Stone Town is a pass fortress on the Tianzhu Mountain Range on the southwestern plateau.

This fortress, three miles in circumference and ten feet high, is made of stone and stuck in the middle of two precipitous high mountains. One is facing the Daragawa Plateau with thin air; the other is facing the flat Ganquan Corridor ... The strategic position is extremely important.

Therefore, if Stone Town is in the hands of Dazhou, the safety of the Silk Road can be guaranteed; if it is in the hands of the Tufan Kingdom, the Tufan army, which is in the top, can be cut off at this time, and Dazhou can be cut off from the Western Regions at any time. The Silk Road will no longer exist.

More than thirty years ago, in order to seize this dangerous pass from Tufan, Dazhou mobilized 300,000 elite troops, stormed for eight months, and paid a heavy price for the casualties of 100,000 people.

In the following decades, the reluctant Tufan Kingdom launched dozens of large and small attacks in order to recapture the Stone City. The two sides carried out many fierce offensive and defensive wars, but the Stone City was firmly in the hands of Da Zhou State.

However, because the supply line is too long and the transportation of grain and grass is difficult, Da Zhouguo ’s garrison in Stone Town has been around 3,000 people and has occupied the geographical position. It is no problem to resist the attack of ten times the enemy.

If the number of enemy forces under siege is more than thirty or forty times, and the time is long, the situation in Stone Town will be in jeopardy.

Yumen Pass is about five hundred miles away from Stone Town, and it requires the reinforcements to arrive within five days to achieve an urgent march. This is a big challenge for the Ganzhou Army, which is dominated by infantry.

Moreover, the stone city is located in a plateau area with an altitude of 4-5 kilometers. The low oxygen content environment will cause a great delay and trouble to the soldier's body load and marching speed ...

Even so, after the military order was issued, it took only one day to complete the assembly of 50,000 Ganzhou troops. The grain and grass were loaded, and all the carriages were put on the carriage. All kinds of arrangements were organized. As a precision war machine, it was no mess. .

After the whole army announced the enemy situation, they learned that they were facing a powerful enemy of more than 100,000 people. The generals and soldiers at all levels did not panic and laughed as usual. Many Confucius powerful people even eagerly tried to cut off their merits. .

Cowardly and timid, they are almost impossible to find, at most they are just dignified and serious ...

The spirit of this army is completely in line with the image of an elite and strong army.

...

The next day, early in the morning.

Yumenguan, the gate of the city.

Team after team of soldiers wearing armor and armed with soldiers and soldiers, holding a banner, walking at a uniform pace, like a long snake, coming out of the city gate, slowly twisting and moving toward the high mountains in the southwest direction. Tens of miles long.

Ten people including Zhou Ming, Li Dazui, Chu Jingling, and seven ethnic soldiers, also riding horses, appeared in the middle of this contingent.

The old general didn't approve of Zhou Ming's enlisting with them. The battlefield was dangerous and the swords and arrows were blind. If they were killed or injured, ordinary people would be fine, but Mr. Zihua was a famous celebrity in the world. In this war, how to explain to the people in the world?

Zhou Ming's way of persuading the old general was very simple. He asked a person to bring a five-stone hard bow, draw an arrow, and then pull the bow string into a full moon shape. After ten consecutive arrows, the arrow hit the target center one hundred steps away. His breathlessness drew applause.

The old general was also shocked and couldn't believe it.

As for the bodyguard Li Dazui, it is just that strange power that allows him to arbitrarily and arbitrarily. He has personal protection, which is more reassuring than sending an elite 100-person guard.

The old general did not oppose Zhou Ming's group.

...

After three consecutive days of rapid march, the army marched nearly three hundred miles and went to the outer edge of Tianzhu Mountain.

The terrain is high and difficult to carry. The higher the upward, the heavier the burden the soldiers bear, the tired look, and the slower the march.

The morale of the army's heart is still high, but it has also dropped significantly. The old general sent many batches of commanders and urged to speed up the march several times, but the effect was not very significant ...

The remaining two hundred mile journey arrived within two days and became an almost impossible task.

The Stone City sent out messengers for help, and came an increasingly fierce military situation: "On the Zanqin's offensive, the Stone City is at risk! The reinforcements will not be lost within two or three days, the city will be lost!"

How to speed up the march has become an urgent matter.

Inside the coach's account.

"Today's plan, we can only divide the army into two, and send a group of elite soldiers to rescue first, so as to slow down the rush of the Stone City!" Said the first officer.

"How many people are better?"

"Five thousand is enough."

