Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!
Chapter 519: The old, weak, sick and disabled make it difficult to form an army
The Wu family kept their promise and provided Ye Shoujiang with 300,000 troops in a short period of time.
But because of the tight schedule, it may also be that they want to preserve their own strength.
Among the troops provided by the Wu family, a large number of them were old, weak, sick and disabled.
This is like conscripting young men, and just randomly putting together a group of troops for Ye Shoujiang.
The quality of the troops has a huge impact on the battle situation on the battlefield.
Having a group of well-trained and strong soldiers can make them invincible and defeat the larger force with a smaller one.
Even when facing an enemy force several times larger than itself, it can still break through the encirclement and kill everyone.
But if the people in the army are provided casually, they are all old, weak, sick and disabled and cannot withstand a single blow.
Even if there are more people, they cannot achieve the desired effect on the battlefield.
"We also have a difficult secret. The Wu family's troops have suffered heavy losses in the recent war with Daqian."
Wu Tianxing sighed and explained.
"Besides, because the war with the royal family has fully begun, many small families have begun to act like fence-sitters. We can't even mobilize many of their subordinate troops."
"Therefore, the 300,000 troops provided to you were all drawn from the Wu family's own ranks. It is unavoidable that their quality is uneven. I hope General Ye can understand."
As the saying goes, don't hit someone with a smiling face.
After Wu Tianxing said this, Ye Shoujiang didn't say much.
"How about this, I'll select a group of people to stay with you, and Young Master Wu can take away the rest of the old, weak, sick, and disabled. Although I need fewer people, the Wu family still needs to have enough supplies for 300,000 people."
"can."
Wu Tianxing did not refuse this request.
After two hours of selection, Ye Shoujiang's 30,000 troops were all mobilized, and 130,000 troops were successfully selected, expanding the number of their soldiers to 160,000.
"Is that all?"
After seeing the number reported by Ye Shoujiang, Wu Tianxing was a little surprised.
"General Ye, I have to remind you that from now on you will be facing a force several times larger than yours. After all, they are the troops of the Yan Dynasty royal family."
"I know, this is enough."
Ye Shoujiang asked his centurions and thousand-man captains to start the distribution, giving each team twice the number of new recruits.
Then these new recruits were divided into smaller groups, with each veteran leading two or more new recruits to form a team and wait for future combat.
After completing all this, he said to Wu Tianxing:
"By the way, Master Wu, the army under my command is very cohesive. After these people finish fighting, they may not necessarily return to the Wu family. I'm telling you this in advance."
Any unit that is put together will definitely have problems with its combat effectiveness.
Therefore, Ye Shoujiang always viewed the training of the army as a whole.
It is precisely because of this that they are not easily separated once they are united.
It was the first time that Wu Tianxing saw such a strange general.
However, the other party only selected a small number of people, not the elite, so he didn't think much about it.
"That's fine, as long as we can contain this war."
That night, Wu Tianxing left the military camp, and the weapons and equipment promised by the Wu family were also delivered.
Looking at everything in front of him, Ye Shoujiang waved his hand and gave orders.
"I don't have time to train you. From now on, your training will be on the battlefield."
"From now on, divide into six horizontal lines and attack the Yan Dynasty's royal territory!"
"If you want to survive, obey the orders of these veterans!"
Ye Shoujiang came with his own personal soldiers.
Each of these soldiers has experienced more than three to five major wars, and countless small wars.
Therefore, the simplest and quickest way is to hand these new recruits directly over to the veterans for training on the battlefield.
Through screening, they will quickly adapt to the rhythm of the battlefield.
Ye Shoujiang will also give them corresponding treatment if they stay.
For example, military pay and food supply.
The supplies for 300,000 people are now only shared by more than 100,000 people, so each person can naturally get double the supplies and military pay.
Soldiers trained in this way will be more powerful.
That night, before dawn, six horizontal troops began to advance towards the territory of the Yan Dynasty royal family.
Each unit carried several telegraph machines.
Ye Shoujiang once again sat in the tent and personally commanded the large-scale attack of the six horizontal columns.
The royal troops reacted quickly and immediately sent out more than a dozen scouts to find out Ye Shoujiang's situation.
A chaotic battle began between the two sides...
As they fight.
After receiving Qin Ming's response, Heifu and Cao Chuan finally saw the ninth prince Yan Shuo brought by Yun Wenxun on the afternoon of the second day.
"I've heard a lot about the two generals. Seeing them today, I realize they are truly extraordinary. Haha."
As soon as Yan Shuo met them, he clasped his fists and praised the two of them with the etiquette of Daqian.
It was obvious that he had come prepared to discuss something with them.
"Your Highness, there's no need to be so polite. Please take a seat."
Cao Chuan pointed to the chair in front of him and poured a cup of tea for Yan Shuo.
"Let's get straight to the point. His Majesty has agreed to your request."
"So direct?"
Yan Shuo was stunned for a moment, feeling a little puzzled.
He thought that after he came here, he would have to argue with the people from Daqian for a while.
But Caochuan and Heifu did not do so.
Hei Fu said slowly:
"No matter what, what you have done is a loss to the Yan Dynasty royal family. We have no reason to refuse."
"Don't you want something?"
Yan Shuo frowned slightly, he suddenly felt that things seemed to be out of his control.
Faced with his statement, Heifu and Caochuan shook their heads in surprise.
"Nothing is needed. We just need to deal with Yan Zheng and tell him the weak points of the defense line."
Naturally, the two would not tell Yan Shuo that Qin Ming had told them that this little Ninth Prince was not worthy of sitting at the negotiation table.
They were very tactful.
This also made Yan Shuo's eyes even more confused.
"OK then."
Just like that, Yan Shuo left this place in a daze.
He grabbed Yun Wenxun, the only person he still had some friendship with, and asked:
"What does Daqian mean by this? Is there something else behind this that I don't know about?"
Yun Wenxun was no longer controlled by the Yan family, so he naturally knew where he should stand when speaking. He shook his head and said,
"Your Highness, I don't know the specific details. The Yun family is about to be transferred. Since you have completed your mission, just go back and report the news truthfully."
"This……"
Yan Shuo frowned.
Although the task was completed, I don’t know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.
Seeing that no one in the Daqian military camp paid any attention to him, he had no choice but to get on the carriage and leave in embarrassment.
Soon, Xiao Tianzhu, who was fighting with the army on the west coast, received a shocking news.
Liu Chuang penetrated the defense line of the third prince Yan Zheng vertically and destroyed most of the concrete project!
