Chapter 69: Under the Five Elements Mountain
I stroked Luo Rou's slightly pale face, she has also suffered a lot in the sea life these days, I said to her distressedly: "You rest first!" I'm going to inspect the barracks! ”
Luo Rou leaned on me lightly and said, "I have already asked He Ruitian to set up a guard, after all, we are in a foreign country, and we must not lose our heart to guard against others!" ”
It was precisely when I saw that the army was very tired, and I was afraid that everyone would only rest and not be fortified, so I wanted to set up a guard for the night. (No pop-up window reading) people's hearts are separated from the belly, although Zheta seems to be a good person, but does this country really welcome us? At that time, I still vividly remembered the scene of the enemy's attack on the camp on the first night of my arrival at the front, and now, as the commander of the First Army, I naturally had to be careful not to allow these 10,000 people to suffer unnecessary losses. Now that Luo Rou has thought of me in front of me, I have nothing to worry about, Luo Rou is as careful as a hair, although He Ruitian has a big temper in the perennial battle, but he has extremely rich experience in marching and combat, and with the two of them arranging a guard, I am naturally relieved. didn't say much, fell on the bed and hugged Luo Rou and kissed her forehead and closed her eyes. I myself was quite tired, almost fell asleep on the pillow, and slept until the next day, when I woke up, stretched my waist, and the hardships of more than ten days were swept away, and I only felt full of energy. Luo Rou seemed to have woken up a long time ago, and when she saw me wake up, she smiled sweetly at me and said, "You're awake!" With that, he lowered his head and studied the things on the table.
When I stepped up to see it, it turned out to be a map of the city, which was very sketchy and seemed to have been drawn improvised.
"Are you studying the route of the march?" I wrapped my arms around her slender waist.
Luo Rou's face flushed slightly, and said, "Just take a look, this is the map of the city that I asked An Boya to draw for me, it is very simple, if it is used for war, it will be bad!" ”
I didn't care, "There's no way around it, we can't expect the Cham people to give us a map of their own!" Then others will not be able to wage war against others for us! ”
Luo Rou smiled lightly: "I also know, that's why I asked An Boya to draw a rough picture for me!" ”
"Anyway, we're not here to go to war with them anyway. Let's go, eat grass and go! ”
"Freshen up first, I'll go fetch water!" Luo Rou broke free from my embrace, lifted the curtain and walked out, and after a while, she walked in with a basin of hot water. After serving me to freshen up, I had breakfast. Ordered people to call He Ruitian and Wu Tianyue.
The decision I announced was very confusing to both of you.
After hearing my decision, Wu Tianyue immediately objected: "General Wang, the order I received is to send you to the port of Toulon and then cruise nearby, firstly to deter the occupation of the city, secondly, to provide support to you in battle, and thirdly, to receive you to board the ship and evacuate by sea when the war is unfavorable. Now you let all the sailors return to the country, this is very contrary to the order of General Kang, and it is difficult for me to obey my fate! "As the commander of the sailor, he doesn't know much about me, maybe he only thinks of me as an incompetent person who has won such a position by pleasing Kang Yan by talking about it, and he has achieved this position by fighting with a knife and a gun, so he doesn't have much respect for him.
I said, "I made this decision after careful consideration, and it was not made on the spur of the moment. As soon as you leave, we are faced with a situation where there is an enemy in front and the sea in the back, and we are almost turtles in an urn......"
Wu Tianyue immediately interrupted me: "Yes! Carrying the army against the water is a taboo for soldiers! If something happens in the battle, the army will be in a worrying situation! ”
I nodded, "Yes, I know!" I'm just trying to give you the determination to fight against the odds, and admittedly, it's a bit risky, but I think it's worth it. I want all the soldiers to have this belief, and in the face of such an environment, everyone can only have any hope of survival until they keep attacking until they break through the multi-state army. I let the sailor leave is to take away the luck psychology in everyone's hearts, "even if we can't win, we can run", leaving only fear, fear in life and death will also turn into fearless courage, bold determination, everyone knows that we have no way out, everyone reports the determination to die and fight to the death with the enemy, combat effectiveness multiplied, even if we are a group of turtles in the urn, we have to bite the captured enemy a few bites. ”
Wu Tianyue also agreed with me, but he felt that this was too risky, and in case of an accident, he could not bear this responsibility.
I waved my hand and said: "I am the commander of this battle, General Kang has an order, and I will act arbitrarily, even if something happens, I will bear it, and it will definitely not affect General Wu." ”
Wu Tianyue had no choice but to obey.
At noon, Luo Rou and He Ruitian and I went to the dock to see the sailor leave.
On the dock, Wu Tianyue hugged his fists and said: "I hope that a qiē will be as the adults wish, and may the adults win and succeed immediately!" ”
"Definitely, take care on the road!" I'm sure of it.
The fleet slowly sailed away from the dock and slowly disappeared into the water.
