Volume 2 The Rise of the Zhang Family 280 The decisive battle begins

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The red sun in late autumn has just risen from the horizon, illuminating the entire world, heralding the beginning of a new day.

    It was such a late autumn morning. At this time, the Tang garrison stationed at Xiaoguan and guarding Xiaoguan had already started an extremely busy day on the Xiaoguan city wall early.

    It is already quite cool in Xiaoguan in late autumn. The change in temperature between day and night at this time has already heralded the arrival of cold winter.

    ??The gusts of autumn wind, accompanied by the early morning water vapor, blowing on people's faces, making people feel the chill, but this has no impact on the Xiaoguan defenders who are currently busy.

    "Good morning, Captain Zhang!"

    "Good morning, Captain Zhang!"

    "Good morning, Captain Zhang!"

    After guessing that Jieli Khan had arrived outside Xiaoguan, yesterday evening, although Jieli Khan led the army to Xiaoguan, it was already a dusty journey and extremely tired, so the Turks did not continue the offensive, leaving Zhang Yang  They had a good sleep.

    But the others did not relax because the Turkic army did not attack the city one after another last night, and had a good sleep. On the contrary, because Jieli Khan of the Eastern Turks came with reinforcements, they were able to sleep all night long.  Then worry about it.

    ¡°I didn¡¯t sleep well at all. Take Zhang Yang for example. He tossed and turned in bed last night before falling asleep after midnight. So far, the real sleep time last night was only less than two hours.

    Zhang Yang, who was not suffering from severe insomnia, got up early to wash up after the rooster crows.  After breakfast, I quickly ran to the city wall.

    "Good morning, captains, I didn't expect that everyone would come here so early today. It seems that everyone didn't sleep well last night!"

    Walking from the Xiaoguan city wall to the Xiaoguan tower, Zhang Yang found Qin Liyan, Ran Hongzhi, Shangguan Xingping, Si Junbi, Sang Minglang, Gao Yongsi, Ju Ruicong, Yue Zheng Junxiong, and Zhuge Hao as soon as he entered the tower.  Qiong, Yuwen Ruihao, You Ruibo, Jia Xiujin, Zheng Ping, Sikong Hongmiao, Pei Chengen and others had already arrived at the tower early to study the next defense.

    This discovery greatly shocked Zhang Yang.  It seemed that he was not the only one who couldn't sleep, but the many high-ranking people in the Xiaoguan garrison present had not slept well last night because of the arrival of Jieli Khan.

    No, after discovering this problem, Zhang Yang suddenly felt a lot more balanced in his heart. Instead of being so nervous in the air alone, it would be better to have someone to sleep with and not feel full. What a wonderful thing!

    Especially after hearing what Zhang Yang said, all the generals present raised their heads from their own research and looked at Zhang Yang who had just spoken.  However, their raising their heads immediately made Zhang Yang even more happy.

    It turns out that Qin Liyan, Ran Hongzhi, Shangguan Xingping, Si Junbi, Sang Minglang, Gao Yongsi, Ju Ruicong, Lezheng Junxiong, Zhuge Haoqiong, Yuwen Ruihao, You Ruibo, Jiao Xiujin, Zheng Ping, Sikong Hongmiao, Pei Chengen and others  At this time, there were a pair of big panda eyes on his head. It was obvious that, as he said, he had not slept well and had eye circles.

    But for dark circles, Qin Liyan, Ran Hongzhi, Shangguan Xingping, Si Junbi, Sang Minglang, Gao Yongsi, Ju Ruicong, Yue Zhengjunxiong, Zhuge Haoqiong, Yuwen Ruihao, You Ruibo, Jia Xiujin, Zheng Ping, Sikong Hong  Miao, Pei Chengen and others obviously did not pay much attention to the warriors of this era to be precise.  I don¡¯t pay much attention to dark circles under my eyes.

    The allusion of the chicken dancing has been circulated in this era for many years. It can be seen in the middle of the night when the rooster crows.

    It is said that Zu Ti of the Jin Dynasty was a man with an open mind and lofty ambitions.  But when he was a child, he was a naughty child who didn't like reading.  As he entered his youth, he realized his lack of knowledge.  I deeply felt that I could not serve the country if I did not study, so I started reading hard.  He read extensively and studied history carefully, from which he learned a wealth of knowledge and made great progress in his knowledge.

    He had been in and out of Luoyang, the capital, several times. People who had come into contact with him said that Zu Ti was a talented person who could assist the emperor in governing the country.  When Zu Ti was 24 years old, someone recommended him to become an official, but he refused and continued to study hard.

