Chapter 475: Filling the River
In the east of the road, the rolling stones and trees that fell from the high cliff killed a lot of Yuan Shao's soldiers and horses, but there were also lucky people who rushed over, but there were only more than ten people, and after the catastrophe, they just breathed a sigh of relief, and were rushed up by more than ten fierce tigers and killed them.

Thousands of soldiers and horses were crowded into the narrow tunnel, which was no more than a foot wide, and it was difficult to stretch, which made Jiao Touch and Zhang Nan, who were commanding the battle in the rear, anxious and angry.
This narrow section of the road is several miles long, and they set up an ambush here at the beginning, plotting how miserable Zhang Liao is, and how miserable they are now, everything has been turned upside down.
At this time, Zhang Liao was only glad in his heart, if it weren't for Guo Jia's timely awakening, it is estimated that the thousand of them would have died in the narrow tunnel, blocked before and after, and there were rolling stones and sasswoods.
"Stick to the cliff, dodge the rocks and rush over!" Zhang Nan yelled in the back, driving away the soldiers.
"Wait!" Jiao Touch's voice stopped: "The road is narrow, there is no way to dodge, and the soldiers will die in vain, so it is better for me to wait and wait for the general to drive them over, and wait for work." ”
Zhang Nan said loudly: "I'm afraid that if Zhang Liao's reinforcements arrive, the ambush will fail." ”
Jiao touched and said in a deep voice: "I heard the scout's report before, Zhang Liao's trip is only a thousand people, and General Koji is good at fighting, with 10,000 against 1,000, how can Zhang Liao resist, he will definitely be defeated, we just need to intercept it here." ”
"This ......" Zhang Nan couldn't help but groan when he heard what Jiao Touch said.
Jiao Touch said: "You can wait for half an hour, if Zhang Liao can't come over, I will rush over desperately to attack this fang, but now, we must take the high cliff first, the left side has been occupied by the enemy, we can attack the left side, and rush to the right side at the same time, just occupy one side, you can block the rolling stones, block Zhang Liao's retreat." ”
Zhang Nan looked up at the cliff above his head and said loudly: "Okay, act quickly!" ”
……
On the other side of the Mianman River in the west, Koji yelled and drove the soldiers into the water to cross the river, but he drove not his own descendants, but the Black Mountain Army that cooperated in the battle. This time, the Montenegrin army had 3,000 men and horses followed by Koyi to outflank Zhang Liao.
Koji Yi has always been brutal, and the Montenegrin army is also afraid, the leader of the Montenegrin army who led the army along the way is Wang Dang, he glanced at Koji Yi, turned to his soldiers, gritted his teeth and said: "Five hundred people first, cross the river!" ”
The Montenegrin army had no choice but to divide five hundred people to go down the river, although the Mianman River did not have thick ice, but the water temperature was at the critical limit of freezing, extremely cold, after the five hundred Montenegrin army went down to the river, all of them were so cold that they gasped, and some people directly had convulsions of their legs and feet.
After dripping two feet, the river water has not reached the chest, the Montenegrin army has weapons, and it can't swim at all, not to mention that most of them can't swim, one by one the Montenegrin army retreated to the shore, drenched, only shivering from the cold, and the lips were blue.
Koji Yi looked at the slow-flowing Mianmanhe River with a gloomy expression.
……
Zhang Liao was on the east bank, and he didn't pay attention to the enemy soldiers who crossed the river, although the Mianman River was not very wide, but it was extremely deep, otherwise Han Xin would not have had to fight against the water.
He instructed the soldiers to quickly collect the corpses, and then piled them up on the eastern crossing, which was blocked by the corpses in the blink of an eye.
Zhang Liao also ordered the soldiers to stick the iron arrows of the repeater crossbow upside down on the corpses, and then inserted the scimitar upside down, revealing the blades, and then took advantage of the opportunity of the enemy in the east to quickly pour hot water on the pile of corpses to speed up the freezing.
Once frozen, it was a hideous line of defense, with iron arrows and blades pointing outward, completely blocking the enemy in the eastern path, so that they could not cross it, and only needed to deal with Koji Yoshishi with all their might.
If Zhang Nan and Jiao Touch knew that Zhang Liao was arranging this, I am afraid that they would have regretted not rushing over a long time ago. But even if they had to rush over, it would be difficult, and Shi Ah from the cliff kept an eye on them, and the falling rocks and trees alone blocked the passage from passing.
At the same time, Zhang Liao ordered his guards to destroy the ice surface of the ramps on the north and south sides with swords and halberds, and while retracting the iron arrows of the crossbows, preparing for battle, while driving the war horses away.
He knew that Koji would inevitably find a way to rush over.
