Among the continuous mountains, the wind and snow were pouring into the sky, a group of sergeants wearing pale military uniforms and moon-white armor were resting in a sheltered canyon.A large blue and white flag embroidered with hexagonal double snakes was hunting, and the strong wind whizzed past it as if it would be frozen and cracked.

A woman wearing a dark blue night gown stood in the wind and snow, with goose feather snow falling all over her temples, and she stared at the blue and white flag with a little heaviness on her face, "Wu, where are we going this time? Night Raid Mawei Station, we have lost a total of ninety brothers."

"Probably in the Yushan area." Ning Wu sent a piece of firewood to the bonfire, "Shiyun, I know that Xichuan people are not cold-resistant, so you should come to my side. The place where you stand is too cold. It's snowing and it's cold." Originally, as a scholar, Ning Wu should be the person who is most afraid of the cold, but Shi Yun turned around and looked at Ning Wu. He was clearly wearing a white snow-walking army uniform, but he didn't feel that he was cold at all.Moreover, the wisps of light purple smoke from the semi-rusted and stainless broken sword worn by Ning Wu's waist also made her particularly concerned.

After signaling his subordinates to get close to the fire, Ning Wu stood up, and after freeing up some space, he sighed slightly, "It's already sunset in the river." While Shi Yun was still looking at his back in a daze, Ning Wu patted her face. shoulder, motioning to a corner with few people, "I did something unkind to the prince. This attack on the Shenji Battalion will be blamed on the Fengyang Army."

Outside the Sun Moon Cliff, thousands of torches were suddenly lit up in the dark night, one Cang Yue Army Snowy Moon Silver Arrow Banner was raised high, and the other flag was embroidered with a black arrow slanting across a pale crescent moon. Spear Blade - This is the flag of the Black Spear Battalion of the Cang Yue Army.

Su Yanzhou, who was wearing a dark blue battle robe, black plate armor, and a black iron flying eagle helmet, straddled Juechen's horse, raised his black gun, and galloped like a crow, shouting "Throw!" Throw it on the first city wall of Sun Moon Cliff, and then each of them took down a black throwing gun hanging on the saddle, "Shua, Shua, Shua!" The black throwing guns were thrown out in unison, and the sound of piercing the sky was accompanied by the torches burning , ignited the smoke of the entire Sun Moon Cliff offensive and defensive battle!

"Rush!" Some soldiers from the Moon Tough Battalion who were operating with the Black Spear Battalion had already tied ropes on the gate of Sun Moon Cliff, "Pull!" The whips were whipped on dozens of horses, and the horses hissed wildly. The city gate made of mixed iron was pulled open, "Kill!" Su Yanzhou shouted, and rushed into the city first.The sporadic resistance of the Tang army in Sun Moon Cliff was quickly defeated by the iron hooves of the Black Spear Battalion. The black horseshoes rolled up the wind and dust, and went straight to the second city wall of Sun Moon Cliff. "Attack!" The eight soldiers of the Yueren Battalion carried logs and rushed straight to the city gate. "Boom!" The second city gate was broken. "Yu!" The cavalrymen of the Black Spear Battalion raised their left wrist shields. The wrist shields of the Black Spear Battalion are about two feet two long and one foot four wide.When the blue armored cavalry raised their wrists and shields according to the order, Su Yanzhou rode his horse forward and charged in without hesitation. The raging fire ignited by a wall of Sun Moon Cliff behind him was like the boiling blood in his heart.The cavalry of the Cang Yue Army stepped through the gate of the Sun and Moon City, and the granary was already within easy reach.

"Boom!" No one expected that the cavalry rushing to the front suddenly fell into the horse trap in front of the general's house, and the sharpened bamboo in the horse pit instantly claimed the lives of dozens of cavalrymen. Moving the reins, □□ Juechen roared loudly, raised the horse's hooves, and jumped over the horse trap in front of him. He turned the horse's head, "There is an ambush! Prepare to meet the enemy!"

