Yang Wanchun's indifferent expression at this moment shows the temperament of a boss who has experienced countless ups and downs and is extremely calm.
Faced with the panic of his lieutenants, Yang Wanchun changed the subject at this time.
"Every one of you is either arrogant or terrified. If I die in the future, just you guys..."
As he spoke, Yang Wanchun's face became darker and darker,
"I won't tell you whether you can defend Anshi City. Let me first ask if you have the confidence to compete for my position as general?"
This sentence was simply a question of the soul, and it caused a group of captains to shut themselves up on the spot——
To be honest, although the Xianbei soldiers who have reached the rank of captain are very hard-working and can endure hardships, it is nonsense to say how high their consciousness is. What they think about most cannot be the rise and fall of the Goguryeo country, but themselves.
The issue of getting promoted and making money... Of course, it is impossible to tell Yang Wanchun this kind of thinking, and Yang Wanchun, as a leader, has never mentioned it... or in other words, he has never mentioned it.
Everyone subconsciously thought that it was impossible for the general to know everyone's mentality, but at this moment...
The embarrassment everyone felt after being exposed by Yang Wanchun's words... is simply not worth mentioning.
Of course, Yang Wanchun actually had no intention of confronting these juniors, so he just snorted and left.
However, a small school commander had the courage to ask, "But Commander, this Tang Army is so powerful, what are we going to do..."
When they feel insecure, some people will comfort themselves and muddle through, while others will try to figure things out no matter what.
Yang Wanchun glanced at the junior high school student with admiration and said, "You are a good boy. I will promote you to be a general."
"As for you..."
After turning his head and scanning for a week, Yang Wanchun's admiring gaze turned gloomy for only a moment.
"Why are you panicking? We, Goguryeo, are not vegetarians. The Sui Dynasty was also very powerful back then. What happened to us again?"
"Listen to me!"
"Nowadays, the Tang Dynasty is indeed powerful, with strong soldiers and horses. But did the founding of Goguryeo rely on strong soldiers and strong horses? What Goguryeo relied on was - we are barbarians! We are born to be ferocious beasts!"
Yang Wanchun's loud shout was like spring thunder in the cold winter, and all the captains were suddenly startled!
"These days are approaching the depths of winter, when the weather is freezing. We Hu people can withstand this kind of moment. The Han people have always been pampered in the south. How can we withstand it? As long as we can stand up to the strong walls and clear the fields,
No matter how powerful the Tang army is, they are not real tigers. As long as they cannot withstand the severe cold, they will retreat."
After Yang Wanchun said this, he walked away without further explanation.
Seeing this scene... several generals thought for a while, and then looked at each other with expressions of surprise——
Although what the commander said seems a bit simple, the logic seems to be correct.
Since the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Han people have no longer been able to endure hardship. It is so cold in Goguryeo. What can they do here? How long can they endure it?
Besides...as long as Yang Wanchun's words are effective, the benefit will not only be that the Tang army will retreat, but also in the future...it will be equivalent to the people of Goguryeo always having the "severe cold" as a safe zone.
In the future, as long as I wait for an opportunity, I can still go south to harvest grass and make a fortune!
All the captains were from Xianbei, and when they heard Yang Wanchun's words, they suddenly puffed up their chests with pride.
It makes so much sense!
As for the Han people, they are already in ruins. So what if there are a few capable people here and there?
As long as they are not as able to endure hardship as the barbarians, then the world will definitely still belong to the barbarians.
…
Yang Wanchun's speech moved some people very much. This logic quickly spread in Anshi City. It became famous for a while and also impressed countless Xianbei people in Anshi City.
But... soon, new news came.
The Forbidden Army of the Tang Dynasty showed no signs of rest after breaking through two cities in a row, and immediately began a new round of fierce attacks. This round of attacks first captured Hengshan, and then Gaimou. After the two cities, the Forbidden Army of the Tang Dynasty
The momentum was like breaking bamboo, and in less than half a month, they defeated Baiyan, Yinshan, Jian'an, Zhuzhe, Houhuang, Momi, Xincheng... and more than ten major cities!
Dead silence.
The earth was dead silent.
The enthusiasm and courage that had just been mobilized in Goguryeo by Yang Wanchun's speech were immediately destroyed by the terrifying military situation at the speed of light, and there was a dead silence.
No one thought of it.
According to common sense, the Tang army would suffer as long as the weather gets colder and colder. This Han army has actually become colder and colder this year. The coldness can be clearly felt by the body for more than ten days.
Li, the force is like breaking bamboo, and it can conquer hundreds of miles.
…
If you add in the fact that Zhang Liang separated from the main force of the army and led the naval force to attack Beishan and other cities with a partial division, the result would be even more terrifying.
And the entire process of breaking through so many cities in a row took less than a month!
The key point is that this season is not an ordinary one, but a cold winter.
According to past experience, it can even be said to be common sense, this is the season when the Tang army is at its weakest, but for the Goguryeo side, it is the strongest season. Because winter follows autumn.
It is early autumn now, when Goguryeo's war horses are at their fattest and strongest.
But... the city defenders along the way, whether they were holding on to the city or sending troops to flank the Tang army to harass and harass them, all suffered a disastrous defeat without exception.
The weather clearly gave Goguryeo a great advantage, but the Tang army was unstoppable!
And the unstoppable Tang army means...
The current situation is extremely serious for Goguryeo!
Indeed, this is not the coldest time of the year - it was late autumn and early winter when Tang Jun came, and...it's funny, because the progress is so fast, it is still early winter, the first of the three months of winter.
Months are actually not the coldest time at all.
But the Tang army conquered so many cities so quickly, and...
Next, it will be Anshi City's turn to face pressure.
Everyone can feel a terrifying premonition hovering above their heads, lingering...
The desert far away in Mobei, the sky above the wasteland, seems to be becoming more and more strange and dark...
Along the way, apart from a slight attack at the beginning, and the two cities of Xuantu and Liaoyuan, which he quickly finished without even going into battle himself, Li Sheng had no more additional actions.
Throughout the whole process, Li Ji, Zhang Shigui, Li Daozong and others were overwhelmingly powerful, frantically conquering the city one after another.
Although the pressure has always been there, now it has finally become extremely real.
Gao Jianwu's face was gloomy.
Yeon Gaesumun's face was equally gloomy.
At this moment, there was silence in the royal palace, and the silence was terrifying.
Gao Jianwu even looked a little lost, like a walking zombie.
