Three Kingdoms - Chapter 2800 Cheshi walks back and forth on the Tianshan Mountains, Jinzi River on the Jinzi City

  Gao Shun set off.

  In the tug-of-war between the Han Dynasty and the Xiongnu, Cheshi was actually like a grass on the wall, and he would take refuge in whichever side was stronger until he gradually perished.

  The sorrows of small countries are generally the same.

   It's just that the front and rear of the car division are separated by the remaining veins of the Tianshan Mountains. The south of the Tianshan Mountains is the former country, and the north of the Tianshan Mountains is the rear. The channel connected in the middle is called another place.

  In other lands there are roads, mountains, rivers, valleys, gates, and passes.

  『Jinzi Mountain, Laohe, Shangxiadian Valley, Shizimen, Qiongda Sakaguchi... Finally, Wutu Valley...』

   Gao Shun looked at the map.

   This road is not easy to walk, perhaps it is because of such a difficult road, so that the rear of the driver has always felt that he is safe, and the Han army will not come.

  Gao Shun came, dragging his illness, and his injury has not healed yet.

  Gao Shun had already dispatched sentry scouts to check around, and with the information from the original guide, he also confirmed that Che Shiren was indeed stationed in the area of ​​Jinzi Mountain and River Valley.

It is said that there is gold in Jinzishanhe, and there are some people who pan for gold sand in the valley, but because the output is not very large, there are not many people going there. As a result, a small city, or town, was formed.

Gao Shun sent people to surrender before, but I don’t know if Che Shiren himself was bold, or Che Shiren thought Han people were timid, or some other reason, anyway, Che Shiren here in Jinzi River Valley drove Gao Shun away messenger.

   Then there is nothing more to say.

   It's just that the weather...

   Gao Shun looked up at the still gloomy sky, frowning.

  It's a pity that the general guard did not listen to the persuasion, otherwise, when summer comes again, the city gate, no matter how strong it is, will not be able to withstand gunpowder blasting.

  『Report! No abnormalities were found ahead! 』The scout team came to report.

  Gao Shun put away the map, then looked up.

   At this time, the soldiers who crossed the river first have already reached the surrounding high places, and then raised the green flag representing safety. According to the Code of the Hussars, scouts must be dispatched to detect and explore places where there are dangers, obstacles, rivers, valleys, dense forests, etc., and then red and green flags are used to indicate whether it is safe before the army can follow up.

  In the past, such things were only understood by the generals. Then those veterans who have survived hundreds of battles in the army can be passed on. But now that the exercise code is in hand, even if you follow the regulations in the exercise code step by step, you can more or less reach the level of 50%.

   Detection like the current one, the situation where a cannon fires in the flat ground and then surrounded by people, basically will not happen.

  Gao Shun took a glance and saw that there were flags representing safety on the far and near high points on the traffic route, so he nodded, "Send the order to go down and start crossing the river." 』

Immediately, the guards around Gao Shun unfurled the flags, pointing the flags towards the front of the army formation, and then raised the signal flags representing the direction. At the same time, there was the sound of drums, which represented a new order to let the surrounding Attention the officers.

  The military academy on the front line raised the flag to respond, and then began to issue orders. Immediately, a short whistle sounded, and then they crossed the river in sequence. The first to cross the river are the sword and shield hands, and then the second part is the archers. When the soldiers of these two parts start to expand outwards and establish a front, the follow-up soldiers and horses will follow up one after another.

  Gao Shun only brought two thousand people.

   One thousand Han soldiers and one thousand vassal soldiers.

He didn't ask for more soldiers and horses. On the one hand, Gao Shun felt that although the back of the car division claimed to have tens of thousands of horses, in fact, most of them included the old and the weak and ordinary herdsmen together. Only a few thousand people could really fight. , so two thousand soldiers and horses are enough. On the other hand, it is also because this road is to cross the Tianshan Mountains. Although it is not as rugged and difficult as going from Guanzhong to Sichuan and Shu, it is not easy to drive for a long time. May get in the way.

  After the Chinese army crossed the river, the scouts who continued to move forward at the front received new information.

  After reading it, Gao Shun ordered the messengers to let the leaders of each department gather in the central army.

