Three Kingdoms Eschatology

Chapter 448 Mobilizing the Overall Situation

In Fulou Shacheng Royal Palace, Guishuang Wang Bodiao was frowning.During these two months, Liang Jun went deep into the hinterland of Nanguishuang along the Indus River, and the news of attacking the city and pulling out the village came one after another.

When Liang Jun just landed at the mouth of the Indus River, Bo Tiao sent a courier to send an urgent message to Hao Miluo, who was in charge of the Xingguan defense line.Ask him to quickly mobilize troops to return to the division for support.Unexpectedly, Hao Miluo wrote back and said that the Liang soldiers who landed at the Indus River must be a small brigade. The purpose may be to mobilize the main force of Guishuang to go south and reduce the difficulty of the main force of the Liang army to break through Xingguan.The reply also stated that they can be driven out only by mobilizing and gathering the local defenders in the cities of Guishuang.

According to Hao Miluo's words, Bodiao only relied on the local defenders in the cities along the Indus River to organize the defense, but this did not stop Liang Jun's pace.

The Guishuang Army once built a pontoon bridge and several river-blocking iron cables on the Indus River, hoping to cut off the waterway transportation of the Liang Army.However, Zhang Ren did not let the Viking fleet go upstream as usual, but dispatched all the cavalry in his hand to detour to the upstream of the pontoon defense line, and then let the fleet appear in the sight of the Guishuang soldiers. When the army was concentrating on preparing to defend against the Viking fleet attacking from the waterway.Nearly a thousand Qingqi and heavy cavalry of Liang Jun suddenly appeared behind them, and defeated the nearly [-] Guishuang defenders with lightning speed.

After Zhang Ren won this battle, he approached the upper reaches of the Indus River with such force that nothing seemed to stop him.Guishuang Wang Bodiao had no choice but to mobilize defenders from all over the southern border of Guishuang to gather in Fulousha to ensure the safety of the king's capital.At one point, Fulusha assembled more than [-] troops.

But Zhang Ren suddenly stopped in a small town by the Indus River, and then swept towards the Indus River Plain with some steps.The front of the soldiers reached the edge of the Thar Desert.During this period, there were countless Guishuang cities that were leveled.Botiao had no choice but to passively dispatch [-] troops, of which [-] war cavalry were responsible for searching for the cavalry force that Zhang Ren had swept up the Indian plains, and [-] troops attacked the small town where Zhang Ren was stationed.

At this time, Bo Tiao, who was sitting blankly, prayed in his heart that God would bring him good news.A high-pitched voice came from the palace hall, Bo Tiao was already familiar with it, and it must be some urgent report about Liang Jun.

Sure enough, the royal palace sent a messenger to report: "His Majesty the Holy Emperor Guishuang, a Liang army broke through the Black Stone Fort eighty miles east of Fulousha City. His Royal Highness Duke Prawang fought hard and died!"

Bo Tiao jumped up from the throne in shock, not because of the Duke Prawang who died in battle, but because he was terrified that Liang Jun was so close.He asked eagerly, "What? Liang Jun is only eighty miles away from Fulusha?"

"Your Majesty, this is the situation when the news was sent out. Now the forward of Liang Jun may have arrived outside Fulousha City!"

Bodiao paced back and forth in the hall, and suddenly he stood still, as if he had made up his mind, and said, "When the Liang army first landed at the mouth of the Indus River, I asked Hao Miluo to send troops back to help. Although the Hindu Kush Pass is important, the It is an easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack place where one man guards the gate and ten thousand men cannot open it. In the past few years, a few thousand garrisons could keep the White Huns out. Now do we really need tens of thousands of troops stationed there to guard against the Liang army? Liang Jun is away from the royal city It is close at hand, and the Hindu Kush Pass is not far from Fulusha. He has no reason not to send troops back to the defense. Quickly pass on my order, ordering Hao Miluo to lead the main force of the northern line back to defend Fulusha, Hindu Kush It is enough to leave more than [-] elite soldiers to guard the defense line at the mountain pass. If you do not obey the order, you will be punished as a rebel!"

……

More than three hundred miles north of Fulousha, at the pass of the Hindu Kush Mountain, in the camp of the Guishuang Army.Hao Miluo is receiving an order from the imperial envoy from the royal city. The tone of the order is very strict, ordering him to immediately lead the main force to encircle and suppress the Liang soldiers who fled into the hinterland of Guishuang.

