Chapter 109 Statues, the Battle of the Sacha River
Two flowers bloom, each with one branch.
Shenjing, Zhaowuhou Mansion.
"Hey! Hey!"
The neat sound of horns rang in the garden of the Hou Mansion.
Two craftsmen from the Ministry of Works were commanding a group of powerful men to slowly move a white marble statue about meter high from the back door of the Marquis' Mansion.
The statue is a portrait of Jia Jing and Lin Daiyu.
On the base of the white marble, Jia Jing stood in a long robe and cloak. Lin Daiyu, dressed in a gorgeous manner, leaned gently beside Jia Jing, and the two looked at each other.
Lifelike!
Because the statue was too tall, in order to move the statue into the mansion, two craftsmen from the Ministry of Works demolished the wall of the back door of the Marquis' Mansion after reporting to Lin Daiyu.
In the yard next to it, Baochai, Xiangyun, Baoyu, Jia Lian and Sanchun are all here to watch.
"I just saw the statue, and it was exactly the same as a real person!"
Shi Xiangyun pulled Xichun and shared his peeking results with a smile.
Xichun also smiled and said, "Don't say anything, Brother Jing's third brother is getting more and more bad ideas to please Sister Lin!"
Lin Daiyu next to him said to the two of them red, "I just said something casual that day, who knew that I really had to let the Ministry of Works bring such a big portrait to the person!"
“…”
After hearing Lin Daiyu's words, Shi Xiangyun and Xichun said they didn't want to speak.
...
Outside the yard, Xueyan ran in with a smile, "The old lady is here!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Xifeng outside helped Jia Mu and had already walked in.
Several people hurriedly stepped forward to greet Grandma Jia.
Wang Xifeng smiled and said, "Old ancestor, when Brother Jing comes back, you have to talk about him carefully. It would be fine to show off his love with Sister Lin in front of us on weekdays. Now he is still so big that he is to show off his figure!"
"It's really Feng Lazi, her mouth is still so powerful!" Jia Mu also laughed, "But the portrait of Jing Ge'er and Daiyu is like a real person!"
"Old lady, I know this!"
Shi Xiangyun on the side smiled and said, "I just asked the two craftsmen from the Ministry of Works there, and said that the statue was written by a stone carving master from the Ministry of Works. It is said that the masters used to carve things for the palace. This time, Jing Sango took it from the emperor and asked for that huge white marble again!"
Wang Xifeng suddenly realized and said, "No wonder, I just said that such a large white marble is rare. It turns out to be the imperial object in the palace!"
...
After a while, the Lifu and his friends placed the statue in the position designated by Lin Daiyu. Then, under the command of two craftsmen, they cleaned up the beginning and end of the way and restored the moving and damaged places, and the project was completed.
Two craftsmen came over and asked Lin Daiyu to resign.
Lin Daiyu hurriedly ordered Zijuan to take out two generous red envelopes and give them to them, and reward them with one silver croaker for each of them.
Everyone hurriedly thanked him and refused to mention him.
Afterwards, Lin Daiyu asked the craftsman to bring a richer red envelope to the master craftsman who was responsible for carving portraits in the Ministry of Works, and told her to pass the message. After a while, when Jia Jing came back from the border, she would be grateful to the master craftsman.
The craftsman nodded quickly and said that he would convey the words on his behalf when he returned.
Seeing Lin Daiyu handling the matter in an orderly manner, Jia Mu smiled and said, "It's true that she has become a relative. This family is well-managed!"
After hearing this, everyone laughed.
Lin Daiyu also laughed, but looked at the tall figure not far away, and she couldn't help but feel longing for people from afar...
……………………
North of the Secha River Guard.
On a short mountain that was not tall, Jia Jing looked at the Tatar army that firmly surrounded the acropolis.
Putting away the Qianli Miles Miles, Jia Jing smiled and said, "We are really lucky. We chose this direction just to avoid the Tatars' artillery!"
Then, his brows frowned slightly again.
"At this time, I guess there should be not much food and supplies in the Acropolis, right?"
Suppressing the worries in his heart, Jia Jing called the four cavalry captains on the side and explained:
"This time we dispatched a total of 6,000 cavalry. After a while, I will lead two thousand cavalry. The remaining 4,000 cavalry will be divided into two teams. You four will lead one thousand men and horses into a square formation.
Later, the two teams followed the general to rush to kill the enemy, and the other two teams will hide their bodies under this short mountain.
If there are pursuers passing by later, they will immediately come out, first cut them off in the waist, and then cut off the pursuit troops' retreat! Together with the other cavalry returning to eat the pursuers directly!
OK, go and follow our instructions!"
The four cavalry captains all said respectfully: "I am humble and obey the general's orders!"
Jia Jing nodded and then signaled the captains to retreat to reorganize the army.
...
After a cup of tea, a low horn sounded on the low mountain.
Amid the sound of the trumpet, four thousand-man cavalry phalanxes rushed down from the low mountain. With an unrivaled momentum amid the sound of horse hooves like rolling thunder, they rushed towards the Tatar army in the distance like a huge wave that could lift the mountains and seas.
Such a large formation was naturally discovered by the Tatar army very soon.
Immediately, one infantry phalanx after another came out of the Tatar army, and set up shields and spears to face Jia Jing's cavalry.
The shields reflecting the sun's rays were built together, and under the sun, it seemed like a wall of steel flashing with light.
...
“Woo…”
Under Jia Jing's instructions, another low horn sounded in the cavalry phalanx.
So, the Tatar army, who had been waiting for the formation, saw that the four cavalry phalanxes behind Jia Jing suddenly changed with the loud horns.
In a short period of time, the two cavalry phalanxes turned from square to sharp arrow clusters.
The most acute part is the heavy cavalry with dozens of men and horses in the ranks.
The two cavalry phalanxes behind instantly moved closer to the sagittal cavalry phalanxes in front.
Just like that, two sharp long arrows with clusters of arrows and arrow bodies are formed!
...
The May sunshine shines from the sky.
It fell on this passionate battlefield, on the firm faces, and on the sharp blades of armor and swords...
So, the original warmth is no longer there, but now there is only boundless solemnity!
...
Amid the rumbling sound of horse hooves, the distance between the two sides was approaching rapidly.
One is the seemingly indestructible iron wall, and the other is the invincible sharp arrow. The two collided with each other under the gaze of everyone on the battlefield!
A loud bang spread throughout the battlefield in an instant.
Like a mountain capsized, like a river and sea turning over!
The arrows with heavy cavalry as the sharp edges penetrated into the indestructible iron wall.
The Tatar infantry standing in the front, together with their severely deformed shield, was instantly knocked away by the boundless impact force and landed far behind the army formation, killing and injuring.
In just a moment, the sharp arrows tear open a huge crack on the iron wall of the copper wall!
And with the crazy influx of cavalry behind, the crack was still expanding.
Four teams of cavalry, two teams of cavalry that have turned into arrows, rushed straight into the depths of the Tatar army after breaking through the formation of the Tatar infantry.
Behind, the cavalry as the arrows set off a large arc in front of the Tatar army.
The rain of arrows seemed to be free, falling from the sky in dense crowds, and the Tatar infantry who wanted to turn around and surround the Great Zhou cavalry inside were shot up.
In the distance, the cavalry of the Tatar army finally gathered. A cavalry team of thousands of people rushed out from the Tatar Central Army and rushed towards the two cavalry phalanxes left outside Jia Jing...
Chapter completed!
