The picture shows a small car. At the top there is a swan holding a rope in its mouth and trying to pull the car into the sky. However, there is a big fish with a rope also tied to it and it wants to pull the car into the water.
, a pig grunted and wanted to pull the car forward, but there was a sheep behind him pulling the car backward. Whether it was a swan or a fish, or a pig and a sheep, they all worked very hard, so this car
I had no choice but to stay where I was and not move.
The teacher said that this picture actually tells the children a truth. If you want to make the car move, you must use force in one direction.
The principle is simple and easy to understand, but the words "working together as one" are a bit difficult to implement.
Everyone knows that as long as everyone works together and exerts their strength in one place, miracles will often be created. But when it comes to reality, the scene in the picture is often the most realistic.
Fortunately, human beings are smart. In order to use everyone's power together, they have revolutionized the creation of power and violence. Otherwise, human beings cannot run fast enough and their skin is not tough enough.
The sharp claws were eaten clean by tigers and leopards in ancient times.
Power and violence are actually twin brothers. Power relies on violence to achieve unity among all people.
Yunzheng has great power and abundant violence, so all the defense forces at Yanmen Pass must listen to him. If not, he will use power and violence to drive everyone to work together.
Therefore, a key criterion for testing whether a commander is qualified and whether he can make his subordinates work together effectively is a key criterion. If measured by this criterion, Yun Zheng is undoubtedly a very qualified commander. He is the swan in the sky, driving the people in the river.
The fish, pigs and sheep on the ground together dragged the cart forward in one direction.
Xiao Huo'er was different. The furious and lion-like Guo Hengchuan was the most determined representative to attack Yanmen Pass, while Wu Gudu, who was assigned to be in charge of the Liao army's logistics, was a determined retreater. The envoy from Nanjing urged Xiao Huo'er
After defeating Ningwuguan, they must take a detour to encircle Yanmenguan. However, Xiao Huoer himself hoped to stay away from the powerful Song army at Yanmenguan and attack the side passes close to the Yellow River.
What young Xiao Huoer lacks most in the Liao army is prestige and power, whether it is the self-respecting Guo Hengchuan, the super noble Wu Gudu of the Liao Kingdom, or the envoy Yelu Da who came from the Nanyuan Palace in Nanjing.
The ancient capital lacked the most basic respect for him.
After three days of fruitless arguments, Xiao Huoer had no choice but to divide his army into three parts. The largest part, 200,000 people, was given to Guo Hengchuan to attack Yanmen Pass, and the 100,000 capital troops were given to Guo Hengchuan.
Yelu Dagu, the envoy of the King of Nanyuan, went to capture Ningwuguan. The remaining more than 50,000 elite Liao people were led by Xiao Huo'er himself to capture Pianguan on the bank of the Yellow River. In his opinion, this was the safest way to fight.
Now, every offensive direction maintains a suppressive numerical advantage. No matter which of these three armies achieves a breakthrough, defeating Yun Zheng, a famous general who has been deified by the Song people, is just around the corner.
After Yun Zheng heard the news, he spit out a sip of tea from his mouth. He stood up in surprise and repeatedly asked the scouts if they had seen it wrong. When the 16th route scouts collected the same news, Haidong in the sky
Qing Ye saw the three armies dispersed. Yun Zheng was so happy that he burst into tears. He hoped in his dreams that the Liao army could disperse. If those armies huddled together, he would have no room to speak.
At this moment, he really felt that he was his mother's Greedy Wolf Star, a Greedy Wolf Star who deserved to be invincible.
The 50,000 elites in my hand cannot defeat the 350,000 elite Liao army on the plains. However, if my 20,000 elites want to kill Xiao Huoer's 50,000 cavalry, it does not seem to be too difficult.
As long as the terrain is chosen appropriately and the timing is chosen appropriately, there is no reason why Xiao Huoer cannot be killed under Pianguan City.
As a result, the army of the Song Dynasty also moved at high speed, leaving Li Dongchu and Chu Dazhi's troops who were best at defense to guard Yanmen Pass, and then sent out 5,000 troops from Wu Jie's troops, for a total of 25,000 troops to face the crazy Guo Hengchuan troops.
In order to confuse the Liao people, Yun Zheng's handsome flag was left at Yanmen Pass, and the substitute sent by Zou Tong who looked very much like Yun Zheng also wandered around the front all day long with his military and civil servants.
And he himself took fifteen thousand of his direct subordinates led by Xiao Lin, Liang Ji, Peng Jiu, and five thousand of Wu Jie's men, and disappeared behind Yanmen Pass under the cover of night...
Guo Hengchuan had already stayed at Baicaokou for a day and night. When he saw the defense at Baicaokou, he already regretted why he had to attack Yanmen Pass.
If 300,000 people attacked Pianguan or Ningwuguan together, as long as they sacrificed their lives to advance, they would be able to defeat them one day. However, the Yanmen Pass in front of them was already beyond my imagination.
