Chapter 485: Heavy Mountain Fort

The fort is located between two mountains, and the only entrance is a reverse slope.

It was very difficult for the carriage to enter the customs.

On the slope, Caomengguo arranged a barrage to try to stop the attack speed of the Great Liang army.

Beacon fire and wolf smoke, three thick beams of smoke rose from the walls of Chongshan Fort, even Yakumo Zi, a traverser, knew what he was doing.

On the top of the hill one mile away from Chongshan Fort, all the senior leaders of the expedition army gathered here to discuss the future attack.

According to the news from the scouts, Chongshan Fort is the only way to enter the grassland, and there are only two options to avoid this level.

One is to climb the mountain, but the mountains around here are as steep as cliffs, and if you are not careful, you will fall under the cliff, and you will not even be able to catch your whole body.

The second is a detour, but the mountains and mountains stretch for hundreds of miles, and the long distance will be delayed for more than a month.

Directly attacking Chongshan Fort, the casualties cannot be estimated, because the entrance is simply too frightening.

Condescending, with a rain of arrows covering the sky, and no place to hide, Wang Du had already imagined in his mind the tragic scene of the mountain of corpses and the sea of corpses outside the gate.

"Marshal Wang, the last general thinks that it is completely possible to capture Chongshan Fort by shielding the soldiers from attacking the city with an iron shield," one of the lieutenants proposed.

"If the enemy uses rolling logs, the speed of the shield soldiers will be hindered by the terrain outside the pass," Wang Du retorted.

"This ............" Lieutenant imagined a scenario where the advantage of the slope would make the logs faster and more destructive.

The lieutenant sighed in annoyance and shut up.

"Generals, what else do you have to offer? Hurry up," Wang Du said.

Everyone looked at each other and lowered their heads, and they didn't come up with any ideas for the time being.

The terrain outside Chongshan Fort is too tricky, and the cavalry and shield soldiers are helpless.

There is no way but to pile up with the number of people.

"The external defense of Chongshan Fort is indeed very strong, but no matter how strong a warrior is, he will have weaknesses, and this Chongshan Fort is no exception, it can't be attacked from the outside, so from the inside" Wang Du explained with a serious face.

From within?

Several captains' eyes lit up instantly, and they hurriedly bowed their hands to Wang Du and said, "Marshal Wang, we are willing to sneak into Chongshan Fort."

Wang Du looked at them quietly.

"Infiltrate the heavy mountain fort, nine deaths, several generals are young, and the future is immeasurable, but you have to think clearly"

"Marshal Wang, we opened the heavy mountain fort for the Great Liang Dynasty, not to mention the great merit, even if we sacrifice us, we can enter the Yingling Pagoda and be worshiped by 10,000 people, I am not afraid."

There was a burst of applause, but it was not Wang Du.

Everyone followed the sound and looked down the mountain, and a woman in white and a young man walked up with a smile on their faces.

Everyone got up from the stone and fell to their knees.

"See the Queen's Mother"

Yakumo Zi raised his hand: "No courtesy"

"Xie Niangniang"

Everyone respected her, but only one person had a straight face.

"Niangniang, the enemy army already knows the news of the queen's presence in the army, please don't show up at will"

"Marshal Wang, even if they knew? I wish an assassin had come and kill me? Yakumo Zi smiled confidently, showing a haughty attitude.

Yesterday, the Assassins appeared, but this time their target was not a lieutenant-level general, but to assassinate a woman.

This woman is Yakumo Shi.

It's a pity that the assassin's strength is not good, and before he can get close to her, he is solved by Nameless.

"Niangniang, you can not think about yourself, but also think about us, Your Majesty, think about it, once something happens to you, Niangniang, we will not be able to get out of it" Wang Du frowned tightly and said coldly.

"Am I a dead man in your eyes?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, and they were out of breath in a depressed atmosphere.

Wang Du was stunned, and took the lead in half-kneeling on the ground, followed by the generals.

"Queen Mother, Wang and the generals have no such intentions"

"Never that ×N"

Originally, it was just a joke, but in their eyes it had an additional meaning.

Don't forget, there are rumors that the Queen Mother is already a dead person.

"Alright, get up, I didn't say I meant that," Yakumo said with a frown and raised his hand.

Wang Du and the generals breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, and stood up.

"Generals, you don't have to salute when you see me in the future, you are all the backbone of my beam, and this expedition still depends on you"

"Niangniang's words are serious, if it weren't for Niangniang blocking the assassin, I'm afraid we would have died in Huangquan a long time ago," a certain lieutenant said ashamedly.

"What General Yan said is reasonable, we have to rely on my mother to protect the safety of our people along the way."

The Assassins were ordinary soldiers, and they were lieutenants, and it was impossible to hide from them all the time.

Even though they had heightened their vigilance, they were still overwhelmed by the sudden attack.

"I'm also doing what I can, generals don't have to be polite" As soon as he finished speaking, Yakumo Purple suddenly remembered the purpose of this visit.

He continued, "By the way, I just heard you guys discussing how to infiltrate the Heavy Mountain Fort? ”

Wang Du nodded and looked at the few young generals who had bravely stood up before.

Yakumo Zi also looked at them, and said with a slight smile on his lips: "It's not the backbone of my beam, and my courage is commendable."

"Niang Niang Miao praised," several lieutenants said shyly.

"But Chongshan Fort is a dangerous place, you will definitely have no way back and forth, plus you don't know the situation inside, you can only be sent to death if you rush in."

"We are not afraid of death!!"

Yakumo stretched out her hand to stop them from talking.

The corners of his mouth curled slightly: "The four generals should take their own soldiers with peace of mind, and leave this kind of thing to the professionals."

"Professional?" Everyone was confused, only Wang Du was thinking about it.

Indeed, the Shadow Guards are all excellent in martial arts, and it is best to carry out infiltration missions.

But the Shadow Guard was sent by His Majesty to protect the Queen Mother, in case ............ Wait, isn't it her?

Wang Du seemed to remember something, and looked at Yakumo Purple with a smile like a flower in surprise.

As soon as he stepped forward with a gloomy face, he asked, "Niangniang, do you want to sneak into Chongshan Fort too?" ”

"Of course, my martial arts, Marshal Wang, you have been taught"

"Niangniang, this Wang absolutely disagrees"

"Uh............" she froze.

"Niangniang, please think twice" Wang Du half-knelt on the ground again, looking like he wouldn't get up if you didn't agree.

"Mother, please think again"

Wang Du is now their head, and everything must be followed.

"Wang Du, what are you doing?" Yakumo Zi stared at him with a cold face.

"Wang just wants Niangniang to take back her life and let the Shadow Guard sneak into Chongshan Castle" He didn't dare to say the sentence that his entire family's life was in your hands.

Zhao Xingyu had already told him to keep it secret before.

Yakumo Zi frowned and glanced at Wang Du and sighed lightly.

"Marshal Wang, I know that you are thinking about my safety, but my martial arts, others don't know, you should know"
