Although the first round of attacks could be said to have barely filled in the river channel dug by Lu Xun, they suffered a lot of losses. Only one-tenth of the soldiers who were responsible for filling the ditch came back, and most of them were injured to varying degrees. According to rough statistics, Suddenly, Liu Bei's army lost a total of three thousand troops and horses in this battle, and many civilians were injured by rolling logs, which became a burden to them.
Looking at the injuries lying on the ground, Sun Qianqian was anxious and had no choice. When he retreated from Jiangzhou, he was too hasty and almost threw away all the baggage. Suddenly there were so many wounded people that it was difficult to receive treatment at one time. The person in charge of injuries and illnesses The medical officer reported to Sun Qian: "Sir, if there were no medicinal materials, not many of them would survive!" Sun Qian closed his eyes and shook his head, turned around slowly, and left without saying a word.
Zhuge Liang was still checking the map in the camp. He had no choice. Although he was very ill, he had something on his mind and had to struggle to get up. According to estimates, it would take three days to travel day and night from Yuejun to Jiangzhou. If he traveled from Yuejun to Jiangzhou, Juan went straight to Chengdu. The cavalry only lasted for more than ten days, and the infantry was slightly slower for thirty days. Based on this calculation, as soon as he left, General Long Fei, Huang Zhong, and Xu Chu arrived. And it took him a long time to get from Jiangzhou to Chengdu. Twenty days. All in all, we can only delay three to five days in Yaozigou. If we still can't pass within three to five days, Chengdu will be in danger.
Ma Liang raised the curtain: "Military advisor, there is news from Meng Da that there is no movement in Jiangzhou City. Gao Shun and others seem unwilling to pursue us!"
"Oh?" Zhuge Liang also fell into deep thought at this time. If Long Fei wanted to attack Chengdu, Gao Shun had better contain himself in Jiangzhou, but at this time he stood still. What was his plan? As a world-class leader Even though Zhuge Liang is a wise man, there are times when he cannot understand.
Mi Zhu said: "It's a good idea if you don't come. We can take this opportunity to quickly capture Yaozigou and then return to Chengdu to aid!"
Ma Liang glanced at him: "Capture Yaozigou? That's easy to say. Our soldiers have been fighting continuously and their morale is low. How can we attack? What's more, Lu Xun is very cunning. His best thing is to cut off people's escape routes. When he was in Wuguan We also used this move to capture brothers Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Dun." Ma Liang glanced at Zhuge Liang and said, "Now that we have no soldiers and generals, how can we attack?"
Mi Zhu said: "Otherwise, Chengdu will be captured by Long Fei, and Liu Bei will be captured by then. Wouldn't it be over for us to establish our foothold in Yizhou? How can the plan set by the Lord to dominate Yizhou and watch all the heroes be realized?"
"At this time, everything is no longer under the control of the Lord!" Ma Liang looked down upon Mi Zhu the most. Unexpectedly, Mi Zhu actually talked back and immediately became angry: "You are a profiteer from Xuzhou who has done all kinds of evil. What qualifications do you have to be like me?" Speak? Where is the Lord? Does He know our current situation?"
"Even if we don't know, we have to break through Lu Xun immediately and rush to help Chengdu!" Mi Zhu didn't want to let it go today, which surprised everyone and made them confused for a while.
"Pah!" Zhuge Liang slapped the tables, and Ma Liang and Mi Zhu suddenly became quiet. Looking at Ma Liang and Mi Zhu, who were blushing and thick-necked, Zhuge Liang said softly for the first time: "You two are my right-hand men. No one wants to see things reach this level! Now that things have happened, we must share the joys and sorrows and unite to face the crisis at hand!"
Zhuge Liang patted Ma Liang on the shoulder: "It is true that our strength is greatly reduced now, but we still have strong backing. It does not necessarily mean we lose. Pass my military order to gather all the troops and horses to start attacking immediately. We must break through the Yaozi Valley within three days."
!”
War drums were beating and people were shouting. On the road under Yaozigou, Liu Bei's army began to gather urgently. The 40,000 soldiers and horses were not used at the gate of Jiangzhou City. Today they will show off their skills here. The leader, General Lei Tong, marched for Yizhou.
The surrendered general, this man was tall and round, with a big hammer in his hand. He was once known as the most fierce general in Yizhou. When Liu Bei attacked Yizhou, he was deeply attached to Taishi Ci because he broke his hammer with a halberd.
He was so impressed that he volunteered to follow Taishi Ci. Taishi Ci died in battle, and he became a capable general for these two men.
"Listen to me above! If you have the ability, come out and fight Grandpa for three hundred rounds!" Lei Tong stood on the edge of the dug waterway. He knew that if he walked forward, he would be in the range of the opponent's bow and arrow. Although he was a little rough, he was not reckless.
After shouting for a long time, there was no response from the people above. Listening to the sound of war drums behind him, which sounded like a reminder, Lei Tongji pointed his sledgehammer and ordered an attack on the city.
The soldiers shouted and rushed towards Lu Xun's camp. Lu Xun could see clearly that when the first command flag was lowered, arrows flying in the sky came towards him; when the second command flag was lowered, the sky was filled with arrows and rolling logs, and behind the logs
There were also huge rocks. The gentle slope gave these things time to accelerate, and the road was not wide. Although many of them rolled into the Dianjiang River next to it, most of them still rolled down, sweeping Liu Beijun's
The soldiers smashed down hard.
