- "rumble!"
Amidst the thunderous sound of hooves, a long line of Tang troops advanced rapidly towards the west. This Tang army was the Tang army led by Xue Rengui. They set out from Chang'an and went straight to Hexi. They entered Tubo via Hexi and then entered Tianzhu from Tubo.
This army is composed of 30,000 Zuo Qianniu Guards and 30,000 Liaodong Army. They are all the elites among the elites. Zuo Qianniu Guards are the imperial guards guarding Chang'an. Everyone is a brave fighter, while the Liaodong Army is Everyone has fought against the Tunguska savages in the bitter cold land for many years, and everyone has had the experience of licking blood with the tip of a knife. Although there are only 60,000 people, the momentum gives people the pressure of millions of people.
There has been no major war in the Tang Dynasty for a long time. The sharp sword is hidden deep in the sheath. This has made every soldier of the Tang Dynasty impatient. Serving on the battlefield and making achievements is the dream of every man of the Tang Dynasty. Now it has finally become a reality. , the Tang Dynasty officially sent out troops, and everyone was extremely happy. Wherever the army passed by, the people must be happy and cheer loudly to welcome the arrival of the Tang army.
Amid the cheers of the people, the team advanced rapidly without any pause, let alone shouting, only the thunderous sound of hooves as they marched.
¡°What a majestic team!¡±
"It goes without saying that our soldiers of the Tang Dynasty are all elites. Those cannibals are just clowns. Once the heavenly soldiers arrive, they will be wiped out!"
"That's the Forbidden Army. Look, everyone has black feathers on their helmets. They're the Forbidden Army!"
"What are they holding in their hands? Why are they still wrapped in cloth!"
"Keep your voice down, it must be our Datang's secret weapon!"
"It would be great if the Duke of Song had commanded his troops. He would have killed those big cannibals crying for their fathers and mothers. During the Yonghui period, the big cannibals invaded the Western Regions, but in the end they were beaten back by the Duke of Song and lost Central Asia!"
"Don't talk nonsense. Marshal Xue is also extraordinary. He is Song Guogong's sister-in-law. He fought against the Tunguska barbarians in Liaodong for years. Even Song Guogong relies heavily on him. He must be the same!"
The people pointed at the rapidly advancing team and talked a lot.
Xue Rengui was riding on a horse, sizing up the marching team. He was very satisfied when he saw that all the soldiers held their heads high, their morale was high, their fighting spirit was fierce.
So what if the army doesn't go to war? Every one of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty is an elite among the elite. In times of peace, they guard the place and protect the safety of the Tang Dynasty. In times of war, they will all be transformed into the sharpest swords. Anyone who dares to Any enemy standing in front of them will be torn into pieces without mercy.
What¡¯s more, the opponent they have to face this time is Dashi.
It has been decades since the war between Datang and Dashi. During these decades, Datang and Dashi had a life-and-death confrontation in diplomacy, military, and economy. In the end, Du Rui defeated Dashi in a battle. Heavy damage, loss of land.
But before that great victory, there was another tragic defeat. More than 100,000 soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were buried in the green hills. This hatred has been passed down.
Great food!
?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? anytime, ???????????? Commanders are the sworn enemies of the Tang Dynasty.
Xue Rengui failed to catch up with the last battle, which made him regretful. Fortunately, this time it was finally his turn. How could he not be excited and excited?
Nothing is more satisfying than killing enemies with your hands.
Not only him, but as a man of the Tang Dynasty who participated in this battle, the soldiers were even more happy. Although the Tang Dynasty won the original war, it failed to completely wipe out Dashi. This made the soldiers regretful and had been looking forward to it for a long time. One more battle with Dashi will completely rule the world. Therefore, it doesn't matter if they don't have high morale.
Revenge!
The defeat at Congling buried hatred deeply in the hearts of every Tang Army soldier. Now the time for revenge has come.
