Chapter 14 takes a different path
Chapter 14 takes a different path
The palace guards of the Changmen saw very clearly, whether it was Huo Quzhi or Cao Xiang, Li Kang had great ambitions.
In the Great Han Kingdom, ambitious people generally only have two ends, one is rich and rich, and the other is to die without a place to be buried.
However, people generally ignore the fact that there is no place to die, because the dead will only die outside, and those who are alive and enjoy the glory and wealth will appear in front of their eyes every day, and use all kinds of luxurious lifestyles to make those who have been timid regret three lives.
The palace guards of Nagato are also well-informed, since it is possible for these people to win a wealth immediately with Huo Quai, why not give this opportunity to their most promising children?
The age of the palace guards of Nagato is not too young, in the Han Dynasty, more than thirty-five years old can already call themselves a certain family, or an old man, many of them are already grandfathers of one or two children.
Unless there are no heirs, but all the Nagato palace guards who have children have not much to think about themselves at this time, and are more making arrangements for the future of their own family.
It may be ridiculous to say, but in fact, in Dahan, a man who can live to the age of fifty safely is already considered a long life.
The Nagato palace guards received an affirmative answer from the main general, and the largest stone hanging in their hearts fell to the ground.
One of the older palace guards stepped forward and whispered to Huo Quai: "The captain doesn't know, that Lian Yu used to be the chome of His Majesty's arsenal, and this matter is extremely confidential, and few people know about it. This time, it seems that there is a meaning of the school examination, not a simple flying and domineering. ”
Huo Quzhi patted the veteran's shoulder, looked at each other and smiled, everything was silent.
The army went deep into the Crouching Tiger Land, and Yun Lang couldn't help but secretly sigh that the Guanzhong Plain at this time was still a vast and sparsely populated place.
Crouching Tiger Land is actually a land of abundant water and grass, with babbling streams between the low hills, as long as it is slightly transformed, it is a paradise.
After walking on the rugged road of Crouching Tiger Land for another two days, the cavalry captain was stopped by a group of Hu people who did not speak much Chinese, and they were not allowed to continue their journey.
This place is already a battlefield they have set up a long time ago.
The subordinates of the king of Chengyang had stayed here for three days, and during these three days, they had built a strong walled city in the Crouching Tiger Land, and from a distance, the low mountain was full of antlers, and everywhere there were tunnels and fetters that blocked the advance of the cavalry.
The walled city of Nuoda resembles a giant hedgehog.
The mountain is not high, but it is condescending and profound, and there are two springs with sufficient water at the bottom of the mountain, and it can be seen from this alone that these armor soldiers are ready to defend this walled city under the command of Lei Shu, one of the eight horses of Huainan.
"It used to be a field battle, but how did it become a siege war this time?" Cao Xiang asked puzzled.
Yun Lang sighed and said: "King Chengyang, King Liang, King Huainan are not very convinced, it is estimated that the losses were too heavy before, this time, they have made up their minds to make His Majesty pay a heavy price."
You only need to look at the person who took the lead in dispatching is a subordinate of Captain Changshui, you should know that Your Majesty is also very aware of the situation, and is ready to let the Hu people help the generals of the Beida Battalion to consume the strength of these armor soldiers first.
It seems that His Majesty is ready to shed blood. ”
Li dared to ask puzzledly: "What kind of treasure is worthy of so many elite soldiers to shed blood for it?" ”
Huo Quzhi sighed and said, "No wonder my aunt, Da Changqiu, your brother doesn't allow us to participate in the treasure hunt."
There are so many things we don't know about, and this rash coming out is indeed a rash mistake on our part.
But it's nothing, if we get it, we go for it, and if the situation is not good, we will slip away. ”
Cao Xiang smiled bitterly: "If you can't get anything and go back, won't you be laughed at by others?" ”
Yun Lang said angrily: "Fighting a war is the same as gambling money, even if you don't lose money, even if you earn it, how dare you ask for so much?" ”
Huo Quzhi pointed to the stream outside the camp with a horsewhip: "Now, those Hu people should have begun to cut off the water source." ”
Yun Lang glanced at the simple but violent aesthetic walled city, frowned, and said: "This walled city is not big, if Lei Quilt really has five thousand people in his hands, he should not place all of them here." ”
Li Dare said: "From the point of view of the art of war, it is not a good way to place all the troops in the city, there must be a ranger outside the city, which is responsible for attacking the enemy from the flank when the enemy is attacking the city."
