Li Shan saw the generals quarreling endlessly. After watching with interest for a while, he got tired of it and simply went to the side room and called Kan Leng in.
"Your Highness." Kan Leng was from Jianghuai after all. He was self-aware and had no confidence to compete with his colleagues.
"Everyone has been selected?"
"We picked five hundred people, plus the bodyguards around our adoptive father, there are more than six hundred people in total." Kan Leng geared up, looking a little excited.
In his previous life, Li Shan was very interested in the famous Tang Dynasty Mo Dao. It is said to "break in through a wall, and the men and horses will be broken into pieces". It has infinite power.
But what surprised Li Shan was that during several battles in Shandong and Daizhou, he saw various types of arms, but he did not see the so-called Mo Dao Team.
The year before last, Li Gaoqian abandoned his army and fled, and Li Shan rushed to Yanmen Pass. Kan Leng stood outside the pass with a Mo Dao as tall as a person, resisting the Turkic cavalry and showing off his power. That was the first time Li Shan saw the Mo Dao.
Later, Li Shan specifically asked Kan Leng and found out that in fact, Modao is more commonly used in the Central Plains and even the Jianghuai region, and is not popular in the north. At that time, Kan Leng was in charge of military discipline in the Jianghuai Army and had a Modao team under his command.
Invincible, there is no opponent.
Li Shan considered that the main battlefield was not suitable for cavalry, so after summoning Kan Leng to join the army, he immediately ordered him to select strong men to form the Modao team, and he was lucky. Although the Modao was not popular in the north,
But there are still hundreds of weapons in stock.
"Six hundred is six hundred." Li Shan nodded, "The person holding the Mod Sword cannot use it unless he is tall and strong. What's more, the weapons supervisor has allocated less than a thousand Mod Swords."
Zhu nodded, but murmured in her heart, that's not what Ling Jing said, Da Lang's ability to cause trouble for no reason is too strong... maybe something will happen one day.
Qi Laosan's face collapsed, and he said with a sad face: "Lang Jun, last year the villain failed to catch up in the two battles in Guji Town and Cangtou River..."
Over there, Li Shan just called Qi Laosan in, and Li Daoxuan and Li Keshi crowded in and asked Li Shan to make the decision. Everyone wanted to rob Wang Junhao, Hou Hongtao, Qu Silang and other personal guards and commanders.
Li Qianyou was stunned. That was not what Li Shan said before, and he specifically told him to do it before it gets too cold.
"Don't worry, this battle is not very dangerous." Zhang said in a low voice: "Sister Changsun came to visit yesterday and mentioned that of all the wars in Huairen, this one was the safest."
"Mo Dao team remains in the Chinese army and will come in handy when the time comes." Li Shan warned: "Once we attack, we should do it as fast as thunder and don't hesitate."
Li Shan tried it several times. The Mo Dao has two blades. It is as tall as a person and weighs sixteen or seven kilograms. One kilogram in this era is about one kilogram and two taels in later generations. In other words, a Mo Dao weighs about twenty kilograms.
.
"It doesn't matter." Li Shan warned: "There is plenty of food and grass, and we are full every day. The injured can be diagnosed and treated, and there will be no chaos for the time being."
"Privately, it would be more pleasant to call me Huairen." Li Shanxian said after a few words: "You don't have to be too anxious to gather the civilians to build the camp..."
Li Shan drove Qi Laosan away, thinking back and forth in his mind, and settled down. Now everything is ready, all he needs is the east wind.
"Yes, Sister Changsun is also worried." Mrs. Zhang sighed: "But after this battle, Huairen should not go on another expedition. In the past few years, he has almost all won great victories in the north. He has been conferred the title of county king, and his achievements have been so great.
, it’s hard to be kind.”
Let Zhu Wei stay... Qi Laosan couldn't imagine it, so he could only accept it with a face.
In the plan, the main task of the left and right armies was to limit the intrusion of the Turks. What Li Shan valued most was the front army, the middle army and the cavalry brigade. For this reason, he packed Su Dingfang and Zhang Zhongjian into them and appointed them as generals. He also beat Duan Zhixuan. How could Feng Li send several of his trusted personal guard commanders to the left and right armies?
