"Watch out for stone bullets!"

Liu Bei finally came to his senses from his anger, hid under Guan Yu's shield and arm, and did not forget to shout.

The Han soldiers under the battlements immediately shrank their heads lower, leaned their bodies deeper, and waited for that moment to come tremblingly.

In the next moment, the stone bullet smashed like a meteor.

Rumble! Rumble! Rumble!

In the loud sound of the sky collapsing, two hundred stone bullets bombarded, and the mountains shook immediately, and the stone chips flew wildly in the air.

After a round of stone bombardment, the movement was very large, but it did not cause much damage to Yangping Pass.

Except for the wooden towers that were smashed through and some of the battlements were smashed, causing less than 100 Han soldiers to be killed and wounded, there was not much obvious change in the entire Yangping Pass.

Looking at the intact Yangping Pass, Su Zhe's sword eyebrows condensed slightly, and he muttered: "Yangping Pass really lives up to its reputation. ”

In the front military formation, Zhang Ren raised his sword and shouted: "Siege the city, impact!" ”

The drums of war intensified abruptly, and the order to charge was given.

The soldiers of the Wei army, who were originally in formation, suddenly accelerated their pace and rushed towards Yangping Pass on the slope like a tide.

Under the cover of the divine thunder cannon and the bow and crossbow, the Wei army successfully climbed the slope and rushed to the bottom of the Yangping Pass wall.

Zhang Ren gave another order, and more than 50 cloud ladders were raised by high trees and leaned against the city.

Then, the Great Wei soldiers scrambled to climb to the top of the ladder, vying to be the first to attack the city.

At the beginning of the battle of the Wei army, the divine thunder artillery could only stop bombarding, and the crossbowmen did not dare to release arrows wantonly, so as not to hurt their own people.

The suppressed Han army at the head of the city was finally able to take a breath, dare to stand up straight, and launch a counterattack.

Liu Bei also stood up, looked down at the Wei army who was climbing, and snorted coldly: "Su thief, with just these few cloud ladders, you also want to attack my Yangping Pass, you are too arrogant!" ”

He held his sword in his hand and shouted: "Warriors of the Great Han, cheer up and stop the enemy for me!" ”

The order was handed down, and the counterattack of the Han army officially began.

On the arrow tower, countless sharp arrows fired cross-fire at the Wei army.

On the city wall, the roaring horn sounded, and the Han army smashed the flying stones and sassal trees one by one towards the Wei army under the city.

Screams rang out immediately, and countless Wei soldiers fell from the ladder, either falling into flesh or being killed by arrows, and smashing their brains with flying stones.

Blood stained the walls red.

Although the fighting spirit of the Han army was low, it occupied an absolute geographical advantage.

Because of the narrow terrain in front of Yangping Pass, the Wei army not only had to attack from the back, but could only set up only 50 cloud ladders along the front line of the city, and the number of soldiers used to attack the city was less than 2,000 people.

The Han army was in the same position, and it could invest several times the number of the Wei army, and it was by virtue of the numerical advantage that they easily gained the upper hand.

The Wei army's offensive was quickly blocked, and in the blink of an eye, a thick layer of corpses was piled up under the city wall.

Despite this, the fighting spirit of the Wei army never wavered, and it was still forgetting life and death, desperately attacking.

Zhang Ren also tried his best, even to the point of climbing the city himself, but he still failed to shake Yangping Pass.

"Your Majesty, the danger of Yangping Pass is indeed worthy of its reputation, and if you continue to attack it, I am afraid that there will be no result." Lu Xun cautiously reminded.

Su Zhe nodded slightly, brushed his hand and said: "Since you have tested the reality of Yangping Pass, there is no need to spend it any longer, Mingjin." ”

The order was passed down, and in the middle of the Chinese army, the golden sound sounded, echoing between heaven and earth.

At the head of the city, the soldiers of Wei who were fighting to the death were all relieved as if they had been amnesty.

Although Zhang Ren was anxious to prove his ability and was unwilling to withdraw, he did not dare to disobey Su Zhe's will, so he could only order the whole army to retreat with hatred.

