083 Charcoal-grilled coalition forces

"What the hell is a brain disease, isn't it?"

After severely defeating the main force of the coalition army, he rested on the spot for three days, and all the defenders of Yucheng arrived, and Li Ling, with 50,000 soldiers and horses, decided not to wait any longer and marched directly to Hangu.

A mere 50,000 horses attacked the Hangu Pass, which the coalition had barely breached at the cost of 500,000 soldiers?

Li Ling is certainly not whimsical.

Hangu Pass is located at the mouth of the valley on the east side of Hangu, built according to the mountain, it is a one-sided fortress, of course, it is a heavy price to attack from the front, but now Li Ling's position is in the west of Hangu Pass, and Hangu Pass is almost meaningless.

However, after all, the terrain of Hangu is too narrow and long, and if you want to pass through Hangu, you must first seize the high ground on both sides of Hangu, and Li Ling cannot use cavalry to attack the mountain, so he can only wait for the defenders of Yucheng to come before he dares to act.

However, when he led his army to the mouth of the valley on the west side of Hanya, he was caught off guard by the scene in front of him.

The coalition army suffered heavy losses, broke all the way, and fled directly into the Hangu Pass, but the coalition army actually adopted the tactic of landfilling during the period when Li Ling was resting, and forcibly blocked the entrance to Hangu with debris such as mountains, rocks, trees, etc.

Looking at the entrance of Hangu, which had almost been filled in with a huge amount of sand and gravel, Li Ling was really speechless.

Not only Li Ling was dumbfounded, but almost all the soldiers widened their eyes, and they couldn't believe what a crazy commander could make such a decision.

"It seems that they plan to rely on the mountains on both sides to defend it, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to recapture Hangu Pass with the existing forces alone."

Meng Wu watched it over and over again, and in the end he could only come to such a helpless conclusion.

"Huan Qi and Xiong Qi, the two of you will lead the cavalry to reconnoiter along the mountain to see if there is a breakthrough, and if you find any enemy under the mountain, you will resolutely annihilate it."

Set up camp on the spot, and then arrange cavalry to reconnoitre, first to ensure the safety of the surroundings, and then to find a suitable breakthrough.

"Meng Wu, after nightfall, you immediately organize scouts to go up the mountain and see if you can get some useful information. Let's go back and order our troops to rest and recuperate, we may attack at any time. ”

It seems that this Chun Shenjun Huang Xie is not as unbearable as he thought before, and he still has a certain ability.

Originally, there were no fortifications at the mouth of the West Valley, as long as Li Ling rushed over, there was no need to seize the hills on both sides of the Hangu Valley, as long as the battle started, the cavalry could directly pass through the Hangu Valley and go directly to the Hangu Pass.

Now that Huang Xie has directly blocked the valley mouth, forcing Li Ling to attack the mountains on both sides with all his strength, the coalition forces are condescending, and it will be a little difficult for Li Ling at that time.

At midnight, the two of them formed a team, and Mengwu directly dispersed more than 100 teams to conduct reconnaissance at one time, striving to reconnoiter the largest range in the shortest possible time and find out the enemy's deployment as much as possible.

It wasn't until the early hours of the morning that these reconnaissance teams returned one after another, but the intelligence they brought back made Li Ling quite worried.

On the top of the hill, the coalition forces built a temporary wall, and at the same time dug a number of trenches and various traps, and in just a few days, a relatively tight line of defense had been built.

After integrating the information, Li Ling and the generals looked at it again and again, but they still didn't find a location that could be used as a breakthrough.

Huang Xie's means of defense was very simple, that is, the troops were completely spread along the line of the mountain, evenly dispersed on the entire line of defense.

Strictly speaking, this kind of completely balanced defense line actually means that there are loopholes everywhere, but at this moment, Huang Xie has an absolute advantage in troops, and it has become a solid defense line.

"Order the troops to be ready for battle, launch an attack at dawn, and go up the hill along both sides of the valley mouth, with 10,000 soldiers on the left side of the valley, and all the rest on the right side."

"Why?"

"Boss, this can't be fought at all!"

"Let's wait for reinforcements to arrive."

When the information was summarized and sent to the front for some discussion, everyone did not expect that Li Ling actually gave the order to prepare for an attack, which was a bit too abrupt.

"Don't wait, just get ready as I say!"

With the puzzled generals, they can only choose to leave, this is a military order, Li Ling holds the tiger talisman in his hand, and Meng Wu and they have to obey the order.

"It seems that some extraordinary measures are still needed, hey, every time you fight, you almost need to empty your points, when will you have some surplus food."

As soon as everyone left, Li Ling immediately took out his tablet.

......

"You keep up, keep up, you must ensure the safety of the boss!"

At dawn, Li Ling only took one person to carry a box of ammunition, and he left the camp with a mortar and went straight to the valley.

Seeing that Li Ling was in danger alone, Wang Jian hurriedly sent ten people with shields to follow.

"Here it is."

Walking to a place less than 100 meters away from the valley mouth, Li Ling finally stopped.

"No, can you get out of the way for me? Don't all revolve around me? ”

As soon as he stopped here, preparing to install the mortar base, he didn't expect that the people sent by Wang Jian immediately surrounded Li Ling and formed an impermeable wall with shields.

Let these people retreat beyond a safe distance, Li Ling adjusted the angle, took out a killer ***, and put it directly into the barrel!

Bang~~

With a muffled sound, **** rushed directly into the night sky!

Without waiting for the shell to land, Li Ling immediately adjusted the muzzle pointing again, and another shell shot out!

Rumble~~~

Rumble~~~~

The explosions were heard one after another, and the killing and wounding *** instantly ignited some improvised fortifications of the coalition forces, and there was chaos in the coalition camps on both sides of the valley.

Twenty **** rounds were fired in a row, ten on each side of the valley.

There was a sea of fire above the entire canyon, and many coalition troops panicked, and even rolled down the cliff directly!

"Almost!"

Bang~~

Another shell rose into the air, but this time Li Ling didn't shoot out the killing ***, but the flare!

The flares hit directly over the canyon, and with the raging flames brought by ***, everything on the battlefield was hidden.

Wang Qian, who had already made all the preparations, immediately ordered the whole army to attack, and rushed up the hillside to the top of the mountain.

"No, it's not a way to go on like this, this is the only way to hit Hangu Pass, if you really want to gallop the Central Plains in the future, you can't follow the troops wherever they go!" It seems that it is necessary to cultivate a trustworthy descendant army, so that they can master the use of firearms, and save themselves so much trouble. ”

Seeing that the army had already rushed to the top of the mountain, Li Ling, who was standing at the mouth of the valley, suddenly had an idea, for the first time, he wanted to form an army equipped with thermal weapons!
