Prosperous Tang Blood Blade
Page 341
This can be called the armor of invulnerability. Guo Luo was inexplicably moved when he got this armor, but he found that almost all the soldiers in the army were issued this kind of armor. Guo Luo had to say that Chen Ying was rich and powerful.
Of course, this is not the only thing that Chen Ying is rich and powerful. No matter who owns a sword that is as solid as mud, can it still be regarded as a treasure?But Chen Ying was lucky, not only the soldiers in the army had a handle, but even the peasants who followed the army were given a steel ax weighing fifteen catties.
In Chen Ying's eyes, the steel ax, which can be called a sharp weapon for killing people, is just something that can barely chop firewood. A siege machine.
In addition to equipment, the soldiers of the Tang Army also ate very well.Breakfast, lunch, and dinner. In this era, three meals are special treatment for the children of the aristocratic family, but Chen Ying not only gave the whole army three meals, but also ate very richly.For breakfast, there are three kinds of steamed buns, small rice, rice, and sorghum rice, and there is no limit. You can eat three bowls, which is definitely enough.
In addition to enough food, there are also dishes.Of course, the dishes are not good dishes, mainly tofu, bean sprouts, or radish stew.The steamed buns are all made from refined wheat. The coarse wheat bran is reserved for the warhorses as the concentrate, while the fine flour is used to steam the steamed buns. A half-jin steamed bun and a large bowl of bean sprout soup will basically fill you up. .
Lunch is a bit more hearty, there are three-finger-wide soup cakes (both noodles), soup and dry, very anti-hunger.Guo Luo didn't know how much food Chen Ying had. Anyway, the soldiers in the army ate it every day, but the food was brought in continuously from Chang'an City or Tongguan.
Although the taste of the food is not very good, the oil and water are not enough.But no one dared to say anything strange, what kind of world is this?Even a landlord with hundreds of thousands of acres of land at home can’t guarantee that he can eat rice and white noodles all at once. Save brushing.
Guo Luo knew a little about arithmetic. He knew that the whole army plus civilian husbands would total more than [-] people, and they would have to eat [-] shi of grain, as well as oil, salt, soy sauce and vinegar a day, but Chen Ying did not experience any shortage of supplies. signs.
Naturally, Guo Luo didn't know that there were actually three aspects to Chen Ying's supplies, part of which was the two stones of grain he carried when he set off from Chang'an, which was actually the grain and food he had exchanged from Li Shentong with his armor.
At this time, Li Shentong also became a second-hand dealer.The heavy armor that Chen Ying regarded as scrap steel was a treasure in Li Shentong's eyes.In fact, the powerful families all have their own private soldiers. Of course, if the number is small, Li Yuan can pretend not to see it. If the number is too large, it means you want to be disobedient.
Therefore, while reducing the number of private soldiers, these aristocratic families have been increasing the equipment of private soldiers. Unfortunately, the aristocratic clans do not have such advanced technology as Chen Ying. Made in a small workshop, the cost is almost as high as more than [-] guan, and the aristocratic family can't resist such a high price.But the heavy armor that Chen Ying sold was only a few dozen pieces, it was nothing more than a free gift.
As a result, Chen Ying was under Hangu Pass, and the aristocratic families brought their sheep, pigs, chickens, ducks or cloth to trade with Chen Ying.
At this time, Chen Ying had less than a thousand sets of heavy armor, but what he got in exchange was his luggage camp, with all kinds of luggage piled up like a mountain.
Chen Ying asked the troops to take turns to carry out offensive and defensive drills in the lower city of Hangu Pass every day, and unexpectedly achieved unexpected results.
The densely packed and neat Tang army soldiers pushed the ladder carts and nest carts to attack the city wall, but Wang Renze was frightened.Wang Ren felt as if he was facing a big enemy, and he asked all the soldiers to prepare for battle, but when he was still a stone's throw away from Hangu Pass, he took the initiative to retreat.
But Wang Renze had no choice but to tell Chen Ying when to turn the fiction into reality.So he had to keep an eye on the city wall himself, and take his steps to guard against death.
Chen Ying said, if you are willing to stand up to the battle, just wait.He conducts three or five whole-army attacks every day, and without exception, he moves away with one touch, without dragging his feet.Time is short, Wang Renze and his soldiers can still persist, but after seven or eight days, let alone ordinary soldiers, even Wang Renze is almost driven crazy by Chen Ying.
