Chi Youtang who was guarding the Autumn Equinox Ridge was destroyed, and Xiang Qu's troops advanced into Daze Mountain. The northwest corner of the map was all lit up, and communication with Xiang Yan's camp in the northeast corner was opened. However, the distance was a bit far, and it was quite time-consuming to go back and forth.
After Xiang Qu defeated Chi Youtang, he competed with Tian Hu hiding in the mountains and forests. He wanted to avenge Zhong Limiao, but gave up the idea of quickly attacking the back of Gonggong Hall.
If this matter reached Xiang Yan, he would definitely be scolded by his father and then ordered to attack Bailuyan. However, due to communication delays, this did not happen for the time being.
In Bailuyan, the battle between Long Yibu and Gonggong Tang Tianpei was fought without any splash.
The terrain of Bailuyan is too advantageous for the defenders. There is a narrow passage that the army cannot deploy, and there are rocks on both sides. Tian Pei camped behind the passage and deployed defenses on the mountains on both sides. Long Yi led his army
On the first day I came here, I lost my mind about being better than Bailuyan.
He chose a location to set up camp and gathered his men to discuss, "There are capable people among the grass bandits. We will camp on the road and set up defenses on the mountain. Our army will not be able to advance. How should we attack Bailuyan?"
Several generals looked at each other, frowning and thinking, but there was no good solution.
"This arrangement of grass bandits is really tricky, why not try first to see if you can provoke the enemy."
"Well, let's try it first."
Long Yi asked his sergeants to shout and curse at the camp every day. Gonggongtang was not mute. He also built a high platform to scold the Chu army, but he never left the camp to fight in the field.
Several days passed, but there was still no fighting between the two sides. Several generals of the Chu army could no longer bear it.
"If this continues, our army has thought that Bailuyan will have to wait until the year of the monkey and the moon of the horse?"
"General, why don't we let the soldiers attack by force?"
"Yes, if you keep holding it in like this, the soldiers will be prone to problems."
Long Yi did not listen to their insistence on attacking by force, but thought of a plan, "I have a way. Tomorrow you will lead your troops to tentatively attack the hillsides on both sides to make it more obvious. In the future, you will try harder to test.
On the third day, he led his army to pretend to attack both sides.
Seeing that our army has dispatched most of its troops to attack the mountain and that the camp is empty, the grassroots bandits will not miss the opportunity to destroy our camp. If I set up an ambush in the camp, I can annihilate the incoming enemy.
If the grass bandits go from three pavilions to one pavilion, Bailu Rock will no longer be difficult to break."
When several people heard this, they all praised "General's wisdom."
Soon, two days passed in the Chu army's tentative attack. The situation Long Yi imagined appeared in Gonggong Hall.
"Hall Master, the Chu army's provocation has been obvious in the past two days. Today is more fierce than yesterday. I'm afraid they will attack by force soon."
"The Chu army is worthy of being elite, and they are really capable of fighting. If Commander Bai Tu hadn't asked us to camp like this, I'm afraid we would have been doomed in one field battle."
"Hey, brother, there is no need to destroy your prestige. The Chu army wants to attack by force, but Long Yi may not be able to defeat it even if he sends out all his troops. He doesn't want it in his hometown? Ah? Hahaha~"
"Yes, if he sends out his army, we will rob the camp and take away his hometown!"
"Hahaha~"
Tian Pei watched his brothers defeat the Chu army that had been attacking for two consecutive days, but he did not dampen their spirits at this time. He just remembered Bai Tu's advice: Defending is victory.
On the third day, the Chu army seemed to be out in full force, armed with a large number of weapons and equipment, ready to attack with all their might.
Several leaders of Gonggongtang asked Tian Pei to fight:
"Hall Master, let me burn down that bastard Long Yi's hometown!"
"Master, I'm going!"
"Master, let me go."
Tian Pei immediately held his sword and scolded them, and then roared: "Shut up, all of you! No one is allowed to fight without my order!"
"No, boss, why, what a good opportunity this is?"
"That's right, boss."
Several men expressed their grievances.
Tian Pei's face became a little calmer, "You don't want to fight even if you call me grandpa. What is our mission?"
"Guard Bailuyan~"
"Guard the Bailu Rock."
Okay, I haven't forgotten the mission yet.
