The general will eat grass

Chapter 35 The Battle of Changyang Pass

The guards quickly cleaned the battlefield, and Zhao Yuansong and Ding Guogong returned to Changgui and their Xiling Village.

At this time, it was already dawn, and the village head's wife found that Fu Gen had stolen his father's rattan armor and went out. When she went out, she saw that the village was surrounded by thousands of troops. Only slightly relieved.She immediately went to the clan elders, and after the men had inquired about the situation with the general, they found out that Fulgen and the young masters who came out from Dingguo's mansion went to kill the Huns.

The village head's wife waited anxiously at the entrance of the village with Changgui and Changlin. When they saw their son riding on a tall horse, waving and giggling at them in the morning glow, they were both happy and proud, worried and afraid, and finally cried After pulling the children to start a fight, they hugged them and kissed and hugged them.

Zhao Yuansong looked a little envious, but suddenly he was slapped on the back of the head, and he turned to look at Duke Ding: "Father?"

"It's for your mother." Duke Ding Kuku put this sentence down, and followed the clan elders and the others to the house where the guests were entertained.

Zhao Yuansong's eyes turned red, he rubbed his head and followed behind with a silly grin.

After entering the hall and saying hello to each other, Zhao Yuansong told Ding Guogong and others how he and his friends harmed the Huns.It turned out that Changgui not only stole his father's hunting bow, but also took the powerful Meng-Khan medicine his father used to deal with large beasts.Then he used tactics such as leading the snake out of the hole, attacking the east and attacking the west, capturing the thief and the king, etc., and killed seven or eight Huns in one fell swoop.Hearing a group of Xiling villagers exclaimed again and again, aroused the patriotism of several young adults.

After the meeting was over, Zhao Yuansong talked to Ding Guogong about the Vajra Vine and Rattan Armor, "Father, do you think this Rattan Armor can be used? Vajra Rattan is low in cost, and it is said to be tougher than ordinary Rattan Armor."

Duke Dingguo asked his personal guard to take the rattan armor left by Fu Gen to do the experiment, and saw that the personal guard drew a knife and slashed at the rattan armor with all his strength, but the knife got stuck in the scar of the rattan, and it took him a lot of effort to pull it out. .Duke Ding's eyes brightened, "Good stuff!" Due to military expenditures and many problems, ordinary soldiers basically did not have protective armor, and they were the ones who actually went to kill the enemy. Too many casualties have always been an important problem that plagued Beixuan's army.If this kind of rattan armor can be used on them, it will not only increase their chances of survival, but also make Beixuan's army a real army of tigers and wolves.

He wants to save good things for himself first, and Ding Guogong is no exception. He stroked his beard and winked at Zhao Yuansong, "My good boy, don't tell the public about this beforehand."

Zhao Yuansong also blinked, raised the corners of his lips, and smiled like a fox, "Father, I understand. I'll find Fu Gen to ask how to make rattan armor."

If the emperor finds out about the new type of rattan armor, the imperial court will absolutely enforce a monopoly on it, and the Tiangang Army of Dingguo Mansion is self-financed by the Feng family. If they want new equipment, they have to buy it from the imperial court at their own expense.Fortunately, the first Dingguo Duke and the princess's grandmother left a fief for future generations, so that the Feng family was not so poor that they drank the northwest wind.

Zhao Yuansong still wanted to use this to make money, and he didn't want the emperor to know their discovery so quickly.

Duke Ding nodded and smiled, "Good boy."

Apart from the money issue, Duke Ding was afraid that the emperor would be narrow-minded again.This time he brought his personal guards out of the capital, but spent a long time talking to the emperor.Maybe the second son is right, Dingguo's reputation among the people has far surpassed that of the imperial court, even if they show their loyalty, the emperor will not believe it.And Dingguo Duke's Mansion is a thorn in the emperor's eyes, a thorn in his flesh, it doesn't make him uncomfortable.

In the past, he only focused on fighting the Xiongnu, and he didn't care about power tactics. Since his brother died in a battle that was impossible to lose, he had to think about the future of Dingguo Duke's Mansion.Fortunately, there is still an old wife by his side, as well as a group of loyal subordinates, who have supported him and Dingguo's mansion to this day.

