The strongest Marquis in history

Wang Qi was confident in this battle, and he didn't feel how difficult it was to attack Goguryeo. However, Wang Qi would not despise this battle, because fighting in war can be despised tactically, but not strategically.

Wang Qi glanced at Zhou Zishan and the others, and said: "The news we just got is that Goguryeo has set up three lines of defense right now. The first line of defense is the Datong River when we step into Goguryeo."

"According to the previous news, we are going to Goguryeo. After leaving Liaodong County, we have to cross the Datong River, then go south to Caoshan Pass, and finally pass Yongding City. Then we can go smoothly. So now, our first priority, That is to attack the Datong River and destroy the Goguryeo forces on the other side of the Datong River."

"As long as the opponent is destroyed, everything will be easy."

"This battle, on the whole, will not have too many problems, but the specific strategy still needs to be properly arranged. Tell me, how should we deal with this battle?"

Wang Qi's words seemed very relaxed.

After all, war is not difficult.

Zhou Zishan said in a calm manner: "Your Majesty, the shelling range of our mortars is at least seven or eight hundred paces. Under this premise, it is completely possible to discover the Koguryo troops who have set up a defense line on the other side of the river. Then, we crossed by ferry. In addition, we actually have an army that can be mobilized for this battle."

Wang Qi asked, "Which army?"

Zhou Zishan's eyes were sharp, and he said: "Scheduling a part of the navy to go north, although Wei Xun led the main force of the navy, and even most of the force, went to Japan to sit in the country. However, a batch of warships can also be dispatched for us to spend the time in Datong. River."

Zhuge Feng shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, I do have a different opinion. There is no need to transfer the navy. The reason is very simple. The transfer of the navy takes too much time. But now we have already taken advantage. Datong River , as long as the cannon suppresses the opponent, it is enough to cross the river easily, why bother to dispatch the navy?"

Zhou Zishan thought for a while, and said: "Minister Zhuge's words also have some truth. The navy can not be mobilized. Mobilization is naturally the best. Of course, it will not have any impact."

Wang Qi said: "Then there is no need to transfer."

With a slight smile on Zhugefeng's face, he continued: "So I think that in this battle, we will use cannons to kill directly. First cross the Datong River, then the next step is Caoshan Pass, and the next step is Yongding City. Use a large number of artillery shells to bomb them one after another. I believe that we will definitely be able to kill them in this battle, and there will be no major problems."

Wang Qi said: "It's feasible."

Zhou Zishan added: "I have no objection to Minister Zhuge's proposal. However, we still need to learn more about the intelligence investigation, and understand it in more detail."

Wang Qidao: "Zi Shan's suggestion is reasonable, let's do it like this now."

"Yes!"

Zhou Zishan and Zhuge Feng answered together.

Xiao Qingzhi and Nie Feng heard that they already knew what to do next, they only needed to send out the soldiers responsible for the investigation, the battle would naturally go smoothly, and there would be no difficulties.

Just after the matter was agreed upon, another soldier came quickly from the rear and reported: "Your Majesty, there is a new weapon telescope sent by the Academy of Science and Technology of the Ministry of Industry. Please check it."

As soon as the soldier waved his hand, someone came carrying a box.

Wang Qi looked overjoyed and hurried over.

The telescope is finally out.

The last time there was a war with the Haixi Empire, Wang Qi felt that there should be a telescope.At that time, Wang Qi's plan was to let the Ministry of Industry led by Mo Liu be responsible for the development after returning to Chang'an.

After all, Wang Qi is very clear about the situation of the telescope. He only needs to write down the information and let the Academy of Science and Technology study it accordingly.It's just that Wang Qi had to go north after destroying the Haixi Empire, and he didn't have time to return to Chang'an for the time being, so he directly arranged for someone to send back the telescope's information at an expedited speed of [-] miles. He wrote it all.

Unexpectedly, it didn't take long before the telescope was developed.

On the battlefield, this is an extremely powerful auxiliary tool.

Its value is immeasurable.

Wang Qi picked up a telescope and said with a smile: "Brother, Zishan, this telescope is a good thing. Come on, each of you take a telescope and take a look at the distance. The scene seven or eight hundred steps away, or even more than 1000 steps away, can be seen clearly."

"what!"

Zhou Zishan and Zhuge Feng were both surprised.

