Time travel rebellion, I'm serious

Chapter 139 Before the decisive battle

Zhang Zongbing didn't know what Duan Haoran was thinking.

On the contrary, his mind was not here at all at this time. Instead, he kept sighing.

After arriving from the Two Thousand Battalion, looking at their actions, he knew very clearly that this army was a very difficult one.

For no other reason, although the intelligence said that this was an army composed entirely of civilians and had been trained for less than a month, he could see very clearly that this was not their kind of training method.

Therefore, Zhang Zongbing was very surprised as to who was training this army to be so powerful.

Yes, powerful.

In Zhang Zongbing's opinion, this army was stronger than any of their armies except that it had never seen blood and had no good armor.

It's just a pity that when he told the matter and asked the soldiers to attack, he was laughed at unanimously by everyone.

Duan Haoran, in particular, directly rejected his request to take the initiative.

Don't they know that the place where this army is stationed is very bad for them?

The existence of this army is to put a knife over their heads, making them dare not act rashly.

Don't they know this?

Zhang Zongbing had doubts in his heart, but unfortunately, none of these people could understand.

Even Duan Haoran couldn't see clearly, and even reprimanded him and ordered him to take charge of the county soldiers and strong men.

"Alas..., a bunch of idiots, if they don't listen to me, they will be finished sooner or later."

"That's all, go to sleep, life and death are up to them. At worst, I will surrender when the time comes."

Seeing this, Zhang Zongbing couldn't help but sigh, turned around and walked towards the big tent behind him.

Since everyone disagrees with his suggestion, he will organize the county soldiers and strong men to prepare for the near future.

When the time comes, with a certain number of troops in his hands, he still has great hope of survival.

Therefore, he needs to think about how to save himself in unfavorable situations and at the same time let the commander die in the battle.

As for the private soldiers of each family, he is not greedy because they are not his.

But if these private soldiers died, the armor on their bodies did not mean that he was not greedy.

Because this kind of battle-damaged things are very useful to him.

Even if he surrenders, as long as he has people, armor, and knives in his hands, he can occupy a small area and dominate with only two or three hundred.

Who will go to Toozhang's house then?

As a member of the Zhang family, you still follow them all day long. What is this?

Scumbag!

At this time, Duan Haoran was plotting against Hetu Mountain, various families, and even the county soldiers and tens of thousands of men.

But he never thought that someone was plotting against him.

And for some reason, ever since he was in the army, the spiritual sense in his heart that could alert him to danger had become chaotic, as if he could die at any time every day.

This feeling was very bad, but after staying in the army for a long time, he had never been in any danger and had gradually calmed down.

Even if he had a bad premonition just now, he simply ignored it.

After all, he has brought out all the masters in the house to protect him, not to mention that his own strength is also good.

He firmly believed that as long as he was not involved in dangerous positions, he could survive well even if the entire army was wiped out.

Yes, he is so confident.

........................

Time flies, and the next day has arrived. Daqian is stabilizing the morale of the army, while the Han army and the two thousand battalions continue to build camps.

That afternoon, reinforcements from Wangjiacun arrived in a hurry.

There were not too many people, but not too few either. There were a full 1000 people, with Shi Gandang as the commander-in-chief.

Wang Wencai also warmly received them upon their arrival.

However, as for their station, according to Liu Wu's intention, they would be stationed outside Heifeng Stronghold, facing off against the two thousand battalions, Heifeng Stronghold and Daqian's army.

It's a pity that Shi Gandang didn't have enough courage or he had Wang Sanshui's orders, so he chose to stay in Heifeng Village as his reinforcements.

Regarding Shi Gandang's choice, Wang Wencai certainly applauded better.

To be honest, he was really frightened by Da Gan's sharp attack.

Especially after an analysis by the fourth child, Guan Zizuo, he felt even more unsure.

If he hadn't been the leader who needed to stabilize the morale of the army, he might have been in a very ugly state.

Now that a thousand new troops have joined, it really reassures him a lot.

Especially for this choice, he also asked Liu Wu and Guan Zizhuo, and both of them had very clear intentions.

Whether he is stationed outside or stationed in Heifeng Village, it doesn't matter at this time.

Ah!

This is what two people said against their will.

In this way, time flew by again, and a full ten days passed without any conflict between the two sides.

Just like the officers and soldiers of Daqian, except for sending out scouts for reconnaissance, they stayed motionless in the camp the rest of the time.