Du Xuewen, Xue Ne, Du Yaozu, Du Yashe and other young generals gathered around Xue Rengui, their eyes shining brightly and they were extremely excited.
These people are the leaders of the younger generation in the Tang Army. They all grew up listening to the glorious achievements of their fathers, especially Du Xuewen. Having a father like Du Rui is an honor and a pressure. , he was eager to break the halo Du Rui had on him and achieve fame with one knife and one shot.
Everyone said that a tiger father has no sons, but Du Rui, the tiger father, set a benchmark for Du Xuewen that was almost difficult to surpass. Du Xuewen came from a famous family and was the son of Du Rui, the military god of the Tang Dynasty. Everyone had too many demands on him. Taller.
From the time he was a child until now, what Du Xuewen has heard most is: "Don't let your father's reputation be ruined!"
"A tiger father has no dog sons, and a tiger father has no dog sons, but there are too many precedents in history of tiger fathers and dog sons, and the arrogant Du Xuewen naturally does not want to seriously become that dog son.
? ?Zhao She, a famous general from the time of the Republic of China, is recorded in history books: Zhao She was also an official in the Tian tribe of Zhao. They collected rent taxes but Pingyuan Jun's family refused to rent, so they tried to rule them by law and killed nine of Pingyuan Jun's servants. Lord Pingyuan is angry and will kill Sheshe. Sheyin said: "You are a noble son of Zhao. If you indulge your family and do not serve the public, then the law will be weakened. If the law is weakened, the country will be weak. If the country is weak, the princes will increase their troops. If the princes add troops, there will be no Zhao. How can you be so wealthy?" ? Because of the nobleness of the king, serving the public is like a law. If the top and bottom are equal, the country will be strong. If the country is strong, the country will be strong. And the king is a noble relative, how can he be less responsible for the evil in the world? "Pingyuan Jun thought he was virtuous and spoke to the king. The king uses it to govern the country, and the country's wealth is great. The people are rich and the treasury is solid.
Qin attacked Han, and the army came to Yan. The king called Lian Po and asked, "Can he be saved?" He replied, "The road is far, dangerous and narrow, and it is difficult to save him." He also called Le Cheng and asked, and Le Cheng said to Lian Po. He also summoned Zhao She and asked, and She replied, "The road is long, dangerous and narrow, just like two rats in a hole. The brave one will win." The king then ordered General Zhao She to rescue him.
The soldiers marched thirty miles to Handan, and ordered the army to say: "Anyone who gives military advice will die." The Qin army marched to the west of Wu'an. Someone in the army asked Wu An to come to his aid, and Zhao Sheli beheaded him. If the wall is strong and cannot be left for twenty-eight days, it will be strengthened and strengthened. When Qin came, Zhao She was good at food and sent him away. Zhao She reported to the general of Qin, who was overjoyed and said: "I have been to the country for thirty miles and the army can't move, so I have to build more bases. The land is not Zhao's." Zhao She had already sent Qin to the country, rolled up his armor and rushed towards him, and the next two days One night came, and those who were good at shooting went to Yan and marched fifty miles away.
The army base was completed, and when the Qin people heard about it, they came to know it. Sergeant Xu Li asked for military advice, Zhao She said: "It's within." Xu Li said: "The people of Qin didn't expect Zhao Shi to be here. He came with great power, so the general must gather his troops to wait for him. Otherwise, he will be defeated." Zhao She said: "Please accept the order." Xu Li said: "Please punish Zhi Zhi." Zhao She said: "Xu Hou ordered Handan." Xu Li asked for advice again and said: "The one who captures Beishan first will win, and the one who comes later will lose. ." Zhao She promised and sent tens of thousands of people to flock to him. The Qin soldiers arrived later and were unable to climb the mountain. Zhao She sent his troops to attack them and defeated the Qin army. The Qin army broke up and left, then broke up and surrounded it and returned.
