After two busy days, after dealing with the Xianbei prisoners and wealth, Tian Feng convened a military meeting and prepared to attack Danhan Mountain.

The battle did not pay much, but the results were not small, and everyone was in a good mood.

In order to dispel everyone's psychology of despising the enemy, Tian Feng cooled everyone down and said: "Don't be careless, we disguised ourselves as cavalry of the grassland tribe this time, which can be regarded as making a profit, but such good things are not common, don't look at the Xianbei people on the mountain, if you want to occupy, you have to pay several times the casualties before." ”

Yan Liang suggested: "Military, this time we accidentally rescued more than 5,000 Han slaves, they have been here for many years and are familiar with the local situation, maybe they have a way to conquer Danhan Mountain." ”

Zhang Fei asked rhetorically, "How can there be so many Han slaves?" ”

Tian Feng explained: "Some people were looted by the Xianbei people, and some escaped on their own, and so on. ”

Zhang Fei retorted: "The Xianbei people have been operating Danhan Mountain for so long, and they have long been built into a solid foundation, if they want to conquer it, it is not easy, what can those slaves do?" ”

Li Su said: "I circled around the foot of the mountain and found that there were cliffs all around, and there were Xianbei people guarding the cliffs; If they attack from the front, the casualties will be immeasurable, and they can cause dozens or even hundreds of casualties if they throw a boulder, and we will not be able to organize an attack at all. ”

Tian Feng said: "No matter what, we must capture Danhan Mountain, otherwise we can only return in vain." ”

Everyone understood the importance of occupying Danhan Mountain, but they all calmed down and pondered.

Li Su felt a little guilty and did not take advantage of the situation to attack Danhan Mountain, which caused today's difficulties.

Now the Xianbei people on the mountain already know that it is the Han border army that is coming, and they will definitely resist desperately.

After pondering for a while, Li Su suggested: "Military advisor, Su suggests that the physically strong people among the rescued Han people be formed into an army, and they will deal with the Xianbei people on the mountain, and we can continue to carry out the plan we made at the beginning." ”

Everyone has inspected the terrain around Danhan Mountain many times, if the road down the mountain is blocked, the Xianbei people on the mountain will not be able to break through smoothly, if they escape from the direction of the cliff, they will not be able to carry war horses and a large number of baggage, in the vast grassland, there is only a dead end.

And blocking the road down the mountain is very easy, so many soldiers, but very quickly build a wall, dig a few trenches, Xianbei people will be unable to escape, you know, defense is much easier than attack, not to mention the face of this easy to defend and difficult to attack Danhan Mountain.

Tian Feng thought about it carefully and said: "No, we can't fight a protracted war, we must fight quickly, otherwise just the logistics burden will drag us down." ”

What Tian Feng didn't say was that he was worried that the escaped Xianbei people had leaked the news, and if the western Xianbei or Helian kings took advantage of the situation to attack, Daijun and Shanggu would be ravaged, and even if they didn't attack the city, the losses outside the city alone would be incalculable.

Zhang Fei asked, "Strategist, is there any possibility of persuasion?" ”

Before Tian Feng could answer, Li Su took over and said: "Now Xianbei is in a strong state, and has a deep hatred with the Han Dynasty, it is impossible to surrender to the Han people, they know that if they surrender, they will be killed, so they would rather die in battle." ”

Just when everyone was worried, Sima Li Ran, the trapped camp army, got up and saluted Tian Feng, and then said: "Strategist, when I was inspecting, I found that the strength guarding the cliff on the mountain was very weak, and the personnel on duty were very slack, this is an opportunity that we can take advantage of; In the northeast corner of Danhan Mountain, the cliff is the highest, but there is a small raised platform in the middle, which is easy to climb, if you go up the mountain from here, and suddenly kill from behind, the enemy will inevitably be in chaos, if you can seize the intersection, then great things can be done; The only way to accomplish this task is to be trapped. ”

Tian Feng's face was serious, and he said in embarrassment: "To be able to climb the mountain, the physical exertion is very large, and there will not be many people who go up. And trapping the camp is the treasure of the prince, and it must not be risked, it can only be used at critical moments. ”

Li Ran said: "Military division, there are only more than 400 people in the camp, it is convenient to stealthily and stealth, and will not attract the attention of the Xianbei people, if we climb the cliff, then the Xianbei people who are good at horse warfare will not be our opponents in foot combat, and they will definitely be able to kill in front of the mountain and seize the junction fortress, which is the only way to defeat Danhan Mountain." ”

Tian Feng didn't want to return in vain, if he wanted to occupy Danhan Mountain, this was the easiest way, he thought for a while, agreed to Li Ran's suggestion, and said: "Okay, if you trap the camp and attack the cliff, it will be the first merit in this battle." ”

"Yes, Strategist!" Li Ran replied firmly.

