Chapter 8: Sneak Attack

During Xie Changchuan's more than ten years as the commander of Sima in the central region, he watched countless noble sons go to the battlefield, and then they were wrapped in linen cloth and returned.

Therefore, Huo Quai, Yunlang and their careful preparation is not too out of line, and some of the big men of the family came to Baishan Mountain, and they were more prepared than Yunlang and they were.

So, his anger was all faked.

It's just that it's the first time Xie Changchuan has seen an army like a full-armored soldier like Captain Caidu.

Just like Pei Yan said, if a family wants to revitalize, it is useless to just be active in a small circle.

It is necessary to constantly stretch out its tentacles, and eventually form a huge web, which is the sign of a family's deeproots.

Two shameless old thieves, in order to pave a way for their children and nephews, actually pulled down their old faces to act.

Sure enough, as soon as Yun Lang's words fell, a hearty young man in light armor ran out from behind Xie Changchuan laughing, first gave Yun Lang a bear hug, and then very unceremoniously began to command the soldiers to drive the cattle instead of Yun Lang, and continued to wind the iron chain.

Pei Yan pointed at Xie Ning with satisfaction and smiled: "Okay, this is the advantage of young people being together, as long as you say hello, you can form a group, and A-Ning will have companions to fight together in the future." ”

Xie Changchuan also laughed, waved his hand, and a hundred and ten people rushed over, took the shovel from the hands of the cavalry captain and began to work.

It can be seen that Xie Changchuan is also a very interesting person, and he also knows that after stuffing his son in, he must give the captain of the horse a little benefit.

After sending away two old bastards who were accustomed to pretending to be pigs and eating tigers, Yun Lang came to Xie Ning and said with a smile: "Your father is willing to throw you over." ”

Xie Ning smiled bitterly: "You are noble, my father arranged you in this dangerous place in Hook Mountain, it is a little unreasonable, if you don't get me over, my father and Uncle Pei will not be able to explain to the eldest princess." ”

This is true, Yun Lang patted Xie Ning on the shoulder and said: "Honestly, but don't be bitter, we are not gentlemen who don't understand anything, the reason why we agreed is that we are sure that we will retreat." ”

Xie Ning said with a smile: "You are a strange person in Chang'an, my father and Uncle Pei have already inquired clearly, you are also good men with military merits, not Xinding who doesn't know anything."

The Huns will be busy finding food for themselves, and they don't have time to come to Hook Mountain, I don't know how we should deal with it now?

Look at the bridge we are building, do we have to stick to it? ”

Yun Lang likes this hearty young man very much, this guy doesn't look like a guy with a bearded father, but looks more delicate.

The body looks thinner, but it is strong and powerful, and one person pulls a plate of iron chains weighing two hundred pounds with a clattering sound.

"No way, we don't have much combat experience, what we can do at the moment is to defend layer by layer, first the sword and shield soldiers in front of the stable position, behind the crossbow array, and then the cavalry on both sides of the foot of the mountain, once you find an opportunity to take advantage of the impact, if the cavalry comes back, and the Huns do not let go, then it is time for the trebuchet to exert its might.

If these could not resist the Huns, we would retreat along this bridge to the side of Baishan Mountain, relying on the army to continue to kill and wound the Huns. ”

Xie Ning nodded again and again, very much in recognition of Yun Lang's tactics.

"In other words, when the Huns come, we will not turn around and run away, but first resist for a while, use all the methods of resistance, and then run, and not fight to the death with the Huns, right?"

Yun Lang nodded and said: "That's right, we are here to fight against the Huns to make military merits, but we are not here to send them to death, if we die after a battle, it is useless, it is better to keep our lives and continue to consume with the Huns." ”

Xie Ning said with a smile: "My father said that the reason why he was able to become a lieutenant in the middle of the country from a small soldier is not because his credit is the greatest, but because he has lived the longest time in a group of robes. ”

Yun Lang raised his thumb and said: "Zhizhi famous, you have to remember in the future, go, report to the master, go to the sick This person gets along very well, of course, the premise is that you are not a wreck." ”

Xie Ning patted his chest, turned around and lifted a giant hammer, and dozens of hammers in a row hammered a wooden stake into the hard ground, and then put down the hammer without blushing or panting and said to Yun Lang: "Please taste it first!" ”

Yun Lang sighed and said: "Strength is good strength, but it is not used in a place, the wooden stake you hammered in is used to build a fence, you hammered it all into the ground, how the hell do you do a fence?" ”

Shainin laughed, took a shovel and began to dig...... It must be said that this guy had great strength, and in a short time he dug out the stake three feet deep into the earth, filled in the pit, and pounded the ground with a rammer, and the last few hammers once again nailed the stake as level as the rest of the stakes.

