After learning that Liu Qi's army appeared in the Guanghan region, although Zhuge Liang knew that Liu Qi must be brewing some conspiracy, but because he was not particularly familiar with the geography of Xichuan, he later asked some local people, and no one thought that there would be any path for Liu Qi's army to sneak attack Wudu or bypass Yangping Pass to Hanzhong, so after solemnly warning Fu Jian and Shenwolf Qiang Ore not to go to war without authorization, he began to plan to attack Hanzhong.

Zhuge Liang first ordered Zhang Fei to lead an army to attack Baozhong to see if Huang Zhong and Hanzhong Taishou Li Dian would send reinforcements. Liu Bei obeyed Zhuge Liang's construction, and ordered Zhang Fei to attack Baozhong, but there was no reinforcement, and Baozhong was captured by Zhang Fei.

Liu Bei was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately decided that the army would attack Nanzheng, so he left Zhao Yun to lead an army of 20,000 to guard Dingjun Mountain, and personally led Zhuge Liang, Chen Dao, Qubei and others, together with Zhang Fei's army and Liu Feng's army who was defeated back to Hanzhong, a total of 100,000 people to besiege Nanzheng.

In order to cut off the connection between Hanzhong and Yizhou, Liu Bei ordered Liu Feng and Qubei to lead an army of 20,000 to attack Yangping Pass, but he did not expect that Huo Jun, the main general of Yangping Pass, would defend it with danger, and Liu Feng lost five or six thousand people in vain and did not capture this pass, so he had no choice but to retreat.

Zhuge Liang couldn't blame Liu Feng after hearing the news, and after thinking about it for a while, he asked Liu Feng and the army to ambush in a dense forest near Yangping Pass, in case Liu Qi led the army to aid Nanzheng from the direction of Yangping Pass.

After that, Zhuge Liang, under the authorization of Liu Bei, led an army of 80,000 to storm Nanzheng, and Li Dian, the Taishou of Hanzhong, had already received Liu Qi's secret order at this time. Let him defend against danger and never fight, so although he knows that foreign aid is cut off now. But it is also an iron heart to defend Nanzheng.

Li Dian is also worthy of a generation of famous generals, and he actually did not leak the entire Nanzheng City guard, and Liu Bei's army used all the methods of digging tunnels, building earth mountains, burning, and flooding, but still did not break through the city defense of Nanzheng, and finally had to decide to attack when there was no way.

However, in this way, although Li Dian's defenders did suffer very strict losses, Liu Bei's army suffered even more losses. But despite this, there are fewer and fewer new forces available on Li Diancheng's head. The most terrible thing is that the food and grass in the city are only enough for half a month's payment at most, and within this half a month, not to mention that the enemy army will launch a strong attack every day. Even if it is trapped, I am afraid that Nanzheng City will definitely not be able to keep it at that time.

And just when there was a fierce offensive and defensive battle under the city of Nanzheng, the army under Liu Qi came to a desolate and precipitous place.

This place is called Yin Ping Road!

In fact, although the name is "Dao", there is actually no road to find a place, to be precise, because of the long-term slack, the road here has long been extremely dilapidated, and even some sections of the road have no passage at all.

Because of this, even the local natives never thought that anyone would be able to get through guò from here. And if it was an army of 30,000 people from here, it would be absolutely impossible, so when Zhuge Liang deliberately asked the local soldiers of Yinping. When there was another march route from Guanghan County to the subject state of Guanghan, no one could think of it at all.

But Liu Qi knew that there was such a road, and when he asked hundreds of local people, an old farmer remembered that there was such a road that was not a "way" at all.

When the old farmer's son arrived exhausted, Liu Qi's army was presented with a steep and unusual passage: the road clung to the cliffs, and on the other side were bottomless cliffs. In the narrowest places, the road is no more than a foot wide, not to mention horses. It is difficult for people to walk on it, and what is even worse is that many places are already dilapidated, the road is slippery and difficult to walk, and if you don't pay attention, you will fall into the valley and fall to pieces.

Seeing such a precipitous place, even the Praetorian Guards, who had traveled all over the poor mountains and rivers, couldn't help but gasp, but they didn't feel frightened by it, because they saw that their lord was also walking a dangerous road with them.

"Soldiers, although the road ahead is difficult and dangerous, but as long as we are careful, we can still pass safely, everyone must believe that as long as we walk this road, we can attack those Qianghu behind the back, as long as they are defeated, our army will be able to enter the Wudu, and then we will cut off Liu Bei's back road, and we will achieve a decisive victory in this battle. People who do not die, but the same is death, some are heavier than Mount Tai, and some are lighter than the feathers, today we all pass through here, although it is unavoidably dangerous, but we are fighting this time is the value, heavier than Mount Tai, because from then on, Hanzhong will completely achieve peace, Liu Bei's army can only shrink in the pass, waiting for him only to perish. ”