Hao Miluo took the order, sighed heavily, and said to the imperial envoy: "The final general will obey His Majesty's order and immediately lead the troops back to defense." In fact, in this situation, even if Bo Tiao did not strictly order Hao Miluo Returning to the defense, Hao Miluo also had to divide his troops back to help Fulusha.Otherwise, if the Liang army were to break through Fulusha, it would be meaningless to stick to the Hindu Kush Pass defense line.

Hao Miluo selected the most capable and outstanding generals from his generals to stay at the Hindu Kush Pass, and the remaining ten thousand precious frost infantry were also selected elite soldiers.He exhorted and exhorted the surviving generals, and finally said: "You must hold this line of defense before I return to the army, otherwise I will be in danger. Remember, you are only allowed to defend, and you are not allowed under any circumstances. Take the initiative to attack Liang Jun in Guanbei."

These generals all confidently patted Hao Miluo's chest and said: "General, don't worry, we will defend this line of defense like a copper wall and iron wall. If there is any mistake, I will come and see you!"

Then Hao Miluo marched southward with tens of thousands of cavalry assembled to encircle and suppress Zhang Liao's army.

……

To the west of the Indus Valley is the vast Thar Desert, and three hundred miles to the east, near the Parthian Plateau, are two towering mountain ranges—the Suleiman Range and the Gilbert Range.These two mountain ranges separate the Poison Subcontinent from the main body of the Asiatic continent.The intersection of the two mountain ranges forms a semi-basin plain located in a huge mountain depression. Although it is a plain, small hills formed by the remaining veins of the two mountain ranges can be seen everywhere.

Although it still belongs to Guishuang, it is because of its remote location.The Guishuang government actually has zero jurisdiction over this place.A circular city is located in the center of the land.There are all kinds of facilities in the city.In the middle is a stone-roofed hall supported by several huge columns.

At this time, a general stood on the steps outside the hall, watching the soldiers' drills in the square outside the hall.This person was Seguliu, the mercenary leader who was captured by Feng Yu and hired for a long time.

A commanding soldier ran up the steps and said to Seguliu: "General, a group of people came twenty miles in front of the east gate, but were stopped by our patrolling sentries. After interrogation, they said that they were from Liang Jun, and they came here specially. Looking for the general."

Seguli laughed and said, "That's our employer. But it's strange, didn't they just send out two years of gold coins a few months ago? Why did they come again so soon? Could it be that something needs us to dispatch .Invite them in quickly and see what they are up to."

After receiving Liang Jun's messenger, Seguli secretly praised himself for guessing correctly.Feng Yu asked them to cooperate with Liang Jun on the front line of Hindu Kush to break through the Hindu Kush mountain pass.

Segouliu didn't have much doubts, so he mobilized about 3000 mercenary soldiers and horses on the same day, left this huge mountain depression, and marched northeastward along the eastern foot of the Suleiman Mountains.At the northeastern end of the Suleiman Range lies the Hindu Kush.

Chapter 449 No time to explain

A large group of soldiers and horses surrounded the small town, and they soon found that it was an empty city. There were no soldiers in the city, only some civilians with indifferent expressions.Hao Miluo was also among the team entering the city. Seeing this scene, he hurriedly rode his horse to a tower on the city wall, and rushed to the top of the tower in a few steps.

In the distance, in the bend of the Indus River, the heavy sails of the Viking ship could be vaguely seen. The lieutenant general following Hao Miluo scolded: "Liang Jun slipped faster than a rabbit, and we missed the air again. General, go on!" What shall we do next?"

Hao Miluo remained silent, meditating secretly.After Hao Miluo led his army to the south, the Liang army avoided fighting.But they didn't retreat directly to the mouth of the river, but once the Guishuang army stopped, they stopped, and when the Guishuang army moved, they acted.This kind of tactic sounds easy, but in fact, it is impossible to do it without powerful scout detection capabilities.

However, the scouts of Zhang Ren's army were very elite, and the Indus River plain was endless, and the woodland and hills were scarce, which made it very convenient for the scouts to observe the enemy's situation, so the Guishuang army repeatedly missed.

Hao Miluo, who was silent for a long time, finally said: "It seems that we have to use a dangerous move...".

