As the direct military leader of the Li family, Li Xiaogong's trap camp is the ace card of the Li family army. He is proficient in all kinds of hidden weapons and can dig the ground into traps to make the enemy defenseless. This time against the Jieli cavalry, the trap camp played a huge role.
, by digging rabbit holes, the Jieli cavalry did not dare to run wildly, suffered a lot, and reduced their power by half. Of course, this method can only exert its greatest advantage in mountainous areas, but in the plains, due to geographical restrictions, its effect is limited.
Li Xiuning showed him Luo Yu's notes, which shows his status in the Li family. Other military leaders did not receive such treatment. Although Luo Yu's notes were one-sided, they only gave a general summary of various military thoughts.
, the battle examples attached later are very far-fetched. In order to prove the point made earlier, various coincidences have to be arranged to prove it. In fact, how can there be so many coincidences in the real war process?
Even so, in this era, Li Xiuning was shocked to see such a military guidance document. She couldn't calm down for a long time after reading it. Li Xiaogong was a military strategist, and he couldn't help but admire after reading it. These military ideas will definitely be used in
It will shine brightly in the future.
"Sun Tzu's Art of War" is the source of military thought. It has been baptized for nearly a thousand years and is regarded as the holy book of military strategists. However, the core of "Sun Tzu's Art of War" is to challenge the rules and win by surprise. The rules are that there are no rules and pay attention to strategy. It shows that from the macro perspective
Before sending troops, we need to compare, analyze and study the political, military, troop strength and other conditions that determine victory or defeat between the enemy and ourselves, estimate the development process of the war and the possibility of victory or defeat, and then formulate a combat plan. This is the use of troops before the war.
essentials.
Although these things written by Luo Yu have the shadow of "Sun Tzu's Art of War" in them, they take a different approach, talking about the role of weapons, using people as the focus and weapons as the line to form a three-dimensional front and decentralize power to each team.
The commander of the army and the commander of the army can flexibly command according to the changes on the battlefield. In this way, even if the general is captured or sacrificed, he can still effectively organize the battle. In his words, the commander-in-chief of an army can "strategize and win a thousand miles."
There have been such people, and Zhuge Liang, the Prime Minister of the Shu Han Dynasty, is a representative one. However, for thousands of years, only one such person has appeared, and he died of exhaustion in the army in the end.
Some views are very dangerous. In the imperial era, although there was a saying that "the general will be outside, the emperor's orders will be ignored", but one cannot always disobey orders and anger the superior emperor, which will never end well.
Luo Yu concluded later: The warrior is the final extension of the country's actions. Victory or failure is related to the foundation of the country, so victory is the purpose. The purpose of war is to eliminate the enemy's effective strength, and the rest can be abandoned. After determining the strategy, everything
All serve to achieve strategic goals.
Li Xiaogong didn't know that this was Luo Yu's condensed military thought for thousands of years in his time and space. If this thought was regarded as the guiding thought now, he doesn't know how many people the Sui Dynasty would have chopped off their heads.
Luo Yu didn't care about this. He just wrote down this view and let Li Xiuning see it. She would have a sense of proportion. As for whether he can practice it in war in the future, it is not up to him unless he also becomes a leader of the army.
The commander-in-chief may raise troops to compete with the heroes of the late Sui Dynasty.
Li Xiuning's tent was lit up all night, and no one knew what she and Li Xiaogong were talking about inside. After getting up early in the morning, Luo Yu found that the snow had finally stopped, but the north wind had not stopped, blowing stronger and stronger, blowing away the frozen parts that had not had time to freeze.
It was flying everywhere, and it was all white for a while.
The team set off again. The tents were put away and all were loaded on the carriage. They walked leisurely to the north. No one bothered Luo Yu. Breakfast was a yellow steamed bun and a bowl of egg drop soup, which Shan'er brought over.
He left immediately without even bothering to say a word.
Luo Yu couldn't help but wonder. This kid usually liked to chat with him. What happened today? Could it be that Li Xiuning wanted to alienate himself? However, there was no need to worry. If that was the case, he would have no choice but to leave him alone.
According to the development process of Luo Yu's time and space, Yang Guang was about to conquer Liaodong in the seventh year of Daye. More than two million soldiers and civilians were defeated in Liaodong City. The following year, he sent troops to Liaodong, but was destroyed by Yang Xuangan's rebellion. In ten years, he conquered Liaodong three times.
It put the good Sui Empire in danger, but it also allowed Liaodong and Korea to negotiate peace and recognize the Sui Dynasty as the suzerainty.
The Sui Dynasty conquered Liaodong three times, and its vitality was severely damaged. In the seventh year of its great cause, Wang Bo staged an uprising in Shandong with a song "The Death Song of Wuxiang Liaodong", which opened the door to the thirty-sixth route of rebellion against the king and the seventy-twoth route of uprising.
