Finely broken snowflakes fell from the sky one after another, and the whole world was vast. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Under his feet, he has long been frozen solid.

The shallow layer of snow solidifies with the rough ground, and stepping on it is deep and shallow, making it a little difficult to guard against.

Seeing that Ning Yuancheng behind him was gradually moving away, and was already engulfed by the gradually dense snow, Duan Xiliang couldn't help but spit fiercely: "General, this dog's surname is Yuan, he simply doesn't treat us as human beings!" This dog is so deceitful! ”

"That's it! Fuck, he's a ball! Lao Tzu came across the sea to see the stinky face of the donkey ball? ”

Kong Youde also smacked fiercely, obviously extremely unhappy.

It was the old official Canghai, and his expression was also very displeased, "General, fortunately, the weather is bad today, and there are no Tartars around, otherwise, this surnamed Yuan is pushing us into the fire pit!" ”

Junzi also chirped: "General, let's go to Juehua Island, a turtle bastard!" It's so cold this day, let's go back to Liaonan directly! What's the ink with the surname Yuan of the dog day! ”

"Shut up Lao Tzu!"

Li Yuanqing glanced at the surroundings coldly, and the surrounding generals were suddenly silent.

Perhaps feeling that the tone was a little too harsh, Li Yuanqing relaxed a little: "The surname Yuan is the surname Yuan, we are us!" This dog haggard can be unkind, but we can't be unjust! Our brothers, we came to Liaoxi with all our might, not to praise his stinky feet surnamed Yuan! We are here to fight this battle for the emperor, for the court, and for the Ming Dynasty! It's too cold to go this way, the brothers will freeze! Pass on my orders, pick up your speed, and run forward. When we arrive at the fleet, we will have something to eat and drink! ”

"Yes!"

Li Yuanqing spoke, and no one dared to slack off, so they hurriedly packed up their thoughts and began to run briskly in the direction of the eastern sea fleet.

…………

Although the weather was extremely cold, the equipment of the children of the Immortal Camp was excellent, and as they ran with their steps, everyone's bodies were also hot.

However, marching in such weather, still at night, bumps and bumps, including some frostbite, are obviously inevitable.

Even Li Yuanqing's left cheek also felt like it had been cut by a knife, and it hurt and hurt, but as the running became hot, it was extremely itchy, which was obviously a precursor to frostbite!

Fortunately, Xiaolian, Xiaohe, Zhang Die, and Zhao Mei are all in the prime of life, and their clothes are wide, so they all wrap themselves tightly, only exposing their two eyes, and closely following Li Yuanqing's side, there is not much trouble.

Otherwise, if they frostbite their delicate little faces, it would really be enough to make Li Yuanqing feel distressed.

After nearly two hours of arduous travel, before dawn, the team finally successfully joined the fleet.

There was already a news from the front of the armies with strong legs and feet to the fleet, and the fleet had already made preparations, and with the continuous serving of hot water and food, the faces of the soldiers finally began to regain their blood.

After briefly eating some food and drinking some hot water, Li Yuanqing waved his hand, and the soldiers began to board the ship in an orderly manner.

Originally, Li Yuanqing wanted the team to rush to Juehua Island on foot, but the weather at this time was too bad, not to mention that the dripping water turned into ice, even if he couldn't pee, he couldn't take out the guys, and he would even be directly frozen in ice.

The soldiers also need the warmth of the cabin to allow some time to recover.

With the completion of the soldiers on board, the sky gradually began to brighten up a little, but the whole sky was still dark.

Looking at this appearance, in a short period of time, this heavy snow is not going to stop.

At this time, although the sea surface is very frozen, the sailors of the Changsheng Camp have already had a lot of experience in breaking the ice, and they expected this when they were moored, and there was a gap between the ship and the ice a few steps, at this time, with the help of the current, it did not take too much effort to close the anchor and set sail.

Unfortunately, the sea to the south, north, and west has already been frozen in severe ice, and if the fleet wants to go to Juehua Island by sea, it can only go east, detour to the deep sea, and land on the west side of Juehua Island.

Originally, it only took an hour to travel, but it took nearly four hours, and when the soldiers of the Changsheng Battalion successfully arrived at the grain city of Juehua Island, it was already the afternoon of the twenty-fourth day of the first month, and it was about to reach the time of Shen.

There was a cavalry advance communication, the guard general of Juehua Island, the general Jin Guan, and the general Yao Fumin had already gotten the news and hurried over to greet Li Yuanqing and his party.

Li Yuanqing and Jin Guan have long known each other.

Back then, when Sun Chengzong first went to Liaoxi to take office, Jin Guan was still a guerrilla, and Li Yuanqing was also a guerrilla, and the two had already 'connected to the head'.

For Li Yuanqing's arrival, Jinguan is naturally very welcome.

And Yao Fumin, another staff general, although he was not too interested in Li Yuanqing, Li Yuanqing's ability to come was undoubtedly a big boost to the defense of Juehua Island, and he also welcomed it.

After a brief greeting, Jin Guan and Yao Fumin hurriedly hugged Li Yuanqing and came to sit in the official hall in the grain city.

At this time, Li Yuanqing also discovered some of them.

One mountain does not tolerate two tigers.

The relationship between Jin Guan and Yao Fumin is far from being as harmonious as it seems!

However, there were only a thousand soldiers on Juehua Island at this time, and most of the rest were sailors and miscellaneous servants, even if Jin Guan and Yao Fumin pinched each other, it would not have much impact on Li Yuanqing.

