"Jiayuguan, not far to the west of Jiuquan City, will definitely be the location of this decisive battle. After this battle is over, we can all make a fortune by picking up bones there. I don't know how many people will die. Alas!"
Fang Chongyong, who was enjoying Anaye's massage and groaning comfortably while leaning on the Taishi chair, couldn't help but sigh.
Anyway, Jiayuguan is not his stage, and Fang Chongyong has decided to settle down in Shazhou.
Now that I have nothing to do, I can point out the country, and I feel quite comfortable like those who come ashore watching the unlucky guy struggling in the water.
Fang Chongyong was really a layman when he faced the enemy. He couldn't lift a sword or draw a bow. He was also very self-aware. He just had to live as he was. It would be better to die than to live.
But as for military strategy, Fang Chongyong actually had a deep understanding of it. He could integrate the terrain and terrain into the tactics of the two armies' confrontation, and he could also see some tricks.
Fang Chongyong knew what kind of terrain the Jiayuguan side was like.
To sum it up in one sentence, it is a good "bone burial ground". If there is a real fight, no matter how many lives there are, it will not be enough to fill it.
"Tsk, tsk, it seems like what you said is true. You are talking nonsense again."
Anaye sneered, then sighed, her face softened, and she asked with some worry: "Mr. Lang won't go again, will he? Won't he lead troops to fight again?"
Wenshushan said without any fear.
When encountering ordinary situations, it will test the commander's tactical adaptability.
He followed the order and left.
There is a reason to spoil those people.
Even if Brother Ji kneels in front of me, I won’t go.”
Very few things are so strange. We believe in being approachable and approachable, and we believe that treating people with etiquette will mean nothing.
Although Qin Zi did not arrange a "pure team" like the Song army who came here (that is, the arms were always replaceable and the combat flexibility was slightly reduced), the main force still had a clear division of labor, and each arm performed its own duties, not eyebrows.
A handful of beards.
It's a war, how can we accomplish meritorious service?
The strong man who spoke was called Qin Ziying, the deputy envoy of the Chishui Army. He had been serving in the army there for a few years and was much older than Anaye.
"He understands that everything is fictitious, including wealth, official positions, beauties, holy relatives, and connections. Those things may have been there before but are gone.
"Got the order!"
Be good at time management! You can waste your time! All entertainment is prohibited!
On the other hand, military expenditure will account for less than 40% of the imperial court's expenditure, and the proportion will definitely increase and decrease year by year, with a ceiling below.
He is not a Qinzi, why should he work overtime? And if he has to work overtime, he must work so much, it will kill people!
Very rarely, worries that play a practical role are just an extra burden.
It’s time to find something serious for him to do, without giving him stage fright.”
Through those several expeditions, Zhang Guangsheng has not yet proven his ability to control the army to people from all walks of life in Ji Ge.
"It's bad if you go there, it's really safe. Hexi hasn't been hit so hard for a long time.
When the enemy advances seventy steps, the crossbowmen hold swords and sticks (Mo Dao or sticks) before firing arrows and join the vanguard in attacking.
Between Ma Yuanqing and the Qilian Mountains in the south is a small canyon that accommodates Tuosha Prefecture. The east side of the river is dozens of meters lower than the west side! The small canyon is nearly 800 meters narrow, which makes people sigh. Beyond it is the natural defense line of Jiayuguan.
.
You cannot be kind to the strong, but you can pray for the weak.
Only your own abilities are real.
The sound of soldiers fighting against armor resounded through the sky, and the bloody fight was over.
The canyon has a small difference in height and is also very steep. They are all cut into special cliffs. Only the southernmost part of the canyon is slightly flat. Xiao Tang built a wooden bridge outside there called "Tiansheng Bridge"
, can only accommodate two people passing side by side.
Either go through the heavily guarded small canyon, or cross the "Shengshengqiao" where one man can pass the pass and no one can cross it. In the era when the city was not built, how to defend Jiayuguan, whether it was to the east or to the west
On this side, it is a headache.
"Haha, it looks like he is really powerful now!"
Bang-dang! Bang-dang! Bang-dang! Bang-dang!
Only the small victory of not destroying the country and the expansion of territory in a position that is expected to be within reach in the future will make the Tang army excited.
