The imperial brother kneels and begs me to marry my daughter-in-law

After walking for a day, the large army only advanced a hundred miles.This is already the speed of rushing without much rest.Lin Xiu and the cavalry were better off with horses, and they were not so tired.But there are only 3 cavalry, and there are 17 infantry. After walking for a day, they always have to rest.

"National teacher, let's repair here, and continue on our way when the first light of the sky shines. What do you think?"

"General Chen has rich experience, you can decide these things." Lin Xiu knew that she was not good at everything, and she would not point fingers at things that she was not good at.

"Okay, let's rectify here." Chen Yunjian ordered the soldiers to go down to rest and rectify in the field, and then continue on the road at dawn, and arranged for the soldiers to take turns to be on duty.

The outdoors are naturally not as comfortable as at home.Lin Xiu wasn't too pretentious to take the wind and sleep in the open, but she just missed Xiao Shu'an when she was free.After simply eating something, Lin Xiu leaned against a tree to rest, while Ru Feng and Xie Chen were sitting not far away, and the two of them held the "Sun Tzu's Art of War" and read it with relish.

Lin Xiu touched her chest, took out the letter that Xiao Shu'an had given her during the day, and carefully opened it, lest the envelope be torn.

The envelope was thin and nothing was written on the cover.There is only a piece of letter paper inside, and there are not many words.Lin Xiu unfolded it lightly, and saw the words on the paper: "Weeping willows in front of the court, take care, and hope you return safely."

Lin Xiu counted stroke by stroke, adding punctuation marks, a total of 91 strokes.What Xiao Shu'an wrote for her were all hollow characters, even the punctuation marks were hollow, she really had to scribble a stroke every day so that it was easy to remember the day.

Lin Xiu took out a small blackened stick from the bonfire, extinguished it, and when it was completely cool, he lightly drew the first stroke on the letter paper.

"Yo, where's the family book?" Chen Yunjian sat down quietly, but kept a proper distance from Lin Xiu, and he still remembered what Xiao Shuan said.Lin Xiu finished painting, carefully folded the letter paper, put it in the envelope, and put it back in her bosom for safekeeping: "Why, are you jealous?"

"Don't dare." Chen Yunjian smiled and shook her head, "Your wife is too powerful, I dare not be jealous."

After hearing this, Lin Xiu smiled and said nothing, with a proud expression on her face. Her daughter-in-law is good at others, but she is gentle with herself.

"Does the national teacher have any ideas in mind for this battle?" The soldiers are on the way, but Chen Yunjian hasn't really figured out how to fight this battle. Shunshui and Lingzhou are not easy to fight.Otherwise, Zhao State occupied several cities of Zhou State at the beginning, and it would not have brought back all the others, and these two cities have never returned.After the fall, they never entered the city gate of Shunshui again.

"Is the general familiar with the terrain of the two places?"

"I'm familiar with the map. I haven't investigated the real terrain." These two places used to be the cities of Zhou State. Zhou Kingdom naturally has historical maps handed down for reference, but what is the real terrain? Chen Yunjian Haven't been there yet.Needless to say, that place has been governed by Zhao Guo for decades, and they don't know how the city is defended.

Lin Xiu frowned, this is not good news.The leading general didn't have a good understanding of the terrain, which is very passive.But in the face of a big enemy, you can't say dejected words. She comforted: "It's okay. Just play it by ear. The general doesn't understand. If Xi Yuan comes, he doesn't understand better than the general. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. The key is him. To be able to defend it, we only need to open a gap, and it will be like a broken bamboo.”

"Hmm." Even though she knew that Lin Xiu was comforting herself, Chen Yunjian felt relieved a lot.What Lin Xiu said is also correct, it is impossible to know yourself and the enemy in every battle.Adapting to changing circumstances is also the ability that a general should have. What the situation is like can only be judged at that time.It's no use thinking too much now.

"Then the national division should rest early. I will send troops to guard here. It is very safe. Nothing will happen."

"Okay, thank you General."

--

After marching for half a month, Chen Yunjian and Lin Xiu finally led the team to the destination.They stationed their troops 60 miles away from the river, and then sent a small team to inspect the terrain and the enemy's situation.

"One good news, one bad news." Chen Yunjian came to Lin Xiu's tent and said.

