Chapter 351: Qingcheng Pass Victory
"Not good! The gates are open! Seeing that he was about to reach the city gate, Fei Wen found from a distance that the people blocking the gate behind the city gate had begun to disperse, and it seemed that they could not stop the momentum outside the gate, and the city gate was about to be knocked open.

With a loud shout, he sprang up from his horse, flew over the heads of many people, and struck at the heavy gate, which had opened a gap, and he kicked it back again, and slammed it shut.
"Go and help!" Yuan Shanjia was excited, and hurriedly ordered, she was so shocked that cold sweat came out, and her back was a little cold.
Qi Li and the others got the order, slammed the horse's buttocks, and drove the horse to gallop. "Let! Let! Let! ”
Behind the gates were mostly militiamen, that is, the inhabitants of the city.
When they saw Feven closing the city gates, they couldn't help but cheer twice. Seeing this, another team of people drove over and hurriedly got out of the way.
As soon as the inhabitants of the border pass come to war, they will organize into an army, which is more powerful than ordinary people in terms of physical fitness and personal quality.
And they have a natural awe of powerful people, so they all look at Fei Wen with awe-inspiring eyes.
However, they did not forget their duty to block the door, and just took time to take a look.
The sound of banging on the door outside didn't stop, and the whole door was shaking.
Yuan Shanjia's thick eyebrows were furrowed, the people inside couldn't stop it, and the people outside had already been defeated? Didn't hold on?
She was a little puzzled, and she couldn't help but have some doubts on her face.
Although this guard general Qin Wangfu is dead, the person who can become a deputy general should not be so useless, he can't even hold on these days, and he will be lost so quickly.
Yuan Shanjia dismounted and swept to the city tower with light skills.
Although Ran Zhu was slower, he also followed closely behind her.
Yuan Shanjia went upstairs and glanced down, the battle was in full swing, and the Yunguo had not yet been defeated.
The cyan armor is the soldiers of the Yun Kingdom, and the black armor is the soldiers of the Van Dan Kingdom.
The two countries are at war with each other, but the endless stream of soldiers from the Van Dan Kingdom actually came from the rear! From a distance, it is half more than the soldiers in Qingcheng Pass.
Qingcheng Pass has 2,000 elite soldiers and 8,000 general soldiers, totaling 10,000. It is more than enough to use these forces to protect the Van Dan Kingdom.
However, nearly 15,000 soldiers came from the Van Dan Kingdom, and there were even people coming from behind, as if they were ready to win by numbers.
Even if they can be equal now, the soldiers of the Cloud Kingdom are not iron-clad, and it is difficult to persevere.
There was an epidemic in the west of Yunguo, and a large number of people died, and the various cities near Qingcheng Pass, the city guards were also seriously insufficient, and it was difficult to support.
And Yuan Tian, who had the best chance to support, also disappeared halfway and failed to reach Qingcheng Pass.
Yuan Shanjia turned his gaze to the city gate, where there were about five hundred soldiers in black armor who were banging on the door with a giant log.
He is a soldier of the Van Dan Kingdom.
There are only scattered around them, about a hundred Yun Kingdom soldiers blocking them? There was no way to break up five hundred people.
The five hundred people, about a hundred people slammed the door with the giant log, and the rest surrounded the perimeter to protect, forming an extremely powerful protective line, and the one hundred people in Yunguo had no effect at all.
Seeing that so many people were attacking the city gate together, Yuan Shanjia predicted that if he couldn't kill these people, even if Fei Wen and several people were blocking it below, this city gate would be knocked open sooner or later.
Yuan Shanjia's thoughts moved, and he immediately asked Ran Zhu to go down and inform, "Let Qi Li bring twenty people up!" Shoot the leader to death, and the rest of the people shoot the people in front and behind separately, fighting for a single shot! ”
"Yes!"
Yuan Shanjia looked around, but found that there were only three or two kittens on the city tower, and these three people drew their knives and trembled slightly compared to Yuan Shanjia after Yuan Shanjia came up, as if they were frightened.
"Come here!" Yuan Shanjia ordered, his voice relatively gentle.
The three of them looked like ordinary militiamen, wearing such gray linen clothes, with yellow faces and thin muscles.
"Don't come here!" The three of them huddled together, and it seemed that they had regarded Yuan Shanjia as an enemy.
Yuan Shanjia was full of black lines, trying to make himself appear gentle, "I am a reinforcement sent by Jidan City, you come over to explain the situation to me, why are there only the two of you on it?" ”
She didn't understand a little, since the strength of the Yun Kingdom was less than that of the Van Dan Kingdom, why didn't she defend the city gate, but the whole army went out?
