Zhang Siwei is a scholar. Of course, all the books he reads are read into the dog's belly. He has no idea how terrifying the words "military talent" are.
People with military talents can do whatever they want on the battlefield. They can win no matter how hard they fight, and they can never lose no matter how hard they fight. No matter how much obstruction there is behind them, they can win.
When Wang Chonggu was studying, he didn't believe it when he read that Li Shimin destroyed Song Jingang. Even if Li Shimin was not a human being, weren't Li Shimin's generals also human beings? How could it be possible to achieve such a record?
It wasn't until Qi Jiguang was born that Wang Chonggu completely understood that military talent really didn't make any sense.
In April of the 40th year of Jiajing's reign, more than 20,000 Japanese pirates, red-haired bandits, black bandits, and desperadoes used fifty warships to invade more than ten places in Ninghai, Zhejiang, including Jiantiao, Linhai Taozhu, Taipingxinhe, and Chumen. Warnings are heard frequently, and the smoke spreads thousands of miles.
On April 19, a total of 16 Japanese ships and about 1,000 Japanese pirates landed from Xifeng, Fenghua, and entered Ninghai that night, ravaging and looting.
After receiving the report, Qi Jiguang deployed the defense of Taizhou. In the early morning of the 22nd, he led the main force of 2,000 people to Ninghai. They marched 200 miles all day and night. On the 24th, when they reached the enemy's rear, Chen Dacheng and Yang Wen led their troops into the Mandarin Duck formation, which took only half an hour. The enemy army was defeated and the remaining bandits fled. In this battle, the casualty ratio was 600 to 0, with no casualties among the Qi army.
On April 22, the Japanese pirates landed at Zhouyang Port. On the 24th, they robbed various places outside Xinhesuo City and besieged Xinhe.
Qi Jiguang's wife, Wang, was living in Xinhe. She stepped forward and ordered the armory to be opened. She mobilized the people to put on military uniforms, holding weapons in hand, mixed with soldiers, and went to the city to guard. Qi Jiguang's wife personally went to the city gate to guard, even though the main force was clearly not there. Xinhe, but the Japanese pirates thought that the main force was in the city and did not dare to attack.
On the night of the 26th, Qi Jiguang led his troops back to Taizhou from Ninghai County. 2,000 Southern soldiers crossed Tongyan Ridge on an empty stomach overnight and galloped 70 miles. They arrived at Fucheng before noon on the 27th. On the day of departure on the 22nd, The soldiers led by Qi Jiguang only had three days' rations. When they returned to Taizhou, they were already fasting.
Chen Dacheng believed that the soldiers galloped 70 miles, over mountains and ridges, and when they returned to Taizhou, they were already empty and unfit to continue fighting. Running back and forth, the soldiers were tired, even if they had to eat a meal first.
But at this time, the Japanese pirates had already broken into the foot of Jingjiang Mountain and sneaked into Huajie, only 5 miles away from the city. Qi Jiguang then ordered: The thieves must be killed urgently, and then they can eat.
The Battle of Flower Street begins.
Chen Dacheng, Ding Bangyan and others led their troops to pursue and annihilate the Japanese pirates. Among them, 2 pirate chiefs were captured alive, 308 were beheaded, and countless people fell into the water and died. This battle also rescued more than 5,000 civilians who were taken captive. Among the Southern soldiers, only three people including the sentry commander Chen Wenqing were killed.
You must know that the Japanese pirates first burn the ships when they land. This is called burning the boats and landing, which means they will fight to the death. The Japanese pirates are trapped animals at the end of their rope. This is the most common method used by the Japanese pirates to improve their morale. There is no way out.
This method has been tried and tested, but the Japanese pirates encountered Qi Jiguang.
On April 22nd, he moved to Ninghai, and on the 26th he returned to Taizhou. With no military supplies, he went hungry and killed the enemy in Huajie. This has proved the unreasonableness of military talent.
