Su Dingfang went south, this was a plan that had been set early in the morning.

Li Jing knows it, Su Dingfang knows it, the emperor who is far away in Chang'an also knows it, and even Gao Yang, the deputy general next to him, is also very aware of this matter.

Is the real fist himself or Su Dingfang?

No one knows about this!

Some people say that in ancient times, you can rely on the known history to crush everyone, you can become a prime minister if you mix literature, you can worship a general if you mix martial arts, and you can be an emperor if you rebel.

Actually, for these people, there is only one sentence that can answer them, Sao Nian, you think too much.

Generals, especially the generals who command the side, it is absolutely impossible to have some dry goods in their stomachs, not that they can crush everything with the little history they know in advance, but in fact, they are not.

Take this crusade against Tibet as an example, whether it is the old Li Jing or the newly rising Su Dingfang, these two have left a lot of fame in the history of later generations.

But now, even Li Jing, a man who was called the god of war of the Tang Dynasty by later generations, and a man who has experienced countless wars in his life, still dare not say that he must be that fist.

The real fist is not something you can do if you ask anyone to do it, and there are so many problems involved that you will feel a headache when you think about it.

Why did Li Yuanji set the two coaches as Li Jing and Su Dingfang?

Li Jing is okay to say, whether it is qualifications or ability, others can't question it, but what about Su Dingfang? The ability is a little shown, but neither the qualifications nor the things seen now are enough to be the coach of a side.

However, Li Jing is very clear about the reason.

Everyone can be a general, and the boss, Li Yuanji's most trusted person for the time being is himself and Su Dingfang.

The emperor chose himself because of his cautious, bold, and risky combat style.

Choosing Su Dingfang is completely familiar, all the generals, only Su Dingfang has been with the emperor for the longest time, Li Yuanji knows Su Dingfang, and Su Dingfang also knows the emperor.

The emperor knows when and what choice Su Dingfang will make, so this boss is his, some people question it, but it's useless, the emperor won't listen to this.

"What? The south also attacked? ”

"More than 100,000 people?"

"What? They also exterminated Tuyuhun? ”

"Wocao, it's really unbearable for grandma, and grandpa can't bear it either......"

"That's it, those rabbit cubs have all wiped out Tuyuhun, and what are they doing to rob us of their exploits? Lao Tzu has suffered so much here, and his feelings are to build a fort for them? ”

Li Si's whole person seemed to have been hit by a huge cannonball in an instant, and he wanted to vomit in his heart, but his head was in chaos.

Anger, frustration, scolding, and all kinds of shouts resounded throughout the camp.

And this atmosphere has completely enveloped the previous fatigue, and the entire military camp instantly regained its previous fighting spirit, although the body still has some fatigue.

But in the face of interests, in the face of military exploits, who can manage so much?

The army is full of old fritters, especially the Yazhou Army, each of them is an old fritter with more than two years of military experience.

Although some people have not been in the army as long as the previous old government soldiers, their combat effectiveness is much stronger than that of the old government soldiers.

To use an analogy, these guys now have the experience of an old soldier in their thirties, and the body of a young man in his twenties, fusing experience and body together, what kind of chemical reaction will it produce?

The answer is, more than you think.

No hesitation, no complaints, no stays.

The veterans only ate half full, not even half full, and the rest were kneaded into a section and stuffed into a random place.

Eat too much, and the next forced march will definitely make you vomit to doubt life.

They are infantry, but they are also cavalry, so they have to think more comprehensively, plus they haven't eaten much these days, and they can't stand it if they eat too much at once.

This does not need to be explained, it is common sense knowledge that everyone knows.

Pursuit, there is no need for Li Jing to do any special mobilization, just need to tell them the current situation, and these wolf cubs are full of motivation one by one.

Originally, it was planned to advance only thirty miles, but in reality it did not stop until forty miles had been advanced.

If it weren't for the fact that it was getting dark, these bunnies wouldn't have been willing to stop.

Under the tremendous pressure exerted by more than 100,000 people in the south, who would dare to stop? A little more delay on the road means that they will have less merit in the next harvest.

If the two sides attacked at the same time, then they would have nothing to say, although there were more troops on the other side, and the court was a little biased, but they didn't bother to care about this.

Su Dingfang's goods were destroyed by Tuyuhun first, if he was to destroy Tubo and then let him snatch the first credit, then what should they do?

Day and night, more than 700 days and nights of solid training in the past two years, when he arrived in Tibet, it was even more smooth, until there was no wind and no water, he was cut off of food, and almost fled back to Yazhou in embarrassment.

