While patrolling Guancheng, Li Xia applied bruise medicine and moved his sprained foot a little, feeling a little surprised.
Sprains were common in the previous life, and I had developed a good technique for massaging ankles. I only did this to Gao Mingyue once in this life.
I also suffered a fall recently, and I realized more and more deeply that youth is good and I recover quickly.
Of course, being injured is always troublesome, and it is best not to be injured.
After treating the wound, he walked towards the tower on crutches.
Wu Tong sat in the hall and drank again, finally looking a little more like a fighter. He took a few wine glasses and turned them upside down on the table, as if he was thinking about precautions.
"Brother Li is here again, come and have a drink."
"I'm going to fight, so I won't drink anymore."
"Are you afraid? My brother knows that you have a good drinking capacity." Wu Tongtong said, "You and I have a sense of propriety in doing things. If we have a few drinks and don't get too drunk, we won't get in trouble."
"I heard that Brother Wu sent his head to report his merits. Have you asked the Changning Army for help?"
"Why do you ask for help when your brother is here?" Wu Tong said in surprise: "Junlian is in Jisi Prefecture, so if it is easy to let the officers and soldiers enter, wouldn't you be afraid of causing trouble?"
He raised his hand and pressed it twice, and said with emotion: "Brother Li, they all say that you are too cautious. They are just the Mongolian army, and they are not heavenly soldiers or generals. Why are you so tense every day?"
"Brother Wu has never fought against the Mongolian army. Are you confident?"
"This is the land of Sichuan and Yunnan. It's mountain warfare. This is my brother's best fighting style. How can the Mongolian army know how to fight in mountains?"
Wu Tong said, holding his cup and smiling, looking a little elegant, and said: "Don't you see, north of the Shu River, the Song Dynasty used mountain fortresses for defense, and the Mongolian army could not advance... By the way, the Mongolian army not only does not know how to fight in mountains, but also
If you don’t know how to fight with water, you will definitely lose in this encounter.”
Li Xiandao: "It cannot be generalized. Just because the Mongolian army in the north of the Yangtze River does not know how to fight in the mountains, it does not mean that A Shu and the thousand men do not know how to do it."
"Hahaha, look at what Brother Li said, it is well known that Meng people are not good at climbing mountains."
"There are so many Mongols that we can't even pick out a thousand people who are good at mountain climbing. When Kublai Khan and Wu Liang joined forces to attack Longshou Pass, they could even climb Cangshan Mountain."
"Hahaha, it seems that Cangshan Mountain is not difficult to climb." Wu Tong laughed, "Brother Li, it's ridiculous for you to say that the big men from the north can climb mountains better than the natives of Sichuan and Yunnan."
Li Xia said seriously: "This shows the Mongolian army's attitude towards war. They are very serious."
"Me too." Wu Tong smiled, "very serious."
"A'shu has already plucked out Niuzhai, Dongshanzhai and other places."
"Those mountains are short, so it's not surprising that they were pulled out. My brother had already asked Abao Weng to build defenses, but he just turned a deaf ear and lost his life. But my brother's Guancheng is different. It is strong and dangerous, and the Mongolian army cannot attack it."
Li Xia said: "There are mountains higher than Niuzhai Mountain and Hengzi Mountain along the way from Shimen Pass. A Shu came all the way without any injuries."
Wu Tongtong: "That's because the Mongolian army's equipment is far superior to that of the Southern Barbarians. Brother, it's different here."
"There are also captured Wumeng tribesmen among the Mongolian army, who are good at climbing..."
"Brother Li!" Wu Tong was already displeased and called out in an aggravated tone, "I don't like to drink or talk too much on weekdays, but instead I am particularly concerned about this war. Can a novice teach an experienced person how to fight?"
As he spoke, he soon smiled again, with the amiable look of a businessman.
"We agreed to stay here to cheer for my brother, but why are we taking command? My brother is older than you, and you have been in battle for a long time. Don't you know how to fight?"
Li Xia looked directly into Wu Tong's eyes and asked, "Brother Wu, are you really not afraid of defeat?"
"Haha, you won't lose." Wu Tong waved his hand and said: "Come, brother will tell you how to fight this battle."
He pointed to a wine glass on the table and said: "You said last time that setting up an ambush at Makouyan was not possible. If you want to garrison the army on the mountain, you must build a city, build a fortress, prepare stones, wood, food, grass and other luggage, just like Yu Jie did in those days.
