Warrior in Turbulent Han Dynasty
Chapter 129: Huge Camel
"Qi Tuo" Qi Tingyi is very sad to go to Hujie Army to be the captain of the left wing (du school is the common name of the commander of the capital, which means a general of the rank of commander of the capital). He will soon find out that the left side is the basic board of Guo Shao on the upper peak, and all important positions have been replaced. Qi Tuo will become a commander when he arrives;
However, Guo Shao was afraid that after driving "Qi Tuo" into a hurry, he would make a small report and accuse him of forming a clique at Xiaoshantou. So he told his generals in many ways, and it was strictly forbidden for the generals of the Forbidden Army to call "Lord".
But Guo Shao soon realized that he was worrying too much.
As soon as Qi Tingyi reported to the left wing, he saw the atmosphere in the big tent, and without saying a word, he said that "only Marshal Guo is the leader", without any position.
I saw that everyone was tall and strong, taller and stronger than anyone else. The generals standing in the tent are all tall and fierce men, but they are not as good as Qi Tuo... For a moment, Guo Shao thought of Shi Yanchao. But Qi Tuo is completely different from Shi Yanchao, he has no murderous intent.
Shi Yanchao's eyes can make people very stressed and unfriendly. Qi Tuo's face and expression are not scary at first glance.
Later, a general who knew Qi Tingyi joked in front of Guo Shao, and finally let him know the origin of the nickname "Qi Tuo": it was originally called Qi Tuo, but the sound of the last two characters was the same, which was a bit lighter. Later, military generals often called Qi Tuo.
A camel is taller than a horse, but it can neither run fast nor ferocious. It is just right for Qi Tingyi... because this guy is like a camel, taller than anyone else, with a huge body, but it is useless. There is absolutely no strategy in doing things in war. When an enemy soldier beats him up or tells him to attack, he only gets angry when he is in a hurry. Do your duty as a human being, don't fight with anyone for anything, and want to avoid tolerance in internal fighting. Perhaps, rare confusion is also a kind of wisdom.
...
The siege battle gradually began, but Guo Shao did not order the army to attack, but guarded the city to repair the fortifications and smashed the walls with catapults. He also ordered the township soldiers to push the trenches and earth-rammed walls to the edge of the moat, and carry earth and rocks to fill the moat.
Gunpowder cannot be used in the siege this time, because Li Gu will not be able to get so much saltpeter for a while; besides, there must be embankments in Haozhou this time, and I am afraid it will not be easy to use.
The crops that had been harvested outside the city were trampled into solid land, some houses were also demolished, and countless siege machines squeaked. Guo Shao rode his horse around the city wall to look around.
After the capture of Shouzhou, the emperor seemed to think that Guo Shao was a specialist in city siege, and let him go as soon as he sieged the city. In fact, Guo Shao really wanted to say: The last thing I want to do is attack a city.
There was a commotion on the battlefield. A group of people rode horses to the east of the city. Guo Shao suddenly found that there was a word "Lu" on the military flag.
Guo Shao turned his head and said to Li Chuyun: "According to Zhou Duan, Lu Mengjun has no morale in the army. Our army broke through the city, and this is the breakthrough!"
The general said: "I heard that Lu Mengjun is still very fierce in battle."
Guo Shao said with a smile: "The gangsters who fight fiercely and bully the weak on the street, let them go to the battlefield to exchange their lives with their opponents, what do you think will happen?"
The general couldn't answer, and didn't understand what Guo Shao said.
They turned around and then made a detour back to the Chinese army. At this time, it was suddenly reported that Han Tong defeated the Southern Tang Navy in the north of the city and burned more than 70 warships!
When the generals heard the news, they gathered in the big tent of the Chinese army one after another, competing to celebrate. Qi Tuo and Han Tong's successive battles and victories outside Haozhou City have gradually eliminated the enemies outside the city.
But Guo Shao was sitting on the upper seat and was silent. Everyone was surprised and asked why... Could it be that Marshal Guo was not happy that Han Tong had won? I haven't heard of any feud between Guo Shao and Han Tong. But that Han Tong is really difficult to get along with, known as "Han Baiyan", he has a bad temper and a straight temper, whoever said that he offended him, it is nothing more than a normal thing.
"Send someone to congratulate Han Tong first." Guo Shaodao stood up and said, "You can celebrate as you like, don't worry about me. Let me think about it."
Guo Shao lowered his head and thought about something, then walked out of the tent. After a while, he suddenly turned around and said, "Get the bow and arrow!"
All the generals saw that he suddenly had a good mood, and they all went out of their tents to watch him shoot arrows. There happened to be a row of grass figurine wooden plank arrow targets for practice outside the camp of the Chinese Army. Guo Shao took the bow and arrow and looked at a pair of targets a hundred steps away.
"A while ago, I told you that the best thing I do is archery. This is not a false statement, let's see how I can hit a target that is a hundred paces away." Guo Shao said.
He drew up the bow, and suddenly put it down again. Seeing everyone's puzzled faces when he turned around, he stretched out the back of his hand to test the wind, and said, "Wait a minute, the wind direction is not right."
Li Chuyun is also good at archery, and after listening to it, he echoed: "Usually you can only shoot from a hundred steps away, and it is not easy to shoot. The farther the distance is, the more important the wind direction is. Archery really depends on the wind... the wind is the best."
