I’m The King Chapter 620: : fish in troubled waters


At the foot of Mengshan Mountain, more than ten miles outside Xinhui County, Hejian, outside a military camp, teams of cavalry galloped back and forth. At the gate, looking at those high-spirited cavalrymen, they frowned very tightly.

This barracks is a barracks of the Central Group Field Army of the Zhengdong Army stationed in Xinhui. There are not many garrisons. At the time of the largest number, there were only more than 3,000 people. Every once in a while, some recruits would be rotated to This training, and the only one that has not been rotated is the cavalry directly led by the infantry.

There are not many people, only five hundred people. Right now, the Zhengdong Army is in full battle with Donghu. Almost all the cavalry capable of fighting have been transferred to Sun Xiao in Hetao and He Lanxiong in the direction of Niulan Mountain. A new army.

Ye Zhen is the commander of the Central Group Army, but this army is almost empty. When Ye Zhen came to Hejian to take office, he had nothing but more than a hundred officers. Two years have passed , the current Central Army has more than 10,000 soldiers.

Xinhui is now in a strange state. From the perspective of outsiders, Xinhui under the control of Zhengdong Army and Anlu in Yuyang County should be in a state of hostility. Small-scale frictions often occur, and swords are drawn from time to time. The soldiers below are not sure about the situation. After each other's sentry cavalry and spies meet together, they basically pull out their knives and guns without saying a word, which is the real deal It's a fight, life and death, but the leaders at the top know that this kind of battle is only limited to the contest between the scouts and the small team. In a big conflict, it is impossible for both sides to start a war in a short time.

On the contrary, the caravans traveling between these two places are endless. Countless trading goods that are clearly prohibited by both parties are traded openly here.

Seeing that the sun had already set to the west, the infantry signaled the trumpeters around him to blow their horns to retreat, and he himself turned around and walked into the camp. Although one of his feet was made of iron, he was walking quite stably now. If you only look at his upper body, you will never feel that this person is a disabled person.

Wherever the infantry passed by, all the soldiers looked at the general with an iron foot with reverence in their eyes. Occasionally, the iron feet stepped on the stone and made a ding sound, but it did not affect the balance of the infantry in the slightest.

The infantryman is used to the eyes of the soldiers, but at this moment his thoughts are still thinking about some things about the cavalry. The cavalry at hand has been training for a whole year. Great, immediately fight, immediately ride and shoot. The combination and transformation of formations in the battle are already decent, and there are only generals like infantry who have experienced countless cavalry battles. Only then did I know that this cavalry is just a showman for now.

Of course, it depends on who you compare with. If you compare them with the cavalry of the Central Plains, the infantry is still very confident that they will not lose to them, but compare them with the Donghu cavalry. Or compared with the current cavalry of the Zhengdong Army on the front line, it is a big difference.

"Perhaps only when we go to the battlefield, fight a few hard battles, and kill some people, will we make progress!" To grow step by step into the most powerful cavalry general in the Conquering Eastern Army is to fight non-stop, on the battlefield, on the edge of life and death, and the potential of a person is like this bit by bit. squeezed out.

We are not like the Donghu people and the Huns, who grew up on horseback since childhood. What we can do is to squeeze out the potential of people as much as possible in a short period of time.

Back to his big tent, the first thing the infantry did was to pick up a pen and record some of his experiences and experiences from practicing cavalry that day. He has always insisted on reading and literacy. Although he is not very good at writing notes now, compared to the illiterate back then, he has indeed read a lot of books now, of course, mainly military books.

Putting down his pen, the infantryman thought silently, maybe he should try the new tactics that Instructor Helan had just experimented with. For Zhengdong Army, this is a shortcut to equip a large number of new cavalry.

The East Conquest Army has never been short of horses. What they lack is soldiers who can fight on horseback. They don’t want the Huns to dominate the world among the cavalry troops. This is the purpose of Gao Yuan’s sending infantry to Hejian for training. Although the infantry never asked Gao Yuan why, he could figure out this matter, especially after following Ye Zhen, he benefited a lot.

Balance! This is a truth that Ye Zhen told him. For a superior person, the most important thing for him is balance.

"Commander, Commander!" Personal guard Mu Sanyi ran in quickly, "Commander Ye is here."

"Huh?" The foot soldier raised his head strangely, Ye Zhen came to him so silently, "The commander is here?"

"Yes, but it's quite strange. He was wearing casual clothes and only brought a few followers." Mu San also had a strange expression on his face.

"Let's go, go out to meet you." The infantryman's heart moved, he stepped away and walked out. Ye Zhen came here in a cover-up, afraid that something big was about to happen, otherwise why bother to do it on his own territory? so mysterious.

As soon as he got out of the big tent, he saw the officer on duty walking quickly with several people. The leader was Ye Zhen, the commander of the Central Field Army of the Zhengdong Army stationed in Hejian.

