33. Riding a horse, dragging a cannon

The dream flew away. In the blink of an eye, the sun rose in the east, and a hot sun rose from the sky outside the window.

Infinite heat is driving away the cold of winter and letting the god of winter go away.

In mid-air, there is a scene of hot summer floating, the steaming heat wave, and the shaped snowy mountains. However, it is just an illusion. In fact, it is the white gas exhaled by thousands of horses.

The murderous atmosphere of the sword.

Then, the sound of iron drums sounded in the Song army camp behind the woods. Hundreds of birds flew, the earth trembled, and the sound of drums was cheerful and powerful. Even the laziest soldiers would be excited to hear it, arouse the enthusiasm for killing the enemy, and quickly ran outside to gather.

When the Song army gathered and numbered the number of people, Mu Yunhan jumped on a stone, stood in front of the crowd and began to speak: "Brothers, the rebellious Guo Maoshan is in Shunyang County in front of him. He led a group of mob to refuse to surrender. What should we do?"

The two centurion quickly took the lead and shouted, "Go into the city, kill Guo Mio Mountain, kill Guo Mio Mountain, and our army will win!"

A thousand fully armed Song soldiers raised their arms and shouted loudly, "If you kill Guo Mishan, our army will win, and our army will win!"

Then, Mu Yunhan told everyone about the victory news he had just received. General Cao Xi had led his army into Guozhou, and it would not be long before he would go south into Dengzhou, attack with General Zhao Ze's army from north to south, and completely eradicate Guo Maushan.

As soon as everyone heard that victory was coming, their morale was greatly boosted. They once again raised their arms and shouted that our army would win and killed Guo Mishan.

Before the departure, Mu Yunhan picked up 20 loyal guards to stay in the camp to take care of the horses and vehicles, while the rest of them lined up in a ten-way column in front of him, advancing in the direction of the woods, stepping on the snow and fallen leaves, looking at the sun.

From Dengzhou Prefecture to the boundary of Shunyang County, it takes a rough and long mountain road to get to the Shunyang boundary more or less.

There is a flat river by the Xishui River, and the surrounding five miles are all plains. It is difficult to attack. If you attack hard, there are too many casualties, and you can only attract the other party out of the city to fight in step.

Long before the Shunyang War, Zhao Ze made a battle plan, code name: Operation Shunyang.

Of course, it was operated by Zhao Ze, and then he handed over this 'historical responsibility' to his most trusted young subordinates, from Jiupin to deputy lieutenant Mu Yunhan. Therefore, Mu Yunhan prepared for battle in the shortest time and created an eye-catching scam.

He swaggered away from Dengzhou, beat gongs and drums along the way, and walked along the north of the Chaoshui River. It was not until it was close to ten miles south of Shunyang City. He cut down trees and built the city, and arranged several traps around it with snow, branches and stones.

Three days later, he officially sent troops to attack Shunyang.

The blue earth.

In the pure sky, the sun flashes, and the dazzling white light shines on the vast land of the Song Dynasty. From the northern border to the southern sea, thousands of miles of rivers and mountains wake up in this refreshing blue dawn.

Another day has begun.

At the foot of the distant mountain, the shadow of a small city shrouded in fog. That's the place that Zhao Ze missed and tried to seize in Shunyang.

Seven miles east of Shunyang City, Luoyanpo.

It was snowy. Zhao Ze's main army was ambushed here at this time, and behind it was the frozen Chaoshui River.

Luoyanpo is actually a steep hill, which is very similar to a super sea bowl upside down in the snow. Of course, it can also be said to be somewhat similar to a woman's **. Such a hill is often seen in the valley of Dengzhou, but this one is taller and steeper. Its top is relatively flat and easy to hide, but one side of the hillside is particularly steep. As a hidden and resting place, there are no obvious advantages here, but its height and terrain are particularly suitable for defense, and it is almost impossible to make a surprise attack on it.

So far, the 'Shunyang Action' has entered the substantive implementation stage.

The specific situation is as follows:

At noon on December 3, Mu Yunhan led his army to Shunyang in the west and left Dengzhou with great fanfare. Han Jiang and Han Zongyan in Zhizhou and officials of the whole city saw off the army. The scene was very spectacular and attracted praise from passers-by. It was said that the imperial army was powerful and magnificent, and the thief army would be defeated.

Most of the people who like to watch the bustle go to Baiyun Tavern. Because the terrain is high, it is near the West City. It is just right to overlook the surrounding scenery. There are a sea of people on both sides of the road, and the Song army is marching in the middle. The armor is bright, the military appearance is strict and magnificent.

Wei Caiyuan was also present, and now he is talking to the people in the pub.

"See, that's the cannon, which is thicker than a woman's thigh," Wei Caiyuan sat at the window like a storyteller and commented.

"It's really amazing. It's better than a whip!" A prince stood aside with his hands behind his hand and joked.

"Of course, you will know it by looking at the thickness. The whip is pumped on the body to say one more blood mark. If it is hit by this cannon, ** will collapse!" Wei Caiyuan replied proudly.

"Ah, it's really so powerful. ** Can it collapse even if it's so small?" The people around laughed and talked about it one after another.

"It's too mysterious, I don't believe it"

"Oh, you are ignorant, I can't blame you"

"Who do you say is ignorant and what evidence is there?"

"For example," Wei Caiyuan stretched out his hand and pointed to the goatee. Mr. Cai, nicknamed sweet potato Cai, said, "Mr. Xiao Cai broke a finger with a firecracker last year. Do you know how big the firecrackers are?"

"I don't know?" Everyone shook their heads.

Wei Caiyuan raised a very thin sugar cane: "Did you see it?"

"A sugar cane, is it the murderer who broke Xiao Cai's finger!"

"No, Wei is just an example. In fact, the firecracker is two times thicker than this sugar cane."

"Oh, that's as thick as my **," Xiao Cai Man took a sentence carelessly.

"Go cool on one side" Wei Caiyuan smiled, opened the mystery, and told everyone: "The sky-shaking cannon is dozens of times thicker than this firecracker. It's more than enough to collapse **, not to mention tearing people in half"

Wei Caiyuan's sentence was torn in half, which provoked everyone to talk about it again. There is no need to mention this, let's talk about the first evening of the Shunyang operation.

Zhangcun Town is located on the turbulent water river between Dengzhou City and Shunyang. That night, as soon as it got dark, Zhao Ze's army all went out of the East Gate in the opposite direction and looked at Nanyang County along the official road. On the way, he left the official road and turned to the northwest. Under the rolling hills, With the cover of the night, he rushed to Zhangcun Town before the dawn and hid there for six days.

On December 6, there are still three days left before Operation Shunyang. Mu Yunhan's former army has reached the boundary of Shunyang and began to prepare for the battle.
