Great Military Division

Chapter 133 Soldiers Linwu Fort
Xiaoyaozhuang.

The head of Wubao Castle.

Previously, He Xian said that Xiaoyao Village was easy to defend but difficult to attack because it was surrounded by mountains on three sides and water on one side.

If Niu Fu's soldiers and horses really searched here, they could only attack from the front, and there was no second way.

However, even this side of the city wall is only more than 50 feet long, equivalent to less than [-] meters.

The shorter length means that the defensive operation area is shorter and fewer soldiers and horses are needed. Liu Bian can concentrate elite soldiers to defend, while the rest of the soldiers transport defensive equipment, and the distribution of troops is more reasonable.

In addition, the Wubao city wall is made of local materials and built of block stones. Although it is only three feet high, equivalent to less than eight meters, it is stronger than it is. The embedded city gate has been reinforced by Liu Bian, and it is not easily damaged by hitting wood .

Wubao was originally built by He Xian for the elderly, and there is no shortage of food and grass inside, but it has no defensive equipment, and the bows and arrows most needed for the defense of the city are even rarer.

Recently, all members of the He clan went to battle. Under Liu Bian's command, they made a lot of defense equipment. The feathers on the wings of chickens and ducks raised in the village were almost bald, and they only made [-] arrows. .

now.

Liu Bian led the army commander Zhang Zhen, and the ranger Deng Zhan and others to familiarize themselves with the latest defense equipment at the top of the city:

"This kind of defensive equipment is known as the Yaksha. It is one foot long and one foot in diameter. On Thursdays, it is reversed and the wood is five inches long. Wheels are installed at both ends, and the wheel diameter is two feet. It is lowered by iron cables and winches. Collect it and use it to attack the ants who attack the city."

"There is also this kind of defensive equipment, which is called the wolf tooth racket. It is five feet long and four feet five inches wide. Hundreds of iron nails five inches long are scattered on the racket, three inches out of wood, and four sides are embedded with blades. , a four-cornered nail ring, slipped and twisted on a pulley with a rope, can attack the ant-attached."

"The advantage of the two is that they can repeatedly kill the enemy. At present, our army is short of defensive equipment. With them, the dilemma of lack of defensive equipment can be alleviated."

"You have to practice and use it repeatedly until you are proficient in it."

"Understood?"

Army Sima Zhang Zhen cupped his fists together: "Don't worry, Your Highness, this matter will be left to the general."

Liu Bian nodded: "Zhang Sima is thick but fine. No wonder General Wen Yuan thinks highly of you and promotes you as military Sima."

Zhang Zhen chuckled: "Actually, the end general followed the general when he came from Bingzhou. We are all from Yanmen County."

Liu Bian nodded, suddenly realized: "So that's the case."

"Your Highness~~"

At this moment, a voice sounded from under the city.

Liu Bian turned his head to look.

However, the young general He Yun came in a hurry, his expression was a little flustered, he bowed his body and cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, there is bad news."

Liu Bian's face was calm, and he said lightly: "But there are bandits outside the mountain?"

He Yun nodded: "Well! According to reports from the He family's children, many organs on the roads outside the village have been triggered, and there are dried blood on the ground. It seems that the officers and soldiers have already checked here."

"Ah."

Liu Bian had expected that today would come, so he was not overly shocked, and immediately ordered: "Pass down the order, and from today onwards, no one is allowed to go out to investigate."

The way in and out of Xiaoyaozhuang is very complicated. Even if the officers and soldiers discover the existence of Xiaoyaozhuang, it may not be so easy to get in, but if one's family members are followed or held hostage when they go out, it is another matter.

Anyway, it has been less than five days since Qiaomao Sangong's book was circulated. Liu Bian has enough confidence to support Dong Fengqi. By that time, Niu Fu, as a direct descendant, must be transferred back to Luoyang, how can he stay in Nanyang.

The Alliance of Military Divisions has long asserted that only when Dong Fengqi is challenged can he truly get out of danger and have the possibility of free development, otherwise he will always be in the predicament of being hunted down.

