Three Kingdoms: The Guan Family's Rebellious Son, Long Blessing Jing Xiang

Chapter 601: Fight once and honor three generations of your family!

Huang Zhong's rapid march of 3,000 people actually crossed Micang Mountain, and only 800 people reached the other side of the mountain.

They were as if they were crawling around in mud, already in dire straits...

They really couldn't run anymore.

So much so that they will have a feeling in a trance, don't run away! If you run away from them again, your life will be lost!

If you run, you will die. If you don't run... you may not be safe, but you still have one life.

But this thought only stayed for a brief moment, and they gathered their minds. Yes, they have reached this point... If they don't run, won't all their previous efforts be in vain?

This battle was a disaster!

Those who run away are simply worse than death!

And... the most important thing is that they are still surrounded by these mountains. It is easy to go up the mountain but difficult to go down... Who knows... How long will it take for them to completely climb over the mountains one after another!

As for...their general Huang Zhong!

It seems that he is always the tireless person. Who knows... how much energy this old man still has. He seems to always be at the forefront, always pointing to the mountains in front of him with great energy and saying: "Climb this mountain and you will reach Mianshui." Now, everyone can take a rest and then set up an ambush..."

After that, there is no more.

Even if I try to crawl...I can't crawl anymore!

He immediately shouted to everyone: "Everyone gather around and listen to this general's order..."

What a mess!

So, he bared his teeth and gave the final order.

The scout's tone was urgent, and his unkempt appearance could not conceal his excitement.

Huang Zhong stood up with Yan Yan's help. In his boots, the foot-binding cloth had not been torn open for eight days. The Han water and the water seeping out from the broken calluses seemed to have glued the foot-binding cloth to his skin. Together.

call…

Bet that his soldiers can rush to Mianshui to set up an ambush before they all fall exhausted, bet that... Xia Houyuan is not marching fast enough in this mountainous area!

This is also the limit of what he can do!

The hills one after another seem endless. After climbing this one, there are countless more!

Huang Zhong couldn't help but exhale. His thoughts were spinning rapidly in his mind. He was thinking... this "big cake" was shattered, what should he change to continue painting...

But at this moment, the advance scout suddenly walked out from the dry woods, "General Huang...Old General Huang..."

"It's certain..." The scout nodded repeatedly, "We can probably tell from the smoke rising from the stove that there are more than 8,000 people, which exactly corresponds to the number of Xia Houyuan's troops. At this time... appearing here in Mianshui, except He, Xia Houyuan... seems to have no one else."

This is like the "dream building project" of later generations. As long as there are dreams, leeks will always grow taller, and one day the leeks will be cut off.

Haha, turn over your uncle’s…

"Ahead...ahead..." The scout pointed to the mountains in front, his throat was choked, and he cried with blurred tears, "Ahead is Mianshui...Ahead is Mianshui, and the enemy has not arrived yet...The enemy has not arrived yet...But, there are There are traces of mules and horses transporting troops and supplies nearby the enemy's outpost. It is obvious that the enemy is stationed on the other side of the Mian River..."

"Everyone stand up...climb over this big mountain in front of you...that's Mian..." Huang Zhong's rough shout came out again, no longer as clear and crisp as before. He must draw a pie as always... draw a big pie!

Thinking about it, the toes know that the pain will be unbearable and unspeakable until the day they are to be torn apart.

"Old General Huang..." Yan Yan couldn't hold it anymore, his voice was extremely hoarse, "Don't fool them, they no longer believe in the general..."

Huang Zhong paused for a moment. He looked at the veterans in front of him. At this moment...the eight hundred soldiers were also looking at him. Just as Yan Yan said, their eyes no longer had the trust and love they had before, but were more numb! insensitive!

It's like, they all know that Huang Zhong is a liar and he's just trying to make a fool of himself... But they all understand Huang Zhong, and they can't explain it clearly even if they don't see it through.

Only the familiar words "over this mountain..." repeated over and over again.

Alas, painting cakes is not an easy task.

Huh...huh...

Following the scout's words, Huang Zhong almost cried.

Along with the heavy exhalation, Huang Zhong was also gasping for air. He was also exhausted. He sat on a boulder and squinted his eyes slightly at the ragged team behind him. Many people were swaying. Akira moved forward numbly, the whole team seemed lifeless due to exhaustion...

