Chapter 364 Manpower Fights Mountain
"The guards at the west gate of Miyagi saw the prince riding away on a sick donkey. The www.biquge.info guard wanted to change a good horse for the prince, but the prince refused. The prince said that he would not come back from this trip, so he would not waste the military horses. β
After listening to the messenger's words, Han Feng had mixed feelings in his heart, waved his hand, and ordered the messenger to retreat. He thought he knew where Zhan Zhongqi had gone. The gap in Xuelong Mountain can be made up for by non-human beings. Since it was broken by the formation, it should be combined with the formation. However, things are always easy to break and difficult to build, and at the beginning, Mingxi's light finger was only afraid that at this time, he would have to make up for it with Zhan Zhongqi's remaining life. And Zhan Zhongqi suddenly left at this moment, probably to make up for the indelible damage in his niece's and granddaughter's heart.
In the end, the Emperor Uncle Ancestor finally gave up his mission to protect the Zhan royal family, and instead dedicated his life to all the people in the world, or all the creatures on this side of the mountain.
However, since then, he has no support. In the past, he would think that if something couldn't be solved, there was the omnipotent Emperor Uncle Zu to clean up the mess, and even this time the snow sculpture attack, he also thought that he really couldn't, and Zhan Zhongqi could help, but Zhan Zhongqi really went...... And the price of this is something he could not have known in advance.
"Uncle Huang Zu...... "For the sake of Mingxi's affairs, he once hated Zhan Zhongqi, but in the following relationship, his resentment towards Zhan Zhongqi was decreasing day by day, and even now, he can hardly remember why he hated Uncle Huang. For the emperor's uncle, in addition to trust and dependence, he was more respectful: "Thank you." I'll do what you don't finish. β
Outside the camp, two snow sculpture heads were raised high by the barrels of soldiers' guns. Although the snow sculptures caused casualties in the first attack, the second attack, due to the precautions made in advance, and the cooperation of Han Feng and Zhan Fan, the two remaining snow sculptures were disposed of beautifully and cleanly. The soldiers forgot about the previous losses for the time being, and because of this victory, their morale became extremely high, and the joint camp sang praises from top to bottom, and even thought that they could destroy Liang Gong in one fell swoop to the east to avenge their previous revenge.
And the longer he stayed in the army, the more confident Han Feng became. He was able to take these soldiers with him because he already knew what they really wanted.
Similar to Lidu, the geographical conditions of Fengguan Mangcheng are not good. This is an alpine zone, and the days of being able to grow crops are only four or five months, and due to the cold weather, lack of water and fertilizer, the grain produced in these five months is far less fertile than the grain produced in the plains. The water here is not boiled, and the cooked rice is always half-cooked, and eating barbecue is a forced choice, but eating too much barbecue makes people restless and more aggressive.
Therefore, the soldiers of the Western Dynasty are stronger in combat than the soldiers under the mountain, in addition to the fact that Manghou values military discipline training, it is more because of their fierceness in flesh and blood. This is a group of people who fight with the sky and the earth all the time, and occasionally fight with the Yedi people. If you don't fight, you won't survive.
The world yearns for comfort, just as the soldiers of Lidu were attracted by "freedom" and chose Xinghou, these soldiers of the Western Dynasty also longed for the fertile land and rich river banks that they saw after crossing the mountains and mountains.
This is where the self-confidence of Manghou rises to the army.
Qin Huochuan's good news was finally delivered, and there were still a few blood marks on his body, showing that the road was not smooth. Han Feng originally thought that there was a problem with his deployment, and even doubted that Li Wenxuan led the team to turn around and ambush in the middle of the road, but after learning that this person was trying to disappear from under the nose of the snow sculpture, he couldn't help but be in awe.
"It's the medicine that the high priest gave to the villain before...... The high priest said that the villain is a messenger and safety comes first. took a bottle of deworming medicine and gave it to the villain, saying that when 100,000 is in a hurry, it can be used to save his life. The man looked at Zhan Fan, who was standing beside Han Feng, with a look of shame - in his letter, in addition to Li Wenxuan's defeat, there was also a telling Han Feng to be careful of this man's attack, but it was obvious that he had not achieved his task.
Han Feng was very familiar with the smell of this medicinal powder, this was the medicinal powder that drove away poisonous bees, and he didn't expect it to be useful for snow sculptures. However, the messenger's next words made him a little helpless: "The villain sniffed the powder and let the horse run away alone...... The snow sculptures went to chase the horses, and the little ones were able to escape. It's just that...... That's why it's too late. β
"That's it. Han Feng said, "Does General Qin have anything else to say?"
The messenger said, "General Qin sent a thousand cavalry to pursue Li Wenxuan's deserters, saying that in two days, he will definitely be able to dedicate Li Wenxuan's head to you." β
"That's going west?" Han Feng shook his head slightly, "You send a message back and tell General Qin that you don't need to chase after them, let them go." β
The soldiers under Qin Huo's command were not as obedient to the orders as the soldiers led by Luo Huaixin, not to mention that in their hearts, what they really followed was always the high priest, not the Emperor Han in front of them. The messenger was stunned and asked, "Let them go, but there is a village to the west!"
