Ask for collections, ask for recommendations! Thank you very much for your collection and recommendation!
………………………
Due to the rain some time ago, the top of the inner platform of the beacon tower did not place wolf dung, for fear of being wet, the most important thing is that during this time, the border is peaceful, so the top of the inner platform is not placed wolf dung. Now it is necessary to carry wolf dung to the top of the inner platform of the beacon tower. However, if people carry wolf dung up, they will naturally make a mistake.
Liu Fang saw Zhang Biwu with an expectant face below, and at this time, Qin Dongsheng also appeared next to Zhang Biwu, so he ordered loudly: "Zhang Biwu, Qin Dongsheng, quickly use an orange tree to raise the wolf dung to the top of the inner platform!" ”
"Yes!" Zhang Biwu gave a military salute forcefully, but Liu Fang was taken aback, what kind of excitement is this kid? If you start a war, your life will be lost! Hide if you can! Do you still want to fight? Nerve! This is Liu Fang's idea, the lack of martial spirit of soldiers is common in the Ming army.
After Liu Fangyi came into contact with Zhang Biwu's gaze, he was shocked, these eyes were full of longing, and infinite fighting spirit, as a soldier who had lost his spirit for a long time, he should have fearless eyes, how could he regain it in the body of a stupid boy?
Zhang Biwu happily chanted: "Ascend!" Ignite the beacon fire! Lala! "Huh?" Qin Dongsheng is stupid, Zhang Biwu's performance is too unusual, right? The enemy is coming, it is not a good thing for the border guards, and he is still excited like this?
Zhang Biwu brought the basket filled with wolf dung, and when he saw Qin Dongsheng still staring at him stupidly, he reminded: "Brother Qin, what are you doing?" Raise the wolf dung to the top of the inner stage! Otherwise, Brother Liu will be angry! ”
Qin Dongsheng came to his senses, and he nodded: "Okay!" Zhang Biwu and Qin Dongsheng used orange trees to lift the wolf dung in the basket to the stage.
In the process of Zhang Biwu using the orange tree, he also repeated: "Burn the beacon fire!" Raise your eyebrows and get ahead! Zhang Biwu saw that Qin Dongsheng was stunned, and his strength over there couldn't keep up with him, so Zhang Biwu shouted: "Hurry up!" Qin Dongsheng smiled bitterly and had no choice but to comply.
A basket of wolf dung quickly rose to the top of the inner platform of the beacon tower, Liu Fang is basket to mention, and then put it on the inner table, he has prepared the wolf dung, sulfur, saltpeter, etc., and has to observe the outside to see how many enemies, according to the regulations depending on the number of enemies and put the beacon and cannon.
The dust was flying, and unfortunately, the enemy appeared on the pier where Zhang Biwu was! Zhang Biwu has been paying attention to the situation outside, and he was the first to find out.
Zhang Biwu was excited, although the enemy was just a small dot in his eyes, but this little bit caused ripples in Zhang Biwu's heart.
Zhang Biwu thought to himself: "Okay! That's great! If I want to be successful, I must first kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions! I'm going to kill these enemies!" But I'll have to inform the others! You can't take care of yourself, after all, we are the pawns of the same pier, and we have to pay attention to the group! ”
Zhang Biwu thought about it like this, and naturally shouted at Liu Da on the inner stage: "Brother Liu, be careful!" The Golden Tartar is coming! ”
Liu Fang knew how many enemy soldiers there were, and no matter how dangerous it was, he had to light the wolf smoke and light the beacon fire to warn. If the enemy is less than 100 men, he will be given one shot according to the regulations.
The wolf smoke that is lit rises straight into the air, and even if the wind blows, the wolf smoke cannot be easily blown off.
Every five miles, a pier platform is lit up one after another, looking down on the earth from the sky, the pier platform where the wolf smoke rises is unusually magnificent. And the sound of artillery is one after another, one after another.
