Chapter 197: On Shaohua Mountain
Shaohua Mountain is steep and majestic, the peak is full of shrubs, the pines and cypresses are skyscraper, the white clouds are swirling, and the strange stones stand up.
Standing in front of a cliff, Lu Ning looked at the outline of Huazhou City from afar, speaking of which, as the front line of the confrontation between Qi and Qin, Huazhou has been extremely strict in recent years, except for the farmers who cultivate the land in the west of the city, it is from the western Qindi, and there are no businessmen and other idle people, etc., the people from the Qin land not only have a road guide, but also are official acts, such as transporting some commercial goods and materials into Huazhou, which is also an official businessman.
Therefore, in Huazhou City, it was not possible to insert the inner line of the secret prison, after all, the detailed work of the secret prison is not so professional.
The pretty woman standing quietly beside Lu Ning will be the flower of the fold.
Attacking the northwest, and originally wanted to solve the problem of the party members, of course the virtuous concubine had to come, because the Fuzhou Zhijia army was separated by the four states of Xia and Yin, which were occupied by the party members, and became an enclave outside the Central Plains.
Fortunately, although it was originally said that it would be good for Concubine Xian to go to the river in September, but because the Red Tiger Army had nothing to worry about, Mi Zhu took training to be, so Concubine Xian left for the river in advance, Lu Ning arrived the day before yesterday, and Concubine Xian arrived this morning, and it happened that Lu Ning was going to climb Shaohua Mountain, so she came together, Lu Ning wanted her to rest, she only said no.
He was followed by several generals, including Lu Qing, the commander of the front of the palace, Lu Ding, the commander of the Great Perak Battalion, Fan Yanzhao, the commander of the second battalion of Jumu, and Tian Qinzuo, the commander of the reserve battalion.
After Lu Ping was appointed as the envoy of the Beijing Garrison Battalion, Lu Qing was promoted to the commander of the guards in front of the palace, and Hu Yan agreed to sit in the military village as the first commander and deputy envoy in front of the palace, and did not come with Lu Ning to inspect the enemy.
The guards were stationed at the city of Huazhou [Pencil www.qbxs.xyz], but the emperor did not order the artillery to attack the city, nor did he order the reserve soldiers to dig the tunnels.
Today, he brought the artillery battalion commander Lu Ding and the reserve battalion commander Tian Qinzuo to Shaohua Mountain, and the generals were a little puzzled, but the emperor has always been correct, and he followed the emperor's blood and fire, and the generals did not have the slightest doubt in their hearts.
Lu Ning beckoned to Tian Qinzuo at this time, and said with a smile: "Aren't you all waiting?!" β
Tian Qinzuo grinned, "Naturally, they all want to go into battle to kill the enemy." β
The thousand-man reserve battalion not only undertakes heavy tasks, but also has the role of technical troops, such as the head car improved by Lu Ning and the craftsmen for the guards and pro-army, which is controlled by the reserve soldiers.
The head car, originally just digging tunnels and hiding soldiers to siege the city, the control is cumbersome, hollow hiding soldiers, digging soil in front, and the roof of the shed supports the hole, with the progress of the excavation, the head car will continue to advance, and then, the last section of the car shed will also be lengthened. The excavated earth can also be brought out by means of a winch attached to the rear of the car and moved to fill the trench, and the crew of a group of head cars is about 30 people.
Nowadays, the main role of the head car has been changed to excavate tunnels.
Combined with the siege method of the cave in later generations, the tunnel was dug by the head car and used to blow down the city wall.
Although the bronze and iron cannons of the Great Perak Camp are only solid bullets, they cooperate with the cave siege method to bombard the city wall that has been hollowed out underground and blasted with gunpowder, and it is believed that there are not many strong cities that can stop it.
In fact, the Mongols broke Fancheng and Xiangyang, but also transferred the so-called return artillery, just a kind of improved trebuchet, so that the city was broken, although there are many reasons why Xiangyang and Fancheng were broken in the end, but the advantage of ordnance is definitely a very important factor, but the Central Plains history books, has always paid not enough attention to this kind of records, and the historical records are more about people than things.
The same is true of the reserve camp, which seems to be inconspicuous, and even has to undertake miscellaneous work such as heavy men and men, which is the important ministers of the temple, and the reserve camp of the emperor's guards and pro-army is only regarded as a team of people.
