Huang Zhong's rapid march of 3,000 men actually crossed the Micang Mountain, and only 800 people reached the other side of the mountain range.

It's like they're crawling in the mud, and they're already in a mess...

They really can't run.

Even, they will have a feeling in a trance, don't run! If they run again, their lives will be lost!

To run is to die, not to run... If you can't keep it, you still have a life.

But this thought only stayed for a moment, and then they reined in their thoughts, yes, it's all here... If you don't run, won't all your previous efforts be in vain?

This battle is like a dog!

This is running away, it's worse than death!

Whereas... The most important thing is that they are still surrounded by these mountains, and it is easy to go up the mountain and difficult to go down... The devil knows... How long will it take for them to completely climb over one mountain after another!

As for... Their general Huang Zhong!

It seems that the tireless one forever, the devil knows... How much strength does this old man still have, he seems to always be at the forefront, always pointing to the mountains in front of him with full of vigor and saying: "After crossing this mountain, you will reach the water, everyone can rest for a while, and then set up an ambush..."

And then, there is no then.

Only the familiar words were repeated again and again: "Over this mountain..."

Hehe, flip your uncle's...

Mountains after mountains, as if endless, over this one, there is no know how many!

Finally... This hope was still dashed, the soldiers really couldn't run, desperate they would rather lean on the roots and die here than continue to move forward, they really couldn't run.

It stands to reason that this was the time of the handover of winter and spring, and it was on the high mountains, and these hurried marches threw down their heavy armor, leaving only light equipment for simple travel, they should be very cold, and they should be shivering... Trembling, but all the way to the attack, they were almost drenched in hot sweat, and when they took off their clothes and twisted them, they could overflow with sweat.

Huang Zhong also knew that he was gambling.

Gambling that his soldiers can rush to the water to set up an ambush before they are all tired, and gamble... Xiahou Yuan's march in this mountain area was not fast enough!

That's the limit of what he can do!

But obviously, he also underestimated the difficulty of this mountain march, which was... He has a good guide, he avoids a lot of unnecessary mountain trails, but he gallops all the way, and even the guide falls eighty percent ...

Call... Call...

With a heavy exhalation, Huang Zhong was also panting for breath, he was also exhausted, sitting on a boulder, squinting slightly at the ragged team behind him, many people staggered and numb forward, the whole team seemed to be lifeless because of exhaustion...

In a dilemma!

He couldn't think of any more apt words than those four words.

"All stand up... Climb over the mountain in front of you... It's just that..."Huang Zhong's heavy shout groaned again, there was no crispness as before, he had to paint the cake as always... Draw flatbread!

This is like the "dream building project" in later generations, as long as there is a dream, the leeks will always grow taller, and the leeks will always be cut off one day.

"Old General Huang..."Yan Yan couldn't stand it, his voice was extremely hoarse, "Don't fool them, they don't believe in the general anymore..."

This...

Huang Zhong paused, he looked at these veterans in front of him, at this moment... These eight hundred soldiers also looked at him, just as Yan Yan said, their eyes no longer had the trust and love they had at the beginning, but more numbness! Dead to all feeling!

It's like, they all know that Huang Zhong is a liar and is painting cakes... But they all understand Huang Zhong, and they can't explain it thoroughly, and they can't explain it thoroughly.

Call...

Huang Zhong couldn't help but exhale, his thoughts were spinning quickly in his mind, he was thinking... This "big pie" is shattered, what should be replaced with to continue to draw cakes...

Alas, painting cakes is not an easy task.

With a bit of melancholy, Huang Zhong looked at the few rays of sunlight shining through the dry forest, and said to Yan Yan beside him, "You're right, they are all veterans, and they have persevered here, not exhausted... No one will stop..."

For a moment, Huang Zhong hesitated, and from the bottom of his heart, he began to question... His plan to climb over Mt. Rice Cang is a little oxal!

Maybe... He should have only set up a city defense on the top of the hill and waited for the arrival of the army;

Maybe... He could have been less desperate, but yet... Perhaps, if he did so, he would have lost a once-in-a-lifetime chance to defeat the enemy and win his first victory.

"Do you want to continue, I don't force it, but as long as I, Huang Zhong, don't die of exhaustion, I will continue to climb this mountain... Those who still have the strength will walk with me, and those who can't walk... Give them dry food, let them rest on the spot and wait for rescue..."

