Chapter 691: The Eve of the Great Change

Yichuan Ferry, the simple workshop where Lu Shi lived, at midnight, a lamp like a bean, reflected on the simple belongings in the house, illuminating Chunlan's face that has become more and more clean due to hard work, however, one hand is on the cheeks, and the other hand is gently rubbing a letter on the table, Chunlan, who is contemplative of the lamp, has a deep smile and a layer of happiness in the corners of her mouth and eyes.

Looking up, in the simple room, on every household and every object, it seems that the figure of the fourth brother of Lu Shi can be seen, and in the flickering light, it seems that Lu Shi's faint and calm smile, that affectionate eyes, and that handsome but thin figure can be seen at any time.

Here, I can feel the presence of the fourth brother at any time and feel his warmth at any time. Therefore, Chunlan did not regret her decision to oversee Ji County, and did not regret her refusal to let Erlang let her be stationed in a safer fortress, but chose this humble workshop where Brother Lu Shi once lived, although - after this decision was known by Brother Lu Shi, he specially sent a messenger - San Lang to send a letter full of blame, but it was this letter full of blame, between the lines, so that he could feel Brother Lu Shi's deep affection for him all the time, and worry about himself, Take care of your own thoughts.

That's enough, it's more important than anything else.

At the beginning of the battle in Ji County, the fourth brother was leading troops in Weinan, which was the key in the key, and he really couldn't let go or relax, so he stepped forward and rushed to Ji County to supervise the war without the consent of the fourth brother.

In fact, I also know that when I came to Guangwu, I couldn't do anything except give him spiritual support, and maybe I had to add a lot of trouble to Guangwu, but I had to come, if nothing else, I was doing a little bit for my fourth brother and sharing a little burden.

As he expected, when Guangwu saw his arrival, he hurriedly went to the house and went to Jixian County to supervise the battle, and pressed himself to the west bank of the Yellow River without giving an inch.

The battle has been going on for nearly ten days, these ten days are ten days of blood and fire and death, every day on the other side of the Yellow River, the drums and horns are in the sky, and the shouts and screams can be clearly heard here, standing outside the command post where the fourth brother once commanded the construction of the ferry, you can have an unobstructed view of the battlefield opposite.

Tragic, still tragic, looking at the overwhelming poles, wearing tattered clothes, holding all kinds of "weapons" carrying the simple ladders, the tide rushed to the city wall of Jixian again and again, Chunlan had a thrilling feeling, this is the first time to see such a tragic battlefield battle, this is actually very tragic than the original Yanchuan breakthrough.

Ji County under the attack of more than 100,000 horses, but under the command of Guangwu, as steady as a rock, artillery bows and arrows, overwhelming, occasionally in this sky-high reverberation, there are one or two huge explosions of explosives packs, and one or two billowing black smoke rises in the sea of people, that is a place of crisis, the killer weapon used by the army, as long as the explosives bag is dropped, it is a sea of blood, a hell on earth. However, the holes in the sea of people that were blown out by the explosives package will be filled again in the blink of an eye, and so on and so on.

Chunlan saw Gao Yingxiang's deadly series of ten-day attacks, and was already deeply shocked by Gao Yingxiang's surprising toughness.

Chunlan, who was also born with a pole, has also followed her brother to fight for many years, and has come to Lu Shi's side, and she is constantly conquest, she deeply knows the combat effectiveness and tactical methods of the pole, a pole, no matter how big the fat is facing, as long as it is one day, at most two days, as long as it can't be successful, it must be roaring away.

There are no other reasons, one is that the pole reserves are limited, whether it is manpower equipment or food supply, it cannot last for many days, and second, it is necessary to worry about the encirclement and suppression of reinforcements by the official army and the endless rural warriors in various places, and the most important thing is that most of the components of the pole are coerced by the people, and it is okay to fight a good fight, but once it is trapped in a fortified city, the morale will disappear immediately, and the pole will collapse instantly.

And this time Gao Yingxiang attacked uncharacteristically for ten days, and the casualties have reached an astonishing thirty or fifty thousand, but he still fights to the death, especially when the two sides are in full swing, there is always a team that is definitely Gao Yingxiang's elite men and horses, regardless of the danger of the enemy on his back, countless times want to forcibly cross the river and kill the west bank, although in front of the fort fortress designed by Erlang always abandon a large number of corpses in vain, but that kind of tenacity makes Chunlan admire, surprised at the same time, but also feels Gao Yingxiang's determination to win according to the terrain, and that kind of greed.

It is my mission to defend Ji County and to keep the base area that Brother Lu Shi and his brothers have worked so hard to create from being destroyed and ruined.

The day's war is over again, but tomorrow's battle will begin, there are still many things to do, and there are many materials and ordnance are also dispatched and transported back and forth, although Li Chunhou has outstanding ability and orderly scheduling operations, but there are too many things, and one person can't be busy no matter what, so Chunlan plays a huge role here. After all, she is already recognized by everyone as the main mother, ma'am.

