Cang Shihong summoned the generals of the six battalions stationed abroad to enter Beijing to receive the title, and instructed them to help Zuo Wugang grow into a general. For this matter, the six people must agree with each other, because Wu Gang is their savior, and now is the time for them to report to Wu Gang, plus Wu Gang is very proud, how can he not love and like it?

Xu Qi and others then met with Wu Gang, and everyone discussed the formation of the integrated troops, and finally agreed:

The whole battalion of the cavalry battalion of the Xuqi Department was dispatched as a probe force, bringing its own military rations, passing through the city to bypass and move forward, and quickly find out the enemy's situation along the way.

Half of the infantry battalion was divided into food and grass, and the army took the first step, and joined the other half at the Tiger Leap Pass.

The Forward Battalion was drawn after the Cavalry Battalion.

Afterwards, the four battalions of infantry, guards, Jianrui, and Shenji were drawn out in batches.

Suddenly, when he heard the holy decree from outside, it turned out that Wei Jian had allocated 2,000 bows, 100,000 arrows, 10,000 shields, and 10,000 spears from the treasury to serve as military funds for this expeditionary force.

On this day, Wu Gang resigned from Wei Jian and Cang Shihong, took the guards, went to the Shenji Camp, and made a place with Hao Baixiu, and saw that he was ready in the camp, just waiting for him to arrive, and immediately raised the banner to form a system and move forward.

The Sixth Route Army went straight up along the Swill River, the terrain was flat all the way, and all the letters and newspapers in front of it were advancing along the lì, without encountering obstacles, and without elaboration.

On this day, I saw that the sky was dark in the distance, and the Xiongguan Tiger Leaping Gorge had been swallowed up by darkness, and the water of the Swill River still smelled.

On one side is the sun is shining and the snow is covered, and on the other side is dark and cloudy. Black and white. Man and demon rule in this realm. I don't know how many demon soldiers peeked out in the darkness. It was as if there were countless pairs of eyes looking at him. The sergeants in the army had never seen such a sight, and they all seemed to see the eyes hiding in the darkness revealing a fierce light, shooting into the depths of their hearts, and they did not feel a chill hit their hearts.

The army assembled in the Guanxia Plain, and the garrison of Huohe Hama City arrived with the horse officials of the Taifu Temple who had escaped, and reported the reconnaissance experience, and there were already demonic fortifications on the pass, and the trees all over the mountain had died. There are only bare bare mountains.

At night, Wu Gang was looking at the book "The Last Words of the Tower King" in front of the tent, and the black spirit was lying in front of the desk. Suddenly, the wind outside the tent blew, and a gloomy voice sounded: "The big war is coming, Wu Gongzi is so leisurely." He is worthy of being the son of the servant of the sky. ”

Wu Gang didn't see anyone left and right, and the black spirit didn't move, obviously it didn't hear it, and the guards outside the tent didn't make a sound, let alone hear it. He suddenly remembered that there was a ghost clan, and the people of the clan could turn into a gust of wind. and can "transmit sound on the first line", but it takes a cup of time for the people of the ghost clan to turn into yin wind. Yufeng adults are also very slow, and they cannot take shape immediately and change quickly, which becomes their weakness, because their slow change in battle cannot bring strange and unpredictable effects to sudden attacks, but will be attacked by the enemy when they change, so they are the most suitable as scouts and messengers.

He closed the book, did not draw the knife, and raised his soul power to the fullest, spread it around his body, and gradually expanded. Sure enough, a voice shouted: "General Wu, you don't need to guard against me, I have no malice, and I am far away from you." ”

The yin wind swirled in front of the case, and at the time of a cup of tea, a black-clothed man with a full cloak appeared, the black spirit stood up and showed his tiger teeth, and walked over slowly, and the man retreated in fright.

Wu Gang stopped the black spirit and asked, "I didn't expect that the people of the ghost spirit clan were also under the command of the demons, take off your cloak, you are not a demon, you will not be afraid of the candlelight in front of my case." ”

The man took off his cloak, revealing a fleshless face that was nothing more than a skin covering a skeleton. The man said: "My clan is weak and weak, and it is impossible. ”

Wu Gang said: "I don't know what you brought?"

The man said: "The demons want me to pass on the message, the Tiger Leaping Gorge has been shrouded in darkness, and humans naturally can't use it, humans like light, demons like darkness, and the Tiger Leaping Gorge in the dark is suitable for the demons." ”

Wu Gang said: "Where I don't let an inch of land in the land of Zhongzhou, you go back and tell the demon general, let him quickly retreat, and return my mountains and rivers, otherwise, my army's iron hooves will crush the tiger jumping pass, so that he will lose more than he gains." ”

The man said with a sharp voice: "The demons said, the dark places are all demon lands, and the bright lands are all managed by people, and it is only natural that you want to attack the Tiger Leaping Gorge is to invade the territory of the demons, and you are the culprit who provoked the war between the two countries." ”

Wu Gang said angrily: "It's nonsense, Tiger Leaping Pass has been the land of Middle-earth since ancient times, can the demons take the Tiger Leaping Pass as their own if they push the darkness forward? ”

Seeing Wu Gang's tough attitude, the man said, "Yes." Slowly turned into a gust of wind and left.

The next day, Wu Gang told the six lieutenants about the incident of last night, and the six were full of anger.

