Guan Yu's posture of luring the enemy was very successful, forcing Jing Yi, who was originally trying to strengthen the wall and clear the field, to the point where he had to gather troops to fight.

Unfortunately, Guan Yu himself, who was in the fog of war, did not know these things. Those who used the tricks could not get immediate feedback on the "successful plan". So for nearly half a month, Guan Yu had to continue to maintain low intensity pressure and fight stalemate every day.

"Boom boom boom"

One day in mid-September, the stalemate continued. With two echoes, the two stone bullets that were not very standard in shape and weight, weighing about 70 kilograms suddenly flew more than two hundred steps away.

As a result, only one hit the rammed earth wall of the Concaoyao Ridge Pass. Another one fell a little by dozens of steps, hit the towering mountain wall next to it, broke an oak tree and sank into the soil.

Since Li Su invented the counterweight catapult, the regulation of this weapon in Liu Bei's army has formed a three-speed scale of light, medium and heavy equipment after two years of development.

When dealing with other Central Plains separatist warlords, Li Su suggested that Liu Bei strictly control the application of this catapult to avoid the leakage of technology, but if you attack the Southwest Yi, you don’t have to worry. Anyway, what happened in these 100,000 mountains would not be able to spread to the outside world in a vivid way.

Today, Guan Yu asked the soldiers to use light stone bullets, but the counterweight was increased, in order to throw the stone bullets up and bombard the walls on the ridge from the lower part of the mountain road, while ensuring that the range exceeds the coverage of the crossbow on the walls.

This simple broken rammed earth wall is enough to pose a threat. The mountain road is narrow and difficult to build, so a total of two light models were built, which can definitely achieve the tactical intention of "forcing the enemy to increase troops and strengthen defense."

"The weather has been almost cool enough for so long. Why haven't the third brother and Boya moved yet? They didn't even inform me of the military information. Could it be that Jing Yi recently sent a small group of enemy troops to raid our unicycle grain team? Boya was afraid that the messenger would be intercepted and leaked the secret, so he did not contact me at all?

But if you continue like this, the pass of the Aoyao Mountain will be smashed. Will this scene of luring the enemy be played? Forget it, I have given Jing Yi so many days to buffer. Even if he breaks the pass, I believe he must have set up camps and defenses on the back of the mountain, and there are many troops stationed."

Guan Yu looked at the shaking Guan Wall, thinking in his heart, suppressing his anxiety.

Who made Li Su and Zhang Fei take action seem to be slower than the original plan? Guan Yu didn't know whether he encountered another accident or whether his attempt to attract the main force of the enemy was not successful enough, and the enemy was not all mobilized, so Li Su was not able to take action.

Guan Yu, who was trapped in a blind spot of information asymmetry, decided to avoid the orders of military advisors from abroad and change his strategy a little.

It was also God's will that helped him. The accidental inevitable finally played a role on this day. The bombardment lasted for seven or eight days. It finally exhausted the defenders. They did not dare to show their heads on the wall when they did not see the Han army charge, so as not to be killed by stones. The earth wall finally collapsed completely, and two earth mounds with gentle slopes were left at the broken wall.

Guan Yu decided to make a quick decision to seize the opportunity: "The whole army suppresses the crossbow, Gao Shun, you can lead people to rush! As long as you can capture a section of the wall and catch some prisoners and torture them, you will understand everything!"

Gao Shun went south with Guan Yu, but he was also very uncomfortable, and he immediately wanted to try it out. He was not a person who was greedy for merit and did not spare the lives of soldiers, but today's opportunity is so rare, wouldn't it be a waste not to seize it?

Moreover, because the enemy has been numb by the only ones who have been smashed these days, he will not think that Guan Yu will suddenly attack with all his might. He also knows that even if Guan Yu breaks through this level on the ridge, there will be layers of defense on the mountain road dozens of miles behind. Therefore, those enemy generals who predicted Guan Yu's prediction will relax.

Since the Cang camp followed Liu Bei, it has only fought head-on positions in the Battle of Mianzhu, which defeated Liu Yan's central army, but has not yet fought any beautiful battles.

The only opportunity to attack the enemy was to play the role of seducing the enemy when he was trapped in the camp. He also faced the dangerous situation of Jianmen Pass, which made people unable to raise their interest in attacking. The level I faced today is so broken that it is just right to achieve a zero breakthrough!

After a few minutes of haste and chaotic turmoil, the five thousand Han troops gathered thousands of powerful crossbows, and some even climbed into the dense forests on both sides to find a position where crossbow arrows could be shot onto the wall. In order to arrange as many crossbow soldiers as possible to be within one hundred and fifty steps from the wall to form a fire density for gathering fire.

While the crossbows were intensively suppressed, the camp was ready to charge.

Because the wall collapsed severely, they didn't even need a ladder and rushed up the collapsed pile of soil.

"Shoot the arrows! Come and shoot the arrows!" Cai Fei, the chief general of the pass guard and the commander of Jianning, had been hiding in a deputy battalion hundreds of steps behind the pass in the past few days because he was afraid of being hit by a rock. He heard that the soldiers who were on guard were quickly informing the Han army to launch a charge, so he hurriedly led his team to the wall. Seeing the critical situation, he hurriedly ordered the deployment of resistance.

The border counties of the Southern Barbarians lack strong crossbows, and they generally use bows and arrows. Even the materials used for bows are not as good as those of the Qin bows in the north. There are even bamboo pieces as bow bodies.

