Chapter 33: Frog Jumping Tactics (I)
Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
Under the shock of the "Third New Tokyo" in the floating city in the clouds, the Generalissimo Mansion of Hebei Soldiers and Horses in Xiangzhou was unable to make any hostile acts, so he decisively chose to give up and knelt down in front of the Bianliang Imperial Court, or Guo Jing, the real person who protected the country.
-- His Royal Highness Zhao Gou, the leader of the Xiangzhou separatist group, "embraced illness" and went out to greet him, saying that he was not in good health and was only a shallow learner, so it was really difficult for him to take on the important task of being the generalissimo of the soldiers and horses of Hebei, so he was ready to resign from his errand and return to Bianliang in Tokyo to recuperate, and by the way, he "discussed the state of the country" with the imperial brother.
As for Wang Boyan, the deputy marshal and governor of Xiangzhou, the number two person of the Xiangzhou separatist group, he flattered this Guo Daxian with boundless powers. Hearing that the Northern Expeditionary Army wanted to expand its troops, he immediately helped Zhang Bang recruit warriors, and heard that Guo Jing wanted to get more baggage ordnance, and opened the treasury of Xiangzhou, allowing Guo Daxian to move it at will. In addition, a small private treasury was also used, and beautiful singers and sumptuous banquets were prepared for the labor army for many days...... I just hope that the real person who protects the country can say a few more good words for him, so as not to be held accountable by the imperial court in the future and end up in exile in Lingnan.
In this regard, Guo Jing readily agreed - anyway, since he came out this time, he does not plan to go back to Bianjing, no matter what, he can be perfunctory casually.
In view of the above situation, Guo Jing's work of recruiting strong men and warriors and replenishing heavy materials in the Xiangzhou army was carried out very smoothly with the cooperation of the local government - compared with the drunken and gold-obsessed world of Bianliang in Tokyo, there are always slightly more hot-blooded men on the battlefield here in Xiangzhou, Hebei. And, looking at this beautiful castle in the sky above your head, who wouldn't want to go up and take a look?
In addition, in order to have a good relationship with this real person who has boundless power, at least he is familiar, and the generals of the righteous army and the forbidden army have also selected strong martial artists from their own troops and sent them to the real person to listen to the dispatch. And as a favor, Doraemon also had to send out a lot of superfluous magical props such as wall-piercing scrolls, stealth scrolls, strong pills, and divine power gloves, which were supposed to be a return gift, and as a result, there was a lot of chaos in the future - for example, someone used the wall-piercing technique to steal things, and even sneaked into the woman's boudoir as a flower thief, etc......
In fact, Doraemon's five-story Japanese-style castle can't actually hold too many troops - that castle looks majestic, but space is limited after all: how many people can be crammed into even a modern five-story student dormitory? Not to mention that in this limited space, it is necessary to stuff food, forage, cavalry horses, heavy infantry armor, daily living bedding, cooking utensils, fuel, etc...... As a result, there are fewer troops that can be accommodated.
In the end, after some careful assessment, Guo Jing recruited 700 volunteers who were proficient in martial arts and strong in Xiangzhou, counting the people brought from Beijing Bianliang before, a total of 600 infantry, 100 cavalry, and 100 miscellaneous soldiers, known as "800 heroes" to the outside world......
As for Zong Ze, the governor of Cizhou, who traveled all the way, and his two hundred personal guards, they parted ways with Guo Jing and others in Xiangzhou and were ordered to return to the defense area - since Zong Ze left with his troops, the defense forces on the Cizhou side have almost been emptied, and they are now about to be in a state of anarchy, and that side is the first line of the confrontation between the Song and Jin countries, so the imperial court is very criticized, and before he came out, he warned Zong Ze not to lose his governance.
As for the Northern Expedition, Guo Jing and Guo Daxian took care of it single-handedly - anyway, no one thought that such a small army could do anything big.
However, for the sake of the reputation of the traverser, for the sake of Doraemon's adventurous hobby, and for the reward points used to get out of this world, Guo Jing and other traversers are destined to do a series of major events that will change history, and even poke a hole in the sky!
Of course, before that, Wang Qiu was shocked by the names on the roster of soldiers.
β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»β»
ββ¦β¦ Yue Fei, Niu Gao, Wang Gui, Han Shizhong...... God, these familiar names in "The Complete Biography of Yue" are all put together! Sitting in a room in the castle of the "Third New Tokyo", looking at the national heroes recorded on the roster, and then looking at Yue Fei, who was taking care of weapons and armor beside him, Wang Qiu couldn't help but feel like the world was spinning for a while, and he couldn't even say a word.
ββThis is Yue Fei? This is Yue Fei, who has shone in Chinese history for a thousand years and is praised by future generations as a national hero?
