Naturally, Cao Rui would not admit such "slander". He frowned and laughed: "When I first came to Yangzhou, how did I recognize the girls in Yangzhou? I was joking." Yun Zheng called himself "my son" because he was
Remind Cao Rui that his title is higher than his, and Cao Rui does not show weakness. He calls himself an official and calls Yunzheng his title as Yun Duzhi. This is to say: You are lower than me.
Yun Zheng chuckled: "So, Mr. Zicong is here... Could it be that he also heard about the name of Miaoyufang and came here to appreciate it? To be honest, Mr. Zicong said that Miaoyufang is indeed a wonderful place, and the songs in it
The beauty of Ji Wuji's singing and dancing is unparalleled by ordinary brothels. Even princes and ministers who are used to admiring spring flowers, autumn moon, mountains and flowing water may wish to come here to watch this refreshing singing and dancing. It can not only relieve the fatigue of daily official duties, but also
It is also beneficial to the body and mind, and it can cultivate one's sentiments. The most elegant thing is nothing more than a superficial view. I wonder what Mr. Zicong thinks?"
Yun Tanhua, who is famous in the literary world, even said that this place is elegant. What else can Cao Rui say? He could only nod: "Well... this place... is really elegant." But his eyes remained in front of Yun Zheng, and the ink was still wet.
on the couplet
Lin Sheng was a little dissatisfied, turned to look at Yunzheng, then looked at Lin Xi, and smiled: "It's quite leisurely, singing and dancing, and the red sleeves are fragrant. It seems that the sixth brother is full of confidence in tomorrow's big exercise
Already?"
Lin Xi also laughed: "There are some things that instead of improvising, it is better to work hard at ordinary times. Although my Feng Wuwei has a pointer like me who is not good at military affairs, fortunately they strive for their own success. Deputy Yuan and Supervisor Shao
Ling You are all generals who lead old soldiers, so this training is not bad in my opinion, little brother. Since the subordinates are capable, we as superiors can only let others perform. It is not my style to do everything by hand.
What do you think, Fourth Brother?"
Lin Sheng's lips moved, but in the end he didn't speak, and just nodded very coldly.
Zhou Jun's eyes turned, but he couldn't resist saying anything. Leng Yu glanced at Yunzheng a few times, snorted, and chuckled: "Young Commander Yun is indeed very elegant. After the competition, there is still Yaxing."
Come to this place of fireworks to relieve fatigue... Well, I also proposed a couplet for it. The fourth prince said that the sixth prince is full of confidence, but this prince thinks that prince Yun is more chic and comfortable."
Yun Zheng looked at Leng Yu, lowered his eyelids, took out the jade pendant on his body, pressed it on the vermilion ink pad next to it, printed his name on the corner of the couplet, and then said leisurely: "In fact,
Yun Zheng doesn't care about the outcome of the competition. What Zheng values is just the actual combat performance. An army, no matter how powerful it is, or how powerful it is, it's useless. It can only be dragged out to fight. If it can fight tough battles, it can fight.
If it wins the battle, then it is a good army. Otherwise, it can only wear bright armor and hold majestic weapons... I, the Yun Family Army, have always been used to fight. To do things like Lu Bu, I
I don’t care, and neither does my father. In that case, why should I be anxious?”
The so-called Lu Bu is an important part under the "imperial system of my country's feudal society" and is generally interpreted as the "Guard of Honor". In fact, the content covered by the Lu Bu is much richer than the guard of honor. The Lu Bu is specifically and directly for the emperor. The Lu Book to serve major events has already appeared in the Han Dynasty. Cai Yong's "Doctrine" records: "When the emperor goes out, the order of driving is called Lu Book." Han Yingshao's "Han Guan Yi" explains: "The order of the emperor's driving is called Lu. The soldiers and guards are led by armor and shields on the outside, and they are all called books, so they are called Lu books. The "Lu" of Lu books is the tongji character of "橹" in ancient times, which means "big shield". Jia Yi said in "Guo Qin Lun" The words "Millions of corpses are lying on the ground, and the blood is flowing away", which means that the battlefield was fierce and the blood of countless people who died in the battle flowed into rivers, which can float a large shield. From the protective meaning of the shield, it was extended to the protective measures for the emperor, including The organized actions of weapons and equipment and escorts, that is, the "carriage and driving order" plus "the military guard with the armor and shield as the leader." That is, the scale, quantity, and grade of the equipment form the written classics. After more than a thousand years of development in feudal society, the Lubu system of the Great Wei Dynasty has become increasingly complete. In addition to chariots and guards, ceremonial guards (carrying golden melons and treasure tops) have also been added. , flags and flags) and music and dance (music performances and dance performances), using modern language to describe the content of the book is: the rules and regulations for major state activities of heads of state, which include honor guards, military bands, dance performances, vehicle services, traffic safety, The overall scale of written systems such as public security and security must be graded and implemented according to the importance of state activities.
There are five meanings and functions of the Lu book: first, to ensure the safety of the emperor and his entourage; second, to show the supreme authority of the emperor; third, to regulate the level of etiquette; fourth, to show the comprehensive strength of the country; and fifth, to show respect for the natural gods and ancestors.
of piety
The scope of use of the Lu book is for sacrifices, court gatherings, outings and travels. In the Wei, Jin, Tang, and until the Wei Dynasty, when the successor kings of various dynasties came to the throne, although the rituals were not consistent, there were two things in common: one was to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth, and to ancestral ancestors.
The second is that musical instruments are set up but not played. The ceremony is solemn and solemn without a joyful atmosphere. First, officials are sent to represent the heir to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth, the ancestral temple and the country, and then the enthronement ceremony is held in the palace, which requires a book.