Taking advantage of the pause in the night battle, Chunlan took advantage of the gap between obtaining another batch of ordnance and gunpowder for Guangwu in Jixian County, Chunlan sat down and thought about her own thoughts.

But at this time, as soon as the cotton curtain was lifted, his intimate sister, who was also his own herald, walked in lightly, and saw that Chunlan was still smirking at the lamp, and couldn't help but sigh, it seems that his sister Chunlan is starting to miss that person again. Yes, who meets such a good person and who faints unhappily? Even the pro-soldiers around Chunlan like herself felt infinitely happy, and secretly longed for laughter, because, according to the rules at this time, a pro-soldier like herself, with the marriage of the main mother to King Chuang, that is--Thinking of this, his face was as hot as coals, and his heart couldn't help beating wildly.

However, there are many good things, years of war, or such and such sudden events, which make the marriage between King Chuang and Chunlan delay again and again, how can this not make people anxious?

Thinking of this, these female soldiers hated Gao Yingxiang's itchy teeth, they were all dog thieves, ruining the good things of the master mother and everyone.

couldn't bear to disturb, so she stopped, but Chunlan still woke up in the cold wind brought in from outside her door, saw her herald standing in front of her, looked at herself embarrassedly, and quickly sat up straight, and quickly folded the worn letter, held it in her arms, and pressed it carefully, for fear of falling off, after everything stopped, she deliberately coughed.

The pro-soldier sister hurriedly said, "Sister Chunlan." ”

"Is there something wrong?"

"Political Officer Li Chunhou is asking to see him outside."

"Ah, then what are you waiting for, hurry up and call Brother Li to come in and talk, it's cold outside." Chunlan knew that at such a late hour, Li Chunhou must have something important to do, and it could not be delayed.

The soldier sister agreed, hurried to the door of the shed, lifted the cotton curtain and said outside, "Governor, please come in." ”

Li Chunhou hurriedly sorted out his clothes outside, reported his name loudly, and then bowed down and walked in.

It is really inconvenient to visit a girl's station day and night, but there is no way, although he has caught all of them in Yichuan, but when Chunlan arrived here, Li Chunhou put his position in a good way, which is the duty of a minister and must not be crossed.

After coming in, he gave a deep salute to Chunlan, who didn't rest when he saw him, "I've seen Captain Chunlan." ”

Chunlan hurriedly stood up and returned the salute, and hurriedly asked, "I came late at night, but what happened?" ”

Li Chunhou saluted again, frowned and said: "Captain Chunlan, I just went to the warehouse to check the ordnance materials, food and other materials are quite sufficient, but there is not much gunpowder and explosives left, and some need to be urgently dispatched in the old camp in Huluyu, which needs to be signed and approved by Captain Chunlan." ”

Chunlan poked her face with her hand to sober herself up, and then promised, "You will report it to me, and I will do it immediately." ”

"Yes." Li Chunhou hurriedly handed over the report in his sleeve.

Chunlan took it, looked at it, signed it under the lamp, and then handed it back to Li Chunhou, and asked by the way: "How was the battle on the ferry today?" ”

"The battle on the ferry today is not as tense as a few days ago, and Li Zicheng's attack is not urgent, it seems that he is a little powerless." Seeing that Chunlan frowned and was puzzled, she hurriedly added: "Ten days of continuous fighting, let anyone be beaten with iron, and it can't last, this is also a fact." ”

Chunlan nodded slightly, and said softly: "Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng and other thieves are not dead to the thieves in the base area, and they want to kill them at all costs, but they suddenly become no longer urgent, which makes people understand, we can't take it lightly." ”

"Yes." Li Chunhou hurriedly agreed, but he still comforted Chunlan and said: "Ten days of fierce fighting, don't say that you are the one who attacks, even us defenders are exhausted, and it is common sense for Li Zicheng and others to slow down the attack." ”

"King Chuang is not here, and it is all up to Mr. Li to support him, so he must not slack off." Seeing that Li Chunhou wanted to say something to confess, Chunlan hurriedly stopped talking nonsense and said, "Did you send the subsidized ordnance to Guangwu?" ”

"We have just arranged for manpower, and it will be delivered before dawn."

"Very well, we can't delay this important matter." Chunlan nodded approvingly. Li Chunhou is hard-working and decent, which is really a rare talent.

"If there is nothing to command, I will go." Li Chunhou finished his report and hurriedly left.

Looking at Li Chunhou's obviously pale face, Chunlan couldn't bear to say: "These things are arranged, hurry up and find a place to squint, it seems that the war is not over in a day or two." ”

Li Chunhou hurriedly saluted again: "Thank you, Captain Chunlan, for worrying." He breathed a sigh of relief and said lightly: "Ten days, I think it is already the limit of the pole, no accident, the war will end in two or three days." Then he smiled and said: "Ha, it's also thanks to Gao Yingxiang's guy, it's really so tenacious, but when the battle in Weinan is over, he will look good." ”

With Li Chunhou's analysis, Chunlan also became relaxed and said, "Yes, no surprise-"

Suddenly, a female soldier suddenly rushed into the house and said eagerly: "Oh no, there is a sky-high fire in Ji County-"
