"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 163
The words spoken are like water poured out, so naturally there is no reason to take them back.
As the commander-in-chief of the Qinghe Army, Chen Ru would damage his dignity if he did not keep his word.
Facing a series of requests made by Chen Ziang, while Chen Ru was annoyed that he was too Meng Lang, he also showed a smile that was uglier than crying.
"Zi Ang, you also know that our Qinghe army is poor now"
Chen Ru tried to play the emotional card so that Chen Ziang could back down and reduce some demands.
"Marshal, this is the minimum requirement for me. If you can't meet these requirements, why not let other generals try the job of leading a partial division to divert the dynasty army?"
Chen Ziang knew that this trip was extremely risky, so he did not give in an inch and had to meet his request.
Luo Dagang in the coaching tent saw that Chen Ziang wanted to kick the ball to them, and their hearts were also suspended.
? Leading a partial division to attract the dynasty army is a narrow escape task, they don't want to die young.
"Marshal, I can transfer 50% of the battle armor Brother Chen needs from our army."
General Longxiang Luo Dagang was the first to speak. He would rather lose something than put himself in danger.
"We can gather two thousand, no, three thousand horses for the Hussar General."
With Luo Dagang taking the lead, the rest of the generals donated generously and expressed their willingness to help.
With the horses, armor and other items provided by Luo Dagang and others, Marshal Chen Ru's complexion became better, at least he didn't have to pay for it.
The military meeting on the front line lasted until late at night, and the high command finally decided to bypass Yunyang Mansion, which was heavily guarded by the Dynasty, and go south to Yunmeng Province.
At the same time, in order to get rid of the relentless pursuers, the command decided to send Chen Ziang to lead 8,000 people as a side division to divert the pursuers away.
"Zi Ang, it is extremely dangerous for you to go here, you must not be brave, you must protect yourself."
Chen Ziang was one of the four generals of the Qinghe Army, and also Chen Ru's confidant and favorite general. He naturally didn't want Chen Ziang to fall like this.
After all, among the four generals in the Qinghe Army, only Chen Ziang and Meng Jianbo are the original members of his line.
And although Liu Yidao and Luo Dagang respect him as the commander-in-chief now, they are not direct descendants, and he is always on guard.
After the military meeting was over, Chen Ru left Chen Ziang alone, and gave careful instructions to Chen Ziang to be very careful.
"Don't worry, Marshal, I will live up to your expectations, and I will go to Dongjiang Province to find you after completing the task."
"It's just that when I'm not around, the brothers and family members of the Second Army, please take care of them more."
"Don't worry about this, I will never treat them badly." Chen Ru also made a promise to Chen Ziang.
This time, Chen Ziang planned to lead 8,000 soldiers and horses as a partial division, which was only a part of the Second Army.
Because as a partial division, extremely high mobility is required. If infantry, old and weak women and children are also accompanied, it will become a burden and affect their combat effectiveness.
So he left all the family members to go with the main force, and he also left the infantry to protect these family members to ensure that these brothers have no worries.
After Chen Ziang bid farewell to Chen Ru, he returned directly to the camp of their Second Army Corps.
Chen Zi'ang summoned all the officers above the banner battalion commander and announced the decision of the high command, that is, their Second Army would draw troops and horses to form a partial division.
"Why is it us?"
"Yes, this is a narrow escape, why don't other legions go?"
After hearing Chen Ziang's announcement, Lin Yu and others also yelled with righteous indignation, and their emotions seemed a little excited.
"I recommended myself."
Seeing these noisy officers, Chen Ziang knocked on the table and said coldly.
"ah?"
Apart from being surprised, the officers also looked at Chen Ziang in bewilderment, waiting for his explanation.
"There are no eggs under the nest. Once our Qinghe army is surrounded by the armies of the dynasty, there is only one dead end. Therefore, someone must lead the pursuers away to ensure the smooth transfer of the main force."
"As for why I went instead of others, it was because I didn't trust them and felt that they were not capable of?This task, only our brothers from the Second Legion have this ability! "
When Chen Ziang said this, he looked around, and all the officers who were swept by Chen Ziang's gaze subconsciously straightened their backs, which was a pride from the heart.
"Brothers, only when we divert the pursuers can we ensure that our parents, wives and children can be safely transferred to Dongjiang Province. The more dangerous we are, the safer our parents, wives and children will be."
"That's all I have to say, old rules, those who are willing to go raise their hands."
Chen Ziang didn't talk too much nonsense, and after a brief explanation, he asked the officers to express their views.
?Although they knew that they were going to die, but thinking that they could ensure that their parents, wives and children could be transferred safely, the officers raised their right hands one after another after thinking about it for a while, with firm eyes.
"As expected of Chen Ziang's soldiers, they have all kinds!"
Seeing the right hand raised in Qi Shushu, Chen Ziang also nodded in satisfaction.
Although these brothers of their second army were still a little immature when they led the troops to fight, they were full of courage.
"Lin Yu, Li Lang, Zhou Ba will follow me, and the rest will stay."
It is impossible for Chen Ziang to take everyone away, because the number of war horses is limited, and troops must be left to protect his family.
Although it is relatively safe for family members to march with the main force of the Qinghe Army, once an emergency occurs and other troops are too busy to take care of themselves, who will take care of them.
"While I'm not around, Zhang Bao, Yang Zhong, Wang Hu, and Li Tiechui all perform their duties, and you must listen to the chief of staff when encountering major issues, and you must not act without authorization."
"No!"
After Zhang Bao and the others looked at each other, they all agreed one after another.
It's no problem for people like Zhang Bao to charge forward, but what they lack is a sense of the overall situation.
Therefore, Chen Ziang is going to let Li Qiye, the chief of staff, take the lead during the period of time when he leaves.
"General, I don't have much talent and learning, and I am embarrassed to take on this important task. Why don't I choose another"
Chief of staff Li Qiye did not expect that Chen Ziang would let him take the overall responsibility, so he also seemed panicked.
Because Chen Ziang brought out these arrogant soldiers, he was worried that he would not be able to suppress the scene.
"Now is the time for employing people, so don't refuse." Chen Zi'ang directly interrupted Li Qiye's words with a wave of his hand.
"Master Chief of Staff, if the general asks you to be in charge, just agree, and don't blah blah blah."
"Yes, we all listen to you. If anyone refuses to accept it, I will beat him to hell!" Zhang Bao and others also spoke one after another.
Li Qiye couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to reluctantly agree. While being moved by Chen Ziang's trust in him, he was also very uneasy, worried that he could not do well.
After Chen Ziang made some more arrangements, he let everyone leave to prepare, but left Li Qiye alone to explain some things alone.
"General, I am worried that my ability is limited and I have failed the general's trust."
When staying alone, Li Qiye, chief of staff, also expressed his concerns.
After all, he has been leading the staff team to assist Chen Ziang behind the scenes, and has never stepped onto the stage.
Now Chen Ziang directly pushed him to the front desk, making it difficult for him to adapt for a while.
"Abilities are all cultivated. No one is born to lead troops to fight or recite poems and paint paintings. After a lot of experience, you will gradually get used to it."
Li Qiye smiled wryly at Chen Ziang's relief, but since he couldn't escape, he had no choice but to push the ducks to the shelves and force him.
After explaining to Li Qiye, Chen Zi'ang called Zhang Bao and others to talk alone, to make sure that they would sincerely support Li Qiye's work and that the troops would not go wrong when he was away. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
