Chapter 753: The Night of the Bright Moon

Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

The sky looked like it had been cleaned, black and blue.

A bright moon rises in the light cloud-shrouded night sky, round and crystal like a huge night pearl surrounded by clouds, like a gorgeous silver glow to the surrounding clouds inlaid with a magnificent halo. As the clouds move away, the surrounding halo also changes with the different clouds, and the wonderful colors are like a dream.

A few silver stars dotted around, and the bright moonlight sprinkled on the water, the moonlight was like water, and the shadow sank into the wall.

Zhu Biao stood at the water's edge, looking up at the night sky, looking at the bright moon, but there was no elegance in his heart.

――At dozens of junctures on the Great Wall of Zhao, where will Uwei come from?

Since he left Yanxi, he has been unable to contact the Northern Han Dynasty, and at the same time, the news channel with Zhao Jun has not been established, which is completely smeared with the current domestic situation in Zhao State. It's easier said than done!

There are three roads in the east and west, each of which is possible, and each of them also has a reason for saying the past.

Although the strength of Zhao was very strong, there were no less than 500,000 troops, and more than 100,000 cavalry. However, these troops were to be guarded along the 2,000-mile frontier, and they were to be stationed in more than 200 counties and counties across the country.

After Uwei Tuo broke through this encirclement, the infantry army could not catch up with the cavalry, and the flat land of Zhao State was the fertile field where U Wei Tuo galloped. Zhao Guo encountered the same problem as the Northern Han Dynasty, but his luck was not as good as that of the Northern Han Dynasty. Because there are many mountains and rivers in the Northern Han Dynasty, but the Zhao Kingdom is an endless wilderness!

The dangers of mountains and rivers have never been able to catch up with Zhao Guo, otherwise Zhao Guo would not have repaired the long dragon that stretched for two thousand miles in the north for thousands of years.

……

……

Mid-May. A cavalry of 25,600 men drove to the Feixian Pass.

Uvida's eyes were blazing as they stared at the pass not far away, it was the last hurdle for them to break out of their cage. As long as you can break out of the Feixian Pass, there is the world of the Hu people outside!

For this reason, he spent more than a month tossing in the north and south of Zhao State. Taking advantage of the swiftness of the cavalry, the assault assault assault kept on assault, committing a monstrous blood debt, leaving behind ruins all over the ground!

Galloping for hundreds of miles at night, the starry night rushed, the 100,000 war horses when entering the Zhao Kingdom were broken more than seventy percent, and the three horses were reduced to the current people with two horses, so that a large part of them was taken from the hands of the Zhao people. A march of 300 miles a day has become commonplace!

Everybody got a lot thinner. Even Uweida's own plump cheeks were thinned, but in exchange for this, the cavalry of the Zhao army was destroyed by him one by one, and the infantry of the Zhao army was defeated by him one by one during the march, and even eaten. Compared with the pressure given by Zhu Biao in the Northern Han Dynasty. Uweituo, who had hardly fought with Zhao Jun, said that it was easy to beat Zhao Jun.

Now, more than 100,000 or 200,000 Zhao troops were thrown behind him for three or four hundred miles, and his whole army was killed under the Feixian Pass.

"King, if you want to take Feixian Pass, you must first take Hutouling. But if Zhao Jun is on the mountain, he can't defend it. With the tired body of our army, what should we do? Hu Jieqi's face was gray, like a car wagon that had not been washed for several months, covered with a layer of dirt.

Hutou Ridge is four miles behind the right of Feixian Pass. It's not more than a hundred feet tall. But this is the key point that Hu Qi must take before attacking Feixian Pass. Otherwise, the Hu cavalry under the city of Feixian Pass must always be vigilant against a knife inserted from Hutou Ridge.

"Don't come down? Burning the mountain is! Uwei had a sneer on his face. Since he chose to kill from Feixian Pass, how could he not know about Hutouling? The psychological side has already made up a plan.

"Burning the mountain?" The generals were stunned when they heard this.

Uweida's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked ahead proudly. "Although it is no longer the time for summer and autumn to be dry, Hutouling is a place where the forest is lush. You only need to light a fire, and there is an east wind to send you off, are you afraid that this mountain will not burn? Besides, even if it can't be burned, this king can pour oil on it! ”

Hu Jieqi, Hu Lu Luomen and other generals suddenly realized, it turned out to be waiting here, no wonder the king asked the sergeants to pay attention to the oil three days ago, it was really a rainy day!