But at the same time, the lethality of the Southern Barbarian Bow is actually not weak. The main reason is that there are many strange plants here. Things like arrow poisonous wood that are blood-sealed and sealed by the throat are specialties of Southeast Asia tropical rainforest. The soldiers of Jianning County have been in the border areas for a long time and have learned to poison arrows, so they do not expect the arrows to be strong and sharp, and the deeper they can get into.

Unfortunately, this bow and arrow, which is "light physical killing and heavy magic killing", was completely lost when facing the charge of the trapped camp for the first time.

Gao Shun's trap camp and the "quasi-stopping camps" in Guan Yu's troops that were equipped with iron armor (it depends on the combat performance that they can be officially selected into the trap camp) are all like canned iron. The light bow and soft arrows cannot even wipe the skin, so the poison is ineffective.

Many Jianning County archers shot closer to the mound that rushed into the gap, and the distance was definitely less than twenty steps, but each arrow bounced open. Only a few poisonous arrows that just hit the front door, the back of the right hand (holding a shield in the left hand and a weapon in the right hand, so the back of the left hand cannot be shot) have the effect of killing.

But after all, poisonous ejaculation takes time. Even if it is "thrown with blood", it only means that this person will die, but it is impossible to die within a few dozen seconds. Therefore, the soldiers of the camp who were shot in the back of their hands will not immediately die and block the way of their companions behind them. They do not know their dangers and still yell and rush. The last few dozen seconds or even minutes are enough to kill several enemy soldiers.

So the soldiers of the camp who were infected with poisoned arrows often did not really die of poison, but shouted that they had fought for a minute or two and felt strange that they were weak and numb, but were killed by the county soldiers with weapons because their hands and feet were not in control. However, they had already changed enough before their death.

"Madman! These iron-armored soldiers are all madmen! You all hold back!" Seeing dozens of soldiers in the gap being sharply killed by horse swords, or beheaded, or their arms were cut off shoulder-length, or they were directly cut in half, the commander Cai Fei was frightened.

He knew that this wall was no longer important, and he had to keep a useful body and continue to defend the subsequent mountain roads, so he turned around and ran very decisively.

More soldiers of the camp immediately abandoned their shields after jumping to the top of the city, and instead waved and slashed with horse-slashing swords in both hands, causing a bloody storm. When more than fifty soldiers of the camps gained a foothold, they just needed to push horizontally along the top of the wall.

Although there are nearly a thousand soldiers in Jianning County on the entire wall and thousands of reserve teams under the corner, the battle situation on the top of the wall can no longer be reversed.

"The lieutenant has run away, so let's run away too! The terrain here is too narrow, and we can't do it, so we can't do it, so don't die in vain!" Some generals who wanted to save their own direct troops quickly took action when they saw the opportunity. Anyway, Cai Fei also ran away, and there would be no military judge punishing the deserter.

And the key is that what they said is indeed known that as long as the enemy is rushed to the wall, the narrow terrain of the wall is very disadvantageous to the side with "many but not strong" forces, because if you have too many people, you cannot spread and you cannot surround the side with few but strong soldiers. It is just that the wheel battle adds fuel to the battle and kills in vain. The advantage of the pass has now turned into a disadvantage.

Since this is the case, it is better to retreat and try to defend some relatively open battlefields suitable for large corps to fight, and to give full play to the advantage of the number of people there to defeat Guan Yu in one go.

More than a thousand Jianning County soldiers quickly fled and retreated to the second camp defense line hundreds of steps away, continuing to defend with their cowardly captain.

These days, Cai Fei has been preparing for the situation that "if the wall of the gate is smashed by a new awesome trencher." So he did not ask how strong the subsequent camp would be, but the number must be large, so that Guan Yu could deploy the trencher layer by layer to disgusting.

So after trying to continue rushing to the second camp and being shot back, the camp decisively gave up the pursuit.

"We finally won the barrier! Our camp finally captured the first barrier!" Gao Shun stood on the barrier wall, and also exhaled the turbid air in his chest.

In this battle, hundreds of enemy troops were surrounded and shot on the wall. Most of them were killed after the enemy collapsed and were chased and chopped off after they were scattered.

The losses of the camp were completely within an acceptable range of only more than twenty casualties, including thirteen dead.

Among the dead, there were only four people who died in hand-to-hand combat. Nine of them were shot by poisonous arrows when they rushed into the gap in the mound. They were numb all over and were killed by the enemy. This can be seen from the fact that they were still injured by arrows.

As for the dozen wounded people, they can be treated and recuperated. Except for three or four who will be permanently disabled and retired, they can continue to fight after they are well maintained.

The enemy's crazy killing and resistance on the wall caused less than half of the deaths! Gao Shun was full of disgust for this despicable Southern Barbarian poison-tempering weapon.

"I heard that the Nanman poisonous arrow was blood-sealed and was so vicious."

Gao Shun cleaned the battlefield for a while, and Guan Yu also brought his main force to Guan Wall.

Guan Yu's purpose was very clear. He did not listen to Gao Shun's report and directly asked: "Where are the prisoners in this battle? Take all the prisoners up to see if there are any officers above the garrison commander, detain and torture them separately, and see how many troops they have gathered these days.

In addition, immediately check the mountain roads on both sides of the pass to see if Jing Yi can still send a small group of troops to harass our army's rations after our army seized the pass. After observing for three days, if we can confirm that our rations are absolutely safe, we will send a messenger back to Zhu Ti to ask why the third brother and Boya have not taken action yet."
