"Beihu Tian, the wind is like a knife. The snow is flying, and the trail is submerged. Over the years, who is with me, with half a life of soldiers, painted a vast life. The side plug burns the beacon fire, and the side of the Yin Mountain is chaotic. The eagle bow swept through the sky, and the bloody battle broke thousands of troops.

The battle song, and the son. When the dawn of the east adds color to the mountains and rivers, I turn blood into ink. The battle song, and the son. When the dawn of the east is colored, it is said that a hundred generations of passers-by, and I will write a book.

If the destiny of heaven, the marching warrior. Stay in Shaohua and pay for the war. Rejuvenate the country, take responsibility for the husband, fulfill the promise of life and death, and wrap yourself in horse leather. Drinking spirits, semi-turbid, the same hatred of Jin Ge. The wolf is like yesterday, and the green mound is buried with a flag.

The battle song, and the son. When the dawn of the east adds color to the mountains and rivers, I turn blood into ink. The battle song, and the son. When the dawn of the east is colored, it is said that a hundred generations of passers-by, and I will write a book. ”

……

This heart-wrenching and long-lasting "Battle Song" floated over Feiyun Castle, the largest fort in the western part of Beihai Prefecture.

On weekdays, this is just a lyrical work of "the old man chatting about juvenile madness".

But now, outside Feiyun Castle, the flames of war are pervasive, and the turbidity waves are monstrous. Countless remnants of the Horseman's Cracked Armor fell on the blood-soaked ground. The whining war horse was still turning over and could no longer get up from the master, a few jackals from nowhere tore the corpse under the hard armor, hearing the horse's roar, immediately raised the wolf's head, and the red eyes soaked in death suddenly carried a ferocious aura, looking at the horse that was still screaming......

"Fight the song, and make peace with the son. Hehe, it's a wonderful word! Shen Yuanrang, I, Ma Xianyu, have always only been convinced of Zhuge Nanshan's attainments in poetry, but today, it seems that you are indeed better than Brother Nanshan in this. ”

On the towering but scarred fortress wall of Feiyun Castle, Ma Gu Ma Xianyu smiled miserably at Shen Yun.

This miserable laugh made Shen Yun feel close to each other. Look at the blood stains on the two of them that haven't dried up. And the missing cavalry knife in his hand, the broken armor - what a tragic word?!

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

This Ma Gu was naturally Shen Yun's classmate when he was in the emperor's time. After graduating from Imperial University, the students went their separate ways. However, Ma Gu, Lu Zhen and Zhuge Yun were as good as wearing a pair of pants, and when they separated, Ma Gu and Lu Zhen were limited to a family of military generals and had to enlist in the army for a few years, but Zhuge Yun, who originally planned to return to his hometown in Yizhou to start from a civilian job, gave up his pen and joined the imperial army under the persuasion of Ma Gu.

Of course, the three of them could not have been assigned to the same army. After the training camp, Zhuge Yun was arranged to Shuozhou Wei. Ma Gu was placed in Feiyun Castle in Beihai Prefecture and became a small second lieutenant company commander. However, Lu Zhen, because of his strong physique, was selected by the trap guards as soon as the training camp ended, and directly entered the first-class army.

Originally, Ma Gu thought it was good to come to Beihai Prefecture. No matter how you put it, it's a place of border stops. Moreover, Feiyun Fort is located at the northern foot of Jinshan, although it is a frontier. But there are still thousands of miles away from the real side plug. There is simply no danger at all. At most, it is to endure hardships for a few years, and then even if you get out of it - for a child of a family like him, staying in the border for a few years is more affordable than being a soldier in other privileged places for a few years, after all, military merit is supernatural.

But Ma Gu didn't expect that there would be a thunder on the flat ground, starting from the beginning of winter last year. The entire Beihai Prefecture is full of wolf smoke. Since the fall of Dingbian Mansion, Feiyun Castle has been a surprise. From time to time, the cavalry of the Yue clan went south from the north, and even plundered the surroundings of Feiyun Castle. As a Han army, protect one side. The people were harassed, and the Han army had the duty to go into battle to drive the enemy. But when it came to driving the enemy, the Han army of Feiyun Fort fell into great embarrassment again.