"I've seen the commander!" The infantryman beat his chest with his right hand and saluted Ye Zhen.

"Let's talk in the tent!" Ye Zhen nodded, and while walking in, he said to the people behind him: "Stay at the entrance of the big tent, no one is allowed to come in."

The infantryman's heart skipped a beat, looking at Ye Zhen's face, he seemed to want to find out something, but Ye Zhen's face looked calm, only some excited colors flickered in his eyes.

"It seems that something big is going to happen!" The infantryman was thinking in his heart.

There were only three people left in the tent, Ye Zhen, the infantryman, and a stalwart middle-aged man who followed Ye Zhen. The infantryman looked at each other carefully and made sure he didn't know him.

"Infantry, are you bored in Xinhui?" Ye Zhen dragged a chair and sat down, looking at the infantry, smiling authentically.

"Of course it's boring, it's almost too boring." The infantry nodded and said: "Commander, is there any work to do?"

"Yes, not only work, but also big work!" Ye Zhen said with a smile. "But this time it's a big job, we're just fishing in troubled waters to get a little benefit from it."

The infantryman blinked his eyes, "Is something wrong with Yuyang?"

Ye Zhen laughed, "I know I can't hide it from you." He nodded emphatically, "An accident is going to happen in Yuyang, and it's not a trivial matter. We can't stop it, so we can only fish in troubled waters. If we can get a little bit of benefit, it is a little bit of benefit." Already."

"I don't have enough troops. Besides 500 cavalry, I only have 1,000 infantry. If I want to take advantage of this strength, if I don't do it well, I will steal nothing!" Chin, a little embarrassed.

"Since I'm here, how can I come empty-handed!" Ye Zhen smiled, "The three thousand elite stationed in the county city have already set off in the name of training, and I have already calculated the time. At that time, we can immediately invest in it, so that people will not be suspicious. Anyway, our Eastern Army often goes around in various counties, and even if someone finds out that we are transferring troops, there will be no suspicion."

The infantry clapped their hands, "Okay, the commander has already planned, now I want to know, how do we fish in troubled waters, where is the fish?"

Ye Zhen laughed loudly, "Of course this fish is in Yuyang County. We will take Anlu this time, and there is still a team that we will take into our arms."

The infantry jumped up all of a sudden, "How is this possible? Anlu County has stationed Jiang Xinliang's 3,000 confidantes, and the general Zeng Xianyi is Jiang Xinliang's hard-core confidant, and even helped Jiang Xinliang plot against Jiang Dawei. , The three thousand soldiers in his hand are the essence of Yuyang soldiers, if we really fight, our chances of winning are not great."

Ye Zhen looked at the infantry mysteriously, "Why fight?"

"Don't fight?" The infantryman was a little puzzled, "What is this?"

"Infantry Commander, I'm not joking with you anymore. Let Colonel Niu tell you about the specific situation!" Ye Zhen pointed at the capable man behind him and said with a smile.

The man took a step forward and saluted the infantry: "Niuben, the Overwatch Council, I have seen the infantry commander."

"Bull run!" The infantry said several times in his mouth, and suddenly remembered someone, his eyelids twitched, "Are you from Miss Ning?"

Niu Ben smiled slightly, "Miss Ning is now the vice president of the Overwatch Council, so Niu Ben is naturally a member of the Overwatch Council."

The infantry blinked twice, "Tell me, what is the specific situation?"

"Ten days ago ~IndoMTL.com~ Our wild wolves sent out information at the same time from the hidden stakes in Jicheng and Yuyang. The information showed that Tan Feng decided to capture Jiang Xinliang and formally annex Yuyang County. From what we have so far Judging from the intelligence, Tan Feng has already instigated at least a dozen major generals in Yuyang County. Once the front is launched, Jiang Xinliang will be unlucky. According to the information in Jicheng, Tan Feng's plan is to kill Jiang Xinliang, and the slogan of the mutiny is to welcome back the old governor Jiang Dawei. Of course, Jiang Dawei cannot regain control of Yuyang County. He will be brought back to Jicheng by Tan Feng, with this guy in his hand, Yuyang County will be taken back by the imperial court, and it will be justified."

The infantryman sighed: "Jiang Xinliang is both sides, he wants to please both sides, and it really won't end well. Niu Ben, what are we going to do?"

"Zeng Xianyi is a good friend of Jiang Xinliang's biological mother, so it is impossible for this person to be rebellious, but the three thousand Yuyang County soldiers under him are very capable of fighting, so it is what we want. After Tan Feng launched the mutiny Now, we just need to keep him in Anlu, and when the news that Jiang Xinliang was killed by Tan Feng reaches Anlu, where else can he go?"

"He has almost nowhere to go but join us." The infantryman nodded. "That is to say, Zeng Xianyi, his three thousand soldiers, and Anlu will all belong to us." (To be continued..)
