Chapter 336: Capture Jianchang
19_19934At this moment, in the city of Jianchang Mansion in Dali, Chen 'Yu'jie hesitated, but still took the betel nut handed over by Wu Xi, and reluctantly stuffed it into his mouth.
In later generations, Chen 'Yu' Jie was a smoking gun, and his fingers are still yellow, and his teeth are even more yellow and black. But Chen 'Yu' Jie has no good impression of betel nut that thing, tried it once, and never chewed it again, take Chen 'Yu' Jie's words, "I feel sick to my stomach when I see others chewing betel nut", it seems that some doctors also pointed out that chewing betel nut will cause oral cancer, so Chen 'Yu' Jie is even more respectful. However, the betel nut industry in later generations is getting bigger and bigger in a voice of doubt, claiming that the betel nut industry has reached 40 billion. Of course, the Taiwanese are the earliest consumers of betel nut chewing, but Hunan is behind, it is said that 30 billion of the 40 billion betel nut industry is the contribution of Hunan people, of which 90% of the betel nut is produced by Hunan people, and 70% of betel nut is chewed by Hunan people. Of course, betel nut as an addictive snack, the more later, there is a trend of popularity throughout the country, anyway, there are more and more people chewing betel nut, maybe in a few years, betel nut will be with tobacco and alcohol, become a new economic growth point of the country, become a pillar of tax payment.
Chen 'Yu' Jie is a native of Jiangsu, in the three or four years before Chen 'Yu' Jie crossed, it seems to have become a habit of some people around him to hand over a piece of betel nut to others, which makes Chen 'Yu' Jie feel very helpless, but although Chen 'Yu' Jie hates chewing betel nut, but his own 'smoking' is also criticized, fifty steps of course can not laugh at a hundred steps - others do not accuse me of 'smoking' cigarettes to pollute the environment and burn high incense, Chen 'Yu' Jie naturally will not publicly declare that chewing betel nut is a vice.
Unexpectedly, after crossing over to the Great Song Dynasty, Chen 'Yu' Jie chewed betel nut. First, this is, of course, to prevent miasma, and it is important to save one's own life; Second, as a promising officer of the Great Song Dynasty, Chen 'Yu'jie has the responsibility to play an exemplary and leading role. In other words, at first, the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty were a little resistant to betel nut, but after chewing it a few times, many people became addicted. Don't say it, chewing betel nut really has the effect of preventing miasma, God knows what kind of 'medicine' materials Peng Qinfang 'mixed' in it, but at least there will be no melamine, and the chemical industry of the Great Song Dynasty has not yet developed to the point where it can produce melamine. However, there are a lot of bends and curves in the Chinese "medicine", so the betel nut chewed by Chen "Yu" Jie is a special supply, this special brand is called "Panda", according to Lao Peng, the "Panda" brand betel nut has no harmful additives, the problem is that the betel nut of this "Panda" brand is expensive, and a piece costs ten yuan, and the panda cigarettes of later generations have to fight.
The "panda" betel nut should be mixed with some kind of fragrant 'essence', and there should be wine, but chewing it in Chen 'Yu' Jie's mouth, it is still tasteless, and Chen 'Yu' Jie really can't feel any difference in taste between this and the soldiers' inferior betel nut.
Chen 'Yu' Jie, who chewed high-grade betel nut, did not feel like enjoying it at all, but Chen 'Yu' jie also understood that at least he could not show any bad expression of betel nut in front of people, and finally let a group of soldiers, including generals, develop the habit of chewing betel nut, and cultivate it from a niche market to the current scale, of course, it is not easy to come by, but it cannot affect the enthusiasm of officers and soldiers for chewing betel nut for their own reasons.
In the era of the Great Song Dynasty, chewing betel nut is actually not a new thing, for example, Su Dongpo has a poem "red 'tide' cheeks drunk betel nut", it can be seen that betel nut is a snack in the Great Song Dynasty, but it is not like the crossing of the public to raise betel nut to the height of the industry.
Areca nut is a new economic growth point that the company is striving to build, and now it seems that the prospect is worth looking forward to, according to this trend, perhaps in a year or two, the betel nut industry will become a pillar industry of the public. As one of the shareholders of Mao's Group, he will greatly benefit from the betel nut industry, so now, even if he can't pretend to be intoxicated like the betel nut spokesperson, at least he can't drag his legs back!
Wu Xi in front of him has the potential to be the spokesperson of betel nut!
"Deputy Chief of Staff Chen, Marshal Xin, please come over for a moment." Come and invite Chen' Jade 'Jie is a personal guard of Xin Qiji, now Xin Qiji is the commander of the army, and this matter is not expected in the army, who knows that when the army is about to go out, the imperial court will suddenly transfer back Xin Qiji, in addition to having the title of deputy privy envoy, Xin Qiji is still the commander of all the armies in Chengdu, the head of the Mabu army, and also serves as the envoy of the Sichuan and Shaanxi pacification system, although most of Shaanxi is in the hands of the Jin people, but the Great Song Dynasty also has some territory in Shaanxi, so Xin Qiji, the Sichuan and Shaanxi pacification system, is also quite reliable, and let Xin Qiji hang up this official position is nothing more than to coordinate the deployment of military and political resources in Sichuan and Shaanxi, so that all can serve the war。 At the end of Xin Qiji's long list of posts was the Southwest Pacification Envoy, which was an official post in charge of military and political affairs temporarily established during the war, established during the war, and abolished after the war. With this series of official positions, everything is naturally easy to do, and you don't have to worry about too many constraints.