He Yun cupped his hands: "I will understand in the end."

Liu Bian paused for a moment: "In addition, from now on, Xiaoyaozhuang will enter a state of combat readiness, and will be on duty day and night. Once there is an enemy situation, immediately beat the drum as a warning and gather to meet the enemy."

He Yun: "Here."

the next day.

Zhang Zhen is in charge of training soldiers and is proficient in using defensive equipment.

He Yun is a member of the He clan and is familiar with every corner of the village, so he is responsible for patrolling and guarding.

Three days later, a small team came to Xiaoyao Village and was killed by He Yun.

The next morning.

Wu Yangyang's soldiers and horses appeared outside Xiaoyao Village.

Sitting on his horse, Niu Fu carefully looked at the Wubao, and couldn't help but nodded in praise: "No wonder the remnants of the He family were not found, so they are hiding here."

"It's really secret here."

Looking at this Wubao that is integrated with nature, Zhang Zi couldn't help feeling: "This Wubao must have been built many years ago. It is hard to imagine that the He family, who was in full swing at that time, would build a Wubao in the mountains."

Zhang Zi admired him from the bottom of his heart.

After all, not everyone can maintain absolute sobriety in their heyday.

This gave Zhang Zi a new understanding of the He family.

Just when the two were amazed by it.

suddenly.

A voice sounded from the city:

"Gu is the king of Hongnong."

"Wait, which one is Niu Fu and which one is Zhang Zi?"

Liu Bian took a step forward and looked up at the dark soldiers and horses below.

Niu Fu rode his horse forward and said loudly, "Hmph! I am Niu Fu, General of Zhonglang, and this man is Zhang Zi, governor of Nanyang County."

Zhang Zi didn't want to come, but Niu Fu forced him. He didn't want to show off, but Niu Fu had already introduced him.

Although it was widely spread among the scholar-bureaucrats that King Hongnong escaped from Luoyang, after all, the imperial court did not respond positively, and no one dared to say it publicly.

As a last resort, Zhang Zi could only pretend to be stupid: "His Royal Highness, King Hongnong? General Niu, isn't he a wanted criminal by the court? How could it be His Royal Highness Hongnong!"

Niu Fu realized that he had said something wrong, but the matter had come to an end, he had already sentenced Liu Bian to death, so he just responded casually: "King Hongnong is in Luoyang, this person is a fake, Zhang Junshou must not believe it."

Zhang Zi naturally pushed the boat forward: "So that's the case, so I feel relieved."

Seeing this scene, Liu Bian could only chuckle: "Mr. Zhang, you are good at pretending to be stupid. It is precisely because of the courtiers like you that the court has become what it is today."

"A little Nanyang governor bought you off?"

"Zhang Zi!"

"Where is your character as a scholar?"

"Where is your loyalty and shame?"

"Your conscience! Where is it?"

A series of three reprimand questions, every sentence is sonorous and powerful, and it is resounding.

Zhang Zi was so scolded that his face was flushed, and he was speechless, as if he wanted to find a crack in the ground to sneak in.

In fact, Liu Bian himself knew that there were not a few people like Zhang Zi.

According to the introduction of the Military Division Alliance, not all the people who had been promoted by Dong Zhuo were willing to accompany the Yuan family to clean up the emperor's side when they were discussing Dong Fengqi.

Even Han Fu, the Jizhou herdsman who was an old official of the Yuan family's disciples, once hesitated: "Now we should help Yuan Shixie and Dong Zhuoxie?"

If it wasn't for Liu Zihui who was engaged in governance, he severely reprimanded: "Nowadays, we are raising troops to make our country, what are Yuan and Dong!"

What will happen to Han Fu is still unknown.

As for Zhang Zi?

Seeing how he fears Dong Ruhu now, Liu Bian felt disgusted.

It's hard to admit yourself in public, so how can you count on him to attack Dong?
It is simply impossible.

Fortunately, the military division alliance had already prepared, otherwise it would not be so easy to really capture Nanyang.