Liu Qi saw that everyone's feelings began to gradually improve, and then he struck while the iron was hot and said: "Lone assures all the soldiers who cross this ancient road, this time all the soldiers who cross this ancient road, as long as you don't become a deserter, everyone will have a reward of 1,000 yuan, if anyone is unfortunately killed, another subsidy of 2,000 yuan, rice and ten stones, and the death pension will be correct, I hope everyone will lift their spirits, break through this Yinping ancient road with a fearless spirit, create a miracle in the history of zào, and then defeat the enemy unexpectedly, so that the enemy knows that he is afraid. No longer dare to seek our land. ”

Liu Qi can have such a generous reward, many soldiers have long been moved by it, coupled with Liu Qi's encouragement just now, although some of the soldiers of the three armies are still worried in their hearts, they are all unhesitating He embarked on this difficult ancient road.

The soldiers in Liu Qi's army were originally united with each other, and today's difficult road made them unite as one, holding hands with each other, forming a solid city wall, and slowly moving forward.

And Liu Qi's 10,000 Praetorian Guards were the first to go, not only carrying several days' rations on their bodies, but also heavy iron knives, in addition to carrying wooden planks, wooden sticks, axes and chisels and other things in their hands, so that when the road was dangerous or there was no road, they could dig the mountain and start to build bridges and pave the road.

For this team, the day is actually not difficult, the most frightening thing is the night, because the road is difficult, no one dares to move a step, but also take turns to rest, one of the two people next to each other remains not sleeping, and the other person is leaning on the shoulder of the person who does not sleep for a while, during the nap is naturally taken care of by the person who does not sleep, for fear of accidentally falling into the valley, and then wait for the person to rest a little, and then continue to let the second person rest, so that the back and forth rotation, overnight can not rest for long, and then continue to hurry when it comes to the destiny.

Of course, this is not absolutely safe, and on the way, many soldiers turned over or other similar exaggerated actions after falling asleep, resulting in their companions falling into the valley with them, leaving both of them with no bones......

Along the way, although only about 300 people unfortunately fell to their deaths, it brought extremely heavy pressure to the whole army, and they would rather fight the enemy to the death on the battlefield than endure this kind of torment here.

Starting from the Motianling Ridge dozens of miles outside Baishui City, to the Biqu Pavilion of the Yinping Ancient Road www.biquge.info Yinping County, with a total length of more than 200 miles, Liu Qi's army overcame thorns and thorns along the way, paved roads and bridges, experienced many dangers, and finally arrived at the suburbs of Yinping County after ten days.

It wasn't until he set foot on the vast land that the hearts of the soldiers of the three armies that had been hanging for a long time finally let go completely. These ten days are simply longer than ten years for them, and they have to be cautious and worried every day, for fear that they will fall to pieces if they are not careful, they will not sleep at ease, they will not eat sweetly, their spirits will be highly concentrated, sweat will wet their clothes again and again, and everyone's body will exude a smell of sweat......

But at this time, they had already ignored this, and they were all happy for the rest of their lives, glad that God had allowed them to survive, and it was only then that they remembered to thank the Praetorian Guards who had been quietly opening the way and building bridges in front, without their efforts, this army would never have been able to achieve victory so lightly.

Of the more than 300 sergeants who fell into the valley, the Praetorian Guards alone accounted for nearly eighty percent, and most of them unfortunately fell into the valley when they opened the road and built a bridge.

Liu Qi's Praetorian Guard is the elite of the elite, and there are few casualties in peacetime battles, even if they conquered the entire Yizhou at the beginning, they only lost more than 500 people, but now they have lost nearly 300 people just by taking a trip to the Yinping Ancient Road, which is more than half of the number of people lost in the entire Yizhou, which shows how heavy their losses should be this time?

All the soldiers understood this, and it was precisely because of this that after successfully conquering this Yinping Ancient Road, these soldiers who survived the catastrophe, even including Chu Gong Liu Qi, Shang Shuling Jia Xu, Weiwei Chen, Fubo General Gan Ning and others all looked solemn, and paid tribute to those soldiers who died unfortunately at the www.biquge.info of the Biqu Pavilion of the Yinping Ancient Road.

"Brothers, your lives will not be in vain, please believe that Lone will completely defeat the enemy, so that they will not dare to peep into my Hanzhong for the rest of their lives, so as to pay tribute to your heroic spirits." Liu Qi's eyes flashed with tears, and he choked up.

And just when Liu Qi said this, all the soldiers were almost repeating similar words in their hearts, and they almost made up their minds at the same time: as long as we have a breath of air, we will never let the enemy invade our territory and plunder our people, and we will always remember what a thrilling effort we have made to defeat the enemy! And how did you create a miracle in history?

"Soldiers, let's take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness and seize Yinping City in one go. Then march to Guangwu and completely defeat the Qianghu soldiers and horses who invaded our prefectures and counties, so that they can also see the magic and invincibility of our Han Dynasty. Liu Qi stood on a small hill, brandished the war knife in his hand, and said to the soldiers in a low voice. (To be continued)