    Later, Zu Ti and his childhood friend Liu Kun Yizhi served as the chief registrar of Sizhou.  He and Liu Kun had a deep relationship. Not only did they often lie in the same bed and sleep under the same quilt, they also shared the same lofty ideals: to make contributions, revive the Jin Dynasty, and become the pillars of the country.

    Once, Zu Ti heard the crowing of a rooster in his sleep in the middle of the night. He kicked Liu Kun awake and said to him, "Did you hear the rooster crow?" Liu Kun said, "It is unlucky to hear a rooster crow in the middle of the night.  "

    Zu Ti said: "I don't think so. How about we get up and practice swordplay when we hear the rooster crow?" Liu Kunxin said:??Agree.  So they got up after the rooster crows every day to practice their swords. The light of the swords danced and the sound of the swords clanged.  Spring goes to winter, cold comes and heat comes, never stopping.  Hard work paid off, and after long-term hard study and training, they finally became all-round talents capable of writing good articles and leading troops to win battles.  Zu Ti was named General Zhenxi, realizing his desire to serve the country; Liu Kun became Zhonglang General in the Northern Expedition, taking charge of the military affairs of the three states of Bing, Hebei and You, and gave full play to his literary and military talents.

    It is common in ancient books that during the march of the army, it is often said that food is cooked at the third watch and the troops are set out at the fifth watch. This clearly shows that the ancient people had already developed the good habit of going to bed early and getting up early.  .

    "Captain Zhang, I didn't expect you to come so early today. Everyone thought it would take a while for you to come!"

    For those who are not teased by Zhang Yang, Qin Liyan, Ran Hongzhi, Shangguan Xingping, Si Junbi, Sang Minglang, Gao Yongsi, Ju Ruicong, Lezheng Junxiong, Zhuge Haoqiong, Yuwen Ruihao, You Ruibo, Jia Xiujin, Zheng Ping, Sikong  Hong Miao, Pei Chengen and others were naturally unwilling to be outdone. Although they didn't care much about the level of teasing, appropriate counterattacks were still indispensable.

    The best thing for Zhang Yang now is to get up early. As a proven art school student in the 21st century, Zhang Yang has already experienced the nightlife of going to bed late and getting up late under the red light.

    Xiang is extremely unaccustomed to going to bed early and getting up early in this era, even though he has lived in this era for more than a year.  He also spent more than half a year practicing martial arts under the supervision of Qin Shubao and Sun Simiao, but he would still get up late whenever he had the opportunity.

    This is not in this military camp.  As one of the giants, he waited for the Turkic army to move south in order to delay the attack.  So Zhang Yang has returned to sleeping in in the past month or so.

    Not to mention fun, generally he will not appear until the end of the Chen hour, such as Xia Qin Liyan, Ran Hongzhi, Shangguan Xingping, Si Junbi, Sang Minglang, Gao Yongsi, Ju Ruicong, Yue Zheng Junxiong, Zhuge Haoqiong, Yuwen Ruihao, etc.  In front of You Ruibo, Jia Xiujin, Zheng Ping, Sikong Hongmiao, Pei Chengen and others, it is quite strange that such a talented person appears today.

    "Same, same. We are all the same. The Turkic Jieli Khan and Tuli Khan came with more than 100,000 reinforcements. I believe everyone present is the same as me. They didn't sleep well last night. Isn't this right?  When I can¡¯t sleep early in the morning, I come here to hang out!¡±

    Hearing what Zhang Yang said, Qin Liyan, Ran Hongzhi, Shangguan Xingping, Si Junbi, Sang Minglang, Gao Yongsi, Ju Ruicong, Yue Zheng Junxiong, Zhuge Haoqiong, Yu Wen Ruihao, You Ruibo, Zha Xiujin, Zheng Ping were present.  , Sikong Hongmiao, Pei Chengen and others naturally thought of the place where they rested at the station last night.  Lying in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

    Sure enough, no matter who it was, the tremendous pressure brought by the arrival of the Turkic Jieli Khan was clearly felt.

    "Captain Zhang, the Turkic Jieli Khan has led reinforcements. This is just your own guess. Until now, we have not received confirmation, so how do you know that we are not preparing for the sudden attack of the Turkic siege troops yesterday?"  Retreat from trouble!¡±

    The dead duck has a tough mouth, and he is talking about the Chinese people who have good face. At this time, Qin Liyan, Ran Hongzhi, Shangguan Xingping, Si Junbi, Sang Minglang, Gao Yongsi, Ju Ruicong, Yue Zhengjunxiong, Zhuge Haoqiong, Yuwen Ruihao, You Ruibo  The reactions of , Zhu Xiujin, Zheng Ping, Sikong Hongmiao, Pei Chengen and others just illustrate this problem again. People live for this face.

