The sun is red with blood, the mountains and the sea are slanting to the west, the sunset is flying, the rays are brilliant and changing, the Yunmeng army appears in a mighty manner outside Lishan Pass. The uniform steps of hundreds of thousands of troops make a dull sound, making the earth tremble slightly.
From the sight of the defenders on the cliffs on both sides of Lishan Pass, they saw a large number of Yunmeng Allied Forces, a dense mass of black troops approaching Lishan Pass. The defenders on the cliffs on both sides of Lishan Pass watched. , It is inevitable to be a little nervous about such a large lineup of the Yunmeng Alliance.
As soon as the defenders at the top of the cliff saw the Yunmeng Alliance Army, the officer immediately ordered the signal soldiers to send signal arrows to the defenders at the bottom of the cliff indicating that the Yunmeng Alliance Army was incoming. The signal arrows flew out of the strings and made a startling sound through the air.
As soon as the guardian officer on the tower of Lishan Pass received the signal from the cliff, he did not dare to neglect it and immediately sent someone to report to Hou Qing.
After receiving the notification from the soldiers, Hou Qing immediately set off to the tower of Lishan Pass. Through the canyon in front of Lishan Pass, he saw the Yunmeng Allied Forces marching towards Lishan Pass.
Upon seeing this, Hou Qing knew that the Yunmeng coalition forces were about to attack the city and that the war was imminent. He ordered all the soldiers defending the city to enter combat positions immediately and be ready to fight at any time.
At the same time, Hou Qing ordered the communications troops to issue orders to the defenders on the mountain with command flags. As soon as the Yunmeng Allied Forces entered their attack range, they would immediately launch an attack on the Yunmeng Allied Forces, consuming the enemy's combat effectiveness to the maximum extent.
The defenders on the cliff received the flag order from General Hou Qing, and immediately launched their trebuchets, loaded their arrows, and mounted their powerful crossbows, ready to attack the Yunmeng coalition forces at any time and deal them the most brutal blow.
Under the blood-red sunset, the Yunmeng Allied Forces marched forward following the flag of the war horse played by Yan Long. In the eyes of the two battalions of defenders on the top of the Lishan Pass cliff, these soldiers of the Yunmeng Allied Forces were fighting against the Yanlong King. Under the leadership of Yunmeng, they walked towards death step by step. Once the Yunmeng coalition entered the attack range of their trebuchets, they would mercilessly throw overwhelming and lethal boulders at them, and then they would enjoy the clouds on the cliff. The tragic wails from the Dream Alliance Army, and the ground stained red with their blood.
Seeing that the Yunmeng coalition was about to enter the attack range of their trebuchets, King Yanlong suddenly stopped the coalition's advance. He knew that if he continued to move forward, he would bring the Yunmeng coalition into the Palace of Hell. Within the attack range of the ambush, the entire Yunmeng coalition would suffer heavy losses. He, the Flame Dragon King, would not do such a loss-making business.
King Yanlong ordered the front column to be on alert, while the rear troops set up camp and rested in place. All soldiers were ready to attack Lishan Pass at any time. Once those three thousand soldiers fell from the sky, it would be the signal for the Yunmeng Allied Forces to launch an attack on Lishan Pass, and at this time point , they expected that in the early morning, the sky would turn white, and when the sky was twilight, they wanted to use the light of dawn to clear away the darkness that Jiuli City had brought to them.
The actions of the Yanlong King puzzled General Houqing on the tower of Lishan Pass. He had never seen such a tactic of leading troops to attack the city. The Houqing, who was confused by the Yanlong King, could only turn to Chimu Kun for help. , to see what insights he had on the abnormal behavior of the Flame Dragon King at this time.
When Chimu Kun learned from Hou Qing that the Yan Dragon King had unexpectedly set up camp outside the Lishanguan Canyon and beyond the attack range of the ambush on the cliff top, Chi Mu Kun was also surprised by the Yan Dragon King's strange behavior. I understand that Chimu Kun is also in a fog at this time. I wonder why the Flame Dragon King did this?
In order to detect the unusual behavior of the Flame Dragon King, Hou Qing and Chi Mukun came to the city tower of Lishan Pass together. Through the canyon outside the city pass, the two of them saw the Yunmeng Alliance Army, which was full of torches and lit up the entire night. camp.
Chimu Kun said in confusion: "Why does the Flame Dragon King use his troops unreasonably? What does he want to do?"
Hou Qing said uneasily: "I think this must not be Yan Long King's way of using troops. From what I know about Yan Long King, he has never used troops in such a cunning way. It is difficult to figure out. I think this must come from Yun Long." The Dream Clan is known as the most intelligent strategist - the masterpiece of Yan Hua. They must have other motives for doing this, but I still can't figure out what his intention is."
Chimu Kun said: "Could it be that they did this to provoke our army, and wanted to use such contempt and insult to our army to lure our army out of the customs to fight with them outside the customs?"
Hou Qing looked at the brightly lit camp of the Yunmeng coalition and said, "This is not impossible. They must know that with the terrain of Lishan Pass being easy to defend and difficult to attack, if they want to attack forcefully, they will definitely lose their troops, even if they are lucky enough to capture it. Lishanguan will also pay a heavy price, which will have a major impact on their subsequent attack on Jiuli City, and may make their purpose of this move end in failure. Looking at their posture, it is completely against me The army is a naked provocation. Could it be that they really want to use this method to lure our army out of the city to fight them."
After hearing General Houqing's analysis, Chimu Kun laughed sarcastically and said, "They underestimate our IQs too much! Do they think we are two hundred and fifty? We will leave the impregnable city gate undefended." ? Go crazy and go out of the city to fight them, unless we have water in our heads." Chimu Kun said angrily: "I think the bullshit Zhiduoxing you mentioned about the Yunmeng clan can only do this."
