Chapter 182: What Is He Going to Do?

Qiu Jianhan was very happy: "Yunhou Guanshan has traveled thousands of miles to help, which is really a great help to us! ”

Qiu Jianhan knew Yun Hou's true identity very well, and Yun Hou came here, almost as if His Majesty had arrived here!

No matter what decision Qiu Jianhan makes, as long as Yun Hou is stationed here, afterwards, even if there is any mistake, Yun Hou will have his own shoulders to deal with.

On the royal side, there will never be any suspicions.

This is not what the old marshal thinks too much, but it is a means of self-preservation when necessary.

After all, the so-called generals who are not subject to the orders of the foreign monarchs, the merits cover the masters, and the kings and ministers are suspicious of such things, which are the primary scruples of the generals, and they have to be guarded against, and they cannot be prevented.

Although Marshal Qiu is very sure that His Majesty will never doubt himself, he must always beware of villains in the court!

If you are defeated, everything will be over, and if you are victorious, there will always be people who want to pick peaches and jump out.

This point, no matter how holy the monarch is, or how prosperous the world, there will be no shortage of such people!

And at this moment, the war drums on the opposite side suddenly sounded like an earth-shattering sound, and the mournful sound of the horn also pierced the sky at the same time!

The sudden sound was deafening, and the ground shook because of it!

"Dongxuan attack!"

After hearing this reasonable but unexpected news at first glance, Fu Baoguo was a little stunned.

In the face of such an impregnable Xiongguan, why did the world-famous handsome Han Shanhe launch an attack in broad daylight at such a time?

Lost his head?

Or maybe you took the wrong medicine?!

But no matter how doubtful you are, Hanshanhe's attack is already in front of you!

Fu Baoguo rushed to the city almost in one breath, and as far as his eyes could see, he couldn't help but gasp.

I saw the dense Dongxuan army, all carrying long ladders as dense as trees, rushing all over the mountains!

What made Fu Baoguo's heart palpitate even more was that he also saw that all the Dongxuan Black Horsemen were dispatched, just like a black dragon, swimming at high speed, shaking his head and tail, ready to bite the enemy fiercely at any time.

What makes Fu Baoguo feel even more strange, or puzzled......

There are also a considerable number of people holding long strips of rolling logs and large gravel stones.

Isn't that a tool that can only be used to defend the city?

And what are the people running with half a long ladder doing?

Do you need these things for the siege?

Hanshanhe's attack isn't here to be funny, is it?!

The front army of Hanshanhe pressed forward at the same time, rumbling until the middle of the battlefield, and the 200,000 black horsemen who attacked this time were divided into two teams, and the left and right were like two big pincers, looking at the battlefield!

"According to the arrangement of the day before yesterday, the archers of the whole army are waiting!"

Qiu Jianhan's voice came from behind.

The old marshal's voice was unusually heavy: "At present, only the archers need to move, and the main purpose of Hanshanhe this time is not to attack the city!"

"Not here to siege the city?"

Fu Baoguo was even more puzzled when he heard this.

But the next moment, he understood.

Reality told him the answer!

The Dongxuan soldiers who were gradually approaching the Iron Bone Pass were the first to buckle the pass, and their steps were very neat, because each of them was holding a huge shield in one hand, covering the whole body tightly, and the other hand was carrying a long ladder held by several people.

And the next step for this team to reach the edge of the Iron Bone Pass is to put the long ladder up to the city wall, and then turn around and go, never stop!

Seeing such a reality, Fu Baoguo was still puzzled and puzzled, what is going on? The ladders have been set up, and they have all arrived at the edge of the city, so they will not attack the city?

Is this another form of retreat?!

"Release the arrows!!" Qiu Jianhan gave an order, and ten thousand arrows were fired at the top of the city.

The arrows were obviously aimed at the soldiers who set up the ladders, but the Dongxuan army on the opposite side was obviously prepared for this, and the shields in everyone's hands were several sizes larger than usual, and the arrows in the rain did little damage, and only a few unlucky ghosts were shot by arrows when they put down the ladder and died under the city.

As the city walls beneath the city walls, there were more and more rolling logs and long ladders, piled up high, and the situation became more and more strange.

Under a close look, Fu Baoguo found that the long ladder used in this attack on Dongxuan was not a cloud ladder, but a long ladder, and the highest placement position was about a foot and a half away from the city, and the people in the city basically had nothing to do with these long ladders.

Although some of the clever soldiers had already pulled out the flagpole and led it to the bottom of the city wall, knocking down some of the long ladders, more long ladders were only a few zhang long, only at the middle height of the city wall, and even the flagpole was already beyond the reach of the whip.

In this way, the things that the Dongxuan army piled up under the city wall gradually rose high and dense, and at a rough look, it was like a gentle slope!

Qiu Jianhan gave another order, and the five thousand jade Tang iron cavalry roared and rushed out of the city gate.

"In any case, we can't let these things take root under the walls and destroy them all for me!"