In the blink of an eye, the soldiers of the Wei army attached to the city wall quickly retreated like a tide, holding high the big shield, forming a formation, and retreating westward in an orderly manner.

At the head of the city, the Han army saw that the Wei army had been forced back, and they were all relieved, all of them rejoiced, yelled excitedly, and the low morale of the army couldn't help but rise again.

"Every retreat can be so orderly, the army of Wei is really an elite division......" Zhuge Liang was not so excited, but sighed and admired the elite of the Wei army.

Liu Bei's gray face rekindled his self-confidence and pride, and sneered: "Su thief, Su thief, aren't you rampant, it turns out that you have this ability, haha-"

"Your Majesty, the attack of the Su thief is just a temptation, now is not the time to take it lightly, has Your Majesty forgotten the mistakes of the Sword Pavilion?" Fa Zheng couldn't stand Liu Bei's pride, and couldn't help but remind.

Liu Bei's heart was shocked, his laughter stopped abruptly, and he couldn't help but shudder.

In the battle of Sword Pavilion, he also repelled a tentative attack by Su Zhe, and he couldn't help but be smug and began to ignore Su Zhe.

As a result, Su Zhe used a trick to cross Yinping, and with a move of airborne divine soldiers, miraculously smuggled his Yinping City, forcing him to abandon the pass and flee.

"Xiaozhi reminds me that it is just a small victory in front of us, and it is indeed not to be careless."

Liu Bei regained his senses, glanced at the generals, and said in a loud voice: "You must all be in good spirits, closely monitor the Wei army, and never repeat the mistakes of the Sword Pavilion Pass!" ”

……

West of Yangping Pass, the Wei army camp.

After paying for the deaths and wounds of more than a thousand soldiers, Su Zhe retreated to the camp in an orderly manner.

More than 1,000 dead and wounded were just a drop in the bucket for the 200,000 army, and they did not dampen the Wei army at all.

At nightfall, Su Zhe called for the slaughter of sheep and chickens, and comforted the soldiers with wine and meat to make up for the slight setback of the siege during the day.

In the imperial tent, Lu Xun, Zhang Chunhua, Jia Xu, Huang Quan, Deng Ai and other resourceful courtiers all gathered in the tent to discuss how to break the Yangping Pass.

"Yangping Pass is strong, not inferior to the Sword Pavilion, it can only be outwitted like the previous Sword Pavilion, and it can never be strong." Lu Xun was the first to speak, setting the strategic tone.

Su Zhe nodded slightly: "What Bo Yan said is extremely true, then tell me, how to outwit it?" ”

"Well...... the corners of Lu Xun's mouth raised a wry smile, "Liu Bei has experienced the pain of losing Yinping, he will definitely be more careful, if we want to outwit it, I'm afraid it won't be so easy, and the minister can't think of any clever plan for a while." ”

"Your Majesty, or we will use the Kong Ming Lantern again to kick the big-eared thief's ass from the sky." Yan Liang came up with a plan.

Su Zhe smiled and didn't speak.

Zhang Chunhua said with a smile: "General Yan's thinking is too simple, Yangping Pass is not as good as Sword Pavilion, even if we use Kong Mingning to fly over the city and enter the Hanzhong Plain, there is no city there, and Liu Bei can be forced to abandon Yangping Pass, so the same strategy may not be used anywhere." ”

"What about Nan Zheng? Can't we attack the South Zhengcheng of Hanzhong County? Yan Liang asked again.

"Since Nanzheng City is the seat of Hanzhong, Liu Bei will definitely have enough soldiers and horses, and Kong Ming's lantern capacity is limited, it is impossible to airlift too many soldiers and horses to Nanzheng, there are not enough soldiers and horses, and it is almost impossible to succeed in this attack on Nanzheng." This time it was Lu Xun's turn to reject Yan Liang's proposal.

Lu Xun then said: "Besides, Liu Bei has suffered the loss of Yinping, and he will definitely prevent us from repeating our old tricks, this time if we want to be airborne from the sky, we may not be able to hide from his ears and eyes." ”

Bang!

Yan Liang hit his fist on the desk and muttered: "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, then how can this Yangping Pass be broken!" ”