Feiyun Fort is located in the later Mongolian Altai City, adjacent to the Zabkhan River in the north, Jinshan Forest in the west, and Bayanchagan Sandy Land in the south.

Let's put it this way, the three places of Jiankun City, Dingbianfu and Feiyunbao are the three base points of the western part of Beihai Prefecture, and the surrounding areas surrounded by these three points can be regarded as the densely populated areas of the western part of Beihai Prefecture. Although the winters are cold, the other three seasons are rich in water and grass, which is perfect for grazing. Its importance to Beihai Prefecture is as important as Yanjing to the Central Plains and Dunhuang to Ganliang. Once the enemy occupies these three points, Beihai Prefecture will lose half of it - far to the northeast, Kulen, its coverage is simply not enough to reach here. Kulen is the base point of the defense due north, on the line of Lake Baikal, not here.

In the past, Jiankun City, Dingbian Phu and Feiyun Fort each had a garrison of one legion. But because Feiyun Fort is a large fort, it has fort walls and battlements. And Jiankun City and Dingbian Fu are Xinzhou cities and have no city walls, so in order to save military expenses and focus on external and internal considerations, there will generally be a half-legion garrison in Jiankun City in the northernmost part of Jiankun City, then a legion in Dingbianfu, and finally Feiyun Fort - a division!

When Jiankun and Dingbian were lost, Feiyun Fort was the first to receive the news, but at this time, Feiyun Fort was already powerless - the entire Feiyun Fort said that there was a division, but there was only one brigade left!

Feiyun Castle is also known as Feiyun Guard, and its legion is naturally called Feiyun Legion. The palace marshal's surname is Gui, but he is not in Feiyun Castle at the moment - Feiyun Wei belongs to the jurisdiction of Dingbian Mansion, so he usually lives in Dingbian Mansion. And this Guidian Marshal died in battle as early as when the Yue-Hun coalition army attacked Dingbian Province - before he died, he also issued an order to transfer troops and transferred most of the troops from Feiyunwei, resulting in only one brigade of Feiyunwei stationed now.

So at this moment, the real master of Feiyun Castle is actually a brigade commander, surnamed Lin Mingmin, and the word Hanlin.

Looking at the name, he is a gentleman Shilin's child, and looking at himself is even more anxious - this Lin Hanlin is really a fucking Hanlin look, with little flesh on his body, leaning on his back, coughing three times when he says two words, and the whole person looks like a tuberculosis ghost, saying that he is only thirty-seven years old, but he looks almost the same as an old man who is about to die.

In fact, this Lin Hanlin is just a person of great luck. His ancestors are from Beihai Prefecture, and his father, Lin Hu, is a captain officer of Feiyunwei. His parents hoped that he would be motivated in his studies and that he would be admitted to university so that he could get ahead, so he named him Lin Hanlin. didn't expect this Lin Hanlin to be unable to read, and he still liked to be a gentleman. In the end, I didn't get into college, so I had to go to the army. His father took pity on him, so he begged Shangguan to let Lin Hanlin stay in Feiyunwei as a soldier and not send him elsewhere.

Generally speaking, the conscription system in the new state will be more relaxed, and who will let this be a border place that the people of the old state do not want to come to. So Lin Hanlin easily stayed in Feiyunwei.

This Lin Hanlin's luck is still good. Several times when the Han army went north to conquer the Xiongnu, they had to draw grain and grass from Feiyunwei and levy servants. Lin Hanlin also took advantage of the easy work of escorting grain and grass to get a few military exploits. Five years ago, after his father's death, he also became a captain in Flying Cloud Castle.

The imperial military merit was difficult to take, there were few generals, and the promotion of low-level officers was naturally slow. However, Lin Hanlin caught up with the good season, that is, the weather has been extremely cold in recent years, and the Xiongnu ethnic groups in the extreme north cannot continue, so they can only frequently invade the south to survive. There are a few times. The Huns' ranger outpost even ran to the vicinity of Feiyun Castle. This Lin Hanlin has no power to tie the chicken, and it is impossible to fight, but his father's robes were all veterans in the army during his lifetime, and he easily took the heads of these rangers to report. Lin Hanlin also took this opportunity to be promoted to the school level!