"What's the bad news?" Lin Xiu chose to hear the bad news first, so as to be prepared.

"The terrain of Shunshui is more dangerous than we thought. The city gate of Shunshui is in the west, surrounded by water in the north, cliffs in the east, and a city gate in the south, but it is connected to Zhao Chu, and it is impossible to attack from there. It is easy to be double-teamed by Zhao Guoyuan.

The geographical location along the river is very important. No matter entering Zhao or leaving Zhao, this is the only place to pass through. That's why Zhao Guo has been sticking to this place for so many years.Losing this place, they would have to make a big detour if they wanted to march west.

But in the same way, if we can't attack smoothly, we don't have to think about Lingzhou. "

"What about the good news?" Lin Xiu was not worried about the current situation.The boat is naturally straight when it reaches the bridgehead, and there are always more solutions than problems.It is good to formulate a solution after grasping the overall situation.

"The good news is that the State of Zhao did send Xi Yuan here this time. I heard that we have been out of the city for a few days, and we won't be able to reach Shun Shui for a while. If we can capture Shun Shui within seven days, when Xi Yuan arrives, We can only guard Lingzhou."

Lin Xiu laughed when she heard the news. This is not only good news, it is simply great news.Zhao Guochaotang quarreled for so long before deciding to let Xi Yuan, a good-for-nothing, fight.Not to mention the delay of the fighter, this person still doesn't understand the terrain of these two places at all.Not to mention that he is a general who is not capable, but he is a general who is capable. He is not acclimatized here, he doesn't understand the terrain here, and he can't integrate with the local generals.

"In this case, we need to make a quick decision. If we win Shun Shui before Xi Yuan brings reinforcements, we will win most of this battle."

"That's right. However, it's not easy. With the terrain along the water, the current city guard general Yuan Qiao only needs to stick to the city gate and resolutely refuse to fight. Just like this, we have nothing to do." Chen Yunjian said to The current situation is not optimistic, Yuan Qiao is Qian Jian's subordinate.Although this person has no great talent, he is stable and down-to-earth.If it is said that he may not be able to attack the city, but defending the city, this person is very depressed.

Lin Xiu looked at the map and didn't speak.It is indeed difficult to conquer from the front, but there is always a way. "General, do you want to call all the generals and commanders together for a meeting, let's discuss together and see if there is any way to break through."

"Alright, I'll call it."

--

Rufeng and Xie Chen were also called to discuss matters together.Although the other generals were dissatisfied, because the two women were brought by the national teacher by name, the national teacher is now a military teacher with higher power than General Chen.Everyone can only dare not speak out.

Among all the generals, only Li Ziye and Qi Jin trusted Lin Xiu.Li Ziye is Chen Yunjian's capable subordinate. He has heard the general tell a lot about the country's master's tricks, and he is already half of Lin Xiu's little fan.As for Qi Jin, he was appointed general by Lixin Lin Xiu by the government back then, so it goes without saying that he has feelings for Lin Xiu.

It's a pity that after a meeting, no one could come up with any brilliant strategies.Apart from the old tricks in the past, they didn't have any good tricks in the face of such difficult terrain. Lin Xiu had no choice but to let them go back to camp, and she stayed alone to continue studying the map.

Everyone is gone, but Rufeng hasn't left yet.She hesitated and said, "Military division, there is something that I think I should tell you."

As soon as Lin Xiu raised her head, she realized that Rufeng was still there: "What's the matter, tell me."

"A few years ago, the princess and I came to Shunshui."

"Have you been here? How is it? Do you have any unique insights to tell me?" Lin Xiu heard that Rufeng mentioned Xiao Shu'an, but she just made a joke. She didn't think about what Rufeng could say, but Rufeng gave her a surprise.

"Well. At that time, the princess and I were inquiring about news in the city of Zhao, but we were discovered and were chased by soldiers all the way. We had nowhere to escape and we hid in Shunshui. But those soldiers guarded the city gate, and the princess and I couldn't get out. In desperation, we went around to the north of Shunshui, which is the Shunshui River. At that time, we thought that since we could not escape, we would not be caught alive even if we died, and we would suffer all kinds of humiliation.

