"Dunmao Chaoji Ladd is the most promising hero in the northern grassland in the past century to unify the grassland tribes, but neither the grassland tribes nor the court want to see this scene. The people on the grassland are unwilling to live under others.
Yao also did not like the originally loose barbarian tribes twisting into a rope to exert force on Yao."
Zhang Ziwen and Wei Changpan, who seemed to have changed their faces, entered the house. The first thing they saw after stepping across the threshold was the map, covering Jinzhou and nearby prefectures and counties and even 200 miles north to the grassland, with terrain and water sources.
It is extremely detailed, with everything from a spring to a boxwood forest clearly marked.
Compared with this map, the map of the Wuhe Escort Bureau suddenly pales in comparison. If the Escort Bureau can have such a map, then there is no need to wait for the many ghosts and monsters along the way. They only need to change the route, and it will take less than a year.
You can also save thousands of taels of snowflake silver.
After staring at the picture for a long time, Wei Changpan finally came to his senses. Feeling that he was being disrespectful, he apologized to Song Zhiwen.
"This picture cannot be seen outside. It doesn't hurt to look at it more to gain more insights. However, there is some information on the original picture. If it leaks to the outside, not only your life will be in danger, but it is my official position as Jinzhou General.
I'll probably throw it away." Song Zhiwen said with a smile, "It doesn't matter if I give you one of Tuo's pictures."
"General!" Zhang Ziwen was shocked, "This is not a military secret..."
"It's too petty for someone who has gone through life and death for you to argue with others about these secrets." Song Zhiwen sat down on a velvet-cushioned rosewood chair and held up the copper stove to warm his hands.
He said with a smile, and then turned to Wei Changpan and Liu Ziyi, "There is no floor covering in the house, and there is no way to take off the coat. We all hold a copper stove first and sit down to talk."
Zhang Ziwen was always stubborn and refused to sit down. Song Zhiwen knew that his subordinate had a temper and did not try to persuade him, so the three of them sat around a small copper stove with a charcoal fire in the middle.
"It would be great if I could roast a sweet potato at this time." Liu Ziyi sighed casually as he tucked his neck into the warm fur on his shoulders.
"I never thought I would meet someone with the same interests." Two clear sounds of palms clapping against each other reached the ears of the soldiers outside the house. Not long after, a basket of washed red sweet potatoes was brought in. Liu Ziyi took a look at it and shook his head with some regret.
, "It's a good red potato. It's just that the mud has been washed away and it looks like I have to brush it over with a brush before I dare to give it to you, General. It would be good if the flavor of this red potato can be left to 23%."
"This is still good. I told them earlier that I wanted to eat roasted red potatoes. The people in the kitchen directly picked up two loads and picked out a few without flaws and cracks, peeled and cut them into pieces. How could this be a casual meal?
Looks like the red potato." Song Zhiwen placed the red potato next to the weaker charcoal fire, then raised his head and asked Liu Ziyi, "After reading your case file, my family is one of the most famous chefs in Jinzhou, why did I go to practice martial arts and become a knight-errant?
"
"A man should always go out and see more. Otherwise, if he spends his whole life buried in a world as small as the kitchen, how can he have a big future?" Liu Ziyi patted his chest and said, "But we have also learned the skills at home.
Anyway, if the general wants to have a banquet at any time, just say hello."
"Then I will be disrespectful."
The three of them gathered around the stove and talked about common things, not mentioning the war in Jinzhou. The stove and the thick clothes on their bodies made Wei Changpan and Liu Ziyi feel the warmth they had not seen for a long time.
This was a luxury that was definitely not available on the northern grasslands. Zhang Ziwen stood aside and sneezed three or five times in succession before being pulled to sit down by the stove.
However, many things still had to be said. For example, about their journey to and from the place where Wei Changpan could not remember, Liu Ziyi took care of it, and Zhang Ziwen acted as their secretary.
When talking about the barbarian warrior leader, Wei Changpan still had fresh memories. It was true that the man's methods were too terrifying. He pulled the head out of the human body. It's hard to remember. In addition, Wei Changpan also told Song Zhiwen
The description of that person's appearance.
"What you see should be the so-called number one warrior of the Taiqi Ge Tribe, Tuluobatu La'erhua. Regardless of whether there is any water in the name of this number one warrior, fortunately you lured him out of that place with half of his troops.
Wuming Valley, otherwise if you dozens of people don't say whether you can defeat that hundred-man army of barbarian warriors, Tuluo Batu alone may eat most of your people." Song Zhiwen rubbed the orifice on his forehead with his index finger.
"There was once a time when six or seven skilled warriors from the imperial court appeared one after another and went north with the intention of risking their lives, but they failed in the end and most of them were killed instead."
Zhanganchu was a very new name to both Liu Ziyi and Wei Changpan, but it didn't sound like a casual yamen. It involved confidential matters, and it was inconvenient for the two of them to ask more questions.
Seeing the two people's reactions, Song Zhiwen nodded with satisfaction, and did not say too much when asking questions that should not be asked. Wei Changpan and Wei Changpan still grasped this point very well.