King Zhao Huiwen gave She She the title of Ma Fujun and Xu Li as the State Lieutenant. Zhao She then took the same position as Lian Po and Lin Xiang.
Zhao She has rich military ideas. Judging from the strategic tactics of "telling the enemy not to be defeated, showing the enemy that they can't do it", "being able to take orders for the enemy", "mainly opposing the guest", and "being condescending" in the battle between Yan and Yu, it is obvious that he absorbed the military thoughts of Sun Wu and Sun Bin. Judging from the discussions he had with Tian Dan on the art of war during the 30th year of King Huiwen of Zhao's reign, he attached great importance to the study of war situations and characteristics, and finally convinced Tian Dan and said: "Tian Dan will not come."
Zhao She was so famous that people naturally had high hopes for his son Zhao Kuo, not for anything else but because he was Zhao She's son.
King Zhao Huiwen died, and Prince Xiaocheng came to the throne. In the seventh year of King Xiaocheng's reign, the Qin army and the Zhao army faced each other in Changping. Zhao She was dead and Lin Xiangru was critically ill at that time. King Zhao sent Lian Po to lead his troops to attack the Qin army. The Qin army defeated the Zhao army several times, but the Zhao army held fast. The camp does not go out to fight. The Qin army repeatedly challenged Lian Po, but Lian Po ignored it.
King Zhao believed the rumors spread by spies of the Qin army. The spies of the Qin army said: "What the Qin army hates and taboos is that they are afraid that Zhao Kuo, the son of Ma Fujun Zhao She, will become a general."
Therefore, the King of Zhao appointed Zhao Kuo as his general, replacing Lian Po. Lin Xiangru said: "Your Majesty, appointing Zhao Kuo based solely on his reputation is like using glue to stick the tuning posts to a string and then trying to play the harp. Zhao Kuo only knows how to use it." He can read the books left by his father, but he doesn't know how to be flexible." King Zhao didn't listen and ordered Zhao Kuo to be his general.
Zhao Kuo has been studying the art of war and talking about military affairs since he was a child, thinking that no one in the world can match him. He once discussed the use of troops with his father Zhao She. Zhao She couldn't help him, but he didn't say he was good. Zhao Kuo's mother asked Zhao She why this was happening. Zhao She said: "Waging a war is a matter of life and death, but he made it so easy. It would be fine if Zhao Kuo did not use Zhao Kuo as a general. Let him be the general, and he will definitely be the one who caused the Zhao army to fail."
When Zhao Kuo was about to leave, his mother wrote to King Zhao saying: "Zhao Kuo cannot make him a general."
King Zhao said: "Why?"
Zhao's mother replied: "When I served his father, he was a general at that time. He personally served and served tens of people with food and drink, and hundreds of people were treated as friends by him. Things were rewarded by the king and the royal family. All were distributed to the military officials and staff. From the day he accepted the order, he no longer interfered with family affairs. Now that Zhao Kuo had become a general, he faced east to accept the audience. None of the military officials dared to look up at him. The king rewarded him with gold and silk. , brought them all home and kept them, and visited cheap and suitable land and real estate every day, and bought whatever was available. How does the king think he is like his father? The father and son have different hearts, and I hope the king will not send him to lead the army. "
King Zhao said: "Just put this matter aside. I have already decided."
Zhao Kuo's mother then said: "You must send him to lead the army. If he is incompetent, can I not be implicated?" King Zhao agreed.
After Zhao Kuo replaced Lian Po,All the original rules and regulations were changed, and the original military officials were also replaced. When Qin general Bai Qi heard about this, he dispatched a surprise force, pretended to be defeated and fled, then cut off the Zhao army's food transport road, split the Zhao army in half, and separated the Zhao soldiers. After more than forty days, the Zhao army was hungry. Zhao Kuo sent out elite soldiers to fight the Qin army personally. The Qin army shot Zhao Kuo to death. Zhao Kuo's army was defeated, and hundreds of thousands of troops surrendered to the Qin army. The Qin army buried them all alive. Zhao Guo lost a total of 450,000 people before and after. The next year, the Qin army surrounded Handan. For more than a year, Zhao could hardly survive. It was only through the rescue of the Chu and Wei troops that the siege of Handan was lifted.