He nodded, "Yes, defend Bailu Rock. That Long Yi wants to attack by force. Even if we attack him, he will lose at least 10,000 people with 15,000 men. We, Gonggongtang, can be considered as fulfilling our mission and working for other brothers in the farm family."
Enough enemies died.
Now you have to lead an attack. If he has an ambush, your lives will be in vain. Then Long Yi can capture Bailuyan at a small price. We, Gonggongtang, are the sinners of the peasant family!"
"Maybe he didn't have an ambush..."
"By pulling out the Longyi camp, he only lost food and supplies, and his military strength will not be greatly damaged. When the next batch of food and grass arrives, he can continue to confront me. In the end, we still have to defend, so why risk being ambushed?
Risk taking the initiative?”
"It's better to burn down the camp and vent the bad breath."
Tian Pei was furious, pointed at the person who spoke, and spat far away, "Now is a war, can it be compared with the battle of spirits in the Jianghu?! Our lives are connected with those of all the 100,000 brothers in the farmer's family. We are here
If something goes wrong, Chiyoutang and Siyuetang will be destroyed together, fifty thousand people!
If anyone talks too much, I will ask him to sink into the pond to drink water, and then pull him up when he is full. Do you hear that?"
Everyone took a breath and quickly clasped their fists, "I understand, Hall Master."
So Gonggongtang defended for a whole day, the Chu army attacked for a whole day, and Long Yi also laid an ambush in the camp for a whole day. In the end, the entire battle situation did not change at all.
"Is this Gonggong Hall dedicated to a turtle? Is there anyone like him who fights like this? He doesn't even take action when he has such a good opportunity?!"
Long Yi lost his temper in the Chinese army camp, and several of his men were helpless.
"General, the casualties in the storm are too high. If we take Gonggongtang, we are afraid that the casualties will be more than 9,000."
"No, how can I, a soldier of the Tenglong Legion, exchange my life with these mud-legged people? First stick to the camp, and I will think of another way. You go down."
"promise."
In the days that followed, the two sides returned to a strange tacit understanding. Gonggongtang responded to all the Chu army's provocations, and no one started to fight even though he was the king of words.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The scouts sent by Long Yi also explored the nearby terrain and discovered that there was something unusual about Frostfall Ridge.
On this day, the scout who reported back had a little problem.
"Report to General, a scout team in the direction of Frostfall Ridge has not returned today."
Long Yi suddenly became alert. The farmer was a disciple of Jianghu. He had not encountered any interceptions or ambushes in the jungle during his journey. Now that the scout was unexpectedly surprised, he must have found some important place.
"Frostfall Ridge to the east...what's the terrain like?"
"This is the map that the scout teams drew up today. There is a road leading eastward in Frostfall Ridge, but I don't know where it leads. The scout teams that have not returned followed this road to explore."
"east……"
He looked at the smoke in the southeast direction and roughly judged the location of Longhu Camp. To the north of Longhu Camp was Siyue Hall, and further to the north was——
"Frostfall Ridge! Come, mobilize your troops, and come with me to explore Frostfall Ridge."
Long Yi stood up, mounted his horse, and led a group of cavalry out of the camp to the east.
In Shuangjian Ridge, Liu Ji and some Siyue Hall disciples have been hiding for a long time. They rely on the mountains to eat, there are not many people, and they live quite comfortably.
Liu Jizheng held a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth, leaning against the tree trunk and gently baring his teeth. The tail of the grass swayed.
Suddenly a figure appeared like a monkey and whispered with suppressed excitement, "Brother Liu Ji, didn't we kill a group of scouts? The man named Long Yi sent people here again. I saw a group of horses on horseback from a distance.
of."
"A horseman?!" Liu Ji suddenly became energetic, put the scabbard on his waist, and shouted from behind: "Here comes the work, brothers. After these days, this Long Yi has finally found our place."
The disciples of Siyuetang who had been holed up for many days cheered up.
"Yeah, let's wait for a while."
"Hey, let's give him a head-on blow!"
"Brother Liu Ji, what should we do?"
Liu Ji first asked the person who came back to report the news, "Monkey, how many people can you see on the other side?"
"Not much, just a few dozen."
As soon as the one who was called Monkey finished speaking, the disciples burst out laughing.
"Haha, dozens of horses? Let's eat him!"
"Yes, eat him."
Liu Ji clapped his hands and said, "Okay, let's do it. But we have to be prepared."