But Wang Chonggu knew that there were even more unreasonable battles that took place nine times in total, nine times a month.
On April 25, a group of more than 2,000 Japanese pirates boarded 18 sailboats and crossed the river in Ninghai County. On the 28th, they burned the boats and landed in Linhai. On the first day of May, they entered Datian Town, east of Taizhou Fucheng. They fought continuously. Qi Jiguang confronted the Japanese pirates for two days in heavy rain, and the Japanese invaded Xianju.
On May 3, Qi Jiguang set up an ambush in Shangfengling and wiped out the Japanese pirates. Only three people, including Chen Si, were killed in the battle.
From April 22nd to May 22nd in the 40th year of Jiajing, Qi Jiguang visited Ninghai, Xinhe, Huajie, Shangfengling, Chumen, Aiwanwan, Tengling, etc. In the nine land and water battles between Changsha (Wenling Changsha) and Yangqi, more than 5,000 enemies were killed and more than 10,000 civilians were rescued. However, Qi Jiguang led the Southern Army and only killed less than 20 people.
The people of Taizhou rely on the Great Wall, and Eastern Zhejiang provides its protection.
This is the miracle of war created by Qi Jiguang in the 40th year of Jiajing. This is also a silhouette of Qi Jiguang's sturdy achievements.
Encountering the emergence of such a fierce general, coupled with the scheming Zhang Juzheng, Wang Chonggu was beaten hard, and he could see clearly, after all, who is the person who can fight? It is better to make a fortune in peace of mind.
But Zhang Siwei is still living in his own world. He feels that he can use those conspiracies to fight Zhang Juzheng, Qi Jiguang and others.
"Nephew, you still don't understand. The great world is not supported by small people like us, but by gentlemen like Zhang Juzheng and Qi Jiguang. They are the pillars of the country, and we are in this land that they have supported. In the world, find some food to eat."
"Can you dig into the pillar of the country with your plot and tricks?" Wang Chonggu tried to persuade Zhang Siwei for the last time. If he couldn't persuade him, he would not persuade him again.
"Okay." Zhang Siwei held the official memorial in his hand, finally exhaled and agreed.
Wang Chonggu took back the memorial and left Zhang Siwei's home.
When Wang Qian saw his father coming back, he greeted him and said, "Father, how was your conversation with Zhang Siwei?"
"Stubborn." Wang Chonggu said with great dissatisfaction: "I couldn't listen to anything I said, so I thought I was right. He thought he could bring down Zhang Juzheng and Qi Jiguang by finding someone to make up those dirty stories. ?”
"When Qi Jiguang was in Taizhou, he had a big quarrel with his wife because he had no money for medical treatment because of his injuries. Qi Shuai made various arrangements in order to send carbon jingbing jing to the Quanchu Guild Hall. Qi Jiguang's wife, Wang, saw that Qi Jiguang had no money for medical treatment, so she talked to Qi Jiguang It’s so noisy that the whole of Taizhou knows about it!”
Wang Qian was horrified and said: "Qi Shuai, such a heroic figure, is also trapped by money?"
"What do you think? Zhang Siwei's arrangement of those Persian beauties and other rotten things is unsightly. In the past two years, Qi Shuai did not have to send money to the Quanchu Guild Hall. The emperor continued to reward him, so Qi Shuai's family did not have to worry about these things. We had a quarrel." Wang Chonggu really didn't want to admit it, but Qi Jiguang was really a hero and really poor.
In the tenth year of Wanli, Zhang Dingsi impeached Qi Jiguang as a member of Zhang Juzheng's party, and Qi Jiguang was appointed as the chief military officer of Guangdong. In the thirteenth year of Wanli, Zhang Xigao impeached Qi Jiguang again, and Qi Jiguang was dismissed. In the same year, the imperial censor Fu Guangzhai was impeached again, and Qi Jiguang's salary was taken away. Qi Jiguang, a hero of his generation, died of illness at home because he had no money for medical treatment.