Yun Lang tested the stake, nodded and said: "I have passed this level, no matter what else, at least, obey the military order, and if there is a mistake, you will be qualified." ”

Xie Ning said with a face of vicissitudes: "Born in my family, I have obeyed orders since I was a child, and if I don't listen once, it will be a ...... of horses."

Watching Xie Ning climb across the Blind River along an iron chain, this guy was already a qualified cavalry lieutenant partner in Yun Lang's eyes.

In this conversation just now, both sides got what they wanted, and Xie Ning knew that the cavalry captain was not a group of fools who would scream and pounce on the Huns when they saw them.

Yun Lang also knew that Xie Ning was not a bastard who would rely on his father to ride the lieutenant to cause chaos because his father was the lieutenant of the central region.

As he said, he came to the army to give Changping and Wei Qing an explanation, after all, they needed to explain to Changping and Wei Qing in the most dangerous place.

Xie Changchuan used his own son to join the cavalry captain and fight side by side with Huo Quai's group of people, which gave Changping the most perfect interpretation of the selflessness of the Grand Duke.

A noble boy is like a monkey and climbs with a group of soldiers on the iron rope with indescribable harmony, looking at the way he acts, you know that he has done such a thing.

After the cavalry captain has him, he can indeed reassure Yun Lang a lot, in Dahan, there are not many things that can reassure him, and there are not many people.

The Huns seem to be indifferent to Baishan, but in fact they are paying attention to Baishanshan all the time.

On the third day, when Yunlang and they began to install the fourth iron cable, a huge log rushed down from the upper reaches of the Blind River with the surging water, and the huge tree also carried countless branches on it, with obvious traces of processing, which should have been the destruction method carried out by the Huns after discovering that the Han army had built the bridge.

There were a total of four interception nets in the area of a hundred zhang upstream of the chain bridge, and after such an obvious giant tree rushed down, it was naturally discovered by the men sent out by the cavalry captain.

When the giant wood came to the first interception net, it was caught by the hook of the Han army, and then dragged ashore, and when the wood was dried, it would be broken down into planks and laid on the chain bridge.

For this reason, Yun Lang deliberately ordered to slow down the construction of the chain bridge, if the Huns could continue to send wood, the biggest trouble in the construction of the chain bridge would disappear.

After all, such a giant tree is not available everywhere, and even if there is, it is not easy to transport to the construction site.

In the next few days, the Huns continued to throw wood into the river, and the soldiers of the cavalry captain worked day and night to salvage the wood, and the two cooperated very well.

Sometimes a large group of giant trees would float over during the day, and sometimes a few would sneak over at night, which was full of low-level cunning of the Huns.

Until one dark night, after the soldiers had taken away a huge log, more than a dozen Huns covered in black oil jumped out of the water and slashed the chains with knives and hammers......

The sparks collided with gold and iron were particularly eye-catching at night, and more than a dozen people chopping together were like setting off small fireworks.

Yun Lang stood on the bank of the river, looking at the Huns in the river destroying the iron chain with an expressionless face, he was not worried that the iron chain would be destroyed, as far as the blade in the hands of the Huns, the quality was not as good as the iron chain, and the iron chain was dangling in the air, there was no place to work, and the effect was very poor.

Li Dang laughed very happily, and every time a spark came up, a feather arrow sank into the darkness, and then there was a scream.

Huo Quzhi also ignored the Huns, and said to Yun Lang with his hands behind his back: "There are fewer people coming." ”

Yun Lang said with a smile: "It is impossible to come too much, there are not many people among the Huns who are good at swimming, and the river is narrow, it would be good to have more than a dozen people to come." ”

Cao Xiang saw that Li Dang kept firing arrows, and after a while, there was no movement in the iron chains, so he ordered the guards: "Have you fished the body back?" “

The guard replied, "There is a net downstream. ”

Xie Ning didn't seem to care much about the corpse or anything, and asked Huo Quai: "Can you rely on this chain bridge to bring more Huns over?" ”

Huo Quzhi shook his head and said: "The battlefield will not be on the Blind River, it should be on Hook Mountain!" ”
