Chapter 270: Over the Mountain
"Newspaper~"
Xue Feixian said, "What's the matter?"
"Some scouts found a large number of cavalry thirty miles outside the city of Xique. ”
As the words fell, everyone stared at the map with deep meaning.
After a moment, Xuan Yi frowned and said, "The position of the enemy cavalry usually doesn't see anything. But once we attack the city, we will definitely be flanked in the abdomen, which will severely damage our army. ”
Su Muxin said: "Is there a way to break the enemy?"
Xuan Yi pondered for a moment and said, "I don't know what the strategy of the military division is to attack the city, so I don't dare to send troops and send generals. However, if you want to attack the city, you must first destroy this cavalry. ”
Su Muxin looked at Shen Shifang, but the latter looked at the soldiers who came to report it.
"How many troops are there?"
"It is reported that there are between two thousand and five thousand. ”
"Okay, you go down!"
"Yes!"
When Shen Shifang heard this, there were only a few thousand, and the standard for a cavalry battalion was six thousand. For the time being, he has a battalion, which is indeed a thorn in the side and must be pulled out.
He said: "Xuan Yi, you can fight as much as you want, and it will not hinder the siege strategy." ”
Xuan Yi nodded and said, "Humble and orderly." ”
With that, he walked out decisively.
Shen Shifang whispered a few words in Xue Feixian's ear at this time, and the latter walked out suspiciously.
No one knew what kind of medicine Shen Shifang was selling.
Early in the morning, Shen Shifang took off his armor and walked out of the camp with Lian Kongling.
He didn't tell anyone, and secretly went out of the camp as if he was going to do something bad.
One of them and one horse, they hurried to Zuoqian Mountain lightly.
That's right, it's Zuoqian Mountain.
He asked people to explore, this mountain belongs to the stone mountain, about 150 zhang high, stretching for dozens of miles. It is impossible to march, because there is no way to go, it is a natural barrier.
But the way is made by men.
Shen Shifang had never thought that a frontal assault could have much effect, and from the beginning of his march, he had been looking at Qianshan again.
If you can climb up, you can enter the city, and if you can enter the city, you can play a role in the city.
Therefore, he chose Liankong Tomb and Xiao Yang Yan, who had the best tacit understanding with him, and tried to enter the city to mix the water from this pious mountain that no one had crossed.
Although Xiao Yang's cultivation is not as good as Liankong Mausoleum, he has two advantages, one is that he can step on the snow to find plums, and the other is that he grew up in Sanssouci Village since he was a child, and climbing the mountain is a trivial matter.
Soon, the three of them hurriedly, and in less than two hours, they arrived at Zuoqian Mountain from Shuiyi City.
Why did you choose Zuoqian Mountain?
Because I'm afraid that there is a battalion of cavalry stationed on Youqian Mountain at this time, then Xuan Yi is probably trying to find a way to attack.
A pioneer battalion, plus a cavalry battalion, such an attack, the odds are very high, Shen Shifang believes in Xuan Yi.
Shen Shifang looked at the high Zuoqian Mountain, and kept looking, looking for a route to climb.
He drew the route on the ground and said, "I will go up first, at a position of about ten zhang, and when I am sure that there is no danger, you will follow." ”
After that, Shen Shifang wiped off the marks on the ground with his feet to avoid being discovered.
They have a position now, but the back of Xique City is very sensitive, and once it passes, it will be Xique City.
Lian Kongling nodded and said, "Be careful." ”
Shen Shi smiled and nodded, and began to climb.
The first part of the route was not difficult, but there were more thorn bushes and weeds, and he luckily took out the thorn cloud and used it as a wood knife to open the way.
Soon, Shen Shiyi climbed to a place ten zhang high, and he blew a whistle, which even Kong Ling and Xiao Yang sniffed
Voices up.
Since Shen Shifang had already opened the way, they were also relatively smooth, but they arrived in a moment.
Shen Shifang looked overhead, and the mountain in the middle of Zuoqian Mountain was relatively smooth, with only some concave and convex stones.
It was with these uneven stones that Shen Shifang dared to climb.
"I'll go up to the boulder up there in a moment. Shen Shifang pointed to a stone above, and he said, "I'll throw two ropes down, don't go up together, take turns coming up." One rope is tied around the waist and one is used for climbing. Is there a problem?"
Lian Kongling looked at it for a moment and said, "Little meaning, what about you, okay?"
He looked at Xiao Yang.
Xiao Yang scratched his head and said, "I am lightweight, and I have a light body that walks on the snow to find plums, so I believe it's not a big deal." ”
Shen Shifang said: "Okay, I'll go up first." ”
After saying that, Shen Shifang ran his true qi, jumped up, and instantly reached a height of one zhang.
He saw the opportunity, grabbed the protruding stone, used his arm to carry the true qi, used the protruding stone as a point of strength, rose a little again, and stepped on the stone of the right talent.
He leaned flat against the rock wall, his center of gravity forward, so as not to fall backwards unbalancedly.
Shen Shifang's sharp eyes saw a rock nest recessed next to it, but this point was on the upper left, and above the upper left was a platform that accommodated a person's position.
In this way, he needs to jump over and grab the spot, and then go up to that platform, and if he can't catch it, he will miss and fall.
The height of this zhang is not high, and you won't be seriously injured if you fall, but you can't go out of the division!
So, Shen Shifang stepped hard and jumped over there.
Fortunately, Shen Shifang caught it. He hung in the air, looked left and right, and found the platform he had seen earlier.
With a sudden force, he landed smoothly on the platform.
Shen Shifang breathed a sigh of relief and continued to climb up.
