Chapter 111: The Mountains Are in Sight

"General Deng!" Deng Ai happened to wake up from his sleep, and the light at noon was gentle and diffuse, making people lazy and tight, but this call made Deng Ai lift his spirits. This is Han Ping's voice, Han Ping led the scouts to go all morning, but at this moment he is back, but Deng Ai is busy sleeping for a while.

Han Ping called Deng Ai outside the tent, and after a while, Deng Ai came out of the tent, but Deng Ai's sleepy eyes did not cover a spirit from the inside out: "How is it?" What did you find? ”

Han Ping said excitedly: "The last general led the scouts to search for a morning, and finally found a very low cliff in a valley thirty miles away from here, very close to the water!" The upper and lower heights only need to be connected by two rope ladders! ”

Deng Ai's eyebrows fluttered, and he said loudly: "Okay! Order, all the armies quickly prepare and set off immediately! When Deng Ai heard the news, where would there be a delay, he hurriedly led the sergeants to pack up the camp and went straight to the place Han Ping said.

The mountain is difficult to walk, the mountain road is narrow and slippery, and a group of military horses arrived here, but it was also close to night. Deng Ai looked at the water in front of him at the foot of the mountain, and was extremely excited at the moment, if he could reach the mountain capital as soon as possible, Wancheng's set goal, this would be a great achievement!

Deng Ai couldn't wait: "Order!" Go down the rope ladder, prepare the torches, and go down the mountain overnight! ”

Han Ping's eyes widened: "General, are you in a hurry?" If there is a Cao army patrolling on the other side and sees torches on the mountain, they will definitely know that it is our army, and once the enemy army is prepared, it will be difficult for us to make a surprise attack! ”

Deng Ai wanted to go down the mountain overnight, and he could still buy a little time, but after listening to Han Ping's words at this moment, he also knew that it made perfect sense, and he would only be late for one night if he wanted to come. When you don't miss a big thing. So, following Han Ping's advice, he ordered the whole army to camp on the spot.

Huo Yi fought with Xu Huang for more than 300 rounds in front of Xiangyang City, but he relied on his youth and light body to fight with Xu Chu, Xu Chu had all his strength, but he couldn't handle this slippery boy, and he knew that he couldn't help it, and it was almost night. Although the two fought lively, insiders knew very clearly at a glance that Huo Yi had never confronted Xu Chu head-on at all, but just played a black gun and flew up and fought on the outside.

But in the eyes of ordinary soldiers. This is amazing, all the officers and soldiers of the Jingzhou army know that Huo Yi has not been defeated in several battles. There are also a lot of generals who have been damaged in their hands. But the name of the tiger idiot is a frightening existence, that is, Ma Chao, the five tiger generals who are far away in the area of Shuzhong and Linfang, and they also talk about the tiger's color change, which shows the sharpness of his people.

But when Huo Yi was a weak champion, he was inseparable from Xu Chu. Even looking at the momentum, they were actually in the initiative, but the sergeants shouted and shouted.

The soldiers of the Cao army were silent, which really disappointed them too much. I thought that as soon as Xu Chu came out, he would immediately defeat Huo Yi, but he never thought that after fighting for a long time, Xu Chu blew his beard and stared, but he didn't even touch a single hair of Huo Yi, isn't this frustrating? You know, round of force, Xu Chu recognized the second in Cao Jun, and no one dared to admit the first, it turns out that this white horse junior in the Southern Barbarians is so powerful?

In addition, Huo Yi fought in Hanzhong before, killed Xu Huang, shot and injured Zhang He, and killed Xiahou Yuan, who was far away from Guanzhong, and did not dare to turn his head. Cao Jun has already listed Huo Yi as the world's fierce general.

It was almost evening, but Huo Yi was holding on to the gun: "General Xu don't rest!" It's getting late, I'll fight again tomorrow! ”

Where was Xu Chu willing to let Huo Yi leave, but he shouted: "Boy! Don't get cheap and sell well, if you go head-to-head with grandpa, probably grandpa won't chop off your head! ”

Huo Yi said with a smile: "Tiger idiot, tiger idiot, really stupid, in the name of the world's fierce generals, you bullied me a weak-crowned young man, aren't you panicking?" Hum! If you want me to go head-to-head, go to your camp and find someone of my age, and I'll confront him head-on, and never take half a step back! ”

Xu Chu is a martial artist, if it comes to fighting and charging, he is a good hand, but when it comes to lip service, where is Huo Yi's opponent, Xu Chu just snorted coldly, but he turned around and got on the horse first.

