Lu Fei said to Wu Jie: "Hun one, let Wu Jing see the joke." Wu Jie laughed and said: "I like Brother Zhao's fierce temperament, he will be in Japan for a long time, and he will slowly obey military orders." Lu Fei nodded: "I hope so, it's just that my brother is too strong, I'm afraid that he will do stupid things, such as hunger strikes, and I hope Wu Jingluo will take care of it." Wu Jie said with a smile: "It's easy to say, even if you go to Dasanguan, take care of Brother Zhao and leave it to Wu." At this time, Ling Xue'er walked up to Luo Tianchu and said in a low voice, "I'll go with you too." Luo Tianchu smiled apologetically and shook his head. Wu Xuan said: "The big war is imminent, we will immediately escort the emperor to Hanzhong, if there is a mistake, we can't afford to take the blame." Zhao Huanhuan said firmly: "If the palace does not leave, this battle is very important, and the palace is a royal family and can retreat from the battle." If Sichuan and Shaanxi are lost, the Great Song Dynasty is in danger, where can the palace go? The generals were greatly moved.

After returning to the hall, Wu Luan, Lu Fei, and Yang Zuoyi bid farewell to everyone and led three thousand Song troops to Dasan Pass to garrison. At the beginning of Luo Tianchu, when Zhu Yu, Lu Yi also ordered 5,000 soldiers and prepared to rush to Shencha Village. Luo Tianchu asked the soldiers to bring fifty 'three-bow bed crossbows' and a thousand 'divine arm crossbows', and only these two long-range weapons could withstand the cavalry of the Jin Kingdom. Before leaving, they went to visit Dong Guo Wendao, who was still seriously injured, and the 'Ziyang Pill' of the Zhengyi faction had excellent efficacy, and the breath in his body was basically unblocked, but he still couldn't get lucky, and it would take more than a month to fully recover. Dongguo Wendao was also quick-tempered, and he was annoyed that he couldn't participate in the war. Gongsun Mingyue said to Luo Tianchu: "You don't want to fight in Shencha Village, just frustrate the enemy's spirit." A thousand pounds of weight are on you, and you are injured, don't be reckless. Luo Tianchu said: "Yes! ”

Half an hour later, five thousand soldiers were ready to go. Luo Tianchu and Lu Yi arrived at the playground early and finished the lecture. Luo Tianchu thought about why Xiao Zhu hadn't come yet, could it be that the love between children and daughters was not over, and he had forgotten the time? Just thinking about it, he saw Zhu Yushi and He Yuelian coming together, and He Yuelian said softly, "You take care." He walked away and stood with Ling Xue'er. Ling Xue'er smiled evilly and said two words in her ear, He Yuelian's face was even redder, and her pink fist hit lightly, while Ling Xue'er grinned and snickered. Luo Tian's expression was in a trance when he first saw Zhu Yu, thoughtful, and said in a low voice: "We are going to the battlefield, if you are undecided, stay here." Zhu Yushi hurriedly said: "Who said that I am uncertain, even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, I am not afraid!" Luo Tianchu smiled: "Did Miss He say something to you that made you so righteous?" Zhu Yushi showed a happy smile on his face and nodded. If in normal times, Luo Tianchu would definitely break the casserole and ask to the end, but now that the army is about to set off, he has no choice but to give up, wave his hand, and say in a loud voice: "Brothers, go, let Jin Bing see how powerful we are!" Five thousand soldiers lined up and walked out of the monk plain, and Wu Jie and the others sent two miles before they gave up.

Two hours later, they arrived at Shencha Village, and all the Song troops in the village had been transferred to Dasanguan, and the camp tents and defense facilities were all there, which saved a lot of trouble. Luo Tianchu ordered the soldiers to cut down trees, built ten wooden platforms three zhang high and seven zhang wide, and placed fifty 'three-bow bed crossbows' on them. He also divided the 1,000 'Divine Arm Crossbow' team into four echelons to practice cooperating with the release of arrows. After everything was in order, Luo Tianchu took a break in the big tent of the Chinese army, and Zhu Yushi changed the dressing for his wound and said: "Although you have skin trauma, it is also quite serious, and you have to recuperate for at least ten days and a half months as an ordinary person, and you have to go to the battlefield to fight." Luo Tianchu said: "I heard Yue Yun say that even if the soldiers of their Yue family army broke their arms, they would not go down to the battlefield lightly, what is my injury." You accompany me to the front of the village gate to have a look, I want to set up a few more pits. ”

