The ghost of the stone mouth is sad.

The most dangerous section of the road here is the rock-mouth, the left side is the towering cliff, the right side is the bottomless ditch, the winding mountain road, just like a jade belt of the mountain, inlaid between the thousand-foot cliff and the abyss, the narrowest part of the mountain road, but only a few feet wide, can only allow one person and one horse to pass.

Stepping on this road is enough to make people frightened, dizzy, and the bottomless ghost stream, once it falls, it is enough to fall to pieces.

The Wei army's advance speed in Jiashikou is not slow, in the early month, the Wei army successively broke through several camps of the Wu army, and advanced more than 20 miles, but when it reached the Guichou Stream, the attack was obviously delayed, and for more than half a month, the Wei army was blocked by the Guichou Stream, and there was no progress.

Zhuge Ke took advantage of the favorable terrain of the Ghost Sorrow Stream to block the Wu army, and he concentrated all the elites of the Danyang soldiers in the Ghost Sorrow Stream, waiting for work, no matter how fierce the Wei army launched, the Wu army was immovable, and could not cross this natural danger.

Previously, in the front section of Wuqiangkou and Jiashikou, Zhuge Ke only sent a small part of the army to block the Wei army in echelons, not to hold on, but to delay the attack of the Wei army, although the Wu army also paid the price of some casualties, but successfully delayed the Wei army for a month, so that the Wei army was exhausted and morale plummeted.

The hardships of mountain warfare are naturally self-evident, the Wei army was very strong at the beginning of the battle, but after more than a month of fighting, the exhaustion has been revealed, coupled with the Wu army's tenacious defense in the Guichou Stream, so that the Wei army is difficult to move an inch, and morale is low.

Even Sima Yi, who had always been calm and calm, was frowning at this time, and he couldn't think about it, so he had to order the Wei army to launch a strong attack, take the Ghost Chou Stream as soon as possible, and open up the Jiashi Pass.

Today's main attack is the general Qin Yuan, who led the army with a shield on his head, holding a spear, lined up in a long line, and worked hard to attack forward.

The side is the cliff, and the front is like rain before the chaos, even if there is a shield protection, can not be completely covered to live, occasionally after the Wei soldiers are hit by the arrow, the center of gravity is unstable, falling under the cliff, the sound of its screams is spread in the valley, the aftermath is endless, and the smell is creepy.

This kind of terrible scream before dying does make people's scalps tingle and chill, this abyss, so far, I don't know how many Wei soldiers' corpses have been buried, and countless people have died in the stream.

Not only ordinary soldiers, but even the leader Qin Yuan trembled in his heart, he secretly looked at the abyss only a foot away from the soles of his feet, the clouds were shrouded in mist, and the bottom was not visible.

Qin Yuan's face turned a little pale, he swallowed his saliva vigorously, moistened his dry throat, although he was already timid, but thinking about Sima Yi's strict military law, he had to work hard to charge forward, and it was better to die on the battlefield than to die under the sword of military law.

Just before they approached the Wu army's position, there was only a few dozen zhang away, and suddenly the Wu army came out, the Wei army obviously did not have enough psychological preparation, and was killed by the Wu army in a burst, the formation was chaotic, Qin Yuan couldn't resist the enemy at a glance, so he could only retreat backwards.

It was the Danyang soldiers of the Wu army who launched the counter-charge, fierce and brave, and the Wei soldiers lost their armor and broke up in embarrassment.

In terms of individual combat ability, the Danyang soldiers are indeed unmatched, in this kind of narrow place, the combat power of the Danyang soldiers can almost be exerted to the extreme, and the Wei soldiers who are good at using the battle array cannot give full play to their own strengths at all, and the Danyang soldiers can only be at a disadvantage when they fight alone.

What's more, the Danyang soldiers are on the top of the mountain to recuperate and recuperate, once they fight, the dragon is fierce and the momentum is like a rainbow, how can it be that the exhausted Wei soldiers can resist.

The battle on the top of the mountain was almost overwhelming, and even though the Wei soldiers had a numerical advantage, they were still overwhelmed, and they were slaughtered all over the field.

The Danyang soldiers killed and retreated the Wei army, but they did not chase after them, and the Wei soldiers who retreated at the defeat laughed, mocking the incompetence of the Wei army to their heart's content.

The Wei army did not choose the road, and on the way to retreat, many people fell off the cliff and died without a place to be buried.

Sima Yi looked at it at the bottom of the mountain, his face was iron-blue, and he hadn't fought a battle before, but such a defeated attack was indeed unprecedented.

"Bring Qin Yuan, who leads the army, to see the governor!" Sima Yi flicked his sleeves and turned around and returned to the temporary tent on the front line.

Qin Yuan retreated with blood on his face, and when he had just wiped the blood with the sleeve of his robe, the lieutenant officer had already stood in front of him and told him to go to meet the Metropolitan Governor immediately.

Qin Yuan walked into the big tent nervously, Sima Yi was sitting there precariously, the generals were standing on the side, Qin Yuan just stepped forward to give a salute, and before he could speak, Sima Yi broke off and shouted: "Someone, push Qin Yuan out of the camp gate and behead the public!" ”

Qin Yuan's head exploded, he saw Sima Yi's iron-blue face, and knew that it would be difficult to escape punishment today, but he didn't expect Sima Yi's punishment to be so severe, he actually wanted to cut off his own head, Qin Yuan suddenly lost his soul and collapsed to the ground.

Hu Zun is Qin Yuan's boss, and when he saw this, he immediately stepped forward and said: "Metropolitan Governor, although Qin Yuan was defeated and lost his military prestige, he also asked the Metropolitan Governor to spare his life and allow him to make meritorious contributions before the battle." ”

The generals also pleaded for Qin Yuan one after another.

Sima Yi snorted heavily and said, "If it weren't for the intercession of the generals, I would definitely behead you today." However, although the death penalty is forgiven, the living crime cannot be escaped, and when someone comes, he will be dragged out of the camp gate and whipped fifty times, as a respectful example. If you can't take the ghost stream tomorrow, the two sins will be one, and your dog's head will be beheaded! ”

Qin Yuan knelt down and thanked the governor for his grace, and two wolf-like Wei soldiers had already set him up, dragged him out of the big tent, and tied him to the pillar at the camp gate.

The executioner was a strong man with a big waist and a full face, Qin Yuan was stripped of his leather armor, revealing his bare back, and the executioner was carrying a long whip shaped like a rattlesnake, the whip was slightly black and purple because it was soaked in blood all the year round, he walked forward expressionlessly, and a whip was slammed on Qin Yuan's back.

The whip sound was unusually loud, and Qin Yuan grinned in pain, but he gritted his teeth and held back, and did not make a sound.

Apparently this is a professional executioner, and the three lashes are drawn down, without the slightest deviation, and they all fall on the same part. These three whips also have a name: the first whip is called skin opening, the second whip is called flesh, and the third whip is called blood flow. Three whips for a group, each three whips, then change a piece of flesh under the whip, never repeat, generally thirty whips, the whole back has been unable to find a piece of intact flesh.

This whipping caused a large number of onlookers, and the bloody scene made people tremble to watch.

However, Qin Yuan was a tough guy, and he was given fifty lashes, but he didn't say a word.
