Chapter 597
When Shen Hao came to the Kundark Fire Pass again, he had a new feeling.
If the impression that Kunhuoguan gave him was "stern" when he came to meet Zuo Yuliang last time, then this time it was "boiling".
Shen Hao has done his homework and learned a lot of historical materials about the Kundao Pass. Recently, the General Administration Office of the Military Affairs and Daoxing in the south was set up on the beach stone, and the location was not too far forward or backward. It was connected to the front line and the rear, which was relatively reasonable.
However, since Zuo Yuliang took charge of the southern border army and served as the general manager of Daoxing, he moved the general manager of Daoxing from the Tanshi to the Kundao Pass. Even the specific office space was moved to the inside of the wall of the Kundao Pass. It was a real "front line commander".
It is said that almost all the military supervisors were on Zuo Yuliang's letter at that time, saying that he was exposing the center of the border army to the barbarians, and that he was irresponsible to the dynasty, and his words were as fierce as the previous civil servant group wanted to bite Xuan Qingwei.
Finally, Yang Yansi, the Minister of War, stood up and disagreed with the emperor's support, and used "non-war" excuses.
Not to mention that the military supervisors did not understand, many generals in the army at that time did not understand Zuo Yuliang's approach, because this did expose the command center and there was a high risk.
But now Shen Hao stayed with Tanshi for a while, and he looked at Zuo Yuliang's original actions from the perspective of a military layman, but he had some personal understanding of it.
In Shen Hao's opinion, Zuo Yuliang moved the Daoxing General Office to Kunhuoguan with such great pressure, but he was probably trying to use his power to suppress the most important link, and he felt that he was unable to change his decay status. This can be seen from the fact that Kunhuoguan had almost replaced all the relevant officials after Zuo Yuliang moved the yamen.
Is it considered as having foresight and self-knowledge? Shen Hao thinks it is.
If Zuo Yuliang stayed honestly at the beach stone, he would probably not be able to completely suppress the kundalini as he is now, which would lead to the lack of necessary elite troops after the troops are now on. If the emperor blames Zuo Yuliang for being blamed, wouldn’t it be a dead end?
Now the Kundao Pass is like boiling water, with people roaring, and chariots and horses rushing from inside to outside the pass.
Shen Hao stayed under the Kundark Pass for two days before receiving the order to reunite and led more than 300 supervisory envoys to incorporate into Zuo Yuliang's central army.
The next day, September 25th, early morning.
Without oath or a word of enthusiasm, the central army officially set out, exiting the Kundao Pass and entering the bamboo path, began to move south.
This was Shen Hao's first time following the army, and it was also his first time to go out of the Kunqu Pass to enter a place outside the Jingjiu Dynasty. It was even his first long journey after he arrived in this world.
To be honest, after coming here for a long time, I was really not very adaptable to it after suddenly experiencing a life without a teleportation array.
The first feeling when entering the bamboo path is desolation. Although the name here has the word "bamboo", which seems to be green, in fact, there are very few wild grasses in the bamboo path, let alone trees and bamboo.
This is not a natural state in the bamboo path, but a desolation formed under the deliberate "maintenance" of the border troops day after day. Because trees, flowers and plants block the view, they are more likely to be used by the enemy as siege consumables, such as logging as siege equipment, etc. Grass can be used to supplement food for livestock. Therefore, the border troops still think that clean bamboo paths are more important than anything else.
Even, it is not easy to find a stone of moderate size in the bamboo path. It is either a huge stone or a scattered gravel.
Where is the right stone from about ten to thirty kilograms? The answer is that it has been picked up and kept in the border army, and it is a kind of combat preparation material for consumption.
Yesterday, Shen Hao saw the long-range attack methods in this world, which was quite different from what he had imagined before.
Although it is also a catapult or a catapult, its size is not as large as Shen Hao imagined. Each frame is only more than ten feet long, and the whole is composed of a mix of wood and iron. The thrown things are also stone bullets, the smallest ones are ten kilograms and the large ones are thirty or forty kilograms. The farthest distance thrown is also different when the weight is different.
How can you throw stone bombs from a distance with such a small size? Where does the power come from? Shouldn’t the catapults be huge and have a long swing arm?
These problems were solved by various formation plates attached to the catapult cart, but several spirit stones were needed to provide energy to allow the catapult cart to throw 30 kilograms of stone bombs three miles away.
In addition to throwing stone bombs, it is also OK to throw some turmeric oil bottles. Shen Hao met a captain who was guarding the turmeric oil bottles on the periphery of the Central Army. Half of the man's face was rotten. It is said that it was left by an accident. Since then, he has lived in the turmeric oil warehouse. He will draw his sword to cut off anyone who dares to do anything.
Shen Hao had witnessed military soldiers performing stone casting cars with his own eyes, and secretly evaluated the lethality of this weapon. With his current ninth level of the God-Concentration Realm, he could easily withstand thirty kilograms of stone bullets without being injured by relying on true qi defense alone. Even as long as he was willing, he could not let the stone bullet hit him or smash it with one knife in advance. But if ordinary soldiers could not withstand the bombardment of such stone bullets, even the thick city wall could not withstand such blows for a long time.
The effect of using it to smash the military formation is definitely very good.
In addition to the catapult cart, Shen Hao also found a lot of strange weapons in the army, basically they were created by using magic circles combined with some simple principles. For example, a "beast cart" that can spit out fire, and a "spider legs" that can be equipped to climb cliffs like geckos on a single person.
While gaining knowledge, Shen Hao also remembered the advice Jiang Cheng, Zhang and Gan gave him before, be honest, listen more, watch less, and don’t meddle in other people’s business or disturb Zuo Yuliang.
As the saying goes, Shen Hao has benefited a lot from hearing people's advice. At least after he left the customs, he has touched many rules in the army in the past few days. At the same time, because of his "honestness", the generals in the army have improved their senses, and they feel that this famous Lord Shen is not as difficult as described in the rumors.
However, this morning, Shen Hao received the latest battle situation from the front line through the channel of the supervisory envoy, which made him feel relatively relaxed and tightened.
Just last night, Jianchuan was once again attacked by the barbarians, and even broke through a line of defense and entered the central part of Jianchuan, and launched a fierce attack on Jianchuan's Yushi Soldier Station.
The last mixed army arrived in time to rescue Yushi, and took advantage of the victory to pursue and finally annihilate more than 3,000 enemies.
It sounds like he won. But Jianchuan seems to have been sieve by the barbarians? It is probably a bit difficult to stick to such a defense line for a long time. At least in the eyes of Shen Hao, a guy who is half-in-come, is like this.
However, it depends on the effect of Zuo Yuliang's move forward this time and shortening the front line. If it is good, everything will be easy to say.
