There are three military camps outside Zhangye City: West Camp, Beida Camp, and South Camp. Beida Camp is the headquarters of the Victory Army. The soldiers of the Victory Army were elite warriors from various counties and armies in Liangzhou. They initially numbered 50,000 to 60,000 people. Later, Murong Sanzang selected the soldiers based on the standards of Wei soldiers and trapped camps. This elite army went through many cruel processes. After many tests and eliminations, only 25,000 people were left.
The eliminated soldiers secretly but sincerely became the second-level main battle soldiers. They are not weak. No matter which army they are in, they are absolutely strong. However, among the strong, there are strong ones who stay. The 25,000 soldiers are too powerful. In terms of individual combat capabilities and personal qualities, they are completely a bunch of invincible humanoid monsters.
As the war approached, this elite division was temporarily divided.
As the founder of the Victory Army, Yang Ji naturally knew how useful it was to have an extremely brave "special force" on the battlefield at critical moments. Therefore, as soon as the military meeting ended, he handed over 10,000 victorious troops to Zhang Xutuo, Li Jing, and Murong Sanzang, and asked them to take them to the eastern battlefield. Another 10,000 people also followed Xue Shixiong and Qian Shixiong to the Dangjin Mountain Pass Camp in Shanshan. In this way, the troops were divided one by one, so there were currently only 5,000 people left in the military camp.
"Kill, kill, kill!" The morning fog had not yet dispersed, and the majestic shouts of killing resounded through the sky. Five thousand soldiers of the Victory Army, led by generals at all levels, began a day of training.
The temporary leader of this army was Wei Yunqi, a "weak scholar". The long weapon of this "weak scholar" was originally a horse spear, but he found that the horse spear's killing effect and deterrence were far less satisfying than the broadsword, and the horse spear was not as effective as the broadsword. After piercing the cavalry passing by, it was very troublesome to draw it out, and you had to use short weapons to fend off the weapons of the enemies next to you, so you replaced the horse sword with a mo knife. (Note)
The Mo Dao is a long, straight sword. When Wei Yunqi replaced the knife shaft with a flexible but hard pole, he could still use the horse fighting technique. The difference was that the Mo Dao's blade was longer and could be swung with one stroke. , the enemy's men and horses were all broken into pieces, and there was no need to pull them out from the enemy's corpse. At the same time, he was inspired by Pei Xingyan and replaced the horizontal knife used in close combat with an identical hammer.
This kind of hammer has a blade growing out of the top of its head, which can also stab people.
He walked on the school grounds on horseback carrying a specially made Mo Dao, watching the soldiers sweating profusely and taking the trouble to practice battle formations.
A patrolman came hurriedly on horseback, raised his hands to Wei Yunqi from a distance and said, "General Wei."
"What's the matter?" Wei Yunqi glanced at this man and asked loudly.
The patrolman replied: "General Wei, the king is here!"
Wei Yunqi asked: "The king is really here?"
"Exactly!" the patrolman said with excitement.
"I'll greet you!" Wei Yunqi was overjoyed. Although Yang Ji was the founder of this victorious army and had unrivaled prestige in the army, he rarely came to Beida Camp. Most of the training matters were done by Murong Sanzang. Responsible.
The conquest of Tuyuhun has been confirmed for these days, and he has not even shown his face, but today he suddenly came early, which shows that the king is about to raise an army. @ESSENTIAL\/SHUKEG·No mistake first release~~
War represents meritorious service and wealth!
Who doesn't he like, from top to bottom of the Liangzhou army and officials of all sizes in Liangzhou?
"No need!" Amidst the rumble of horse hooves, Yang Ji came with a group of soldiers on horseback. He was riding a white BMW Phantom, followed by a big black horse carrying armor, black gold, and wind and snow bows.
Liangzhou was a horse-raising center in the Sui Dynasty. There were at least five to six million war horses in the racecourse, so the most important thing for the Liangzhou army was war horses. Yang Ji had many divine horses, but there were only six commonly used ones. .
The black horse is called Mercedes-Benz, the bay horse is called Hongqi, the black horse is called Dongfeng, the camouflage piebald horse is called Hummer, the common gray horse is called Volkswagen, and the handsome white horse is called Phantom. The first five horses are used in battles. When he puts on dark armor, he is not so eye-catching; while the more conspicuous phantom is mainly used to look cool. However, each war horse is equipped with a dark-colored anti-arrow vest. If Phantom puts it on, he will "disappear into the crowd". It's not a war at this time, so there is no need to put on the "anti-arrow jacket" on the horses.
