2168 Ping'an Fort
On the southwestern defense line of the Qin State. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info in Zhao Jun's safe fortress. This was the fourth fortress established by the Zhao army. Zhao Jun named it Ping'an Fort. The forts built by the Zhao army before were all named according to numbers, for example, the first fort was called the No. 1 fort, followed by the No. 2 fort, because the dead fort "four" and "death" are homophonic, if it is called the No. 4 fort, it is easy to call it the "dead fort." In order to choose a certain amount of smoothness, it was called "Peace Fortress". ”
"Hurry up and repair, and eat after this section." A lieutenant rolled up his sleeves and ordered. Then he took a sip of the water in the jug and rested.
"Damn, let's build the fortress, you fucking rest." A sergeant veteran scolded discontentedly, he waved his shovel and dug trenches, these trenches were used for defense, and their fortress was built on a commanding height, and on the commanding height, was their fortress of peace, where the first battalion of the 17th Infantry Regiment of the Zhao Army was stationed. Three companies, one of which was responsible for the defense, and the other two served as temporary sappers to patch up their fortifications.
"Lao Cao, stop scolding. Save some effort. The same sergeant walked over and looked at the lieutenant in the distance, then hid in a blind spot and rested.
"Yo, you're smart enough." At this time, the sergeant named Lao Cao scolded.
"Huh. Hurry up, let's hide, rest, and let those stupid soldiers do their work, how can we veterans do this work. The sergeant said.
"Yes. It's still right what you Lao Li thinks. Saying that, Lao Cao also hid, and then the two of them rested.
"What's so good about our fortress building in this broken place?" Saying that, Lao Cao sat on the shovel and said.
"I don't know, birds don't poop in this place. I heard that the people of Qin asked us to establish such a colony, and our government established such a colony, and I don't know if the people above didn't say to come and see here, what is here? In addition to the mountains, they are still mountains, or these broken grasses, and there are some cattle and sheep, and the cattle here are still chewing their teeth. It's a fucking good place, I don't even want this place to give it to me. Lao Cao said dissatisfiedly.
"No, I'm still thinking about getting rich when I come here. Who knows. We are considered to have suffered the sin of distribution. Lao Li said helplessly.
"Forget it. I don't know what to eat tonight? If only there was mutton soup. Soak a few dough cakes. That taste. It's delicious, this is the way of eating in Qin. Lao Li said with drooling.
"Can you eat this soaked dough?" Lao Cao asked.
"Yes, absolutely, it's delicious. That's how Qin Jun's side ates. When I came, I came from the Qin people, and although I didn't eat the food, I thought it was delicious when I saw it. Lao Li said.
"Oh." When Lao Cao heard this way of eating, he also felt delicious, and his saliva kept staying.
"Don't say it, in this place we came to, there is no shortage of beef and mutton, if we are in the mainland, we will definitely not be able to eat meat, maybe we won't be able to eat enough." Lao Cao swallowed his saliva and said.
"Hmm. It's better than the mainland, but there's no way to eat enough. Lao Li said.
"Toot toot. Toot toot toot. Just when Lao Li wanted to move on to the next topic, a hurried military horn urged them.
"Hurry up. There are enemy attacks. The lieutenant shouted loudly not far away.
"Not good. Get up. Lao Cao was the first to react when he heard the horn, and then quickly grabbed his weapon, while Lao Li grabbed his armed belt and stood up with his weapon.
"Assemble quickly. Gather. The lieutenant shouted. The scattered soldiers quickly gathered, and under the reprimand of the officer, they hurriedly formed their formation, and then drove to their positions.
"They're finally here." Inside the guard post of the fortress. Zhao Lun said with a smile while holding the telescope in his hand. He was the commander of Fort Ping'an and the commander of the 1st Battalion of the 17th Infantry Regiment, and his main task was to protect the existence of Fort Ping'an.
"Sir. The Qiang people came quite a lot, almost two or three thousand people. Captain Zhang Li on the side put down the binoculars in his hand and said.
"Are we arresting these Qiang people, I heard that there are many officers on the Qin army's side who are doing this kind of business, if you can, I think we can do the same." Zhang Li suggested.
"Nope." Zhao Lun put down the telescope in his hand and refused directly.
"This." Zhang Li was a little puzzled.
"We have only five hundred troops, how many are there on the other side? Almost three thousand, with a huge disparity in troops. Zhao Lun introduced at this time.
"And our task is different, which is to defend this fortress of peace. And the other side is here to harass us, maybe they want us to take the initiative and take our fortress, we just need to defend our fortress now. The rest of the matter can be left alone. Zhao Lun said.
"But wouldn't it be a shame to do that?" Zhang Li is still unwilling to give up. After all, he came here to make a fortune and leave, he didn't want to stay in this place any longer, and recently he heard that he could make money from the slave trade, so he thought of making a fortune from the slave trade, and then quit himself. Anyway, no matter how much you get promoted, you can't get much higher.
"Nope." Zhao Lun refused.
"The other side is cavalry, we are infantry. Two legs, after all, can't catch up with those damn four-legged cavalry. We can just defend. Zhao Lun refused.
"I know what you think." Zhao Lun glanced back at Zhang Li, I know you want to get rich, I don't want to do it. Zhao Lun said.
"Don't worry, I won't cut off your financial route." Zhao Lun said to Zhang Li.
"When our follow-up troops arrive, as long as there are cavalry, we can sneak attack the camp of those mountain Qiang people, and when the time comes, are we still afraid that there will be no slaves to capture?" At this time, Zhao Lun asked.
"This." Zhang Li lowered his head a little ashamedly.
"Alright. Now is not the time to talk about this, let's organize our defenses. Saying that, Zhao Lun ordered to go down.
Immediately, the Zhao army went on the defensive. The purpose of the mountain Qiang people was clear at the beginning, they wanted to directly lay the fortress, but under the heavy fire of the Zhao army, the mountain Qiang people suffered heavy losses. Many of the attacking mountain Qiang people were beaten by artillery before they could reach their positions, followed by a volley of bullets. Although the mountain Qiang people also had muskets, their range was far from that of the Zhao army, and although they had the advantage of numbers, they could not take Ping'an Fort at all. What they do is useless.
