Chapter 755: The Deadly Beacon
The terrain here is more cheerful than when it was "a line of sky", and it is as wide as a street, so you can see the peaks on both sides. The place where Yang Zaixing and Li Chengwei are looking now is in front of them on their right, and two mountains, one high and one short, arch a peak. In autumn, the trees wither, so it's easy to get a good look. And above that peak, there stands a high platform
Yang Li and the second general are all old fritters who have been on the battlefield for many years, can they still know this? This is obviously a beacon tower used to transmit police information, which is surprising enough, and what makes these two fierce generals jump the most is that there are still people at that beacon tower
At present, although the troops are not far from getting out of the Fukou Pass, due to the terrain and the limitation of the number of people, it will take time for them to pass through the whole process. At this time, if the enemy was warned in advance and quickly mobilized men and horses to rush to the exit to block it, the trip would have been fought, and the trip would have been in vain
Yang Zaixing couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, but after a heart, what followed was a rage that made him stagger, and shouted: "I'll go fucking and call Lund's handful of birds over."
Soon, a man in his thirties, short in stature, but with a pair of small eyes full of jīng spirit, ran over, hugged his fists and said, "Both of you are ......."
"You show Lao Tzu, what is that?" Yang Zaixing's tone was full of fire y-o flavor.
The man was in charge of acting as a guide for the cavalry troops, and although he knew that there was a beacon there, he turned his head to look at it and replied, "It's a beacon." ”
"What did you Hedong Army do? Why didn't Beacon hear you mention it beforehand? Is it the king of the paste, or is it the mushy n-ng us? Li Chengwei asked angrily.
"Li Dutong is angry, there is indeed a beacon here, but it has been abandoned for a long time and has been unattended, so ......" The guide was still a little panicked in the face of the famous brave generals in the Western Army.
"So a unattended? You open your dog's eyes and see, is there no one up there? Yang Zaixing pointed at the horsewhip and scolded angrily.
The guide broke out in a cold sweat and explained: "Yang Dutong, we have indeed carefully investigated, this beacon tower has been built for many years, and after the Jin people possessed Hebei, it has been deserted, and no one has ever been sent to garrison ......"
"What the fuck are you quibbling? Am I blind? What is it that is not a person on top? "Yang Zaixing really wants to chōu him with a whip. It's just that Xu Wei repeatedly warned him not to whip the soldiers out of anger, so he endured it.
The guide looked again at the top of the mountain, and there were indeed people there, and there was more than one. But the strange thing is that if it was the eyes and ears of the Jin army, they had already discovered this cavalry unit condescendingly, and it was said that they should immediately light a beacon fire to warn Cizhou, why has there been no movement until now?
After looking at it for a while, he turned around and said, "Yang Dutong, the villain guesses that it may be the people in the mountains, otherwise, a beacon fire would have already been ignited." ”
Because of the distance, only people could be seen, and they couldn't see their faces clearly, so no one could be sure who it was. Yang Zaixing and Li Chengwei were speechless for a while when they heard this. The army is still moving forward, and it will not be difficult to stop the way it came and return at this time. But then again, this time the Western Army mobilized 100,000 troops alone, although there are only 8,000 horsemen here, but the other two soldiers and horses are foils, these 8,000 horses are the "main force".
"What do you think?" Undecided, Yang Zaixing asked the general.
Li Chengwei knew that he had a heavy responsibility, and whether to lead these eight thousand iron horsemen to glory or to suffocation was all in his thoughts. After thinking about it again and again, he said firmly: "Keep going." ”
"You have to think clearly." Although this order was very appetizing, Yang Zaixing still kindly reminded this comrade.
"I am the main general, and I bear the responsibility." Li Chengwei said loudly. He was not rash, as the guide said, if it was really the eyes and ears of the Jin Army, the beacon fire would have been ignited early.
The knights led their horses and continued to advance eastward on the road that did not count as roads, and to be honest, the hearts of the two generals hung in the air. They were always on the lookout for smoke rising from the direction of the beacon, but the map showed that they were only seven or eight miles away from the exit of Fukou, and there was still nothing unusual.
The terrain was getting wider and the road conditions were getting better and better, and the soldiers had re-mounted their horses and marched eastward as fast as they could. Strictly speaking, they have entered the border of Hebei, which is already where the Fushan Mountain Range is located. According to the map provided by Hedong, if you walk a few miles further, you will come out of the Fu Mountain, and the terrain will be cheerful, enough to make thousands of troops and horses gallop
The soldiers didn't know it, but the officers were already moving, and they couldn't help but caress the hilt of the war knife at their waist. There has been no war for several years, which makes these men who are engaged in conquest restless. And the significance of this trip made their blood boil since the beginning of the Song and Jin wars, the Jin army went south from Yanyun and trampled on the land of Hebei. Since then, the Hebei Plain has been a place for horses and horses, and the Song army has never made the slightest bargain on the land of Hebei except for the original pursuit of the remnants of the army to Zhending Mansion. Hebei Zhaofu Fuzhang led the army to abandon the Daimyo's mansion, cross the Yellow River, and enter Tokyo, which marked the complete withdrawal of the Song army from Hebei.
For so many years, the people of Hebei have been slaves to the country, and they have been forced to be the children of the puppet Han for a period of time. Maybe they have forgotten the official army, forgotten the Great Song Dynasty, and become numb under high pressure, it doesn't matter, we came back this time to announce to them that the period of recovery is not far away, yes, it is back, Hebei Daming's Mansion is where the Sangzi of our King Xujun is located
"Both of you are in charge, and if there are four miles away, we will go out of Fushan, if the map is accurate, when my troops go out of Fushan......" The general holding the map said this, and the smile on his face could not be concealed. Walking out of Fushan and looking at the clouds, it is the Hebei Plain
Yang Zaixing took a deep breath, held the reins in one hand and the handle of the knife in the other, and said through gritted teeth: "Tell me, who was the first to be unlucky?" ”
The general looked at the map and replied, "Handan."
A cruel smile flashed on Yang Zaixing's face: "I hope Handan's golden dog won't be too surprised to see us, and I will ......" At this point, he suddenly stopped, coughed twice to hide his embarrassment, and then turned his head and said, "Li Dutong, you come." ”
Li Chengwei laughed and shouted: "Pass my general's order, prepare for battle, target, Handan"
After leaving Fushan, there is only a distance of dozens of miles, and you can kill Handan. Eight thousand iron horsemen, it is advisable to take Handan, and then eat dinner Li Chengwei roared, turning the worries, anxiety, nervousness, and uneasiness that the soldiers had suppressed in their hearts into pride
