There were several people in Li Xun's tent that could not be argued.

"It's decided!" Lu Xiaoxian waved his hand and said to Li Xun, "No one needs to fight. At that time, Zhang Meng and I will try to go up the cliff first. After exploring the road for the back team, you will be ready to climb the mountain at any time!"

"Young Master Lu, this is a life-and-death matter!" Li Xun bit his lip, "If it really doesn't work, at worst, the brothers will fight to the death, and they will die anyway!"

"Kill out?" Lu Xiaoxian smiled bitterly, "Since Wan Guojun is planning to plot against us, how could he give you a chance to kill out?"

"Master, Wan Guojun has just dispatched troops to surround our camp. If there is any abnormal movement, they will probably do it at any time!" Speaking of this, the one-legged old servant said angrily: "What are you doing? It makes people feel depressed when you think about it!"

"Don't be discouraged first!" Lu Xiaoxian comforted Li Xun, "We are not without a chance of winning, as long as we climb up, we will win a great victory. Not to mention whether we have made contributions or not, at least we can survive!"

Speaking of this, Lu Xiaoxian subconsciously looked outside the camp. The war horses of the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were sniffing nearby, and the clanging sound of iron armor was clearly heard.

...

"Everything is ready!" Lu Xiaoxian looked around at the men in front of him and asked softly.

There were two hundred and eighty-one people standing in front of him, the only remaining soldiers in the migrant army.

"It's ready!" Two hundred and eighty-one voices gathered together, firm and determined.

The team in front was a dozen strong wanderers, each carrying a large bundle of ropes and a net of iron nails. Lu Xiaoxian wanted to lead them to the cliff and find a way for everyone.

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and insects are chirping all over the fields.

The army of wandering soldiers sneaked quietly, everyone was covered in black clothes, their weapons were wrapped tightly in black cloth, and even thin-soled fast boots were wrapped in cloth strips.

There were no lanterns or torches, and each person had ropes connected to each other to avoid getting lost.

In order to avoid attracting the attention of the rebels, the group of them circled in many circles in the dark, and finally arrived at the cliff behind the Eagle Village when the morning light was slightly dewed.

Lu Xiaoxian ordered everyone to rest in a hidden way, and he took the dozen or so people to carefully survey the climbing route.

"Damn it, it's very high! It's also very steep!" Zhang Meng looked at the steep cliff inch by inch, and couldn't help but take a breath, "The stones are so weathered that many places are loose!"

Lu Xiaoxian also raised his head and observed every crack and concave that his eyes could reach, thinking about the point of every step.

...

Before the sky knew it, it was bright, and smoke from the rebels of the Eagle Village and the soldiers of the Datang Palace were rising. Both sides were catching the time to have breakfast. When the sun was high, there would be another fatal battle.

The silence did not last long. Before the smoke from the cooking stove was dissipated, the sound of earth-shaking cannons sounded from the camp of the government soldiers, and the government soldiers began to launch a fierce attack.

They fought with the rebel soldiers in waves, and each charge was extremely heroic. The steep and narrow mountain road in front of the Eagle Village was like a black hole that devoured life, chewing the tenacious soldiers on both sides to pieces...

On the watchtower behind the village gate, Mr. Wang was watching the battle expressionlessly.

Although the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty suffered heavy losses in the past few days, they were still full of fighting spirit. The soldiers in front fell down, while the ones in the back stepped on the bodies without hesitation.

As the village gate was in a tight spot, Mr. Wang had to frequently mobilize the reserve troops to replace the exhausted front-line defenders. The battle has entered a critical moment, and whoever can grit his teeth and persevere until the end will win.

Seeing that the attack was so fierce today, he expected to know that the other party must have invested a lot of money and was ready to make a desperate bet. Unfortunately, the right time, place and people are on the side of the rebels. No matter how brave and good at fighting, the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were still helpless.

...

The sound of killings like mountains and cracks in front of the Eagle Village came to the ears of the flowing soldiers lurking under the cliff behind the Eagle Village. It was so clear that they seemed to be in the battlefield.

Li Xun, Xie Yunxuan, Yang Si and others stared at Lu Xiaoxian, Zhang Meng and the dozen selected wanderers. They were like geckos with tight muscles, using hands and feet, clinging to the steep cliff, climbing up step by step, only to disappear behind the protruding boulder...

The crisp sound of knocking came from somewhere on the cliff. Li Xun let out a long breath, Xie Yunxuan and Yang Si were also sweating profusely.

"Ding Ding Ding", every once in a while, there was a sound of knocking, which was Lu Xiaoxian and the others nailing iron nails on the stone wall.

Gradually, the knocking sound became smaller and smaller, and finally it was impossible to hear it.

Everyone under the cliff was looking up and searching carefully. No one could see anything except the dazzling sunshine cast from the top of the cliff. No one could help Lu Xiaoxian and the others. Now, nothing could be done except waiting!

...

At noon, the sun is dazzling and the earth is surging.

The attacking soldiers of the Tang Dynasty left behind corpses on the ground and retreated helplessly. The flag of retreating that was rolled inward in the camp also became weak, and the swords and guns in front of the formation were helplessly reflected the dry light in the sun.

Both sides stopped again and each took a rest.

"Before the sun sets, they will definitely organize another fierce attack!" Mr. Wang said to the rebel generals beside him, "Now the sun is shining on their heads, and the dazzling sunshine will make the oncoming soldiers unable to open their eyes!"

The rebel generals nodded repeatedly, and they admired Mr. Wang so much.

It was this inconspicuous thin old man who defeated the elite Tang regular army again and again. If he had not had his strategic planning and command, let alone fighting against the Tang Dynasty's soldiers, they would probably not even have the courage to face it, and the village would have been broken long ago.

Mr. Wang continued to cheer the rebel generals and said, "In the past few days, although the opponent has suffered a lot of casualties, the main force has not been damaged at all, and his sharpness has not been wiped out. We must consume them bit by bit, so that every wound they have to be exhausted, and their fighting spirit will be wiped out bit by bit until they are exhausted, and the final victory will definitely belong to us!"

...

On the cliff behind the Eagle Village, a string of wire-connected iron nails with small white cloth strips are stubbornly extending upwards.

Under the cliff, more than 200 soldiers of the army looked up at the cliff, and their eyes were so sharp that their tears flowed through the sun.

A thin rope tied with a small stone slid down the cliff wall. Li Xun pounced on it and carefully looked at the knot.

The knot is used to convey messages. Xie Yunxuan glanced at the knot and couldn't help but sigh: "They also want iron nails, which is not enough! The ropes and iron nails have been sent six times. Judging from the number they used, they should have climbed half of them!"

Li Xun frowned: "Only half of it! They didn't eat anything or drink a sip of water! If the sun sets and has not reached the top and it is too late, there is nothing we can do about it!"

Several soldiers of the migrant soldiers were tying iron nails to the thin rope. Yang Si waved his hand to stop them: "Don't be anxious, send water and cakes first! They can't hold on if they don't let them replenish some energy!"