After half a pillar of incense, he had already reached a place about ten zhang high from Xiao Yang and the others.
Then, he opened the condensation jade and took out a bundle of ropes two fingers thick, as well as a three-pointed hook. These things were all prepared by Xue Feixian last night.
In addition, there are some dry food, water, medicines, spirits, etc., everything is available, enough for three people to use for a few days.
After taking out the rope, without saying a word or resting for a while, he directly found a tree halfway up the mountain, tied the other end of the rope firmly, and tied a small stone to the other end.
After everything was ready, Shen Shifang poked his head and saw Lian Kongling and the two of them looking up in their previous positions.
He slowly lowered the two ropes down, the weight of the stone so that the rope would not bend and be hindered.
When Lian Kongling and the others saw the rope coming down, they glanced at each other, and Xiao Yang took the lead to go up.
Shen Shifang also pulled on it to prevent Xiao Yang from missing or losing his physical strength.
In this way, it took them half an hour to get to the tenth of it.
Shen Shifang was rushing up the mountain on this side, but the other side had already been deployed.
Xuan Yi and Gongsun Jie, the leader of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, were lying dormant five miles away from the rebel Xiao Cavalry Camp at this moment, and behind them were a Xiao Cavalry Battalion and a Pioneer Battalion, with a number of 15,000.
"General Gongsun, this battle depends on your iron cavalry. Xuan Yi said: "You rush them first to prevent them from forming a formation." After a successful blow, quickly go out of the west gate, and enter again at the south gate, effectively giving full play to the rapid momentum of the charge. After two rounds of this, my vanguard battalion will surround and attack them. ”
Gongsun Jie was holding a long knife, a gilded helmet on top of his head, and an iron armor on his body, which made people feel a sense of murder.
He said angrily in the urn: "Xuan Yi."
General, please rest assured, wait for me to kill him back and forth, so that he will not be able to find his way back to Xique City. ”
Xuan Yi nodded solemnly and said, "Then let the two of me do miraculous feats." ”
Gongsun Jie laughed, raised the long knife in his hand, pointed forward, and shouted: "Xiao Cavalry Battalion!
With that, he had already harnessed his war horse and rushed forward first.
How could there be a battalion of this cavalry of the rebels? I think that Su Mu Gaozhuo asked Su Mu Honghuan to arrange it that day, but the latter only released 3,000 cavalry.
He thought to himself that it was just a surprise soldier, used for surprise, and put too many targets that were too big and easy to expose.
Therefore, the cavalry, which was less than half a battalion, was led by the deputy commander of the rebel cavalry battalion, and was accompanied by a lieutenant lieutenant.
At this time, they were about to enjoy lunch, and they didn't even have their bowls leveled, when they heard the urgent report of the sentinel, and heard the sound of hurried horses' hooves outside the camp, and the sound was like thunder, rolling endlessly.
This leader's name is Hong Guang, he pondered for a while, thinking that no one should come to Xique City, so who could it be?
was struggling, and his lieutenant said anxiously: "General, it's not the soldiers and horses of Xique City, it's the enemy army!"
Hong Guang was suddenly shocked, and hurriedly put on his armor and gathered his soldiers and horses.
The lieutenant general was annoyed, this deputy commander's brain was really not bright! If he continued like this, he was afraid that his own life would be harmed.
But frustration is frustration, and there is no other way at this time, so I have to face it head-on.
It's a pity that before they could gather a good number of people, Gongsun Jie had already been killed.
"Kill!"
Gongsun Jie roared, and the long knife turned around in his hand, staring at the soldiers guarding the gate of the camp.
"Poof!" blood rose and heads fell.
The soldiers of the Xiaocai Battalion of the Western Army did not drag mud and water, and followed Gongsun Jie to kill.
Everywhere he went, there was a wailing of all the wilderness.
When they rushed to the middle of the camp, they saw a group of soldiers who were ready to go on foot, and the leader was Hong Guang.
That's right, their cavalry battalion didn't have time to get on their horses, so they had to fight the enemy cavalry on foot.
As a result, casualties will certainly increase significantly.
I saw Gongsun Jie menacing, slashing left and right, and none of them could resist.
Seeing this, Hong Guang held a saber horizontally, intending to cut off the knees of the horse under Gongsun Jie's crotch.
But it backfired, and Gongsun Jie seemed to know his intentions, and took the lead in using a long knife to pry himself.
Hong Guang had no choice but to give up, and the true qi on his body was transported, and the saber and the long knife collided together.
After a crisp sound, a hole was missing from Hong Guang's war saber, and he himself almost let go of his hand, only to see that the tiger's mouth was bleeding, obviously cracked.
Looking at the departing figure of Gongsun Jie, Hong Guang was afraid in his heart, and his hands kept trembling.
"With all his strength, this person can actually break through himself lightly, so powerful!" Hong Guang muttered to himself.
He also thought to himself that the strength of this general was probably above him, or even much higher, and he could pull himself apart.
Is that!
Gongsun Jie's cultivation is the fifth level of the spirit, and he is the main general of the Xiaoqi battalion.
And what about Hong Guang?
He is just a mid-spirit duo, and his position is also deputy, so he can't compare at all.
Hong Guang came back to his senses and saw that these enemies were not in love with fighting, but only killed for a round, as if fleeing for their lives, and fled in another direction.
But in such a short period of time, his own men and horses have lost one-fifth, and their hearts are dripping blood.
"Come, follow the general on his horse and go after the enemy. Hong Guang shouted.
This is the only way he can do it now.
At this time, the adjutant general ......
