: Han heard Fa Zheng laughing and scolding. I had to smile and wait for the Fa to be relieved. Guidi shook his head. said: "The poem that Mr. Fang Caiwen and read was the poem that was read when the Marquis of Huaiyin flooded the waste hill and broke the chapter. The whole poem is that the green insects fly all over the sky. The sunset is red like blood. There is a moon outside the moon at night, and the wind and rain shake down the ruins. The first three lines of the poem are about the weather, describing the signs before the heavy rain. Do you understand it now?.

Huang Xu heard and nodded. Then he looked up at the bright moon hanging high in the night sky. I saw that there was a moon halo beyond the bright moon. Then he said: "Sure enough, it is night and there is a moon outside the moon." So it's really raining heavily?

Fa Zheng heard this, and reluctantly continued to explain: "It's not only heavy rain, if there is a heavy rain in summer, this was the case when the Huaiyin Marquis flooded the waste hill. However, it is now more than a month into autumn, and it is not only heavy rain that comes, but also heavy snow after the heavy rain. Zi Zhen can remember every autumn and winter. First there was a heavy rain, and then it was snow, but the old man was right, this year's heavy snow came early

Zhang Xiu, who was in front of him, heard it and said with a smile: "This is God helping our army, if the snow is coming at the same time as in previous years." I am afraid that our army will still have to fight hard if it wants to break the Xiliang army, and now it is a good opportunity for our army to break the enemy. ”

ten thousand

Jia Xu also smiled rarely, and said: "What the lord said is true, now our army has 40,000 winter clothes, and the enemy's reinforcements, winter clothes, grain and grass have not yet arrived. His army still wears short shirts. As soon as the snow came, our army had only 40,000 soldiers to fight. However, it is enough to break the two large camps of the Xiliang Army

Zhang Xiu heard it and said with a smile: "Let's go back to the camp to discuss this matter for a long time." Several people answered. The degree of return to the camp has been accelerated.

On the night of the second day after Zhang Xiu returned to the camp, a north wind suddenly rose. The sky began to "tick tock." It was raining heavily, and it was getting heavier and heavier. It took a whole day to stop.

And at the same time as the rain, the temperature plummeted, and the cold wind and cold rain hit. This year's winter came very early, and the heavy rain stopped for two days. But the drop in temperatures hasn't stopped. The pouring rain continued to hit. It rained heavily for a day, and finally turned into heavy snow at night, and in just one night, the entire area around Chang'an was dressed in white and silver.

In the big tent of Zhang Xiu's camp, firewood has been lit at this time, which makes the tent extremely warm.

Zhang Xiu and everyone all put on winter clothes and were deliberating.

Although the sky was cold, the mood of the generals was obviously very good, Zhao Yun smiled and said: "The lord is like a god, now that the snow has fallen all night, I am afraid that the Xiliang army outside Chang'an City can only hide in the marching tent and dare not go out."

Zhang Xiu heard it and said: "It's not that Ben will be like a god, and the one who predicts that there will be heavy snow is an old farmer, Ben will just believe his words and pause, Zhang Xiu said: "Don't talk about it." What is the situation of the soldiers now? ”

Zhao Yun replied: "Earlier, Zi led Wancheng reinforcements to 30,000 collars of winter clothes, and later Zhong Taishou and Wen Yuan sent troops to send 10,000 collars of winter clothes. Now the 15,000-collar winter coat has been distributed to Pangulis, Thundercloud Riders, Bloodblade Battalion, and Flying Feather Bow Knights. The other 20,000 were distributed to 20,000 cavalry. The remaining 5,000 leaders were assigned to Jianhong's subordinates, so that his army could continue to go out and collect boulders for the use of thunderbolts

Zhang Xiu listened, nodded and smiled: "Okay!" Jianhong, how is the collection of boulders? The thunderbolt is a sharp weapon, and it must be known that this time to attack the enemy's camp, the first thing to do is to smash the enemy camp with the thunderbolt boulder

The Imperial Mansion could hear it. Out of the column said: "Lord, it has been raining heavily for several days. The roads are difficult to navigate, and the mountains are dangerous. It is not easy to collect boulders, and now only 100 new boulders have been collected, and the end will be ineffective, please punish the lord

Zhang Xiu frowned when she heard this, and said, "A hundred boulders are only enough for twenty thunderbolts to shoot five times." Counting the available boulders that were recovered before, it was not enough to attack the two camps

When the emperor heard this, he said: "Please send five thousand more soldiers to the lord, and the last general will collect another hundred huge stones within three days."

After hearing this, Zhang Xiu thought secretly: "Even if you get another hundred boulders, if you attack Chang'an after breaking the camp this time." The boulder can no longer be recovered, although the thunderbolt is strong, but there is no boulder throwing, what is the use of thinking, the mouth muttered: "It is not easy to collect boulders" It is not easy to collect boulders "If you make a boulder, you can make a boulder with sand, and you have it."

Everyone saw that Zhang Xiu was muttering and thinking, and they didn't dare to disturb loudly, and suddenly heard Zhang Xiu shouting, "There is." Fa Zheng immediately asked, "Does the lord have a good plan?" ”

Zhang Xiu nodded and laughed: "Jianhong, recall all the soldiers who collected the boulders, and you don't have to go to Qinling to collect the boulders."

When the Emperor Fu heard this, he was surprised and said, "My lord", this,"

Zhang Xiu laughed and said: "Our army doesn't need to collect boulders, Ben Jiang has already made his own boulders." ”

When everyone heard this, they were all surprised: "Homemade boulders?." This time, even Fa Zheng and Jia Xu couldn't hide the surprise in their eyes.