Before the words were finished, seven or eight hundred archers suddenly appeared on the two low walls of Sun Moon Cliff and on the cliff, and fired salvos at the Cang Yue Army in front of the general's house. In addition, the soldiers of the Black Gun Battalion waved their guns to block arrows, the horses only hit arrows sporadically, and the soldiers had wrist shields in their hands. The first three waves of arrow rain could hardly hurt the Black Gun Battalion; Li Yinshang left Su Yanzhou a brigade of the Black Sword Battalion and the Moon Tough Battalion. Now they all carried their two-handed swords and took off their big shields to cover the other brigade of the Moon Tough Battalion. They lined up in front of the Black Spear Battalion in a crescent shape. After a while, the shield was riddled with holes.

Su Yanmei, who stood up from the battlements of the second city wall, looked at the lineup of the Cang Yue army and sighed, "I thought they would rush forward after being lured, but I didn't expect to be able to attack and defend freely. General Gu, look, their shields The soldiers are like a city, but we are like the attackers."

Gu Jingzhi nodded, the ambush was not as smooth as expected, and now they are also very passive, if they continue to confront, Wolong Pass may be really dangerous.

As soon as the rain of arrows stopped, Su Yanzhou remained calm in the face of danger. After looking left and right, he immediately ordered, "Two squads of the Moon Ren Battalion, hook! Two squads of the Black Sword Battalion, stab! All of the Black Spear Battalion, go to the cliff, throw!"

At the same time, Su Yanmei waved a flag to send an order "Walk around to the first city wall on the cliff and stand by, all the troops in the city, strangle the formation!" After saying that, her body turned into a silver arc in the dark night and jumped off the city wall.

Every person and every horse in the Black Gun Battalion had two throwing guns hanging on them. At this time, everyone took off the last throwing gun and threw it on the cliff with great strength. The defenders on the cliff had already raised their heavy shields, but the force of the throwing gun Still let those shield soldiers suffer a lot of impact.

Seeing that white figure falling down, Su Yanzhou galloped out without hesitation, the shield soldiers on both sides gave way, the horse's hooves rolled up dark dust, and the black spear point in his hand pointed directly at that person. "Bang!" A fire flashed from the collision of weapons in the dark night. When the two saw each other in the flash of fire, they were both surprised. "Aunt (nephew)?" The two were surprised at the same time. statement.

However, the two of them immediately returned to normal in the next second. Su Yanzhou held a black gun in both hands and wore a black plate armor, and Su Yanmei held a silver long sword in her right hand and wore a silver fish scale armor. It's not bad." Su Yanmei's words in the dark night were undoubtedly admiration.

But Su Yanzhou didn't understand Su Yanmei's mood at this moment, "Auntie, let our army leave, my nephew is going to Fengyang with the prince."

Su Yanmei raised a sword with her right hand, and the blade was blocked by Su Yanzhou's gun blade two inches away from Su Yanzhou's face, "Now that things are going on, my nephew, why do you still follow that traitor?" Su Yanzhou's eyes seemed to want to see through his heart.However, his eyes are clear and clear, which only makes people feel a sense of righteousness. "Everything in the world is wrong, will you go back?" He asked.

Su Yanmei frowned slightly, the strength of the sword increased a bit, the blade almost touched his cheek, "Everything in the world is right, are you still persistent?" She asked back.

Hundreds of Tang soldiers had poured out from all around the Cang Yue Army. They were three in company, one with a shield, one with a gun and one with a sword, forming a spiked shield formation and slowly approaching the Cang Yue Army's phalanx.The cavalry was at a disadvantage after a long battle, and they were even more afraid of hand-to-hand combat. In the dark night, it was impossible to know how many ambush soldiers were left in Sun Moon Cliff, so they had to retreat at this time.Su Yanzhou quickly made a judgment, turned his gun and turned back, and returned to the queue, "The whole army is flying wild geese, breaking through the city gate of Sun Moon Cliff!"

