At the moment when the barbarians were stunned, a strange change suddenly happened: there was a sudden sound of branches above the heads of the barbarians, and then countless cold rays screamed and swooped down from the top of their heads, and the barbarians on the mountain were actually stray arrows all over the sky!

"Plop Puff Plop Puff ......"

The barbarians were caught off guard, and they were hit by arrows one after another, blooming with blood flowers, and suddenly a miserable howl resounded through the jungle. The countless dead and wounded barbarians couldn't restrain their hands and feet, and fell down the steep whistle like a rolling gourd all the way down the steep whistle mountain!

"Watch your head, the enemy is in the tree!"

Qiang Zhu was deaf and clear-sighted, quickly avoided a stray arrow, and shouted hard! After all, the barbarians were well-trained, and they had been in the mountains for many years, so they reacted instantly, and when they looked up, countless South Vietnamese soldiers appeared on the towering ancient trees, and they all opened their bows and arrows to shoot fiercely at the barbarians!

The screams of ......the ground monsters shook the eardrums, and the arrows of the South Vietnamese army were a little too dense for a while, and from time to time there were barbarians screaming and being pierced through the bare heads, and some were shot straight to the point that their brains were splashed, which was unspeakably miserable! The barbarians were furious and immediately prepared to counterattack, at this time the barbarians found the embarrassment: the enemy troops were on the trees several zhang or even nearly ten zhang high, and all the barbarians were under the trees, the barbarians wanted to attack the enemy, but the weapons in their hands, whether they were swords, halberds or beryllium, could not frame the enemy at all, and the only place that could kill the enemy was crossbow arrows!

So, under the vigorous shouting of the generals of the Tsui Luo tribe, the barbarian crossbowmen immediately risked their lives to come forward and shoot hard at the South Vietnamese army on the tree! In an instant, arrows flew on the mountainside of Longwei Mountain, and the sound of killing shook the sky!

However, only a few thousand of the tens of thousands of barbarian troops were crossbowmen, and they were unsheltered on the ground, while tens of thousands of South Vietnamese troops hid in the trees and opened heavy fire on the Qin army. Coupled with its condescending advantage, it didn't take long for the barbarians to stand tall: the barbarians' crossbowmen couldn't shoot the South Vietnamese at all, and they were shot by the South Vietnamese army one after another in the dense and chaotic fire!

What's more, the South Vietnamese army even used weeds and vines to weave rope ladders one after another, connecting the big trees one by one, forming a vast and tightly planted fortress on the trees, and the South Vietnamese army moved freely on the trees, coming and going as if flying. For a moment, the barbarians only felt that there were enemies scurrying all over their heads.

It seems that if you hide in any corner, there will be deadly arrows whistling and flying! When the crossbowmen of the two armies exchanged shots, many brave barbarian foot soldiers were not to be outdone, and abandoned their long soldiers one after another, and struggled to climb the trees, trying to fight the South Vietnamese on the trees! It's a pity that when climbing the tree, the motivation of the barbarians was equal to zero, but they were shot down by the South Vietnamese army one by one, and it didn't take long. The barbarians will no longer be willing to die in vain!

Qiang Zhu and Meng Long were angry in their hearts, they were killed by the Han people in the southwest, and in this mountain, they even confronted the barbarians, they really didn't understand what these barbarians in the mountains thought, and they actually helped outsiders!

"Distant friends, you and I are brothers, believe us, we will avenge Luo Ying, and we will also protect our friends, you!"

On Longshou Mountain, Ye Yi sat with a person dressed in colorful clothes, who spoke a broken Chinese dialect and was very kind.

"Of course, hehe, you and I are brothers, as brothers, I always have to give my brothers some greeting gifts!"

Ye Yi smiled slightly, wiped the sweat on his head, and then clapped his hands in fear, and in a moment, dozens of Ye family guards came over carrying some boxes.

A gleam flashed in the man's eyes, and the corners of his mouth were grinning, very happy.

Ye Yi smiled slightly, and then pulled out the long knife on his waist, the man's face remained unchanged, just looking at Ye Yi, Ye Yi walked straight to the dozens of boxes, and between the lightning and fire, the lock of a box had been cut off.

"Bang!"

Ye Yi pressed the knife on the box, kicked it open, the sunlight shone, the golden light flashed, the man's eyes flashed with surprise, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became deeper and deeper.

"Haha, brother, these, and these, all belong to you!"

Ye Yi threw down the knife and looked at the barbarian, although there was mockery in his heart, his face looked extremely amiable.

"Good brother, let's see how my sons and daughters avenge you!"

The brute smiled happily, and then whistled, and the situation in the mountains became unpredictable again.

