Liang Qi did not listen to Shangguan Yuan's advice. He commanded his Sanshui Army and just as he left the desert, he was about to enter the deep mountains. At this time, the Dookie Envoys rushed over, and at the same time, brought a large amount of medicine.
There were very few people who dared to enter the wild mountains and mountains at the border of the Feng Country and Feng Country. Firstly, because of the dangerous terrain, cliffs and cliffs could be seen everywhere, and secondly, because of the poisonous miasma in the mountains, especially the miasma, which was extremely harmful to the human body. As for the medicine brought by the Dookie Envoys, it was precisely used to prevent miasma and to cure poisons, which was why Liang Qi had so much help with his Sanshui Army.
However, it was this batch of medicine sent by the Dookie that brought about a destructive disaster to the Dookie in the future.
To march in the mountains was ten times, or even a hundred times, more difficult than marching in the desert. To march in the mountains, it was ten times, or a hundred times, more difficult than marching in the desert. Fortunately, the food they brought was sufficient and they also had the medicine sent by the Dookie to prevent miasma and detoxification. Otherwise, the entire army would have to die in the mountains.
Even so, a large number of soldiers were bitten and sickened by the poisonous creatures in the mountain every day.
Sanshui Army traveled bitterly in the desert for ten days, and travelled for a full fifteen days in the barren mountain before finally approaching Tong Gate. Sanshui Army had not made any rest during the entire journey from the start of the expedition to their destination. They had been hurrying on the march, yet they had walked for more than a month. He originally went into battle with a hundred thousand people, but when he neared Tong Gate, his manpower had already been reduced by more than ten thousand.
A month ago, the Sanshui Army Army was organized and fully organized, and when one looked at it again after a month, they would see that the soldiers' faces were yellow and skinny, their armor crooked. Many of the soldiers were even walking shakily, their heads and faces covered with dirt, and if not for the fact that the military had a flag, they would be no different from refugees.
The journey from Tianyuan County to this time had passed through both Bessar and Dookie, and the dangers and hardships of the journey could be said to be unprecedented. Even if Liang Qi recalled the dangers involved several years later, he could not help but feel some lingering fear. The lives of the surviving ninety thousand Sanshui Army warriors could be considered to have been reclaimed.
This was Zong Yuan's strategy to take a detour and ambush Tong Gate.
Traveling was difficult, but these ninety thousand Sanshui Army s were indeed effective for Elite Armaments. Ning Jun, who was guarding the Tong Gate, never dreamed that there would be so many Feng Army s that suddenly appeared under the city walls.
The danger of Tong Gate was rarely seen in the world, as it lay between two mountains. If one attacked from the front and back, they could only attack from the front and back, which lightened the burden on one's defense.
Because Tong Gate was originally a Feng Country Stronghold, the city's defenses were always strong in the west and weak in the east. The western city wall was more than four Zhang tall and over ten meters wide, while the eastern city wall was less than three Zhang, and not more than ten meters. However, the progress was relatively slow. After all, a large portion of the Feng Country to the east of the Tong Gate had been ceded to the Ning Country, and became part of the Ning Country territory. Thus, the Tong Gate had become the inner city of the Ning Country.
Right now, the Ning Country was more of a transition station, where a large amount of supplies and food was hoarded.
When the Sanshui Army neared the Tong Gate, Liang Qi did not immediately give the order to attack. On one side, he let the soldiers continue to stay deep in the mountains to rest and organize themselves, and on the other hand, he sent out the spies from the Sky Eye and Earth Web to scout the situation within and outside the Tong Gate.
Very quickly, the spies of the Sky Eye and the Earth Web contacted their comrades who were originally hiding near the Tong Gate, and spread the important news regarding the Tong Gate one by one.
Currently, the number of soldiers stationed in the Tong Gate of the Ning Army was thirty to forty thousand, and the guard general was called Zhang Xiaoting. On the northwest side of Tong Gate, there was also a stronghold of the Ning Army called Jufeng. There were also more than ten thousand Ning Army stationed here, forming a horn with the Tong Gate.
After listening to the scout's report, Liang Qi nodded his head silently, it seemed that the Ning Country attached great importance to them, and their defense was extremely perfect. If their own army were to attack from the front, when they attacked the Tong Gate, the Ning Army inside the Jufeng would definitely sneak attack them from the side, causing chaos. At that time, the Ning Army would come out again, but their own army would not be able to attack the city, and would instead be attacked by the enemy.
At this moment, Shangguan Yuan let out a grin and laughed, then said: "The Jufeng is located in the northwest side of the Tong Gate, it's very close to our army, Liang Qi, I think we should be able to catch them off guard and destroy the Ning Army in the Jufeng, and occupy the Jufeng first!"
Liang Qi rolled his eyes at him, and asked back: "My army took a dangerous route, what is the purpose of winding around to the Tong Gate? is to seize Tong Gate. If we fight with Jufeng first, the tracks of our army will definitely be exposed. In that case, we'll have no reason to take a detour! "
Shangguan Yuan was not convinced and said: "Don't tell me we don't fight Jufeng? With such a fortress near the Tong Gate, if our army were to attack Tong Gate directly, what should we do if the Ning army from the side attack? "
Liang Qi remained silent, Shangguan Yuan's questioning also made it difficult for him. Leaving Jufeng would be a great danger to their own side, and if they attacked Jufeng, their own side would be exposed. This fortress is really annoying, ah, just like its name, Jufeng, resist my Army of the Gale!
