Chen Mu felt that there seemed to be something wrong, and asked him to go to Jinshanling to test the new cannon, he could understand.

The attaché cannot exceed six people, after all, the Beijing division is not as good as Guangdong, and it is nonsense to lead the soldiers and horses to run around, and he can understand it.

But so that he can't even count the squad army, what's the matter with the flag army stationed in Beijing?

This treatment seems to be a bit grand.

And the point is that the artillery was not all taken away, and thirty were left for him, which is strange.

"The general doesn't need to worry too much, the camp is chosen at will." After Wu Guifang returned to Beijing, Chen Mu and Wu Weizhong embarked on the road to Jinshanling of the Great Wall, Wu Weizhong was much more comfortable on this road, and said proudly to Chen Mu: "Since Tan Junmen led Jiliao, there are three battalions, and there are no autumn police in Jizhen and Changping, so there is no need to transfer Shaanxi, Hejian, and Zhengding in the autumn. ”

Wu Weizhong said with a smile: "The general came late, if he came last year, His Majesty would have personally paraded the army, and 100,000 Beijing troops would cover the sky with flags, and that kind of scene would not be seen in ordinary times." ”

Chen Mu frowned on the horse, "Your Majesty parades the army?" ”

"The general doesn't know? In the past, the Beijing camp was inspected by the celebrant eunuch for less than three years, and last year His Majesty decided to read it in person, and it will be customized in the future. ”

Emperor Longqing, this emperor who is not impressive actually likes military parades, which surprised Chen Mu, and then listened to Wu Weizhong: "The generals of the three battalions are very domineering, General Chen, your soldiers look much better than the Beijing battalion, I am afraid they will blame you." ”

"The general gave me armor, Lao Wu is very poor, and there is nothing to give back to the general." Chen Mu's cuirass has been taken off, and it is lining Wu Weizhong's red armor, and he smiled and said: "And I also have a good word from the general: when the subordinates report the location of the camp, be sure to inform the deputy general to patrol the camp day and night, and be optimistic about the artillery." ”

Wu Weizhong's eyes widened, and even the forehead lines on his forehead were revealed, and he looked at Chen Mu and said, "Don't let the cannon explode in the camp." ”

"Thank you Brother Wu, how can the cannon go off, they are all old-" Chen Mu smiled a little perfunctorily, and suddenly a smile was fixed on his face, "Brother Wu is saying that someone else will come to Chen's camp to harm me?" ”

"The general is at ease, it may not be real, but it is just a little more guarded."

This time, Chen Mu was cautious, and immediately bowed to Wu Weizhong, and said, "Thank you Brother Wu for your warning." ”

There are 100,000 in Jingying, who knows if they will meet a mongrel who is bent on making a bad heart, once this kind of thing happens, there is no room for remorse, what makes Chen Mu wonder is that the sergeant of Jingying is already bored and naïve to this point?

"I don't know what Dutang said, I wanted to go to the official office due to illness this year, but why is I still in the court?"

"Fighting." Wu Weizhong looked at Chen Mu with a smile in his eyes, and he was happy to answer this question: "In February, the Tumut Department replied that it was unusual, attacking Datong, Xuanfu, and Shanxi in the spring, crossing the Great Wall, and being blocked by Tan Junmen's construction of the two Great Walls of Jundu Mountain, and it was only a month after retiring from the army. ”

Chen Mu looked at the farmers who were resting after working on the side of the road with some surprise, the endless wheat fields did not have the slightest intention of being attacked, and only when he heard it did he understand that it was blocked.

"There is no shortage of good defenders in the northern army, but there are few generals who are good at fighting, and at this time, the general led his troops to the north, which is a good time to make contributions." Wu Weizhong said and said with a sneer: "This is the meaning of the military department, and Tan Junmen is another meaning." ”

"The method of deciding victory and defeat between breath is suitable for the South; The method of pinning down the invading enemy is suitable for the north. ”

Tan Lun's words are insightful.

