Chapter 118: The soldiers went out of the mountains and rivers and collapsed in the Makino Plains (I)

"At the end of the day, the army went out of the mountains and rivers. ”

"At three o'clock in the afternoon, the soldiers arrived in Beiyong County!"

......

Chen Wenzhi pointed to the juncture on the sand table and said in a deep voice, dozens of military orders fell in an orderly manner, and the last gaze did fall on the mountain and river pass.

Sanchuan County, there are three large rivers flowing through it, hence the name,

The word "Sichuan" is said in ancient books;

Like the shape of the water direct, the water comes out of other water, and the ditch flows in the big water and the sea, and it is called the river water.

Shanheguan is located on the border of Sanchuan County,

Out of the mountains and rivers is Beiyong County in Liangzhou,

Since ancient times, there has been a saying that "the mountains are strong and the three auxiliaries are closed, and the door is closed and Kyushu is choked".

Shanhe Pass is one of the top ten male passes in the world.

On the east and west sides, there is the danger of forbidden ditches and deep valleys;

There are three rivers in the north to converge, and they want to go down;

Although Shanhe Pass is not the only pass between Sanchuan County and the entire Liangzhou,

Indeed, it is the nearest pass,

In the early years, the barbarians also thought about going south to Liangzhou, but it was difficult to move forward with this mountain and river pass, if the barbarians did not have the energy to go on a bypass, it was also a strong pass for the imperial court to restrain the Liangzhou iron cavalry, but now it is really a strategy to give up the benefits of the pass to meet the enemy, but now it can only be like this.

"I led the army out of Shanhe Pass, General Zhang, you led a town of men and horses as a pioneer battalion, and you must step into the border of Liangzhou at the right time to stabilize the way forward for the follow-up army. ”

"General Li Bing, you lead a town of men and horses to patrol along the upper reaches of the river, so that the enemy will not block the river and attack halfway!"

"Wang Zongbing, you led a town of people and horses out of Qingxia, there is a strong city called Wangnan outside Qingxia, which was originally for Qingxia to rely on the defense of barbarians to enter the customs, but in the past 20 years, the barbarians have not even set foot in the border of Liangzhou, so it must have been combed for a long time, although now that Xu Wu Chen Bing Beiyong County also knows the importance of that city, but that Liangzhou is only three towns. ”

"Xu Wu's troops are now overstretched, not to mention that the Liangzhou soldiers are not good at defending the city, I will give you a town of men and horses to take this city, and then it will be nailed there like a nail, this is the second retreat of the army. ”

......

"In case of trouble, the general soldiers of all walks of life are allowed to make their own decisions!"

After the military order was issued, Chen Wenzhi hesitated for a moment and finally spoke.

"The last general, Zhang Weien takes the order!"

"The last general, Wang Conglong takes the order!"

"The Last General ,......"

The generals rushed down and walked out of the tent to prepare.

This time to send troops, Chen Wenzhi has done the extreme.

There are a mix of people from all walks of life, and the most critical pioneer battalion is the border army drawn from the south, and the person who also leads the troops is also the original chief soldier Wang Conglong.

From beginning to end, Chen Wenzhi did not have the slightest intention of disrupting the establishment, although it was not conducive to the commander-in-chief of the generals, but once it was disrupted, it was inevitable that the soldiers would not know the generals and the generals would not know the soldiers, and the combat strength would drop suddenly, so the plan for today can only be like this.

As for self-determination, it is also a last resort,

On defending the city, Chen Wenzhi's self-confidence is not lost to the rest of the people,

can command an army of hundreds of thousands of people who are really beyond their own power,

After all, it is rare for a thousand years for a person who can calmly command an army of millions on his own throughout the ages, and even there is only one person recorded in the history books.

At the end of the sub-hour,

In the whole tent,

Except for a few middle-aged scribes, there was no one else, and all the generals who received the orders had already gone to the army to prepare, and for a while it seemed a little empty, and there was no abnormal sound from the sound of the pen and the crackling of firewood.

"Ahem......"

Next to the sand table,

Chen Wenzhi took out a white handkerchief to cover his mouth, coughed lightly, looked very haggard, and put the white handkerchief behind him without a trace, blocking the red blood.

"Gong Chen, the wind in the north is a bit biter. ”

"Don't get the wind chill anymore. ”

Wei Mingfu brought a bowl of ginger soup and served it beside Chen Wenzhi,

Looking at the figures outside the tent, I was inexplicably a little worried.

"Well, I'm tired of Grandpa Wei. ”

Chen Wenzhi took the warm ginger soup and drank it all, looking at the layout on the sand table, his brows quietly stretched a little, but when his eyes fell on the scale on the drip of the copper kettle on the side, he subconsciously wrinkled, and the time was still tight.