Li Shan glared at Li Daoxuan angrily, he was the one who was the most fierce in robbing, "Don't think about it, they will all join the front army."
"Let Zhou Lang stay." Qi Laosan whispered: "He has already been knighted."
"Uncle." Li Shan stood up with a smile and said hello, "Uncle, sit down first."
Kan Leng shouted loudly and happily went to find Wen Yanbo to mobilize the sergeants. He also called Chang'an Commander Li Qianyou in.
Cui Xin mentioned this matter today. According to the public opinion between the DPRK and China, this battle is difficult to win quickly. At least it will have to wait until the Turks return to the grassland in winter. But even so, it may not be easy to regain the three states. The Turks will probably not withdraw their entire army and will stay behind. Part of the troops helped Liang Division gain a foothold in the pass.
Li Qianyou, who was confused, retreated and turned around to find Wen Yanbo, who was also surprised, "Tujue and Liang divisions will plunder three states. The food and grass are not in danger for the time being. This battle will be protracted..."
"But it's difficult to win this battle quickly." Li Qianyou hesitated and said, "I'm just afraid that the sergeants in the army will be resentful."
Mrs. Zhu gave a wry smile and said, "Even if that's the case, how can you not worry?"
"It's only mid-September now." Mrs. Zhang calculated on her fingers, "I guess it will be difficult to return to Beijing this year. Next year... I don't know if I will miss the wedding date."
After sending everyone out, Li Shancai looked at Qi Laosan and said, "We won't be building a camp for the time being, but we need a lot of red bricks."
"Then let Uncle Qi stay?"
"You and Zhou Erlang lead twenty personal guards to stay and obey the orders of Xihe County Duke and Chang'an." Li Shan instructed: "Also pay attention to the livestock and carriages. Once they are needed, the red bricks must be delivered to the designated place quickly."
"Yes." Li Qianyou shook his head and said, "I don't know what the King of Handan thinks about it."
Li Qianyou sat down and said with a smile: "What are your orders, Your Highness?"
"yes."
The two began to discuss the allocation and transportation of grain and grass. Li Shan also specifically asked to supplement meat. Wen Yanbo also had a headache about this. It would be good if the average soldier could eat enough on weekdays, but he might not be able to eat twice a year. Meat, and with an army of tens of thousands, how many pressed pigs and sheep would it take to get a piece for each person?
"It's a very important matter. If something goes wrong, I'll see how I deal with you!"
Wen Yanbo thought for a while and then said: "On that day, Daizhou and his party saw that the King of Handan was thinking carefully... or he had other plans. Qianyou should act as ordered."
At this moment, in the Cui Mansion in Chang'an, Mrs. Zhu and her in-laws, Mrs. Zhang, were chatting. Cui Shiniang held her chin with her little hand, and her upper eyelids were fighting with her lower eyelids.
Li Shan also expressed his helplessness. Qi Laosan had always been responsible for making bricks, burning cement, and making horseshoes. That was why he stayed in Dai County last year. Although he was safe, he didn't get anything.
Without the help of horse power, if the infantry lifts such a heavy and long sword to kill the enemy, the power is naturally strong, but it also consumes a lot of physical strength. Ordinary soldiers really don't have this ability.
"Lay the foundation first, and try to mobilize civilian workers and craftsmen from various prefectures." Li Shan said softly: "But don't set up a stronghold quickly. It's mid-September and it's not too cold yet..."
"You and Zhou Erlang both want to stay." Li Shan snorted, "Don't want to?"
After losing Mayi, it was not easy to seize this stronghold and be able to block the Tang army south of Yuanzhou. The Turks would not give up easily.
"Who could have imagined..." Mrs. Zhu's teeth started to itch with Pei Shiju's hatred when she thought of this. She glanced at Eleven Niang who was dozing, and changed the subject: "Let Eleven Niang go back to sleep."
"She is very thoughtful. She insists on accompanying you, but she refuses to accompany me." Mrs. Zhang covered her mouth and said with a smile, "She also said that she would go to Dongshan Temple to pray for Huairen tomorrow."
"Da Lang has had a rough life, but he is also lucky."