But the northern cliffs are not impossible to climb.Relying on a tree vine, the princess and I climbed down from the cliff intact, then swam across the Shunshui River, finally went ashore, and ran all the way back to Ganzhou from Chongnan. "

"You mean, people can climb the cliff in the north!" Lin Xiu was very excited when she heard the news. If God closes a door for you, he will open a window for you.Doesn't this mean that after closing the city gate, I can still climb the wall!

"Yes, it's just that the cliff is very steep, and ordinary people should not be able to climb it. If the princess and I were not forced to do so, we would never have thought of acting like this." The reason why Rufeng didn't say this in front of everyone just now The thing is, I think it may not be useful, because people who have been trained or have some skills can climb up.There are not many such people in the army, so it may not be feasible.But I also feel that Lin Xiu should be told that the National Teacher has a genius, in case she has a way.

"Ru Feng! If Shun Shui is breached, you will be responsible!" Lin Xiu excitedly patted Ru Feng on the shoulder, and then ran to find Chen Yunjian. She had a plan in mind, and she wanted to tell Chen Yun immediately Jane goes to line up!

--

On the second day, Chen Yunjian and Lin Xiu led the team to move on.It didn't stop until it reached ten miles from Shunshui City Gate.The mighty 20 army, the general guarding the city, Yuan Qiao, saw it at a glance.But he remained calm, and just stood on the city gate and told the soldiers to be on guard at all times, and no one was allowed to open the city gate without his order.

There are not many defenders in the city, only 20, and [-] fights [-]. It is difficult to win no matter how you fight.But what Yuan Qiao has to do is not to win, what he has to do is to wait until Xi Yuan arrives with reinforcements, they can open the city gate and go out to fight.Before Xi Yuan came, he knew very well that all he could do was stick to it!

On Zhou Jun's side, according to the arrangement, Li Ziye single-handedly went to the gate of Shunshui City to shout and curse.

"I'm Li Ziye! Those who are on the city gate, come down and fight one-on-one! I will fight to the death with your grandfather!"

None of them had any kind. Zhao Guo's soldiers stood on the city wall and looked at Li Ziye coldly.Of course, there will always be a few bloody soldiers who want to go down and fight Li Ziye to the death.But they were all stopped by Yuan Qiao.

Yuan Qiao knew that Chen Yunjian was also here this time.And Lin Xiu was there too.He knew the whole story of the Battle of Dongcheng, and also knew that Lin Xiu's plan was in the hands of Lin Xiu.Lin Xiu's name has been deeply imprinted in his mind.Chen Yunjian and Lin Xiu were both there, so he would not act rashly.He didn't want to be ambushed again like Qian Jian, and Zhao Jun suffered heavy casualties in the end.

What's more, Zhou Guo came to 20 people, and they only had [-].He just wants to open the city gate and fight, but he is not qualified.He stood on the Shunshui city wall like a Mount Tai, motionless, and stared at Zhou Jun without any expression. Li Ziye's provocation did not stir up any waves in his heart.

The Art of War says: If you are invincible, wait for the enemy to take advantage of you.He is now guarding against danger, as long as he is steady, nothing major will happen.

On Zhou Jun's side, there were indeed no tricks.They didn't use trebuchets, they didn't use wall ladders, and they didn't use stones or wooden stakes to hit the city gates along the water.

This day passed so plainly.Li Ziye was like a scolding rascal, he rode a horse and scolded for a day under Shunshui City, and the 23 soldiers on both sides quietly watched him scold and provoke.

When it got dark, Li Ziye got off work on time.Riding back to camp, he drank a few jugs of water. His voice was hoarse from shouting all day, and he was more tired than fighting.

The sky gradually turned dark.It is already April, and the weather is not too cold.It's just that Shun Shui is surrounded by water and mountains on all sides, so it's still a bit chilly at night.The mountain wind howled, Yuan Qiao looked at Zhou Jun's barracks on the city wall, and felt quite satisfied.Just keep guarding like this, and when Xi Yuan's reinforcements arrive, they can kill all these soldiers.

Even if they don't go out to fight, they can be consumed like this. How much food and grass the 20 army needs, Yuan Qiao doesn't believe how much food and grass the Zhou army can prepare in a hurry.Sitting on a strong city and listening to the enemy's self-defeating, this is Yuan Qiao's goal.

But he didn't dare to be careless. Facing 20 soldiers, if he was not careful, his head might be moved.He didn't want to die, and he didn't want his soldiers to die either.Seeing that it was already night, he once again told the soldiers guarding the city not to be careless and to be vigilant against the enemy!

