Guo Ziyi thought for a moment and then replied,"I also fought in the army." Wang Zhongsi's eyes were sharp, and he knew that he couldn't hide it, so he told the truth.
"In a foreign country?"
Guo Ziyi nodded." Yes, I am a Tang, but I am fighting for others in a foreign country. But I've never fought with the Tang army, nor have I ever invaded an inch of the Tang Empire's land. I'm only here for money.”Guo Ziyi covered up the fact that she had transmigrated, but most of what she said was true.
As a Chinese sergeant major in the foreign legion, he had never been a citizen of Somalia, but he had been fighting for the country of Somalia. Other than his interest in the military, he was also doing it for the high salary.
Guo Ziyi knew that he was actually a mercenary. Although the flames of war and firearms gave him a sense of pleasure, he never felt a sense of belonging and security.
But now, he had transmigrated to the Tang Empire. He was wearing the clothes of the Tang army and holding a sword of the Tang Dynasty. He was charging forward with a group of Tang soldiers who had the same bloodline as him. He was fighting against bandits and killing enemies to protect his land and home.
The sense of belonging and steadiness in Guo Ziyi's heart was something he had never felt before. On the battlefield, he became even more heroic and even more willing to risk his life.
Guo Ziyi gradually understood that a real soldier was not to plunder and occupy, but to guard and protect!
Seeing that Guo Ziyi was lost in thought, Wang Zhongsi didn't ask further.
"No matter what, you're back now, a citizen of the Great Tang, a commandant of the Great Tang!”Wang Zhongsi's voice contained a rare hint of excitement.
Guo Ziyi's heart was also filled with pride, and his blood was boiling!
In this room were two real soldiers.
"Report! There's a military report!" The voice of a Tang Dynasty soldier came from outside the hall.
"Come in!" Wang Zhongsi immediately ordered.
A Tang messenger quickly ran into the hall and handed Wang Zhongsi a military report.
"The front has already detected the Tibetan vanguard. There are about 10,000 people in total, and they are less than 50 miles away from Yuchuan City!”The messenger of the Tang army said hurriedly.
"What kind of army is it?" Wang Zhongsi asked as he unfolded the report.
"Most of them are cavalrymen, and there are also a few archers and siege troops. Also, according to the scouts at the front, this vanguard was not Tibetan!”
"If he's not a Tibetan, then who is he?”Guo Ziyi was surprised and asked.
"It's Tuyuhun's troops, led by their Fushan Khagan.”The Tang Dynasty messenger immediately replied.
"Tuyuhun?" Guo Ziyi turned to Wang Zhongsi, not understanding what he meant.
"Tuyuhun is a small country sandwiched between the Great Tang and the Tubo," Wang Zhongsi explained."It has always been on good terms with the Great Tang. After the Tubo became powerful, Tuyuhun submitted to the Tubo. I didn't expect that they would also rise up this time and actually dare to send troops to our Great Tang!”
Hearing Wang Zhongsi's explanation, Guo Ziyi understood that this Tuyuhun was a little brother who had been dragged into this fight by his powerful elder brother!
Moreover, Tuguhun was a very aggrieved follower. Songdu Zanpo used him as the vanguard to fight the Tang army head-on. He was used to dampen the morale of the Tang army. The Tibetan leader was very unkind.
"With the speed of the cavalry, they should be able to reach Yuchuan City by evening.”Guo Ziyi thought for a moment and then said.
Wang Zhongsi nodded, his expression unfazed. He sat down on a chair in the room and turned to Guo Ziyi."Now that the Tuyuhun vanguard is about to arrive, how do you think we should deal with it?”
Guo Ziyi knew that Wang Zhongsi was testing him again, and his mind began to work quickly.
"We can't just defend the city. We should take the initiative to go out of the city to meet the enemy and defeat them first.”After a while, Guo Ziyi answered in a clear voice.
Wang Zhongsi's eyes flickered as he asked,"How should we fight?"
Guo Ziyi's mind began to churn. Among all the military gods and generals, Guo Ziyi admired the founder of New China the most. He was a leader who had made great achievements in history. He was a man of great talent and strategy. His poems were magnificent and magnificent. He was also a soldier like a god.
Guo Ziyi had read every single one of this great man's military writings and had memorized them all. He had also carefully studied every classic battle case. Guo Ziyi had some understanding and experience of this great man's military strategy.
The room fell silent again.
After a while, their gazes met.
Wang Zhongsi's eyes were warm and filled with hope, while Guo Ziyi's eyes were solemn and filled with a hint of spirit.
"We can't engage in positional warfare. We should eliminate the enemy while we move.”Guo Ziyi said. This was also one of the military thoughts of the great man.
Wang Zhongsi didn't immediately express his opinion. Instead, he warmly looked at Guo Ziyi."Continue."
"Since the other party sent cavalry, we should also respond with cavalry. Although using infantry to kill cavalry with Mo knives was effective, the casualties were too great. When dealing with a large number of cavalrymen, they were also powerless.”After the battle in Yanzhou, Guo Ziyi still felt deeply moved.
"The biggest advantage of cavalry is their mobility. They can fight mobile battles. If used properly, they can fight ten people at once. When Yanzhou was besieged, didn't Lord Wang also lead 8,000 cavalry to the rescue? The reason the Turkic army had retreated so quickly was largely due to Lord Wang's cavalry.”Guo Ziyi continued.
"Like the Turks, the Tibetan army is mainly cavalry. This is their greatest advantage. Although the Tuyuhun cavalry was not as strong as the Tubo and Turkic cavalry, they still had ten thousand men, a force that could not be underestimated. Does Commandant Shen mean to use our cavalry to fight Tuguhun's cavalry first?”Wang Zhongsi faintly smiled.
Guo Ziyi immediately nodded and continued,"That's right. Lord Wang, how many cavalrymen do we have in the city?”
"Three thousand cavalrymen." Wang Zhongsi immediately replied.
Guo Ziyi was stunned for a moment. In her heart, she felt that this number was indeed a little small.
Wang Zhongsi faintly smiled."What's wrong, Commandant Shen? Back in Yanzhou, you dared to fight against the fifty thousand Turkic cavalry with a thousand soldiers with General Taba Feng, but now you don't dare to use these three cavalrymen against the ten thousand Tuyuhun cavalry?”
"Of course not!" Guo Ziyi immediately responded.
Wang Zhongsi naturally knew what he was thinking, and his words had been a provocation.
"Don't worry, Commandant Shen. These three thousand cavalrymen are all elites of the army. You can go and see their general first. Although this cavalry unit is not large in number, he was the one who brought it up.”Wang Zhongsi smiled.
"Who is the general?"
"Your sworn brother, Taba Feng!”