Qi Jiguang was really poor.
When Wang Qian heard that Zhang Siwei was going to attack Qi Jiguang's food and grass, everyone was stunned. He said dullly: "That is His Majesty's martial arts teacher. Zhang Siwei is attacking Qi Shuai. Doesn't Zhang Siwei know that he is afraid at all?"
"Your Majesty is really going to kill his nine tribes! Father, let's take action before Zhang Siwei takes action!"
Wang Qian has never considered himself a gentleman. He is actively preparing for the exam. His life has just begun, and he is about to be implicated by Zhang Siwei and go to hell. Who can Wang Qian turn to for reasoning?
The most important thing is that Ma Fang, Ma Gui and other generals of the Jin Party are also in the army.
Wang Qian sometimes didn't know what to say. People like Ma Fang, Ma Gui, and Li Rusong were all very convinced of Qi Jiguang, and they got along extremely well with Qi Jiguang.
"He doesn't dare." Wang Chonggu shook his head and said: "Since we no longer clamor for the promotion of cabinet ministers, there is no need to attack Shuai Qi. We can still live in peace for a while. When the army returns home in triumph, Zhang Siwei's house will be set on fire. Even if he doesn't die, let him move here and live under your nose to prevent trouble."
Wang Qian nodded and said, "Okay, I'll make arrangements, and I happened to bribe the woodcarver at Zhang Siwei's house."
The firewood bearers are the laborers who deliver firewood to Zhang Siwei's home every day. These laborers are all sent from the coal market. They are very mobile. They are ordinary people who have lost their land. If you give them one hundred taels, then It’s money that they can’t spend in a lifetime, enough for them to fight for their lives.
It was night, the Wenchang Pavilion of the Quanchu Guild Hall was brightly lit, and Zhang Juzheng was writing a letter to Qi Jiguang. Since Qi Jiguang was knighted, Zhang Juzheng rarely corresponded with Qi Jiguang, and rarely saw each other on weekdays.
But this does not mean that the boat of friendship has capsized. On the contrary, everyone is doing what they can in different fields to inspire the Ming Dynasty.
"Do you understand clearly?" Zhang Juzheng stopped writing and looked at You Qi and asked.
"I asked clearly, it's Liu Tai." You Qi said a name carefully. Liu Tai was a Jinshi in the fifth year of Longqing's reign. He had the status of the Quanchu Guild Hall and was a student of Zhang Juzheng.
Zhang Juzheng has always felt a little strange. Why is Zhang Siwei making such a big noise at this time? Now he wants to let Zhang Siwei join the cabinet. After the war in the Northeast is over and Qi Jiguang returns home, the emperor will have his hands free. The little emperor's temper will not affect Zhang Siwei. To punish the nine tribes, Zhang Juzheng and the little emperor’s surname is Zhu!
The problem was the Northeast War. Zhang Juzheng began to pay attention to what Zhang Siwei was going to do. At the same time, he planned to write to Qi Jiguang and Li Chengliang to urge them to be extremely careful.
There were only so many ministers serving in the Northeast. Zhang Juzheng checked them all. Finally, Liu Tai, who had just assumed the post of Inspector of Liaodong, came into Zhang Juzheng's sight. This was his disciple.
"Your Majesty has always said that my teachings are good and the principles are clear. Look at the people you have taught. You Qi, your husband's level of teaching his disciples is really not very good." Zhang Juzheng heard Liu Tai's words Name, sighing heavily.
You Qi hurriedly said: "Sir, what you are saying is correct! Liu Tai is from Jiangxi, and he and Fu Yingzhen are from the same town. They really have their own interests. Sir, I don't know the details. It is really Liu Tai who deliberately concealed it."
"Isn't Liu Tai originally from Huguang and born in Sichuan? How come he is from Jiangxi and lives in the same town as Fu Yingzhen?" Zhang Juzheng asked with a frown.
