Chapter 472

The erratic wind is fair to both offensive and defensive sides. In unfair places, only in the distinction between the terrain of both sides, the defenders standing high can cause casualties to the attackers below with the most primitive weapon "stone", and there is no shortage of stones in the mountainous area with strange stones.

The Han Army replaced some flexible and light soldiers, and the speed of advance was naturally accelerated, but without a thick tower shield to block stones, casualties were bound to increase.

The obstacle to attack Jitou pass is still on the road. There are only a few roads that can be attacked. Each of them is arranged with defense nodes by the garrison. After the Han army is close enough, it is bleeding next to dense stones. All the time, we can see the soldiers who hit the stone cry and fall to the ground, and the soldiers who were directly hit by the stone and fall into the deep valley.

The original rugged road was covered with large and small stones. Some Han soldiers who died in battle were directly buried under the stones, stretched out their bodies or only exposed their heads, giving the visible picture a sense of desolation.

Why the garrison didn't directly seal the road is a question worth thinking about. Just like the Han Army in the valley can be flooded by digging the Baohe River after the water storage, Li Chenghan didn't do so. I don't know whether he didn't expect or had any concerns.

Many things will be very luxurious for front-line soldiers to think of. All they can think of is how to complete their current tasks and do their best to complete them.

"More than 200 casualties..." Lin Feng said with an unusually gloomy face, "so far, no casualties have been caused to the pass garrison."

Liu Rui has been watching the war, including his wounded soldiers being carried on stretchers and helped back. He knows exactly what's going on. What he wants to pay attention to is the morale of his officers and men. This kind of battle in which his own side continues to produce casualties and cannot attack the enemy is very easy to make his own morale low.

Jitouguan is not the highest place in this mountain area. It is only built in the opened road and dangerous area, that is, the dangerous and important place in the real sense.

There are a group of Han troops out of Shimen who specially explore the nearby terrain. It is a feasible way to seize the Highlands that can attack Jitou pass, that is, they don't know whether the defenders of Jitou pass have made targeted arrangements.

"Can only continue." Liu Rui pursed his lips: "as long as you can attack, it's easy to say anything."

As Hou Linfeng, who directly led the attack under his command, he was very distressed about the death and injury of his corporal. When he was ordered, he clenched his teeth and nodded heavily.

The attack continued all the time. The Han sergeant was staring at the falling stones and moving forward. After there were more sundries on the road, it was impossible to be flexible and light. A lot of tower shields came up in the rear and began to form a shield wall, moving forward slowly.

Fu An knew nothing about the Han army. He could see that the equipment of the Han army was quite good. For example, the iron tower shield seemed extremely luxurious for the armies of many countries, but it was obvious that the number of tower shields held by the Han Army had sufficient reserves.

"We didn't prepare the boulder?" Li Yi's identity is the supervisor of the army or the Taibao of Li's Chenghan, which is deeply trusted by Li Shi. He frowned at the slowly advancing Han Army and said, "are you ready for fire oil and gold juice?"

Fu An was stunned. He didn't have a good impression of the supervisor who had been drinking and playing with women in the camp. Now he was stunned and even worse.

The terrain of jitouguan is beneficial to the defense. The problem is that many sections are cliff terrain, not the terrain with high inclination. Stones that can be lifted by people can be smashed above. When the boulder is pushed to the falling position, it is a cliff and can't hit the road. What's the use of coming?

Every army will have fire oil. The difference is more and less. It is not impossible to use fire oil when defending Jitou pass. Look at the wind in the canyon. Once it is set on fire, it is definitely not just the enemy, which is bound to form a comprehensive fire in the canyon area.

Gold juice is actually feces. It will naturally be excreted. The problem is how to throw it on the other side of the road in the erratic wind?

"Deaf?" Li Yi raised his eyebrows and said unhappily, "you can't defeat the enemy just by smashing it with stones. You send someone to counter charge and drive the enemy back to the plank road."

"The last general... The last general will be organized." Fu an actually refused in his heart, but he was crushed to death by the senior official. Moreover, Li Shi had great trust in Li Yi. It was better to kill others than to be killed behind him. He turned around, his face became very ugly, and told people, "let those barbarians go down and fight."

