Chapter 2349 The Transmission of Tactics
Although there is a saying that you are not embarrassed, only others are embarrassed, but when you really want to put this sentence into practice, it is often not that easy.
Take Liu Shao for example.
Normally, when Liu Shao arrived in Xu County, he naturally needed to return his orders to the emperor. After all, he went to Chang'an to recruit Zheng Xuan on behalf of the emperor Liu Xie. No matter what the outcome of this matter was, he needed to explain it, but Liu Shao was very embarrassed now.
Because he came back to life, but he couldn't bring Xi Lu with him, he could only come by himself...
The reason given seems to be one thing, but it is not the same thing.
What's even more troublesome is that after being reminded by his friend Yu Yi, Liu Shao knew that there were some things he couldn't say, so he became even more embarrassed when facing the emperor Liu Xie.
"So... Aiqing just brought this..." Emperor Liu Xie glanced sideways at the so-called five-element and five-color cakes, "Come to return to life?" 』Five elements and five colors of cakes? With a few more colors, it’s still pastry! When I was a child, I could fool myself with a plate of pastries. Is that what you meant?
Liu Shao buried his head deeply on the floor, "I am... stupid and incompetent, please forgive me..."
The Emperor Liu Xie frowned, "That's fine... I support the whole world, and the whole world is Han, and I don't ask for any gold or silver utensils... But when I asked your beloved about Chang'an matters, the customs, and customs, I didn't know anything about it... What on earth was Aiqing doing when he was living in Chang'an? 』
"I live in the post office and never go out..." Liu Shao kowtowed, "I am... stupid and incompetent, please forgive me..."
"..." Emperor Liu Xie took a breath and managed to hold back his anger, "Is Aiqing in the post every day?" Never left the house? 』
"...It's true..." Liu Shao still didn't dare to raise his head, "If your Majesty wants to know the situation in Chang'an, just ask Xi Liu and Xi Hongyu..."
"Haha...haha..." Liu Xie couldn't help laughing.
Laughing in anger.
"Stand back!" Liu Xie turned his head, not wanting to take another look at Liu Shao.
Liu Shao banged his head on the floor a few more times, then stuck his butt out and backed away.
In the main hall, light and shadow are divided.
Liu Xie's eyes stayed in the cut lights, and then looked at the fine flying dust flying under the light. He slowly changed from a sneer to a sigh, and then after a while, it turned into grinding his teeth. sound……
……彡(-_-;)彡……
In the Han Dynasty, knowledge was very precious.
People initially respected knowledge very much, and along with it, they also respected those who had mastered knowledge.
So in the Han Dynasty, did those people master knowledge or relevant information?
It must be these noble officials.
Another example is Xi Liu.
If Xi Lu's identity is replaced by a common term in later generations, then Xi Lu represents a part of the public intellectuals in the current society of the Han Dynasty. He is responsible for sharing this knowledge, and of course some information, with those who need it, but in the process of sharing, he encountered some problems.
When Liu Xie wants to see Xi Liu, he doesn't mean he wants to see him, but he can see him at any time. There must be a process.
After all, no one can guarantee whether Xi Gu has malicious intentions and is ready to do something bad like Jing Ke, right? The necessary procedures still need to be completed, and the process still needs to be completed. In the end, it will take a joint review by Guangxi...er, Shangshutai, Shaofu and Zhijinwu to finally determine when Xi Liu will meet the emperor Liu Xie.
This reason is very legitimate, but no matter how legitimate the reason is, it is just a reason.
Normally, people want to obtain real knowledge rather than false information.
But this is more difficult.
Among the big men, if ordinary people speak inappropriately, at least a three-digit slate will come down, or at worst, someone will immediately follow the clues and check the household registration to see if there is a vehicle and boat tax, a wormwood tax, etc. Pay the amount on time...
But a very interesting question is that some people can say some bastard things over and over again. They are so bastard that even ordinary people understand that they are bastards. But there is not necessarily any problem. These people can still say it. Wandering around outside, I won't be invited to drink tea. I'll just be out there every three days.
And some people are subject to censorship all the time, and those who have even the slightest connection will be banned.
