Dusk, sunset.

Countless black crows and birds scurried up from the mountains and forests.

Rows of war drums were pulled out of the Wild King City and were silent at the foot of the mountain.

More than 2,800 soldiers divided into three groups and marched silently up the mountain.

One climbs from the cliffs, one in heavy armor and an iron shield to attack head-on, and one in the back.

The troops on the sheep intestine trail could not be deployed.

Li Yue set up a bed at the foot of the mountain, sat with a sword, and quietly looked at the mountains.

The setting sun soon flooded the mountains, and twilight covered the land.

The guards lined up on the left and right, and the armor soldiers lined up in front.

A murderous aura rose from the ground.

In Li Yue's view, there is no pass that cannot be broken, and after such a long standoff, the enemy army must have slackened.

If one Zhang Ping can't solve it, how can the Black Cloud Army sweep the world in the future?

Minutes and seconds passed.

Suddenly there were screams, fights, and roars on the mountain.

The first pass is Yangjisaka, and the enemy army is not heavily guarded, only a few arrow towers.

But the danger of Tianjing Pass is not here, but the bowl city behind, Hengwang Pass, Xiaokou Pass, etc., after these dangerous places, and then Tianjing Pass.

"Your Highness, Li Wubu attacked the sheep intestines!"

"Your Highness, Zhao He and Li Qi have captured Bowl City!"

The scout brought back all kinds of good news, but Li Yue knew that this was just the beginning.

The enemy only needs to hold any level to block the attack of the Black Cloud Army.

The news brought back next was not so smooth, "Your Highness, Li Wubu is blocked from looking at the pass!" ”

The sound of fighting on the mountain grew louder and louder, piercing the dark night.

"Li Wu, Zhao He, Li Qi, and a thousand people from the rear army are storming Hengwang Pass!"

"Beat the drums!" Li Yue waved his hand.

Hundreds of war drums roared, and the majestic sound resounded throughout the mountains.

After the three-way drumming was over, the battle on the mountain was still continuing, and the drum beat gradually lowered.

Li Yue pinched a cold sweat in his heart, he couldn't sit still anyway, so he simply beat the drum himself.

A mallet slammed into the drums of war, and the drums began to beat again.

"Your Highness, good news, Hengwang Pass has been captured by our army!" The scout rode his horse, and there was irrepressible joy on his face under the light of the torches.

Only then did Li Yue throw down the drumstick and sit back on the bed.

However, the capture of Hengwang Pass also paid a considerable price, with more than 370 soldiers killed in battle, more than 1,000 people attacking the mountain, and almost everyone was wounded.

Li Qi was seriously injured and was carried back, Zhao He was slightly injured, and he led the army to attack forward.

Li Yue personally bandaged him.

Fortunately, he only lost too much blood and was temporarily unconscious.

As the night deepened, the light of the torches made the night even darker.

The mountain is also lit up with sparkling firelight, echoing with the stars in the sky, decorating Taihang Mountain with extra brilliance.

A swarm of flying insects flew around the torches, and several moths threw themselves directly into the flames, and with a soft "boom", the charred corpses of the moths fell to the ground.

Li Yue looked at the insect corpses on the ground and was stunned.

Moths to the fire, this omen is a bit unlucky.

However, in the dark history of history, there is always a need for some moths who dare to pounce on the flames.

All of them are wise and cunning, and they are all smart people, but it is the great sorrow of this nation.

"Your Highness......" The scout hesitated.

His face and hands were covered with blood marks from branches and thorns.

"Say!" Li Yue suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart.

"Lieutenant Li Wudu...... led seventy-five dead men to attack Xiaokou Pass, and the enemy ambushed them, seventy-six men, all ...... Killed ......"

It turned out that the moth to the fire should be on him.

Li Yue's heart trembled, the Yi'er Army was as its name suggested, almost Li Yue's righteous son, and he was absolutely loyal, but he didn't expect to lose an excellent son here.

But there was no expression on his face.

In such a vicious battle, casualties are inevitable, and we have long been mentally prepared.

"Probe!"

