Zhan Ban used his personal experience to prove that Beishan Pass is not a good bone to chew.

The Ming army's garrison here was too complete, and they thought of everything they could think of.

Even the Ming army is equipped with things like artillery. How does Zhan Ban attack?

Although he felt a little humiliated, Zhan Ban still went to report to Shuoetu.

After listening to Zhan Ban's story, Shuo'ertu's expression was shaking.

"You finished speaking?"

"Yes, General..."

Zhan Ban wanted to say something else, but Shuoetu raised his hand and said, "I understand, the Ming army must have tried to delay time at all costs. This shows that their attack on Hanzhong was not smooth."

He pondered for a moment and then said, "The more we are, the less we can't panic. You think the Beishan Pass is difficult to attack, and maybe the Ming army still finds it difficult to defend. They will definitely suffer heavy losses in this battle. Maybe we only need to do our best to attack."

Shuo'ertu looked at Zhan Ban with fun: "Do you still have the confidence to fight again?"

Zhan Ban immediately straightened his chest and said, "I'm willing to die for the general."

Shuo'ertu nodded with satisfaction.

"Very good, the Manchu warriors should have such courage. But this time we have to change the tactics."

......

......

Liu Fangliang was patrolling the camp, and the situation of the wounded soldiers full of the camp worried him.

Most of the injured soldiers were injured by huge stones, and some seriously injured were dead or dying.

Although Liu Fangliang had already responded immediately and bombarded the catapult with artillery, he still suffered considerable losses.

Every soldier here was a soldier brought out by Liu Fangliang, and some were even his fellow villagers in the same village, with a deep relationship.

Seeing them endure the pain, Liu Fangliang felt very uncomfortable.

But he also knew that these were inevitable in war.

There will be casualties and sacrifices when there is war. The key is whether these sacrifices are worth it.

Liu Fangliang knew very well that the Beishan Pass was the key to the Ming and Qing dynasties fighting for Hanzhong, and neither side could afford to lose.

So no matter how heavy the price he paid, he must win this battle.

Liu Fangliang walked to the injured and sat down, and greeted them cordially.

At this moment, he is no longer a lofty general, but a responsible big brother.

Liu Fangliang hoped that the Ming army could take Hanzhong and march into Guanzhong in one fell swoop.

As a Shaanxi native, I have been away from my hometown for so many years and have a desperate hope to return to my hometown.

When Liu Fangliang thought of the miserable oppression and exploitation of the Tartars, his heart was bleeding.

But this is exactly what motivated him.

Even at some moments of the battle, he felt that he was not killing the enemy for the sake of the court or the emperor, but for the sake of the people of Shaanxi. He was fulfilling the responsibilities of a child of the Sanqin.

The people in Shaanxi are honest and honest. They never take the initiative to cause trouble, but they are never afraid of trouble.

They are now just confined to the tyranny of the Tartars and dare not speak out.

Liu Fangliang believed that as long as he led the army to attack back to Guanzhong, the Sanqin elders would respond positively.

Even if they don’t have swords, guns, swords and halberds in their hands, it doesn’t matter if they have axes, halberds, hooks and forks.

The Qin people have been a martial arts spirit since ancient times. They may be able to raise their hoes and forks in their hands to fight against the brutal Tartar soldiers. They will pour out all the anger and resentment accumulated over the years.

Liu Fangliang urgently hoped to see that day, so Beishan Pass must be guarded.

According to Wen Anzhi's deployment, there was only Liu Fangliang, a soldier at Beishan Pass.

So Liu Fangliang knew very well that no one would come to reinforce him.

All he had to do was to defend this bottom line to the death.

There are only so many soldiers you can use in your hands, so you must be very cautious when using them.

Liu Fangliang did not give up any of the wounded people. Not only did he ask people to bandage them well, but he also asked someone to take good care of them.

This is extremely rare in the army.

Generally speaking, the injured are considered a burden, and abandoning the injured in an emergency is a very common move.

But it is not here for Liu Fangliang.

He will not give up any injured brother.

The Tatars' previous attack was just a tentative attack, and Liu Fangliang knew that a more fierce offensive was coming.

He must arrange every detail before this.

"General, this is a handwritten letter sent by Governor Wen."

Just as Liu Fangliang was thinking, a personal soldier said to him respectfully.

Liu Fangliang said with a oh, and took the letter from his personal soldiers and opened it to read it.

The letter was not much, but Liu Fangliang read it very seriously.

Because this was the order of Wen Anzhi, the supreme commander of the Ming army in Sichuan.

Judging from the past situation, Wen Anzhi's tactics were very successful, and the Ming army could always win a great victory.

To convince others, you need to show your strength. This is especially true in the army.

It is precisely because of so many successful precedents that Liu Fangliang firmly believes that there will be no mistakes in following Wen Anzhi.

He felt much better after reading the letter.

It turned out that Wen Anzhi's side stated that the army had launched a siege on Hanzhong.

This was a few days ahead of the original plan, and it was about to break the city according to this pace.

Wen Anzhi wrote a handwritten letter to Liu Fangliang, one to tell him the good news, and the other to let Liu Fangliang persevere again.

As long as Hanzhong City is broken, the first battle of the Northern Expedition will be considered successful.

Liu Fangliang felt a little sad for a moment.

When Wen'anzhi first sent Liu Fangliang to lead his troops to guard Beishan Pass, his purpose was to block the Qing army in Hanzhong who fled back to Shaanxi.

But now it seems that their mission is to block the Qing army that came from Guanzhong to lift the siege of Hanzhong.

Although the specific task has changed, the essence is the same.

When a man is in the city, a man dies and a city is broken.

Liu Fangliang is a person who knows how to be grateful.

When the Ming Dynasty was just surrendered, it turned out that the old brothers in the Shun army were very worried, worried that the court would use methods to punish them, the remnants of the rebels of that year.

But the facts prove that they judge a gentleman by the heart of a villain.

The reason why everyone can receive preferential treatment is naturally due to the wisdom of the Holy Emperor, but Wen Anzhi's contribution is also very important.

If Wen Anzhi had no equal treatment or even support from the generals of the Yuan Shun Army, their lives would not have been so easy, and they would not have had so many opportunities to kill the Tartars and serve their country.

This is a sign of rejuvenation for a wise ruler and wise minister.

Liu Fangliang is very glad that he made the right choice at the right time.

If one could make contributions in the Northern Expedition and contribute to the revival of the Ming Dynasty, one would definitely write about historic books a hundred years later.

Isn’t what a person wants to live forever?

Now this opportunity is in front of Liu Fangliang, so of course he has to seize it.

Perhaps the Tartars are his destiny enemy.

Since the Battle of Shanhaiguan, they have been entangled.

Since that's the case, let's decide the winner from today.
