Farmer of Shu Han

Chapter 1203 Breakthrough

As the saying goes, one hair can move the whole body.

Wei Yan, who was on a military adventure in Gaodu City, successfully forced all parts of Bingzhou to the west of the river to follow suit.

And the rotation of other places in Bingzhou is just the beginning.

The impact of this incident is quietly spreading to Chang'an, and even all over Dahan.

Just wait for a fuse, and there will be an uproar in the big man.

And this fuse is in the hands of Guo Xun.

The end of June in the fourth year of Yanxi has entered the hottest time of the year.

The crescent moon is like a string, and the sky is full of stars.

The heat of the day had receded, but the city walls still gave off bursts of residual heat.

Fortunately, the night wind that blows from time to time makes people feel a little cool.

"Guo joins the army?"

The leader of the Han army at the head of Huguan City saw Guo Xun personally leading a team of troops to take turns, and hurried forward to greet him.

"It's hard work, take your people, go down and rest."

Nodding to the team rate.

The Han army took the lead and clasped their fists to say hello.

A few days ago, General Hussars transferred most of the soldiers who defended the city.

Fortunately, Guo Canjun recruited a group of county soldiers to make up for it.

In order to let these county soldiers get acquainted with various places in Huguan more quickly, Guo Canjun broke up the hundreds of soldiers who stayed behind into ten teams, and each team led a group of county soldiers to patrol and defend the city.

Over the past few days, everyone has gradually gotten used to it.

It's just that when he left with his own people, the leader of the Han army subconsciously glanced at the team, and said "Hey":

"Guo Canjun, here, why is there no leader tonight?"

"Oh," Guo Xun patted his head and smiled, "I forgot to mention that the weather is too hot these days, and everyone has to bring new soldiers, which is quite hard."

"So I asked the villagers to send some wine and food to reward everyone."

Guo Xun pointed to the city and said:

"Go, you are the last team, go late, you will be eaten up by them."

"This..." The Han army hesitated, "Is it appropriate?"

Guo Xun patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "What's inappropriate? It's not like letting you eat and drink while on duty."

"Tonight's team leader, I let them rest. Don't worry, I will lead the team tonight, there will be no problem."

Hearing what Guo Canjun said, Dui led was relieved, with a grateful expression on his face:

"Lao Guo has joined the army!"

To be honest, these days, I am really tired.

Because most of the people had been transferred away, the troops guarding the throat of Shangdang were greatly insufficient, and everyone was basically tense.

Coupled with the need to bring these county soldiers, it makes people feel physically and mentally exhausted.

After such a long time, Huguan has been calm and calm, no different from before.

Everyone is a little relaxed now.

"What is there to do?" Guo Xun waved his arm and said in a very grand manner, "This is to reward everyone for their hard work these days, go quickly!"

The team leader clasped his fists again, and was about to turn around and leave, when suddenly the voices of "clang" and "clang" came from the team led by Guo Xun.

The leader of the leading team turned his head to look, and it turned out that among the county soldiers brought by Guo Xun, some of them couldn't hold their weapons steadily and fell to the ground.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the county soldier hurriedly bent down, trying to pick up the weapon.

Unexpectedly, he picked it up just now, and he didn't know if he was too nervous. Before he straightened up, the weapon in his hand fell again.

"Clang!"

The team leader turned to Guo Xun with some doubts:

"Guo Canjun, this..."

Guo Xun's expression changed slightly. Fortunately, under the cover of night, the team leader who was more than ten steps away couldn't see his expression change clearly:

"It's okay, it's okay, county soldiers, naturally they can't compare to elite soldiers like you, it's normal to miss occasionally."

The team rate is still a bit uneasy:

"Why don't I let them come over after I go back?"

"No, no, no!" Guo Xun suddenly raised his voice, but he quickly controlled his emotions again, "I promised them today, let them have a good rest."

"If you change your mind again and let them come over to be on duty, anyone will be unhappy."

"Don't worry, I will pay attention to these people. All right, let's go, don't delay any longer."

When Guo Xun said this, he said half-jokingly:

"If you are worried, tell them when you go back, don't sleep too much tonight, just pay attention to the alarm at any time."

"These county soldiers will also enter the army in the future, and this is a good time for them to exercise."

The military service of a big man lasts for four years.

Guarding in the county for one year, this is the county soldier, and receiving formal military training at the same time.

For the remaining three years, he will be transferred to the Central Army to participate in foreign operations.

These four years are mandatory military service, and there is no official military pay.

Four years later, whether to continue to stay in the army to receive the salary or return to the hometown depends on the arrangement of the imperial court.

