After General Xin's army captured Huichuan, the army headed directly to the important town of Dali to plan the government office. Visit:.

This Mai Tongfu Palace is the last barrier to the north of Dali Capital. If Mai Tongfu Palace is lost, Dali Capital will face the Song Dynasty's army of conquest.

Because of this, the Prime Minister of Dali, Gao Guanyinzheng, had to come here in person and prepare to guard against each other.

Speaking of the Forum, Gao Zhenming was in charge of the city for more than ten years. Eighteen years ago, Gao Zhenming was supported by Gao Guanyinlong, the father of Gao Guanyinzheng, as the Prime Minister. As a result, he was only a few months old, and was pulled down from the position of Prime Minister Gao Shouchang by Aji, who was loyal to the former Prime Minister Gao Shouchang, and Gao Shouchang regained his position as Prime Minister. However, two years later, Gao Guanyinlong's son Gao Guanyinmiao raised an army to drive Gao Shouchang off the stage, and Gao Guanyinmiao became the Prime Minister himself.

Gao Zhenming had at least been a big shot and was also excited. The prime minister was helped by his uncle Gao Guanyinlong to power. He had to be self-aware, or his strength was not good. So he just stayed in the government office and managed his territory wholeheartedly. His uncle Gao Guanyinlong and Gao Guanyin Miao and his son were good to him and reciprocate himself. Of course, he had to support Gao Guanyin Miao as the prime minister.

Three years ago, after Gao Guanyin Miao passed away, Gao Zhenming clearly supported Gao Guanyin Miao's younger brother Gao Guanyin Zheng as the prime minister. Gao Guanyin Zheng was not vague, and the support he received was extremely rich, even a bit ridiculous. Two years ago, Gao Zhenming passed away. Under Gao Guanyin Zheng's "care" by Gao Zhenming, Gao Zhenming was posthumously named Emperor Yidi Weitian Congming Ren. Please take a look at it. Is this kind of approach to Dali Kingdom a bit ridiculous! No wonder the newspapers in the Song Dynasty criticized Dali Kingdom very much. It was too unprotective, "unfaithful and unfilial", and did not know etiquette, righteousness, integrity and shame, and it was a mess.

For the Gao family in Dali, they did not think that this approach was too much, because in Dali, the unspoken rule for the past hundred years was that the Duan family would be the emperor and the Gao family would be the prime minister. More than 90 years ago, Gao's wise ancestor Gao's family once replaced Duan family as emperor, and his country's name was "Dazhong". Well, Gao Shengtai became the king of "Great China". However, Gao Shengtai's emperor only served for two years and returned the throne to Duan family. From then on, Duan family has always been the emperor and Gao family has become the prime minister.

The passage mentioned earlier clearly shows that the Gao family's people as prime ministers were decided by the Gao clan themselves, and the emperor could not decide. However, the competition within the Gao clan was very fierce, and many times they had to resort to the "martial election". In the eyes of the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty, the political ecology of the Dali Kingdom was simply a strange thing.

Well, the past ten years have been relatively quiet. My brother Gao Guanyin Miao has been in the prime minister for thirteen years, and my younger brother Gao Guanyin Zheng took over three years ago. After three years, this position has finally settled. But unfortunately, the Song Dynasty invaded at this time, and the Song Dynasty's offensive was unexpected. In just the blink of an eye, Jianchang Huichuan was lost.

Gao Guanyinzheng was furious and could not lose his plan to govern the government anymore. So Gao Guanyinzheng mobilized reinforcements and also took charge of the city, preparing to defend himself and defeat the Song army's attack.

To defend the government office, one must naturally rely on the natural danger of Jinsha River. If the Song army wants to attack the government office, of course, they have to cross the Jinsha River. However, all the ships in the Jinsha River were ordered to be burned by Gao Guanyinzheng. In addition, Gao Guanyinzheng also ordered to strengthen the walls and clear the fields. If this series of measures was arranged, Gao Prime Minister Gao believed that the Song army would have to go through a lot of trouble across the river. Maybe the Dali army could seize the opportunity to launch a "half-cross attack". Perhaps, it is unknown that the Song army could be defeated.

On the morning of that day, a team of scouts in Dali rode a short Yunnan horse and patrolled along the Jinsha River on a routine basis. They immediately found that something was wrong.

What are you planning to do on the other side!

I saw a large group of people on the opposite side being busy, hey! There were two monsters, which were emitting black smoke. Anyway, the scene on the opposite side was very big, and it was rumbling. The noise was too big. However, what's the use of these Song soldiers making such a big noise on the opposite side! OK! If you like to make noise, just make noise. If you can't cross the river, isn't it in vain? In the eyes of these Dali scouts, there is no point in making a boat, and no matter how you rush around the river, it's obvious that there is no ship on the river. Can Song Bing fly over?

When I thought of flying, I heard that there was a magical magic ball in the Song army that could bring people into the sky, but after saying that, with that thing, it was impossible for the army to cross the river.

So the scouts simply got off the horse and climbed up a slope to see the movements of Song Jun opposite him so that they could reply to their boss.

However, these Dali scouts who were watching the fun were immediately discovered by Song Bing opposite him. After a while, two black dots suddenly flew towards this side in the sky. In an instant, the two black dots came to their eyes and turned into a gray-colored thing with a thick wrist. No, no! It was not that the wrist was thick, but it seemed to be thicker than the ankles. When they wanted to tell how thick they were, the two things had fallen to the ground and exploded. Fortunately, the explosion was more than ten steps away, which scared the scouts to a great extent, but they didn't even hurt one of them.

