Zhao Han'er breathed a sigh of relief when the hoe was nailed deep into the earth cliff, and the iron tips of the deerskin boots under his feet also fit into the cracks in the soil, pulling his body upwards with one hand and one foot alternately."
Steady."
He remembered that when he was young, he burned his Xiongnu father's tent from Beishan and fled south, climbed over the Great Wall, fled to Posui Sui, and was taken in by the old Suichang surnamed Zhao.One of the most common things to do is to repair the Great Wall, at the beginning, the way the Han people built the wall in Zhao Han'er seemed to be extremely fresh, although the Xiongnu also occasionally piled up earth to build the wall, but never like the Han people, in the version of the building to add reeds, wheat straw and other things, and then with a pestle little by little tamping.The outer wall of the barrier city is exquisite, and the raw soil is even steamed, mixed with rice milk, until it is as hard as a stone when it dries, and the hoe will only shake the hands numb.It's not like now, such as chopping melons and vegetables, and digging into them with a little effort.This is the difference between a real rammed earth wall and a soft earth cliff.The Cheshi people found Jiaohe, a unique island in the middle of the river, with the natural island soil platform as the wall, so that it can not be lost for a hundred years.But today, after all, they have to pay the price for their ingenuity.But what made Zhao Han'er cry and laugh, the reason why Ren Hong chose him as the leader of the death squad turned out to be "You even climbed over the Great Wall when you were young, not to mention this little river?"
”Can this be the same?
The low place of the Great Wall in Hexi is not more than a zhang, and the horses are not guarded against people, but the earth cliff of this Jiaohe is fifteen or sixteen zhang high!
Fortunately, the Jiaohe River is also very large, with a circumference of five Han miles, and the buildings are concentrated in the east and south.Now that Xin Wuxian has taken four or five thousand soldiers, he has launched a huge feint attack at the east gate, and almost all Ding Zhuang in the city has rushed to help, and the rest of the people can't stare at every point at all.It seems to be solid, but in fact, it can be flawed everywhere.Ren Hong selected 300 elite people from Jinchengqu and Hexiqu, led by Zhao Han'er and Han Dangdang, and went to the bottom of Jiaohe in two batches, taking the north and west of the remote and few people as the breakthrough point.I want to rely on dozens of warriors who are good at climbing mountains and mountains to climb first with crane-beak hoes and iron pointed boots, and then release ropes for subsequent armorers to climb.Although the Marquis of Xi'an was in Jiuquan, Dunhuang, he expected the enemy to prepare for this battle with the climbing tools that he had started to prepare, but if he wanted to climb up, even Zhao Han'er, who was the most agile, would have to take at least half an hour.He had to cling to the cliff so that the charioteers who were keeping vigil in the distance could hear the sound of the pickaxe striking against the earthen wall.Fortunately, the battle situation at the east gate seems to be very fierce, doesn't it mean that it is a feint?
I always felt that Xin Wuxian was completely attacking, and the Che Shi people in Jiaohe City were also very nervous, shouting and shouting everywhere, covering up the rustling on the earthen wall.Under the wall, the crossbowmen and archers were ready to cover at any time, and Ren Hong did not give them liver and carrots in Jiuquan, Dunhuang, hoping that there would be an army that was not blindfolded at night.On the earth cliff, people who dared to die followed behind Zhao Han'er, climbing like geckos under the cover of night.This time, Ren Hong picked people very chic, and even demanded that it was best to climb over the wall of the neighbor's house, steal chickens and touch dogs.Of course, those good families in Tianshui and Longxi are not suitable, but the four counties of Jincheng and Hexi are opposite, and they can be sent and relocated from afar, how can there be any innocent people?
Either he committed a crime, or he was like Ren Hong, who was affected by his ancestors.But he was not lucky, he was able to be looked at by the traverser, everyone was born with no education, and he did not work less when he was a teenager, but he didn't expect to be able to regain his old business today.Someone even asked for help: "I have never stolen a chicken or touched a dog, but I have stolen the wife next door over the wall, and I have done it ten times a month.""
Such a person was also pulled into the death by Ren Hong.It's funny, but he held his breath, they Hexi Qu followed Zhao Qu and didn't fight or grab, but it was really a turn, they were the township party of Xi'an Hou, and they were more descendant than Jincheng Qu!