If all the troops are put in the walled city, this kind of walled city without backup will not be able to hold it for long. ”
Huo Quzhi nodded, looked at his subordinates and said, "We are still too close to the battlefield, and I am worried that those elusive rangers will sneak up on us."
In any case, we look like a flock of lambs sent to death.
Stand back, don't let us be the target of Ray Liwei, damn it, we're the weakest in this. ”
Yun Lang thought so, and when he came to the battlefield, he knew that the battlefield was not a good place, even if the sun was shining and the spring was in good spring, as long as it became a battlefield, it would immediately make people feel that the wind was measuring.
Naturally, the most skilled of the cavalry captains was the construction of the barracks, and in the past winter, they had built their own garrison with their own hands, and built a barracks, granaries, and countless fortifications with their own hands.
Yun Lang felt that the mountain bag full of pine trees on the left was a very good station, as long as the pine trees were cut down and then used to make a walled wall, a good walled city could be quickly built.
Everything else was lacking in the cavalry, but the only thing that was not lacking was the tools, as long as the tools were in hand, the fifteen hundred men did the work very quickly, and in just one afternoon, they cut down all the pine trees on the hill, and then sawed all the thick trunks into timber one and a half feet high, and then buried them in the outermost part of the country densely side by side.
The soldiers cut the trees selectively, so that the wood was connected to the trees, and without burying them very deeply, a solid wall appeared.
By the time it was time for dinner, the walled city was already half complete.
Yun Lang sat on an uncle's pier and was very satisfied with the current progress, and one day, the outer wall of the walled city would be successful.
The most difficult thing is tonight, God knows if Lei Quilt will come to attack the walled city, after all, this walled city is higher than the walled city of Lei Quilt, if there is a ballista, condescending, it should be able to threaten the walled city of Thunder Quilt.
Therefore, Yunlang is ready to start construction overnight......
On the third watch, Yun Lang woke up, rubbed his eyes and walked out of the tent, the walled city outside the tent that had not yet taken shape was illuminated by lantern torches like day, Huo Quai, Cao Xiang, the two of them were wearing armor, guarding the huge gap that needed to be guarded in the north and south, and they couldn't see the slightest bit of fatigue, this was the reserved gate of the walled city!
The outer wall of the walled city has been formed for the most part, and it seems that by dawn, at most, at noon, this camp will begin to take shape.
Dozens of soldiers were making the gate of the camp in the gap, and they were attached to the thick pine wood with the thick mouth of the bowl, and the gate was held in place by two large trees that were full of hugs thick, and with such trees as pillars, the gate should be very strong.
Huo Qubing saw that Yun Lang came out, so he got up and went back to sleep in the tent, and Li Kang also replaced Cao Xiang, and the guards in charge of guarding also began to change shifts, only those soldiers who rushed to repair the city were still busy.
It was a moonless night, except for the brightly lit construction site, it was dark outside, and Yun Lang always felt that someone seemed to be peeping outside.
This feeling of insecurity was so bad that Ray on the right had been removed from the camp with a few torches still blazing, and there was a deathly silence.
"The torches of the light spread outward a hundred paces!"
Yun Lang said to the guards who were guarding beside him.
The guard was a very old Changmen palace guard, and he whispered: "There may be enemy work in the wild grass outside, Sima, why don't we shoot rockets out and ignite those wild grasses, my subordinates have seen it, those wild grasses are half dry and half wet, and the new wild grass has not grown taller, and the outside is full of dry and dead grass, just a little bit." ”
Yun Lang looked outside and whispered, "Will we burn ourselves?" ”
The palace guard of Nagato smiled: "It's the south wind now!" ”
