Chapter 846: Fighting for the White Horse Army
Shen Changgong waved his hand and said,
"It's nothing. Tactics must be learned and applied flexibly. We also learned tactics from our predecessors.
As long as it kills the enemy, it is a good tactic.
This is how Zhao Biao performed a great feat, blocking the enemy here."
Zhao Biao laughed and said,
"Ah, it's just a small achievement, not worth mentioning."
"A small achievement? What's with the human head memorial outside the camp?"
Guan Shouchang said quickly,
"For the past three days, Zhao Biao has been irritated by the enemy. Kou Jin is truly unethical and despicable, constantly sending people to harass and kill themselves..."
Guan Shouchang told the whole story of what Kou Jin had done.
"Your Highness, he is simply finding ways to disgust us. We are all brothers in the White Horse Army, but we have all been tortured. Some even want to commit suicide."
Shen Changgong narrowed his eyes, murderous intent emerged in his eyes, and said,
"This Kou Jin is really shameless. Instead of fighting properly, he resorts to despicable means.
When two armies fight, it doesn't matter if they use all their strength. If they can win, they are all heroes.
But when he was bound to lose, he still fought like this. He didn't even have the courage to fight a decisive battle. He only disgusted others. Isn't this a way of spiritual victory?
He doesn't care about the lives of his soldiers and keeps sending people to harass and die. Are you afraid that our army won't have enough people to kill them?
In fact, he should have gathered all his main forces on the first night, captured the main camp, and defeated the White Horse Army by relying on the complex terrain inside the camp. But he did not do that. He was cowardly. He only dared to harass and not to fight a decisive battle.
It is said that he was afraid of the lives of the soldiers and did not dare to fight, but he just kept harassing them and wanted to die.
This kind of person has no courage, no guts, no ability, and is insidious and shameless.
The decisive battle will take place tomorrow. Kill this man on the battlefield. Don't give him a chance to surrender!"
"I will obey your orders!"
Zhao Biao was overjoyed. He originally wanted to kill this man to avenge his hatred, but when Shen Changgong came, he was afraid that Shen Changgong would not let him kill him, so he became uneasy.
As a result, after Shen Changgong said this, they finally felt relieved.
Shen Changgong smiled and said,
“I said I wouldn’t give any orders, but now I’ve given them without realizing it. Again, I don’t care. How to fight, whether to kill or not, is up to you all.
We don't care about anything, we just come here to observe and learn.
Let these generals of the Eastern Army see how bravely the Western Army, which destroyed two countries, fought."
"Yes!"
Everyone was smiling and ready to give a good performance.
Zhang Han looked at Zhao Biao and said,
"Zhao Biao, haven't you always said that your White Horse Army is stronger than my Zhennan Army?
Very well then. Tomorrow you lead the White Horse Army to charge and let me see how you are stronger than my Zhennan Army.
You must not let me down, otherwise, when I return to the Zhennan Army, I will spread the news and embarrass you."
Zhao Biao snorted coldly.
"Your Zhennan Army is just relying on its numbers, but in terms of combat effectiveness and merit, our White Horse Army is no worse than you.
Just wait and see tomorrow, I won’t let you drop your jaw.”
"Really? Your White Horse Army has been tormented for three days and three nights. Do they still have the fighting capacity? Oh, I'm waiting to see you make a fool of yourself.
If you perform well, I will treat you and your general to a drink. If not, I will go back and publicize it."
"Let's wait and see!"
Zhao Biao snorted coldly.
He made up his mind that he must charge fiercely into the enemy camp tomorrow and let Zhang Han see how powerful their White Horse Army is.
Shen Changgong said to Guan Shouchang,
"Have all your supplies arrived? I heard you came here on a forced march."
"They're all here. We arrived this evening. Now the artillery, oil, food, and other supplies are all in place. Our army is strong and powerful, and we are at the peak of our strength. We are fully capable of fighting."
"That's good. Then please, General Guan, arrange some tents for us to rest."
"Well, my Lord, have you eaten yet?"
"No, I'm just planning to eat some of your firemen's big pot meals."
Shen Changgong and others rested in several tents for one night. The next day, they saw that the Western Army had already started moving.
Guan Shouchang arranged the tactics.
The south and southeast directions were all handed over to Bai Wuan's Longxiang Army for defense, because that was most likely the direction in which the enemy's main attack and breakout would occur.
On the eastern front battlefield, Guan Shouchang ordered 100,000 Weihu troops and 50,000 Wushuang troops to deploy defenses.
To the north, there are 50,000 unparalleled troops deployed.
The army marched out of the camp, stretching for more than ten miles. The densely packed army was lined up in an orderly fashion, and the artillery was set up.
Behind the army, Zhao Biao led the White Horse Army, formed a charge formation, and called the general and the captain over to give them a lecture.
“Last night, the prince came and brought the commanders of the Eastern Army with him. He said he wanted to learn some tactics and combat effectiveness from us.
Everyone in the Zhennan Army knows that it is a cavalry corps of 100,000 people.
Zhang Han, the commander-in-chief of the Zhennan Army, also came. He actually said to me that our Baima Army is not as powerful as their Zhennan Army.
What a joke! Are we not as good as the Zhennan Army? We are ten thousand times stronger than them.
Today, all the generals and two princes of Dayan are watching us. We, the White Horse Army, will fight in front of the entire Dayan army.
If anyone brings shame to me, I will not forgive him!
Whoever makes a contribution will be rewarded handsomely!
Zhang Han said that if we were stronger than them, he would treat all the generals and captains to a drink.
We have to win this wine with our own ability!
In this battle, the White Horse Army was the first to achieve success!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The generals were filled with indignation and roared loudly.
Everyone is full of fighting spirit.
First of all, today I can finally take revenge for the harassment I have been suffering for days.
Secondly, they also have to show off in front of the entire Yan military leadership to let others know how powerful they are!
From now on, let’s see who dares to underestimate their Liang people army.
They are the only Liang army in Dayan and the last pride of the Liang people.
The bloody battle never ends!
Shen Changgong and others came to the front-line command center.
A high platform was built here, and they all held binoculars to observe the battle.
Inside the Yan army camp, more than a dozen hot air balloons, carrying fully loaded kerosene barrels, slowly took off and flew towards the mountains in the west.
Everyone below was watching intently, waiting for the fire to start.
The hot air balloon flew slowly and finally arrived above the lush mountain.
The scouts pulled the rope, which pulled the hook at the bottom of the kerosene barrel, causing the barrel to tilt and pour the kerosene downwards.
More than a dozen kerosene barrels were poured in different directions.
Then, more than a dozen rockets were shot down from the sky.
It was a clear and cool autumn day, and the leaves were dry and yellow. After pouring kerosene on them, they would catch fire easily.
Almost at the same time, more than a dozen fire spots appeared on the entire mountain.