When Hao Miluo's brigade spotted Zhang Ren's army again, they stopped and confronted Zhang Ren's camp from afar.At the same time, a huge cavalry unit following Hamilo's main force turned around and made a roundabout move towards the lower reaches of the Indus River.Due to the long distance, unless Liang Jun still had scouts behind Hao Miluo's rear, it would be impossible to detect the actions of this huge cavalry unit.

Hao Miluo kept praying in his heart that Zhang Ren would not leave early, otherwise his thoughts would be in vain.What he didn't know was that at this time the generals in Zhang Ren's camp were also arguing about the next move.

Most of the generals believe that the current task has been completed, and they will continue to stay in the hinterland of Guishuang as a lone army.They should return to the mouth of the Indus River as soon as possible to join Lin Tao's fleet.

However, some generals believed that completely withdrawing from Guishuang's hinterland at this time and disengaging from Hao Miluo's army might arouse Hao Miluo's suspicion, and asked him to return to the army immediately and conquer the Liang army in Xingguan. You can return to Xingguan before the Hindu Kush Pass.

In the end, Zhang Ren decided to continue to delay Hao Miluo's army for a while.He believes that the success or failure of his own army is much less important than the overall situation of success or failure.

Just when Hao Miluo and Zhang Ren were confronting each other on the west bank of the Indus River, the Guishuang cavalry with more than [-] riders had quietly arrived at the bank of the Indus River downstream of Zhang Ren's army.The iron chains that blocked the river that had been prepared before departure were placed across the Indus River, and cavalry archers and well-armed assault heavy cavalry were deployed on both banks.

Hao Miluo was overjoyed when he heard that his army had arrived at the appointed place as scheduled.He immediately ordered the whole army to launch a general attack on Zhang Ren's camp.

Still the same as before, Hao Miluo's men had just moved.Zhang Ren already knew it, and it was still the usual countermeasure. The infantry boarded the boat, the cavalry mounted the horse, and continued to retreat downstream in parallel by water and land.Looking at their backs, Hao Miluo couldn't help showing a sneer, and thought to himself: "It seems that you will all die in this Indus River and become sacrifices to Lord Shiva!"

……

A turbid stream of water flows across the land full of ridges.Those fields have long been barren, turning the land into wilderness again.A sail still flashed on the water at the bend of the river, and then another one, two...At the same time, a few fast horses passed by the wormwood on the river bank, startling a few birds.

Falcons were still squatting on the horse rider's shoulders, and they ignored the birds soaring into the sky.These people were naturally Liang Jun's scouts, conducting routine security patrols in front of the army.

Two hours later, they suddenly stopped their horses by coincidence.On the distant skyline, tent banners were already faintly visible, and they were obviously not Liang Jun's own people.

"Hurry up, go back and report this enemy situation to the general... ah!" Before the leader of the scout could finish speaking, he let out a scream.A bunch of dozens of arrows shot at them densely, and one of them pierced the scout leader's ear.At the same time, dozens of war cavalry rushed out of the nearby woods, and those were obviously patrolling cavalry of the Guishuang Army.

"Withdraw! Quickly withdraw!" The leader of the scouts roared, the horses of the crowd had already turned their heads, and at this time the whips kept falling on the horse's buttocks.The number of cavalry fled to the way they came like an arrow leaving the string.The Guishuang Rangers chased for a while, but failed to catch up, but they found the shadow of the Viking sails in the Indus River, and then they also rode their horses to their camp to report the situation to their generals.

When Zhang Ren learned of this, he suddenly realized why Hao Miluo had stayed for many days without taking any action.At this time, Zhang Ren's army was intercepted in front and pursued behind, and suddenly fell into the predicament of being pinched from front to back.

Zhang Ren hurriedly asked his soldiers to spread out the map, and lay down on the ground to watch carefully, all the generals poked their heads out, discussing in one go.Some said they wanted to abandon the ship and landed to avoid the interception of the Guishuang army, and some said they wanted to fight hard and break through the blockade of the Guishuang army.But in Zhang Ren's view, neither of these two options is feasible.

According to common sense, the only cavalry units that can implement this kind of roundabout outflank.Therefore, it is impossible for the infantry to abandon the ship and land, mix with the cavalry and flee on land. It is impossible to outrun the enemy's horses.

