The first wave of attacks organized by Zhou Gang failed, and the expression on his face did not change much. Zhou Gang is a veteran in the army, and he understands that victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, and this is only the first time to attack. The first time it failed, regrouping is. Immediately, Zhou Gang organized the soldiers again and gave the order for a second attack.

The soldiers who had retreated down the mountain quickly regained their formation and went up the hill again.

Follow the rugged and steep mountain road, keep going up.

This time, it was the first time I encountered a situation, and when I reached the middle of the mountain, I was met with a strong resistance. Under the attack of large rocks and dense trees, the soldiers of the Youzhou Army returned in vain.

Coming down twice in a row, it was already close to evening.

The sun was setting, the moon was rising, and it was already dark.

Shi Zhu sighed lightly, called Zhou Gang over, and sighed lightly: "We were the first to arrive at Jianshan and took the lead. However, by noon tomorrow at the latest, the two armies to the east and west of the Jianshan family will surely arrive at the children of the reborn family. As for the troops in ambush in Zhangcun, they will arrive by tomorrow night at the latest. If you can't take the Jizhou army on the mountain tonight, the ducks in hand will fly. ”

Zhou Gang was ashamed and said: "The last general is incompetent, which disappointed the general." After a pause, Zhou Gang said: "After dark, the Jizhou army on the mountain will definitely relax its vigilance, and at that time, it will be our opportunity." Please give the last general another chance. After dark, the last general himself took someone to touch it. ”

Shi Zhu said: "What Tai Shi Ci sent is not a simple thing, there will be defense. ”

Zhou Gang clenched his fists and said: "The sky is dark, and the mountains are full of woods, and the light is dark, so you can't see clearly." I will first take a very small number of soldiers to touch it, and once I have figured out the situation, I will let our soldiers go up the mountain in batches. As long as you gain a firm foothold in the mountains, you will surely succeed. ”

Shi Zhu nodded and said, "Your suggestion, you can give it a try, I'm approved." ”

"Thank you, General!"

Zhou Gang looked excited, and secretly cheered up, he must touch it at night.

The army returned to camp at the foot of the hill and waited for an opportunity.

On the mountain, piles of bonfires are lit.

The soldiers under Li You's command were also camped on the mountain, and the soldiers who were responsible for patrolling and guarding were all arranged. Li You sat by the fire with a serious expression. Around Li You, there are also generals and generals in the army. Li Youshu said slowly: "The Youzhou army was not able to attack the mountain during the day, and it may come again at night." Therefore, it is necessary to be prepared. ”

"Please command, General!"

The military marquis, who was in charge of guarding the road during the day, was the first to speak.

Li You thought for a while, and suddenly asked, "Is there an iron thistle in the army?" ”

The marquis replied, "I don't know, I have to ask the quartermaster." ”

Li You said: "Call over and ask." ”

The military marquis went to give the order, and after a while, the quartermaster in charge of logistics came to Li You's side and saluted respectfully. When he learned about the situation, he immediately replied: "General, there are stored thistles in the army. It's just that once the thistle is used on the road between the mountains, although it can temporarily stop the opponent's attack, when we go down the mountain, the thistle terrestris also has an impact on us, and the mountains are not flat and difficult to clean. ”

"It doesn't matter! Take it out and use it. Hurry up and sprinkle on the road as soon as possible. ”

Li You's mind was firm and gave the order directly.

The quartermaster nodded and immediately went to make arrangements.

The matter of the thistle terrestris was arranged, and Li You arranged the secret sentinels to hide in various positions one by one, and be fully prepared. After arranging things, Li You asked the generals under his command to rest, but he himself was still wandering around the mountain.

It was the first night after the Battle of Eagle, and he couldn't sleep.

The night is getting deeper and deeper.

Gradually, it was already late at night.

Zhou Gang took twenty soldiers and quietly touched the mountain. Although there is a bright moon hanging in the sky, the night is hazy, and the terrain on the mountain road is steep and densely wooded, making it difficult to see the people on the mountain road.

"General, let's touch it this time, if it goes well, tonight, the army can all go up, and then defeat the Jizhou army hiding in the mountains in one fell swoop."

One soldier lowered his voice and said excitedly.

Zhou Gang was also full of expectations in his heart, but said: "Give me care, there is nothing wrong with being careful." ”

The group gradually went up, and the more they went up, the more nervous their hearts became.

From the position of the daytime battle, it is getting closer and closer to the hell cinemaRead the full text.

Sometimes, I even stepped on the corpses of soldiers who died during the day, which was hard and very uncomfortable. Zhou Gang suddenly stopped, turned to look at the soldiers under his command, and once again ordered: "Be careful for me, be careful." This is the most critical time, and whether it can succeed depends on this time. ”

The soldiers all nodded, all in high spirits.

Zhou Gang took the lead and continued to walk up.

"Poof!"

With a muffled sound, Zhou Gang suddenly felt a heart-rending pain under his feet, and couldn't help screaming: "Ah!! ”

The screams, terrible, broke the silence of the night.

Just now, Zhou Gang stepped on the thistle terrestris. The thistle terrestris was extremely sharp, easily piercing the sole of the shoe and penetrating Zhou Gang's footboard. The soldiers who followed Zhou Gang's side, because they didn't stop, stepped forward, and some soldiers were hit, and they let out terrible screams.

However, there was no movement on the mountain.

No soldiers fought back, no soldiers spoke, and no torches lit ......

Everything, exudes weirdness.

Zhou Gang stood on one foot, pressed one hand on a soldier's body, stabilized his body, and then raised his foot, looked at the bloody soles of his feet, and saw the iron thistle nailed to the foot plate clearly, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

He looked up at the mountain and said secretly: "Count you ruthless!" ”

One of the soldiers said, "General, let's make a sound, but there is no movement on the mountain, and I am afraid there are traps waiting for us." The situation is not birdish, just don't go up. ”

"Yes, if we go up, I'm afraid we will be tricked."

"This dark night is not suitable for touching quietly, so let's withdraw."

Fear rose in the hearts of each soldier.

Zhou Gang was seriously injured and could not climb up again, so he borrowed the slope to get off the donkey and said, "Go back first, and then make a decision." At this time, Zhou Gang couldn't care about his guarantee in front of the stone pillar, and it was important to save his life. Especially when blood flowed out of the soles of his feet, Zhou Gang always felt uncomfortable and led people to retreat.

The crowd quietly retreated again.

Li You got the news from the soldiers who were secretly watching, and chuckled twice. These people who want to climb the mountain quietly are really stupid enough to actually climb up by road.

Zhou Gang went down the mountain, faced the stone pillar, and said ashamedly: "The last general is incompetent, please punish the general." ”

Seeing Zhou Gang's tragic situation, Shi Zhu sighed lightly: "The generals of the Jizhou Army have a very good set of defenses, and it is quite difficult to attack them at night. Forget it, no more attacking. Wait for the arrival of the remaining three armies, and then make a discussion. ”

Zhou Gang endured the pain and retreated, and returned to the army to recuperate from his injuries.

The night passed silently.

Early the next morning, the golden crow rose in the east, and the golden morning glow erupted from the sky, illuminating the heaven and the earth. Shizhu's army did not attack, but only stationed at the foot of the mountain, blocking the way for Li You to leave.

In the middle of the day, to the east, west and south of Jianshan, three armies appeared at the same time.

These three armies are all Tian Kai's army.

Tian Kai set up a pocket array in Xiyang Pavilion and set up a survey of troops around the Quartet, intending to encircle and destroy the army sent by Tai Shici in one fell swoop.

Li You's army was trapped in Jianshan, and the army all rushed in.
