In the Magpie Valley Road, the cliff plank road.

In the battle of Liang Shu, there were heavy casualties, blood and qi rose, and the whole land was gray.

Huan Zilu stood at the entrance of the plank road, looking at the remnants of the Liang army who came back one after another on the cliff plank road, and there was an unsolvable sorrow in his eyebrows.

"Hasn't General Rong Chan come back yet?"

On that day, Xiliang Iron Cavalry attacked the camp, and Huan Biao sent Rong Can to lead 6,000 heavy armor to resist. They went to the front camp and the rear was already in chaos, and under the attack of the two sides, Rong Can led the troops to retreat, and there was still no news at this time.

"General, at this moment, the Shu army occupies half of the Quegu Road and guards all the key passes. General Rong Can just wants to come back, but I'm afraid there is no way. ”

The deputy general beside Huan Zilu said.

In the Battle of Sanshiyuan, and the subsequent siege battle, a large number of Liang soldiers and horses were lost.

A small number of them have returned to the Liang army camp through Quegu Road. And most of them were either captured by the Shu army or became wandering bandits.

According to the statistics of the Liang army, including those who were captured and those who fled, the number of these Liang troops was 30,000 or 40,000.

The cliff is cloudy, and the plank road is dangerous. There was a long way ahead, and Huan Zilu sighed.

"There are many passes in Yizhou, if General Rong Can wants to gather the crowd and return, I'm afraid it will be difficult to break a way out!"

Huan Zilu knew Rong Can's situation at this time, to the south was Baocheng Pass, to the west was Luoying Mountain, and to the north was Quegu Road. No matter which way he goes, Rong Can with thousands of men and horses is full of difficulties.

"General Rongcan's matter is still secondary, general, the lord has not woken up yet, do we really want to fight the Shu army again?"

Huan Zilu shook his head with a look of regret.

"I'm afraid it's going to be hard to fight again. Yang Xian had already personally rushed to this Quegu Road, and the Shu army was guarding all the dangers. Our army's strong attack was just like the situation faced by General Huan Biao that day. Unless human lives are forcibly filled, this road will not be opened at all. But with the current state of our army, we can't afford it at all, I hope the lord won't be carried away by hatred! ”

At this moment, Huan Wu had not yet woken up, and the Liang army on the front line had already attacked the Shu army for two days in accordance with Huan Wu's order before he fell into a coma.

At the beginning, the Shu army was still facing it head-on. At the back, the Shu army took the initiative to retreat, giving up half of the Quegu Road to guard the key passes, and it was already difficult for the Liang army to attack again.

Huan Zilu was worried, and a fast horse drove behind him. The person who came was familiar to Huan Zilu, and he was also his disciple Huan Zishan.

After Huan Zishan and Zhang Rui retreated from Yuting, they took their soldiers and horses to move closer to Haojing and stationed on the border of Yongzhou to defend against the Liangzhou army.

"Is the lord awake?"

Watching Huan Zishan's figure slowly approach, Huan Zilu's heart felt a sense of joy.

Huan Zishan's face was very bad, it seemed that he was in a hurry for days, his face was a little thin, and his little man was a little sluggish.

"I woke up half a day ago."

"What do you mean? Do you want to continue the attack on the Shu army, or let us retreat? ”

Huan Zishan looked around, approached Huan Zilu's ear and said something, but saw Huan Zilu's eyebrows furrowed, which seemed a little incredible.

"Does the lord really want to do this?"

"The stakes are high, and that's why I'm here in person. Don't leak the news, in case the Shu army is in trouble, hurry up and prepare! ”

"I see!"

Huan Zilu glanced at the cliff plank road in front of him and took a deep breath of the cool air in the mountain. Obviously, it was summer at the moment, but Huan Zilu felt the breath of autumn.

Maybe an era is really coming to an end!

Huan Zilu sighed sadly in his heart and turned away.

"Boss, why hasn't the Liang army come to attack our camp these days?"

The bonfire was lit, wafting with the smell of ash smoke and meat.

Niu Er glanced at the outer layer of roe meat on the grill, which was already a little burnt, and cut it with a knife. The meat was not yet fully cooked, but the saliva of the soldiers was about to flow.

The roe deer had been hunted from the woodland during their patrol this morning, and had just had a meal.

"The prime minister ordered us to withdraw from the army and guard the pass. Liang Jun is not stupid, how can he attack? ”

is a centurion, and he can also see the situation of the two armies of Liang and Shu at this moment. Liang Jun is now riding a tiger. In the battle of Shu, the Liang army suffered heavy losses, and the sons of Liang even died in this war, so they retired and lost face.

But if they continue to attack, not to mention that Quegu Road has been reoccupied by the Shu army, how many soldiers and horses will they lose when they attack strongly? Can the current Liang army withstand this kind of attrition?

"Boss, what do you think that's that?"

With a shout, Niu Er turned his head and saw a black smoke burning in the north, which had the potential to rush into the sky.

"That's the direction of the cliff plank road, what is Liang Jun going to do?"

All the Shu soldiers stood up, ignoring the half-baked roe deer, and rushed out of the camp.

Niu Er and his soldiers were the closest and the first to arrive.

"What the ......"

Niu Er burst into a foul mouth, but saw that on the cliff plank road in front of him, the flames were raging. The heat wave was churning, the fire was scorching, and the beams and pillars supporting the plank road had been burned down, and it was difficult for them to get close, let alone fight the fire.

A few miles away, Liang Jun could still be vaguely seen. They had just finished pouring the canister with the fire oil in their hands, and then they ran backwards like crazy.

The fire spread quickly, and it only took a while, and it was miles long, and it was completely lost in the sea of fire.

A large number of Shu troops arrived, and everyone was stunned when they saw this scene, and they didn't know what to do?

This cliff plank road is the most important section of the Quegu Road, which is hundreds of miles long. When this road was first built, I don't know how many people died.

But now, right in front of him, Liang Jun completely burned down this plank road.

What does this mean?

Behind him was a large number of surging figures, and the soldiers beside Niu Er pulled his sleeves and asked a little stunned: "Boss, what does Liang Jun mean by this?" ”

The plank road was destroyed, the Liang army was not allowed to enter, and the Shu army was not allowed to get out. In the future, if the Shu army wants to enter the Central Plains, there are only two ways, either to enter Nanyang through Yongshui, or to pass through the rice warehouse for hundreds of miles.

And either way is not easy to walk.

Chu Hou Cai Tong has coveted Nanyang for a long time, and if the Shu army wants to enter Nanyang, there is a danger of being attacked by the enemy. If a partial army is able to fight together, it will undoubtedly be difficult for the army to take this path.

The rice cang road is hundreds of miles away, there is no support point in the middle, and it is necessary to face the scattered water pass, one of the male passes in the world. It is to capture the Sanshui Pass, which is only the first step into the pass, and then there are countless large and small city passes. If the Shu army takes this road, then it will encounter the difficulties encountered by the Liang army today.

Grain and grass are transported for thousands of miles, and it costs a lot of money. Attacking cities and plundering land, all they pass is a bloody road.

is a pawn in the Shu army at this moment, and he can also feel Huan Wu's determination and decisiveness. Niu Er's face was red from the flames, and he clenched his hands.

"The thief is really ruthless!"
