Chapter 558: Oath (Summoning Monthly Pass)
Some foreign generals looked confused, they did not understand, what kind of tragic tragedy happened in the Central Plains that year, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty several expeditions to the east of Goryeo, all of which used Shandong as a base for attacking Goryeo's manpower and material resources, and added military palaces in this area, swept the floor for soldiers, and most of the strong men were conscripted as soldiers. The heavy labor and burden of shipbuilding in Donglai, as well as the hard labor of transporting grain to Hebei, all of these heavy burdens were pressed on the heads of the people of Shandong. After the three expeditions to Goryeo, Shandong had ten rooms and nine emptiness, and the original fertile land for thousands of miles was uninhabited.
After the song, the four fields were dark, there was a cry, and the eldest grandson Wuji knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, my army is on an expedition, why bother to make such an ominous sound?" ”
Uncle Li didn't answer, stretched out his hand and picked up the eldest grandson Wuji, and in the sound of hunting flags, he turned back and got on his horse, and rode straight up the high slope next to the riverbank, looking back. I saw that tens of thousands of Tang soldiers had stopped crying in pain, and stood solemnly on the riverbank like endless pines and cypresses, staring at their eyebrows.
Uncle Li reined in the horse and turned several times on the high slope, and the front hooves of the horse soared into the air, sighing, Uncle Li stared at him and asked loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, which of you have relatives who are not in Liaodong?" ”
A fierce wind whistled, and on the bank of the river, one arm after another and the cold light overflowed with swords.
Uncle Li's mount seemed to be unable to endure this oppressive atmosphere, and he pedaled all four hooves vigorously, and Uncle Li controlled the horse on the top of the high slope while shouting: "Ten years of great cause, Emperor Yang of Sui swept the ground and became soldiers, so that millions of people were lost in Goryeo." Now, thirty years have passed, and countless Central Plains families are still in pain. Today, I and you have not only pacified Liaodong, crossed the water of Yalu, and in front of it, the capital of Goguryeo, I ask you whether you would like to return to your hometown with the bones of the helpers in obscurity, or with me! "With a choking sound, the sword on his waist came out of the sheath, and the cold light overflowed." Together with me, step on Goguryeo! I want to destroy the sword soldiers of Goguryeo here, and build a huge monument with the wall stone of the capital city of Goguryeo, with the inscription: The Sui Dynasty conquered Goguryeo, and the souls of 100,000 Han family sons and daughters will be forever! Uncle Li waved the treasure knife in his hand and shouted wildly.
Tens of thousands of sergeants raised their weapons and shouted: "The sons of the Han family set foot in Goryeo!" The sons of the Han family set foot on Goryeo! The sons of the Han family set foot in Goryeo!! "The huge sound and waves converged into a torrent of waves, sweeping the sky and the earth, and the wind rolled up, melting the blood oath of tens of thousands of soldiers of the Tang Dynasty into the clear sky, Goguryeo, they could only bow down and tremble under the iron hooves of the Tang Dynasty...... ---------------------------------------------------- tens of thousands of soldiers took three days to collect all the bones together, Yuan Tiangang and other more than 100 divine doctors and magic sticks also did three days of rituals, and finally burned the bones into ashes, put them into boxes, and when they returned to the army, they were enshrined in the Tang Loyal Soul Temple.
"Forced crossing is can be forcibly crossed, our army is in this position, the widest part of the river bank, but only 100 zhang, the narrowest point is only 70 or 80 zhang, so it is okay to force crossing, but, on the other side, Goguryeo's 200,000 army along the river up and down more than 100 miles, no matter where our army crosses from force, Goguryeo will inevitably know at the first time, whether the forced crossing can be smooth or not, it is still unknown, but the casualties will be large." Uncle Li Ji calmly analyzed.
A civilian official who accompanied the army also pretended to look at the sand table for a long time, nodded at the upper reaches of the sashui and said: "Otherwise, it is feasible for my army to cross from here?" ”
Uncle Cheng, who was in a bad mood, rolled his eyes: "If you want to send yourself to death, Lao Cheng will not accompany you." ”
"You!" The civil official was trembling with anger, and Li Daozong stepped out to persuade: "Don't be annoyed, my lord, General Cheng's words are a little dry, but this is the reason, the river in the upper reaches of the Sashui River is turbulent, the reefs are numerous, and there are many places to settle on both banks, so it is not a good place to cross the river, even if Goguryeo does not let go of a single soldier, the whole army will pass, I am afraid that it would be good if half of it could be left." ”
Everyone squatted in front of the sand table and frowned, and at this time, Pei Xingjian, a loser, jumped out and shouted: "Why don't we use the artillery regiment of the Military Academy to cover our crossing of the river?" Anyway, the artillery can reach up to two miles, which is more than enough. ”
Everyone looked happy, Uncle Li also looked at me, I first glared at Pei Xingjian hatefully, turned around, helplessly spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "The last general can not change the shells, this expedition, the general brought a total of 5,000 shells, now, there are only 500 left, that is to say, a cannon is five rounds of the sky, if it is said to be a siege of the city, and then capture ten fortified cities, the last general is sure, but if it is used to cover my army to cross the river, this must consider the coverage of artillery, The extended firing of artillery, the dense intensity of artillery...... "As soon as you open your mouth, General Ben can be regarded as the greatest, most talented, and most far-sighted theorist of artillery tactics of this era."