If it is a hard charge, it is conservatively estimated that there are more than 3000 to [-] Guishuang cavalry intercepting him, and his own cavalry on the shore is less than [-].No matter how elite Liang Jun's cavalry is, with such a huge disparity in strength, it is difficult to guarantee undefeated after the battle.What's more, the Guishuang cavalry is not vegetarian. They also have cavalry archers who are good at shooting bows on horseback, and heavy cavalry with horses and horses.Once the cavalry on the shore were destroyed, the infantry in the water would also be stopped by the iron chains blocking the river, becoming a turtle in the urn, and finally the entire army was wiped out.

Beads of sweat rolled down Zhang Ren's forehead. He had to think of a way to get rid of the enemy's siege and interception in time, otherwise he and his regiment were in danger of being wiped out.

A thought flashed through Zhang Ren's mind, and he repeated the deduction several times. Although he was not very sure, he could only treat a dead horse as a living horse doctor.Zhang Ren immediately ordered: "Pass on our military order to immediately build a pontoon bridge in this section of the river!"

The generals around him were taken aback. Their chief general had been thinking for a long time, but he wanted to do such a meaningless thing?

A general reminded with a doubtful tone: "General, the pursuers can arrive in about half a day. If the enemy soldiers intercepted in front take the initiative to attack, they can also arrive in more than an hour. Why do we spend time building it now?" A floating bridge? We don't need to cross the river now, even if we do, we have boats."

"I don't have time to explain it to you. This is a military order. If you are asked to build a pontoon bridge, you will build it!"

Chapter 450

Zhang Ren's Liang Jun had a boat in his hand, so the pontoon bridge was built very quickly.More than [-] Viking ships were parked across the river, and the thick wooden scull shields carried by the army formed a wide pontoon bridge, on which not only infantry could pass, but also horses could gallop across.

At this time, Zhang Ren had clearly explained his plan to his subordinates.Use the river course of the Indus River to divide the Guishuang war cavalry in front.

If the opponent divides his troops into two equal groups, they will attack along the river banks on both sides at the same time.Zhang Ren concentrated his forces to defeat one of them first, and then directly advanced by land and water, and went down the river.Use war cavalry to attack and kill the Guishuang soldiers guarding one end of the iron chain blocking the river, and open the waterway.In this case, the pontoon bridge that Zhang Ren wanted to build was useless and would be dismantled by the soldiers guarding the bridge immediately.

But if the Guishuang soldiers just go straight in, or put the main force on one side, and only deploy a small amount of troops on the other side of the river, they will attack Zhang Ren's army along the river.That Zhang Ren let his war cavalry avoid the side with the main force of the enemy, and all passed the floating bridge to the other side.

The premise that this method is feasible is that the downstream Guishuang warriors do not have pontoon bridges or other methods that can easily pass through the Indus River.Zhang Ren is very sure about this, because the opponents are all cavalry, and they are attacking long distances.Then they would at most set up iron chains to block the river, and it was unlikely that they would be able to build a pontoon bridge on the river to allow the cavalry to pass quickly.

Now Zhang Ren's only concern is whether the scouts can obtain accurate information on the deployment of the enemy's troops, which is crucial in his plan.When Liang Jun built the pontoon bridge, he stared at the distance without blinking, hoping that his scouts would bring him reliable news as soon as possible.

Fortunately, when the pontoon bridge had just been built, the figures of several riders on the distant skyline appeared in Zhang Ren's sight, and the scouts he had sent earlier returned.

"General Qi, we have found out that the Guishuang Army really did as the general expected. They pulled up iron chains to block the river, but did not build a pontoon bridge. The opponent's strength is about [-] cavalry, and the army on the left bank There are more than a thousand riders, and three thousand riders on the right bank are coming towards my camp, and they each have five hundred riders stationed at both ends of the iron chain blocking the river."

Zhang Ren immediately issued an order: "The whole army is mobilized! Follow the plan!" The generals around him knew what he meant because they had made arrangements before, and immediately followed suit.

Later, the cavalry of Liang Jun, who were mainly concentrated on the right bank, rolled over the pontoon bridge and gathered on the left bank.Then, they marched down with the Viking fleet in the river.But they deliberately made an arc circle to the outside, so that they fell behind the Viking fleet.

