Woooooooo On the top of the cliff, a melodious and strange horn sounded, and the sound rushed up from a height of more than ten zhang, breaking through the tranquility of Wulu Mountain in the night, echoing in the mountains.
Under the cliff, Liaodong Warrior Liang Mao's face couldn't help but change greatly when he heard the voice, and he shouted in a lost voice: "It's not good, I've been fooled, withdraw quickly" Bang la blah Bags of fire oil fell from the sky, splashing everywhere on the vines, some down the vines, and some directly on the top of the Liaodong Army soldiers. yes When a Liaodong soldier climbed the mountain, he grabbed the fire oil in one hand, slipped his hand, and then stepped on the air with another foot, his body instantly lost his balance, and the other hand was unable to let go, and he fell from a height of more than ten meters like a stone with a scream.
The next moment, the fire on the top of the cliff was bright, and the flames quickly spread in all directions, and then sneered down with the fire oil, and the entire cliff top instantly turned into a sea of fire, burning so that the half-withered vines crackled.
"Retreat, get out," someone hissed.
However, it was too late, in the sea of fire, the dense vines were burned one after another, and countless Liaodong troops grabbed the broken vines and fell off the cliff with a scream, and the Taiping army on the top of the cliff still felt that the fire was not burning fast enough, and they pulled out their waist knives one after another, and cut at the vines under their feet, and the vines that had not yet been burned fell from the top of the cliff with raging flames, driving a miserable cry.
Even those vines that had not yet broken, the Liaodong army above was in a hurry to slide down, either stumbling and falling off the cliff, or sliding too hard and stepping on the heads of the comrades behind. trampled the Liaodong Army under his feet and fell.
The same scene was playing out on another cliff hundreds of meters away.
In the midst of the fire, screams rang out loud.
The originally silent valley instantly boiled into the sky.
Zhang He looked at everything under the cliff coldly, and saw that the tongues of fire in the vine area of dozens of meters were connected together, and frantically rushed towards the bottom of the cliff, and there was no one intact vine to climb around, so he shouted in a deep voice: "Withdraw" Under the Lu Pass, thousands of elites of the Liaodong Army stood solemnly, and among them, there were several cloud ladders.
A siege stance.
According to the plan, once the two teams of elite soldiers of the Liaodong Army who attacked by surprise climbed the cliff, went down the vine from the left peak of Luguan, and attacked Guanlou, they pushed the siege ladder and launched a fierce attack on Luguan Guanlou at the same time as their comrades who attacked it.
Before the army, Gongsun Du stared blankly at the fire on the cliff in the distance, and muttered: "A mere captain is so wonderful in using soldiers.
Gongsun Zhan's son is really powerful, if Kang'er can do the same, why worry about me" A tun chief ran to Gongsun Du's side and asked respectfully, "General."
Do you want to take this opportunity to attack?"
Gongsun Du narrowed his eyes and looked at the Guan Tower by the moonlight.
The upstairs was quiet, surprisingly quiet.
Gongsun Du took a hard breath. shouted: "Withdraw" The trumpets sounded, and thousands of troops retreated.
After closing the battlements of the building.
A military marquis leaned out and looked at the large black shadows that were surging and receding in the moonlight. slapped the battlement fiercely, and shouted angrily: "Damn, I was run away by this old fox of Gongsun Du, and scolded Lao Tzu" Above the Guan Tower, there was immediately a boiling shout and scolding.
"Gongsun Du Xiao'er, run slower, be careful of breaking the dog's leg" "Why don't you dare to attack?"
"Flee, a bunch of waste" Retreating to the gate of the camp of the Liaodong Army, Gongsun Du suddenly turned his horse, looked at the towering Luguan city wall in the night, and scolded coldly: "Lao Tzu doesn't believe that the wall is only ten zhang wide, and it can block my invincible soldiers who swept through Liaodong."
The next day, as soon as the sky was bright, and the valley was covered with frost and dew, Gongsun Du had already risen early, and ordered the guards to come to discuss the matter.
Those generals who had been tossing all night hurriedly put on their clothes and armor, with bloodshot eyes, exhaling white air, and hurried towards the big tent of the Chinese army.
After all the generals arrived and sat down in front of the desks on both sides of the big tent, Gongsun Du said in a deep voice: "Yesterday, during the day, we were suppressed by the enemy's strong crossbows, and hundreds of Yulin troops were damaged, although the enemy's sneak attack overnight was broken by us, our night attack was also broken by the enemy, and the enemy army lost no more than 200 people, while my Liaodong warriors suffered thousands of casualties.
Ben Hou has never suffered such a setback since the battle with the enemy, and it is a great shame, I don't know what you think."
All the generals looked embarrassed and looked at each other silently.
The fierce general Zhang Chang stood up and said excitedly: "Luguan is only a few thousand people, and the wall is not more than ten zhang wide, the general can let the crossbow in the back, the cloud ladder in front, and the last general is willing to personally lead 800 warriors to climb the Luguan City Tower."
Gongsun Du said coldly: "Luguan City is seven or eight feet high, and the ladder can not be reached, even if it can be climbed, the enemy army has the help of a strong crossbow that can shoot two hundred steps, and if the ladder is burned with fire oil, then the eight hundred warriors will just be killed in vain."
Yes, my Liaodong troops are ten times larger than the enemy, and if we attack without considering the losses, we will inevitably not be able to capture them, but although such a battle is victorious, it is especially defeated."