Subsequently, Li Ran, Tian Feng and others discussed in detail every detail of climbing the cliff and raiding Ke Zi, and strived to be perfect.

In the next two days, all the supplies were prepared and drills were carried out so that each member of the trap camp became proficient in the skills of climbing.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, on the night, the bright moon hung high, and the moonlight illuminated the earth.

In the middle of the night, the officers and soldiers of Ge Hu and Li Ran's camp quietly left the camp and headed northeast of Danhan Mountain, accompanied by only one auxiliary soldier to help carry weapons and tools, etc., in order to avoid attracting the attention of the Xianbei people on the mountain, they all advanced on foot.

It was Li Su who cooperated with the battle this time, and if Ge Hu and Li Ran succeeded in their surprise attack, Li Su must lead the Wuhuan cavalry to rush up the mountain as soon as possible.

When they came to the predetermined position at the bottom of the mountain, all the people lay on the ground, and the five warriors who had been prepared for the climb began to climb with ropes on their backs.

In order to reduce the burden on their bodies, none of them wore armor and only carried a single knife for protection.

The moonlight is bright in front of the mountain, and the shadow behind the mountain is perfect for concealment. The five had carefully examined the situation on the cliff, and every step was firmly imprinted in their minds.

The five of them were like apes, their bodies were very light, and their climbing speed was very fast, and in just a quarter of an hour, they had climbed to a bulge more than 30 meters high.

Five large ropes hang down.

At this time, the auxiliaries of a she, carrying five rope ladders, were ready at the bottom of the cliff; When the rope hangs down, one end of the rope ladder is tied to the rope.

The five men on the cliff carried the rope ladder up the cliff and firmly fastened it to the bushes.

After resting for a while, the five trapped soldiers continued to climb, and the remaining section of the cliff was higher, more than fifty meters, making it more difficult to climb.

Below, there was a soldier of Shi, carrying five rope ladders, and climbed to the platform.

After half an hour, the big rope gradually hung down.

Fortunately, the cliff here is the highest, and the Xianbei people did not pay attention to it, so they did not arrange guard posts around, allowing the trapped camp to take advantage of the loophole.

The big rope hung down, Ge Hu and Li Ran knew that the five of them had succeeded, and their hanging hearts were finally put down, and great things could be expected.

Although Ge Hu is the military Sima of the trapped camp, he is more like Tian Feng's personal guard, and the specific management of the trapped camp is responsible for the military Sima Li Ran; The same is true of Dian Wei; Ge Hu and Dian Wei do not have the ability to manage, and they are happy to be idle.

In order to facilitate the battle with the trapped camp, Ge Hu changed his equipment and carried infantry weapons such as crossbows and short spears.

After the five rope ladders were secured, the trapped soldiers climbed in turn, wearing heavy armor and carrying only a single sword, and the other heavy weapons were lifted up the cliff by ropes, and then armed when they had climbed the cliff.

Drills have been done for a long time, and everyone is familiar with this skill, and the speed of climbing is very fast.

When he was halfway up the climb, Li Ran immediately sent someone to inform Tian Feng that it was going smoothly and everything was going according to plan.

All the personnel climbed the cliff, and it took two hours before and after.

Then came lamb, flatbread and water bags.

The water bag is wrapped in a thick sheepskin jacket and is still warm; The troops began to eat, replenish their physical strength, and wait for the total time to come.

The auxiliaries, composed of four sword and shield soldiers and one junior infantry, also climbed the cliffs, ready to fight with the trapped camp.

When Tian Feng received Li Ran's report, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly ordered everyone to follow the plan and start acting.

The most excited was none other than Li Su, who secretly made up his mind that he must lead the cavalry to rush up Danhan Mountain.