After that, the Yue-Hun coalition army moved south, and Feiyunwei received an order to support Dingbian Province. The remaining brigade originally had a brigade commander surnamed Hua, but how did you know that this brigade commander was a Han general who liked to charge ahead—in fact. Many Han generals shared this concept - they heard that there was a war in Dingbian Province. He left the soldiers in Feiyunwei and rushed with the other teams. Lin Hanlin is also a major rank, so it is so logical to become the brigade commander of Feiyunwei!

However, after becoming a brigade commander, Lin Hanlin's good luck seemed to run out. The Hungarian army besieged Dingbian Phu, and then a large force of cavalry moved south along the Zabkhan River. The area around Feiyun Castle is also a land of abundant water and grass, and there are many Han horse wranglers grazing here to make a living. And in order to cover up the traces and plunder the winter baggage, these Yueshi people are killing all the way. Forcefully tossed the noisy Feiyunwei to the ten rooms and nine emptiness. The corpse rests on its back.

At first, Lin Hanlin still wanted to protect the territory and the people, so he sent a few veterans left by his father to lead the troops into battle, but after being killed by the Yue clan and sending the head to the castle wall. Lin Hanlin was frightened, ordered the fort gate to be closed, and never dared to fight again.

The people of the Yue Clan swaggered past under Feiyun Castle and carried out their arrangement. Of course, in order to cover their whereabouts, they also pretended to "return north" from under the noses of the defenders of Feiyun Castle, but in fact, they secretly went back to the Jinshan Forest to hide. So when the Northern Frontier Front arrived and asked about the enemy's movements, Lin Hanlin gave the information: "The enemy has all returned north, and there is no enemy army in the three hundred miles around Feiyun Fort!" ”

Fart, three hundred miles, before the Northern Frontier Front came, the Feiyun Guard defenders had not even been out of the surrounding three miles, and it was still three hundred miles.

Four legions, nearly 100,000 Yue's people hide in the Jinshan forest for the winter, every day must be roasted fire, but also cooking, not to mention the thick smoke, the sound of killing is even more shocking when the drill training. According to common sense, Feiyun Castle only needs to send out ranger scouts, and you will find out if you scout casually.

But Lin Hanlin was so frightened that he didn't dare to send someone out to inspect at all, and he called it "pity the lives of soldiers". This also made the Yue's army, which was originally frightened and afraid that the Han army would find out where they were hiding, was pleasantly surprised.

In fact, in order to guard against the ranger scouts of Feiyun Castle, Rovinis had made countless arrangements before, such as letting the soldiers hide a few miles away from Feiyun Castle, scouting the movements of the Han army, and then sending people to gather and annihilate them.

But after a winter, Feiyunwei didn't have a single reconnaissance except for daily chores such as someone coming out to dump dung buckets every day. On the contrary, it was the severe cold of winter that caused dozens of Yueshi people who detected the movements of the Han army to freeze to death...... Such a ridiculous practice is simply laughable.

It was also Lin Hanlin's news that made the Northern Frontier Front relax its vigilance against the Jinshan Forest west of Feiyun Castle, so that the tragedy of the Third Army being besieged occurred.

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Of course, these things were only exposed one by one later. And when the remnants of the Third Army ran wild for a day and a night and arrived at Feiyun Castle, this Lin Hanlin had already been promoted to the rank of lieutenant colonel and became a veritable brigade commander, the supreme commander of Feiyun Castle!

On the castle wall, Shen Yun looked at the sun that was gradually sinking in the west, and looked at the tragic situation of the corpses under the castle wall, and his heart was extremely heavy.

"Xianyu-kun, it's been a month! Are you sure there will be reinforcements coming? Shen Yun said quietly.

Yes, it's been a month. At this time, it was already June of 1003 of the Han Dynasty.

In June, the vast Zabkhan River meandered east of Feiyun Castle, and the wind blew in the dusk, bringing with it a thick stench of corpses. Everywhere you look, there are corpses that have not had time to be buried, broken spears, and military flags full of holes...... The entire Ten Miles Around Feiyun Castle was already a dead silence!

