The military order was like a mountain, and everyone lifted Li Mao and rushed to a small courtyard against the mountain, where there were three tiled houses behind the mountain, and the back wall of the tiled house was the entrance to the core part of the command post. To see the latest chapter of this book, please go to Sugar Hua Rainbow, with you all the way

Hu Nanxiang was directing the staff officers and civilian personnel to retreat to the cave, and was shocked when he saw Li Mao unconscious. Shi Kong said: "Dashuai is poisoned, you protect him." With that, he drew his sword in his hand and personally led all the guards of the red-clothed sentry out to fight a blocking battle.

Everything in this cave is that the entrance is too small, which is not conducive to the passage of large groups of people and horses, and it is easy to block when there are many people, and they need to be channeled, and they need to fight a blocking battle after the break.

The Shannan command post had a complete defense system, but under the sudden attack of hundreds of well-trained Silla elite soldiers, the defense line was like paper paste and collapsed in an instant.

The Black Crested used ninja tactics, they lay motionless in the wind and snow for a day, successfully evaded the eyes of the patrols, took advantage of the heavy snow at dusk, quickly cleared the outpost and lurked under the command post unnoticed.

They were originally going to come to the inside and outside to capture and kill Li Mao in one fell swoop, but they didn't want to have some episodes in the middle, so they infiltrated the inner pile in the command post to seek merit, revealing their identities in advance, forcing the whole plan to be carried out in advance.

The people inside hurriedly moved, but the people outside were still lurking as planned, and it was precisely because of this mistake that most of the staff officers and civilian personnel in the command post had the opportunity to withdraw into the "warehouse".

Of course, these are nothing to the black crests, and their goal is very clear: to capture and kill Li Mao at all costs, so that the Anton army will be leaderless.

Once the black crested head that had been gathering momentum for a long time launched an attack, it would be a thunderous momentum, and the defense line carefully constructed by the Shannan command post was vulnerable in front of them.

Three hundred black crested men almost simultaneously tore through the defense line and rushed in, and a fierce white-knuckle battle took place in every room, every corridor and corridor. The right wing of the pro-army is Li Mao's pro-army, but the quality is uneven, there are very elite red-clothed sentinels, there are also blue-clothed young men with average combat effectiveness, and even some old and weak people who can't even ride horses.

Most of the blue-clothed young men stationed on the periphery are the children of generals in the army, arrogant and domineering, brave in battle, but their tactics are not refined, and they are completely inferior in the confrontation with the elite black crest, the black crested easily crushed their resistance, they captured some prisoners, and wanted to torture Li Mao's whereabouts, but the answers they got were all thick phlegm.

Jin Xiuzong, who was wrapped in a snow-white cloak, dodged a mouthful of thick phlegm in embarrassment, and said to the left and right: "Don't ask, it's all hard bones." Fulfill them. "The general order, the heads fell to the ground.

A leader came to report: "There is movement in the battalion of the first division. ”

"It's going to take me half an hour to hit the block." Kim so-jong gave the order simply and clearly, and strode towards the entrance of the "warehouse" on the mountain with a blood-dripping scimitar.

The fierce battle in front continued, and the opponent was the famous brown shirt team in the pro-army on the right wing, most of them were veterans who had seen blood, well-trained, well-equipped, brave and tenacious, that is, they were a little older, with an average age of more than forty years old, and they had the reputation of "old soldiers" in the army. Sugar hua

The old man's knives are still sharp, but these are nothing to the black crest, and what really gives the black crested a headache is the latest repeating machine crossbow they are equipped.

Black Limelight also has a repeating crossbow, which is a copycat modeled after the Second Ordnance Institute, and the quality is far less reliable than the genuine goods, and there are many failures after fierce battles, and they are mostly abandoned in the wilderness.

The old man's crossbow was genuine and of excellent quality, and they only used four people to block a choke point, and the crossbow arrows rained out, and the Silla people could not get close.

Jin Xiuzong frowned, and glanced at a masked man beside him, the masked man had to order to leave the team, silently, and a moment later, the masked man appeared behind the four old soldiers, and when the masked man got up and put away the scimitar, the bodies of the four people slowly fell.

Passing through a corridor is the small courtyard at the entrance of the "warehouse", Shi Kong and Ma Xiong'an have led a large team of men and horses to wait for them, Jin Xiuzong stopped his subordinates from using bows and crossbows, and the other party did not fortify heavily at the throat road, but they lined up here, but they thought of it with him.

