"Remember the tactics we used when we were in Peixian?" Zhu Huan asked.

Yan Gang's eyes lit up and said, "What does the prince mean...... Siege reinforcements? ”

"Yes, but this time it's not a siege for reinforcements, but for a siege." Zhu Huan Zhengse said: "Yang Wen's 100,000 Liao army is going to attack Yongping Mansion, and it must cross the Great Wall. ”

The Great Wall, a name that makes people's blood boil just by listening to it.

Qin annexed the Six Kingdoms, unified the world, and established the first unified multi-ethnic centralized state in Chinese history. In order to maintain and consolidate the security of the unprecedented unity of the great empire, the First Emperor successively adopted a series of major strategic measures for national defense construction and border defense, one of which was the large-scale construction of the Great Wall. In the 32nd year of Qin Shi Huang, General Meng Tian led an army of 300,000 to attack the Xiongnu in the north, took the land of Jiangxi, and then built the Great Wall that started from Lintao in the west and ended in Liaodong in the east, winding for more than 10,000 miles. Since Qin Shi Huang built the Great Wall, it has been called the Great Wall.

The Great Wall is not a simple isolated city wall, but a defense system with the city wall as the main body and a large number of cities, barriers, pavilions and beacons. The history of the construction of the Great Wall can be traced back to the Western Zhou Dynasty, and the princes of the Beacon Fire Opera originated from here. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the countries competed for hegemony and defended each other, and the construction of the Great Wall entered the first climax, but the length of the construction at this time was relatively short. After Qin destroyed the Six Kingdoms and unified the world, Qin Shi Huang connected and repaired the Great Wall of the Warring States Period, which was known as the Great Wall of Ten Thousand Miles. All dynasties and dynasties will build the Great Wall, and even more so in the Ming Dynasty, since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the construction of the Great Wall has never stopped.

The Great Wall that Zhu Huan was referring to at this time was Shanhaiguan.

Shanhaiguan, known as "the first pass in the world", built the city and built the customs in the 14th year of Hongwu, because it is called Shanhaiguan because of its mountain and sea. The circumference of Shanhaiguan City is about 4 thousand meters, it is connected with the Great Wall, the city is the pass, the city is 14 meters high, 7 meters thick, there are four main city gates, the arrow tower, the Jingbian building, the pastoral camp building, the Linlu building, the urn city and the plain Great Wall of nearly 1,400 meters.

The border between the Liaodong Prefecture and Yongping Mansion is the Great Wall in the Shanhaiguan area.

Shanhaiguan guards Shanhaiwei, and the meaning of Shanhaiwei's existence is to resist the invasion of the remnants of the Northern Yuan, whose enemies are the barbarians in the north, not their own army. The commander of Shanhaiwei was neutral on both sides of Jingnan, and the Liaodong Army attacked Yongping Mansion several times, and the only way to pass through was Shanhaiguan, but Shanhaiwei never stopped it.

This is not to say that the commander of Shanhaiwei is on Jianwen's side, because if Yongpingwei wants to pass through Shanhaiguan, Shanhaiwei will still let him go. However, Yongping Wei is no more than 10,000 people, and it is really a fool's dream to cross the Great Wall to fight Liaodong.

"The Liaodong army crossed the Great Wall, but they will definitely leave their baggage troops outside the Great Wall to prevent forcing Yongpingwei to attack their logistics with all their might." Zhu Huan said: "But what if we set up an ambush outside the Great Wall from the beginning? ”

"What do you mean?"

"Balipu." Zhu Huan said firmly: "Balipu is the closest place to the Great Wall in Liaodong, and their baggage troops will definitely be concentrated here to standby." ”

Yan Gang hugged his fists and said: "Although the prince is deployed, the ministers will definitely do their best to complete it!" ”

"Good." Zhu Huan said: "Cao Xiu, you lead the tiger and leopard cavalry to unite with Yan Gang's white horse Yicong, cross the Great Wall from my mouth together, attack Balipu, and besiege Balipu. ”

"Huh?"

Cao Xiu was stunned: "Are the ministers going too?" ”

"Yes, Yan Gang's Baima Yi has only more than 2,000 people left from now, and although Balipu is a baggage force, it is impossible to beat Yan Gang with these horses. This time, you are the commander, and Yan Gang and Chang Sen are the deputy generals. Zhu Huan said.

Cao Xiu said with some embarrassment: "Lord Wang, if the minister leads the tiger and leopard to ride out of the customs, won't there be no guards around you?" ”

Zhu Huan's personal guards have always been tiger and leopard riders, and Cao Xiu is his personal guard. When Cao Xiu was away, he was temporarily replaced by Yan Gang.

