Chapter 352 Yumen Nostalgia
Half a month later, Qibi Heli's injury finally healed, although he was not healed, he was still injured.No one dared to delay any longer. If the delay in arriving at Gaochang Kingdom in winter caused doubled casualties in the army, then no one would be able to escape the wrath of His Majesty Li Er.
Qibi Heli led [-] healthy soldiers from Zhechong Prefecture in Guazhou, as the vanguard of the army, and went straight to Gaochang State.
Tie Le of the Qibi tribe is one of the nine surnames Tie Le. Although Xue Yantuo, another branch of the Nine Tie Le family, was forced into a corner and had to seek refuge in the Tang Dynasty, his tribe was also a tribe with strong fighting power on the frontier and lived outside the Great Wall for generations. , Mobility and combat effectiveness are not inferior to the main force of the Tang army.
Hou Junji led the main force day and night, marching westward along the old road of Hexi, all the tribes in the Western Regions along the way were frightened, fearing that the Tang army would find a reason to wipe them out, and they donated horses, money and food to express their support for the loyalty of the Tang Dynasty...
Fang Jun was very depressed.
Hou Junji blatantly suppressed, without hesitation of His Majesty Li Er's intention to sharpen the combat power of the Shenji Battalion, firmly put the Shenji Battalion at the rear of the army, and did not give Fang Jun the slightest chance to make meritorious deeds.
He really doesn't need to care too much about His Majesty Li Er's intentions.
The general is away, and the king's order is not accepted. In this western expedition army, Hou Junji is the one and only existence, and no one dares to question any of his decisions.Even though His Majesty Li Er was dissatisfied with his suppression of the Shenji Camp afterwards, even His Majesty Li Er had nothing to say after the illustrious military exploits in the destruction of Gaochang Kingdom.
Fortunately, although Fang Jun had no choice but to do anything about Hou Junji's actions, he did not miss the opportunity of this western expedition in vain.
He can play by himself...
The Shenji Battalion followed the Supplies Battalion and the Injury and Illness Battalion. Fang Jun played the training methods he had seen on TV in his previous life, armed cross-country, gathering in the middle of the night, marching in a hurry, and exercising in emergencies...
Completely treat the Shenji Battalion as a force for future generations to conduct drills.
At the same time, he is more concerned about the situation in the injury camp.
The wounded and sick battalion in the Tang army is not an independent one, but goes all the way, and at intervals, a wounded and sick battalion will be set up near the town fortress to collect the wounded for treatment and treatment.Then it will be taken care of by the local doctor of Zhechong Prefecture, and then set off with the army doctor to the next place to set up a new wounded and sick camp.
Walking all the way in this way, the wounded and sick battalion will set up a road to treat the wounded as much as possible.
The sick and wounded battalions will be withdrawn one by one until the war is over.
Fei Yu did not stay in Guazhou, but marched westward with the army. He almost worshiped Fang Jun's "suture method". It is necessary to write a medical technique and spread this suturing method.
How can Ge Zhongxing lag behind such a great achievement in writing books and talking about it?
After all, he is Fang Jun's "personal disciple". How can Fei Yu, a country doctor, be more beautiful than before?
Therefore, Fang Jun's journey is not too boring...
The marching speed of the army was significantly accelerated, and after a few days, they passed the Yumen Pass.
Strictly speaking, this is the first time Fang Jun saw the appearance of a building he had seen in his previous life 500 years ago...
Yumen Pass was built with yellow clay, with two gates in the northwest.The city wall is ten meters high, with a female wall on the top and a horse path on the bottom, so that people and horses can go straight to the top.
Guansai is surrounded by swamps, ravines, towering towers, tall and straight Populus euphratica, and the winding Hulu River is clear and misty.Red willows, swaying reeds, and the majestic appearance of Guguan complement each other.
Fang Jun couldn't help being fascinated, with mixed feelings, and nostalgia for the past spontaneously arose.
At the entrance of Yumen Pass in the previous life, there is a stone tablet erected by modern people. The "Liangzhou Ci" written by Wang Zhihuan, a poet of the Tang Dynasty, is engraved in seal script: "The Yellow River is far above the white clouds, and there is an isolated city of Wanren Mountain. Why should the Qiang flute complain about the willows? The spring breeze does not pass Yumen Pass." .”
In fact, Fang Jun felt that another poem could better reveal the temperament of Yumenguan.
"Qinghai Changyun Dark Snow Mountain, the lonely city looks at Yumen Pass. Yellow sand wears golden armor in a hundred battles, and Loulan will not be returned if it is not broken."
A modern person cannot understand the status of the ancient Yumen Pass in Han Jiaerlang's mind.