"That's a good idea. Only...... I'm afraid that Zhao Jun has already been released! ”

Uwei is not completely sure in his heart, and he is also worried about this: "You will know if you succeed or not." Moreover, Hutouling is not a permanent place for the soldiers and horses of the Zhao army, and there are only 100 people on the mountain on weekdays. Now that the Zhao army is stationed, it is enough trouble to build barracks, where is there time to cut down trees? ”

"Even if the fire doesn't burn, the smoke is okay!"

Uwei Dao glanced in the direction of Hutouling a few more times, then retracted his gaze and continued to look at the Feixian Pass in front of him.

It won't be long before this hill will become a huge mountain of flames, but I don't know how many more people will be burned to death. But as long as it's not a Hu person! After more than ten years of battlefield fighting, what bloody things have Uwei Tuo never seen or done?

Not to mention anything else, as soon as he was killed from the Northern Han Dynasty, he already had millions of living beings under his command. is ruthless, and he is talking about people like him.

The Central Plains human race has a saying, water and fire are ruthless! Killing too many people is against the peace of heaven and will cost life, and Uwei doesn't care at all.

It was night, and the moon was hanging high in the sky.

Che Ganqian hurriedly ran over and said to Uwei: "King, all preparations have been made under the Tiger Head Ridge, do you want to attack immediately?"

Hearing this, Uwei Dao looked up at the sky, the moonlight was clear, stretched out his hand to feel the east wind still blowing, and said to the car: "The hour is almost over, tell them to do it!"

At this time, it was the middle of the night, and Hu Qi, a subordinate of Uwei Tuo, spent an afternoon making preparations, and now they are ready!

"Target, halfway up the mountain, stone thrower ready!" A silver-ringed general glanced at Hutouling in the dark night, and behind him there were thirteen extremely simple stone throwing machines, and ordered left and right, "Release!"

At this order, the sound of the projection of the catapult continued to sound left and right, and one by one the oil canisters flew towards the Hutou Ridge in the dark.

Although these treults are a full era behind the thunderbolts, even the throwing is manually pulled, rather than the counterweight box of the thunderbolt. The firing range is short, the power is small, the precision accuracy is low, and the staffing is large. It can be said that it is useless. But, it's simple, isn't it? Moreover, no matter how bad the stone thrower is, it can shoot farther than an ordinary bow and crossbow, and the power of shooting out is greater.

In the darkness, Uwei couldn't see where the oil cans had fallen. However, as long as it falls on Hutou Ridge, that is.

The Yinhuan Hu general couldn't manage it so much, and after ten rounds of projection, a simple stone thrower was already damaged. So he continued to order: "Light the fire pot and keep throwing!"

The sound fell, and it was dark before, and the stone thrower position, which was lit only by moonlight, lit up with a fire. There are torches, there are bonfires!

The sound of orders on the left and right is even more resounding. A flurry of orders was conveyed. Some of the sealed oil canisters that had been installed on the net pockets were replaced with coarse cloth seals, and the fire cans were lit with strips of cloth.

Ten rounds of projection, more than a hundred oil tanks have been thrown on Hutou Ridge. Although the accuracy of the trebuchet is not trusted, no matter how big the error is, it will always be unable to surpass the mountain forest faced by the trebuchet, right? Now with a fire cup, you can always 'blind cat bump into a dead mouse'.

Then a fire will burn!

Uwei watched more than a dozen firing canisters rise into the air. I knew in my heart that my calculations were exposed. Next, it's up to the Immortal Heaven to bless you......

He put his hands on his forehead and prayed earnestly to the gods he believed in!

At this moment, General Yinhuan only felt that these fire pots were flying too slowly, and he really wished that these fire pots could fall immediately. Hutouling Mountain can immediately burn. However, no matter how slow the fire pot flies, there is a time when it flies.

I saw more than a dozen fire pots fall into the middle of the mountainside, and at first there was no trace, but in an instant, the faint fire light lit up from the mountainside.

Hutouling is full of mountains and forests. The fire pot must have landed under the canopy first. This situation is normal, anyway. The silver ring general looked at it, and none of the first round of fire pots happened to hit the trunk of the tree.

A spark can start a prairie fire! Moreover, there were people pouring oil on this fire, and soon the sky-high fire illuminated the dark night sky, and the entire mountainside of Hutouling became a sea of fire.

Seeing this, Uwei was overjoyed, and his prayers to the immortal gods became even more devout.