However, this time, Cao Xiu and Yan Gang had to go, and the guards around Zhu Huan were empty.

"What are you afraid of, this king is sitting in Yongping, tens of thousands of troops, who can hurt me at all?"

Zhu Huan saw that Cao Xiu was a little reluctant, and said solemnly: "This battle is related to the overall situation, whether you can take Liaodong or not, it depends on whether Yang Wen can be left behind this time, there is no need to discuss." ”

Seeing that Zhu Huan was so upright, Cao Xiu was reluctant in his heart, so he could only accept: "No." ”

"After waiting for the main force of the Liaodong Army to cross the Great Wall, the main force of our army will consolidate Yongping Mansion, with the Jinan Army and Yongping Wei as the front army troops, and Wei Wushu will protect the left and right wings, responsible for the garrison behind the sheep and horse wall, and contain the main force of the enemy army in the frontal battlefield." Zhu Huan said: "Cao Xiu, you are responsible for the entire line of the battlefield behind the enemy, and implement the strategic policy of encircling but not fighting the enemy's baggage troops. ”

"No!"

"Chang Sen, you led your troops to ambush outside Shanhaiguan. This king will suppress the main force of the Liaodong Army on the frontal battlefield, even if Yang Wen wants to send reinforcements back to help Balipu, but there are restrictions on the Great Wall, and the reinforcement troops should not exceed 5,000, can you shoulder the heavy responsibility of sending reinforcements? ”

Chang Sen said: "Don't worry, the prince will live up to his expectations." ”

He knew it was an opportunity.

Zhu Huan never trusted Chang Sen from beginning to end, and the reason why he still kept him was because his ability made Zhu Huan reluctant to kill.

But if Chang Sen has not shown value to Zhu Huan to use, then what awaits him will be Zhu Huan's merciless obliteration.

owes 2,000 lives to King Qi's mansion, and Zhu Huan has never forgotten it.

However, now Chang Sen's situation is very embarrassing, he needs to prove his ability to Zhu Huan, but he has no chance to show his ability because Zhu Huan does not trust him.

"The Sword Comes"

And this time, the opportunity came.

The Battle of Liaodong was Zhu Huan's last battle.

If you win, the troops will be based in Liaodong, check and balance Zhu Di, and look at the world. If you lose, you will have nothing, and you will defend the place without danger, and you will only wait for death after the defeat of the army, this is the price of turning your face with Zhu Di.

However, Zhu Huan handed over the role of reinforcements on the battlefield behind enemy lines to Chang Sen in such a major battle.

Chang Sen understood what Zhu Huan wanted to express.

This is Zhu Huan's opportunity to let Chang Sen prove that he has value to use.

If the record in this battle is mediocre, Zhu Huan will not kill Chang Sen, but he will not give Chang Sen a chance to lead the troops again, and there is a high probability that Chang Sen will be thrown to a place with a corner to retire, and he will be transferred out when he can use it.

If this battle is defeated and returns, delaying Zhu Huan's strategy of encircling the point to send reinforcements, then Chang Sen can choose a place to dig a grave for himself.

If this battle Changsen shines, the merit will be complete. Then this is his chance to really enter the core of King Qi's Mansion, and it is even expected that the "Qi Four Tigers" will become the "Qi Five Tigers".

So this battle Chang Sen must be won, and it must be a complete victory.

Because only in this way can he be favored by Zhu Huan and not spin on the edge of King Qi's mansion.

Drunk to pick up the lamp to look at the sword, dreaming back to blow the horn company camp. Eight hundred miles of fire, fifty strings turned over the outside sound, and the battlefield was an autumn soldier.

Yongping Wei was in full array, and Chen Bing waited for the enemy's attack.

Zhu Huan stood at the head of the city, let the cold wind be bleak, he still did not move like a mountain.

Inside and outside the city, all of them are soldiers, and they are all full of fighting spirit.

Wu Qi stood behind Zhu Huan and asked, "Is the prince sighing?" ”

"Yes, in this situation, this king can't help but want to chant a poem." Zhu Huan felt like mountains and rivers in his heart, and said slowly: "Let's go to Quantai to recruit the old department." ”

Although it was only half a sentence, Wu Qi already had a straight face and wanted to hear Zhu Huan's next sentence.

Zhu Huan grinned: "I'm going to Quantai to recruit the old department, and I'll kill the fucking stupid Yama with a banner of 100,000!" ”

Wu Qi: ???

……

"Stump, Tread, Tread—"

The towering Great Wall, like a giant dragon entrenched on the white earth, makes people can't help but worship it.

