"General Jia, what did you say? Now open the walled door? All the Wei army officers thought that they had misheard, and hurriedly reminded: "General Jia, now open the gate of the village, the Zhou army will inevitably rush into the Black Wind Village!" ”

"Yes! If you want to open it, you should open it early, and you can save Vice Admiral Hu back! Wouldn't it be self-defeating to increase the strength of the defense and open the gate of the fortress now? ”

"General Jia, I can't help it! This is very inappropriate! ”

Among the generals of the Wei army, there was a sudden voice of opposition.

But Jia Xiong was unmoved, but glanced at Niu Jinda.

Niu Jinda understood, so he led the army to the gate of the village.

Among the officers of the Wei army, there were immediately fine people who felt that something was not quite right, and sent people to follow, but saw that Niu Jinda was ordering someone to open the gate of the village. They were immediately frightened and hurriedly stepped forward to stop them.

Seeing this, Niu Jinda's eyes immediately flashed with a fierce light, and he killed General Wei with a knife. And the death squad members around him, seeing that the boss had made a move, immediately picked up their weapons and killed the Wei army.

Suddenly, the Wei army at the gate of the fortress was immediately killed and wounded, and flesh and blood flew everywhere.

Because the group of daredevils led by Niu Jinda are all martial arts masters selected from various units of the Zhou army, they are the elite of the elite of the Zhou army. And because they came prepared, they were all dressed in fine iron armor and held Damascus black steel knives, and they were even more merciless when they struck. Therefore, the Wei soldiers who came to stop it will soon be killed and defeated.

After a while, only to hear a "squeak", the gate of Heifeng Village was finally opened, and the Zhou army rushed in, relying on superior forces, and quickly defeated the Wei army that came to meet at the city gate, and then advanced to the depth.

At this time, Jia Xiong swept the Wei generals around him who were already dead, and Fang said in a deep voice: "Brothers, the current situation in Great Wei has long been exhausted, and everyone probably knows that Li Mi will not last long. And everyone has been suffering on the mountain for a long time, and there is indeed no future for this fallen king, and it is only a matter of time before the Wagang army perishes. Jia has decided to surrender to the king of Zhou and join the Zhou army, I don't know what your brothers think? ”

In the Black Wind Village, the generals of the Wagang Army who were scared like dirt only then understood that the feelings of General Jia had already secretly descended to Zhou, no wonder Vice General Hu was not allowed to enter the village just now, but then after the Zhou army was killed, he forcibly opened the gate of the village, pretending to meet the enemy, but in fact let the Zhou army in.

At this time, in the midst of shouts and killings, the Zhou army's brigade had already ascended the wall from the village and controlled the guard tower and fortifications of the wall.

Armed with crossbows and spears, they aimed at a group of Wei officers and shouted loudly. It scared all these people like dirt. Some of the timid even weakened their legs and involuntarily knelt down.

Of course, there are also some die-hard loyalists of Li Mi who insist on refusing to surrender. And beside them, there are also some Wei soldiers who are still resisting stubbornly. It's just that they were soon drowned in the killing of the Zhou army.

At this moment, Cheng Biting Jin's big eyes like copper bells couldn't help but flash a trace of anger.

He raised the Xuanhua axe in his hand and waved it violently: "I will count it, and if I don't put down my weapon, my Great Zhou soldiers will be killed immediately!" No mercy! ”

With that, he began to shout, "One! ”

"Two!"

……

"Don't kill us! We surrender! We surrender! ”

Seeing that the stubborn and stubborn companions had fallen in a pool of blood, those Wei officers and soldiers who were still hesitating saw that the general trend had gone, and the Black Wind Village had been completely controlled by the Zhou army. And the archers of the Zhou army surrounding him had already raised the beaded crossbow in their hands and aimed it at themselves. When faced with the choice between a good death and a good life, they finally chose to live. The big knife and spear in his hand suddenly fell to the ground with a "screech......

After conquering the Black Wind Village, the Baishui Walled City has also been exposed to the might of the Zhou army, Niu Jinda and Cheng Yanjin and others led the army to kill from the rear of the White Water Village, and attacked Luo Cheng, Qin Qiong and others from the front. Soon uprooted the outlying strongholds of the Wei army and attacked the city of Baishui.

And Wang Bodang, who knew that he was in Jia Xiong's dadang, was with Xu Shiji, and he made a heart and resisted desperately. However, under the siege of the enemy's superior forces, especially after the defenders found themselves in retreat, they quickly lost their fighting spirit, and even if they fought bravely, they were powerless to recover the defeat when their morale was lost.

Although the walls of Baishui Village are solid, the terrain is dangerous. But helpless has become a lonely city, after being besieged by the superior forces of the Zhou army for more than a month, the whole village has run out of food, and the soldiers and civilians in the village are fed on bark and grass roots. In the end, even the living can only feed on dead corpses and rats. Many people did not die in battle, but starved to death.

Finally, two months after the fall of Heishuizhai, Baishuizhai also fell. Fortunately, Wang Bodang and Xu Shiji had already left themselves behind, escaped from the tunnel, and returned to Wagang Village.