The prologue also sounded the death knell of the Sui Dynasty.
Luo Yu has always had sympathy for Yang Guang. He was a great emperor and a great strategist. Unfortunately, his impatient personality killed him. In the end, he pointed at his head: Good head.
, whoever deserves to be beheaded will die and the country will be destroyed. All his achievements during his reign gave Li Tang a huge advantage.
What would Yang Guang do in this time and space? Luo Yu didn't know, but he heard that he was preparing for war at this time, stepping up the production of winter clothes, and grain and grass had arrived in Zhuo County. All this information proved that Yang Guang in this time and space was also preparing for the East.
Conquer and move towards the end of his deserved destiny.
Li Xiuning finally came to see Luo Yu. He came in person. After getting on the carriage, he knelt down in front of Luo Yu and said with a smile: "I am so excited to join the army. I must have read this book "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" several times!"
Luo Yu said embarrassedly: "General, to be honest, except for "The Art of War" by Sun Tzu, I have never read any of your books..."
This is the truth. Even before, Luo Yu had never read the original version of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" and only learned a little bit of information. As for "Zuo Zhuan" and "Han Shu", he had never read the original version of "Three Kingdoms".
I haven't seen it, but I have watched "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" several times.
Li Xiuning said in surprise: "Then what books do you usually read?"
Luo Yu smiled and said: "I don't know if the ones my grandfather collected are unique ones that I haven't seen in the general's place, such as "Three Character Classic", "Hundred Family Surnames", "Thousand Character Classic" and so on."
Li Xiuning said: "I have never heard of these books. Can you please join the army and write them down silently for study?"
Luo Yu said: "General, these three books are called the Three Books of Enlightenment by Grandpa Shixia. If they can be popularized, they will definitely be a great contribution to the benefit of the people! I will write them down and give them to the general." After saying this, he immediately spread out the paper.
, picked up the brush and was about to grind the ink, Li Xiuning started grinding the ink.
Luo Yu handed over his hand and began to write the "Three Character Classic" silently from memory. Of course, Luo Yu tried his best to erase or delete the character who should not appear in this era. He finished writing it in a short while, although it was deleted.
Part of it, but the general idea has not changed. Li Xiuning took it and read it over and over again. At this time, Luo Yu's second "Hundred Family Surnames" had been written silently. As for "The Thousand-Character Essay", it was too difficult to understand, Luo Yu
Yu really couldn't memorize it. The first two articles were memorized for the competition. However, it seems that I have photos on my phone. I remember to take screenshots and save them. I will copy them again when I have time.
After Li Xiuning copied it in her regular script, she felt a huge stir in her heart. These two articles were easy to understand and were much better than the current enlightenment books. As Luo Yu said, if they could be popularized, they would really benefit the world.
What a great contribution to the people. When she saw Luo Yuji put down his pen and stood aside in a daze, she hurriedly asked: "Is there another article?"
Luo Yu smiled bitterly and said: "General, I really can't memorize the other article. I'll think about it slowly while I'm on duty, and I can always remember it."
Li Xiuning said: "It's okay, join the army and think about it slowly. Having these two articles is already a great achievement, so I won't bother you with thinking about the article..." Before he could finish his words, he got up and got off the carriage and walked towards her carriage.
Luo Yu looked at her retreating back and shook his head. How did this girl from such a prosperous family become a general? The rest is not urgent. It is better not to write the "Thousand Character Essay" immediately, it is too shocking.
Already.
The team kept moving forward. Luo Yu had been tortured by sorghum rice for several days. He didn't eat and had nothing else to eat. In order not to eat this poor sorghum rice anymore, he collected the steamed buns that he couldn't finish for breakfast. He was hungry.
After eating it, he broke off a piece and roasted it on the fire to relieve the pain of hunger. All the sorghum rice was given to Shan'er, the little glutton, and Shan'er was asked to keep it a secret for him and not tell Li Xiuning, lest she would try her best to give it to Luo again.
Yu brought him food and asked Luo Yu to do something special.
When we arrived at Daheba that day, the Ziwu River crossed the mountains. The narrow river surface was frozen. Li Xiuningan waited to detect the thickness of the ice to see if the carriage could pass safely. The team stopped and Luo Yu got off.
The carriage was blown by the cold wind and shivered. After staying in the warm carriage for a long time, it was no longer used to the cold wind. Luo Yu admired the dozen military leaders for this. They had been riding since they set off until now.
On horseback, if Li Xiuning didn't want to write something, she would accompany him.
He gritted his teeth and held on for ten seconds. After gradually adapting to the outside temperature, it was no longer so cold. Looking around, there was hot steam coming out thirty or forty meters to the right. It seemed to be a natural hot spring. Luo Yu
Calling Shan'er, we walked on the slippery and icy road to the hot spring.
