Chapter 120: Dead Bodies
At this moment, I saw the silver rainbow surrounding, and seeing that the tartar was about to be surrounded by my swordsmanship, suddenly the tartar laughed a few times, and shouted coldly: "It's good!" "The body suddenly rose into the air, and it was too late to parry with the broadsword, so I had to perform the Mongolian wrestling technique, and the body leaped up, and in the middle of this jump, I put the broadsword in my hand with a loud fight, and the fierce broadsword swung away my dragon sword. The Tartar's strength is extremely strong, and the combination is extremely ingenious, so it is not easy to dodge, fortunately, I am alert, and when the Tartar waved the knife, I hurriedly stabbed the Tartar in the chest, and the body unfolded the supreme light skill of the swallow's three points of water, and quickly retreated, so that I was not injured. The body of the tartar trembled slightly, and when he saw that I had revealed the best kung fu in his hand, he couldn't help but be surprised and angry, and he shouted loudly, and slashed at me with a knife. Tartar saw that my swordsmanship was powerful, and he no longer dared to play with the attitude of the game, the big knife circled and flew, more serious than when he fought Sun Fei, and I didn't dare to be careless at all, and played the "Guanghan Swordsmanship" to the extreme, with wonderful tricks, endlessly, and within dozens of moves, I didn't let the Tartar take advantage of half a day.
I wanted to fight like this for half an hour, and after a long time, the "Guanghan Sword Technique" became more and more powerful, and the "Guanghan Internal Strength" in my body was gradually stimulated and gradually gained the upper hand. Although the Tartar martial arts are powerful, after all, they are not as profound as the martial arts of the Central Plains. And my every move penetrates the tip of the sword, but it is like the wind and the sea and the rain, endless.
At the end, the tartar's face was gloomy, and layers of sweat overflowed from his forehead, and at this moment, only a sneering sound was heard, and hundreds of feathered arrows flew in, followed by the sound of killing in the ears. The Tartar looked at it, was shocked, and hurriedly retracted his sword and shouted at the Tartar soldiers who were grabbing food: "The Ming army is coming, withdraw quickly!" Suddenly the Tartar soldier quickly withdrew from the figure-of-eight pass, and the Tartar galloped on his horse, and as he was leaving, he glanced back at me, and his eyes were full of a certain joy. When I saw the Tartars withdrawing, I hurriedly turned around and looked, and saw a young general, armed with an iron spear and silver armor, galloping on a white horse.
came to Yu Shilong and saluted slightly: "The end is too late, so that you adults are frightened!" Yu Shilong slightly reported his fist and said: "Dare to ask the general's name?" The young general snapped and said, "The last general, Qin Chengfeng!" In the name of General Hu Bing, I came to greet you! Yu Shilong hahahaha: "Okay! Good! Good! It's finally time to get to Jiayuguan! ”
Qin Chengfeng smiled slightly and said, "General Soldier Hu is already waiting for you in the pass?" Yu Shilong laughed and said, "Okay, then let's enter the customs!" The group walked slowly for several hours, on a green grassland, through this grassland, and then walked more than 100 miles, they saw the majestic Jiayuguan, and Yu Shilong's mood was slightly relaxed.
smiled: "I've been tired these days, it's time to drink some wine and celebrate!" Untie a gourd from the saddle, there is old Shaoxing wine sold on the road in the gourd, open the wine stopper, pour the Shaoxing wine in the gourd into the mouth, and sing loudly: "The scenery is different in autumn, and the geese in Hengyang go without paying attention." Voices rang out on all sides. In the thousands of mountains, the long smoke and sunset are closed in a lonely city. A glass of turbid wine is thousands of miles away, and Yan Ran has no plan. Qiang tube is full of frost. People are sleepless, and the general's white hair is in tears. "These few lines of poetry are really well written." Yes, I can't imagine that the scenery outside the plug has a different flavor than the beautiful scenery in the south of our Yangtze River? I stepped forward. Yu Shilong laughed a few times, and suddenly whipped and ran forward, everyone was naturally full of joy to see the grain and grass arrive safely at Jiayuguan, and when they saw Yu Shilong here, they also galloped on horseback. After walking like this for a while, Lu Shuang suddenly shouted on the horse: "Brother Tang, look, Jiayuguan?" I smiled, hurriedly stopped my horse and looked at Jiayuguan, not far away is the majestic Jiayuguan Tower. The road of the castle tower is lined with green grass and flowers. Outside the city, the vast desert Gobi. "I secretly sighed in my heart, a desert atmosphere. At this time, Yu Shilong had followed Qin Chengfeng into the city, and the city was full of green grass, flowers, small bridges and flowing water, clear springs and waterfalls, birds and deer. Went inside and entered the urn city. The urn city is, there are towers on all sides, and when the enemy enters the city, the city gate falls, and you come to catch turtles in an urn. This is also the last line of defense of Jiayuguan against the enemy. Looking from the city tower, there is Qilian Mountain in the distance, and outside the city is the vast Gobi, a desert atmosphere.
Qin Chengfeng guided us along the tree-lined path in the city, and he stood outside the door, when a guard walked out of the mansion, hugged his fist at Yu Shilong and said, "My general has invited everyone!" I followed Yu Shilong through the outer triple and inner triplex, the iron gate was deeply locked, and when I entered the six major gates, the warriors shouted loudly: "The guests have arrived!" The middle door was opened, and the room was brightly lit, and a man in silver armor sat in the middle hall, and ordered: "Please come in!" ”
Yu Shilong smiled at the warrior standing guard and said, "Thank you, raise your legs and walk towards the mansion!" ”
When the man saw Yu Shilong entering, he immediately stood up from his seat, and laughed loudly: "Lord Yu." You have come from afar to send us charcoal in the snow, and I am ashamed that I can't bring out a table of decent wine and food for you! ”
Yu Shilong hugged his fists slightly and said: "What did General Hu say, you fought bravely to kill the enemy on the frontier and served the country loyally, we feel admired in our hearts, it is natural to be able to make some meager efforts, General Hu does not have to be polite!" ”
"General Hu's military discipline is strict, and the soldiers dare to fight the enemy even if they are hungry! This is the real hero of the big husband! I was amazed.
