Cultivation of chastity

After Li Daozong made a big show of cover, Li Shiji led his headquarters with three horses, plus the horses transporting supplies, went northward to the corridor, crossed the Liaoshui River, and rushed directly to Xuantu City.

Xuantu City was formerly known as the Zhenfan barrier fortress of Yan State. After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty destroyed Wei's Korea in the Western Han Dynasty, Xuantu County, Lelang County, Lintun County and Zhenfan County were established there, collectively known as the "Four Counties of Han Dynasty". One of them was established more than 500 years ago.

Xuantu County is the largest and most important of the four counties in the Han Dynasty. However, after the Northern Wei Dynasty, this place was annexed by Goguryeo.

Therefore, Xuantu County is still very important to the Han people, and the present Shenyang is probably where it is governed.

Because the front line is not really fighting, and Li Daozong's troops are attacking all the way from the mainland as an attraction.

Therefore, the security of Xuantu County is not strict. At least when Li Shiji led his army to touch it, he didn't see any reaction from Xuantu County.

"Mr. Yingying, although Xuantu County is on guard, it is not. According to my observation, their city gates are wide open and there are pedestrians coming and going. It seems that they did not expect us to come here." Zhang Wenguan couldn't help but look at the top of his head. The army formation shimmers.

Zhang Wenguan knew that Li Shiji had inherited Zhuge Liang's gossip army formation, but Zhang Wenguan had learned it before, and finally Zhang Wenguan retreated magnificently.

This thing is really not something you want to learn, so you can learn it. Zhang Wenguan deeply understands that there is a gap between people, and even this gap is bigger than the gap between humans and dogs.

But Li Shiji can not only master the eight trigrams formation, but also integrate the eight trigrams formation with the normal dispatching army formation very well.

For example, now, it is clear that thousands of horses are galloping, not to mention the dust that is flying up, it should be noticed by people.

But under Li Shiji's dispatch, with the use of an unknown army formation, all the existence of the entire army will be ignored and hidden intentionally or unintentionally, and even when one's own scouts are sent out, it often happens that they cannot find their own army when they come back.

Zhang Wenguan observed very carefully, and found that not only the army formation, but also his own camp had a similar effect of the army formation, which could make anyone ignore the effect of the army formation he was in to the greatest extent, which made Zhang Wenguan very envious, but his own No chance.

"En!" Li Shiji nodded when he heard Zhang Wenguan's words, and Li Shiji was holding the lookout tube that Li Taisai had come over at the moment.

In addition to observing the situation at the city gate, the lookout tube also scanned the mass graves not far outside the city of Xuantu County from time to time.

The camp I set up happened to be set up near here. After all, even when this place is normal, few people come to it.

And the cemetery, a place with a heavy atmosphere, is also bullying the weak and fearing the hard. Most of the heroic soldiers who are like hobs don't show it. Even if the soldiers die and are buried in this cemetery, maybe the cemetery will be destroyed. Suppressed by Yang Qi.

Li Shiji put down the lookout tube, and had to sigh, Wei Wang can always come up with something good.

Clairvoyance, for Li Shiji, is really like adding wings to a tiger. After all, the most important thing for this kind of military formation is to judge the battlefield situation. With this thing, it really saves me a lot of trouble!

In fact, Li Tai was able to make this telescope after the Vientiane Shrine was established.

It's just the same sentence, stained glass is easy to make, but pure transparent glass is really hard to make, let alone polishing this glass into a telescope.

In the end, I brought a few pure glass materials to the top ice sculpture master in Youzhou to get it out.

Of course, at the same time, I also got some microscopes and threw them to Taoists for experiments. After all, a basic element has not been determined so far. Even Li Tai is very disappointed, so he can only provide some technical support. .

However, with the current output of pure glass, it is almost enough to manufacture dozens of telescopes and microscopes every year.

In the final analysis, what Li Tai wants is the energy production of transparent glass, and even the production of experimental vessels according to needs, not only a small amount can be produced every year, but he can't do it if he wants to equip every ship with this thing.

"How are the soldiers resting?" Li Shiji turned to a young general and asked.

"Reporting to the British Duke, the soldiers have had enough rest and had breakfast, and now they are ready to go!" Pei Xingjian said to Li Shiji.

"So, our army will attack directly!" Li Shiji said calmly, "Keep the promise, you lead a thousand riders and be the vanguard!"

