58. The chill penetrates Chang'an, and the city is full of Xuanwu armor I.

"I stood, in the midst of a gale. With the sword in hand, ask the world who is the hero! ”

"It's very embarrassing to have this kind of madness at this time!"

"You don't understand, this is one of the most beautiful military songs I thought, and it will definitely boost morale."

"Oh? I thought you were still thinking about that very beautiful and beautiful woman who claimed to be Yu Ji. ”

"This, this, how is this possible?"

"Oh? Is that really the case? Looks like I should have a little more trust in my husband. ”

"If you want to increase trust, why did you take out the pan!"

"Oh ~ This, I always think that my husband likes this magical thing very much, DAβ˜†~ZE."

"Grandma of Heaven, your grandson is going to see you......"

"Ding-bang" !!

With the familiar sound of a blow, a corpse spitting a white object that looked like a soul slowly slipped off the golden warhorse, while a powerful guard beside him remained motionless as if he hadn't seen it at all.

I said...... Have they always been like this...... I always feel like I'm going to collapse......"

"Hehe, it's good to get used to it, it's good to get used to it, and I haven't delayed anything serious anyway."

"Sure enough, isn't this world a place where normal people like us can survive normally, it feels a little cruel."

"I always feel that your statement like this will cause very terrible consequences."

"Well, probably Brother Meng Qi doesn't plan to be a normal person. Anyway, the festival or something is long gone. ”

On that day, the wind was a little strong, carrying the sand brought from the Loess Plateau, and people had to close their eyes from time to time.

Probably because of this reason, the undisciplined behavior of some people did not cause fluctuations in the morale of the whole army.

Probably.

Staff Department, this is Li Shushi's personal name, according to the popular name of this era, it should be Mou Cao or Staff Officer Cao, aside from these nihilistic things, it is actually a group of strategists composed of Jia Kui, Wang Ling, Wang Chang and some other outstanding family children, although it cannot be compared with the functions of the products under the modern staff system. But there are already some general effects.

Of course. These people are still just a group of pathfinders, they need to constantly explore their own positioning under the instructions of Li Shushi, and they also have to learn war-related knowledge and experience from Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun and others. When graduates from professional "military schools" in the future are enriched into this department, it may be time for them to play a greater role.

Now at most, it is to help Jia Xu deal with some military intelligence. Aggregate and analyze various types of intelligence. Then sort out the things that need his attention for Li Shushi. Or to provide consulting work for Li Shushi when he needs it. The other is to carry out some brainstorming such as battle situation deduction according to Li Shushi's request, or to help them deal with some trivial work when Li Shushi and even Cheng Yu, Jia Xu and others plan to be lazy.

Speaking of which, this department seems to be quite popular with the powerful families in various places, since the cold war between Li Shushi and the family has tended to ease. began to open his government office to the children of the family, although the assessment was strict and there were not many hires, but there were still people who wanted to squeeze in, and even some were local well-known family heads, even Li Shushi had a jaw-dropping feeling.

Well, it is estimated that it is because here can access some of the core secrets of the state army, which means that those who can enter here have the opportunity to enter the core decision-making circle of the state army, and the future is bright. Second, because the difficulty of admission is not low, and the number of admissions is not large, being able to enter is also a status symbol.

People who don't want to be in the field naturally don't care about these things, but for most people who aspire to careers, the effect is probably similar to the attention that those students who are titled on the gold list will receive in the future.

And it is precisely this kind of staff that determines the deployment of military forces in the four directions of today's attack on Chang'an City.

The commander of the east is Lu Bu, accompanied by the main army led by Zhao Yun and the headquarters led by Duan Xuan.

The commander in the north was Huang Zhong, accompanied by the Shuozhou Corps led by Hua Xiong and Li Kan, the heroic coalition army in the Hexi region led by the candidate, and the Haoqiang army in the Hexi region, which also included Hu Qi from the two subject states.