At the same time, on the west bank of the Mianman River, Ko Yi stared at Zhang Liao, who was across the water, and watched his soldiers block the eastern road, and his face was pale.
He glanced at the Montenegrin army in front of him, his eyes flashed hideous, he looked at Wang Dang, the commander of the Montenegrin army, and ordered: "There is no room for loss in this battle, you have 3,000 men, all cross the river!" ”
Wang Dang saw that Koji Yi did not regard them as friendly troops and only sent them to death, his eyes flashed with dissatisfaction, and he argued: "General Koji, the Mianman River is deep and even colder, not to mention that the soldiers can't cross it, but they know that they can't fight, it's just that they are sent to death." It's better to let the soldiers ride their horses across the river......"
Burst!
The spear in Lu Yi's hand suddenly stabbed out and passed through Wang Dang's chest: "Disobey the military order, and there will be no mercy!" ”
Wang Dang spurted out a mouthful of blood, the weapon in his hand fell to the ground, and pointed at Koji: "Koji...... Yeast...... Hate! Hate...... Don't rebel against ......"
Yes!
When the Montenegrin army saw Wang Dang stabbed to death by Liyi, they were shocked by the sudden change.
And Koji Yi had already ordered: "Drive the Black Mountain thieves across the river, but if you don't, shoot them!" ”
"Whoa!" Koji Yi's subordinates are all from Liangzhou, and they have always regarded human life as a mustard, and when they got the order, they did not hesitate to slash at the Montenegrin army in front of them, and there were crossbow arrows that directly shot the Montenegrin army.
The Black Mountain Army didn't expect Koji Yi to turn his face ruthlessly, and hundreds of people died in a trance, and the rest couldn't help but scream in panic and rushed towards Mianmanshui, this is their only way to survive!
Koji Yi yelled: "The Black Mountain thieves rebel, don't count killing!" Fill the river with their corpses! ”
The last sentence revealed his thoughts, using the corpses of the Montenegrin army to fill the river as a bridge, the Mianman River flows slowly, not afraid of washing away, the corpses of three thousand Montenegrin troops are enough to turn the river of five or six zhang into a thoroughfare.
Seeing that many Montenegrin troops did not cross the river, but rushed downstream, Koji Yi's color changed, and he said sharply: "All of them are killed, and no one is left!" ”
The thousands of crossbowmen under his command immediately moved, arrows rained down, and one by one the Black Mountain army fell screaming in the Mianman River, and many more died on the shore, and their bodies were thrown into the river by order of Koji Yi.
In the eyes of Ko Yi, the lives of these Montenegrin troops are far less important than their own horses.
……
This scene alarmed Zhang Liao on the other side of the river, and Guo Jia reacted the fastest, and said urgently: "Lord, they want to fill the river with corpses!" ”
Zhang Liao looked at the Black Mountain Army that was killed one by one, they once took refuge in themselves, and now they are rebelling, but they are killed by their comrades, only to fill the river, which is really ironic.
In any case, he had no time to care about anything now, he turned his head to look at the soldiers who were also shocked, and said solemnly: "Our enemy is a group of cold-blooded beasts, this battle is nine deaths, drive away the war horses as soon as possible, arrange defenses, and prepare for battle!" ”
"Whoa!" All the soldiers solemnly received the order.
At this time, Xianglong ran to Zhang Liao's side, and seemed to know that this time it was likely to be a parting of life and death, so he rubbed him reluctantly, unwilling to leave.
The same is true of many soldiers' war horses, and in common battles, war horses are like brothers and comrades for soldiers, and their feelings are very deep.
Zhang Liao silently clinged to the elephant dragon, stroking its neck, ears, eyes and mouth, and there seemed to be tears flowing out of the elephant dragon's eyes.
After a while, Zhang Liao saw that the soldiers had cut off the ice, the door panel was paved, and slowly pointed to the north: "Take care, take them." ”
Xianglong let out a sad neigh, and left with thousands of war horses, Zhang Liao and all the soldiers saluted each other, and many people were in tears.
They knew that this battle would not only kill their lives, but even after the war horses left, they were likely to be taken away by the fleeing Wuhuan people, but they had no choice, at the moment of the war, they had no time to care about the war horses, and the war horses would only be killed and injured if they stayed here.
It is completely different for the war horse to fall into the hands of the Wuhuan people and the Liyi, the Wuhuan people love horses, while the Liyi will only kill the war horses to prevent them from escaping with the horses.
After watching Zhang Liao leave, Zhang Liao immediately ordered the soldiers to erect shields on the shore, raise their repeater crossbows, and prepare to shoot.
Lu Yi wanted to cross the river with a bridge built with a corpse, and Zhang Liao would not allow him to achieve it easily.
