Chapter 324 The Siege of Luoyue Pass

Luoyue Pass in the northwest of Qi State is located in the valley between Nitrate Mountain and Qi Mountain.

The gap between these two mountains is a rare and smooth road for Yan to enter Qi and Qi to enter Yan.In addition, the road from the northwest to Qi is either small in scale or the road is rugged, which is not as good as the business road of Niqi Qi.

Luoyue Pass is located on this crucial commercial road.Luoyueguan can even be simply and rudely called, the pincers of the Northwest Commercial Road.When the falling moon is closed, the business way is alive, and when the falling moon is closed, the business way is dead.

The name "Luoyue" means "the moon cannot pass".

Even if it is as high as the bright moon, it will sink to the sand in front of this pass.

moonlit night.

Luoyue Pass is like a gigantic beast, quietly crawling beside Niqi Commercial Road.

The sporadic torches of the city wall defenders seem to be the eyes of giant beasts who are half asleep and half awake.

Luoyue Pass, the most powerful pass in the northwest of Qi State, has more than 20 garrisons and nearly a hundred generals at all levels, including more than a thousand eighth-rank warriors, 83 ninth-rank warriors, and three masters.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Qiyan border is four thousand miles away, and the most luxurious border army configuration is here.

If Luoyue Pass is in place, there will be no worries on the northwestern border of Qi State; if Luoyue Pass is gone, Yin Jing, the capital of Qi State, will be in danger.

On the eve of Princess Xiaoyue's coming-of-age ceremony, the Niqi business road was as quiet as before.

On the hillside of Mount Nitrate in the dark night, a group of more than a thousand well-equipped light armored infantry marched silently.The same scene was also staged at the same time on the opposite side of Qishan.

This group of people has lightness skills on their feet and is extremely familiar with the mountain roads. They carry fine swords and crossbows on their backs, and they are all well-trained elite soldiers.As if they had been trained countless times, they walked through the dense forest without saying a word, crossed Luoyue Pass, and rushed towards the watchtower in charge of watching the beacon fire to the south of Luoyue Pass.

At the same time, the dark army of Yan gathered quietly before Luoyue Pass.This place is five kilometers away from Luoyue Pass, which is about the limit distance of human observation.

They often do this in order to paralyze the Qi army that Luoyue closed.

In the past, there were three to five thousand people and three to five thousand torches.Now there are 5000 people, five or six thousand torches.The extra one or two thousand torches did not look much different in the dark night.

Yang Wu, the city guard of Luoyue Pass, is an old man in his sixties. However, years of martial arts practice and master level cultivation make him look radiant, and he seems to be only in his forties.

"Old Yang, haha, have a drink or two?" A middle-aged man in armor, holding a big bowl and wine in his arms, shouted at Yang Wu in the barracks.

Yang Wu's skin was tanned by the sun in the northwest border. He frowned, looking at the man holding the wine with an expression of displeasure.

"Second Zheng, drinking is not allowed in the army."

Zheng Laoer put the wine jar on the table indifferently, and placed the two large bowls side by side, then smashed the mud seal of the wine jar with one palm, picked it up with one hand and poured the wine.

"What do you call drinking after two sips? Come, Lao Yang, and roast chicken!"

"Where did the roast chicken come from?"

"A merchant from Yan State snatched it."

"Where's the wine?"

"It was also snatched by the merchants of Yan Kingdom."

"You!" Yang Wu was momentarily at a loss for words.

"Hi." Mr. Zheng picked up the big bowl, touched the wine bowl opposite, opened his mouth, raised his head, and a bowl of wine slid down his throat into his belly. "What kind of robbery is robbing people from the Yan Kingdom? Ah? That's called, what's the name, I forgot. Drink! Lao Yang, you are just making a fuss. The big deal, I will go down from the general to the school lieutenant. Anyway, it won't hinder you, Lao Yang. Grandpa."

Yang Wu said bitterly, "A martial artist at the master level has spent most of his life, and even became a captain, don't you feel ashamed?"

Zheng Laoer said indifferently: "What's the matter, I just need to be a good brother. Look at that old He. And you, next time you go back to Yin Jing, you will be promoted to a first-rank general, and you will get the title of Duke. ?”

