Chapter 852: Sunrise in the East (77)

Under the watchful eyes of almost all the forces in the continent, Tian Dan launched an attack on Weishan Pass. Linshan Pass guarded Langya's passage into western Liaoning and was also the fundamental place of Gaoyuan's rule. Taking western Liaoning almost It destroyed half of the rule of Gao Yuan's Zhengdong Prefecture. Whether it is Jishi County, the current political and economic center of Zhengdong Prefecture, or the Hetao they just captured, in the current Zhengdong Prefecture system, they cannot compete with the importance of western Liaoning. sexual comparison

Xiaoshanguan was torn down into a piece of white ground by Zheng Xiaoyang, which made Tian Dan laugh out loud. This was almost like opening the door to him in Western Liaoning. Now, the people who stood in front of him and re-erected a Great Wall of flesh and blood were just the soldiers of the Eastern Expeditionary Army. The new First Army has 10,000 troops

In Tian Dan's eyes, the newly formed First Army was just a group of young men put together temporarily. How could it be his opponent to the elite Qi army? Now that Wei He's 20,000 men have broken into western Liaoning, their existence can turn the entire western Liaoning into a mess, even if they can After gathering more troops and horses again, they would not be able to reach the Weishan Pass, because Wei He might launch a sudden attack on any of the troops being assembled in western Liaoning at any time.

The garrison at Xiaoshanguan has become a lone army and will cease to exist under his attack.

Cui Chengxiu held a knife and stood on the top of a fortress, staring into the distance. As a student who was personally named by Gao Yuan, he was proud but also felt the pressure of Shandong University, because all his classmates regarded defeating him as an honor. He has been standing at the top of all his colleagues and worked hard. After graduation, he is still the first. With his excellent results, he became the commander of a battalion with thousands of people. Among this batch of classmates, he can be the best The only opponent I have is Gao Chengdong, another outstanding student.

As a refugee who didn't even have enough to eat when he was a boy, his parents went through many hardships and fled all the way to areas controlled by the Eastern Conquest Army. Cui Chengxiu especially cherishes the hard-won life now. He will never forget that on the way to escape, his young brothers and sisters did not survive the difficult escape journey. One night, he fell asleep and never woke up again. Whenever Cui Chengxiu couldn't help but burst into tears when he thought of burying the thin, almost skinny bodies of his younger siblings in that shallow earthen nest.

After finally arriving in western Liaoning, he was already on the verge of death. After his father poured a bowl of steaming porridge into his mouth to warm his stomach. He tenaciously survived the journey from Liaoxi to Jishi County. Although he still couldn't eat enough, he had a bowl of hot porridge in his mouth every day. Compared with the previous escape, it was already heaven. He was full of gratitude. After arriving all the way to Jishi County, their family was allocated 300 acres of land, although each building was not big. But a thatched house that can protect you from wind and rain, a strong cattle, grain, seeds and other supplies. He could never forget the scene of his father and mother holding each other's arms and crying. They were the first batch of refugee immigrants to arrive in Jishi County, so these things were distributed to them for free.

It was winter when they arrived. The fields cannot be cultivated yet, but Jishi City is under construction, and my parents come to the city to look for work. Although it was hard work, the daily work was enough for their family of three to survive. He could not forget that after his father would go around the land allocated to their family every day,

That smile filled with happiness and contentment, looking at the land, was like looking at his precious child.

He could not forget the spring of the second year, when the oxen pulled the iron plow, plowed out the first ridge of spring soil, and sprinkled the first handful of seeds. The smiles of the family echoed in the sky, ah, not only My family, next to my own land, there are also refugees who have fled like them. We all come from all over the world, some are from Qin, some are from Zhao, some are from Wei, and some are from Yan. But at that moment, in everyone's hearts, There is only one person, and that is the governor of Zhengdong Mansion, Gao Yuan

In the spring of this year, my father sent me to school. At that time, the first school in Jishi City officially opened, and I became one of the few students in this school. My mother once lost a labor force for the family. And she complained about her father, but was scolded by her father, saying that her mother had long hair, short knowledge, and didn't study. How could she get ahead? In my hometown, scholars were the most respected people. Now that my family has land, my parents will work in the fields when the farming is busy. When the farming is slack, the two of them will go to the city to get work. There are always countless people in the city. opportunities to make money

It was his father's wise decision that allowed him to enter Jishicheng Military University three years later. After entering Jishicheng Military University, he became a soldier. The salary is available. When she took home her monthly salary, her mother's smile was mixed with joy, because she knew that her son was a soldier, and if he became a soldier, he would definitely go to the battlefield.

