On the 28th day of the lunar month, a rare snowstorm fell in the whole territory of the Great Song Dynasty, and the snowflakes fell one after another, bringing a chill at the same time, but also enveloping the entire Great Song Dynasty. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Everywhere is covered in silver, the rivers are frozen like silver belts, and the lakes are frozen like silver plates, which is extremely beautiful.

On an unknown mountain, a troop came in the wind and snow, perhaps because of the fear of cold, the horses and feet of this troop were wrapped in horses, and the heads were wrapped, and even the broadswords were wrapped up and carried on the backs of the soldiers.

Along the way, there were soldiers who were so cold that they ran in place, so that their bodies would not be frozen.

Every once in a while, there was always a group of soldiers carrying wooden buckets and feeding the horses a scoop of hot water to drink, which made the soldiers on the horses drool with envy.

But this is also a helpless thing, it is not easy to boil water during the march, so naturally drink it close to the horses first to warm their bodies.

In times of war, many times the life of a horse is more important than a person!

After the troops passed, the wind and snow hit, and the scattered footprints were quickly covered by the snow, if someone saw this unit from a distance and chased after it, and saw that there were no footprints, they might think that they had encountered a Yin soldier.

This kind of weather is not suitable for traveling, because soldiers and horses may freeze to death. But it's also great for traveling, as it doesn't leave a trace, making it ideal for sneaking up on enemies.

As the sun began to set, the soldiers who had been on the road for a day had eaten simple food, and then they each found a sheltered place to set up their tents, and a group of people huddled together in one tent and fell asleep.

During the night, the wind and snow became heavier, and the snow soon covered the tent, and even the tent door could not be seen, and the tent became a hill at this time.

From a distance, these low and small earthen bags clearly look like grave bags in cemeteries.

After a night of silence, the second day soon came, and the soldiers lifted their tents, and a gust of wind and snow blew in, freezing everyone shivering, and it was not until a while later that the soldiers gradually got used to it.

Often at this time, when the soldiers find that someone has not gotten up, they quickly realize that the person has frozen to death.

Perhaps there were not a few people who froze to death, and because the soldiers were numb, the soldiers did not suffer, did not complain, but just tacitly carried their comrades out and found a place to bury them.

After breakfast, the team continued to march north.

And so on and so forth, and when it came to the thirtieth night of the lunar month, the soldiers were still resting and hurrying, hurrying to rest.

The difference is that on the thirtieth day of the lunar month, not only during the day, but also at night.

Rushing in the snow late at night, it is naturally very difficult, the soldiers can only walk for a while and run a few steps, and when they are tired of running, they stop and walk slowly, the only thing to be thankful for is that there are enough hot water pipes tonight, and everyone can go to drink a bowl when they feel cold.

When the hot water hit the stomach, many people screamed comfortably.

Until a wall suddenly appeared at the end of the road, all the soldiers immediately stopped their movements and lay on the ground and did not dare to make a sound.

At this moment, a man wrapped like a koala touched the front of the line, looked at the distant wall for a quarter of an hour, and finally waved his hand heavily.

The two teams of 2,000 men immediately broke away from the main force and quietly touched the wall in front of them, and when they reached the base of the wall, 4,000 men took off the rope behind them at the same time, and threw them out.

If you look closely, you can see that an iron claw is tied to the front of these ropes, and when these iron claws are thrown on the city wall, the soldiers pull hard, and the iron claw immediately grabs the city wall.

The soldiers took the belt hard, and when they found it very secure, they used their legs together and climbed to the top of the city wall.

It didn't take long for the first soldier to climb the wall, and when he looked around, there was no one on the wall, only a dim glow in the stone house in the distance.

Soon, all 4,000 soldiers climbed the city wall, and the soldiers immediately divided into two paths, one of which went to the stone house, and the other went down the steps and opened the gate.

As soon as the city gate was opened, the soldiers lurking in the distance suddenly rushed over, with the horse army in front and the infantry army behind, like a hornet.

But in the middle of the night, the wind howled, and no one could hear the slightest sign of the army's movement.

Half an hour later, the city fell into the hands of these soldiers, and all the people of the city were driven to the north of the city, where they were guarded by a thousand soldiers.

As for the soldiers who originally defended the city, they were all beheaded for public display.

After the dust settled, the sky gradually brightened, but the heavy snow continued, and the snow became deeper and deeper.

In the mansion of a wealthy merchant in the city, the leader of the besieging soldiers gathered together to enjoy the rare warmth, and laughter continued to be heard in the hall.

"Hahaha, General Yi Dechao really took precautions, calculated that the heavy snow closed the sky last night, and decisively led us to raid Shuozhou, in my opinion, we must be the first army in the Four Roads Army to capture the city."

"Yes, when the emperor talks about meritorious deeds, our super-great general will definitely be the first to make meritorious contributions."

"Oh, it's a shame that someone is still worried about this and that when they set off, it's really cowardly, and now that we've won a game, this person should be convinced now."

"Don't be rude." Suddenly, a powerful voice spoke.

After a while, another gentle voice said: "Generals, please don't blame, I was in poor health, and I have been on the road for so many days, and now I am top-heavy, so I will go down to rest first." ”

"Okay, Marquis Zhao is light." The mighty voice from before said.

"Thank you."

The door to the hall was pushed open, and three young men in their twenties stepped out, the leader paused slightly, tugged at his coat, and walked away quickly.

After the three of them left, a loud laugh suddenly erupted from the hall.

"This Zhao Gu is good at composing poems and lyrics, but when it comes to this war, it is just talking on paper."

"In my opinion, it's better to let him stay in Shuozhou, let's start tomorrow and go to lay down a few more cities."

"It's so good, so that he doesn't have to worry about this and that, who does he think he is? It's just a small joining the army, and it's just a matter of meeting a commander who doesn't understand military affairs, and when he meets our General Yi Dechao, where is he still talking. ”

In the end, it was still the mighty voice that said: "Then so be it, since he is in poor health, let him stay in Shuozhou to recuperate, and by the way, let him rectify the internal affairs of Shuozhou." Hmph, civil officials should do what civilian officials should do, don't think that you can lead troops to fight after suppressing bandits twice. ”

Next, another series of flattery came, and then the people in the room began to push the cups and change the lamps, so uncomfortable.
