Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 659 I'm a Barbarian (please subscribe!)
The cavalry of the Ming Defense Force did not intend to pursue these fleeing cavalry.

One reason is that they are not familiar with the surrounding terrain and are afraid of being ambushed.

The second is that the target they want to kill is the infantry.

Therefore, the unlucky ghosts behind the break are the infantry in the middle.

They didn't know that their own Han Taiji and the cavalry on both wings had all fled, and they kept rushing forward!

The small line infantry of the Ming Dynasty Defense Force fired a final volley at the Mongolian armored infantry who were close at hand, and then, amidst the rapid beating of military drums, they took the initiative to raise their bayonets and launched a countercharge against the Mongolian armored infantry!
This last round of face-to-face volley directly defeated the Mongolian infantry!

The momentum of their charge was also interrupted because of this, and then they were defeated by the fierce counter charge of the Ming Defense Force!
Subsequently, the cavalry of the National Defense Forces began to clean up the mess and captured nearly [-] Mongolian soldiers in one fell swoop.

In this battle, Daming still won more with less, and basically defeated the Sun family's strongest military force in Qinghai, and once again shocked the other Mongolian ministries in Qinghai!
The recovery of the Qinghai area is only a matter of time, and the rest is to staking the land!
However, everything is not over so easily, and the Sun family does not intend to sit still.

Surrender, that is the final bottom line, if you can struggle, you must struggle.

Since owning the Junggar Prairie, Sun Sike's heart has become wilder.

Sun Sike is very smart. He clearly understands that if he wants to survive in Central Asia, he must make good use of the Qing Dynasty and Rakshasa.

Don't look at him taking advantage of the fire, but for the Qing Dynasty and Rakshasa, he still conducts diplomacy as a younger brother.

No, Sun Sike and Luo Sha hit it off immediately, and the two sides have launched a close cooperation!

The Raksha Kingdom was already very upset that Daming had cut off a large area of ​​Siberia. If there was a chance to add obstacles to Daming, the old man would be extremely happy.

Lao Maozi saw that Sun Sike had the intention of harassing the border of Ming Dynasty, so he immediately sent Cossack cavalry to help them, and he also sold some old arms to the Sun family.

With the help of Luo Sha, Sun Chengen, the eldest son of Sun Sike in the northern battlefield, had an idea and wanted to encircle Gansu and save Qinghai.

Their Sun family is now half a nomadic people, nomadic people, then we must vigorously carry out nomadic invasions, anyway, I am a barbarian!

A thousand miles away from Qinghai, Suzhou, Gansu, Ming Dynasty.

Later generations called Suzhou Jiuquan.

Suzhou means "Sujing Ningbian", and the word "Su" in Gansu is taken from here.

As a natural wetland with rich water and grass and suitable for settlement, and a place where nomadic and agricultural peoples have been fighting for a long time, this place has both the heroic spirit of the Central Plains Dynasty to expand the territory, expand the land, seal the marquis and worship generals, and also has the solitary smoke of the Jiangnan desert outside the Great Wall.

"The bright moon rises from the Tianshan Mountains, among the vast sea of ​​clouds."

The Shiyang River, Heihe River and Shule River, the tributaries of the Qilian River, pass through the majestic Gobi, telling the legend of this land in the sparkling light from ancient times to the present.

In Suzhou, there is a Yumen Pass.

This is the border gate between the new Ming Dynasty and the new Junggar Khanate.

This Yumen Pass was rebuilt by Xin Daming.

Because the original Yumen Pass has long been abandoned.

Since Xixia occupied the entire Hexi Corridor in the third year of Emperor Renzong of the Northern Song Dynasty (1036 A.D.), Yumen Pass disappeared from the historical records.

Under the erosion of wind and sand, Yumen Pass gradually disappeared, until the arrival of the new Ming Dynasty's army, this majestic pass was erected again.

Yumen Pass, which has been transformed into a military fortress, is bathed in the golden light of the setting sun!
I saw that there was a tall tower standing in the center of the city on the front of Yumen Pass, with a length and width of four or five feet, and a height of five feet.

On the top of the tower, a black iron frame erected a triangular high platform with a height of nearly five feet, and a narrow round platform at the top, just like the sound platform on the top of the main mast of a battleship.

A tripod telescope is set on the round platform.

Under the tower, officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty Defense Force were lining up to get meals with enamel jars.

According to the regulations of the Ministry of War, remote and treacherous border areas like Yumenguan are all based on the system of changing defenses.

Every two years, a group of soldiers are drawn to garrison. Repeatedly, it not only avoids the situation of no defense at the border, but also prevents the soldiers from living in the border for a long time and being isolated from the world.

There are about [-] National Defense Forces stationed at Yumenguan, most of whom are soldiers transferred from Shaanxi and Sichuan.

A young soldier covered two jars filled with food and stuck them in the net bag holders on the left and right sides of the backpack.

Seeing his attire, the cook in charge of cooking for the soldiers muttered, "Brother, are you going upstairs? The bag is empty, and you just brought a blanket instead of a cotton jacket? You're not afraid of freezing to death! It's nearly ten feet away. At a high place, the wind cannot be blocked by two layers of cotton clothes."

The young soldier replied: "Brother, I am new here. The squad leader is afraid that I will not be able to move smoothly while carrying the padded jacket, so I will take it upstairs first."

The chubby cook looked at the young soldier with pity: "The higher-ups are really ruthless in employing people. Instead of practicing in the rear, they will just push you to Yumen Pass. This is the front line!"

What the cook said was true. Among Daming's current borders, the Gansu area is relatively dangerous.

On the one hand, it is necessary to suppress those Hui people who slipped through the net, and on the other hand, it is necessary to face the Junggar Mongols under the Sun family.

However, the chef's words did not affect the mentality of the soldiers of the National Defense Army. He smiled complacently: "I am No. 1 in the Suzhou Army Tournament, so of course I have to put it in the most important place."

The cook also smiled and gave a thumbs up: "Brother, Yumenguan will not let you down!"

He continued: "Judging from your accent, you are from Shaanxi, how much can you drink?"

The young Shaanxi soldier replied: "He's from Xi'an Prefecture, he doesn't drink much, maybe a catty."

The old cook threw over a flat glass bottle the size of a palm, with the word "Army" written on the paper seal on the bottle: "Little Shaanxi, this is Sichuan grain wine, two taels, take it to warm up."

Little Shaanxi, who had been nicknamed, was very grateful. After quickly putting the wine bottle into the backpack, he hurried to the tower.

The other soldiers beside him were dissatisfied: "Your Majesty strictly prohibits the army from drinking, how can he drink?"

The old cook sneered: "He is a signal soldier, if you are willing to climb ten feet high and blow the cold wind all night, I will give it to you!"

Things in the frontier must always be treated specially.

The booing stopped immediately, and everyone couldn't help swallowing when they looked at the tall tower above.

If that's the price of licensed drinking, forget it.

And the soldier called Little Shaanxi was named Huang Hansheng.

He was silently climbing the tower made of steel.

Fortunately, this tower has a simple iron ladder hanging from it, and it is not difficult to climb.

However, due to the absence of a safety rope, Huang Hansheng's confidence dropped step by step with the height.

He desperately suppressed the urge to look down, and muttered: "I can do it, I'm not afraid of heights!"

But the backpack that didn't feel heavy on his back was also getting heavier a little bit. When he felt the iron ladder began to sway slightly, the backpack was even heavier, as if someone was pulling him down from the ladder.

"Ouch mother..."
