Chapter 754: The Prestige of Human Slaughter
It was late at night, Li Zhongyi finished his inspection in the camp, and when he returned to the big tent, he received a signal from Li Yong to report safety. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The army camped in the wilderness, and according to the custom, in addition to the inherent warning and secret posts, Li Yong led 2,000 cavalry and secretly ambushed around the camp.
Since the cavalry was introduced, the security of the Li family's army when they camped had increased by an order of magnitude.
Zhu Niang brought a copper basin full of hot water and waited for Li Zhongyi to burn his feet, Li Zhongyi did not take off his soft armor, and lay on the couch with his clothes.
As early as when Li Zhongyi inspected the camp, Zhu Niang had already done a good job of personal hygiene, she naturally lay down next to Li Zhongyi, and easily placed the long knife and sheath in front of the couch.
"Master, aren't our family quite good at night raids?" Zhu Niang has fought many vicious battles with Zhesaihua and led the troops, and she is puzzled that Li Zhongyi did not take advantage of the night to break through the capital.
Li Zhongyi grabbed Zhu Niang's fragrant body, yawned loudly, and laughed softly: "I have been holding my troops still, just to attack from the front, completely defeat the hundreds of thousands of troops of the Goryeo sticks, and kill them all, so that these Goryeo sticks will be obedient." ā
"If the Goryeo sticks refuse to go out of the city to meet ......" Zhu Niang saw that Li Zhongyi was in a very good mood, so she simply broke the casserole and asked in the end.
Li Zhongyi raised his hand and gently stroked Zhu Niang's cheeks, curled his lips slightly, and sneered: "I deliberately connived at the puppet king of Goryeo to gather more than 300,000 soldiers and horses. ā
It was only at this time that Zhu Niang suddenly realized that Li Zhongyi expected that the Goryeo sticks would take the initiative to go out of the city for a decisive battle with the strength of the crowd.
After thinking about it for a while, Zhu Niang whispered: "Master, although our army only has 30,000 soldiers and horses, they are all veterans of a hundred battles, and there are 10,000 cavalry to press the formation, and even the spare good Khitan horses have tens of thousands, which are used to pursue the rout of the sticks, and they are in their place." ā
Li Zhongyi was very happy in his heart, and hugged Zhu Niang's soft body, which was a wild gnaw, until the baby was hot and panting, and he didn't stop.
This bamboo girl is worthy of being a heroine from a famous family in the northwest, as long as she is a little dialed, she can be integrated up and down, and Li Zhongyi is very happy.
After the sky was completely bright, the military horn of "Didi Da Da ......" to get up sounded belatedly, and there was movement in the middle of the entire camp.
The veterans in the battalion, due to the biological clock, they had actually woken up a long time ago, but because there was no military order, they didn't dare to move without permission, and they were still half-asleep and half-awake squinting back to sleep.
As soon as the military horn sounded, these veterans stood up before they opened their eyes, subconsciously picked up the weapons that were resting beside them, and ran out of the tent.
"The fifth is all listen to my command, all of them have it, stand upright, and look to the right!"
"Take a break, today is five breaths slower than the assembly speed of the third capital, the military judge wrote it down, and the next day will be punished for twenty miles of armed cross-country."
"Report to the commander, the eighth is assembled, please instruct."
"The report is in command, the Second Army should be 5,813 people, but it is actually 5,813 people, the report is complete, please instruct."
Li Zhongyi rode on the back of the "bloody killing" and silently watched his subordinates, these people are worthy of being battle-hardened veterans, representing an hourglass that is only half an hour, and they have just missed one-sixth, and they have already assembled.
After so many years of fighting and training, Li Zhongyi's old subordinates have already become professionals who make killing their profession.
Today's total star officer, He Dabei, saw Li Zhongyi bowing slightly, so he galloped to the forefront of the phalanx, and shouted: "All of them, listen to my command, stand upright!" ā
"Smack!" Tens of thousands of leather boots collided at the same time, making a frightening crunch.
"According to the order of the marshal, all the soldiers sat down on the spot and prepared for breakfast." He Dabei gave the order to eat breakfast in accordance with the strict norms of the infantry army's drills.
Li Jiajun eats in peacetime, and eats in wartime, with very different strict regulations. On weekdays, in order to alleviate the pressure on the firemen, the whole army, regardless of officers and soldiers, lined up to receive meals.
In wartime, in order to guard against a possible surprise attack by the enemy, the soldiers must line up in battle formation, either take a break, or sit in place, waiting for the firemen to bring porridge and cakes.
After all, the fireman battalion has few people, and according to the order of the battle sequence, the troops who undertake the vanguard task will have priority meals, and then arrange for defense.
In addition to following some advanced training modes in modern times in order to rapidly enhance the organization and discipline of the troops, Li Zhongyi has paid more attention to improving the loopholes in all aspects of the process, from camping, eating, and lining up to facing the enemy in battle, according to the needs of actual combat, and has included them in the scope of regulations.
There are no rules. Even if the computer runs, it still needs to rely on those cold and boring software logic code instructions, and at the same time, there is also the tragedy of poisoning and paralysis, not to mention the human beings living in groups?
Soon, the army ate breakfast one after another, and after a quarter of an hour of rest, they marched out in turn according to their respective battle sequences.