You Qi bowed his head and said: "My ancestral home is Huguang, I was born in Sichuan. I came to Jiangxi when I was three years old. I and Fu Yingzhen are the same teacher, the same hometown, and the same ranking. After Fu Yingzhen was convicted and imprisoned, Zhang Siwei used every opportunity to lobby Liu Tai."
After Zhang Juzheng heard this, he finished writing the letter in his hand and said, "It's urgent to send the letter to Liaodong within 800 miles."
On the third day, Qi Jiguang, who was in Guangning, received letters from the capital. There were three letters in total. The first one was a letter from the Ming Emperor. It was not an imperial edict, just a letter.
In the letter, the little emperor rambled on about his recent schoolwork. He is now the best in the world in the youth group. He can shoot a sixty-pound hard bow and hit six out of ten arrows. He has also learned to ride a horse. When Qi Jiguang returns home in triumph, he will Qi Jiguang practiced some exercises.
Regarding the war, the emperor's intention was very clear and he did not seek victory.
It doesn't matter if we can't win. It's time to train troops. Maintaining our vitality is the fundamental thing.
Now that the imperial court has money, if it cannot defeat 10,000 people, it will train 100,000. If it loses this time, it will grant the title of king and tribute to the barbarian Chahan Khan. Anyway, there is already an Anda Khan in the northwest, and there are too many lice. It's not itchy, it was the late emperor and the Jin party who set the precedent. It was not easy for orphans and widowers to sit in the country. It didn't matter if they gave Chahan Khan the title of king and tribute.
As long as the final result between the Ming Dynasty and the Tuman tribe is that the Ming Dynasty wins, that's fine.
Qi Jiguang showed a smile. How big is Tuman's face, and he still needs 100,000 people? It is already very difficult for the imperial court to raise ten thousand elite soldiers. One hundred thousand elite soldiers would not be enough even if the palace was sold.
The second letter was written to him by Zhang Juzheng. Qi Jiguang was also a little strange. They had lost contact since he was knighted in the first year of Wanli. They had never exchanged letters. Zhang Juzheng wanted to avoid suspicion, but the content of the letter was extremely surprising. Zhang Juzheng asked He was wary of villains, especially when it came to food, grass and armaments. There was a lot of gunpowder in the army, so be careful of villains.
Qi Jiguang was already extremely wary of his inner ghosts. When he was fighting in the southeast, he suffered a lot of losses like this. If he hadn't been so good at fighting, the grass on the grave might have been three feet high. With Zhang Juzheng's reminder, Qi Jiguang would be even more careful. .
The third letter was from his wife. In the letter, she first scolded Qi Jiguang's concubines, the Chen family, the Shen family, and the Yang family, saying that they wasted a lot of money in the palace and the emperor's rewards were many, but they were also We can't waste it like this. The three houses are still fighting among themselves, making the house full of chaos and no peace.
Qi Jiguang had three concubines. There are three ways to be unfilial, and the biggest one is to have no heirs. Qi Jiguang's wife Wang's children died young one after another and she was no longer able to have children. Qi Jiguang even took in three concubines for the sake of his children. He could take concubines when he was forty and had no children. This is The express provisions of the Ming Dynasty Law.
But Qi Jiguang took these three concubines without telling the Wang family. No one in the Ming Dynasty knew about Qi Jiguang's concubine fear. When the family found out, it caused quite a disturbance.
Mrs. Wang also asked Qi Jiguang not to charge into battle anymore. At this age, he was no longer young. He was no longer the young Qi Jiguang who killed seventeen thieves. He must cherish himself. The Yang family in the mansion gave Qi Jiguang a son, six pounds. Six taels, let Qi Jiguang come up with a name.
In Wang's letters, apart from longing, there is also deep resentment. She is resentful that Qi Jiguang went out to fight. She is resentful that Yang gave birth to a boy for Qi Jiguang. The biggest resentment is that she herself cannot give Qi Jiguang an heir.