"Gong Chen, Gong Qin had already done his best that morning. ”

"Don't blame it. ”

After taking the empty bowl, Wei Mingfu couldn't help but speak.

"I think about myself, what's the wonder?"

"Qin Xiang's kindness, I Chen Wenzhi is unforgettable, if I lose this battle, I should serve the country with my body, if I win, I can't go back to Beijing, and I have to make him drunk. ”

Chen Wenzhi smiled, but his back was inexplicably a little sluggish.

"Gong Chen, this battle is sure to win!"

"Borrow the auspicious words of my father-in-law!"

Chen Gong smiled.

Wei Mingfu put the bowl and added firewood to the brazier in the big tent.

After all, he is a slave of the heavenly family, and the aspect of serving people is naturally meticulous, but not everyone can enjoy it, groveling in the palace is a slave, and when he arrives in the place, he is a real uncle, this may be what he wants, and he doesn't care about others scolding a eunuch without eggs behind his back, but you have to give enough face in person, this kind of distorted thinking is applicable to most eunuchs.

But Wei Mingfu didn't feel any strange eyes from Chen Wenzhi, and he was really regarded as a completed person, so he was willing to do more.

He walked out of the tent and uncovered the earthen pot with a white cloth.

In the boiling clay pot, there are also ginseng and angelica, which are medicinal materials that replenish qi and blood.

"Gong Chen, you must take care of your body. ”

"Daqing National Fortune still depends on you now!"

Wei Mingfu sighed and continued to add firewood to it.

......

When it is ugly,

Looking down from the sky,

The entire Chinese army camp is preparing for tomorrow's battle in an orderly manner, and the three holy decrees of the imperial court have fallen, and no matter what, there must be a battle tomorrow to round the face of the imperial court.

"Gong Chen, it's time for Yin. ”

"Warm up with a sip of hot soup. ”

Wei Mingfu looked at Chen Wenzhi, who was still pondering on the edge of the sand table, and reminded softly, and handed out the warm ginseng soup in his hand.

"I have a heart. ”

Chen Wenzhi took a sip and looked at Wei Mingfudao.

"Get out of the bill. ”

After Chen Wenyi finished drinking, he untied the big coat on his shoulders and walked out of the tent.

"By the way, when will Gonggong Wei return to Beijing?"

"When the army is opened, I am afraid that the hospitality will not be good. ”

Chen Wenzhi lifted the curtain of the big tent with his right hand, stunned in mid-air, and turned his head to look at Wei Mingfu.

"Your Majesty naturally has someone around to serve you, and it is okay for the old slave to return to Beijing, but I just saw that Chen Gong's health is different, so our family should stay by Chen Gong's side. ”

"We don't have the ability to go into battle and kill the enemy. ”

"But I can also pay attention to Chen Gong's body. ”

Wei Mingfu remembered the scene where Chen Wenzhi's white pap covered his mouth earlier, and he was inexplicably a little sad, a decree from the veteran of the year of the sixtieth year was transferred from the southernmost part of Daqing thousands of miles away to the northernmost point, all the way to the tiring journey, coupled with the exhaustion of worrying about the war, I am afraid that it has also reached the limit, far from looking so calm.

"I'm thinking too much. ”

Chen Wenzhi sighed, and the carefulness of the eunuch was really far better than ordinary people.

"The sword has no eyes on the battlefield, so Gonggong Wei should go back to Beijing. ”

"Chen Gong guards the country for Daqing, and the old slave should serve by Chen Gong's side, which can be regarded as a contribution to the country, as for the sword without eyes, if the old slave dies at this pass, His Majesty will mention the name of the old minister and praise the loyal slave twice. ”

Wei Mingfu followed closely behind him, looking solemn.

Dissatisfied with Chen Gong said that before the old slave left the palace, he went to the clean room and brought out the baby, and he had no regrets about dying with a full beard and a full tail. ”

"A long time ago, the old slave also claimed a few orphans outside the capital, for them to eat, wear, and study, and did not ask for anything else, but let them hang a surname Wei, if there is no promotion in the future, I feel that the name of the eunuch as a father is ugly, and I can also restore my original surname. ”

"I just hope that at the end of the next year, I can add a few incense sticks and burn some yellow paper money, and the old slave can be scolded twice by the ancestors when he goes to Huangquan. ”

"Lord Chen smiled, we eunuchs don't have much thought. ”

Chen Wenzhi's stunned kung fu Wei Mingfu laughed at himself again.