"Wei Yunqi, the last general, comes to see the king!" Wei Yunqi hung the Mo Dao on the victory hook and saluted Yang Ji with his fists on his horse.
"No courtesy!" Yang Jicheng walked up to the horse and asked Wei Yunqi with a smile: "How is this army?"
Wei Yunqi looked at it. (This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 586: Strong soldiers and generals
He said: "The army has extremely high self-discipline and does not need the supervision of the general."
Yang Ji glanced around. The densely packed soldiers were training as if no one was around. Looking at these heroic and high-spirited warriors, the troubles caused by the imperial court and the Wei Wang family were swept away, and overwhelming pride surged in his chest!
"Your Majesty, do you want to give me a lecture?" Wei Yunqi asked.
"No need, no need!" Yang Ji shook his head. If he was a good speaker, he would naturally be able to boost the morale of the armed forces through his speech, but his eloquence was not as good as that of Liu Bang and Xiao Hu. It would make the soldiers feel bored, so for so many years of leading the troops, he had never made a long speech before going on an expedition.
He looked at Wei Yunqi's specially made Mo Dao, frowned and asked: "You have been learning the horse sword for so long, and suddenly you switch to this thing, can you do it?"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, this thing is much better than the horse." Wei Yunqi pondered for a long time, and then said with his hands: "The eastern battlefield is divided into four battlefields, will our western battlefield also divide our troops?"
Wei Yunqi fought in five battles. The first one was when he participated in the offensive and defensive battle of Datong City led by Zhang Xutuo. The second time was when Yang Ji attacked Lintao Dangxiang. As Liangzhou Li Cao, he sent an envoy to Baishui Qiang and led the Po Chaoqi, Yang Tie and others attacked Tuoba Ningcong's team. From then on, he officially abandoned literature and joined the military; the third time was when he led the Qiang soldiers to attack Dangjin Pass in Tuyuhun, cutting off Shanshan Qiemo's peace. The connection with the hinterland of Tuyuhun made Murong Zhao of Sansha City a lone army; the fourth time was when he fought against Dahu again, he led a partial army to confront Murong Bei's main force in Bailangyuan, and successfully killed Murong Bei and Murong Yan's father and son. The two halves created an opportunity for Li Jing to win; the fifth time was when He Qi Bi Zuo Yi led his army northward and repelled Xue Yantuo who was advancing eastward in the Ubusu Lake area, making the Great Lakes area completely fall into the hands of the Sui Dynasty. Became a colony of the Sui Dynasty.
Except for the tragic victory in Bailangyuan, he easily completed the tasks assigned by Yang Ji in the other four battles. Among the current Liangzhou Army, Wei Yunqi is a general who is good at fighting and has the ability to stand alone.
But it was the arduous battle in Bailangyuan that made Wei Yunqi deeply aware of his own shortcomings. Based on his current combat level, ability to coordinate the entire battle, and judgment of the national situation of the two countries, it is to let Wei Yunqi He found it very difficult to be the commander of a partial division, let alone the commander of the entire army.
There is no way to learn these extremely critical and important combat common sense and combat rules from military books and history books. First update @ But Yang Ji, a commander who was younger than him, made him admire him very much, especially his performance in the Northeast battle was beyond his reach.
In the eyes of Liangzhou military and political officials, the Northeast battlefield is Yang Ji's real battle to become a god. Just because of that battle, the whole body was affected. In addition to the Sui Dynasty, it was also involved in the seven major forces of the Eastern Turks, Khitan, Xi tribe, Sumo Mohe, Bodu Mohe, Nanshiwei, and Goguryeo. The situation was and the battle situation are extremely complex.
At that time, Yang Ji was in an unfavorable situation with only a few soldiers. If he was a little careless in some aspect, the entire situation in Northeast China would collapse immediately, and Youzhou would fall into a protracted war. War will also happen immediately.
However, Yang Ji not only completed the task of the court and destroyed the Khitan, but also used his strength to capture the rising Sumo Mohe and Xi tribes, forcing Bodu Mohe and Nanshi Wei to surrender to the Sui Dynasty, and finally made Goguryeo After suffering a huge dumb loss, they also forced the Eastern/Turkic forces out of the northeast corner.