As my expression changed, the spittle flew sideways, and a group of veteran ruffians were stunned for a moment, and their eyes changed from the initial blankness to awe. I smashed my mouth, picked up the tea that was placed on the side, poured it down, and was about to talk about the theory of artillery and infantry working together, when Uncle Li cautiously asked me: "Virtuous son-in-law, what do you ......mean?"
"No! Unless I am given ten times as much ammunition, I will not be able to guarantee that there will be no danger when my army crosses the Sasui River, at least, 3,000 shells. "I set the benchmark, and no one knows the art of artillery covering troops better than me. As soon as these words came out, all the veterans looked at each other and stopped talking.
Uncle Li sighed lightly and sat down: "If I knew this was the case, if the old man had waited for another two months, it would have been good if he had enough shells before setting off." That's it, Zhu Aiqing is no longer worried, no matter how worried he is, he can't find a bridge that can cross Sashui, so let's order the three armies, cut down wood and make boats, while making preparations for forcibly crossing Sashui, and then Zhao Zhang Liang, the general manager of the Pingdao march, ask him, what his water army is doing to eat, so much, why don't you come to open the way for me. ”
A few days later, Zhang Liang, who was dressed in dust, the general manager of the march of the Datang Yangping Road and the president of the Tang Dynasty Army, now also rushed to the big tent of our army on the west bank of the Sashui River, pointing to the sand table and explaining to Uncle Li the difficulties of the Tang Dynasty Navy: "The Goguryeo army on the east bank of the Sashui River does not know how many organs have been laid to resist horses, and our army ships will be attacked by Goguryeo catapults and other objects when they reach the middle section, and the river channel here in the lower section is too narrow, about several miles long, and our warships will pass through this, and they will be severely damaged, and the enemy will be hit by the shore with warships, It's really a good move. ”
Uncle Li nodded: "You can't blame it, but is my army just stopping here, and letting Goguryeo children watch me on the other side of the river can't make jokes?!" Uncle Li's expression was very gloomy.
Hearing this, I couldn't help but think of the insidious work done by the Yankees in the historical time and space where I was at that time, when the Korean People's Army won successive victories in the early days of the Korean War, and in just a few months, the South Korean Defense Forces and the American Army were forced to retreat all the way to the area of the Nakdong River, which is far from Busan. At this time, the 25th Division of the US Army received an order to hold the southern defense line and was not allowed to retreat. The Korean People's Army has occupied 90 percent of the land and 92 percent of the population of the Korean Peninsula.
----------------------------------------------------, however, MacArthur, one of the sinister Yankees, jumped out to meet with other senior officers in Tokyo and persuaded them to carry out the risky Inchon landing plan. The retreat of the Korean People's Army, which was still fighting on the front line of the Nakdong River, was cut off. The Inchon landing was a near-gamble-like and risky landing operation under MacArthur's command, and it was miraculously successful. This landing operation not only affected the course and even the outcome of the entire Korean War, but from the perspective of military command, it also showed the ingenuity of the strategy of "winning by surprise."
My throat is itchy, I can't stand in place, we are honest people, I want to say everything that comes to my mind, and I can't hold back.
Uncle Li saw that I was rubbing my skin and rubbing it with a look of looking for a cigarette, and he couldn't help but puff out his eyes: "Fang Jun, what are you smoking crazy again?" In the military tent, how can you be rude? ”
Everyone turned their eyes to me, Su Dingfang and Pei Xingjian, who were standing on my left and right, hurriedly moved a few steps to the side, looking ashamed to be with me, schadenfreude on the side, angry, when was Lao Tzu rude, it was clear that he was in danger of the army, and he was crying and thinking of a strategy.
"The son-in-law didn't go crazy, he just thought of a way to break Goguryeo's method of defending Sashui." I whispered bitterly.
"The virtuous son-in-law is a young offspring, if there is a fart, let it go, such a small voice can't suffocate you!" Uncle Cheng, the old guy, couldn't help but poke his hair over and shouted.
Uncle Li Jing chuckled and said: "Okay, old horseman, roar very much, don't sprinkle it on young people if you are angry, if there is any clever plan for the beloved virtuous nephew, what does it matter if I wait to hear it, this kid can't do anything else, a bad boy in a belly, more than a few of us old people combined." ”
provoked a tent of wild laughter, I heard the sad words in my heart, this son is a good person, a righteous gentleman, polite, and literary, he is a model of a romantic scribe in the Tang Dynasty, but in the mouths of these old hooligans, he became so unbearable that he almost vomited blood in anger. I also have the Tang Dynasty military god, I'm afraid that he is just a veteran ruffian who has become a fine soldier, and I indignantly raised my admiring middle finger in my heart for this Tang Dynasty military god who made fun of me, a young and handsome man.
