Chapter 19 The Expedition of the God of War
April 10th.
The Grand Tutor of the Song Dynasty was in charge of the Privy Council, and Tong Guan, Duke of Chu, was the Xuanfu envoy of Hedong, Shaanxi, Hebei, and went north to patrol the border.
The streets inside Chenqiaomen were crowded with people. While watching the road, Tong Taishi's ceremonial guard slowly passed by. Tong Guan, the "God of War" of the Song Dynasty, was sitting upright on the horse, with a grand look on his face.
He has gone on a battle like this many times.
And they all returned in triumph.
No matter how much water these triumphs are, no matter how much he has made in his strategization, it must be admitted that in the more than ten years he took over the military power of the northwest, he did not do worse than those famous officials. At least the famous officials had not won the Hengshan, which had been in most half a century. Although this was the victory accumulated by the Song army for decades, the ambitious Battle of Yongle City, which the famous officials had ended in a disastrous defeat. At least this final victory was indeed achieved by Tong Guan.
Although there were some failures afterwards, Tong Guan, who seized Hengshan, always took the initiative in the northwest against Xixia.
There is also the development of Hehuang.
There is also pacified square wa.
No matter how many of these victories are really attributed to him, at least he returns as a winner.
This time he was also confident that he would still come back as a winner. He had more than 100,000 troops, and most of the elite soldiers and generals of the Song Dynasty were under his command. What he had to face was just a group of defeated soldiers. In his opinion, he didn't even need to fight. He could force the other party to surrender by setting up more than 100,000 troops to scare him, and then he could achieve the greatest dream of the Song Dynasty for more than 100,000 more than 100,000 troops.
It also made his life the most brilliant.
Become a king.
Whoever can conquer Youzhou will be granted the king.
This is the words of the ancestors of the Song Dynasty, and he is the destined person.
Protect Youyan and I Tong Guan!
Protect Youyan and I Tong Guan!
These seven words were constantly ringing in Taishi Tong's ears, and he even thought that God was telling him through the simple mountain citizen that the most brilliant victory was already waiting for him...
Well, that simple mountain man was lying in a donkey cart not far behind him.
"How do you use this weapon?"
Liu Qi walked next to Wang Yue's donkey cart, and he was somewhat struggling to pick up six pure pestles from the donkey cart.
This thing is roughly a giant three-eyed gun, of course, six-eyed gun, weighing more than seventy kilograms, so don't expect to use it when riding a horse. Twenty iron hoops were added in the first half, and they were densely packed with almost all of them. The craftsmen were ingenious and added dog-toothed barbs on it. In their words, they could hook the enemy off the horse.
This suggestion is still very good.
In addition, there is actually a strap. Because of the terrifying weight of 70 kilograms, the strap is an iron chain, and a large piece of cowhide is added to the shoulders as a shoulder pad.
Imagine appearing on the battlefield with this back...
It's a true comic style!
"You will know in the future!"
Wang Yue, who was lying on the donkey cart, said comfortably, with a warm spring light above his head.
He hadn't tried it, but the blow-up was not enough. The material of this thing was repeatedly refined bronze, and he was not prepared to make too much charge. At this time, it had actually been filled and was sealed with wax to prevent moisture. After the actual test was healed from Hebei's injuries, he secretly found a place where no one could be found so that he could take it out on the battlefield to surprise Tong Guan.
Speaking of which, Master Tong still needs to hold his thighs tightly.
"snort!"
Liu Qi snorted coldly in dissatisfaction.
Then he put the thing back into the donkey cart, but then he showed a gloating smile.
Wang Yue turned his head instinctively with vigilance, and then an egg suddenly flew out of the crowd watching the fun next to him. He instantly raised his hand to grab it...
"Miss, are you here to see me off?"
He said with a look of surprise.
In the crowd on the roadside, the young lady of the Zhang family looked at him gritted her teeth, and then smashed another egg in her hand.
Wang Yue instantly caught it with his other hand.
"Miss, I know your wishes, I will cook it myself."
He said, holding two eggs.
The crowd around was filled with joyful laughter. The young lady of the Zhang family turned around and carried a basket in anger. She was about to pour it on here and was blocked by Wu Song...
"You are so stingy, I'll settle the score with you when I come back!"