Half an hour later, the Viking fleet on the river encountered the Guishuang Army cavalry on both sides of the river.The Guishuang war cavalry immediately spread out along the water on both banks, shooting towards the river with bows and crossbows non-stop. The arrows fell on the river like a shower, splashing countless ripples and waves.The side of the Viking ship and the shield on it were also crackled by the arrows, as if they were experiencing a hailstorm.

On board, except for some sailors and soldiers in heavy armor who insisted on steering the ship, the rest of the soldiers of the Liang Army were lying on the side of the ship and behind the shields, not daring to move.There were also some Liang soldiers who had no place to hide, and erected the large shields used by the spear and shield soldiers back to back.

Although these Viking ships encountered intensive shooting, they still headed downstream tenaciously.The general of Guishuang sneered and ordered: "Fire the rocket and burn it! These stupid pigs thought they could escape, but they didn't know that they are now the fish and shrimp in the pot. Even if they can't be eliminated by us immediately, they will be cooked slowly." Already!"

Arrows with flames rushed towards the Viking ship like fire meteors.Although Zhang Renjun had already prepared, the canvas had been soaked with water on purpose, and the ship's side on the lower deck was also wet.However, the continuous rain of fire caused Liang Jun soldiers to continue to be in trouble.From time to time, some people's eyebrows and beards were burned, and some people's skirts were set ablaze, causing chaos on board.

In this chaos, there were screams from time to time. It was because some soldiers of the Liang Army showed their openings in a panic, and Liu Ya took advantage of them and shot them in the body.

The left bank is the same as the right bank. More than a thousand Guishuang warriors rode horses along the river bank to accompany the Liang army fleet, and kept shooting with arrows.One of the small colonels bent his bow and set an arrow, aiming at a general of the Liang army on a Viking warship. There was a soldier of the Liang army protecting the general with a large shield, but because the soldier's trousers were dropped on the deck The rocket ignited, busy to extinguish the flames on the trouser legs, revealed a flaw, and exposed the general to the sight of the Guishuang small school.

With a pop, the arrow of Guishuang Xiaoxiao hit the river six feet away, splashing a huge splash.The little principal's bow also fell to the ground, and then the man slipped from the saddle. A sharp arrow stuck in the back of his head, pierced his leather helmet and shot into his brainstem.

He was not the only one who was hit by the arrow. Hundreds of arrows came from behind Guishuang Warrior Cavalry on the left bank, and a large area fell down in an instant, and people shouted and hissed at the scene.

Guishuang soldiers screamed one after another: "The enemy is coming from behind! ... The enemy still has backup!".They screamed and turned their horses around to prepare to meet the enemy. During this period, arrows in the air kept coming, and the sound of arrows piercing the air was endless.

Liang Jun's Qingqi Feiyu was twenty battles away from the enemy soldiers. After releasing the last round of arrows, he put away his tools, drew out his sharp saber, and dodged to both sides at the same time.

Behind Qingqi Feiyu was a row of heavy cavalry. These heavy cavalry did not stab them with lances as they usually do in combat.Instead, they picked up the mace directly, and the distance between their war cavalry and war cavalry was widened, more than a distance away.The war cavalry rooms are connected by iron chains.Obviously they want to kill the enemy with one blow.

When these Guishuang warriors just raised their scimitars, with the sound of bangs, Guishuang's warriors were knocked away from their horses by maces one after another.Then the remaining Guishuang cavalry were brought down in pieces by iron chains, and then trampled by Liang Jun's huge war horse.

In the first round of Liang Jun's attack, the Guishuang War Cavalry on the left bank was almost wiped out, and then the Qingqi Feiyu gathered again and killed the remaining Guishuang remnants.

The battle ended in almost a quarter of an hour, and the scene was horrible, with shattered corpses everywhere on the ground.On the other side of the river, the main force of the Guishuang cavalry saw these clearly, but they sighed across the river and couldn't help.They could only shoot random arrows across the river to make a show.But separated by nearly a hundred battles across the river, these arrows had almost no effect.

The Liang Army Viking ships on the river also approached the left bank, and continued to march down with full sail.The Guishuang cavalry on the right bank also continued to follow Zunshe, but because the target was farther away, the effect was minimal.

Chapter 451 Infiltrating from the South Foot

In the Guishuang Army, the leading general suddenly realized at this moment that he had understood Liang Jun's plan.He hurriedly shouted: "Quick, find a way to cross the river!"

