The time goes back to two hours ago, when 10,000 Shangshui soldiers, led by General Wu Ji, took advantage of the smoke from Yishan Mountain and the cover of autumn rain, and followed the army with eight wells and carriages along the outside of Piluo Pass.

As they slowly moved towards the pass, Zhao Hongrun led Qu Cheng, Yan Mo and other generals of the Yanling Army. Under the protection of the Zongwei and the Qingya people, they came to the top of a mountain in Wangwu Mountain and climbed up to look into the distance.
The sneak attack at Pi Lao Pass.
It has to be said that standing on the top of a mountain in Wangwu Mountain, Qu Cheng, Yan Mo and other generals were a little uneasy. After all, Wangwu Mountain was also a battlefield. So far, the Shang Shui Army had invested three thousand troops in this mountain mausoleum.
Famous soldiers and even deputy general Nanmen Chi were sent here.
On the opposite side, Han General Jin Fu's army also dispatched the heroic general Qing Yao and deployed no less than 4,000 troops in this mountainous area.
Therefore, although this mountainous area seems to be extremely quiet, in fact, it is a battlefield with a total of 7,000 people.
Since it was a battlefield, there was naturally danger. Therefore, when King Su Zhao Hongrun proposed to observe the battle in person at Wangwu Mountain, both the generals of the Yanling Army and the clan guards strongly opposed it.
It's a pity that the stubbornness of a certain King Su is well known. As long as His Highness makes a decision, even ten cows can't be pulled back. Therefore, the generals of the Yanling Army and the clan guards have no choice but to follow His Highness.
, personally guard the left and right.
Looking at the Pilao Pass in the distance from the current position and height of Zhao Hongrun and others, that pass is really small, far inferior to the Chenggao Pass and Fenxing Fortress of the Wei State, let alone Fuli of the Chu State.
Comparable to plug.
But we have to admit that the location of Pi Lao Pass is really clever. The narrow winding road on the west side of the pass stretches for several miles, which basically eliminates the possibility of the Wei army relying on its superior strength to capture Pi Lao Pass.
"Report! There are no traces of Korean troops in the nearby five miles of mountains and forests."
"Report! There are traces of Korean troops in the mountains twelve miles east, and Xiang Li has been intercepted by thousands of people."
66 Continuously, many green crows traveled to and from this mountain, reporting to Zhao Hongrun and others the traces of the Korean army in the Wangwu Mountain area.
It has to be said that at the same time that the Shang Shui Army was preparing to attack Pilao Pass, there was also fighting on Wangwu Mountain, but it did not attract the attention of Zhao Hongrun and others.
After all, today's big drama is the sneak attack on Pi Lao Pass by 10,000 Shang Shui soldiers led by Wu Ji himself with the help of mist and rain.
As long as Wu Ji could successfully conquer Pilao Pass, the Korean soldiers on Wangwu Mountain would become insignificant.
The autumn rain is still falling continuously.
Both Zhao Hongrun and everyone else present were standing in the rain wearing raincoats and bamboo hats, staring intently in the direction of Pi Lao Pass, waiting for the upcoming surprise attack.
"The army under General Wu Ji should be approaching Pi Lao Pass soon, right?" Gong Yesheng, the deputy general of Yanling Army, estimated the distance of Wu Ji's army and said with a chuckle: "So far, Pi Lao Pass has not yet reached Pilao Pass."
If there is the slightest movement, hey, maybe that Jin Bai is still lying on the bed and soundly asleep at this moment."
Hearing this, the generals of the Yanling Army present laughed knowingly.
To be fair, Gong Yesheng did not mean to ridicule Han General Jin Bo as an enemy general when he said this. After all, Jin Bo had no intention of looking down on Wei Gongzi Ji Run. Therefore, after learning that Zhao Hongrun led his army to Tang County,
After planning to attack his Pi Lao Pass, Jin Biao lived and ate in the gate building for the past few days, unlike some incompetent mediocre generals.
