At this time, not only those generals saw the change of the wind flag, but even those soldiers really saw it.

"The south wind is blowing, how is this possible?"

"yes, how can there be a south wind in winter?"

"I've heard the story of Kong Ming borrowing the east wind, could it be that the marshal can also spell, so he borrowed the south wind?"

……

Whispers were heard in the crowd, and everyone was amazed by this miraculous thing.

At this time, Li Canghai cleared his throat and said loudly: "Soldiers, I know that you are all wondering, why is the south wind blowing at this time? Some people even think that I learned Zhuge Kongming to borrow the south wind, but what I want to tell you is that I don't know how to spell, and I don't have the ability to cast spells to borrow the east wind. ”

"I think, as you all know, we only have 40,000 soldiers and horses to fight against the Japanese this time, and there are less than 100,000 soldiers and horses in Silla. That's not enough for half of the allied forces of Dongying and Baekje! I know that you all think that you can't win this battle, and the court sent you to die, but what Ben Shuai wants to say is not so! We will be able to defeat the allied forces of Dongying and Baekje, and we will be able to return alive with honor! ”

"You may not believe in Ben Shuai, but you should believe in your eyes! When the north wind is howling, but the south wind suddenly blows, this is not something that can be done by one person, but by heaven! God bless my Datang, God bless all the soldiers! ”

Li Canghai said impassionedly, and all the soldiers were also excited to hear it, and nodded one after another.

Gao Xianzhi instantly understood what Li Canghai meant, he wanted to take the opportunity to inspire everyone's confidence, so he took over and said loudly: "What the marshal said is true!" This is a good omen from heaven, indicating that our army will definitely return triumphantly! God bless the Tang Dynasty, forever and everlasting! ”

No one doubted what Li Canghai said, the south wind blowing in the cold winter was an incredible thing in itself, not to mention that it happened that when the army was sent to fight against the Japanese, everyone thought that it was a good omen.

Because, they all knew that the imperial court had an order to rush to Silla within two days.

Now there is only one day left, and just when everyone has given up hope, the south wind suddenly blows, how can they not be surprised? How not to like it?

No one is not afraid of death, but they have no choice, so they prefer to believe that it is a good omen from heaven to bless them with a safe return.

"God bless the Tang Dynasty, forever and forever!"

"God bless the Tang Dynasty, forever and forever!"

……

For a moment, everyone raised their weapons and shouted in unison.

The roar of tens of thousands of people, like bursts of muffled thunder, rushed straight into the sky, echoing endlessly over Gulang Reef.

"All the soldiers obey the order, board the ship, and set off!" Li Canghai shouted.

The 40,000-strong army immediately began to board the ship in an orderly manner, and it took only half an hour for the 40,000-strong army to complete the boarding.

Datang's ship technology has developed extremely well, a warship can carry more than 300 people, and this time they have 500 warships, it is easy to load all the soldiers and soldiers, and it does not seem crowded.

Five hundred warships set sail and headed in the direction of Silla with the help of the south wind.

Datang's navy is not only large-scale, but also extremely advanced. In order to meet different operational needs, it is divided into six types of ships.

They are: building boats, Mong, fighting ships, boats, yachts, and sea falcons.

The six types of ships have different functions, the building ships are tall, about three stories high, equipped with heavy crossbows, throwing chariots and stone iron juice, like city ramparts, and the weapons are fully equipped, which is used for the ship.

The ship is covered with raw cowhide, the two compartments are open, and there are crossbow windows on the left and right, front and back, and it is a closed ship. This kind of ship is long, narrow, light, and very fast, and is mainly used for raids and reconnaissance.

Fighting ship, the ship is set up with a three-foot-high female wall, under the wall open a hole, five feet inside the ship and build a shed, and the female wall is flush, and the shed is built on the female wall, re-arranging the enemy, there is no roof cover on the roof. The front and back left and right tree tooth flags, banners, and golden drums are used for this warship.

The battering ship is a cascade structure, where soldiers can meet the enemy in a cascade arrangement, while rowers are hidden in the cabin and rowed through holes.

The boat is similar to the ship, but it is lighter and more agile than the ship. On the side of the female wall, there are many husbands and few soldiers, all of whom choose the elite of bravery, and go back and forth on the water surface like flying gulls, which is the main attack weapon at sea.

Yacht, no female wall, oars bed on the side, left and right with the size of the length, four feet a bed, the plan will advance and stop, return to the army, turn the formation, its speed is like the wind, Yu Hou dwelling, mainly used for command and dispatch, and military reconnaissance.

The sea falcon is named because of its low head and high tail, large in front and small in the back, like a falcon. Floating plates are placed on the left and right sides of the board, shaped like the wings of a falcon, to help his boat, although the waves are terrifying, but also to maintain stability, even in the harsh weather, can also fight on the river and sea.

In addition to ships, the navy also has a lot of equipment configurations.

In addition to the commonly used knives, swords, spears, guns, bows, and crossbows, the main weapons also include winch crossbows, shooting rods, gun carriages, and supporting arrows and stones.

Although Li Canghai had heard Li Jinsheng talk about the introduction of the Tang Navy when he was in Yangzhou, when he saw it with his own eyes, he couldn't help but feel extremely shocked.

It is said that the Tang Dynasty is strong, along with the four seas, but he never thought that during the Tang Dynasty, the strength of the navy had developed to an unprecedented height.

On the ship, Li Canghai and a group of generals gathered at the bow of the deck to study the next move.

"Marshal, there is something unclear in the end, and I want to ask the marshal for advice." Feng Changqing bowed his hand.

Li Canghai glanced at him and said, "You want to know, why is there a sudden south wind on this day?" ”

Feng Changqing was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Li Canghai to be able to see through his thoughts, so he nodded and said, "Marshal Mingcha, this is exactly what the last general wants to ask." ”

Not only Feng Changqing, but even Gao Xianzhi, Su Hai and others all looked at Li Canghai in unison.

Li Canghai smiled slightly and said: "Actually, it's very simple, if you want to know why the south wind blows, you just need to read through the Book of Changes." One year old and twelve months, for the six yin and six yang elephants, the 64 hexagrams of the 12 hexagrams with the 12 earthly branches, each month also has a corresponding hexagram. In this way, month by month, in the last month of Hai, which is now October, the hexagram has become a kun hexagram. Kun is the realm of pure yin. The so-called cathode is yang, so there will be a small spring in October, when the temperature rises for a few days, and the southeast wind will blow. And this time is three days before and after the arrival of the solar terms. Although it is now September, but this year there is a leap in February, and it is a month earlier than in previous years, and I have already calculated the time when I came, knowing that there will be abnormal weather today, so I decided to mobilize the army of the Yakuza and march by sea.