He didn't want to disappoint the people of Beixuan, let alone those who serve the country loyally. Therefore, he handed over his seal of generalissimo when he led the troops out this time.And he came out with great difficulty, of course he would not return to Beijing immediately, he decided to take Zhao Yuansong straight to Changyang Pass to see his son.

When they arrived at Changyang Pass, what they saw was the smoking city wall, the scarred city gate, and a large number of Huns climbing under the city wall.

Duke Dingguo visually estimated that there were thousands of enemy troops in front of the east city gate, and he turned his head to his opponent and ordered: "Shoot the arrow, and the flag signal tells the long tassels to cooperate from inside to outside, let's rush over."

Zhao Yuansong has only seen the cruelty of war and the bravery and heroism of generals in books.But what does real war look like?To be honest, looking at it from a distance, the little Huns standing under the city wall five or six meters high, using various tricks to climb up the wall, seems a bit funny.The defenders on the city wall used spears and bows to fight, and it seemed very simple to beat them down one by one.

However, it is this attack and defense that determines the fate of thousands of people in the city, and it is also this attack and defense that burns the morale of Beixuan soldiers and consumes the lives of Beixuan soldiers.

Zhao Yuansong pursed his lips, his male god was in the city at this time, they were so close, but separated by thousands of Hun enemy troops.

The sounding arrow exploded sparks in the air, and following Ding Guogong's order, two thousand guards charged forward collectively.Zhao Yuansong was protected in the middle by them, and saw with his own eyes that a guard beside him was shot and fell off his horse in order to cover himself, and was stepped on by the friendly horses following closely behind.

Can't be saved, his first task is to enter the city!

Zhao Yuansong lowered his body on the horse, and tightly grasped the armrest of the saddle. He gritted his teeth and held back his tears.

War is really the most ruthless and cruel.

Goodbye Feng Jingde, his face is haggard, his body is full of gunpowder smoke, and his bronze armor is as shining as it was before the battle.When the city gate opened, he rushed out first, his eyes swept over his face, and then passed by his two horses, and joined Ding Guogong behind, and together they launched a siege to the Xiongnu outside the city gate.

The horses neighed, the soldiers shouted to kill, and the enemy bandits wailed.

Zhao Yuansong only had time to turn his head, and glanced out from the opening of the city gate that was about to close.And at this moment, Feng Jingde cut off the neck of the Huns with his sword, and the enemy's steaming blood flew out from the severed neck, and sprayed all over the ground with the body toppled over.

Zhao Yuansong finally had the strength to rein in the horse and stop the horse. He turned over and jumped on the horse, his feet suddenly softened, and he almost knelt on the ground.

"Ouch, Second Sister-in-law, I can't bear your big gift, you are too polite!" Deng Mian, who came out of nowhere, caught him.

Zhao Yuansong didn't have time to spend time with him, so he grabbed his arm to stabilize his body, and after he recovered, he immediately rushed towards the gate tower.

"Hey, Second Sister-in-Law, don't casually break into important military sites!" Deng Mian said inwardly: What a careless little dude!

With a "choke", the two guards guarding the stone steps of the city gate drew out their long knives and directly blocked Zhao Yuansong's way.Zhao Yuansong frowned, and found that they were wearing the uniforms of Dingguo's government soldiers, and ordered: "Get out of the way, let me go."

The two government soldiers were expressionless and motionless, not at all easy to bully Ah Qing and Dashu.Oh, by the way, Aqing and Dashu are the two unlucky ghosts who escorted him back to Beijing.

"Second sister-in-law, you can't go here, follow me back to the post house." Deng Mian swayed over after seeing Zhao Yuansong was devastated enough.

Zhao Yuansong looked back, looked him up and down, swept the token around his waist, and asked tentatively: "Deng Heixiong, can you take me up?"

"What? What did you call me?" Deng Mian frowned.

"Deng Heixiong!" It's black and bearish, and it's still a hot commodity.

"Fuck, you call people random nicknames, are you looking for a beating?"

"Do you dare to beat me? I'm your second sister-in-law!" Zhao Yuansong raised his chin high, with a look of contempt on his face, "You have dark and thick skin, and your brain is not bright. You are so big, don't you look like a bear?" Is it?"