"This is a clever plan by His Highness." Yan Mo, another deputy general of the Yanling Army, said with a smile: "The smoke from the arson in Yishan Mountain was blown by the westerly wind to Pilao Pass, and the autumn rain covered it up.
There was quite a noise. Even if the Shang navy sneaked into Piluo Pass without the Korean army knowing anything about it, I wouldn't be surprised." As he spoke, he added another sentence: "What's more, there are green crows clearing the way for Shang.
If the naval forces are unable to successfully attack the Pi Lao Pass under such circumstances, even if they deal with the Korean sentries in the narrow passage, the Shang navy will really be unworthy of their title."
Hearing this, the generals of the nearby Yanling Army nodded in agreement: Well, it is all the credit of His Highness King Su and the Green Crows, and has nothing to do with the Shangshui Army.
All in all, in the eyes of the generals of the Yanling Army, it was only right that the Shang Shui Army successfully attacked Pilao Pass this time. On the contrary, if it could not do so, it would be due to the incompetence of the Shang Shui Army.
It’s no wonder that the Yanling army and generals were extremely harsh on the Shangshui Army. After all, the fiefdom of King Su Zhao Hongrun was Shangshui County. Therefore, when the Wei people in China mentioned the army of Shangshui County, the first thing they thought of was the Shangshui Army.
Next is the Yanling Army.
Because of this, the Yanling Army had undeniable resentment towards the Shang Shui Army, so it was quite harsh on the latter.
In short, in the eyes of the Yanling Army soldiers and generals, since the Shangshui Army bears the name of Shangshui, it is right even if it does well, otherwise it is incompetent.
Take today's surprise attack on Pilao Pass as an example. The Yanling Army can also do it. Do they have to rely on the Shang Shui Army?
As a result, the generals of the Yanling Army buried the Shang Shui Army for a while as usual, and made fun of the Shang Shui Army as if they were worthless.
And just when the generals of the Yanling Army were happily annihilating the Shang Navy, suddenly there was a "dang-dang-dang-dang" sound in the distance, which was the sound of an alarm bell.
Hearing this commotion, the generals of the Yanling Army stopped joking and looked at Pi Lao Pass in the distance with concentration.
After all, they are competitors with the Shang Shui Army, but from a big perspective, they certainly hope that the Shang Shui Army can successfully conquer Pi Lao Pass with this action, although they will never admit that it was the Shang Shui Army's contribution afterwards.
"The surprise attack was successful, but the Korean army did not react in time."
As one of the main personnel who had just eliminated the Shang Navy, Yan Mo, the deputy general of the Yanling Army, said with a somewhat excited tone.
Hearing this, the nearby generals of the Yanling Army also showed expressions that seemed to be relieved. Of course, there was inevitably a trace of jealousy on their faces.
How can you not be jealous?
With the help of His Highness King Su's ingenious plan, the Shang Shui Army made a surprise attack on Pilao Pass and transported several wells and carriages to Pilao Pass without anyone noticing. At this time, most of the Korean soldiers were still in the barracks inside the pass.
Rest.
In this situation of seizing the upper hand, if the Shang Shui Army still misses the good opportunity, then in the eyes of the generals of the Yanling Army, Wu Ji and other generals of the Shang Shui Army can completely commit suicide and apologize.
Sure enough, in the ensuing battle, the Shangshui Army under the Piluo Pass in the distance burst out with strong combat power and once suppressed the Korean soldiers at the pass. This made the generals of the Yanling Army both happy and a little depressed.
What is gratifying is that Pi Lao Pass is about to be breached; what is depressing is that this feat belongs to the Shang Shui Army, not their Yanling Army.
"In a few hours, His Highness may be able to celebrate Wu Ji's victory at Pi Lao Pass." Yan Mo said to Zhao Hongrun with a smile.
Zhao Hongrun smiled slightly, and then said seriously: "It's too early to say this now. Don't forget, the Korean general Jin Pao opposite is one of the so-called ten tycoons of Beiyuan."
