Above the majestic pass, arrows splashed like rain, and people kept rolling down the arrow tower, and the sound of fighting sounded through the sky for a moment.

Shen Zhezi stood between the walls of the battlements, constantly placing his bow and stringing, aiming at the invading enemies below the pass to shoot arrows. At this time, there is no need to consider the correct head problem at all. Instead, the test is arm strength. Even if he cannot hit the target, he can suppress the opponent's offensive momentum. Both quiver pots were shot empty, and his arms were sour and hard to bear. He had to retreat and take a break in the small building on the city.

This offensive and defensive battle lasted for nearly an hour. From afternoon to dusk, the enemy camps at Daye Pass only scattered gold and retreated. The attackers slowly retreated. The civilians and soldiers from both sides sent out various soldiers to clean up the battlefield, leaving only sporadic shot arrows, aiming to cause some trouble to the enemy and cover their own line at the same time.

As early as a few days ago, the Liyang Army's ** unit advanced eastward, crossed Langya, Qu'a, and Jurong one after another. Finally, the troops were stationed outside Daye Pass. The offensive and defensive battles of similar intensity had been going on for several days, and they were stalemate.

Shen Zhezi arrived at Daye Pass the day before yesterday. In addition to bringing reinforcements from his own army, he also transported the military supplies collected recently from Jingkou.

After the battle stopped, the soldiers quickly returned to the team, and summarized the damage from their respective commanders and soldiers, and finally submitted it to the supervisor Guo Song. Then Guo Song arranged for the patrol and duty affairs of each song, and then went to report to Shen Zhezi.

Shen Zhezi had already left the building at this time and was walking on the top of the city. He had not experienced many military affairs, and even if he had them, he would just stop trying it. This was the first time he had experienced such a serious offensive and defensive tug-of-war like this. During the battle, blood splattered and bloody scenes were filled with broken arms and throats, but there was not much real passion.

From commanders to soldiers fighting in specific bloody battles, although there are many exciting roars, when implemented in specific, there is a chilling calmness and orderliness. Especially when you are in it, watching the soldiers shooting and killing the enemy almost mechanically, it makes people feel that this is not a tragic battle, but a normal work like harvesting seedlings. The indifference to human life is so cold that it is outrageous.

Shen Zhezi knew very well that similar experiences in the future would never be missing for him. He could not appreciate war from an aesthetic perspective, but it was inevitable. Even if there was discomfort in his heart, he had to hold back and get used to it.

Not far away in front of him, a soldier of his age was swept through his left chest with a runny arrow. In addition to pain, his childish and scattered face was still at a loss. His chest was rising and falling sharply, and short inhalations mixed with blood foam were constantly spraying out from the corners of his mouth, but his hands and feet had twisted into extremely unnatural arcs.

When he saw Shen Zhezi coming, he subconsciously wanted to turn over and salute. Shen Zhezi rushed forward and pressed his shoulder: "Don't move, don't move, it's okay!"

The young soldier made a vague sound of jock in his throat, making people unable to tell what he wanted to say, but more blood was leaking out from the corners of his mouth.

"Where is the doctor?"

Shen Zhezi signaled his followers to hold the boy down, stood up and paused his feet and roared.

Two doctors covered in blood on the squirt shirt rushed over quickly, and roughly tore open the front of the boy's clothes, leaving only the corner of the cloth around the arrow cluster. After a little diagnosis, the two seemed to have made a decision. One of them took out the scissors and cut the arrow feathers that were exposed before and after, and the other poured out some mud-like ointment in the bamboo tube, applied it evenly on the palms of both hands, and then grinned at the boy: "Boy, hold on!"

When the boy heard this, a trace of confusion flashed across his eyes.

"Press up his shoulders and legs!"

Another doctor shouted loudly, and then the iron clamped the end of the arrow shaft and pulled it hard. The bloody arrow shaft was pulled out immediately. At the same time, a bloody arrow suddenly shot out! The young man's limbs were suddenly straightened, the blue veins on his forehead swelled up, the spirit in his eyes quickly dimmed, and the sound of the load in his throat was extremely hoarse!

Shen Zhezi squatted aside. When he saw this scene, his eyes suddenly condensed. Influenced by the memories of later generations, he thought that the boy would scream loudly. However, when he saw this scene, he realized that the pain that really penetrated into the bone marrow could not be shouted out.

Another doctor held the ointment in both hands and pressed the blood hole on the boy's chest and back, but blood still gushed out along the cracks of his fingers. The boy's face became paler and his body trembled like a malaria, and his eyes were constantly turning upwards.

"I can survive in front of me, I can survive tonight, and I won't be able to maintain it for long, and I am another fierce man."

Guo Song walked behind Shen Zhezi, followed his sight and sighed, "If you were in the north, you could only take the matter with one knife, which would save a lot of pain."

Shen Zhezi woke up as if he was in a dream. He suddenly stood up and wandered a few steps away. He wiped the cold sweat from his face, and then he barely squeezed out a smile and waved his hand, "I'm fine."

Seeing the boy's hands unnaturally growing and clenching, Guo Song sighed in his heart. Who would like to see such a miserable scene if anyone with normal human habits? Shen Zhezi's ability to withstand much better than he thought. When he first entered the battle formation, he only had to wipe his tears every time, and only dared to hold the sword with his sword a few months later.

