Cheng Bo was happy to see Hunting, but his chief of staff Zheng Huai didn't dare to agree, in his opinion, it was really unnecessary to use a big general for this kind of small-scale assault!

He said tactfully: "General, you also have to give the young lads a chance to improve!" ”

Cheng Boxi was right to think about it, with his current status, one more credit for such a merit cannot be rewarded at all (the experience value of his upgrade is too high), at most there is an additional "melee assault medal", it is useless to come.

However, the middle and low-ranking officers could be promoted and promoted on the basis of this, so he no longer insisted and left it to the chief of staff to decide who to choose.

……

Klaas changed into a Tang Army uniform, and people brought him a mirror, and the person in the mirror was mighty, giving him a strange feeling.

He heard that he was already a middle-level officer of the sixth grade, and he could command thousands of people!

It's not a joke, when this battle is over, if there is no accident, he will be sent to the military academy for training, and after completing his studies, he will sit down in the sixth grade!

He was a despised slave before!

Now he has ten soldiers for his retinue, specially providing protection and services for him, and he is hugging him when he goes out.

Of course, it is related to the smooth operation of the war in the future, and if he is not taken care of, the army will continue to fight here, and the trouble is really not small.

Although the road was built, it was not a railway, and it was still not very efficient to walk in the mountains, and it was not easy to supply tens of thousands of people, plus the plateau climate (on the contrary, there was a lot less altitude sickness), and the enemy's defense was tight, and it was unbearable to fight.

Therefore, the leader of the squad was given the order to ensure the safety of the Gauls, and this order was not a joke, if the Gauls died and the squad was fine, the squad would be severely punished by military discipline!

……

3,000 Tang troops and 2,000 migrant laborers marched through the mountains, which was a primeval forest that had existed since ancient times, inaccessible to people, and the roads were difficult and there was no way out.

The officer who led the team was called Wang Haibin, who was quite brave and was the target of key training in the army.

If Wei does not come, according to the historical trajectory, Wang Haibin will be a high-ranking official, and finally martyred in the battle of Tubo, and his son will become a famous general in the East... Wang Zhonghe!

This Wang Zhonghei shined in the attack on Tubo, and broke the main force of the northern line of Tubo during the Battle of Qinghai Lake, with tens of thousands of Tibetan dead and wounded, and the two princes killed, so that Tuyuhun surrendered to Tang.

It is difficult to say that there is no Wang Zhongsi in the future, at least it is impossible for him to break Tubo, because Wei has already broken Tubo.

Wang Haibin's ability made him still stand out and become the main general of this raid.

They trudged through the forest, and when there was no road, they took turns to clear the way, remove the trees, and remove the stones.

The road is extremely difficult, and after walking for half a day, you can still see the location before departure!

Can this go around the back mountain? There was a big question mark in everyone's hearts, and they hurried away, and after walking all day, they all looked at this Gaul with suspicion.

He didn't say much, he just pointed out this direction for everyone and didn't say anything, just walking away without saying anything, which is suspicious.

It was getting dark and everyone was confident that the Gauls led everyone to a large mountain rock, and said with confidence: "There is a small stream in front, it is the melting snow of the high mountains, you can rest there!" ”

Turn around the mountain rocks, and sure enough!

A stream of white silver beads flowed happily, and everyone had smiles on their faces.

In the evening, after ensuring the shading, everyone lit the marching stove, used the coal they brought with them as fuel, cooked a hot meal and enjoyed it beautifully, and then shared hot tea with everyone, only to feel that the strength was exhausted!

Thus confidence in the Gauls was greatly increased.

…… When everyone came out of the dark woods and walked to a cliff, all of them had solemn faces.

I saw the huge stone rock straight up, unattainable, everyone raised their necks to look up, and they had to use the peripheral vision of their eyes to barely reach the top.

You can't move forward, you can't go back.

If the Franks had sent a few men on the rockside above, it would have been a matter of inadequacy.

"At the beginning, we came down from above, and after going up, there was a mountain behind it!"

Rock climbing!

Ordinary armies are simply at a loss for such natural risks, and the benefits of mountain soldiers can be seen here, they have a full set of mountaineering equipment!

Main rope: The rope that runs through the top and bottom is an indispensable lifeline for rock climbing, and it is also the main rope for everyone to climb to the top.

Harness and waist shoulder straps: Attached to the climber, it carries the weight and momentum of their fall.

Rock plug: metal products of different specifications and shapes, which can be placed in rock crevices, stone caves, stone bridges and other terrain and fixed, becoming a protective point.

Pitons: One end is wedge-shaped, which provides protection by striking the wedge into the rock crevice, and the other end is a ring, which attaches to the harness

Helmet: Effectively prevent head injuries caused by falling rocks and abnormal falling postures, and do not look up or hold your head with your hands and meet the stones with your helmet when falling rocks.

Climbing shoes: The sole is made of special leather, which greatly increases the friction.

……

With these equipment, coupled with the well-trained troops, a series of team members climbed the rocks!

Looking up from the cliff, I saw that they were vigorous and vigorous, and their movements did not drag mud and water, and gradually rose into the air and went to the top of the mountain.

The fierce mountain wind blew, and although the protection measures were effective, it also blew everyone back and forth.

It doesn't seem like a big problem, I don't want to wait until I climb up, there are still two feet high, the mountain rock there is like a wall, and the rock is as hard as iron for countless years, and no rock plug or pid can get in!

Several steel nails were struck, all of which were blunt and bent.

No matter what, you can't go up, you can't go down... Everyone didn't even dare to get angry, and the people in front of them were sweating profusely!

Wang Haibin also followed the troops up (but he didn't need to open the way), he climbed up, took out his dagger, found a small rock crevice, and thrust it in/in/out hard!

Shan Yan stubbornly resisted the blue and faint quenched steel blade, but under the strength of his powerful hands to kill the lion and tiger, blood poured to his face, and under the tenacious high-quality sharp weapon made by the Tang people, Shan Yan succumbed.

Three more daggers until the top of the rock, and he climbed up!

"Oh yes!"

The people let out a burst of cheers in their hearts to see the main rope thrown down and the road to the top of the mountain opened!

……

The Frankish camp was divided into the front and rear villages, and during the day, the old generals of Pushika stayed in the front villages to direct the battle.

The momentum of the Tang attack continued unabated, and their military work was approaching only thirty meters from the Frankish camp, that is, the concrete road was paved to this point, and they were out of range of the Franks' boulder attack to shoot at the Franks.

Both sides had their own defenses, shooting arrows at each other, and there was a lot of noise in the battle array.

Pu Shika nervously commanded the battle, and suddenly, he heard a wave of sound coming from behind, turned his head to look, and his face turned pale in an instant!