Just like now, if Xi Lu wants to see the emperor, he must first see Xun Yu. Then Xi Lu discovered that when he arrived at the Chancellery, he did not see Xun Yu. Instead, he was taken to a side room, where a serious-faced and thin old official was waiting for him. The purpose is actually very simple, just to ensure that Xi Lu will not "say" something wrong or "do something wrong" when he meets the emperor.
Of course Xun Yu didn't participate in things like this. He just sent one of his officials to make a confession with Xi Liu, uh, just have a conversation...
"I heard that the Xiqiang rebellion has made the people of Longxi and Longyou miserable? 』
"This..." Xi Lu raised his eyebrows, "It has calmed down." 』
"Recovered?" Have you seen it with your own eyes? ” asked the old official.
"This..." Xi Lu blinked twice, "Never." 』
"Since you have never seen it with your own eyes, how can you conclude that the Qiang in Longxi and Longyouxi have been pacified?" 』
"Hmm...ah..." Xi Su understood something, nodded and said, "So...the Xiqiang rebellion may not have been decided yet...well, it has not been decided yet..."
"good. Hearing that there is chaos in Hanzhong, Sichuan and Shu are uneasy? ” the old official asked again.
Xi Lu was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly hesitantly, "There is chaos in Hanzhong, Sichuan and Sichuan... maybe..."
"Since there is chaos in Hanzhong, how can Sichuan and Shu be stabilized?" Could it be that Sichuan and Shu can cross the natural chasm and reach Sanfu without passing through Hanzhong? 』
"Sichuan and Shu are also in chaos. ” Xi Lu said with a frown.
"good. After hearing that the Hussar wantonly massacred the big families in Sanfu, Hedong, and Longxi, he banned the sons of the gentry in Sanfu, Hedong and other places from pursuing official careers..."
Xi Lu frowned and remained silent without responding.
The official was not anxious about the confession and still stared at Xi Su without moving his eyes.
"I want to see Mr. Xun Ling!" ” Xi Lu said in a deep voice.
The old official seemed to have not heard what Xi Lu said at all, and said directly: "Xi Lu and Xi Hongyu traveled a long distance and worked hard all the way. They accidentally felt the wind and cold, so..."
"Wait a minute!" Xi Lu stretched out a hand and said, "What are you going to say and what are you going to do? Why don't you tell me directly?" 』
The old official was silent for a moment, and then said, "I heard that the Hussar wantonly slaughtered the big families in Sanfu, Hedong, and Longxi, and banned the sons of the gentry in Sanfu, Hedong and other places from pursuing official careers. Therefore, you can't bear the humiliation. Will you return to Xudu?" This matter? 』
"..." Xi Lu took a long breath, "It is true. 』
"good. I heard that the people of Hussar had many taxes and heavy labor, so they often fled. I wonder if this could be the case? 』
"...It is indeed true. 』
"good……"
……(;¬_¬)(╯︵╰)……
In the fifth year of Taixing, winter.
The city walls of Shangyong are simple and can even be said to be a bit old.
On the official roads around the city, Zhang's soldiers escorted carts back and forth. In addition, there are no more idle refugees on the road. Most of the "rioters" have been arrested at this time. Officials in various places prohibit good people from going out. If anyone is discovered outside, they will either be arrested or killed on the spot.
Because of Wei Yan's movement in the Hanzhong area, Shangyong's defenders were very uneasy and even suspected that the surrounding villages and counties had secretly had some contact with Wei Yan. Originally, the Han Dynasty was relatively loose with the counties. The structure makes the Zhang family in Shangyong City have almost zero control over the local area. Under normal circumstances, it is not a big problem. After all, as long as taxes are paid on time, it is fine. But now, the shortcomings in this area make The Zhang family in Shangyong City was restless.
In the past two days, more and more people have become soldiers, and even the Zhang family in Shangyong City has become even more crazy. Some innocent people have been treated as spies, and some people have been framed and killed directly, with their heads hanging on the On the top of the city, corpses were discarded in the wilderness outside the city. Some of them were gradually putrefying and torn apart by unknown wild beasts, lying in pieces here and there...