After hearing what Chimu Kun said, General Houqing immediately became nervous. Chimukun could see the panic on Houqing's face. Chimukun was about to ask him why, when Houqing said: "This speculation may just be ours." The wishful thinking of both of us is just that we are self-righteous. Perhaps behind the Yanlong King's actions is just to hide the huge conspiracy he is brewing for us." Hou Qing emphasized, "A huge conspiracy that can annihilate our entire army. .”
Chimukun asked: "What other conspiracy can they have? No matter what conspiracy they have, as long as we defend Lishan Pass and cannot get out, relying on the natural chasm terrain of Lishan Pass that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, plus the cliffs on both sides I don't think they can pull off any conspiracy."
The Hou Qing asked uneasily: "General, do you still remember those three thousand soldiers of Yunmeng who had no idea where they were going? Those were elite soldiers and generals selected from their Yunmeng coalition. Where did they go?"
"So what?" Chimu Kun said.
"The general suspects that they are heading towards the two ambush camps we deployed on the cliffs outside Lishan Pass. If we boldly imagine that if the two ambush camps we deployed on the mountains suddenly lose their function, Yun If the Meng Alliance forces gather their forces to attack Lishan Pass with all their strength, what are our chances of winning? Can we still hold Lishan Pass?"
After hearing this, Chimu Kun could not help feeling a chill down his back. He said with a trembling voice: "If it is true as the general said, the chance that we can hold Lishan Pass is almost zero." At this point, Chimu Kun suddenly turned the corner and said : "General, I think your idea is a bit unfounded. The road up and down the cliff has been completely destroyed by us. If the Yunmeng coalition wants to attack the cliff, it would be better to pull out the two battalions of our ambushes than to attack directly. It's difficult to get down to Lishan Pass. Do you think they will do such a thankless business? And there are only three thousand soldiers. Even if they have wings, they can reach the top of the cliff safely. Three thousand versus six thousand, who do you think? Has a better chance of winning?"
After hearing what Chimu Kun said, Hou Qing still said uneasily: "I hope so."
Chimukun said optimistically: "As long as we can't hold on, no matter how many people they have, they will have no use in this Lishanguan Canyon, and there is nothing they can do against us."
Faced with the unusual behavior of the Flame Dragon King, Hou Qing had no good response at this point. He could only act according to Chimu Kun's idea. He ordered the guards to not leave the gate to meet him no matter what the Yunmeng coalition forces did. If you encounter the enemy, just defend. Violators will be dealt with according to military law.
The Yunmeng Allied Forces, according to Yanhua's arrangements, set up camp outside the attack range of the Lishan Pass ambush trebuchet. It was said that they were setting up camp. In fact, it was just Yanhua's ploy to deceive others, and the purpose was to win for the three thousand soldiers. Time diverted Hou Qing's attention. Yan Hua knew that with the impending war, it was impossible for Hou Qing not to film spies and secretly monitor their every move, just like they also had spies monitoring them.
Yan Hua knew that the whereabouts of the three thousand soldiers they sent out had obviously been detected by Hou Qing. However, they did not know the specific purpose of the three thousand soldiers' actions, so they did not take any corresponding actions. However, Qing's actions for many years later Combat experience, I'm afraid he has already seen some clues, but the Queen is not sure yet. In order to prevent the Queen with rich combat experience from having time to study the true intentions of the three thousand soldiers, Yan Hua spent so much time and mobilized troops. They set up camp here in order to fully attract the attention of the Queen and prevent the Queen from having the energy to care about other things.
Although the current Yunmeng Allied Forces camp is loosely guarded, in fact it is loose on the outside and tight on the inside. All the soldiers in the camp are mentally tense and are always ready to charge towards Lishan Pass and capture Lishan Pass.
In front of the Yunmeng Allied Forces, King Yanlong and the clan chiefs and leaders of the major tribes faced Lishan Pass. They looked at the dangerous terrain of Lishan Pass and the heavily guarded pass. Several clan leaders said with some frustration: "The terrain of Lishan Pass is It’s so dangerous, can we really capture it?”
The Yanlong King replied very confidently: "Even if Lishan Pass is built with copper and iron walls, it is impossible to escape from our group of tigers and wolves. Don't worry. When dawn breaks tomorrow, our Yunmeng coalition will attack with an unstoppable momentum." Enter Lishan Pass, which you think is impregnable, and then go straight to Jiuli City. When the time comes, I see that Jiuli old man is not obedient enough to let His Highness Chi You go and give up the throne to Prince Chi You, who is popular among the people."
Yan Hua on the side was not as optimistic as Yan Long King. He stood up and reminded Yan Long King, "Your Majesty, I heard that the guard of Lishan Pass, General Houqing, is a veteran general who has been on the battlefield for a long time. He has rich combat experience and can use troops like this." God, we should not underestimate him. I am afraid that the deception we have set up will not be hidden from him for long. Once he figures out the intentions of our three thousand elite soldiers, he will definitely use countermeasures against us. At that time, we can Passive."
Yao Ji said: "Since General Yanhua has already considered this, I must have some countermeasures?"
Yan Hua smiled slightly and said with an enigmatic look: "Wei Chen has a plan, I wonder if it can be used?"
Shen Tu couldn't wait to ask: "Master Yanhua, if you have any clever ideas, please come and tell us."
Yan Hua said: "Wei Chen's plan is to prevent the Queen from having time to think about the whereabouts and intentions of our three thousand troops. Maybe we can capture Lishan Pass without losing any blood."
Yan Hua's words were very off-putting to everyone. His confusing words made everyone present eager to know what he was thinking.
