Chapter 81 Expedition to the West (Battle of Qinghai-Tibet 4)
"Tie your pants completely and securely, especially the iron feet on your hooves, and tie your skis to your waist. Make sure they don't fall off in the middle... For those wearing cotton-padded jackets, stay
Come down, and those wearing cotton-padded jackets and leather robes will follow. Every time you climb a hundred feet, take a sip of medicinal soup. Don’t forget, this will save your lives... You also need to bring tents and fuel, otherwise you will be killed.
starve……"
Many soldiers were surprised, why did they starve to death instead of freezing to death?
When Mr. Dafu said this, he had no clue at all. He didn't understand why he had to cross the Qiangtang Plateau at this time, when the mountains were blocked by heavy snow. Isn't this looking for death? In a place like this,
Even in summer, only life-threatening mountain walkers would walk this trail.
Also, why are you bringing so-called "skis" made from two wooden boards? Does Mr. Jia want everyone to light a fire on the mountain?
The greatest advantage of Mr. Dafu is the same as Mingyan. If you can't figure it out, don't think about it. It's useless to think about it anyway. All you have to do is implement it.
I have kicked the butts of several soldiers in a row, and I have lost everything. Either I forgot to bring dried meat, or I did not grease my weapons with butter. Anyway, there are not many things that can make me worry.
"I heard that there are not only yak meat over there in Qiangtang, but also fairies in the sky... Yak meat is used for barbecue. As for the fairies... hehe..."
The soldiers were spreading the word like this. This was what Mr. Xiao Jia told the generals above the school captain. The generals accidentally said it, which aroused the excitement of all the soldiers and they were all very interested in "meat".
, what a good thing!
Master Dafu stood beside Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) and was speechless.
Isn't it too late for you, Mr. Jia, to share the suffering of the soldiers at this time? From Yili to Qiangtang, such a long distance and time, you are eating and drinking comfortably in a big carriage that is as warm as spring.
Well, why didn't you mention "suffering with the soldiers" at that time? It's better now, the big carriage can't get on, and you still come to show such good face, you will take advantage of all the good things, really!
Climbing up in a meandering way, Mr. Jia climbed slower than everyone else and smiled shamelessly. He actually sat down to rest while crawling. Otherwise, this was not a fight, it was just a sightseeing tour.
.With climbing "iron grips" tied to your feet, climbing will be much easier. Although it is not as smooth as walking on flat ground, it is at least similar to climbing a normal mountain.
After climbing for two hours, Master Xiao Jia was still climbing up slowly, but those "quick feet" before had all fallen down.
By the time they reached the top of the mountain, there were no soldiers in front of Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi).
You have to have a sense of rhythm when climbing mountains. I climbed many mountains when I was training in later generations, and my experience is not comparable to that of you junior brothers.
Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) pointed at the soldiers behind him who were still like ants on the mountainside and said: "Anyone who has altitude sickness should be sent back to the bottom of the mountain immediately..."
"Why?"
"It will become a burden to us if we come up, and we might even die, so we might as well send them back. We are here to fight..."
Only then did you realize you were here to fight? I thought you were just here to have fun.
Put on the "skis" and put on the ski hat, Baoyu (burning small stone) seems to be a different person.
"Oh ho ho, oh ho ho..." With the first group of 300 people, Baoyu (burning small stone) slid down the mountain like lightning, and the shouts of ho ho ho resounded throughout the valley.
Mr. Dafoe who was waiting in line at the top of the mountain was dumbfounded, "This doesn't look like a general, he's just a child who won't grow up."
Following the example, the people behind started shouting and shouting like crazy. In just half a day, more than 10,000 people passed by.
Is this okay? Are you really treating the war as a joke?
There are 300,000 troops, and the forward force is only 50,000 horses. Now there are only 12,000 people who have crossed the Kunlun Mountains and entered the Qiangtang Plateau.
Mr. Dafu slid down the mountain for the last time. When he looked back and saw the majestic mountains, he felt dizzy. Mr. Xiao Jia dared to do this.
At this time, the flat ground at the foot of the mountain was filled with tents, smoke rising from the tents, and the smell of barbecued meat.
More than 10,000 people are barbecued and dried at the same time. What kind of scene is this?
Only then did the soldiers understand why they would have starved to death if they did not bring fuel. On this plateau where dripping water turns into ice, all food would be frozen into something as hard as stone. Not to mention biting it, even cutting it with a knife would be difficult.
Can't cut it.
All the tents are buried deep in freshly dug snow pits, which is very strange!
Mr. Dafu didn't bother to set up a tent. He went into Baoyu's tent and picked up the golden dried meat and started eating.
The dried meat they brought was thrown on the snow, buried in snow, and then roasted over the fire. This was the perfect meal.
Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) tore out small strips of dried meat with his hands and put it in his mouth. When he saw that Mr. Dafu had almost eaten, he said: "I'm going to divide the meat into pieces tomorrow."
Three waves of people set off, I will be the vanguard, and you will be the commander of the court. We must capture Xining, the center of the Qinghai rebellion, before the Tibetan New Year. Only in this way is my team."
"It's impossible. There is only one month until the Tibetan New Year. It will take us about twenty days just to travel, let alone besiege the city. Besides, I don't agree with you, a general, taking my position as a pioneer officer. You should
Don’t you know what you are doing?”
"Do you understand Tibetan? Do you know the route? Do you know how to lay an ambush in the snow?...You are nothing, and you dare to take my position as a vanguard officer? Now I appoint Jia Baoyu as the vanguard of the trip to Qinghai...
...I will take the order immediately and smash it..."
Baoyu's self-directed and self-acted actions completely made Dafu very happy. How could this happen? He is really just a child. I don't know what the Empress Dowager, the Emperor and his father thought, to think of such a big person.
The task was given to this little guy.
"You can go, but I have to follow you at all times, otherwise I won't feel relieved."
"Your command in the atrium is the greatest support for me. Bringing the people behind to Xining safely is the greatest contribution of this Qinghai-Tibet trip. This time we attacked Qinghai, and arriving safely was the biggest difficulty. Now I put the biggest
I’ve given all the credit to you, but you’re still not a stinker?”
Baoyu (Ran Xiaoshi) has always used his feet to "speak" to his subordinates in the past and later generations. Now that he has traveled to the Qing Dynasty, his temper is much better.
Passing through half of the Tibetan area from the Qiangtang Plateau to attack Xining in a sneak attack was what he came up with the moment he received the appointment. It would be much easier to pass through the border first and then march from Lanzhou to Qinghai, but it would not achieve the effect of a surprise attack at all.
Effect.
I don’t want to die anymore, I really don’t want to die anymore. After seeing the “two beauties”, Baoyu felt that her heart began to become “softer”.
If we attack from Lanzhou, many people will die.
"With a general like you, I don't know if it's the luck or sorrow of the people below, but I'm convinced..." Lord Dafoe said as he was about to walk out.
"General Dafoe, where are you going?"
"I'm too lazy to stay in the same tent with you. I'm not tired enough to panic."
"I'm afraid you can't leave. A war is about to begin now..."
"ah?"
(What kind of battle will happen next, please see the next chapter for the breakdown.)