Anaye turned to Dong Yanguang, the newly appointed military envoy of the Xiaodou Army, and said: "He will lead the main force of the Xiaodou Army and set up defenses near the desert in the north of Jiayuguan Pass. Don't let any Tubo people retreat!"
Under a low hill southeast of Baishan Mountain in Jiayuguan, Hexi Jiedushi Anaye was taking several junior generals in the army to observe the battle situation and give overall command.
"Of course I won't go, I won't go anyway.
Because as long as the main front of Qinzi in Jiayuguan Pass is penetrated, all the other Laihe's tricks will be effective!
Anaye continued to stand at the foot of the hill and watch, and I saw the two armies punching each other hard to the flesh, and blood flying everywhere. The soldiers of the two armies who were still alive and vigorous after that all fell one after another, and no one in front could make up for it.
.
Anaye waved her hand and said calmly.
Baishan in the north and Ma Yuanqing in the south form a small canyon along Tuosha Prefecture, which is also the main road from Suzhou to Guazhou. The narrowest place is not more than seventy meters away!
Wenshu Shankou, who was dissatisfied with his integrity, made a special sarcastic remark.
That's like whether there are two leaves in the sky that are exactly the same or smaller, and whether there are certain ways to win or die in a battle. Only the stubbornness of a wooden fish's head makes a mediocre general.
Therefore, how to fight after the formation is actually fixed, and the basic routine is just that. Even a layman who knows everything and follows the "tactics manual" will not be able to fight in a decent manner.
It’s nothing, it’s the same as discussing with them. When the time comes, just take out the charter they’ve negotiated and show it to me.”
At that moment, Qin Ziying quietly opened the door of the study, walked back, raised her hands and saluted: "Envoy, a local small businessman and a small Hu businessman from the Western Regions are jointly hosting an envoy at Zhang's old residence."
Among them, the armies are divided into archers, crossbowmen, garrisons, vanguards, cavalry, jumpers, surprise soldiers and other types according to their functions. Occasionally one of those arms has few skills, and they can take on whatever duties they need to fight. The tactics of the soldiers
Literacy is very low.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! As the person who controls Ji Ge’s military power, I should have no airs about you.
Seeing that the lines of the two armies were intertwined, and the Tibetans even made a small breakthrough in some areas, Anaye still changed her expression and ordered to Tan Ziying: "He will take the elite of the Chishui Army and fly across the Tiansheng Bridge now."
However, the situation has changed today, and the Tibetan army has finished gathering!
It is necessary for a Hexi native girl to worry about such trivial national affairs every day.
When the battle situation of the infantry in the rear is smooth, the cavalry army can attack the enemy in the rear, and the heavy infantry can advance to reorganize and prepare for reinforcements.
It's a meritorious service, why would you be so embarrassed to ask for money, food, and supplies?
The northwest defense system of the Tang Dynasty advocated "mobile defense" and treated the Hexi Corridor as a whole.
The heavy infantry of the Tibetan army were rubbing and swaying in full body armor, and they were marching towards the wooden fence of Laihe in disorder. The Tubo people seemed to want to play something fancy, and we seemed to have seen Qin Zi's plan, and maybe we were not very fond of it.
care.
I pointed to the wooden fence behind the Laihe Front above the hill and said.
In Anaye's formation, she completely abandoned these heavy infantry, and also omitted a small number of archers and crossbowmen. Those bows and crossbows were used to deal with the heavy armored infantry that Tubo was proud of.
The effects are extremely unlimited.
Therefore, at least half of the facilities in Meidang at Jiayuguan are still used to mobilize troops and travel to and from merchants and tourists, so it is far from being said that it is "impregnable".
On the front of the canyon, there will be rounds of bloody and bloody battles.
Regrettably, on the battlefield...there are actually many so-called "special situations", and on the contrary, such "unroutine situations" abound.
"If you are a little arrogant, others will believe you.
At a distance that could not cause damage, the crossbowman could only fire one arrow. On the seventh arrow, the ax of the Tibetan heavy infantry hit him in the face.
If you don't have much food to eat, you will cook whatever you want, and if your guests like the "taste" of your meal, you will cook whatever you like, and you will have a fixed way of doing it. This is also a dead-end rule of making every effort to find a way out.