This magnificent and far-sighted view of the overall situation, great courage, combat level, and post-war results completely transcend the scope of a military commander. Overall, it was far more exciting and stunning than any previous battle.
When Liangzhou analyzed, dissected, and deduced the battle in detail afterwards, all military and political officials felt terrified for Yang Ji. At the same time, these strong men in Liangzhou also had the admiration and awe of Yang Ji as "powerful and incomparable".
Wei Yunqi felt his own shortcomings, so if he had a choice this time, he would rather be a young general beside Yang Ji, so that he could learn Yang Ji's fighting skills, how to cooperate with other troops tacitly, and how to lead the way as a commander. Look at the national power of our two countries from a perspective.
Yang Ji himself did not feel much about the impact of the Northeastern Campaign on Liangzhou and the overall changes in military and political officials. He simply thought Wei Yunqi was asking about tactics, so he said: "Sun Tzu Youyun: "The force of troops is impermanent, and the water is impermanent. shape. He who is able to win due to changes in the enemy is called a god. (This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 586: Strong soldiers and generals
We haven't even sent out any troops. How do I know now whether to divide our troops? "
After looking at Wei Yunqi, Yang Ji smiled calmly: "The enemy will not fight according to our established tactics. Before fighting, it is enough to have a general combat policy and combat ideas. If detailed tactics are drawn up too early, Not only is it useless, it is harmful. Moreover, Xue Shixiong and Qian Shixiong are fully prepared to make us invincible, so we can make arrangements as appropriate when we arrive in Shanshan."
Wei Yunqi saw that Yang Ji was as thoughtful as ever but without any structure, so he no longer struggled with specific tactics. He thought for a moment, then tentatively asked softly: "Your Majesty, we in Liangzhou are called the King Wei family and the Liangzhou system by the court officials. Regardless of whether we admit it or not, they will think so. I don't know, Your Majesty. Do you have any opinion on this?"
When Yang Ji heard this, he thought of what Yang Shanhui said yesterday afternoon, and said frankly to Wei Yunqi: "You are right! "Whether we admit it or not, they will think so"; in this case, then I will consider myself the leader of the King Wei clan and the Liangzhou clan. You are the first person to come to Liangzhou with me, and you are also my indispensable general."
After Wei Yunqi heard Yang Ji's words, he held up his hands with great joy and said: "Thank you so much, Your Majesty! I will definitely live up to your trust in the end. Update without error@"
Wei Yunqi used to be a waiter in Tongshe. Because of his upright temperament and disdain for flattery, he was ostracized in Menxia Province and was like an idler. If he had not followed Yang Ji to Liangzhou, he would have been like this in his life. .
After Yang Ji's strong rise, there was gradually talk of the Wei Wang Clan and the Liangzhou Clique in the court. So far, the Wei Wang Clan has become an extremely powerful faction in the officialdom, making every political force vigilant and trying to suppress it; He also always regarded himself as a direct member of the King Wei family, but Yang Ji, the "leader", seemed to have no intention of forming a clique; this made Wei Yunqi feel uneasy, confused, and panicked with no direction or foundation. After listening to Yang Ji's words, he felt energetic and inspired.
Yang Ji said with a smile: "Not only are you brave enough to be invincible, but you are also very talented in the military. As long as you fight a few more battles, you will definitely become a famous and feared commander of the alien race. You can not only protect our peace in the Sui Dynasty, but also have great talent in the military." You can expand your territory and be famous for future generations. In addition, your talent in government affairs exceeds more than 90% of the officials in Liangzhou. As long as it takes more than ten years to settle down, you will definitely become a model for generals and ministers. But it takes time to settle down. , it must be a long and arduous process, so you must work hard.”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your advice. I will definitely keep it in mind in the future." Although Wei Yunqi is older than Yang Ji, Wei Yunqi is sincerely convinced by his achievements. Yang Ji's "preaching" not only did not disgust him, but actually Very excited.
The army is about to go on an expedition, and the training intensity of the victorious army is far less than usual. While Yang Ji and Wei Yunqi were talking, today's morning training had already ended before they finished their conversation. The soldiers, under the leadership of generals at all levels, had already The sequence spreads out. But not long after, Yang Ji heard a thunderous cheer.
"What's going on?" Yang Ji asked Wei Yunqi.
Wei Yunqi smiled and replied: "Your Majesty, the training intensity is now less than half as usual. The soldiers are idle and have big competitions from time to time. Sometimes the generals compete alone, sometimes they compete with each other, between brigades and brigades, between teams, and between teams. Competition, and the prize is to imitate the barking of dogs. The venue for the competition is the left school field."
