The Maojin knife from the late Jin Dynasty

Chapter 28 The opening of the Second Battle of Changping

Liu Tai protects the lives of the soldiers as much as possible, and attaches great importance to the thoughts of the soldiers.

Therefore, we discuss military history with these people who are studying the "Book of Han" every week, and constantly guide them to explore the shortcomings of the Jin court and praise the advantages of the Han Dynasty.

The two serve as a strong contrast to constantly awaken these military historians to the national awakening of the Han people.

And through the thoughts of these military historians, they were then passed on to the soldiers of the next level.

The top level is naturally to complete the ideological awakening of the Han nation. Those who are one step closer to at least understand what it means to study "Han Shu" exclusively.

At worst, Liu Tai's requirements are not high. He just hopes that they can learn to read and write as much as possible during the time when there is no war.

Liu Tai knew very well that he needed them to do too many things, but reading and writing were the most basic.

In fact, they followed Liu Tai to the battlefield once, and after experiencing the cruelty of the battlefield, they arranged training for Liu Tai. Although they didn't quite understand why, they were able to accept it obediently.

After all, although Liu Tai did not say the words "sweat more in peacetime and bleed less in war", nothing could make them realize the profoundness of this sentence more than when they actually experienced the battlefield in person.

At this moment, they looked at their comrades around them, especially Liu Tai. At least they could feel the importance of their comrades around them from Liu Tai.

This feeling is like wallowing in society. When knowledge really becomes a bottleneck for one to continue to rise, many people will feel the regret that they did not study well, or that they could have worked harder.

Of course, many people will not have this opportunity. On the one hand, some jobs do not require knowledge, and on the other hand, some people have no chance to regret it.

Therefore, although the battle in Xuushi City was short, the impact of the real deaths and his own killings made this Liangjiazi army, which had just entered the battlefield, become a little less impetuous and a little more calm.

This allows them to be more calm and receptive to military training.

For the training of the soldiers, they would run to exercise before breakfast in the morning. After eating, they would start training on weapons. The weapons were mainly made of wood, and some even removed the sharp spears. They also arranged to get them from Xuushi County. The doctor looked at.

At noon, we had dinner. After eating, we began to talk about "Han Shu". Of course, after the lecture, we let the soldiers rest for two quarters of an hour. In the afternoon, they began to train formations and military formations, both for obedience and for convenience on the battlefield. Set up the formation.

Liu Tai is not the kind of military god who can take the army he has just obtained and then directly ask them to form an array at any time, and put up a 666 at any time. Liu Tai is just a normal person with the ability to command by himself. The deficiencies need to be made up by the soldiers.

Therefore, for the troops with the best formation, Liu Tai will also ask them to summarize their experience, let them summarize and summarize their military history, and then pass it on to other troops for learning, and all other troops who have received this formation experience will Soldiers must salute them.

Of course, if other troops are able to surpass them in the next military rank competition, then the discounts of this troops will be cancelled, the mobile flag will be taken away, and of course, the most important thing is that the treatment of other troops saluting them when they see them will be cancelled. This is only for the best.

At that time, it would be okay if you never had it, but it would be very painful to lose it when you clearly have it.

After completing the formation training, they were able to have dinner and then have a good rest.

After all, the growth of an army does not happen overnight. Liu Tai was very happy to have time to stop and slowly develop his army.

Otherwise, if there is a war all the time, Liu Tai is not afraid that he will not be able to train a tiger and wolf army, but he is afraid that he will not be able to train an army with comprehensive physical, organizational and ideological development, because the battlefield environment will make people jump. Too tight.

Training is like a drop of water, it takes time to consume, so Liu Tai puts his mind on another thing.

Liu Tai came to the Ninth Camp. There was a mixture of dragons and snakes in the Ninth Camp. Military history and doctors accounted for a large part of them, but Liu Tai did not look down upon the remaining people.

For example, people who like mechanics have formed a group to play tricks on me. The goal is to restore the compass car, or even to reduce the compass car.

Don't look at the big guys in the history books like Zhang Heng of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Ma Jun of the Wei State, and Zu Chongzhi of the Southern Qi Dynasty. They are just big guys who can make this thing, making it look like it is very simple to make this thing.

But how can something that can be recorded in the history books be simple? This thing is a bit like the certification of these mechanical masters. If you can make this thing, then you are a master of the mechanical system, and the kind with super hands-on ability.

If you can't do it, you won't even be qualified to be in the history books.