At this time, Yuming personally led 50,000 Zhou troops to Li Mi's last stronghold, Wagangzhai, and prepared for the final battle to destroy Wei.

……

Wagangzhai is in the deepest part of the Wagang Mountain Range. The mountains here are steep, steep, steep, cliffs and streams, and the terrain is very treacherous.

Six years ago, Zhai Rang, who had fallen into the grass, built a village here in the mountains as a stronghold for his resistance to the Sui army.

And the Wagang army also very much hopes that they have a solid cottage to settle their families, so that they can fight outside with confidence. Therefore, it was the mobilization of the whole mountain that year, and all the Wagang soldiers and civilians participated in the construction and expansion. It took them two years to build the rock.

The terrain of Wagangzhai is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Behind its village, there is a large gentle hillside valley, in which there are herds of cattle and sheep, and piles of grain and grass. Goats and wild animals can be grazed everywhere on the slopes. There are also countless fertile fields in the valley, which can be self-sufficient.

If such a place is only besieged but not attacked, it will not be a problem to defend it for several years. It is impossible to let the defenders die through a long-term siege like Baishui Village.

Since the Black Wind Village and the White Water Village have been lost one after another, Li Mi was frightened like a frightened bird, digging trenches around Wagang Village, reinforcing defensive bunkers, and laying a large number of traps outside the village, intending to make it an impregnable last fortress.

He can be regarded as open-minded, knowing that if he wants to surrender, the best chance is to surrender when the Zhou army first starts to attack him, so that there may be a decent ending, even if Yuming refuses to use him, he will inevitably be treated well, so that he can be a rich man in peace and security, and live in his old age.

But he didn't do this, but insisted on resisting to the end. In this way, even if you are willing to surrender now, I am afraid that it will be difficult to gain Yuming's trust and peace of mind.

I'm afraid that even if I agree to him surrender, I will be very jealous. It won't be long before Zhou Jun will announce to the outside world, saying that he Li Mi died of illness or committed suicide.

Therefore, Li Mi had no choice but to bite the bullet and decided to fight to the death with Yuming.

……

However, when you want to enter Wagangzhai from the camp where the Zhou army is stationed, there is a narrow valley in the middle, where the Wei army has already laid a heavy ambush. If the Zhou army entered the valley, the Wei army would push boulders down from the mountain walls on both sides, and at the same time shoot a dense rain of arrows, leaving people with nowhere to escape.

As early as after Yu Ming conquered Heifeng Village, he began to organize people to try to attack Wagang Village. It is still the shield soldiers who fight in the front. The shieldmen advanced with their steel shields aloft, covering the archers and pikemen from the shields behind them.

However, even these huge square shields that are one person high cannot resist the huge stones the size of a table thrown down by the Wei army from the top of the mountain, no matter how big the shield is, such a heavy boulder will definitely not be able to resist it, and it can only be the end of the shield being broken and people killed.

This valley suddenly became a hindrance for the Zhou army, and Yu Ming commanded the army to attack for several days, but he could not break through the enemy's defense. Seeing the heavy losses of the troops, they had to temporarily stop the offensive and let the soldiers rest for a few days.

In the future, Yu Ming and Hu Sizheng, Cheng Yanjin, Niu Jinda, Luo Cheng, Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin and other generals stood on the hillside not far from Wagangzhai, looking at the misty and dangerous valley in front of them, and frowned.

After a while, the seven sat down on a boulder on the hillside.

Yu Ming sighed at this time: "Brothers, the terrain of this Wagang Village is dangerous...... The road in this valley is narrow and very long, and it is really a one-man pass, and it is impossible to open it. If you want to besiege it without attacking it, as it did in the attack on Baishui Village, and let it be cut off from food and grass within a few months, it is simply impossible to do it. On the back mountain of this Wagang village, there are many livestock in fertile land, and there are many wild beasts, fish and shrimp to catch. Food is basically self-sufficient. Moreover, we must also free up our hands to deal with the possible attacks of Du Fuwei, Wang Shichong, Li Yuan and others, and we can't always lead the army here to besiege Li Mi. As soon as we attacked, in more than half a year, we crisscrossed the Central Plains, which can be said to be invincible. Now there is only this last fortress left, and it is difficult to get through! ”

Qin Qiong also sighed at this moment: "Yes! According to the current casualties of the enemy's troops. In fact, there are not many Wei soldiers in Wagangzhai, I am afraid that there are no more than 20,000 at most, which is only one-fifth of our army. If we can really attack the village, we rely on the superior forces, take turns to attack, and use human lives to pile up, maybe we can attack the wall, after all, the quality of the Wei army's soldiers and equipment are far inferior to our army. But the biggest problem now is that we can't get through this valley at all, and we're kept out of it...... As long as this valley can be passed smoothly, the subsequent attack will be smooth sailing. ”

After hearing this, Luo Cheng asked Yuming with some puzzlement: "King Zhou, have you ever tried to recruit Li Mi?" I think that Li Mi is already exhausted and can't turn over. If our army can ensure the lives of his entire family, is it possible for this person to surrender? ”