The beacon is up! The battle is on! The first to attack was the aggressor. The Tartar cavalry of the Jin Kingdom fired arrows at the pier together. The "Xiu Xiu Xiu" arrows poured like rain, causing Liu Fang and Lu Rongzhe to run down in a hurry, as long as they hid in the room, they didn't have to be harmed.
The arrows hit the outer wall of the beacon tower and the wall of the inner platform, and the arrows could not penetrate the wall, and the arrows could only fall to the ground, because the beacon tower was built very firmly. So many arrows fell on the outer walls and the walls of the beacon tower.
Wang Yu shouted: "Close! If you get close, I'll shoot you!" At this time, Zhang Biwu and Qin Dongsheng also came over, Zhang Biwu could see clearly that the cavalry of the Jin Kingdom all released an arrow, and then drove their horses away, and they did not dare to get too close to the pier.
Zhang Biwu gritted his teeth with hatred, he knew that he couldn't leave the beacon tower, and as soon as he left, he would become the prey of the enemy cavalry, and the only thing they could rely on was the defensive measures like the beacon.
Zhang Biwu, who wanted to make meritorious contributions, was very anxious, but there was no way, and the courage of the horseman was useless. "Alas!" Zhang Biwu let out a long breath, and he more and more agreed with Wang Yu's words just now: "As long as you get close, I will shoot you!" ”
After the golden cavalry fired a round of arrows at the pier, the cavalry stayed away from the pier and stood by in formation.
Zhang Biwu looked at this situation and couldn't help but think: "What are they doing here?" Why do you want to attack or not? Do you want to retreat? Qin Dongsheng didn't understand either, and said: "The Tartars of the Jin Kingdom haven't committed a border for a long time, but this time they suddenly committed a border, I don't know what their intentions are?" ”
Zhang Biwu stared intently at the Jin State Golden Cavalry. Zhang Biwu shouted in his heart: "Come here!" Let me show my skills! I'm going to impress everyone who looks down on me! Come here, O enemies! ”
Although Zhang Biwu's heart shouted and shouted, but the golden cavalry stopped for a long time and did not act, the golden cavalry understood that the Ming army would not rush out of the pier to fight with them, the Jin army's many southern strategies, so that the Ming army was frightened, afraid of the enemy like a tiger, the corruption within the Ming army, so that the Ming army is no longer the former feared and mighty division.
After the Jin cavalry had stopped for a long time, they slowly retreated.
Zhang Biwu couldn't help but be extremely disappointed when he saw this, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, he was looking forward to the golden cavalry rushing over, but he didn't expect it to be a retreat. Zhang Biwu could only watch the golden cavalry go away until he disappeared into sight.
During the day, the golden cavalry came to harass, so naturally they couldn't relax at night, Zhang Biwu and Qin Dongsheng arranged to patrol the night tonight to prevent the golden cavalry from attacking again.
Zhang Biwu was lying on the top of the inner platform, he looked up at the starry sky, he thought he could show his skills during the day, but he didn't expect that the bamboo basket was empty.
Could it be that Zhang Biwu is willing to stay in the small beacon tower for a long time? No! The answer is no! Zhang Biwu must make meritorious contributions. If you want to get ahead in troubled times, if you want to have great achievements, you naturally have to rely on force! Now the Ming Dynasty is a place where internal and external troubles come into play, suppressing the peasant army internally, and resisting the Jin army externally.
Zhang Biwu was relieved when he thought of this, anyway, he had waited for the opportunity for so long, he was not afraid to wait any longer.
Just as Zhang Biwu was thinking, he heard a sound, although it was not loud, but he heard it clearly, and they got up in a hurry. At the same time, Qin Dongsheng also found out and shouted: "Biwu!" The enemy is here again! As during the day, less than 100 people! Fast! Ignite the beacon fire! ”
The top of the inner platform was already full of firewood, and Zhang Biwu naturally set the fire on fire. When he looked again, the nearby beacon tower was also on fire, and the light of the fire shone across the night sky, accompanied by the sound of a cannon.
Kim's cavalry, as during the day, did not approach the beacon, but only stopped in front of the beacon, as if they were scouting and demonstrating.
Will the Golden Cavalry attack?