In short, in a stunned eye, Xin Qiji suddenly changed from a feudal official in the South China Sea to the commander of the expedition to Dali.
Originally, the coach of Dali never thought that he would choose Xin Qiji.
At this time, the famous generals of the Great Song Dynasty withered one after another, and Li Xianzhong, who led the expedition of the "Longxing Northern Expedition", had passed away more than ten years ago, and among the three major generals of the Wu family, the Guo family, and the Yue family, Wu Jue's nephew and Wu Lan's son Wu 'Ting' was the general who guarded Sichuan, and he had long been the general who had led the army for many years, which could be described as prestigious. As for the Yue family, due to the case of the Wind and Wave Pavilion, the descendants of the Yue family are currently the best in the army, Yue Ju, who is still young in seniority, so he is naturally not related to the marshal.
Therefore, the commander of the expedition to Dali, it is rumored that it is either Wu 'Ting' or Guo Gao.
In fact, although Wu 'Ting' was only fifty-four years old, he was already ill at this time, and Wu 'Ting' died in 1193. In addition, first, Wu's 'Ting' department took on the important task of guarding against the golden soldiers, and second, Wu was almost a feudal town at this time, and it was already polite not to cut his military power, how could he still have another chance to be the king of Dali! Therefore, no matter how weak Zhao Dian is, he will definitely not let Wu 'Ting' take on the important task of expedition to Dali again.
In the end, Guo Gao, who was optimistic about public opinion, did not sit in this position, but let Xin Qiji take advantage of it. Of course, there is a credit to Lu Yijian, for a traditional military general like Guo Gao, Lu Yijian is naturally not optimistic, and Xin Qijian has not used force in the South China Sea in the past two years, so he naturally understands the use of firearms, and also knows some supporting new tactics, and now the expedition to Dali, including Wu Xi's team has also been equipped with a large number of muskets and artillery, if you want to choose a commander, regardless of command ability and tactical level, in Lu Yijian's eyes, it is naturally Xin Qijian who is better.
All right! In fact, Zhao Dian himself is also very optimistic about Xin Qiji, which is the main reason why Xin Qiji was able to lead the army to Dali.
Xin Qijian commanded the army, and Chen 'Yu'jie, an expert in firearms tactics, naturally paid special attention to it.
The first thing to do to reuse Chen 'Yu' Jie was to adopt Chen 'Yu' Jie's Jianyì, set up a staff office, and appointed Chen 'Yu' Jie as the deputy chief of staff.
When Chen 'Yu' Jie came to Xin Qiji's command hall, Chief of Staff Guo Ni and the three staff officers were already there.
"Okay, Deputy Chief of Staff Chen has also arrived, now let's study the battle plan for capturing Huichuan Mansion." Guo Ni, as the chief of staff, immediately got up and solemnly announced when he saw Xin Dashuai nodding, well, it looks very regular. But then, Guo Ni "please ask Xin Shuai for instructions" and "exposed" the gap between the chief of staff in Su zhì, and said that Zhuge is simply unknowing, and in the eyes of Chen 'Yu' Jie, Guo Ni is not even as good as the three staff officers here.
Xin Qiji waved his hand and motioned for Staff Officer Tang to speak first.
Staff Officer Tang was not ambiguous, and immediately began to explain the battle plan for Huichuan formulated by the General Staff Office.
In fact, the content of this Huichuan battle plan is not new, but it is an upgraded version of the siege battle plan summarized after summing up the lessons learned from the attack on Jianchangfu.
Speaking of the battle to attack Jianzhou Capital, the original siege plan was to prepare for a siege of ten days and a half months, and it is not bad to be able to capture Jianchang City in a month, after all, Jianchang City is a fortified city, far from being comparable to the rough castle of the Luzon barbarians.
But in fact, it only took three days to attack Jianchang City, and Jianchang City was easily taken. Summing up afterwards, it was unanimously agreed that it would not have taken three days at all, but the problem was that the artillery artillery technology was still a little too bad, from the artillery in place, the erection of the artillery to the test 'firing', and then to the 'firing' of several cannons, the artillery of the Great Song Dynasty tossed for more than a day, so the time was delayed.
There is a hot air balloon school 'shooting' in mid-air, which has made the Dali defenders who believe in God and worship Buddha feel panicked, what is more desperate is that the city wall including the city wall sounded a continuous explosion, the Dali defenders were killed in the explosion of the dead and wounded, and the uninjured also lost their souls, almost instantly, the defenders on the city wall ran clean, one by one ran away from the city wall, only ask the Buddha to bless, don't have that kind of thunder to chase the soul to hit yourself.
This is not enough, according to the tactics formulated in advance, the Great Song Dynasty did not take advantage of the emptiness of the city to rashly attack the city, but approached and set up a mortar, and then swished, flying ** flew to the target, on the city wall, a new round of explosion frenzy was set off before and after the city wall.
When the soldiers of the Great Song Dynasty struggled to climb the city wall, they found that apart from the dead and the immobile wounded, there was no longer a single living person on the city wall who resisted—32133+dsuaahhh+29284891—>.