There are also some southern barbarians in Jitou pass. They come from the same tribe. There are not only men, but also women. Barbarians look the same. What is more distinctive is that they will tattoo some tattoos on all parts of their body. Each tribe will have its own tattoo totem and the habit of tattooing on a certain part of their facial features.

Xiaodou is very difficult to carry the tower shield. Just now a stone hit his foot. After bleeding, every move will leave blood.

"Give me the tower shield." Looking at the stout man called Muzi, who is the same soldier as Xiaodou. He found that Xiaodou was injured and urged: "go down and check it first, and come back if it's not serious."

The injured part of Xiaodou is painful and numb. Fortunately, he can feel painful and numb. Otherwise, his feet are useless. He pulled a smile, looked at Wu Chang Li Mi, who was hit on the shoulder, and said, "Wu Chang has walked sideways and hasn't retreated yet. My little injury is nothing."

Their chief was just killed, and there were only four people left. The other was looking at the thin robe, and I didn't know how they were selected into the war soldiers.

Several soldiers were showing brotherhood and sincere love. A burst of wolf crying and ghost howling suddenly appeared in front. Some soldiers in front were reminding the enemy to launch a counter charge and prepare people for fighting.

At the corner of the mountain road came a group of barbarians who were wearing grass skirts and holding big sticks. Their faces were covered with soil and added a lot of color. They ran very fast on the rugged mountain road. They howled while running. They looked at the momentum, but they were too short.

The barbarians rushed out and finally stopped falling stones. The Han soldiers with great psychological pressure were not used to it and boosted their morale at the same time.

Liu Rui, who was watching the battlefield from a distance, was stunned when he saw that the defenders took the initiative to attack, and was even more puzzled when he saw that the barbarians rushed out.

"Are they so confident?" Liu Rui was overjoyed when he came back and shouted, "let the army be sure not to win!"

What Liu Rui wants is for his troops to collapse in the face of the enemy.

The Han Army in front was fighting with the barbarians before they got the military order. The relationship between the road is too narrow. In fact, the two sides can really fight face-to-face, that is, a few people. Only when the people in front fall down can the people in the rear go up.

For the Han soldiers who are full of frustration, it is really good to have a close combat. At least the defenders at high places will worry about accidental injury and no longer throw stones. They have always been advancing with casualties. They have not even touched a hair of the enemy. In the long run, their morale is bound to shrink. There is nothing like fighting with real knives and guns to save their morale.

The command from the peak arrived, so that when facing the barbarians, they can only lose but not win. Taking Xiaodou as an example, they are both puzzled and depressed. In fact, it is very easy for them to kill when facing the barbarians. As long as they protect the wooden stick waved by the barbarians, they can send them back to the West with a war knife at the next moment. Shangfeng ordered that he could only defeat but not win. The soldiers had only one ruthless strength in the face of the barbarians, but they looked stupid. They made a difficult appearance and retreated without killing them.

Fu An was stunned when he saw that the barbarians beat back the Han army. It's no secret what kind of fighting power the barbarians are.

In dense forests and mountainous areas, the barbarians are very powerful in fighting guerrillas, but it is a way of fighting and hiding, which can only sneak attacks and prolong the war process, and can not determine the outcome of a war at all. After all, no war can be won by guerrillas. What is needed is a confrontation on the front battlefield. It is an absolute fact that guerrillas can only hurt the skin of the enemy but not the muscles and bones.

The barbarians beat back the Han army. Fu An with normal IQ knew that it was just a strategy of the Han army. If he wanted to stop at the right time, he should let the war return to the garrison and stick to the pass instead of going out to fight with the Han army.

"That's right." Li Yi was laughing in a burst of complacent "ha ha". After laughing, he contemptuously pointed to the Han Army that looked embarrassed and retreated: "continue to kill them and block them into the plank road."

"..." Fu'an doubted Li Yi's IQ level, but he dared not say or disobey Li Yi's will. He could only watch Li Yi give directions, but without his own orders, the garrison really listened.

After Li Shi came to power, there have been many civil strife within Li's Chenghan Dynasty. In general, there will be frequent unrest in countries. It is just that the king as the ruling class is stupid or stupid enough, and there are a number of demons in the high-level.

