The so-called rolling armor means rolling the armor into a ball and then carrying it on the body and marching quickly.

Of course, in ancient times, even in the early and middle stages of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, soldiers were a very important backbone.

Therefore, there are not many opportunities for soldiers to roll up their armor on the battlefield. Most of the time, the auxiliary soldiers are responsible for carrying the soldiers' rolled armor.

Jiao Jixun looked at the eight hundred warriors following him. He knew that he had to show his true strength. These people would work tirelessly with him and fight without fear of life and death.

Human beings, as the leader of all spirits, can often create miracles once the fierceness in their bones is mobilized.

For example, Su Dingfang made an 800-mile assault in heavy snow, Suvorov crossed the Alps, and the even more powerful Red Army crossed the snowy mountains and grasslands.

The 200-mile rocky road of Wenchuan Road that Jiao Jixun had to walk is certainly not comparable to the above cases, but it is still quite difficult.

If you don't let the warriors under your command know the significance of this battle, they may not be able to complete the two hundred miles if they don't risk it all.

Because these proud soldiers not only had to roll up their armor and walk, but they could only eat half full, and they had to fight a bloody battle before leaving the valley mouth.

It is true that they are warriors, but just because they are warriors, they are treated well and their morale is naturally high. There are some things that must be said clearly.

Jiao Jixun did not speak great truth, because that was the power of Emperor Zhang Shengren.

In the world, he is the only one who can give these warriors a big pie, not only because Zhang Shengren can do what he says, but also because even a compliment from him can make a warrior feel like he is on the ninth heaven, and can even replace the reward of money.

.

But Jiao Jixun couldn't do it, so he stood next to a huge stone.

This was a large stone that was washed away by the river and looked a little pale. Jiao Jixun, carrying dozens of kilograms of cotton armor on his back, jumped on it in one step.

He was about to reach the age where he knew his destiny. He weighed thirty or forty pounds, and his jumping ability was so good that he provoked cheers from the warriors around him.

There is no need for anything else in the army. The first is fairness and the second is skill. As long as these two are in place and you can lead hundreds of soldiers, there won't be a big problem.

"Before setting off, a certain family had already gone to Xin's house and sold 400 acres of paddy fields in Xiangyang Prefecture, and the money they got was no less than 1,000 guan.

With this thousand guan, I am going to take my son and son to Chengdu Mansion to have a good time.

Let’s eat the best Sichuan delicacies, the Fei Sheep Head that Meng Chang’s children love to eat, we want one plate per person.

Yang Taizhen had eaten Shuzhong lychees, and each person wanted a large basket.

Regardless of chickens, ducks, cattle, and sheep, it’s awesome!

Let’s have one of the best prostitutes and maids in Chengdu Prefecture!

Life is short, as long as this battle is over, this old thieves slave is no longer ready to live, so he will enjoy it with his brothers."

Jiao Jixun still said that he was being conservative. The best paddy field in Xiangyang Prefecture was only 40 tons per acre, so he would definitely not be able to win it.

The lychees Yang Taizhen ate in Shuzhong have long been depleted due to climate change.

But the soldiers below love to hear this.

A majestic fat man stabbed a half-cooked fish with a sword. He listened to Jiao Jixun describing the delicacies of Sichuan, and his mouth watered.

There are those who like women, their eyes glow with gold and their lower bodies are ready to move.

"Jiao Laozi, if you keep your word and deceive a certain family, we will come to you with a knife!"

Some people were so excited by Jiao Jixun's description that they wished that the war would be over now and they could go to Chengdu Mansion to relax.

After the number of people around him decreased, the distance between Jiao Jixun and them suddenly became very close, so much so that the warriors around him dared to call him Laozi Jiao, which almost meant Old Man Jiao.

"Fuck you! I keep my word. If you don't want to part with those three or five dollars, you can come to a certain house and cut up that thing on your crotch and give it to you to drink."

Jiao Jixun, who has always presented himself as a Confucian general, has become extremely rude at this moment, but the more he behaves like this, the more he can win the hearts of the people below him.

The crowd burst into laughter again, and then Jiao Jixun pressed his hands down to signal everyone to be quiet.

"Among the countries in the world, Nanping and Southern Chu have returned to the country, and the Southern Tang Dynasty has long been defeated. Qian Yue has always been respectful.

Only Meng Shu and the Lingnan Han Kingdom have not yet surrendered. Among them, Meng Shu is the strongest, so we will deal with him today.

But have you ever thought about it, after defeating Meng and Shu, what other battles in the world are worthy of heroes like us fighting?

No more! If there is, there will be more monks and less rice, and you may not necessarily get on the wheel.

Therefore, this expedition to Shu is the last chance for a good man to make a contribution!

Following the army to attack Wuxiuguan, I don't know when it will be conquered. Once it is conquered, there are tens of thousands of people. If everyone gets a share of the credit, it won't be much.

But for us, as long as our legs and feet are fast enough, we can be the first to rush into the Xingyuan Mansion of Shu, or even rush through the Jiange, and be the first to go to Shuzhong. What a great achievement! Our sons, children, and grandchildren will not be able to eat it for ten lifetimes.

over.

Gentlemen! Do you dare to follow a certain Jiao Jixun and give it a try? Give it a try without risking your life!"

"Dare! Dare! Dare!"

The sound shook everyone, and the atmosphere was completely aroused. Then Jiao Jixun took the lead, shouldering his armor and starting to stride forward.