As the son of Zhao She, Zhao Kuo left nothing behind except a "paper talk". What is he if he is not a dog?
There are also the more famous tiger father and son, Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty, Sima Yan and Emperor Hui of Jin Dynasty, Sima Zhong. Emperor Wu of Jin Dynasty was the founding monarch of the Jin Dynasty. He succeeded his father as the king of Jin Dynasty. A few months later, he forced Emperor Yuan of Wei Cao Huan to give up the title of the country to himself. Jin established its capital in Luoyang. Later, he ordered Du Yu, Wang Jun and others to divide their troops to attack Wu, and the following year they destroyed Wu and unified the country. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, a series of economic measures were taken to develop production. In the first year of Taikang, the household adjustment system was enacted, including the land occupation system, the household adjustment system and the Pinguan Tianyinke system. During the Taikang period, there was a prosperous scene, which was known as the "Taikang rule" in history. Emperor Wu of the Jin Dynasty's literary and martial arts skills were so remarkable.
But what about Sima Zhong, Emperor Hui of Jin Dynasty? He was demented and inactive. At first, he was assisted by Taifu Yang Jun. Later, Queen Jia Nanfeng killed Yang Jun and took over the power. During the Eight Kings Rebellion, Emperor Hui's uncle, King Sima Lun of Zhao, usurped Emperor Hui's throne and made Emperor Hui the Supreme Emperor, imprisoned in Jinyong City. King Sima Jiong of Qi and King Sima Ying of Chengdu rebelled against Sima Lun. The ministers conspired to murder Sima Lun's party members, welcomed the restoration of Emperor Hui of Jin, and executed Sima Lun and his son. He was held hostage by various kings, treated like a puppet, and subjected to all kinds of humiliation. Later, Sima Yue, King of the East China Sea, welcomed him back to Luoyang. When Emperor Hui died, it was said that he was poisoned by Sima Yue.
??Further forward, there are Qin Shihuang and Qin II. Qin Shihuang swept through the six countries, unified China, and achieved eternal fame, but what about his son Hu Hai?
Before Hu Hai ascended the throne, he killed his eldest brother Fusu. Hu Hai, together with Zhao Gao and Li Si, forged an edict and sent it to Fusu and Mengtian who were guarding the northern border. The forged edict reprimanded Fusu and Mengtian for guarding the border for more than ten years. Not only did they not make any military exploits, but they repeatedly wrote letters to criticize the government. Fusu was even more resentful and resentful that he could not return to the capital to become the crown prince, so he gave Fusu a sword and committed suicide.
After becoming emperor, he became even more cruel and inhumane to many other brothers and sisters. The most cruel thing about Hu Hai's massacre of his brothers was the execution of twelve brothers in Xianyang City. Another time in Duyou, six brothers and ten sisters were crushed to death. The execution ground was horrific. Jiang Lu and the other three were also brothers of Hu Hai, and they were eventually forced to commit suicide. The three of them were calmer than the other brothers. Hu Hai couldn't find any crime to frame him, so he was locked up in the palace. After many other brothers were killed, Zhao Gao sent people to force them to commit suicide.
In addition to his brothers and sisters, Hu Hai also did not let go of other disobedient civil and military ministers. The first to be persecuted were the Meng Tian brothers. At first Hu Hai wanted to continue using the two brothers, but Zhao Gao was afraid that they would pose a threat to him, so he spread rumors to Hu Hai that Qin Shihuang had originally wanted to make Hu Hai the crown prince, but Meng Tian's brother Meng Yi tried his best to stop it. , Qin Shihuang gave up the idea of ??making him the prince. Hu Hai believed it to be true. Not only did he not release Meng Tian, ??he also imprisoned Meng Yi in Daijun's prison. Later, Hu Hai sent an envoy to force Meng Yi to commit suicide, and then sent envoys to Yangzhou's prison to force Meng Tian to commit suicide. Meng Tian refused at first, claiming that he wanted to see Hu Hai and ask him to withdraw the edict, but the envoy refused. Seeing that there was no hope of survival, Meng Tian had no choice but to Committed suicide by taking poison.