After pondering for a long time, Liang Qi asked the leader of the spies, "Who is the general guarding Jufeng? What kind of person is he? What is your relationship with the General Zhang Xiaoting? "
In reply to General, the protector of Jufeng is Zhang Feng, he is Zhang Xiaoting's cousin, their relationship is naturally out of the ordinary. As for human nature, Zhang Feng is far inferior to his cousin Zhang Xiaoting, he is brutal, he is greedy and lustful, since he was transferred to Tong Gate, he has been plundering and robbing everywhere, stealing money and food, the people of Tong Gate have suffered greatly, the citizens do not want to live!
Zhong Tian gave the two hundred li of Feng Country to the Ning Country, causing the citizens to move inside, but there were still many people who thought of their homeland, and were unwilling to leave, so they decided to stay, and these people became the targets of Zhang Feng's oppression.
Hearing that, Liang Qi's eyes turned, he suddenly laughed, and said: "That's good!"
Hearing this, all the surrounding generals were stunned. The Feng Zhenren who was left in the ceding grounds was being oppressed by the Ning clan. How could he still be so good? Shangguan Yuan raised his eyebrow, he glanced at Liang Qi, although he did not say anything, but the look in his eyes was clear enough, who the hell were you?
Liang Qi smiled and said: "I have a plan that we can use to lighten our Tong Gate!"
"Oh?" Shangguan Yuan perked up and asked, "How do I get it?"
Liang Qi looked at Shangguan Yuanyang, changed the topic, and asked with slight disdain: "Everyone says that General Yuan has the courage to fight against tens of thousands of people, and to take the head of an enemy general in front of two armies is like picking a bag. In my opinion, this is a bit too much, he is far from being as brave as he is, right?"
"Bullshit!" Hearing that, his black face flushed red. Adding Liang Qi's complacent look, he burned even more fiercely as he slapped the table, stood up, and scolded: "Liang Qi, if it wasn't for the fact that my lord ordered you to be the commander, I would have listened to you fart here. I would have long since cut you apart with my f * cking blade!"
"Don't make the general angry. Sit, sit, sit!" Liang Qi did not care about Shangguan Yuanyang's anger and curses at all, his face still smiling. He waved his hand and said: "Yuanyun has General asked me how to obtain my Tong Gate, it's actually very simple, I give General Yuanyun a mission, as long as General Yuanyu can smoothly complete it, getting my Tong Gate will be as easy as flipping my palm!"
"If you have something to say, quickly say it. If you have to fart, quickly say it. What are you going to do?" Shangguan Yuan said in a rough voice.
"Let the general go to the Jufeng and take Zhang Feng's head!"
"Then... "Is that so?" Shangguan Yuan looked at Liang Qi in disbelief.
Liang Qi nodded and said: "That's it!"
"That's easy. How many men and horses will you give me?"
Liang Qi thought about it carefully and then extended five fingers.
"Five thousand people?"
Liang Qi shook his head.
"Five hundred people?"
Liang Qi still shook his head.
Shangguan Yuan panicked and asked, "How many people are there?"
Liang Qi said with a smile: "At most fifty people!"
Shangguan Yuan was angered to death, he shook his head and said: "You f * cking have the nerve to speak?! You want me to take only fifty brothers and attack the fortress that is guarded by over ten thousand enemy troops? "
Liang Qi blinked his eyes and said: "Didn't General Yuanyu have the courage to fight against tens of thousands of people? Logically speaking, even if the general were to go alone to retrieve Zhang Feng's head, it would be very easy! "
"I …" Shangguan Yuan was speechless, his two eyes were wide open, this Liang Qi, was really bad! He waved his hand and said, "I'll go alone. I won't bring a single brother. I'll go alone!"
Liang Qi waved his hand, saying, "You can't! The number of people General Yuan can bring can't be too many, but it can't be too few either.
"Huh?" Shangguan Yuan couldn't understand what Liang Qi was trying to do this time.
On that day, there were no unusual movements in the Sanshui Army, but the number of soldiers was decreasing. Led by the Sky Eye and the Earth Web scouts, a large number of soldiers quietly left the camp, walked out of the deep mountains, and headed towards the Tong Gate.
The next day, Sanshui Army still did not have the intention to launch a big attack. Just like the day before, only the soldiers were secretly controlling them from the outside.
Shangguan Yuan did not know where these soldiers had been sent to by Liang Qi. He asked twice, but Liang Qi kept it to himself. It wasn't until these three days later that Liang Qi found Shangguan Yuan to let him have his way. At the same time, he gave him a ball of clothes, telling him to change into them before going to attack the Jufeng Stronghold.
Taking the clothes from Liang Qi, Shangguan Yuan opened them up to take a look. These were all common clothes, he asked in a daze, "Aren't these the common clothes?"
"That's right!" I wanted you to disguise as a commoner to kill Zhang Feng! " Liang Qi tilted his body, pointed to the entrance of the tent, and said: "I have already helped you find the brothers that are with you."
"Oh?" Shangguan Yuan looked towards the outside of the tent following his finger. There were indeed dozens of people standing outside the tent. All of them were dressed as commoners, and they looked no different from ordinary commoners with a cold gaze.
It didn't matter to him what clothes he wore, Shangguan Yuan didn't care too much about it. He asked, "When do I fight?"
"Now!"
"Now? This is daytime! "
"What is it? Is General Yuan afraid of the enemy during the day? "
Shangguan Yuan gritted his teeth in anger and didn't say anything. He quickly took off his armor and started changing his clothes.