"There are many princes in the court who are not as good as you. ”

Chen Wenzhi was stunned, forgetting Wei Mingfu, and said solemnly.

......

At the beginning of the day,

The Chinese army camp has been assembled, and as far as the eye can see,

The men and horses of the other two battalions were also ready to go.

The Chinese army camp is only dozens of miles away from the mountains and rivers.

The army has long been assembled,

Two hours of effort is naturally enough,

More than ten miles outside the mountains and rivers is the big river,

There have already been people who have begun to build pontoon bridges, the original old bridge naturally does not allow hundreds of thousands of Chinese troops to pass calmly, nearly 100,000 people to build the bridge to see the situation, when the army arrives here, the pontoon bridge can be built.

In addition, the soldiers and horses of a town that had set off early had already patrolled up the banks of the river, kicking up puffs of smoke and dust.

At the end of the day,

Standing on the mountain and river gates, looking far away,

The surface of the river has been paved with pontoon bridges, and they are connected by iron locks, so that even if you ride through them on iron, you can walk on the ground.

Looking at the Liangzhou sentry with red clothes and black armor from a distance,

But the situation of the army attacking halfway did not appear,

Chen Wenzhi didn't give Xu Wu that chance,

Most of the 50,000 vanguard troops in a town are cavalry, and they have begun to spread forward like a tide on the boundary of Beiyong County, even if they encounter enemy troops at this time, they can also provide cover for the follow-up army to cross the river.

When the sun is high at three quarters of noon,

A few hours of work,

The entire forty-fifth army has set foot on the land of Liangzhou.

The sun is high, there is water vapor steaming on the surface of the river, and the end is tidal.

"Wang Conglong, don't let the old man down. ”

Chen Wenzhi wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, and looked in the direction of Qingxia from afar, although the imperial court's will has come down, and it is inevitable for the army to go out of Liangzhou, but it still leaves a way to retreat, even if the army is defeated, it will not let this army be buried in this Liangzhou territory.

"Xu Wu, the old man is here!"

"All the troops are out!"

Chen Wenzhi shouted, and the riders scattered,

The army is divided into three armies, the left and the right,

The forward 50,000, the Chinese army 200,000, the left and right roads each of the 100,000, or 400,000 people who escorted grain and grass to the heavy baggage, began to press into the Liangzhou camp in the north, and the crowds were overwhelming from afar, like locusts crossing the border to devour everything they encountered on the way.

......

Beiyong-gun,

From a distance, there was a team of sentries riding one man and three horses, and they were in the dust.

is hurrying to the camp, speaking of which, the Mongolian iron cavalry in the previous life can reach four or five horses per person at its most generous, and the swiftness as the wind is brought into full play, but there are not so many horses that can be used in the Liangzhou army, except for the Liangzhou heavy armored iron cavalry and a few personal soldiers, most of them are one person and one horse, and this is still the result of Xu Wu's painstaking cultivation for twenty years.

Compared with the camp of the Chinese army in Liangzhou, compared with the camp of Bei'an County, which is well-fortified, the temporary camp is much simpler, but if you look closely, the camp is loose on the outside and tight on the inside, and the law is tight, and it does not give people an opportunity to take advantage of.

The Great Tent of the Chinese Army,

"Your Majesty, the Qingguo army has left the mountains and rivers pass, and now it has set foot on the boundary of Beiyong County. ”

A lieutenant got down on his knees and made a noise.

"His grandmother's legs!"

"The old tortoise has finally left his king. ”

Hearing this, Zhu Yuankui laughed and scolded, he had been fighting against him for so long, and his big knife was already lonely.

"It seems that the pressure on the imperial court is really not small. ”

Xu Wu also breathed a sigh of relief, if Chen Wenzhi did not move, even if he went around in a big circle, bypassing the mountains and rivers and going south to Sanchuan County, he would sigh with joy in the face of the ironclad camp and various fortifications.

However, when the 500,000 army stepped on the border of Liangzhou, it was like a ball of fat hanging on his mouth.

Eat is bound to eat,

Even if you break your stomach, you have to swallow it forcibly.

"Qingfeng, how are the two towns of Makino's iron cavalry prepared?"

Xu Wu looked at Bai Qingfeng intently.

"Your Majesty, the iron cavalry of the two towns in the border pass of the North Land has been transferred to Makino yesterday. ”

Bai Qingfeng knelt down on one knee and replied,

At this moment, the entire Chinese army's tent was solemn, and the moment Xu Wu opened his mouth, the battle had already begun.