It's a shame for them, and if there's no competition, they'll choose to go back or stay where they are for a few days.

But now that the wolf is coming, they have no time to rest, if they can't get the first credit, doesn't it mean that their efforts in the past two years have been in vain?

"It's good that the worst fears didn't happen!" Gao Yang, who had just returned from a round of inspection outside, couldn't help but sigh.

"It's all veterans who have been soldiers for a few years, can't you get rid of this difficulty?" Compared with Gao Yang's worries, Li Jing was very calm.

After the team stopped, he didn't go out of his way to make rounds.

Instead, he directly ordered his soldiers to set up their tents, and while hiding in the tents to rest, they were thinking about the next strategic issues.

As for the situation outside, it is the same as Li Jing imagined.

The soldiers are indeed tired, but they are a professional army, and what does it mean to be a professional army? It means that for two years, they are training every day, and sometimes, it is not without a month of training, reasonable distribution of physical strength, reasonable arrangement of rest time, these things are pediatric for them.

The army had just set up camp, and the soldiers just swallowed a few bites of the rice balls left over from noon, and then drank a few sips of water.

Immediately afterwards, they fell directly to the ground to rest, without the harassment of the enemy, although the conditions were a little bad, but before and after, adding up to nearly six hours of rest, these times were enough to ensure that after they got up the next day, the fatigue on their bodies disappeared by about half.

This is the difference between a professional soldier and the government military system, a soldier who only relies on regular training every year cannot compare with a soldier who trains all year round.

A five-kilometer run five times a year, and a five-kilometer run once in three days, I won't say what the difference is, everyone knows it.

"But the soldiers are so tired, almost all of them fall asleep, even the soldiers on the sentry are a little drowsy, the dinner prepared by the man, few people have eaten it until now, most of the soldiers just eat the rice balls left over at noon, and if it goes on like this, there will be problems." Gao Yang continued.

"This is the only way to do it in extraordinary times." Li Jing shook his head, he didn't think there was anything wrong with doing this, but some problems still had to be considered: "Send someone to talk to the guy, let them arrange to be on duty at night, if any soldiers are hungry, give them some heat, and let them not have to get up early tomorrow, today's dinner can be regarded as tomorrow's rebellion." ”

"In addition, tell the ministries that it is okay to rob military merits, but you must not be desperate for military merits, at this time our army is the time when morale is high, and at the same time it is the time when vigilance is the lowest, if it is ambushed by the enemy's design, the consequences are unimaginable." Looking at Gao Yang, who was about to leave, Li Jing hurriedly ordered.

This was what he was most worried about, and the news released had indeed succeeded in arousing the morale and determination of the soldiers.

But the progress of the plan of thirty miles has advanced forty miles, and there is nothing to see in the short distance of ten miles, but if you look closely, the shape of your marching army is completely gone.

The main force can be said to have done nothing along the way, just rushing forward.

But the logistics troops couldn't rush so fast, they had to carry 40,000 people a month's food, and some weapons and equipment, although they sent thousands of people to protect them, but now there is still a distance of ten miles between the two sides.

It's a good day, but it's a big deal that they will walk a little longer tonight, and they will be able to keep up with tomorrow morning, but if this is the case every day, the battle line will drag on sooner or later.

You can't let the logistics be transported around the clock, right? Even if people can stand it, war horses can't stand it.

Of course, what Li Jing is most afraid of is whether the other party has a plan.

deliberately let himself feel that Su Dingfang went south, and they hurriedly returned to help, and when they pursued for days, dozens of days, or even longer, they suddenly turned back and gave themselves a ruthless blow.

You know, the position you set up earlier is still there.

And when they broke through at that time, they didn't completely destroy it, and they didn't even destroy it deliberately, if the Tubo people used those offensives to block it.

Although he is confident to defeat them, this time, it will not be as smooth as the last time.

But Li Jing didn't say these worries, there was no need, and he didn't want the soldiers to worry about them.

But not saying that it doesn't mean that he didn't do it, Li Jing even scattered the scouts far away, and even probed forward to a distance of two or three days, but this is still not safe, scouts are not omnipotent, and it is impossible to never miss certain places.

After a night's rest, the fatigue of the soldiers dissipated a lot, and there was some red light on their faces.

The man was a little later than usual, but by the time it was dawn, the hot meal was ready.

On the march in the field, there was no way to ask for any delicious food, rice, fried noodles, water, vegetable foam, and the small amount of diced meat mixed in the rice, and after distributing the rations for the whole day, the baggage team that had been pulled down yesterday finally followed.

Then the whole army entered the second day of the frenzied pursuit......