Due north of Beijing, a hundred miles away from the Miyun area, is Qi Jiguang's newly built Jinshanling, Gubeikou, and the Great Wall, in this era is the northern border of the Ming Dynasty.

When the national strength is strong, it is a diligent move for the capital to defend the country, and once the national strength is weakened, and then encounters an impulsive commander, according to Tan Lun's mouth of the southern military tactics, the decisive battle is in an instant, and he can't afford to lose once.

"The specific military situation, Wu is soft-spoken, and he doesn't know much, and he will bring his own senior officials to make it clear to the general in the future. In short, when the troops are used uprightly, the general may not be able to return to Guangdong for a while. ”

Chen Mu was silent for a long time before sighing and saying, "Chen is here to take the martial arts exam." ”

In fact, he was relieved.

Fortunately, he didn't hide it when he came, thinking that if he had the opportunity to let the princes of the imperial court see the results of his training of soldiers and horses, he also had a little vanity, so he sent half of the elite of Xiangshan to the north, which was really too cheap to bring thousands of people to the old, weak, sick and disabled.

But I didn't expect to unintentionally insert willows, but helped myself.

Without the Five Hundred Fragrance Mountain Banner Army, Wu Guifang probably wouldn't have left him behind.

"Huh...... It's okay. ”

Chen Mu had some guesses in his heart, he guessed that Wu Guifang might have come over to see the soldiers he brought, but there was no need to talk about this kind of thing with others.

He tried to teach Hachiro to keep his mouth shut, but why not to himself?

Resting in the suburbs of Beijing for a night, he hurried along the way until the third day, seventy artillery pieces were escorted to Jinshanling, and Chen Mu also got his wish to see what the real tower building madman was.

Jinshanling section of the Great Wall is only 20 miles to count the bend, set up five passes and three beacons, the enemy Taiwan as many as 67, 50 to 100 steps must have the enemy platform, this section of the mobilization of the Ming Dynasty skilled craftsmen to build the Great Wall enemy platform brings together almost all the architectural characteristics of the Ming Dynasty in this era.

It was the height of summer, thousands of trees and onions, and the clouds and mist were ethereal.

The Great Wall built on the mountain and based on the boulder has various enemy structures, including masonry, brick and wood, and single and double layers; The piers are square, flat, round, and partial, and the roof of the building has a canopy, a vault, four corners and an octagonal drill sky; The fortresses of Chengguan are dotted around, and the barrier walls, battlement walls, battle platforms, forts, lookouts, thunder stone holes, perforations, horse retaining walls, support walls, and siege walls are fortified layer by layer.

It is not only a solid defense system in northern Xinjiang, but also a shocking art.

"Qi Shuai is in Wangjing Tower, General Chen, let's go over."

Chen Mu thought that he would be able to see Qi Jiguang as soon as he arrived at the edge of the Great Wall, and demonstrated to him the long-planned artillery technique, using his housekeeping skills to make this hero

It was an eye-opener, but he didn't expect things to turn out completely according to his expectations.

He was going to climb the mountain first.

When Chen Mu asked where Wangjing Tower was, Wu Weizhong, who was holding the battlements, just raised his hand and pointed into the distance, and Chen Mu understood why it was called Wangjing Tower.

At the eastern end of the Jinshanling Great Wall, there are high mountains rising up into the clouds, if the Jinshanling Great Wall is compared to the body of a great dragon, there is undoubtedly the dragon's head that rushes into the sky for nine days, and people say that the outline of the capital can be seen in that place.

The soldiers guarding Beijing along the city road did not squint, strictly guarding their posts, like a group of wooden people, although their armor was really backward in Chen Mu's opinion, their morale and discipline were eye-catching, which made him tired and have the motivation to climb the Wangjing Tower.

Where you stand and have a panoramic view of the Jinshanling Great Wall, you will feel a sense of accomplishment!
