Chapter 116: Honshu Island
There is a Su clan in the area of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and the army is drawn to a place called Yin, and it is constantly attacked and harassed by a small group of Su clansmen, who run away day and night.
Although the loss was not large, it hindered the speed of the army's march and gave Wen Taishi a headache.
I found that the Su clan often harassed in complex terrain, and sent raiders to be familiar with the terrain, so I proposed a frog jump sweeping plan.
That is, at intervals of twenty miles, elite iron cavalry was sent to sweep and cut off the back road of the Su clan's attackers.
Eat it one by one, reducing the vitality of the Su clan.
Master Wen agreed to this strategy and ordered me to lead 10,000 elite iron horsemen to carry it out.
My elite iron cavalry galloped twenty miles, and every village I went, I killed the strong men and burned all the houses, so that the attackers of the Su clan had no supplies and strength to replenish.
Then turn around and search for elimination.
After the area of the clearance reached 100 miles, tens of thousands of soldiers of the Yousu clan were killed, and the Yousu clan did not dare to send any more attacking troops.
The first pass that the army faces to attack is called Gong, which lies between two steep mountains, and the cross-section is no more than 500 meters long, and the army cannot be deployed.
There are Su clans stationed troops on the mountains on both sides, and they are equipped with a large number of rolling wood boulders, and if they attack easily, they will suffer heavy losses.
Gong is the only way, and if this pass is not taken, the army will not be able to continue to advance.
Through observation, I found that behind the defenders on the mountain on the left was a dense camellia forest, so I proposed a fire tactic, and it was no problem to go around to the back and set fires, the key was to have the help of the wind, which could quickly ignite a fire that could not be extinguished.
Wen Taishi would observe the sky and observe that after five days, strong winds were suitable for arson.
I selected fifty soldiers who were good at climbing, and came to the back of the mountain at night with fuel, which was a cliff that the defenders of the Su clan would not be guarded against.
First of all, I climbed up, lowered the rope and indexed the fifty soldiers on it, and waited for the strong wind to pour oil and set fire.
In the middle of the night, when the wind rose, we began to pour oil and set fires, and with the help of the whirring wind, the raging fire spread fiercely forward, lighting up the night sky bright red.
As we descended the cliff, we heard the defenders of the Su clan shouting in panic.
The fire was extinguished until noon, and 10,000 soldiers of our army occupied the hill on the left and condescendingly fired arrows at the pass, accompanied by rolling wooden boulders.
Our army had an attack surface of several hundred meters and quickly broke through this pass.
Gong used to be a plain, our army was like a bamboo, and soon surrounded the capital of the Su clan, besieged for three days, and the leader of the Su clan led his troops to open the city gate and surrender.
The class teacher returned to the court, and the king was rewarded for his meritorious deeds, and I was named the Marquis of Shenyong.
One day, when the court was discussing politics, I was surprised to find that Su Daji was sitting next to the king of Zhou, and the king of Zhou couldn't put her down, regardless of the public's eyes.
When I went back to the house to find Chongming to inquire, I learned that it was another minister, You Hun, who designed it to let the king see Su Daji, and the king of the house, Long Yan Dayue, was very fond of him.
You Hun and Fei Zhong were embarrassed in the court, they were both opponents of Queen Jiang, Chongming analyzed, Fei Zhong was killed, You Hun thought it was Queen Jiang who did it.
In order to save his life, You Hun hurriedly found Su Daji as an umbrella.
I gritted my teeth with hatred in my heart, now that the wood is in the boat, it is useless to kill You Hun, I can only find another way to protect Su Daji.
Su Daji is in the harem, I have no way to get close, I must place someone by her side, I can get her news at any time, and if there is a dangerous situation, I can rush to the rescue.
I thought of Chongming's sister, it would be great if she could be placed next to Su Daji, and tell Chongming what she meant, and Chongming said that You Hun could do it.
Then settle Youhun.
I am Shenyong Hou, and my status in the army is second only to Wen Taishi, You Hun has slapped me on the back many times, and he should not refuse if he opens this mouth.
After all, it is a crossing, and the etiquette cannot be short, so I asked Yue Jie to invite You Hun to come to the house for a drink.
I proposed at the wine table that I hoped to take care of Chongming's sister and arrange it to be next to the most favored Su Daji.
You Hun smiled instead of looking over, I understood that conditions were needed, and the conditions were a promise, and if he could get the support of the military attaché, his position would be more secure.
I took a sip of wine and said leisurely, loyal to the king of the Su is firm and undouble-minded, Su Daji is the most favored person of the king of the Zhou, and Aiwu and Wu will naturally be loyal to Su Daji.
Then he said that he would stand with Su Daji's people.
This is the truth, as long as Suda does not die, the rest has nothing to do with me.
You Hun was very satisfied with this answer and promised to arrange Chongming's sister.
After that, the king of Su became less and less in charge of the court, and his mind was on Su Daji, and many ministers came forward to advise the court, and they were either given death or burned.
Until the uncle of the king of Zhou, Abishan, was dug out of his heart and died, the subject state Zhou rebelled and immediately united to 800 princes. I understand that the end of the Shang Dynasty is coming soon, and it has become extremely urgent to prevent the self-immolation of the King and Su Daji.
Su Daji needs close protection at this moment, how to get to her makes me rack my brains, at this moment, there is a slave riot in Chaoge City.
For some reason, King Su deposed Empress Jiang and made Su Daji the queen, which was a great plan to destroy the country, and Jiang Qichun, who managed the affairs of Chaoge Prison and prison, instigated a slave rebellion.
Chaoge had 30,000 slaves, and Jiang Qichun's forces joined forces to break through the imperial city, and the king fled to Lutai with Su Daji, where they were besieged by the rebels.
I was in charge of an army of 100,000, but I was far away in the training ground twenty miles away from Chaoge, and on the one hand, I sent people to dispatch quickly, and on the other hand, I summoned 5,000 soldiers from the Chongming Department in the city to go to Lutai to rescue the driver.
When I came to Lutai, I saw the rebels fighting fiercely with the Imperial Forest Army, and due to the large number of rebels, the Royal Forest Army was defeated and retreated.
I led 5,000 soldiers to fight into the encirclement, Jiang Qichun led the troops to block, once with the account as a general, knowing that he was born with divine power, 300 catties of stone locks can throw ten meters, I am invincible.
Jiang Qichun made two big copper hammers, and the battle came to me, I abandoned my horse and landed, holding a spear and using Ling Bobu to wrestle with him.
The two of them fought back and forth dozens of times, and seeing that the encirclement of the rebels besieging Lutai was shrinking smaller and smaller, I was so anxious that I secretly took out a bow and crossbow and shot at Jiang Qichun's horse's belly.
The arrow in the horse jumped up in pain, Jiang Qichun quickly jumped off the horse and landed to fight me.
On the ground, my light skills took the advantage, and I used the cloud step to spin around Jiang Qichun like a hot wheel, making him scramble.
After more than a dozen moves, I turned to Jiang Qichun's back, but he didn't have time to turn around, so I saw a shot stabbed him in the back.
Drawing out my spear, I immediately rushed into the rebels, picked thorns and slashed to open a bloody road, rushed into the core of the encirclement, and saw the king holding a glazed gold head boring, protecting Su Daji behind him, although his face was nervous, but not half panicked.
I went up and knocked on the king.
"Your Majesty, Weichen's rescue is too late."
The king let out a sigh of relief and said, "Divine Brave Marquis, I can rest assured when I see you. ”
Su Daji looked at me with a curious expression, I saw her for the second time in this world, and she was more graceful and radiant than the last time.