Huang Zhong stood up under Yan Yan's support, in his boots, the footcloth had not dared to tear it for eight days, and the Han water and the water oozing out of the calluses seemed to have glued the footcloth to the flesh and skin.

If you think about it, you know that when you want to tear it open, it must be painful and miserable.

So, he bared his teeth and gave the final order.

It's just that this time... Unlike before, there were no soldiers who stood up and followed him.

I really can't walk anymore!

Even if it's climbing... I can't climb anymore!

But at this moment, the scout who came first suddenly shuttled out from among the dry trees, "General Huang... General Huang..."

The scout's tone was hurried, and in his unkempt image, it was difficult to hide his excitement.

"Ahead... Ahead..."The scout pointed to the mountains in front of him, his throat choked, and he cried with tears in his eyes, "There is water ahead... There is water ahead, and the enemy has not yet arrived... The enemy forces have not yet arrived ... However, there were enemy outposts there, and there were traces of mules and horses transporting food nearby, and it was clear that the enemy troops were stationed on the other side of the water..."

This...

Although this scout was emotional, because of the broken quilt, his voice was not loud, and only Huang Zhong and Yan Yan could hear it clearly.

Immediately, the two looked at each other, especially Huang Zhong, who suddenly cheered up his spirits, and his eyes lit up... His tired face was rippling with color, and he hurriedly asked, "Are you sure?" Are you sure that the Wei army is stationed on the other side of the river? ”

"It's OK," the scout nodded repeatedly, "The smoke rising from the stove can probably be judged that there are more than 8,000 people, which corresponds to the number of Xiahou Yuan's soldiers and horses, at this time... appeared on the side of the water, except for him Xiahou Yuan... There seems to be no one else left. ”

Call...

With this scout's words, Huang Zhong almost cried.

Finally... It's finally here!

He immediately shouted at the crowd: "All gather around, listen to the orders of General Ben..."

The soldiers were expressionless one by one, more than 800 people, like... Like the walking dead, moving with the zombie-like pace, they gathered around.

Huang Zhong jumped up the stone steps step by step, and said loudly: "Now the order goes down, rest in place, prepare for battle, how much dry food is left, all of them are divided, and there is not much left, eat them all... When we crossed this mountain, there was water in front of us, and when we got there, we set up an ambush, and when we won the battle, we had more food and clothing! His Xiahou Yuan's grain, grass and baggage are all ours! ”

Belch...

Do you want to eat clean food?

This sudden sentence made the eyes of all the soldiers flash, this... Got to be true, huh? Otherwise... How could the old general Huang Zhong let them eat clean food? Burn one's ship?

Huang Zhong's words continued, and the horizontal flesh on his face shook, revealing a somewhat fierce and vicious appearance: "The enemy crosses the river, half-crossing and attacking, there is no need for a short knife or anything, all prepare the 'compound bow' and 'repeating crossbow', and when the enemy crosses the river from the shallows, it will be directly a bow and crossbow in unison, Mrs. Huang... The crossbow bolts of each repeater have been increased from fifty to one hundred, and only a few rounds of salvo are needed, and Xiahou Yuan belongs to the rabbit, and he must die in this river! ”

The repeater has a close range and high density, and is used for ambushes and raids;

The Mongolian compound bow has a long range and is used to pursue the enemy...

Huang Zhong's words have already shown that he wants to break the enemy in Bandu with the advantage of a "long-range" bow and crossbow!

This...

If you say what Huang Zhong said, it just makes everyone doubt... What he said may be true, over this mountain... Maybe you can really get to the water!

You can really get to the place where the enemy is ambushed.

So now... I don't want a short knife, and even the crossbow is set.

This... It seems that it is completely true!

