Near the top of the mountain, there is an extremely narrow stone road, with a thick stone wall on one side and a pit more than ten meters deep on the other side.

This narrow stone road leads directly to the top of the mountain, only half in the center, with a small checkpoint, and a spacious stone cave next to it, which is stationed more than 20 Bozhou County defenders, and two people are guarded at the edge of the checkpoint, alternating in turn.

Although everyone felt that it was impossible for the people of the imperial court to pass through here, but carefully sail the ship for ten thousand years, the Ye family still arranged manpower here to make a foolproof plan.

These dozens of defenders even felt that it was difficult for two horses to move side by side on this narrow road, even if the army of the imperial court wanted to pass through here, the tens of thousands of people, one by one, would go forward, but they would have to walk for a few months, and it was very hidden here, and in the past, they passed through Ligu Pass, and no one could climb up the steep mountain range to pass from here.

It was late at night, the wind was bitter, and most of the soldiers had fallen asleep, except for the two soldiers who were still guarding the cave, still enduring the cold wind outside the cave.

In the twilight, listening to the snoring sound coming from the stone cave, the two soldiers were also sleepy, curled up on the edge of the stone cave, leaning against the stone wall, half asleep.

It was impossible for this group of defenders to imagine that a ghostly group of sick people was approaching them, and that death was approaching them step by step.

"Whew!"

A feathered arrow burst through the air and struck mercilessly at the throat of a soldier who had no time to snort and die with his head tilted.

But this sudden arrow alarmed another soldier, and he hurriedly got up, only to feel unbelievable, and before he could come back to his senses, he poked his head out in confusion, and he saw another feather arrow coming at him, and then he felt a pain in his throat, and the feather arrow was actually inserted into his throat, silently, like a sudden deadly arrow from hell, and he did not even see the appearance of the enemy, and fell to the ground.

Zhu Xiaoyan put down the longbow in his hand, pulled out the dagger, waved his hand, and took the lead in rushing towards the level, with more than a dozen knights behind him carrying swords, and Yuguan followed behind.

Crossing the wooden fence level, more than a dozen people were like ghosts in the night, burrowing into the stone cave.

Han Mo stuck to the stone wall, and soon heard a scream from inside, which was the terrible howl of the defenders in their sleep.

Disaster struck from the sky, and none of them could have imagined that the life-killing Yama would come suddenly without warning.

In this kind of battle, naturally there is no moral problem, if I don't kill you, you will kill me, so Zhu Xiaoyan and the others will never give them a chance, even if the defenders are really unprepared or even asleep, their blades still mercilessly cut into the throats of the defenders.

Under Zhu Xiaoyan's training, the wind rider was already well-trained, chopping melons and vegetables, but in a moment, there was no sound in the stone cave, and a bloodied wind rider came out of the stone cave and shouted to Han Mo and the others who were waiting at the stone wall: "Fifth young master, it's all solved." ”

Han Mo nodded slightly, looked back at the dragon-like cavalry, and said in a low voice: "You guys are waiting here now, and when you hear the order, move forward." "I stepped forward and turned over the level, but before I walked into the stone cave, I smelled the rich ** smell wafting from it.

He was about to enter the cave, and a figure came in front of him, and there were burning torches in the stone cave, and by the light of the fire, Han Mo immediately saw that this person was not wearing the leather armor of the wind rider, but the armor of the enemy, and his heart sank.

The enemy is not dead, then ......!

He reacted quickly, and was about to make a move, so he heard Zhu Xiaoyan's voice say: "Fifth Young Master, it's me!" ”

Sure enough, this warrior wearing enemy armor was Zhu Xiaoyan.

"Why are you dressed like this?" Han Mo was a little strange, but he reacted instantly, and said with a smile: "Xiao Zhu, you are really a veteran." ”

Zhu Xiaoyan said: "Let's go deep behind enemy lines and put on their clothes, which will play a certain role in confusing using." It's a pity that there are only about 20 sets of enemy clothes here, and it seems that we have crossed the Ligu Mountains to the territory of Bozhou County, and we have the opportunity to get more armor. ”

In the stone cave, a dry wind rider had already changed into the enemy's armor according to Zhu Xiaoyan's instructions.

"Those who have changed their clothes and armor will go ahead." Zhu Xiaoyan instructed his subordinates: "There is a flag of theirs there, take it away, go to the Pingchuan area, and raise their flag!" ”

The cavalry had destroyed the wooden fence and opened the way, still led by a few civilians who knew the terrain in front, and the wind cavalry led the horses, one by one, on the steep and rugged mountain road.

……

……

The dawn appeared between heaven and earth, and at the head of Ligu Pass, Ye Wuya, who was the main general guarding the pass, was looking at the dense family army of Ligu River from afar, and he also saw that the two armies of the Xiao family and the Han family were waving banners, and they were closest to Ligu Pass.

The majestic Ligu Pass is like a moat erected in front of the Shijia army, which is a pressure for the Shijia army, but it is the source of self-confidence for the defenders.