Zhang Chang was silent and sat down.
After a long time, Gongsun Du's eyes suddenly lit up, he stood up slowly, and said slowly: "Although the wall of Luguan is high, it is only dozens of zhang wide.
The eyes of the generals brightened, and the deputy general Liang Mao lost his voice and said: "Pile up soil to tackle key problems" Gongsun Du smiled and nodded slightly.
A military Sima stood up and said excitedly: "Yes, let the soldiers fill the pass day and night, as long as more than ten days can fill out a slope in front of the pass, then the army rushes up, breaking the pass is easy, although the casualties will be greater when filling the pass, but it is better than blocking between the mountain roads." ” Gongsun Du's face changed slightly, and he reprimanded angrily: "Bastard, the lives of my Liaodong warriors are much more valuable than the lives of the enemy, how can I brave the enemy's arrow rain to fill the level, are our trebuchets all decorations?"
Although the military Sima lowered his head, the soldiers in the tent showed a look of admiration, after all, he was worthy of being the prince of Liaodong.
Late at night, the moon is half-bent, and the mountains are silent.
On the upper floor of Luguanguan, it was so quiet that only the night wind could be heard whining in the city.
Hundreds of Taiping soldiers stood proudly on top of the tower, although they were slightly tired, but no one dared to doze off, but they gathered together in groups and chatted quietly, and from time to time there were a few laughs, rippling in the night sky.
Suddenly, someone shouted: "Sixth, you won't find a secluded place to pay tribute, this is too unsightly, be careful that the Liaodong people shoot through your guy with an arrow." ” I saw a Taiping soldier standing on the battlement, urinating in the night wind against the city, and when he heard the man's shout, he laughed: "Don't worry, we are beaten by iron, and we can't shoot through, if the Liaodong people are downstairs, just invite them to drink a pot."
The moonlight was very bright, and this guy unconsciously looked up and couldn't help but open his mouth wide.
He didn't hold his hands anymore, and he urinated on both feet.
Under the moonlight, a large group of black oppressive men and horses were silently approaching Lu Pass.
I saw that I was already a hundred or two hundred paces away.
Hundreds of people in front of them swarmed towards the downstairs.
The sound of broken footsteps gradually became sensational, and I saw the dense Liaodong army rushing to the bottom of the gate, raising a black thing on his shoulder and throwing it at the foot of the gate, and then quickly dispersed to both sides, and the soldiers behind rushed up one after another, and continued to throw black things under the tower.

Close the crossbowman on the wall, and the exposed guy is so cold that he doesn't feel it.
Subconsciously opened his throat and shouted: "There are thieves attacking the city" There was an immediate uproar on the Guan Tower, and the Taiping soldiers quickly rose up, grabbed the bows and crossbows and guns in their hands, and rushed to the mouth of the battlement.
Woooooooo The horn on the tower of the pass sounded loudly, and the melodious and desolate sound pierced the night sky, waking up the sleeping soldiers in the pass, and the whole pass immediately became full of life.
"Shoot the arrows," the tower guard shouted.
Woohoo Countless arrows rained down.
However, at the moment when the horn sounded, the Liaodong army under the city tower had already begun to retreat wildly, and when the crossbow arrows fell, only part of the Liaodong army that was dragging behind was shot.
The next moment, the fire under the city was bright, only to see that the city was piled up with piles of dirt bags by the group of soldiers just now, hundreds of steps away, the dense Liaodong army appeared in front of everyone under the glow of torches, among them, there were behemoths one after another.
"It's a trebuchet," someone exclaimed.
The range of the trebuchet can reach 300 paces, which is even greater than that of the rhubarb.
Before the words fell, only a few loud bangs were heard, and dozens of boulders had come suddenly, drawing huge parabolas in the night sky, smashing viciously on the wall, smashing everyone only to feel a sharp earthquake under their feet, as if they would collapse at any time.
Boom, boom, boom Dozens of boulders are coming from the sky.
After three rounds of stone rain in a row, the Taiping soldiers on the upper floor couldn't help laughing out loud without knowing who was leading them.
In three rounds, all the stones smashed on the wall, and then fell to the ground, and not a single stone approached the battlement, let alone flew up to the tower.
"Bastard, what are you laughing at" With a loud shout, everyone's laughter stopped abruptly.
I saw Zhang He leading a group of personal soldiers to climb the gate tower and strode to the front of the battlement in the middle.
Zhang He held on to the battlements, looking at the continuous stone rain, and instantly understood, he couldn't help frowning, and his face became pale.
He looked at Guan Xia in a daze, thought about it for a long time, and an idea came out of his mind in a hurry, if Gongsun Bai came to inquire about his intelligence at this moment, he would find that its intelligence value had risen by two points at some point, from 74 to 75.
He turned around, and then shouted at the rotating tun chief: "Guard Lao Tzu, as long as you see the Liaodong people approaching Guan Lou, shoot Lao Tzu to death, don't give Lao Zi arrows" "Whoa" After Zhang He finished speaking, he shook the big gun behind him, and then took a group of personal soldiers to leave, leaving the defenders on the city tower stunned and at a loss.
The Liaodong Army is tackling key problems, and the enemy is currently in trouble, so it will be over with one sentence, and General Zhang is really relieved.
To be continued