The soldiers of the South Vietnamese Army roared wildly, cutting off the heads of barbarians from time to time, and then looked at the men and horses of these parts defiantly!

For a time, tens of thousands of barbarians on this mountain were killed by the South Vietnamese army, and they had no power to fight back!

Qiang Zhu was furious. Pull the iron-tired bow behind his back and perform the magic skills passed down by his ancestors. An arrow was fired. With a "thud", the arrow pierced the throat of a South Vietnamese soldier, and the South Vietnamese soldier fell headlong from the tree without snorting, until his brain burst. Dead too much to die again!

Immediately afterwards, Qiang Zhu performed a double-bead stunt, and every time he bowed and shot with double arrows, shooting directly at the nearby South Vietnamese army like rain. Killed! When the South Vietnamese soldiers saw Qiang Zhu shooting like this, they were all frightened, and they did not dare to approach Qiang Zhu for a while, and they were whistling and pulling vines on the trees, leaping from one tree to another, or escaping to other trees through rope ladders extending in all directions!

Qiang Zhu was shooting vigorously, and suddenly touched the quiver with his right hand, which was already empty, and when he was taken aback, he looked around, and saw that the army under his command was in chaos, and it was completely a broken army, but it was resisting in vain due to the harsh military discipline.

Qiang Zhu knew that he couldn't do anything, stomped his feet viciously, and ordered unwillingly: "After the crossbow hand is broken, withdraw the army!" ”

The barbarians didn't want to stay in this ghost place for a moment, and when they heard the order to withdraw, under the tenacious cover of the crossbowmen, they swept down the mountain like a rushing tide!

At the foot of the mountain, Meng Long and the others suddenly heard the sound of killing halfway up the mountain, and immediately raised their hearts to their throats, and they didn't know what the battle situation was for a while, and they couldn't help but be very anxious. Suddenly, Meng Long saw from a distance that the brigade of barbarian soldiers retreated from the mountain in embarrassment, and his heart suddenly sank: "Damn, it's defeated, and I'm afraid it's quite miserable!" ”

Sure enough, after a while, the gray-faced An Hu was the first to walk down, looked at Meng Long with a depressed face, and then fell to the ground with a "plop" and said astringently: "The king, the last general is incompetent, and he will return in defeat, and please deal with it with the king!" ”

Meng Long glanced at him, then patted him on the shoulder, and said in a low voice: "The general doesn't have to blame himself, I can't see the situation on the mountain clearly, how did the army lose?" ”

An Hu then depressedly recounted the defeat in detail. The generals, including Meng Long, couldn't help but widen their eyes for a while, and said in their hearts: "What, this battle can still be fought like this!?" ”

Meng Long also said a little sleepy: "This king has led the army for many years, crisscrossing the southwest, and has not tasted defeat, but I didn't expect that since I entered Lingnan, I have been frustrated again and again, and this 'building a tree for the city, and defending the palace in a chain' is even more unheard of, and it is not unjust to lose!" ”

Qiang Zhu also said a little depressedly: "The enemy army is condescending, the distant ones kill the enemy with bows and arrows, and the near ones use short swords to fight hand-to-hand, which can be said to have taken advantage of the whole Longwei Mountain, and turned the entire Longwei Mountain into a strong city, how can this be good!" ”

An Hu also scratched his head a little and said: "If the city is better, set up equipment to attack the city!" It's just that this mountain is rugged and precipitous, and it is difficult to use any equipment, and the height of the trees is no less than that of any city, so our army has a million male soldiers, and it is helpless to reach the enemy! ”

Meng Long thought for a moment when he heard this: "This tactic of the South Vietnamese Army perfectly combines its own strengths and geographical advantages, if it attacks head-on, the possibility of victory is extremely small!" The best way to crack it is to attack with fire! ”

Qiang Zhu nodded when he heard the words and said, "What King Meng said is exactly what I want!" The forest is located on the mountainside, with plenty of sunlight, dry air, and trees such as Pinus tabuliformis, which are easy to catch fire! It's just that this king is a little worried, if the fire starts and spreads, I'm afraid the disaster will be not small! ”

An Hu said with some disapproval: "As long as you can defeat those South Vietnamese, why not attack a few more barren mountains!" ”

Meng Long shook his head and said, "This king is not worried about this, but he is just worried that once this forest fire burns out, it will get out of control!" Our army's camps are all set up by the sparsely wooded river, and the camp will not have a problem, but once this forest fire is about to burn, if it spreads throughout the mountains and burns off our army's food road, it will be a big trouble! This mountain trail is already narrow, and it takes too much time to repair! In the event of a fire on Longwei Mountain, the South Vietnamese Army can still resist as long as it retreats to the top of the hill without fire, and if the war drags on, our army will not be in danger of running out of food, and it must be investigated! ”

Qiang Zhu nodded when he heard this: "This is indeed worrying, but you can rest assured, this king has a way to prevent the forest fire from spreading!" ”

"Oh? What's your magic point, tell me quickly? ”

"My army can enclose the north, west and east sides of Longwei Mountain, build a fire barrier around the mountain, about ten zhang wide, remove the trees on the fire barrier belt, and then send troops to garrison along the line, so that the forest fire will burn up, and it will only burn Longwei Mountain into a bald mountain, and it will not spread out!"