Fang Chongyong waved his hands quickly and said boldly.
Wenshu Shan was stunned by those words. A long time ago, your eyes gradually became gentle, and you took the initiative to hold Qin Ziying's hand and said, "Remember, if he was lazy in the past, you would hit his palm."
In the past, you had the final say in Qinzi's military affairs."
Don’t even think about the quietness of time or anything like that!
That part is actually not the easiest part to direct the war.
Qin Ziying said something in a warm tone that made Wenshu Mountain shocked and unbelievable.
During that time, you had been on tenterhooks. Many times you dreamed about Zhang Guangsheng waving goodbye to you in the middle of the night, dripping with blood.
"The sword and shield soldiers are holding the fence in order to attack rashly and attract the heavy infantry of the Tibetan army to attack. Before the Tibetan cavalry is sent out, let your heavy cavalry go over and harass us with bows and arrows. Do the Tibetan people have cavalry and archery skills? We will fight with them.
It’s so beautiful.”
Before I left, Manjusri asked curiously: "Is Mr. Lang so arrogant? He seems to have exactly the same way of doing things in the future."
That should be a good thing."
"Got the order!"
In this way, the border town generals must stop provoking the surrounding areas and support the bandits in order to get less military expenditures and less supplies!
Dong Yanguang also turned and left.
There is a strange seriousness on Zhang Guangsheng's face, which is touching.
The winner of that battle is probably better than the Tibetan army here in the desert. I'm sure the Tibetans don't have that trick, or they are too late, so we are just waiting to die!
There is nothing better than kindness in commanding a soldier. The coach's heart is always the cruelest. In our hearts, there is only one word "failure".
In border towns, there is nothing if there is no army. Any money belongs to others. Only now can Qin Ziying truly get rid of the embarrassment of being a "bicycle governor" and take control of Ji Ge's military and civil affairs.
When the enemy reaches eighty paces, the archer stops shooting;
"From tomorrow onwards, you must be tolerant and implement your study plan.
"In that game against the Tibetans, we retreated without a single step. It was truly awe-inspiring in the Western Regions!
"kill!"
These people are here to discuss new rules with us. Since they are asking for help, they must not act like they are asking for help.
After that one time, the Tibetan people will definitely be hurt, and Hexi will probably not have a long period of peace.
He comes as soon as he is summoned and goes away as soon as he is waved, yet he still thinks that he is a wild dog wagging his tail begging for mercy.
Anyone who sees it will be moved. It's a pity that someone can stop us.
After passing through the present Jiayuguan Pass, no Guancheng was built. Only a few beacons were built in certain key areas, at least half of which are relics of the Han Dynasty.
Whether it's reading and studying or exercising, whether it's military tactics, swordsmanship, and archery, all of them should be followed.
It’s both learning and exercise, how can you become weak?”
In fact, it is exactly the opposite of what Zhang Guangsheng said. I think all border towns, including Hexi, will retreat into the "era of military involution" in the near future!
South of Ma Yuanqing, Laihe placed hundreds of crossbows under the cliffs on the east bank of Tuqinzi! At that time, tens of thousands of arrows were fired from a low position, and the Tibetan defenders on the other side of the river were shot into a sieve! The elite of the previous Chishui army
, will fly across Tuoshazhou from Tiansheng Bridge, and then press down from the southern flank of the Tibetan army!
"Commander Jie, the Tubo army wants to turn against the foreigners!"
Hearing those words, Qin Ziying suppressed the excitement in her heart, folded her hands and bowed deeply to Zhang Guangsheng.
Just tell us that I have just returned to Jige from an expedition. I need to recuperate in order to meet guests.
I deliberately made a mistake and vacated the desert area in the north. Did I send troops to defend it? The Tibetan people must be good enough. They will send troops straight from the north, cross the Baiwai Desert, detour to the front of Laihe River, and then try to defeat the middle of Laihe River.
military.
There are only a few similar regulations, but the length is quite large.
Now that he has control of the army, is it only natural that such small local households and small merchants from the Western Regions are also bad and deal with him in a high profile?
A line of horse-repelling stakes was also arranged behind the wooden fence to fix the basic shape of the military formation. However, it was easily dispersed by the Tibetan cavalry.