The walls of the pass are full of crossbows, the stones and rolling logs are also ready, and there are many defenders in the pass.

The Ye family is fully prepared, although the momentum of the family army is very strong, and the strength is far more than that of the Ye family army, but with the moat-like Ligu Pass, Ye Tianya is very confident.

Ye Tianya's side was also full of generals, and Ye Geng was also dressed in military uniform, following Ye Tianya's side.

"Second uncle, it seems that they are preparing to attack." Ye Geng said disdainfully: "I don't know how many steps they can rush to this side?" If you rush halfway and then go back like a wild dog, it won't be interesting. ”

Ye Tianya smiled faintly and said: "I'm very strange, looking at their military formation, it seems that it is the Xiao family and the Han family who are in the lead. I thought it was Simon's family who was the first to come up and look for death. ”

A subordinate general next to him nodded and said, "What the general said is true." The Xiao family is powerful and powerful, and the last general did not expect that they would take the initiative to take on the responsibility of the vanguard. ”

"It doesn't matter who they are pioneers, they are all here to die." Ye Geng said disdainfully.

Ye Tianya frowned slightly.

He suddenly felt a little strange, after all, in his opinion, even if it wasn't the Ximen family's army that rushed up first, the Xiao family would never be the first. As a pioneer, to put it bluntly, it is to kill people and lose their own strength, when did the Xiao family become so generous and righteous that they actually stepped forward?

Of course, he didn't know that this was the "offensive signing" method proposed by Han Mo, which made the stalemate within the family army suddenly reach a certain unity.

But his brow quickly relaxed.

Because he doesn't care who leads the way.

With a strong barrier, sufficient preparation, and the right time and place, he will not be afraid of the family army.

And he knew very well in his heart that as long as he repelled a few attacks by the family army and the family army was frustrated, then the temporarily suppressed contradictions would explode more violently.

Ye Geng said very clearly: "As long as they withstand a few attacks from them, their morale will be exhausted, and at that time, they will have to fight in their nests without us fighting." ”

"Dog eats dog!" A subordinate general laughed and said: "That wild dog of the Xiao family, if it loses its troops, it will definitely vent its anger on other families, and at that time, we may be able to see a good show." ”

Another subordinate general said proudly: "As long as there is chaos within them, my Ye family's army will come out, like a tiger descending from the mountain, and will be able to beat that rabble to the point of losing their armor." ”

Ye Geng also waved his fist excitedly: "When the time comes, defeat the family army, wave the army to take Yanjing City, kick Cao Ding off the dragon seat, and the big thing will be done!" ”

It seemed to be infected by Ye Geng's words, and the faces of the people were excited.

They understand that once the great cause is accomplished, these people can be regarded as the founding of the country, and then glory and wealth will roll in.

Ye Wuya was silent, he knew that the situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly, and nothing could be concluded until the real victory was achieved.

"Is there any news from the Elbe?" Ye Wuya asked.

Ye Geng immediately said: "Fan Huhe's three dogs eat dogs, it is said that the internal chaos is a mess, and the military formation is still in a mess. Now the two armies are deadlocked on both sides of the Elbe! ”

A smile appeared on the corner of Ye Wuya's mouth and said, "It's the same as expected." As long as the Wu family is on the top for ten days and half a month, I am afraid that the war here will be over. When the time comes, once this side wins, the Elbe will be self-defeating. ”

Everyone burst into laughter, very proud.

……

At noon, the siege weapons transferred from Yanjing finally arrived at the Shijia military camp.

Catapults are the main siege weapon.

These catapults also look very simple and not advanced, but there is no doubt that they are definitely powerful when used to attack the passes.

In addition to this, there are two extremely strange weapons, which are also indispensable weapons in siege warfare.

The same is called a building car, also called a nest car.

This is a kind of siege lookout vehicle, the car is expected to be upstaired, like a bird's nest, is to erect two long pillars on an eight-wheeled vehicle, there is a board house in the middle of the two pillars, can be lifted, there are holes in the house, from the orifice, you can observe the situation of the enemy army in the city, so you can judge the strength of the enemy's defense force in the city, and then get information, then you can focus on attacking the enemy's weak defense area according to the strength of the opponent's defense, through the flag.

The other, called the Spray, is an extremely sturdy siege vehicle, which can cover the siege soldiers when digging tunnels in the city walls, avoiding the enemy's arrows, stones, arson, and wooden rings.

The spray can accommodate more than ten people, and under its cover, soldiers can carry out their operations relatively safely.

Of course, there is also the Tiger Head Hammer, which is an absolute weapon used to strike the city gates.

These siege weapons were quickly transferred to the vanguard troops, that is, the barracks of the Ye and Han families, and when they saw the siege weapons arrived, the soldiers who were originally facing the majestic Ligu Pass were quite troubled, and their mood was suddenly greatly excited.

At dusk, the family army was ready for battle, and the content of the instructions of the generals of the two armies was almost the same: "At any cost, attack the city with all your strength and take Ligu Pass!" ”

The big war is just around the corner!
