"Brother Cheng, I just said that you can almost withdraw, right? If this comes out two days late, it will not be able to catch up with this big war. ”

At the gate of the Tang military camp, Qin Shandao and Cheng Chuliang followed Niu Jinda and led the army to walk out slowly.

As outstanding students of the Datang Royal Military Academy, Qin Shandao and Cheng Chuliang are the main and deputy leaders of the special combat team.

A normal charge into battle definitely doesn't require people from the special combat team to go up.

However, the new tactics that the Military Academy is trying now are giving Cheng Chuliang and Qin Shandao a chance to go directly to the battlefield.

"If you let His Royal Highness the King of Chu know that you instigated General Niu to put the special combat team on the frontal battle, you will definitely suffer at that time."

Although Cheng Chuliang is also very excited about the opportunity to go to the battlefield.

However, seeing Qin Shandao's stunned appearance, he couldn't help but scare him.

"Cut! His Royal Highness the King of Chu is saying that the greatest use of the special combat team is in the response to skirmishes, reconnaissance, assassination and beheading operations; But I didn't say that I couldn't go to war. Besides, the tactics of our cavalry now are to attack from a distance and try to avoid close contact; By giving full play to the advantages of our new longbow with a long range, the Goguryeo people are in a hurry; In fact, I think this tactic is also very suitable for special combat teams? ”

Compared with his eldest brother Qin Huaidao, Qin Shandao can be regarded as able to speak well.

As soon as Cheng Shiliang scared him casually, he withered.

"The idea is very good, but I'm afraid that when the time comes, everyone will think that our special combat team is afraid of death, and that the people who come out of our military academy will not dare to attack the enemy formation."

Cheng Chuliang's concern is not unreasonable.

Datang's current combat methods are basically based on bravely charging into battle, such as the kind of flexible combat methods trained by the Military Academy, which only occasionally appear in the hands of Li Jing and other generals.

Many people are still not accustomed to the special combat team's "stealing chickens and touching dogs" combat method.

"Brave or not, I don't think the most important thing is the most important thing, what matters is the result! Look at what happened in Liaodong City during this time, how many people dare to ignore the contribution of our special combat team? This time, as long as our ranger tactics can work, what dare others say? Maybe after the war, they all came to us for advice. ”

Qin Shandao is obviously a result-oriented person who only cares about the final victory.

No matter how brave you are, if you are defeated in the end, it will be meaningless.

……

"Your Majesty, the Goguryeo people are going to make a desperate bet. According to the news that the scouts heard, there were only about 30,000 defenders in Liaodong City, and even if there were some errors, it should not be very different. Now I can see that there are about 30,000 soldiers and horses in the city. ”

On a high platform, Li Ji and Li Shimin each held a telescope and watched the movements on the battlefield ahead.

The high platform was already more than ten meters high, and with the assistance of a telescope, even the movements of the Goguryeo people a few miles away could be seen clearly.

"Judging from the situation reported by them after they returned from completing their mission in the city the day before yesterday, the situation in Liaodong City is already very delicate; It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a fluctuating military spirit; In this case, apart from finding us for a decisive battle, the Goguryeo guards could not find a better way. And yesterday we received the news that Kuan'er had sent a message from Pyongyang City, that there was a rebellion within Goguryeo, and that Gao Huan Kwon had already captured Seoul, which was really a rare and great thing for us. ”

Li Shimin's mood is still relatively good.

With 30,000 against 30,000, Li Shimin is still very confident.

"Yes, this time our total number of troops on the expedition is less than 60,000, but the results we have achieved are greater than the three expeditions of Emperor Yang of Sui to Goguryeo; Even taking advantage of this opportunity, it is not impossible to destroy Goguryeo in one fell swoop. ”

"Before Kuan'er set out on the expedition, he communicated with me about the future development of Liaodong. Nanshan Construction Engineering is now constantly expanding the recruitment of craftsmen, and will immediately arrange a large number of craftsmen to enter Youzhou after the end of the war, and begin to build a cement road from Youzhou to Yingzhou, and Yingzhou through Liaodong City. ”

"Yingzhou passes through Liaodong City?" Li Ji was stunned for a moment, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the King of Chu is so sure that his 20,000 water will be able to take the capital of Goguryeo?" He is so confident in us that he knows that Liaodong City will definitely be captured? ”

Although Li Ji had heard of Li Kuan's achievements countless times, he had not had much contact with Li Kuan.

In fact, although Li Ji supported the attack on Goguryeo by land and water, he did not expect Li Kuan, the chief of the Pyongyang Provincial March, to achieve much success.

Being able to appear in Goguryeo with a naval division and help the army attacking from Liaodong attract a part of Goguryeo's troops is already considered to have completed the task.

"Hehe, Mao Gong, you look down on Kuan'er. To be honest, I didn't realize that Kuan'er's military talent was so outstanding; But now it seems that there is no one in the younger generation who can compare with him. Even Xue Rengui and Xi Junmai beside him, or even Su Dingfang, are not as good as him. Don't you think that as soon as Kuan'er arrived in Goguryeo, Gao Huanquan got into trouble, isn't this a bit too much of a coincidence?

Also, Kuan'er said that he had arranged for the East China Sea fishing industry to assist the Japanese people in attacking Baekje, and let the East China Sea fishing industry sell a large number of weapons to Silla, don't you think that the situation in Goguryeo seems to be under his control? ”

Li Shimin's words surprised Li Ji.

If Li Kuan hadn't been passed out, he would have wondered if Li Shimin was reconsidering the candidate for the prince.

"Your Majesty, as long as you defeat the Goguryeo people today, taking Liaodong City is just around the corner. And once Liaodong City falls into our hands, the initiative of the entire Liaodong war will be completely transferred to our hands. ”

"Well, it's a matter of victory and defeat! In a few minutes, the strikers of the two armies will begin to enter the shooting range of bows and arrows, let's see if the new tactics researched by the Datang Royal Military Academy are so effective! ”

Although the new tactics have also been simulated confrontations, they are not actual combat after all, so Li Shimin is still looking forward to the performance of the new tactics.

"The pattern of the rangers aggravating the cavalry is definitely something that the Goguryeo people have never encountered. For a long time, whether it was Goguryeo or Turkic, their cavalry was more flexible than that of the Central Plains Dynasty, and it is estimated that they never thought that they would lose in flexibility, right? ”

Li Ji has also seen the practice of new tactics, and he is really looking forward to what the reaction of the Goguryeo people will be to that kind of depressing combat method.

I haven't thought of a good way to deal with it, can the Goguryeo people think of it?
