Lazikou is located in Lazi Township in the northeast of Diebe County. It is more than 200 miles away from Diebe County in the west. It is more than 140 miles away from Minxian County in the north. Lazikou is the only passage from northwest Sichuan to Gansu. It is the "throat" of the Gamcheon Ancient Road, and the entire pass is about 30 meters long. It is only 8 meters wide. On both sides are the steep cliffs of Baizhang. It is surrounded by lofty mountains. When I looked up, I saw a glimmer of blue sky. The fast-flowing Lazi River crosses the pass from north to south. The terrain is very precarious. Easy to defend and difficult to attack. Since ancient times, it has been known as "natural risk".

Lazi Tibetan Boba language means "mountain ridge". Lazikou is located in the "Diebu" county. The Tibetan word means "thumb". A god named Negandawa passed by. The way is blocked by dense rocks. He stretched out his thumb and pressed it gently. Suddenly. Cracking of mountain rocks. World shaking. A long passage is revealed. This myth and legend. It confirms the geology, landform and environment of the Diebu area. It was formed by the uplift of Hercules through the movement of the earth's crust.

Liu Jintang led two battalions of cavalry on a rapid march. The pawn is divided into two ways. Along the way, Yu Enhu led a battalion of soldiers and horses to Minzhou. Strengthen the defense of the capital city of Minzhou. On the other hand, Liu Jintang personally led a battalion of soldiers and horses. Go straight to Lazikou.

On the way to Lazikou. There are two fortresses of the Qing army. Liu Jintang took a look at the facilities. Think of this fortress as vulnerable. Let the more than 60 Qing soldiers guarding the fortress. Abandonment of positions. Follow behind the troops. Go straight to Lazikou.

Captain guarding the fort. I heard that there was going to be a war. Very happy to get out of dangerous places. I don't wait for orders from my superiors. Anyway, Liu Jintang's official hat is big enough. Unconditional obedience to military orders. More than sixty Qing troops voluntarily abandoned the two positions. Follow the Hunan army into Lazikou.

The ridges on both sides of Lazikou are about 500 meters high. Steep hills and dense woods growing in between. Even rock sheep who are good at walking mountain roads have difficulty walking. The Qing army is 30 meters long. A blockhouse was built next to a wooden bridge in the 8-meter-wide opening. It's hard to get close to the opening. Not to mention the entrance.

Liu Jintang led more than 300 Hunan troops and some regimental training teams recruited by Diebe County. The team has more than 1,000 people. Coming to Lazikou's natural insurance. I saw a sheep intestine trail passing through the sky. Under the rugged mountain cliff, it extends to the iron ruler beam with an altitude of more than 3,000 meters from Lazikou. The rock on the left side of Lazikou allows people to look up to see the top of it. This rock rises in the sky. and as steady as Mount Tai. It resembles a statue of a beast. And on the right. From the bottom of the valley to the cliffs 30 to 40 meters high, there are 'bare' and 'exposed' rocks. Huge rock face. Not a bumpy depression of water erosion. It's the thick texture of the rock itself. The mountain rock as a whole looks like a camel.

Legend has it back in ancient times. There is a bear drinking water. A huge camel came over. The bear rises from the ground. I want to see what exactly is qualified. Time flies by. Later they were all fossilized. It was carved by the miracles of nature. It is also moistened by the sun, rain, 'dew', etc. It was conceived by the surging waters of the Lazi River.

Enter Lazikou. Liu Jintang breathed a long sigh of relief. Amazing natural hazards. Already trampled underfoot. The next step is to catch the remnants of the Elder Brotherhood in the Qing army.

Dong Fuxiang is next to Liu Jintang. Dong Fuxiang's Dong Zi Three Battalions. Subordinate to the old Hunan army. Now he is under the orders of Liu Jintang. Don't look at Liu Jintang's product order for the state. From the rank of six ranks. But he was respected in the old Hunan army. Except for Liu Songshan, everyone else commanded the eighteenth battalion of the Hunan Army (expanded during the war). Therefore, the warlords everywhere also obeyed the command of the imperial court.

Dong Fuxiang is in his thirties. Huge build. A square face with a Chinese character. Dan Feng Eye. Lion's nose. There is a big beard. It looks just right. Born with a general demeanor. Glancing at him, he said, "Liu Zhoutong. Do you want to capture all the defenders?"

Liu Jintang shook his head slightly and said, "No. So everyone is at risk. The group exercises that came with us also included members of the Brotherhood. This battle can't be fought. Most of the people who join the Church of the Brothers. Just want to live a little better. Go around the place. It is convenient to do partial 'door' business. Announcing an exemption order. All members of the Presbyterian Church are not guilty of the past. Everyone is dedicated to their duties. Guard the mouth of Lazi for me. There are great rewards."

Dong Fuxiang was greatly impressed by Liu Jintang's bright and upright actions. Hugging his fists, he said, "Yes. Subordinates understand."

Soon the first wartime order was given. It turned out to be exempt from all the members of the Columbia who were hiding in the army. This made the officers and soldiers present have all kinds of tastes. Many people looked at Liu Jintang with strange eyes. Liu Jintang's clear eyes. Let those who have ill intentions. They all bowed their heads. Some people are born leaders. Liu Jintang is such a leader. A pre-war mobilization order. It makes people have the consciousness that the person who is a confidant dies. Members of the Brotherhood who hide in the army and regimental training teams. I don't know how to deal with the generous Liu Jintang. It can only be used as an excuse for soldiers to obey military orders as their duty. and the history of the past.

Liu Jintang has just finished training a battalion of troops in Lazikou. Pacify the hearts and minds of the local garrison. The first silver bounty was issued. Let the officers and soldiers and militia groups present feel 'excited' and cry. The arming order has not yet been issued. Tanmalay Newspaper. There is a rebel army entering Diebe County. It is 200 miles away from Lazikou.