The main commander in the south is Zhang Ji, and in addition to the men and horses of the headquarters, there are also Fan Chou, Cheng Yin and Yang Qiu, as well as the powerful coalition army in the Guanzhong region. Out of trust, Li Shushi didn't even send any people with duties such as supervising the army in this direction, and let these generals who were still the Xiliang Army play to their heart's content, without interfering with them at all.

Of course, whether there is really nothing behind them, Li Shushi only said that he has seen Jia Xu quite busy recently.

In the West, Li Shushi himself was in charge, in addition to his personal guard troops, there were also Ma Teng's troops and the powerful coalition army from Hanyang County - those were all old friends that Li Shushi was familiar with.

That is to say, most people actually have a very "sober" understanding of Li Shushi and even the undisciplined conduct of the Bingzhou Army.

Or rather, it's long gone.

It's only the only thing that has never seen the world (?) The Ma brothers would be so surprised.

Well, it's definitely that they're rare and weird.

"Lord, may I ask if we should attack, you can see that there are horns of attack from several other directions."

After scattering the troops, Li Shushi delegated the right to attack to the leading generals in several aspects, and only arranged some fast horses so that the news could be quickly transmitted in several directions.

Anyway, the main core idea of the siege a few days ago is not to make any progress, just to toss the enemy in the city is the greatest victory, and how to do it depends entirely on the level of the commanders and generals in all aspects.

This may also be regarded as a tacit game, although the reward is not explicitly stated, but from the smiling eyes of Lu Bu and Huang Zhong, it is estimated that something good in Li Shushi's house has been targeted by these two.

Well, it is estimated that it is either Su Xiaololi's family banquet or a new variety that Su Xiaololi has just brewed.

That's what this group of guys is pursuing. Although those food and wine can definitely be worth a thousand dollars if they are put on the market.

But that's Su Xiaololi's meticulous work, how can it be casually let outsiders go, let alone be measured by money~

Ahem, I accidentally digressed again.

"Don't worry, don't worry, just let Shoucheng take a look at some of the latest achievements of the Bingzhou Army."

Then, Li Shushi turned his head to look at Su Xiaololi, and the other party gave him a charming smile back.

It's done.

"By the way, Shoucheng, send someone to talk to the people below, don't be too surprised when you hear any big movements. It's the same with any big tremors. In particular, pay attention to the war horse, don't be alarmed, the war horse will hurt people, it will not be good. ”

"Could it be that the lord is planning to use something powerful...... Immortal law? ”

Li Shushi's experience of participating in the Yellow Turban Army is not a secret, and even the miracles that happened in the First World War of Changshe have become a legend after so many years of word of mouth, although the exaggeration makes many people difficult to believe. But it is inevitable to mumble in my heart. After all, if it's true and you don't prepare for it, you suffer. That's yours, no.

Besides, it's not that no one blames the reason why Li Shushi was able to defeat the Lord of Xianbei and Lian in the year of the weak crown without any military experience on those mysterious powerful spells - just like those who always think that the powerful party has passed the boss completely by brainless output, and there is no technical content at all "high play".

"That kind of stuff isn't something you can just use. There are some things that can't be said now, as far as I know, Zhang Jiao died in his prime because he used too many secret methods. As a result, they overdrew their own life force, otherwise ...... Forget it, what do you want to do so much, if you don't work so hard, I'm afraid there will be no scene where Taiping Dao swept the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty. ”

It has been almost ten years since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and although most of the people who witnessed it at the beginning are still alive, but as the leaders of the original several camps, they have all passed away, coupled with the decline of the Han family and Li Shushi's current status, even if he really said something shocking, it would not have much impact, let alone these small things that can only be regarded as secrets.

Of course, not everything can be said to anyone, such as the real inside story of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, whether it is Li Shushi or those who have seen the letter, they are silent. Maybe when this era comes to an end, it will provide some fierce information for historians, or the inside story will be an eternal unsolved case, disappearing in the long river of history.

