When the meal was served, everyone lined up to receive their own food one by one under the watchful eye of the officers and men of the Jingbian Army. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

A flatbread larger than a sea bowl was handed over, and the bowl in his right hand stretched out, and a large spoonful of piping hot broth was poured out, and immediately a large bowl was full. In the thick broth, the meat pieces on it are clearly visible, and there are seasonings such as onions and garlic floating, and everyone is excited.

Some of them were restless and wanted to cut into the queue or rob others of their food, and the soldiers of the Jingbian Army who maintained discipline were mercilessly whipped with whips and beaten with military sticks, beating them crying and begging for mercy. Others laughed and laughed, all of them were in schadenfreude, and in front of the Jingbian Army Uncle, they still wanted to bully the weak? I don't look at the occasion, it's really self-inflicted.

In the laughter and laughter, all the people were strong, according to the same township and team, one by one to find a place to squat, snoring and gobbling up. Many people admired while eating, but they didn't expect to be able to live such a good life with the army.

Sun Sanjie led the generals of the baggage battalion to watch silently, seeing that everyone was full, with a wave of his hand, the camp's calligraphers praised the painting and calligraphy, and shouted: "It's started, it's started, and when you're full, hurry up and work, and there will be wages after the work." ”

"Work and work."

The leaders and deputies of each team also shouted one after another, and all the people and soldiers were full of food and content, and they all stood up and started work with enthusiasm.

Changling Mountain from the mountainside, has been with the construction drawings with lime sprinkled out of a white line, each team of people, under the leadership of the heavy battalion praise painting scribes, division of labor, responsible for their own convenience.

Most of the people who served in the service had a lot of strength, and everyone shouted the trumpet. Wield your own hoe and pickaxe. Keep digging trenches and digging hard. There are also people who carry dustpans and baskets, and those who carry the soil, and there are those who build walls. Using a plywood, the soil is thrown into the plate and rammed with a pestle. The sound of sacs continued, and the scene was in full swing.

Due to the division of labor and the division of labor, it is not allowed to move around smoothly, and the personnel of the Intelligence Department pay close attention, even if there are slaves and thieves working in it, Sun Sanjie is not worried, and he is not worried that the Changling Mountain defense line will be snooped on by slaves.

Due to the large number of workers, before the time of application, the entire mountain has been dug and repaired.

By this time. The arrangement on the mountain is carried out by the soldiers of the baggage battalion, so there is no need for these people to be strong.

They were paid. Ate dinner early. All of them were sent away, which made the construction workers extremely regretful. I can't wait to work a few more days.

On the same day, the defense line of Changling Mountain was basically set up, Wang Dou expressed satisfaction after inspection, this is a place more terrifying than the Julu defense line, if the slave attacks the mountain, he will make this place a meat grinder, let them shed the last drop of blood!

On the second day, Hong Chengchou, the governor of Jiliao, led a huge number of officials and generals to Changling Mountain, and they were all startled, is this still Changling Mountain? I haven't seen it for a day, Changling Mountain has become like this, this kind of defense line is too terrifying, right?

But I saw ......

The trees and weeds of the entire mountain are all cleared, so that the view of the mountain up and down is extremely clear.

Began to go up from the foot of the mountain, this mountain, it seems to become more gentle, the road is better, everyone at first did not understand what is going on, isn't it convenient for the enemy to attack?

According to everyone's opinion, the hillside should be as rugged as possible, right? Hong Chengchou also didn't ask clearly, and Wang Dou explained that this was to let the Tartars gather troops as much as possible in this mountainous area, so that the artillery on the mountain could better concentrate on killing and wounding.

Everyone collectively sighed, and then a chill surged in their hearts, and the first reaction of those who didn't understand was that they thought that the hillside was gentle, which was convenient for their own attack. Naturally, heavy troops were deployed on this slope, but they did not expect to become the target of the artillery on the mountain.

Although this kind of psychology is simple, it is very vicious, and it is really a thought of heaven and a thought of hell. …,

Then when you reach the mountainside, the slope is not easy to walk, and there are deep trench traps everywhere, and under the trench, there are sharp wooden thorns, which make people feel cold, and if they fall, they will definitely become meat skewers.

Moreover, these trench traps are quite cleverly disguised, with a gentle low wall or mound in front of them, so that the view is not clear from behind, but the consequences of jumping over are ......

And what's even more poisonous is that these trench traps are all serial sets, jumping over one and another, sometimes seven or eight in a row, and if you don't fall to death, you will die of exhaustion.

These trench traps, which are still irregular, zigzag between the various slopes, make the slopes extremely difficult to navigate. If you cover with a shield car, it is really in vain, the front is not, the retreat is not, the left is not, the right is not, if you don't dig up countless low walls, don't fill in the immeasurable trenches, don't think about forcing to the front.

Looking at the cleverly camouflaged, but deeply frightening trench, as well as the sharp wooden thorns below, except for Yang Guozhu, he was arrogant and arrogant Bai Guangen, the chief soldier of Jizhen Town, and subconsciously stayed away from Wang Dou, this guy is too vicious, who are the people under his command? I also came up with this kind of ghost idea, not a human being.