Lei Tong hit a log with a hammer, knocking the log aside. Just when he was secretly happy, another log came towards him. "Bang!" Another hammer hit, and the second log was knocked aside.
The log flew away, but the third log came so fast that Thunder Copper didn't even have time to react. It almost came down right next to the second log. Lei Copper couldn't avoid it and was hit hard by the log.
Chest.
The powerful impact made Lei Tong almost vomit blood. Fortunately, he was sitting on a horse. The other end of the log bumped on the ground and fell into the Dian River. Lei Tong hurriedly reached out to cover his chest.
When he was about to turn his head, a log rushed towards his face. Lei Tong was caught off guard, and the log hit him hard on his head. Lei Tong felt like the world was spinning, his ears were buzzing, and all the sounds next to him were inaudible.
Watching the brothers staggering around among the jumping logs, some had their breasts burst, and some covered their chests and vomited blood. And there were logs rolling down the mountain, and each one was bigger than the other.
Thicker than a stick.
A soldier with bleeding from all his orifices fell beside Lei Tong, looking at him with desperate eyes, his mouth kept moving, and there was no sound: "What? Come on! Don't stop!"
No matter what it is, even the shield wall of the Sword and Shield Man City can't withstand the impact of the logs. But they can't retreat. Ma Liang is holding a knife and leading the war team behind them. Anyone who takes a step back will immediately have a different head.
The risk was high. The soldiers had no choice but to bite the bullet and raise their upper lips. Fortunately, the number of logs coming down from the top decreased until finally there was no one left.
"Kill...! Liu Beijun regained his vitality, crawled out from the pile of dead people and rushed upward for the second time, stepping on the corpses of his own people, and the underground floor of his house made a squeaking sound, as if he had stepped on a pond.
Lu Xun was not in a hurry, he was carefully prepared. As the third command flag fell, a new thing appeared in the Dragon Army's camp. Liu Beijun, who had already rushed to the gate of the camp, was stunned. None of them had ever seen such a weapon. A tall wooden wall appeared in front of them, with rows of sharpened wood on the outside, pointing straight at them.
"What is that?" Mi Zhu had never seen such a thing before.
Zhuge Liang's expression turned ugly and his chest heaved: "How could it be this thing? Isn't it said that it has been lost?"
"Do you know the military advisor?"
"According to legend, during the reign of Emperor Wu, General Wei Qing was ordered to attack the Huns, but the Huns were fond of riding horses and came and went like the wind, constantly harassing our marching group! Wei Qing invented a cart with a scarf and a cover, covering the surrounding area with a large shield, and the soldiers hid in the area. If you hold out your sword, spear, sword and halberd, the Huns cavalry will not be able to get close. It is called a steel chariot!" After Zhuge Liang finished speaking, he coughed repeatedly, and Mi Zhu hurriedly stroked his back to help him breathe.
Zhuge Liang finished coughing and gasped: "I heard that too, but I didn't expect that someone in Long Fei's army not only knew about it, but also made it! This thing blocks the road and makes it difficult for our army to move!"
Sun Qiandao: "Commander, don't be anxious. I think this thing is made of wood. As long as we attack it with fire, we can break it!"
As the Wuhan Iron and Steel vehicle moved forward little by little, the bustling Liu Beijun who gathered on the small road were driven down the mountain one after another. The people behind wanted to go up, and the people above wanted to get down. You pushed me and squeezed, and a congestion soon formed. Wuhan Iron and Steel Co., Ltd. Wherever the vehicle passed, even the corpses on the ground were shoveled up, and the sharp wood pierced the crowded soldiers. Within a short distance of a hundred steps, the Wuhan Iron and Steel vehicle was already covered with bones, and corpses were hung on the On the car, blood dripped from the top and mixed with the blood of the soldiers below to form a gurgling stream.
Quiet! Deadly quiet, even the wind stopped. The body hanging on the car swayed slightly back and forth, and few people could see the miserable sight. Many people turned around and vomited. Ma Liang opened his teeth The bite made a rattling sound: "Lu Xun, if I don't kill you, it's hard to eliminate the hatred in my heart!" Ma Liang picked up his sword and shouted loudly: "Brothers! Come with me..."
Finally, Sun Qian found some kerosene. He sent those who dared to die to rush to the Wuhan Iron and Steel Car and threw the kerosene in their hands at the Wuhan Iron and Steel Car. Although it was not ideal, it was still possible to start a fire. Just a few rockets were fired, and puffs of black smoke were burning, igniting the kerosene in an instant, and the bodies outside Wu Gang's car were burning. The raging fire began to rage unbridled, and the Wuhan Iron and Steel truck was surrounded. Those hanging on the Above, the soldiers who had not yet expired were burned by the fire, and they let out heart-piercing screams, which made people feel particularly uncomfortable.
Lu Xun shook his head: "This group of people really has a way! Okay, let everyone take a rest. They won't come up until the fire is extinguished!"
Zhuge Liang vomited blood for the third time. When Sun Qian was about to set the fire, he wanted to stop it. But seeing the soldiers being strangled continuously, he couldn't care less. When Sun Qian actually lit the fire, he regretted it, knowing that it was Others were trying to delay the attack, but he had to jump in. What kind of person was the Dragon Army guard above Yaozigou? Zhuge Liang had the urge to see him.