"It's not enough! On Zan Nai's famous generals, five thousand elite soldiers, he can't shake his 100,000 troops! Even, he might be involved in his siege ... At least 10,000 elite soldiers are needed to take a risk. "" Said another general.

"Binggui is very fast. If 10,000 elite soldiers are drawn, the speed of the march will not increase much. Not to mention, the remaining 40,000 soldiers and horses are likely to be targeted by the praises and praises and become his goal!"

Another general was worried and said, praising Qin Nai's military gods, this person is bold and alert like a fox, and he is particularly good at circumventing points to help and cut off people's food and grass. A big defeat. To save the Stone City from this person, without careful planning, Zhou Jun, who was not well suited for the activities in the plateau area, will surely be caught by his weakness and cause heavy losses.

There was no controversy in the big account.

"Hugh is going to fight!"

The old general sitting in the position of the coach, took a look at the table in front of him, stood up, and the armored shuttle rang, and he looked to the generals and said: "Select five thousand elite soldiers, I will lead this army personally! ! Follow the soldiers, be sure to arrive in four days! "

"promise!"

No one in the crowd will raise different opinions, and they all greet each other.

That night, the five thousand elite soldiers were selected, light soldiers, only three days of grain and grass. After a short rest, they set off in the stars and wore the moon and walked through the high mountains and valleys. Aggressive General Su Lie, who is vigorous in shape and constantly cheering for the soldiers.

Seeing this scene, the pawns all had red eyes and extremely tired bodies, as if injecting a wave of energy, the pace of movement was more firm and powerful.

A military song suddenly came from the front of the queue:

"The imperial winds of the four seas are covered, the water is clear for thousands of years;

Hearing the song, the soldiers in the back sang along with it, and the song sang together:

"Looking back at Wei Sai is as low as a horse, and gradually see the Beijiang River flowing straight to the east; Tianwei straightly rolls the Yumen Plug, and Wanli Huyu does business songs!"

A piece of "Great Array of Music" created by General Wei Zhao, who was conquered in the Western Regions by General Wei Zhao, thousands of years ago.

This song is also the old Soviet general who led the 500 elite soldiers 50 years ago. When he crossed the Yinshan Mountain and attacked the East Turkic Khan account at night, he sang the song with the 500 soldiers because of the snow and obstacles. "Zhen Le", the snow mountain collapsed, the road appeared, and the glorious record of capturing the Turkic Khan was achieved.

Today the old general sang this song again. Five thousand soldiers naturally understood that this was the old general's encouragement to them. The morale suddenly rose and the speed of marching has accelerated a bit.

In this scene, Zhou Ming, who followed, was deeply moved in his heart, and asked Li Dazui to bring a pen and paper and write a song in the bright moonlight:

"A cup of turbid wine is thousands of miles away, Yan Ranwei has nothing to do with it, Qiang tube is frosted on the ground, people are insomniac, the general is white hair and the husband is crying ..."

Looking at the line on the paper, UU read www.uukanshu.com and thought about it, Zhou Ming shook his head: "No, these pawns, their homes must be very much wanted, but most pawns have regarded this as their own home. , Regard the land of the Western Regions as their own destination ... their hearts are more about the love of the land and the sacred duty of guarding the border ... their hearts are the most simple and sincere patriotic feelings flowing in their hearts Although they are ordinary, they understand their mission and are fearless. "

"Or a" Breakthrough? Night March "is more suitable for them."

So, without a moment, a strong word jumped on the paper:

Drunk in the light of the sword to see the sword, the dream blows back the corner of the camp. Eight hundred miles away, the fifty-string chord turned out, and the battlefield spotted a soldier.

Ma Zuobailong is flying fast and his bow is like a thunderbolt. After the king did everything in the world, he won the name of his predecessor, and the general Bai happened!

...

Two days later, after two days and nights of march, except for a few people who left behind, five thousand elite soldiers finally arrived in the middle of the night, less than five miles away from the Stone City. The stones attacked like rain in a hundred trebuchet attacks.

Fortunately, above the city head, the big banner with the green border and yellow background and the word "Zhou" still stands.

Even though this flag is broken and crumbling.

"Gentlemen, kill!"

In the early hours of the morning, five thousand soldiers, after two hours of rest, before the Lenzinqin army made adjustments, the old general ordered five thousand reinforcements to attack with a thunder and a strong attack. Then three consecutive defense lines hurriedly organized by the Tufan Army were cut through, and with the help of the defenders in the Stone City, five thousand reinforcements, like a source of new life, were injected into the Stone City.

The morale and cheering of the remaining less than 800 defenders in the city were greatly boosted.

Enemies outside the city screamed and their morale plummeted.