Shangyong, like most Han towns, has a big city in the center, and is surrounded by fields and roads. Then, along the intersection of rivers and roads, villages, counties and townships are formed. Then from Shangyong to Fangling, extending for about a hundred miles, we are close to the mountains and fields.
Lijiazhuang is considered to be the most marginal village in Shangyong.
In order to implement General Shangyong's strategy of strengthening the walls and clearing the country, clinging to the local area, and urging the concentration of the population, the transfer of supplies has become the most important task for Lijiazhuang at the moment.
No matter how reasonable the military clearing work is, it is like a disaster to ordinary people. No one wants to leave their accustomed home and the land they have cultivated for many years, so the order is naturally issued at the beginning. was resisted.
But military orders are military orders. When the military princes who were sent here to carry out the orders saw the procrastinating Lijiazhuang, they naturally ordered their soldiers to strengthen their supervision. Of course, this method of supervision was more vigorous whipping and drinking. scold.
The sky is very gloomy.
Dark clouds obscured the sun, and a cold wind blew through.
The sound of beatings and curses mixed with people's cries and cries of pain can, to a certain extent, be regarded as a result of the work, and will make those responsible for supervising and supervising have a feeling of "everyone else is a fish." They may even feel a special sense of pleasure because of this, even if this behavior does not directly benefit them much.
The military prince responsible for carrying out this work just wanted to complete it as soon as possible and then return to the relatively "safer" Shangyong City as soon as possible. As for whether there was any damage to Lijiazhuang during the process of clearing the country, and whether the personnel would Death because of this, sorry, this is not within the scope of his consideration.
The situation in Hanzhong is becoming increasingly severe. The original "reinforcements" have disappeared one by one...
Just like Yuan Shu back then, when his power was at its strongest, he seemed to be the Baba of everyone. From south to north, from east to west, everyone seemed to be Yuan Shu's people. They were all sincere when asking for money to call Baba. When things get serious, he becomes a grand thief.
A relatively complex political issue like this was beyond the ability of a small military prince to understand. He just hoped to complete it as soon as possible and then return quickly, but his hope was quickly dashed.
The centurions, who were obviously the vanguard, appeared on the hillside outside Lijiazhuang. The warning sounded harshly in Lijiazhuang. The military prince, whose face suddenly turned pale, stared at the soldiers on the hillside in the distance. tricolor flag…
What appeared here in Lijiazhuang was the lightly-armed Zhu Ling cavalry unit from Wancheng.
Zhu Ling had experience in long-distance raids, and he was also quick-witted. He had learned a lot from Tai Shici. Moreover, these cavalrymen were not new recruits, and some of them were soldiers who had previously attacked Xu County. , stayed in Wancheng to recuperate due to injury, and now he has returned to the team. After experiencing the test of life and death, it is like a steel knife that has been tempered, becoming tougher and sharper.
The biggest difference between the conscription system adopted by Fei Qian and the general garrison system of the Han Dynasty is that one is active participation and the other is passive helplessness. In the Han Dynasty, one kind of military service was to serve as a "guard" in the central government, one was to serve as a "garrison" in the border counties, and the other was to serve in the original place. However, no matter which kind, it was a passive response, and it is difficult to say that it was proactive. idea.
But the recruitment system is different. Especially after Fei Qian focused on increasing military pay, equipment, and the award of military merits, serving as a soldier has even become a new way out for poor people. Efforts to gain merit in battle can even change the entire original poverty situation. The class status of the family!
Most of the ordinary soldiers in the hussar army are extremely identified with, worship the hussar, and are eager to fight. Therefore, in terms of combat effectiveness and morale, they are far beyond the ordinary soldiers of the ordinary Han Dynasty.
Therefore, when they encountered Zhang's troops from Lijiazhuang, Zhu Ling led two forward teams, Mao San, and Hou Wu decided on their strategy almost in the blink of an eye...
