Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty

The wind brought the warmth of spring, and only in the morning did there remain traces of spring cold. The veteran Wang Jing and the three of his men rushed to a mound outside Fengcheng, flew into the wind, and watched with interest the marching soldiers.

The petals on the tree not far away are blown in the air by the wind, and the light red color embellishes the softness of the army pressed by the swords and guns like the forest. The torrent of iron and peach blossoms form a marked contrast between strength and delicateness. Time blends naturally.

"Ka, Ka, Ka..." The overall relatively neat and heavy footsteps, like the main tune of this symphony, simple, rough and rhythmic; in the meantime are mixed with the clanging of armored swordsmen and horses, like accompaniment . The generals who were accustomed to this voice had an excited look on their faces; this kind of thing evoked the most memories and feelings of the warriors, and was the source of everything they had.

Wang Jingyuan watched the Tiger Jiefang's army, and sighed: "The elite are all in the Forbidden Army."

The aides next to him said: "Guo Duzhi is too young in the end, he rushes for quick success and quick gains, and he has to suffer some losses to wake up."

The minister said: "The roads in the Qinling Mountains have tortuous and difficult to navigate, and I only have half a month's food, and the time is too short. It is difficult for me to think that he has any achievements.

Wang Jing said calmly: "If you can't take the mighty city within fifteen days, you will naturally retreat. Let him try."

After hearing this, the staff said indifferently: "What the prince said is extremely true, the banned soldiers led by the ambassador Guo Du, Zhenan Jieshuai Xiangxun will not stop it, and the prince is not easy to force it to stop.

...Zan Jurun, the Hakka ambassador in the Fengxiang Mansion’s official office hall, seemed to be very optimistic that the Tigers could capture the city of Shu in half a month, but although he participated in the military aircraft, he did not intervene in military affairs and said nothing. Knowing that the Tigers and the Jiefang Army had indeed sent troops in advance, they wrote a memo.

The entourage was already waiting outside the door, Zan Juyun checked what he had written again, and made sure that what he said was true.

At this moment, he lifted the brush and held it in the air, and gently rubbed his beard with his left hand in a contemplative manner. After a while, he quickly put the brush in the inkstone and dipped it back and forth, adding a few more lines to the back. The main general Wang Jing did not stop Guo Shao from asking for an urgent battle.

...

Fengxiang was very close to Chencang, and the Tiger Jie troops arrived in less than half a day. They camped and rested again, waiting for the supplies and equipment to be ready. Guo Shaoxian ignored the generals, instead recruiting Luo Yanhuan and others who stayed behind in Fengxiang to see him.

Luo Yanhuan and a female Taoist priest met in the house temporarily used as the army's impoundment. After a few months, Guo Shao didn’t say a word of greetings, and asked directly: “Can there be changes in places like Tangcang Town?”

The generals were also used to this straight-and-go method. Luo Yan embraced his fists and said, "The final general is in Chencang, and he has met people from Tangcang Town five times before and after. The last time was at the beginning of this month, Tangcang Town has increased its troops several times. There are more than a thousand people, but the number of food, grass, ordnance is unknown."

Guo Shao remembered it silently and thought about the main place north of Fengzhou in his mind. He turned his head to look at the female Taoist priest, about her early thirties, with freckles on her face, but a familiar person.

The female Taoist said clearly: "I only returned to Chencang today. General Luo asked me to come to see Guo Dushi together. He also heard that Saint Aunt was also here, so he came to visit together. We live in Qingniling Temple. From the beginning of the first month of this year until now, a large number of troops have been seen passing by Qingniling almost every day; it is difficult to move on the ridge and the roads are often blocked. I hid in the forest behind the nunnery for a few days and counted the number of people who crossed Qingniling. On a sunny day, at least one hundred and eighty-six people pass, and a maximum of 321 people pass; on rainy days, there are occasionally a few people pass, up to twenty or thirty people. Qingniling is rainy, and it rains for a little while from January to March, plus When the road is muddy, it’s hard to walk half of the time... 20,000 people have passed through Qingni Ling within three months; the weight of the grain is not easy to see, and it is transported by mules and horses, carts, and others. It looks like a lot of people who walk with them."

After listening to Guo Shao, he was surprised that the ancients certainly didn't understand the method of sampling statistics, but the method of the female Taoist priests by sampling the number of days and then performing the average stacking estimation is the same. I heard her speak very organized and articulate, and instinctively this woman was not stupid at all, so she specifically asked: "What is your name?"

The female Taoist replied: "If I go back to Guo Dushi, my surname is Wang, and I will be called Xiangu Bai after becoming a monk."

Guo Shao nodded and asked, "Qingniling is the only way on Chencang Road?"

Aunt Baixian said: "There is a post house in Qingniling, which is indeed the only way for the official road. But I learned from the nun's nunnery that there is also a white water road to the east, which is just a small road for some fugitives and profiteers. There are few people, and there is no post house for supplies. Usually people don't take that path. Therefore, the Shu army coming from Xingzhou has to turn over Qingniling."

Guo Shao immediately said: "Luo Yanhuan is going to fight with the army. Bai Gu, you don't have to go back to Qingniling Temple, stay in the Chencang stronghold, take care of the work outside, ask clearly about the situation and write it down. How?"

