The world of film and television begins with the God of Medicine
#1376 - Step by step
On the flat ground, looking from afar, several miles apart, there were two sides defending their cities, with tens of thousands of troops stationed in camps.
During the distant confrontation, yellow sand was raised in the field, the sound of horse hooves shook the whole area, and shouts of killing were heard one after another.
“Kill!”
Cheng Yaojin was riding on his horse, not caring at all about the officers he was leading behind him, and he charged forward, wielding a huge axe in his hand. In front of the horrified eyes of the Goguryeo soldiers on the opposite side, he beheaded them with one axe.
"What a joy! What a joy! Haha!"
Cheng Yaojin roared and charged forward.
"Brother, brother, slow down, we can't keep up." You Junda followed Cheng Yaojin with a spear, helping to kill the Goguryeo people that Cheng Yaojin didn't care about.
"Old Cheng, let's see who kills more, haha!"
Wang Bodang was also wielding a spear, and was standing not far from Cheng Yaojin. He wielded the spear nimbly and powerfully, charging left and right, competing with Cheng Yaojin.
Xu Shiji, who looked a bit like an immortal, looked at the brave and reckless man charging forward, and silently followed the officer to pick up heads, being very cunning.
The heroes have their own styles, but they are not disorganized and undisciplined. After joining the army, the first thing they do is to memorize military regulations.
Not only Wang Yan was watching the fight, but also the law enforcement team. If they dared to act recklessly, they had no doubt that Wang Yan would chop them down without hesitation. In the past two months, they heard that Wang Yan had chopped down many people.
They did not follow their own team, but after they fought out, they consciously formed a military formation according to the training, attacking and defending at the same time. With their strong personal courage, they fought very fiercely. It was a bit like a special forces unit, very efficient.
As a result, the soldiers in their group were happily following them and picking up heads.
Wars meant death, so of course they were happy that they didn't have to fight in the front and could get some military credit. Even the junior officers who couldn't control these people just laughed and scolded them, without saying anything extra.
Because they know that these people are very strong, and they also know that the general values them very much, and they will definitely move up in the future.
On the other hand, the military merits of grassroots combat units must be reasonably distributed by grassroots officers. They must take into account those who have made great contributions and those who died in battle, so that everyone will not fight in vain and can benefit from it.
The more vicious the killing, the more credit the whole team gets, and the greater the benefits for the grassroots officers. Today, this group of people killed a lot of vicious people, and their merit progress bar for promotion has gone a long way, and they are still safe, so why would they care about this group of people not listening to their orders...
The heroes were very brave and the battle was over quickly. After just one round of head-on fighting, hundreds of Goguryeo soldiers were killed and only less than 30% were left. They fled in a panic following the sound of the Goguryeo retreat horn.
The bandits kept shouting and chasing for a mile until they saw the other side had sent troops to support them. Then they reined in their horses, loudly boasting about their bravery, and followed a group of other nameless soldiers back into the city.
Wang Yan personally welcomed them back victoriously and prepared some of his own strong liquor to celebrate for the soldiers.
"Brothers, let's celebrate the victory!" General Wang raised his glass high and saluted the soldiers who fought bravely.
"Drink to victory!"
"Change your thief habits. Don't these bowls cost money? If each of us breaks one, it's enough for the brothers to have a meal. You're such a spendthrift."
Wang Yan glared at him, then waved his hand, "Disband, coordinate the military merits and combat losses, promote those who deserve promotion, and ensure that those who deserve resettlement and pensions are in place. Go."
So a group of soldiers who had just won a victory dispersed happily, accounting for the military achievements of their respective teams, and angrily cursing the brothers who died in the battle for being unlucky.
Because in this battle, our side did not have many casualties, and even very few deaths, and not many serious injuries. As we all know, minor injuries are not considered injuries.
So those who died in battle can indeed be considered to have had a bad life, but in a war, people have to die, sooner or later.
The scale of future wars will be even larger, which is a blessing from another perspective...
In the following days, Wang Yan was stationed here. Without provocation from the other side, he would send people out to fight in turns, but the scale was not large, only small-scale group battles with more than a thousand people on both sides.
At the same time, Wang Yan's military orders were sent out one after another, and information was fed back one after another. All the departments had basically completed their preparations, and they were only waiting for the appointed time to take the initiative to attack and start a war between the two countries.