But the silent climb was difficult, not to mention only practicing for one day on an earthen platform more than ten miles away.There were still people who made mistakes, and when Zhao Han'er was about to reach the top, the iron tips on the boots of the person next to him were broken, and his feet were empty, leaving only one hand dragging the iron pickaxe, and the whole person was hanging ten feet high.This is the Wuwei County ranger who climbed over the wall and stole the neighbor's wife, Zhao Han'er remembers, he seems to be surnamed Wang, and his single name is an old man?
Wang Lao, this person, hummed when he suffered some skin injuries on weekdays, not to mention that now he will break his leg when he lets go and falls.Zhao Han'er was afraid that he would cry out in a panic and make everyone fall short, but Wang Lao couldn't help it, took out the dagger on his waist and stuck it on the earthen wall, moving it up little by little."
It's a good boy when it's critical.Zhao Han'er exhaled, raised his head, and the top of the cliff of the river was almost there.At this moment, there was the sound of people trotting on it, talking to people while walking, and Zhao Han'er couldn't understand the words of the driver, only knew that something was wrong.Then there was a clanging sound, a weapon fell to the ground, and the man hurriedly walked to the edge of the cliff, but it was a car master with crooked skin, untying his belt with both hands, the man understood, this was obviously a hurry to relieve himself, and the work he took out was just aimed at Zhao Han'er's face!"
Mother and maid!"
Zhao Han'er scolded silently, to hide from the hot golden soup or not?
At this time, when the chariot master lowered his head, he found that there were many enemies hanging on the cliff, and he was stunned.Zhao Han'er didn't care so much, and before the urine came out, he pulled out the dagger on his waist and threw it up, hitting him in the throat accurately, and then when he covered his neck and wailed hoarsely, he climbed up with three times and five divided by two, resulting in his life."
It's exposed."
Zhao Han'er's heartbeat was about to stop, and when he raised his head, he saw that there was no one on the left and right, and he could only hear the shouts of the Han soldiers at the east gate of Jiaohe.What about the companion of this chariot master?
Didn't you wait for him to leave first?
And perhaps too confident in the height of the river, the driver actually built a low wall only far away from the cliff, which is no more than one person high, which is equivalent to nothing.For those who climb up, the unsinkable crossing of the river is as if it is undefended.Zhao Han'er was overjoyed, his hands moved faster than his brain, and the thick hemp rope on his shoulders was immediately removed, and together with Wang Lao, who climbed up later, he tied it to the earthen wall not far away, and threw it down.Then he sat down on the ground, Zhao Han'er was tired, and when he raised his head and gasped for breath, he found that the moon had just come out of the dark clouds, casting a warm moonlight on the Jiaohe River in the war, and falling on Zhao Han'er's face, as if to give him a moment of peace before the killing.While Zhao Han'er sat on the spot and gasped, one after another dared to die climbed up along the rope.Ten, twenty, thirty, fifty, and only then did two more patrolling drivers discover them and give a loud warning.Ding Da in Kejiaohe is mostly at the east gate, and he may not be able to hear it from a few miles away."
It's too late."
Zhao Han'er gasped for breath and picked up the bow knife, because he heard from a long distance that Han dared to be the climbing place of the daring man of Jinchengqu, and the roar of the guy also sounded: "The second and third sons, since they are all exposed, let them know what it means to be a Han and a five!"
”In the west of Jiaohe City, Zhao Han'er's response to him sounded, as if he was saying to a code: "Han Feilong, call your mother!"
”Ren Hong from the Cheshi captured outside the city, asked about the regional distribution in Jiaohe City in this year, it is really similar to the ruins of later generations, the westernmost wasteland is the tomb group, the west area is the handicraft workshop and residential houses, and there is a military camp on the east side to facilitate the defense of the east gate.At this moment, the Jiaohe River has been completely chaotic, the main force of the Han army attacked the east gate, the ferocity has never been seen before, so that the old people who have experienced the siege of Jiaohe three times are terrified, this is not a feint, absolutely not!
