The first exercise in Zhongyi Town lasted for three full days. When the last moment came, the Huaiyuan Battalion could already see the town in the distance, but they still failed to enter the town.

The cavalrymen of the Tiger Cavalry Battalion were too arrogant at first and thought they could directly defeat the Huaiyuan Battalion. As a result, they suffered a loss in front of the infantry formation.

Seeing this, Wanyan Chengde quickly stopped Wanyan Chenghu's attack.

The Tiger Cavalry Battalion soon discovered that it was difficult for the cavalry to break through the formation directly, so they immediately changed their strategy and monitored the Huaiyuan Battalion from a distance. Once the Huaiyuan Battalion moved, they would expose their weaknesses and launch an attack again.

The exercise goal of Huaiyuan Camp is to move to a town twenty miles away within three days.

This is to simulate the Zhongyi Town infantry, meet the Mongolian cavalry in the wild, and move to nearby towns.

Generally speaking, if an infantry encounters cavalry in the wild, if it cannot enter a town, it will be quickly wiped out by the cavalry.

After Wanyan Chenghu changed his strategy, he divided the Tiger Cavalry Battalion into two teams, with one team monitoring and the other team resting and eating.

Once the Huaiyuan Camp makes food or moves, the cavalry will swoop up.

This made the Huaiyuan camp immediately fall into a passive position. Not only was it anxious to eat, but it was also afraid to sleep at night. By the end of the exercise, many soldiers lay directly on the ground and fell asleep.

To fight against the cavalry, the infantry must maintain a tight formation, and to maintain the formation, they must form a formation on the spot. Wanyan Chenghu asked the cavalry to monitor the cavalry at all times. Once the Huaiyuan Battalion moved, they immediately attacked and harassed the Huaiyuan Battalion, ultimately preventing the Huaiyuan Battalion from entering the town.

As soon as the time came, a team of cavalry galloped out of the command post, arrived at the exercise venue, and arrived between the two armies. They announced loudly, "Huaiyuan Battalion did not arrive at its destination within the specified time. The exercise command post determined that Huaiyuan Battalion failed! Tiger Cavalry

The battalion wins!”

"Haha~" Wanyan Chenghu couldn't help laughing when he heard the result.

Li Chunzhu patted the shoulder of Zhou Baoguo, who had tearful eyes, and said, "We have not been defeated by the cavalry so far. We have fought well. Let's take the brothers back to rest!"

At this time, the cavalry was ordered to gallop over, "Commander Li, the marshal wants you to go to the command post!"

At that moment, Li Chunzhu got on his horse, followed the cavalry, and arrived at the exercise headquarters with Wanyan Chengde and others.

At this time, several people entered the big tent and immediately saluted Zhao Tai, "I humble myself to pay homage to the commander-in-chief!"

Zhao Tai glanced at several people, smiled and said: "No courtesy!"

Zhao Tai motioned for everyone to sit down, and then continued: "This exercise is our first confrontation exercise. Although the rules are not perfect, it finally ended successfully!"

As he spoke, Zhao Tai looked at a few people and said, "Although this exercise is not a real war, I hope that everyone will take it seriously and learn from experience and lessons. The result of this exercise is that the Tiger Cavalry Battalion wins, but I hope you will

With the money and food of one Tiger Cavalry Battalion, I can support ten Huaiyuan Battalions. Although you won, you still eliminated nearly a thousand men and horses. If you fight like this, you don't know how to exercise control. If I, the Commander, have thousands of cavalry, it won't be enough for one or two battles.

Are you about to be reimbursed?"

Wanyan Chenghu knew it was him he was talking about, so he quickly bowed his head and saluted, "I know I'm wrong in my humble position!"

Zhao Tai nodded slightly, then looked at Li Chunzhu and said: "Although the Huaiyuan Battalion was defeated, you fought well! After you go back, you must make a good summary, and I will further improve the rules and drill scenarios, and then carry out large-scale

Confrontation training!"

