In Shangshuo City, Li Qin and Li Jingyan, as the main and deputy generals in the city, looked at Huo Quai's camp in the distance quite solemnly.

Li Jingyan said: "Except for the enemy general Le Jin who led his troops and horses to attack Shangshuo Pass a few days ago, the Han army never launched a siege again, but only sent troops to provoke and make noise. ”

Li Qin said with a smile: "At the beginning, Huo Qubing had attacked Shangshuo Pass, surrounded Shangshuo Pass for several months, and returned in vain, and today he also wants to let him return in vain!" ”

Li Jingyan reminded: "Third brother, don't be careless, after all, the opposite person is Huo Quai, who has gone deep into the desert!" Let's mainly hold him back and buy time for General Han..."

"How's that going? If you can defeat him once, you can defeat him a second time! If it weren't for His Highness's entrustment, I would have thought that I would go down to the city for a while, and whether this young hero was really so powerful! ”

Li Qin is proud of his martial arts, and he also doesn't take the world seriously.

Li Jingyan was injured in the battle with Liu De, and he also knew the strength of Liu De's generals, but Li Qin was his brother after all, and he didn't want to say anything too much, so he seemed too annoying.

I can only keep my mouth shut.

Li Qin then asked, "Where are General Han's soldiers and horses now?" ”

The General Han that Li Qin said was Han Wei, as long as Li Qin and Li Jingyan dragged Huo Qu's illness in Shangshuo Pass, Han Wei could go around to the back of Huo Qu's sick department and make dumplings directly from Huo Qu's sick department.

Therefore, the two members of the Li family want to let Huo Qubing see the hope of being able to break through the city, otherwise Huo Qubing will escape, and then Xun Da's plans will be in vain.

Moreover, Han Wei mobilized almost the entire Jinju soldiers and horses, except for several important cities and passes in Jinzhou, all other places were abandoned, and even Ma Teng and Li Ding** from the west did not pay attention.

This battle can be regarded as a decisive battle.

If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent.

Li Jingyan said: "It will take at least another month!" ”

"It's too slow! What if Huo Qu gets sick and runs away? Li Qin shook his head and said.

"That can't be helped!"

Li Jingyan also said: "After all, it will definitely take some time to gather soldiers and horses, and to go around to the rear of Huo Quai. ”

(ps: Han Wei can lead the troops around to the rear of Huo Quai, why does Huo Qubing have to die on Shuo?) One is the problem of time, it takes too long to bypass the past, and the logistics line is also relatively long, whether it is from the east or the west, Shangshuo Pass can send troops to attack the logistics of Huo Quai, and even send troops to attack Luanzhou, so the geographical location of Shangshuo Pass is very important and must be taken down.

The second is that Huo Quzhi was blocked in Shangshuo for the first time, and he wanted to get up where he fell for the first time.

In fact, the most important thing is that Shangshuo Pass controls the north gate of Jinju, and after taking it, it can be attacked and defended. ）

In the end, Li Qin said: "Huo Qu's sick department is a partial teacher, and the attack is mainly harassing, so it is understandable to stay at the door of our house but not move, Jingyan, you take a good look at them, don't let Huo Qu run away!" ”

"The last general commands!"

Li Jingyan gave up his hand, thought about it and said: "Third brother, I think we should still send more scouts, after all, there is still a small road that can lead to the back of Shangshuo, we must guard against it!" ”

"Path? Which path are you talking about? ”

Li Qin was about to go down the city wall, but after listening to Li Jingyan, he stopped and asked.

"It's those mountain roads of [Jiasu Mountain]!"

"The mountain roads in Jiasu Mountain are rugged and muddy, and the heavy snow has just passed, which is even more difficult to walk, and it is very easy to get lost, even the hunters in the forest can't walk, do you think the Han army can pass?"

Li Qin said, and then went down to the city, "If you really can't rest assured, send a scout to take a look..."

"Yes!"

Li Jingyan nodded helplessly.

Originally, Li Jingyan wanted to give up the idea of sending scouts, but after thinking about it, he still ordered a few scouts to investigate, after all, it is always good to be careful.

As Li Qin said, when Huo Quzhi and others came to Jiasu Mountain, they were embarrassed to find that the mountain road was very difficult to walk, because it was covered with heavy snow, and they couldn't even see the mountain road that could be traveled.

And the scouts sent by Li Jingyan also reported the same, and Li Jingyan then relaxed and concentrated on guarding Shangshuo Pass.

"Governor!"

Several generals looked at Huo Quai, Huo Qubing looked at the rugged and steep mountains in front of him, and said to the soldiers: "We are deeply favored by His Highness, and now the time has come for us to serve the country with our bodies!" ”

Huo Quzhi is a very adventurous person, Wei Yan and Chen Tang are the same, the towering cliffs can't stop their adventurous hearts!

Because the mountain road was difficult, Huo Qubing and others abandoned their horses, Huo Qubing selected 2,000 people from the 3,000 cavalry, brought enough dry food and arrows, and began to march to the mountains.

The remaining 1,000 men gave the 2,000 men all their clothing, food, and arrows, and quietly returned to the camp with all their horses.

After more than half a month, even the armor on Huo Quai's body was damaged, there were more than 100 people who froze to death and frostbite, and the food was basically eaten cleanly, all the soldiers ate tree bark, drank snow water to live, and even when chasing hares, two Han soldiers fell off the cliff and their bones were gone.

Although there is no end in sight, and contact with the outside world has long been severed, Huo Quzhi still maintains an optimistic attitude, although he has not personally appeased the soldiers, but as soon as the soldiers see Huo Quzhi, the whole person bursts out with a strong survival**, this is the power of example and hero, few generals have such a strong appeal.

"Report! Dudu, there are signs of wild boar activity found earlier, and not only one, but also a few little piglets! ”

A scout ran to Huo Quai's side and reported.

"Really? This is the endless road, tonight, we can all eat pork and drink broth! ”

Huo Quzhi said loudly to the soldiers.

The soldiers also roared excitedly.

Huo Qu picked up his spear and said to Wei Yan and the others: "One pig, two bears and three tigers, if this wild boar starts to go berserk, ordinary people can't deal with it, in order to prevent the soldiers from having fearless casualties, this wild boar will be handed over to a few of us to deal with!" ”

Chen Tang pulled the bowstring, put the helmet on the right, and said, "Let the governor send you!" ”

Two thousand people scattered, and finally found the traces of wild boars in a valley, more than 100 archers fired arrows in a volley, and instantly shot down two small wild boars, but it may be that the fur on the big wild boar is relatively thick, although the arrows are hanging on the wild boar, looking extremely scary, but in fact, the damage to the wild boar is not high.

But the wild boar was directly enraged, spotted the crowded place, and launched a charge.

And the position where the charge was launched was where Huo Qu's illness was.

The four hooves were wildly teasing, the branches of the ** and the heavy snow were directly thrown everywhere, and the archers didn't have time to shoot the second round, and the wild boar was about to hit Huo Quai.

Huo Quzhi changed his hand with the spear and muttered to himself, he didn't expect to fight with the wild boar one day!

The spear stabbed out!