Therefore, Guo Xun said that these county soldiers should be trained, which is a legitimate reason.

Seeing that Guo Canjun's attitude was so firm, the team leader naturally couldn't say anything, so he had to lead people down the city wall.

After all, Guo Canjun led the army himself, so there would be no major problems.

Guo Xun let out a long sigh of relief seeing the last member of the Han army disappear at the top of the city.

He looked at the county soldier who had dropped his weapon by mistake with a stern and fierce gaze.

Guo Xun lowered his voice:

"If what happened tonight really went wrong because of you, then the wife, children, and parents will all be implicated."

He said, and looked at the crowd again:

"It's the same with you."

After saying this, he probably saw that someone among the crowd was too nervous, and then he slowed down his voice again:

"But if it succeeds, it will be very different. You will all receive credit for it, and your wife, children, and parents will not have to spend on food and clothing in this life."

"Which is more important, you should have a decision in your heart."

Guo Xun nodded in satisfaction when he saw the eyes of the people in front of him and his expression became more determined.

Among these people, except for a dozen or so people, they were secretly dispatched by Wei.

Some of the rest were members of the Hedong family—they not only lost their land and property, but also their families in the rebellion a few years ago.

And the last part is the children of certain local families.

Fortunately, he was the son of a Shangdang family. Guo Xun would not dare to use him if he was replaced by someone from Hedong.

The east side has been allocating fields to those untouchables, and the price of buying them is too high.

Shangdang is much better.

Especially after the establishment of the Governor's Mansion, the so-called "spreading into the mother" evil policy naturally cannot be carried out in the Shangdang.

the reason is simple:

Wei Yan was hated by his colleagues in the court and did not have enough helpers.

But when he got to the place, he was unwilling to accept it, or he was unwilling to believe those students who called Feng thief as the head of the mountain.

So in a sense, Guo Xun would like to thank Wei Yan for giving himself such a huge opportunity.

Unfortunately, Wei Yan is not from Great Wei.

But right now is not the time to think about these things, Guo Xun calmed down and began to arrange for tonight's duty.

The night gradually became denser.

After entering the middle of the night, behind the city wall of Huguan, everything began to become completely silent, and there was no more sound.

Even the top of the city was silent.

The longer the time dragged on, the more anxious Guo Xun became.

Probably because he felt too depressed and hot, he simply walked out of the turret, came to the city wall, and looked out of the city.

But the darkness of the night covered everything, except for the high mountains outside the Huguan Pass, there was still a dark silhouette.

The trees on the mountain were already hidden in the blackness, let alone being able to see the figure he wanted to see.

Only the city gate below could occasionally hear a dog bark or two.

Other than that, Guo Xun could only hear the beating of his own heart and a slight shortness of breath.

Looking up at the sky full of stars, Guo Xun was muttering something to himself, but he didn't seem to say anything.

After an unknown amount of time, a flame suddenly lit up on the nearest mountain outside Guancheng.

Then, the second, the third.

The three flames were a little faint, but in Guo Xun's eyes, they were as bright as the bright moon!

"Come……"

He just yelled a word, and suddenly bit his tongue tightly again.

He turned around abruptly and ran back to the turret like a gust of wind.

"coming!"

The dozen or so people who had been staying in the turret all stood up suddenly when they saw Guo Xun rushing in and saying these two words.

"coming?"

"coming!"

Under the candlelight, Guo Xun's face was even distorted with excitement.

"Quick, get ready."

I don't know how many rehearsals, these people set off immediately.

"You take people to the city gate, and immediately raise the winch when you hear the signal from the city!"

"You, take someone to block the intersection, in case there are thieves rushing over!"

"Also, these hanging baskets, just in case..."

The county soldiers on the city wall were also quickly alarmed and became a little noisy.

"Shut up! Don't make any noise, lest you disturb the people in the city!"

Guo Xun followed and ordered:

"Let them all take the title! Whoever dares to drop it will be dealt with according to military law!"

This time, there was no other sound except Wei Junxie's low scolding, and the occasional slight clash of weapons.

After arranging all this, Guo Xun went back to the top of the city and asked people to light three torches and shake them vigorously back and forth.

Then he widened his eyes, staring closely at the dark city below.

At this time, Guo Xun felt that time passed so slowly, as if there was no flow.

When he felt that the night seemed to be over, three flames finally appeared under the city and flickered.

At this time, Guo Xun finally couldn't suppress his excitement, and kept calling out:

"Hurry up!"

After the torch at the top of the city responded, it sent a signal to the gate inside the city.

The winch began to rattle.