Waving his hand and shining his sword, the Silla people also set up a position, the red-clothed whistle is Li Mao's last capital, and it is also the biggest obstacle to his trip, this enemy does not need to be defeated by force, it is difficult to get rid of the arrogance of the enemy, and it is difficult to eliminate the hatred in his heart.

The two armies collided silently but violently, roars, screams, the clashing of gold and iron, the piercing sound of swords slashing into bones.

This terrifying sound that sounded heart-wrenching to others, but Jin Xiuzong listened to it as if it was the most beautiful music in the world.

In terms of individual combat effectiveness, there is little difference between the two sides, the red-clothed sentinel has the advantage of occupancy, the black crested head has a numerical advantage, the battle was once stalemate, and there was no sign of victory or defeat for a long time.

The masked white-clothed man standing behind Jin Xiuzong moved half a step forward, asking if he wanted to attack, Jin Xiuzong didn't say anything, his cold face was as cold as iron.

After a scream, Shikong fell, his thigh was cut half a foot long by the sharp scimitar, deep to the bones, and a red-clothed sentry blocked the enemy's mortal blow with his flesh and blood, but he fell under the scimitar.

The weapons of the Silla people resembled bent Tang knives, which were as sharp as Tang knives and easier to chop. In hand-to-hand white-knuckle combat, neither side is armoured, and the Silla knife is better than the Tang sword.

Watching the battle from the sidelines, Jin Xiuzong, who had never shown his face, snorted at this moment, and there was a hint of a smile in Sen Leng's eyes.

When the stone falls, half of the sky collapses in the red-clothed whistle.

The situation is really as Jin Xiuzong expected, the stone is empty in the red whistle just like the soul is to the body, and now the soul is out of the body, and the body has become a walking corpse, and a walking corpse is useless.

When the situation reversed, Jin Xiuzong's trouble also followed, a leader flew in, whispered in his ear twice, Jin Xiuzong frowned, beckoned the four generals around him, whispered two instructions, and the four took the order to leave.

After Li Mao was seriously injured and retreated into the warehouse, the two guards responsible for setting off the wolf smoke, Han Zhenzhi and Hu Sijin, quietly climbed the watchtower on the mountain.

They were ordered to set off wolf smoke, and when they reached the top of the tower, they found that the watchtower guards had been killed, and all the dry dung and firewood accumulated on the top of the tower had been discarded and wet.

After some searching, the entire set of bedding in Qin Mo's lounge, including the precious cotton silk quilt, fur fur, tiger skin mattress and leopard skin mat, became the trophies of the two, and the two thought that General Qin Mo was a person who knew the overall situation and would not blame them for this trivial matter, so they happily went up to the watchtower with fuel and lit a fire.

The first to receive the signal was Wangbai of the First Division, and Chen Guangdao, the deputy commander of the battalion, immediately summoned the generals after receiving the report, and opened a letter left to him by the commander Shucheng in person.

Chen Guangdao obeyed the order and did not move, but sent a fast horse to inform the slave army in the south. Chen Guangdao sent a total of three people to report the news, and the three people took three paths, two of which were robbed and killed by the hidden black crested head shortly after leaving the camp, and only one way reached the camp of the slave army safely.

On a snowy night, Mao Taigong, the commander of the slave army, cooked a pot in a nest, was drinking with the close generals, and immediately lifted the pot when he heard the news, carrying an eighteen catties of Qinglong Yanyue knife, strode out of the camp, and rushed all the way to save Li Mao against the wind and snow.

On the way, he encountered several enemies who blocked the attack, and according to his usual habits, it was necessary to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots, but this time he didn't care, and he didn't pursue after the defeat, and only cared about walking towards the Shannan command post.

Mao Taigong's falling from the sky disrupted Jin Xiuzong's wishful thinking, and he had to put away his playfulness and go into battle himself. Without Shikong, the combat strength of the red-clothed sentinel was not as good as before, and Ma Xiong'an could not support it alone, so he had to fight and retreat, and retreated all the way to the entrance of the "warehouse". The space here is narrow, and the strong crossbows are flying like rain, which makes Kim so-jong at a loss.

The masked man standing beside him quietly came out of the battle, holding two smoking bamboo tubes and rolling on the spot, the bamboo tubes rolled at the feet of the red-clothed sentry soldiers, and exploded on the ground, and milky white smoke billowed and ignited.

