Chapter 812

Huan Jun realized that it was too late at this time. He saw countless boulders falling from both sides of the canyon like snow flakes, shaking the ground and causing dust to fly. Not long after, the spacious canyon center A pile of stones two or three meters high has accumulated, tightly blocking the only exit of the valley.

As soon as the rockfall came to an end, shouts of killing broke out from the mountains around the valley. Hundreds of wind army flags were erected. The densely packed wind army stood all over the mountain. At the same time, countless wind army also poured out from outside the canyon. , people quickly climbed up the stone pile, propped up their shields, and assumed a posture to resist the Huan army's breakout.

Cao Hou was the first among Huan's troops to give the order to rush out of the valley. However, his order was still a step too late. When Huan's army was about to pass through the canyon, it was already unable to get out. High piles of rocks were piled up to block their way. On the way forward, the Feng army occupying the top fired arrows condescendingly. Behind the stone pile, there were many Feng troops setting up trebuchets, preparing to attack the Huan army breaking through the stone pile.

Cao Hou knew very well that now was the only chance to break out. If he couldn't break out now and waited for the Feng Army to arrange everything properly, his side would be unable to fly. Like crazy, he issued death orders to the soldiers below, and he must attack the stone pile and rush out no matter what.

Under the command of Cao Hou, Huan's soldiers launched a charge.

The pile of stones is not high, just over two meters, but there are quite a lot of Feng troops gathered on it. What's even worse is that the mountains on both sides of the canyon are full of Feng country ambushes, and there seems to be an inexhaustible supply of stones and wooden piles. Like an exhaustion, they are thrown down from the mountain in a steady stream.

If a heavy object is dropped from such a high mountain, even a stone the size of a fist can kill a person, not to mention that the stone thrown down is the size of a basin. Once it hits the body, the person will be deformed and even the branches will not have time to be cleaned. The tree stumps were more powerful and often affected a large number of people when they fell. The arrows, which were as dense as raindrops, all caused huge damage to the Huan army.

Before Sergeant Huan could reach the stone pile, most of them had been beaten to death, wounded, shot and wounded. The remaining soldiers were shot and killed one by one by the Feng army before they could climb up the stone pile. .

The Feng Army's attack was too violent. Seeing the soldiers charging in front dying and being injured, with corpses all over the ground, and crying constantly, the Huan Army behind them turned pale with fright, and retreated continuously, afraid to move forward.

Cao Hou desperately went into battle to supervise the battle in person. After continuously killing several timid soldiers, he finally organized a second wave of breakout battles.

As a result, this wave of Huan troops was worse than the previous wave. They only rushed half the distance before they were forcefully knocked back by stones, wooden stakes, and arrows falling from the mountains on both sides.

The longer the delay, the more complete the Feng army's arrangement, the more fierce the attack, and the more difficult it will be to break through. Cao Hou understood this truth very well, but he was too anxious to use his strength. The morale of the soldiers was completely destroyed by the wind army on the mountain. Even if he drove the ducks up and forced them to charge, he would always turn back one step at a time. When the situation was not good, he would immediately turn around. If you run back, how can you succeed in breaking through?

The Huan army only launched two rounds of breakthroughs, but within a short time, there were already countless dead and injured people in the canyon. Looking up, the spacious canyon was full of gravel and tree stumps, with a heavy black mass below. There were layers of corpses of Huan soldiers, and even more were killed by arrows. Corpses were scattered all over the field, and blood flowed into rivers. It was too horrible to see.

It’s over! At this time, Cao Hou's last glimmer of hope was shattered. He no longer urged the soldiers below to continue breaking out, and rode his war horse back into the valley like a zombie.

As soon as he came back, Xu Qing and the Huan Army generals came to greet him. People asked in a hurry: "General Cao, what is the current situation? Can our army break out?"

Cao Hou looked around at the crowd, lamenting in his heart. He slowly shook his head, and then cupped his hands to Xu Qing and said, "General, the Feng Army occupies the mountain and is condescending. It also has a large number of rolling logs and rocks. It is difficult for our army to break through."

Hearing this, the faces of the generals changed drastically. Xu Qing also took a breath and froze on the spot, unable to recover for a long time.

After a long time, Xu Qing raised his riding whip fiercely and whipped Cao Hou hard. The whip hit Cao Hou's face, and a bloody streak appeared on his cheek. Xu Qing shouted sternly: "Marquis Cao, this is the way you led me!"

Cao Hou could no longer feel the burning pain from the whiplash, and his whole body was numb. Slowly lowering his head, he whispered: "General Wucha Feng's army set up an ambush here, causing the entire army to be trapped. He is willing to be punished, but the general must quickly think of a way to break out. If it is delayed for a long time, it will be more difficult for our army to break out." !”

Seeing Cao Hou, Xu Qing gritted his teeth in anger and wished he could strike him with a sword. However, now was not the time to kill his own general. He glared at Cao Hou fiercely and urged his horse to pass him and walk toward the canyon.

When he arrived near the canyon, Xu Qing took a look and suddenly felt a chill. He saw wind flags standing on the mountains on both sides of the canyon and crowds of people. Countless wind troops were busy shuttle back and forth, obviously carrying rolling logs and pounding stones. etc.

