Chapter 872 Good news from Tongguan (Part 1)
When Gao Guiying found Zhang Shun, he had just finished having sex with Li Sanniang.
It turned out that on this day, Zhang Shun came to see the child. Li Sanniang remembered Mrs. Lu's instructions and asked Zhang Shun if he had any ideas for aphrodisiac.
Zhang Shun also said that he didn't come to her place often in the past, and she felt a little lonely, so he took the opportunity to get started.
Li Sanniang has been pregnant for more than two years now, and she is a little intolerable without being able to perform the courtesy of Zhou Gong for a long time. So, half-heartedly, the two of them accomplished something good.
When Gao Guiying came in, the two of them were still disheveled and dripping with sweat. It was obvious that they had just had sex.
She couldn't help but spat, blushed and cursed: "How horny are you, doing this in broad daylight!"
In this day and age, it was a serious disrespect to show off prostitution. Li Sanniang couldn't help but blush with embarrassment. She opened her mouth to say something in defense, but she couldn't.
Fortunately, Zhang Shun is thick-skinned and he was a modern person in his previous life. He is not ashamed but proud of it.
He smiled and said: "What's it worth? I'm doing the courtesy of Zhou Gong, what do I do to other saints? You don't want to have a fight too!"
"Bah! Who has the time to do this with you!" Gao Guiying spat.
In fact, she and Zhang Shun often did this kind of thing in private in the past, so naturally they couldn't be tough in front of him.
She shook the letter in her hand and said: "Urgent military information, a letter from the countryside, the rebel army defeated Zuo Guangxian and conquered the natural dangers of Tongguan in one fell swoop!"
"Oh?" Zhang Shun was very surprised, and he didn't expect Chen Changzhen to succeed so quickly.
He took the letter and looked at it, only to see that the wax seal was still there, with Chen Changzhen's special seal stamped on it.
Zhang Shun opened it casually and saw Chen Changzhen's familiar handwriting appearing in front of him.
It turned out that after Zhang Shun returned to Luoyang due to the "fire in his backyard", Chen Changzhen followed Zhang Shun's strategy and launched an attack on Tongguan.
The rebel generals have two "Qingtian General Cannons", more than ten "Flying Guns", more than ten "Golden Cannons", "Field Cannons" and various Franchise machine guns and general cannons ranging in size from dozens to dozens. The gates were lined up in a row, bombarding Tongguan day and night.
Although Tongguan is as solid as a rock, the rebel artillery is like a hammer, hammering the city over and over again.
"If the thief fights to the end, he will be in trouble!" Shaanxi Zuo Guangxian stood on Tongguan City, looking at the dense artillery under the city, he couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.
Although Tongguan is extremely strong, although the artillery of this era cannot destroy the city wall in a short time, it is not without some damage to Guancheng.
If the attacking party can be patient, use water milling skills, and fight little by little, the city wall of Tongguan will be damaged sooner or later.
Seeing that the commander-in-chief was worried, the deputy general couldn't help but console him: "General, don't worry, the art of war says: 'One blast will make you stronger, then it will weaken again, and three times you will be exhausted!'"
"The thieves have been fighting hard for a long time, and they have already reached the end of their war effort. They will definitely not be able to penetrate Lu's armor. What worries does the general have?"
"My worry is not with the thieves like Chen Changzhen and Cao Wenzhao, but with the obedient thieves!" Zuo Guangxian, the commander-in-chief of Shaanxi Province, sighed, "People like Chen Qiyu and Hong Chengchou, the former governors, were all experienced in military affairs, so they became obedient. Broken by thieves, the dead and injured will be scattered everywhere."
"I heard that there are two treasures for obedient thieves. The first is: the flag with the word handsome; the second is: the drum of injustice! When the flag with the word handsome comes out, the thief will come in person; when the drum of injustice is sounded, the thief will fight for his life."
"Now that the handsome flag has arrived, I am afraid that Tongguan will be difficult to defend. This is one of them."
"Secondly, since Hong Chengchou, the governor of the five provinces, was defeated and has disappeared, the governor of Shaanxi, Gan Xuekuo, is a pedantic scribe. He has too much time to take care of himself when there are rogue bandits in Qin. How can he have any spare power to support us?"
"If things continue like this, I'm afraid we can only sit and guard the lone city, watching helplessly as the thieves break through the city and break into the city!"
After a while, Shaanxi Commander-in-Chief Zuo Guangxian shook his head again and said with a smile: "Shun thieves always like to win by surprise. You must also be careful and guard against being taken advantage of!"
