Chapter 48: Attack on Dova Castle
This time, everyone felt more comfortable, the warmth effect of woolen clothes was very good, not to mention the bamboo armor was also covered with an impermeable leather coat outside, wearing leather boots, with wool gloves, wool hat, except for a little cold on the face, it can be said that there is no difference from the house.
After traveling a hundred miles in a day, I arrived near the city of Dova Yue in two days, and the coal made a fire, which was warm and there was no smoke, and it was only necessary to pay attention to ventilation, which was repeatedly emphasized; Wheat flour is added with milk powder, as well as meat grains, burn a can of snow water, pour it into the clay pot from the bamboo tube, stir slowly, and you can eat hot rice after a while, if you don't like the taste, you can also add a little pickle into it, the whole process only takes 20 minutes, convenient, fast, not only full, the taste is also good.
"Alas! I can't believe that we can not only march in winter, but also enjoy it so much! Zhang Zhongjian touched his stomach with satisfaction and sighed.
Their food is made by Zou Yu alone, yak meat cubes, chicken cubes, fish cubes, a variety of flavors, according to personal preferences, as well as boiled and dried mountain mushroom pieces, and most importantly, deer antler velvet, ginseng, although there are only a little, very little, but enough to supplement human nutrition.
"Yes! used to gnaw hard cakes, and the older veterans secretly complained to themselves. Han Qianxun sighed.
"It's not much hot food, it's like dog food." Zhang Zhongjian continued to complain.
"Come on, try the private food I brought." Zou Yu took out a large plate of sausage and bacon that had just been cut, put it in the middle and greeted.
"Alas! If Xiao Yu was born in the prosperous era, he could be a rich man with just this food. Zhang Zhongjian bit the sausage, his big mouth squirmed quickly, swallowed his stomach and sighed.
"Mmmm, it's easy to handle, and the taste is not worse than the imperial meal." Han Qianxun nodded in agreement.
Although I have eaten it many times, my love for sausages is increasing unabated, and the sausages made by Zou Yu are not only added with pepper salt, but also mustard seeds, which are spicy, of course, no one likes them.
"Here you go." Knowing that Hei Sumei likes sweets, Zou Yu specially brought two cans of canned fruit.
After the fruit grafting this year, the taste is much better, most of it is distributed to everyone, a small number of bad taste wine, the best ones are of course their high-level people, and a little Zou Yu made canned food.
"Hmm!" Hei Sumei took it and smiled sweetly, her eyes were full of sweetness, but unfortunately Zou Yu's eyes didn't look at it, which made her feel unhappy.
Not to mention that Zhang Zhongjian and others are satisfied, there is no one who is dissatisfied in the past two days, this kind of military food is only equipped when marching, and it is still a big pot of rice in peacetime, and the taste must not be compared, especially many are Khitan and other ethnic minorities, the original cooking is very rough, and generally only the taste of salt, where like Zou Yu, pursues exquisite deliciousness.
After repairing for a long time, the sky was slightly dark, Zou Yu, Zhang Zhongjian, Qin Qiong, and Fangzheng were two brothers, and they brought hundreds of people as pioneers to touch Duofa Yue City.
Like many peninsula cities, Duovayue City belongs to the mid-mountain city, and the trees outside the city have long been cut down, which can be described as within a thousand meters, at a glance, fortunately, no one is on guard again, someone will attack in this weather, and the guards are only perfunctory, hiding early to bake the fire and sleeping, and no one cares about the officials, after all, you have to understand that your subordinates are not.
Zou Yu and the outside of their bodies were all windproof coats wrapped in sheepskin, which were basically no different from the snow in the dark night, and if they didn't pay attention, they couldn't find anything moving there.
Sheltered Lookout Tower at the head of the city!
"Do you hear any movement?" One of the guards asked with a gentle touch on his companion.
"No, no!" The companion replied impatiently with his eyes closed.
The guards had no choice but to listen intently, but unfortunately there was wind in their ears, and there was no other sound.
"Woooooo As soon as the guards went out, they were covered by someone, and they looked at the countless white figures around them, climbing up to the top of the city, and screaming in fright.
"Click!" With a bang, Zhang Zhongjian twisted his neck, then gently put it aside and gestured behind him.
Those who had gone up to the top of the city immediately dispersed, and went down the wall to the sentry posts.
The two Fangzheng brothers led people down the city and went straight to the city gate, and Zou Yu soon heard a few muffled sounds below, as well as the sound of a child crying and immediately being covered by an adult.
"Ahh
"Signal!" Seeing that the city gate had been controlled, Zou Yu immediately ordered.
Immediately after that, three torches were lit, stretched out of the city, and kept circling.
Out of town! Han Qianxun's face was overjoyed, and he raised his hand and ordered: "Up!" ”
Hei Sumei took the warriors who couldn't wait for a long time, stepped on skis and walked towards the city.
Mid-mountain castle, that's not good, you can't ski in, the snow outside is too thick, you can only walk on skis, otherwise the snow that goes deep into your thighs, you can't move, which is why the guards don't worry about people.
In the city, it is much better, at least the roads are cleaned, which is also for the convenience of travel, after all, people need to live, and they always have to go out.
This is the case when each sweeps the snow in front of the door, just like the city in later generations, the implementation of three bags in front of the door, and now the same people are required to clear the snow on the road in front of their homes.
"Open the door!" Paying attention to the approaching figure outside the city, Zou Yu raised his hand and ordered in a deep voice.
There was a long "quack...", and the city gate slowly opened.
This sound was not small, and it came out all of a sudden, and torches began to light up in the distance, and someone should have come to check.
"Up!" Zhang Zhongjian and others had already cleaned up the city, and led people to prepare for the attack, and when they saw this situation, they immediately rushed over with people.
Han Qianxun had already inquired that Duovayue City was basically a fortress, not only built entirely of stone, but also basically inhabited by soldiers and family members, with very few ordinary people, all of whom were in charge of logistics, after all, there were not many places where there could be farming.
"Ahhh A few screams came, and the hand-to-hand combat inevitably happened.
"Kill!" Seeing Han Qianxun enter the city, the two Fangzheng brothers followed Zou Yu and killed them.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry!" Han Qianxun urged loudly.
The new fighters immediately kicked off their skis and rushed out with their weapons.
"Kill!" Hei Sumei screamed, carrying a pair of knives, and rushed with dozens of people.
Han Qianxun just shook his head slightly, smiled silently, and continued to command the people who entered the city to gather, and only one or two hundred people would be arranged out.
There were those who were culled along the city walls, and there were those who went to support, and one team after another, arranged in an orderly manner.
Here you can see the difference between Han Qianxun, who is worthy of being a great general, who cares more about the overall control, and does not command a swarm of charges, but gives different orders according to the priority of the situation.
