Chapter 77: Capture Hengshan
"Haha, this idea of Brother Chonglou is good." Li Bad stroked his palms and laughed, "That's right, since we can't attack it, let's burn them out with a fire, although those flowers and trees on the mountain are their cover, but they are also the fuse for their destruction." ”
Speaking of this, Li Bad paused for a moment, the irritable mood in his heart was gradually dissipating, and his eyes flashed with brilliance and said, "Pass my order, the archers will all change to rockets, and the catapult will also hang the stones thrown out and set them on fire, and put them on the Hengshan Mountain, as many as you want."
Wind kills, thunder kills ambushes under the mountain, if the Yellow Turban thief escapes from the mountain, he doesn't have to wait for my order to kill him directly, remember, don't let anyone go! ”
"Yes!"
On Hengshan, Zhang Baiqi, the pioneer officer of the Yellow Turban, was patrolling with more than a dozen personal soldiers, and more than 100,000 people were distributed in all corners of Hengshan under his arrangement.
Zhang Baiqi walked to a high slope, looked down the mountain, and found that the foot of the mountain was covered with the corpses of red-clothed soldiers, and he couldn't help but show a cruel expression on his face and said, "This Suzaku army can't help fighting, what's the use of having more people?" In the end, it's not the souls of our Yellow Turban Heavenly Army, what regular army, it's all bullshit in front of us! ”
"Yes, yes, in front of the tiger's might, the Suzaku army is a plate of scattered sand, and the lord is mighty! Adults are domineering! Zhang Baiqi's pro-soldiers patted the horse's ass.
"Okay, okay, don't slap me here, you go and inform He Yi and He Man, and let the two of them come to my big tent to discuss matters."
"Yes!"
In the next few hours, Seven Kills launched several more attacks, but they didn't have the brave momentum just now, and most of them rushed back halfway, which made some Yellow Turban soldiers feel that Seven Kills was "cowardly".
As time passed, night gradually fell, and under the cover of night, all the catapults, light and heavy crossbows, and archers in the Seven Killing Army were gathered together and stood by.
Not far from them, Li Gang and the Seven Killing Legion Leaders were standing on a high platform and watching.
At night, some places on the mountain were exposed, and I don't know if the Yellow Turban Army on the mountain is really stupid or pretending to be stupid.
The Yellow Turban Army is afraid that the Seven Kills will not know where their location is, so they must raise a torch to signal the Seven Kills Army.
Since everyone is so hospitable, Li Bad is not polite to them, and directly orders to go down, all catapults, light and heavy machine crossbows will conduct the first round of shooting, and focus on "taking care" of the places illuminated by torches.
The archers are under the cover of the ground kill, and after the first round of volleys, they will kill the Hengshan, the range of the archers is not as good as the machine crossbow, they can only set fire at the foot of the mountain, so they need the cover of the ground killing army.
Li Bad looked down at the time, no more, no less, exactly twelve o'clock, and then looked back at several legion commanders and said, "Brother, it's time, act!" ”
"Catapult ready, put!"
"Light machine crossbow ready, put!"
"Heavy machine crossbow ready, put!"
After one order after another, countless boulders and crossbow arrows with flames shot out from the Seven Killing Battalion, forming a rain of fire in the sky, and many of the Yellow Turban Army soldiers stationed in Hengshan inexplicably felt an alternative beauty after seeing it.
A handful of Yellow Turban commanders reacted and shouted hoarsely, "Wake up, the enemy is attacking!" ”
"Boom Boom"
The rain of fire fell from the sky, and the crossbow arrows more than one person long easily penetrated the two Yellow Turban soldiers, and smashed the Hengshan out of one deep pit after another with the huge boulders of the waves.
Many of the Yellow Turban soldiers who were resting lost their lives inexplicably, and the seven killings were also ruthless this time, a wave of fire rain just passed, and the second wave of fire rain followed, not giving the Yellow Turban Army any respite at all, and many Yellow Turban soldiers died in this fire feast.
Zhang Baiqi, who was having a meeting with his subordinates, was also attracted by the noise outside, and hurriedly went out to inquire, but when he walked out of the big tent, he was stunned.
Fire, fire, everywhere is fire, the entire barracks, no, the whole Hengshan is surrounded by fire, the speed of fire spreads very fast in the dry season of winter, Zhang Baiqi feels that he can no longer control the situation.
Just when a pot of porridge was made on the mountain, the shouts of killing under the mountain sounded one after another, under the cover of the wind killing army, 100,000 archers successfully arrived at the foot of Hengshan, 100,000 sharp arrows shot out instantly, and the lighting effect of 100,000 rockets was enough to illuminate the entire Hengshan.
The wind borrowed the fire, the fire borrowed the wind, and a fire burned Hengshan clean, and the 150,000 Yellow Turban troops on the mountain were also burned to only more than 90,000 people.
In fact, less than 10,000 soldiers were burned to death in the Yellow Turban Army, the most important thing was that the panic caused by the fire led to a mutiny in the Yellow Turban Army, under the leadership of several low-level generals of the Yellow Turban Army, some soldiers who were unwilling to hide in the mountains and be burned alive decided to seize control of Zhang Baicai's army by force, and then went down the mountain to surrender to the Seven Killing Army.
But they were few and weak, and after a night of fierce fighting, they were exterminated by Zhang Baiqi and others, and several low-level generals led by Zhang Baiqi were beheaded and sacrificed to the flag.
The Seven Killing Army was not idle, and as soon as he learned that the Yellow Turban Army had civil strife, Li Bad changed the battle plan, changing the original ambush to encirclement and annihilation, with the wind killing in front and the thunder killing in the back, and the 500,000 Seven Killing Army slaughtered Hengshan mightily.
The Yellow Turban Army, which had been fighting fiercely all night, was unable to resist, so they could only fight and retreat all the way to the top of the mountain, and their number was reduced from more than 90,000 to less than 30,000.
Zhang Bai's two fierce generals, He Yi He Man, were also killed by Wang Bodang, a general under Huaichun, and the current Yellow Turban Army has basically been forced to a dead end by seven killings, and there is nowhere to escape.
Li Bad didn't bother to summon and surrender, and an order was issued, all of them were annihilated, and no one was left.
At this point, the battle of Hengshan finally came to an end, with seven killings winning a complete victory, and all 150,000 Yellow Turban guards were annihilated.
Seven Kills also became the first player alliance to capture the Nine Mountains and Eighteen Caves, and many players borrowed from the Seven Kills method of attacking the mountain, and the Nine Mountains and Eighteen Caves were on fire for a while, and the smoke lingered over the mountain for a long time.
Zhang Mancheng was frightened by a fire from Suzaku, and withdrew from the mountain with the remaining 300,000 soldiers and horses, and withdrew to Chongzuo Pass, the second line of defense of the Yellow Turban Army.
The Suzaku Army was in hot pursuit, and Yuan Yang ordered the general Yuan Tai to lead 700,000 regular troops to Chongzuo Pass, Tianyi Pavilion, Seven Killing Hall and other five major militia organizations to surround Chongzuo Pass in three ways.
All in all, Chongzuo Pass must be firmly locked, and not a single fly can be put in, the 300,000 Yellow Turban Army that escaped in the Nine Mountains and Eighteen Caves is now in Chongzuo Pass, and Yuan Yang was a little embarrassed to let go of 300,000, so this time no matter what, he was sure of the Yellow Turban Army in Chongzuo Pass.
