Chapter 236: Bloody Battle Flying Fox Mouth

"Lord, in front of you is Daicheng! To the east of Dai County is Shenbei, which originally belonged to the northern part of Yanmen County of the former Han Dynasty! ”

Lu Chang stood beside Wei Shuo to introduce the latest military situation of the army, the Jin army set out from Zhuolu, crossed the Sanggan River (the upper reaches of the Yongding River are called the Sanggan River) to the southwest, and marched all the way, but in a few days arrived at the county seat of Dai County (now Wei County) at the northern foot of Heng Mountain.

Since Liu Kun moved the people to the south of Juzhu Mountain, Tuoba Xianbei occupied the north of Shanxi, and the military demarcation line with the Jin Dynasty was moved from the south of the Great Wall to the line of Yanmen Mountain, fortunately, Liu Kun knew the importance of Yanmen Pass and firmly controlled the entire pass in his own hands.

According to the action plan formulated by the previous Military Division, the main force of the Liaodong Army will immediately send troops to the north of Yanmen Pass after recovering Daijun, and in order not to conflict with the state, the Liaodong Army will not go south to Yanmen Pass for the time being.

In the past half a year, Wei Shuo has been reorganizing troops and horses in Youzhou, and from the nearly 900,000 people in Youzhou, he has obtained a total of 42,000 soldiers and 60,000 government soldiers.

The only pity is that only half of the soldiers have completed the change of clothes and training, and basically all of them are sent by him to fight in Daijun, so that the recruits can go through actual combat.

"Is there a military report in the direction of Flying Fox Mouth?"

"No, there's not been any movement over there yet."

Lu Chang saw that Wei Shuo's face showed a worried look, and hurriedly comforted: "The lord doesn't need to worry, Sun Sima is resourceful, and with the intention of calculating and unintentional, a sneak attack on a pass is just a gesture." ”

"Whew!" Wei Shuo took a deep breath, looked at the majestic Hengshan Mountain Range in the south, and said with a little worry in his tone: "Flying Fox Mouth...... Flying Fox Pass is a place where soldiers must fight, and it is a shortcut for Youyan to enter Jin, and Xianbei people will definitely be heavily armed! Sun Wei has a total of only 9,000 soldiers and horses, after all, there are still a few, in case of a sneak attack, I am afraid that I will fall into a bitter battle, and I don't know if the Youzhou soldiers who have just completed the reorganization can withstand the test. ”

……

"There's the Flying Fox Mouth ahead. Can there be Xianbei people stationed here? ”

Sun Wei pointed to the undulating and steep mountain in front of him, and whispered to the scout beside him.

In front is the Taihang Mountain that separates the Hedong Mountains and the Hebei Plain, between the towering mountains of Taihang, there are several valley holes, traversing the east and west of Taihang, and it has been a place for soldiers to fight for since ancient times. And this flying fox mouth. It is located at the junction of Taihang Mountain, Yan Mountain and Heng Mountain, and its military value is more important. Moreover, the terrain of the Flying Fox Pass is very steep, the widest part is only 70 or 80 meters to 100 meters, and the narrowest part is only 2 to 3 meters, and you can only miss an ox cart and mule!

Easy to defend and difficult to attack, you can see it!

"Returning to the army Sima, there are a total of 800 Xianbei people stationed on the pass."

"Eight hundred?"

Sun Wei frowned when he heard this, feeling a little bad. With 800 defenders and the dangerous pass of Xiongguan, with only 6,000 sword and shield soldiers in his hands, a frontal assault may not necessarily be able to take the Flying Fox Pass. But at the current point, the Liaodong Army can't afford to retreat, no matter what the price is, it must take the Flying Fox Pass.

In less than a while, the mouth of the flying fox, which was still silent just now, shouted killing in the blink of an eye. Six thousand sword and shield soldiers braved the rain of arrows of the Xianbei people, under the cover of three thousand cavalry as crossbowmen. One after another, they poured up the wall.

For a while, the arrows were like rain and stones were flying. Under the stubborn resistance of the Xianbei people, the Jin army besieging the city suffered heavy losses, and the Flying Fox Pass remained unmoved.

"What a hero! My Liaodong army attacked several times but returned in vain, I thought that Hu Lu was not good at defending the city, and Tuoba Xianbei, who didn't want to close it, was not weak to my Han family! ”

Sun Wei's face was gloomy, and he saw that the battlefield was in a state of anxiety. The Jin army couldn't hold the wall for a while, and suddenly shouted: "Come on, take my armor!" ”

Sun Wei planned to go into battle in person, but he frightened the accompanying guards and the people who joined the army. On the battlefield, there are constant arrows, and it is impossible to prevent them. From time to time, rolling logs and stones are thrown down on the city, and if the Lord will have a good and bad day, and he will be held accountable in the future, who can afford it from all the people present?