"Ahem, poisonous, there, poisonous cough"

The milky white smoke was highly toxic, which Ma Xiong'an did not expect.

"Cover your mouth and nose and hold your breath." Ma Xiong'an issued a warning, but he inhaled a large puff of smoke, and after coughing violently, tears exchanged tears, and his throat seemed to be pierced by thousands of needles, and it seemed to be choked by a big hand, and he was miserable.

The roof leak happened to rain overnight, and the Silla people's crossbow arrows rained down again, although they were not as dense and tough as the repeating machine crossbows, but the red-clothed whistles who were tormented by the smoke were still unable to stop them, and they fell to their deaths.

Ma Xiong'an was hit by three arrows in a row, but fortunately he did not hurt the vital point, so he had to drag the corpse of a comrade and cover his body, although he had a shield, but the bad luck did not go far: the crossbow arrows of the Silla people were coated with poison, and the person who was hit by the arrow quickly became confused.

The Silla killer covered his mouth and nose with a cloth towel soaked in potion and killed him in the chaos.

"Close, close"

Ma Xiong'an couldn't make a sound without finishing his sentence, and in the haze, he found that countless bulls and horses had been killed on the opposite side, and there was a foot-wide gap in the iron door behind him that had not been closed. He tried his best to push it, but a bright scimitar slashed at him, the blade embedded in his bones, and with a loud sound, Ma Xiong'an passed out.

Jin Xiuzong covered his mouth and nose with his hands and flashed into the cave, facing a small "hall", which was full of corpses, some were red-clothed whistles, and some were black-crested, and there were three identical iron-clad doors in front of the hall.

He designated a door in the middle and said coldly, "Open." ”

Someone took out the axe chisel and flashed over, clanging, stone chips flying, this seemingly unbreakable iron door actually has a fatal weakness, the stone wall it is embedded in is actually made of green bricks, and the outside is just a stone slab, if you are confused by its surface and go all out to deal with the door itself, it will be half the effort, and this is absolutely fatal on the battlefield where there is no room.

Under the blow of the axe and chisel, the blue brick wall was very cracked, and the iron crowbar quickly followed, expanding the victory, several grappling hooks hooked the door frame, and the twelve samurai under the command of a leader worked in unison, and with a loud bang, the heavy iron-clad door and its iron door frame fell together.

Feathered arrows shot out like flying locusts, and this time the Silla people were already on guard, and no one was killed or injured.

Another bamboo tube with white smoke rolled in, and after a violent cough, the rain of arrows stopped for a while, and several Silla killers with extremely fast skills flashed into the smoke, and then there were bursts of screams. The rain of arrows stopped completely, and more people were killed.

After clearing the pass, Jin Xiuzong continued to advance, and the rear leader came to report that Mao Taigong's slave army had been killed outside the command post, and two other armies of unknown origin also rushed to reinforce, and now they were surrounded in turn.

Jin Xiuzong did not panic, this is the inevitable trouble of using the heart-digging tactic, after all, this is where Li Mao's heart is, and his army is everywhere.

Fortunately, Li Mao's Shannan command post has a very complete defense system, and he is easy to get his hands on by chance, and now he will use his shield to deal with his spear, and the offensive and defensive sides will drop a position, he will attack and defend, I will make sandwich cakes, and I will fight on two fronts.

Li Mao was inside, and if he killed Li Mao, Anton Jun lost his backbone, and he was splashed with blood on the spot, so it was worth it.

He decisively issued two orders, one was to use poisonous smoke to open the way and rush in to capture Li Mao as soon as possible, and the other was to close the iron gate at the entrance and fight against the water, so as to prevent the achievement from falling short.

The poisonous smoke made the opponent lose the confidence to resist, and another thick iron-clad door crashed to the ground in front of the skilled craftsman, in front of which was a narrow corridor, and at the end of the corridor was the last door, if the information was not wrong, there would be a hall on the other side of the door, Li Mao's last hiding place.

This door is unusually strong, but without a human garrison, it is only a matter of time before it is opened.

The axe and chisel clanked, and this time it was the actual stone chips that were flying.

Kim so-jong's face was not sad but happy, which confirmed that the information he had obtained from secret channels was true, he went the right way, found the right door, and behind that door was what he wanted.

With a muffled thud, the last iron door fell, the smoke cleared, and a very spacious hall was in front of it.