But......
She looked at the three of them, a little skeptical, did they really know?
The three people huddled together hesitated for a while, and finally one of them came out boldly.
"You guys really came to support from Jidan City?" The man's face was puzzled, a little tentative, and he didn't answer Yuan Shanjia's question.
Yuan Shanjia nodded, and he jumped up happily, "Great! There is salvation! There is salvation! ”
He danced with his hands, and even the other two showed the joy of escaping after the catastrophe.
"How many of you came? Hurry up and help General Xiao and them! I'm going to open the gates! Since the death of General Qin, the people of the Van Dan Kingdom have been attacking Qingcheng Pass relentlessly, and we have reported to the imperial court to ask for support, but no one has come.
And there is no food either, and the food in the city is basically exhausted. General Xiao couldn't do it, so he let the soldiers eat the last good meal and went out to fight with the group of dog thieves in the Van Dan Kingdom! ”
The yellow-skinned man said as he burst into tears. seems to admire that General Xiao very much.
Yuan Shanjia's eyes flashed, and he stopped him and said, "You can't open the city gate!" First of all, the gate is full of people from the Van Dan Kingdom, and once you open the city gate, it is not us who go out, but they who come in. ”
She pointed downstairs and let him see for himself how many people were surrounding her.
"Secondly, there are only thirty-five of us here this time, which is not as many as you think." Yuan Shanjia's words knocked that person into the abyss at once.
He couldn't believe it, he took a few steps back with a shocked face, and sat down, "You're lying!" ”
His voice was filled with desperation, clutching his head tightly, a little broken.
"I have no reason to lie to you. I only brought these people. Yuan Shanjia pointed to Qi Li and the others who were shooting the soldiers of the Van Dan Kingdom downstairs.
"Then what are you doing here? What's the use of coming here? Come here and give away a few more lives? The man yelled in pain.
When you think you have grasped hope, you find that you are grasping despair, and this kind of pain is unbearable for ordinary people.
Yuan Shanjia was silent, if there was a way, they would not come to these people. If it weren't for Daddy's disappearance, there wouldn't be such a scene now.
As Qi Li's arrows came out, the army that hit the city gate downstairs continued to decrease.
Their crowd was too dense, and even if they reacted, Qi Li and the others would be able to shoot one person with little need to aim.
Continuous screams rang out, telling of the loss of another person's life. The soldiers of the Van Dan Kingdom had no choice but to give up banging on the door and defend themselves.
It's a pity that none of them brought shields or helmets when they came to knock on the door, and only wore jet-black armor.
Qi Li and the others all shot at their heads, and as long as they hit, that person would definitely die.
"Damn it! Who exactly! Downstairs, a man from the Van Dan Kingdom yelled.
Yuan Shanjia fixed his eyes, who is this person? There was a difference between his armor and his surroundings, and he was seen jumping out of the city gate and shouting, and a vacuum appeared around him.
She looked at Qi Li, "Didn't the one who took the lead kill?" ”
Qi Li nodded, "Didn't kill, he was at the front, and he was basically in a dead angle at our angle, and it was difficult to shoot accurately to the head." And after I had shot the first arrow, he found out, and he cowered in front of him, blocking it with someone else's corpse. ”
But now is the chance!
He shot an arrow with his bow, and a sharp arrow flew out. Not only him, but also Junzi's arrows were aimed at him.
All at once, four arrows flew towards the shouting man.
Before the man could react, he was shot in the eye by an arrow from the army, which pierced through and fell to the ground.
Under normal circumstances, the person who leads the team to hit the city gate should be in the middle position, and only that position is the easiest to coordinate with the people in front and behind to control the giant tree.
But this time this person is strange, and he prefers to stay at the front. If it weren't for Qi Li seeing that his armor was a little special, different from ordinary soldiers, he wouldn't have noticed it at all.
The most strange thing is that he found that someone was sniping at them, and it was stupid enough to dare to rush out and shout.
What Yuan Shanjia didn't know was that this person was the brother-in-law of the eldest prince, a gentleman, and he came to the battlefield this time to gild.
Standing at the front is to be the first to rush into the city and grab a first credit.
Later, I found that someone was shooting my subordinates, and the anger in my heart came up, and I didn't do things at all. The people next to him stopped him and was stabbed a few times by him.
No, at this time, he was hit by an arrow, and no one cared about him. They all huddled together to defend themselves against bows and arrows.
"Go find oil and jars, smaller ones, and some linen cloth and fireweed." Yuan Shanjia turned his head to the three desperate people and commanded.
But the three of them only cared about squatting together and trembling, and they didn't care about Yuan Shanjia's words at all.