Only then did Meng Long remember that Qiang Zhu's brain was also very sufficient, and such a small project should not be difficult for him. Hurriedly asked, "Great, General, I don't know how long it will take to build this fire belt?" ”

Qiang Zhu pondered for a moment and said: "According to the sand table drawn by the soldiers, the north, west and east sides of Longwei Mountain are about twenty miles long, and our army uses 100,000 troops to prevent the Yue people on the mountain from attacking and harassing, and another 100,000 people to build a fire barrier, about one day is enough!" ”

Meng Long nodded, and clapped his head: "Okay, tomorrow the general will arrange to build a fire belt, and this king wants to let the South Vietnamese people taste the taste of burning their butts!" ”

Hahaha...... The generals laughed. After spending a day building the fire barrier, the barbarians did not want to wait for a night, so they sprinkled fire oil and sulfur all over the foot of Longwei Mountain and began to set fire.

In an instant, Meng Long gave an order, and fire dragons rose from the north, west, and east of Longwei Mountain, rolling and roaring in the night wind towards the mountainside. The sky-high flames soared into the sky, illuminating the dark night sky as bright as day, and the stars that had been shining in the night sky suddenly looked dull under the light of the furious forest fire. Faintly, the barbarians at the foot of the mountain heard the panicked shouts of the South Vietnamese army from the mountainside, and they couldn't help but rejoice and curse loudly at the foot of the mountain! Early the next morning, when Meng Long and the generals got up to take a look, the entire Longwei Mountain was almost burned to the ground, and as far as the eye could see, the entire mountain was black and mushy, and there were ashes left behind after burning everywhere and the remaining smoke that was still curling on its own!

Meng Long smiled bitterly: "It's really a fierce battle, yesterday it was a green mountain, but today it has become a red land, my ability to set fire is really no less than Qin Wen!" ”

At night, the barbarian camp at the foot of Longwei Mountain. A 'wolf's tooth' warrior bowed to the ground and said respectfully: "King Qiyu, the villain and others sneaked into the southern foot of Longwei Mountain, and after carefully inspecting the terrain, they found that the cliff at the southern foot is about 260 zhang high, and its danger and steepness are indeed very suitable for people to climb, but my 'wolf's tooth' should be able to climb to the top with the help of flying grabbing, lasso and other equipment!" ”

Meng Long nodded when he heard this, and asked carefully, "Have you tried it yourself?" How many hours does it take? Is there a guard at the top of the cliff? ”

"The last general tried it in person at night, it took about two hours or so, there were no guards on the cliff, only occasionally patrols passed by, and the South Vietnamese seemed to be extremely relieved about the southern foothills!"

"Good! God help me! ”

Meng Long couldn't help but get up, pacing back and forth in the tent, his excitement overflowing!

An Hu said: "Has the king made up his mind to use the 'wolf teeth' to attack the enemy's back from the southern foot of Longwei Mountain?" ”

Meng Long nodded and said: "Yes, tens of thousands of South Vietnamese troops retreated to the top of the cliff, and the strong attack will inevitably cause great casualties, so it is better to outwit it!" ”

An Hu hesitated a little and said: "King, I feel that something is wrong!" The southern foothills of the mountain are extremely dangerous, even if the 'wolf's teeth' department has the ability to climb it, if half of the Vietnamese army is discovered by the South Vietnamese army patrol, I am afraid that this hundred elite soldiers will have to be buried in it! Besides, there are still tens of thousands of South Vietnamese troops on the cliff, and tens of thousands of 1,000 'wolf's teeth' enemies, even if they only disturb the enemy army for a moment, I am afraid that the casualties will be very great! Isn't it too risky? ”

Meng Long frowned and said, "Then what do you mean......?" ”