Zhang Xiu smiled and said: "This method is extremely easy, let the soldiers dig out the mud and sand on the ground first." Pile up into a block of one or two, and at the same time let the ten pawns splash water on the mud and sand! Bu, as today with the bitter cold. The ship sometimes condensed into ice. There was ice that frozen the earth, and it was no different from a boulder that had been collected

When everyone heard Zhang Xiu's words, their eyes lit up, and they praised each other, and Zhang Xiu said: "Zi Zheng." Ben will allocate 5,000 soldiers to let you be in charge of this matter, if Jianhong's department returns to the camp to take charge of it together, be sure to make more frozen soil within three days, there will be no quantity, all in all, the more the better. After this frozen soil broke the camp, it is also useful to attack Chang'an City, and it must be multi-systematic

Huang Xu and the Huangfu Mansion heard it, and responded in unison: "No,"

Three days later, Huang Xu and the Huangfu Mansion led the soldiers to make nearly 1,000 pieces of frozen soil the size of a millstone, that is, an average of more than 300 pieces of frozen soil a day. Compared to collecting boulders, this method is not only safer. And it's labor-saving. Of course, there is a disadvantage to these frozen soils, that is, they cannot be recycled, and usually the frozen soil is thrown by the thunderbolt after hitting the target. Due to the reaction force. The frozen soil, which is bonded together by ice alone, will crumble. However, due to the simplicity and convenience of production, this disadvantage can be basically ignored, as long as there is water and sediment, such frozen soil can be made.

Zhang embroidered this, the method of making frozen soil, in fact, out of the history of Cao Cao's war horse, splashing water to build a city with mud and sand. At that time, Zhang Xiu thought that since Cao Cao could build a city in this way and successfully resisted the attack of Ma's army, it was naturally feasible to use this method to make boulders.

Of course, the permafrost is not as powerful as a really hard grinding stone, but it is better in number. Compared to boulders, of course, permafrost is better. However, this method can only be used in winter, not in other seasons.

Here Zhang Xiu is preparing in full swing, in Chang'an City. Ma Teng and Han Sui both shrank in their respective mansions and did not go out. Han Sui scolded while roasting the fire by the stove: "What the hell is the weather, it was so hot and sweaty a few days ago, and it snowed heavily in a few days

I couldn't stop cursing, but I only heard the report of the guards outside: "My lord, Cheng Junshi asks to see you."

Han Sui heard it and responded, "Let him come in." ”

Cheng Gongying walked into Han Sui's room, and since the heavy rain began to fall and the temperature dropped sharply, Cheng Gongying's heart was uneasy. Especially when he saw that it was snowing heavily after the heavy rain, Cheng Gongying's sense of unease was even stronger, and after thinking about it, he decided to come to see Han Sui immediately.

After sitting down, Han Sui took down the hot wine that was roasted on the fire, poured a full cup for himself and Cheng Gongying, and said, "It's cold, Gongying has drunk hot wine to drive away the cold." ”

Cheng Gongying frowned unconsciously when he saw the hot wine, but he didn't shirk it and drank the hot wine slowly. Han Sui also picked up the hot wine and drank it slowly. He exhaled comfortably and asked, "What's the matter with Gongying?" ”

Cheng Gongying said: "Lord, the weather has dropped sharply, and this year's winter has come as fast as ever, and I don't know when the winter clothes will be shipped to Chang'an."

Han Sui said: "Gongying also knows that Xiliang is poor, and more than 100,000 pieces of winter clothes can not be prepared for a while, and now there are 20,000 winter clothes that have entered Guanzhong with 30,000 reinforcements, but in the past few days, there has been heavy rain and heavy snow, so it has stagnated." It will arrive in less than three days after the heavy snow has stopped.

Cheng Gongying heard it and decided to say what was in his heart, only to hear him say, "Lord." Now our army has no winter clothes. Fortunately in Chang'an City, the soldiers asked the people to borrow winter clothes. However, the soldiers of the two large battalions under the city now wear short shirts, and can only roast in the marching tent in peacetime, and cannot go out of the tent. If Zhang Xiu's army attacks at this time, I am afraid

Before Cheng Gongying finished speaking, Han Sui smiled and said: "Gongying is too worried, this time the heavy snow is very urgent, our army is not prepared, how can Zhang Xiu be prepared."

Ben will fight Zhang Xiu several times. The people in his army are very clear. Jia Xu, a strategist under his command, also did not understand celestial phenomena, but he was afraid that at this time, Zhang Xiu also let the whole army hide in the marching tent to warm up

After a pause, Han Sui said: "Gongying, the sergeant of our army in the city asked the people how much winter clothes they borrowed?" ”

Cheng Gongying naturally knew what Han Sui was talking about. The word "borrow" actually means "rob". However, he had been following Han Sui for a long time, and he had long been accustomed to this kind of thing, and he replied with an unchanged expression: "It's not enough for ten thousand." The people of Chang'an City were afraid and did not expect the heavy snow to come so quickly, and most of the people's winter clothes were not ready, so they could only wear old ones

Han Sui heard this, frowned, and said: "Now the army is in urgent need of winter clothes, the people can stay at home every day, why do you need winter clothes, let the soldiers go to the city to ask the people to borrow winter clothes, you can't let the soldiers only wear short shirts." In case Zhang Xiu attacked at this time. Aren't the sons and daughters of Ben General who protect the people? Go for it. ”

Cheng Gongying heard this, and replied helplessly: "He didn't expect that his reminder to Han Sui would become an excuse for Han Sui to let the soldiers rob the people of winter clothes, and Cheng Gongying could only smile helplessly.