Hu Qi under Hutou Ridge could already hear the shouts of the Zhao army on the mountain. I think they've already reacted. General Yinhuan Hu was afraid that he would be delayed for a while, so he asked Zhao Bing to extinguish the fire, and then urged the stone thrower to shoot faster. Countless oil canisters rose from the bottom of the mountain, looking at the mountainside and flying in the sea of fire.

The east wind was blowing, and the fire was blown by the wind, and in less than a quarter of an hour it became uncontrollable.

After a while, the fire on Hutou Ridge was soaring, and the fire had burned from the mountainside to the top of the mountain, and the fire was twice as big as before.

At this time, there were already Zhao soldiers rushing down from the mountain. Uwei looked from afar, saw the current general, and led thousands of remnants of soldiers down the mountain, trying to escape from the fire. At this time, the fire reflected the surroundings as if it were day, and it could be seen clearly from a distance on the side of Hu Qi. Without Uwei's command, a bearded horse rushed forward and bent its bow to wait!

This Tiger Head Ridge was no longer a problem, and Uwei Tuo's attention turned to Feixian Pass. I don't know if Zhao Jun of Feixian Pass, after seeing the change in Hutouling, will he come out of the pass to respond?

But it was said that this Feixian Pass.

The surname of the town guard general is Zhao, the surname of the country, and the double name Dezhao. But Zhao Dezhao is not a child of the royal clan like Zhao Lian, and he does not have hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses like Zhao Lian. The total strength of his Feixian Pass was only more than 12,000.

Relying on the hardships of Feixian Pass, 12,000 troops can support 100,000 Hu cavalry for a few days, which is enough for Zhao to send troops and reinforcements.

But this time Hu rode too fast, and it came from behind.

To be clear, the enemy of Feixian Pass is Hu Qi, and it is Hu Qi outside the Saiwai. The main defensive measures of the city are aimed at the outside of the fortress, and although there are the same high wall battlements on the inside, there are few decent horse faces and disc towers.

And when Zhao Dezhao received Hu Qichong's own killing, it was too late to ask for troops. I had to order the adjutant general to lead 3,000 troops into Hutouling. He thought very clearly, he didn't need to defeat Hu Qi, as long as he kept the Feixian Pass from losing, in less than three days, the army would surround and kill Hu Qi from behind.

However, a fire, a sudden fire on Hutou Ridge, made Zhao Dezhao lose his beloved general, and at the same time, the three thousand elite soldiers were also destroyed.

Fragrant, really fragrant.

The food treatment of the Rong army at the border pass is good, and there is often meat to eat. But it is the New Year's festival when the imperial court treats the army, and the aroma of cooking meat and barbecue in the whole city is far less than at this moment.

The mouth-watering aroma that usually fills the sky over the entire Feixian Pass.

However, the defenders on the Feixian Pass and the soldiers and civilians all over the city. But no one showed a hint of salivation at this time. There is just endless vomiting and disgust, as well as anger and fear!

The fire was extinguished on the southern wall......

"Take down all the rolling logs and boiling oil from the city walls, and prepare more shields, high turrets, and sand." Zhao Dezhao was ten years old, and Hu Gou's blow made him lose another four hundred people.

"You hurry back to the east gate to guard, you are going to ...... Be still. Zhao Dezhao was upset, and remorse and hatred were intertwined. Now he knew how Hutou Ridge could suddenly catch fire, Hu Gou, Hu Gou-

What a ruthless heart!

The lieutenant lowered his head and retreated. "No. The last general commanded. ”

When the captain hurried all the way to the southern city, he smelled the aroma of oil before he stepped on the city wall, and when he arrived at the city, he saw that seventeen stone throwers were lined up in order, and they were one hundred and fifty steps away from the city gate. "Rolling wood, boiling oil, these are all removed. Go and prepare the sand, and the shield-bearer will hurry into position...... High oar, high oar, high ......"

There are also a few pots of boiling oil and ten bed crossbows in the head of Nancheng. However, among the Hu people, there were supreme masters, and when it was not dawn, he went to the city alone and destroyed ten bed crossbows one by one.

It was precisely because there was no bed crossbow that Zhao Jun at the head of the city had to watch the rough and ugly stone thrower of the Hu people 'show off his might' under the city.

"King, Zhao Jun of Feixian Pass has finally understood!" Che Ganqian sneered wantonly at the head of the city.