This is a hot spring pool that is ten square meters in size. There is no ice or snow covering the surrounding area for more than ten meters. Luo Yu reached out and touched the temperature of the water. It was not hot, and it was only about 30 or 40 degrees. The sky was gray, and there was another heavy snowfall.
It's in the making.
Ask Shan'er to call Li Xiuning and say to her: "General, it's getting late. I suggest setting up camp here today. Most of the sergeants have frostbite. It's better to expand the geothermal pool here and let everyone soak in it."
Relieve the pain of long-distance marches."
Li Xiuning frowned and said: "The scouts have just received news that the Ziwu River flows very fast on weekdays, and it has frozen recently. The carriage may not be able to pass. We can camp here. There should be another heavy snowfall tonight. I hope we can pass smoothly tomorrow."
.”
She turned around and gave the order to set up camp. Li Xiaogong asked the sergeants from the sinking camp to dig a large pit of 100 square meters and three feet deep, and then introduced the hot spring water. After the water level in the original pool dropped, a general from Fenshui Camp
Carrying a shovel, I jumped into the water, and soon it started to bubble. The water in the spring was increasing at a visible speed.
The soldiers of the sunken camp dug a drainage ditch and directed the water to the low-lying land nearby to prevent the hot water from flowing directly to the Ziwu River and causing the river to freeze. Soldiers had already set up tents around the hot spring pool, and the large pool
A small pond was dug next to it. After the bottom of the pond was spread with cloth, a small tent was set up. This should be prepared for Li Xiuning.
Each battalion took a bath in the hot springs in batches under the leadership of the military leader. The sound of inhaling was heard one after another. It must be too comfortable. Just when Luo Yu wanted to go down and have a taste, he was told that Li Xiuning was waiting for him in the Chinese army's tent, and he did not dare
Wait a minute and quickly come to the Chinese army's tent.
Li Xiuning was not the only one in the tent, Li Xiaogong was also there. He looked very unhappy. Opposite him sat a white-faced, beardless man in his thirties, dressed in brocade, who seemed to be a eunuch in the palace.
After Luo Yu came in, the eunuch raised his eyes and immediately lowered his head to drink tea. Li Xiuning asked Luo Yu to sit down and said: "Luo Canjun, this is Mr. Liu, the palace manager in charge of procurement. He came to our army today to ask for help."
For a hand-made one, how much do you think I should pay?"
Luo Yu was stunned. This was a soldier returning from an expedition. A purchasing manager came to the army openly to ask for handicrafts. It was really ridiculous. Anyway, Luo Yu had never heard of such a thing, including in his time and space.
When he came back to his senses, he was puzzled. He could just give him the figure. Why did he call me here? His mind turned around and he felt relieved. He cupped his hands and said: "General, I have not heard about this. General, please let me know."
I am responsible for managing the finances, and I must fulfill my duties. I will give you as much as you say!" Seeing Luo Yu's understanding, Li Xiuning turned to the eunuch and said, "Guard Liu, tell me the number."
When Manager Liu saw Li Xiuning knowing how to advance and retreat like this, and when he saw Li Xiaogong next to him who was about to go berserk, but was stopped by Li Xiuning, he felt very proud: "General Li has fought hard for the country, and has made great achievements. I heard that General Li has wiped out all the Jieli cavalry this time, and he will definitely make a lot of money."
Don’t be short on good things. We don’t want too much. We must give you a hundred taels of gold. When the time comes, it will be good for everyone if we can say a few words of kindness in front of His Majesty.”
Luo Yu was playing a double act with Li Xiuning. After listening to Manager Liu's words, Luo Yu said to Li Xiuning: "General, I have a hundred taels of gold somewhere, but this is a reserve resource for our army. If it is given to Manager Liu at once, the general may not
It’s hard to explain.”
Li Xiuning blinked and said, "Manager Liu, how do you think this can be solved?"
Manager Liu smiled dryly and said: "General, there is one thing you may not know yet. Those troops and horses..."
Li Xiuning was deliberately frightened and said: "Guanshi Liu, this matter cannot be explained clearly. I will explain the whole story to Your Majesty when I get to Chang'an. Luo joins the army, takes the gold, and gives it to Guanshi Liu!"
Li Xiaogong finally couldn't bear it any longer. He stood up and was about to attack Manager Liu, but was scolded by Li Xiuning. He walked out of the tent angrily. Luo Yu saw Li Xiuning wink at him, nodded in understanding, and hurriedly chased Li Xiaogong out.
He left the tent and advised him to wait and see how the general dealt with this evil person.
He went to the munitions department and received one hundred taels of gold. He put it on a tray and covered it with a piece of silk. Luo Yu came to the Chinese army's tent. Without waiting for Li Xiuning to speak, Manager Liu took the tray with both hands, with greed in his eyes.
light.