Yes, I want to go to the battlefield, I want to protect Governor Gao, and this piece of paradise that was conquered by Zhengdong Mansion. I don’t want my parents and the people of Jishi County like my parents to be displaced, and I don’t want to have children like my younger brothers and sisters anymore. Frozen and hungry and died on the roadside

When he became a student at Jishi City Military University, he took advantage of an internship opportunity and followed a group of scouts into Langya County and found the place where he buried his younger brothers and sisters, but there was nothing left. He didn't even have a bone. None of them were found. At that time, he and his parents were too hungry to dig a deep hole. The remains of his younger siblings were only lightly covered with soil. Thinking about it now, they must have been buried in the ground. The beasts smelled it and became their meal.

Cui Chengxiu burst into tears and returned to the Military University. From then on, he became even more taciturn and worked harder. The more he read, the more he understood that those people on the mainland would never tolerate the existence of Zhengdong Mansion. Yes, one day, the war will come, and my mission is to use all my strength to defend my homeland. Yes, this is my homeland.

Feeling that his eyes were a little sore, Cui Chengxiu firmly grasped the dagger at his waist. It was given to them by the governor himself. Only the best will get it. He looked back to his left side. Over there were the two sides of Gao Chengdong's defense area. One on the left and one on the right, they formed the defensive vanguard of the newly formed First Army. Gao Chengdong also had the same short sword.

There was a layer of fog floating in the air in the early morning, and the field of vision could only stay about a hundred meters, and then it was blurry and could no longer be seen clearly. I raised my head and took a deep breath. There was some strange smell floating in the slightly sweet air in the early morning. He laughed coldly, a sneak attack? Tian Dan has tens of thousands of troops. This is too stingy. How can the defensive positions set up by the Eastern Expedition Army be easily attacked by surprise?

In the mist, the sound of jingling bells rang out, and on the long defense line, the sweet and crisp sound of bells rang out one after another. But what accompanies these beautiful bell sounds is not the singing that goes along with them, but the thundering sound of killing and shouting.

The Qi army really wanted to sneak attack the Qi army general Zuo An who was ordered to attack the defense line of Xiaoshanguan. Tian Dan was convinced that the opponent was a newly recruited young man. Since he was a young man, his military quality must be limited. At this time in the early morning, , is a time when we are most sleepy and when people are most relaxed. He saw the foggy scene in the early morning as a rare good opportunity, and organized a death squad of a thousand people, led by him personally, to quietly move towards the defensive position of Xiaoshanguan. Behind him, thousands of Qi troops followed silently. Once he succeeded in breaking through, the large army behind him would surge forward.

From the left bank's perspective. They were just a group of young men, and there was no solid city wall for them to rely on, so they only relied on the fortresses they built in a hurry. What can be done? During the day, when he followed Prime Minister Tian to observe the formation, he saw that some forts were even built crookedly. He and other generals also laughed loudly at the Eastern Expedition Army.

When the first crisp sound of bells sounded in the mist, Zuo An's heart beat wildly. Before he could make a second move, countless bells sounded one after another, and his heart sank slightly, sneak attack After failing, the other party squatted down and touched the ground. Sure enough, there were a lot of thin and tough wires close to the ground, about an inch high. If it was daytime, you could see them at a glance. But under this weather, where can we find it?

"Assault!" He stood up and roared loudly. Now that he has discovered it, it will be a life-and-death battle. The elite Qi army who has experienced hundreds of battles will not be afraid of some strong men who have been put together temporarily. ?

More than a thousand death squads no longer concealed their presence and rushed forward with shouts. Immediately, the sound of falling down came from the front. In the fog, Cui Chengxiu pulled up the high and low in front of the position all night. The vertical and horizontal wires were originally designed to prevent night attacks, but the enemy did not come at night. At this time, I was grateful that the haze did not let my arrangements be in vain.

Between the wires, there are criss-crossing traps. These traps are covered with a layer of dead grass branches, and then sprinkled with a thin layer of soil. Some of them are deliberately piled with piles of rocks. From the outside, there is no difference between them and the ground on one side, but when one steps on them, it can only be a tragedy.

In the trap, the sharp spear blade inserted upside down silently harvests the opponent's life.

Zuo An roared wildly, brandishing the sword in his hand, and ran forward. In front of him and behind him were his most personal guards, who were also the strongest and bravest warriors. The sword cut the tight wire from time to time, making a crashing sound. The luck of the left bank was revealed. In the fog, he ran all the way and did not fall into the trap. Instead, he rushed out of the fog smoothly and advanced to within the range of his field of vision.

He saw the fortress positions of the Eastern Conquest Army a hundred steps away, the young general standing with a sword on top of the fortress, and the spears standing upright behind the parapets connecting the fortresses. , and the cold light of the flashing crossbow arrows

Turning around and looking around, he changed his face in shock. The soldiers who rushed out with him were only about a hundred people. They were surrounding him and looked at him nervously.

Cui Chengxiu looked coldly at the enemies rushing into his field of vision. The one rushing at the front, judging from the armor on his body, should be a general of the enemy. However, in Cui Chengxiu's eyes, he was different from the other Qi troops around him. There's no difference, they're all dead

The long sword was unsheathed, raised, and then dropped

"Fire the arrow!" he shouted (To be continued...)
