Liu Dadao was advancing steadily at a speed of one bar a day. He was able to pull out one fence a day, not because of deliberate calculations, but because these fences were set up in extremely dangerous places, and the path was only a few feet wide. Multiple hands.
At the same time, the defenders had never thought of being able to hold on to these temporary fences. They just wanted to use them to delay the speed of the Ming army and sharpen their spirits, so they used a large number of strong men as cannon fodder. The combat power is also limited.
Therefore, Liu Dadao only needs to be ruthless and use his life to pile up, pull out a fence every day, and move forward steadily.
On this day, the army of the imperial court finally reached the Loushan Pass. This Loushan Pass was built against a valley, with cliffs as walls on both sides and a solid and thick pass in the middle. It is also impossible to deploy too many troops. Looking at the city gate, one has to look up. After the city gate, Wan Feng pierces the clouds, which really gives people a feeling of indestructibility.
Liu Dadao remained calm, set up camp in front of the pass, and immediately sent someone to call Ye Xiaotian.
These days, Liu Dadao's main force will carry out the tough battles. On the one hand, this is because Ye Xiaotian made great efforts in the early stage, causing many casualties and needing a rest. On the other hand, according to their plan, this most dangerous hurdle is It depends on Ye Xiaotian to break it, this knife must be used on its edge, so naturally it needs to take a good rest.
Ye Xiaotian led his troops to follow in the rear, and has been leisurely and leisurely with nothing to do. But he has never been idle, usually only when a very aggressive man covets a beautiful woman, he will rack his brains and pester him all the time, but now Ye Xiaotian enjoys the treatment of a beautiful woman, and is constantly teased by Tian Yufeng some.
Zhan Ning'er was like a tigress protecting her food, she stared at her tightly. Tian Yufeng doesn't understand martial arts, Zhan Ning'er can't fight her, and it's not her style to use force against a weak woman, so she has to spread all the cowardice she received from Tian Yufeng on Ye Xiaotian, the method is: squeeze him dry !
In order to achieve this goal, many postures and movements that she usually feels shy and unwilling to obey Ye Xiaotian are displayed one by one at this time, making Ye Xiaotian like a licentious king, enjoying all the blessings. As for Tian female phoenix, although that foxy girl has never tasted something new, but this kind of ambiguity and charm is also unique. It's just that when the two girls are fighting with each other, it's a headache.
This day when soldiers approached Loushan Pass, Ye Xiaotian knew that it was time for him to make a move, and his expression suddenly became serious. And Tian Yufeng and Zhan Ning'er also stopped fighting at the same time, and looked at him with deep meanings in each other's eyes.
Zhan Ning'er knew that whether or not this level was broken was very important to Wo Niu Ling. If the Ming army fell in front of Loushan Pass, then the battle against rebellion would inevitably be extended indefinitely, and the imperial army would have to retreat and gather momentum to come back.
However, the Bozhou soldiers suffered a great loss when they entered Sichuan. Next, they will probably use Loushan Pass as a defensive point, change their offensive to defensive, and turn their expansion targets to the east and Sinan Prefecture. At that time, Woniuling will be the first to bear the brunt. Ye Xiaotian will bear tremendous pressure alone.
Tian Yufeng also knows what Loushanguan's gains and losses mean to Yang Yinglong and her lifelong dreams. Originally, she had full confidence in Loushan Pass, but what Ye Xiaotian said before became a lingering shadow for her. Now that she has passed Loushan Pass, it is meaningless for her to try to seduce Ye Xiaotian and wait for an opportunity to escape , the only thing she can do now is to wait...and pray.
※※※
When the Ming army attacked the city and had not set up camp, the bamboo tube that had been secretly hidden for half a month in the pass was quietly taken out, unplugged and thrown into the mountain spring.
What is hidden in the bamboo tube is not poison, but Gu. This mountain spring is living water. If poison is injected, it will take hundreds of thousands of doses of poison to poison the soldiers drinking the water. Even if the soldiers in the city are all blind, Dai Yunxi can't make so many. poison.
This is not the case with this Gu, this Gu is a new type of Gu poison developed by Dai Yunxi after he was honored as an elder and inspired by studying the millennium Gu of our religion. Millennium Gu is too difficult to make, but Dai Yunxi created another Gu poison based on its principle.
Its lethality can't even reach one percent of the Millennium Gu, it can only make people suffer from diarrhea and make the whole body weak. But it has the ability to reproduce itself. In fact, from a modern point of view, it is a biochemical virus.
The virus in the bamboo tube leaks into the mountain spring, because it is a living thing and can reproduce itself quickly, so the effect will not be reduced by the running water, but the scope of infection will be expanded.
The defenders in Chengguan were all native soldiers, and people at that time rarely had the habit of deliberately boiling water to drink, and conditions did not allow it, so the poison entered many people's stomachs silently. And the people Ye Xiaotian sent into the city had stored a gourd of drinking water long before that, even if they didn't store water, they would endure their thirst for a while, and they would never drink a sip of stream water.
That night, some people gradually developed symptoms. At the beginning, they didn’t pay enough attention to it. It was just that some people had diarrhea after eating unclean food. Non-stop convenient, already exhausted and powerless.
How could Loushan Pass have such good sanitation conditions? These local soldiers are usually convenient to go anywhere. At this time, they are extremely unwell, and they don’t pay attention to the location.
At this time, the native officials came to their attention and consulted a doctor, but because their symptoms and such a large-scale disease were too similar to cholera, the doctor came to the conclusion that the plague broke out, and the people in the pass were panicked for a while.
The imperial army may not be able to break through Loushan Pass, but a plague can definitely destroy a city. When the whole city was in a state of panic, Liu Dadao outside the city launched another attack.
He marched for the camp every step of the way, and it also had the advantage of going every step of the way. At least the large siege equipment he left at the twelfth fence, made of local materials, had arrived under the city pass in time. The native officials in the city bite the bullet and drive the native soldiers who have not yet been recruited to defend the city, but it is often a group of soldiers that were originally assigned together. Power is greatly reduced.
At this time, fires broke out everywhere in Guanzhong. Ye Xiaotian had already sent spies in the city to set fires everywhere. The houses in Chengguan were all made of wooden thatched roofs and there were many trees. .
At the same time, people from all over the city kept shouting that officers and soldiers had entered the city.
There is a fierce battle at the top of the city, and the soldiers rushing to the city are in a hurry; "cholera" broke out in the city, and the stench is so bad that many soldiers are still holding up their pants and looking for a place to set foot; Have the officers and soldiers entered the city, and how many people have entered the city.
At this time, Ye Xiaotian led his soldiers who were accustomed to climbing rocks and trees to the side of Loushan Pass. Taking advantage of the chaos in the pass and the opportunity of the battle before the pass to attract the attention of the defenders, he quietly climbed up from the cliff behind the pass. with.
The pass has not yet been broken, and the defenses of the defenders in the pass have been broken.