"As for the things that are about to go into battle, Shoucheng shouldn't be too surprised when the time comes."

"Haha, my Ma Teng is also experienced in a hundred battles, if it weren't for those unpredictable immortal methods, my Ma Shoucheng is still very confident in his own knowledge. Maybe the lord is betting with him, but he doesn't know what to do? ”

"Oh, gladly accompanied. But I don't know what the bet is? ”

"The two little ones are becoming less and less obedient to me as a father. However, the two of them seem to have a lot of respect for the lord, and if I win by luck, I wonder if the lord can help me persuade those two naughty children. ”

Well, because some of the behaviors of this "ghost father" have been unbearable, although the Ma family brothers helped Li Shushi to demote Ma Teng, but they mixed into Li Shushi's personal guard on the second day after Ma Teng changed his banner, and because the two of them were the best of the Xiliang cavalry, they almost didn't find out that two newcomers were mixed in during the training that day.

If it weren't for Dian Wei or Xu Chu, they would have seen the Ma brothers and were impressed.

For such a result, Ma Teng could only be silent and tearful, after all, no matter what he did, it seemed that the Ma family brothers who were determined to follow Li Shushi couldn't pull it back, even if they were strong, even Ma Teng himself felt that he couldn't get that hand.

Therefore, this strange person with the attribute of son control is not too old next year, but when the two sons ran away, he became a poor man with the image of a middle-aged uncle overnight, and now he can only use this method in the hope of reversing his image in the hearts of his sons.

Sure enough, there is pity for the hateful.

Li Shushi, who silently kept the war horse away from a certain "ghost father", looked at Ma Teng with a little more pity in his eyes.

But......

"Then if Zai Xia wins, you will hand over your two daughters to Zai Xia to raise."

Well, of course the little Lori or something is cute. However, the little young in the swaddling clothes is definitely a troublesome character, and Li Shushi will definitely shy away from such a creature.

How could it be that Ma Qing was still nagging in a casual chat with Li Shushi a while ago, saying that she was already an older woman in her thirties, although she had two marriages in name, but she had never been able to make a difference, so she felt a little regretful, and now she felt even more empty.

Thinking about it carefully, Ma Qing's first marriage was to Huangfu Gui, who was already old at the time. The old general Huangfu Gui is naturally worthy of Ma Qing, a young girl, in terms of reputation and knowledge, but even though he is a famous general on the battlefield, he obviously does not have Zhong Xuan's ability. Able to make a bell at the age of seventy or eighty. Moreover, the marriage between the two did not last long, so Huangfu Gui drove the crane to the west, so that Ma Qing was widowed until Dong Zhuo entered Beijing, naturally he was not able to conceive his own children.

And her titular second man, Li Shushi, has great respect for such a famous martyr in history. In addition, his marriage with him was completely regarded as a kind of protection, plus a conspiracy. Therefore, although Ma Qing and Li Shushi have the name of husband and wife. But there is no husband and wife at all.

It is impossible to talk about what to give birth to.

Now if you can find a pair of lovely daughters for her, you can comfort the other party's empty heart as much as you want.

Of course, maybe the other person is hinting that he can do something. But Li Shushi feels that the possibility of this is not high, because Su Xiaololi has enough control in her Lily Palace, if it weren't for Queen Wusun to let Nero sauce take advantage of it, and at the same time, Li Shushi also needs to find an opportunity to vent in the war, in order to prevent Li Shushi from becoming that kind of strange β™‚ guy, Su Xiaololi can only endure a certain guard girl who is a little rampant in her eyes, even if she is unhappy.

Others?

Li Shushi felt that he probably didn't have much chance before he got married.

I believe that Ma Qing, who has enough life experience, should be very aware of this, so Li Shushi thinks it is more practical to find a daughter.

Well, maybe the cute daughters will still have the childhood dream of "marrying their father" when they grow up.