Mrs. Wang gave birth to a child for Qi Jiguang, but none of her children were born in succumbing to the chaos of war. In order to continue the heir, Mrs. Wang tried her best and went to Jiuli Lake in Xinghua to pray to the Nine Carp Immortal to give birth to another child. Son, but the imperial doctor from the imperial hospital also diagnosed Wang as sterile.
Qi Jiguang wrote three replies and asked his soldiers to send them to the post station and quickly send them back to the capital.
Then he led his own soldiers to patrol the food and baggage. His food and grass were not something that anyone could just order, and they were extremely well guarded. He checked them over and was sure that there was no fire. He stood in the camp and looked at Shanhaiguan. direction.
So what if his food was burned?
His Majesty has hoarded 200,000 shi in Shilijiabao, 400,000 shi in Shanhaiguan, 800,000 shi in Jizhou, and 4 million shi in Tongzhou Wubaicu. Once there is a problem with the supply of food and fodder to the front, The entire line immediately began to mobilize and transport, fully ensuring logistics.
This is not only the holy family of His Majesty the Emperor, but also Wang Guangguang's request to suspend the payment of lumi to officials in the capital and give priority to frontline military use.
This is an extremely important part of Zhenwu, with priority given to military use.
Qi Jiguang has never fought such a wealthy battle in his life.
When fighting in Taizhou, Ninghai, Huajie and other places, it was common to go through mountains and ridges while still hungry. Now that it was better, Qi Jiguang even had the illusion that there was a dog tied up in the commander's tent. Can't lose.
It's nice to have money.
Qi Jiguang looked at the sky. He was now looking forward to snowing soon. When it started snowing, it would be time to advance troops.
In early October, Li Chengliang set up the general's cannon in front of the Dragon King Temple. If it snowed in December like last year, Li Chengliang would really bombard the Dragon King Temple.
Zhang Xueyan received Zhang Juzheng's letter and immediately found Li Chengliang.
Li Chengliang also had a letter similar to Zhang Xueyan's.
"Liu Tai, a forced-raised man, actually wants my food and grass! Come here!" Li Chengliang read the letter, slapped the table and stood up, saying angrily: "Catch Liu Tai!"
As the governor, Zhang Xueyan should have advised the commander not to be angry, but he thought about it and tried to persuade him. Even if he lost the battle, he, Zhang Xueyan, would not get any good results.
The soldiers used the fastest speed to catch Liu Tai in the Dusi Yamen. Li Chengliang, who was already a tough guy, was so angry that he walked up to Liu Tai step by step and grabbed Liu Tai's whole body like a chicken. He got up and lifted Liu Tai up with both hands.
Zhang Xueyan looked at this weird gesture and wondered how stupid Liu Tai must be to do such a thing.
What is Li Chengliang? It's the military leader.
Li Chengliang was a figure who climbed out of the pit. Winning battles was his capital for promotion, and Liaodong had a very typical trend of becoming a vassal town. The entire Liaodong war relied on Li Chengliang's domestic servants, or the three thousand guest soldiers raised by Li Chengliang. Combat.
It is not unfair at all to say that Li Chengliang is a military leader, but this military leader is now willing to listen to the court.
Li Chengliang tilted his head and looked at Liu Tai seriously, staring with a ferocious look on his face, twitching the corners of his mouth and said, "I heard that you want to burn our food and grass?"
"No, general, don't listen to anyone's instigation!" Liu Tai lifted his feet off the ground and kept swinging, but Li Chengliang's hands were like pliers.
"If you hadn't been Mr. Zhang's disciple, you would be dead now! You know, there are many ferocious beasts in Liaodong, and it is so appropriate to be buried in the tiger's mouth!" Li Chengliang threw Liu Tai to the ground and said coldly: "Detain him Get up, pull down and ask what happens."
"I am an official of the imperial court and the patrol commissioner of Liaodong. Li Chengliang, don't be too arrogant! I will definitely report to the imperial court and punish you for treason!" Liu Tai felt pain in his armpits and said angrily.
