The army marched northeast along Pingre Avenue, with the South Heavenly Gate in front of it. Advisor Li pointed to the front with his hand and said to Commander Sun: "Commander Sun, you see that these are the Nantianmen and the Eight Buildings, both of which are the ancient Great Wall. With his astonishing eyes, Commander Sun held the saddle bridge with his hand and looked there. Consultant Li continued: "Back then, when the Ming Dynasty was first decided, Zhu Yuanzhang, a generation of emperors, saw the importance of the geographical location of this area. Ten miles north from here, there is the Gyeonggi key Gubeikou, so he sent the general Xu Da to bring troops to this area to rebuild the Great Wall......"

The Great Wall built by Xu Da was taller and stronger than the Great Wall of all previous dynasties.

By the middle and late Ming Dynasty, with the corruption of officialdom and the decline of the regime, armaments were slackened. When the emperor listened to the words of the traitorous ministers, canceled the mutual market at the border pass, and the nomads outside the border did not have the mutual market trade, and began to intensify the attack on the Ming Dynasty, and the northern passes such as Gubeikou were often in a hurry. In this case, Emperor Wanli had to urgently transfer Qi Jiguang, a famous general in the south to fight against the Japanese, back to the north.

“…… Qi Jiguang first systematically analyzed the situation at the border passes at that time, and believed that the most important task was to build the Great Wall first. After he sent people to carefully measure and design, and then organized large-scale construction on the basis of the Great Wall built by Xu Da, the Great Wall of Jizhen was finally repaired, and the nomadic horse team no longer wanted to come in from here. However, General Qi Jiguang did not just stand on the Great Wall and look out at the Mongols herding horses...... His gaze was always far, far away. ”

It can also be said that Qi Jiguang met someone who appreciated him, and he was Zhang Juzheng. With the support of Zhang Juzheng, the prime minister of the dynasty, he participated in and manufactured a large number of artillery and firearms, equipped the Qi family army guarding here, and most importantly, he also sent ancient chariots to the battlefield again. The Mongol Tatar soldiers were not dead set on attacking the Ming Dynasty, which Qi Jiguang had already seen.

However, the Mongol iron cavalry, which still used cold weapons, was beaten to death and wounded by artillery fire that had never been seen before. After a few battles, the original invincible Mongol leaders, such as those who knew how to be in the middle, had to give in and beg to surrender in person, thus temporarily giving up the attack on the Ming Dynasty......"

When Commander Sun heard this, he resonated strongly, and he said with emotion: "At that time, there were advanced weapons and equipment troops? How much does that cost? It's a pity that my 41st army stole Tanglin, and I didn't equip myself, and now I have killed devils, and I still use the old guns and inferior cannons...... Alas"

Don't look at Commander Sun's lack of culture, but accepting new things is really different from ordinary people. Then he asked: "Advisor Li, what you said about General Qi not only repaired the Great Wall, but also went out to seek opportunities to fight with the Mongol cavalry?" Adviser Li has been with him for these days, and he has found out that he admires the military strategists in history the most, so he said with a smile: "According to historical records, Qi Jiguang led the Qi family army out of Gubeikou or Xifengkou, and looked for opportunities to destroy the enemy many times. He pointed to the north with his hand and said: "The first battle was fought in the area of the Chaohe River outside the Gubei Mouth, when the Mongol army also called the Tatar soldiers to come from the steppe and swept along the Chaohe River. But they had never seen a chariot or a cannon cast of iron, and they were absolutely surprised. The forward iron cavalry rushed up and was dumbfounded when they saw iron bumps on each chariot.

Just as they were stunned, Qi Jiguang ordered the firecrackers to rush out of the chariot first, and the firecrackers shot indiscriminately, beating the Mongolian iron horsemen to the point of turning their horses on their backs; When the main force in the back came up, the musketeers withdrew to the rear, and the artillery was set up in the muzzle, exerting its power, and with a burst of artillery bombardment, the original invincible Mongolian soldiers were beaten with only few legs, and the living ones ran back crying and shouting for their mothers......"