When the two walked to the front of the village, Luo Tianchu chose a few places and said: "Let the brothers make a fire to cook first, and after they are full, dig these places into pits, which are filled with sharp stones and wooden thorns, even if they can't kill many golden soldiers, they can limit their marching speed." Hey, you see the scenery here is beautiful, the river is clear, but soon the corpses will be like mountains, and the blood will stain the river. Zhu Yushi said: "Before that, I have to drink a few more sips of this water." As he spoke, he squatted on the ground, took a few sips of water in both hands, and praised: "This clear ginger river water is cool and sweet, come and taste it." ”

Luo Tianchu said 'yes', and suddenly remembered something and froze in place, Zhu Yushi called him a few times but did not respond. Luo Tianchu lost his voice and said: "Oh no, I forgot something." Just as Lu Yi also walked out of the gate and asked, "Forgot something." Luo Tianchu said: "Our water sources all come from the Qingjiang River, if the Jin soldiers cut off the upstream, we will have no water to drink, and then there will be no war and chaos." Lu Yi said: "Can we dig a few wells in the village?" Luo Tianchu shook his head and said: "If there was water in the ground, General Yang would have dug it out a long time ago." Zhu Yushi said: "Then we will dig a canal now and introduce water into the village?" Luo Tianchu said: "It's still an old problem, as long as the upstream water source is intercepted, what canal is also a dry canal." Lu Yidao: "Is there no way at all?" Luo Tianchu pondered for a long time and sighed: "There is no way, unless I give me another 20,000 troops to hold the upper reaches of the Qingjiang River." Zhu Yushi hurriedly said: "If you don't withdraw the army, it's okay to concentrate your forces to defend Monk Yuan." Luo Tianchu said: "Our soldiers have never been on the real battlefield, and they usually get together to make noise, which seems to be majestic, but when they really get on the battlefield, they will inevitably feel worried in the face of the 100,000 golden soldiers who have been on the battlefield for a long time." That's 100,000 gold soldiers! Even we will be nervous, let alone soldiers. If we feel like we're going to lose, then we're really defeated. The only chance is to destroy the enemy's spirit before the decisive battle and inspire the confidence of our army. Lu Yi nodded and said, "What to do now, we all listen to you." Luo Tianchu said categorically: "We will never withdraw the army until the last moment, and let the soldiers of the whole army take out all the containers that can hold water and fill them with water, and how much can be loaded." Zhu Yushi said: "What should I do after drinking the water?" Luo Tianchu smiled bitterly: "Then leave it to fate, I can't watch the soldiers die of thirst, I still have to withdraw when it is time to withdraw." Then the 5,000 soldiers began to hoard water in large quantities, filling tanks, skins, cups and bowls, and some of them cut down large trees and used their trunks to hold water, which they could store for five days.

Before dawn the next day, Luo Tianchu was awakened by a rapid knock on the door, he opened the door and saw Lu Yi's solemn face, and said: "The spies came to report that the vanguard cavalry of the Jin Kingdom has come out of Fengxiang, all of them are cavalry, I don't know how many people and horses." Luo Tianchu picked up his sword and followed him out of the big tent and asked, "Where is the Jin Bing?" Lu Yi said: "When the spies came to report that the Jin Bing was already on the edge of Weishui. Luo Tianchu exclaimed: "So soon, has the Jin Bing arrived?" Lu Yidao: "Not yet, Jin Bing did not cross the river immediately, but built ten pontoon bridges on the Wei River, and now the pontoon bridges have not been completed." Luo Tianchu was puzzled: "The river in that section is not deep, why bother to repair the bridge?" Lu Yi also said that he did not understand. Luo Tianchu said: "Who is the vanguard officer of the Jin Bing?" Lu Yi said: "Wanyan Lou Room." Luo Tianchu nodded and said, "If you don't win, you will lose first." He was afraid that in case of defeat, the Weihe River would block the speed of the retreating army, so he built a pontoon bridge. Lu Yi said: "After saying that, Yan Lou is a famous general, but in the end, he is old and timid, and he is afraid of fighting." Luo Tianchu was silent, secretly awe-inspiring in his heart, thinking that after Yan Lou's room was so famous, he could not underestimate it, this is the demeanor of a general. He glanced around and asked, "Where is Xiao Zhu?" Lu Yi said: "After he learned that the Jin soldiers were dispatched, he led the soldiers to dig the unfinished pit. Luo Tianchu said: "Let the soldiers have a full meal and prepare to meet the enemy." ”

An hour later, the Shencha village was in full array, with the shield swordsmen standing in the front row, the spearmen standing in the second row, the 'divine arm crossbowmen' standing in the third row, the archers standing in the fourth row, and finally the ten high platforms of fifty 'three-bow bed crossbows', each row five zhang apart, with enough space to change the formation. There is also a reserve force of 1,000 men, ready to follow orders. There was a shortage of horses in the village, only enough for a few leaders to ride, and everyone held their breath and waited for the big battle to come. (To be continued.) )