A thousand years ago, General Meng Tian built the Great Wall, but the enemy was 700 miles away, what kind of spirit should he have?

The horses' hooves were endless, leaving strings of black horseshoe prints on the snow-white frost surface.

"As the saying goes, there is no reason for the west out of Yangguan, and now that we are outside the gate, there will be no more people." Chang Sen said to Cao Xiu with a smile: "General Cao, the only friendly troops outside the gate are you and me, and I hope to take care of you." ”

Cao Xiu glanced at him coldly, unwilling to deal with it, and walked forward by himself.

"General Cao, you don't look down on me?" Chang Sen followed and asked.

"What do you think?"

Cao Xiu said coldly: "From the beginning, I looked down on you, in the Qi Palace, you may be better than Yan Gang and Qi Jiguang, but I just don't look down on you." ”

"Why?"

"Do you need me to say?"

"Tell me about it."

"Okay, then I'll tell you why!"

Cao Xiu stopped, grabbed Chang Sen's chest, and there was undisguised anger in his eyes: "I tell you, because of you, we have two thousand brothers and two thousand one hundred and eight brothers!" I remember every name of all of them, because of you, they left us forever, leaving the Qi Mansion that they swore to protect. I don't look down on you, not because they died, but because they died, but you who killed them are still alive, allowing a person who has no value to the Qi Wangfu to survive! ”

After the First World War in Jining Mansion, Yan Gang regretted his recklessness, but Cao Xiu never mentioned it again.

But his hatred is never less than Yan Gang, but he is never a person who talks about hatred, he will remember the anger of hatred and always remember it in his heart.

Dou Ziang, Yi Bo, Qiu Shen, Jin Feijie, Fei Yingrui, Mi Jingguo, Hu Hongshuang......

Cao Xiu can remember the names of all the soldiers who died in that battle.

"General Cao."

Chang Sen changed his frivolity in the past, and said: "After this war, I will let you look down on me." ”

Cao Xiu turned around and left, leaving only one sentence: "Who can't say big things?" ”

……

When Cao Xiu led his troops across the Great Wall, Yongping Mansion was already burning with flames of war.

There are two flags on the battlefield, one is the Qiwang Banner and the other is the Great Ming Sun and Moon Flag.

"Kill!"

The vanguard cavalry of the Liaodong Army roared and rushed towards the banner of King Qi, thousands of troops and horses, as if it was a monstrous wave, there was nothing to fear them, and countless horses' hooves trampled on it, making the earth tremble.

However, before they could reach the sheep and horse wall outside the city walls, large numbers of cavalry had already fallen.

The war horse seemed to have broken its leg and fell directly to the ground, and the cavalry who had not yet reacted threw themselves directly to the ground, gushing blood.

Blood poured from the horses' hooves, mixed with the snow and turned into dirty mud.

"What's going on?" Yang Wen, who personally supervised the battle, frowned slightly when he saw this scene.

"General Hui! The enemy scattered countless horse nails in the snow and buried them under the snow, making it extremely difficult to distinguish. If we want to know these thistles, our army must stop the offensive and clean up slowly. ”

"Clean up the fart, will the enemy archers watch us go and clean up slowly, press up!"

"No!"

Beneath the snow, there are rusty iron thorns. This thing is called the iron thistle pear, commonly known as the horse nail, a thing that has existed since the Warring States period, four inches high, eight inches wide.

The thing that makes this thing a layer of legend has to be Zhuge Liang's last expedition to the Northern Expedition of Qishan. During Zhuge Liang's last Northern Expedition, he died of illness in Wuzhangyuan. Although Jiang Wei and others followed Zhuge Liang's will and planned to let the 100,000 Shu army return to Shu, who is Sima Yi? He was a military master who could be compared to Zhuge Liang, so Sima Yi quickly decided that Zhuge Liang had died of illness and led a large army to chase after him.

At this critical juncture, Yang Yi of the Shu army suddenly remembered Zhuge Liang's will, and he sent people to quickly make a large number of iron thistles and sprinkle them along the retreat of the Shu army. When Sima Yi saw the thistles along the way, he immediately came up with an idea, he had thousands of infantry wear thick-soled wooden shoes and eliminate them as they went. But in this way, Sima Yi's cavalry could not maneuver quickly, and could only follow behind these thousands of infantry. By the time Sima Yi finished dealing with these thistles, the Shu army had already withdrawn to China.

The reason why these thistles are rusty and mottled is because they have been left in a damp warehouse for warmth.

Clostridium tetani produces tetanus toxins, which can infect and damage the motor nervous system, affecting some of the body's muscles, causing paroxysmal and tonic spasms.

