Chapter 1825

As Tang Yin expected, there were not many Shenchi children on the way to the south. After two days and nights in the mountains and mountains, he and Xia Yao finally arrived at the south of Shenchi.

At this time, however, the situation here was chaotic. The Sichuan army invading Shenchi was fighting with the Shenchi people headed by Dongfang yehuai.

In fact, because of the death of Gaoge, Dongfang yehuai has already been frustrated. He has no intention to work for Guanghan any more, and does not want to confront the Sichuan army. However, the Sichuan army does not think so. Since it has decided to launch a large-scale attack, it will never be soft hearted. Hundreds of thousands of troops will advance in batches.

At first, Dongfang yehuai was still mainly harassing, trying to restrain the speed of the Sichuan army's advance. But gradually, the Sichuan army also felt that the counterattack from the Shenchi side was not strong, and seemed to show weakness.

Xiao Xuan gathered all the generals under his command, and speculated that Shenchi must have spent most of his energy on resisting the wind forces, so he mainly restrained himself.

In order to understand this, Xiao Xuan ordered the whole army to advance at full speed. In any case, he should rush ahead of the Feng army to attack Shenchi city.

At this time, Xiao Xuan is also selfish. Whether it is the wind force or the Sichuan army, who can lead the first to attack the Shenchi city will have the opportunity to firmly control the Shenchi in their own hands.

If FengChuan and FengChuan are in a bad situation in the future, who will take the absolute initiative in controlling the sacred pool. It was also out of such consideration that he quickly mobilized the Sichuan army to invade Shenchi after he learned that the wind force had attacked Shenchi.

The main force of Sichuan army under the command of Xiao Xuan was not restrained by Dongfang yehuai at all, and went straight to the core Shenchi city of Shenchi.

Dongfang yehuai is frustrated with Guanghan listen, but it does not mean that he can tolerate the holy pool city being trampled on by other countries' troops. In Dongfang yehuai's mind, Guanghan listening is Guanghan listening, and Shenchi is a divine pool. The two cannot be confused, let alone destroyed by Guanghan listening.

In addition, the elders and his disciples who came with him began to complain. If we just give in and contain them, we will not be able to stop the advance of the Sichuan army. If we continue, the Sichuan army will come under the city in a few days. By then, the Shenchi will be in danger.

For these reasons, Dongfang yehuai can only change the tactics, abandon the tactics of harassment and containment, and decide to confront the Sichuan army.

Of course, the manpower of Dongfang yehuai is not directly proportional to the strength of Sichuan army. The Sichuan army sent out three legions, with more than 300000 people at the top and bottom, while Dongfang yehuai had only 3000 soldiers at the top, and the gap between the two sides was 100 times.

If there is a positive confrontation, Dongfang yehuai has no chance of winning. However, the dangerous terrain of the Shenchi Lake helps him.

From the south to Shenchi City, you have to pass through hukoujian. It is a narrow and deep valley, with towering mountains on both sides and a rugged mountain road in the middle. The ground is full of boulders, which makes it difficult for people and animals to walk. If the Sichuan army wants to pass from here, even the army's logistics have to be dismantled and transported in batches.

What's more, the whole hukoujian is shaped like an "8", with wide sides and narrow middle. At the narrowest place in the center, the three people are crowded. If there are people guarding the hilltops on both sides and the people below want to pass, it's too difficult.

Such a dangerous place, Dongfang yehuai took a fancy to it, and the Sichuan army also noticed it.

When the main force of the Sichuan army was still a long way from Hukou stream, it sent a vanguard force of 20000 people to arrive at hukoujian first. The soldiers climbed to the top of the mountain on both sides of the river to camp, so as to prevent the Shenchi people from occupying the area and hindering their own advance.

It can be said that the Sichuan army has achieved prevention in advance. As a result, they still underestimated the strength of Dongfang yehuai. In the early morning of the next day, the 20000 strong garrison retreated back to the Sichuan army. Xiao Xuan called the general who led the army to know that last night, the Sichuan army stationed at the top of the mountain was suddenly attacked by the people of Shenchi. Due to insufficient preparation and the enemy's high level of intelligence and martial arts, the Sichuan army could not resist and was beaten dizzy. Finally, they died, fled and fell.

Fortunately, there was no reckless killing on the other side of the Shenchi lake. All the soldiers who surrendered to Sichuan were released. Otherwise, there would be so many people who could not escape back.

After hearing this, Xiao Xuan's face turned white. The elite army of 20000 people was killed by thousands of Shenchi people, and it was still in the situation of occupying the land.

He severely punished the general who led the army. Then he ordered General Zhang Song and General Hu Ning to unite 50000 troops. In any case, he wanted to take hukoujian and clear the obstacles for his army's northward March.

Zhang Song and Hu Ning, two generals, were ordered to fight. As a result, they both went and came back quickly. They were full of confidence when they went, but they were disheartened when they came back.

Although there are only about 3000 Shenchi people on the top of hukoujian mountain, the 50000 army led by them can't attack at all. After a whole day of fierce fighting, the officers and soldiers of the Sichuan army didn't even attack half the mountainside. Instead, they suffered a lot.