Yan Mo chuckled when he heard this. He didn't think that under such circumstances, the Korean army at Pi Lao Pass would have a chance to recover from their disadvantage.
But at this moment, Zongwei Lu Mu exclaimed: "What's going on? The Shang Shui Army's well carriage caught fire?"
What?!
The faces of everyone watching the battle suddenly changed, and they stared in the direction of Pi Laoguan.
Zhao Hongrun also lowered his head and peered through the telescope that had been placed in advance to peek at the situation outside the prison gate in the distance.
He vaguely saw a group of cavalry rushing out of Pi Lao Pass and trying to set fire to the Jinglan chariot of the Shang Shui Army.
Jin Mao's timing to grab the ground was quite accurate.
Zhao Hongrun frowned.
With the help of the telescope, he could see that the six well-mounted carriages of the Shang Shui Army had set up the hanging boards on the wall, so that most of the Wei soldiers turned their attention to the well-mounted carriages and were lining up.
, prepare to climb up the wall with the help of the spiral staircase inside the jinglan car.
At this moment, a cavalry team rushed out of Pilao Pass.
Because they were far apart, Zhao Hongrun couldn't see the Korean cavalry team even with the help of telescopes. The horses were covered with earthen jars filled with kerosene. Therefore, he wondered whether the cavalry team passed through.
How to set fire to a well?
After all, the autumn rain is still continuing right now, and it is not that easy to light a well car that is soaked by the rain.
Use oil? Well, it seems that I brought kerosene.
Zhao Hongrun observed it for a while, and judged from the intensity of the fire on the well carriage in the distance that the Korean cavalry should be carrying kerosene.
And judging from the fire spreading on Guanxia Flat, it can be inferred that the amount of kerosene is quite large.
"Is it two seats? Three seats?"
Zongwei Zhou Pu frowned and said.
However, during the time when the incense sticks were being used, all six wells and carts caught fire.
Watching this scene from a distance, the generals of the Yanling Army looked at each other. Although they had just wiped out the Shang Navy, this did not mean that they hoped that the Shang Navy would lose the battle. After all, they were both Wei armies and both belonged to Su.
The royal party and the Shangshui Army were defeated. Did the Yanling Army lose face?
"Wu Ji is too careless!" Yan Ling Army deputy general Yan Mo frowned and said: "What is he thinking? Even the Korean army can burn six wells and carriages?!"
"He seeks stability too much." Yanling Army's 3,000-man general Hua Yu frowned and said, "This is only the second wave of offensive. According to my guess, he may have invested less than 2,000 infantry, but still has at least 5,000 troops at his disposal.
In the rear. If he had asked these people to press forward early, the cavalry team would not be able to charge out at all!"
"You can't say that." Yanling Army Deputy General Gong Yesheng shook his head and said: "The narrow terrain in front of Pilao Pass cannot accommodate so many soldiers. There are six wells and carriages, plus the thousands of first climbers from the ladder troops.
Soldiers, this place is already overcrowded. What are you sending more soldiers to do? Holding up their shields and staring at each other at the gate?"
After hearing this, Hua Yu retorted: "Just now, the Jinglan chariot has been set up on the wall. A large number of Shangshui soldiers gathered around the Jinglan chariot, so much so that they neglected to guard against the closed wall. Only then were they attacked by the Korean cavalry.
It was a command error to catch the flaw, Wu Ji should have sent out another thousand-man team at that time."
"If it were you, would you send more soldiers at that time? Just to block the door?" Gongye Sheng asked calmly.
Hua Yu opened his mouth but stopped talking.
After all, anyone can say nice things. If he were really put in Wu Ji's position, he would most likely not send more troops because it is unnecessary.
Who knew that a cavalry team would suddenly rush out of Pilao Pass and burn down the six wells and chariots of the merchant navy at the risk of wiping out the entire army?
This mountain top suddenly became deathly silent.
Who would have thought that the Shang Shui Army actually lost this surprise attack that they thought they would win.