The location where Li Jiajun camped last night was about sixty miles away from Kaijing, the capital of Goryeo.
The reason why I chose to land and camp in this location is actually only one purpose, be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years!
Although Li Jiajun was brave and good at fighting, after all, the subordinates of the puppet king of Goryeo gathered more than 300,000 soldiers and horses, and Li Zhongyi was not worried about the head-on decisive battle, for fear of unexpected mistakes.
According to the old rules, Li Yong's cavalry was divided into two, guarding the two wings of the infantry army on the left and right. Liu Heyang's vanguard army was in the front, Li Zhongyi was in the center surrounded by the guards, and Liao Shanhe's troops were behind and took care of the logistics baggage.
Some of the Khitan slaves who accompanied the army were taken by Li Yong as riding slaves, some were placed in the baggage camp, and more were arranged to go to the engineer camp to undertake coolie work.
According to Li Zhongyi, the officials and soldiers of our Great Zhou Dynasty are not philanthropists, so how can there be a reason to feed slaves for nothing and not work?
Today's Li Jiajun is really generous, except for the cavalry battalion, which is one person and three horsemen, the rest of the infantry army also marches on horseback.
The baggage battalions of the army were also loaded in carriages transported from the Khitan State, and those responsible for loading, unloading, dismantling and installation were all Khitan slaves.
The generous Li Jiajun, the soldiers are like a rainbow, striding with their heads held high, and they walk with the wind.
Accompanied by the crisp sound of snare drums, the soldiers carried steel knives at their waists, red tasseled spears hung from their gun pouches, two quivers hung from the left side of the saddle, and a stringed divine arm crossbow inserted into the bow sac on the right side.
Li Fifty-six, who controlled the horse with one hand, kept his eyes on Li Zhongyi's vicinity, and muttered in a chattering voice: "My little girl, I think that when I followed the township marshal, I was busy on two legs, alas, I am tired to death." ā
Li Seventy-eight's ears were sharp, and he heard Li Fifty-six seem to be complaining, but he was actually showing off his old qualifications, so he couldn't help but laugh, and deliberately lowered his voice and said: "Look at your unpromising appearance, when I was ordered to go to the northwest, guess what, Guo Shuai's men not only have 30,000 well-trained Han cavalry, but also 20,000 party cavalry, more than 50,000 soldiers and horses, and there is no pressure to sweep the northwest domains." ā
Li 56 is now the commander of the third battalion of the Guards Army, belonging to the middle-level guards officer, with more than 500 people under his command, and has stepped into the ranks of Li Zhongyi's lineage.
According to convention, officers from the Guards Army, both in terms of status and treatment, are more than a cut above ordinary officers.
Li Wuliu shook his head and said: "We are poor ghosts in a village, your family was not rich back then, if Lao Tzu is not mistaken, the jacket you wore at that time, patches and patches, tattered, I am afraid that it is the scum worn by the old people of your great-grandfather's generation when they were young, right?" ā
Li Seventy-eight was so angry that his nose smoked, and he retorted: "Your grandmother is still a child daughter-in-law who escaped from the famine." ā
"You ......" Li Fifty-six stared at his eyes and was about to scold, when he suddenly heard a stern reprimand from beside him, "Dare to whisper during the march, and each of them will remember twenty military sticks." ā
Li Seventy-eight turned his head to look, but it was Liu Changshun, the head of the military police of the Guards, he stuck out his tongue, lowered his head and didn't dare to say anything.
With a cold face, Liu Changshun took out the record book from the leather satchel and a special charcoal pen, and recorded the names of Li 56 and Li 78.
"Sign and draw." Liu Changshun handed the record book to the two of them and announced formulaically, "If there is no objection, after the celebration party, you will find me to receive the punishment." If it is too late to come, hehe, the punishment will be doubled. ā
Li Fifty-six and Li Seventy-eight are also the first batch of henchmen and backbones who followed Li Zhongyi, and they know a lot about military law.
Liu Changshun waited for the two of them to sign and draw, and couldn't help but shake his head, reminding: "According to the qualifications and military exploits of the two of you, you should have been the deputy commander of the first army a long time ago, but you don't make big mistakes, and small mistakes keep coming, what a pity?" ā
Li Wuliu smiled and said: "The higher the position, the heavier the responsibility, and the greater the rules. ā
Liu Changshun shook his head and sighed softly, Li Dashuai forcibly promoted cultural classes in the army, and officers at all levels must take exams every time they are promoted, and all of them are literate and hyphenated, which obviously has a lot of benefits, but it has also created these two living treasures in front of him.
The marching speed of the Li Jiajun was originally far beyond the armies of the same era, and now with the Khitan horse, it was only a sixty-mile journey, and it only took four hours to reach the south gate of the capital city.
The terrain near Kaijing has already been mapped by the technicians of the surveying and mapping team, and the location of the camp has also been determined in advance by the people of the Senate Department.
After the order of He Dabei, the chief star officer, the Khitan slaves in the engineer battalion, driven by leather whips and steel knives, began to dig pits and erect walls in full swing, and build a village and camp.
When the Goryeo people in Kaijing City heard that Li Zhongyi, a living person, had once again led the king of the Celestial Dynasty to come, the people in the market scattered in panic and hid in their homes and did not dare to go out.