This can make Xiao Xuan very angry. It would be unreasonable to say that the first wave of his 20000 army was attacked by surprise and unprepared. It would be reasonable to say that the 50000 army of the second wave could not attack Hukou stream.

Xiao Xuan ordered that the whole army set out to go straight to Hukou stream. No matter how strong the enemy occupied Hukou stream was, his side must cross it today.When the main force of Sichuan army arrived at hukoujian, Xiao Xuan personally came to the front of the army and looked forward.

I haven't seen Hukou stream. It's just an ordinary mountain stream for Xiao Xuan. Now, seeing it with my own eyes, Xiao Xuan can't help but take a breath of cold air and say, "what a precipitous place!

The high mountains on both sides of the mountain stream must be more than ten feet high, and the mountain is steep. Even on the side with the most gentle slope, it seems almost straight up and down. Such a dangerous terrain can be said to be a barrier for one man, and no one can open it.

At this time, he finally understood why Zhang Song and Hu Ning, the two generals, could not defeat hukoujian.

General Yang Zhao came to Xiao Xuan and said in a low voice, "my king, this is very dangerous. If we can't wipe out the enemies on both sides of the mountain tops, it will be very difficult for our army to pass through. However, if we want to make a strong attack, it will not be easy."

"No matter how hard it is, we have to fight!" Xiao Xuan said in a deep voice: "if our army wants to break the Shenchi City, we must pass through Hukou River, and there is no other way. If our army wants to reach Shenchi city before the wind force, we must fight and make a quick decision. There is no other way."

Yang Zhao looked positive, nodded and said, "I will know. My king, the last general is willing to lead our soldiers in the battle! "

Xiao Xuan turned to look at Yang Zhao, pondered for a moment, and whispered, "Yang Zhao, you must not be careless. Although there are not many people in the Shenchi lake, they are all smart and powerful. When attacking, if you see that the situation is wrong, you should withdraw immediately. You must not be greedy for war or love war!"

"At last I will understand, your majesty, don't worry!" Yang Zhao stepped in and took command.

Yang Zhao is one of Xiao Xuan's favorite generals, and also a famous general of Sichuan.

He personally led the Sichuan army of 80000 people to launch a fierce attack on the mountain on the left side of hukoujian. Although Yang Zhao is a civilian, he is also a veteran veteran with rich experience and good at arranging troops.

He first selected soldiers from the army who were strong and flexible, and asked them to carry ropes to lead the battle. Instead of rushing to the top of the mountain, he only needed to move forward in sections. Every time he went, he had to fix the ropes for his own soldiers to climb.

According to Yang Zhao's arrangement, the Sichuan army attacked the left peak of hukoujian. More than a thousand soldiers of Sichuan went to the battle with light clothes and no weapons. They carried large bundles of hemp rope on their backs and took the lead in climbing the mountain.

After climbing only about five meters, they stopped one after another, and then took off the hemp rope from their bodies, fixed one end to the rock, the other to the bottom of the mountain, and then continued to climb up the mountain.

Seeing a rope thrown down, the soldiers of Sichuan army swarmed forward, holding the rope in hand and launching an impact on the mountain.

At first, they were OK, but when the strong soldiers approached the mountainside, the sound of shouting and drinking was heard on the top of the mountain. Then, hundreds of spiritual arrows flew down.

Just in a flash, dozens of soldiers were shot by the spirit arrow, and they all screamed and tumbled down the hillside.

Some of the Sichuan soldiers, who were quick to react, took refuge on the spot and hid behind the rocks. They thought that if there were rocks to block them, they would be able to prevent the spirit arrows shooting from their heads, but they were wrong.

Some of the later spirit arrows did not go straight at all, but flew down in an arc in the air, bypassed the rocks and directly nailed them to the soldiers behind the rocks. Some of them went in a straight line, but their strength was too big. They were nailed on the stones and made a crackling sound. The smaller stones were directly penetrated by the arrows, and they also shot the soldiers hiding behind them.

After a few rounds of soul arrows, there were not many Sichuan soldiers left. Seeing that the other side's arrow array was too terrifying and overbearing, people lost the courage to continue climbing. They threw away their ropes and ran back with their heads in their arms.

Many people are just a few steps out, they are tracked down by the spirit of the arrow shot to the ground.

These soldiers were shot one by one and did not stop the advance of the Sichuan army behind them. Looking across the mountains and fields, the dense Sichuan army was climbing up the rope.

Soon, the arrows stopped on the mountain. Before the soldiers could breathe, they heard the roar from the top of the mountain. At the same time, even the mountain was shaking slightly.

People look up subconsciously, and then their faces don't change much.

I saw countless boulders rolling down from the top of the mountain. Some of them were even more than one person high. They rolled down with the power of Wanjun. In the places where they passed, they were crushed to pieces of stone and flying with soil debris. The noise was terrible.

Sichuan soldiers are on the hillside, and there is no room to hide. When the boulder rolls near, many people watch the boulder run over their bodies and face the boulder weighing 100 kg or more. Even the spiritual practitioners with spiritual armor can't resist it.