The recorder immediately dissuaded the army, "Your Excellency, you are the commander of the first army, how can you personally charge into battle?" ”

Several other soldiers and guards stood in front of Sun Wei, begging him again and again not to go into battle.

Sun Wei seemed to be really angry, twisted his eyebrows and shouted: "Wait for you to get out of the way, I want to lead my son to kill the flying fox!" ”

Of course, Sun Wei didn't really want to go into battle in person, he wanted to use this to arouse the blood of his subordinates! The Youzhou Xiang Army and the Fu Soldiers have just completed their reorganization, although their grassroots generals are all veterans of the Liaodong Army, but after all, most of them are new soldiers, and they are far inferior to the veterans of Liaodong in terms of fighting will and fighting skills.

Sure enough, generals at all levels, large and small, were aroused by Sun Wei's blood, and they all took the initiative to ask for battle, "Please watch the enemy formation for us, don't break through the city, and never take half a step back!" ”

Sun Wei thrust the spear in his hand into the ground, and the heavy spear slammed into the ground half a foot, and shouted in a deep voice: "Okay, with this gun as a line, all the officers and soldiers of our three armies should move forward with their lives, and those who take a step back from this line will be killed!" ”

The main general personally supervised the battle before the battle, and the soldiers of the Jin army saw such a battle, how could there be anyone who did not swear to serve to the death? Immediately, a wave of offensive was launched, and people were constantly shot by arrows, and people were constantly smashed into flesh by the boulders that were thrown. As soon as someone dies, someone immediately replenishes it, just like the endless waves of the sea roaring and hitting the Xianbei people's defense line over and over again.

"Kill! Kill! Kill! ”

The Jin troops under the city all had red eyes, roared angrily and frantically rushed to the pass. And the Xianbei people in the city kept shooting arrows under the city, and at the same time did not forget to pick up huge stones with their hands and smash them at the Jin army, trying to stop the Jin army from constantly climbing up the pass.

The enemy and us fought extremely fiercely around the Flying Fox Pass, and the 6,000 sword and shield soldiers brought by Sun Wei were all strictly selected elites, but in just one hour, they lost about 1,500 people.

The Jin army suffered heavy losses, and the Xianbei people on the pass were also not easy, and from time to time there were all kinds of exclamations, and the feather arrows of the Jin army covering the attack did not stop pouring towards the pass for a moment. The Xianbei people in the city could only hide behind the giant shield and throw stones to water it, but the feather arrows shot by the Jin army were so dense that if they showed their bodies slightly, they would be shot, and then let out a scream and fell to the ground and died.

After a period of attrition, the defenders of Feihukou have really reached the point of running out of oil, and the casualties are no less than 300 people, if there are no reinforcements, Feihukou will definitely fall into the hands of the Jin army.

The offensive and defensive battle of Flying Fox Pass finally came to the last moment, and the Xianbei people who were responsible for defending the city had been injured and damaged. And the casualties of the Jin army were also not light, the grassroots officers of the 6,000-person sword and shield soldiers, the backbone, lost almost half, and the ordinary soldiers were injured nearly one-third, which shows how tragic this battle was!

However, this battle was not without gains, at least after the baptism of this battle, the 6,000 sword and shield soldiers will completely transform from recruits to veterans, and if they encounter the same battle in the future, their losses will definitely not be as great as today.

Sun Wei seemed to sense that his opponent had reached the point of exhaustion, and he was determined to deliver a fatal blow to his enemy.

As a general, once you make up your mind, you will no longer hide it, and you will continue to the end without hesitation until you achieve your pre-war goals.

Then the Jin army launched the last offensive, and successfully climbed the wall, and soon the gate let out an earth-shattering cheer!

Break the level!

Close and close, everywhere is the earth-shattering cheers of the Jin army!

And the cavalry under the pass even pulled out the saber at his waist, and climbed the city wall along the ladder without waiting for the sword and shield soldiers to open the pass!

The Xianbei people who defended the city finally reached the end of the road, and they all dropped their weapons, no longer caring about whether they were guarding the pass or not, and just wanted to escape from the flying fox mouth like hell as soon as possible. And some clever Xianbei people took advantage of the chaos to seize the horses in the pass, intending to rush out of the pass. It's a pity that it was used as a moving target by the Jin cavalry who had entered the pass, and they shot off their horses one after another.

Although they paid a heavy price, fortunately, the Liaodong Jin army successfully took the Flying Fox Pass. Sun Wei stood on the pass, looking at the bloodstained wall, and finally breathed a sigh of relief. He placed the casualties in the pass, and at the same time, in view of the heavy casualties of the sword and shield soldiers, they were no longer able to fight, Sun Wei decided to leave the remaining sword and shield soldiers to guard the Flying Fox Pass.

Taking the Flying Fox Pass is equivalent to opening the south entrance of the Flying Fox Valley, which leads directly to the border plug, and Sun Wei took 3,000 cavalry and went north along the Flying Fox Valley to prepare to reach Dai County. (To be continued.) )
