Snowflakes fall one by one on the world shrouded in the night.

The mountain breeze howls by, creating an icy and desolate atmosphere.

Eight hundred warriors were divided into twenty teams, each of forty men with long ropes, and the two men were separated by half a foot, and climbed on the slopes of this inaccessible and difficult terrain.

Walking in the forefront are naturally Lu Shen and Su Yunqing.

Lu Shen was not an immortal, and he could not conclude that the defenders in Yongquan Pass were defenseless, which meant that there was a possibility that this snowy night raid would be discovered.

There are many unimaginable accidents in the world, such as the original Beiyan Li Xuan'an Nantou, both sides have their own scheming, a big drama is about to be staged, but it was cut off by Lin Xi who suddenly appeared, neither Wang Shidao nor Xiao Wangzhi could count this accident.

In this environment tonight, it may be that the main general of the Yan army suddenly arranged some temporary sentry posts on both sides of the pass, or even the soldiers guarding the night suddenly ran to the ridge and found the Qi army attacking from the side.

But for Lu Shen and Xiao Wangzhi, compared to this less likely accident, the gains brought by the success of the raid far outweighed the risks.

If you want to storm Yongquan Pass head-on, the entire 3,000-foot army of the Ruishi Battalion may be filled under the pass, which is obviously an unacceptable result for Lu Shen.

It's not that he hasn't made other plans, such as using gunpowder to blow up the wall, after all, black powder has already shown its power in Baotai Mountain, but this method is difficult to play in Yongquan Pass.

Yongquan Pass is not a city, but a pass built between mountain roads, the length of the front pass wall is only 15 or 6 zhang, and the wall is built with rammed earth, and the bottom is a hard mountain stone. In such a narrow area, the Rui Shi battalion wanted to withstand the attack of the Yan army on the wall, and it was an impossible task to dig a hole under the wall and fill it with gunpowder.

Not to mention that black powder is not a yellow explosive, it is still not powerful enough, and it can still show good results when used to excite sharp weapons in mines, and trying to blast through hard rocks and rammed earth walls is tantamount to a fool's dream.

After comprehensive consideration, Lu Shen finally decided to wait for the heavy snow to come.

For this surprise attack, the soldiers of the Ruishi battalion were fully prepared, and when the first snow fell, they had quietly rushed to the Lai'an defense line, and then marched north day and night.

These 3,000 people can be said to be armed to the teeth, and the warmth measures are to the extreme, in addition to a hundred refining knives, each person also carries wine bags and jerky, which can replenish physical strength and heat at any time.

The snow had been falling, and after nearly two hours of slow climbing, the campfire inside the Yongquan Pass could already be faintly seen in front of it.

Lu Shen raised his right arm, and the soldiers behind him untied the long ropes that were implicated in each other, stopped and rested for a while, and took out the dried meat from the winter coat to replenish their strength.

Lu Shen observed the situation ahead, and said in a low voice: "It seems that the enemy army is indeed defenseless. ”

Su Yunqing smiled slightly, took over the conversation and said, "If it were me, I wouldn't think that the enemy would raid late at night in this kind of ghost weather." ”

There was a glint of excitement in his eyes.

The Warp Weaving Division began to reconnoiter the surrounding terrain of Yongquan Pass and Qingtian City many years ago, and when the army besieged Qingtian City last year, Su Yunqing personally led a group of masters to find a shortcut nearby, and finally let him find a hidden path in the east of Yongquan Pass.

Now, of course, he will no longer treat Lu Shen as a junior with potential, let alone let Lu Shen go to Heluo City as a secret agent, and the relationship between the two has changed unconsciously, from the initial superiors and subordinates to the current intersection. Although Lu Shen still retains the identity of the warp weaving department, Su Yunqing's attitude towards him has long changed.

It's just that no matter how vicissitudes of the world change, Su Yunqing is still the persistent temperament who is bent on the Northern Expedition, so he must follow the front army tonight.