Mu Zixin, the battalion commander of Yueren Battalion, leaned over, "Yanzhou, don't you want to collect food and grass?"

Su Yanzhou nodded his head, "The whole army is supreme, it's foolish to fight if you can't fight." After speaking, he rode his horse and rushed towards the way he came.

Su Yanmei did not chase after Su Yanzhou who ran back to the queue, she put away her sword and jumped into the strangulation array she designed, "Send the order, the cavalry will attack and attack the Cang Yue Army's rear!"

"They even have cavalry!" Mu Zixin turned his head, at least fifty cavalry were chasing the infantry of the Black Sword Battalion and the Moon Ren Battalion. At the second city gate, after hearing the order, everyone stopped walking, took off the large shield that was already carried behind their backs, and spun like a Frisbee and flew towards the attacking cavalry, "Boom, boom, boom." Several cavalry could not dodge , was shot down from his horse, and a black flying shield was thrown, which made the horse fearful and did not dare to move forward.When the large shields fell on the ground, due to the dense shield thorns and the arrow shafts left by the previous arrow rain, the road that was originally flat is now extremely difficult. The cavalry had to stop advancing, and the Cang Yue Army took the opportunity to go all out. retreat.

Su Yanmei, who was standing on the tower above the second city gate of Sun Moon Cliff, was calm and composed, "Since I have prepared an ambush, there won't be only one."

When I came here, there was no abnormal road, but now I don’t know when the tripping ropes have been quietly placed. Not only the pioneers of the Black Spear Battalion were unable to dodge in time, but even Su Yanzhou didn’t pay attention, and his horse was tripped instantly. Su Yanzhou gripped the saddle tightly, thrust the gun in his right hand into the ground, and poured all his strength into support, stopping the momentum of falling to the ground.Looking back, nearly a hundred cavalrymen from the Black Spear Battalion fell in front of the tripping rope, and the Cang Yue Army's formation was in chaos.And the dark archers who had already detoured here before had already made sufficient preparations. For a time, thousands of arrows were fired in the dark night. Su Yanzhou reacted very quickly. He jumped off the horse and drew his gun and waved it. Only one arrow hit by luck. His shoulder was blocked by the shoulder armor and did not hurt his flesh.

But the other soldiers did not have his reaction, and the number of casualties increased sharply in an instant. Not only the Black Spear Battalion, but the Black Sword Battalion and the Moon Tough Battalion are now without the protection of shields, and the number of arrows is constantly rising.

When Su Yanzhou looked back, his blood rushed to his head, never had the Cang Yue Army suffered such a big loss!Standing still will only result in a greater blow, and he immediately ordered to "rush out of the Sun-Moon Cliff with all our strength!" Now he can only meet the prince while minimizing losses as much as possible.Holding guns in both hands, Su Yanzhou rushed towards the rear of the troops, and helped Mu Zixin, the battalion commander of Yueren, who had been accidentally shot in the left arm and right foot in order to cover his comrades just now, "Zixin! I'll kill you. Troops retreat first!"

Mu Zixin was also one of the earliest backbones of the Cang Yue Army, and he and Su Yanzhou had long been life-and-death friends. He stood up and pulled out the dagger tied to the side of his thigh, "Yanzhou, I'm injured, I can't drag you down, you go first! "His resolute eyes faced the Sun Moon Cliff defenders who had already pressed up, without wavering in the slightest.

"Joke, even if I die, I won't leave you behind!" While speaking, Su Yanzhou swung his gun fiercely, shooting down two more flying arrows.

Mu Zixin stretched out his right hand and grabbed Su Yanzhou's shoulder, with a serious expression, "Yanzhou, you can't act on your will, I'm already disabled, only you can lead the whole army to evacuate safely, you have to listen."

After Su Yanzhou heard this, his hands clenched the iron gun couldn't stop trembling, and Mu Zixin couldn't help shouting "Yanzhou!"