No, in other words they are preparing for war and training every day.

As for the reinforcements from Heifeng Village and Wangjia Village, they were also trained by Guan Zizuo at this time, and they were so powerful that they vowed to outnumber the officers and soldiers.

The same goes for Liu Wu and his two thousand battalions. Even Liu Wu was very lucky to start fighting before the officers and soldiers came up, giving them a certain amount of time to reorganize the army.

Especially Liu Wu, although he knew that Daqian needed to restore his morale, he did not expect that it would take such a long time.

In addition, after Liu Wu and the others have assembled at this time, there are still a little more than 400 veterans, which is completely enough to train and manage two thousand battalions.

Moreover, they will also make up for the ideological construction that they have lost during this period.

It can be said that with every extra day of army reorganization time, the combat strength of the two thousand battalions can increase a little.

So it seems that among the three camps, the Two Thousand Battalion has the smallest training momentum, but its strength has improved the fastest.

And all of this was done quietly, with neither Da Gan nor the allies knowing about it.

However, these ten days of confrontation were not easy for everyone, or in other words, everyone could no longer hold on at this time.

For Heifeng Village, he needs to provide food for Wangjia Village, the Han Army and the two thousand battalions, and the daily food consumption has exceeded 60 shi.

In addition to their own consumption, the daily consumption of food and grass is as high as 130 shi.

In just ten days, their Heifeng Village's food reserves have been consumed by 1300 shi. If this continues, they will not be able to hold on.

This is because Wangjiacun also supported a lot of food supplies.

As for Liu Wu's Han army, they simply ignored it.

A poor man.

It seems that Liu Wu and the others obtained a lot of supplies from the annihilation of Majia Town, but they also moved tens of thousands of refugee slaves, and those supplies may not be enough for their own use.

Therefore, Wang Wencai knew very well that if they continued to delay, even if they defeated Da Gan, their future life would not be easy.

Not to mention that many villages in the territory have been demolished and burned by the officers and soldiers, and reconstruction in the future will also be a big problem.

Therefore, Wang Wencai has interviewed Liu Wu and Shi Gandang many times, asking if they can take the initiative to fight a decisive battle, and clearly explained the current situation in Heifeng Village.

In this regard, Liu Wu and the others could only shake their heads.

However, Liu Wu and Guan Zizhao also provided analysis to Wang Wencai.

"Brother Wang, don't worry. It's not easy for us. It's also hard for the officers and soldiers of Daqian. Even the food consumption of the officers and soldiers of Daqian is even more terrifying than ours."

"Besides, after my observation during this period, the food of Daqian officers and soldiers has been almost consumed by now."

"The reason is that more and more Daqian officers and soldiers are participating in training, and some of their camps have been dismantled. They even built a large number of shield vehicles without anyone going out to cut trees."

"All these signs indicate that the food supplies of Daqian officers and soldiers are being rapidly consumed again."

"So the time for our decisive battle is not far away!"

Liu Wu's analysis was clear and logical, and Guan Zizuo also agreed with Liu Wu's views, which greatly reassured Wang Wencai.

As for Shi Gandang, he was just a foil in the meeting. He only listened and could not speak at all and could not give any suggestions.

In other words, during the meeting, like Jiang Gaoyi and Lao Wu, he could only stare with wide eyes.

As for what Wang Wencai and Liu Wu were discussing, they couldn't understand.

I just vaguely heard that they didn't have enough food to eat; they wanted a decisive battle; the decisive battle was about to happen.

that's it!

After the meeting ended, Shi Gandang followed closely in Liu Wu's footsteps and asked Lu Yulin for advice.

Yes, he thought he was not qualified enough and did not dare to ask Liu Wu for advice, so he had to choose Lu Yulin.

In fact, he liked Cheng Huaiyuan more than Lu Yulin.

After all, no matter how you say it, compared to other people in Liu Wu's station, he and Cheng Huaiyuan are somewhat close friends.

But Cheng Huaiyuan would not follow him and had been training soldiers in the two thousand battalions, so he could only feel melancholy.

And just when Wang Wencai was worried about food, Duan Haoran once again called the generals in the commander's tent of the officers and soldiers.

"Everyone, the army's food supply has been almost exhausted. What do you think we should do now?"

Everyone looked at each other, of course they knew about this.

It's just that hasn't a plan been made to launch a decisive battle as soon as the food is exhausted?