Last year... That is, in the third year of Yuanshuo, Li Shi's younger brother, General Li Guang, king of the Han Dynasty, asked to be the emperor's younger brother because Li Shi had no son. Li Shi disagreed. Ma Dang and Xie Siming believed that there were not many brothers in Li Shi. If they were abolished again, they would be more isolated and weak and dangerous, so they insisted on persuading Li Shi to agree to Li Guang's request.

Li Shi suspected that they and Li Guang had premeditated, and ordered Dong Jiao to capture Madang and Xie Siming, kill them and annihilate the three ethnic groups. He also sent Taibao Li Yi to attack Li Guang in Fucheng, demoted Li Guang as Linqiong Hou, and Li Guang committed suicide.

When Xie Siming was arrested, he sighed and said, "the reason why the country does not perish is because we are in danger now!", Then he talked and laughed and died.

Xie Siming has wisdom and strategy, and dares to speak frankly. Ma dangsu won the hearts of the people. After their death, the scholars and people all mourned.

This year... That is, in the four years of Yuanshuo, if history had not been changed, Li Yi, who was deeply trusted by Li Shi, would rebel in Jinshou (Modern Jialing). Most of the people in Jinshou rebelled with Li Yi. Of course, the main reason is that Li Shi really made heaven angry and people resent.

Generally speaking, they are not simple people who can act as demons or make the country subjugated. None of them will be fools. On the contrary, they are extremely smart people, that is, intelligence is often used in inappropriate places.

Li Yi is a very smart man. He is smart enough to understand that Li Chenghan is doomed this time. As a smart man, he can't be buried in a country doomed to subjugation. He should leave a way back.

Whether it was true or false, the Han Army in the attack retreated again and again until there was no way to retreat before launching a counterattack. The excited barbarians really thought they were heroic and invincible. Until the Han Army really played, they found that it was not the same thing. The picture evolved into that the Han army ran over the barbarians.

Liu Rui was stunned again. He was holding a handwritten letter in his hand and a barbarian stood on his side.

This man is a little taller, but he is only about 1.6 meters. He is one of the episodes sent by Li Yi. It seems that he is also the only one to see the high-level Han Army present. His aim, of course, was to get in touch with the Han army.

Liu Rui knows who Li Yi is. It seems that he is one of the favorite people after Li Shi became the leader of the country.

"My Lord is willing to offer the pass..." Yunlu smiled pleasantly: "not only the Jitou pass, but also several passes in the back Jigu can help your army capture it, but..."

"Well, I understand, very well." Liu Rui hates traitors, but traitors are welcome if they appear on the other side. What he is worried about now is the attitude of Huan Wen. After all, the previous military order has not been changed. He can only make a false gesture and wait for Yunlu to be taken down before he orders his own soldiers: "report the situation here to the Lord general truthfully and ask for instructions."

As the chief general, Huan Wen is still walking on the plank road. He received a report from Liu Rui a day later.

"Yin Hao has burst into Dangqu county all the way." Huan Wen actually didn't have time to read Liu Rui's military intelligence report. He was talking to Yuan Qiao about another army. After that, he picked up the paper and looked at it. When he saw it, he was dumbfounded: "Li Yi is going down."

"The forward can't attack the chicken head pass?" Yuan Qiao knew that only in this way would Huan Wen say those words, otherwise he wouldn't even mention them. He pondered for a moment and had to say, "since Li Yi decided to surrender, that is, his previous goal has been achieved. We can consider starting to recruit and surrender traitors."

This is why Huan Wen likes to partner with Yuan Qiao. It doesn't need too much paperwork to start a conversation, and most of them understand each other.

"The official position of Taibao is not low." Huan Wen thought for a moment and asked, "is Jin Shou Li Yi's fief?"

"Yes, you can let Li Yi start a rebellion in Jinshou and destroy min Jian and Li Fu." Yuan Qiao's expression gradually became relaxed. "Ha ha" smiled a few times before saying: "it's best to destroy Cheng Guo before autumn."

Huan Wen was very concerned about whether he could participate in the invasion of the small imperial court of the Eastern Jin Dynasty. He had always planned to destroy Li Chenghan quickly. Now it seems that the goal has been completed. The next step is to obtain several key battles and completely disintegrate Li Chenghan's resistance will.
