Right Beiping, Zhang Jie's army set out from Jixian County to right Beiping to meet Wei Yan and Wang Zhi.

Wang Zhi had already led 5,000 men and horses to Youbeiping first, and he was much closer from Bohai to Youbei than Zhang Jie from Yecheng to Youbeiping. Wei Yan personally went to pick up Zhang Jie outside the city, this time Wei Yan knew that the opportunity for meritorious service had arrived, Zhang Jie promised him last time to let him be the pioneer of Pingliao, in the conference hall, Zhang Jie said: How is the chief Wen preparing?

Wei Yandao: Since the last time Gongsun Chan ran away, he has not sent troops to Youbeiping, but Gongsun Chan has nearly 10,000 horses stationed at the foot of Jieshi Mountain, and intends to defend Jieshi Road. The last general had sent many spies to investigate, and Gongsun Zhan built a camp wall at a high level, and captured many people to work as coolies. Yan has never been to this mountain, but I heard that this mountain is very famous, and Qin Shi Huang has been there.

Frustrated teaching: If I am not mistaken, this mountain is called Jieshi Mountain, after Qin Shi Huang climbed Jieshi to seek immortals, this mountain's fame increased greatly. Later, many emperors followed his example, and also wanted to absorb immortal energy and live forever by worshipping Jieshi.

I went to Emperor Xiaowu from Mount Tai, patrolled the sea in the east, went to Jieshi Mountain, and built "Han Wutai" on the top of the mountain to pray for immortals. Therefore, the top of this mountain Sendai is also known as Hanwutai.

Zhang Jie said: It seems that we also have to learn from the First Emperor!

Okay, let's break through Gongsun Zhan's camp first, and then go to Jieshi Mountain to see if there are any immortals at the bottom. smiled, but I guess there are no immortals, otherwise Qin Shi Huang would not have died on the way out of the patrol. Wen Chang, you will lead the army to set off first, and we will arrive later, no!

The army drove very slowly on the muddy road for several days before reaching Jieshi, this place is Liaoxi County, (that is, the Qinhuangdao area in later generations) Wei Yan has arrived first, and Zhang Jie has caught up.

Wei Yandao: Gongsun Chan sent his younger brother Gongsun Yue to defend Jieshi Mountain, this mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there is a Suwon general on the mountain who has sent people to surround all the exits of the mountain. Zhang Jie nodded and said, "How many defenders are there on the mountain?" Wei Jiang grabbed a tongue, but he didn't know very well, but it was estimated that there were about 5,000 people, Zhang Jie said: Let's set up camp first, and then say.

In the camp, Zhang Jie said: How can you attack this place?

Ju Yidao: The enemy army is condescending, and it is not easy to attack the road into the mountain, so why don't you set fire to the mountain? Frustrated: Many places on this mountain are bare, only the north side has more trees, and there will definitely be many caves on the mountain, and the fire will not have much effect.

Zhang Jie said: It's better to burn it first, the fire on the mountain will at least scare the defenders half to death, and they will definitely lose morale, and there will be nothing to stop without wooden trees. We can also see the situation of the defenders more clearly.

Wen Chang, you go and arrange arson, prepare more rockets, and burn all the trees and weeds on the entire mountain, if only you could burn the enemy's grain and grass. If! In this era, there is nothing environmentally friendly or anything, anyway, the trees grow faster after they are burned.

And Wei Yan went down and asked the soldiers to prepare hay and fire oil, and then tied rags to arrowheads, wrapped them in lamp oil, and shot them into the trees, and the fire broke out at once, and the wind caused the whole mountain to be on fire, and the defenders on the mountain were so frightened that they couldn't open their eyes.

Gongsun Yue was also in a hurry, and said what to do, and his side said: Let the soldiers withdraw to the top of the mountain or in the stone cave, and there are no trees around the top of the mountain. The bare stone mountains to the east are fine. Gongsun Yue immediately asked people to pass the order, in fact, even if he didn't give the order, the soldiers could only run to the top of the mountain, the fireworks were too big, and there were the most trees on the mountainside, and if they didn't withdraw, they could only be smoked to death.