The friction here is still going on, people are killed every day, and people are promoted every day. The gang of bandits has become a squad leader per person, and those who are brave enough to charge like Cheng Yaojin have become deputy generals.
On the battlefield, their brilliance finally shone.
Wang Yan was very pleased. This group of people were quite useful. They all had destiny and were very brave. They were unstoppable in battle and could play a very important role.
Wang Yan believes that they will all grow up in this battle...
The fighting went on for twenty days. On the twenty-first day, other places had already launched attacks according to Wang Yan's military orders, but Peking was still very quiet.
This is the difficulty of ancient warfare. If communication is not instant, it will affect the commander's various judgments.
When the commander received the news and decided on the next step, he might have already completed the next step on a distant battlefield. He might have occupied their pass and penetrated into their hinterland.
This was just the news from one location. There were many other battles that took place simultaneously. The combined intelligence with inconsistent timing was all presented to the commander-in-chief.
How does the coach deploy his troops and deploy his troops?
The coach wants to die...
This is the situation that Goguryeo will face, but it is not what Wang Yan will face.
At daybreak, Wang Yan appeared on the low city wall again, while his soldiers were making tea and roasting dried meat.
After looking at the sky and estimating the time, Wang Yan waved his hand.
The next moment, a soldier on the city wall gathered his strength and blew the horn in front of him.
The sound of the horn spread slowly and far away. Gradually, more horn sounds joined in, forming a large sound.
On the defense line that stretched for dozens of miles, countless cavalrymen and armored soldiers rushed out and charged straight towards Goguryeo on the opposite side.
The sound of low drums rang out, becoming more and more frequent. The shouts of soldiers also became more frequent, and the sky and earth were filled with noise.
Wang Yan sat on the city wall, drinking tea, eating dried meat, and watching the fighting a few miles away.
The part he led personally was of course the main force, and the other armies, including the navy, also provided support to his army, pinning down the forces of Goguryeo and providing cover for his attack.
Of course, when the enemy is weak, they should be strong, and when the enemy is strong, they should be weak. The other routes are not limited to playing the roles of cover and support. When necessary, they can also transform into the main force and gather superior forces.
Adjustments to war are flexible, not static.
Goguryeo was indeed not weak and had made preparations to deal with the war. At the same time, it gave considerable respect to Wang Yan, the commander who had the title of invincible in the world.
But Wang Yan launched his attack too decisively.
After two months of deployment, they were on high alert to deal with any sudden attack from the Sui Dynasty. But for two months, Wang Yan did not launch an attack, but instead kept fighting with them in small groups.
Until Wang Yan returned to Beiping again, they maintained a happy friction for twenty days, but there was no big action. So the string that had been stretched for a long time, under hesitation, inevitably relaxed.
We have been rubbing peacefully and happily for twenty days. Even if we doubt that we can't rubbing peacefully for the twenty-first day, the certainty is greater than the doubt. This is the power of inertia.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
So on the 21st day, Goguryeo was unhappy...
The main battle led by Wang Yan did not start at dawn, but began earlier.
After nightfall yesterday, he had already sent troops to go around and block the enemy. He was determined to defeat all the 20,000 Goguryeo troops here and cause most casualties.
At the same time, he also sent several troops to penetrate deep into the enemy's rear, seize advantageous positions, destroy the connection between Goguryeo troops, attack logistics, and block Goguryeo's reinforcements.
This does not reflect Wang Yan's superb command ability, and it is not surprising in China's war history. It is just a routine start.
More importantly, we have to wait until the war begins to make arrangements, and only then can Wang Yan’s strength and terror in command be reflected.
The battle with Goguryeo thus began.
Wang Yan used a small number of troops to fight against the larger force of Goguryeo. The battle was back and forth. The back and forth was only on the surface. In fact, the overall battle line was constantly compressed to the north. Goguryeo was on the defensive as a whole.
This fact was unbearable for Goguryeo. The commanders and generals on the front line were particularly dissatisfied. They were played around by Wang Yan, and most of the various strategies and ambushes they came up with had no effect. Even if they succeeded, they would be quickly reversed. In many cases, they were taken advantage of by Wang Yan and resolved by fighting and eliminating.