"That's right, just rush to the border soldiers to kill the enemy bravely, all of them are heroes, we don't eat anything, and we are happy in our hearts!" Zhao Wu interjected.
"But, General Hu, can you get us something to eat first, I haven't eaten for two tons, I'm really hungry!" Yin Jun said with embarrassment.
"Hey, I said Brother Yin, you're too unproductive, aren't you? It's just two tons of hunger, you see that General Hu's soldiers have been hungry for two whole days, and there is no one like you! Guard Qian said with a smile.
Yin Jun was stupid.
I glanced at Yu Shilong and said, "General Hu, there is one thing, I don't know whether to ask it or not?" The man smiled and said, "Just talk, I, Hu Yun, must know everything!" ”
I smiled and said, "That's the case, the general has been guarding Jiayuguan for two whole months, I don't know why the imperial court hasn't sent reinforcements yet?" I don't think that Tartar came from well, relying on General Hu's little troops, I'm afraid? ”
It has a history of 631 years. It was built nine years earlier than Shanhaiguan. At the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Song Guogong and Feng Sheng, the general of the conquest, were on the way to the triumph of the class, and the site was located in the middle of the Hexi Corridor, connecting Jiuquan in the east, Yumen in the west, Montenegro in the back, and Qilian in the south. Guancheng was built in the fifth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, lasted 168 years, and was completed in 1540 AD. As recorded in the historical material "Qinbian Chronicle": "At the beginning, there was water and then the customs were placed, and then the building was built, and the Great Wall was built after the building, and the Great Wall could be defended after it was built." The layout of Jiayuguan Guancheng is reasonable, and the construction is lawful. There are three fortresses in the city, multiple lines of defense, there is a city inside the city, and there are moats outside the city, forming a heavy city and defending the situation. It is composed of: the inner city, the urn city, the Luo city, the moat and three three-storey three-eaves hilltop style high-platform pavilion buildings and the moat, the Great Wall peak, etc. The inner city is the main body and center of Sekijo, with a circumference of 640 meters and an area of 25,000 square meters. Outside the east and west gates of the inner city, there are urn city protections, with an area of more than 500 square meters. The urn city gate is open to the south, the west of the west urn city, there is Luo City, the west side of the Luo city wall is set up to close the gate, and the lintel is inscribed with the three words of "Jiayu Pass". The existing buildings in Guancheng mainly include the Guerrilla General's Mansion, Guanjing, Guandi Temple, Theater and Wenchang Pavilion.
Jiayuguan Guancheng is close to the mountains and rivers, guarding the canyon area of about 15 kilometers wide from north to south, and the valley of the Lai River in the south of the canyon constitutes a natural barrier for customs defense. Jiayuguan near the beacon, pier platform criss-crossed, Guancheng east, west, south, north, northeast each road a total of 66 piers. Jiayuguan has a natural topography, both offensive and defensive, and the nearby Great Wall, city platform, moat, beacon and other facilities constitute a strict military defense system, and is also known as "the world's first Xiongguan".
A glass of turbid wine is thousands of miles away, and Yan Ran has no plan. Qiang tube is full of frost. People are sleepless, and the general's white hair is in tears. "I'm afraid it won't be able to withstand the Tartars, will it?" Hu Yun said with a smile. I nodded awkwardly. After a moment, Hu Yun sighed and said, "Now that this traitor of the court is in power, it is difficult for the country to prosper?" I think that I, Hu Mou, am half a horse, experienced in a hundred battles, but in the end, the national fortune is in the hands of Yan Song, who doesn't know what to fight for, which is really hateful! "Having said that, but General Hu doesn't have to be discouraged, although the court is still controlled by Yan Song's dog thief, I believe that as long as there are more loyal and patriotic people like General Hu, then Yan Song's good days will come to an end, and I believe that my Ming Dynasty will prosper one day!" Yu Shilong said confidently. "That's right, although Yan Song holds the power of the imperial court, it should be the people's will that decides the victory of the war, General Hu, I believe that our ordinary people in the Ming Dynasty will stand on your side and help you repel strong enemies!" Lu Shuang hurriedly said. "Hahaha, well said, everyone's words, even if I, Hu Yun, die in this desert, I have no regrets!" There was a burst of joy in the hearts of the people. Suddenly, a report rang: "General, the Tartar soldiers are coming to the city!" Qin Chengfeng quickly broke through the heavy stone gate and walked in, hugged his fists and said. Hu Yun exclaimed: "What, it came so fast, can you see how many people are coming?" Qin Chengfeng said loudly: "See clearly, two thousand people are here?" Hu Yun looked worried, walked back and forth in the house with his hands behind his back for a few steps, and suddenly said with a resolute face: "Okay, gather the soldiers immediately and prepare to fight!" "But...... But? Qin Chengfeng said with some hesitation. But what is it? When are you still spitting, if you have something to say! Hu Yun said angrily. But these Tartars don't seem to have come to attack, they don't have any weapons? Qin Jianfeng said hesitantly. What the? If they don't have weapons, what are they doing? Hu Yun asked with a frown. This, this general is not very clear! Qin Chengfeng said loudly. Hu Yun turned around, glanced at the desert outside the door, and suddenly said in a firm tone: "Go and see!" "Yes!" Qin Chengfeng responded and led the way in front.
