"Brother." Ji Yuan sat in the camp and said, "We have an army of 200,000. Even with a pile of heads, we can bury Shili Town. Why are we still hesitating?"
"Era, Qing Feng was defeated because we didn't understand the situation. We can't repeat the same mistakes." Ji Ning smiled lightly and said: "Although there are more than 200,000 troops, they cannot withstand several battles. Besides, the lives of brothers are also life.
"
Ji Yuan nodded: "Everything is at the command of my elder brother."
"Alas, King Chu has changed his mind. This is something unexpected." Ji Ning sighed and said, "However, with an army of 200,000, there is no problem in taking over Youzhou City."
"Brother, what's your plan?" Ji Yuan asked hurriedly.
"Don't worry." Ji Ning smiled and said: "As you said, Shili Town can be buried with human heads, and a mere Youzhou City is certainly not a problem."
"Yes!" Ji Yuan nodded.
In terms of talent, the two brothers of the Ji family cannot compare with Qing Feng; in terms of military ability, they are even worse than Qing Feng.
After briefly understanding the surrounding terrain, Ning began to attack the canyon pass.
It was originally planned to be a tentative attack.
Unexpectedly, the Wu soldiers guarding the canyon pass abandoned more than a thousand corpses and fled in despair.
So much so that Ji Ning couldn't help but exclaimed: "Isn't this too simple? I, Qing Feng, the general of Zhao State, lost his troops here and was captured by Wu State? Isn't this too incredible?"
"Indeed!" Ji Yuan nodded.
"It seems that we will be able to capture Youzhou City soon." Ning took a deep breath.
To capture the Canyon Pass, it only cost 3,000 lives. Compared to the 200,000 troops, these 3,000 lives were not worth mentioning. Moreover, as long as the Canyon Pass was captured, the road to Youzhou City would be basically the same.
It's a long drive up there.
"Brother, shouldn't we also be more careful?" Ji Yuan advised.
"Why?" Ji Ning asked.
"Qingfeng lost the lives of countless soldiers in this canyon, but we captured it so easily. Is there any fraud?" Ji Yuan asked doubtfully.
"Hmph, how can Qing Feng's talents be compared with those of our two brothers?" Ji Ning smiled disdainfully and said: "Besides, the battle between Qing Feng and Wu State has already severely damaged the vitality of Wu State, so this time we can be considered
I picked one up ready-made. So, we still have to thank Qing Feng."
"What Brother said seems to make sense." Ji Yuan nodded.
"Okay, next, we should take over Shili Town." Ji Ning waved.
Send troops overnight.
On the way to Canyon Pass, a lot of wood was piled up, some of which were made into fences, in an attempt to block the Zhao army.
Ji Ning sneered: "The people of Wu are so naive, they think they can block our way forward with some wood."
"Yes." Ji Yuan nodded and said, "They are too naive."
Along the way, countless pieces of wood were piled up.
At this time, he was in the coach's camp in Shili Town.
Guo Yi and his son sat together, along with several generals.
"Father, according to your plan, Canyon Pass has been abandoned." Guo Nian said.
"Old man, is this too risky?" the deputy general asked.
"Don't worry, we will definitely succeed this time." Guo Yi squinted his eyes.
At this time, a messenger came: "Master, General Liu Han and others are already in place."
"Very good." Guo Nian nodded.
Guo Yi smiled and said: "Where have the troops of the Ji brothers gone?"
"They have entered Canyon Pass, and the vanguard troops are heading straight towards Shili Town." said a deputy general.
"Then let General Chen Mo fight." Guo Yi smiled and said, "In this way, they will never believe that there will be a trap."
"Yes!" Guo Nian nodded.
Then, a lieutenant led 20,000 people to meet the enemy.
Ji Ning was still a little skeptical at first, because this journey was so smooth that he even felt a little weird.
However, when the soldiers from Shili Town attacked, he immediately put all worries behind him.
"Order the vanguard troops to meet the enemy." Ji Ning shouted.
"Yes!" the messenger immediately issued the order.
After speaking, Ji Ning continued: "Let the follow-up troops speed up their advance. They must pass through the Canyon Pass tonight and capture Shili Town before dawn tomorrow."
"Yes!" Ji Yuan nodded.
It was originally a long snake-like team, but later it became three teams advancing side by side.
As a result, the length of the team was shortened, and for a while, most of the team entered the canyon pass.
On the top of the canyon pass, several black figures moved quickly.
"How's it going?" one of them asked.
"As the coach expected, the opponent has indeed canceled the long dragon formation. Now most of the troops have entered the canyon pass, and we can take action." Another person said.
"Okay, I'll give the order right now." The man nodded.
Then he took out a salute.
Boom!
There was a loud noise and a huge salute rose into the sky.
This is the signal of mutual agreement.
At the other end of the canyon pass, the lurking troops took action immediately after receiving the news.
"Cut!" the crowd shouted.
A group of people chopped wildly, and the oil drum hidden on the cliff immediately rolled down from the top of the mountain.
"No, the enemy has been discovered." The Zhao soldiers guarding the mountain shouted.
Before they could fight back, a strong mixture of various oils poured down. Then, countless rockets were fired from all directions.
Immediately afterwards, flames rose into the sky in the valley.
A huge flame rose like a fire dragon.
The valley inside and outside was already filled with dense dead branches and wooden fences. Under the burning of the flames, the entire valley was instantly burned by the flames. The incompletely burned grease raised billowing smoke.
There was a strong wind in the valley. When the strong wind blew, the flames rose like countless giant dragons.
"Ah, help."
"Run quickly!"
Hundreds of thousands of Zhao's troops were piled up in the valley, and they instantly became burning people. Everyone rushed towards the entrance and exit. Unfortunately, only a small number of survivors escaped, and most of them basically escaped.
There is no place for death.
"Oh my God." Ji Yuan was dumbfounded.
He looked at the burning canyon, the flames soaring into the sky, almost lighting up the entire night sky.
"No, it's not good!" A soldier rushed over on horseback.
"What's going on?" Ji Ning asked hurriedly.
"Commander, this is bad." The soldier smiled bitterly and said, "Our army was ambushed and we fell into a trap."
"Tell me, what's going on?" Ji Ning was annoyed.
"We have more than 100,000 soldiers entering the canyon pass. Who knows, the firewood piled inside is not to stop us, but..." The soldier lowered his head and said: "They actually lit the firewood, and all our soldiers
Very few people were able to escape after the army was wiped out, and the troops behind them have lost contact. It is estimated that the worst is worse than the worst."
