Chapter 36: Counterattack and Path

Gao Mingheng came out of King Zhou's mansion for a short time, and his face was already adjusted.

There is no clue at all. It seems that the true feelings in front of King Zhou have never been revealed, and it is still the kind of taste of Mount Tai collapsing in front of him, and the color remains unchanged.

As soon as Gao Mingheng returned to the governor's yamen, Huang Shu came over. It is said that the car formation of the social soldiers has been built. Asked him to inspect, where Gao Mingheng had time, he immediately pushed it off, called Sang Kai over, discussed Chen Yongfu's plan, and immediately started work.

It took a whole night to demolish all the buildings between the back wall of the Zhou palace and the north city wall, and then build a city wall to connect the back wall of the Zhou palace with the north city wall.

Although the project was expedited, it would take a day or two.

During this period of time, Xiao Yuanying opened a gap in the north city wall. It's just that the Kaifeng city wall is too high and thick, even if the gap is blasted, most of them are smashed out of a big pit outside the city wall, and the so-called gap is just the collapsed side of Kaifeng City.

Attacking upwards is still an upward attack.

The two sides fought fiercely on the battlefield, and when they broke into the camp and saw the progress of Xiao Yuan's battalion, they actually transferred a lot of infantry teams, and it seemed that they also wanted to break through from the direction of Beicheng.

And behind the city wall, countless Kaifeng people are also working urgently.

The walls were built using the plate method, the oldest method of construction, in which two wooden planks were used and mud was added to solidify them.

This method of building earthen walls, even in the eighties, some houses in the countryside were still in use.

Of course, if you want to be strong, it depends on what kind of soil you fill it into.

The construction of the city wall is generally made of triple earth, and then it is compacted with huge stones, but for a time they have no time, and it is only a temporary reinforcement.

After three days, the second line of defense in the north of Kaifeng City has been built.

After this line of defense was completed, Gao Mingheng breathed a sigh of relief, and at this time, Huang Shu came to ask him to watch the car formation of the social soldiers again. Gao Mingheng couldn't shirk it, so he had to take a look.

Kaifeng City is in the middle of the school field.

Now in Kaifeng City, it is not easy to have such a large open space.

Because of Li Zicheng, the current Kaifeng City is a bit overcrowded. It is only in the school field that there is a large open space.

When Gao Mingheng arrived, Li Xiliang and his party had been waiting on the school grounds for a long time.

Gao Mingheng glanced at it, and said secretly in his heart: "This is still a little spirited." ”

Although Gao Mingheng doesn't know much about military affairs, he has seen a lot of armies, and he also has his own set of systems for evaluating the combat effectiveness of the army

, After waiting for a long time, the formation did not move at all.

With such an army, Gao Mingheng really hasn't seen much.

Although Gao Mingheng can see that this army really has no murderous spirit, but the evaluation in Gao Mingheng's heart can be used.

Gao Mingheng sat on the platform, and Huang Shu stood beside him and said, "Let's start." ”

"Yes." Li Xiliang said.

He took a few steps forward and said, "Beat the drum." ”

"Boom." With a bang, the drums on both sides, almost as tall as they were, were beaten.

In the midst of the dense drums, the soldiers below seemed to change immediately, and one by one they entered their group of parked cars, which were about a zhang long, with only one side nailed thick wooden planks, and all kinds of firearms on the car.

This car formation should be regarded as a long snake formation.

Li Xiliang shouted: "Change the formation." ”

The drums then changed to a different rhythm and seemed to become denser. Immediately, countless cars lined up in a neat circle on the school grounds.

Li Xiliang ordered again and again.

With each order, the drums change, and all kinds of simple formations change on the school field.

Gao Mingheng held the armrest of the chair with one hand, and said secretly in his heart: "The social soldiers are available." ”

Although Gao Mingheng has not really trained soldiers, he also knows that such a change in formation, although it is simple, but it is actually the most basic quality of an army, especially the car formation, the faster the change, the better, Gao Mingheng saw this formation, and remembered that Huang Shu talked about Li Xiliang's plan before. It suddenly seemed that this plan was not useless.

