Volume 1 The Wind Rises Chapter 164 Set off for Wuji Mountain
Xiao Wuji picked up the bamboo slip, glanced at it, and then said, "Lord Wang, this is the heart of the Thousand Cities Pavilion that wants to disturb my army and people, don't be fooled."
"Could it be that our army of 50,000 can't be ridiculed by them like this?" Nangong Mountain was furious.
"The other party is so deliberate, there must be a plan, we must be on guard." Xiao Wuji reminded again.
"Is it tolerable or unbearable, if you don't kill the majesty of the Thousand City Pavilion, where is the majesty of my royal family?" Nangong Shan almost lost his composure.
Li Feibai just watched silently from the side and didn't say a word.
Letting Zhao Qiancheng sprinkle bamboo slips is naturally a prelude to the whole plan, no matter whether Nangong Mountain will be provoked or not, he has a way to deal with it.
"Yu Guangli." Nangong Shan called loudly.
"The end will be."
"Where is the helm of the Thousand Cities Pavilion?"
"Back to the prince, twenty miles west out of the city, there is a Wuji Mountain, and the helm of the Thousand Cities Pavilion is in the middle of the mountain." Yu Guangli returned.
"Huh?" Nangong Shan's face suddenly turned cold, and he narrowed his eyes and asked Yu Guangli: "Since you know where the chief rudder of the Thousand Cities Pavilion is, why didn't your city defense army encircle and suppress it, are you afraid?"
"Lord Mingjian, Wuji Mountain is full of cliffs, there is only a narrow mountain road leading to the top of the mountain, easy to defend and difficult to attack, they occupy a natural geographical advantage, it is simply a matter of ten thousand people!" Yu Guangli hurriedly knelt down and explained.
"Hmph, I'm still scared after all." Although there was an explanation, Nangong Shan was still dissatisfied.
"The last general once organized an attack, the Thousand Cities Pavilion gang just used rolling stone fire oil, and did not show up, our side lost dozens of people, and we didn't even see a single figure of the other party, the last general is not afraid, but he doesn't want to make senseless sacrifices." Yu Guangli explained again.
Hearing him say this, Li Feibai said secretly: It's done.
He understands Nangong Mountain, is blind and arrogant, and is a person who does not hit the south wall and does not look back.
The more Yu Guangli explained, the more he had to do the opposite.
Perhaps, he wanted to eagerly prove that he was no worse than Nangong Ding.
Sure enough, Nangong Shan said, "Since the city defense army can't do it, then leave it to us."
He stood up.
"Order the three armies, rest tonight, and order troops tomorrow to attack Wuji Mountain."
"Lord Wang, please think twice." Xiao Wuji stood up, looking anxious.
"Maybe tonight's bamboo slips are just to provoke us and let us take the initiative to attack, so that they can take advantage of it!"
"I've made up my mind, so I don't need to persuade again." Nangong Shan waved his hand and said, "This time, I must take the old nest of the Thousand Cities Pavilion to avenge the five thousand soldiers who were poisoned."
Seeing that the persuasion was fruitless, Xiao Wuji turned his face to Li Feibai, he knew that if there was one person in the field who could stop Nangong Mountain, it would be him.
"Mr. Bai, quickly persuade the prince."
With a wry smile, Li Feibai said slowly, "Commander Xiao, to be honest, I don't know much about Qiancheng Pavilion, so it's hard for me to guess their style of acting."
"This ......" Xiao Wuji was speechless for a moment, a little surprised by Li Feibai's answer.
It stands to reason that he couldn't be unaware of the Thousand Cities Pavilion's intentions.
"Since Fei Lidu says so, then do as the king wills." Nangong Mountain clappers.
The crowd dispersed.
Xiao Wuji's mood is complicated, on the one hand, he really hopes to get rid of Nangong Mountain for King Zhao, and this trip is the best opportunity.
However, Nangong Ding has repeatedly emphasized that the overall situation is the most important.