"No!" Pei Xingjian responded, and immediately gathered his soldiers and horses, ready to charge at any time.

Li Shiji watched Pei Xingjian leave in response, and nodded in satisfaction.

Pei Xingjian entered the army. The original history is that when Pei Xingjian joined the army as Zuo Tunwei Cang Cao, he was favored by Su Dingfang, the Zuowei Zhonglang who was on the bench, and inherited Su Dingfang's mantle.

But in this era, Su Dingfang, because Li Jing did not betray Tang Jian, and because of Li Tai, he has been stationed in Youzhou all the time, he was firmly in Youzhou to get the post of Tianjin governor and Youzhou Sima, which is not the same as Pei Xingjian Take the side.

But Pei Xingjian was a truly capable person. When Li Shiji became Minister of the Ministry of War, he naturally fell into Li Shiji's eyes.

And Li Shiji went to investigate Pei Xingjian and found that he was the second generation of the Wagang faction, Li Shiji was even more satisfied.

Because Li Shiji himself is a representative of the Wagang faction, Li Shiji is a political figure who brought money into the group.

He is different from Cheng Zhijie, Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin and others. They directly entered Qin Palace to serve Li Shimin.

In history, it is recorded in "Old Tang Book Li Ji Biography" that the secret was broken by Wang Shichong, and the crowd returned to the court.Its old territory extends to Yuhai in the east, Yujiang in the south, Ruzhou in the west, and Weijun in the north.

Li Shiji was still occupying the Liyang Warehouse at that time, he wanted soldiers and food, and he could even fight for the world as a prince.

However, with his unparalleled political sense, he decisively surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, and brought a large amount of land, soldiers, money and food to the Tang Dynasty.

To a certain extent, this is regarded as a capital investment, even if the shares are not many, but at least they belong to Datang's shareholders, not employees.

The most important thing is that in the name of Li Mi, he not only showed his loyalty, but also showed his ability. He also restrained Li Mi's corpse and took care of almost everyone.
So when Li Shimin defeated the two kings in the first battle, it was Li Shimin and Li Shiji who fought together.

Marshal Li Shimin, Li Shiji is the deputy commander, not a general under Li Shimin's command, which shows Li Shiji's political status.

Of course, this is the political reason why Li Shimin went to the border to eat sand for more than ten years after he came to power.

The key merit of Li Shimin's unification of the world is due to Li Shiji's contribution. Li Shimin's relatively core Wagang faction, not to mention anything else, even in terms of seniority, is headed by Li Shiji, and more importantly, it is the bones of Li Mi who was restrained by Li Shiji.

If you know that someone is holding a photo of an ancestor, he dares to package his orthodox inheritance, let alone Li Shiji's behavior.

In addition, Li Shiji himself is really old enough to turn the Wagang faction into a court faction, and Li Shiji's young age is too young, these are all problems.

This kind of person Li Shimin didn't kill him, but just let him go to the frontier to eat sand, and waited until the top figures of the Wagang faction withered, and then let Li Shiji come back to take on important tasks, which is enough to show Li Shimin's magnanimity and his fear of Li Shiji.

If it were a slightly more cruel monarch, a general like Li Shiji might not be able to survive the second day of Xuanwu Gate.

No matter how you say it, Li Shiji is a banner of the Wagang faction, and no one in the court can deny this.

Under such circumstances, Pei Xingjian naturally joined Li Shiji's subordinates, and more importantly, Pei Xingjian was able to learn the Eight Diagrams formation in his hands. After discovering this, Li Shiji's eyes filled with tears.

These days, it is difficult for apprentices to find a master who is truly capable and willing to teach.

But at the same time, if the master wants to find a talented apprentice, it will be easy to find.

It's like a math problem posed by Wei Shen, only three junior high school students in the whole country can answer it.

As for a certain author, he studied the topic for a long time, and only found that he could write the word "Xie", and asked the teacher for a point.

As for the Eight Diagrams Formation, the Eight Diagrams Army Formation, the Eight Diagrams Change Formation, the Eight Diagrams Xuanxiang... even though Zhang Wenguan's talent is already very high, he still couldn't understand this series of knowledge when he taught him.

After Pei Xingjian was replaced, although Pei Xingjian didn't learn quickly, he could see that he could really learn it. This alone was enough to make Li Shiji ecstatic.

"Cultivate well, and you will be able to inherit my system in the future!" Li Shiji couldn't help thinking in his heart.