Liu Jintang gasped. Fortunately, he and Yu Enhu led the army to rush over. One step later. The defense of the capital city of Minzhou and Lazikou. There will be a lot of holes. A member of the Brotherhood who is hiding in the defenders of Lazikou. will launch a surprise attack. Capture this strategic location.

Dong Fuxiang is a good hand at fighting. Pull out the revolver with a snort. shouted: "Liu Zhoutong. Let me lead a sentry. Outside the mouth of the canyon will be Lei Heng. Test the enemy's reality."

Liu Jintang's forehead was bruised. shouted: "Show the flag. Let's see who dares to fight the Hunan army."

"Ordered." Dong Fuxiang turned and left. Led more than 100 Hui troops. Rush out of the Lazikou Pass. The banner with red letters on a blue background. Represents the power of a race. No Hunan is not an army. The most powerful Hunan army in the world. Gas-covered mountains and rivers.

Watch the brocade banner rush out of the mouth of the canyon. The morale of the hundreds of Qing soldiers guarding the pass was greatly boosted. There are Hunan troops who dare to fight and dare to fight here. Lazikou is solid.

Liu Jintang is a veteran. Soon lay out the defense line of Lazikou. Baskets of grenades are stacked at the mouth of the valley. Ten 'doors' of howitzers are mounted on high posts. The muzzle of the black 'hole' 'hole'. Straight below the mouth of the canyon.

The former Lazikou camp official Qin can. He was ashamed to say: "Liu Zhoutong can rest assured. There's me here. The rebels can't fly."

Liu Jintang said kind words to reassure: "Hmm. QIN Yingguan. I believe in your abilities. I hope you will do your part. Hold the pass. I don't need to say much about the military regulations of the Chu army. The motto of the Hunan army is that people are in the position."

Qin Can secretly rejoiced. Almost killed by his men. Five sentinels inside. There must be members of the Presbyterian Church. Although Liu Jintang said that he was not to blame in the past. But he won't bear to say anything in this tone. Wait for this hurdle. Settle accounts after the fall. Put these black sheep. All dismissed.

"People are in the position." The slogan of the mountain and the tsunami. Reverberated in the canyon. That's a momentum. Indomitable momentum. As long as there is a Hunan army here. The king of heaven and Lao Tzu also regretted not moving his position.

The defenders stationed at Lazikou and the members of the regimental training muttered to themselves." People are in the position." Hold on to the last moment of your life. At this moment, they are already a member of the Hunan army. For this blood-stained flag. They will fight to the end. The Brotherhood is a thing of the past. The big husband is informal. They were all brave Qing warriors.

The two sentinels spied each other's eyes. They are the elder brothers. Originally, he said that he would lead the team to revolt. But now the team structure has been broken up. And Liu Jintang is not guilty of their past. This left them a little at a loss. I want to talk about it. You can open your mouth. But there is no way to talk about it. Pat each other on the shoulder. said: "Take care. People are in the position."

Liu Jintang is not guilty of the past for the members of the Brotherhood. It also broke up the Qing army that was originally stationed in Lazikou. These two moves are combined. Let the members of the Brotherhood who are like iron hearts also have 'hair' in their hearts, even if they want to rebel. I don't know what my subordinates think. Lift each other up. Finally, give up the 'desire' of rebellion. Honestly stationed at their respective posts.

Liu Jintang looked at the hundred-foot-high cliffs on both sides. The natural risk is steep though. But it's not an insurmountable chasm. The hanging coffins of the Qiang people in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River are placed on the steep cliffs. The rebel Lei Heng's department is the Sichuan army. There will be Qiang children inside. Liu Jintang had a trace of worry in his heart. If you give the enemy to climb a steep cliff. Throw a grenade from above. The Qing army could only be slaughtered. All were blown up.

Liu Jintang pointed to the cliff above the position. said: "Reward the warriors who can climb the cliffs. I'm asking for a team of men to be stationed on this. We must not allow the enemy to climb over our heads."

Qin Can was shocked: "Liu Zhoutong. Is this necessary?"

Liu Jintang nodded and said, "Qin Yingguan. The more natural it is. The greater the risk. The cliff above. It is the 'door' of our life, the hanging coffin of the Qiang people. Have you forgotten. Lei Hengke is a native of Sichuan. Intrinsic hidden dangers should be eliminated. Outward evils must also be stopped. The reward is five hundred taels of silver. There are capable people in the militia group."

Liu Jintang said five hundred taels of silver. Even the Goshha beside him listened to it and jumped to 'want' to try. Look up at the steep cliff face that is hundreds of feet high.

A Qin jar of Goshha. Timidly spoke: "Qin Yingguan. I can give it a try."

"You." Qin Can was surprised to see that this black and short Goshha still had this ability. Asked: "Little seedling. Can you do it?"

Xiao Miaozi 'stiffened' his chest and his dark face 'revealed' a smile: "Qin Yingguan. The subordinates are Miao people. Bird's nest picking on the cliff wall in the past. As long as there are gaps. Even steep cliffs can be climbed. But you have to build a good blade. Let the blacksmith open the furnace and forge hooks and nails."

"Good little seedling. Climb up. This officer promoted you to be a team officer." Qin Can was very happy. This is his personal entourage. Such people deserve to be promoted. I admire Liu Jintang so much. Good commander. Think about the war. The two leakage holes inside and outside the mouth of Lazi have been blocked.

There will be brave men under the reward. Soon more than 30 short but powerful men were selected from the team. Several long ropes are prepared. The little seedling carries a long rope on his back. Holding a bamboo pole with a hook. From a rocky mountain stream. Climb to the top of a cliff 100 feet high.