If you take this opportunity to get rid of Nangong Mountain and put the blame on the head of the Qiancheng Pavilion, then the Qiancheng Pavilion will definitely rebel on a large scale, the treasury of the defense of the country will be empty, and there will be internal worries, and the result will be unpredictable.
Helpless, he could only follow Nangong Ding's intention and protect the safety of Nangong Mountain.
At that time, the clouds on the horizon were dyed red by the rising sun, as if they were also adding a touch of color to the coming chaos.
The Thousand Cities Pavilion claimed to be 100,000 people, but not all of them gathered in Baijiang City, according to their information, the total rudder was only 20,000 people at most.
Coupled with the shortage of money in the cabinet, three out of ten escaped, and now there are only 15,000 people left.
However, Nangong Mountain didn't seem to accept this, and he ordered all the soldiers to go out together.
The 45,000 Beishan garrison, plus 1,800 Black Dragon Guards, headed towards Wuji Mountain.
He wants to fight the royal family.
Hmph, idiot!
Li Feibai, who watched the army leave, kept sneering in his heart.
He did not accompany the army, and Nangong Mountain left him in the city for his safety.
"Do you think that leaving two hundred black dragon guards to guard the grain and grass will be foolproof?"
The corners of Li Feibai's mouth pulled up an evil smile.
In less than half a day, Nangong Mountain led the army to the foot of Wuji Mountain.
Looking up, the mountain peaks are towering into the clouds, and the top of the mountain cannot be seen at a glance, and the foot of the mountain is gloomy and chilling, and the few birds that are left are startled and flutter their wings and disappear.
"Lord Wang, Captain Yu is right, this mountain is extremely steep, there is only a narrow path, and we can't give full play to our numerical advantage when fighting in this terrain." Xiao Wuji persuaded again.
At this time, it is still too late to return to the city office.
"Once the military order has been issued, how can there be any reason to repent, how can I, the Davids, open roads and build bridges in the mountains and rivers, and the mountains are merely endless?" Nangong Shan then ordered:
"Come on, remove the trees and rocks on both sides of this road and clear a thoroughfare."
More than 40,000 people want to stand in a row and face the top of the mountain at the same time. Attacking, unless one side of the entire mountain is leveled, it is simply impossible to do it.
Under Xiao Wuji's repeated suggestions, Nangong Shan finally compromised and cleared a road ten zhang wide first, barely allowing some of the Black Dragon Guards to fight together.
Although there are many people and great strength, but the mountain is high and steep, such a huge project, the army took turns, spent a day and a night, and finally cleared a road less than a hundred feet from the top of the mountain.
The sergeant was exhausted, Xiao Wuji frowned slightly, and felt uneasy.
"Lord Wang, it's so strange." Lin Tianchong stood beside Nangong Mountain and said loudly.
"What's so strange?"
"With such a big movement of ours, all the armies are almost at the top of the mountain, it stands to reason that it is impossible for the people of the Thousand Cities Pavilion not to notice it, why is the mountain so quiet?"
"Woohoo"
As soon as the words fell, several sharp arrows flew out from the top of the mountain and shot at the army.
The Black Dragon Guard, who was blocking the front, blocked the attack with a wave of his hand.
"That's it?" Nangong Shan smiled contemptuously.
"Sure enough, it's just recklessness, and the arrows shot are all weak."
Hearing his words, the sergeant let out a burst of laughter.
"Don't be underestimated!" Xiao Wuji shouted loudly and stopped everyone's laughter.
Suddenly, the earth shook beneath their feet.
Nangong Mountain was almost untenable, Lin Tianchong poured his strength into his feet, nailed it firmly to the ground, and held Nangong Mountain's arm with one hand.
"This ...... What's going on?" Yu Guangli's eyes showed a look of horror.
Xiao Wuji took the lead, standing at the front, looking up at the top of the mountain, and groaning slightly.
After a few breaths, he shouted:
"No, it's a rolling stone!"