Regarding other ministers, Hu Hai, instigated by Zhao Gao, also went on a killing spree. Right Prime Minister Feng Quji and General Feng Jie chose to commit suicide in order to avoid being humiliated.
He was also extremely harsh on the people. He recruited a large number of farmers from all over the country to build Afang Palace and Lishan Cemetery, and sent 50,000 soldiers to guard Xianyang, the capital. At the same time, he asked various places to supply grain and grass to Xianyang, and prohibited people transporting grain and grass from eating Xianyang on the road. You must bring your own food within three hundred miles. In addition to year-round unpaid labor, farmers' tax burden also increased day by day, which eventually led to the outbreak of the Chen Sheng and Wu Guang Uprising.
Du Xuewen didn't want to become a negative example of a tiger father and a dog son in the history books in the future, so he had always been extremely strict with himself since he joined the army. This time, going out to eat food was a grand event, not to mention personally participating, just listening to it and letting people know it. With excitement and enthusiasm, participating in this battle must be the greatest honor in life for Du Xuewen. Du Xuewen originally thought that his mother, Princess Ankang, would definitely block his expedition. He originally thought that he had no chance of this battle. What he didn't expect was that Ankang The princess was actually very supportive, which was a great joy to him, and he couldn't be happy even if he didn't.
This time Du Xuewen wants to prove to everyone that Du Rui's son is also a good man. Du Rui can be invincible on the battlefield, and so can Du Xuewen.
??"When will Anxi's troops arrive?"
A total of 150,000 people were mobilized for this expedition, including 30,000 Forbidden Army, 30,000 Liaodong Army, 30,000 Anxi Army, 30,000 Central and Southern Army, and 30,000 Tianzhu Army.
The Zhongnan Army and the Tianzhu Army will be waiting to join the main army on Tianzhu Road, while the Anxi Army will join in halfway.
¡°Don¡¯t worry, Marshal, we¡¯ll be here soon. We won¡¯t miss the Marshal¡¯s departure date!¡±
"That's good."
Under the leadership of Xue Rengui, the soldiers hurried on their way, galloping all the way, and soon reached the land of Hexi. Still a hundred miles away from Longxi, there were 30,000 Anxi troops waiting here.
All he saw was a sea of ??flags, countless flags fluttering in the wind. As they got closer, Xue Rengui felt an obvious chill.
"The flag is strict, and you are worthy of being the world-famous elite of Anxi!" Du Rui saw it, his eyes shone brightly, and he was greatly appreciated.
The Anxi Army was all trained by Xi Junmai. Everyone is tall and extremely capable. Even compared to the Forbidden Army, they are not much inferior. From Xue Rengui's point of view, he can tell at a glance that the Anxi Army is an elite soldier who trains day and night. Otherwise, he would not have such momentum. What is even more rare is that every soldier of the Anxi Army has a murderous aura. Zhi crawled out from the mountain of corpses and the sea of ??blood, and had killed many people.
A truly outstanding army is not an army that dominates on the training ground. That kind of army is just a look-alike no matter how neat its appearance is. A truly elite army must be able to roam the battlefield and be tempered in mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Worthy of this title.
The Tang Dynasty was peaceful and there were few wars, but the Western Region was different. There were many small tribes in this place, and not everyone was willing to accept the rule of the Tang Dynasty. Unrest would occur from time to time, which also provided the Anxi Army with an opportunity to train troops. , so at first glance, everyone in the Anxi Army has a bloody air on their bodies.