Looking ahead, a pile of rocks more than two meters high blocked the middle part of the canyon, with a dark and dense Feng Army gathering on it. The Feng Army used local materials to build defenses on the pile of rocks. Lowering his head and looking up at the ground, he saw that there were corpses of our own soldiers everywhere. Some were smashed to death, and some were shot to death. The corpses were piled up in piles, filling the canyon, like a hell on earth.

There are enemy troops on the mountains on both sides, and there are rocks blocking the front. How can we rush out? Looking at it, Xu Qing's cold sweat flows down his forehead. Cao Hou has taken the wrong way, but he is right. We can't delay. If we delay any longer, when the Feng army has built fortifications on the pile of stones, we will be even more unable to rush out.

After thinking about it, Xu Qing retreated back to the valley, gathered the whole army, and arranged the square formation, ready to launch a round of full-army attack. Victory or failure depends on this one move, Xu Qing intends to make a last gamble.

There are also Feng troops on the mountains around the valley. Every move of the Huan army in the valley is under the surveillance of the Feng army. Seeing the Huan army's full army array, knowing that the other side is going to do its best to break through, Liang Qi then added another 20,000 troops to the valley side, and transferred most of the main forces of the Sanshui army to the mountains on both sides of the valley.

With the increase in troops, the Feng army built fortifications on the pile of stones faster.

At this time, if you stand on the pile of stones, looking forward and backward, it is a completely different scene. There was no one in front of the pile of stones, only corpses scattered all over the ground. Looking behind the pile of stones, there were dense Fengjun soldiers like ants, with black armor and red tassels. They were all holding bows and arrows, with the arrows pointing to the sky. Among the Fengjun soldiers, there were more than 50 catapults, with stone bullets already loaded and the ropes already pulled, waiting for the enemy to enter the range.

Now, Liang Qi and his generals were on the mountain on the right side of the canyon. In order to see the situation below clearly, Liang Qi stood on the edge of the cliff, but he was also afraid that he would fall down, so he specially asked someone to prepare a rope to tie around his waist and the other end to the boulder.

For the commander of an army, his behavior was very embarrassing, but Liang Qi didn't care at all. He would not joke with his life. He was the leader of the entire army. If something happened to him, he would not be the only one to die.

Shangguan Yuanrang had been taken to the mountain and was resting not far from Liang Qi. The entire Huan army was trapped, and all the generals were smiling, only Shangguan Yuanrang was not happy. He was the one who attracted the Huan army, and he knew the tragic process best. The reason why the Huan army was able to take the bait was that his brothers paid the price with their lives.

Seeing that his soldiers were ready to fight the enemy, Liang Qi felt relieved. He turned his head to look at Shangguan Yuanrang, who looked lonely, and smiled slightly, saying: "Yuanrang, the main force of the Huan army was trapped, but you made the first contribution!"

Shangguan Yuanrang curled his lips, disapproving, and ignored him.

Liang Qi didn't mind, and continued: "We will trap the Huan army for a few days first, and when your spirit and physical strength are restored, you will chop off the head of the Huan army commander!"

Shangguan Yuanrang suddenly stood up and said proudly: "Why do we need to wait for a few days to fight the enemy? Now is the time!" As he spoke, he grabbed the three-pointed double-edged knife and turned to walk down the mountain.

He has a profound cultivation and a strong physique. After sitting down to rest for a while, his spiritual energy and physical strength have recovered a lot.

Seeing that Shangguan Yuanrang seemed to be going to fight again, the generals were worried and wanted to stop him. Liang Qi waved his hand and said, "Don't stop him, let him go!"

"But General Yuanrang..."

"Don't worry, Yuanrang knows much more about whether he can fight again than us." Liang Qi sighed and said, "Besides, watching so many brothers die on the battlefield, how can Yuanrang not be depressed with his personality? Going to the battlefield to kill the enemy can also relieve it."

"Oh!"

The generals looked at each other and said no more.

The reason why Liang Qi could eat Shangguan Yuanrang tightly is that he knows him best.

Shangguan Yuanrang went down the mountain and went directly to the canyon, which is the place where he directly confronted the enemy. If he wanted to fight, he would choose to fight here.

Seeing Shangguan Yuanrang coming, the soldiers of the Feng Army were all in high spirits. As the veritable god of war of the Feng Army, as long as Shangguan Yuanrang was there, even if he didn't take action, the soldiers would have a good idea of ​​what to do, and their morale would be greatly improved.

Shangguan Yuanrang walked through the crowd and came to the pile of stones. At this time, Tao Yu, the chief general of the Feng Army, ran down from the pile of stones quickly, came to Shangguan Yuanrang, saluted, and said, "General Yuanrang, why are you here?"

"Just came to take a look." Shangguan Yuanrang responded casually, and pretended to climb the pile of stones. Tao Yu hurriedly stretched out his hand to help him. The latter waved his arm to push him away, and said in a displeased voice: "Why do you help me? Do you think I can't climb up by myself?"

Tao Yu shrank his neck in fear and said hurriedly: "I dare not."

Shangguan Yuanrang strode onto the pile of stones, looked forward, then raised his three-pointed double-edged sword, swung it half a circle in the air, and suddenly hit the ground. With a click, the stones below were smashed into several pieces by the sword, and the long sword then pierced deeply into the pile of stones.

Looking at Shangguan Yuanrang standing on the pile of rocks with his sword in hand, the soldiers of the Feng Army below all felt their blood boiling and shouted in unison: "Feng, Feng, Feng--"