"Yui!" The scout carried a bag of water, drank it as he ran, and the figure faded into the night.

Perhaps it was Li Wu's death that stimulated the bloody nature of the soldiers, and half an hour later, Xiaokou Pass was also captured.

But by this time it was already dawning.

There are only two passes left before the patio gate.

Li Yue led his guards to climb the mountain, and he didn't sleep all night, but he didn't feel the slightest sleepiness at this time.

Tianjing Pass is worthy of the name of Tianjing, walk into the sheep intestine path, the cliffs on all sides are like cutting, and you are in it, just like sitting in the well and watching the sky.

Walked to the three poles of the sun, and only then did he arrive at the small pass.

Li Yue was tired, the soldiers in armor were even more tired, and Cui Hong was weak, so he couldn't walk to Bowl City.

In the pass, there were soldiers sleeping on the ground everywhere, and some people slept directly in corpses and pools of blood, if it weren't for the snoring one after another, Li Yue would have thought it was a corpse.

The surrounding walls and stones are full of marks of slashing with knives and hammers.

It can be seen that this battle was fierce.

"There are still Xingyi Station and Turtledove Ridge left ahead!" Zhao He, who was injured all over his body, arched his hand.

Li Yue patted him on the shoulder, "Can you still fight?" ”

Zhao He's eyes lit up, "I will break the patio pass, and I vow not to return it!" ”

"Good!" Li Yue didn't say much.

Since you have put on your armor, you have to accept the fate of fighting and fighting.

Half an hour later, Li Yue only felt a cheer coming from above his head, and after a while, the scout came down from above, "Report to Your Highness, Li Yibu has succeeded in sneaking up on Xingyi Station from the trail." ”

Li Yue nodded with satisfaction.

None of these soldiers failed him.

"Up!" Zhao He shouted.

In the pile of corpses, hundreds of people suddenly stood up, and when they saw Li Yue, they were stunned at first, and then rejoiced, "Your Highness!" ”

Li Yue ordered the guards behind him to bring wine and meat, "Eat more!" ”

After a night of fighting, tired and hungry, wine and meat were coming in time.

The soldiers grabbed the wine and meat and feasted on it.

Zhao He poured a sip of wine, and his face increased some spirit, but it was more resolute, "Your Highness, wait a minute, the minister will go to take the turtledove ridge!" ”

Li Yue nodded slightly.

The remaining soldiers smashed the wine bowl in their hands on the ground, bowed their hands to Li Yue, and continued to climb the mountain.

Li Yue also followed them.

The enemy also seemed to be intimidated by the momentum of the Black Cloud Army, and after a fierce battle all night, the dangers that seemed to be impossible to open were broken one after another, and it was impossible not to be demoralized.

In less than an hour, Ikaruga Ridge was also captured.

The further back on, the easier it was to fight, the enemy was exhausted and demoralized, and the pass was not as good as before.

At this point, all the passes outside the Tianjing Pass were captured.

Li Yue took more than 1,000 guards to Chen Bing.

The bodies of more than 700 soldiers who died were placed in the open space in front of the pass, and Li Yue covered them with black clouds and red flags one by one.

They only took them in, but they rewarded them with their lives.

The enemy army also watched from afar.

Other passes have been breached, and Tianjing Pass is naturally no exception.

Zhang Ping has not been in charge of the party for a long time, probably because he didn't expect the Black Cloud Army to attack here, the city is in tatters, all relying on some rocks and wood stacked up, and it is not as solid as the small pass and the horizontal pass.

"King Liang is here, why don't the rats run for their lives!" Li Yue held his sword in front of him, and ordered the guards to shout loudly towards the gate.

Behind him, the teeth fluttered with the mountain wind, and the huge "beam" character stood between the mountains and clouds.

Suddenly there was silence again, and only the wind echoed through the mountains again and again, and it was not stopped for a long time.

"King Liang is here, why don't the rats run for ......their lives?"

The Black Cloud Army can kill here, it has already crushed the enemy's morale, and the elites who can fight have fallen to the front pass.

With a bang, there was a burst of chaos in the gate, and even the banner with the word "Zhang" fell from the city......