What do you ask them for now?

Seeing the confused expressions on the faces of the generals under the tent, Duan Haoran knew that he was right.

This group of people never thought about the possibility that the enemy would not fight them decisively and just defend Black Wind Stronghold.

In response, Zhang Tanhou immediately came out and scolded everyone.

"Let me tell you, you don't think that if we want a decisive battle, people are willing to go out of the city gate to fight with us, right?"

"No way? No way? You are all the elites of each family, you can't be so naive, right?"

Zhang Tanhou's words immediately turned a group of people from embarrassed to furious.

This black-hearted guy is insulting people, right?

I only heard a general retort immediately:

"Zhang Tanhou, you...how can you accuse someone of innocence out of thin air!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Zongbing couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

Where did you learn this?

It's obviously not okay to have any more farce at this time.

Then he took the initiative to step forward and asked: "Commander, according to the results of such consumption, how many days can the current food storage last?"

Duan Haoran glanced at General Zhang and said, "It can last for four days."

Zhang Zongbing nodded when he heard this and said: "In that case, I suggest that we send a letter of challenge to Heifeng Village tomorrow and invite it to a decisive battle!"

All the generals: "???"

What did General Zhang say just now?

Did they hear it right?

I only heard a general asking: "Sorry...Zhang...Zhang Zongbing, I want to ask us to send a letter of war to Heifeng Village, why do they want us to agree?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone nodded in unison.

When Zhang Zongbing saw this, he felt a little desperate. He increasingly felt that these teammates could no longer carry him.

However, he still explained dutifully: "It is precisely because of this that I said we will issue a letter of challenge to them tomorrow!"

"If they don't answer, then keep sending."

"If we don't receive it, we will give it away until the day we run out of food."

"At the same time, it will be announced in the next few days that the army will soon be out of food, so as to accumulate panic among the soldiers, and then channel it into anger."

"When the food is finally exhausted, we will directly declare that there is no food supply. We must break through the Black Wind Stronghold to survive."

"By the way, now we also need to smash the pot together."

"When the time comes, Black Wind Village still wants to escape. If nothing else, the army who doesn't want to starve to death will definitely rush to kill them."

"As for the so-called two thousand battalions and the Han army, there is nothing they can do to us. At that time, they will have only two choices. One is to retreat, and the other is to actively interfere with our battle."

"Both of these options are good for us. If they retreat, we will lose a lot of threats. As long as we break through Heifeng Village and get food supplies, we can then take advantage of the situation to take Wangjia Village and defeat them one by one. .”

"If they take the initiative to interfere in our battle, wouldn't they just follow our wishes and participate in our decisive battle?"

As soon as General Zhang's words came out, everyone in the big tent was in an uproar.

Good guy, this operation is somewhat familiar. Where have they heard of this operation?

I just couldn't remember it at this moment, but someone still discovered the loophole that Zhang Zongbing said.

"General Zhang, this is easy to say. If we directly expose the issue of insufficient food, the army will start to flee in the next few days, not to mention waiting for the decisive battle in four days, right?"

Yes, when this loophole was mentioned, everyone reacted and looked at Mr. Zhang.

In response, Zhang Zongbing sneered and said viciously:

"This matter is simple. From today on, we will not send out scouts to prevent the news of insufficient food from leaking."

"And when you go back, each of you will restrain your own family members to ensure that they don't dare to escape."

"I think you all have this ability!"

"At the same time, I suggest that the commander-in-chief let his guards patrol directly. If any deserters are found, they will be killed without mercy."

"And those deserters who were killed will be made public directly. And tell them that if they want to live, they will fight with Black Wind Village in four days. Life or death will be decided on that day."

"At the same time, I promise that after defeating Heifeng Village, all the gold and silver treasures will belong to them."

"I think this will be enough to curb the emergence of deserters and build up their anger towards Black Wind Village."

"As for the generals who can't control their own families, the commander-in-chief has countless masters who will probably help you control them."

Zhang Zongbing's strategy was very damaging, but Duan Haoran liked it very much.

"Okay, I agree to your request."

"The letter of challenge will be sent out tomorrow."

"And Ma Bukui, I will give you the sacrificial flag during the decisive battle."

"Now, everyone, please step aside!"

Having said that, Duan Haoran ignored everyone and took the lead in walking out of the handsome tent to set up arrangements.

At this time, his view of Zhang Zongbing changed again.

This guy is a talent!