That night, Wang Renze had just been lying on the bed, before he could fall asleep, when suddenly the drums outside the city were beating loudly.In the past seven or eight days, Wang Renze didn't have a good night's sleep. He heard the sound of war drums, but quickly closed his eyes.Roaring hysterically: "You bastard Chen Ying, come here again..."
But Wang Ren deserved to be slapped in the face when his words just fell.I heard the guards shouting urgently outside the door: "Report to the general, the Tang army has attacked the city!"
At this time, the western half of the sky was already lit up with fire, as if the sky was on fire.Seeing this scene, Wang Renze naturally knew that this must be the torch in the hands of the generals of the Tang army. As the saying goes, when more than 2 torches were lit at the same time, it was like a mountain fire erupting.
In desperation, Wang Ren hurried up to the west wall of Hangu Pass as long as he put on his armor.
It's just that when they came to the west city wall, Tang Jun had receded like a tide.
What was left to Wang Renze were the backs of countless Tang soldiers, the mottled blood on the city wall, and hundreds of mutilated corpses.
Wang Ren yelled at the night sky, "Son Chen Ying, don't leave, everyone will fight to the death!"
It's just that Wang Ren was doomed to waste his efforts. When Wang Shichong just got up, Chen Ying had already returned to the big tent, lying on the big soft bed, sleeping soundly.
Wang Ren had no choice but to leave some of his staff and continue to sleep.
In the middle of the night, Chen Ying got up as usual, and then ordered people to blow the thick and desolate battle horn.As the sobbing battle horn sounded through the sky, the Modao Army and the Yueqi Army followed the order and got up and assembled quickly.
Shan Xiongxin, who was wearing a purple-gold tiger-head mask on his face, asked very strangely: "If the general talks about exhausting the enemy, it's almost the same now. Why don't you attack?"
Chen Ying looked at Hangu Pass, which was prostrate in the night sky like an ancient giant beast, and said, "I'm waiting!"
Shan Xiongxin asked doubtfully, "What are you waiting for, Lord?"
"I'm waiting for the east wind!"
Not only did Shan Xiongxin not understand, but he became even more confused: "Dongfeng? With the current weather, it is estimated that the east wind will not come for three to five months."
Chen Ying sighed and said, "This Dongfeng is not that Dongfeng!"
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------
The "east wind" in Chen Ying's mouth is not actually the east wind in the true sense, but refers to the wind direction of the imperial court.It was Li Shimin's plan to attack Zheng Wang Shichong.
Enough is enough, this is political correctness.In any period, the sorrow of generals is that they cannot see through the situation. On the contrary, Chen Ying sees this very clearly.For example, in Liang Shidu, there are obviously less than [-] soldiers and horses in more than [-] counties. Not to mention mobilizing the army of the imperial court, even a random general of sixteen guards, with a guard of more than a dozen soldiers and horses, can be tortured. Liang Shidu was dying, but the court did not destroy Liang Shidu.
Not because you can't, but because you don't want to.The area under the control of Liang Shidu happened to be in the Yinshan Mountain Road, from Mobei to Monan. In this case, if Li Tang eliminated Liang Shidu, it would mean that he had to face the pressure from the Turks alone.
But Liu Wuzhou was different. After Liu Wuzhou died, his power collapsed.In fact, the Turks at this time, like the Tang Dynasty, were afraid of beating wolves with a stick.Chu Luo Khan was also frightened by Chen Ying, and he did not dare to directly border the Tang Dynasty. As early as November last year, Chu Luo Khan sent people to Dou Jiande to pay [-] horses to the Tang Dynasty. Dou Jiande wanted Empress Xiao and Yang Zhengdao back.
Chuluo Khan Ashina Tulifer set up to welcome Empress Xiao and Yang Zhengdao to the Turks, support Yang Zhengdao as King of the Sui Dynasty, and allocate all the officials and people in the Central Plains who stayed in the East Turkic territory to Yang Zhengdao to rule and restore them. "Great Sui" regime.Yang Zhengdao set up hundreds of officials in Dingxiang, all in accordance with the system of the Sui Dynasty, and had more than 1 people.
In this way, the Sui Dynasty established a default buffer zone with the Turks in the direction of Hedong Shuofang.Even if they surrendered to the Tang Dynasty in name under the banner, the Turkic people did not dare to deal with the general manager of Youzhou and Luo Yi, the king of Yan, who actually made himself king.Because Chuluo Khan was really scared.