Yang Wu sat across from Zheng's second son, unscrewed the best drumstick from the roast chicken, and stuffed it into his mouth, "The first-rank general is the right-hand man, do you understand?"

"It's a mess, who the hell can understand?"

The two touched the big bowl a few times, and the spirits in the wine jar had bottomed out.

"Lao Yang, tell me, when the first emperor went on his own conquest, why did he stop fighting when he reached Jingtian, the capital of the Yan Kingdom? If he had gone all out in the first place, why would he be guarding the Luoyue Pass? He would have gone home early to have a baby."

Yang Wu said impatiently: "You shut up. Drink your wine well."

"I'm done drinking. I'll go grab some more from Yan Shang."

Zheng Laoer stood up, and walked out the door with the clang of his armor.

Yang Wu hurriedly stood up to stop him, "If you want to rob Yan's army, that's fine. Yan's merchants are also Yan's people, why are you embarrassing them?"

"What's the problem? I'm called not to meet them!"

"You stop for me!"

The two left the barracks and chased to the city wall.The defenders of the city wall have long been familiar with this.But no one dared to laugh. After all, these are two warriors at the Grandmaster level, and their lives can be killed with a flick of a finger.

Standing on the city wall, Mr. Zheng was about to jump off the city wall to go to the merchant's inn a few kilometers away to get something, when he suddenly noticed that the torches in the distance seemed to be beating and approaching.

"Lao Yang, look, is the Yan army here?"

The eyesight of the Grandmaster Realm is far superior to that of ordinary people. Yang Wu took a closer look and found that the reflections of countless iron objects were faintly shining among the sparse torches!That is a long dagger and armor!
"Not good! The army of Yan State is attacking! Beat the drums! Defend the city!"

Boom!Boom!Boom!
Under the order of the war drums, the well-patrolled troops of the Yan Kingdom rushed towards the unattainable, mountain-thick city wall of Luoyue Pass like a tide.

Black waves hit the city wall one after another, and then the tide ebbed one after another. What was left after the ebb tide was not black water marks, but red flesh and blood.

Next to the chariot of the commander of the Yan army, surrounded by nine soaring guru auras.

Among them there are men and women, fat and thin, the only thing in common is that they all look solemnly at Luoyue Pass not far away, shouting to kill.

Both the coach on the chariot and the nine masters knew that if the 30 Yan army wanted to break through the Luoyue Pass overnight, it would be tantamount to a dream.

The reason why the Yan army kept attacking Luoyue Pass at this time was just to create opportunities for them.

The Grandmaster Realm already has the ability to break through the gate of the mountain. If the time is right, it is not impossible to rely on their strength to break through the gate of Luoyueguan.

The shouts of the Yan army lasted for three full hours. During the continuous and almost uninterrupted attack, both the Qi defenders and the Yan army were extremely exhausted.

Everyone understands that the result of this battle is the result of the whole northwestern battle of Qi.

If Luoyue Pass is captured, Yan's army can reach Yinjing directly. If Luoyue Pass cannot be captured, Yan Kingdom can only continue to shrink to the north of Luoyue Pass, and the six southern states among Kyushu are out of reach.

Yang Wu frowned deeply as he stared at the Yan army launching continuous offensives below the city.

He didn't need to think about it to know that under such an offensive, the casualties of the Yan army must be much higher than that of the Qi army.Siege is a protracted war, and it needs to be more protracted when the two sides are evenly matched.Yan Jun is so eager for quick success, I don't know why.

"Yang Yufei."

"The end is here."

"Is the wolf smoke lit?"

"Yes, but..."

"what?"

"no respond."

"no respond?"

Yang Wu's heart moved, he quickly climbed up to the high hall of the city tower with lightness kung fu, and looked south, there was no movement at the observation tower in the south.

Yang Wu's face remained unchanged, and after landing from the top of the hall, he said: "Send out scouts, and be sure to deliver the news of the 30 Yan army's invasion to Yin Jing."

"Commander, the last general has sent three scouts."

"Send three more, no, nine."

"Yes."