Shen Zhezi didn't know what Guo Song was thinking, so he cut off a corner of his clothes and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead. He felt even more sticky and wet. Then he found that the corner of his clothes had been wet with blood. He didn't have to think that his forehead was also bloody. He laughed at himself, threw the blood-stained cloth in his hand in the corner, and then went to the wall, looked at the messy battlefield below and frowned: "I see that the enemy was very messy when I fought before. It shouldn't be the elite of Liyang?"

Guo Songxing went to Shen Zhezi and nodded: "As you expected, there are no two or three attackers in the past few days, and there is no basis for advancing and retreating. They are definitely not the main unit of Liyang. It should be that the young and strong plundered counties in recent years, and they were driven forward to numb our army. The chief general ** has never appeared in the plundering formation, but should be leading the crowd to cruising around and looking for a way out."

After hearing this, Shen Zhezi was silent again and looked at the dead bodies below, and felt extremely complicated. Nowadays, young and strong cows can cultivate more than acres of good fields without delaying the farming season, and produce hundreds of hu of grain every year. However, now, it is just a piece of rotten corpse and rotten meat stacked under the wall, and it is meaningless to die.

The majestic and towering Daye Pass is secondly because it is built according to the Beidiwu wall. The base wall has a gentle slope at the bottom, which is nearly meter long. On the one hand, it increases the stability of the wall, and on the other hand, it creates obstacles to the enemy's attack. If necessary, it can be placed to resettle the horse. At the same time, it is extremely difficult to build a ladder. To a certain extent, it lengthens the front line and reduces the blind spots covered by arrows under the wall. When it is necessary to attack the enemy at night, it is extremely convenient for both protruding and connecting.

Just this difference in architecture can actually create so many tactical advantages. Shen Zhezi sincerely admired the war wisdom of the ancients. But when he thought of this architectural change, he couldn't laugh at him.

The Great Pass of Daye is located here, with continuous mountains near the corners. Even if there are mountain trails, it is difficult to allow a large number of troops to pass through. People can walk through, and even the weapons cannot be transported. It can be said that as long as the Daye is not lost, Jingkou will be safe for the time being. Unless the Liyang tribe can go south to break through Xuancheng, and then go around Wuzhong and enter Jingkou. But if this happens, Jiangzhou will never be able to sit idly by, and the Liyang tribe dare not go deep into the sky.

Therefore, at Dayeguan, Shen Zhezi had never used his own hands from construction to defense, and he firmly grasped this place. Now that Duzhong is in full swing, Shen Zhezi led his troops to this place. At this point, many of the early arrangements have come to an end. Whether various layouts can be finally implemented and effective will eventually be put on the battlefield and decide on the outcome.

In the next few days, the ** unit maintained an optional offensive against Daye Pass, but its main force had already rushed left and right before the pass, raging all parties, hoping to block the connection between Jingkou and the west. However, this was so difficult. Not to mention that the Zuyou of Yuzhou was fighting fiercely with the Later Zhao army and had no time to look south. Jiangdong alone was still defending Xuancheng and Jiangzhou had repeated moves. ** itself did not have many troops, so it would be difficult to completely isolate Jingkou.

In mid-March, all parties in the west finally responded. Jiangzhou came with Wen Qiao's cousin Wen Chong and Sima Wang Qianqi, who detoured Wuzhong to Jingkou. Later, Wang Qianqi rushed to Dayeguan to send Wen Qiao's handwritten letter. There was nothing else in the letter, but it expressed concerns about the current situation and grief about Yu Liang's death, and also expressed support for Jingkou Xingtai.

Shen Zhezi couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw this letter. With his current power, Wen Qiao didn't have to talk to him about these things seriously. But now he sent a close confidant to send such a letter, which indirectly means that his family can put national crisis first and do not have too many selfish thoughts.

After understanding Wen Qiao's painstaking advice, Shen Zhezi didn't care much. Although he saved Wen Qiao's life, to be honest, there was no such intimate friendship between them. Just as he pulled Yu Yi to Jingkou after Yu Liang's death instead of going to Jiangzhou, Wen Qiao now has some reservations about his family's trust, which is also human nature. As long as they can ensure that they can echo each other and raise an army to quell the rebellion together, they can wait until they quell the rebellion before discussing it in detail.

In addition, Wen Qiao did not mention anything about the matter of Kuaiji's fenzhou, which also expressed his attitude. That is, he did not agree with it, but he would not stop it. This attitude of silentness was actually a kind of support. Because Kuaiji's fenzhou established Dongyangzhou, from a geographical point of view, it was necessary to cut off the two counties of Jiangzhou, which was also to divide Wen Qiao's power.

In addition to Jiangzhou, there are also envoys from Yongzhou and Xiangzhou. Yongzhou is now only established, with only jurisdiction in Xiangfan, while Xiangzhou is a vassal of Jingzhou. The two states sent envoys to the place, which is more of a place, and the actual significance is not great. The arrival of envoys from these two states cast a haze on the originally great situation. Because Jingzhou, which is closer to Jingkou, is lagging behind these two states. (.)