Several people saluted one after another, and at this moment, the curtain was lifted, and Zhao Tai's adopted son Zhao Hu walked in.

Seeing this, Zhao Tai immediately sent Li Chunzhu and others, "You have worked hard for three days of practice. Go back and rest!"

Li Chunzhu and others clasped their fists and saluted, and then left the tent.

Zhao Tai looked at Zhao Hu and asked in a deep voice: "What's the matter?"

Not long ago, Zhao Tai established the intelligence agency Jinyiwei, which is responsible for collecting intelligence and arranging detailed operations.

Zhao Hu is now in charge of the Jinyi Guard. He took out a piece of information from his sleeve, "Commander, a letter from Zhao Gui!"

Zhao Tai raised his eyebrows when he heard this, took it over and looked at it, and immediately frowned.

Zhao Guiren was in Yidu. On the surface, he was sent by Zhao Tai to deal with trade matters with Li Fen. In fact, he was sent to collect intelligence and establish an intelligence base.

Wokuotai led the Mongolian army back to the grassland to rest, but he did not give the Jin Kingdom a chance to rest.

In the west, there was Subutai attacking the east of Henan, but in the east of the Jin Kingdom, there was no one to guard and command.

Therefore, Wokuotai sent Tasi, the grandson of Muhuali, to Jinan to take charge, governor Hebei, and the Shandong army to launch an attack on the Jin army.

He hoped that Tasi could force the Shandong Jin Army back to Henan. Even if he could not, he would still waste the Jin Army.

In this way, he was resting on the grassland, but the Jin army had no chance to rest. Over time, the army would become tired.

At that time, he will lead his army south from the grassland and pass by the recharged Mongolian army. It will be easy to destroy them.

After Tasi arrived in Jinan, in order to implement Wo Kuotai's plan, he immediately summoned three Han warlords, Zhang Rou, Shi Tianze, and Li Fen, and asked them to send troops.

Among these three people, Li Fen didn't want to fight, but Zhang Rou and Shi Tianze were not in a position to fight. The two of them suffered heavy losses and had not replenished their personnel, so they would definitely not be able to defeat the Jin Army.

However, despite this, the three of them could only grit their teeth and agree to Tasi's wish to hold Ogedai high.

After Zhang Rou and Shi Tianze returned to Hebei, they went to gather people. When Li Fen returned to Yidu, he asked people to find Zhao Tai's business representative, Zhao Gui, and informed Zhao Gui of Tasi's plan.

At this time, Zhao Tai frowned slightly after reading the letter, and said in a deep voice for a while: "Go and call the right military advisor!"

Zhao Hu bowed and hurried out of the tent, while Zhao Tai lit the letter and threw it into the basin.

Not long after, Wang Bin entered the commander's tent, bowed and said, "Commander, are you calling me?"

Zhao Tai smiled and said: "Sir, please sit down. I have something to discuss with you!"

Wang Bin asked: "What's the matter?"

Zhao Tai said: "I have just received the news that Wo Kuotai sent Meng general Tasi to Jinan, and this Tasi gathered Zhang Rou, Shi Tianze, and Li Fen to attack us!"

Wang Bin frowned, "Then Li Fen suffered heavy losses in Huainan and has not yet recovered. Zhang Rou and Shi Tianze have just experienced a disastrous defeat in Xuzhou. Do they have the strength to attack us?"

Zhao Taidao: "Judging from the intelligence I have received, Tasi's intention is not to defeat us, but to use these three towns of soldiers and horses to hold us back and prevent us from resting and producing!"

The Jin army had just experienced a great battle, and the soldiers had not even taken a few breaths. They had to go to the front line again, and they would feel exhausted both physically and mentally. A long-term war would inevitably demoralize the army.

In addition, war consumes the most money and food. Once the front is engaged, tens of thousands of horses and horses will go to the front, and more than 100,000 people will be needed to transport food and grass from the rear, and a large amount of labor will be requisitioned, which will definitely affect production.
