Chapter 1402: Blitz Tongliao! (9)
ps: Beg for monthly tickets!
"Lao Lu, have you eaten?" Ying Ruoyu asked with his head raised.
"I've eaten a little on the road!" Lu Shan nodded, but his eyes were always staring at the sand table without raising his head!
"Guardian!"
"arrive!"
"Go to the kitchen to see what you have to eat, get some food!" Ying Ruoyu ordered. He knew Lu Shan's temper. If he had to do it in the kitchen, he would definitely be scolded. It would be better to eat whatever he had!
"Mr. Ying, is it okay to cook cabbage and mutton?" the guard asked.
"Okay, just cook mutton with cabbage!" Ying Ruoyu nodded and waved his hand to order.
"Wait a minute!" Lu Shan called the guard and said, "You can also send some of the four young people who came back with me, so that Lao Guo can prepare some things in person and make three dishes and one soup!"
"yes!"
"Mr. Lu, I haven't asked you yet, what are these two men and two women?" Ying Ruoyu asked in surprise.
"Young students, I met them on the road!" Lu Shan said with a smile.
"Student, oh, what's going on?" Ying Ruoyu said intriguedly.
"That's right. Last night we passed by Qianjiadian and stayed in a small hotel..." Lu Shan briefly said what he encountered last night.
"I have heard of Jiang Lianrui. An officer from the Northeast Army has served as a soldier under Chang Jingwu. He is upright and not a powerful man, but a selfless and good official!" Ying Ruoyu said.
"Chang Jingwu, has he worked as the regiment commander Chang Jingwu in the 7th Brigade?" Lu Shan asked in surprise.
"Yes, speaking of it, you are both from the Seventh Brigade and Lao Lu. But he is older than you. The predecessor of the Seventh Brigade is the First Brigade of the Northeast Army. Further forward is Deputy Commander Zhang's personal bodyguard!" Ying Ruoyu said.
"This Jiang Lianrui is considered an old man. I heard from Jiang Tingfang that his father had worked as a deputy to the League, so he was at least a lieutenant colonel?" Lu Shan said in surprise.
"No wonder, the officer who came out of Zhang Hanqing's guard must at least be a major!" Ying Ruoyu said, "General Lu was born in the Northeast Army, why don't he even know these?"
"I have been in the army for only a few years. Besides, I was a soldier at that time, so I didn't know these!" Lu Shan shook his head and smiled.
"I'm wondering, with your ability, how could you be a soldier for two years or a big-headed soldier?" Ying Ruoyu asked.
"I don't like flattering, so of course I'm not happy!" Lu Shan called and laughed.
"It's impossible. If other troops don't give gifts to their bosses, they won't be promoted without flattering horses. This Seventh Brigade will definitely not be. It's Zhang Hanqing's most important unit. If he's promoted by flattering horses, how could the Seventh Brigade be named the Northeast Army Imperial Army?" Ying Ruoyu said.
"I don't know either. Anyway, I'm just a big soldier. Maybe no one knew a hero at that time!" Lu Shan said.
"Well, the world is so great, there are more than a thousand talents missing. Mr. Lu, you are one of them. I'm pitiful, Mr. Zhang!" Ying Ruoyu sighed.
"Okay, don't mention this matter anymore, just talk about the serious matter!" Lu Shan stopped and said, "How do you plan to connect Liao?"
"The Japanese army built a lot of fortifications inside and outside Tongliao City, especially after we took down Taonan and Zhengjiatun, they built fortifications on the east bank of the Xiliao River and the north bank. They are still building them continuously. More than 3,000 migrant workers, I have sent a reconnaissance team to get the fortifications and defense maps built before we attack. As long as we have the enemy's fortifications and defense maps, we can find their weaknesses and break through in one fell swoop!" Ying Ruoyu said.
"So, our attack direction is to launch an attack on the west bank of the West Liao River to the east bank?" Lu Shan asked.
"Well, we want to take a detour from the south, but this will increase our chances of exposure. Moreover, the fortifications in the south have been built long ago, so it is difficult for us to obtain information, which will increase the difficulty of our siege!" Ying Ruoyu explained.
"Your idea is right, which can reduce casualties and ensure the chance of victory. However, even if we occupy the periphery of Tongliao, how to attack the city is still a big problem!" Lu Shan nodded.
"After the Japanese occupied Tongliao, they built earth walls around them and dug trenches to lure the water from the Xiliao River into the city, forming a moat that circles the city. However, this moat is a little useful in summer and autumn. Now, this moat has provided us with convenience for attacks. So, I think if we want to attack the city, it is enough to prepare enough ladders!" Ying Ruoyu said.
"Then did you choose to siege?"
"It's better to be in the evening or dawn!" Ying Ruoyu said.
"In the evening, it is easy to expose whereabouts. At dawn and marching at night, it seems to be quite unfavorable to us!" Lu Shan frowned.
"No need to worry about this. All the soldiers of Xing'an Army captured were Mongolians living on the Korqin grassland. They were more familiar with the environment here than us. Even if they marched in the dark night, they would not go in the wrong direction!" Ying Ruoyu said.