"Your Excellency." Huang Shu has been by Gao Mingheng's side, secretly observing Gao Mingheng's face, and said: "With the ability of the social soldiers, within an hour, the formation can be spread out between the north gate of Kaifeng and Zhujiazhai, and the Hebei reinforcements can be welcomed into the city." If the adults want to go further, they can rely on the car formation, establish Yongdao, and transfer military rations, so with the support of Hebei, Kaifeng City can hold it for as long as they want. ”

Yongdao was very common in the pre-Qin era, but it was rare in later generations, the battle of Xiang Yu Julu, the first thing to cross the Zhanghe River, was to break the Qin army's Yongdao.

The so-called Yongdao can be regarded as an ancient highway, except that there are walls on both sides, and a road in the middle, which is used the most to transport grain.

Gao Mingheng's heart suddenly moved a little.

"Your Excellency. Students ask for battle. Li Xiliang seized the opportunity to kneel in front of Gao Mingheng and said: "The situation in Kaifeng City is precarious now, and now there is still the power of a war, I am afraid that after a long time, the morale of the city will decline, and even the power of a war will be gone." ”

Gao Mingheng said, "Get up." "After all, Li Xiliang is from a good background, and he made meritorious contributions in the second attack on Kaifeng

Achievement, was rewarded by Emperor Chongzhen's holy decree, Gao Mingheng also gave him a face, sighed, and said: "The palace ministers have the heart to serve the country, but this matter is a big matter, how can it be decided in a hurry, so let's do it, this official pulls out a thousand taels of silver, rewards the whole army, you are stepping up training, and you will be useful in the future." ”

Li Xiliang only felt that Gao Mingheng was just a prevarication, but Huang Shu heard a hint of Gao Mingheng's words, and was immediately overjoyed, and said to Li Xiliang: "Thank you soon, Lord Governor." ”

Seeing Huang Shu like this, Li Xiliang's heart moved, and he immediately said, "Thank you, Lord Governor." ”

Gao Mingheng did not stay for long, and immediately returned to the governor's yamen, and later, invited Chen Yongfu over, and only asked one thing, whether Kaifeng City should fight back, can it fight back?

Chen Yongfu pondered for a moment and said: "My lord, if you defend it for a long time, you will lose it, how can the last general not know, but now the city is attacking from all sides, and all the soldiers in the city who have combat power have been sent to the city, and in Kaifeng City, the army that dares to go out of the city to fight with the thieves in the field is only in the lower headquarters, but the northern city is very urgent, I can't leave, and once our men and horses are lost outside the city, can this city still be defended?" ”

Although Gao Mingheng was not very comfortable listening to it, he also had to admit that what Chen Yongfu said was the truth.

Gao Mingheng immediately told Li Xiliang's plan. Chen Yongfu pondered for a while, half thinking about Gao Mingheng's thoughts, half thinking about this matter, for a while, he said: "This matter, you can try it, but it is best to discuss it with Hebei, not only I will send troops in Kaifeng City, but the two sides will send troops together, and the inside and outside should be combined."

Gao Mingheng's eyes lit up, and he said secretly in his heart: "Why didn't I think of it?" ”

Gao Mingheng pondered, now north of the Yellow River, there are about 10,000 or 20,000 people, and it is unlikely that they will break the thieves and relieve the siege of Feng, but it should be possible for him to send a group of soldiers and horses to cross the river to the south and join forces with the social soldiers, and garrison between the Yellow River and Kaifeng City, and open a passage for Kaifeng City.

Gao Mingheng immediately repaired a letter and sent scouts to deliver the letter to the camp in Hebei.

Two days later, Gao Mingheng's letter finally arrived in the camp in Hebei.

If it is unimpeded, a letter will be delivered to the camp in Hebei, and it will not take a day. But being able to deliver a letter to the Hebei camp in the midst of heavy siege can be regarded as a warrior.

Hou Sui put this letter on the table with a wax pill secret book that I don't know how many lives were sent, and he was also very depressed in his heart. Hou Sui knew that the reason why he was released from the edict and was entrusted with a heavy task was because of the relationship between himself and Zuo Liangyu, but the love of the year was the love of the year, after so many years, there was only a few points left of the love of the year, and Hou Sui himself understood. Without the support of Zuo Liangyu's troops, he is just an empty shelf.

In any case, what needs to be done, must be done.

Hou Sui said: "Order the generals to deliberate. ”