The two felt extremely shocked.

How is it possible to see clearly a thousand steps away?

This is clairvoyance.

Wang Qidao: "Look at it and you will know it. Now, we have to contend with the Haixi Empire. If we don't even have such a basic weapon, how will we fight in the future? With such a weapon, it will be easier to fight in the future , able to anticipate the enemy's opportunity."

Both Zhou Zishan and Zhuge Feng nodded in unison. They both picked up their binoculars and stopped to observe the situation in the distance with the help of binoculars.

The two observed with the help of binoculars, looked at it once, then took off the binoculars and observed with the naked eye.But after this observation, the two asked people to actually measure it.

One thousand three hundred steps!

This telescope can see the scene [-] steps away.

When Zhou Zishan heard the news of the report, he was shocked because the distance was too far.

Zhou Zishan was shocked: "Your Majesty, is this true?"

Zhuge Feng said: "It is indeed unbelievable. Even a warrior can use his own power to fly over walls. But with the help of a small object, he can see the scene [-] steps away. It is really unbelievable."

Wang Qidao: "This is the power of science and technology. It can make ordinary people use tyrannical power. For example, rifles and cannons are also the power of science and technology. Before these weapons, the Grand Master would be invincible. But with rifles , Da Pao, even if you are a grand master, you have to drink hatred, and you can't stop it."

Zhuge Feng said: "It is indeed not easy, especially with the telescope, then when our soldiers cross the river and attack the city, this command can be carried out from the rear."

Zhou Zishan said: "Your Majesty, this thing is the icing on the cake for our army."

Wang Qi also nodded.

He called Xiao Qingzhi and Nie Feng directly, and arranged the binoculars according to the ranks of the generals, from high to low, to ensure that all levels of generals could get the binoculars.

After everything was arranged, the team continued on their way.

The army marched in the direction of the Datong River.

Chapter 875 Inspiring the Army

Datong River, South Bank Ferry.

In the area two hundred steps away from the shore of the ferry, a solid line of defense was built.

This line of defense stretched for nearly two miles, across the area where the Datong River went south after crossing the river.Stacks of sandbags are built to hold batches of soldiers.As long as the soldiers entered, they could hide inside and shoot with the help of rifles.

This time, the number of soldiers sitting on the south bank of the Datong River was more than [-] elite soldiers.All are the elite of Goguryeo, and they are all used to shooting with rifles.

The general in charge of this group of troops was named Jin Zaishan.

The Jin family is in Goguryeo, and it is also a big family.

Jin Zaishan, the generation of the Jin family, is the face of the military. In Koguryo, he has always been known for his daring to fight and kill.In addition, Jin Zaishan was also a disciple of the Goguryeo general Eulji Wenxiong.

Therefore, Jin Zaishan can go north as the main general.

Jin Zaishan is very clear about one thing. This time he led the army to the north to stop the attack, there is a great risk.However, if the army of Qi State is blocked here in the Datong River, then he will become famous all over the world and become a famous general of Goguryeo.

In the future, it is foreseeable that he will succeed Ulji Fumung.

So Jin Zaishan knew that Qi State was tyrannical, so he came to fight to the death.

Jin Zaishan, in Goguryeo, has always been called a wolf general, that is, he uses military methods, like a wolf, very ruthless, does things regardless of all costs, and is even more vicious, just like a wolf.

Jin Zaishan is a man who is desperate when he uses troops.

What Jin Zaishan has always regretted is that he was born late. If in the past, when Goguryeo and Dazhou went to war, he could follow his teacher to fight, and he would have been able to show his ambitions. People come to kill.

In the South Bank barracks at the moment.

Jin Zaishan is dealing with government affairs.

The matters he dealt with involved all aspects of the army, some involved food, some involved soldiers' salaries, and there were many conflicts between soldiers. Jin Zaishan took care of all aspects.

What does the combat effectiveness of the army depend on?

Rely on army meals.

It also depends on military pay.

In addition, it also depends on Jin Zaishan's ideological control over the soldiers.He led troops to fight, not only to make the soldiers have enough fighting spirit, but also to let the soldiers in the army fight desperately spontaneously and willingly.

This is the reason why Jin Zaishan repeatedly attacked foreign enemies in Goguryeo and wiped out the small countries on the Liaodong Peninsula. He was able to win many battles.