Therefore, facing Liu Tai's unreasonable target, Jie Fei scratched his head and could only work hard to overcome it.

But the good thing is that he led a team to conquer it, unlike those historical figures who relied purely on personal talent.

Liu Tai also tried to get these sideline scholars to search for the "Book of Pansheng". After all, before Jia Sixie, a big farmer, came up with "The Essentials of Qi Min", the "Book of Pansheng" had almost been It is the most complete agricultural science book.

Although Liu Tai didn't know when he would have arable land or when he would start farming, there was nothing wrong with trying to collect books on this category first.

In addition to "Qimin Yaoshu", there are also "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic", "Shui Jing Zhu", and "Treatise on Febrile and Miscellaneous Diseases".

Various reference books Liu Tai will send people to actively collect this information. After all, Yecheng is the capital of Cao Wei, and no one can guarantee whether the old people of Cao Wei here have the technological essence of the Han Dynasty.

Relatively speaking, if you ask for some family scriptures, the children of wealthy families may not be willing to give them their scriptures to copy.

But these reference books are different. These things do not involve struggle, and are relatively classified as miscellaneous studies.

Their value is not as precious as various scriptures, or even the ways of segmenting sentences in various scriptures.

Liu Tai was determined to go to Yecheng to collect, but the actual obstacles he encountered were not that big.

But even if they are relatively not valued by the times, they are a kind of knowledge after all, so they are naturally valuable.

After all, this era is not the 21st century. Knowledge is basically placed in front of you like cabbage. If you are not afraid of learning it, you are not afraid of not being able to learn it. What hinders the continuous deepening of knowledge is precisely the lack of talent of human beings themselves.

Therefore, although Liu Tai is actually very eager for these reference books, he still needs time to collect them all.

For example, if anyone wanted to meet Wang Mi and use these books as a stepping stone, Liu Tai would agree without hesitation.

While Liu Tai was patiently training soldiers in Ye City and looking for various technological inheritances of this era, when the spring came and flowers bloomed next year, Liu Tai heard the news from Wang Mi, and Liu Yuan sent Liu Cong to attack Luoyang.

"This? Aren't we going to attack Shangdang?" Liu Tai asked with some confusion, "Why are we going to attack Luoyang again!"

"I heard that Sima Yue acted rebelliously in the Jin court and expelled a group of guards. All the Jin court military officers who were not ennobled were dismissed. One of them named Zhu Dan escaped and said he was familiar with the layout of the Jin court. So I tried to attack." Wang Mi said.

Liu Tai nodded, but didn't pay too much attention. This kind of attack was more of an attempt. It would be best if it succeeded, but if it couldn't be defeated, it didn't matter.The Xiongnu and Han Dynasty's attack has gradually become a bit similar to the grass-grazing valley during the Song Dynasty.

The Jin Dynasty faced the Xiongnu and Han Dynasty many times, so it was naturally impossible to defeat them in one battle.

In fact, this was also the case. After Liu Cong commanded the troops to capture Liyang, changes began to occur on the Shangdang side, which forced Liu Cong to turn back. Even though he had already captured Yanjin when he received the news, Liu Cong The only option is to retreat.

Because the Shangdang thorn was not removed, the Xiongnu and Han Dynasty did not dare to attack the Jin court with force, because no one knew whether they would be stabbed in the back at any time.

In fact, Liu Yuan's patience with the Shangdang almost reached its extreme. As Liu Cong lost the opportunity to lead the Jin court traitors and returned to the court, the entire Xiongnu and Han kingdom aimed at retaking Shangdang County and Huguan. The plan is fully launched.

"Happy, go and send envoys to the Xiongnu Tiefu clan and Baibu Xianbei to order Liu Hu to attack Jinyang so that Liu Kun cannot escape."

"As ordered!"

"Chang Sheng, you are responsible for my big man's material operation, and you must not neglect anything!"

"As ordered!"

"Zhu Ji, come and send a message to King Mi of Shile, asking them to lead their troops to gather in Huanshi County immediately after receiving the order!"

"As ordered!"

……

Finally, Liu Yuan turned his attention to his son Liu Cong and said, "In this campaign, with the King of Chu as the commander, Wang Mi as his deputy, and Shi Le as the vanguard, we will definitely break through Shangdang County and capture Huguan!"

"My child, you obey!" At this time, Liu Cong saluted Liu Yuan and responded immediately.

Liu He on the side looked at Liu Cong with more or less envy, but there was nothing he could do. He was the prince and could not lead troops into battle.

