Chapter 51
: Soldiers on the battlefield
Early the next morning, Chen Kefu, who had been insomnia all night, appeared at the university ground with a pair of panda eyes. He tossed and turned all night last night, but he didn't think about how to solve this problem.
Since he came to the Sui Dynasty, he really had no time to think about marrying his wife. Although he took a Japanese maid on the way, he just used to be a nanny. It was not that he didn't want to, but that he had no time to think about it. Since he came here, he was just war and training, or he was busy getting close to the generals and soldiers of the Pojun Camp and establishing relationships, in order to integrate himself into the army as soon as possible and take the entire Pojun Camp into his hands as soon as possible.
After so long in Liaodong, he has seen many Goguryeo women, Khitan women, Mushi women, Turkic women, Xi women, and Japanese women in Xincheng. Although many of the foreign women are pretty and full of exotic style, for Chen Kefu, it is enough to see such a woman. He is not willing to marry someone and let him go home. It is probably difficult for such a woman to marry her home. He was originally a thousand years later and had a deep "generation gap" with the women of this era. If he married another foreign woman, he would really lose even the last little common language.
Now that this suddenly jumped out of the third lady of the Li family, Chen Kefu was confused. Logically speaking, being Li Yuan’s son-in-law was a good way out. At the beginning, he thought that he could not hold Li Yuan’s thick thighs. Just like when a sister of Li fell off today, he suddenly became the future husband of the third lady of the Li family. If this history still developed as he knew, then Li Yuan would be the lord of the Central Plains, and then he would naturally become the son-in-law.
However, after staying in Liaodong for so long, Chen Kefu's heart gradually changed. He knew that it was unrealistic to simply wait for Li Yuan to become the emperor and enjoy his happiness. Even if it was Li Yuan's son, when he was resurgent, most of his family members were also arrested and chopped down by Sui Dynasty officials. Things in the future are full of variables, and no one knows what will happen before that. What Chen Kefu believes most now is himself. Only by holding the troops in his hands can his own destiny be decided by himself.
Last night, he had met two guys Li Shimin and Li Xuanba. The two guys are now completely rookies, and they feel fresh everywhere in the military camp. After seeing these two hot-blooded young men suddenly became their brother-in-law, Chen Kefu also learned about the situation of the third lady. The third lady with the name of Xiuning is indeed the princess Pingyang who led the army in history. Although this princess is quite outstanding in history and is as good as a woman, she has not left her name. She is just passed down to later generations with the title of Princess Pingyang.
Li Shimin and Li Xuanba were very appreciative of their third sister. From their mouths, their third sister was simply the incarnation of beauty and kindness, and they were probably the same as the reincarnation of Guanyin. Although Chen Kefu didn't believe that there was such an outstanding woman, I think this third lady should be a kind and kind girl. The most important thing is that the third lady not only can go out of the hall and enter the kitchen, but also ride a war horse, hold weapons, make a girl and cut clothes. Moreover, the third lady has a prominent life experience and is also the legitimate lady of the Li family. It can be said that marrying a wife is like this.
However, although Chen Kefu really admired Princess Pingyang, that was because he admired the woman who led the Detachment of Women in later generations very much, but it did not mean that he, a modern person, could accept such a fact that he had never seen a single face but had already been engaged. This made him feel unreliable than the blind dates and marriages in later generations.
But he just got engaged yesterday and broke off the engagement today. This would definitely not work. If he did that, then it would be a great insult to the Li family. Not to mention that Li Yuan would be very likely to be an emperor in the future, but not to be an emperor. With the current power of the Li family, he, as a rootless general, could not withstand the revenge of the Li family. Now, he offended two of the four powerful ministers in the court. If even the Li family, the main clan of the Sui Dynasty, offended him, then he probably would have to be destroyed before the Sui Dynasty was destroyed.
In desperation, Chen Kefu had to make a decision, and he would take one step at a time. Maybe he and the third lady would really get along at first sight. In the end, the depressed Chen Kefu had to extricate his anger on the two cheap brother-in-laws. With a wave of his hand, the two brother-in-law were all transferred to the heavy cavalry unit and asked them to receive the most difficult training. After driving away the two brother-in-law, he also suffered from insomnia.
When Chen Kefu arrived at the schoolyard, the entire schoolyard could be described as crowded. Except for a few troops guarding the Liaodong City, all the troops under the Liaodong City gathered at the schoolyard today. At this time, the number of auxiliary soldiers and civilians and servants combined was 400,000 to 500,000. Not far from the open Liao River, they formed one huge square after another.