This is his foundation.

While Jin Zaishan was busy dealing with government affairs, a soldier came in and reported: "General, the soldiers' salary sent by the imperial court has arrived. When do you think the soldier's salary will be distributed?"

Jin Zaishan said: "Go to Cui Fusheng and ask him to arrange it immediately. All the soldiers' salaries will be paid in the shortest possible time."

"Yes!"

The soldiers were ordered to turn around and retreat.

Regarding the issue of military pay, Jin Zaishan used to specialize in establishing his prestige.

Originally, this time Jin Zaishan led his troops to the north, and there was a general in the army who was responsible for distributing food and soldiers' pay, Pu Yishi. He and Pu Yisheng, the King of Goguryeo, were of the same generation and belonged to the royal family.

The reason why Park Yishi was asked to be responsible was that Pu Yisheng was worried about the problem of food and grass, so he specifically asked Park Yishi to be responsible.Unexpectedly, Pu Yishi actually knew the law and broke the law. He was greedy for military pay and withheld food.

When Jin Zaishan learned of this, he was furious and killed Pu Yishi directly with his sword.

Then, he wrote a letter to Park Yisheng to plead guilty.

This incident spread in the army, and all the soldiers supported Jin Zaishan even more.As for the Goguryeo court, Pu Yisheng did not leave Jin Zaishan, but instead praised him, and then asked Jin Zaishan to arrange the army's rations and salaries.

Since then, no one dared to falsify the distribution of rations and salaries to Jin Zaishan's army.

Once found, it will be killed.

No one dares to play wild on the tiger's head.

Jin Zaishan continued to deal with government affairs. By evening, he had already walked out of the camp, and went directly to the kitchen where the cooking pots were buried to supervise the food in the kitchen.

When the soldiers started to eat, Jin Zaishan also ate with the soldiers, nothing special.

This is the norm in the military.

It is also the reason why Jin Zaishan can be supported by soldiers.

His board and lodging are not particular.

Even if the soldiers have any family difficulties and training problems, Jin Zaishan will go around the army every night when he patrols the night, and he will specialize in understanding and solve the problems for the soldiers.

Jin Zaishan trusted the soldiers in the details, so he used troops to do what he ordered.

Jin Zaishan had dinner in the evening, made a tour, and then returned to his tent.

He had just read the book for a while, when another soldier hurried in.The soldier's face was a little nervous, and he clasped his fists and said, "General, I just got the news that the army of Qi State is already heading towards the Datong River. It is estimated that in a little more than a day, the army of Qi State will be there Arrived. In addition, this time Qi State is led by the Qi State Emperor Wang Qi himself, and he has a total of [-] elite soldiers under his command, which is very powerful."

Jin Zaishan waved his hand and said, "Understood, let's investigate again."

"Yes!"

The soldier turned and retreated.

The expression on Jin Zaishan's face was very serious.

coming!

It's finally here!

However, in Jin Zaishan's eyes, there was no look of fear, only anticipation and excitement.

When Qi's army came, he was not afraid.

Even, he wants to fight.

How can a fierce general on the battlefield become a famous general if he doesn't have a bit of ruthlessness and means?Now that the enemy is coming, this is precisely the perfect opportunity for Jin Zaishan to make contributions.

Jin Zaishan thought carefully about the countermeasures in his heart.After pondering for a long time, his inner emotions stabilized and his thinking became clear, so he ordered: "Come here."

A soldier enters, bowing and saluting.

Jin Zaishan said: "Immediately order everyone to gather in the school grounds."

"Yes!"

The soldiers went directly to deliver the order.

In the camp, the horn soon sounded, which was an order to summon the soldiers to gather.

Accompanied by the gathering of soldiers, groups of soldiers stood in formation.In the entire school grounds, under the light of burning torches, the troops lined up neatly, exuding a murderous aura.

When everyone was waiting in full force, Jin Zaishan was wearing armor, with a sword hanging from his waist, and strode forward with a solemn expression.He stood at the forefront, looking at all the elite soldiers in the army, his eyes passing one by one.

In the camp, there were still noisy discussions.

Even if the voice of each soldier is very small, because of the large number of people, even the small voice of each soldier's discussion is still buzzing and constantly echoing in the air.

"quiet!"

With a cry, everyone stopped talking.
