The Legend of Shushan Xuanjian

Chapter 403 General Faqiu
Enter the Dongmen Camp in the morning, and go to the Heyang Bridge in the evening.

The setting sun illuminated the banner, and Ma Mingfeng was in a bad mood.

The sound of grief is loud, and the strong man is miserable.

May I ask who the general is?I'm afraid it's Huo whoring Yao.

(Today, the previous chapter has been revised and more than [-] words have been added. I hereby inform you)

While Zhang Xun was holding on to Yongqiu, the Tang army in Taiyuan was also facing a fierce siege.

After Shi Siming flattened Hebei, he set his sights on Taiyuan again.

Winning Hedong Road is of great significance to the Yan army.It can not only prevent Shuofang's army from going out of Jingxing in the east and threaten Fan Yang, but also prevent Shuofang's army from going south and besieging Luoyang.

In the first month of the second year of Zhide, Shi Siming from Boling, Cai Xide from Shangdang, Gao Xiuyan from Datong, and Niu Tingjie from Fanyang led a total of more than [-] troops to rush towards Taiyuan with a thunderous force.Once Taiyuan is captured, he can seize Hedong, and then drive straight into Shuofang, Hexi, Longyou and other places.

When the news came, all the generals in Taiyuan were afraid, and suggested that the city be repaired as soon as possible to prevent the Yan army from attacking.However, Li Guangbi gave up repairing the city wall, and said to the generals: "Taiyuan City is forty miles around, and the bandits are hanging down to start the campaign. They trapped themselves before seeing the enemy."

Just before the main force of the Yan army arrived in Taiyuan, early this morning, the small school reported that three people from the green forest begged to see General Li Guangbi.

When the city was besieged, people from the rivers and lakes visited, there must be a source.Li Guangbi didn't dare to be negligent, so he ordered his own soldiers and captains to invite the three of them into the tent of the Chinese army.

Three people entered the tent, two of them were in their fifties, one was short, slender, holding a brass bong, and looked like an escort; The appearance of a rich man.The third person is a farmer in his early thirties, with short stature and unattractive appearance.

These three people seemed ordinary, but when they saw the generals in the military camp, they were calm and calm, without the slightest embarrassment.

Li Guangbi had read countless people, so he knew that these three people must be talented people, so he quickly ordered someone to serve tea for the three people.

The short and fat man spoke first, and before he could say anything, he smiled first.He cupped his hands and said with a smile: "General Li has worked hard to protect Taiyuan and keep the people in one side safe. There is nothing good about it."

Li Guangbi hurriedly returned the courtesy and humility.

The short and fat man smiled and said, "My next son is Fu Sun, my younger brother Sun Gui, and my nephew Ping'an."

The generals laughed secretly, and thought: "Well, wealth and safety, the family will have everything."

Sun Fu seemed to have sensed the thoughts of the generals, and said with a smile: "Yes, wealth and safety, we country people named them for auspiciousness."

Li Guangbi thought to himself: "Look at words and demeanor, what a formidable character." Hastily put away his contempt.

Sun Fu said with a smile: "At the end of the Han Dynasty, my ancestors served in Cao Cao's army, so to speak, they were also members of the army.

The ancestors were afraid that future generations would suffer from hardship and starvation, so they passed down a shady craft.Although it is a trivial skill, it is the unique knowledge of our ancestors after all. In order not to let the family learning be lost, our two brothers occasionally try our skills.

A few days ago, my two brothers received a letter from a friend, saying that the battle of Taiyuan can make the family learning flourish, and advised me to come to the general to serve.

I discussed it with my brother, to protect the environment and the people, to accumulate virtue and do good deeds, this is a good thing!Better than the seven-level pagoda!
So I accepted the entrustment of this friend and came to the general camp to see if there is any place for my two brothers, so as to do the work of dogs and horses. "

Li Guangbi listened to Sun Fu's babbling, and after talking about it for a long time, he finally figured out the origins of these three people—the hereditary general Faqiu Zhonglang and Captain Mojin, the masters of today's fighting world!
Li Guangbi was overjoyed, a thousand soldiers are easy to get and a general is hard to find, not to mention that this is a master of serious masters!

……

These two are Bai Fu's old friends—"Sun Dashan" Sun Fu and "Tu Xingsun" Sun Gui.

It turned out that on the way to Suiyang County, Bai Fu saw the military report that Shi Siming led the troops to Taiyuan.Taiyuan has an important strategic position and cannot be lost.

Bai Fu was at a loss for doppelgängers, and suddenly thought of these two seniors from the Dao Dou world.

Although Bai Fu had never been to Taiyuan, he heard Master Zhongsi talk about the geographical conditions of Hedong Road and Taiyuan many times:

The soil of Hedong Road is hard and thick, and there are many cave dwellings in the north. The settlements are like castles, and there are cave dwellings such as Yayao and Quanyao.

From another perspective, this kind of soil is also easy to build tunnels.Transform the single-mouthed hidden hole (commonly known as toad squat) in ordinary people's homes into a double-mouthed hidden tunnel that can enter and exit.This kind of tunnel can be equipped with crossbow arrow holes, traps, and openings, so that the tunnel can be developed from a hidden place for the common people to a battle channel for the army to scout and surprise the enemy.

Master Zhong Si's idea that tunnels can be used in battle gave Bai Fu a lot of inspiration.Bai Fu naturally thought of Sun Fu and Sun Gui, the two patriarchs who dug graves.

