Lieutenant General Zhang laughed so strangely, did the soldiers at the front win a great victory?
At this time, there were two or three tables of wine and food in the central army tent. There are three new faces.
As soon as Song Jinxiu stepped into the central army tent, Wei Qiliang came up to her with a smile and said, "Your Highness, I've been busy these days. You've only been here for a few days, and I finally found time to welcome you. Please forgive me."
Welcoming party?
Song Jinxiu suppressed the doubt in her eyes and said with a smile: "No, no, the general is in control of the overall situation and has a lot of things to do every day. This princess is the military supervisor and should assist the general."
"Hahaha, Your Majesty has boosted the prestige of our army. I admire you very much!"
Song Jinxiu: Does this mean that their Dragon and Tiger Camp’s military songs are loud and clear?
Wei Qiliang smiled heartily, then pointed at the three people in the room and introduced them: "This is Chu 굜, the deputy general of the Tenth Army, this is Liu Yunfei, the deputy general of the Twelfth Army, and this is Liu Shaodong, the deputy general of the Sixteenth Army."
Chu Yu, Liu Yunfei, and Liu Shaodong quickly knelt on one knee, raised their hands and bowed, saying: "Your Highness, I greet you, Princess."
Song Jinxiu quickly stretched out her hands to support him, "The three generals have worked hard, get up quickly."
The emperor and his subjects exchanged greetings, and Song Jinxiu was invited to sit in the main seat.
Song Jinxiu asked the three generals about the war in front, and the three generals talked freely. But his words were all about the lack of troops, and he looked at her from time to time, as if he wanted to say something but stopped himself.
Song Jinxiu thought about it for a moment and understood.
They probably took a fancy to their own Dragon and Tiger Camp.
Song Jinxiu remained calm. No matter how the three deputy generals hinted, she never mentioned the Dragon and Tiger Camp.
After three rounds of drinks, General Wei finally spoke.
Song Jinxiu pretended to be stupid, but he didn't have time to wait.
He got straight to the point and said, "Your Highness, the 10th, 12th, and 16th armies are really understrength. I beg you to allocate 1,000 cavalry to each of them. It will be enough to leave 2,000 cavalrymen in the West Mountain Camp to protect Your Highness."
Song Jinxiu nodded, "General, rest assured, the Dragon and Tiger Camp will not be idle."
Wei Qiliang couldn't help but smile with relief.
He knew that to be valued so much by His Majesty, this benefactor must be reasonable.
The three deputy generals also showed pleasant surprises, and rushed to stand up and lead their troops to set off.
Song Jinxiu waved her hand and motioned for them to sit down.
"Don't panic. This princess only said that she would send troops, but she didn't say who would lead them. Please be patient. I still have something to ask you."
The three of them looked at each other: What does this Princess mean? Is it to assess them?
Does that mean that as long as they pass the assessment, the princess will give them soldiers? Maybe if I perform well, I can take these soldiers with me?
The three of them had the same idea, and they were immediately shocked. They suppressed their anxiety and said in unison: "Your Highness, please feel free to ask."
Song Jinxiu looked at them and said, "Well, how many people are there in each of your three armies? What are the casualties?"
These days, she sat in the central military tent, not just to listen to Liu Hai's stories, but also to not miss any intelligence sent by scouts from various armies, right?
Each army had its victories and defeats, and she already had a preliminary understanding of the general situation of the battle.
When she leads troops to the battlefield, she must know more and strive to know both the enemy and herself, so as to be sure of victory.
Chu Yu stepped forward and said with a folded hand: "Return to the palace, our ten armies have 40,000 people, and 30% of them were killed or wounded. If they are capable of fighting, there are 20,000 people."
Liu Yunfei also stepped forward and said, "We have 30,000 soldiers in the 12th Army, and only one or two out of ten have been killed or wounded. Our combat effectiveness is less than 10,000. So I beg Your Majesty to send reinforcements."
Song Jinxiu narrowed her eyes and looked at Liu Shaodong, the deputy general of the 16th Army, calmly, "What's the situation with your 16th Army?"