After receiving the order from the commander-in-chief, the officers and soldiers suddenly became extremely nervous. Send soldiers to patrol and monitor in the morning and evening, for fear that the rebels will steal the city.
After three or five days of this, Zuo Guangxian, the careful Shaanxi military commander, discovered the clues and found out that the rebels often sent people to sneak to the bank of the Yellow River.
Zuo Guangxian then said decisively: "Now that the thieves are in a hurry to attack the city, they will definitely try their best. How can they have time to do anything on the river bank? They must be collecting boats and wood to prepare to sneak across the Yellow River!"
"I intend to surprise you tonight and take advantage of my unpreparedness to raid this place, look for the ships and timber, and burn them all in one fell swoop to avoid future troubles!"
Sure enough, as Zhang Shun expected, since Tongguan was so close, the officers and soldiers could easily detect the movements of Jindou Pass. The rebels' secret search for ships was also discovered by Zuo Guangxian, who was guarding Tongguan.
That night, Zuo Guangxian sent his soldiers out of Shanhaiguan under the cover of darkness, trying to attack the rebels and burn the ships, wood and other items collected by the rebels.
Unexpectedly, he was discovered by the highly vigilant rebels and was severely defeated.
The defeated officers and soldiers fled to Tongguan, knocked on the door and asked to enter the city. However, Zhang Rujing led the rebel army to pursue and push too hard. Zuo Guangxian only ordered his soldiers to fire artillery to help, but did not dare to open the gate.
The rebels then slaughtered all the officers and soldiers who had left the pass and placed them at the foot of the pass. During this time, the sounds of wailing and screaming continued all night long. The officers and soldiers were trembling with fear and their morale became even more depressing.
Zuo Guangxian had no choice but to send a letter to Wu Di, the governor of Shanxi. Ask him to urge the Jin soldiers to guard Fenglingdu to prevent the rebels from entering Shanxi and to take a detour to cross the river elsewhere.
Unexpectedly, Chen Changzhen had already ordered his soldiers to secretly transport three flying guns and two golden cannons to Linzhi Plain.
On the second night, Chen Changzhen was unable to go out in person because his old injury had not healed. Then he sent his cousin Li Mou to lead eight hundred men who dared to die, crossed the Linzhi Plateau and entered the forbidden ditch.
Forbidden Valley is a deep, north-south naturally dangerous valley at the south gate of Tongguan. According to historical records, there is a valley on the right side of Tongguan. People are forbidden to travel on weekdays to discuss tax collection. It is called "Forbidden Pit" or "Forbidden Valley".
In this valley, "the bushes and vines are as dense as weaving", and "the narrow roads are dangerous and compete with apes".
There are also twelve consecutive cities to guard the city, "from the southern suburbs to the mountain, it covers thirty miles, and the twelve consecutive cities are one city for three miles. Each city has a hundred soldiers, and in the middle city to strengthen the soldiers, there are more firearms and stones to connect In response, as fast as the wind and rain, there are hundreds of people, how can they surpass and fly across?"
This was the severe situation Li You faced after he climbed over the mountains and ridges and went through all kinds of hardships to reach Forbidden Valley.
"General!" Most of Li Mou's trusted soldiers were bodyguards and martial artists from Huaiqing Prefecture. Although most of them had traveled across mountains and ridges, they had never encountered such a dangerous terrain and such an important situation. . Everyone looked at the deep ditch on one side of the cliffs on both sides, feeling a little uneasy.
Li Mou couldn't help but said angrily: "We are following our brothers to leave Huaiqing to jointly carry out important events for King Shun. We want to seek wealth together and pass it on to our descendants!"
"At a time when King Shun's foundation has been established and his career is about to flourish, we have traveled thousands of miles away from our hometown and climbed over the mountains and ridges to Jingou. We have made great achievements through the ages. Is there any way out? Our lives are hanging by a thread, and we are in a dilemma. Can we Is there any way out? Is there any way out for my parents, wife and children at home?"
"Now I want to die if I advance, and I want to die if I retreat! I have heard that 'two rats fight in a hole, the brave one will win'; I also heard that 'the brave one will win when they meet on a narrow road'. We can only have a chance of survival by fighting to the death. How can we imitate women and children? You are so timid!"
"Where are the swordsmen and axemen? But if we line up behind the formation, kill anyone who dares to cower! Kill anyone who dares to run back! Kill those who are slow! We will not return to our division until these twelve connected cities are broken!"
"Good!" After hearing the words, all the soldiers could not help but regain their morale. They unsheathed their swords and hung their bows on their strings. They regarded death as if they were home and marched north along the Forbidden ditch.