Soon, as Liu Yuan issued orders one after another and especially held a troop dispatching ceremony, he handed the tiger talisman to Liu Cong in front of everyone's eyes.

At this moment, Liu Cong was able to command three-quarters of the entire Xiongnu and Han army to capture Shangdang.

To be honest, from the moment Liu Yuan handed the Tiger Talisman to Liu Cong's hands, it can be seen that Liu Yuan understood that capturing Shangdang and Huguan this time was secondary. The real threat was not these two places, but Liu Kun and the Jin army. Support from two sides.

In other words, at least according to the reasoning of Liu Yuan and the Intelligence Group, the war to capture Huguan and Shangdang is likely to evolve into a major war surrounding the Taihang Mountains.

That's why he handed over all the military power related to the national destiny and main forces of the Huns and Han Kingdom to his most trusted son.

It was as if a certain monarch in later generations, also named Yuan, when deciding the decisive battle for his family to determine the Central Plains, also handed over the military power of his family to the hands of his second son, whom he could trust.

The edict was soon sent to Wang Mi. Wang Mi asked everyone to discuss the edict. In the end, everyone made a decisive decision to abide by the edict and lead troops to Xuushi County to jointly defeat the enemy. Crusade against Shangdang City.

Because everyone has discussed and discussed it undeniably. Although the current Jin court seems to be shaky, slow and corrupt, internally strife with each other, and externally slow to respond, in the end it is still a complete central court.

If I and others do not defeat the main force of the Jin court and do not break the backbone of the Jin court, then when the Xiongnu and Han Dynasty are destroyed, I and others will still have nowhere to stay.

The current situation is still that the Jin Dynasty is strong, while the Xiongnu and Han Dynasties are weak.

Therefore, Wang Mi directly took [-] soldiers to join Liu Cong this time.

These [-] soldiers are already the elite soldiers in Wang Mi's hands who can really fight. They were slowly selected over a whole year based on Ye City, either through recruitment or coercion.

After all, Wang Mi had come all the way from the rebel army, and he understood to some extent that in a real war, he needed soldiers who obeyed his orders, not numbers of people.

Therefore, in terms of combat effectiveness, these [-] soldiers were at least much stronger than the peasant uprising army that besieged Luoyang.

Liu Tai naturally went out with the army, and all members of Liu Tai's army wore leather armor, which was completely different from other troops in terms of momentum.

After all, one year has passed. The other troops are eating chaff and drinking water. Liu Tai's troops have three meals a day. The other commanders are enjoying the fun. Liu Tai is training with his soldiers. The other troops are basically muddle along, but Liu Tai The troops were fully armed by Liu Tai from three aspects: physical, organizational and ideological.

Thanks to Liu Tai's consistent training over the past year, Wang Mi also felt that Liu Tai's troops would be his trump card, so he asked Wang Zhang to replenish Liu Tai's troops with armor, making them the strongest ace troops in his hands.

Of course, when it comes to the battlefield, the task assigned to Liu Tai will naturally be the most dangerous.

Wang Mi looked at the soldiers under his command with a bit of pride. Although he was defeated by Jin Ting at the foot of Luoyang a year ago, it was only more than a year later and he was already stronger than he was last year. .

However, when Shi Le arrived with his [-]-step cavalry, Wang Mi couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Because Shi Le did not waste any time during this year. In Wang Mi's opinion, Shi Le's army was not inferior to his own army.

The only thing that didn't change was Shi Le's attitude when he saw Wang Mi. He was still so humble and polite, with his eyebrows lowered and his head lowered.

Wang Mi didn't pay attention. After meeting up with Shi Le, the army entered the Taihang Mountains and then gathered with Liu Cong in Xuushi County.

Such a big move by the Xiongnu and Han Kingdom could not be hidden from Liu Kun, who was always concerned about it.

Originally, he wanted to lead the army in person in a decisive battle with the Xiongnu and Han Kingdom, but because Liu Hu led the Tiefu Xiongnu army to threaten Jinyang, he had to stay and guard his hometown.

While sending envoys to ask for help from Sima Yue, he also spotted the opportunity to implement a plan to attack from both sides. At the same time, he selected troops and made preparations to assist the Shangdang.

At this time, in the camp in Xuans County, Liu Cong looked at the map and said to Wang Mi and Shi Le:

"Shangdang and Huguan, they have been preparing for a year, but we are afraid that it will be difficult to conquer.

Let's surround first without attacking.If you want to fight, fight the reinforcements sent by Liu Kun first! "
