Yun Ye never thought that the situation at Cheng Yaojin would be so critical. With Old Cheng's temperament, he would not open his mouth to ask for help until he couldn't hold on anymore, even if that person was Yun Ye and his own.
Son Cheng Chumo.
Among the armies, only his conditions were the worst. When the Tang Dynasty was preparing to counterattack Tubo, the most elite Guanzhong disciples had been divided up by Yun Ye, Guo Xiaoke, and Li Jing, leaving him with only Hexi 12
The soldiers of the Prefecture, their equipment could only be regarded as third-rate among the Tang army. Even under such conditions, Lao Cheng still attacked Xifu with the Kehuang River like a whirlwind, once pushing the front to Dafeichuan, and spreading the war from Tuyuhun
It burned all the way to the Tibetan territory, and faced off with Songtsen Gampo's 200,000 troops for two full years without losing.
In two years, the wind and frost swords on the plateau did not weaken Lao Cheng's will, but instead made it stronger.
By now, the idea of conquering the Tang Dynasty has long been a joke among Chang'an people in the wine shop. They are toasting to congratulate Yun Ye for every victory, despising Li Zhi's sinister tactics, and being impassioned about Liu Renyuan's invincible feat of conquering thousands of miles of sea.
, and also cheered for Li Jing's rapid smashing of Tubo's attack on the sandbank.
Lao Cheng's record has dimmed under the bright halo of victory. Due to human nature, the people of Chang'an also like to hear good things. At this time, if someone tells him that there is still a team in danger in Dafeichuan, he will definitely
Despised by everyone.
Lao Cheng has been persisting on the plateau for two years. The lengthy supply road and difficult marching route have destined him to be unable to receive more assistance. Dafeichuan is the place where the battle is hard.
Yun Ye knew that it was time to advise Li Er that he should replace the exhausted old Cheng. Li Er probably also knew that he should order Cheng Yaojin to retreat from Dafeichuan and return to Hexi to plan for the rear.
There was more than one person in the court who saw this crisis, but everyone shut their mouths. A veteran has the dignity of a veteran. If Li Er ordered to change the general, with Lao Cheng's character, he would have to wipe his neck.
Therefore, under the dilemma, Yun Ye would generously give away his equipment to others, such as giving it to Master Sun Ren, such as giving it to Xue Rengui, and sometimes tempting Li Jing like a joke. However, he always kept a preparation in his camel city.
The equipment was very complete. He left these things to Lao Cheng. He very much hoped that Cheng Yaojin would open his mouth. As long as he opened his mouth, these supplies would be transported to the big city eight hundred miles away along the rugged road as soon as possible.
Feichuan.
So when Zhou Zhong appeared in front of him, he almost jumped up with joy. He wanted to tell Zhou Zhong to shut up, and get out of the house without saying anything, taking the supplies he had prepared, for fear of hearing from this guy's mouth.
News of Lao Cheng's illness or death in battle.
No place is safe on the battlefield. A stray arrow can kill the most noble general. There are many such examples from ancient times to the present.
Now Zhou Zhong has brought the best news for Yun Ye. The old guy is still alive and strong. This is enough. Yun Ye gave an order and Tuocheng began to advance towards the Black Rock Pass. Li Jing sent eight letters a day asking Yun Ye.
As for Ye's motives and what he was going to do, Yun Ye used the boring excuse that he was going to the Black Rock Mountain to take a hot spring bath.
Zhou Zhong has not been idle since he arrived in Tuocheng. After a large bowl of noodles, he was still not satisfied. He ate the candied fruit brought to him by Liu Jinbao, and let the military doctor treat the frostbite on his body with his bare back.
He had always thought that there was no difference between the Zhengxi Army and the Hexi Army where he was now. He thought it was only natural to ask for supplies from this army. He remembered how he begged the general to reach out to the Zhengxi Army in Dafeichuan.
, a hint of bitterness arose in his heart, but now he was satisfied that his plea was not in vain. The commander finally agreed. He listened to the noise outside and felt very happy. This was a logistics officer.
The noise of preparing supplies for oneself.
I vaguely heard kerosene, gunpowder, thunder rockets, and grenades. The names of these things are big killers. There should be no easy ones to deal with. As for things like food and medicine, Yun Shuai must be there.
Will be ready too.
I fished out half a peach from the jar, admired it for a while and stuffed it all into my mouth. The honey-like juice filled my mouth. Grandma, how long has it been since I tasted the fruit?" One hundred medical officers, fully armed, led
Bring all the bandages and medicines, and each person should bear thirty kilograms of weight. One hundred men, all armed, should bear fifty kilograms of weight. Ten crossbow array commanders, gunpowder crossbows, kerosene crossbows, and two-level equipment based on the highest base number...
"
Tian Yuanyi was very busy. In the cold winter days, his whole body was filled with heat, and beads of sweat kept sliding down his forehead. He had to fill up 3000 people, thousands of camels, tens of thousands of horses, and 32 hot air balloons. This required a lot of work.
