Chapter 72: Faith
The shortest plank determines how much water a barrel can make.
And Zhang Xiao's weakest point, that is, his heart, is finally not a factor limiting Zhang Xiao's strength.
This promotion is undoubtedly a qualitative leap for Zhang Xiao.
Zhang Xiao's comprehension of the heart is called Mirror Flower Water Moon.
It refers to being able to condense one's own memories into an "illusory personality" with spirit, and then one can hide behind this spirit and watch one's every move like an outsider.
Zhang Xiao tried this mental method.
As a result, Zhang Xiao's temperament changed instantly, as if he had become a handsome son, indescribably dignified and chic.
Then Zhang Xiao seemed to have become a young man with strong blood, his blood was not cold, and he scolded Fang Xuan.
Then he seemed to become a dying old man, sad and lamenting.
By the time Zhang Xiao had completely mastered this mental method, the moon was already hanging high.
If they don't go back, it is estimated that Bi Tai and the others should be in a hurry, after all, what Zhang Xiao is doing now can be said to be not doing his job.
Zhang Xiao opened the mechanism of the treasure house and returned to Yang Gong's treasure house.
This time I came back, and my mood was different.
Not to mention anything else, Zhang Xiao is full of confidence that he can break through Chang'an City.
After removing the foreign situation and carefully thinking about the combat effectiveness of the two sides, Zhang Xi had already determined that this time there was at least a seven-layer chance of victory.
Indeed, the defenders of Chang'an City were indeed the most elite soldiers and the best generals of the Sui Dynasty.
But what's wrong with my side?
Indeed, Zhang Xiao's guards did not have much actual combat experience, and in terms of personal bravery, there was no way to compare with the soldiers of the Sui Dynasty.
But in addition to actual combat experience, the Guards were far superior to the soldiers of the Sui Dynasty in other aspects.
In terms of weapons, Zhang Xiao's weapons are all high-end goods from Yang Gong's treasure house.
In terms of the military system, Zhang Xiao's guards followed the Tang system.
Ten people are one tithe, five tithes are a gang, three gangs are a team, five teams are a battalion, and five battalions are an army.
Zhang Xiao has four armies, each of which is led by himself, and Shan Xiongxin, Zhang Liang, and Wang Junkuo each lead the first army.
However, the army led by Zhang Xiao was actually led by Shen Luoyan, and he was just a name.
If nothing else, there is no other place in the world in terms of high-level officers, and if it weren't for the fact that a few of them didn't know their future achievements, they would definitely rebel.
After all, whether it is Shan Xiongxin, Zhang Liang or Wang Junkuo, they are all excellent generals with handsome talents, and their military talents are definitely not worse than those of the Yin Shishi, and they may even be half a step higher.
If it weren't for Bai Wenyuan being the first general to defect to Zhang Xiao (Zhao Jintong's stupid guy doesn't count), plus Zhang Xiao's selfishness, otherwise the commander of the coalition would not have been Bai Wenyuan's turn at all.
In terms of training, Zhang Xiaona directly copied the military training in his previous life, and then carried out eight hours of high-intensity training every day, walking staggering every day, not only the flesh and blood on the soles of his feet were blurred, but the whole person was so tired that he was almost out of shape. With a gentle push of your hand, you can collapse to the ground like mud. If it weren't for the fact that the food provided by Zhang Xiao was too good, and their training was a little numb, otherwise they would really rebel.
In terms of food, Zhang Xiao not only gave up the food supply, but even bought all the pigs and cattle in Luoning County, and then guaranteed that there was meat for a meal as if he was "mad".
Although each person only has a supply of two or three taels a day, they can eat it all in one bite. Some people who are born with a hard life have grown so big that they haven't even drunk broth.
This kind of food supply made Bi Tai a little bitter, if it weren't for Zhang Xiao's later appearance of Yang Gong's treasure house and getting the gold inside, his originally very fragile finances would have gone bankrupt long ago.
If it is a siege battle, Zhang Xiao will indeed not be able to take Chang'an City, but if it is a battle in the city, Zhang Xiao will undoubtedly win.
Although it may be a tough battle, the final winner must be yourself.
The reason why I was worried before was simply because Zhang Xiaoguang was blinded by the terrible proportion of casualties.
After confirming this, Zhang Xiao's eyes contained a smile.
What Zhang Xiao didn't know was that seeing Zhang Xiao smiling and as if he was holding the victory, those soldiers breathed a sigh of relief one by one as if they had put down a thousand catties of boulders.
Zhang Xiao didn't know that his somewhat sad appearance made the soldiers under his command already a little unstable.
Zhang Xiao is not ignorant of the art of war, but talking about war on paper and reality are always two different things.
Generally speaking, unless the real peerless generals can manipulate the battlefield like a chessboard, war is the most boring and boring thing in the world.
Even if it is summed up, it can be described in one sentence.
Husband war, courage also.
The war is fought with a spirit of blood and bravery, and when the strength of the two sides is equal, whoever can hold out to the end will win the final victory.
In the blink of an eye, it was already three o'clock, and the sky was already a little bright.
Zhang Xiao actually hoped to do it earlier and have a night attack.
It's a pity that this approach is really unrealistic, because Zhang Xiao's subordinates all have night blindness, and they are not much different from blind people in the dark night.
Although Zhang Xiao has tried his best to improve his diet and add some animal livers to their food, he also needs a little buffer time to cure night blindness.
Therefore, Zhang Xiao could only choose to attack at this time.
And Zhang Xiao's target is nothing else, it is this famous Xuanwu Gate.
If you take the Xuanwu Gate, then Chang'an City will win almost half.
The reason why Zhang Xiao chose Xuanwu Gate as the target of the attack was not too purposeful, after all, there was not only this passage to enter the Chang'an Palace.
Zhang Xiao chose the Xuanwu Gate simply because this gate was closest to this entrance to Yang Gong's treasure.
Zhang Xiao was the first to drill out of the exit of the secret passage, and then Xiong Kuohai.
The exit is a somewhat vacant yard, no one, very secluded.
But soon the somewhat empty yard was stuffed to the brim.
There are a total of five hundred spirit 02 people in the entire courtyard, that is, Zhang Xiao, Xiong Kuohai, plus Zhang Xiao's five hundred personal soldiers.
Although Zhang Xiao's soldiers usually have the content of walking in unison, because these soldiers walk very neatly and quickly. But the problem is that Zhang Xiao brought a lot of people and horses, and the export is not large, so it naturally takes a little time.
And Zhang Xiao's task is to "clean up".
The goal soon emerged.
Soon, a group of patrolling soldiers came over, and when they saw a large number of soldiers and horses emerging from behind Zhang Xiao, they were taken aback, and then suddenly woke up, turned around and ran.
After Zhang Xiao saw it, he jumped up, and then slashed over with a knife.
Then there were three or four more heads on the ground, and a lot of blood was shed.
The end was already predestined
These patrolling soldiers are only a team, fifty people, this kind of ordinary Cheng dรน soldiers, even if it is only Zhang Xiao alone, can kill them all with a little more effort.
What's more, Zhang Xiao still has a full five hundred terrifying pro-soldiers behind him.
If it is said that the Guards are Zhang Xiao's descendants, the 5,000 Guards led by himself are the descendants of the descendants, and the 500 pro-soldiers around him can be called Zhang Xiao's henchmen.