"Well, this is true. With a guide, you won't get lost or fall behind in this night march!" Lu Shan nodded.
After a while, the guard brought in a bowl of steaming cabbage-roasted mutton, with a layer of red spicy food and a sprinkled sesame seeds. It was so tempting!
"It's so fragrant, Lao Ying, do you come some too?" Lu Shan said droolingly.
"No, I ate a lot at noon. Now my stomach is still bulging and I can't eat it anymore!" Ying Ruoyu shook his hand quickly and said.
Lu Shan brought the big sea bowl over, picked up a piece of mutton and put it in his mouth, chewed it for a while and swallowed it in his stomach: "Not bad, not bad, this mutton is so tender and delicious!"
"This is a lamb that has not been weaned yet!" Ying Ruoyu said, "How can you make it not delicious?"
"No wonder the smell is not strong, and there is also a fragrance. It turns out to be a little lamb!" Lu Shan said in surprise, "How can such a small lamb be slaughtered and eaten?"
"The grass is insufficient, so the adult sheep must be given priority. The lambs can only be eaten, and only then can be eaten. Who can bear to slaughter the lambs on weekdays?" Ying Ruoyu explained.
"So that's how it is!" Lu Shan nodded. If it were not forbidden, who would have been willing to slaughter the young lamb to eat meat, "Where did this lamb come from?"
"The Xing'an army has its own ranch, which they are raised in their ranch!" Ying Ruoyu said.
"Haha, that's right, it's a bargain for us!" Lu Shan smiled.
"There are excellent pastures on the Korqin Grassland. I have a plan. Lao Lu, see if it is..."
"Build a ranch and cultivate our own war horses?" Lu Shan smiled. How could he not understand Ying Ruoyu's thoughts?
"Yes, that's what I think!"
"From the long-term development of our army, this is necessary, and in the future, our demand for war horses will increase, and it is also necessary to establish a military-owned ranch. However, we need to establish a military-local relationship. We set up a ranch that cannot infringe on the rights and interests of local herders and people. It is not possible to cultivate excellent war horses in one or two days. We need professional personnel, and if necessary, we need to introduce good varieties and breed our local war horses!" Lu Shan thought for a moment and said.
"Well, the commander-in-chief is the commander-in-chief. In this blink of an eye, it is even more detailed than I thought!"
"I just thought about what I said. I was not in a hurry to choose a ranch site, but we have to choose a Bimawen first!" Lu Shan said with a smile.
"Bimawen, where did you ask me to find a monkey who only knows how to raise horses?" Ying Ruoyu laughed.
"There may not be monkeys who can raise horses, but there must be people who can raise horses. You can get a recruitment list. I don't believe that there is no master who can raise horses in the huge Korqin grassland?" Lu Shan said with a smile.
"I will turn around and ask the people from the logistics department to get a notice to see the effect!" Ying Ruoyu nodded.
"Don't worry, take your time. The Japanese are farther than us in this regard. Let's go back and order, and try to capture any technical Japanese troops who can capture them as much as possible."
Lu Shan has a very good appetite. In a blink of an eye, a large bowl of cabbage and mutton was found to the bottom. He only felt warm all over his body and was very comfortable.
"Are you full? But, let's have another bowl?"
"No, I'm almost overeating this big bowl. No, I'll go out for a walk and move!" Lu Shan stroked his stomach and said, "Monkey, come out, let's practice!"
"Here, here..." Yang Shangwu was holding a big sea bowl in his hand, and chopsticks thicker than his fingers kept pouring them into his mouth, with sweat on his forehead!
"Wait, Mr. Lu, I'll finish the bowl!" Yang Shangwu said while whimpering, wrapping cabbage and mutton.
"Waiting for you to finish eating!" Lu Shan smiled slightly. This guy must have eaten more than one bowl!
Yang Shangwu will definitely eat voraciously. I don’t know how he digests it. Anyway, how much he eats, it can’t be seen in his stomach. Maybe all those who come from Shaolin Temple have developed a good belly!
"Here you come!" Yang Shangwu threw away the chopsticks and bowl after eating, wiping his mouth, and rushed towards Lu Shan directly!
"drink!"
The punch hit the chest with a shocking speed, and it also made a series of sonic booms!
"Monk, you have made great progress!" Lu Shan smiled. Although he was injured for a long time, he usually did some restorative exercises to keep his body in the best condition, but he had to admit that once this fist was put down or relaxed, he could feel the regression.
However, Lu Shan's body is still very young and has not reached its peak. Even if he reaches its peak, he is confident that he can maintain it for about ten years. As for ten years in, when he reaches its forties, he will definitely go downhill. This is a necessary process for warriors!
Of course, it is not to say that it will not work after 40. As the cultivation level becomes more and more profound, except for the explosive power not as good as that of young people, other aspects can be compensated. This is why martial arts masters are not opponents when they are fifty or sixty years old!
jingyàn, eyesight, and realm, all depend on time to accumulate!
Genius is rare, and true martial arts masters are all practiced hard, otherwise why did Chinese martial arts be passed down and become a symbol of culture!