But Lu Ning attaches great importance to the reserve battalion, such as the reserve soldier who controls the head car, which is completely the current technical branch.
After the expansion of the reserve battalion commander, Lu Ning also thought left and right for a long time, and finally selected Tian Qinzuo.
Because Tian Qinzuo is a treacherous and changeable person, he is indeed a good hand if he uses it well, and if he is not used well, he will become a treacherous and greedy villain criticized by literati as in history.
The reserve camp has a lot of technical work, and it also needs a flexible general like Tian Qinzuo to command.
Moreover, if he is transferred to the guard army, there will be no chance to be greedy for military salaries, of course, people are constantly changing, and it is not necessary to guard against Tian Qinzuo as a thief now.
Looking at Huazhou City in the distance, Lu Ning smiled and said: "I hope that Zhao Kuangyin will come here to fight a decisive battle with me, and the battle will be decided, not to mention that the Hezhong Army also needs time to recruit people." β
Tian Qinzuo smiled and nodded, he wouldn't say much, the few generals present were all cronies and generals who had followed the Holy Son of Heaven in the southern and northern wars for many years, and he had the least qualifications, so it was naturally better to talk less.
Lu Ning looked at Lu Qing and said with a smile: "I heard that you have been obsessed with divine fire recently, and you don't practice archery anymore?" β
Among the original Taibao, Lu Qing was the most handsome, with red lips and white teeth, and a divine shot, which reminded Lu Ning of Yan Qing, Huarong, etc. in folk tales, so Lu Ning gave him a name back then, and also gave him a nice name.
Lu Qing is also very smart, in the 14th Taibao, including Hu Yanzan, Lu Ping, Lu Xing and Lu Qing have some commanders' talents, and now Lu Ping and Lu Xing have been released to be the envoys of the big battalion, and Lu Qing, the former commander of the palace, is also a certainty.
Listening to Lu Ning's words, Lu Qing's heart jumped, and he hurriedly bowed down and said: "The little slave just saw that the divine fire was wonderful, and he played for a few more days, how could he waste his martial arts?" The Lord is wise! β
Lu Ning was a little helpless, Lu Qing, Lu Ping, and Lu Xing are now all commanders in charge alone, from the second rank, but in front of themselves, they have always regarded themselves as slaves.
Of course, from the perspective of the three of them, isn't this a kind of glory that distinguishes other civil ministers and military generals, and seems to be different from the relatives of the Holy Son of Heaven?
"I heard that you were going to get married, and the best date has been set?" Lu Ning asked him with a smile.
Lu Qing is the youngest in the Zhu Taibao, he followed Lu Ning when he was a teenager, and his concubine had already had two rooms, but he never married a wife.
I don't know how many high-ranking officials and nobles in the capital have sent people to propose marriage, but Lu Qing politely refused.
But it turned out that when Lu Qing was in the East China Sea, he had a sweetheart, who was the concubine of his deceased father, and when he took refuge in the East China Sea, he killed the enemy family who killed his family, and he died in the East China Sea and threw himself into the East China Sea.
His deceased husband and concubine were about the same age as Lu Qing, and they were later found by Lu Qing, and they went to be a female crown for two years, that is, a female Taoist priest.
Of course, the age is long, in fact, what is the relationship between Lu Qing's fiancΓ©e and Lu Qing is rarely known to the outside world, but as a second-grade member, if his wife's background and secret supervision can't be investigated, then there is no need to exist.
Lu Qing was a little frightened, his face was a little weird, he naturally knew that the identity of the future lady could be hidden from others, but he definitely couldn't hide it from the Son of Heaven.
Lu Ning smiled and said: "In this way, you can write a letter to someone to pick her up in the river, and if everything goes well, I will marry you both in Chengdu Mansion!" β
Lu Qing was stunned, and immediately overjoyed, if he said, he was still worried that there were insiders pointing fingers behind his back, but after the marriage of the Holy Son of Heaven, those gossips, if you don't hold back, you will wait for trouble.
Kneeling down on one knee, Lu Qing choked up a little, "Master, how dare you be a little slave?!" β
The rest of the generals listened to different points, and their hearts were all the same, the Holy Son of Heaven wanted to marry Lu Diansi in Chengdu Mansion, and the deep meaning of these words was self-evident.