Li Chengliang looked at Liu Tai and sneered and said, "Humph, do you know what it means to give military generals some power?"
"When it comes to war, I have the final say! Even if the King of Heaven comes, it won't matter, unless there is an imperial edict from His Majesty! If I suspect that you are a piece of shit, and that you are a thief, I will put you in prison! You'd better be clean up there. Yes! It can stand up to cross-examination!"
"Try the torture of Liaodong, sit on the ice, let me see if you can do it!"
Sitting on an ice cube is a kind of torture. It means pressing a naked person on a piece of ice. It is bone-chilling and painful. No one is willing to try this kind of torture. Zhang Juzheng said that Liu Tai had a problem, and Liu Tai himself said that he had no problem. One person lied, and Li Chengliang believed that the person who lied was not Zhang Juzheng.
Zhang Xueyan said: "Inquire with everyone who has had contact with Liu Tai and confirm each other's opinions. Then we will naturally know the result."
It only took half a day for Liu Tai and the servants Liu Tai contacted to recruit directly. Zhang Xueyan wrote a memorial to the capital and asked for orders to recall Liu Tai to the capital for questioning.
On the second day after Liu Tai was escorted to Beijing, Lord Long probably saw that the black muzzle was not empty. Light snow started to fall in the sky, and then heavy snow started to fly all over the sky.
It was snowing, and it was time to advance. Li Chengliang immediately ordered all the guest soldiers and went straight to Tieling. Qi Jiguang led 10,000 elite troops to attack Daningwei from Guangning. Chen Dacheng would exit from the four passes of Xifengkou. , surrounded the Tuman Chahan Khan on three sides and twenty-one lines.
From Xifengkou through Fuminyi, Kuanhecheng, Baishanyi, Huizhoucheng, Jizhuangyi, and Fufuyi, it can reach Daningwei for a total of 480 miles.
From Guangningwei to Daningwei, it covers a total of 485 miles and ten post roads. These post roads were built in the 27th year of Hongwu's reign.
During the Yongle period, King Ning moved inland, and the Great Ning Guard began to deteriorate. In the end, the Northern Parallel Capital Division existed in name only. Since the Yongle year, people in all dynasties have been admonishing to restore the Great Ning Guard. Until the Chongzhen Period, Xu Guangqi was still talking about restoring the Great Ning Guard. guard.
Among them, especially in the early years of Wanli, Liu Yingjie, Tan Lun, Zhang Huang, Chen Quanzhi, Wu Pu, Zhou Hongzu and others discussed the restoration of Daning Hetao, and the wind was the strongest.
Therefore, Tan Lun has always said that even if he is not the governor of military affairs, it would be great to just take a look. After taking a look, Tan Lun will continue to review the Daning Guard, restore those post roads, and actually control the Daning Guard. The imperial court has become too passive.
This is related to the forces of the Northern Barbarians at this time. To the northwest is the Khan Ada Khan of the Tumut tribe, which is the right-wing tribes, and to the northeast is Chahan Khan of the Tuman tribe, which is the left-wing tribes.
In the thirty-sixth year of the Jiajing reign, the left and right wings of the Northern Barbarians officially broke apart. Kuden Khan on the left wing was no match for Anda Khan and moved eastward to the Tianshou Mountains (Daxingan Mountains). After the death of Kuden Khan, the throne was passed to Tuman Khan. Conquered Haixi Jurchen, Jianzhou Jurchen and other tribes.
Tuman Khan calls himself Chahan Khan. Chahan means white and sun. It means the purest golden bloodline in the eternal world, the sun of the east, and a similar extended meaning.
Of course, the Ming Dynasty called Tuman Khan Tuman, or Tumen.
In October of the third year of Wanli, Tuman Khan had 60,000 cavalry in his hands.