    "It's up to you whether you believe it or not. Anyway, this problem will be verified in a while. Okay, let's not talk about this problem now. Let's talk about it first. What did you study here for a long time just now?"

    For Qin Liyan, Ran Hongzhi, Shangguan Xingping, Si Junbi, Sang Minglang, Gao Yongsi, Ju Ruicong, Lezheng Junxiong, Zhuge Haoqiong, Yuwen Ruihao, You Ruibo, Jia Xiujin, Zheng Ping, Sikong Hongmiao, Pei Chengen and others  Although they knew the old name, Zhang Yang had no interest in answering at all, if they really didn't believe what he said that the Turkic Jieli Khan personally led the army.

    Will this group of people be like this now, with two big black eyes on the top of their heads?

    There is no difference whether you do it or not. Anyway, if you do it, it will be in vain. In the end, it can only be a futile cover-up.

    "We haven't come up with many useful things from the discussion. Anyway, we are all sticking to Xiao Pass. We have already discussed what should be discussed in the past few days. We have also thought of all the defensive methods we can think of. What can we do now?  good idea.

    It's not like that. Besides, what do you mean, we have been studying here for a long time, and we are here less than two quarters of an hour before you. In this little time, even if there are issues to be discussed, we can discuss them.  Order something!"

    After hearing what Zhang Yang said, Qin Liyan and Ran Hongzhi were obviously at a loss to say anything. It was not only Gao Yongsi who had to say this.

    ¡°I knew it, okay everyone, if we discuss it here, we won¡¯t be able to come up with any new ideas.

    Since this is the case, it is better to go out for a walk, look at the morning sun, breathe in the fresh air, and exercise to warm up. From today on, we will face an enemy attack that is ten times more powerful than ours. This fierce battle will not be known from the beginning.  It's time to end!  "

    After Zhang Yang heard Gao Yongsi's words, he didn't have any other reaction. He just asked everyone to go out for some air.

    Regarding Zhang Yang's proposal, Qin Liyan, Ran Hongzhi, Shangguan Xingping, Si Junbi, Sang Minglang, Gao Yongsi, Ju Ruicong, Lezheng Junxiong, Zhuge Haoqiong, Yuwen Ruihao, You Ruibo, Jiao Xiujin, Zheng Ping, Sikong Hong  Miao, Pei Chengen and others were quite happy with it. After all, no matter how much we discussed here, there was no better way. It was better to go out to get some fresh air and rest.

    "Well, it's time to go out. If we don't go out to see the rising sun, we don't know when the next time we will see it is!" said Zha Xiujin.

    "Yes, I came here early in the morning to discuss city defense. My mind is still blank. Are there any new ideas coming out there? Rather than doing useless work here, it is better to go out and breathe the morning air.  , let¡¯s move on!¡± You Ruibo said.

    Sang Minglang then agreed to Zhang Yang¡¯s proposal and said: ¡°The day¡¯s plan lies in the morning, I think we still!¡±

    "Okay, everyone is like that. Then let's all go out for a walk, breathe the fresh morning air, and look at the rising sun.

    Anyway, I am just like you now. Although I am anxious and want to come up with a few better ways to resist the Turkic army's siege, my brain is obviously numb now and I have no new ideas. I might as well go out for a walk.  visit.  Blow the cool breeze of this late autumn morning to cool down your head and calm down. Maybe some new ideas will come to you!  "

    After seeing that everyone agreed with Zhang Yang¡¯s idea of ??going out for a walk, Qin Liyan also agreed.

    Zhang Yang saw that his proposal was approved.  Without saying anything more to everyone, he took the lead and walked out of the city tower.

    Now, after Zhang Yang took the lead and wanted to leave, Qin Liyan, Ran Hongzhi, Shangguan Xingping, Si Junbi, Sang Minglang, Gao Yongsi, Ju Ruicong, Yue Zhengjunxiong, Zhuge Haoqiong, Yuwen Ruihao, You Ruibo, and Zha Xiu  Jin, Zheng Ping, Sikong Hongmiao, Pei Chengen and others no longer stayed in the tower, and followed Zhang Yang to the wall outside the tower.

    This is the Xiaoguan defense seminar that was originally held in the morning.  After driving for less than half an hour, it ended without any problem.

    By now it has become a group of senior generals of the Xiaoguan garrison. They walked collectively on the Xiaoguan city wall early in the morning.