  The military academy at the front and rear, and Kaza, the leader of the vassal soldiers, all came.

The vassal soldier Kaza, of course, his name is not only two syllables, but a total of more than a dozen syllables, because it is too long, so no one remembers it at all, maybe even his own relatives may not be able to call it all, So no matter who it is, call him the simplest first two syllables, Kaza. Kaza said that his father's generation used to be the royal family of Shache, and was later destroyed by the people of Shule...

   Well, anyway, the situation in the Western Regions is very chaotic. Perhaps for thousands of years, in the Western Regions, only the land is eternal, and all kingdoms, large and small, are passers-by.

  Gao Shun unfolded the map, and several people came to the front of the map.

Gao Shun pointed and said: "We are here now... After crossing this river, we will be Jinzi Mountain City. There are Che Division soldiers stationed in the city. This point must be taken down, otherwise even if we advance, the flanks will be threatened. . 』

  Fanfeng Military Academy said: "Did they find us?" Is the city defense strong? Is it feasible to rush to attack the city? 』

  『There are scouts who came into contact with the driver...』 The leader of the scout team said, 『They should have found us coming. 』

  『Even if you don’t find it, it’s not easy to raid and break through the city. ”Gao Shun said, “This city is built on the middle of the mountain. It would be best to lure them out. So...Kaza, you feign defeat to lure the enemy into battle, can you do it? 』

  Kaza thought for a while, "Yes, General, should we start now?" 』

  Gao Shun looked at the sky and said, "It's getting late. Set up camp today and fight tomorrow." 』

  The military academy and others responded with their hands together, and a military marquis of the Chinese army asked: "Please, general, set up the camp of the Chinese army." 』

  Gao Shun raised his head and looked ahead. There was a relatively flat area, and the distance from the river and the mountain forest was relatively appropriate. He stretched out his finger and said, "This is the position of the central army. Divide into four camps and set up camps according to the flags." 』

  The leaders of the front and rear barracks and the vassal soldiers saluted one after another, and then returned to their headquarters.

Afterwards, part of Gao Shun's middle army moved forward slowly, and arrived at the slightly flatter area set by Gao Shun. Then, under the protection of Gao Shun's personal soldiers, they first set up the general flag representing the command of the Chinese army, and then went to Expanding in four directions, the location of the four camps was determined.

  Because it is a temporary field cavalry camp, there is no need to set up a solid wall like an infantry camp, but the necessary refusal of horses is still necessary.

  As the ministries spread out in four directions, the voices of the non-commissioned officers of the military academy also sounded one after another.

The soldiers took out a lot of javelins about three feet from the accompanying luggage, and then tied the three together to form a simple horse-repelling frame, which was used to tie them on the ground, and then cut down trees from the nearby woods, and placed the crossbars on On the shelf, it's done.

   This kind of refusal is simple and convenient, but the problem is also convenient. In order to make Juma not so convenient, barbed wire will be added around Juma. The caltrops are usually five, connected in series with ropes, and then thrown on the side of the horse. It is also easier to collect when it is laid out at night and left the next day.

  This simple way of setting up a camp is a field cavalry camp, which can be advanced or retreated. Resisting horses is mainly to prevent the enemy from rushing, but if there is any defensive power, it is really not much.

   Flags with patterns in black and blue were raised in each camp, and the soldiers who were about to go to the water source gathered under the flags of black and blue. After checking with the captain, he received the number plate for fetching water and went to fetch water from the river not far away.

  Other people use the felled wood to smoke and roast the ground to drive away insects. In this way, you can get a drier and safer ground for resting at night.

  The group is a bonfire and a pot. After the water is brought back, they start to use dry wood to make a fire and cook the dried meat. Cut the bacon into small cubes and cook in water. After the water boils, pour in the powdered dry food. Finally, add some wild vegetables dug from the surrounding area. Stir a few times with a large spoon, and then serve with two hard noodles per person. Dry steamed buns, either roasted over fire or soaked in hot soup, are everyone's favorite.

   All things are done in an orderly manner without any special explanation. This is the background of a veteran...

   However, there are also some dissonant notes.

  During these processes, the soldiers went back and forth. Although most of the movements were engraved in the muscle memory, due to the lack of effective training for a long time, some soldiers seemed to be panting and tired for such simple labor.