"Really? Let's go take a look!" Yang Ji suddenly became interested and rode towards the left school field.
I saw three floors inside and three floors around the left school field, and the soldiers watching continued to cheer and applaud. Yang Ji was riding on his horse, looking over the soldiers' heads, and saw Xue Wanche, who stayed in Zhangye, and the minority general Po Chaoqi fighting Pei Xingyan.
Xue Wanche's long weapon was a horse sword, and his powerful long weapon was a broadsword. The sword's blade was rolling and the sword was as bright as lightning. The two men were fierce, one on the left and one on the right surrounding Pei Xingyan in the middle to attack fiercely.
Although Pei Xingyan is young, he is calm and calm when fighting two generals alone. He can block the opponent's attack with simple moves.
Yang Ji nodded secretly as he saw this. Pei Xingyan was worthy of being named as one of the most powerful enemies in history, and his understanding of martial arts was far beyond anyone's. I remember that during the Northeast battlefield, Pei Xingyan's combat skills were full of craftsmanship and deliberateness; but Nowadays, all the bells and whistles are gone.
Each move has become very practical and practical. Although it has not yet reached the level of reducing complexity to simplicity, it is moving in the direction of simplicity. (This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 586: Strong soldiers and generals
Moving forward strongly is a very gratifying and huge progress for Pei Xingyan.
At this time, there was only a loud "dang" sound, and Pei Xingyan knocked Pei Xingyan's big sword out of his hands. Pouchoqi had no choice but to drive his horse out of the battle; only Xue Wanche was left on the school field to fight Pei Xingyan alone.
Although Xue Wanche is brave, Pei Xing is like an enemy, and his strength is not just as simple as one plus one or two. When he dealt with Xue Wanche with all his strength, in less than ten moves, Ma Shan managed to get rid of Xue Wanche's Ma Shan, and drove straight in, firmly pressing against Xue Wanche's chest.
"General Pei is awesome, I lost!" Xue Wanche, who is also a man who can take things and let them go, said cheerfully.
"Beautiful!" Yang Ji shouted loudly. His "beautiful" was not only a compliment to Pei Xingyan for his strong martial arts, but also an appreciation for Xue Wanche's simple surrender.
The soldiers in front looked back after hearing this, and found that the king was actually standing with them watching the competition. Many of them did not know Yang Ji, but the banner of the personal soldiers revealed Yang Ji's identity. When everyone recognized Yang Ji, their eyes suddenly became wild.
After being stunned and surprised for a long time, the soldiers came to their senses, saluted excitedly, and shouted loudly: "See you, Your Majesty!"
The soldiers of the Sui Dynasty and Liangzhou were not afraid of hardship, tiredness, or death, but they were afraid of not receiving the honor of being a soldier. What the soldiers wanted was not a "nanny" like their parents who asked for warmth and care, but a good general.
When they evaluate a good general, the first criterion is not sharing the joys and sorrows of his soldiers and loving them as sons; it is the ability to win battles and bring them home alive. As for sharing the joys and sorrows with the soldiers and loving them as sons and daughters, it is best if you have them, and it is not harmful if you don't have them. _o_m
There is no doubt that Yang Ji is a victorious general who can win battles, bring glory and benefits to his soldiers, and has clear rewards and punishments. He usually strives for practical benefits for soldiers and their families. When it comes to war, he can set an example and share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers. Therefore, a commander like Yang Ji is undoubtedly the most perfect commander in the minds of soldiers.
Being able to serve under such a commander and be his soldier is what all soldiers dream of.
The soldiers shouted and moved out of the way; Yang Ji responded with a smile and clasped his fists, and walked forward along the road. When he reached the middle, Pei Xingyan, Po Chaoqi, and Xue Wanche, who had finished their martial arts competition, quickly dismounted from their horses and stepped forward to salute. : "The general will finally meet the king!"
"No courtesy!" Yang Ji raised his hand, waited until they were level, and said with a smile: "The three generals fought very well, very exciting!"
"Your Majesty, how about you compare with General Pei!" Someone shouted loudly from the crowd.
Yang Ji's bravery and prowess are no secret in the army. The soldiers around him suddenly shouted in agreement: "Your Majesty, let's compare with General Pei!"
"Your Majesty, let's compete with General Pei!"