A lot of patience and skill.
Weapons, gunpowder, kerosene, gunpowder bombs, and oil used as fuel were all carried on the backs of camels. As for food and medicine, they were all carried on the backs of war horses. Mr. Cheng had no shortage of cold weapons.
There are as many crossbows as you can hold, so that the three thousand soldiers have become the main force of the pack transport. After carrying their own things, each person must resist a bundle of crossbows. This is what must be done.
When Zhou Zhong came out of the house, he was surprised to find that all the supplies had been placed in different categories on the camel city. As long as tonight is over and before sunrise tomorrow, they will be distributed to everyone in strict accordance with the loading and distribution standards.
One person, every camel, every horse, every hot air balloon. This gave Zhou Zhong a new understanding of the efficiency of Camel City." Tian joined the army, and Lao Zhou had a small request. I wonder if he can join the army.
We can't be accommodating." Zhou Zhong walked to the tired Tian Yuanyi with a smiling face and whispered.
Tian Yuanyi looked Zhou Zhong up and down, like he was looking at an animal preparing to carry goods. After looking at it, he pointed to a small wooden house and said: "The liquor you want is in that room. You can take as much as you can."
But don't add burdens to others. I have arranged for every bit of their strength to be carried, so if you want to drink, you have to carry it yourself." "This is inappropriate, the baggage team always needs guards. You put all the
How can we be on guard and defend against the enemy when the manpower is fully arranged? Setting aside a thousand cavalry is the minimum requirement." Zhou Chong frowned.
"The hot air balloons tied to camels are responsible for the lookout, and the crossbow array is naturally responsible for the battle. You just need to work hard to bring these goods to Dafeichuan.
I heard from the commander that after you set off tomorrow, the army will immediately attack Jishi Mountain and Xingxing Gorge, and finally attack the Black Rock Pass to help you attract all the enemies. As for the Tubo scouts, you need to kill them yourself.
You only have five days to pass through no man's land. So many people and animals will consume a lot of food and fodder in five days, so you will be able to free up some horses and cavalry to fight. In this way
, when you pass through the Tibetan defense area on the Dafei Sichuan West Line, you can still have thousands of cavalry, plus the crossbow battalion to fight. Cheng Shuai must also support you. This is the best way at present.
Don't have any doubt, this is the result of precise calculations by Yun Shuai, Du Xiang, Liu Fang and a group of staff, you just need to execute it."
Tian Yuanyi wiped the sweat from his forehead and handed over to Zhou Zhonggong and began to prepare to carve out enough camels without damaging Camel City's substitute strength.
Zhou Zhong found that everything in the Zhengxi Army was completely different from the army he knew. The soldiers in the Zhengxi Army who were preparing for Feichuan were skillfully preparing their own locks, but the soldiers he brought were facing him.
The mountain of supplies was in a daze.
One hundred good-looking veterans each took away twenty soldiers. Regardless of whether they were captains or centurions, they began to put locks on them without any explanation, and black gunpowder bullets were hung on them.
On the hook on the lock, a short crossbow was installed on their lower abdomen. While installing it, they shouted a warning: "These gunpowder bullets are your sharp weapons against the enemy. As long as the enemy is close, throw them back after lighting them. Don't learn to attack."
That idiot Shi threw it out without igniting it. Anyone who does this will have to pick up the unexploded gunpowder bombs for me.
You'd better treat this short crossbow as your lifeblood. The arrows on it are all well-strung during battle. If you hold the crossbow in the wrong way, congratulations, you can ask the commander to send you to the palace.
On duty.
Don't tell me about your title. I'm a sergeant major. I'm the biggest among the soldiers. Even when the commander enters the new army camp, he must listen to me. I know you are tough generals and soldiers, but don't show off in front of me. If you are capable,
It’s not too late to brag about walking these eight hundred miles.
The commander-in-chief originally wanted to replace you with our brothers from the Western Conquest Army, so that I could have some leisure time, but the military system did not allow it, so I can only use today to train you and tell you how to use these things.
Congratulations to you who learned, your life was saved. Congratulations to you if you couldn't learn, you no longer have to suffer in the military camp.
What? I don’t want to endure it for a long time? You bastard will be dead by then, who cares about you surviving? Now that you have everything, turn back, let’s go outside Tuocheng to teach you how to use gunpowder bombs and short crossbows.
."
Amidst the long shouts, these cavalrymen, who had just eaten and drank for a short time, were led outside the camel city. Not long after, Zhou Zhong heard bursts of rumbling sounds coming from not far away.
He picked up a set of locks and observed them carefully. He couldn't figure out what they were used for for a long time. When he was confused, he heard Cheng Chumo speak: "Brother Zhou, this is a lock to hang on your body. With this thing, you can
It can reasonably distribute the weight throughout the body and mobilize the strength of the whole body, so that it can carry more things. This thing is made by the academy, so there is no need to doubt it. "(To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, novels are better