And Yao Fumin, Li Yuanqing had no contact with him before, but he had a bad feeling for Li Yuanqing as soon as he came up, eight ~ nine times out of ten, because of the golden crown.

After a simple lunch, Li Yuanqing was no longer polite, and said directly: "We can eat the banquet later." But the main force of Houjin is in front of us, and in terms of defense, we must not be the slightest slack. At this time, the weather is freezing cold, General Yao, General Jin, how is the ice digging work on the island at this time? ”

According to the practice of the Ming Dynasty, the island city, especially the important military island such as Juehua Island, in winter, ice digging work is the most important.

But Jin Guan was a guerrilla of the water army on Juehua Island, and he smiled and put the responsibility on Yao Fumin.

Yao Fumin didn't shirk it, but said with a bitter face: "Li Shuai, these days, I have led thousands of soldiers and civilians on the island to work day and night, and I have dug a trench for fifteen miles. It's a pity that this god is so ruthless, if you chisel ice today, you will freeze it tomorrow. Humble duty, low office is also ......"

Seeing Yao Fumin's helpless face and as if he was about to cry, Li Yuanqing's senses for him were a little better.

Yao Fumin and Jin Guan are about the same age, both in their early thirties, less than forty, but at this time, Jin Guan's maintenance is full of oil, and his skin is ruddy, while Yao Fumin is full of wrinkles and vicissitudes of life, and there are a lot of frostbite sores on his face and hands.

If you don't know the details, I'm afraid that even if Yao Fumin is the father of the golden crown, some people will definitely believe it.

Li Yuanqing nodded slowly.

The golden crown is 'greasy', and Yao Fumin is hardworking, which can be regarded as complementary.

It's a pity that the situation on Juehua Island at this time is tens of thousands of times more serious than they expected.

Li Yuanqing didn't have time to care about Jin Guan and Yao Fumin's behavior at this time, "Let's go, let's go and have a look." ”

Li Yuanqing spoke, and Jin Guan and Yao Fumin did not dare to slack off, so they hurriedly hugged Li Yuanqing and came to the seaside not far from Liangcheng to inspect the situation.

Juehua Island is a small group of islands, in addition to the main island of Juehua Island, there are three small islands around, but they are all projectile land.

Juehua Island as a whole is in the shape of a 'gourd', wide at both ends, narrow in the middle, and the core of the island ---- the grain city, which is built in the northern section closer to Ningyuan City.

Docks, boats, and a range of military installations are also located in the northern sector.

From the middle to the south, there are many houses scattered in fragments.

In fact, the grain city of Juehua Island is not big, the circumference of one side is a little more than a mile, and the height is about six or seven meters.

"Li Shuai, you see, this is the trench dug out by the lowly leader. This was chiseled the day before yesterday, and it has been frozen. It was chiseled yesterday, and it's about to freeze! ”

Yao Fumin pointed to the solid ice that had been frozen in front of him, and said helplessly to Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing nodded and stepped forward to investigate in person.

Ice trenches spread along the entire western part of the island, around the grain city, to both sides.

It can be seen that Yao Fumin and the others did their best, and the depth of the ice was probably more than 30 centimeters, and in the process of their excavation, they should have seen the seawater.

Unfortunately, the depth of the trench was sufficient, but the width was far from enough, about forty or fifty centimeters wide, and it was not surprising that it was frozen overnight in such harsh weather conditions.

"General Yao, how did you dig the ice?"

Li Yuanqing studied here for a while before he opened his mouth and said to Yao Fumin.

Yao Fumin hurriedly said: "Li Shuai, lowly and lowly people are all digging with manpower, using hammers and nails to chisel the ice surface, and then further expand. ”

Li Yuanqing nodded, and slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, "General Yao, it's hard for you." However, to be honest, this ice layer is still difficult to resist the footsteps of dog tartars! ”

Yao Fumin was a little helpless, but he didn't know how to refute it, like a deflated rooster, he hung his head in annoyance.

Jin Guan hurriedly smiled: "Li Shuai, you are wise and powerful, experienced in a hundred battles, in your opinion, how should we defend against this battle?" Make sure the island is foolproof? ”

Li Yuanqing glanced at Jin Guan, and Jin Guan hurriedly lowered his head humbly.

Yao Fumin couldn't help but whisper on the side: "Sycophant." ”

But although its voice was small, it clearly reached the ears of Li Yuanqing and Jin Guan.

Jin Guan couldn't help but be angry, and he was about to attack, but Li Yuanqing glanced at Jin Guan and signaled him to restrain himself.

Jin Guanqiang swallowed this breath, but said to Li Yuanqing: "Li Shuai, you also saw it." The island is in such a situation now, and there are people who just don't want the island to be good! ”

Li Yuanqing waved his hand: "They are all their own brothers." We are all grasshoppers on a rope now, what if we care about these things anymore, what if the tartars come? ”

Saying that, Li Yuanqing looked at Yao Fumin and said: "General Yao, you are the head snake, in your opinion, in this situation, how should our army defend it?" ”

Although Yao Fumin is not interested in Li Yuanqing who is on the same line as the Golden Crown, Li Yuanqing is the veteran general of Megatron after all, and his military rank is several levels higher than him, and although Li Yuanqing is good friends with the Golden Crown, his means of handling things are very neutral, and he does not favor the Golden Crown too much, and he has always been kind and pleasant, and Yao Fumin feels a lot better.

Busy respectfully said: "Li Shuai, the island is centered on the grain city. If the Tartars attacked, it must be the main target of the grain city. I think that our defense regulations should still be centered on the grain city. ”
