20. Four roads and fortification
Hearing Sun Jichang's sweet words, Li Baozhen was moved again and deeply realized that the reason why he had eaten thousands of golden elixirs and had not yet become an immortal was that the number of food he took had not met the standard. He struggled to hold the whisk and climbed up the wooden crane, shaking it back and forth, just like riding a horse on the battlefield. In the early autumn garden, there was a comfortable but cool smell, just like Li Sikong's rejection of this chaotic world.
"Will it be wonderful to ride a real crane and swim in the Taizhen void in the future?" This is his only pursuit now.
When Meng Guangcheng and the envoy of criticism came in, Li Baozhen saw that the angel was coming, and hurriedly climbed down the wooden crane to greet him.
Seeing Sikong's appearance, Meng Guangcheng couldn't help but feel funny and heartbroken. After reading the emperor's meaning, Li Baozhen was not dissatisfied and said that he would let Zhenwu's Li Jingluo command the Northern Army in the Imperial Camp. Wang Yangui of my Zhaoyi Army would definitely bow his head.
"Sikong is deeply in love with his men and a pillar of the country. How could he not know some false things? I advise Sikong to cheer up again. Now the world needs Fang Yuezhushi like Sikong!" Meng Guangcheng saw that Master Sun Lian avoided entering the hall, so he sincerely advised Li Baozhen.
It means that at least you have to manage your Zhaoyi army well, otherwise Shangdang is located in the throat of Hedong, Taihang and Henan, which is the inner abdomen of the country. If something goes wrong, Sikong will be defeated in your lifetime.
Unexpectedly, Li Baozhen smiled twice as if it were true or false, and replied to Meng: "Everyone is awake outside the matter, and everyone is confused inside the matter. There are few people in the world who believe it when they are awake, but they can't help but believe it after they encounter it."
Seeing that Li Baozhen was so confused, Meng could only bury his sigh in his heart and left Shangdang after completing the declaration.
When Meng Guangcheng set out on the post road, he received the special funds from Baijing Shu, Bai Bao, and Zheng Ma, who were allocated by the imperial branch office, and pacified the four forts for 20 days, and almost at the same time.
Gao Yue wore a purple robe, rode a white horse, and the surrounding soldiers raised long flags and tooth flags, and personally went to Baibao City to visit. He also distributed all the rewards of the city's merits and the 100,000 yuan of rewards from the emperor's takeout to the soldiers.
The White Leopard City is controlled by the White Leopard River to the south, and is built on the north and west sides according to the terrain. Therefore, the city walls on the south and east sides were built, all of which were built for the fire of three-mix soil. Later, outside the South City, a "Chenyue City" was added, which was semicircular, with three doors open and a secret door, and a stool wall was added on it, which was the secret to lure the enemy to win.
When Gao Yue was on the White Leopard River, he saw that lifting equipment had been set up on Yanyue City. This was a large orange slab. It had a pair of wheels on the front of the city, wrapping the ropes, and then stuck to the walls in the city. Pure iron "weights" fell down. These weights can also be added and subtracted according to the weight of the lifting materials. On weekdays, the weights were lifted with a wheel noose. The other end of the orange slab swing arm was tied to the ground outside the city. The middle beam wood needed to build the watchtower was placed on the pocket at the other end and tied it, then unbuttoned the noose on the wheel, so that the weights could sink at a constant speed, and then the orange slab rose up quickly to lift the required wood and bricks to the top of the city for use.
Now it is used to lift the "Tiger Hour Cannon. Three-type" gun barrel. I saw a bronze-casting barrel weighing a stone, tied with ropes at both ends, and rose to the top of the city without shaking. It was caught by the soldiers and then placed at the cannon position behind the female wall warbler.
Gao Yue looked at this and had a flash of inspiration. He asked someone to call Zhang Baobai, who was following the army, pointing at the large orange steak with a horse whip. Zhang nodded at Zhang Suyunyun, then bowed and clasped his fists, and said that the matter was left to his subordinates.
"The new gun needs to be fired for three shots!" Soon, at the gun position in Baibao City, several gunners and soldiers shouted and said yes. Then they brought the sub-cannons to reload the divine thunder gunpowder and projectiles, put them in the belly of the female gun, and used the muzzle and simple inspection to ignite the fire twists at the water surface of Baibao River in the south of the city!
"Bang", a burst of blue smoke ejected from the mouth of the tiger-squatting gun on the top of the city.
Gao Yue, who was beside the water river, felt the air pass through the sharp roar, and then a tall column of water exploded on the water surface a hundred steps away.
The grass and grass in the valleys near Baibao River were trembling.
Gao Yue smiled happily.
Then there was the second and third ones, and the sound spread from afar.
On the distant mountain, the men and women of the six governments, who were still grazing between Baibaochuan and Jinming Road, rode on horseback. When they heard the unknown sound of cannons, they felt uncomfortable.
In the scorching sun in autumn, the gate leading to the east of White Leopard City is opened:
The proud Tang army cavalry were wearing zithers with bird feathers and chain mail. Some were holding horse forks, some held horse lances, and some carried arrow bags and crossbows. The small flags tied to the top of the long handle were like flames facing the wind. They also flew into a long array of arrows in line with the banners. Suddenly they shot out of the White Leopard City, looking at the vast number of navy blue valleys.
Behind them were many Qiang cavalrymen who were summoned by the heads, holding lassoes, and carrying bows and arrows. The Tang cavalry was like a flying wing, and they were like a flying wing.
Gao Yue also launched a cruel "shallow attack" tactic against Jin Mingdao's six governments, Xiang and Zhufandao, in a critical period of autumn.
He stipulated that the cavalry of each battalion of the Tang army was united in the unit of the pagoda team, and each pagoda team was equipped with a considerable number of Yicong Qiang cavalry, from Baijing Shu, Baibao City, Lianma City and Pingding City to take turns to be launched. This changed the shallow attack of a large cavalry group that had been in Qingzhou and turned into a shallow attack of a small team.
However, this small team's shallow attack is even more cruel to Dangxiang of the Six Prefectures.
A Tang Qibao team that fought in White Leopard City captured a small flock of six palaces grazing by mountains and rivers: due to the characteristics of nomadic peoples, they must be scattered, and each flock had to occupy a large area of grass to ensure the consumption and activities of the six animals.
After Prince Nixiang defeated the huge offensive against Baijingshu, the Dangxiang Fanluo in Weibei, who were seriously injured, could only break it into pieces and stock the livestock in autumn. In this way, the survival of the livestock can be guaranteed and people can be guaranteed when winter comes.
But this also gave the Tang cavalry a chance to disperse and attack and be cruel and exterminate.
This Tang army cavalry team broke into their dome like lightning in a scream of the screams of the Dangxiang Shepherds. Then they shot with arrows, assassinated with horse spears and horse forks, stabbed with a Pu knife or a Xi knife, and trampled with an iron hoof, killing some men and smashed the resistance of this Fanluo - Xiao Fanluo's still alive men and women, about 200 people, could only cry, kneel down, and look at the killed corpses in fear. The ears were filled with the sound of the iron armor of the Tang army's war cavalry and their contemptuous scolding. The sharp blades swept around in front of the eyes of the Dangxiang's still alive men and women. Many people could only hold their heads tightly, begging the other party's knife not to chop on their necks.