Lu Shen generally understood the mood of the man next to him, and chuckled: "Master Su, how about killing more enemies than one of us?" ”

Su Yunqing's heart swelled with pride and ambition, and he said, "I can't ask for it!" ”

Lu Shen took off the wine bag hanging from his waist and gestured backwards at the same time.

Eight hundred warriors opened the wine sac at the same time, silently raised it to their lips, and then took a small sip.

The mountain wind is dignified, and the murderous atmosphere rises to the sky.

There were no grandiose words, no pre-war mobilization, and after ten months of rigorous training and Lu Shen's repeated indoctrination, these 800 people were able to put life and death aside long ago.

The liquor is in the belly, and the long knife is out of the sheath.

Lu Shen and Su Yunqing took the lead, still maintaining their previous speed, and the scene inside Yongquan Pass in front of them was becoming clearer and clearer.

When he was still more than ten zhang away from the mountain wall, Lu Shen made a gesture to the personal soldier next to him, who took out a firework from his bosom with understanding, and then raised his hand to the south.

On a cold and snowy night, there was silence under the pass, and the former guards of the pass had fallen into a deep dream except for the soldiers who stayed on the wall for the night. And the soldiers of the 1,000 Jing Dynasty in Houguan slept extremely sweetly, and the main general Shi Ge nested in his warm hut, lying on the bed loudly, still holding the wine bag in his hand.

Even the night guards who were struggling on the wall dozed off the brazier.

"Smack!"

A sharp sound pierced through the night.

Immediately afterward, a brilliant fireworks exploded above the Yongquan Pass, almost illuminating the night sky, even from miles to the south.

The Yan Jun by the brazier was awakened by this movement, they raised their heads blankly, looked at the fading fireworks above their heads, and couldn't help but rub their eyes, you look at me and I look at you, I don't know what happened.

The soldiers on duty at night on the wall all stood up, and some hurriedly went to the generals to report, but the vast majority of them stayed where they were.

Some of the clever soldiers hurriedly looked to the south, but there was still a dead silence outside the pass, and there was no movement.

At this moment, a sharp-eyed Yan Jun suddenly raised his hand to the east, and his voice trembled involuntarily: "That's?" ”

Everyone followed the prestige, only to see that in the flickering firelight, figures appeared one after another on the slopes of the east side of Yongquan Guan.

The two sides looked at each other, as if time had stood still.

"Enemy-Army-Night-Attack-"

In the midst of the howls of several Yan soldiers pulling their throats and being extremely frightened, Lu Shen raised the hundred refining knives in his hand and jumped into the pass first!

Behind him, eight hundred warriors rushed forward one after another, jumping down the hill like a rushing torrent, following Lu Shen in front to kill the Yan army in Qianguan.

The sound of fighting instantly annihilated the indifferent night.

Lu Shen rushed to the front, a team of Yan soldiers who were on vigil hurriedly greeted him, and the person at the front waved the long knife with a hideous expression, but when he saw Lu Shen's body trembling, he suddenly accelerated, and the next moment he came to him, and the hundred refining knife split from top to bottom, from the left face of this Yan army to the right chest, drawing a long wound.

He didn't have any reservations about this knife, and the internal strength of the hard practice and the Shangxuan Sutra for many years gushed out, and the blade was like a violent storm and extremely violent, and the Yan army barely had any reaction, and before he even had time to make a sound, he fell backwards with a bang.

The rest of the Yan army saw him so brave, and hundreds of tigers rushed up behind him, and they let out a shout in fright, and then scattered in all directions and fled.

Lu Shen didn't pursue immediately, but only said to Su Yunqing: "You take someone to the front to capture the pass!" ”

Su Yunqing nodded very decisively and said, "Okay! ”

With a big move, the eight hundred warriors were split in two, and half of them followed him to the southern wall.