A trace of ruthlessness flashed in Yuan Shanjia's eyes, these people only have these abilities? Why are you still arranged to guard the castle tower?
"Ran Zhu, you go to the city and ask Uncle Fei and the people behind the city gate to find some fire oil, jars, linen cloth and fireweed."
She doesn't force those three people, there are so many people in the city, it's impossible to find no one, right?
"Yes!"
Yuan Shanjia turned his gaze back to the battlefield, the soldiers of the Yun Kingdom on the battlefield seemed to have a lot of casualties, but fortunately, the casualties of the Van Dan Kingdom were more serious, almost one person died in the Yun Kingdom, and two people died on their side.
It's all desperate! In this way, even if it is victorious, what is the benefit of the Van Dan Kingdom?
The Van Dan Kingdom is not large, and the number of people is not particularly large, this kind of desperate approach, even if they win the Yun Kingdom, their remaining remnants of the army are not enough to defeat the Yun Kingdom, but will weaken their national strength.
Unless there is some greater good tempting them.
Yuan Shanjia's eyes were deep, as dark as an abyss.
When Ran Zhu came back, she suddenly asked, "Ran Zhu, has there been an outbreak in the Van Dan country?" ”
Ran Zhu thought about it for a while, and judging from the news collected before, there was no outbreak of epidemic in the Vandan Kingdom, and even the drought did not cause them any great harm.
Her eyes flashed, and she was a little skeptical, so she replied, "There is no epidemic, and there seems to be someone behind them, and there is a drought on their side, but there seems to be no shortage of food." ”
"Didn't you?" Yuan Shanjia muttered, and there was some kind of guess in his heart.
Although the country is closer to the ocean, it does not mean that there will be no drought there, and when they do drought, there will even be seawater backflow, and most of the country's fresh water will become salt water, which is undrinkable.
As far as she knew, when there was a drought in previous years, the Van Dan Kingdom had to ask Yun Guo for help. But this year, no.
It seems that there are other countries that have reached out to the country of Van Dan.
Is it Dongguo? Or the state of Chu? Or Wu Guo?
Chu Rui is currently the crown prince of Chu State, and if Chu State really wants to do this, he should give her some news.
Before the appearance of Yuan Tian, the Wu State had to invade the Yun Kingdom every year, and the main reason was the shortage of food, so it shouldn't be it, they couldn't afford to supply so much food.
Then the biggest possibility is Dongguo.
Yuan Shanjia's mind came to the scene of meeting Dong Li Chong after the state banquet, and that person was really evil.
"Miss, the oil is here." Ran Zhu gently tugged at Yuan Shanjia's sleeve and pulled Yuan Shanjia's thoughts back.
Sure enough, Fei Wen came up with three people dressed in linen clothes and several large jars of fire oil. Fei Wen was holding a bunch of rough bottles and cans, "Childe, are these okay?" ”
"Yes." Yuan Shanjia said.
She asked Fei Wen to pour the fire oil into the small jar, and poured in some special medicinal powder made by Ran Zhu, then tore the linen cloth into strips, rolled the fire grass in the middle, and made a stopper to block the mouth of the jar.
In a few moments, a dozen canisters of fire oil were ready.
Yuan Shanjia asked Qi Li and others to tie the oil cans to their bows and arrows, and together with Fei Wenranzhu and the three ordinary people, they lit the oil cans one by one.
The bow and arrow flew out with a reddish-yellow spark.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of explosions resounded among the soldiers of the Van Dan Kingdom, accompanied by bursts of screams.
The army of five hundred people was blown apart in an instant, their defense was vulnerable, the armor on their bodies almost did not play any role, the dead were killed, the wounded were wounded, and there were less than a hundred people left.
The soldiers surrounding Yun Guo looked at it, and their eyes lit up.
Here's your chance!
Ignoring their own wounds, they took up their swords and rushed over, slaughtering the remnants of the soldiers who had been wounded by the explosion of the canisters, and the blood was pouring down the ground, and they succeeded in stopping the wanderers at the gates.
There are dozens of earth pits on the ground at the gate of the city, all of which are fried out of oil cans, which is a bit shocking to watch.
On the other side of the battlefield, the main general of the Van Dan Kingdom seemed to be frightened by the formation on this side, and retreated in a hurry, not even caring about the military flag, like a low tide, and quickly retreated to five miles away from Qingcheng Pass.
The military flag that fell to the ground made the soldiers of Yunguo stunned all of a sudden, and they were chopping it, when they suddenly ran away.
But if you can repel the enemy, they will win!
"Oh!" The cheers shook the earth and infected the militia in the city.
