Regarding military strategy, Zhao Ran only asked two questions, whether he reported to Wenchangguan and whether he had soldiers.
There was definitely no report, so Zhao Ran wanted to complete this procedure, and immediately wrote a letter that was both a report and an invitation, and prepared to send it to Wenchangguan. Wenchang Temple is a provincial temple in southern Zhili. Zhao Ran does not expect them to send people to join the army. He just needs to continue to improve the legal certificate on his head.
After writing the letter, Zhao Ran felt that the sergeant was too slow, so he directly summoned Yan Xiaoliu and asked him to drive the sergeant to Wenchangguan to deliver the letter.
Zhang Lue and others watched Yan Xiaoliu fly away and praised: "With this spiritual practice, it will be easier to capture the capital."
After that, we talked about the second problem, which was also the biggest difficulty we faced before sending out troops. There were not enough battle formations.
Zhang Lue expressed his difficulty. He now only has about a hundred sets of battle formation armor and activation talismans used for daily training in the camp. With these armors, he cannot attack the capital. Their original plan was to have Zhang Lue personally lead more than a hundred people to rush into the city and snatch Zhao Ran out before sending troops. For this reason, Zhang Lue also gave a large sum of money to the Huangguan Realm casual cultivator who was stationed in the military camp to assist in training, and asked him to use the formation talisman when he entered the city - of course, he no longer uses it.
Zhao Ran was very moved and patted Zhang Lue on the shoulder without saying anything. It was such a crazy idea to break into the city and snatch Zhao Ran away, almost escaping death.
"I know that the Ministry of War has a large warehouse of military armor at the small school grounds in the city, but it is obviously difficult to get hold of it. Where else can it be found?"
Zhang Lue said: "Longtan Guard has a warehouse. All the weapons of our guard are stored there and are guarded by a big warehouse from the Ministry of War."
Zhao Ran asked: "How many people are guarding Jiaku?"
"It's just thirteen people."
Zhao Ran nodded, the armor can actually be obtained, the key to the problem is to activate the formation talisman of the armor refined by the Dao Sect.
The sergeants are trained by the generals, the armor is kept by the military department, and the activation talisman of the armor is held in the hands of the Taoist sect. This is an excellent system for the Taoist sect to ensure that the army does not rebel or be exploited by others.
The activated array talismans are refined by the Qifu Pavilion, and the array talismans garrisoned by each province and prefecture are controlled by each provincial pavilion. It is a pity that Shang Sangong also gained control of the formation talismans activated by the armor, which gave the Beijing camp that was now participating in the rebellion the ability to fight against the monks. This was a pity.
During the Battle of Hongyuan, Zhao Ran established the Hongyuan Militia, and Dongfang Jing, who was stationed at the Hongyuan garrison, awarded a batch of formation talismans. This gave the newly formed Hongyuan Militia the ability to enter the battlefield.
After the victory of Hongyuan, the Hongyuan Militia remained as the first local standing army in Songfan, and the talismans for its armor were also transferred to the Zongsheng Hall. The Zongshengguan also had the key to controlling the Hongyuan Militia.
As a lover of talismans and the founder of the Hongyuan Militia, Zhao Ran also carries a few armor formation talismans in his storage ring for emergencies, but they are far from enough for Longtan Guard to attack the city, so this is something he needs to consider. The issue of combat readiness was of course one of the important reasons why Zhang Lue was willing to risk his life and planned to enter the city to rescue him.
Zhao Ran thought about this issue on the way here. He planned to go to Sanmao Pavilion not far from Longtanwei to try first. If it didn't work - he thought it probably wouldn't work, then he would go to Maoshan and pick it up. Fu, secondly, ask Sima Tianshi, if the capital is like this, are you still a Taoist monk?
Considering the increasingly clear attitude of Master Shao, if Maoshan doesn't work, then you can only rely on the armor stored in your storage finger to activate the formation talisman.
He has very few formation talismans, one medium-sized one and eight small-sized ones. One talisman can be activated for three hours. The medium-sized talisman can cover a battle of a thousand people, and the small-sized talisman can cover a hundred people. Zhao Ran's several array talismans were reserved according to the scale of the Hongyuan Militia, which can meet the emergency needs of the eight hundred people of the militia. Fight a short emergency battle. For the Longtan Guards with 5,600 troops, it was obviously not enough, let alone attacking the city.
But Zhao Ran is still determined to fight this battle as soon as possible. If it doesn't work, he will only lead a thousand elite troops and drive directly to the capital to carry out a surprise attack. No matter what, if we want to destroy this great formation that isolates China and the outside world as soon as possible, our sect must not sit still and wait for death!
Soon, Yan Xiaoliu came back. His back was too small to accommodate two people. Instead, he left the soldier who delivered the book at Qixia Mountain and allowed him to return on his own. The person who carried him back was another person, Wenchang. Gu Tengjia of the Guanyuan.
Zhao Ran was a little surprised: "Why are Gu Jianyuan here?" He also apologized quickly: "Since I took office as the abbot of Yingtian Mansion in February, I rarely went to the provincial temple to report to the prison hospital. It was my fault, and I ask the prison hospital to forgive me."
Gu Tengjia waved his hand: "I've heard how busy you have been in the past few months, so there's no need to be so polite to me. When you first took office, the Supervisory Shen Prison sent a letter asking me to support you more. Just rest assured.?Without further ado, the capital has undergone tremendous changes in the past few days. Abbot Zhuang and I have both received news. We heard that both Yuanfu Palace and Xuantan Palace were inspected by Shangsan Palace, and that Abbot Zhuang fell ill the day before yesterday. Zhiran planned to send troops to quell the chaos, and I was the first to support him, so I came. I can't play any role. I can only represent all the secular people in Shifang Jungle, South Zhili, to support Zhiran! "
Zhao Ran held Gu Tengjia's hand tightly and said movedly: "With the prison hospital here, the morale of the army has increased by three points! How can you say it has no effect?"
Gu Tengjia asked: "When will we set off?"
Zhao Ran said: "The faster, the better, but the formation talismans activated by the soldiers are not enough. I plan to go to Qixia Mountain to see if I can get some from Sanmao Pavilion."
Gu Tengjia said: "Then there is no need to go. After the great changes in the capital, Abbot Zhuang and I rushed to Fengxiang Peak as soon as we got the news, hoping to see Master Shao. However, the mountain gate was closed and the mountain protection formation was activated. No one could Can't get in. Abbot Zhuang fell ill because of this Zhiran, what do you think Master Shao was thinking? At such an important moment, he closed the mountain and couldn't leave, allowing the gang of gangsters in Shangsan Palace to do whatever they wanted! On this day Is he still the Heavenly Master of the Taoist sect? Is Shao Yuanjie still the great celestial master of the Taoist sect? I hope the True Master Hall will come as soon as possible"
Zhao Ran said: "It's hard to say when the True Master Hall will arrive. For the current plan, we must take action first. If Qixia Mountain is not available, I will go to Maoshan now!"
Gu Tengjia asked: "Is there anything I can do?"
Zhao Ran said: "Longtan Guard has the military armor warehouse of the Ministry of War. Please ask the supervisor to lead troops to retrieve the armor. If the envoy from the warehouse dares to create difficulties, the supervisor will deal with it decisively!"
Gu Tengjia led his troops to the armory with murderous intent. He imagined the scene of seizing the armor several times in his mind. As long as the envoy from the armory said half a word, he would kill him decisively and let others take a look. Not only is he a weak Taoist priest who only knows how to sit at his desk, but he is also a Taoist evil star who can hold a knife and make decisions on the sofa!