Therefore, the prince Wugui, who supervised the battle at the east gate, didn't even know that there was a fire in the backyard.Because even the road is dug out by force, although there is no outer wall in the whole city, the inside is twisted and turned, like a large fortress fortified layer by layer, and the pavement is like being in a deep ditch, and it is impossible to see other places.Zhao Han'er didn't pay attention to it, anyway, these raw earth walls were thick enough, so they simply took Han Dangdang along the city avenue and killed them all the way to the east gate, and when they stirred up the chaos of the river, they let the sharp-eyed Wang Lao climb the wall to find the way.Then he led his subordinates, holding shields and blades, or directly using Fangcai's pickaxe as a weapon, and rushed towards the tallest and conspicuous building in the city.It was the palace of the Che Master, and even if the attack inside and outside failed, he could arrest the Che Shi King and his concubines and children as hostages.There was still some resistance along the way, except for the Cheshi who kept coming to send them, but were quickly beaten by the three hundred warriors of Hexi Qu, the most tricky was the Xiongnu who stayed in the city.They crouched on the wall and shot arrows at the daredevils, and many fell to the ground.But in Zhao Han'er's eyes, those people were just live targets, at this time the moon was bright, and there was fire in the city, he kept avoiding the bow and killing three people in a row.When he was about to shoot the fourth man, the man was smashed in the face by a large whizzing rock and fell on his back.But it was Gan Yanshou who did it, and he had a low hit rate with his bow and arrow at night, and he began to pick up stones in a hurry.Gan Yanshou is a person from Tianshui Qu, this time because he volunteered, saying that he had climbed the ten-zhang high loess plateau with his bare hands when he was in Beidi County, and was allowed by Ren Hong to participate in the night attack.Zhao Han'er saw it: "The strength is good, the head is good, and you often use stones to hit birds on weekdays?"
Gan Yanshou smiled: "Don't dare, it's only used to hunt deer and wild boars."
Zhao Han'er was speechless, the Huns didn't shoot their bows on the wall now, but brandished their knives and rushed over, but they immediately worked hard, which was the opponent of the Han army who was born in a light man?
Not long after, relying on Gan Yanshou's brute force, they pushed open the gate of the Cheshi Palace.Said to be the palace, in fact, there are two big houses, break open the palace gate to the courtyard, enter the courtyard is the palace, there is no longer resistance along the way, men, women and children, everyone is in a hurry, the cry is shocking, after being caught, the language is not understood, they are anxious, Zhao Han'er is also anxious."
Translator, what about translators?"
The main purpose of the Daredevil's trip was to capture the King of Cheshi, and he brought a translator, where would this go?
Wang Lao limped over and said, "It seems that he died from an arrow halfway." ”Zhao Han'er had a big head, so he couldn't do it, so he could only ask Gan Yanshou to take the palace and arrest everyone he saw, but there was still no one like the Cheshi King.When Wang Lao caught a middle-aged man with a head tied and a white silk robe, he actually spoke Chinese."
The military marquis spares my life, I am a Qin person, no, a Han person, a Han person!"
Zhao Han'er was surprised: "Why did the Han people come to the driver?""
My name is Suyu."
This person bowed down and said: "The ancestor was the craftsman who was taken captive from the New Qin to the Xiongnu at the end of the Qin Dynasty, and thirty years ago, he followed the Huns to the Cheshi, and stayed to dig dozens of wells for the Cheshi King, so he became a nobleman." ”He stretched out his hand to Zhao Han'er to touch it, and sure enough, it was full of calluses, not a noble person who was born to enjoy happiness: "The villain often advises the king of the car master and the big man to be kind, but he is bewitched by the second prince and doesn't listen."
Zhao Han'er didn't care so much, he pulled his shirt and asked, "Where is the king of the driver?"
Su Yu pointed to the well in the courtyard and said, "In the well!"
”Zhao Han'er was stunned: "In the well?
Martyrdom?
But when he was cautious and stretched out his head to the mouth of the well, he saw that in the center of the well wall, the somewhat bloated driver Wang was struggling to pull the well rope to draw water, and his feet were struggling to maintain his balance with the bucket.After hearing the movement, the Cheshi King raised his head, saw Zhao Han'er's round face in the moonlight, and showed him an embarrassed but polite smile.PS: Last year, I went to the old city of Jiaohe, and I was thinking about how to attack 2333 while watching.