"There is not a single soldier in the area of Yumen Pass. ”

"Then Chen Wenzhi had no choice but to send troops, and my Liangzhou was not fighting for his life. ”

"I hope that Your Highness can disrupt the pace of the barbarians going south in the Gobi in the north, even if it can't be delayed for a while, I will go north as a soldier to pacify those barbarians. ”

Cao Xianzhi sighed lightly.

"Don't worry about it first, you should believe in Your Highness now. ”

Bai Qingfeng said when he heard this.

"Well, since the Makino soldiers and horses have arrived, then I won't say much. ”

"This game has been played for so long, and it's time to see the real thing. ”

Xu Wu frowned slightly dissatisfied, but it was also an attack.

"Bai Qingfeng, you lead a town of people to be the vanguard. ”

"Qu Xingwei, Yu Xinyin, you and others lead half of the town for the left and right wings. ”

"The rest of the town is the Chinese army, and I personally lead the troops. ”

"Cao Xianzhi, you go to Muye to lead the men and horses of the two towns, and wait for the troops to rush and kill yourself!"

Xu Wu ordered.

"Your Majesty!"

"The minister has been waiting for so long, but he can't let this surnamed Bai gnaw on the meat, let me wait with the Chinese army I am afraid that I won't be able to drink a mouthful of soup, I know that it is better to go to the north with His Highness to kill the barbarians. ”

Zhu Yuankui hurriedly spoke after hearing his own order, but everyone in the big tent also knew his meaty temperament, and no one cared about him.

"Your Majesty, the commanders are reasonable, and I can cooperate with Your Majesty if I stay in the Chinese army, but I don't ......"

Bai Qingfeng surprisingly did not refute when he heard this, but spoke.

"Brother Bai still knows my mind. ”

"In that case, it is what you want. ”

"Zhu Yuankui listens to the order, you lead a town of people to be the vanguard. ”

Xu Wu smiled dumbly, and he really had his own plans in his heart.

"The last general, Cao Xianzhi, listen to the order!"

"The last general Qu Xingwei, listen to the order!"

"The last general is Xinyin, listen to the order!"

"The last general, Zhu Yuankui, listen to the order!"

When the words fell, everyone knelt on the ground and fell with a bang.

"All the troops are out!"

The 150,000 Liangzhou Iron Cavalry was divided into three roads and went to the junction of the two counties like a tide, as if the murderous aura of substance was permeating the vast land of Liangzhou.

......

At the time of unitary,

Red glow can be faintly seen on the horizon.

Chen Wenzhi, who was sitting on horseback, slowly raised his right hand.

"The Lord will command to stop advancing!"

"The Lord will command to stop advancing!"

"The Lord will command to stop advancing!"

The flag was raised, the horses were scattered, and the orders were given one by one,

The hundreds of thousands of troops that were surging forward slowly stopped, and the two border armies began to converge, and dozens of sentry horses came out of formation and began to patrol the perimeter for the army.

In the chaotic sound of horses' hooves,

The generals in the army flocked to Chen Wenzhi's back.

"General Chen, set up a village here?"

A general soldier surveyed the terrain around him and asked.

"Zhai?"

"No!"

"Wait, wait for the Butcher of the Northland!"

Chen Wenzhi ignored the words of the general soldier, and just stared at the map in his hand, calculating the time and distance of the march.

"That Xu Wu marched and fought like an antelope hanging its horns, and there was no trace to be found. ”

"But there is only one point, this fat meat is very gluttonous, not to mention that he has no capital to drag it down in Liangzhou, whether it is to test his strength or take advantage of my camp to stabilize, there will be a battle today!"

Chen Wenzhi looked ahead,

Dozens of orders went down and the army of hundreds of thousands began to form formations.

Although there is some confusion between the ranks, it is basically the same, after all, it is hundreds of thousands of miscellaneous armies from all walks of life who can do this, and Chen Wenzhi is already very remarkable.

"Gong Chen, the end of the formation is like an arm, and you can't do it. ”

Although Wei Mingfu on the side is not familiar with military affairs, he is also amazed to look at this magnificent scene, you must know that there are 200,000 forbidden troops mixed in here.

An hour has passed,

It's the end of the unitary time,

There was already a commotion in the army, but there was still no enemy in sight.

"Don't be impatient!"

Chen Wenzhi was still as steady as an old dog, staring at the front.

"Knock! knock! knock!"

The ground began to shake lightly, and tiny stones were splashed,

The dull sound beat like a drum in the hearts of the people.

On the horizon,

A Xu character embroidered with a black dragon appeared in the eyes of everyone,

The red-clothed and black-armored Liangzhou Iron Rider followed,

Like the waters that connect the heavens and the earth,

Rushing towards their own formation.
