The director of the General Staff Office is none other than Huang Qiang, the awesome Truss.
When it comes to Huang Qiang, not many people may know it.
However, when it comes to his nickname, there is almost no one who does not know his nickname.
Huang Qiang, the famous Three Rakes is him.
After becoming the director of the staff department, San Huzi felt that he could no longer be called San Huzi, as it would damage Virgo's dignity.
So San Raizi found Yun Chao and strongly demanded to change his name.
This was the case for the peasants of the Dawu Dynasty. Many of them had no names, or rather no decent names.
If it weren't for Yun Chao, San Haozi might have been called San Haozi all his life. At most, others would know his surname was Huang.
Yun Chao was a sucker for naming. He scratched his head and thought for three minutes. His eyes lit up and he named San Rake Huang Qiang.
The third rake liked him very much. He always showed off when he went out, which made the second rake, who also had no famous name, be extremely envious.
It's a pity that Er Lunzi made a mistake when encircling and suppressing the Onezawa bandits. He didn't dare to ask Yun Chao for his name, so he had to keep it secret.
Three rakes are not built. To be appointed by Yun Chao as the Chief of Staff, he really has two brushes. He came up with five sets of plans at once and immediately criticized them.
Some took advantage of the emptiness of Onozawa's bandit's lair to steal homes;
Some took advantage of the battle between the officers and Onezawa bandits to shoot the officers in the back;
Someone stabbed a guy in the back towards the Onozawa bandits;
Also, what to do if you win a battle, what to do if you lose a battle, etc.
In short, each plan was different, and all the generals were stunned when they heard it.
When Yunchao established the staff office that day, everyone still didn't understand it.
In the eyes of many boys, fighting is the commander's business.
If the commander is awesome and can predict events like Yun Chao, he can win the battle.
The commander is stupid and will definitely fail.
What the hell is a bunch of dog-headed military strategists who come up with ideas? Who should the commander listen to?
Now when they heard the plans put together by the staff office, all the generals immediately understood the power of Yun Chao.
After such a long period of experience, none of the boys who can become high-ranking officers are stupid. They are no longer the stupid boys who followed Yun Chao when he first crossed over.
After listening to San Haozi's comments, everyone knew that the staff office was useful, and it was still very useful.
Each set of plans is complete and comprehensively considered. It can be said that no matter which set of plans comes out, you will not suffer any loss.
However, these plans are all specific tactics, and in terms of large-scale strategy, the commander still needs to make decisions.
Tactics are specific combat methods, such as how to sneak attack, how to attack, etc.
Strategy is different. It is the direction of the war and the goal you want to achieve in this war.
Specifically, are you on the side of the official army or the bandits, and how to deal with the aftermath.
Yun Chao gave enough time for his generals to discuss carefully and analyze the pros and cons of each plan to see if there were any deficiencies.
Yun Chao wants to open up the minds of the generals and accelerate their growth.
At the same time, it can also allow the people in the staff office to gain experience and know the shortcomings of the plans they have made.
"Okay, it's almost time. That's it for today. After we go back, everyone will write down their thoughts and hand them over to me early tomorrow morning. Let's call it a night!"
A group of generals: "..."
Everyone in the staff office: "..."
…
Yun Jiajun was like a bystander watching others play chess, watching the two players, the official army and the Onezawa bandit, play chess from a distance.
To put it this way is more elegant, but to put it more cruelly, Yun Jiajun is just a fisherman waiting for the snipe and clam to fight!
This day.
The scouts in front suddenly sent information - the official army was defeated!
After repeated trials, the Onezawa bandits finally figured out the weaknesses of the official army.
So, they captured a local army and beat them fiercely.
Regarding the harassment from other officers and soldiers, it is only necessary to defend and not suffer serious losses.
It's like a fight between a person and a group of gangsters. No matter what the other gangsters are like, if they catch a guy, they will beat him to death.
Once that person is beaten to death, other gangsters will be afraid.
This was also the helpless move of the Onozawa bandits.
As the battle lines lengthened, the same methods they used on the officers and soldiers were also used on them.
The officers and soldiers continued to harass the supply lines of the Onozawa bandits. Relying on their large numbers, the officers and soldiers succeeded repeatedly. The effect was even better than when the Onozawa bandits harassed the supply lines of the officers and soldiers.
At this time, the Onezawa bandit couldn't hold it anymore.
Just in time to figure out the weaknesses of each of the officers and soldiers, we simply launched a divided attack.
Seeing the friendly troops being pushed to the ground and being rubbed by Ohnozawa's bandits, except for Tong Guan's Chinese army, the other local troops chose to sit back and watch.
It's not that the local troops of the Dawu Dynasty were all idiots, it was mainly the consequences caused by Tong Guan himself.
With an army of 100,000 people, plus 200,000 civilians, most people can't even imagine how complicated the logistics are.
As a commander, Tong Guan can be said to have suffered a huge loss.
Food, grass, wages, all kinds of supplies, and oil and water were so huge that countless people from top to bottom of the imperial court were sharing the benefits.
You take a bite and he swallows a piece. No matter how fat the meat is, in the hands of the soldiers at the bottom, only three melons and two dates are left.
Fortunately, the Imperial Guards were his own sons after all, and Tong Guan still had to rely on them. Even if he drank the soldiers' blood, it wouldn't be too much.
Not so with the local army.
He is a godson more than a godson, and can't even be called a son. In Tong Dashuai's eyes, he is almost like a talking mule or horse, even worse than a mule or horse.
When treating animals, you must also feed them well.
Treating those local soldiers, Tong Guan almost treated them as fat sheep.
Want food and grass?
Okay, buy it with money.
Want equipment?
Yes, you can exchange it for silver!
What? No money or backing?
I'm sorry. We need you on the fiercest battlefield. Do you want to consider it?
It is no exaggeration to say that within a few months of the war between the two sides, Tong Guan had earned more money than his salary in his entire life, and it was much more, so much that he would not be able to spend it all in several lifetimes!
The number of officers and soldiers is limited, and of course the baggage is also quota-based.
If someone eats enough, someone will go hungry.
If you want to keep the soldiers well fed, the commander has to pay for it out of his own pocket. What combat effectiveness can such an army have?
Ohnozawa's tactics worked.
Hammer one to defeat one, hammer one to run away.
The local army suffered a loss and did not even say hello. The commander took the remaining soldiers and retreated in defeat, and even ran directly to his hometown!
In less than a month, except for Tong Guan's Chinese army, only four of the eight local armies when the army was launched were left.
Even with the losses caused by the escape, the number of officers and soldiers has dropped from 100,000 to less than 50,000.
The bandits in Onozawa also suffered heavy losses.
After successive battles, the 50,000-strong army has been reduced by more than 20%, and the number is less than 40,000!
