Chapter 635 Beyond the Chessboard
The two sides were in a stalemate for several more days, and the officers and soldiers finally dug the tunnel under the Ziwei Star Fort after going through untold hardships.The officers and soldiers were about to open the tunnel, rushed in, and broke through this sad place in one fell swoop.

Who would have thought that before the officers and soldiers began to dig, there was only a "rustling" sound, and then the soil in front of him rolled back for a while, and the tunnel passage that still needed to be dug was instantly opened.

The officers and soldiers were overjoyed when they saw it, and rushed up to fight with their swords and shields in hand.Unexpectedly, a cylindrical pottery pipe was exposed.Immediately, billowing smoke and pungent smell poured over continuously, making everyone who was about to rush up coughing with choking noses.

Everyone was taken aback, where did the smoke come from underground?Some people wanted to go forward to fight, so they groped for the pottery pipes to go forward, but they only felt pain in their hands, it turned out that the place was blocked by the door knife cart.

Everyone secretly thought that it was not good, and hurriedly rolled and crawled to escape.But this long tunnel, how can escape so quickly?
Everyone just ran for more than ten steps, but they felt that they couldn't breathe well, and their legs and feet went limp, and they collapsed on the ground.Then the lungs seemed to be squeezed desperately by invisible things, and everyone opened and closed their mouths helplessly like fish out of the water, as if they wanted to eat something, but they couldn't eat anything.Not long after, a whole line of elite soldiers died again.

It turned out that Zhang Sanbai followed the plan and ordered the soldiers to find out where the officers and soldiers were tunneling.So he ordered the soldiers to bury the pre-prepared pottery pipes in the direction where the officers and soldiers came from the tunnel, and then built a stove at the end of the pottery pipes, and prepared several leather bellows.

When the "Di Ting" heard that the tunnels of the officers and soldiers were approaching, they asked three or five soldiers to push down the gap between the tunnels on both sides with a long shovel in their hands.Then, he blocked the passageway with the prepared plug door knife cart, and let the soldiers who burned the stove desperately agitate the bellows while lighting the fire.

After the stove was ignited, all the firewood used was wet, and a large amount of smoke could be produced.In order to prevent the enemy from jumping over the wall in a hurry, some spicy things such as pepper and dogwood were even added on purpose.

The officers and soldiers were caught off guard, and except for a few near the exit of the tunnel, the others were indeed smothered to death in the tunnel.

When Hong Chengchou, governor of the five provinces, heard the news, he only felt that his eyes were darkened, and he almost suffocated to death.

Since ancient times, due to the limitation of weapons, it has been difficult to siege cities in field battles.However, no matter how difficult it is, it is not difficult to become like this.In these two tunnel accidents alone, the officers and soldiers lost three to four hundred people, almost equivalent to a medium-scale defeat.

Hong Chengchou suppressed the discomfort and asked the guards to drink some cold water.He took a handful and threw it on his face, freezing his anxious face.Hong Chengchou finally realized helplessly: this Luoyang city does not seem to be so easy to fight!

The common Hongyi cannons smashed down the city walls, dug holes to collapse the city walls or broke into the city, these methods are not easy to use.How to do?
"The method of attacking the city is a last resort. Repair the sculls, build the equipment, and build it in three months; distance the wall, and it will be three months later. If you can't bear the anger, you will have ants attached to it, kill one third of the soldiers, and the city will not be pulled out. Those who are here are the disasters of this attack!"

Hong Chengchou subconsciously recited "Sun Tzu's Art of War" while thinking about the solution.After pondering for a while, Hong Chengchou raised his eyebrows, and ordered: "The governor of Yunyang, Lu Xiangsheng, is ordered to go north from Nanyang Mansion to Ruzhou tomorrow, and prepare to attack Luoyang City with me!"

That's right, after thinking about it, Hong Chengchou finally thought of Lu Xiangsheng, governor of Yunyang.Hong Chengchou is different from other generals. He is a typical Confucian general who studied the art of war and history books hard, which is often called the "academic school".This kind of person is not only experienced in using troops, but also good at strategy, and likes to use power to overwhelm others.

On the Luoyang chessboard prepared by Zhang Shun, it is difficult for Hong Chengchou to make great progress.Then he can only look beyond the chessboard and introduce variables.And Lu Xiangsheng, governor of Yunyang, is a variable!
Lu Xiangsheng and Zhang Shun, who are good at wielding big swords, have also fought against him.Although this man's method of using troops is not as good as Hong Chengchou, governor of the five provinces, he can be regarded as a famous general.

Of course, Hong Chengchou was not allowed to dispatch this person on purpose just because of this.The more important reason is that apart from his own bravery, this person has always been kind to others and is relatively easy to talk to.

If Hong Chengchou transfers orders to others, he may push back three times and block four times.If it can be said that he can help him, it is naturally Lu Xiangsheng.

What's more, due to the particularity of Jingxiang, there are two posts of governor of Yunyang and governor of Huguang.Even if he transferred Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Yunyang, Tang Hui, the governor of Huguang, would still be able to guard the land of Huguang if there was a change, so that there would be no danger of total collapse.

When Lu Xiangsheng, governor of Yunyang, received Hong Chengchou's order, he was practicing sword riding on horseback.The white horse frost knife, galloping back and forth, Lu Xiangsheng practiced the tiger and the tiger.

This war horse was given by Chongzhen, and it was named: Qianlixue.Lu Xiangsheng couldn't put it down, and wrote a special poem "A Thousand Miles of Snow" to praise it.

Poetry:

Looking from head to tail, the waist peak is majestic, and the wind is galloping, and the jade is reflected brightly.

Practicing soaring, the vision is empty, and the white clouds are like holes in the cave;
Qingyu Yu rides the wolf smoke Jing, and the long ride should be the first!
This horse is a good horse, the knife is a good knife, and the man is a good man!When Lu Xiangsheng heard the call from the guards, he lost his posture, jumped off the horse after a half-circle, and asked, "What's the matter?"

The personal guard hurriedly handed the warrant to Lu Xiangsheng. After practicing for a long time, Lu Xiangsheng's face remained unchanged, and he took the warrant and looked at it. He couldn't help but sighed and said: "The people are in trouble, and bandits are rampant. As soon as it arrives, the 'Shun Thief' will definitely be destroyed by him, and now it seems that we need to go through it again!"

"Junmen, we don't even have all the trousers, shoes and socks for this winter, and most of the soldiers are from the south, so I'm afraid they won't be able to stand the cold air in the north!" Hearing this, the left and right couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

Lu Xiangsheng has a good temper, and he couldn't help but answer with shame when he heard the words: "It's all my fault. I can't let everyone eat and clothe themselves and make contributions. It's just that the people of Henan Prefecture have been ruined by bandits for a long time, and they are really looking forward to it." , to wait for Master Wang. Please forgive me a lot, and when the imperial court’s military salary arrives, I will definitely pay it in time.”

The soldiers looked at me and I looked at you, and couldn't help but shook their heads and smiled wryly: "The military sect doesn't have to blame itself. We are willing to join the army because of the affection of the military sect. If the imperial court changes the order from day to night, who would believe it? "

"We are all begging from the governor of Huguang from the military gate for food and food. How can we not know? If it were someone else, not to mention driving us, even if there is less money, there will be trouble. Now that the military gate is speaking, How can we not obey? Everyone is willing to follow the army and do our best to destroy this kind of thing!"