Uwei Tuo also laughed smugly. Looking at the high oar that was slowly dragged up the city wall by Zhao Jun with a little disdain, even if this thing can withstand the arrows, but in the end it is still wood, and it can't stop the fire.

Burning the city!

Uwei himself still didn't know how to resist. In his opinion. The only way to do that is to exhaust the attacking side's fuel. After all, this thing costs a lot of money, and throwing a fire pot is the same as throwing money!

Time passed slowly, until it turned to the hour. The quiet battlefield became lively for a moment. Almost at the same time, seventeen were filled with hot oil. The crockpot with an open flame burning at the seal was thrown by a stone-throwing machine towards the southern wall of Feixian Pass.

Like seventeen fireworks that burst at the same time, the crockpot burst in an instant, and the hot oil splashed on all sides, igniting the fire.

Seventeen irrigations, followed by seventeen irrigations, continued to be fired, until the entire southern city wall turned into a sea of fire again after eight luns, and they stopped at the same time.

"The stone thrower advances, reaches thirty paces away, and then smashes it at the king." Looking at the Zhao soldiers who fled with their heads on the city, Uwei laughed.

I'm excited that I've found such a nirvana. This is thanks to Zhu Biao! If it weren't for him, how could he know that there was such a desperate plan in the world?

Hurt or not, and Uwei didn't care at all. If Dahu wants to survive and revive the glory of the past, he can only completely kill his opponent.

Maybe Dahu really can't kill the people of the Central Plains, this task is really whimsical. But it is also necessary to completely destroy the arrogance of the people of the Central Plains and their intentions towards the prairie!

.........The low sound of the horn resounded through the heavens and the earth, and the high-spirited fighting spirit soared into the sky. In the afternoon of that day, Hu Qi finally began to attack.

And the entire Feixian Pass has been burned down by the fire. If it weren't for Zhao Dezhao, who saw the opportunity quickly, he immediately ordered the army and the people to open a separation zone, and even his own general's mansion would not be saved.

The arrows were like a torrential rain, pouring down on the southern wall of Feixian Pass. Five thousand golden wolf cavalry, this number is a fundamentally incomparable amount for the Zhao army defending the city, not to mention that the goal of these golden wolf cavalry is only to concentrate on the city wall.

The continuous rain of arrows looked far away, like a dark cloud that did not dissipate over the head of Feixian Pass, continuously pouring water in the clouds towards the city.

"What a rain of arrows!" Zhao Dezhao also had to sigh with emotion.

Every Golden Wolf cavalry is the best archer. Everyone is constantly setting up arrows and bending bows, which is a veritable storm of arrows. Hu Qi is completely bullying people with human power, and he is suppressing people with force! Even if the archers and crossbowmen of the Zhao army at the head of the city exchanged their lives for their lives, they might not be able to weaken the strength of the Hu cavalry under the city.

"Hidden, all hidden." Zhao Dezhao so ordered. Those who know the times are hard to use with Hu Gou at this point, and they don't know how many lives they have to fill in.

"General, the Zhao soldiers on the head of the city don't dare to show their heads!" A thousand riders said proudly to his own ten thousand riders.

"Order the Golden Wolf Rider to fire three more arrows! You, you, and you, each lead a team of 1,000 men to rush me forward! A triumphant smile tugged at the corner of Uweida's mouth. It's just the back of Feixian Pass, and there is not even a place in the urn city, which can't block the way for the Immortal Heavenly Warriors to return home.

In the rain of arrows that continued with the Golden Wolf Cavalry. The thorn tiger took the lead, and with a shout, a golden wolf cavalry thousand cavalry commanders, two standing cavalry thousand cavalry troops, each led a soldier and horse, pushing the ladder cart, roaring, shouting, and rushing towards the head of Feixian Pass.

"Kill!" Set up the ladder car, the thorny tiger took the lead in climbing the ladder, and climbed towards the city first! Behind him, there were countless Hu knights who were inspired by him or longed to return home.

The resistance of the Zhao army at the head of the city was still quite stubborn. But it only took two quarters of an hour for the Thorn Tiger and others to kill the city one after another. In a short time, two or three hundred people rushed to the head of the city and gained a firm foothold!

"Good!" Uweida, Uki, and others shouted loudly. Hope is just around the corner, the lock of the gate of Feixian Pass has been opened by them, and then as long as you gently push the door, your hometown is in front of you!

Countless Hu knights are cheering!
