Chapter 72
The heavy rain continued until the night. After the original plan was to capture Langye City, they would rest for two hours and continue to move forward. Now they were blocked by the heavy rain, and they had no choice but to stay for an extra night.
After staying for one night, the next morning the army packed up and moved on.
Starting from Langye City, walking on the main road, the road was soaked in mud by the heavy rain, and the army could only move forward slowly.
After starting from Langxie, we went all the way along Yishui River, and only came to the outside of Xinyi City in the evening.
The gates of Xinyi City were wide open, and there were no soldiers to block them. The people all huddled at home, daring not to appear on the streets of the city.
After observing for a while, it was determined that there were no enemy troops, and Li Pu walked into Xinyi City with a big axe.
"Restrict the soldiers not to make mistakes, bury the pot to cook, and half of them are stationed outside the city." After Li Pu finished speaking, he walked towards the largest official residence in the city.
After all the soldiers finished their meal, it was night and they began to camp and rest.
In the middle of the night, Li Pu suddenly heard a scream of killing, and hurriedly got up and rushed towards the city wall. The city was quiet and there was no movement.
There was movement outside the city. A small part of the camp of the Fali Legion outside the city was on fire, and the soldiers were putting out the fire with water.
"Open the door!"
"No!" The soldiers on the city wall had already noticed the movement outside the city, but they did not dare to leave the city without authorization.
The door opened, and Li Pu walked to the camp outside the city alone, carrying a big axe.
"General." Ju Shou came to Li Pu surrounded by a group of soldiers.
"what happened?"
"Someone thought that we would be camping here, and they had already buried a fire in the ground, and it ignited at night. Fortunately, the place where we were stationed was a little different from what he estimated, and the soldiers were also very calm. , did not give the thief a chance."
As soon as the fire started, Ju Shou felt something was wrong. Usually, if the enemy had sneaked into the camp to set it on fire, the fire would not have been so regular. After some investigation, Ju Shou figured out what happened.
"Why does the enemy know where we are stationed?" Li Pu was a little curious, he had a vague understanding of these things.
Just like Zhuge Liang asked Ma Su to be stationed at the bottom of the mountain, Ma Su wants to be stationed on the mountain, if Li Pu was asked to go, he might be stationed on the mountainside...
"It rained two days ago, and the rest of the terrain is low. Now it's still a pool of mud. Only this place where we are stationed is on the high side and relatively dry." Ju Shu explained.
"So that's the case." Li Pu went back to the city after accompanying Ju Shou for a while.
There were two more shouts of killing in the night, but Li Pu didn't care much and continued to sleep soundly.
On the second day, after breakfast, the army continued to move towards Tancheng in Donghai County.
It rained heavily the day before yesterday, and now the sun shines again for two consecutive days.
The water on the road has been dried by the sun, and the dirt on the road is hard enough to allow the horses to run fast.
There are a few deep ruts on the road that have been dried by the sun and left on the road, which may not be removed until the next heavy rain.
Li Pu led the army onto the war horse and accelerated the march, but in half a day, he arrived at Luoshan outside Tancheng.
There are many valleys in the mountains, and the rest of the roads can only allow small groups to pass through, and only the avenues that pass through the deep valleys in the mountains can allow the army to pass through.
"Pass quickly, don't stop!" Li Pu looked at the tall mountains on both sides and felt a little bad. He used to ride on the flanks of the army, but now he ran to the head of the army.
The soldiers of the army rode on horses, and upon hearing Li Pu's order, drove the horses forward quickly.
Li Pu led the army into the halfway, and suddenly saw some obstacles in front of him, and he felt a little bad.
Four or five big trees fell in the canyon. Although they could not block all the canyons, they also blocked [-]-[-]%.
Helpless, the army could only temporarily stop and start moving the tree. Seven or eight soldiers picked up a tree and moved it aside.
Suddenly, at this time, a jar of lit kerosene fell from the top of the canyon. The jar of kerosene fell to the ground and shattered, and the kerosene sputtered out, causing a burst of flames.
"Don't move! Ride across!"
Upon hearing this, the soldiers hurriedly mounted their horses, urging the horses to jump over trees blocking the road, or run through gaps.
These war horses were all good horses pulled from Liaodong or Bingzhou, and it was very easy to jump over a few fallen trees.
But things are not so simple. Along with the countless jars of kerosene, there are all kinds of logs and pegboards.
If you are accidentally hit by these things, you can only say that you should pay attention in your next life.
Following Li Pu's leadership, although they were ambushed, the army did not panic because of Li Pu's presence.
Li Pu, who was running with a big axe in front, was the hope of the army. As long as he was there, the army would not fail.
This has been proved by countless victories. Li Pu turned back and smashed a log that was about to hit him with an axe.
However, he was accidentally hit by a stone and fell to the ground with a whimper. Li Pu, who was on the horse's back, was thrown a dozen meters away.
"General!"
"General!"
Several soldiers hurriedly got off their horses and helped Li Pu who was planted on the ground.
All the generals and soldiers were all nervous. It was the first time they saw Li Pu so embarrassed.
Fortunately, Li Pu was not in serious trouble, he stood up and glanced at the various obstacles in front of him.
"Get on the horse! Rush with me!"
"But General, your horse..."
"Get on the horse! Charge with me! Didn't you hear?"
"promise!"
The soldiers rode on horses and followed behind Li Pu.
Li Pu raised his axe and ran. Without the horse, Li Pu felt more flexible.
The canyon is full of obstacles placed by the Xuzhou Army. Although Li Pu has learned riding skills from Zhao Yun for a period of time, he is still not very proficient.
Now that I have lost my war horse, I am much freer, and there are trees thrown from the valley everywhere along the way.
Fortunately, it was raining heavily the previous two days, and these people were too late to transport some heavy objects into the canyon.
For example, transporting some stones to build up, blocking the former army led by Li Pu in the canyon, can only turn back if they want to escape, and it is very difficult for the army to turn around, especially at this time.
Li Pu thought of the ruts on the marching road. Fortunately, they came quickly enough, otherwise, if he dared to delay for a day, the army would be wiped out today.
The moisture on the roads today has been dried by the sun, and some heavy loads are not as difficult to transport as they were two days ago.
It only took half a day for the Xuzhou army to block the canyon tightly.
"Rush out!" Li Pu blocked the falling stones from the canyon while clearing the obstacles on the road.
An axe split a fallen tree in two, and kicked it away.
After Li Pu kicked away, he saw an army lined up neatly in front of him, waiting for them at the Taniguchi.
