"Senior Brother Yao is very ambitious. If Brother Yao travels far away and Li Cunxiao is not talented, I would like to help Senior Brother Yao."
Wen Zhong had many issues to consider, but Li Cunxiao was extremely excited at this time.
Although he was fighting alone, he directly attacked the enemy's heart, which suited Li Cunxiao's appetite and directly attracted Li Cunxiao's attention.
For Li Cunxiao, although Li Jing was a bit weak, his method of doing things was very much to his liking.
"Forget it, our army's time is limited. Since the two generals are willing to take risks, it might as well give it a try!"
Li Cunxiao's words really made Wen Zhong make up his mind.
Logically speaking, Li Cunxiao's status was special, and Wen Zhong should not let such a person take risks.
However, Li Cunxiao is also brave and good at fighting. With his strength, if he wants to leave, few people in Dongyi can stop him.
Therefore, Wen Zhong was not worried about any danger Li Cunxiao would encounter.
Moreover, as a leader among the younger generation of disciples of Taoist Jiejiao, Wen Zhongke knew very well that although this was not a traditional Confucian disciple, he was, after all, a disciple of the one in the sage's lecture hall. Characters, maybe there will be some way to save their lives!
If Li Cunxiao is here, he can also help take care of Li Jing.
"Pharmacist, General Li, if something cannot be done, I will ask General Mo Peng to take over!"
Wen Zhong's ability to say this was equivalent to hinting to them that they could sacrifice their car to save their commander if necessary.
After all, the coastline of Nanping Road is long and can provide places for large-scale troops to land. Although only those few are under Yelu Defei's firm control, if it is a small-scale or even a few people who want to take the waterway, then It’s much simpler!
From the names Wen Zhong gave to Li Jing and Li Cunxiao, it can also be seen that Wen Zhong still had a close relationship with the two.
Although they, as the younger generation, had never experienced what happened back then, they would instinctively be alienated from Li Cunxiao, who had a Confucian background, and he was even inferior to Li Jing, who had just arrived.
"General, although I only have 3,000 men, I need all the horses in the army! I will also provide 3,000 sets of Dongyi armor, 20 days of dry food, and 50 barrels of kerosene!" Li Jing said with confidence.
There really weren't many cavalry left under Wang Yu except the golden fire cavalry. Even for the Golden Fire Cavalry, although Wang Yu tried every means to get those horses, even at a high cost, such as exchanging a batch of Dongyi prisoners with Dongyi, Huangfu Mingze also helped him out. A lot of cost. After all, Huangfu Mingze has been in business for many years, and he still has some money. With the support of the Dongfang family, who else can he kill if not him?
To train an elite is to use white money to smash it out. At the beginning, Wang Yu sent Meng Tian to Yannan Road just to borrow chickens to lay eggs.
In the beginning, in order to form this cavalry force, he could not afford to buy extra horses and form other cavalry. But after wiping out the Huangfu Mingzhao court, Wang Yu gained a lot of combat power from the spoils of war, and his cavalry force also began to expand.
Among Wen Zhong's 40,000 horses, although the proportion of cavalry is not large, if all the horses are gathered together, the 3,000 people who are about to follow Li Jing on the adventure will be equipped with enough equipment for one person and three horses.
Let this unit maintain the equipment of one person and three horses. In addition to ensuring their maneuvering speed, the free horses can also allow them to carry sufficient weapons, equipment, and food to support them in completing this battle.
"Three thousand Dongyi armors!" Wen Zhong muttered to himself.
There were no other problems, but it was this that gave him some trouble.
This quantity is not large, or even very small. If it is made on site, it can be easily made. But the question is, when Wen Zhong sends troops to fight, what is the purpose of carrying this type of technicians in the army? Without workers, even a clever woman cannot make a living without rice.
As for the enemy corpses, they had never fought any big battles. Where did they get so many enemy corpses?
After all, on ancient battlefields, after a battle, both sides would collect the corpses of their respective soldiers in time to prevent the occurrence of plague. Moreover, even when Wen Zhong and the others restrained themselves, they would burn them directly. They couldn't strip the enemy soldiers naked first and then dispose of their bodies!
Of course, Wen Zhong also knew very well that for safety reasons, these things cannot be omitted!
Dongyi is not an inaccessible prairie. How can Qingqi ensure that all traces of the march will be erased if Qingqi goes deep into it? How to ensure that no one along the way has the chance to see their traces?
Of course, even if their soldiers and horses wear Dongyi equipment, they cannot truly become Dongyi people.
However, at least a buffer can be formed.
For example, if a hunter happens to discover this unit while traveling through the mountains and forests. If this army is wearing the equipment of the Cang Army, then this Orion will naturally find a way to hide first!
But if this troop was wearing the equipment of their Dongyi people, would this hunter still deliberately hide? As long as the other party doesn't deliberately hide, then the chance of them discovering this hunter is much greater and they can just wipe it out.
No matter what, Li Jing would not march to villages or even towns, just as a precaution.
After thinking about it, it was definitely too late to do it on the spot, so Wen Zhong could only deliberately fight Dongyi. In previous wars, if the other party had no time to dispose of the corpse, they would burn it directly while disposing of it. But this time, Wen Zhong had to dig up the body.
3,000 sets of armor, that is to say, Wen Zhong only needs to kill or capture 3,000 of the opponent's people. This number can be said to be less, but it is definitely not more. In just two days, Wen Zhong had already raised what needed to be raised.
Although Wen Zhong was unable to make detailed plans due to the tight time schedule, he had to hastily fight a few small battles in the past two days, which inevitably cost him some money. However, if Li Jing really strives to win this surprise battle, even this price and the next zero will definitely be worth it!
On a dark evening two days later, Wen Zhong took out all the meat left in the army and marched for the 3,000 strong men. If these 3,000 people succeed, they will naturally have outstanding achievements, but if they fail, they will die without a burial place. Since they had to take risks, they naturally couldn't be wronged in the last meal after leaving. Even before a prisoner goes to the execution ground, there is always a farewell drink.
