Chapter 34 Determination
After days of marching, Chu Ze has also become accustomed to the bumps of horseback, and his thighs and buttocks do not hurt at this time, I am afraid that he has already grinded out the cocoon, and he can endure the food made by the fat Huotou Army now, and he can endure to eat it, the living cannot be starved to death, no, eat and eat, Chu Ze is still determined that after the end of this war, a simple military food must be invented!
There were frequent scouts who rode back quickly from the front, Chu Ze could probably guess that he was almost in Liangzhou City, and sure enough, after a while, there was a herald who ordered the whole army to set up camp and rest and rectify!
The sky in the entire Liangzhou region is gray, as the throat of the ancient Silk Road, the official road in the past was an endless stream of ordinary people, groups of caravans. And by this time it was long gone. The dead grass piled up on both sides of the road, and a smell of blood could still be smelled from the direction of Liangzhou City from a long distance, showing a kind of dead air everywhere.
Thousands of people in Liangzhou City were slaughtered, their property was plundered, houses were burned, and women were raped, Chu Ze could imagine that a tragedy was staged in this border city not long ago. This is another great shame for Datang since the Weishui Alliance, and this battle has become a national war to wash away the shame.
The wind is like a knife, blowing so much that people feel pain all over the body, the wind blows, and the withered grass and yellow sand are rolled up together, but no amount of withered grass and yellow sand can not cover the inhumane massacre before, after camping, imagining the tragedy that happened in Liangzhou City, Chu Ze had to have an anger in his chest, and there was nowhere to vent! He walked out of the barracks and threw a set of punches, fierce and powerful, hitting the strong, and the muscles of his whole body were tangled like rocks.
After playing a complete set of punches, Chu Ze was already drenched in sweat, and the muscles on his body were even more oily and slippery, but he still didn't give up, took his spear, and put on a starting pose. Take a gun, stop a gun, turn a gun, catch a gun, and use a gun...... The gun came out like a swimming dragon, and Chu Ze's eyes were focused.
"Good skill! Good marksmanship! ”
Li Jing inspected the camp after discussing the matter, and happened to meet Chu Ze practicing martial arts, stopped his horse and looked at it, and shouted out unconsciously when he saw the highlights.
put away the gun, saluted Li Jing, and stood straight aside.
Chu Ze's military aura in his previous life made Li Jing look at himself twice, and he stroked his beard and said, "What's your name?" Where? ”
Chu Ze said, "Back to the big handsome, the boy Chu Ze is from Taiping Village, Yangquan County, Chang'an City!" The tone is neither humble nor arrogant, but at this time, the excitement in my heart is almost uncontrollable, "This is the god of the Tang Dynasty, do you want to pat the ass and hug this thigh, it's black and hard!" ”
"Chu Ze?" It seems that he has heard this name somewhere, Li Jing thought for a while and didn't think about it, so he didn't think about it anymore, and said, "Chu Ze, what do you think of Liangzhou City ahead?" Even Li Jing himself didn't know why he would ask such a question to an ordinary soldier.
Chu Ze also didn't expect such a question, combined with the experience of his previous life and his understanding of history, after thinking for a while, Chu Ze said, "Liangzhou City is very close to Tuyuhun Realm, if you can't solve the army in Liangzhou City quickly, then as soon as the Tuyuhun cavalry arrives, the war will be complicated." And Liangzhou is very close to the Dangxiang and Xiqiang tribes, if these tribes join the Tuyuhun camp, then the whole battle situation will be even more complicated! Therefore, our army must deal with the thieves in Liangzhou City before the arrival of the Tuyuhun army, so as not to let the rebellion in Liangzhou City affect the overall situation, otherwise, the whole situation is extremely unfavorable. ”
"This kid is not simple!" This is the first thought in Li Jing's heart after listening to Chu Ze's words, the scouts reported in recent days, plus the information reported by some spies, all show that the Dangxiang, Xiqiang and other tribes are ready to move at this time. It's just that I don't know where this kid in front of me got it, could it be that he deduced it just by virtue of the location of Liangzhou City, that is really a genius!