When Commander Sun heard this, he was exerting his imagination as a commander, such a battlefield situation, if it was our army against the Japanese, it would be good!

Mr. Li saw him pondering there, and then continued: "The artillery and guns of the Qi family were very advanced at that time, but later in the Qing Dynasty, China's military industry did not move forward, and most of the weapons we use now are imported from other countries, or learned from them.

At present, China, why has it been bullied by foreign powers since the end of the Qing Dynasty, one is that the Qing Dynasty implemented a policy of closing the country to the outside world, and you can't learn world-class things at all; Second, our industry and military are too backward, so people will take advantage of us, and third, warlords are fighting each other, causing them to take advantage of the ......"

Commander Sun Jun talked about China's situation and the current situation of the world through Mr. Li, which was an eye-opener. It is clearer to understand that outside of China, outside the sea, there are many, many countries, and several of them, like Shiba Dog, are staring at China's carrion and want to take a bite more.

He also learned from the things that happened to foreigners in China in modern times that he understood the behavior of various foreigners coming to China. Among the great powers, there is a small country as small as a projectile, that is, the Japanese devils who have already occupied the northeast and come to Rehe to kill people and set fires. They are the closest to Northeast China, only separated by the narrow Sea of Japan, and for many years have been occupying the Northeast of China, running rampant and domineering, and committing crimes.

It's like a person who doesn't leave someone else's house, it's just two things, either worrying about other people's money or worrying about other people's women...... From the end of the Qing Dynasty to Yuan Shikai, and then to the warlord ruling government, they all blindly tolerated foreigners. Let the little Japanese devils occupy Lushun and Weihai, occupy the northeast and rehe, and even the Gyeonggi places like Beiping and Tianjin have Japanese soldiers, is my China still called a country? Let a small country bully?

He looked at Advisor Li and said heavily, "It's too shameful for me to be a soldier...... If the whole country is united with the outside world from the beginning of the Wuchang Uprising, a few little Japanese devils will never do much harm. Damn, Yuan Shikai, Duan Qirui, Feng Guozhang, and Chiang Kai-shek, all fucking play their own family and country. Little devil, when General Qi was in general, he was a wolf, and he wanted to rely on them to realize his own calculations, didn't he seek skin with the tiger?"

Adviser Li heard that he had an epiphany, and knew that it was the united front people sent by the party organizations who had played a role in what he had said along the way. In fact, as a senior commander, Commander Sun is still very easy to get along with, and the national disaster and family feud made him suddenly cherish the national righteousness...... But it's not a one-man job, and the work done by everyone has finally worked. The biggest role should be said to be the organization to stand tall and see far...... plays the biggest role.

At this time, Ding Boting, the commander of the 117th Brigade, rode his licorice yellow against the marching brigade and came on horseback, he gave a military salute to the commander of the military department, and then said to Commander Sun: "Commander Sun, the key to the mountain shape here is a place where soldiers must fight.

The 73rd Regiment of our brigade is estimated to have arrived in Zhuozhou, can one of them be ordered to be stationed here, thinking that it will respond when our department retreats? If it is feasible, he can order his deputy head Sun Chenghua to take a section here to raise grain and grass in the name of it, and he can also get in touch with Beijing and collect ......Japanese intelligence by the way." After speaking, he saluted the commanders and turned his horse back.

Deputy Army Commander Zha Fengting listened to his words and felt that it was very necessary, looked at Army Commander Sun and said: "Brigade Commander Ding has always been cautious in his thinking, this proposal is feasible...... Commander Sun waved his hand to stop Brigade Commander Ding, who was turning his horse away, and said: "This plan is very good, feasible, let's discuss it." If you have this kind of good policy, you can just send your subordinates. The march of the three armies, don't work too hard......"