However, the world is in chaos at this time, where can I find these two people who usually hide their names?
Bai Fu mobilized the Central Plains gangs and underground organizations to find the two through the resources of the Sichuan Gang.In less than a month, the beggar gang with disciples all over the world found two people and brought Bai Fu's letter to them.

In the letter, Bai Fu expressed the righteousness of the nation. 'Saving people from water and fire is to accumulate virtue and do good deeds, which is the supreme kindness'.

There is a deep fear in the heart of every inverted fighter, fear of being retaliated by ghosts and ghosts.Once they have money, they are willing to do good deeds, give alms and pray for blessings.

Bai Fu had insight into the minds of the Sun brothers, and finally moved them with this point, mobilized the two old friends, and happily went to Taiyuan to assist Tang Jun.

……

After the Sun brothers inspected Taiyuan City, they designed the tunnel excavation map according to the terrain around the city wall, and connected the underground of the main road outside the city with a "Zhong"-shaped passage.

Dozens of days later, under the command of the Sun brothers, thousands of soldiers and civilians in Taiyuan went into battle, dug deep trenches around Taiyuan City, and built several "underground Great Walls" outside Taiyuan City.

The Sun brothers personally demonstrated the tunnel excavation: After digging the next section of the tunnel, dig down to a depth of more than 1 meter, and then dig forward to a length of more than 1 meter, and then pull it up to form a "concave" shape.

During the construction process, in order to solve the problems of ventilation and drinking water in the tunnel, the Sun brothers cleverly combined the ventilation openings of the tunnel with the utensils on the ground, such as chimneys, wells, wall tops, tree holes, etc.

After completion, the tunnels are like cobwebs, densely connected; the bunkers are like ant nests, layered on top of each other.The inside and outside of the city are connected, and the villages are connected. It can not only hide, hide people, transfer, but also store grain, grass, supplies, transport troops, fight, etc...

From time to time, Li Guangbi went into the tunnel to investigate the progress of the project, and he became more and more admirable for these two legendary General Faqiu and Captain Mojin.As the saying goes: There are specializations in the art industry.As far as the earthwork is concerned, I can't accept it!

Once the two master tomb robbers turn the techniques of "Looking for the Dragon Jue" and "Finishing the Gold and Ding the Caves" into the right path, they will have a new world by cutting mountains to make outlines and piercing stones for hiding places.

The built tunnels are generally two meters wide, one and a half meters high, and the top soil is more than two meters thick.There are lookout holes, crossbow arrow holes, ventilation holes, traps, movable flaps, guide signs, water wells, grain storage rooms, etc. in the tunnel.

The tunnel entrance is well concealed.There are camouflaged tunnel entrances on the walls, stoves, wells, pan bottoms, tree holes, and wild cliffs.

In order to prevent the enemy from entering the cave, Tang Jun built a trap at the lower end of the tunnel entrance. The trap was covered with a movable flap, and bamboo sticks and sharp knives were inserted upside down at the bottom.

The flap is usually supported by wooden sticks, and people can leave.Once Yan Bing enters the tunnel, Tang Jun can pull away the wooden stick supporting the flap. When Yan Bing steps on the flap, he will fall into a trap and be pierced by a sharp knife.

At the junction of two or more tunnels, there is an overturn—a wooden or stone cover with a shaft.After turning over a certain angle, a certain tunnel is blocked and another tunnel is opened.By turning over the mouth, Yan Bing can be induced to enter a trap or a dead end.Once in a dead end, Tang Jun can snipe Yan Bing through the arrow holes on both sides.

The main lane of the tunnel is divided into upper and lower tunnels.Tunnel branch lines criss-cross. "Chessboard Road" is like a maze. Without the leadership of Tang Jun, even if Yan Bing came in, he would lose his way.

If the Yan soldiers found the entrance of the cave and entered the tunnel, Tang Jun could use the observation holes in the tunnel to observe the movements of the Yan soldiers.

There are a large number of arrow holes distributed on the walls on both sides of the tunnel, under the base of the city wall, inside the sandwich wall, trenches and other junctions, main roads, and corners.

In the bunker behind the arrow hole, there is a single Zhuge Liannu for standing or sitting shooting.A single soldier of the Tang army can shoot and kill dozens of Yan soldiers, leaving no way for Yan soldiers who enter the tunnel to escape.

In order to prevent the Yan soldiers from destroying the tunnel with water, fire, and smoke, Tang Jun also installed bayonets, flaps, smoke-proof covers, and waterproof doors in the tunnel, or dug the tunnel to varying heights, thicknesses, and thicknesses. It leads directly to the breakout of the distant village.

In this way, the tunnel becomes an underground fortress that can be attacked, defended, and retreated.

In addition, the Sun brothers asked soldiers to use the soil from digging trenches to build more clay and mud barriers in the city, making hundreds of thousands of clay and mud barriers.None of the generals knew where these mud barriers would be used in the future.But in view of the status of the two in the industry, the generals dare not question them.

When the Yan army attacked the city and the city walls collapsed repeatedly, people discovered the magical effect of these clay barriers.Every time the Yan army broke through a city wall, Li Guangbi ordered people to plug the gap with clay and mud and quickly repair it, which made the Yan army who attacked the city very angry and had nothing to do.

　Enter the Dongmen Camp in the morning, and go to the Heyang Bridge in the evening.

　　The setting sun illuminated the banner, and Ma Mingfeng was in a bad mood.

　　There are tens of thousands of screens in Pingsha, and all the troops see their moves.

　　A bright moon hangs in the middle of the sky, making Yan Ye lonely.

　　The sound of grief is loud, and the strong man is miserable.

　　May I ask who the general is?I'm afraid it's Huo whoring Yao.
