"Don't be surprised, young general, how can a cavalry that is not self-sufficient be called a cavalry? Think about it, they have to fight on the plateau, in the desert, on the grassland, in the vastness
Running on the land, speed is their favorite, what is their biggest obstacle at this time?"
"supply."
You are right, my young general and the noble warrior are passing through the grassland like the wind. Under the horses' hooves are the flowers that can be picked up. Not far away is the enemy they want to conquer. At this time, they are hungry. When they look back, they find
The people carrying the food are still ten miles away, what should we do? Look at them."
Tian Yuanyi pointed to the cavalryman who was milking the horse and said to Chen Shu and Guo Ping.
When a cavalryman saw someone on the platform looking at him, he raised the freshly squeezed mare's milk and shook it at the three people on the platform. Then he added a little flour to the mare's milk, stirred it, and drank it all in one gulp.
As Tian Yuanyi walked, he explained the self-sufficiency of the cavalry to the two young men: "Each of them has two mares. Do you know that a horse can squeeze out three or four kilograms of milk a day? The milk from two horses can be made simply."
The cheese can satisfy most of their needs, not to mention the very dry butter fried noodles on horseback. These fried noodles also contain tea powder, so eating them for five consecutive months is disgusting, but
It doesn't do any harm to their bodies.
The war horses provided them with food and water, and what the war horses needed was green grass all over the ground, and maybe a little beans." As he spoke, he picked two cucumbers from a basket next to them and handed them to the two who were already stunned.
young people.
Because they saw many sergeants milking the camels, and some sergeants were collecting the dried milk and putting it into large wooden boxes. The edges of the large wooden lattice were covered with baskets, and each basket was full of lush greenery.
Vegetables." Even if food can solve the problem, what about weapons? Gunpowder can be used very quickly. If we always have sufficient weapons when defending the city, it is impossible for the Anxi Army to be completely annihilated.
"Guo Ping looked at everything in front of him with some anger. This camel city is too luxurious, more like a garden than a military city." We have a weapons workshop and gunpowder is usually stored according to raw materials. When it comes to war,
Whenever we use it, we can make it at will. As long as we have enough raw materials, we will never be short of gunpowder. "Why doesn't the Anxi Army have it?" Chen Shu and Guo Ping roared at once.
Tian Yuanyi spread his hands and said: "There is no way. Guo Shuai is an ordinary marquis. His status is not enough for the Anxi Army to own a gunpowder workshop. You also know that the manufacturing of gunpowder has always been the top secret of the empire. I can't take you to see it."
, we’d better not provoke Wuli Sima. You are warriors who have fought a hundred battles. For the sake of Guo Shuai, the commander-in-chief allows me to take you to visit these confidential parts. Don’t talk nonsense when you go out. Just know it for yourself, so as not to
The Water Supervisor has nothing to do but cause trouble for you."
"Shuai Yun deliberately put himself in a critical situation, just to attract all the enemies, and then use Tuocheng's big grinder to grind them all into a pulp?" Guo Ping seemed to know something.
Tian Yuanyi said with a smile: "Everyone in this camel city is under my jurisdiction, so I know exactly how powerful this city is. Now, we are in Yematan, and there are people everywhere here."
It is gravel, but there is also grass everywhere. The gravel is a natural barrier for horses, but for camels, this kind of ground is the best smooth road.
I don’t understand the military affairs. That is the matter of the military affairs Sima. My duty today is to let you eat your two eggs and a bowl of camel milk with peace of mind. Only by drinking more can you get better and pick up weapons to kill the enemy again.
."
Returning to his wooden house, Chen Shu took a bite of cucumber and said to Guo Ping: "You still can't tell, but I did it on purpose. I deliberately stuffed myself into the wolf's mouth so that I could attract all the wolves in the Western Regions."
Come here, this will be equivalent to blocking all the enemies here, so that you can wait for the army in the pass to come and trample all these wolves to death, and the war in the Western Region will be over."
"I understand. I just feel that my father and the others died unjustly. As long as we retreated, we could kill everyone under the protection of Tuocheng, but my father chose to defend and buy time for the rest of the army.
The old man never imagined that his persistence was of little significance. Dad, you died so unjustly."
Before he finished speaking, he received a heavy slap on the face. Du Ruhui looked down at the crying Guo Ping and said: "Who said your father's death was meaningless? Who told you that your father's death was in vain?
Three months ago, Tuocheng could only walk short distances and would fall over at every turn. Everything was not ready. During these three months without war, Tuocheng made countless modifications to become what it is today.
Brilliant, this Tuocheng was not so much built by Marquis Yun and others as it was your father and 20,000 soldiers who built Tuocheng. The reason why Marquis Yun did not leave Qiuci immediately but chose the battlefield here is to comfort you.
My father is a hero in heaven. If you dare to say such unconscionable words again, be careful, I! You will die @!"!
After Du Ruhui left, Chen Shu dared to help Guo Ping, who was bleeding from the corner of his mouth, up. The two sat side by side on the platform, looking at the busy sergeant, and suddenly felt that this camel city had become closer to him.
