Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2071 Outsmart Lu Longsai
Chapter 2069: Outsmarting Lulong Sai
"Wow……"

Looking at the majestic pass between the two mountains, Jia Fu and Sun Lingming both exclaimed in unison.

"This Lulongsai can be renamed as Lulong Pass. In my opinion, the defense of this pass is not inferior to Hangu Hulao Pass." Jia Fu said seriously.

"Although my grandson has never seen Hangu Pass and Hulao Pass, he has seen Huguan Pass. Lulongsai is even more dangerous than Huguan Pass." Sun Lingming said.

After hearing what the two said, Gongsun Xuanyuan looked up at Lu Longsai, and said with a wry smile: "Although the original Lu Longsai is dangerous, it is far from being comparable to Hulao Hangu, even compared to Huguan, it is still the same. There is a certain gap.

But after the general's reconstruction, Lu Longsai now has a defensive power comparable to Hangu's and surpassing Huguan. "

Hearing Xuanyuan's words, all the generals present were silent, what else could they say?Said that Xuanyuan is not good at dealing with foreigners, but he is best at cheating his own people?
"In today's Lulongsai, it is not advisable to attack by force, it must be outsmarted."

Speaking of this, Xuanyuan's eyes flashed with firmness, and he said in a deep voice: "The order will go on, the whole army will hide, and I will personally lead people to climb the mountain tonight and set fire to the Crescent Tower."

"promise."

Because he was afraid of being discovered by the defenders inside the pass, Xuanyuan did not let the army approach Lulongsai, but stayed in a valley five miles outside the pass.

The sun rose and the moon set, and soon it was night, and Xuanyuan personally led a hundred elite crossbowmen, each of whom carried the disassembled eight-ox crossbow parts, and sneaked towards the unnamed mountain outside Lulong under the cover of night.

The reason why Xuanyuan disassembled the eight-ox crossbow into parts was because it took four people to move the assembled eight-ox crossbow, and 100 people could only move 25 of them.

However, if it is disassembled into parts and then assembled on the mountain, two people can carry all the parts of an eight-ox crossbow, and a hundred people can carry fifty eight-ox crossbows, directly reducing the total number of bed crossbows that can be carried. double.

In addition, the terrain of the unnamed mountain is steep, and it is not easy for the soldiers to even climb the mountain. It is impossible to climb up the mountain with the assembled eight-ox crossbow.

After reaching the unnamed mountain peak, Xuanyuan looked at the pitch-black mountain in front of his eyes, and then at the soldiers whose faces could not be seen clearly behind him, and said in a deep voice, "Hurry up and distribute the lighting bags."

"promise."

In order to prevent being discovered by patrolling enemy troops, mountaineering soldiers cannot hold torches.

Given the difficulty of climbing the unnamed mountain, going up the mountain in the dark is tantamount to seeking death, but making a fire is easy to be discovered by the Qing army.

This also became another major problem in outwitting Lu Longsai, but this problem was solved by Qin Hao before the division of troops.

Qin Hao told Xuanyuan that although you can't make a fire when climbing a mountain, you can catch more fireflies, put them in a cloth bag, and use the light of fireflies instead of firelight for lighting.

Qin Hao's trick made Xuanyuan startle as a heavenly being. This trick is simply too perfect. The light of fireflies is different from the color of firelight, not to mention how easy it is to be found, even if they are found, they will be regarded as fireflies.

Luronsai is originally located in the wilderness, so there is no shortage of fireflies.

Therefore, after dark, Xuanyuan immediately sent thousands of soldiers to catch fireflies everywhere and made more than 300 lighting bags.

As soon as Xuanyuan finished speaking, three soldiers carrying big black cloth bags came out.

The size of the cloth bag is very large, but the three of them did it effortlessly, as if there was nothing in the bag, but the size of the bag was clearly supported.

The three soldiers put down the bag and opened it, only to see that the inside of the black cloth bag was emitting yellow-green fluorescence. It was a lighting bag made of fireflies.

"Hurry up, distribute it, three bags per person."

Under Xuanyuan's urging, more than 300 bags of firefly brand lighting bags were quickly distributed, and then Xuanyuan took the lead in climbing the mountain.

At the same time, above Lulongsai, Qing soldiers were patrolling back and forth.

Although the area where Zhou Yu landed was the central and eastern part of western Liaoning, the defenders in the western part were also very nervous. In order to prevent the Qin army from raiding, they took strict precautions, and the number of patrols was three times that of usual.

"Brother, the guard has changed."

"Okay... um? Why is that area so bright? What's that?"

After hearing this, the changing guard suddenly became nervous, but heaved a sigh of relief after he fixed his eyes.

"Hey, what am I supposed to be, have you never seen fireflies?"

"But fireflies are so bright?"

"It's rare to see, but it's almost as bright as the fireflies gather."

"Is that so..."

Compared with the brightness of the torches, the firefly brand lighting bags are already much darker, but they are still unavoidably noticed by the Qing army sentry, but they don't care, just think it is the light emitted by a large number of fireflies gathered.

On Xuanyuan's side, after an hour-long climb, Xuanyuan finally led his soldiers to the top of the mountain.

The unnamed mountain was really too difficult to climb. Even with Xuanyuan leading the way and all the elite soldiers climbing, it was inevitable that some of them would fall due to stepping on the air, but even so, the soldiers still gritted their teeth and continued to climb.

After reaching the top of the mountain, Xuanyuan counted the number of people and found that there were still 88 people left, which meant that 12 people fell down on the way, and they were all the most elite crossbowmen.

This also reduced the number of Qin Jun's eight-ox crossbows to 44.

"Quickly, quickly assemble the bed crossbow." Xuanyuan shouted in a low voice.

Now it's Yin time, and in two more hours, it will be dawn, and the fire attack plan must be completed before dawn.

The soldiers led by Xuanyuan are all the most elite crossbowmen. They have long been proficient in disassembling and assembling bed crossbows. It took less than half an hour to assemble all the eight-ox crossbows.

Due to the loss of 12 people, the total number of Qin Jun's bed crossbows also dropped from fifty to forty-four.

After the 44 bed crossbows were assembled, the narrow mountaintop instantly became extremely crowded, and some soldiers were almost pushed off the cliff.

"Everyone, be careful. Those who can go back alive will all be promoted to one level. It would be too bad to fall and die at this time."

Originally, the soldiers were very nervous. After all, the top of the mountain was too crowded, and if people on the edge were not careful, they might fall down the mountain.

But after hearing Xuanyuan's words, the soldiers relaxed instead, thinking that they must go back alive so that they could be promoted to rank.

After seeing this scene, Xuanyuan nodded secretly in his heart, and then asked the soldiers to point the bed crossbows at the Crescent Tower, and adjust the angle of upward shooting.

Seeing that Xuanyuan did not give the order to light the fire for a long time, he accompanied the captain of the Nu Army and asked, "General, when will you release the arrow?"

Xuanyuan raised his head to feel the wind speed on the top of the mountain, and said calmly: "Wait a little longer, wait until the wind is stronger."
