…
Lu Ziming, twenty-one years old, is one of the four generals under Yue Shaomu's command and is also Yue Shaomu's most valued subordinate.
He came from a poor family and fought fiercely when he was young. He became a tyrant in the city and often caused trouble. After being persuaded by Jiang Xun, he decided to join the army to support his seriously ill mother and five younger siblings.
At first, he served under Lu Su. Because Lu Ziming had unique strategic vision, he was deeply appreciated by Lu Su. Later, he was recommended by Lu Su and sent to the Far East Military School for further study. He was sixteen years old.
Two years later, Lu Ziming graduated with honors, but did not return to Jiangnan and take up the position of deputy battalion of Jiangnan Camp arranged by the school. Instead, he followed Yue Shaomu to join Zhang Lie's camp and became a staff officer with the army.
After the War of Japan, Yue Shaomu led the army independently. When training the new army, Lu Ziming's proposal coincided with that of Yue Shaomu, so Yue Shaomu valued it very much.
Lu Ziming was easy-going and courteous when dealing with others. He also lived in harmony with his subordinates and colleagues. He also had a very vicious tactical and strategic vision. In a simulation exercise, he once proposed the idea of dividing his troops into separate routes and bypassing Lake Baikal to capture the center of the Yan Kingdom. He was looked upon with admiration by the senior executives of Far East.
Several times, senior soldiers such as Yang Kaishan, Yang Youhuai, and Han Feng invited Lu Ziming to join the army as a general. Yang Kaishan even offered to be the successor of "Shanziying", but Lu Ziming declined all of them.
In this battle in Nanyang, Lu Ziming also followed Yue Shaomu to participate in the crusade against the Kingdom of Jin.
When making strategic deployment at sea, Lu Ziming suggested that Yue Shaomu "go to Jing'ao as a base and attack the divine capital as the goal" in order to destroy the Jin Kingdom in one fell swoop, which won Yue Shaomu's appreciation.
Now hearing that Yue Shaomu asked about the next strategy, Lu Ziming said directly: "Why does Commander Yue need to ask so much? We must win the border with Ao. This is South Australia's only foreign trade outlet.
Containing this place is equivalent to restraining the Kingdom of Jin from seeking material channels, and it can also continuously transport our army's logistics supplies here.
To put it ten thousand steps back, even if the war is unfavorable, as long as the territory of Ao and Hong Kong are still in the hands of the Han army and we advance and retreat in an orderly manner, the Jin soldiers will have nothing to do. "
Yue Shaomu sighed and shook his head slightly.
Lu Ziming was startled: "Commander Yue, if there is anything wrong with what I said, please correct me."
Yue Shaomu said solemnly: "Ziming, what you said is correct. It is an established strategy that we must capture Jing'ao. So what will happen after Jing'ao is taken?"
Lu Ziming: "Naturally, we will send our troops north and coordinate with Admiral Gan's navy to seize the divine capital."
Yue Shaomu: "Ziming, if I recommend your strategy to the imperial court, your strategy can be awarded the rank of major general. It will be easy to lead an army to suppress Shuo alone."
As soon as these words came out, Lu Ziming was surprised and said: "Commander Yue, why did you say this?"
The rank of Major General of the Han Dynasty is a military rank that many leading generals dream of. This is not a fake title.
But for Lu Ziming, the rank of major general is far from enough. He has the rank of generals Bai Qi and Huo Qing as his ideals. A mere major general cannot satisfy him at all.
Lu Ziming actually didn't attach much importance to power and prestige, but who allowed him to be in the Han army?
Without ambition, you cannot become a humerus in the army.
Lu Ziming is also a mortal. After staying in the army for a long time, he cannot avoid these commonplaces.
Looking at his eager eyes, Yue Shaomu said: "Ziming, you still have a lot to learn. Let's go to Macao and Hong Kong first."
…
Belahai led a thousand officers and soldiers to the border defense line overnight. However, when he arrived in the inner city, he was shocked by what he saw.
The decadent naval officers and soldiers, the trembling gentry in the inner city, the lifeless Irimu, etc.