Qi Jiguang set out from Guangning with only 10,000 elite troops as the main attack direction, Chen Dacheng sent only 20,000 troops from Xifengkou as support, and Li Chengliang went to Tieling in order to cut off the Haixi Jurchen and Jianzhou Jurchen from supporting the Daning Guard.
There were only 10,000 elite troops in the main attack, led by Qi Jiguang. It was snowing heavily. After a little reorganization, Qi Jiguang began to advance. The forward Li Rusong led 2,000 men to set off first. Qi Jiguang was the central army of the headquarters, and the deputy commander-in-chief Ma Fang and the governor-general military affairs officer Liang Menglong were the rear. , responsible for the food and supplies.
The army began to march towards Daningwei in the heavy snow.
The northwest wind is roaring, and the sky and the earth seem to be hanging upside down. The snow is so heavy that it is almost impossible to distinguish the east from the northwest, and so heavy that it is almost impossible to distinguish the up and down. The footprints left by people who have just walked through disappear after a gust of wind. Without a trace, this is the white-haired wind on the grassland. In the blizzard weather, there is no animal activity, except for the Ming army advancing.
Liang Menglong checked the food and grass, looked at the heavy snowfall, sighed, and asked Ma Fang beside him doubtfully: "With such heavy snow, is it unwise for us to send troops at this time?"
Ma Fang shook his head and said, "Do you believe it or not, Qi Shuai can walk to Daning Guard with his eyes closed?"
"Qi Shuai is also a human being." Liang Menglong said angrily. Qi Jiguang is also a human being. In this kind of weather, even bear bears are hiding in caves and refuse to move. Ma Fang's words are simply unreasonable.
Ma Fang laughed twice and said: "Frostbite is an important factor in non-combat attrition in heavy snowfall."
"Before this departure, the Ministry of Household Affairs allocated 30,000 pieces of cotton-padded clothes, and the Beijing camp had three pieces of cotton-padded clothes. Each cotton-padded coat cost one tael and five taels, which is 45,000 taels. It also gave 20,000 pairs of deerskin boots. Just these shoes under our feet, wear one pair and prepare a pair, one pair costs six taels of silver, totaling 120,000 taels of silver; hood, thirty thousand, one is two taels of silver, thirty thousand is sixty thousand taels."
The hood is a kind of windproof hat. It is divided into two parts, the left and right parts. The top of the hat covers the forehead. The side pockets can be tied on the cheeks. When the whole person is pulled out, only a pair of eyes are left.
Liang Menglong stamped his feet vigorously. This sergeant was no longer a sergeant, he was clearly just a walking pile of silver ingots!
Ma Fang put his two hands into each other's sleeves and said as he walked forward; "Heavy snow will hinder the movement of soldiers, and wheeled vehicles may encounter slippage and pits. In heavy snow, the road is impassable , places that were previously directly accessible may have to be detoured for tens or hundreds of miles. Marching in the white-haired wind, the visibility is very low, it is impossible to identify the road and determine the direction, and it is even impossible to march."
"But there's a limit, and that's one foot deep."
"This snow looks heavy to you, but in fact, the heavy snow in October is only one foot deep, no matter how heavy it is, and it does not affect driving. You see, after a few hours, this heavy snow will stop falling."
"Qi Shuai is not so much a gifted person as he is observant and careful in everything."
Sure enough, when we were setting up camp, the snow in the sky gradually became lighter. Liang Menglong specially took a construction ruler and inserted it into the snow. The snow was less than one foot thick, only three centimeters difference.
"Amazing!" Liang Menglong held the ruler and said in great surprise.
Ma Fang still held his hands. He was old and couldn't fight anymore. Looking at Liang Menglong's surprised expression, he said: "Do you know how long Qi Shuai has been preparing to go out to fight? It has been eight years since the second year of Longqing. .”
"He's been waiting for this opportunity."
When the author wrote this, he remembered Qi Shuai's self-deprecating words before: treat them like warts, and calmly spread them. Qi Jiguang only needs a chance, a chance to fight. Please give me a monthly ticket, wow! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