But it is not easy to cross the river in a hurry for thousands of warriors. The thousand warriors on the left bank also used a few fishing boats they found with great difficulty, and it took several days and nights to cross all of them.

At this time, a deputy general reminded: "Our scouts reported that Liang Jun's soldiers and horses are all on the west bank, but now they are all on the east bank. There must be a place not far upstream that can cross the river. Maybe they built a bridge there. All the pontoons!"

General Guishuang felt reasonable after hearing this. Anyway, it is impossible to stop the soldiers of Liang Jun now, so it is better to try his luck.He immediately turned around with his soldiers and horses, and searched upstream.Sure enough, a moment later, a pontoon bridge appeared in his vision.Without even thinking about it, he hurriedly led the soldiers onto the pontoon bridge.

With a muffled sound, the pontoon bridge suddenly burst into flames.In an instant, many Guishuang soldiers who rushed up the pontoon bridge were engulfed in the sea of ​​flames, and the entire pontoon bridge became a bridge of fire.The cabin of the pontoon bridge was already filled with fire starters, and Zhang Ren's soldiers used all the remaining explosive bombs here.

On the burning bridge, countless fire men jumped into the river, howling and calling for help reverberated over the Indus River.The chief general of the Guishuang Army also disappeared without a trace, and it is unknown whether he is dead or alive.The surviving Guishuang soldiers on the right bank lost their generals and were at a loss for a while, before they finally headed downstream dejectedly under the organization of a mid-level general.

At the lower reaches of the Iron Chain Hengjiang River, there are scattered corpses of Guishuang soldiers all over the ground.Liang Jun's iron cavalry defeated the Guishuang army guarding the iron chain posts on the east bank with little effort, and at the same time pulled out all the posts that fixed the iron chains.The Viking fleet in the river passed smoothly.There are still a small number of Guishuang warriors on the other side, so they can only ride their horses on the bank and look at the water.

Four hours later, the main force led by Hao Miluo finally arrived here without stopping. Seeing this situation, they were so angry that they beat their feet and stomped their chests.The leader of the Guishuang cavalry who was in charge of intercepting was captured on the spot and executed with military law.This Guishuang general died a bit unjustly.

Hao Miluo still didn't give up, and continued to urge the army to chase after him.But after that, Zhang Ren didn't stop any longer, and the men, horses and boats fled towards the mouth of the Indus River without stopping...

……

At the southern foot of the Hindu Kush Mountain, a head popped out of a dense forest.He looked around vigilantly, and then muttered something in a low voice.Then four or five heads popped out from the wormwood bushes. They bowed their bodies and walked towards a dirt road trampled by pedestrians.Most of these people have oriental faces, so they are naturally Zhang Liao's mountain scouts.Under the order of the coach Zhang Liao, continue to search and monitor the enemy's situation on the south side of the Hindu Kush Mountain, relying on the mountains and forests.

They traveled a few miles further south in the middle of nowhere.One of the scouts suddenly fell to the ground for some reason, and was dragged away into the grass and forest by a force.In the sparse forest, the treetops began to shake violently, and there were bursts of hoofbeats.The rest of the people immediately understood that the scout was thrown to the ground with a noose and dragged into the forest.

"There are enemies... Prepare...", the leader of the scouts was about to shout, when several people were dragged down in the same way. one person.The remaining two Liang Jun mountain scouts had no choice but to obediently raise their hands and surrender

Several captured Liang Jun scouts were escorted for five or six miles, and they saw a large-scale camp.They were escorted into a large tent, and the person sitting upright in the tent looked up at their faces and said, "You should be Liang Jun's scouts..."

On the north side of the Hindu Kush Pass, in the large tent of the Liang Army camp.Zhang Liao wrote the book of war calmly. He seemed calm on the surface, but in fact he was also very anxious.Whether the friendly army that invaded the hinterland of Guishuang from the Indus River mouth can successfully lure the main force of Guishuang at Xingguan, and whether the mercenaries who have been lurking in Guishuang for many years, can receive the letter and come to cooperate with them in attacking Xingguan as promised, all depend on it. It is an unknown number.If there is a mistake in this series of links, the whole plan will be abolished.

After a while, his personal soldiers entered the account and reported that a team of mountain scouts operating in Guannan had returned and brought a Hu Yi.This person claimed to be Liang Jun's friendly army, and got Liang Wang Feng Yu's order to get in touch with the main general of Liang Guoxi's expedition.Zhang Liao slapped his thigh and said, "They are the ones who have been waiting, and finally they are here."