   This made Gao Shun quite worried.

   You know, how long is this?

  Lu Bu was defeated back then, and he didn't have many soldiers in his hands. At least half of the soldiers Fei Qian added to Lu Bu were veterans from Bingzhou and Liangzhou that Fei Qian recruited back then. These veterans killed Xianbei and screamed, and when Lu Bu arrived in the early Western Regions, they beat all the states in the Western Regions to be submissive.

   But now...

   It seems that the shelf is still there, but its core strength seems to be empty.

  Gao Shun even became more displeased when he saw that some Han Chinese cavalry looked more tired than the vassal soldiers, "These people really need to train well..."

  Gao Shun stood up and gestured slightly, "Patrolling the camp. 』

  『General, do you want to remove your armor first? ’ Gao Shun’s personal guard asked. He was worried that Gao Shun's injuries hadn't fully recovered, and he didn't dare to stop Gao Shun from patrolling the battalion with his injuries, but taking off his armor could somewhat reduce the burden on his body.

  Gao Shun waved his hand and walked forward silently.

   His personal guards can only keep up.

  When Gao Shun came back with his personal guards, he immediately blew the order to summon the military academy in the tent of the Chinese Army.

  Military academy non-commissioned officers from various camps came one after another.

  Gao Shun's large tent for the Chinese army is also very simple, but it is larger than ordinary tents. There were a lot more people from the military academies, and they seemed a bit embarrassed and crowded.

  Gao Shun remained silent, his eyes scanning the past one by one.

  『Chen Sanlang, it took you three quarters of an hour to set up the camp! Your team is the slowest in the whole camp! Do you and your team have pig's feet on the lower half of your arms? ! 』

  The smile on Chen Sanlang's face froze for a moment, and then he lowered his head.

  『Ma Changsheng! Your men can drop the crossbar three times when they are riding a horse! three times! Even a monkey can do a better job than your men! 』

  『And you! Lu Silang! Your soldiers carry water and wood, leaning on the side like a **** to pant! Why don't you check if there are any eggs underneath? 』

  『Kaza, what are you laughing at? The excrement ditch dug in your camp can be filled with just urinating. You think that your men are all rats, so it doesn’t deserve to be so deep, right? ! 』

  All heads drooped.

  Gao Shun looked around, "You are temporarily assigned to my subordinates...I don't care what happened before, the military rules are the military rules here!" Exercises are exercises! If you feel uncomfortable and can't stay any longer, pack up and get out now, it's not far from Daduhu, it's only a day's journey away! Is there anyone who wants to get out? stand out! Get this opportunity now! 』

Gao Shun scolded very vulgarly, but that's what the army actually did. In addition, Gao Shun was in charge of training soldiers in Lu Bu's army. , even if they were scolded by Gao Shun as pigs, dogs, and monkeys, everyone shrank their heads and kept silent.

  After all, Gao Shun scolded them for what they didn't do well. If you really turned your face away and left, where could you go? Gao Shun said that the camp was not standardized, and then ran back, so why not be beaten to death by Lu Bu?

  Gao Shun waited for a while, but no one stood up, so he nodded, "In that case...remember your choice now...Chen Sanlang! 』

  Chen Sanlang trembled, and immediately stood up, "The little one is here! 』

  Gao Shun drew out a command flag and threw it to Chen Sanlang, "In the middle of the night tonight, your team is in ambush!" Five miles out of the camp, twenty people on each side! 』

  Voltage value is to set up a secret whistle, set up an ambush, and detect movement. Like the current simple cavalry camps without camp walls, in fact, more often than not, they use offense instead of defense. Once there is movement in the outside world, it will move sequentially, and it can turn from stillness in a blink of an eye...

  Of course, this was the time when Gao Shun was in command. If a general doesn’t know how to command, he might be touched on the chrysanthemum and don’t know what happened.

  『Lu Silang, you stay on duty for the rest of the night! 』

  『Ma Changsheng! Your team sent 20 people far away, and you will not accept them at night! Five people on each side! 』

  『Kaza, send a hundred people at night, divided into two teams, to the Chinese Army and me to inspect the camps together! 』

  Everyone stepped forward to take the command flag.