And now in the Flying Cloud Castle. There are only the original Feiyun Castle defenders and the remnants of the Special Editing Department, and the total number of people is only two thousand six hundred and twenty-eight! Among them, there are still 416 surviving people in the special compilation department, and the rest are Feiyunwei's Han army!

What about the others?

"Huh, reinforcements?" Ma Gu pointed to the city where the corpses were piled up, and laughed miserably: "If there are reinforcements, will these Yue Clan dog thieves surround Feiyun Castle for so long?" No, haha, no! No reinforcements! I will wait for the dawn in the east to add a few more loyal souls to this magnificent mountain and river! ”

After laughing miserably. Ma Gu had already staggered around and walked slowly under the fort wall, still singing in his mouth: "Battle song, make peace with the son...... The green mound is buried with a flag, and the flag is covered! Hahahaha! ”

Seeing Ma Gu was close to madness. Shen Yun became more and more silent. Looking at the sunset that was about to be engulfed in the distance, he stood silent. It's like a statue looking to the West - there. It is the direction in which reinforcements will come half a month ago!

Time flashes back a month ago. When Hou Jian arrived at Feiyun Fort with the Third Legion, the Fourth and Fifth Legions also arrived. These two corps of pure infantry were building defensive lines on the Zabkhan River and Feiyun Fort.

The Third Legion, which had broken through the bloody battle, was overjoyed to see the friendly troops in Paoze. Under the orders of the three corps commanders, Lin Hanlin also opened the gate of the fort and let the remnants of the third corps of more than 10,000 people enter the fort to rest.

Then there is a five-day recuperation period. The news of the breakthrough of the Third Army and the loss of a large number of baggage was also reported to Hu Gong.

Until this time. Only then did the Northern Frontier Front officially converge. It also built a huge defensive ring from Kobdo-Kyrgyz Lake in the north, Feiyunbao to Jinshan Forest in the south, Jinshan Gobi to the northern foot of Jinshan in the west, and Baidraghe River to Ertegan in the east. The whole area is 800 miles!

Outside this defensive circle. To the west is Jinshan, and at the southern foot of Jinshan is the Dihua-Tarim Basin, which is the range of the Yueshi people. To the north was the Moon-Hungarian coalition, and to the east and south were the envelopes of the Legion of the Six Months.

It should be said that the Yue's campaign to annihilate the Northern Frontier Front of the Han Dynasty has just begun.

Of course, the situation was quite unfavorable for the Han army. The first problem is grain and grass, and the grain and grass reserves of each regiment are distributed according to wartime, which is only enough for the sergeants to eat for half a month. The entire western part of Beihai Prefecture has long been combed by the Moon-Hungarian coalition army in the winter, like a fence, and there is not much supply at all, the only thing that can be obtained is the horses and lambs that have lost weight seriously provided by the Han wranglers - it is foreseeable that the Han wranglers who have not had a good winter this winter will find it difficult to survive the next winter without assistance.

Then there is the weight of weapons. A large part of the Han army's baggage was in the Third Army Corps, and the arrows and weapons that the entire army still had were far from enough to fight a war of attrition. Of course, in view of the fact that Hou Jian burned a large part of the baggage, the situation of the Yueshi people must not be optimistic.

And finally, the message. Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one not be defeated. The news of the siege of the Northern Frontier Front must be sent back to the imperial capital immediately, and what to do with the imperial capital is not something that Hu Gong should be concerned about. In the news, Hu Gong did not say anything for help. But now that the army is surrounded and the war is about to break out, it is inevitable that the news will be cut off by the Yue's rangers.

Relying on the Dark Guard? Come on, the Dark Guards are also people, and they have to pass through enemy lines to deliver the news!

In the face of this bad situation, on May 7, 1003, that is, the fifth day of the retreat of the Third Army to Feiyun Fort, Hu Gong issued a new military order: the Third Army and the Fourth Army assisted in the defense of Feiyun Fort, and the Fifth Army went out of the Baidragh River to wait for an opportunity to find the enemy in a decisive battle with the First Brigade of the Flying Cavalry.