An Hu said: "According to the meaning of the next, now Longwei Mountain is unobstructed, and any movement of our army by the South Vietnamese Army can be seen clearly, so we might as well besiege Longwei Mountain on all sides and cut off the enemy's Longgu grain route." The enemy army has no food, and there is only one mountain spring on the mountain, which cannot be used for tens of thousands of South Vietnamese troops to drink for a long time, so it is expected that in about a month, Longwei Mountain will inevitably run out of food and water, and then our army will attack the enemy with surprise troops. The army responds head-on, and it is expected that the barbarian army can be annihilated in one drum! ”

Meng Long said in his heart: "This is a foolproof strategy!" But he hesitated for a moment and said: "It's just that this is too time-consuming, now the situation in the southwest is unstable, and the king is worried about the long nights and dreams, and he just wants to fight quickly!" ”

But he hesitated for a moment and said: "It's just that this is too time-consuming, and now the situation in the southwest is unstable, and this king is worried about the long nights and dreams, and he just wants to fight quickly!" ”

Qiang Zhu thought for a while and said: "What An Hu said is very true, although this plan is time-consuming, it is extremely safe!" As for the southwest affairs, I think there will be too much change in the short term, and you and I don't need to worry too much! ”

An Hu also said: "Yes." The king, the last general thinks the same way! Our army should now try to preserve its strength as much as possible! ”

Meng Long also knew in his heart that steady and steady fighting was conducive to preserving troops, but if everything was so cautious, in case there was a change in the southwest, and South Vietnam was still fighting like tea, how would it be good! Returning to the Central Plains means that all previous achievements are wasted; If you continue to pacify Lingnan, you will lose a great opportunity to compete in the Central Plains! For a moment, Meng Long couldn't help but hesitate!

At this moment, the soldiers outside the tent reported: "King Qiqi, there is an urgent letter from the West Sea!" ”

The generals were suddenly shocked again. The heart said: "Is there something wrong again?" ”

Meng Long was also anxious, and hurriedly said, "Hurry up!" ”

The soldiers entered the account and presented the secret documents. Meng Long quickly dismantled it. After only a brief look, his face suddenly turned like dirt. I couldn't make a sound for a long time. As soon as An Hu was about to get up again, Fu Su waved his hand, and An Hu sat down. After these days of contact, the generals have come to regard An Hu as their own. It doesn't hurt to let him participate in important military aircraft! The generals suddenly felt that the situation was not a little bad, and Qiang Zhu hurriedly said: "Could it be that something happened in the West Sea again?" ”

Meng Long smiled bitterly: "Not just one, it's three!" ”

The generals' hearts sank suddenly, and Qiang Zhu hurriedly said: "What is the matter? ”

Meng Long sighed, and said with tears in his eyes: "First thing: Lao Wang Mengqi has died of illness at his home in Pingyang, and the people from the Tsui Luo Department have personally gone to mourn when they hear the news!" ”

When the generals heard this, they were speechless, and their complexions changed dramatically! Meng Qi has a high prestige among the barbarians in the southwest, and although he has gone into hiding, his existence is a great spiritual support for the righteous people in the southwest; Moreover, Meng Qi has been in the army for decades, and the old troops in the army are all over the world, as long as he raises his arms and shouts, the servants gather, which can be described as a great deterrent to Xiaoxiao; What is even more commendable is that everyone has always maintained an attitude of respect and trust towards Meng Qi, as long as Meng Qi comes out to speak, everyone will definitely consider his opinion, which should be a kind of restraint for the southwestern provinces.

And now with his passing, Meng Wu has disappeared again, and Meng Long is far away in the Southern Wilderness, and the situation in the DPRK and China may slide even more into an unpredictable abyss! Qiang Zhu suddenly fell to his knees with a "plop", tears welling up: "Boss! ”

Immediately he began to cry bitterly. The generals have also listened to orders under Meng Qi for many years, and many of them have been promoted by Meng Qi, and at this time, they can't help but kneel on the ground together, look at the north from afar, and cry bitterly!

Meng Long was also swept away by this sad atmosphere at this time, and tears suddenly couldn't help but flow slowly out of his eyes, Meng Long closed his eyes, and let the tears of sadness slide through his cheeks and slide down on the fertile soil of the Southern Wilderness! After a long time, Meng Long suppressed his sad voice and said astringently: "Generals, this king is the son-in-law of King Mengwu, and he is also half of the son of the old king. ”

Meng Long stood up with some pathos, and bowed to the generals with his clothes!

"King!" The generals couldn't help but feel more sad and tears even more turbulent! Meng Long stood up and said sadly: "All the generals get up, the old king is over eighty years old, and his military exploits are in the world. Someone came, pass on my general order, spread the news of King Mengwu's death to the three armies, and order the three armies to hang filial piety, and keep filial piety for the old king for three days, and do not move in these three days! ”“

Here! ”

The soldiers outside the door were also very sad, weeping and giving orders!