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Su Yanzhou sighed, and he took a deep look at Mu Zixin, a comrade in arms who was about his age for many years. They also cut off the tying ropes one after another. After saying this, he immediately ran towards his mount and flew on the horse, "The whole army follows me, retreat!"

Mu Zixin stared at Su Yanzhou's back, and gave a relieved smile, "I still remember that the prince said that he would bring us back to our hometown. Forgive me for not being able to follow to the end..."

Su Yanzhou didn't know if he heard this sentence, his back was slightly startled, he desperately opened his eyes wide to prevent tears from dripping from his sockets, "Go!" Two lines of hot tears finally flowed down his cheeks, seeping into the dark blue inside the armor.

On the cliffs on both sides outside the Yinfeng Valley, the Dark Bow Battalion, led by Sun Youmin, ambushed on both sides of the valley.According to Li Yinshang's layout, the end of Yinfeng Valley - Yinfeng Pass will definitely send troops to reinforce Wolong Pass, and then only need to use the rain of arrows to force the reinforcements back.

Sure enough, the defenders of Yinfengguan marched in a hurry and were shot and turned on their backs.Due to the dark sky, it was impossible to estimate the number of ambushes, and the defenders of Yinfeng Pass were forced to guard the pass, which caused the Wolong Pass to be unable to receive reinforcements for a long time.

Outside the east gate of Wolong Pass, soldiers in dark blue armor and soldiers in crimson armor have been confronting each other. The Cang Yue Army wearing dark blue battle robes and black armor has completely withdrawn from the city of Wolong Pass. Due to Li Yin wounding the hostages However, the Tiance Army did not dare to act rashly. "You kill me." Wen Qingyi said to Li Yinshang who was still holding her neck tightly.

"Killing you, can you save the innocent soldiers who died on the front line?" Li Yinshang asked.Wen Qingyi's eyes under the long eyelashes showed a trace of sadness, so she was speechless.

Li Yinshang also showed sadness on his face, and his tone was always serious, "Qing Yi, tell me honestly, what did you see at Mawei Station that day?"

Wen Qingyi said angrily, "Don't you know everything clearly?"

Li Yinshang's tone suddenly turned cold, "Are you saying it or not?"

Wen Qingyi only felt the murderous intent behind her back, and she didn't seem to have the need to keep this question secret: "The team led by Shi Yun and Ning Wu from the Snow-Treading Army that day. I have dealt with them in Tongguan before, and I will never Acknowledge your mistake."

When Li Yinshang heard the word Ning Wu, he just felt a thunderbolt across the sky, hitting the top of his head, and the hand holding the sword was naturally released. He would never believe all this, "You go!" .” His words contained a heaviness.

Wen Qing walked towards her troops, turned her head inadvertently, and saw Li Yinshang's bitter and downcast expression, which shocked her heart.

"It's not good!" After Cang Yue's army left, suddenly a Tiance soldier rushed to report.

Wen Qingyi twisted her neck, Wen Yi was taken aback, "What's the matter?"

"The granary at Wolongguan was plundered! 150 stone grains are missing!"

Wen Qingyi's heart sank, but she didn't feel surprised after thinking about it.She looked towards the east, although she could no longer see the whereabouts of the Cang Yue Army, she still sighed, "As expected of King Fengyang, he is admirable."

On July 21st of the first year of Zhide, the Cangyue army divided into three groups to attack three strongholds in Bailongkou in the north of Fengyang County. The defenders of Yinfengguan were ambushed by the Cangyue army and suffered heavy losses. The main force was to kill the battalion commander Yue Ren of the Cang Yue Army; although the guards of Wolong Pass were not seriously injured, they lost their food and grass, and eventually the Cang Yue Army retreated completely.Su Yanmei rectified the three strongholds, dismissed the general guard of Yinfeng Gate, transferred Xuanyuanshe and General Wen Sheng to defend, and then personally led the main force of Tiance Army and New Fengyang Army to surround Cang Yue Army in the south.

Su Yanmei's army is chasing him in the north, and Yinfengguan is dangerous in the south. What should Li Yinshang do?