Bai Xiangu turned to look at Jing Niang, and Jing Niang nodded. She replied: "Yes."

Guo Shao then asked the female priest to retreat, and then sent someone to notify the commander to meet with the generals in the hall.

When sixteen generals of the Tiger and Jie army arrived one after another, Guo Shao walked into the hall with his entourage. The generals clasped their fists and bent over to perform the military salute, and said one after another: "I pay my respects to Ambassador Guo Du."

Guo Shao sat down on the chair above and waved his hand to indicate that the generals stood in two rows in a high and low order and looked at Guo Shao one after another.

"Three days later, the whole army will leave Chencang and march towards Sanguan." Guo Shaoxian said. Everyone watched him and listened carefully. "There is only one road from Sanguan to the former camp of the Shu army. Our early combat goal is very high. Simple, remove the eight military villages in the front camp of the Shu army. At present, the number of enemy soldiers in the villages is unknown, but the roads in Shu are narrow and difficult to spread horizontally. The military villages blocking the road will not be too strong. I decided to use two commanders in the front , Take turns to attack, the main force is postponed, and one by one advances..."

Suddenly, the generals eagerly said: "The final general is willing to be the forerunner!" Then the generals rushed to fight.

Guo Shao said in his heart: These generals usually seem to be regular, but Wufu is not stupid. They all want to do such a good thing... The military village in front of the mighty city is just a stronghold, acting as an early warning and a buffer. Not many and scattered into eight, each of them is not too difficult to defeat. The difficulty is low, but it is outstanding when discussing the merits. This is the first work.

"The first command of the first army, the second command." Guo Shao said loudly, raising his arm to stop everyone from shouting.

"The end is here!" Two generals stepped forward with joy. Another clasped his fist and said: "The final commander is Li Dazhu!"

Guo Shao pretended to be fair and said: "The road of Shu cannot be expanded horizontally. The army marches, and the first and second army are deployed in sequence. You two are responsible for leading your troops to attack the eight military villages and eat them one by one. Li Dazhu played first, and the second commander played second, taking turns to rest."

Dark-skinned|The rough Li Dazhu patted his chest and said: "We will break one in half a day. If we can't get it down, I will come to see you!"

"Good!" Guo Shao praised.

But people can't be selfish. These generals are just their own subordinates, and all the credit is taken. How can you give credit to those who serve you in the future? Guo Shaodang said: "Luo Yanhuan."

Luo Yanhuan, who was standing on the side, stepped forward, clasped his fist and said, "Yes."

Guo Shao said again: "You are the former army envoy."

The formation envoy is a temporary position. Because the Zhou army is strong and often deploys the moon formation in the field, there is usually a person responsible for coordinating the formation of the various ministries, that is, the formation envoy. This position is not the actual position of the military power, so the chief general can be appointed in a certain battle...If it is to appoint a military position above the commander, the Tiger Jie Army usually has to report to the Guards and Infantry Division for approval.

Luo Yanhuan said quietly: "The final commander will get the order!"

Guo Shao now appointed Li Chuyun as the superintendent of the battalion according to his thoughts. It is still a temporary position for military merit; as long as he wins, when Guo Shao asks for merit, he can say that Li Chuyun is very effective in coordinating the march... and Li Chuyun leads He has fought many battles. UU reading www.uukanshu.com is definitely familiar with marching and camping. Using him in charge of this matter can at least prevent some mistakes caused by lack of experience.

The chief’s confidant and his subordinates have contributed to him. Guo Shao felt that his actions were fair, and he immediately said: “This general sent a horse to find out that the Shu army will increase more than 20,000 troops to Qin and Feng in March. There are many opportunities to fight hard and make merits. This general will also be remembered one by one. He will play all his merits and demerits when his classmates return to Korea, and there will be no omissions."

All will worship.

Guo Shao then ordered twelve commanders to select brave soldiers, each commanding a team of three hundred people in twelve teams to form the Chinese Army's guard on duty, and let Yang Biao be the guard; Luo Mengzi was the deputy, and the two were on duty in rotation. .

Guo Shao used tricks. According to the rules of the Department of Guards, the following military positions were generally delegated to all military generals, and only statistics were prepared; less than 300 people commanded, he appointed generals on the spot.

Guo Shao didn't ask the person, and let the military commanders be responsible. Anyway, he had seen it many times in the second army barracks, and there were no too weak soldiers; they were sent out by various generals, usually it didn't matter in the headquarters, they happened to be used by Guo Shao.

Everyone gathered in the hallway, and Guo Shao was not verbose. He arranged the combat affairs and personnel after repeated attempts, and then asked Li Dazhu and others to repeat the military order. He ordered the dissolution of the group.

On the eve of the dispatch of troops, Guo Shao called Zuo You again, and told him to take people to contact the civilian husband who sent food to the army after the battle, and go to the front to transport the wounded soldiers. Guo Shao knows Zuo You better, and this person has some bureaucratic minds, but the military strategy asked him if it was useless and basically useless, so he just got him some work.

Three days later, the whole army opened up, leaving Chencang and marching towards Sanguan. The twelve commanders formed a column, dispatched one by one. The officials of Wang Jing's aides' office also followed with the civilian husband to help carry the luggage. For a time, the road was vast and mighty, like a long dragon.