"My plan is that we split into two sides and go straight to kill them. We don't have to kill many, we don't have to stop, and we don't care about the warnings. We just rush in. Well, that's it. 』
Mao San made imaginary gestures on the left and right sides of Lijiazhuang with his hands, as if he was slashing on both sides with a knife.
Although when Mao San told about his plan, it even seemed a bit like a cold joke, because in fact, strictly speaking, it didn't look like a plan at all, but Hou Wu on the other side nodded seriously, as if he heard it A good plan with clear steps and a reasonable structure says, "Okay, I agree, I'm responsible for the left side!" 』
They thought this matter was very serious and there was nothing funny about it, because both of them were trying their best to imitate the words and deeds of the higher-level military generals, just like Zhu Ling imitating Taishi Ci...
"action! Mao San nodded, then whistled and went to the right.
"Set off! drive! A team is coming with a certain person! ” Hou Wu also greeted the other team and started to move to the left.
The two teams separated, and the sound of horses' hooves gradually increased in speed, and then faster and faster.
On the outside of Lijiazhuang, there were still some chaotic Zhang soldiers who were rushing into the village. However, they were only halfway through when they heard the sound of horse hooves rolling in. They were so frightened that they started crying for their fathers and screamed for their mothers. They even rolled around and abandoned their helmets. A ran to the village, but there was no time...
Mao San roared and quickly closed the distance. Zhang's soldiers who were lagging behind turned around and tried to slash at Mao San with their swords. However, they were slapped obliquely by the shield in Mao San's hand, like hitting a tennis ball. , knocking him out diagonally with the knife and the man, and smashed him to the ground. Before he could struggle to get up, the horse's hooves as big as a bowl had already fallen in the air!
The team outside Lijiazhuang was annihilated almost instantly, but the hooves of Mao San and Hou Wu did not pause at all. The front of the troops extended, and some of the cavalry on horseback put away their swords and guns, took out their crossbows, and fired at the Zhang soldiers who were hiding in sight.
Two rolling torrents poured into the village from the left and right sides of Lijiazhuang. Under the churning of the horses' hooves, the thick plasma and yellow dust were combined together. Some Zhang's soldiers who tried to resist were cut open by swords and killed. The horse's hooves trampled it, and it collapsed immediately.
A group of people with shabby clothes, even some tattered clothes, stopped and looked back in the direction of Lijiazhuang. They thought at first that their home was finally destroyed by these people and was about to be burned down, but they soon discovered that it was not. It's not like this. Those extremely ferocious Zhang's soldiers ran away in panic. The broken soldiers fled from outside the village to inside the village, and then quickly ran from inside to outside the village. They were overtaken by the cavalry and chopped down in the withered fields, like It is as simple as a farmer cutting down the crops.
Immediately, the cavalrymen rushed towards this side without any pause, carrying blood and murderous intent. Although the number was not large, they were like hundreds of thousands, frightening the surrounding people who were urging Lijiazhuang to be whipped. The soldiers of Zhang's family who were migrating to the common people were so distraught that they howled and fled in all directions...
A military prince, the small one is divided into two camps on the left and right, with 200 people, the larger one is divided into five camps, left, right, front and center, five hundred people, and the military marquis who came to Lijiazhuang is considered a medium-sized establishment, with about 300 people, while Mao Sanhe Hou Wu is just the team leader, one team is fifty. Although cavalry has an advantage over infantry when the infantry has not formed a successful formation, Zhang's army, which collapsed almost instantly, has indeed shown the gap in morale and training even though the equipment is similar. It will also cause a huge gap in the combat effectiveness of the soldiers.
If you raise your sight to the sky, you will see that at this time, east of Shangyong City, these cavalrymen holding high the three-color flag are pushing out a bloody road, with beacon fire, galloping horses, rout, and blood. Like waves, like fire on the grassland, rolling, devouring, burning, surging towards Shangyong City.
And outside Shangyong City, there are even many queues going to carry out the task of strengthening the walls and clearing the country. They have not yet received the order to return to the city or received the warning message...
This rapid attack state is part of Taishi Ci's key to commanding the cavalry.
It also became the cavalry knowledge passed down to Zhu Ling...
Unmoving like a mountain, aggressive like fire!