After being beaten up with bruises all over their heads, they no longer thought that Wang Yan was awesome, otherwise wouldn't that be admitting that they were idiots? So they all tacitly looked for various reasons, just not admitting that they were bad, and kept asking for reinforcements.
Goguryeo has increased its troops. Wang Yan is originally at a disadvantage in terms of military strength. Since he is outnumbered, he naturally has to increase his troops accordingly.
So after less than two months of fighting, the strength of the two sides went from 100,000 to 200,000 to 170,000 to over 300,000. And this number was not the end, both sides continued to increase their troops, and the scale of the war continued to escalate and expand.
At this time, the logistical pressure has already risen. Even though Wang Yan has reformed the logistical supply and has the help of the navy, the troop force approaching 200,000 is also a challenge to the entire logistical system.
There were 200,000 soldiers and at least 400,000 people behind them doing logistics work. However, compared with the scale of Yang Guang's army of more than one million and more than two million logistics personnel, it was still dwarfed.
But even so, it is actually not easy to do so. The Sui Dynasty must have a very strong financial foundation.
But now is not the limit, maybe we have to mobilize 300,000 or 500,000 troops. After all, Goguryeo is not given for free, the population is small, but the military force is not small, maybe we can mobilize 700,000 or 800,000 troops, which is also considered to be capable of fighting.
If they can't fight, the King of Han led a team to do it once before, and it was also a battle involving hundreds of thousands of people. Doesn't that make the Sui Dynasty look useless?
The Sui Dynasty was also very capable of fighting. After all, it had fought wars all over the country, and its army had not been weakened...
It is true that Wang Yan can defeat a larger force with a smaller one, but more is more, and there is more room for the troops to disperse. He also has to be on guard against Goguryeo stealing his rear.
It doesn't matter if they are released after being stolen, but the main thing is that so many people from the border areas died, it's not worth it. Moreover, the people from the border areas are all serving in the war, regardless of whether they are men or women, they are all considered to have served as laborers and have been mobilized.
The people did not complain and still insisted on believing Wang Yan.
Of course, the more important reason was that Wang Yan had dispatched a fleet to deliver food directly from Bohai. Wang Yan said that he would manage it until the end of the war, and then exempt it from tax for three years.
However, the land here was not abandoned. The defenders in the rear had nothing to do and could not go out to participate in tasks such as escorting supplies. There were special transport troops, so Wang Yan directly mobilized them to help farm the land. The speed was quite fast and did not delay production too much.
The war continued until winter, when the intensity of the fighting decreased.
It was so cold that the weapons were frozen to my hands.
Although the Sui army was equipped with cotton-padded clothes, cotton-padded trousers, cotton-padded shoes, cotton-padded hats, and gloves, they would still be frozen after being outdoors for a long time. In addition, marching, labor, etc. would make them sweat easily and they would be susceptible to colds.
But in general, the Sui Dynasty had the upper hand. Although Goguryeo also had some cotton sold by the Sui Dynasty, it was never able to supply the troops. So in the winter, the Sui Dynasty successfully broke through Shanhaiguan and entered the Liaodong region. This was the key to the war. After all, it was well known that the gateway to the northeast was Shanhaiguan. Breaking through Shanhaiguan would be a smooth journey for both the north and the south.
Horses could be raced freely on the Liaodong Plain, and the Turkic cavalry, which had not been deployed for a long time, was now ready to go out on a large scale.
Wang Yan's side was steady and cautious, advancing step by step, and steadily achieving rich results. The express messengers who were sending news to Daxing were connected, with one piece of news a day.
Yang Guang and all the civil and military officials were satisfied with the results achieved by Wang Yan.
But at the same time, he was also worried, because if Wang Yan destroyed Goguryeo, he would definitely gather a large army to bring about another round of calamity against the great clans in the Central Plains.
This can be seen from the red glow on Yang Guang's face. The harder Wang Yan hits, the stiffer Yang Guang becomes.
In this regard, the great families in the Central Plains had a full understanding of it, just as Wang Yan thought...
They did not disappoint Wang Yan's expectations...
I would like to thank the good brothers who give rewards, vote for monthly tickets, recommend tickets, and read books silently for their strong support!