What you did.
As soon as the Niuzhai is lost, the Mongolian army can see the Makouyan. But the tens of thousands of people at Makouyan do not dare to easily set up an ambush. Why? There are many trees and bamboos on this mountain. Before you can prepare the stones and wood, the Mongolian army has arrived and set fire to it.
The ambush is over.
If you want to fight, the best way is to defend the city. The Mongolian army cannot get through, and there is food in the city. There is no need to sleep in the open air for half a month. If the Mongolian army runs out of food and grass, the morale of the army will be shaken, and there will be no way to advance or retreat.
Dutong defeated Wu Lianghetai. At the end of the period, my brother sent out troops again and won in one battle!"
Li Xia said: "But Brother Wu only has more than 300 people."
"So what?" Wu Tongdao said: "The terrain is dangerous and the city is strong. As long as there are enough food, grass and arrows, even dozens of people can resist tens of thousands of powerful soldiers. What's more, my brother's subordinates are all warriors who are good at shooting and good at mountain terrain.
"
"What if Ah Shu climbed up Hengzi Mountain and sneaked across the city?"
"Haha, Hengzi Mountain is steep and there is a stronghold on the mountain. We have prepared stones and wood to see if the Mongolian army dares to come!"
At this point in Wu's conversation, he gradually became proud, pointed at himself, and said: "I know that Brother Li looks down on my brother in his heart, so I will show you this time. My brother can fight, and he can fight with ease. How can we talk about it...
When you laugh, you will be wiped out by force, haha, is that what you say?"
After Li Xia finished chatting with Wu Tong, he still sent one of his men to go to Changning Army to ask for reinforcements.
He couldn't tell how to refute Wu Tong.
But he had seen the battle report of A Shu asking for credit from the intelligence from the north. He not only participated in the battle to annihilate Dali, but also successively raided Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan and other places.
Li Xia always felt that A Shu would send people to climb Hengzi Mountain.
But as a lieutenant of Qingfu County, he can't control Junlianzhou for the time being...
It was night, and a waning moon hung high in the sky.
It's very dark.
Bayin walked through the forest, looked up, and stopped.
Baolide, who was walking behind, asked in a low voice: "Can't you climb up?"
Bayin said: "It's too dark and I can't see the road clearly."
"Let Tu Laoman climb up first and hang a rope down." Baolide said, "You guys, take Tu Laoman with you."
"yes……"
"Is it too late?" someone asked.
"There's enough time." Bayin said with a smile: "When the stronghold on Tuo Mountain catches fire, the Song army will think that we are taking out the stronghold on Tuo Mountain tonight, but they won't guess that we have already taken out the Hengzi Stronghold and even jumped into Guancheng, right? Baifu
long."
Baolide smiled and said: "When the city gate is opened, it will definitely not be the fifth watch."
After a while, someone above said softly: "There are soldiers guarding the camp."
Baolide said: "Mo Rigen, go and give him an arrow."
"good."
Bayin said: "It's so dark. If I hadn't been shot to death and alerted the soldiers..."
"Kill him with one arrow." Mo Rigen said.
Baoli De said: "If he can shout out, I will give you thirty lashes."
"Watch it."
Morigen climbed up gently for a while, pulled the bow, raised his head, and squinted his eyes.
"Whoosh!"
An arrow shot upward, and at the same time, a figure fell into the woods.
A Mongolian soldier passed by and quickly stamped out the torch...
On the top of Guancheng City, a village soldier named "Bodongha" rubbed his hands and said to his companions in Miao language: "It has suddenly become cold these days."
"I used to have wine to drink, but now I have to defend the city..."
Bodongha suddenly pointed and said, "What is that?"
"The cottage is on fire."
"Go and tell the leader quickly."
"Okay." Bo Dongha rubbed his hands and turned to look for Wu Tong.
He had only taken a few steps when he suddenly heard a "pop" sound.
When I turned around, I saw that my companion who had been talking just now had an arrow sticking out of his neck and he was already dead.
Before he could shout, Bodongha seemed to hear a faint "gurgling" sound coming from the night wind.
As an old hunter who has been hunting in the mountains and forests all year round, he is very familiar with this sound.
Someone is drawing the bow.
In an instant, Bodongha pounced.
"puff!"
He was hit by an arrow in the shoulder.
"Ah! Enemy attack!" A shrill cry pierced the night sky.
At the same time, Mongolian soldiers have leaped into Guancheng...