But in any case, no matter how prosperous Lu Bu is, he can't help but be regarded as a "fashionable unit", a typical figure that is looked down upon by almost all military generals. Yun Zheng's words are a bit harsh, especially when the Leng family army is in a state of affairs recently.
It was a defeat. At this time, when Yun Zheng said such words, no matter how you looked at them, you felt that there was some sarcasm in them. But when these words came out of Yun Zheng's mouth, it was really difficult for others to refute them because they didn't mention him by name.
, Secondly, my own record is there, thirdly, the Leng family fought a bit cowardly in this battle...
But it was difficult for others to say anything, but Leng Yu had to say something, so he suffered a small loss. These people regarded the Leng family as a sick cat! Leng Yu's eyes flashed with hatred, and he said in a neutral voice: "God
Since the Yun family army has such a good horse farm, the cavalry is naturally more powerful than the infantry. It can fight those who can fight it, but even if it cannot fight, can't it just run away quickly?"
Almost everyone has no doubt about the superiority and inferiority of cavalry and infantry. That is, cavalry is "of course" better than infantry. Those who maintain this idea are not without reason.
The first point is that the "Six Tao" specifically explains the criteria for selecting cavalry in ancient times, saying that they must be "more than seven feet and five inches in length, strong and agile, and have extraordinary abilities, capable of riding, riding and shooting, forward and backward, left and right, advancing and retreating in circles, and crossing ditches."
Those who ride in trenches, climb hills, risk obstacles, conquer large swamps, ride on powerful enemies, and disrupt the masses are called warriors, and they must be thick." It can be seen that the selection of cavalry depends on height, physique, running (endurance), shooting, and agility.
(Reaction), courage and other aspects are much stricter than that of infantry, so the personal combat effectiveness of cavalry is naturally stronger than that of infantry
The second point is that the cavalry is at least 1 meter taller than the infantry (the sum of the heights of humans and horses) and holds weapons of the same length. The infantry can only attack the cavalry's waist (not necessarily fatal), while the cavalry can directly attack the infantry's head.
Vital parts such as the crotch and chest (highly lethal) are affected by the movement of the war horses. The level of stabbing and slashing damage of cavalry is higher than that of infantry. This can also explain that the infantry with short swords in the battle formation obviously suffer from the cavalry, while the infantry with spears can attack the cavalry.
pose a certain degree of threat
The third point is the shooting advantage that Yunzheng admires: In large-scale battles, do crossbowmen aim and shoot or shoot quickly without crosshairs? Judging from the fact that Zhuge's Liannu (one arrow with ten shots or more) is highly praised by crossbowmen,
Shooting in the battle formation is more about speed and range. According to the principles of mechanics, cavalry on horseback can shoot at a longer range with the same force as archers on the ground. You can say that cavalry usually do not use crossbows, but crossbows have a longer range than bows and arrows.
Far, but the rate of fire of crossbowmen is far lower than that of archers. Shooting is very common in cavalry tactics. At least in the early cavalry, shooting was their basic skill. What about the shooting skills of cavalry? Yunzheng’s point of view is that it is similar to CS shooting in later generations, that is
Relying on mobility and flexibility, you can shoot at the moment you stop; if you are an excellent rider, you can also shoot while riding. At least in the Yun family cavalry training, shooting is an important part. Hard training in the military can achieve the level of some ordinary people.
The unexpected effect is that some people think that he can still complete the shooting action when he is moving at high speed and can easily lose his balance. There is such a record about Li Guang in historical materials: "The Huns chased him with hundreds of horses, and Guangxing took the Hu'er bow.
, shoot the chasing cavalry, and escape." This situation of turning around and shooting shows that the ancient cavalry's riding shooting skills were already very advanced. It is precisely because of the mobility and flexibility of the cavalry that the riders can shoot from multiple directions in a short period of time.
Fixed infantry
The fourth point is the equipment advantage: due to the high cost of war horses, cavalry are well treated and play a huge role. At the same time, because of the large number of infantry and low cost, cavalry is also better than infantry in terms of equipment. This is mainly reflected in the serious difference in armor, especially in energy.
In this period, should a good piece of armor be equipped for the expensive cavalry? Or should it be equipped for the large number of low-cost infantry? The answer is self-evident, and the difference between the quality of the armor and the combat effectiveness of cavalry cannot be ignored.
Psychological advantages: As mentioned before when selecting personnel, the courage of the selected cavalry is usually stronger than that of ordinary infantry. The battle is a life-and-death fight. When the cavalry is wounded by arrows and the horse is wounded and rushes through the defender's arrow array, the human subjective mind at this time
Their initiative cannot be ignored. They will kill the enemy regardless of their lives. Only in this way can they have a chance of survival. Of course, the defenders can also fight desperately. Courage is an unknown thing, and it is also a special thing in cold weapon combat. But any general
will not ignore this factor
Yun Zheng knew what Leng Yu was thinking, and even many other generals outside the Yun family thought so, but they only saw the Yun family's advantages, but not the Yun family's disadvantages. Although the cavalry was good, the cost was extremely high.
And it’s not that it can’t be cracked. The key is to see whether the quality of the army is good or not, and the other is whether the general’s tactics are correct. Of course, Yun Zheng will not explain these words to Leng Yu. He knows what Leng Yu means, Leng Yu
I must have thought that Yun Zheng said this because he did not have the confidence to win, so he found a way out before the exercise.
Yunzheng put the things down, clapped his hands, and said calmly: "However, even if we are practicing, I, Ying Yangwei, am not afraid of anyone."