"Wow woof!"

"Wow, woof woof..."

The police dogs guarding the city gate didn't know if they noticed something was wrong, or they heard the strange noise outside the city gate.

They began to become restless and issued warning sounds to the people inside the city gate.

Soon, more than a dozen police dogs tied to the city gate were barking wildly.

Their barking even caused a chain reaction among the watchdogs in the city in the distance.

"It's so noisy! Tell them to shut up, or they will wake up the thieves behind!"

Wei Junxi, who was leading people to turn the winch of the city gate, ordered impatiently.

After a while of scrambling, the barking of the dog was suppressed for a while, and then it started barking again.

"Into it's mother!"

The leader couldn't help but cursed.

However, he could only curse, because at this time, the city gate had already made harsh teeth-like grinding noises.

Wei Jun, who had been waiting outside for a long time, couldn't wait to squeeze in when the city gate was opened and just able to enter and exit.

"Light the torches!"

The leading General Wei Jun ordered directly.

The city gate continued to be pulled up, and more and more Wei troops poured into the pass.

The torches were also continuously lit, and soon, the outside of the city gate was as bright as day.

The noise of Wei Jun and the barking of dogs mixed together, making the city gate lively.

General Wei, the leader, glanced at the tethered police dogs not far away, saw them barking their teeth and barked in this direction, and directly drew out his knife and stepped forward.

"Shua!"

A dog's head was beheaded.

The rest of the police dogs seemed to be strangled all of a sudden, only daring to let out a low whimper.

It's just that the abnormal barking of the police dogs before finally alarmed the Han army camp in the distance.

"what happened?"

A team leader was in a light sleep, so he got up in a daze, came to the open area of ​​the camp, and looked towards the city gate.

"I don't know."

The captain of the guard on duty at the camp was also a little puzzled.

"How long have you been calling?"

"It's been a while."

"Didn't the city send anyone over?"

"No."

"That should be fine?"

When he said this, the team rate himself was a little uncertain.

Guo Canjun is leading the team tonight, no matter how bad the county soldiers are, if something happens, there is no way they can't even get a message out.

But what about those barking dogs?

Those dogs at the city gate are not ordinary dogs, but they are specially used in the military...

While he was wondering, the dog barking at the city gate suddenly stopped.

Listening again, he did not hear the dog barking at the city gate, and the team leader breathed a sigh of relief:

"It seems that there is nothing wrong..."

At this time, the sentry guard who was on duty on the arrow tower trotted over:

"There seems to be something wrong with the city gate!"

"What?"

"There seems to be people gathered at the city gate, and there are still fires!"

"What happened?"

"Quickly, send someone to wake him up, go and have a look!"

...

"Teacher, the gate of the city has been completely controlled by us."

Sima Yi, who had been waiting outside the city, laughed heartily when he heard this:

"Okay! Let's go, enter the city!"

After the Wei army entered the city, Guo Xun had already descended from the city wall and was waiting inside the gate.

"Xiaoxian, you have made great contributions!"

As soon as Sima Yi entered the city, he dismounted from his horse and quickly walked forward. Before Guo Xun could speak, he had tightly grasped Guo Xun's arms:

"Invincible merit, you have established an inexhaustible merit, Xiaoxian!"

When Guo Xun saw Sima Yi, he couldn't help being surprised and delighted:

"Teacher actually led the army here?! It's too risky!"

Sima Yi laughed:

"Compared to Xiaoxian entering the thief's den personally, I am not at all adventurous!"

As he spoke, he patted Guo Xun's arm vigorously.

It can be seen that Sima Yi, who is sophisticated and calculating, can make these actions, which shows his excitement.

At this time, someone came to report: "Teacher, all the gates and key points of the city have been controlled by us!"

"Oh? It went so smoothly?"

Sima Yi was a little surprised:

"Is there no resistance?"

Guo Xun laughed and said:

"Teacher, the thieves in the pass have already been transferred away by me tonight."

"Okay!"

Sima Yi repeatedly praised him, and held his hand tightly, unwilling to let go, "I don't know where to transfer them first?"

"I'm afraid he is sleeping soundly in the camp at this time."

The two laughed again.

"Did you hear that?" Sima Yi looked at Guo Huai who was next to him, "General Guo, order your troops immediately..."

Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden noise in front of him.

A county soldier came staggeringly:

"It's not good, bandit army, bandit army is coming here, they want to force their way into the intersection, we can't stop..."

Guo Xun was shocked when he heard this.

But Sima Yi's expression remained unchanged, and he smiled lightly:

"It's just right, lest the soldiers go looking for them."