Ahem, I always feel that Li Shushi, who thinks like this, seems to be about to become a storage zΓ i at the same level as a certain ghost father.

In this way, the two men with their own ghosts stared at each other, and then they all showed a smile that the conspiracy had succeeded.

The bet was thus established.

So, with a wave of Li Shushi's hand, a trebuchet that didn't look special was pushed out.

Outwardly, these iron trebuchets do not seem to be fundamentally different from regular iron trebuchets, there do not seem to be any structural differences, except for the slight difference in the wheels used to help the trebuchet move, and there are not even more obvious changes elsewhere.

You want to surprise me with this kind of thing?

Marten felt as if it was an easy thing to win the bet, and that bright tomorrow beckoned him.

Maybe this is Li Shushi deliberately releasing water? After all, no one wants to see their men and sons separate.

Ma Teng suddenly felt that Li Shushi was really a good person, and he might have worked harder to repay the other party's "kindness".

I don't know how Li Shushi will feel after knowing this.

However, if Ma Teng really regarded these trebuchets as Li Shushi's release of water, then he also underestimated Li Shushi too much.

Isn't betting or something something that you only do when you have a great grasp of it?

This is Li Shushi's understanding of betting.

Of course, he can't be an all-knowing and all-powerful God, so he can't have complete control over all the factors that might have an impact. Even if you are really confident, it is only on your own side, and if the other party is really lucky, you can only sigh.

That's the fun of betting, isn't it?

So, Ma Teng, just wait to open your mouth wide and be surprised!

In the distance, shouts of killing can already be heard from all directions, obviously the siege battle in several other directions has begun, even if I don't know the specific battle situation, but I think about the first day, the intensity will not be too great. After all, there are still 50,000 troops in the hands of Li Guo and the others, and they can still support it if they rotate a little a few days ago.

However, I hope they won't be startled by the "new gadgets" that they and Su Xiaololi have come up with.

Tasks such as ranging, aiming, and even pulling the gun tip now have a clear division of labor and are handled by dedicated personnel. This ensures that the team members who operate each trebuchet are more familiar with their own work, as well as with the characteristics of their comrades, so that the stone projectiles fired by the trebuchet have a higher hit rate.

Maybe the improvement won't be obvious, but this kind of thing is supposed to add up to a lot.

Of course, today they may not have to be so troublesome, because the "shells" they fired today are somewhat special.

"The first round, the test launch. Put! ”

As the command flag in the commander's hand slashed down from top to bottom, the three trebuchets fired three dark projectiles at the same time.

The test launch is used to make final adjustments to various parameters, and naturally there is no need to let all trebuchets be launched together, even if it cannot be fully applied on the number jΓΉ, but if it is only used to smash the city wall or other fortifications on the city wall, it does not need to be so precise.

Well, it does make sense for you to say that this is based on probability, and people can't find a reason to refute it.

However, the three dark projectiles flying in the air seemed to have undergone some unknown changes, and the surface of the projectiles that was originally covered by an unknown dark black suddenly appeared with a firelight, and the fire became bigger and bigger, turning the entire projectile into a large fireball.

Such a change was obviously somewhat unexpected by the enemy.

Under the watchful eye of a stunned group of enemies on the walls, two of the three fireballs struck the warshed, which was made of solid wood protruding from the wall, which could be used to provide crossfire, and quickly set the tent into flames.

By the time the defenders remembered to extinguish the fire by all means, the fire had burned the tent to the ground. Even the water used to extinguish the fire was poured on the tent, which contributed to the spread of the fire and successfully burned a soldier who was very close, even if the soldier was not actually burned because of the unique rules of this plane, but it made the other party wail for a long time.

This is also a big blow to the enemy's morale.

Looking at Ma Teng, who was already a little shocked beside him, Li Shushi secretly smiled in his heart.

Started to be surprised now? The show has just begun.

Pan Sen: Huang Chao's "Yongdai" should be known to everyone by now...... (To be continued......)