Huo Yi was stunned by the behavior of the tiger idiot, and thought to himself, this tiger idiot is really a good man, he didn't provoke him twice, he actually left first, you must know that this is in front of the two armies, and Xu Chu should go first, which is equivalent to admitting defeat.

Sure enough, when Xu Chu turned around, the momentum of the two armies was immediately different, and the Jingzhou army was killing the sky, and the momentum was like a rainbow. Then Cao Jun stood silently and solemnly, without making a sound.

Huo Yi didn't think much about it, and turned his horse back to the battle.

In this battle, Huo Yi gained a lot, his marksmanship was exquisite, and he was good at exerting the maximum power with the least effort. However, Xu Chu's knife is heavy, and this knife method is purely based on strength to win, but it is the sharpest and most enjoyable means of killing people in the battle array. When fighting, this guy even showed a nimble that didn't match his size at all. I struggled for a long time, but I didn't find any fatal flaws. It's strange that the tiger idiot can fight with Jin Ma Chao for a long time, so that Ma Chao also wants to talk about the tiger's color change.

Huo Yi's return to the city caused the soldiers of the three armies to roar, and tens of thousands of soldiers shouted a person's name in unison, which was really exciting, and it also made Huo Yi feel a lot of pressure, how long can he maintain his reputation for constant victory?

Although today's luck forced Xu Chu to retreat first, which can be regarded as maintaining the reputation of victory, in fact, Huo Yi is very clear that he will not win.

Huo Yi glanced at the northwest again, and there were words in his mouth, yes, Deng Shizai, when will there be news?

The reason why Huo Yi kept ordering the generals to fight with the Cao army was to alleviate the offensive of the Cao army's southward advance; second, it is delaying time and giving Deng Ai time to trek through mountains and rivers; Third, it is also fighting for an opportunity for the Jingzhou army.

And this opportunity for the Jingzhou army, it is necessary to see if God can give some strength, in early summer, the weather is stuffy and humid, according to Huo Yi, this is a sign before the heavy rainstorm, and the Jingzhou army is waiting for the rainstorm to come.

The sky gradually brightened, and on a cliff in the northwest of Jingshan, countless figures appeared here.

Deng Ai ordered the troops to throw the prepared ropes off the mountain wall, and then go down the mountain in groups, and go to the foot soldiers at the bottom of the mountain first, to occupy a favorable position on the spot, and to guard the surroundings with crossbow machines. The first to descend was a group of scouts.

It was Han Ping again, and a team of crossbowmen, Han Ping went down the mountain first, in order to organize the sergeants to guard the surroundings, and by the way, he commanded the scouts to go around to explore the enemy.

Deng Ai's men and horses were slowly coming down from the cliff rope ladder, the military horses were already halfway through, Deng Ai was still on top, but the deputy general on the side said: "General!" It's time for you to go, half of the men and horses have passed, and the rest of the horses will continue under the command of the last general! ”

Deng Ai nodded, and was about to go down, but he heard a rope "snap" breaking, and on the rope, a team of armor soldiers who were going down the mountain all fell.

The surrounding sergeants were shocked, and the deputy general was even more frightened, knowing that Deng Ai had just wanted to go down from that rope ladder. If you had taken a step earlier, you can imagine the consequences.

Deng Ai patted Nafu Ban's shoulder: "It's okay, aren't there other rope ladders?" ”

At this time, there were still two rope ladders left, and the deputy general did not dare to take the risk: "When these two teams of armor soldiers go down the mountain, we will put away the ropes first and see if there is any damage, just in case, general!" ”

Deng Ai would not joke with people's lives, nodded slowly, and after a while, the two rope ladders were collected up, but he faintly saw that there were more than a dozen places due to friction with the mountain stones, but they were very damaged, and they were unusable.

The lieutenant general looked at Deng Ai: "General, how is this good?" ”

Deng Ai frowned, and suddenly saw that many soldiers were still carrying the special bedding mats made by the Jingnan Army behind them, but they were thinking about it.

Standing on the edge of the cliff and looking down, it is estimated that the cliff is not too high, if it is rolled down the mountain wrapped in a mat, there should not be much danger, but if it is scattered by the mat on the way, then the result is self-evident.

Deng Ai ordered someone to bring pen and ink, wrote a letter by hand, and ordered a crossbowman to shoot the letter down the mountain. However, Han Ping at the bottom of the mountain was asked to organize the sergeants to spread a buffer place with bedding mats at the bottom of the mountain, which should be as thick as possible, and he also informed Han Ping of his plan, and after it was paved, he showed it with a sound of the hammer.