But that was enough. A guy shouted: "Mom! The Song people's meteor bombs are powerful!" The Dali army had purchased "meteor cannons", so the mortar cannon shells were naturally understood as meteor bombs. Legend has it that the Song people's "meteor bombs" were all large and super large, which was not a little more powerful than the small "meteor bombs" that Dali ordered. Therefore, there were naturally some people in the scouts who were powerful.

Seeing two more black dots flying over from the other side of the river, the scouts no longer had the intention to watch the fun. They climbed onto the horses one by one and fled in a panic amid two explosions behind them.

The Song army on the east bank of the Jinsha River were actually basically engineers. At this moment, they had assembled two sections of trusses on the flat ground behind, and the engineers and soldiers by the river had also laid piles and assembled a simple floating bridge base.

The engineers transported the two sections of trusses to the riverside, and then installed them on the thick hinges of the base. After they were installed, the traction rope was hung on the trailer hooks of the two tractors. The tractor drove back and saw that the trusses, which had been connected to the left and right, slowly stood up. After passing the highest point, they slowly fell into the river. Under the control of the tractor traction rope, the trusses were slowly lowered and finally extended horizontally into the river.

Then a team of engineers set up steel pipes on two overhanging trusses in three or two. Well, it was the kind of steel pipes that were used to build scaffolding in later generations. After they were set up, another team of engineers quickly laid wooden boards on the steel pipes. After a while, the first floating bridge was built. Well, it looked like a simple dock that stretched into the river.

Next, engineers who specialize in installing truss piers stepped forward and began to raise truss piers like building blocks, like building blocks, like later tower crane standard sections. However, these truss piers are much smaller than the standard sections of later tower cranes, which are 80 cm long and forty centimeters square, and two people can easily install them. Every time one section is installed, it sinks into the water for a distance. As long as it does not face the river bed, it continues to install a new section until it penetrates deeply into the river bed and can no longer be inserted.

In this way, the first section of the pontoon bridge is declared completed, and then the construction work is repeated like the first section.

Yes, it is actually a mixed version of tower crane design and scaffolding design in later generations, but don’t say it, it is quite effective. This design is mainly contributed by Lin Lishi. When he produced counterfeit and shoddy steel products, he produced scaffolding steel pipes quite a lot. With years of experience in working with the construction industry, he easily learned from the technology of the construction industry in later generations. Strictly speaking, this design does not have any technical content, but it only uses a large amount of bolts and nuts. The price of bolts and nuts in this era was not cheap, but the Song Dynasty was not short of money, and there were only five sets at one time. This time, the army was equipped with two sets.

When Wu Xi stepped onto the floating bridge under construction, the floating bridge had been built about half of its length, and it was almost noon. It seemed that by the evening, the entire floating bridge should have been built.

Of course, the generals of Dali would not sit idly by. At this time, the brigade of Dali troops drove across the river. Even the incompetent general knew that the Song army must be prevented from building a floating bridge.

The more the pontoon bridge extends forward, the more it is within the "firing" range of Dali Army feather arrows.

However, when Dali soldiers rushed forward to launch cloud-like feather arrows to prevent the Song soldiers from building the floating bridge, the damn "large-sized meteor bomb" in the Song Dynasty formation began to exert its power. This time, it was not a two-shot two-shot shot, but a twelve shots. The Dali soldiers were killed and injured in the explosions. Even so, the Dali Army did not intend to retreat. Of course, the Dali Army had concerns at this time, and the formation had to be dispersed, and the feather arrows shot out became sparse, and the threat to the bridge building was naturally weak.

What made the Dali Army desperate was that the bridge-building engineers of the Song Dynasty could add a roof to the pontoon bridge. Not long after, wooden boards were spread out on the top, and the wooden boards were still flame-retardant. Even if the rocket was "fired" on it, it was useless. As for the front of the construction, a huge shield was erected there, with shields in front of the engineers guarding them and covering them with a roof cover. It can be said that the feather arrows of the Dali Army did not pose any threat to most engineers.

Despite this, the engineers who installed the bridge pier still had to work with feather arrows, and people would be injured and replaced from time to time. However, the protective power of Mao's enamel scales was really not blown. The engineers could basically insist on installing and sedimenting a bridge pier into place. After finishing, they might suffer a little injury. Then they replaced the new force and then continued to do it. It seemed that the speed was a little slower, and the floating bridge was built without any error.

When the pontoon bridge was about to approach the other shore, the Song army concentrated almost all the artillery fire to bombard the opposite side, leaving only a section in the middle, which was because they were worried that the shells would fall on the hard-built pontoon bridge.

Two hundred soldiers rushed up from the pontoon bridge, one of whom was equipped with three rifles. As soon as the shield was withdrawn, one thousand two hundred bullets were fired on the pontoon bridge, and a large area of ​​Dali soldiers on the opposite side fell down suddenly.

There were only two thousand soldiers sent to organize the bridge building. As a result, the Great Song Dynasty guns and cannons fired and almost one bridge was killed and injured in one go. This battle could not be fought. The remaining Dali army finally collapsed and rushed to escape.

The floating bridge soon landed on the other side, and then the army easily crossed the river, and no longer saw the defenders of Dali.

Wu Xi laughed, thinking that such a bridge building method is so powerful! Humph! Dali people are so beautiful! It is so funny to use the Jinsha River to block the Great Song Dynasty Heavenly Soldiers! Hehe, our Great Song Dynasty Heavenly Soldiers have magical technology, and they can still cross the river without a ship.--32133dsuaahhh29606047-->