Liu Shaodong stood up straight and said loudly: "Return to the palace. Our 16th Army has 20,000 soldiers, more than half of them were killed or wounded, and the combat effectiveness is still 8,000."
“Bang!”
Song Jinxiu slammed the table, looked at Wei Qiliang and said coldly: "General Wei, do you know what this princess is best at?"
The four of them were all stunned, not understanding why the prince suddenly got angry while they were talking peacefully.
The three deputy generals, in particular, were shocked by Song Jinxiu's aura and knelt down in a hurry, wanting to plead guilty but not knowing what their crime was.
Song Jinxiu was really angry.
They wanted to divide the Dragon and Tiger Camps, which she could understand. In a war, who wouldn't want to have an extra cavalry?
But when playing this kind of numbers game with her, they said that among the 40,000 men, 30% were killed or wounded, and the number of men capable of fighting was 20,000. Among the 30,000 troops, only one or two out of ten were killed or wounded, so the combat effectiveness was less than 10,000.
She is a PhD in mathematics, okay? Tell her that three minus one equals one?
Are they saying this on purpose to bully her?
Song Jinxiu narrowed her eyes, and her aura was so overwhelming that even Wei Qiliang couldn't help but shiver.
Suddenly, he understood something and hurriedly tried to explain.
Just at this moment, a horn sounded, Song Jinxiu stood up suddenly and strode out.
She only said "enemy attack", and the people had already left the tent.
The three people kneeling on the bed stood up, looked at Wei Qiliang and asked in confusion: "She, why did she leave? Why is the prince angry? Doesn't he want to give us soldiers?"
These four people all ignored what Song Jinxiu said when she left: "There is an enemy attack."
Even the deputy general Zhang Hai who had been standing behind Wei Qiliang didn't pay attention to her words. He just thought that the princess didn't want to send troops and was deliberately looking for trouble!
snort! If there was an enemy attack, the scouts would have reported it. What did she know while she was sitting in the big tent eating?
Wei Qiliang wanted to understand why Song Jinxiu was angry. He sighed and explained to the deputy generals: "You only said the number of casualties, but did not say the number of soldiers who were poisoned. The princess is a doctor of mathematics, the number does not match..."
The three of them spread their hands innocently: "Is this all known? Is there any need to talk about it?"
Wei Qiliang: "But the princess doesn't know? Well, I'll tell her about this myself. You three can take a rest and wait to lead the troops to set out."
"Yes" the three said in unison.
At this moment, a scout came hurriedly to report: "Report, enemy attacks have been spotted in the southeast."
Wei Qiliang turned around fiercely and "prepare for battle"
The three lieutenants also grabbed their weapons and followed their marshal out of the tent.
Wei Qiliang held a silver spear in his hand and jumped on his horse. "Where is the princess? Protect her."
His central army tent was in the rear, so the enemy's main force could not get in. The only ones who came to launch a sneak attack were the enemy soldiers or the soldiers in the village who disguised themselves and sneaked in.
What's more, there are still 5,000 cavalry in the central camp, so he is not nervous. It was just that the eldest princess had left the tent in anger just now, and he was worried that she would be left alone and in danger.
A soldier pointed to the distance and said, "The Princess Royal is riding a horse and leading 5,000 cavalry to fight."
"What?"
Wei Qiliang was shocked and quickly rode his horse to catch up.
Today, the three armies of the Dragon and Tiger Battalion were in charge of patrolling. When they spotted the enemy, they released a signal flare. The buglers of the Fourth Army discovered this and immediately blew the bugle to warn the enemy of an attack.
For example, each of the five armies had a bugler.
Song Jinxiu heard the military call of "enemy attack" in the tent and rushed out.
Wei Qiliang was a step slow when he received the report from the scouts.
Zhang Hai was surprised and asked, "When the princess left, she said there would be an enemy attack. Could it be that she knew in advance that there would be an enemy attack tomorrow?"
Wei Qiliang frowned: When Song Jinxiu went out angrily, she did say "there is an enemy attack", but he didn't care at that time.
The eldest princess said that before the enemy attacked, she heard a bugle call, and she also heard the bugle call.
Could it be that bugle call?
Wei Qiliang understood immediately.
It seems that the bugle made by this girl is quite useful.