After understanding the course of the war, Bella Hai slapped Irimu in the face angrily: "You bastard, what a good line of defense, you actually lost it in an hour?
I will definitely read your copy in front of the emperor to punish you for slacking off! "
Irimu covered his face and said with aggrieved eyes: "Master Governor, this battle is impossible to fight. Dongyi's magic is extremely sharp, and their soldiers are as brave as tigers. I have never seen such a strong army!"
"Thousands of people were driven away like lost dogs by a group of people, and you still have the nerve to quibble? Believe it or not, I will execute you on the spot right now!"
Belahai was angry and anxious. If the coastal defenses were lost, he, the governor, would definitely be implicated. He would have to find a way to regain the coastal defenses no matter what.
"I order you to immediately lead the troops to retake the outer defense line! If there is any trouble in the inner city, you and I will not be able to survive!"
Just when Belahai forced Irimu to attack back, there was a sudden sound of a cannon.
I saw a flaming cannonball in mid-air turning into an arc and falling down, exploding immediately.
In an instant, six or seven Jin officers and soldiers around them were blown away by exploding grenades.
Bella Hai and Irimu quickly leaned down to survive.
This was the first time Beirahai saw the power of artillery, specifically mortars and grenades.
The ability of grenades to break through cities is average, but their destructive power against living forces is unparalleled.
One grenade after another exploded in the crowd, and the originally silent garrison camp immediately erupted into bursts of noise.
In the final analysis, the Kingdom of Jin was founded by barbaric indigenous peoples, and coupled with the policy of obscuring the people, both officers and soldiers and civilians have a natural fear of the unknown.
As soon as the artillery fired, everyone was in panic all day long, and they no longer had the fighting spirit to take up arms to defend themselves against foreign enemies.
"The magic method! Dongyi's magic method!"
As a soldier in the crowd shouted, the garrison camp in the inner city exploded collectively in an instant.
Everyone was crying and howling to leave this place of right and wrong, fearing that if they were too late, they would be bombarded into mud by artillery fire.
Faced with such a scene, Belahai's mind went blank, but Qi Jing pulled him up and said: "Your Majesty Governor, Dongyi has the help of demons. We can't fight with them head-on. Let's avoid the edge for the time being and write to the court before doing anything." decision!
Belahai, who had long lost his opinion, nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "Yes, yes, you are right, this is beyond human power, it is up to the Lord Long Live to make the decision, retreat quickly, retreat quickly!"
However, how could any of the rebellious troops withdraw immediately?
The officers and soldiers of the bombing camp will not care whether you are an officer or a general at this time. Anyone who blocks your escape will be chopped down with a knife.
Just as Bellahei was about to jump onto the carriage, he was pulled down by an officer and fell to the ground.
"Bold! This is the Governor's vehicle, why don't you get off the horse quickly!"
Qi Jing wanted to show off his power, but unexpectedly, the indigenous officer raised his knife and pointed it at him: "What nonsense, Governor? I'm almost dead, and you still care whether you are the Governor or not? If you are wise, hurry up and help me. Suddenly, I I’ll chop you down too!”
Qi Jing immediately shut up. He was afraid that he would offend this guy and do something extraordinary. He could only help Beilahai up and watched helplessly as a group of officers and soldiers who were usually like ants drove the governor's carriage and drove away from the crowd. go.
"Let's go!"
Bella Hai can no longer control so much at this time, and just wants to leave the right and wrong place of Jiao'ao and Hong Kong first.
But at this moment, Zhu Heng climbed up the city wall and shouted: "You will die!"
After saying that, he jumped down from the city wall and knocked down a group of officers and soldiers.
Immediately afterwards, more than a hundred Han officers and soldiers filed in from the city wall and took control of the city gate immediately.
The moment the city gate was opened, Xu Sheng, who had been waiting for a long time, gave an order, and a thousand Han troops roared into the city.
When Beilahai, Yilimu and Qijing saw this scene, they were immediately frightened, and they pushed through the crowd like crazy and ran outside.
Zhu Heng led his army to pursue and attack all the way behind, and the inner city was bleeding profusely...
