The difference between veteran generals and other outstanding generals is that veteran generals are born with a soothing aura of security, and... in order to obtain this sense of security, the military will show extra loyalty to such generals. After all, when encountering power training
Well, if Bai Yinzi still doesn't live well, then he is ill.
Although boxing is intimidating to the young, Li Guang, who is several decades old, and even Wei Qing, do not necessarily dare to say that they can defeat Huo Qubing, a terrifying young beast.
But when the situation is particularly difficult, the value of a famous old general is sometimes much higher than that of a young general...
At this moment, among the members of this discussion - the generals and commanders who were relatively peripheral and whose rank was not as high as that of Li Xiaogong and others couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
However, Li Xiaogong, Zhang Liang, Li Daozong, Zhang Shigui, Yuchi Laomo... these famous generals were all a little intolerable.
Some people's sense of security is always exchanged for the bravery of others, and bravery often means danger...
The dangers of the brave are always more uncomfortable, and that is loyalty.
Old Demon Yuchi hesitated to speak, but when he thought about it, he had never seen this situation before. It would be fine if he died, but it would be bad if he missed the opportunity. Goguryeo was a serious problem beside China's bed in the Sui Dynasty.
There can be no mistakes.
However, these emotions are just that, and their intensity is not very high.
After all...it's just a war.
It is true that Goguryeo has become stronger and is no longer the original Goguryeo.
But the Tang Dynasty is no longer the Tang Dynasty it used to be!
…
Although Li Ji asked to lead the charge, times have indeed changed, and the lead does not mean that he will directly lead the charge and fight head-on.
Of course, this was how it was fought a few decades ago. The protagonists of the Southern and Northern Dynasties for hundreds of years were heavily armored knights covered with iron, and Li Er and his team were the best among them.
But Li Ji, Li Xiaogong, Yuchi Old Demon Li Daozong and Zhang Liang are not fools. Now both sides have dangerous items like grenades, and grenades are weapons that can break through heavy armor defenses and kill people.
,Moreover...
Although this Xuantu City should not have been rebuilt with cement, but...
Looking from a distance, Old Devil Yuchi couldn't help but frown.
"In the past few days, the cement wall outside Xuantu City has become taller."
Although Xuantu City did not become a "remastered version", due to the arrival of the Imperial Guards of the Tang Dynasty, the place began to be reinforced with cement.
In addition to the original khaki rammed earth wall of the city wall, a circle of gray cement walls was built.
The thickness of this cement wall is astonishing, seventy or eighty centimeters. Although the height is not high, only about two meters, it is still much lower than the city wall that is nearly ten meters high. But the problem is...
As a result, breaking through the city gate from land is just like climbing up the city with a ladder. It becomes very difficult!
Of course, the Imperial Guards of the Tang Dynasty were not idiots who just stared at the opponent's construction of fortifications in vain, and they still made their own preparations.
Although this period of time is tight, Changle, Li Xiaogong, Yuchi Old Demon Li Daozong and the others are not idle. From the day the army first arrived in Zhuozhou to set up camp, no...
Not even after the village was set up, but when they arrived at the place and started to build the village, they found a group of people to dig holes from the ground and quickly pushed forward from the ground!
This method was thought up by Li Sheng. At first, everyone thought it was a bit incredible, but it sounds a bit outrageous...
How difficult is it to dig a hole under this earth? But because it was Li Sheng, everyone still followed the plan.
As the camp progressed, everyone gradually forgot about this...
In their opinion, this is a clever trick. After all, it would take six hundred years to dig a hole into the opponent's city?
You must know that the city wall is often as high as ten meters. The thickness of the underground foundation is not comparable to that of ordinary houses, and the foundation of the city wall is also made of rammed earth.
Although rammed earth is still soil, you can imagine how difficult it is to dig it out.
But this day...
Li Ji led five thousand soldiers and arrived at the city head first. When he was preparing to charge with a serious face, suddenly there was a sound of horse hooves behind him.
But when they saw Yuchi Laomo appeared, he rushed over with a playful smile on his face and said with a lewd smile, "Maogong, what do you want to do? Just rush in?"
"Ah?..." Li Ji looked at Yuchi Gong a little strangely, "The battle between the two armies is to attack the city. How can we fight if we don't move forward bravely?..."
Siege warfare is a battle that consumes a lot of morale. No matter which side is attacking or defending, the commander must show absolute fearlessness and self-confidence, so that there will be no problems with the mentality of the army. Li Ji's words are basically an attempt.
And... because it was common sense, Li Ji looked at Yuchi Laomo with a strange look. This old man has also been an experienced driver for many years. He came from the war together in the past, so he can't even know this bit of common sense, right?
.
Of course, Li Sheng is young and does not have much combat experience, so it is possible that he does not know this. After all, Li Sheng does not need to "show that he is confident". He... may need someone to tell him this...
However, Yuchi's expression was obviously showing off, so Li Ji looked unhappy, but he also became curious, "You old fool, what on earth do you want to say?"
"Alas... Don't be impatient, Mao Gong." Yu Chigong is always given various nicknames. His style of painting is basically "Renamed Husky - Nicknamed Erha". This is what old devils and fools are like.
It was a rare opportunity for him to be a wise man. He smiled with an inscrutable expression on his face for several seconds. Seeing that Li Ji's face was a little anxious, he rolled his eyes and said in a very arrogant tone, "Let's do this..."
Then the old demon Yuchi possessed Li Ji's ear and pressed it for a while.
Li Ji's face was filled with astonishment.
"really?!"
"Alas..." Old Demon Yuchi shook his head when he heard this, and looked at Li Ji's expression, full of regret.
"You said that you, after all these years, still don't understand. You don't hug such a big thigh, and you still ask me if this is serious..."
Li Ji was stunned for a long time, and then suddenly burst into laughter!
Naturally, the Goguryeo defenders saw this scene.
After all, Chen Bing's 200,000 yuan has now become 300,000 yuan. You can't keep a close eye on this.
However, after staring at it for a while, everyone naturally noticed the scene where Old Demon Yuchi spoke in Li Ji's ear, and then Li Ji laughed heartily.
Seeing this scene, Goguryeo people really started to sweat from head to toe.
When the Tang army first arrived, the mentality of the Goguryeo people was as follows:
It's similar to what Yeon Gaesumun observed. Half of them think that Goguryeo has grown rapidly in the past two years and are invincible. The Tang army is just a bird... and the other half feels that the Tang army is too strong now and Goguryeo is afraid that it will not escape this time.