"You go on." Li Jing nodded and motioned for Chu Ze to continue.
"I'm afraid there won't be too many soldiers left in Liangzhou City by the Tuyuhun thief soldiers, but their elite are brave and good at fighting, and they can't be underestimated, so the key point in taking Liangzhou is a surprise attack."
Li Jing nodded unconsciously: "The big strategy should be like this, but how to implement it?" ”
Chu Ze didn't want to lose the opportunity to show his face in front of Li Jing, this was the military god of the Tang Dynasty, he thought for a while and said: "Now that the weather is cold and the north wind is strong, you can send elite soldiers to quietly climb the city wall and solve the soldiers on the city wall, and then open the city gate, our army will crush the city, thinking that the Tuguhun thieves can't resist it!" ”
"The city wall of Liangzhou is about a few feet high, if you want to climb it, how can you do it? If you use a ladder, it will inevitably disturb the thieves on the city wall. Li Jing thought for a while and said. Li Jing didn't think of launching a surprise attack in this way, but he couldn't climb the city wall.
Chu Ze forgot that the Tang Dynasty at this time, the tools used for siege were basically cloud ladders, and there was still no anchor hook at this time. After thinking about it, Chu Ze said, "I have a tool that can help people climb the city wall!" ”
Hearing that Chu Ze had tools to climb the city wall, Li Jing hurriedly spoke: "Huh? What tools, take a look with me. ”
"Please also ask the marshal to give an order, and the blacksmith in the general will find it, and this tool will be obtained!"
"Come with me!" Although he didn't see the tool Chu Ze said, from Chu Ze's eyes, Li Jing saw confidence, he chose to believe Chu Ze's words and was willing to try it once.
Chu Ze drew the style of the anchor hook of the later generations to the blacksmith, and soon a Tang Dynasty version of the anchor hook was born, looking at the strange object in front of him, Li Jing looked at Chu Ze very puzzled and said, "How can this help people climb the city wall!" ”
Chu Ze took the anchor hook in his hand and said with a confident smile: "This is an anchor hook, the tail can be tied with a long rope, and if you throw it out hard, you can easily grasp the branches, walls, and climb through the rope to assist climbing." ”
Seeing that Li Jing still didn't understand, Chu Ze said, "Wait a minute, Dashuai, wait for me to find a long rope to demonstrate to Dashuai." ”
Li Jing nodded, without words.
A long rope was found in the barracks, and the rope was firmly tied to the anchor ditch, and there was a tree not far in front of him, Chu Ze said, "Dashuai come with me!" ”
After Chu Ze shook the anchor ditch in his hand a few times, he threw it towards the tree, pulled it hard, and hung it very firmly. Holding the rope with both hands, then bending his legs and clamping the rope, his legs were straightened, Chu Ze climbed the rope and quickly climbed up towards the tree, and then went down the long rope.
Li Jing high-fived and praised: "Good! The end is good, such a tool can be a siege weapon! "Because of the excitement, his face is a little red, an important problem has been solved, how can he not be excited!
Li Jing quickly walked up to Chu Ze and said, "I don't know if you dare to lead the soldiers to climb the city wall and open the city gate?" ”
Chu Ze didn't expect that Li Jing would let him go to Dengliangzhou City, and Lang said: "If you don't dare, you are willing to go." ”
"Okay, worthy of being my Datang man! You can pick a group of elites, move with you tonight, and raise torches after opening the city gates! ”
"Subordinates obey!"
Li Jing turned around and returned to the tent, gathered his generals, and arranged tonight's answering task.
"Dashuai, how can the city gate be opened?" A black-faced general scratched his head vigorously, and couldn't understand how the gate of Liangzhou could be opened, so he opened his mouth and asked.
Li Jing just smiled slightly, did not speak, and looked like a mountain man with his own clever plan.
