Chapter 597: The Snow Sea of Ningdong, the Giant Wheel of Life and Death (Sixth)
The snow finally stopped, and the atmosphere in Xiacun Valley became lively. ⊙
Even in heavy snow, the army did not stop training completely. Those with better physical fitness struggled in the snow, and those with slightly worse practiced charging. There were already many people in the valley, and they took turns to shovel snow and replaced training with labor.
It has never stopped. Only part of the body is really not good, and it is taken down to rest.
In the past few years, the army still has physical problems, and everyone is not well off on weekdays. The military man who eats less than a few pieces of meat a month is also weak. But on the other hand, those who have survived the hard days,
It is often more capable of withstand the tempering, so there are not many soldiers who can't stand the cold as imagined.
In order to maintain the livelihood of more than 10,000 people, Ning Yi used a lot of relationships - not only the logistics system of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, but also the good reputation transactions established with the landlords and rich gentry in various places during disaster relief. The previous time was for
Saving people also gave everyone the opportunity to make money. This time, it was for the war. Ning Yi used the reputation of the government to make a white note. He first overdrawed the food hoarded by these rich gentry to fill the gap in military ration supply. When the war ends, then
There are countries to make up for it.
In order to avoid the sudden attack of the Jurchen Valley by the Jurchens, it will collapse and transfer again, the grains were temporarily stored on the north bank of the Yellow River and transported once a few days later. More grains were transported one after another in the later stage, although it was troublesome and because of the Yellow River
The North Bank was also affected by the solid walls and clearing the fields, but after trying hard, the military rations problem can still be guaranteed. Ning Yi has the original bamboo record as the backstage, and occasionally some pickled vegetables and meat that are easy to preserve are added to it. For the time being
The food that also looks good is a key factor in supporting the healthy operation of the valley in addition to public opinion propaganda.
On weekdays, the snow was sweeping one by one. After the heavy snow stopped, all the snow was quickly cleaned up in the valley. A large amount of snow was piled up on the outskirts of the valley, like a hill, if the Jurchen cavalry came over
, is somewhat a blockade.
Snow piles, five consecutive layers of horse-rejected horse-rejected trenches, and the trenches between horse-rejected horses are the outermost defense system of Xiacun Valley. Going up the mountain, the observation deck, wooden city walls and other objects are still being scattered by
After being built, the elm cannons brought by Luliangshan have been placed in key positions one by one. As many as eighty elm cannons and several iron cannons have been strictly selected, trying to be in front of this valley.
Form a cross-fire network.
The power of the elm cannon is naturally not greater than that of the iron cannons in later generations. On a large battlefield, or in the open places like the city of Bianliang, it cannot play much effect. However, in front of the valley and around it, it is located in the area in the surrounding area.
The relatively narrow terrain and more than 80 firepower points are enough to give Ning Yi some sense of peace. Of course, for others, if the effect of the elm cannon is not clear, the sense of peace will be reduced by half.
"If ten or 20,000 people rushed over, there would be people all over the mountains and fields..."
Walking by the fortifications with Qin Shaoqian, I felt at ease in my heart as I was not as good as before.
Although the mouth of the valley is narrow, the mountains on both sides are actually not steep. If the army really rushed over, it would not be an enemy on one side, but more likely to be three sides.
More than 80 cannons could be blocked for a while, but they could not be blocked forever. Especially at this time, the elm cannons still had quality problems. Although the batch of good things brought by Luliangshan were all improved and reinforced, on average,
Each cannon fires ten shells. It may be the life span, and there must be a long gap in between. The iron cannon is naturally better, but the iron cannon at this time, like the elm cannon, still has a considerable explosion.
Danger.
This...is a tower defense game.
Standing on the wooden fortifications, Ning Yi thought in his heart. Beside him, Qin Shaoqian, Hongti, Han Jing and others were all there, and there was a busy scene inside and outside the valley. Outside the defensive wall, a large number of trees had been
Cut down all, leaving open space with short wooden stakes, where some people are practicing bows and arrows, and Yuwen Feidu is also in a queue not far away - shooting arrows at trees further away.
A young man who moved things finished his work and walked by. The young man's skin was a little dark. He was a young man named Xiaohei in Luliang Mountain. In a sense, he was also half of Hongti's disciple. The two were in Luliang Mountain.
, and there was also a friendship.
Yuwen Feidu's arrow flew accurately to the trees in the distance, and then turned around: "How is it?"
“…Crip.”
Xiao Hei dragged his feet forward.
Yuwen Feidu took a breath to the sky: "How can you let me tolerate you? Get hidden weapons!"
He picked up a stone and smashed it to Xiao Hei. Xiao Hei reached out to grab it, but Yuwen Feidu had already rushed over. One of his feet was indeed a bit inconvenient, and it was a bit damaged to the skill of the pen.
However, the legs are lame and not broken, which is somewhat inconvenient, but many skills are still there, and the two of them quickly fought together, and the boxing skills intersected, which was particularly fierce.
