On the twenty-sixth day of May of the eighth year of Germany, Yunting Mountain.

The mountains are lush and green, and more than a dozen peaks are gathered in one place, leaving many martyrs' loyal souls here.

"A broken mountain, throwing tens of thousands of lives, and almost blocking the route of reinforcements, he Nana, this revenge is not a gentleman."

For many days, Zhang Yunlong had memorized the terrain here, and he was closing his eyes to recuperate, deducing a war of annihilation in his heart. Xindao: Two rabbit cubs, if the old man doesn't bury you in Yunting Mountain, I will live in vain at my age.

After thinking for a long time, he smiled, stood up, opened the door curtain, and came to the military tent, just as he saw Tang Yuan fiddling with a small flag on the sand table, next to him was the male Jia Nalan Xin, Nalan Xin's kid looked shrewd, he was a military adviser to Tang Yuan, and it was said that he also had a cavalry team that was particularly capable of fighting, and that team was also Tang Yuan's treasure, and he was usually reluctant to use it, so he was specially given as a general guard and a raid cavalry.

"What are you studying?" Zhang Yunlong walked over with his hands behind his back, although the old general was seventy-one years old, he was tall, slightly hunchbacked, and not shorter than Tang Yuan, on the contrary, the more vicissitudes of life he was, the more he gave people a sense of unshakable majesty. Not angry and self-assured, even smiling with majesty.

"I don't want to defend it anymore." Tang Yuan dropped the small flag in his hand.

"I don't want to." Zhang Yunlong patted Tang Yuan's shoulder, then looked at Tang Yuan's deduction arrangement carefully, shook his head and said, "It's too expensive for you to fight like this, it's not suitable." If you want me to say, let's defend first and then fight. Come, let's go outside. ”

Coming to the outside of the tent, Zhang Yunlong looked around the mountain, pointed to the top of the main peak of Yunting Mountain and said: "I estimate that the two Taibao don't have much food in their hands, I think they will definitely rush down, let's lie in ambush at the bottom of the mountain, there are five roads down the mountain, one is a big road, and the others are small roads." ”

Tang Yuan recalled the sand table in his mind, and said: "Han Dang, Huang Ying, and Ma Ben are in charge of the west one, two, and three, and I will lead the troops to the east road, and Zhang Shuai will be in charge of the main road." ”

Zhang Yunlong smiled: "You kid has a little conscience. ”

Zhang Yunlong knew in his heart that Tang Yuan arranged the greatest military exploits for himself, and others could not say anything, although the army said that they were united, but when it came to military exploits, they were full of human feelings and sophistication. Tang Yuan himself was responsible for the defense of the two roads, and others couldn't say anything wrong, because he had the most soldiers at this time, and he ran all the way back, giving up supporting Lin Chongyang's great military exploits, and others were even more speechless.

At the same time, it can also let Ma Ben mix some military achievements, Zhang Yunlong squinted at Ma Ben, he is not very old, full of spirit, and his nickname in the army is Xiao Ma Chao, which is worthy of his name.

At this time, the 7,000 soldiers who damaged Tang Yuan, Zhang Yunlong's soldiers were only 12,000 in total, and some of them returned from injury and illness one after another, but only 13,000.

Zhang Yunlong frowned, "Zhang Zhikui shouldn't give up his command, now that he is going and returning, I don't know if Ju Wuming will hand over the military power to him again." ”

"Could it be that Zhang Zhikui and the emperor ......" Tang Yuan asked in a low voice, asking halfway.

Zhang Yunlong waved his hand and said in a low voice: "Don't ask around, I should let you know, sooner or later." ”

Turning his head around, Zhang Yunlong smiled bitterly:

"It's just that it's still unclear how much grain the two Taibao have in their hands, so I can't pinch their determination to break through or rob the grain road, they have been out of grain for more than half a month, can it be said that they have a longer reserve in this mountain?"

Tang Yuan smiled bitterly and was silent.

Zhang Yunlong continued: "What makes me even more puzzling is that there is no mountain spring on Yunting Mountain, and they don't fight for water, don't they drink water?" ”

These things that break the common sense of war appeared, and the old commander also felt scratching his head, which had never been heard of before.

"They came here before we did, and they may have stockpiled a lot of food and water. After all, it's not far from the water source. Tang Yuan said.

Zhang Yunlong shook his head: "I really don't understand how they did it, after taking this mountain, I must visit it, if it is a good way, you will learn it will be useful in the future." ”

Tang Yuan said with a smile: "This time I have learned a lot of new things from fighting with the two Taibao, such as fire and thunder. I don't think they have made good use of this thing, I just smeared a little pine oil on it, which can double its power, especially when it is used to burn the city, and the result is twice the result with half the effort. I don't know the recipe for this thing yet, so I'll have to ask them if I catch them in the future. ”

"There are many kinds of fire mines, what is so wonderful about their fire mines?"

Tang Yuan said: "The explosive power is amazing. ”

Hearing this, Zhang Yunlong nodded, waved his hand, and asked Secretary Lang to call the generals, and he was ready to hold a meeting.

——

Xingzhou, Xingcheng Kandong, towering mountain, this place is called Dart Ridge, it seems that the cliffs are connected, there is almost no road that can be passed, feel and climb, can be regarded as climbing to the top of the mountain.

Looking around, a burst of despair rushed into the hearts of the mountaineers, and Zhang Pan scolded: "What about him." ”

Zhang Pan and Li Liang went all the way east, crossed the mountains and mountains to bypass Xingcheng Pass, and when they came to the Fushui River, they looked even more depressed than the name of the river.

"I can't get by." Zhang Pan gritted his teeth and said hatefully: "I can only continue to climb the mountain, it is estimated that if I climb seven or eight more of them, you will always see the shallows, let's go along the shallows, and we will be able to reach Dingjun Mountain in five days." ”

Li Liang is fat and has no horses, so he walks very hard. At first, he came on horseback, but halfway through, the horse really couldn't pass, and then Zhang Pan sent twenty people to bring hundreds of horses back to Fengzhou, and the whole team of 6,000 people were all infantry. They are all ironclad infantry, which is a good thing, but the heavy ironclad brings a greater burden to the march.

Many soldiers who were slightly weaker or had some minor injuries could not survive, so they lay in the vast mountains forever.

On this day, when they finally reached the shallows, they rushed to the river, jumped into the water excitedly, rested a little, and continued on their way.

"In front is the Baijiao Pass in Xixian County, and after the completion of Dingjun Mountain, it has become a decoration." Zhang Pan said, pointing to an abandoned pass ahead. "This is still the arm of our eldest brother Lin Chongyang, when the first emperor was there, he often praised it."

Li Liang rubbed his bald head and said, "I think this move is inappropriate." ”

"How?"

"If we don't change the defensive ground, we will be here now, and we will have to walk dozens of miles, oops, I really can't walk, where can I get a horse?" Li Liang stared at the big eyes and looked around, now even if he could find a donkey, he was willing to ride it. Anyway, I don't want to walk.

When Lin Chongyang heard the news of the seizure of Widow's Mountain, he looked as if he had suddenly aged ten years.