She screamed in anger.
"I understand your intentions. You will wait for me. I will come back alive. If I die on the battlefield, you can find a good family to marry!"
Wang Yue, who was already far from her attack range, waved his arms and shouted in sensational sensational.
Amid the laughter around, the young lady of the Zhang family was stunned for a moment, then woke up, screamed, threw the basket, covered her red face, turned around and ran away. Wu Song took the basket casually.
"The long pavilion and short pavilion are awakened by the spring breeze, causing love for no reason!"
Wang Yue on the donkey cart sighed sadly.
It should be said that when you meet with the golden wind and jade dew, it will be even more appropriate. However, this is still too much for an unmarried girl. Even if you are joking, the audience around you know that he was teasing others. The market in the Song Dynasty was not so conservative, but it would be easy to get too much.
"Your face is simply shameless!"
Liu Qi sighed.
"The long pavilion and short pavilion are awakened by the spring breeze, causing separation for no reason.
It is really incredible that such poetic sentences can be said from Brother Wang. If there is a literary and elegant person at this moment, and then a few more sentences will be a good poem."
Ma Kuo said.
"Why do you think I'm gone?"
Wang Yue said dissatisfiedly.
"You have some underneath?"
Ma Kuo said in shock.
"The long pavilion and short pavilion are awakened by the spring breeze, which makes the love of separation for no reason, and there are several sounds of orioles. The lotus embroidered in the mountains and rivers and mountains are painted on the screen. The dream was clear last night, and regrets were the first to go."
Wang Yue moaned with a pretentious expression on his face.
"Well?"
Ma Kuo was stunned for a moment.
"Ha ha……"
Wang Yue laughed proudly.
But his eyes were staring at a small building not far away. At a window upstairs, a girl was looking at him coldly. Wang Yue showed a bright smile, then held two raw eggs in front of him, and touched them slightly with a strange expression. The latter's face changed, and he raised the corner of his mouth with contempt. Then Wang Yue suddenly kneaded the two eggs in his hand, then poured the broken one into his mouth, and stuck out his tongue and licked the corner of his mouth disgustingly.
The girl sneered and quickly closed the window.
Wang Yue followed Tong Taishi's ceremonial guard and left Kaifeng. They met with Shengjie Army outside the city and arrived at Chenqiao Post under the escort of these 5,000 elite infantry cavalry, but did not stay overnight. Except for the infantry temporarily behind, the cavalry guard Tong Taishi continued to move forward. Finally, they took three days from Kaifeng to Huazhou, set off again the next day, and soon arrived at the bank of the Yellow River...
"The world changes!"
Wang Yue sighed in the face of the surging Yellow River.
In front of him was the most spectacular national project of the Song Dynasty.
Three Mountains Floating Bridge.
The vast Yellow River was artificially blocked the old river channel and dug new river channel to the south of the Amway Army, that is, to the south of the Dali Mountain, and the river water that originally circled to the northeast was divided into two streams, turning into Dali Mountain and directly facing northward. Then, with Dali Mountain as the middle, the two modern dug hills in the northeast, Jushan and Wenshan as the left and right bridgeheads, built two floating bridges from Dali Mountain to connect the two mountains respectively, and finally formed two sections of bridges with Dali Mountain as the fortress and similar to Heyang floating bridge.
This will complete the connection between the two banks of the Yellow River.
The two bridges belong to Junxian and Huazhou respectively. The one that belongs to Junxian is called Tiancheng Bridge and the one that belongs to Huazhou is called Shenggong Bridge.
Then the Yellow River water re-converges downstream and enters the natural waterway.
However……
"How come this bridge is broken!"
Wang Yue said.
Well, the Sanshan Pong Bridge was washed away by floods last year, and it is still under reconstruction this year. There are busy craftsmen everywhere on both sides of the Yellow River and the Dali Mountain in the middle.
"You don't need to worry about this bridge. The Water Supervisor is not afraid that it will break once a year. If it breaks, it will be repaired. The court is not without money. It is pointed at the bridge to support it. Our ship is right in front of us!"
Ma Kuo said with a smile.
“That’s true.
Let's go to Hebei, kill the enemy, and a good man will wash the battlefield with great blood!"
Wang Yue said.
Chapter completed!