"Your Majesty, let's compete with General Pei!"
"..."
Yang Ji had no choice but to pull out a command flag and wave it high, and the noisy voice immediately disappeared without a trace.
When the audience quieted down, Yang Ji said loudly: "I am not a person who is good at martial arts. At most, I have natural supernatural power and some fighting skills. In order to maintain my perfect image, let's forget it!"
Wei Yunqi, Pei Xingyan, Po Chaoqi, Xue Wanche and other generals, as well as the accompanying Li Daliang, Zong Luohu, Zhu Can and others, turned black when they heard this.
Yang Ji was completely a "non-human". He not only achieved admirable military achievements, but also had ridiculously strong martial arts skills. Any one of them was tortured miserably by Yang Ji.
As far as the current generals of the Liangzhou Army are concerned, only Xue Ju can completely defeat Yang Ji in cavalry combat. Although Yuchi Gong has made rapid progress, he can only tie with him now; and in terms of infantry combat and fighting, Yang Ji is absolutely the best. An invincible existence whose various destructive tricks make it difficult for people to guard against.
With such a level, you even say that you are not good at martial arts. How do you expect everyone to live?
Yang Ji is not being pretentious, nor is he afraid of losing; it is unnecessary and meaningless. After all, when one reaches his level as an official, the level of martial arts, winning or losing in competitions are actually completely unimportant. But for the soldiers, the generals fighting on the front line are the anchor in their hearts. Generals really need a reputation for bravery and an "invincible" image, so that they can lead their troops better.
. (This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 586: Strong soldiers and generals
So it didn't matter if everyone competed and played in private, but in front of the public, Yang Ji couldn't try his best to attack the generals' reputation and prestige just to show off his personal prestige, so he simply said that he was "not good at martial arts".
The soldiers saw that he was unwilling to take action and felt very sorry!
Yang Ji's anger sank into his Dantian, and he said loudly to the soldiers: "We will go to Shanshan the day after tomorrow. I came to Beida camp today mainly because I hope that everyone will stay vigilant and be ready for war at all times; at the same time, I hope that everyone will be safe when something happens. Fight bravely and be invincible in the war, and save a rich family fortune for yourself and your descendants."
Cheers suddenly erupted around the school grounds.

[Note: Modao and Hengdao are not sharp blades refined in the Tang Dynasty. They were both derived from the Han sword, the Zhanma Dao, and the Zhanma Sword, and were officially finalized in the Northern and Southern Dynasties. Mo Dao was called Pai Ren before the Tang Dynasty. In order to make it easier for everyone to read, it was named after Mo Dao. As for the Modao Formation, Yang Su actually played it superbly and defeated countless powerful enemies. However, since Modao has such a long history, it is very likely that the Modao Formation appeared on the battlefield before Yang Su. 】
[The weapons of ancient generals often weighed hundreds of kilograms. In fact, there is nothing to doubt about this; just because if the hundred kilograms were Han kilograms, it would be about fifty kilograms today. And with the strength of a powerful general that is rare to see in a century, it is not difficult to wield a weapon weighing about fifty kilograms. Let’s not talk about the mighty generals who are famous in history, but Confucius, a “literary man”, could easily lift the cauldron with one hand. He was no less competitive than the overlord Xiang Yu; and Yang Jian’s father Yang Zhong was even more powerful. He can tear a big tiger alive with his bare hands, which is even more powerful than Wu Song in the movie... As for Li Yuanba and Yuwen Chengdu, who have terrifyingly heavy weapons, they are all characters in novels and should not be taken seriously.
Except for the mighty generals, the selection criteria for Wei soldiers were very cruel and strict; in my opinion, the soldiers who could meet the standards were not human beings, but Wei Guo selected 50,000 soldiers. The standards are as follows:
Firstly, the soldiers are required to be able to fire a twelve-stone bow; secondly, they are required to march 100 to 200 miles in half a day while carrying about 200 kilograms of items on their backs. The items carried by the soldiers include heavy armor, helmets, shields, boots, battle robes, etc. Changge, sword, twelve-stone bow, 50 arrows, and 3 days of food and grass. It is worth mentioning that the weapons and equipment of Wei soldiers were made of iron, and someone has long restored the heavy iron armor of that period. A set of armor alone seems to have weighed more than a hundred kilograms today, so it is not said that it is about two hundred kilograms. exaggerate. 】. Update without error@