    But this walk started to change. Zhang Yang, Qin Liyan, Ran Hongzhi, Shangguan Xingping, Si Junbi, Sang Minglang, Gao Yongsi, Ju Ruicong, Yue Zheng Junxiong, Zhuge Haoqiong, Yuwen Ruihao  , You Ruibo, Zhu Xiujin, Zheng Ping, Sikong Hongmiao, Pei Chengen and others had not walked on the city wall for a while, and what they saw as walking turned into what soldiers saw as inspection work.

    This is a bit unexpected for proposers like Zhang Yang. It was obviously a simple early morning walk, but now it has turned into inspection work and condolences to the soldiers and civilians who are busy on the city wall!

    But now that the deal is done, we can only follow the plan. A group of people go on the city wall to see how the soldiers on the city wall are doing in preparation for the upcoming fierce battle with the Turkic army.

    At the same time, we are also concerned about their recent living conditions in Xiaoguan and whether they are satisfied with them, as well as their preparations for battle and their confidence in the upcoming fierce battle with the Turks. What are their opinions and whether they are willing to continue fighting.

    This trip brought Zhang Yang, Qin Liyan, Ran Hongzhi, Shangguan Xingping, Si Junbi, Sang Minglang, Gao Yongsi, Ju Ruicong, Yue Zhengjunxiong, Zhuge Haoqiong, Yuwen Ruihao, You Ruibo closer  , Zhu Xiujin, Zheng Ping, Sikong Hongmiao, Pei Chengen and others are the middle and high-level people of the Xiaoguan garrison and ordinary soldiers, civilians and the lowest level of the Xiaoguan garrison.

    The cohesion of the Tang Dynasty Iron Army stationed in Xiaoguan at this time was greatly strengthened. At the same time, Zhang Yang, Qin Liyan, Ran Hongzhi, Shangguan Xingping, Si Junbi, Sang Minglang, Gao Yongsi, Ju Ruicong, Lezheng Junxiong,  Zhuge Haoqiong, Yuwen Ruihao, You Ruibo, Jia Xiujin, Zheng Ping, Sikong Hongmiao, Pei Chengen and others saw what the needs of the bottom soldiers were at this time.

    They also understood their determination to defend Xiao Pass and not let the Turks go south to Guanzhong. At the same time, they also understood the belief that they must win in their hearts at this time. At the same time, they also gained a lot of things that they had always ignored in their daily lives.?, ignoring the problem.

    Let them see more clearly that the Xiaoguan City Wall now holds the hope of victory in a decisive battle with the 200,000 southbound army led by Jieli Khan. People are all emotional. When everyone becomes emotional, they will be more easily moved.  .

    This is not the case on the city wall north of Xiaoguan, facing the Turkic army. A group of people walked away, which not only relaxed their minds, relieved the sullenness that had accumulated in their hearts since yesterday afternoon, but also calmed the soldiers. The same, or even more panic,  Nervous mood.

    In the end, it strengthened their determination to defend Xiao Pass and gave them more and better defense methods.

    The statement that the Three Stooges are the rival of Zhuge Liang has been truly verified through their discussion just now.

    A group of them had been discussing in the city tower for so long, but they didn't come up with any ideas. During the conversation with the busy soldiers and civilians just now, the soldiers and civilians provided them with many good ideas that can be used now.  .

    This leaves Zhang Yang, Qin Liyan, Ran Hongzhi, Shangguan Xingping, Si Junbi, Sang Minglang, Gao Yongsi, Ju Ruicong, Yue Zhengjunxiong, Zhuge Haoqiong, Yuwen Ruihao, You Ruibo, Jiao Xiujin, Zheng Ping, Sikong Hongmiao  , Pei Chengen and others were filled with sighs.

    "You guys have gained a lot from this walk just now. It seems that this proposal is quite timely!" Zhang Yang said proudly.

    "Well, it's good, it's quite good, and it's a fruitful harvest. No wonder people say that masters are among the people. It's really true!"

    Qin Liyan chose to ignore Zhang Yang's complacency, but he also affirmed what Zhang Yang said just now.

    "General Qin, look, look outside the pass, the Turkic Jieli Khan is really here, and many Turks have appeared outside the pass!"

    As soon as they heard this, Zhang Yang and Qin Liyan didn't pay attention to who said it, so they looked outside the pass. Sure enough, they saw countless Turkic warriors standing densely less than two miles away from Xiao Pass, and Jie Li  The Khan's Turkic flag is flying among them!  (To be continued)