On land, the army looked at this qi in amazement, with different expressions of incomprehension, entanglement, panic and so on on his face, and his heart was also a mixed array of flavors.
I wrapped my voice in my internal force and said, "Yes, you read that right, the sailor brothers have left, and they will not come back!" ”
An exclamation of "Ah......hh
"Yes, I know, it's a little different from what you were getting the news about. But it's too late to say anything now, I just want to ask you, do you want to live? ”
"Yes!" The army said in unison.
"Desperately want to!" The army had quieted down, but Brother Niu's loud voice sounded.
"Yes, now we have to work hard, if we want to live, we have to work hard! Only by fighting the enemy and slashing all them under our guns will we have a chance to live. I don't want your fear right now, you'd better throw your fear out of the fucking nine days for me, knowing that cowards won't survive this journey. Since I want to live, I will take out all the strength to breastfeed, and people will block and kill, and Buddha will block and kill Buddha. As long as we show a hundredfold courage, we will be invincible, we will definitely be able to fight back home, and everyone will be a hero at that time, money, power, and beauty, I guarantee that every one of them will be missing from you. ”
"Kill, kill, kill!" The fighting spirit of the army was stimulated by me, and the shouts of killing were everywhere for a while, and the murderous spirit of the entire dock was intense.
At this point, I knew that it was almost over, and ordered He Ruitian to lead the army back to the camp to prepare for the pull.
In a short time, the army was ready, and slowly drove out of the port of Toulon and headed north. He was accompanied by Zheta and his twenty men. There are many checkpoints along the way, and with his leadership, we will not have a lot of trouble.
An Boya looked up at the five peaks on the coastline not far away and said: "There is the famous Marble Mountain of Tolon, and the five peaks are Jinfeng, Mufeng, Water Peak, Fire Peak and Earth Peak, so it is named Marble Mountain!" ”
I laughed and said, "Oh, I don't know if the monkey was crushed under this mountain back then." ”
An Boya understands the ten cultures of the Central Plains, and he naturally understands the story of Tang Seng learning scriptures, so he smiled: "It would be good if it was, then this Five Elements Mountain would be even more famous, and I am afraid that the pilgrims who come here every day will not be able to calculate." It's a pity that it's just a legend, and this place is not the legendary Five Elements Mountain, Tang Seng went to Tianzhu from Xinjiang in the west of the Central Plains, and he never went here at all. However, whether it is Champa or Annam, the influence of Buddhism is quite far-reaching, and Buddhism is respected as the state religion in China. In Champa, only the Palaminism can compete with Buddhism, and coincidentally, both of these sects originated from Tianzhu. ”
I said, "Not only your country, but also our country is deeply influenced by Buddhism, and now Taoism is in decline, and Buddhism has become the largest religion in our country, and there are countless believers. ”
"The reason why Buddhism flourished is actually related to the teachings they advocated, Buddhism talks about cause and effect, emphasizes reincarnation, leads people to goodness, purity and indisputability, which is very conducive to the ruler to rule over the people, so it can be accepted and carried forward by all countries."
An Boya used to be in Annan and was definitely a person under one person and above ten thousand people, and he was naturally proficient in these statecraft.
"The development and growth of Confucianism in the Central Plains is actually quite similar to Buddhism, Confucianism talks about the respect of the elders and the young, the three outlines and the five constants, to put it bluntly, it is to let the people get used to being ruled by people far away from the temple, swallow their anger, and do not make the emperor rebel. Only in this way can the rule of the empire survive forever. If Confucianism puts forward the doctrine of 'princes and princes will have a kind of Xiangning', I am afraid that the next day will reproduce the scene of the first emperor burning books and pit Confucianism! ”
I have to say that I agree with An Boya's remarks, but we didn't dwell too much on it, such a topic was talked about in public, if it reached the ears of those in power that day, I am afraid we would all have a lot of trouble, so the topic was pulled back to the quiet and elegant Marble Mountain not far away.
"On the top of the peaks of Xiujia, the peaks are full of caves with mountains and rivers, majestic and solemn temples. It is not only a good place for literati and scholars to gather, but also a good man and woman to sincerely worship the holy mountain of Buddhism. Marble Mountain is also the most famous jade producing area in Champa, and there are many merchants who come here every day to buy jade. The unique geographical advantages, rich jade mines, and beautiful scenery make the Marble Mountain area extremely prosperous and rich. ”
"It's a pity that I don't have time, otherwise I must go up the mountain for a tour!" I said.
"It's not bad to look at the beautiful scenery and march! At least I don't feel very tired. Luo Judo.
I nodded, the pleasing scenery can indeed reduce everyone's sleepiness from the mind, but Wangmei can't quench his thirst in the end, and painting cakes can't satisfy his hunger, but if he rests in the mountains for a night and recovers his body, I believe the army will be even more excited.
It's just that we have only left the port of Toulon for three or four miles, and the sound of the sea crashing on the shore can still be heard clearly.