Of course, if the slopes are full of traps and trenches, it will be difficult for the enemy to enter and it will be difficult for the enemy to get out, and this will violate the principle of fighting while defending the Jingbian army, so the slopes in the southeast and northeast of Changling Mountain will each leave five flat passages to enter and exit.

Ten passages, each about twenty paces wide, led from the bottom of the hill to the mountainside, without any obstacles, which facilitated the enemy's attack, and also made them crowd into a crowd and made them a good target for the shooters. It can be guarded with the least number of troops, but the greatest results can be obtained, and if the soldiers of the Jingbian Army attack, they can also attack from the ten passages.

This was the arrangement in front of the first wave of low wall trenches, and when we reached the first low wall, we saw that the front was suddenly steep. It can be seen that this section of the hillside has obviously been transformed, and it has been cut into a slope shape along the mountain from north to east and from south to west.

On the slope, a low wall stands tall, about the height of each person's chest, but it is very thick, and the soldiers behind the low wall can rely on the low wall to shoot at the targets in front of them.

Even the slope has a low wall, the wall is about two zhang high, there is a deep large trench in front of the low wall, and there are two small trenches in front of it. The big trench is one zhang deep, one zhang wide, the small trench is half a zhang deep, half a zhang wide, the trench is placed under the sharp wooden thorns, the front end of the wooden thorns has been roasted with fire, and the sharp and hard are incomparable.

Three trenches, two steps apart, on the ground in between. They are all placed in layers of wolf's tooth and strange stones. The sharp barbs on it have to be devoured by people.

The day before yesterday, Wang Dou said that every three low walls and trenches were a wave of defense, and every time the captives attacked a low wall. They had to face a fierce blow from the upper and lower fires, and everyone didn't understand how to strike. At this time, I was startled when I saw it, and my ears were empty. Seeing is believing, seeing the real scene, I understand what Wang Dou is talking about.

Far from being as shocking as he had seen with his own eyes, he saw that there was another slope not far behind the low wall, and there was a wall on the slope (of course, there was no ditch in front of the wall), and then there was a slope, and then there was a low wall. Three low walls, along the mountain. One is taller than the other, and the other stands in front of everyone's eyes.

Looking at the three slopes and low walls, everyone understood what it meant to go up and down. Three-dimensional fire strike.

At this time, the Jingbian Army's baggage battalion had been stationed in Changling Mountain. Look at them solemnly and neatly, and they look very strong. Such a warrior will definitely not be afraid and will not retreat in a bloody battle. Among them was a firebolt with a thick, finely crafted bird's gun, imagining them shooting from three low walls at once...... Everyone couldn't help but gasp.

Everyone guessed that even if they led the army to attack, their first reaction was to watch and force the first low wall, and deal with the attack of the soldiers behind the low wall.

But I didn't expect that the soldiers with two low walls on their heads were looking at themselves coldly, aiming at themselves from their heads with their sharp birds, and they really couldn't take care of the top, and they couldn't take care of the bottom, and then from time to time they threw a million enemies or a gray bottle to bounce down, it was creepy to think about. …,

Everyone was impressed, the layout in front of them alone seemed simple, but when you think about it carefully, it is quite extraordinary. Among them, along with the generals and generals, there are those who think that they are outstanding in defending the village, but the defense strategy in their hearts is compared with the defense system in front of them, how can it be worse than Lixu?

It seems that Uncle Zhong Yong was conservative the day before yesterday, just attacking these three low walls, I am afraid that the thieves will die and 20,000 people will not be able to attack.

Wang Pu, the chief soldier of Datong, Fu Yingchong, the deputy general of the former battalion of the Shenji Battalion, inhaled with his mouth open, and Cao Bianjiao, the chief soldier of the Oriental Association, and Wang Tingchen, the chief soldier of the former Tun Guard, exchanged their heads and ears excitedly, and decided that after going back, Wudaoling's own defense line would also be arranged in Changling Mountain.

Hong Chengchou looked at the two sides of the passage in front of him and groaned, the passage was like an open dark mouth, and there were two convex wall arches not far from the left and right. It is conceivable that if the slave attacks this passage, he will have to face the flank blows of fire from both ends, and with artillery, this passage is a place that devours flesh and blood.

Moreover, the front end of the convex wall is sharp, and there is not even a dead corner like a horse's face. There are several low walls in front of you, all of which are concave and convex, like a complex gear pattern, which is quite different from the traditional four-sided defense line of Daming City.

All the officers and generals were amazed by this kind of defense, and each of them entered the inner middle through the passage, and walked a few steps to the right, into the second low wall, and then to the left more than ten steps, and after entering the third low wall, it was a relatively gentle slope, about dozens of steps wide.

Here, some busy sergeants are building many neat little houses out of stone, which serve as a garrison and resting place for soldiers.

However, what everyone did not understand was that in front of each house, on the roof, there were dense piles of dirt bags, as well as many dustpans and baskets, also filled with dirt, and stacked in rows in the open space.

The crowd didn't understand what this meant, and Wang Dou explained that it was to prevent the Hongyi cannon from ricocheting.