Seeing that the Yutang Iron Cavalry was dispatched, the black cavalry on the other side divided a team of men and horses almost at the same time, rushing over and intercepting strongly!

When the enemy meets again, the two sides will naturally start fighting.

Most of the Dongxuan troops still didn't care about this situation, as if they didn't see it, they only cared about transporting supplies to the city walls, and later, even thatch, dry branches and other things were thrown here.

"It's ...... Want to attack with fire?!" Fu Baoguo was dumbfounded: Is this useful?

"Fire attack, of course...... Moreover, this is only the first step in the countermeasures of the cold mountain river......" Qiu Jianhan looked at the tragic battle between the black knight and the iron knight under the city with worry, and sighed deeply.

"Han Shanhe is worthy of being a veteran of the battlefield, and it is indeed ...... I thought of this way. ”

"The most extreme situation is about to begin, I wonder if the Iron Bone Pass can really hold on for a month?!"

......

A few moments later, the Dongxuan soldiers who had left all the things they had brought behind hurriedly withdrew, and the battle between the iron cavalry and the black cavalry over there was still a struggle...... A loud trombone suddenly sounded in the Dongxuan military camp.

A shrill voice suddenly shouted, "Ignite the fire!"

With a bang, the archers in the Dongxuan army had already prepared, and immediately lit the arrows that had been soaked in cotton wool oil on the arrows on the strings.

The next moment, whoosh ......

Countless rockets, instantly obscuring the entire sky, flew towards this side.

Rumble!

A fire burst into flames under the city walls!

The sudden rising heat wave scorched Fu Baoguo's face for a while, and he actually felt like he was on the edge of the sea of fire.

However, Fu Baoguo was still puzzled by Dong Xuan's move and Han Shanhe's strategy: "What is the use of such a fire attack? In the face of such a fire, we only need to withdraw from the city and avoid it a little, but how can Dong Xuanfang not step over the wall of fire to attack! If they are reluctant, with the current fire, they can only burn themselves to death first!?"

Qiu Jianhan sighed: "To serve the country and be a general, you must not only know the soldiers, but also know the time and place...... There are many more things that need to be known. ”

Fu Baoguo's faint feeling of uneasiness in his heart suddenly increased, could it be that he really missed something important: "What? I don't know anything?"

"In fact, this arson is only the first means of Hanshan River, and after that, the Dongxuan army will continue to get burning things under the city wall......"

Qiu Jianhan sighed: "The Iron Bone Pass is known as not breaking the Xiong Pass, in addition to being impregnable and indestructible, the favorable atmosphere of this place is also a key to the undefeated city of this pass, no matter whether it is flooded and fire, it is difficult for any offensive to work! ”

"And this water poured down, although it seems that the entire city has been smelted into one, and it is becoming more and more indestructible, but at the same time, it has also caused considerable hidden dangers...... While the water condenses into ice, forming a thick layer of ice, there are also gaps between the stones of the city walls...... These gaps are stretched even bigger. ”

"When the ice melts in the spring of the following year, the ice melt will of course leave and return to the ground...... But the sturdiness of the walls has also been lost. Even, there may be a crumbling situation......"

"And Han Shanhe's move is to accelerate this process again, if you can't stop the fire, when the flames will be completely frozen, it will be the time for the real end of the Iron Bone Pass! At that time, it only takes one attack to make the original defective place collapse, or even, or more than one place will collapse!"

"So this ice city's strategy is just a measure to quench your thirst by drinking a donkey, but Hanshanhe is still trying to speed up the time of the poison attack and accelerate it to the greatest extent......"

Qiu Jian Han said: "Now, do you understand?"

Fu Baoguo's face turned pale, and he was no longer calm and calm in the past: "This ......"

"Extinguish the fire!"

Qiu Jianhan sighed.

A large amount of water that had been prepared for a long time, and the water flow of countless white flowers, rushed down the city, all fell into the burning fire, tens of thousands of people poured water at the same time, and there were several inexhaustible wells in the iron bone pass, but after a stalemate for a while, the monstrous fire was quickly contained, and only the remaining black smoke rose up.

At the head of the city, the thick water vapor stirred up by the heat and cold almost completely enveloped the entire city!

As the temperature drops rapidly, the ice, which had been burned by the fire, begins to condense again.

Fu Baoguo looked over, scratched his head and said, "Yes, as long as we extinguish the flames, everything will be restored." ”

Qiu Jianhan said lightly: "How can it be restored to its original state? Look below! You have me by your side now, how can you lose your usual calmness, as a general, the first thing is that the big mountain collapses in front of you and the color remains unchanged,"

Fu Baoguo looked down and saw that the long ladders that had not yet burned clean, especially those rolling logs and stones, were all piled up under the city wall, and as far as the eye could see, they had risen to a height.

As the flames were extinguished, a continuous stream of cold water poured down, and in addition to the bursts of white smoke rising, some of the edges had begun to freeze.

What a big lump!

Fu Baoguo seemed to understand something, and looked at the uplift slope in a daze.