It is said that people are over 10,000, and these 400,000 or 500,000 people gather together. Chen Kefu Zhen feels like he is in the sea of people.
As the army that made great contributions this time, Pojun Camp was arranged not far from the imperial platform built high in front of him. In order to show the military power of Pojun Camp, Chen Kefu ordered all the soldiers of Pojun Camp today to wear the best armor and ride the best war horses, stick to the most elite weapons, and the brand new Pojun flag fluttered, and the five thousand heavy cavalry armor were equipped with armor and cavalry. All the Pojun soldiers were wearing black bright light armor. In front of the 10,000-person array of Pojun Camp, they could only see a stern black, black war horses, black bright light armor, and black cloak. And in this boundless black, there were a few embellishments, which were the blood-red helmet tassels on the black helmets on the heads of each elite knight, and the white arrow feathers in the two quiver equipped by each knight.
These strands of red and white spots further highlight the black area in front of you. The endless square formation of soldiers in the school are full of admiration and envy for this elite army. Today, the Strike Po military camp is the well-deserved protagonist.
While enjoying the envious gaze from all sides, all the soldiers of the Poujun camp looked at the figure in front of their square formation with admiration. It was the only white in the entire black square formation, the white one was so dazzling, the snow-white green war horse, and even the vest was specially changed to a white vest, a white cloak, a white bright silver kirin bright light armor, the only red one was the helmet tassel on the head, and even the weapon in his hand was replaced with an exquisite bright silver spear, with its tough and exquisite face and slender Kong Wu's figure. The soldiers who saw it couldn't help but praise it in their hearts. They were such a good man.
Hundreds of thousands of people were placed in this schoolyard, but there was no noise. All the troops maintained a good formation under the command of their respective generals, and even the civilians had the same foot strength. Chen Kefu rode on the horse, straightened his chest and looked forward, staring at the front, waiting for His Majesty the Emperor to arrive. But he sighed infinitely in his heart that this was the army of the Great Sui Dynasty, a real army of war. They defeated Northern Qi, unified the north, and defeated Southern Chen, unified the world, and ended the dispute between the north and the south.
This army not only fought south and north, unified the Central Plains, but also divided a huge Turkic dynasty into two east and west with the Turks. The subsequent wars further scattered the grassland regime that threatened the Central Plains at any time. After defeating the Turks, this army also destroyed the Tuyuhun Kingdom established by the Xianbei people for one dynasty, established the four counties of Qiemo, Qinghai, Heyuan, and Shanshan on its former land, and established Yiwu County in Hawu. This was the first time that the Central Plains dynasty established administrative divisions in the Western Regions since the Qin and Han Dynasties.
This Sui army, which had fought all the people, invaded Linyi in the south, destroyed its country, seized its treasures, defeated Ryukyu in the east, burned its palaces, seized its population, and returned with great victory. Now, this invincible army has come to Goguryeo again.
Unfortunately, Goguryeo, which no one looked down upon, failed to fight. His Majesty, both emperors conquered Goguryeo, but now they have conquered Goguryeo three times, and many of them have died, but they have not even been able to take down a Liaodong city.
You can imagine how great an insult this was for the Emperor of the Sui Dynasty and these army of war. The cunning of the Goguryeo and their unyielding strategy successfully dragged this invincible lion into this war quagmire. The war has long lost its original essence.
At the beginning of the war, the ministers of the Sui Dynasty thought that Goguryeo was also an agricultural regime, and could assimilate them and transform them into the land of the Sui Dynasty. Instead, like the grassland people, they could only plunder their cattle and sheep and destroy their strength in the war against the grassland people. However, Goguryeo was different. Conquering Goguryeo could make the territory of the Sui Dynasty wider.
But now that the war has become a war of shame and a war for the sake of face and face. All the soldiers began to get tired of this war, and the Great Sui Dynasty also began to be dragged to a dangerous place by this war.
Now, the Sui Dynasty finally saw a glimmer of light and finally saw the possibility of the end of this battle. They finally got out of this quagmire. For the first time, they annihilated 80,000 cavalry from Goguryeo, and the Goguryeo soldiers who were annihilated and captured in the four cities of Xincheng before. In this battle, the Sui army solved the 110,000 troops of Goguryeo, and there were 100,000 cavalry from Goguryeo.
Goguryeo and the Sui army fought so many times. Although they finally won each time, their own injuries were very large. This country, with a population of only one-eleventh of the Sui Dynasty, has now reached a verge of collapse. All their troops can only mobilize 300,000 people, and even if the whole people are soldiers, they can only mobilize about 500,000 people. The troops lost in recent years have reached about 200,000.
