Du He's master is Su Dingfang. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

On the first day when Su Dingfang came to Huangzha Bay and joined Li Su, Du He came to visit his master Su Dingfang.

Du He learned martial arts and the art of war with Su Dingfang since he was a child, and basically got his true inheritance. Later, he followed Li Su and Li Dan to fool around and became the three evils of Chang'an. Su Dingfang ignored him anymore, and they had not been in touch for more than four years now.

Su Dingfang's tent.

"Master." After Du He came in, according to the etiquette of the disciple to meet the master, he knelt down and saluted Su Dingfang.

Su Dingfang happily stepped forward to help him up, and said, "Duhe, I haven't seen you for a few years, I have grown taller and stronger, good, good." ”

Since Li Su suddenly became powerful, the three evils of Chang'an are now a well-known good young man of the Tang Dynasty, and he has also become a legend.

His own apprentice is out, and he, the master, naturally has a light on his face.

Du He has followed Su Dingfang to learn art for many years, and Su Dingfang's indifference to him once made him very sad. Now, seeing that the master was so enthusiastic about him, his heart was sour, and he cried wow.

Su Dingfang couldn't help but moisten the corners of his eyes when he saw Du He's true feelings for him.

That night, the open-minded master and apprentice talked all night until the sky turned white, and then they rested.

The next day, Duhe, who had unloaded his baggage, was refreshed and still refreshed despite the lack of sleep last night.

Li Su was the commander in charge of the overall situation, and Su Dingfang was in charge of the training of the troops.

Su Dingfang was one of the prodigies in the Tang Army, and Hou Junji had already taught him all the things he had learned from the general Li Jing. Su Dingfang can also be regarded as one of Li Jing's disciples.

Li Su was pleasantly surprised to find that Su Dingfang's ability to command the army was really amazing. He was well-organized and experienced, and the armies of the three steppe tribes all admired his military talent, and quickly improved the level of training and formed combat effectiveness.

After several large-scale exercises, all arms and units have been able to coordinate well with each other.

For military matters, Li Su was a layman, so he handed over the command of the specific army to Su Dingfang and other military generals. However, he also wanted to do something for them, so he checked the advanced tactics of ancient cavalry combat through Baidu and copied them out for the generals' reference.

One of the main forces of this battle was the steppe cavalry, the most glorious of which in history was the Mongol cavalry commanded by Genghis Khan in the 13th century, who once swept across Eurasia and established the largest empire in the world. His innovation in cavalry tactics has been published in countless research articles in later generations.

Li Su spent a few days copying the summary, and then took it out for Su Dingfang and others to refer to.

Genghis Khan's cavalry tactics, the main tactical idea is: attack is the best defense.

The Mongol army went out to fight and never stuck to one city or one place. In this way, there will be no baggage, and there will be no dispersion of forces. The army is mobile and flexible, and always maintains the best fighting condition.

Commonly used tactics are:

First, the method of heart-to-heart warfare.

Concentrate forces to attack the positions of the enemy's central troops. The Chinese army is where the enemy commander is located, and as soon as the commander falls, the whole army collapses.

Second, roundabout tactics.

It is to avoid the real and the virtual, lightning tactics. This tactic is to avoid the fortified city with a large number of people, first besiege but not attack, send troops to attack the secondary city, cut off the support for the main city's troops, food and grass, and cause the main city to run out of ammunition and food, and collapse without a fight.

3. Fraud.

This tactic was the most commonly used and most skillfully applied by the Mongol army. Using the effect of the rapid retreat of the cavalry to paralyze the enemy, the enemy commander who could not hold his breath would chase after the Mongol army and often fall into the trap of the Mongol army.

The characteristics of the countries of the Western Regions are that they build cities in places with abundant water and grass, and each city is a city-state. The Western Turks developed by conquering the surrounding city-states.

The distance between the cities is relatively long, and it is difficult to support and cooperate with each other in the event of a war.

Genghis Khan's tactical thinking and cavalry tactics are very suitable for the regional environment of the Western Regions.

When Li Su put forward such a guiding ideology and specific tactics for operations, he immediately won the approval of Su Dingfang, Qi Bi Zheluo, Ashina Zhong, Ashina Qing, and others.

Li Su has always wanted to build a special forces, but now it is too late to train them, but the ideological methods of special operations can be used for reference.

The main tasks of special forces are raiding and sabotage, reconnaissance behind enemy lines, stealing intelligence, emergency rescue, psychological warfare propaganda, special security, and anti-subversion, anti-agent, anti-sneak attack, anti-terrorism, and anti-hijacking.

For special forces, I won't introduce them all here. Li Su selected 100 veterans with outstanding skills, and temporarily set up a special forces unit, with Zhao Dashan in charge, and only let them practice two techniques.

First, climb the city. It is to let them practice using climbing tools such as flying claws and ropes, and use the night to sneak attack the city defense.

Second, camouflage. It is to let them blend into the enemy's city, waiting for an opportunity to sneak attack, assassinate and destroy.

It was this special forces unit that had mastered simple skills that played an important role in the battle of the Western Regions, and it was also the prototype of the development of the Datang special forces force.

The first time he commanded the army, Li Su was also a little nervous, but he knew that the war was not fought by himself, he just had to grasp the overall situation, so in addition to guiding the special combat team and managing logistics, he basically did not interfere in the education and training of the army.

The generals who let go of their hands and feet felt that King Liang trusted them and took more responsibility.

It's April 13th, and there is still no news from Tang Fei.

Waiting is the hardest thing to bear. Li Su was idle, so he fought the landlord with Du He and others. In order not to affect the morale of the army, Yang Kang set up many sentry posts around King Liang's camp to prevent them from being discovered by the soldiers who were training.

In fact, his worries were superfluous, Su Dingfang and others had experienced a hundred battles, they were not worried that King Liang was idle, but worried that he would be troublesome. A layman leader is too diligent and an absolute disaster. Fortunately, this King of Liang, except for them looking for him, basically did not show up.

Ashina Qing rarely comes to his big tent, and even if she does, she is looking for yarn to play, and she often goes to her tent to pick yarn.

Tai Chi Hall, Li Shimin's study.

Fang Xuanling said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Liang and the expeditionary force are well hidden, and the strategic intentions have not been exposed, but I don't know how the Honglu Temple is going." With an army of 40,000 plus craftsmen and a grain transport team of 50,000 horses, it was difficult to hide for a long time. ”

Li Shimin said: "Tang Fei and they are far away from Yumen Pass, but if you count the days, it should be here." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji was a little worried, and said: "His Royal Highness King Liang is young after all, and the ministers are a little worried......