There are also officials from the imperial court who travel all over the world to spy on intelligence. However, there are still not many assassinations of one person by martial arts. After all, Yao people are not the only ones in the world who can use martial arts. The year when Zhangan went out to assassinate the most people, it was also the year when assassins from all sides were involved.
The year when most people came to Beijing.”
"A sword has two edges, and the sword cuts one edge. Using an assassin to assassinate is like using a sword. While hurting others, you must also be careful not to hurt yourself. Therefore, in the six years since the emperor came to the throne, Luo Batu was not included in the murder list planned by Zhanzhang.
He is one of the few people who has been able to carry it out, which shows how difficult it is for the imperial court to consider such a warrior who can even influence the outcome of a battle involving a thousand people."
What Song Zhiwen didn't say was that there was a rumor in the temple that the emperor was assassinated in the early years of his reign. Fortunately, the dragon's body was unharmed. Since then, he has hated assassinations. Zhan Ganshou, who was originally in charge of assassinations, was quite good at it.
Tao warriors had to stop and retreat. But when the people of this world first made arrowheads from stones and forged swords with metal, it was destined that assassinations in the world would never end.
Emperor Yao hated Zhan Ganchu deeply when he came to the throne. However, over time, the emperor also discovered that assassination was the only remaining method for some people whom he could not execute according to Yao's laws, so Zhangan Chu
It began to operate carefully again. As long as the emperor was in power, the heresy in the world would also exist for a day, and the Zhangan area gradually returned to its former glory.
"The tools used by the barbarians to siege the city are nothing more than stone carts and rams. There are no huge trees on the grassland that can be used to build ladders. Without such tools, the barbarians would not be able to climb up easily, so they can only rely on stone carts.
Throw big rocks to break a hole in the city wall and then lead the troops into the city."
Song Zhiwen learned from the descriptions of the two men the types of siege equipment used by the barbarians in the valley, and he was relieved. Without the help of ladders, he would only need to place more kerosene barriers, logs, and rocks and other defensive equipment near the city gate to attack the city.
The hammer is heavy and heavy, and must rely on human power to pull it. When the time comes, arrows on the city will be like locusts and rocks will fall down.
Rain, coupled with the help of fire attacks, even if the barbarians still have a few siege equipment, they will have no chance of entering the city if they guard the four gates.
Wei Changpan and Wei Changpan did not hide the fact that Yu Gao Gao surrendered to the enemy. They originally thought that Song Zhiwen would be furious, but they just said lightly, "When was there no such person in the war?" and brushed it off.
"Final question, you two saw with your own eyes that all the siege equipment in the nameless valley was burned to the ground, without any possibility of repair?"
"The kerosene given by the general was used. If it really burns, it will only leave ashes..." Liu Ziyi was a little confused. Song Zhiwen and Zhang Ziwen had asked this question more than once, and he also hesitated, "
But if there is something left in any corner, it is probably reasonable."
"It's burned after it's burned, and what's left is what's left. The two cannot be generalized." Song Zhiwen's tone rarely became serious, "This is an important matter."
"General, I saw with my own eyes that the fire was burning. Nothing could be saved. Even the pig iron would have burned away." Wei Changpan said, "General, why do you say this?"
"Another city was destroyed in the north of Jinzhou... Guanshan County..." Song Zhiwen muttered, "The news from Fei Ge was sent in the morning. Half a day ago, all the two gates in the northeast of Guanshan County were destroyed.
After being exposed, the county guard opened the remaining two gates in the city and allowed the people to escape, but they were intercepted by the barbarian cavalry, resulting in numerous casualties..."
If the previous destruction of the two small county towns can be explained by the fact that the city walls were not repaired and the defenses were weak, and the barbarians attacked fiercely as if they were risking their lives, the destruction was only within a day and night, but it was a little early. Guanshan County
Looking at the whole city of Jinzhou, the city walls are thick, there is plenty of food and grass, and there are many soldiers and generals guarding the city. How could it be broken?
"If the governor of Guanshan County did not lie in the letter from Fei Ge, and you read it correctly, then the barbarians must have other equipment to attack the city. According to you, the equipment transported from the Nameless Valley is no more than
How can we conquer a city like Guanshan County without sufficient equipment?"
According to the prairie proverb, "A wise woman will not put all the dried meat in the tent together." Dunmao obviously learned wisdom from this proverb.
"Guanshan County is not one of those two county towns, General!" Liu Ziyi came back to his senses. The copper stove in his hand fell to the ground, and the charcoal sparks rolled to the ground, but he couldn't care about anything.
There are at least 100,000 people living nearby, and these 100,000 people fell into the hands of the barbarians..."
"What will I use to save? The infantry in the city? Or the cavalry army that has less than a thousand people in the city?" Song Zhiwen looked bitterly, looking at the red sweet potatoes that had been baked into coke in the furnace, "If that cavalry army is still alive?"
Now, the Jinzhou State Army will not shrink here."
Jinzhou is now at a critical juncture. The barbarians are plundering and celebrating in the conquered city. The cavalry army, the only cavalry army in Jinzhou that can not fall behind in the face of the prairie cavalry, cannot help but be dispatched by Song Zhiwen, the general of Jinzhou.