Everyone collectively sighed, many people's eyes gurgled and turned, and the soil bags and baskets contained soil, which could prevent ricocheting? Uncle Zhong Yong has let everyone gain insight again.

The group continued to march, and behind the slope was a low wall of a trench, the same as the previous line of defense.

After three waves in a row, when we reached the top of the mountain, I saw a fort under construction, which was built on a rocky protrusion and had a wide field of vision, from which you could see the whole mountain.

Then everyone went to the top of the mountain, the top of Changling Mountain is quite wide and long, and there are some ups and downs, which are composed of several small mountains, so it is called Changling Mountain. Here, around the front and back of the fire road pier, many soldiers of the Jingbian Army's baggage battalion are busy building the walled city.

Everyone exhaled, and finally saw the fortifications they were familiar with...... However, it seems to be different.

The walled cities, walled walls, walled gates, and residences of the Jingbian Army are mostly built with large pieces of solid mountain stones, and the walled walls seem to be concave and convex, and towers are still being built at intervals, and it is expected that multiple strikes of crossfire will be formed.

However, this project is huge, and it will not be completed in a moment and a half, but fortunately, the front defense line is completed, and the city wall in the rear can be calm.

In the main village, many granaries will also be built as a place for the Jingbian army to store grain.

Looking at the huge planning of those granaries, it seems that they can hoard a lot of grain and grass. For a time, Hong Chengchou, the governor of Jiliao, Qiu Minyang, the governor of Liaodong, Zhang Ruoqi, the superintendent and others, all moved their minds, the defense line of Changling Mountain is so strong, and it is very good to accumulate a part of the grain here.

At last they reached the northeastern part of the mountain, where there were also many low ditches that followed the river to the northwest side of the mountain. On the northwest side, according to the topography, several stone walls were built, and if the enemy climbed up from there and was hit by the soldiers left behind, he would either be killed or fall to death.

Looking at the entire defense line of Changling Mountain one by one, looking at the unrecognizable mountains, everyone didn't know what to feel in their hearts. …,

In a short period of time, this mountain has become a terrifying and treacherous place, and it is certain that if the slaves and thieves attack this place, they will want to cry without tears and shed blood.

Everyone has a feeling that with the rise of Zhongyongbo, the future strategy and tactics of the Ming Dynasty are becoming more and more different.

……

The defense line of Changling Mountain has been unanimously appreciated by all the patrol officers, not only the officers and generals, but everyone believes that this place is impregnable and will become an important guarantee for guarding the back road. Wudaoling and other places can be used to prevent their own places and set up a walled defense line.

On the 26th, Cao Bianjiao, the chief soldier of the ASEAN Association, and the new army under the command of Wang Tingchen, the former commander of the Tun Guard, stayed behind in Wudaoling.

The two commanders-in-chief, Liu Zhaoji, the commander-in-chief of Liaodong, cooperated with Dou Chenglie, the general of the general patrol and meritorious service, Zheng Yilin, the deputy general of Xingshan Road, and more than 20,000 defenders of Liaodong, stationed in the inner and outer periphery of Xingshan Fort, Daxing Fort, and Dongqingbao, and together with the Jingbian Army of Changling Mountain, they guarded the back road for the reinforcement army.

Cao Bianjiao and Wang Tingchen, in Wudaoling, also recruited a large number of people to dig trenches and build walls, according to the topography, imitating the actions of Changling Mountain. For this reason, the Jingbian Army's baggage battalion supported the two commanders and many talents, surveying the terrain and drawing drawings for them.

Subsequently, a large number of people and soldiers came and went, breaking ground in various places in Wudaoling. The Qing army seemed to be aware of the Ming army's move, and the scout cavalry continued to come to harass, and the two sides launched a reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance war.

The Ming army sentry cavalry reported that the slaves and thieves were on the north bank of the Daughter River, which was more than ten miles away from Wudaoling, and it seemed that they were also building a large number of buildings, and there seemed to be a major conspiracy.

Due to the fact that the slave cavalry flooded both sides of the river, it was difficult for the Ming army sentry cavalry to approach, and there was no specific intelligence result.

On July 29, the 14th year of Chongzhen, the road back was decided.

On the same day, Hong Chengchou, the governor of Jiliao, Zhang Ruoqi, the superintendent of the army, Wang Chengen, the general of the conquest, Wang Dou, the loyal and brave uncle, Yang Guozhu, the chief soldier of Xuanfu, Wang Pu, the chief soldier of Datong, Zuo Guangxian, the chief soldier of Shanhaiguan, Ma Ke, the chief soldier of Jizhen, Bai Guangen, the chief soldier of Miyun, Tang Tong, the deputy general of the former battalion of the Shenji battalion, Fu Yingchong, the infantry and artillery army, all the army, and forced to Songshan.

The Ming army was extremely prosperous, including Li Fuming, the chief soldier of Shanxi, who was in Songshan at this time, and Wu Sangui, the general soldier of Ningyuan, who had a large army of 150,000 people, and the vast number of men and horses, seemed to reach the edge of the sky.
