Chapter 80: Knowing the Destiny of Heaven
In December of the twenty-third year of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, near the end of the year, the flames of war were completely ignited in the land of Shenzhou, and the war between the Red Alliance and the White Alliance broke out in full force.
In mid-December, Wang Daoming led 5,000 troops, took the Xijiang waterway, crossed the Lancang River, passed through the three districts of Hua, Jiangsu, and Xia, and attacked the main force of the Third Army of the White League from the back.
In the twenty-fourth year of Kaiyuan, in January, Wang Daoming led the main force of the First Army of the Red League to rush to the aid of Chishui, with 6,000 to 20,000, divided into six teams, guerrilla warfare, and dragged the enemy's main force of 20,000.
In March of the 24th year of Kaiyuan, the enemy army was reinforced, and 20 planes bombed the theater repeatedly, and the enemy attacked in a closed circle, while on the one hand, the situation in other theaters became more and more severe, and there were nearly 200,000 red troops, of which less than 150,000 remained.
On March 14, the twenty-fourth year of Kaiyuan, Li Hongxing ordered the whole army to withdraw from the theater and prepare for the first strategic transfer in the history of the Red Alliance!
In this great transfer, except for a small number of Red League troops who continued to remain in the Soviet area to carry out revolutionary struggle, the large forces of the Red League were divided into two parts and broke through the encirclement separately.
At the meeting, all cadres expressed their support for Comrade Li Hongxing's strategy, and Li Hongxing also said that now is the most difficult period, and we need to unite as one to tide over the difficulties together.
In the twenty-fourth year of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, in early April, the Red League began to withdraw from the Soviet area, and the First Army Corps, the Third Army Corps led by Li Hongxing, and the Thirteenth Army Corps led by Zhu Tianhua chose to go south.
The revolutionary command group, temporarily composed of Li Hongxing, Wang Daoming, and Zhu Tianhua, took full command of this major strategic shift in the name of the Central Revolutionary Military Commission.
In the twenty-fourth year of Kaiyuan, from mid-April to mid-May, the revolutionary army led by Li Hongxing, Wang Daoming, and Zhu Tianhua broke the three blockade lines of the White Alliance Army one after another, and fought bloody battles all the way, reducing its strength from 80,000 to 60,000.
At this time, the Red Alliance did not raise all its forces to break the last two blockade lines of the White Alliance as expected by the White Alliance, but marched directly to the west, forcibly crossed the Dadu River, and flew to capture the Luding Bridge, intending to climb over the snow-capped mountains in order to avoid the encirclement of the White Alliance.
It's April, the weather is starting to get warmer, the mighty Red Alliance Army, cooking at the foot of the mountain, in front of the snow-capped mountains, towering like clouds, endless, the top of the mountain is white, all of them are ice and snow that will not melt for thousands of years.
The continuous snow-capped mountains, like a long dragon lying horizontally, completely cut off the way forward.
At the foot of the mountain, there are soldiers cooking, the green smoke is filling, the fragrance is overflowing, and there are also soldiers who go to the nearby farmers' houses, wanting to buy a little rice wine and chili peppers.
The chili pepper is spicy, and people eat red faces and red ears, which is a good thing to keep out the cold, although the Red Alliance has been prepared before the big transfer, but in this situation, cotton clothes are still seriously insufficient.
Moreover, the temperature on the snow-capped mountains is dozens of degrees below zero, and the cotton clothes are not cold-resistant, but no one is afraid, they firmly believe that they can turn over it, and the revolution will definitely win!
It's a belief of steel!
After breakfast, each person only carried a little dry food, and began to climb the mountain, the temperature on the snowy mountain is lower at night, if you want to climb over, you must be daytime!
At the front of the team, Wang Daoming was wearing a white linen coat with a lot of bandages wrapped around his arms, Li Hongxing was wearing a military coat and a black rain cloth on his back, which was better than nothing, and Zhu Tianhua was also wrapped with a lot of bandages and wearing a gray military uniform.
In the past few days, Wang Daoming and his entourage have experienced more than 20 large-scale battles, large and small, and their wounds were wounded by shrapnel when they broke the three blockade lines of the White Alliance.
In such a large-scale battle, firing on both sides, the personal martial arts are really insignificant, even with the martial arts of Wang Daoming and Zhu Tianhua, on the battlefield, there is always a danger to life.
Although their bodies and minds are extremely keen, and they can sense the danger in advance before the autumn wind moves, but in the battlefield, there are bullets and bullets, and danger is everywhere, and this kind of keen sensitivity is not of much use.
With their martial arts, they can only try to avoid some fatal injuries, and it is impossible not to avoid the slightest damage.
However, how strong their vitality is, this injury is nothing at all, although they are wrapped in bandages, their injuries are actually half healed, and they are not life-threatening.
"It's snowy!"
Walking on the path made of ice and snow, Zhu Tianhua suddenly reached out and caught a snowflake, which turned out to be snowing heavily.
"Since ancient times, success is three points in people, seven points in the sky, now is the first snow mountain, a little snow is nothing, if you climb over the back of the snow mountain, it is also snowing one after another, things will suffer!"
Looking at the boiling snowflakes, Li Hongxing's eyes showed a trace of melancholy.
He is not a god, he can calculate everything, from ancient times to the present, marching and fighting, the time of day is very critical, this era, different from later generations, there are the sky into the sea, the clouds and rain, the clouds to see the sun's scientific and technological means, many things have to depend on the time of the day.
"The wind is howling, the clouds and rain are moving north, this should be the last snow on the snow mountain in Sichuan District, and the next ten days should be sunny!" Suddenly, Wang Daoming opened his eyes, and his words were faint, but full of persuasion.
It turned out that Wang Daoming had his eyes closed all the time just now, and he didn't rely on his eyes to see the road, but relied on telepathy.
In the realm of Wang Daoming, the world seen with the heart is actually clearer and more real than what the eyes see, and you can see many things that the eyes can't see.
The heart is like a mirror hanging, reflecting the universe, and Wang Daoming is using his heart to sense the vast universe, the changes of heaven and man, and try to exhaustively study the changes of heaven and man.
Sixty thousand troops marching in the mountains, meaning like steel, nine deaths without regrets, this kind of belief, gathered in one place, although the eye is invisible, but if you feel it with your heart, it is a spark gathering, with fire to change the sky, originally it was ten times more terrifying!
This is a kind of polishing, but also a kind of refinement, suffering, so that the soul of the 80,000 army blooms with the purest and most fiery light!
Li Hongxing was stunned when he heard this, and said: "What level have you practiced martial arts to now, and you can predict the changes in the sky in the next ten days?!" ”
Li Hongxing can also do feng shui physiognomy, and his attainments are extremely high, but the terrain in the mountains is complex, the earth qi is through, and the undercurrents are turbulent, even with his attainments, it is difficult to predict how the celestial phenomena will change in the future.
The so-called weather in the mountains can change, and this is the truth, one moment it may be a big day, but the next moment it will be a heavy downpour.
Wang Daoming said: "Confucius has a saying, fifty know the destiny of heaven, I now have access to heaven and earth, I can feel the ghosts and gods of the four directions, this realm can be called knowing the destiny of heaven." It's a pity that I still haven't been able to get to the point where I know the blessings and misfortunes after all, otherwise, I would be able to go to the Southern District now and kill Gu Zhongzheng! ”
