Chapter 57: Immovable as a mountain and a jade gate
Mao was very relieved to see his children coming.
Originally, everyone was ready to die in battle and live and die with Yumen Pass, which was a tragic and tragic atmosphere.
However, with the arrival of the Mao family, the atmosphere has changed a little, and these young descendants are not afraid of life and death, which is undoubtedly a great encouragement to morale.
Mao Buyi asked, "Are you okay at home?"
Mao Dezu replied: "Everything is fine!"
Mao Yiyi asked with concern, "What about Yuxin?"
Mao Dezu showed a kind smile on his face, "Yuxin has learned to speak, and when the child comes, he will already be able to call his father!"
"Good!"
Mao Buyi couldn't help but think of his little grandson, with a smile on his solemn face, but he seemed to have some regrets, probably because he couldn't hear his little grandson call his grandfather. However, he felt that even if he died in battle today, it would be worth it.
In the future, my Mao Yi's descendants, when mentioning my Mao Yi, can also straighten their backs and tell others that my grandfather died defending the Han border pass.
Immediately, his gaze was fixed on a stout man.
"Mao Deping, who asked you to come? Get back to Lao Tzu!"
The man said with some fear: "Uncle, I have already married my daughter-in-law, and when I came, my daughter-in-law was already pregnant, don't worry, my family will never be over!"
Mao Buyi was a little surprised and said, "Heh, your kid can also marry a daughter-in-law?"
Mao Deping looked at Mao Yi aggrievedly: "Uncle, why can't I marry a daughter-in-law?"
Mao Buyi said: "You kid, you haven't studied well since you were a child, you haven't been beaten by Lao Tzu, if it weren't for Lao Tzu, you would have gone astray, and you can marry a daughter-in-law, and you can also rely on Lao Tzu's stick to educate well, so that the girl can take a fancy to it." ”
Mao Deping is a simple and stocky guy, but he was forced to look miserable. made the others laugh, and the other young people also laughed and told Mao Buyi about some things at home, and the atmosphere quietly became optimistic.
At this time, Mao Dezu looked at the cracks in the wall, and the corpses that fell seemed to be moving, as if they were infected by the joyful atmosphere of the gate, and they all wanted to jump out and laugh?
Suddenly, the wall shook violently again, and everyone's faces changed, and when they looked again, they found that the wall had broken again, leaving another crack. The corpses under the city, some of them, were also completely submerged in the crack before.
Everyone's faces changed slightly.
"Father, these cracks must be repaired immediately!"
These cracks may become an important flaw for the enemy to break through the Yumen Pass, and they can use this crack to completely shatter the entire Yumen Pass.
"Go find the mud and rock, seal it into these cracks. ”
Mudstone is a kind of earth-like soil, hidden in the cracks of the ground, and when the land is exposed, it can quickly condense into a stone-like shape, even harder than a stone.
It's just that it takes time to dig deep to get it out.
Mao should not let Mao Dezu and a few other young guys take action.
The Kang people stopped attacking, and the soldiers defending the city could just take a breather, but at this moment, they didn't have the idea of resting, and they all wanted to help with it, but Mao should not let everyone rest, as for these young people who just came, they began to build the wall again in an orderly division of labor without resting.
I don't know why, after Mao Dezu arrived, Kang Guo never launched an attack again, you know, at this time in recent days, Kang Guo people are under onslaught, and even at night it is not peaceful, and people can often be seen sneaking into the city in the middle of the night.
When night fell, there was a slaughter inside and outside the gate, and outside the gate, there were wild beasts, and they were gnawing at the corpses that had not been cleaned up, making a clattering sound, which looked very terrifying, and the young people who had just arrived were not very adaptable.
And the veterans who have been stationed here all the year round have begun to impart some knowledge to these young people who have just arrived, even if they are tired and sleepy, but they are still holding on, they just want these young lives to have more means to save their lives, live longer, and let this jade gate pass exist longer.
In the middle of the night, on the verge of desert, the temperature began to drop sharply, but even so, the veterans were tired and sleepy, and quickly fell asleep.
Mao is not suitable for his grandfather and son, but he did not sleep.
Mao Buyi said: "Some time ago, my father had a hunch that there would probably be such a day, but I didn't expect it to come so soon." ”
Mao Dezu admired: "Fortunately, my father was prescient. ”
In his life, the most admired person is his father.
Since he was born, his father has rarely been by his side, when he was a child, he didn't understand, and he didn't understand, but when he grew up, he became a father himself, and he became a soldier, and he understood his father's suffering over the years.
"Dezu, my father knows that you have been smart since you were a child, and those military books that defend the city, my father can't see any tricks, how are you studying?"
Looking at Mao Bu's temples like frost and the expectation in his expression, Mao Dezu's eyes were slightly red and said: "Since my father told the child about these things that day, the child has been studying the city guard soldiers all these days, and he has gained a lot. ”
Seeing this, Mao Yi was very relieved, and also a little more relieved, and asked: "Yumen Pass is in danger, can Dezu have a good plan?"
"Father, the child has learned from a lot of war cases, according to those defensive methods, developed a complete set of defense plans, the child thinks, Kang Guo wants to quickly break the dream of the Yumen Pass, I am afraid it will be broken, the child wants to let them know, what is the immovable mountain Yumen Pass, father, please see. ”
Mao Dezu took out a book from his sleeve and handed it to Mao Yiyi.
Mao Buyi took the book, and the room fell into silence.
Mao Yi looked at the bamboo slip, but his eyes became brighter and brighter, he sometimes frowned, fell into contemplation, sometimes suddenly realized, and from time to time, he also pointed to a certain place and asked Mao Dezu about the doubts.
Mao Dezu hurried for days, and he was already in the dust, and Mao Yiyi also supervised the battle day after day, personally on duty, and never rested well.
However, neither father nor son felt the slightest sense of sleep.
Before you know it, most of the night has passed.
In the second half of the night, he seemed to have figured out all the joints, and Mao Bu's face was happy, "Hahahaha, it's worthy of being my Mao Bu's son, it's not too early now, and we won't rest, let's call people up first, and follow this plan." ”
Tonight, too, was very peaceful, and there was no longer a trace of harassment. The soldiers, who had been fighting for days, finally managed to sleep comfortably, but they were called up.
After that, in the entire Yumen Pass, the rapid action started, and the Kang Guo spies who were peeping at the Yumen Pass outside the pass noticed something strange and went back to report.
It's just that Kang Guo was brewing a full-scale general attack during the day, and he didn't care about these small actions of a few grasshoppers that couldn't be around for a long time.
As soon as the sky turned white, a red line appeared in the distant sky.
It seems to indicate that today will be another river of blood.
As soon as the morning dawned, the Kang people came to the city again.
At this time, in the imperial capital, Wang Hao in the palace was also paying attention to the battle at Yumen Pass, and he asked Xiao Guizi: "When the Yulin Army arrives at Yumen Pass?"
"Your Majesty, General Ye reported that they are traveling day and night, and they can go to Yumen Pass today. ”
Wang Hao nodded, although he was still a little worried in his heart, he had more expectations.
However, the news said that Mao Dezu had arrived at Yumen Pass.
Mao Dezu, Mao Dezu, don't let me down.
