Chapter 611: It Started with Wei Bei
Shimen Mountain is the southern barrier of Hexi County of Wei State, and it is this mountain and the big river that lie in the south of Hexi County one after another, so that the Hexi County Government, which has more than enough strength but insufficient strength, relaxes its defense of the southern counties, and this is what allows those Rongdi tribes who have advanced eastward to occupy the great rivers and mountains.
Shimen Mountain has many peaks and peaks, winding paths, lush forests, and a humid climate.
The mountain range resembles "nine lotus mounds", there is the saying that "the mountain does not cover the soil, the water does not return to one", and the ghost axe is slashed, and the peaks are surrounded by strangeness.
With the change of seasons, spring flowers, summer shade, autumn fruits, winter snow, beautiful scenery, fascinating, if in the eyes of people with a heart, this place is also a blessed place.
But now, this place is inaccessible, there is no trail in the mountain, there are many wild beasts, there is no lack of jackals, tigers and leopards and other fierce beasts for chaos, so that today's Hexi County of Wei State, the decree of the county government stops at the northern foot of Shimen Mountain.
Shimen Mountain is a deep mountain range from northeast to southwest, like a sharp long knife, the tip of the knife is just facing the Yan city of Wei, this Yan is the minister of Hexi of Wei, the place where Hexi merchants gather, in terms of prosperity, it is not inferior to Anyi, the former capital of Wei in Hexi.
Of course, there is a deeper reason, which is that this Yan clan is only more than 30 miles away from Anyi.
The place where Lin Yuyan has arrived now is the hilt part of this Shimen Mountain, which is the east of the Fengling Tomb, but because this place is full of Rong Di, there is no place for the existence of the townships of the Wei State, and even if there was before, it will be wiped out by the Rong Di tribe who robbed the house.
As for understanding the location, it is still a stone tablet that Lin Yuyan led the army to enter Shimen Mountain, and saw a stone tablet, except for the word "Wei" in the seal style of the Wei State, there is no other explanation on it.
Let's call this place "Wei Monument".
Arrived at Weibei, it was the second day of departure from the Huaide camp, because before going down the Weishui, the distance was less than half, so Lin Yuyan also chose to take a simple rest in the Weibei area.
As early as a few months ago, Lin Yuyan sent men and horses to draw a map of the path in the mountains through Shimen Mountain in World War I, where weeds were overgrown, branches and foliage were luxuriant, the forest was deep and dense, and there were countless miscellaneous insects and beasts ambushing in the dark places in the mountains.
Crossing Shimen Mountain, for this hundred-mile raid of the Rui battalion, will be the most difficult part of this surprise battle.
Lin Yuyan ordered his own guard battalion, that is, the Baili Battalion brought by Huang Lie from Longdong, as the vanguard of the opening road, after all, the predecessor of the Baili Battalion was the scout battalion among the Wuguan defenders.
Lin Yuyan recruited generals such as Gongsun Qi, Xuan Ran and Hu Sheng, and now these people have gradually become an extremely excited state from the shock of hearing that they were about to attack Anyi, the former capital of Wei.
Lin Yuyan said again: "The twists and turns of the mountain road in Shimen Mountain are estimated to be about 300 miles, and the road is difficult, and the trek is difficult, can you be afraid?" ”
At this time, Hu Shu shook his head heroically, and replied to Lin Yuyan: "This Shimen Mountain, how can it be compared to the Longxi Mountain, when I was in Yongcheng in the old days, I was fearless, how could it be that I was afraid of this Shimen Mountain!" ”
Lin Yuyan nodded, and then Gongsun Qi and Xuan Ran also voted: "But by the orders of General Gongzi Yan!" ”
Lin Yuyan nodded again and said: "Even if the mountain road is difficult, but the time I give you to cross Shimen Mountain is only five days, if you can't pass through Shimen in five days, the whole army will retreat, and your immortal military exploits will also come to naught!" ”
"Five Days ......" Xuan Ran and Hu Shu both hesitated.
Three hundred miles, five days, sixty miles a day,
If it is on flat ground, this is naturally not a problem, but in Shimen Mountain...... Although this Shimen Mountain is not as difficult as Cuihan or Longxi Mountain, it is also tortuous, rugged and bumpy, and it is not much easier to walk 60 miles a day than to walk 100 miles a day on a flat road!
Soon, Gongsun Qi gave a firm answer: "A certain must lead the army to reach the north of Shimen Mountain within five days!" ”
"Good!" Lin Yuyan nodded heavily, among the troops who raided this time, Lin Yuyan relied on the likes of Hu Shu and Xuan Ran the most, or even Huang Lie's Baili Battalion, and as a last resort, Lin Yuyan didn't want to easily reveal his identity to the Wei people.
Therefore, Lin Yuyan took out the map, pointed to the topography of Shimen Mountain on the map, and said to everyone: "The first city north of Shimen is the important commercial and trade city of Hexi in the Wei State, which has countless money and grain, but because in the eyes of the Wei people, this place is close to Anyi, and the distance is only more than 30 miles, which is where the central hinterland is located. ”
"That Hexi County Commander Longgu, in order to resist the menacing old Qin Zhong Army and the Left Army west of the big river, must be transferred to all the soldiers and horses that can be mobilized in Hexi, even the young and strong in Hexi, and the people will be emptied!"
"According to the secret agent's return, the military horses of the Wei State are now stationed in the Yan Clan, and the soldiers and civilians are young and strong, but they can't hold more than 3,000 people......"
Speaking of this, Lin Yuyan paused, and then named Gongsun Qi: "Gongsun Qi, I will order your department to be the front army, lead the people of the headquarters to take the lead, and take advantage of the Yan clan's defenselessness to attack the Yan clan in one fell swoop." ”
Speaking of this, Lin Yuyan's eyes also became fierce, and he said sharply: "This attack on the Yan Clan, all the soldiers within the Yan Clan are all killed, and the Wei people within the Yan Clan, whether they are old or young, women and children, are all detained, even if they are merchants from all countries, they are no exception!" ”
"Whoa!" Although Gongsun Qi's answer was not loud, it was calm and resolute.
Seeing this, Xuan Ran and Hu Shu next to him only felt that their hesitation had made them miss a major military achievement, you must know that the Yan clan has gathered seventy percent of the merchants in Hexi, and the wealth accumulated in them must not be a few, and Lao Qin, whether it is attacking the city, can share the local accumulation of thirty percent of the participating army.
Thirty percent of the accumulation of salt!
If Gongsun Qi's troops were the first to arrive to attack the Yan Clan, there would be only more than 2,000 people in their army, and the accumulation of thirty percent of the Yan Clan would be enough for the soldiers under Gongsun Qi's command to turn from the people of Qianshou who could be seen everywhere in Lao Qin to a wealthy man.
At the moment, whether it is for the title or for the background of the soldiers under his command, Xuan Ran and Hu Shu are all ordered to fight.
However, the mountain road was narrow, and the old Qin scouts only discovered a mountain road, unable to let several battalions of people pass by side of the horse, and Lin Yuyan only placed it behind Gongsun Qi's department.