When the enemy is at 170 steps, the crossbowmen stop firing;
Zhang Guangsheng comforted Wenshushan against his will and said, there was a truth behind his words.
One effort will bring down ten!
He wants to supervise you, and if you violate it, he can't hit you in the palm with a ruler!"
Because with the demise of the imperial army system and the popularization of the military recruitment system, the financial pressure on the imperial court will become smaller and smaller; the corresponding military salary rewards will become more and more; and the cost of raising soldiers will become less and less!
Because, when fighting on the battlefield, the situation is just like that between the United States and the United States.
Before the Ming Dynasty, Jiayuguan Pass became unknown and was the westernmost end of the Great Wall in the North. It is too much to call it "the first pass in the sky".
Keng!
Although there will be fewer small-scale wars around Hexi, large-scale conflicts will completely stop.
How can you get promoted and make a fortune if you kill your enemies like nothing?
Under normal circumstances, when Laihe was in positional warfare, whenever the battle unfolded:
It would be abnormal for you to go, but it would be appropriate if you go.
It is definitely beneficial for Tiaodang, Qi, and the cavalry army to retreat, and all the infantry (excluding heavy infantry equipped with swords, including sword and shield soldiers who defend bows and arrows and other long-range weapons, and heavy infantry armed with short weapons) must
Cooperate with the horse army to fight at the same time.
That time, Anaye gathered the Mo Dao team and determined to resist first, and then used the heavy infantry to carve out a bloody path in the center of the Tibetan army.
Qin Ziying waved her hands heavily, looking like she was understatement.
Anaye said to Fang Zhongyong.
Only by not assuming a condescending posture can you show your elegance.
"As long as you come and kill as many as you can, it will be a hindrance."
Before our own heavy infantry and the enemy's infantry and cavalry came into close combat, the surprise troops, horse troops, and jumping troops were all prepared to make bold moves.
That would require us to come to the court for money without having any less military merit as a backing.
Laihe and the Tibetan army had fought many times on that battlefield. Whether they were fighting along the Shazhou coast or at the Tiansheng Bridge, the two sides never came into contact with each other, and there was no victory or defeat for each other. For a while, no one was able to defeat the other.
"There will still be wars over there in Hexi, you just know it.
"Yeah, yes, these are all useful."
And as Tang Jun's threshold increases, my expectations for military achievements will become lower and lower. Special failures will become splashes in Tang Jun's life.
"He is already a governor, and he still learns what to do..."
Zhang Guangsheng's eyes were far-reaching and he was looking at the door of the study attentively, which was in sharp contrast with his lazy sitting posture.
…
To the north of Baishan Mountain is a vast desert. We have to take a detour from Guazhou to Suzhou. We should take that road. But we can only use camels, but we can use horses. Are there any supply points and oases along the way? It can be as little as a hundred miles away.
The journey is very risky.
Zhang Guangsheng took out a small piece of paper from his pocket like a magic trick, handed it to Manjusri Mountain and said:
It is certain that no one can live a stable life now. It is definitely wrong to burn incense and pray to Buddha so little to thank God for his blessings.
The Jiayuguan Canyon is narrow enough for tens of thousands of people to line up troops here, so it tests the commander's tactical level.
After working hard for several months and killing so few Tubo people, now is the time to reap the fruits of failure.
Fang Chongyong turned around and left.
Seeing that Qin Ziying had nothing to say, Zhang Guangsheng shook his head and said:
"Well, he can dress more formally tonight and go with Yan Zhuang, and they can just discuss it with these people.
It can be seen from this that the arrival of troubled times is probably a long time coming.
That army will directly attack the Tibetan army, and then there will be no trouble.
The heavily armored Tibetan soldiers rushed down, and Qin Zimo responded with swords and horse-killing weapons. Both sides used their strength to kill each other!
On the one hand, the professional level and combat effectiveness of the Long March athletes will be weakened due to the introduction of relevant supporting systems, which will provide an objective basis for border generals to obtain military merit;
If he fights inside all day long, you will sleep all day long."
Qin Ziying kept saying something. Did Zhang Guangsheng realize that I am no longer a minor official in the court?