Thirty merits and fame, dust and earth, eight thousand miles of clouds and moon......
Drink bitterly with Jun and smash Huanglong......
The Storm Pavilion is clear every day......
In the past, the scene of traveling in Hangzhou Yue Temple, the statue of the military costume under the plaque of "Return My River and Mountain", and the memory of reading "The Complete Biography of Yue" all appeared in front of me one by one. Looking back at Qin Hui, who was writing a recital for the imperial court, Wang Qiu suddenly had a feeling of time and space confusion.
What made him feel even more confused was that Yue Fei was holding a Japanese knife at this time, like a Japanese swordsman, carefully rubbing the blade with a thick cloth.
- That's right, what Yue Fei is holding in his hand at this time is a Japanese sword, or Japanese samurai sword.
Wang Qiu initially thought that Yue Fei's Japanese sword was a thing taken out by Doraemon, but later it became clear that it was actually an original munition of this time and space - in the Song Dynasty, which reached the maritime trade, Japanese swords were a bulk import in the international trade between China and Japan!
The reason why there is such a market demand is that although the scholars of the Song Dynasty were weak by nature, most of them used incense sachets, dust whisks or folding fans as accessories. But there are also some literati and writers who pretend to be brave and brave, and they will like to imitate the legacy of the Han and Tang dynasties and wear some blades with them. Among them, the Japanese sword is one of their favorite collections: first, the Song Dynasty's war sword was too heavy, and the frail literati often wielded it; Secondly, those seemingly chic swords, although they are both light and have Li Bai's chivalrous style, they lack practical value, and even the little thieves who rob with wooden sticks often can't prevent them.
Therefore, the sharp and lightweight Japanese sword became an excellent choice for the naturally romantic Song Dynasty scholars: first, it was relatively lightweight, and even those who lacked martial arts could wield it; Second, it's sharp, making it quite suitable for dealing with lightly armoured, unarmored targets. If any daring thief comes to rob with a wooden stick, then as long as he swings a knife, he will often even have to cut off the wooden stick and his arm!
Of course, if it is against the hoplites wearing armor, this kind of Japanese sword, which is more sharp and less weighty, will not be of much use, and often it will break into several pieces when it hits the iron armor, or at least it will be curled...... But the Song Dynasty scholars did not plan to go to the battlefield to fight the enemy soldiers, as long as they could draw their weapons to scare the bandits who blocked the road and robbed them when they were traveling, it was more than enough.
In this case, the Japanese sword, which was light in weight and gorgeous in shape, became an excellent choice for the Song Dynasty scholars and doctors to show off and defend themselves.
In the same way, because the tortoise shells of the enemy's heavy infantry or heavy cavalry could not be cut, most of the swords of the Song Dynasty were only circulated among the people, and the regular infantry in the forbidden army rarely used them. But Yue Fei is a cavalryman, and the basic weapons officially equipped with are bows and arrows and horse lances (cavalry spears), and if you hang a military war knife, it will be a little too bulky, so you can only choose a short sword, dagger or a Japanese knife as a spare melee weapon. And the current Japanese sword, is his private collection from nowhere, whether it is dismounted after the battle to cut off people's heads, or when walking out to carry self-defense, it is quite useful, so it is regarded as a treasure by Yue Fei, who was born poor, and is often taken out to maintain and wipe.
-- I have to admit that this is indeed a very precious and good sword, with a flexible handle made of cooked cowhide and a scabbard wrapped in shark skin, and the silver butt between the two is shaped into the shape of a unicorn, with smooth and lively lines. After pulling the knife out of its scabbard, you can see a cold cold light like autumn water shining out, which is really a bloodthirsty weapon that is quite handy.
However, the characteristic weapons of the Japanese samurai, placed in the hands of the national hero Yue Fei, always made Wang Qiu, a modern person, feel a little strange.
It seemed that Wang Qiu's eyes were too weird, so he quickly attracted Yue Fei's attention. He first stopped wiping the knife, looked at whether there was anything wrong with him, and then asked Wang Qiu tentatively: "...... Doesn't this Taoist know me? β
ββAt this time, Wang Qiu was dressed in a green shirt and robe, and his public identity was Guo Jing's eldest disciple...... Well, in the modern world, he is indeed a student of Professor Guo and has taken his Marxist philosophy class......
ββ¦β¦ Uh, this ...... I don't know! Wang Qiu hurriedly shook his hands and glanced at Yue Fei at the same time. Now this future famous general and national hero does not seem to have a pair of big and small eyes as recorded in "The Complete Biography of Yue", "...... It's just that the real people who protect the country are gathering the generals and preparing to discuss the battle of the Northern Expedition. Also invite the officials to enter, don't delay the military discussion......"
