But the problem is that its usefulness or uselessness seems to be completely based on the level and judgment of the opposing commander Gao Jingshan. At the same time, although everyone may understand it in their hearts, Song Jun's commander Yue Pengju cannot provide clear evidence that these people's actions are critical and necessary.
They couldn't give it to their superiors, they couldn't give it to their subordinates, they couldn't give it to Xiao En and his subordinates, and they couldn't give it to the other soldiers who might be dissatisfied because Xiao En and his subordinates took the credit later. But in order to ensure the success of the overall battle plan, so many brave men were forced to sacrifice their lives in vain.
There is no way. The so-called Imperial Camp Army is just a force that was only established and integrated eight years ago. Although it is already a complex system with mature routines, such as the secret letter system, the commanding officer system, the pro-military culture, etc., it still has not formed specific military terminology based on this specific tactic to make people generally recognize the value of this sacrifice, just like everyone recognizes the necessity of scouts without saying anything.
Of course, Yue Fei on the city and Xiao En in the river are undoubtedly establishing this mechanism now... because when Yue Fei issued this military order, Xiao En executed it without hesitation.
Yue Fei sat there dully, not knowing what Xiao En was thinking, nor what You Xuejiu was thinking, but for him who was good at thinking, he couldn't help feeling a little dazed at this moment… Kindness does not command the army, and righteousness does not command wealth. Words can be said lightly and military orders can be written with gritted teeth, but when he really sits here and forces himself to listen to the sounds of cannonballs flying in the air, hitting ships and injuring people, then he will realize what he has done.
The Northern Expedition is just, recovering the two rivers is necessary, and national reunification is great. No one can deny this, just as Emperor Zhao said in the latest issue of the court bulletin... At this point, no one can deny that the Song Dynasty and this era are jointly writing their own grand chapters... This somewhat convoluted and strange statement, when read for the first time, inevitably makes people suspect that it was written by Emperor Zhao after he was overjoyed and drunk after breaking through Yangliang South Pass at the southern end of Queshu Valley in the east direction of the river.
How to write articles in the Song Dynasty?
Era means period. How can we write an article about a period of time?
Still writing together?
However, when I read it carefully, I find it has a unique charm.
The last issue published an old poem that Prince Han recited when he asked for battle, which shook the roof tiles of Tieling Pass on the spot. After it was published in the newspaper, it shocked the world. However, he only said "I have completed the affairs of the king and the world, and won a good reputation in my lifetime and after my death". Those who strive for it are just to leave their names in history. People can leave their names in history, countries are made by people, and times are created by people. Countries and times write articles together, which makes people feel that the metaphor is wonderful.
After reading it, Yue Fei indeed had a feeling that "a real man should be like this" - I, Yue Fei, also want to write a grand chapter of my own.
Moreover, combined with the previous ten years of hard work and experience, Yue Fei had enough confidence and courage to tell everyone, just as it was said in the official article, that this chapter was just, necessary, great, and unquestionable, and it clearly distinguished between friend and foe.
However, between light and shadow, in brightness and darkness, while listening to the sounds in the river ahead, Yue Fei had to admit that this chapter was too big, huge enough to crush anyone.
The decade-long despair of the people of the two rivers, the years of desolation in the Central Plains, and the heavy taxes borne by the people of the southeast for many years are all footnotes to this chapter.
This is not helplessness or selfishness, nor is it a complete lack of self-awareness and greatness. It is just the sheer insignificance of the individual and his insignificance in the tide of the times.
It was as if at this moment, the lives of countless heroes were easily wiped out by the sounds of the night.
"marshal."
The one who broke the silence was Bei Yan, who had been in a state of panic. He suddenly stepped forward and shouted hurriedly.
"What?"
Yue Fei responded in a deep voice.
"The sound of cannonballs falling into the water is half as loud." Bei Yan explained hurriedly. "Either half of the ship was lost, or half of it broke through, or the ships were broken and couldn't move, so they were squeezed together..."
Yue Fei glanced at this familiar man and suddenly realized that the other party was reminding him that no matter it was a real surprise attack on the river or a feint attack, the battle was either successful or failed, and there was no need to continue.
I just don't know if Bei Yan, as a low-ranking officer, can guess that it is a feint attack.
Of course, this thought lasted only a moment. Yue Fei immediately forced himself to calm down and listen carefully to the unbearable sound of cannonballs. And sure enough, just as the meticulous and cautious Bei Yan said, the dull plop sounds of the Jin army's cannonballs hitting the water were obviously much more frequent.
However, Yue Fei still found it difficult to give orders because he only knew that a dozen ships had landed before the war, and Wang Gui had not yet told him how many ships had successfully arrived at the river behind Yuancheng.
What's more, tonight is more than just a ferry.
As if he had seen through Yue Fei's thoughts, Bei Yan hurriedly said carefully: "Marshal, if we feint and make the Jin army pay attention to other places, our high-profile rescue itself can actually delay time... If we don't retreat after suffering so many losses, I'm afraid it will make the enemy suspicious."
Yue Fei was finally stunned for a moment, and then he looked up and down at this old friend who was less than two or three steps away from him, as if he was meeting him for the first time... But after just a moment, he put away his extra thoughts and made a decision on the spot:
"In this case, light the fire immediately and rush down to the river to rescue!"
