Chapter 1478 The Fusang people are willing to fight

"Lao Du, how is the situation here?"

Du Aitong's ascent was a little slower, so he now only had more than sixty people under his command. Seeing the expression on Wei Shuyu's face, he knew what was going on. The guy also shook his head feebly at the back.

In the morning, it was his turn to lead the patrol out. In the past, when the brothers went out, they were all snarling little tigers, but the war here is too hard. In order to ambush us, these people can even If you stay in a tree for a night, there are many mosquitoes here. If you stay in a tree for a night, your head will be full of bites.

But the fighting will of these guys is so strong. No matter how we destroy their defense facilities, even if there are only a few people left, these people will attack us without hesitation. Although the final result is death, They really tried their best to exchange their lives for our soldiers.

"Speaking of evil, aren't those Vietnamese in the north real Vietnamese? When they encounter us having the upper hand, they will lay down their weapons and surrender. Look at these people in the south, even if they are the last one left, It will bring us a lot of trouble. When I went out in the morning, I took sixty-two people with me, and when I came back, there were three more corpses."

When Du Aitong said this, he was extremely sad. During this period, he got along with everyone just like brothers. Of course, he did not hope that some people would sleep here forever, but the war would not be what you think. If If there is a little bit of poor planning, this kind of thing will happen.

"The higher-ups need to change this strategy. I also know what the higher-ups are thinking. They just don't want us to have too much hatred with the local people. If there is such a big hatred, I'm afraid we won't be able to get along with each other in the future. But now the number of casualties has skyrocketed, which is really terrible.”

Wei Shuyu took a fancy to the direction of the big tent, where Li Xiang and the generals were discussing things. If we could make a decision early, our brothers would be able to suffer fewer casualties. It is obvious that the local people are almost as good as the soldiers. If If we treat them as ordinary people again, then it will be our problem.

"Look, look, our general is coming."

When the two of them were sighing here, the military meeting over there had already adjourned. The two of them quickly went to their general. They were both the lowest-ranking officers. This general could command more than two thousand people. People are considered the immediate bosses of these people.

"General Guo, are there any new orders?"

Wei Shuyu is a bit out of control. He used to be very calm, but in the past two days, the number of casualties of his soldiers has increased sharply, so this guy is a bit out of control. If he continues in this way, If we fight, the people under his command will suffer even greater losses. When the time comes, let alone him, not even ordinary soldiers will be willing to do so.

"There are new orders. You should rest first. At this time tomorrow, a group of soldiers will arrive from the sea. Of course, these people are not our Datang army, but they wear some of the military uniforms of the Datang army. They are all It was brought from Fuso and Goguryeo. I don’t need to say more about the rest. From now on, you will only be responsible for fighting along the transportation lines, and leave the fighting into the village to them. "

General Guo's face showed joy. All the people in the village have been hurt in the past few days, mainly because we are unable to prevent it, but we cannot kill everyone in the village. If this is the case, In the next few decades, we will probably have to confront the local people in this area, which will be extremely detrimental to the rule of the Tang Dynasty.

So Li Xiang planned to adopt the old method of mobilizing troops from other places. Among them, the people from Goguryeo and Fusang were the best. The combat effectiveness of these two armies was not bad. The most important thing was that they were obedient and put their two armies in the same place. Together, they will compete with each other, and it will be us, Datang, who will ultimately benefit. This kind of thing has been tried several times before.

Wei Shuyu and Du Aitong didn't quite understand. After all, it was their first time to go to the battlefield, but the other junior commanders around them were all happy. It turned out that when they fought in other places, they had a bad relationship with the local people. , whenever this happens, Fuso people need to work hard.

Let them do the worst things. Our Datang army can even stand by and act as notaries. Especially when they go too far, we can also pull a few people from their army and chop them up in the street. , which can also win over local people's hearts.

Coming out of the general's tent, the two of them were still confused. They were just killing people. Wouldn't it be the same if we killed these Fuso people? The Fusang people here also represent our Tang Dynasty army. Wouldn't it cause hatred if they killed people?

Some other officers looked at the two people with confused looks, and didn't know what to say at the moment. You two pure recruits, when the war starts again, you will know the reason why His Highness did this, and now you don't. I have explained it to you, and you will understand it yourself in practice.

There is such a habit in the army of the Tang Dynasty. No matter how you did things in the past, as long as you understand it in practice, you will be much better than what others tell you, and you will really remember it in your heart.

At ten o'clock at noon the next day, dozens of large ships stopped on the seaside, carrying a total of nearly 8,000 soldiers, of which 3,000 were from Goguryeo and 5,000 were from Fusang. They were all from the Tang Dynasty. If it was shipped along the coast from these people's hometowns, it would be too time-consuming, and the war on the front line would not allow it.

According to the size of the army, both Wei Shuyu and Du Aitong were assigned two hundred servants. These people were to cooperate with them in fighting. The army under their command instantly reached several hundred people.

Wei Shuyu was a little worried at first. After all, His Highness often said that people who are not of my race must have different thoughts. He also felt that these people were not easy to lead and might make trouble during the war, so he asked his subordinates to be on guard against these people. Fuso people.

But soon he discovered that these people were very progressive. Because these people had wives and children at home, there was no possibility of rebellion. They just wanted to make contributions on the front line and wait until their Tang officers wrote comments to them. When I return home, my family will have a better life, at least they don’t have to work for more than ten hours a day and eat cornbread... (End of Chapter)