Luo Yu misplaced his body, causing him to miss. After he stood still, he looked at Luo Yu fiercely, as if he wanted to eat Luo Yu to relieve his hatred. Seeing that Luo Yu had already stepped aside, Li Xiuning said to Manager Liu
: "I forgot to tell you, this gold is a reserve fund. If it disappears for no reason, the general will not be able to convince the public. What should I do if one day in the future they starve due to lack of funds and trigger a mutiny?
"
Manager Liu turned around and asked, "How is the general doing?"
Luo Yu then said: "If there is no other, I just hope that Manager Liu can establish a written record so that the soldiers can have something to say when they ask questions. What do you think?" After hearing this, Manager Liu was silent for a while and said: "Our family
If you don't know how to read, how can you create written evidence?"
Luo Yu said: "This is easy to do. Just write it down. All you need to do is press your fingerprints." After speaking, he opened the silk and found four irregular gold nuggets quietly placed on the plate, as if waving to Manager Liu.
.
Li Xiujing watched Luo Yu play with this ignorant eunuch quietly, her heart was filled with rage and she wished she could cut this sinister man into pieces with a thousand knives to relieve her hatred.
Luo Yu covered the silk cloth back and said, "If Manager Liu refuses to establish a written certificate, I will not dare to give you this gold without authorization. In the future, when the soldiers are hungry, there will be a mutiny, and I will not be able to save my life."
Manager Liu's eyes never left the gold nugget. When he saw Luo Yu covering up the silk cloth, he felt infinite disappointment in his heart. He also knew that setting up a written certificate would give Li Xiuning a handle, and if he didn't set up a written certificate, he would not be able to get the gold.
When he was in a dilemma, Luo Yu said again: "Manager Liu, in fact, there is nothing to worry about. The general wants this document just to let the soldiers know where the money is. You also know that we are an expeditionary army, and we may encounter bandits and robbers tomorrow.
, destroy them and the one hundred taels of gold will be available. Who will care about this little hand-made money then? You are a celebrity around His Majesty, and we don’t have to make you unhappy for this little money. What if you are with His Majesty?
We don’t feel comfortable if someone says something bad about us in front of you.”
Manager Liu thought about it after hearing this. If he doesn't give some guarantee, it's hard for others to give him money. As for saying good or bad things in front of His Majesty, it doesn't all depend on his own mood. After thinking about it, he said: "My family is illiterate, please."
If the general establishes his name as evidence, we can just take our fingerprints."
Luo Yu hurriedly wrote the receipt and read it to them: "His Excellency General Li Xiuning, the leader of the Southern Expedition Jieli Army, voluntarily offered the expedition hand-me-down 100 taels of gold to Liu Jin in the palace to purchase it, and established this as evidence."
After hearing this, Liu Jin nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile: "That's right, our family is not ignorant of praise." After saying that, he pressed his right thumb in the red mud mark next to him, and after it was stained with mud, he pressed it again.
He pressed the fingerprint on the receipt. Luo Yu didn't believe that he was illiterate, because he pressed the fingerprint on the receipt without letting anyone else see it. This didn't seem like something done by an illiterate person.
After Liu Jin pressed his fingerprints and was about to get the plate of gold, Li Xiuning suddenly shouted: "Come here, tie up this ungrateful person. I am going to use him to sacrifice the flag!"
As soon as he finished speaking, two sergeants with swords rushed in from outside the tent and tied up Liu Jin without any explanation. Liu Jin's face was full of fear, his legs were weak, and he was dragged out of the tent by the two sergeants.
The sergeants from all the battalions outside the tent had already gathered. After taking a dip in the hot spring, they all looked at Liu Jin in high spirits, who kept begging for mercy. After Li Xiuning came out of the tent, he ordered his beheading.
The sergeant heard the conversation outside the tent and couldn't bear it anymore. He quickly cut the knife and saw a bloody mess. Liu Jin's head was already placed on a plate and brought over.
Li Xiaogong hurried over again and saw Li Xiuning admiring Liu Jin's dead head, and said hurriedly: "General, are you going to kill him now?"
Li Xiuning said: "Kill. If you don't kill, it's hard to get rid of the hatred in your heart. I'm waiting outside to fight to the death, but they are a bunch of moths who dare to come looking for death!"
He turned to the beheaded soldier and said, "You are responsible for telling all the military leaders what happened." He looked in the direction of the hot spring and said, "You have finished taking a dip in the hot spring, and I am going to take a dip as well.
Luo Canjun, what about you?"
Luo Yu was startled: "General, I'll go back later. Besides, I still have to deal with some things."
Li Xiuning smiled and said no more. She ordered Shan'er to take a change of clothes and enter the small tent. Shan'er stood guard for her outside.