On 10 May, Hu Gongxin's military order came down again, and Hou Jian, the commander of the Third Army Corps, immediately rushed to the marshal's camp in the upper reaches of the Zabkhan River with his capable soldiers.

It is also tragic to say, of the more than 10,000 surviving members of the Third Legion, only more than 7,000 can still fight. It also includes a special edition of more than 2,000 people. In view of the fact that many people in the first battalion of the first song of the special compilation department were men and horses of the original guard brigade, when they arrived at Feiyun Fort, they were naturally built under the command of Hou Jian, so the special compilation department was reduced to more than 1,200 people.

Zhang Mo became the battalion commander of forty-four people again! Oh, it's forty-three, and one more robes died on the way to the breakout......

Perhaps considering that he would inevitably accept punishment when he went to the marshal's camp this time, Hou Jian did not bring the special editing department. However, Xu Dong took the opportunity to report the battle situation to the marshal, and insisted on following Hou Jian to the marshal's camp - in fact, Xu Dong wanted to transfer back to Hu Gong's side, but he couldn't find a reason, and wanted to take this opportunity to discuss with the robe of Dianmu beside Hu Gong.

Hou Jian asked Baili Shu to ask Shen Yun if he wanted to go to the marshal's camp together, but Shen Yun refused. The reason is that he met Ma Gu here, and Ma Gu, this kid, seems to be chasing Yan Ruyue and is a little "eyeing Zhou Hui". Zhou Hui, the little girl, is even more afraid of the chaos in the world, and she doesn't want to expose her identity to rely on Hu Gong for protection - it is said that when she broke through that night, everyone was shocked and scared, only Zhou Hui looked excited, and secretly found Shen Yun afterwards and kept complaining that there were not enough enemies!

So Hou Jian rushed to the marshal's camp 300 miles away with 6,000 soldiers and more than 1,000 lightly wounded soldiers.

"Poor thing, a regimental commander has just become a brigade commander!" When Zhong Lisi said goodbye to Xu Dong, he sighed pretendically.

But soon, Zhong Lisi was not complacent.

On May 15, 1003 in the Han Dynasty, the Yueshi people suddenly attacked, and actually wiped out the rear division of the Fourth Army stationed in the Jinshan Forest - it was a fire attack!

Speaking of which, this is also one of the many tragedies caused by Lin Hanlin.

The Fourth Army camped its rear division in the Jinshan Forest as a reserve, while the main defensive direction was on the plains south of Feiyun Castle. But no one knew that more than 100,000 people of the Yue clan had lived in this forest for a whole winter, and they had long been familiar with the terrain here, and it seemed that they had long expected that the Han army would be stationed here, and buried the oil in advance......

Just a surprise attack, the Yue's army of more than 2,000 people was wiped out in the Jinshan forest, the raging fire burned for three days and three nights, and the sound of the Han army's tragic death and wailing resounded in the sky! Not one in ten escapees!

More than 30,000 people of the Fourth Legion of the Han Dynasty suddenly went to one-third, and this kind of blow can be regarded as unprecedented!

The details of the battle are no longer available, because the Yue's army, which went to attack the Han army, was also killed and wounded in the later battle, leaving no record at all. And Rovinis's report only said that the oil had been buried in advance.

In any case, after the Third Army, the Fourth Army of the Han Army also suffered heavy losses. After that, the Yueshi began the fiercest land offensive against the Fourth Legion...... This dozen will be fought until the fifth day of the first month of June! The Fourth Legion was almost completely annihilated, and those who did not die also retreated into Feiyun Castle! This caused the corpses outside Feiyun Castle to sit on their backs, which was unbearable, like a hell on earth!

This "Battle Song" was also suddenly remembered by Shen Yun when he watched the Han army outside the fort forgetting life and death and fighting hard. It was only chanted once, but it was remembered by Zhou Hui, and then it spread in the army. At first, it was still to inspire the morale of the army, but later the Han army died more and more, and this song, which was originally sung by female voices, began to permeate the Han army camp with a stream of sadness! (To be continued......)

PS: "Battle Song" is very good! Although the recommended game is not very good, this song is good. Listen to it!

Then, it's still a routine vote request!
