Chapter 9: Building an Ice Wall
"What do you think?" Zhao Yun noticed the look of shock on Wang Wu's face and asked.
Wang Wu sorted out his thoughts, and then told Zhao Yun the words that the lonely swordsman posted on the barrage.
The more he listened, the tighter Zhao Yun's brows wrinkled, although he couldn't fully imagine the situation that appeared in Changshan County, which was far away from the border gates, he also knew the seriousness of this incident.
"Now that the vanguard has been dispatched, the heart of the Hu people and wolves is clearly revealed!" Wang Wu said, "Although we have been completely annihilated, the overwhelming territory of its army is only in the blink of an eye...... The Great Wall is in danger! ”
"What are your plans?" Zhao Yun looked at Wang Wu's eyes and said slowly.
"Hold on!" Wang Wu's voice carried a hint of determination, "For today's plan, we can only defend it." ”
Wang Wu thinks that he is not a hero, but he can't watch Hu Ren set foot in the Central Plains.
This is the conscience of a modern man.
He can give up the Great Wall, he can run away quickly, but if he really does this, I am afraid that he will have to live in guilt for the rest of his life!
"Brother Tai is willing to ......" Wang Wugang said half a sentence, but was immediately interrupted by Zhao Yun.
"As I said below, it is the duty of every son of my Han family to fight against Hulu, so why should Your Excellency ask again?" Although it was a questioning tone, Wang Wu could hear that Zhao Yun was not really angry.
Wang Wu didn't say anything, just looked at Zhao Yun deeply.
Then, Wang Wu turned around and ran down the tower and set up defenses.
While the Hu army had not yet arrived, he hurried to make some arrangements.
However, it is not known how much of a role these arrangements can play.
Walking into the barracks, more than a dozen Han soldiers were already asleep.
"Zhang Cang!" Wang Wu immediately shouted.
"The little ones are here!" Zhang Cang immediately turned over and sat up from the simple wooden bed, and stood up and replied, "What does the general command?" ”
"Find a few people!" Wang Wu said, "There is a mission! ”
Zhang Cang quickly ordered the three lightly wounded soldiers, and the group of four came to the outside of the barracks.
"Is there a market town nearby?" Glancing at the four of them, Wang Wu asked.
"Yes!" Zhang Cang stood up, "There is a market town less than ten miles away from here, called Da Chen Ji, and the small one is Da Chen Jiren's clan." ”
"Good." Wang Wu nodded, "Zhang Cang!" You will take people to Dachenji to recruit villagers, and you must rush back before dark! ”
"Command!" After speaking, Zhang Cang quickly got on his horse and left with the other two Han soldiers.
Watching Zhang Cang and the three of them go away with deep eyes, Wang Wu turned his head back and looked at the only remaining Han soldier in front of him.
After a long time, Wang Wu finally spoke, but with a hint of helplessness: "Do you know how to ride a horse?" ”
"Villain riding skills are a must in the army!" The Han soldier said dissatisfiedly.
Wang Wu shook his head and said, "What's your name?" ”
"The little one is called a dog."
"That's a ...... name." Wang Wu smiled, "How do you become a soldier?" ”
"The villain's parents were killed by the Hu people, but it was Master Zhang Cang who picked up the young villain at that time." There was no joy or sorrow in the voice of the dog, "Since then, I have been stationed on the Great Wall for more than four years......"
"Uh....." Wang Wu was dumbfounded, daring to love was still an orphan of the Great Wall.
However, in this era, there are many such orphans.
"I'll give you a task, ride a fast horse to find the second son's army, and then report the situation here to the second son, so that he can send light horsemen over as soon as possible to reinforce them!" Wang Wu patted Yunwen on the shoulder and said, "The lives of all of us here are on you!" ”
"Haven't the Hu people been killed, what are you worried about?" The dog was a little puzzled.
"I won't tell you the truth...... the corners of Wang Wu's mouth flashed with a hint of bitterness, "I'm afraid the Hu people I killed before are just the vanguard of the pathfinder." ”
Tie Dan was shocked when he heard this, but he ...... Vanguard!?
"The little one will go to find the second son!" Tie Dan said.
"Go ahead!" Wang Wu waved his hand, "Take two more horses, change to ride, and besides, don't tell others what I just said, so as not to shake the morale of the army!" ”
"No!" Tie Dan took a deep swipe and turned to leave.
After explaining these two things, Wang Wu walked to the camp again.
"Your Excellency!"
"Your Excellency!"
After resting for a while, the Han soldiers who had recovered a trace of their spirit greeted Wang Wu one after another.
Wang Wu nodded to everyone, and then cleared his throat: "Brothers, it's not time to rest, the Great Wall is broken, we must build an ice wall to block the gap!" ”
The idea of building an ice wall was also provided by the guy whose ID was Lonely Swordsman, and Cao Cao during the Three Kingdoms period also used it.
"The villain is willing to go!"
"The little ones too!"
For a time, the harmony should be everywhere.
"Good!" Wang Wu nodded, if you can still move, follow me to build the ice wall! ”
With Wang Wu's order, the few Han soldiers who were still able to move followed him to the vicinity of the gap, ready to water and build an ice wall.
……
Heavy clouds, long wind piercing face, Shuo snow love cold armor.
When Zhang Cang and the three of them rushed to the pass with more than 100 villagers, he was stunned.
Because he found that the big gap that was originally broken was actually blocked by a small half! It's just that it's not rammed earth or bricks, it's ice!
Above the gap and in the pass, the six or seven robes who had survived the bloody battle were busy, and some people took snow and turned into water, and when the snow turned into water, they immediately took it and poured it on the gap without waiting for a fever, and the snow that had just melted was immediately condensed into ice as soon as the howling north wind blew.
Then, the ice wall on the gap increased by another point.
After a long time, Zhang Cang finally came back to his senses, and hurriedly brought more than 100 villagers to join in, and there were more than 100 people at once, and the efficiency of pouring the ice wall was greatly improved.
Zhang Cang went up to the city and came to Wang Wu.
"Captain Yu, the little one has already brought all the young people of Da Chen Ji, a total of more than 100 people." Zhang Cang bowed his hand.
"Well, well done!" Wang Wu patted Zhang Cang's shoulder and said.
More than a hundred, although not much, but it is better than only a dozen.
The sky was getting darker, and the ice wall was getting higher and higher, and in this hazy night, it was no different from the city wall.
After dinner and resting for a while, Wang Wu's ears suddenly sounded a scream.
Hurriedly ran up the city wall, looked up to the north, and saw a little fire coming in the night......
The Hu army has arrived!