The soldiers promised that they would not be careless, and they stood up twelve hours, taking turns on duty for twelve hours without a break, and never relaxed a bit.Yuan Qiao was finally satisfied, and returned to the camp tired to sleep.

If we talk about sleeping, we actually cannot sleep well.The 20 troops outside the city were watching covetously. Yuan Qiao even dreamed that the city gate was breached, but people need to rest.In this way, without even taking off his armor, Yuan Qiao finally felt drowsy and fell asleep after repeated anxiety and nightmares.

In the early morning of the next day, before dawn, Yuan Qiao was awakened by the sound of fighting outside the house!His heart skipped a beat, he sat up abruptly, almost lost his footing when he got out of bed, and fell a big somersault!He ran outside to have a look!

Shunshui City is full of flames!Killing sound again and again!Zhou Guo's army appeared out of nowhere, and killed Zhao Guo's soldiers who were unprepared and even asleep.Yuan Qiao could only hear screams in his ears, and he was stunned.

Not only Yuan Qiao was dumbfounded, but even the soldiers on the city gate who stayed up all night without daring to close their eyes were also dumbfounded.They didn't know where the Zhou soldiers came from. The city gate was not broken at all, and no one even came to disturb it!

Zhou Jun killed Zhao Jun with no power to fight back, and many soldiers had their lives terminated before they realized what happened.This is not a war at all, because too many Zhao soldiers died without resisting.

Yuan Qiao looked at all this in front of him, feeling very angry and anxious.But he is a general, he cannot mess up.Now that Shunshui City has been broken, the only option is to stop the damage in time and flee to Lingzhou with the remaining soldiers.

It can be said that Yuan Qiao escaped in embarrassment. This was the most embarrassing and unbelievable battle he fought in his life.As he ran, he thought, how on earth did the Zhou army break through the natural moat, enter Shunshui, and turn an offensive and defensive battle into a street fight?

The Zhou army who was fighting did not immediately pursue and kill Yuan Qiao.It wasn't until they reached the gate of the city and opened the west gate along the river that Chen Yunjian led his cavalry in pursuit of Yuan Qiao.

It's not that the soldiers in the city are stupid for not chasing and killing Yuan Qiao, but because they don't have horses at all.Yuan Qiao didn't know that when he was sleeping last night, a group of soldiers outside the city secretly put on short clothes and threw their horses in the camp. River, rock climbing with bare hands, they climbed countless mountains and strange rocks, sneaked into Shunshui City before dawn, and killed Zhao soldiers by surprise.

And this group of soldiers is only 5000 people.Thanks to the training of Zhou Guo's special forces.Among the 20 people this time, there are 3 special forces.Among them, [-] people were selected who could swim well. They usually performed well. Under the leadership of Qi Jin and Rufeng, they killed [-] people in the city.

Maybe Yuan Qiao, who was fleeing for his life, didn't know that only 5000 people had sneaked into the city, and his 5000 soldiers could catch turtles in the urn and kill all [-] people.But Yuan Qiao didn't have the perspective of God. He didn't know how many Zhou troops entered the city, nor how they entered the city.

When I woke up and saw my soldiers dying tragically one by one, my instinctive reaction was that the Zhou army had entered the city, and it was instinctive to run away.It wasn't until he fled all the way into Lingzhou with the remaining soldiers, and saw that only Chen Yunjian led tens of thousands of cavalry were chasing him outside the city, did he feel that something was wrong, and he seemed to have been tricked.

Chen Yunjian pursued hard, but still failed to catch up with Yuan Qiao, allowing him to escape into Lingzhou.Only 1 cavalry followed behind him.There are also [-] guards in Lingzhou City, and Yuan Qiao has brought back more than [-], so he dare not enter again.I had no choice but to take people back to join the big army.

As soon as Chen Yunjian left, Yuan Qiao fully reacted!The soldiers who sneaked into Shunshui City were all wearing short jackets, which were different from the soldiers brought by Chen Yunjian!Chen Yunjian came in after those soldiers opened the city gate for him!They weren't even in the city before!After thinking about it, Yuan Qiao probably guessed how Zhou Jun came in from the north.