Han Feng said: "The current Li Wenxuan no longer has the strength to provoke those Yedi villages. He thought about the Yedi village he had seen, and his mood gradually eased, and he said, "What's more, it's ominous to go west." If they really arrived at Xuelong Mountain, they would naturally have a home. Let General Qin lead his troops to the east and join me. β
The middle half of the sentence was vague, and the messenger was ignorant, but he also understood that Han Feng would not explain it in detail. He nodded, rode on the war horse prepared by Luo Huaixin, and took the order.
"Does the Holy Lord want to take back the Hanxing Pass in one fell swoop? But the pass has been flooded. After the messenger left, Luo Huaixin opened his mouth to ask a question.
Han Feng said, "I want to take a look." In addition, the Puda River cannot be so broken forever, winter has come, the upstream water flow will slowly slow down, and the Puda River water will freeze. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Manghou should have sent someone to rebuild the dam. Do you think Manghou is doing nothing in the city?"
"Yes, Manghou, his old man......" Luo Huaixin only felt a cold sweat behind him, I don't know when he had forgotten the real ruler of Fengguan Mangcheng, Manghou, and Manghou has been silent and inactive these days, what is he thinking?
Three days later, the two armies merged and went to Hanxing Pass together. As Han Feng expected, the torrent of the Puda River has slowed down, and the closer it is to the pass, the shallower the water flow becomes, and in the end there is only a piece of mud left.
However, this muddy area was frozen due to the decreasing temperature, causing people and horses to slip step by step, which caused great inconvenience to the march. Luo Huaixin urgently ordered someone to weave five or six hundred straw mats, but Rao was like this, and the speed of the march still could not catch up with half of the original.
After conquering the Hanxing Pass, Li Wenxuan sent people to kill all the Western generations in the pass, regardless of men, women, and children. But he originally thought that the army was invincible and would be able to conquer Fengguan Mangcheng in one fell swoop, so he only put a thousand guards in Hanxing Pass, and the commander of the army was only a young man who had just been promoted to the capital commander, surnamed Yu Minglin.
Yu Lin was the first division captain to lead the army into Hanxing Pass, and was promoted because of his military merits, but the 1,000 soldiers under him were still his subordinates when he was originally a division captain. Judging from the number of troops he led, he did not have a substantial promotion, and even when these subordinates called their generals in private, they would still call him "division captain" by mistake. Fortunately, Yu Lin is a person who does not care about small things, and never punishes others because of his title.
What really worried Yu Lin was the war in the Western Dynasty. For him, the inexplicable flood that came out of nowhere was a bad omen. The torrent broke through the gate, which had been destroyed by the war, and swept dozens of soldiers out of the gate. Yu Lin arranged for his subordinates to build flood control and embankments at the first time, but although the water was under control, he found a lot of chilling things in the water.
He saw a lot of armor that had been rushed inβthe armor of many of the soldiers of Futao City. It's hard to imagine what has happened to the upper reaches of this current. What frightened him even more was that he had fundamentally lost contact with Li Wenxuan.
The flood water flowed down into the river, making Hanxingguan an isolated island. The messenger sent by the Duke of Liang could not arrive, and the messenger sent by Li Wenxuan - in Yu Lin's heart, he even thought that Li Wenxuan could not send an envoy.
The reserves of the granary of Hanxingguan had bottomed out, and there was discontent among the soldiers, and every day the centurion came to complain to him, and Yu Lin did not know what to do with the mess in front of him.
And just when he was anxious and full of speculation, the army that appeared fifty miles outside the city gave him a definite answer, and it was also a fatal blow.
Emperor Han of the Western Dynasty drove the expedition in person and came to seize the pass!
"Division...... Dutong, what should we do?" Yu Lin's first division lieutenant was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
Yu Lin forced his composure and said, "The flood has receded, and Ben General has already sent a messenger to Futao City yesterday to ask for reinforcements, let's wait, wait." It was not easy for them to march, and it would take a day to get there this fifty-mile road. Even if they are exhausted before the pass, our army will not have to lose!"
"But we only have a thousand people, and the other side is tens of thousands of horses!" said the lieutenant urgently, "It has been three days since the reinforcements received the news, and by the time they come, we will already be dead." Let's go, let's get rid of it, let's get rid of it! Let's go now, there's still a glimmer of life!"
"No!" Yu Lin smashed his fist on the case, shaking the mountain of Bishan, "If we abandon the pass now, isn't it just giving up on the generals and them? That's 20,000 horses! As long as we hold the pass and wait for the generals to outflank them from behind, these soldiers of the Western Dynasty will definitely die without a place to bury them! When we kill Emperor Han of the Western Dynasty, we will have made great achievements! We can't go! Yes, we can't go!" These last four words, he was not saying to his subordinates, but as if he was talking to himself.
The lieutenant was already foaming at the mouth with excitement, and his words were incoherent: "Dutong, are you crazy? General, they have not heard from them for a long time, and they must have been wiped out long ago." Are you going to ask us to bury them? I'm not going to do it! I'm leaving!"
"If you mess with the army's morale, you will definitely not be forgiven!" Yu Lin was completely furious, and in the face of this compatriot's subordinate, he drew his waist knife without hesitation.
And at this moment, outside the door, I suddenly remembered the loud shout of the messenger soldier: "Report! Newspaper!