Yun Ye calmly confronted the Tibetan people and the Turkic coalition forces, but the pot was already boiling at the court. The Hong Ling envoy who rushed eight hundred miles away sent the news of Guo Xiaoke's entire army to Chang'an, and immediately spread the news.
When Yun Ye's army came out, they were also trapped and killed in Yematan by the Turks and Tubo people. The situation of 40,000 people surrounded by an army of more than 400,000 was even worse than that of Guo Xiaoke.
The world was shocked! Since Li Er ascended the throne, no such high-level general had died in battle, nor had all the established troops been wiped out. Guo Xiaoke's death made the people of the Tang Dynasty feel the cruelty of war for the first time.
Now, Yun Ye's army is once again trapped in a tight siege in order to block the Turks and Tibetans outside the Yumen Pass. This news hangs over everyone's heads like a dark cloud. "What's going on with Tuocheng? Du Ruhui's role in Yun Ye's army
The matter must be sealed and must not be leaked!" Li Er walked anxiously around the main hall of Wanmin Palace. The sun in Chang'an in July was blazing, but Li Er himself could not feel the slightest bit of heat. His whole heart seemed to be burned by the Western Regions.
The battle report was frozen into lumps of ice.
It was all caused by that military order, to keep powerful enemies out of the country. This order was not written in any military order, but the generals of the Tang Dynasty were resolutely executing it. Guo Xiaoke died in Kucha City for this order.
Only two of the 20,000 men under his command survived. Yun Ye voluntarily fell into a tight siege for this order. Zhang Jian was undergoing crazy attacks from Silla and Baekje for this order. Cheng Bi defended Chaoyang Ridge for this order. The two
All the two sons died in the battle without taking a step back. As for the Lingnan Navy, they had already crossed the strait and were heading towards the Dashi Sea in a mighty manner, preparing for the cruelest revenge.
There are so many generals who obey their orders carefully. Li Er felt extremely proud at one moment, and felt extremely sad at the next. For a general, having no choice is the most terrifying thing. Guo Xiaoke has fallen, Yun Ye
The straightforward memorial was laid out on the dragon case. Li Er shed tears every time he read it. The most touching words in the world are nothing more than truth." When I saw Guo Xiaoke, there were only three or two incompletely burned corpses left.
The rest of the ashes that had been burned had been blown away by the wind. The most tragic one was Zhang Tingyue. When asked by Chen Shu, the school captain who survived by chance, he said that Zhang Tingyue was still on fire and still wielding the sword and kept fighting. After the battle, I personally stepped on the city wall and saw that Zhang Tingyue had already died.
It was charred, but the seal letter in his mouth was still there, and it was still warm when I took it out from his mouth. Han Huang was hit by countless arrows, and when the sergeant wiped him into the hall, half of the arrows that were gouged out of his body were
fight……"
Changsun read Yun Ye's memorial softly, and he broke down in tears after reading this. "The thieves were fierce, and they were not afraid of death when they attacked the city. Under the Qiuci City, there were mountains of corpses almost as high as the city wall. The Turks abandoned the corpses and ignored them.
Such a crazy and ruthless thief, I will never dare to let him drive straight into our territory of the Tang Dynasty. I will swear to the death to block him from the country. In this way, I will have no regrets even if I die! "
Li Er followed the eldest grandson and continued to read, then covered the memorial and said to the eldest grandson: "My generals are not greedy for life and afraid of death. This is a blessing to the people of the Tang Dynasty, and it is also my greatest blessing. If the whole world attacks the Tang Dynasty, we in the country of the Tang Dynasty
There is still peace, singing and dancing, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, all because these brave soldiers risked their lives for it.
Come and pass on my decree, ask the Ministry of Rites and Honglu Temple to jointly formulate a memorial ceremony. In three days, I will personally worship the fallen war souls at Longshouyuan. From now on, I will stop eating for three days to show my empathy. "
It was not only Li Er who conveyed the decree, but the Queen's order was also issued at the same time, preparing to take a bath and abstain from food for three days to pay homage to the hero's spirit with the Emperor.
After this edict was issued, the prince's edict was also made known to the world. "The emperor's family of three is going to go without eating for three days. Why don't you eat?" Xiao Wu took a chicken leg and took two bites before asking Yi Yi
Di Renjie was in a daze. "You are already pregnant, so just eat more. I have no appetite at all these days." Di Renjie pushed the plate in front of Xiao Wu and forced an ugly smile.
Xiao Wu smiled sweetly, put down the drumstick, washed his hands, gently stroked his bulging belly and said to Di Renjie: "No matter how things change, one thing will never change at all."
Di Renjie shook his head dully and said, "Master has no tricks to play this time. All he can do now is to withstand the joint attack of the Turks and Tibetans and wait for Li Shuai and others to lead the army to rescue."
Xiao Wu took another chicken leg and put it on Di Renjie's rice plate and said: "Master will not seek death. No matter how good the reason is, Master will not seek death..."