Although he didn't know the specific details, he understood that there was a steep wall over there, and even if Zhou Jun could get in, he would not be able to get in too much.Zhou Jun came in from the north and wanted to kill all the way to the west of the city to open the city gate. Will Shunshui City be lost?

"Stupid!" Yuan Qiao slapped himself remorsefully, and couldn't help but shed tears when he remembered how his subordinates and he were in a state of embarrassment while fleeing all the way. "Lin Xiu is really treacherous!" At this moment, he wished he could eat Lin Xiu alive!He knew that Chen Yunjian didn't have many people with him, but he was already shocked and didn't dare to chase him anymore.

He didn't know when the Zhou army behind him would catch up. If he met the large army behind him, he would be encircled and suppressed instead of being encircled and suppressed, and Lingzhou would be lost. Then he would really become the eternal sinner of Zhao State.As long as they guard Lingzhou and wait for the reinforcements, they still have hope to regain Shunshui.

However, General Yuan, who was steady and composed yesterday, seemed to have aged ten years after only one day.

Zhao Jun's side is covered with dark clouds, but Zhou Jun's side is full of joy!They never dared to think that they would conquer Shun Shui, which has always been known for its hardships and dangers, in just one day!The soldiers who were not very convinced before now admire Lin Xiu.

And the soldiers who were worried that Rufeng would slow them down also looked at her with admiration.If Rufeng had to lead the way, they didn't want to lead Rufeng at all, but they didn't expect that Rufeng, a family of daughters, was actually braver than these men.When climbing on the steep wall, several boys were brave enough to go on. If they had not done similar training on weekdays, they would not be able to persevere.But Rufeng finished it without saying a word and very easily.They admired such a woman very much.

"National teacher! It's a pity, I didn't catch up. This Yuan Qiao ran fast, and went straight to Lingzhou. I saw him enter Lingzhou, so I didn't dare to chase him anymore." Chen Yunjian looked for him with a happy face as soon as he came back. Lin Xiu reported the situation.Although he failed to catch up with Yuan Qiao, there was no trace of frustration on his expression.

"It doesn't matter, if you escape, you will escape. We will meet again anyway, and you will not be able to escape from General Chen next time." Lin Xiu never insisted on achieving any effect, and the current situation is already very good.

"Hey! It's really annoying! I didn't expect that Shunshui City was captured, and my brothers and I didn't get any credit. The brothers who are all called special forces are done. It's a pity that I worked so hard yesterday in front of the city. All day, our [-] cavalry brothers ran a few times in vain today, and didn't even kill a single Zhao Jun. I, a fifth-rank general, can't be promoted again. I'm still waiting for this battle to be promoted. The fourth rank!" Li Ziye followed Chen Yunjian for a trip today, although he was complaining that he didn't grab the military merits, but his face was really happy, he defeated Zhao Jun and captured Shun Shui, they were still very happy in their hearts .

Chen Yunjian smiled: "I told you not to join the special forces, now you know what special forces are. Five thousand special forces sneaked into the city last night, but they did a great job. I see, Qi Jin is going to be promoted soon, and he will be your superior." gone."

Li Ziye immediately refused, but Qi Jin became an official later than him.He has been a fifth-rank general for three years and has not moved at all. If he can't compare with Qi Jin, he will be ashamed.

"National teacher, please, next time there is a mission. Let me go first! I am very good, no worse than the special forces! I didn't join the special forces at the beginning, so I didn't think it was necessary. I will join the special forces when I go back. How about it?"

"If you want to join, you have to ask General Qi Jin's opinion first. He is in charge of the special forces now. I'm just a military adviser, and I don't care about the personnel arrangement." Lin Xiu pushed four, five, six, just watched the show with a smile.

"Why is it Qi Jin again? I have to serve as a soldier under Qi Jin, can I still join the special forces?" Li Ziye complained bitterly. It's not that he doesn't like Qi Jin, it's just...it's always a little face-saving No more.

"No!" Chen Yunjian ruthlessly cut off his thoughts.

"Don't look at me, I don't care about this." Lin Xiu saw that Li Ziye wanted to come to him to intercede, so she hurried away.She still has to go back and write a letter to her daughter-in-law. She won the first battle, so she has to show it off!

--------------------

The author has something to say:

Lin Xiu: You have won the battle, so hurry up and write to your daughter-in-law for praise!