Li Shiji is already 50 years old, and most ancient people can celebrate their birthdays at this age.

Li Shiji was very satisfied to be able to find such a piece of jade like Pei Xingjian at this time.

Li Shiji felt that he was in good health, not to mention living for 20 years, but he would have no problem living for another ten years, and ten years was enough for him to polish Pei Xingjian and pass on what he had learned in his life.

Pei Xingjian can naturally feel that Li Shiji attaches great importance to him, so he attaches even more importance to this pioneering task.

He carefully selected the troops for this battle, and then said to everyone,

"This war is to regain the land that originally belonged to me, so I will not let it go.

Let me be the vanguard, rush into Xuantu, and become the first step to regain the frontier!
You gentlemen follow me closely, and leave your legends on the roster of history together!Gentlemen, follow me! "

When all the soldiers heard Pei Xingjian's words, they couldn't help but feel a bit of enthusiasm.

Even if they are just soldiers, theoretically speaking, they will not have their names in the history books, but even so, who would not have a sense of honor if they really did this thing.

Just say that any soldier who has participated in the battle of the founding of New China, especially the Battle of Shangganling, who can not be proud of participating in such a war.

War is indeed cruel, but for some wars, Chinese people are willing to fight with their own lives.

Like the Unification War.

For Datang, they don't know whether the area where Goguryeo is located will produce the Jin Kingdom, or even a country like the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

But for the Han people, the land occupied by Goguryeo is the territory originally belonged to the Han.

Now that the Great Tang has inherited the national unification of the Great Han, at least the land that once belonged to the Great Han must be returned. This is a unification battle belonging to the Han nation.

Therefore, when Pei Xingjian chose to charge, these people followed closely behind Pei Xingjian!

They are government soldiers, relatively speaking, they don't have much personal glory, but when the word "big man" appeared, the government soldiers didn't know why they felt a warm current in their bodies, and they were more willing to follow Pei Xingjian to take the initiative to charge.

Language is powerful. Even if some things have been baptized for thousands of years, when people hear these two words, they are still willing to shed their blood for it, because it itself represents the highest glory of the nation.

At least now these two characters are Dahan, not Datang, so Dahan can arouse the blood of soldiers even more!

Holding a long spear, Pei Xingjian led the fine cavalry, and rushed towards Shuo Xuantu like a wolf like a tiger!
Compared with history, because the Goguryeo people were aware of the too far distance, after the Goguryeo people panicked, they chose to close their doors and defend themselves. Xuantu escaped for a while, but this time the reaction time given to Xuantu County was too short. It's short.

"Yes...it's Tang Jun, hurry up, close the city gate!"

When the gate guards in Xuantu County realized what they should do, Pei Xingjian led his soldiers into Xuantu County.

And as this elite army entered the city, the guards in the city couldn't resist at all, and was directly assassinated by Pei Xingjian, allowing the follow-up Tang army to come in and take over the city.

But after that, Li Shiji didn't miss this city at all.

After replenishing the food, he distributed the surplus food to the common people, and casually appointed and removed several low-level officials from Goguryeo to become the sheriff of this city, so he decisively left the city and went directly to the next city. Not a little nostalgia.

Li Shiji's behavior made the Goguryeo people completely confused, not knowing what Li Shiji was going to do!
Such a behavior of completely appointing Goguryeo people, isn't he afraid that Goguryeo people like himself will rebel again?

"Isn't Duke Ying's goal a city?" Pei Xingjian looked at Li Shiji in surprise.

"Goguryeo has built an unknown number of forts and cities here. If our goal is the city, how many Tang soldiers will be lost.

So our purpose is not to break through the city, but to lure Goguryeo to lead the soldiers to fight us.

And we are trying to annihilate Goguryeo's soldiers in the wild! " Li Shiji replied.

"So that's how it is!" Pei Xingjian couldn't help but lower his voice when he heard Li Shiji's words.

Li Shiji patted Pei Xingjian and said, "This is just a strategy, but tactically speaking, every time we break through a city, our supplies will increase, and our duration will be longer.

And when we won the field battle, those cities that surrendered, they had no choice but to surrender.

So what you did was not in vain.

Keep the promise, I am very optimistic about your future, and you will be a good general in the world! "

"Britain's praise!" Pei Xingjian immediately felt better when he heard Li Shiji's words. With such praise from the British, it seemed that he had a chance to become a good general in the world.