The Anxi army's helmets were bright and their formations were neat. Although they were marching, there was no chaos at all. Driving in front of Xue Rengui, they began to line up again, in an orderly manner, without any chaos, their movements were extremely fast, and they had their own rules, and they quickly formed a formation. Once the formation is completed, it forms horizontal rows and vertical columns, like a copper wall and an iron wall, giving people a sense of being unshakable.
"As expected of the elite! This formation is not much worse than the Forbidden Army." All the generals also praised in unison.
Sweeping the world and swallowing all the wastes was Taizong's unfulfilled wish, and it has always been the dream of the Tang people. However, in the past few years, there has been no movement from the imperial court. This made everyone in the Tang army anxious. Now it is finally over. It's time to send out a large number of troops, and the soldiers can't wait for a long time.
"Su Xiang, the last general, has met the commander-in-chief!" The Anxi Army was also commanded by a young general.
Xue Rengui looked at him and saw that he was tall and unattractive. He was the kind of person who would not be noticed even if he was thrown into a crowd. However, there was an aura of vigor and vigor about him that was shocking. His forehead is very broad, his face is big, his eyebrows are thick and black, and his eyes are very big. When he turns, he shines brightly, like the stars at night, and he is extremely energetic.
"What a fierce general!" Xue Rengui secretly praised.
Xue Rengui nodded with satisfaction, and then started asking questions. What he was most concerned about now was the military situation: "How is the situation of the soldiers?"
"Don't worry, Commander, the situation of the soldiers is very good. We are stationed in the Western Region and have been preparing to defeat the feast all day long. When we learned that the imperial court was going to send troops to feast, the soldiers were howling all day long, looking forward to the stars and the moon. , I hope that as soon as the commander arrives, we will set off and kill all the big food dogs! As long as the commander gives the order, we can go out and there will be no delay. "
Xue Rengui nodded slightly and said: "That's good! General Su! I want your department to be the vanguard. I wonder if you dare to take on this important task!"
When Su Xiang heard this, he was stunned for a moment. Happiness came so suddenly that he couldn't react for a moment. He originally thought that his deployment could serve as a rear guard and guard food and grass, which would be good. As long as he could participate in this battle , they were satisfied. Good things like the vanguard would definitely not be their turn, but now Xue Rengui actually said that his troops would be the vanguard. When Su Xiang realized what he was doing, he was immediately overjoyed.
"Thank you, Marshal. Don't worry, Marshal. We men from Anxi have nothing to fear. Since the Marshal thinks highly of our Anxi garrison, we shall serve you!"
Xue Rengui nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay! This is what I want from you!"
Su Xiang said again: "Commander! Do you want to rest today?"
Xue Rengui said: "The military situation is like a raging fire, so why rest and recuperate? The food is rampant and they are attacking our friendly country of the Tang Dynasty. We cannot delay for a moment!"
Xue Rengui said, and glanced at Pienaar. This time, Pienaar urged to go with the army, but Du Rui couldn't resist him, so he had to agree.
? ?Hearing this, Nal's face suddenly turned red. These days, he had been urging Xue Rengui to speed up his march.
When Su Xiang heard this, he didn't say much. He raised his hands to Xue Rengui, greeted the 30,000 Anxi troops under his command, and took the lead in setting off. The earth-shattering sound of hoofbeats sounded, like muffled thunder, with extraordinary momentum and extremely shocking.
"Not bad!" Xue Rengui is an expert. When he heard this voice, he knew that the Anxi Army was indeed extraordinary, and he couldn't help but admire it.
Du Xuewen on the side also praised: "The Anxi Army is really extraordinary!"
Xue Rengui said with a smile: "Every one of our soldiers in the Tang Dynasty is an elite, and they are nothing more than clowns. When the heavenly soldiers arrive, they will be wiped out."
"I will not return to the court until I break the feast!"
All the soldiers shouted in unison, the momentum was overwhelming. - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
