When Chen Ping was imprisoned, the remaining thousand Eagle Brigade cavalry rushed directly to the camp. Unfortunately, the search and suppression army was outnumbered, and Chen Ping was held in Xu Qian's hands. Even the Eagle Brigade cavalry could not Don't dare to act rashly.
In this way, Xu Qian had all the frontline command power in his hands.
Xu Qian immediately ordered the entire army to prepare and launch a general attack on the enemy soon. At the same time, he ordered the mountains to be set on fire!
It's autumn, the weather is dry, and a tiny spark can cause an uncontrollable disaster.
As the search and suppression soldiers threw torches into Qingyu Mountain from all directions, the raging fire spread instantly, and the raging flames almost illuminated the entire night sky.
Qin Feng had long expected that the enemy would burn the mountain. Although he was mentally prepared, standing on the top of the mountain and looking at the fires burning in all directions, he still felt a little emotional.
As a result, the soldiers completely lost the protection of the mountains and forests. In the next battle, they could only engage in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy, and casualties were inevitable.
Ning Hu's eyes also showed a little solemnity: "It seems that Xu Qian is not too useless. He immediately burned down the mountain after seizing power."
Qin Feng stood with his hands behind his back and spoke earnestly: "Which is the lesser of two evils. In the Fool's heart, fighting for power always comes first. Only when the threats around him are cleared away can he concentrate on his work.
"Tell all the soldiers that although the enemy's general is a jester, don't underestimate him.
"When the mountain fires are extinguished, the enemy troops will inevitably advance to the mountainside step by step. Next, we will face enemies coming up like a tide."
The fire burned for a day and a night, and it was not until nightfall the next day that the mountain fire was completely extinguished.
While the fire burned the mountain, all the soldiers had a peaceful sleep. At this time, their mental state was extremely energetic. Everyone was at their posts, quietly watching the situation down the mountain. The entire Qingyu Mountain seemed extremely quiet.
The night is getting deeper and the autumn wind is bleak.
Dots of light, like long dragons, spread upward from the foot of the mountain. Each fire dragon represents a search and suppression army. There are six fire dragons in total. As they continue to advance, the six fire dragons gradually converge into three, and finally become two.
The main force of the search and suppression army began to clear the mountainside and set up camp.
The vanguard troops are on the front line, ready to guard against enemy sneak attacks.
As tents were set up one after another, it meant that the mountainside was completely destroyed.
Qin Feng called Ning Hu and whispered: "Let the soldiers take turns to rest. I'm afraid they won't attack the mountain tonight. The enemy will not attack in a big way until dawn at the earliest and in the morning at the latest."
Based on Ning Hu's understanding of Qin Feng, Qin Feng must be under great pressure at this time, but he just refused to show it.
Ning Hu immediately lowered his voice and asked tentatively: "Brother Qin, Xu Qian has eliminated Chen Ping, the enemy's most difficult opponent. We all know Xu Qian's strength, so we don't need to pay too much attention to it."
Qin Feng knew that Ning Hu was comforting him, and immediately sighed softly.
"Xu Qian is nothing, but he has the right time, place and people. He can continuously dispatch defenders from all over the country to engage in a protracted war of attrition. The last thing we can afford is attrition. And... even if Xu Qian is defeated, Beidi will send other troops People continue to encircle and suppress us.”
Qin Feng did not continue. After all, at this juncture, talking too much could easily affect morale.
Moreover, what Qin Feng was most worried about was Xu Qian's defeat.
Once Xu Qian is defeated, Beidi will definitely send regular troops to encircle and suppress him. By then, with the few manpower around Qin Feng, he may not be able to survive even one round.
The only hope right now is that the war in the northern border of Liang Kingdom has made some progress.
As long as Chen Si's army retreats, even if it just gives up the border, Beixi can send reinforcements to rescue them.
Otherwise, there is always only a dead end waiting for him and others.
This night was calm and nothing happened, but Qin Feng knew that such good days would never return.
In the early morning of the next day, at dawn, Qin Feng, who was taking a nap while leaning on the stone wall, was woken up by Ning Hu.
"Brother Qin, the enemy is preparing to attack."
Hearing this, Qin Feng quickly stood up to check, and sure enough he found that dense enemy troops had gathered on the mountainside.
This moment has finally arrived!
Qin Feng was in an unprecedented calm mood. He nodded to Ning Hu and told all the soldiers to take their positions, preparing to fight to the death with the enemy.
At the same time, Qin Feng also held a simple wooden hammer made of tree branches tightly in his hand. Whenever something went wrong, he could rely on the cowhide drum in the watchtower to issue orders.
Half an hour later, accompanied by a heavy drumbeat, the vanguard force consisting of 500 people began to slowly advance towards the top of the mountain.
The soldiers in the front row held large shields, and the soldiers in the rear held rifles, forming a dense formation, and there were some experienced veterans among them, constantly shouting slogans.
"Stay still, stay still, don't panic!"
Obviously, Xu Qian dispersed the Eagle Brigade cavalry and mixed them into the search and suppression army. In this way, these veterans of many battles could mobilize the defenders and improve their morale.
Although Xu Qian's actual combat experience is infinitely close to zero, as a civil servant after all, he must study the art of war. This most basic tactics will naturally not be difficult for Xu Qian.
However, as we advance, the terrain becomes steeper and steeper, and the route we can advance becomes narrower and narrower.
According to Qin Feng's preconception, the enemy's vanguard troops indeed entered the pre-set combat platform.
The combat platform is not large and can only accommodate about 200 people at a time. The remaining 300 people can only continue to push upward. At this time, they are less than 20 steps away from the No. 1 fortress.
From beginning to end, none of the soldiers stationed at Fortress No. 1 fired an arrow.
When the first batch of twenty enemy troops rushed to the front of the fortress, the soldiers who were already ready to attack suddenly thrust their horses out along the entrance of the arrow stack.
The sharp tip of the spear directly pierced the enemy's light armor, and blood burst out. At the same time, a shrill scream echoed throughout the Qingyu Mountain.
This scream not only broke the tranquility of Qingyu Mountain, but also sounded the horn of war.
The enemy's vanguard troops roared and cursed in an instant.
"kill!"
"The enemy has been forced into a desperate situation and has no way to retreat. Everyone rush forward, kill all the enemy troops, and make great achievements!"
"Sir Xu has an order. Anyone who beheads a Tianji camp guard will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver. Anyone who beheads a general will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver!"
"This is our territory of Dadi. How can we allow enemies to trample on it? For the sake of Dadi, for the sake of your Majesty, and for the sake of all the people, kill all these sons of bitches, the Liang Kingdom bandits!"
Under the leadership of veterans, the vanguard troops rushed toward the fortress.
The soldiers guarding the fortress did not say a word, but stared wildly, and kept thrusting their horses towards the enemy. Relying on the length advantage of the horses, they forcibly blocked the enemy five steps away!
