external strength.

Because to cultivate an iron cavalry, not only can it be a horse, but it needs to be a good-bred war horse, but it is not easy to train a knight. The funds required to raise an elite iron cavalry of a team of 10,000 people may be the price of 50,000 infantry.

With the financial resources behind the Luo family, they can only build the most elite 10,000 cavalry, which belongs to his central army. The equipment, war horses and knights used by the other cavalry must be weaker than that of the central army's iron cavalry.

Inside the Marshal's Account of Linyu Pass City.

The generals gathered together, their iron clothes shining brightly, and they were full of sharp spirits.

There were three Asian generals, all of which were General Yingyanglang from Yuyang, Beiping County and veteran generals of the garrison army, with more than ten partial generals and thirty or forty chief lieutenants.

Mai Tiebang is the title of general of the court, but during this time he led the army, he was the general of the former army.

Luo Zhaoyun sat in the main seat and said with a strong force: "The Khitan, the Marine tribes and other tribes have also sent troops, with more than 8,000, and fewer than 2,000, close to 20,000 cavalry. In addition, the number of cavalry among the Gao family's troops has reached 25,000, which has exceeded the number of cavalry at Linyu Pass. When fighting abroad, cavalry is very important and puts some pressure on us."

Mai Tiebang said: "Master, the last general has fought with the Turkic cavalry many times. He has the method to deal with the nomadic cavalry. Why not, let me take the lead and have a big showdown with these nomadic cavalry?"

Luo Zhaoyun said: "If you can use your wisdom, you should not force the enemy. If you go head-on to fight the main army, both sides will suffer losses. Even if you overcome hidden dangers outside the pass, it will not be in our interests!"

"Oh, how to get smart, please give the order from the Grand Marshal." Mai Tiezhang Su knew that the young commander Luo was resourceful and had no rules for using troops. Since he said that, he might have already made a decision.

"The best way to deal with nomadic cavalry is to lure the enemy into depth and then set up an ambush to attack. Most of the cavalry of the nomadic tribes are herders, gathered for war, scattered for the people, and were wild and untrained. The Hu Feng was serious. As long as we retreat, we would definitely attract the enemy's pursuit."

"This plan is good!" Many generals thought it was feasible.

Luo Zhaoyun smiled slightly and said, "It's not that easy. If it were just Hu cavalry, it would be easy. Now there are the Northern Qi survivors who have been in charge of their families. They have been hidden in their plots for decades. They must be very scheming and resourceful. If they can restrain themselves, our army's strategy will not work. Moreover, the general has also received news that the Gao family sent people to Goguryeo and is still spared no effort to attract foreign aid and make enemies for us. Therefore, we must fight this battle."

At this time, He Ruohuaigu stood up and said, "Master General, since there are many foreign enemies, why don't we stay in Linyu Pass, stay in the door and wait for them to attack? This way, we can wait for the work. The Hu tribe will not be able to get any benefits, so we will naturally withdraw our troops. The Gao family has no people outside the pass, and cannot collect taxes. There are only tens of thousands of people in that county, which is not enough for them to divide up and support the huge military and horse food and salary expenses, so we can completely afford it."

"This suggestion is good, wait for the effort." Many military generals felt that He Ruobi's son He Ruohuaikuo also knew how to use military calculating and was worthy of being from a famous family.

Luo Zhaoyun shook his head and said, "Yan County is in an emergency. In the capital, there are tens of thousands of people in Yan County, as well as our government soldiers and generals. They need us to rescue them. Once the city is broken, you can imagine that the Khitan and Martial cavalry will definitely divide these people and act as slaves to bring them back to the tribes in the deep northeast. Their property will be occupied by the Gao clan's survivors, and their families will be completely destroyed. In our army, there are people from Yan County, fire chiefs, team chiefs, centurions, school captains, and thousands of soldiers. Their families are in Yan County. How can we bear to let go of them when we see death and give up and ignore them. Just like this, they are swallowed by the fire of war and the women and children are plundered?"

After his words, the generals in the audience were silent. This was related to the morale of the army, as well as the morality of the benevolence, righteousness and morality. No one spoke randomly.

Even He Ruohuaigu's face was a little red, feeling a little ashamed of his plan just now, and he used all means to ignore the lives and deaths of the people for victory.

In fact, his approach was not wrong. At least in terms of military tactics, it is already considered clever to win without fighting.

However, Luo Zhaoyun would not do this. He is not an ordinary general, but a king who wants to dominate. The hearts of the people are far more important to him than a victory.

"Pu!" The two captains rushed out, knelt directly on the ground, kowtowed to Luo Zhaoyunlian a few times, and choked, "Thank you, the general, for the people in Yan County, and their subordinates... their families are in Yangle City, the Yan County capital. Moreover, there are indeed some soldiers in the army, their wives, children, and their elders are in that city, and they beg the general to provide assistance."

Just now, the two captains were ashamed when they heard He Ruohuaigu's proposal, and they were ashamed and worried. After hearing the marshal's voice, they ran out excitedly to plead with mercy.

Luo Zhaoyun swept the faces of these generals and saw a lot of expectations from these people.

Soldiers often value friendship, are straightforward and have blood and energy, and can distinguish simple right and wrong. They are waiting for the marshal's decision at this moment.

Luo Zhaoyun nodded slightly and said, "Don't worry, the general of Yan County will definitely help him with all his strength. Not only are there soldiers under my command, but also tens of thousands of people. I must not let the tragedy of the Five Barbarians invade China again, and I will not allow these Hu tribes to invade the northern land again. We are soldiers, and we must protect our territory and prevent our relatives from trampling and massacre from iron hooves. We will not change the troops to Yan County!"