Huang Zhong's voice still didn't stop, "I know that you are all working hard, but the achievements are right in front of you, and they all say that he Xiahou Yuan has five hundred in three days, one thousand in six days, and we have run a full 1,500 miles in the past eight and a half days, and they are all mountain roads... It's for this moment! ”

Speaking of this, Huang Zhong paused, and his voice became serious, "Yes, we only have 800 people, and the enemy has 8,000. It takes luck to win, but you all listen, I didn't believe in luck before, but... In Jingzhou, I really witnessed what bullshit luck, Yunqi has always been man-made! ”

"Jingzhou, Jingnan... is the place where you were born and raised, Dongwu Xiaoer tried in vain to get it, but he Guan Yunqi cracked and counterattacked Jiangdong with one move... Many people say it's luck! But when I came back from there, I knew that this was the bureau that he Guan Lin had laid out for a year, and he had been waiting for the day when Dongwu Xiao'er was treacherous! Hehe? Is this still luck? He Guan Yunqi can do this, he has the ability to turn the tide, he can plan so far, and all his luck will be on his side! And today, we... All the suffering for the past eight days is also for the luck of this battle! … It's just that you don't want to be so much, and you also think about your broken legs, hum... If this battle is not fought beautifully, is it worthy of the hardships and hardships of your old legs in the past eight days? ”

As he spoke, he couldn't help but pause, then his voice raised a few points, and his hand pointed to the back of the mountain in front of him, "Today, over this mountain, and then set up in ambush in the water, tomorrow morning... The thief army is coming, they are trapped in the water, they are like turtles in the river and let us slaughter, you were with me Huang Zhong when you were in Jingnan, such ambush battles, we have fought countless times, but this time is a great achievement! Meritorious service, glory and wealth, can you return to your hometown in the future... Right now! Fight once, and honor the three generations of your family! More than that! ”

Call...

Huang Zhong's words provoked bursts of heavy exhalation.

All of a sudden, the indifference and exhaustion of the soldiers were gone, and in their place were a pair of tormented eyes, suddenly oozing green light.

Will you be able to return home in the future? Right now!

Fight once, three generations!

These words seem to inspire all their fighting spirit.

"What the fuck—"

"It's done—"

"Fight once, Rong three generations-"

"The general said well, isn't it just to return home with a good head on your waist in this life?"

One by one, the soldiers suddenly became energetic, and they aroused high morale.

Huang Zhong listened to these passionate and uplifting words, and the stone hanging in his heart finally landed safely.

Hehe, this kid Guan Lin helped him again.

What bullshit luck! Hehe, the power of example is infinite, and it is the ultimate source of power for leeks to rise!

…

After boosting his morale, Huang Zhong pulled Yan Yan aside.

"General Huang? You..."

"I'm going to use that?"

Yes...

Huang Zhong's words startled Yan Yan, Yan Yan seemed to instinctively shake his hand, "You mean?" The gunpowder whip arrow developed by Madame Huang? ”

At the mention of gunpowder whips and arrows, Yan Yan trembled...

Speaking of which, since Huang Yueying developed black powder, these generals have witnessed the power of black powder.

This power depends on the amount of black powder... If the amount is sufficient, it is not difficult to blow up the entire city of Chengdu.

As for this gunpowder whip arrow, it is a combination of gunpowder and crossbow arrows, which is a special kind of arrow... The equivalent of an arrow has become an "explosive arrow"!

In addition, Huang Yueying boldly added white phosphorus to it.

Makes the explosion of gunpowder whip arrows within the range of ignition flames, even water... Nor can the flame be extinguished!

Huang Zhong brought some with him on this trip, which was originally a precaution...

And because the "gunpowder whip and arrow" has never acted on the battlefield, it is unknown what kind of consequences it will cause on the battlefield and whether it will hurt one's own people.

Therefore, Yan Yan was shocked...

"Exactly!"

But Huang Zhong, with his heavy chin, seemed to have made a decision.

Yan Yan persuaded: "Our army is in a hurry to march here, and it is already a sure victory to defeat the enemy... Why? And with this gunpowder whip and arrow... In case, if it is not used well, it will explode in our camp, but instead..."

Without waiting for Yan Yan to finish speaking, Huang Zhong stretched out his hand to stop Yan Yan's words, "Heber (Yan Yan), I know what you are worried about, but..."

Speaking of this, Huang Zhong looked back at the soldiers behind him, even though his fighting spirit was much higher, but... The cheeks still couldn't hide the tiredness.

Huang Zhong lowered his voice and said solemnly, "Even if this is a half-crossing attack on the enemy, this battle can only be resolved quickly, and the brothers' bodies and bones can't last long, so... Even if I had to take some risks, I decided to use this powder whip! ”

Following Huang Zhong's words, Yan Yan pondered for a moment, and then slammed his head.

"The last general understands! The end will be arranged! ”

…

…

The morning light was twilight, and the Xiahou Yuan camp on the north bank of the river had finished cooking, and the officers and men of the three armies could be said to have recuperated their energy, and finally had a full meal and made the most adequate preparations.