Zhang Jie's fire actually didn't kill anyone, it only scared the defenders and injured a few people on the way, but it made the morale of the defenders drop to the extreme. It's terrifying to think about, there are fires everywhere, thick smoke is billowing out, and the defenders can only stay on the top of the big mountain, watching the smoke in Sizhou, this scene is really scary, and Zhang Jie didn't dare to give the order to attack, the smoke was too big. The troops also withdrew farther away, in case they were burned by fire. A fire burned for nearly half a day before it stopped, and there were black traces of fire everywhere. As soon as the fire stopped, Gongsun Yue ordered the soldiers to hold the mountain pass road.

Zhang Jie wanted to attack first, but he also gave up, the defenders were much closer than them, it was too late to rush for time, and there was still sporadic smoke everywhere, and the road could not be distinguished in some places on the ground. I had to prepare for another attack the next day.

In Zhang Jie's tent, Zhang Jie said: You said that if Gongsun Chan knew that we were surrounding Gongsun Yue, would he send troops to rescue?

Frustrated: It's really hard to say, if you want to save it, Gongsun Chan must know that as long as we attack him, we will definitely take this place. Otherwise, we won't be able to get through the grain road. But Gongsun Zhan knew that this place was alone. Why is this even the case? Is it just buying time?

But wouldn't it be what we thought if we sent troops to save us? He couldn't have made such a mistake.

Yan Judao: Gongsun Chan has a wolf heart, so he shouldn't come to the rescue. He asked Gongsun Yue to defend this place because he wanted us to fall into the predicament of forcibly attacking the mountain. It is necessary to destroy a large number of the living forces of our army, and he knows that our expedition to Liaodong is a long way, and it is difficult to supply, so it is impossible to bring too many soldiers and horses. So he just wants Gongsun Yue to drag us.

Well, Zhang Jie nodded and said: It seems that this is the case. What if Gongsun Yue didn't know? Let's let a group of people dress up as Gongsun Zhan's army? Will Gongsun Yue be fooled?

Yan Judao: If Gongsun Chan and Gongsun Yue said that they would not come to the rescue, it would be difficult to be schemed, but if they didn't say it first, Gongsun Yue might be hit, but no matter what, if we don't attack once, it will be more difficult for Gongsun Yue to be hit.

Zhang Jie said: Zilong, you will personally bring some soldiers to the surrounding area tomorrow to catch a few Gongsun Zhan's scouts, if you want to live, Gongsun Chan doesn't matter if he comes to save Gongsun Yue or not, it is impossible for him not to send scouts to inquire about the war, and I can use a few tongues to catch them. Promise!

The next day, Zhang Jie began to attack the mountain, which was difficult to attack because of the steep rocks in the east. Mainly to the south, the west began to attack, Zhang Jie ordered Wang to attack the west, Wei Yan to attack the south, Ju Yi's crossbowmen cooperated with the two of them to suppress the archers of the defenders.

When the attack drum sounded, the shield hand held the shield and began to attack forward, but the back attack road was not wide, the soldiers had to walk the burned place, when the two sides gathered less than 100 steps, the Gongsun army began to release arrows, and the Jizhou army began to climb up with the shield, at the beginning there was a shield to block, and the casualties were not large.

But when the climb to the defenders is very close. The defenders suddenly threw stones, and now the shield was useless, dozens or hundreds of pounds of stones rolled down, how could the shield dare to take it, and many of them were smashed on the spot, and some people were smashed flat.

Fortunately, there are crossbowmen who suppress the defenders and dare not stand up and smash, so they can only use the method of rolling stones to throw down, and the accurate head is a little worse than smashing, but they can't stand it like this, and some big stones are injured when they hit it, and they will die if they hit it. In the end, Wei Yan ordered the soldiers to disperse, and the more they stood in a pile, the easier it was for the defenders to hit the stones. After attacking for half a morning, there were hundreds of casualties, but it had no effect, and Wei Yan, who was anxious, scolded