Ning Yi, Hongti and others all smiled when they looked at it, and then Qin Shaoqian became solemn and pointed to a direction on the side. On the other end of the valley, a horse team came over, and several people above were all in white personal clothes.
, if it weren't for riding a horse, it would be almost impossible to see from a distance in the heavy snow.
The horse team entered the valley and the leader came to this side. Then, on this wooden city defense, he whispered to Ning Yi and others to report the development of the situation. Ning Yi and others' expressions became serious.
.When the leader left, Ning Yi supported himself on the edge of the city wall with both hands and looked outside for a while before turning around and continuing to chat with Qin Shaoqian and others.
The sound is not too high.
“…The bait has been released, it’s hard to say whether it’s eaten or not…”
"...It's better to believe that there is something than to believe that there is nothing like this. After the spring flood begins, the dam breaks. Next, no matter what, the Jurchens will play the real thing... I hope Bianliang can be defended..."
"That's not what we want to think about. If we burn our boats, we will win. Bianliang is an imperial city. If we can't defend it, our country will be destroyed and our family will be destroyed. The prime minister and his friends know this in the city, and we can only believe that they can
Keep it..."
"No matter how well the plan is done, I really thought that we would be able to call us, so it would be difficult for us to take it or not. It is a big problem..."
"After more than a month of hard work, it is a dream to train any elite soldiers in a hundred battles. Being able to prepare for a battle in the place we chose is the biggest advantage we jumping clowns can win, can we bear it?
If you live, you can only die, there is nothing to say..."
"Taiyuan has been surrounded for so long. Although there is no news, isn't it still carrying it..."
"We have already taken advantage of it... It's hard for Taiyuan..."
Since Zong Han went south and began to attack the city, Taiyuan was nailed to the road ahead of the Jurchen Western Route Army. The chief officer was Qin Shaoqian's brother Qin Shaohe. At first, some news came, and rescued from the Western Army.
After the failure, Zong Han's troops had completely swept and blocked the area. With the same idea as Zong Wang, Zong Han also wanted to train the Jurchens' siege tactics with the goal of firming the city. After Taiyuan became a blind spot for information,
It can only be inferred from the outflow of the scales and claws that the offensive and defensive battle in Taiyuan City was incredibly fierce.
The Jurchen West Route Army did not wait outside the city for too long. They were not like the Eastern Route Army, and there were not as many royal soldiers as Bianliang to deal with. Zong Han was also anxious about the war in the south. They launched a large-scale attack on Taiyuan City.
However, the resolute resistance of Taiyuan City was beyond their expectations.
This is just the information that was speculated. After the Wurui Camp was defeated, there was too much to do. The situation outside Bianliang City was too critical, and no one had time to turn their attention to the north. On September 2nd
After the 15th coercion against the emperor almost forcing the palace, Zhou Zhe almost gave the defense of Bianliang City to Li Gang, Zhong Shidao, Qin Siyuan and others with a silent and negative attitude.
This silence is dangerous and does not mean that he trusts these people. The emperor is losing his temper with everyone. Moreover, as a person who can access high-level information, Ning Yi, Qin Shaoqian and others can detect it. The Right Prime Minister's Mansion is the only one who can see it.
The emperor was not without insight in the role he played that night. Even if he was not sure, he must have suspicion and resentment. The direct consequence of this situation is that Taiyuan City will almost never be able to receive any rescue in the short term.
No one knows how long Taiyuan City can be held in that isolated area. But one thing is believed that if Taiyuan could last for so long, Bianliang City would have such an opportunity, Ning Yi and others would have all the gamblings.
All are based on this premise.
Bianliang City is destroyed and everything will be over. Even if Bianliang is defended, Ning Yi, Hongti, and Qin Shaoqian will need to work 1,000% of the effort. In the end, it will be possible to catch that 1,000% of the effort.
Hope.
But there is no doubt that many people will die.
Although the Wu Dynasty has weak combat power, its military capital is still developed. Ning Yi is in a row, a large number of bows, gunpowder, and various types of armies have been transferred continuously. However, if more than 10,000 people in the valley are compared with the Jurchens,
What level is the combat power? Even if you add defense, whether you can change it is a matter of doubt in everyone's hearts. Ning Yi has no optimism.
In any case, I am a miscellaneous army and have been in conjunction with the defeated troops for less than two months. The enemy I face is the strongest army in the world at this moment.
After the snow stopped, there was a rare clear sky, clear sky, and the air was cold and pleasant. Ning Yi looked to the direction of Bianliang City and took a deep breath. Regardless of whether Zong Wang would eat it completely as they expected.
Ning Yi knew that the letter sent by him would become the spark that truly ignites the fuse.
So he could know that the fuse was already ignited, and it was ignited by them with their own hands. But when the moment of burning out came, it was still unknown.
After the snow stopped in Bianliang, every household shoveled snow on the streets. For several days, the city defense has not relaxed. But even with some psychological preparation, no one can know that the most cruel test will come in a few days.
Before this, a few small, simple episodes happened under this sky... (To be continued, please search for Piaotianwen, novels are better, updated and faster!