These mountain scouts ran into Seguliu's troops. They were walking along the southern foot of the mountain range, trying to find a way to get people across the Hindu Kush Mountains to get in touch with Zhang Liao, but they ran into Liang Junpai Scouts to Shannan.

Zhang Liao chatted with the visitors, and then made a plan to break through the Hindu Kush Mountain.Those mountain scouts escorted people to Shannan again in the future, informed Seguliu, told him the exact plan, and coordinated with Liang Jun.

At dawn two days later, it was a rare sunny day in the Hindu Kush Mountains in this season.At Xingguan Pass, those Guishuang defenders were surprised to find that Liang Jun, who had not acted for a long time, assembled an army formation again, and it seemed that they were going to launch a new round of attack on the pass.

Prior to this, Liang Jun's mountain scouts led Seguliu's mercenaries and started to move towards the cliffs on both sides of the ramp in front of the pass.There was only one way for them to get there, and it had to be climbed from the southern foothills of the Hindu Kush.If not, Zhang Liao would send troops to solve these problems without waiting for Seguliu's mercenaries.

They need to get into the caves excavated on the cliffs to solve the biggest hidden danger of the Liang army - the rolling wood and rocks rolling down from the cliff slopes on both sides, and the giant crossbows used to defend the Liang army's airships and flying eagles.At the same time, they also want to dig out the eyes of the Guishuang army, those towers built on the cliff slopes, connected by stone and wood structures and those grottoes.

Liang Jun's ballista began to bombard, and Liang Jun's infantry also divided into small groups and rushed up the ramp.The hair stone bullets drew parabolas in the air, hit the wall and landed in the camp.Rows of Liang Army gun and shield soldiers covered each other on the ramp and advanced up the ramp one by one.Behind them were sporadic longbowmen, raising their bodies from time to time and shooting a few heavy arrows towards the wall.

There are still longbowmen in the basket of the airship shooting beacons to provide beacons for the hawks hovering in the sky, allowing them to throw clay pots filled with naphtha one after another.

All this seems to be no different from Zhang Liao's previous tentative attack.However, all this is doing is to attract the attention of the Guishuang soldiers and provide cover for the friendly troops who are sneaking into the cliffs on both sides from the southern foothills...

Chapter 452

On the battlefield of the Hindu Kush Pass, the sky was shaken by shouts of killing, flames rose, and gravel and sawdust flew everywhere.Every Guishuang defender was fully focused on guarding Liang Jun who was attacking from the ramp.

But they were not nervous, because Liang Jun's attack method and strength were the same as before, and the psychological shock to them when Liang Jun's airship first appeared had long since passed.

On the contrary, the Guishuang defenders in the caves and stone pagodas on the cliffs on both sides of the ramp felt rather disappointed, because Liang Jun did not dispatch a large number of troops to attack the pass, otherwise they could use rolling wood and stones to kill Liang Jun in large numbers to obtain great military achievements.

On the cliff on the east side, there is a plank road dug out of the rocky cliff, about three feet wide.It is connected with a stone platform naturally formed on the hillside to form a passage of more than a hundred battles.The southern end of the channel connects to the rear of Xingguan Pass - the southern foot of Hindu Kush Mountain.At the northern end, it is divided into several passages, leading to various Guishuang strongholds distributed on the cliff slopes in the east.

At this time, more than a dozen Guishuang soldiers poked their heads out from the plank road, looking at the battlefield below and watching the excitement.They were part of a patrol that stood guard on the passage.

One of them said: "These stupid orientals are here to die again. With such an offensive attack, you don't just send as many heads as you come." The other said with a sneer: "They are not like this, and they die more. We wish we could They swarm up, so that the wood and stones we prepare on the hillside will grind them to a pulp."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a scream beside him.At first he thought it was coming from the battlefield below, but the sound was so close.Then he saw a Guishuang soldier beside him fell on his back, with an arrow shot in his face.

"There are enemies..." As soon as he yelled, he felt as if he had been hit by someone, and his chest hurt. When he looked down, he was also hit by an arrow on his breastplate, so the arrow did not penetrate the armor.The rest of his teammates also fell to the ground almost at the same time.