Wu Gang said: "The demons distorted the facts, and said with burning words that the dark land belongs to the demon land, and the bright land is all under the control of people, but secretly used evil magic to push the darkness forward, devoured my Tiger Jump Pass, and took it for himself. ”

Immediately, this war was designated as the "Battle of Huiguang", and an order was issued to the officers and men of the whole army to face the demon soldiers to carry out the "Battle of Huiguang" to the end.

He asked Hao Baixiu to repair the war book, and selected the warriors from the army to pass the war book. It lasted for ten days, and after ten days, it attacked the mountain in a big way.

On the ninth day, Wu Gang was training the three armies in Dianjiangtai, when he suddenly felt the yin wind turning, and he slapped a ghost man with a palm in the air, and that person showed his original form, a spy who sped on military intelligence. Wu Gang didn't look at it, and kicked him off the stage, only this kick, and he was killed instantly.

Yuanmen reported that there were three demons who wanted to see the general of Zhengxi, and Wu Gang ordered him to enter. The three demons walked with their heads held high, and when they saw Wu Gang, they didn't salute, and the leader looked at the corpses of the underground ghosts, and said: "The 'Battle of the Light' is unreasonable, since ancient times, the dark land is the demon land, and the bright land is all under the control of people. ”

It's okay that he doesn't mention Wei Jian, but when he mentions Wei Jian, Wu Gang can't bear it anymore and wants to kill someone. Huang Ling stepped forward and punched and kicked, knocked the demon to his knees in three or two strokes, and said, "When you see my General Wu, you don't salute." ”

Hao Baixiu said: "Tiger Leaping Pass has been the land of my Central Continent since ancient times, and you are robbing it clearly." ”

The demon man knelt on the ground, his mouth still hard, and said, "Our General Xia Dachun said that the color of darkness is naturally generated, and you have the ability to restore the light of the Tiger Leaping Pass, so we will naturally withdraw." ”

Wu Gang said: "Well said, to restore the light, it is you who are looking for it, and it is you who use dark evil arts." Go back, I won't kill you, attack the mountain tomorrow, you get ready. ”

The siege of the mountain was neither a siege nor a field battle, and the cavalry of the Suqi Division could not be used. On the second day, Lu Zhou asked for orders to attack the mountain, and Wu Gang allowed it.

The 3,000 soldiers entered the Tiger Leaping Gorge in the dark, but the terrain was unfamiliar, and the darkness was full of archers of the demon army, and the battle suffered heavy losses.

After that, the battalions took turns to attack the mountain, and the stones and rolling wood on the mountain poured down like a torrent, and after a month, more than ten times were defeated, and the battle dragged on for a while.

The generals calculated that the demon soldiers were in the darkness as the Terrans were in the light, and the soldiers were completely exposed to the enemy's noses when they entered the darkness, and they should attack with fire. The mountain is full of dead wood, just enough to burn the mountain.

Wu Gang thought that this plan was feasible, and for a while, the mountain was full of fireworks, burning all the dead trees, and taking care of the tiger leaping like day. However, the fire also blocked the way to attack the mountain, and the demons on the top of the mountain had already cleared the dead wood before the fire burned, but they could not get close.

In the blink of an eye, a few months have passed, and this war cannot be fought, and it has become a long-delayed trend.

Wu Gang was a little bored in his heart, he went out for a walk, and unconsciously, when he arrived at the edge of the Swill River, he saw that the riverbed was dry, and there was no grass on the mountain, and there was no water to flow.

He crossed the riverbed to the other side, traced his way up, and soon entered the mountains, and realizing that he was gradually entering the darkness, he simply turned his heart sideways, and went on again, into a canyon. The canyon is so narrow that if there is light, it will be a ray of heaven when you look up. No wonder it's called Tiger Leaping Gorge, and when you reach the top of the mountain, it must only be as wide as a tiger. It seems that this mountain is divided into two sections in the north and south with this canyon, and his army is attacking the southern section, and I don't know if there are any magic soldiers guarding the northern section.

Thinking of this, he clinged to the stone wall and quietly swam up. When I reached the top of the mountain, I could already hear the demon soldier talking. After listening carefully for a while, it was the defenders on the north and south sides who were talking, because the mountain wind was too strong to hear clearly.

He approached the top of the cliff lightly, leaped up to the southern section, and took the two guards at the same time. The two demon soldiers never dreamed that someone would suddenly attack them, and they didn't know how to fight back. Wu Gang was extremely fast, and after catching the two of them, he jumped down the mountain. The shouts of the two demon soldiers became farther and farther away from the fortifications on the mountain, and for a moment the demon soldiers rushed out to chase down the mountain.

Wu Gang ran like a gust of wind, and when he reached the foot of the mountain, he ran into Huang Ling head-on, and shouted: "The infantry come forward, wait for the demon soldiers to reach the open ground to block it." And he ordered the cavalry to be outflanked from both flanks.

He stood in front of the camp, and saw that the demon soldiers had broken out of the darkness and killed the Huang Ling camp, and the archers in the infantry shot a row of arrows, and some demon soldiers fell in front of him.

The demons still swarmed forward, the crossbowmen in the army firing crossbow arrows, and the infantry blocking them with shields.

The two sides fought each other in short combat, and the sound of slashing and slashing with swords, guns, and halberds sounded like a tide. At this time, the cavalry outflanked from both flanks and rushed towards the demon army formation like a storm.

The two sides of the demon soldiers were lost, panicked, and suffered countless casualties. Fortunately, at this time, another group of demon soldiers rushed down from the mountain, and only then did they take the rest of the people back, leaving corpses everywhere. This battle has slightly blown away the haze in the hearts of the soldiers for several months. (To be continued......)