The Yumen Pass at this time is not the ruins of the isolated city of the later generations. As an important place on the Silk Road, not only a large number of troops are stationed, but also a strong pass for merchants to enter and exit the Central Plains. , A car of Chinese and foreign materials, Chinese and foreign mixed, Chinese and foreign gathered, prosperous and prosperous!
The army drove out of Xiongguan, and merchants fled one after another.
Fang Jun and Liu Rengui rode their horses to a stop. Seeing Hou Ye's expression of leaping thoughts, the latter couldn't help asking: "Hou Ye, what's wrong?"
Fang Jun shook his head and said, "I just thought of a poem and felt a little touched."
Liu Rengui was refreshed when he heard the words: "What poem is it? Can you show it to the general?"
He is a Confucian general, he has read a lot of military books and strategies, and he has read a lot of poems and classics.Moreover, I have heard Fang Jun's reputation as "seven talents", how can he let go of his good opportunity to compose poems and fus with feelings in his heart?
That's right, Liu Rengui naturally thought that this was Fang Jun's momentary feeling, and he made up the poem...
Fang Jun didn't correct the meaning of Liu Rengui's words. If he read out the poems 100 years later, they would be his own poems. Unless he didn't write poems all his life, anyone would have to attribute these unborn poems to him.
Besides, how could he let go of the title of "the greatest poet of all time"?
He has no so-called moral cleanliness...
The Xiongguan Fortress in front of you, the desert next door in the distance, and the scorching sun overhead all condense a heavy breath of time.
Fang Jun turned his horse's head and chased after the large army. His deep voice echoed in the wind: "The flags of the Han family are all over the Yin Mountains, and they don't send Hu'er horses back. I hope I can serve the country with this body. Why do I need to be born in Yumen Pass!"
How many gold and iron horses, how many vicissitudes of mausoleums and valleys, how many flying feathers, how much ambition and tenderness.
How many slender hand-sewn garments were transported from the Central Plains to this proud border by the slow-moving caravan?
The dense stitches, stitched with infinite lovesickness and blood and tears, were distributed to every warrior on the border during the journey of thousands of miles.
The early wind is like a knife, and the battle flag reflects the clouds. How many men fought bloody battles in the flying sand and arrows, and they never returned, and there was no news?How many territories and feats have been eroded and dimmed by the passage of time?
Generation after generation of Han family sons and daughters have gone forward and succeeded in blood-staining Xiongguan, just to be majestic and guard the homeland behind them!
Fang Jun's figure has gradually faded away, but Liu Rengui is still in place, a little lost.
"I would like to serve the country with this body, why do I need to be born into Yumen Pass?!"
A heroic period suddenly surged in my heart!
This is the way I want to go!
It may be full of thorns, it may be rough, but so what?
If you want to serve the country with this length, why should you be born in Yumen Pass!
Liu Rengui let out a long laugh, ignoring the astonished travelers and merchants around him, he rode his horse and chased after Fang Jun's back.
Ahead lies the boundless Gobi desert...

The army was stationed again at Puchanghai, which was the last stop before entering Gaochang State.
There are two ways to go out of Yumen Pass to Gaochang State.
Going north from Yumen Pass, crossing Yizhou and entering Gaochang State, this road is a bit remote.The other is to follow the endless stream of merchants along the Silk Road to Puchanghai, and then go north to Gaochang State.
From a military point of view, taking the first road can achieve more unexpected results, and this road has relatively fewer deserts, which can speed up the marching speed.
But Hou Junji chose the second path without hesitation.
Why did Tang Dynasty prefer to afford a large amount of military expenses and dispatch tens of thousands of troops to conquer Gaochang?
Datang didn't pay much attention to the territory of Gaochang Kingdom.
The main purpose is to deter the countries of the Western Regions!
In the Western Regions at this time, Gaochang was considered the king of monkeys, and the real tiger was the Western Turks.
But His Majesty Li Er, who is so arrogant and arrogant, doesn't think so. He thinks that he should be a tiger, and one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. The master of the Western Regions can only be Datang!
However, the strength of the Western Turks is quite strong, and it is not easy to win in one fell swoop, and the surrender of other countries in the Western Regions also needs to be further consolidated.
Since you can't become a fat man by eating one bite, then implement the cannibalization plan, step by step, and fight steadily.
Due to the geographical location of Gaochang Kingdom, unfortunately, it was honorably selected as a key target.
In Gaochang, Qu Wentai did not have a strong sense of crisis. Considering that there was a natural barrier of the desert between himself and the Tang Dynasty, and that his country had signed an alliance with the Western Turks to support each other in an emergency, he was naturally as stable as Mount Tai.
Ju Wentai's series of bad performances prompted His Majesty Li Er, who has been competitive all his life, to make up his mind to clean up Gao Changguo, and he couldn't wait!