  Gao Shun said in a deep voice: "Tonight's password is "Jinhe Eliminates Rebellion"!" Fifty people in each camp stay at night wearing armor and holding bows and crossbows. Anyone outside the camp without a token or with a different password will not be allowed to enter! Those who don't listen and resist, shoot them! After the drums and horns at night, you are not allowed to make noise and wander around. Anyone who speaks or behaves strangely and disturbs the barracks will be whipped for the lightest, and beheaded for the severest! Everything else is carried out in accordance with the regulations, so I don't need to talk nonsense! Tomorrow, I will start cooking at 3:30, and leave at Chen. Immediately after getting back, change what should be changed, and then deploy defenses as ordered! Any other questions? 』

   Everyone looked at each other, but didn't say anything.

  『A certain brought you to battle, not only to bring back victory! I will take you around! Sweat more in peacetime, bleed less in wartime! Hussars teach, even forget it! ”Gao Shun shouted, “Today is a warning, if you commit the crime again tomorrow, you will be dealt with according to the law!” Do you understand? ! 』

  Everyone responded with a bang.

  In such a short period of time, the momentum of the crowd seemed to be different...

  In Jinzihe City, in the sheds near the city wall, the stench is suffocating.

  Some Cheshi people were cooking food outside the hut, talking and laughing loudly, as if they didn't take the approaching war seriously.

  The leader of the car driver wore a shining armor, and then led a few guards proudly to patrol.

  For the leader of the car master and his party, these car masters all expressed their respect. After all, not everyone can wear a suit of armor these days. This kind of armor is enough to buy dozens of acres of land, and it can also bring three or four thatched cottages. Even those who don't know the leader of the car master naturally know such a suit of armor.

  In the sheds on both sides, women’s screams can be heard occasionally, and then there will be men lining up outside the sheds, laughing and looking around outside the sheds...

  Jinzihe, there are a lot of people looking for gold, there is always some demand, and of course there is a market if there is demand,

People who come to Jinzihe to pan for gold are basically the proletarians of Cheshi, or greedy people who are eager to get rich. For these people, there is no law at all, and naturally they don't take war seriously .

   If there is going to be a war, they will run away.

   But before the war burned their eyebrows, even the king of heaven, Lao Tzu, could not stop them from panning for gold in the river!

  The gold in the Jinzi River is not gold sand, but is combined in gravel-like rocks, so these people made a lot of stone mills to break these rocks that are not very strong, and then use running water to pan for gold...

  The history of gold mining has been going on for a long time, and no one knows exactly when it started.

Anyway, most of Cheshiren's gold ornaments are panned out from this river, but it may be easier to obtain gold in the past. As the exposed mines are gradually emptied, the amount of gold in Jinzi River is like Just like after making an 888 set meal in the bathing city, it was empty and lonely.

Because of the gold mining itself, various problems are prone to occur, such as killing people to seize gold or something, so in Jinzihe City, there are also many standing soldiers, all of which are under the management of the chief of the car division. These people act as this area. The stable leverage of the stock market makes it impossible to completely fall into needless greed.

  Most Cheshi people are Semu people. These Tocharians are the original Indo-European race, a branch of the Caucasian race. They are bigger than the Yellow race, that is, the Han people. It is said that there is no completely pure race, and it is a very mixed state.

Because the connection between the people behind Cheshi and the previous Xiongnu is relatively deep, coupled with the fact that there are important roads in the Tianshan Mountains, and at the same time, the management of the Western Regions at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty made many people in Cheshi, especially the people behind Cheshi People look down on the surrendering faction in the front of the car division, and there are even rhetoric that the Han people in the front of the car division are cowards.

   Among the Cheshi people, there is primitive worship. They think they are the **** of fire, or the representative of the sun god. Then those Cheshi people who surrendered to the Han people are naturally scum, dark things...

   Coincidentally, the leader of the car master in Jinzihe City is such a believer. He hated those who surrendered, and of course he hated the Han Chinese. Therefore, when Gao Shun sent people to persuade them to surrender, he ordered the expulsion of the envoys without hesitation, and ambitiously stated that he could completely defeat the Han people. Faith can sometimes bring inexplicable bonuses, as if until now, he still believes that he has the blessing of Vulcan...