From him onwards, all officers carry their own armor, bows and arrows.

This is a real rocky road. Although there are few cliffs, the feet are basically covered with scattered rocks washed away by the river. It is normal for your feet and calves to be scratched by the rocks when you climb up and down.

things.

Since each person only brought two kilograms of dry rice and a small amount of suet, the animals suffered a lot along the way.

Small fish and shrimps in the river, wild boars and muntjacs in the mountains, and even birds have all become targets.

Hundreds of people drank fish and shrimp soup with a strong smell and gnawed on half-cooked various animal meats, trying to fill their stomachs as much as possible.

Jiao Jixun ran at the front covered in dust, begging in his heart that it must not rain. If it rained and turned the ground into mud, he would really be unable to march.

Yuanzhou, Wukou Pass.

As Sun Hanshao expected, the Zhou army did not stop at all after breaking through Raofeng Pass. They followed the Han River all the way up, chasing the defeated troops of Wuding Army in Yuanzhou, and came directly to Wukou Pass.

Er Zhujing's face flushed with excitement. Back then, he, Liu Zaisheng, and Zhao Cunyi returned eastward as generals of the three thousand Han'er army that King Li Shengtian of the Jin Kingdom gave to Zhang Gao.

After that, the experiences of the three people were different.

Needless to say, Liu Zaisheng was the general who had been by his side since the beginning of Emperor Shaoming. After arriving in the Central Plains, he had made many military exploits and was now an indispensable commander for everyone.

Zhao Cunyi was a little unlucky. He injured his leg when he entered the Guanzhong battle for the first time. He was able to ride a horse but was always a little lame when walking.

Now, being able to supervise and supervise the army of a government is all the result of the emperor's care.

Er Zhujing, on the other hand, had made many military exploits, but they were not numerous or big enough.

Although he has achieved the positions of governor of Xiangyang Prefecture, supervisor of soldiers and horses, commander of the guard army, and commander-in-chief of Feng'an Town, which is similar to the governor of Shannan East Road.

But he only had one earl title and could not become a top minister.

He has always regarded this as a deep regret, and now, the opportunity has finally come!

As a general who has been fighting for a long time, Er Zhujing was keenly aware of the weaknesses of the entire Shannan West Road Shu army.

They paid too much attention to the defenses from Qishan Road to the west and Baoxie Road to the north, but somewhat neglected the defenses of Jinzhou (Shaanxi Ankang) to the east.

This can be felt from the quality of the Wuding Army soldiers who fought with him, so Er Zhujing keenly seized this opportunity.

Although his status is not high, Feng'an Town is also lagging behind in the Forbidden Army, but because of this, his combination of weak generals and weak soldiers has taken a deep breath to prove to the world that Feng'an Town is not

Belly in the Forbidden Army.

However, soon, reality gave Er Zhujing a blow in the head.

He commanded his soldiers to start a fierce attack before leaving the stronghold, but You Yijun came to report that 3,000 reinforcements had arrived from the direction of Yuanzhou.

Er Zhujing looked bitterly at the panicked Shu army at Wukou Pass that he had beaten. They were still one last breath away from attacking Wukou Pass. If these reinforcements had arrived two hours later, he would have attacked Wukou Pass.

hateful!

"The right guard, with 1,500 men, was left to guard the area, and civilian husbands and Yicong warriors were ordered to leave the stronghold immediately. Marquis Yu from the capital of Zhao was responsible for commanding the naval warships to block the mouth of the river.

The sons of Feng'an Town, go with me to try out the quality of these Shu troops."

After thinking quickly for a while, Er Zhujing made a safe arrangement. He still had to go to the stronghold first. If he could not defeat the three thousand reinforcements quickly, he would be too passive if he did not have a stronghold by then.

Northwest of Wukou Pass, there is a mountain ridge called Paoma Liang, which is the most critical mountain ridge from Yuanzhou to Wukou Pass.

You Yijun of the Shu Wu Ding Army had reached the foot of Paoma Liang Mountain long before the army arrived.

However, before the Shu army, You Yijun, had all turned their heads to observe the terrain, dozens of arrows were suddenly fired from halfway up the mountain, and four or five of the Shu army were immediately shot down.

In order to reduce weight, You Yijun usually didn't wear much armor when doing exploration and search, so anyone who was shot immediately screamed loudly.

Of course, those who can serve as Youyi troops are generally elites in the army. After this group of thirty or so Shu soldiers were shot down with four or five people, the rest of the soldiers immediately ran to hide behind rocks or trees.

A few slightly thin Shu soldiers were like macaques, using the thick trunks to cover themselves and quickly climbed up the trees.

Then they roared loudly and kept reporting the location of the Zhou army ambushed in the distance to their colleagues.

General Luo Shi of the Youyi Army in Feng'an Town frowned, showing a vigilant look for the first time.

Feng'an Town is mostly composed of soldiers from Ningxia Province. General Luo Shi is from the Luo Li tribe in Dangxiang, and the infantry under his command are basically Hengshan Qiang.

Even among the pro-army and forbidden armies of the Zhou Kingdom, which were filled with warriors, the Hengshan Qiang were very famous as mountain infantry.

However, after arriving in Xingyuan Mansion, the mountains here were very different from Hengshan. The trees were taller and the shrubs were denser. Coupled with the humidity and heat, their mobility in the mountains was much reduced.

But the Shu army on the opposite side didn't have so many worries. They were just like a duck in water.