Baicaokou is one of the eighteen passes of Yanmen. There are two forts in one pass, Taihe Fort in the south and Changsheng Fort in the north. They are separated by rolling mountains in the middle. The pass is built across the river, with three pass walls and six
The gate, six forts, and the east and west are connected with the Great Wall on the mountain.
According to the estimates of veterans like Guo Hengchuan, it is impossible to capture this pass without losing tens of thousands of people. The mountain road is too narrow and the mountain is steep. Standing outside the pass, you can see the rolling logs and rocks piled high on the mountain.
Coupled with the extremely powerful gunpowder bombs of the Song Dynasty, these things required human lives to be consumed.
Looking back at the nephews and nephews of the Guo family who looked embarrassed, Guo Hengchuan shook his head. It was the first time for these young nephews to go to the battlefield. If his Haier and Shaner were still there, they would not show this influence.
With Junxin's expression, even Song'er would only think about how to break the formation instead of being afraid.
Guo Hengchuan has always warned himself not to think about these things. This will affect his mind. The most taboo thing for a general before a battle is to be restless. No matter how calm he is, when he sees a big flag with the word "Guo" rising on the Baicaokou Pass, he
My temples were throbbing.
A young nephew of the Guo family happily said: "Uncle, you are my eldest brother's flag. I went over to talk to my eldest brother and begged him to sacrifice the pass and come back. My eldest brother loves me the most and will definitely change his mind."
Guo Hengchuan was shocked and quickly stopped him from committing suicide. However, he was a step too late. The reckless young man rode the horse all the way and ran toward the pass as Big Brother called him. No matter how Guo Hengchuan called him, he did not look back.
"Brother, I am Xiaojiu. My uncle is here with an army of 200,000. Yanmen Pass cannot be defended. Come back quickly. The troops here are all our own. Xiao Huo'er is not here. Brother, come back quickly.
, as long as you surrender the pass, we will say that you are faking surrender, and no one will blame you. Brother, come back quickly."
The lustful thief stood at the city gate and looked at the young man named Xiaojiu strangely. After hearing his call, he smiled and said to the thief wielding the eight-niu crossbow: "Are you sure you can kill him?"
The thief laughed and said: "You are just a fisherman. You didn't catch the big fish, but you caught a small fish. No matter what, as long as it is a fish, we brothers will take it."
After saying that, he struck the mechanism of the Eight Ox Crossbow with a hammer, and a thick siege crossbow flew out. The distance was so close that the young man didn't even have time to shout. The huge siege crossbow was like a shovel.
The spearhead tore his body into pieces.
Guo Hengchuan closed his eyes in pain, and heard the sound of Guo's relatives shouting for Xiaojiu. He resisted the urge to vomit blood, and Guo Hengchuan spat out a few words one by one from between his teeth: "Logging,"
Prepare the trebuchet!”
Yunzheng had already ordered the willow trees in the wasteland to be cut down. The two-foot-high tree stumps were simply not enough to use. Guo Hengchuan collected trees within a hundred miles and began to build simple trebuchets. All the original trebuchets in the army were destroyed.
The black bone poison was distributed to Xiao Huoer.
The Liao people in front of Jiang Zhe didn't seem to be eager to attack the city. Ningwuguan had already taken on a completely new look after more than half a year of renovation. Jiang Zhe even creatively built two walls that protruded forward when building the city wall. With this,
With two protruding city walls, the front of Ningwuguan turned into three relatively narrow lanes, changing the previous wide terrain and greatly increasing the enemy's attack angle from one side to three sides.
Yun Zheng had described this kind of bastion structure before, and Jiang Zhe had only seen the sketch. Now that it had become a reality, he found that the bare city walls of the Song Dynasty were really stupid. With such a good method, the enemy could be conquered immediately.
The difficulty of the city has been tripled.
The reason why Yelv Dagu chose Ningwuguan as his breakthrough point was that he had been to Ningwuguan before. When he was harvesting grass valleys, he led too few people to break through Ningwuguan. In his opinion, as long as he
At that time, if we had more troops and a more determined attack, as long as we were not afraid of damaging the tribe, it would not be difficult to capture Ningwuguan.
But the Ningwuguan in front of him was completely different from the Ningwuguan in his memory. The dilapidated city walls were gone, replaced by tall walls made of stone. The three-foot-high city wall was now four-foot-high.
The stone is also outlined with white traces using Baihui, which is not only beautiful but also indicates absolute sturdiness.
What made his scalp numb the most was the two protruding city walls. He could even imagine that as long as his army came to the city, arrows would rain down from the two protruding city walls...
Jiang Zhe very much hoped that these Liao people could allow him to test the offensive capabilities of the new fortress. If the effect was good, he would write a memorial and promote this structure to all border castles in the Song Dynasty. This would have far-reaching significance.
, is definitely not comparable to a victory in a battle.
However, the cautious Yelu Dagu disappointed him. The Liao army slowly retreated, retreating ten miles before starting to set up camp. It seemed that the Liao general on the opposite side was going to have a long-term confrontation with him. (To be continued)