Now they are lined up on the north bank of the water, just waiting for their commander to give an order to cross the water immediately... You have to climb over the rice cang.

"Father..."Xiahou Yuan's eldest son, Xiahou Heng, was reporting to his father, "All the soldiers are ready, and the food supply line will also be established with the rapid march to ensure that the food is delivered to the mountain as soon as possible... If you have a heavy baggage, you can't carry it... The right is stacked on the north shore, but the father can rest assured that the child has been sent to take care of it to ensure that it will not be lost or damaged! ”

Xiahou Heng specifically mentioned "special care".

It stands to reason that... This kind of military baggage and weapons problem is a logistical problem, and Xiahou Yuan, as the commander of the three armed forces, should not attach too much importance to it.

But... Xiahou Heng knows his father, and he has always been particularly concerned about the consumption and wear and tear of these logistics, it seems that it is because of the poor family when he was young, right? He has developed a good habit of cherishing all military baggage and weapons!

No... "Habit" to be exact!

Hearing his son's story, Xiahou Yuan nodded, as if relieved, he raised his head and looked at the mountains from afar, and then asked Xiahou Ba: "Is there a flying pigeon?" Where is the Shu army now? ”

"It's still the south bank of the Han River..."Xiahou Ba replied directly, "The flying pigeon I just received, the smoke of the Shu army is all over the south bank of the Han River, as if, in the face of this Micang Mountain, the Shu army is also quite jealous, and does not dare to jump over easily!" ”

Receiving such a reply, Xiahou Yuan seemed to be quite satisfied, "Hehe..." he said with a light smile: "People are old and incompetent, and gods are old and spiritless!" That Huang Zhong is even more cowardly than I imagined, okay, pass on my military order, board the ship and cross the water-"

"Whew-"

"Whew-"

With a response from Xiahou Heng and Xiahou Ba.

"Woooooooo

The horn sounded, and the mighty eight thousand elites boarded the ship in an orderly manner, this Cao Weizhong, this Xiahou Yuan's subordinates, the god speed battalion that was very good at "running for a thousand miles" set sail!

On the other hand...

Among the trees on both sides of the water..."General Huang, the enemy has blown the trumpet, and most of them are about to cross the river..."

Yan Yan reminded Huang Zhong.

Huang Zhong's eyes condensed, coldly, and staring at the water tightly, his mood was excited and surging, but he was very calm and calm.

It was as if everything that was about to happen was expected by him.

"Don't panic, let the front army of the Wei army pass first, we will hit its front army with a crossbow, and cut off its rear road with gunpowder whips and arrows. In this battle, if Xiahou Yuan can be captured, the battlefield in Hanzhong will be stable! ”

Huang Zhong's voice was not loud, but every word seemed to be loud.

His hand tightly grasped the Mongolian compound bow at his side, his eyes became sharper and sharper, and the sharp edge in the cone pouch filled his pupils!

It's close... It's close...

As the fleet of the Wei army approached rapidly, Huang Zhong's mood was incomprehensible, and the big bow in his hand trembled faintly with hunger and thirst, as if... This Mongolian bow has been foreshadowed.

After shooting Xiahoudun in the right eye, it... It is about to usher in another qualitative leap in the ranking of "Weapons Spectrum"!

Finally... The Wei fleet had arrived at the ambush site.

Huang Zhong immediately ordered, "Blow the trumpet!" Shoot the arrows—"

Immediately...

"Woooooooo

It belongs to the Shu army, belongs to Huang Zhong, belongs to his Jingnan soldiers who have gone through hardships, and belongs to the horns of these 800 warriors who have persevered.

And then...

"Whoosh-"

"Whoosh-"

The crossbows were fired, and the crossbow arrows were like flying locusts, like raindrops, like waterfalls, and shot out densely.

One by one, the compound bows are drawn into a full moon... With the violent sound of "Zheng, Zheng", the gunpowder whip arrow swept through the air in a crescent-like arc and shot into the middle of the Wei army's fleet...

And then...

"Boom..."

"Boom..."

"Boom..."

An explosion resounded in the water, and for a while, the fire soared into the sky, and the whole water... The entire fleet of the Wei army, inside and out, up and down, was all on fire, and they were all tongues of fire that took people's lives!

…