Guo Shao said indifferently: "The flatlands in the northwest have won a great victory. Today, Han Tong burned down more than 70 naval ships of the Southern Tang Army. The wind direction is very favorable."
The generals will be thoughtful after listening.
At this time, Guo Shao pulled the bowstring again, aiming at the bull's-eye and keeping it in mid-air. "Crack!" Suddenly there was a sound of strings, and when everyone looked up, they really hit the bull's-eye a hundred steps away!
Everyone applauded for a while, and Guo Shao also laughed and said: "I haven't practiced much during this period, but I haven't lost my archery yet."
Of course, archery on the battlefield is more difficult than shooting a target. If the opponent is wearing thick armor and is far away, what damage can shooting random arrows at him do?
Guo Shao closed his eyes slightly, remembering the arrow that made him famous in the first place, killing Zhang Yuanhui, the number one general of the Northern Han Dynasty! I'm afraid that event will be hard to forget in this life, just like first love, every tiny memory is hidden in my heart. On the chaotic battlefield, at that moment, he actually found the perfect feeling.
Follow the wind, feel the opponent's ups and downs, and find the position that kills with one blow. At a certain moment, the opportunity is fleeting, and you must use all your strength to let go of the bowstring without hesitation! If you miss it once, you may never find that opportunity again.
The direction of the wind is the general trend, those who follow it prosper and those who go against it perish! The Tang army in Haozhou was defeated again and again. This is the general trend.
The target is the opponent's weakness and weakness, it may be very small, but only from there can the shot not hit the thick armor. Lu Mengjun, this person is Haozhou's weakness.
The strength must be enough. If you hit it all at once and you don't die, will he let you take a good look at it and shoot the second arrow? Guo Shao felt that he had to attack suddenly, and he had to use all his strength and sharp knives in the first wave. He must not fall into exhaustion and give the opponent a chance to recover.
"Attack across the board in three days, attacking Haozhou!" Guo Shao turned his head and said firmly.
Everyone was taken aback, but no one made any comments. The left wing of the Hu Jie Army has already shuffled the cards, and no one in the upper ranks will oppose for the sake of opposition, unless someone speaks... But Guo Shao's tone is not asking anyone, but making a decision, and it is meaningless to speak.
Maybe some generals will feel a little hasty in their hearts, because Haozhou has not really attacked the city yet, and they will attack it as soon as they come?
But Guo Shao didn't think he was sloppy, of course he didn't think carefully, he only believed in his intuition!
Guo Shao will never forget what the martial arts instructor said: Thinking too much is not necessarily a good thing. Although this sentence was not said to "him", it was just a memory; but Guo Shao remembered it very deeply.
It was many years ago, when I was in contact with archery in the palace of the Fu family, there was an instructor to teach it. Guo Shao practiced archery since he was a child, but he was not good at archery. The instructor saw that he had a good foundation and was willing to work hard, so he gave him a lot of advice, one of which was: Thinking too much is not necessarily a good thing. The speaker has no intention, but the listener has intention. Guo Shao has kept this sentence in his heart for many years. Indeed, sometimes if you think too much, it is easy to look forward and back and shrink back, and you are unwilling to take the initiative to take risks, but you will not perform well.
If he thinks too much, can Guo Shao make a decision easily today? He will be overwhelmed by a lot of psychological pressure... Thinking of losing a battle, who can afford to lose? The opponent Chai Kehong can't afford to lose, and neither can Guo Shao.
With his foundation, there is a big gap between winning and winning. If he wins, various opportunities including marriage will make his strength further expand rapidly. If you lose, you will lose more.
So just don't think about it! He was just trying his best to do his own thing well, and he just thought that such a decision was the best choice for this campaign. As for the result, what do you think too much about?
Three days is enough to prepare for the attack. Including playing the emperor and contacting Gao Huaide; and the convening department will assign tasks and draw lots.
...
Guo Shao woke up very early, before dawn, but all sleepiness disappeared.
There was silence outside the tent, and the flames of the campfire flickered in the gaps between the oilcloths. The oil lamp in the tent was flickered by the wind, the light was not as bright as in the field, and the surrounding was dim.
The soldiers were still asleep, even the cook who got up the first to prepare the meal was still asleep. I don't know how many days it has been.
Guo Shao felt that his psychological quality was actually not very good. He often pretended to be calm, and he couldn't sleep well when it was very important. This kind of situation existed in the previous life. On the eve of the college entrance examination, he had insomnia, and he could only fall asleep for half of the night.
He simply got up, goosebumps all over his body. The season has entered winter, not to mention it is still very cold in the early morning. He found a coat to wrap around his body, and sat quietly beside the bed to adjust his breathing.
I closed my eyes for a while, but still didn't feel sleepy at all. When Guo Shao opened his eyes, a "tiger" suddenly appeared in front of him. It was a new flag of the Tiger Army. Originally, the embroidery didn't look very similar, but when the light blurred, it looked like a tiger!
"Aww!" Suddenly, a tiger's extremely deterrent and aggressive growl sounded in his ears.
Guo Shao stared at the tiger with wide eyes, imagining himself as it in his heart! A ferocious beast, full of fury and murderous aura, in this world full of killing and violence, he is a tiger, not a camel, and his opponents will be terrified!
I have found the best state, every decision is absolutely correct!