When Chen Ying only had thousands of cavalry under his command, he was no longer an opponent.Now, with the strength of the Tang Dynasty, he can easily pull out [-] to [-] cavalry. At that time, even if he hides in Longting, it will be useless.
When Li Yuan agreed with him to lead the left and right guards of the East Palace and the left and right commanders to attack Hangu Pass, Chen Ying actually understood that Li Yuan really didn't want Chen Ying to break through Hangu Pass.Because as long as you have a little military common sense, you know that it is impossible for 2 people to break through Hangu Pass easily.
Of course, if Chen Ying still used the distilled fire oil and gave Wang Renze a fire to burn the city, Chen Ying believed that Hangu Pass would definitely be the same as the Yanmen Pass guarded by Liu Wuzhou, and would be defeated in one battle.
He likes to take everything into his own hands, which is the nature of an emperor.As an emperor, Li Yuan had such thoughts, which naturally did not surprise Chen Ying. Breaking through Hangu Pass was not actually Li Yuan's goal. Knowing what method Chen should use to break through Hangu Pass was what Li Yuan wanted to know the most.
Deliberately only giving Chen Ying more than [-] soldiers and horses, just to force Chen Ying to take out the incendiary bombs that broke through Yanmen Pass.For Li Yuan's concerns, Chen Ying felt it was ridiculous.He really wanted to tell Li Yuan that if he wanted to, he could take out more powerful weapons, but because Li Yuan was so suspicious, Chen Ying really didn't dare to trust Li Yuan without reservation.
At this moment, a thunderous sound of horseshoes disrupted Chen Ying's deep thinking. Shan Xiongxin looked at this small group of cavalry, and suddenly he was slightly startled, and asked in surprise: "Why is he here?"
Chen Ying turned around and saw the person coming.This group of people were all his acquaintances, including the black-faced Luo Shixin, the simple and honest Zhang Huaiwei, the fair and clean Zhang Shigui, Duan Zhigan and Bi Xin.
Luo Shixin was still dozens of steps away from Chen Ying, and Ashina Simo went up to meet him.The four eyes of the two, like cross-eyed chickens, collided in the air and sparked.
Looking at Ashina Simo's hand, Luo Shixin paused and said: "Humph, there is a kind of bow and arrow, yeah I will teach you how to be a man today!"
Ashina Simo retorted: "You have the guts to use your gun."
Luo Shixin jumped off his horse, stabbed his gun into the frozen snow, and an iron gun penetrated into the snow for about a foot.Luo Shixin yelled at Ashina Simo: "Come, come, come... Yeah, I can beat you with fists!"
Ashina Simo threw down his bow and arrow, and also threw himself at Luo Shixin with his bare hands.
Shan Xiong's confidence tightened, and he was about to step forward to help.
In Shan Xiong's belief, brothers are always brothers.Luo Shixin is his brother, but Ashina Simo is not, no matter how much Ashina Simo is Chen Ying's confidant, he can still be beaten.Big deal, I will go back and accept Chen Ying's punishment together with Luo Shixin.
Chen Ying stretched out his hand and pulled Shan Xiongxin's arm: "Don't worry, don't worry, this is their unique way of connecting feelings."
Sure enough, as Chen Ying said, no matter whether it was Zhang Huaiwei or Zhang Shigui, they were not nervous, and they all looked at the monkey show with arms folded.The worst thing was Duan Zhigan, who actually pulled a group of generals to bet beside him.
Luo Shixin and Ashina Simo have their own strengths, Ashina Simo is most proud of his riding skills, but Luo Shixin, a freak, not only is not weaker than Ashina Simo in riding skills, but relies on his own body His strength is not a loss, and he often abuses Ashina Simo in riding battles, but what Ashina Simo is really good at is his archery skills.
Among all the officers and soldiers of the East Palace, the left and right guards and the left and right siyu rate, I am afraid that no one can compare with them. Even Zhang Shigui's archery skills are good, but Zhang Shigui's archery skills are static shooting, or standing on the ground. The shooting rate is very high, but when riding and shooting on horseback, Zhang Shigui is far behind Ashina Simo.
But when it comes to boxing, Luo Shixin is not weaker than Ashina Simo, but Ashina Simo will be stronger, just like Li Kui was afraid of Yan Qing in "Water Margin", Yan Qing can easily defeat Li Kui.Similarly, as long as Ashina Simo catches Luo Shixin, Luo Shixin will definitely be thrown. Of course, if Luo Shixin is not caught, it will definitely be Ashina Simo who gets beaten.