Although it is not so much that you will die on the spot, in the Ming Dynasty, where there was no tetanus antitoxin, being stabbed by this rusty and mottled Zama nail is basically equivalent to leaving a name in black and white impermanence.

"Ahh

There was a roar on the snow, and a cavalryman of the Liaodong Army who was pierced through the arm by an iron thistle pear after falling off his horse actually directly swung his knife and cut off his arm!

The gushing blood was sprinkled on the frost and snow, so the cavalry had to tighten their teeth, tore off the strips of cloth from their clothes, wrapped the severed limbs, and simply stopped the bleeding.

There is no way around it, and in this day and age, there are only two ways to deal with tetanus.

One is to burn a red-hot iron on the wound immediately after the wound is infected, and kill the virus at high temperature before the toxin spreads.

However, on the battlefield, where is the time for him to burn his weapon red and then kill the virus?

So this is the simple, crude and bloody way that remains: the infected area is removed before the toxin spreads.

The injured man was not sure if he was infected, but he knew that if he did, he would die.

He can't gamble his life on luck.

"Kill!"

The bones were thick, and the pale snow was covered in blood.

The arrows were like rain, and the only way to resist the attack of the defenders was to rush down!

"Plop—"

The horse's hooves stepped over the snow, and suddenly the snow collapsed, and the cavalry of the Liaodong Army, which was caught off guard, fell into the pit with men and horses.

"Pss

The antler spears and bamboo sticks had already been buried in the trap pit, stabbing the cavalry and war horses to the heart, and blood gushed out.

The cavalrymen who had just survived the horse nail fell into the horse trap in a hurry, and the good ones had war horses on their backs, but they fell into a lot of meat and eight vegetarians, and the heads of the bad ones were directly pierced, and the red and white things were sprinkled on the ground.

"Don't stop, charge!"

When Yang Wen saw this scene, he tightened his teeth.

Falling into a pit, this is something that cannot be avoided.

The battlefield is changing rapidly, there is no way to deal with this kind of emergency, you can only use human life to fill it, whether it is a horse nail or a horse pit, you must use human life to pave the way, rush over with a hard top, and kill a way!

"Shoot the arrows!"

A rain of arrows flew out of the city, and a piece of the Liaodong army fell under the rain of arrows, but they were not afraid of this, but rushed more and more, and attacked the city without fear of death!

"Boom, boom—"

The artillery fire continued, there were stumps and broken arms everywhere, and the charred corpses of the flesh and blood mold lake were everywhere.

The two layers of horse-rejecting piles have been smashed to pieces, and even the horse pit has been filled by the corpses of the horses and soldiers.

It's war, bloody, but everyone fights for what they believe in!

"Report! A small part of the enemy army has broken through the sheep and horse wall! ”

"Guo Liang, go over, even if you use corpses, you have to block the sheep and horse wall!"

"No!"

……

"Kill!"

The Yongping Mansion was scorching with bloody war, and Balipu outside the gate was also caught in the scorching flames of war.

The cavalry that jumped out of nowhere suddenly appeared in front of the baggage troops of the Liaodong Army, and the escorting troops were taken by surprise, and the defensive front was killed before it was arranged.

"Resist, resist!"

The general of the baggage force shouted: "Their offensive is weakened, as long as we drag reinforcements to us, we will definitely win!" ”

He was waiting for reinforcements, and their enemy forces were also waiting for their reinforcements.

"Don't worry, play with them." Cao Xiu said calmly: "The baggage troops of the Liaodong Army have basically lost their combat capability, and we have won since their defense line collapsed. ”

Yan Gang grinned and said, "If it weren't for our deliberate suppression of strength, the baggage troops of the Liaodong Army would have turned into a sea of fire now. ”

"You harass them every half hour, don't let them build up a line." Cao Xiu said.

Bai Ma Yi joined forces with the tiger and leopard cavalry and completely defeated the baggage troops of the Liaodong Army.

However, Cao Xiu was not in a hurry to eat this piece of fat immediately, but constantly sent cavalry to break down the formation of the baggage troops. In the face of this unsuspenseful attack, they have no power to resist every impact.

"Next, it's up to Chang Sen." Yan Gang said.

"I don't believe him." Cao Xiu said vigorously: "If Chang Sen's reinforcements fail, we will immediately crush all the enemy's baggage troops, burn him with a fire, and then return from my mouth by the same way." ”

Cao Xiu had already left his back hand.

If Chang Sen can't eat the reinforcements of the Liaodong Army, he will be able to eat the baggage troops of the Liaodong Army, and then quickly withdraw the army.

He had never trusted Chang Sen, and in his heart, only Qi Sihu and His Royal Highness King Qi could be trusted.