Lu Shen took the remaining half of the people and went all the way to the depths of the pass.

At this time, the gong sounded on the wall to warn.

The Yan soldiers in their dreams were awakened one after another, but when they put on their clothes and armor and took their weapons and walked out of the barracks, they were swept into the turbulent tide by the warriors of the Ruishi Battalion who charged by, and then turned into powder.

In the largest barracks, Hu Linzhong and the messenger lay in their clothes, and on the table were several plates of cold soup and a few wine jugs, and the candles flickered.

"Eunuch! Metropolitan Prison! ”

Several guards broke into the barracks, shouting with panic on their faces.

The messenger woke up first, frowning at these unruly guards, but he was not the main commander after all, so he looked at them coldly.

Hu Linzhong slowly opened his eyes, his eyeballs were bloodshot, and he scolded angrily: "What are you doing?!" ”

One of the guards hurriedly shouted: "Eunuch, the Qi army has attacked at night and has rushed into the pass!" ”

Hu Linzhong's brain was instantly sluggish, and he subconsciously scolded: "Let go of Ling Niang's fart, how can the Qi army enter the customs, are all dead people on duty at night?" ”

The guards wanted to cry and said without tears: "Eunuch, the Qi army did not rush up from the pass, they climbed up from the eastern ridge!" ”

Hu Linzhong Huo Ran got up, picked up the spear beside the bed in one hand, and said angrily: "Hurry up and inform the Jing army in Houguan, and the others will follow me to meet the enemy!" ”

"Yes!"

Hu Linzhong picked up a gun and walked out of the house, and there were already hundreds of Yan soldiers around him, these people were basically his cronies, although the combat power was not as good as the Jing army in Houguan, but it was stronger than those who were on night patrol in front of him.

The only pity is that the Yan archers are all arranged near the pass, which means that they can only engage in white-knuckle combat with the enemy.

Hu Linzhong looked around, but saw that there were fires everywhere in the pass, and the shouts of killing were endless, and the Yan soldiers fell to the ground one after another, dying under the steel knives of the warriors of the Ruishi Battalion.

At this moment, his eyes were torn, and he rushed to the crown angrily, leading more than 100 relatives to continuously collect the Yan army that was fleeing in all directions, and then met the Qi army that was killing this side.

Among the crowd, Lu Shen took the lead, and as early as more than ten zhang away, he locked his eyes on Hu Linzhong, who was surrounded by the Yan army.

When you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins!

Hu Linzhong shouted violently and swung his gun at Lu Shen.

In the deep night, I saw that the sword light suddenly rose like a shock, Lu Shen's right foot kicked the ground, and his body shot out like lightning, and what fell in Hu Linzhong's eyes was the aggrieved murderous aura that instantly arrived in front of him.

He was frightened in his heart, and the spear swept straight into the waist and abdomen of the young military general opposite, trying to force the opponent back.

Lu Shen's eyes were cold, his body suddenly jumped up half a foot, and he stepped on the body of the opponent's gun, Hu Linzhong only felt a huge force from the body of the gun to his hands, which shocked him to numb, and he wanted to collect the gun but could not do anything, so he could only withdraw the gun and retreat.

At the moment when he hesitated, Lu Shen jumped forward again, twisted his body to exert force, and slashed in the air!

The blade was embedded in Hu Linzhong's neck, and his eyes widened suddenly.

Lu Shen landed on both feet, and then kicked forward, Hu Linzhong was directly kicked half a foot away, a puddle of blood sprayed in the night sky, and he was already killed after falling to the ground.

The Yan army was all shocked, looking at the god-like Lu Shen, and the Qi army behind him who seemed to be a tiger descending the mountain, and his face was full of panic.

Lu Shen looked at the other party coldly, and shouted angrily: "Kill!" ”

Hundreds of warriors responded.

"Kill!"

Pointing forward, the Yan army was defeated like a mountain, with heavy casualties!