This time the soldiers from the two governments couldn't help laughing, and Deng Mian was also blown out of breath.He stretched out his hand to grab Zhao Yuansong, but Zhao Yuansong immediately ran left and right, pulling the government soldiers as cover.But at this moment, he finally found an opportunity to break through the defense of the government soldiers in one fell swoop, turned around and ran up the stone steps, and headed towards the gate tower.

"Hey, stop!" Deng Mian followed.

The two government soldiers who were thrown away: "...." They did this on purpose, for sure!

Soldiers on the city wall bent their bows and set up arrows to help the friendly troops outside the city gate.Ding Guogong and Feng Jingde led the army to form a sky-covering formation, dividing and encircling the Huns outside the east gate and exterminating them one by one.

Zhao Yuansong leaned on the crenel of the city wall, stretched his neck to look out, and was pulled back by Deng Mian who was chasing him. "You don't want to die!" Deng Mian rudely pushed him towards the arrow hole on the wall, "If you want to see it from here, you are so stupid, be careful that your head will be blown off by an arrow from the Huns!"

Zhao Yuansong thanked him and looked out of the city through the arrow hole. The Huns were already defeated. They fought and retreated, causing countless casualties.Feng Jingde reined in his horse, and was about to shout to the Huns on the opposite side to let them surrender.Unexpectedly, Duke Ding was in full swing of the killing. He held the reins with one hand and held a spear with the other, pointing at the Huns in front of him and cursing: "Fucking bandits, dare to invade our border, come and die, go!"

Duke Ding put his feet between the horse's belly, swept his spear across, and charged forward, heading straight for the Huns wrapped in tiger skin and holding a black saber in front of them.The personal guards followed behind him, bowing left and right, paving a way for Dingguo to open up.

Feng Jingde really wanted to help his forehead, his father hasn't led soldiers for many years, so he couldn't hold back his excitement?Immediately, he stood up from the stirrups, whistled a few times, and ordered the soldiers to change formation immediately.Fortunately, they were all soldiers from Dingguo's mansion, so no one really couldn't understand.

Hundreds of sword and shield fighters and hundreds of spearmen, interspersed with cavalry and cavalry archers, dispersed to both sides of the battlefield, forming a formation of scissors and goose tails, half encircling the Huns, which not only defended against the enemy's detour Outflanking can also help Duke Ding and his party kill the enemy.

Feng Jingde sat back on his horse, held his sword and shouted: "Follow the commander, kill me!" Seeing this, the guards behind him tapped his heel on the horse's belly and followed closely behind him.

Duke Ding didn't talk about tactics anymore, he led sixty personal guards, rushed into the enemy group in a swarm, saw the tiger skin man and shot a spear, but was blocked by his black saber, and the Huns returned in time to protect him. Not a hit.Duke Dingguo's guards rushed forward and started a scuffle with the Huns behind the tiger-skinned man.

An iron spear in Duke Dingguo's hand weighed more than 50 kilograms. The tip of the spear was tempered into steel.After a few tricks, no one really dared to stop him from confronting the tiger-skinned man.Duke Dingguo let go of the rein in his hand, smiled at the tiger-skinned man with his beard twisted, and immediately raised his spear, rushing straight at him like a gust of wind.

Today is considered unlucky for the tiger-skinned man, originally he was only doing a feint attack at the gate of the east city, but he did not expect to meet Duke Ding and his daughter-in-law to visit relatives.The Generalissimo stayed in Beijing to accompany his old wife these years, and he hadn't been on the battlefield for a long time, so he was eager for skills.The God of War in the past showed great power, galloping his horse, dancing his spear vigorously.The tiger-skinned man's eyes widened in astonishment, and he wanted to back away in fright, but was blocked by Dingguo Gong's personal guards behind him.

The horse was as fast as lightning, and Duke Dingguo was in front of him in a blink of an eye. He raised his spear at a tricky angle, avoiding the black saber in the tiger skin man's hand, and pierced him directly in the chest.

Zhao Yuansong on the city wall excitedly poked his head out from behind the wall, held his breath, and stared at the two fiercely fighting.