Finally... finally here!

Finally... this hope was shattered. The soldiers really couldn't run anymore. In despair, they would rather lean on the tree roots and die here than continue to move forward. They really couldn't run anymore.

Apart from these four words, he couldn't think of any other words that could describe it more appropriately.

With a bit of melancholy, Huang Zhong looked at the few rays of sunlight filtering through the dry forest, and said to Yan Yan beside him, "You are right, they are all veterans, and they have persisted here. They are not exhausted... No one is here." Won’t stop…”

But obviously, he also underestimated the difficulty of this mountainous march. It was... He had a good guide. He avoided many unnecessary mountain roads, but he was galloping all the way. Even the guide fell 80%...

Immediately, the two of them looked at each other, especially Huang Zhong. He suddenly became 20% more energetic and his eyes were shining... There was color in his tired face. He quickly asked: "Are you sure? Are you sure that the Wei army will be stationed?" Is it on the other side of Mian River?"

For a moment, Huang Zhong hesitated. From the bottom of his heart, he began to question... His plan to climb over Micang Mountain was a little oxalic!

Maybe...he should just set up a city defense on the hilltop and wait for the army to arrive;

I really can’t walk anymore!

Although the scout was excited, his voice was not loud because of the ragged quilt. Only Huang Zhong and Yan Yan could hear him clearly.

call…

Maybe...he could not be so desperate, but...maybe, if he did that, he would lose a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to defeat the enemy and win his first victory.

"Would you like to continue? I won't force you, but as long as I, Huang Zhong, am not exhausted, I will continue to climb this mountain... those who still have the strength to walk will come with me, and those who can't walk... give them dry food and let them The ground is resting and waiting for rescue..."

This…

It stands to reason that this is the transition between winter and spring, and it is high in the mountains. These rapid marches have abandoned their heavy armor and only have light clothing for simple movement. They should be very cold, they should be shivering... shivering, but they were walking all the way. As they were running around, they were all dripping with sweat. If they took off their clothes and twisted them, they would be filled with sweat.

This…

However, this time... unlike before, no soldiers stood up and followed him.

Huang Zhong also knew that he was gambling.

The soldiers all had expressionless faces, more than 800 people, like... walking zombies, moving with zombie-like steps, surrounding them.

Huang Zhong jumped up the stone steps and said loudly: "Now give the order, rest on the spot, and prepare for battle. How much dry food is left, all are divided. There is not much left. Eat them all... wait until we cross this mountain." , in front of us is Mianshui, we will set up an ambush there, and when we win this battle, we will have plenty to eat and wear! All his food, grass, and baggage belonging to Xia Houyuan belong to us!"

Uh…

Do you want to eat clean food?

This sudden sentence made all the soldiers' eyes flash. This...must be true? Otherwise...how could Old General Huang Zhong let them eat clean food? burn one's boats?

Huang Zhong's words continued, and the flesh on his face trembled, revealing a somewhat ferocious look: "The enemy crossed the river and attacked halfway across the river. There was no need for short knives or anything like that. They all used the 'compound bow' and the ' The crossbows are ready. When the enemy crosses the river from the ford, they will launch a volley of crossbows. Madam Huang... has increased the number of crossbow bolts from fifty to a hundred. It only takes a few rounds of volleys. Xia Houyuan is the Attribute Even the rabbits will die in this river!"

The repeating crossbow has a close range and high density, and is used for ambushes and raids;

The Mongolian compound bow has a long range and is used to chase enemies...

Huang Zhong's words have shown that he will use the advantage of "long-range" crossbows to defeat the enemy halfway!

This…

If you say what Huang Zhong said just now, it just makes everyone doubt... What he said may be true. After climbing this mountain... maybe we can really reach Mianshui!

Can actually reach the place where the enemy is ambushed.

So now... I no longer need the dagger, and even the shooting method of the crossbow has been decided.

This... seems to be completely true!

Huang Zhong's voice still did not stop, "I know you are all working hard, but making great achievements is right in front of you. They all say that Xia Houyuan has five hundred in three days and one thousand in six days. We have traveled a full thousand and five hundred miles in these eight and a half days, and we still can't do it." It’s all mountain roads… just for this moment!”

At this point, Huang Zhong paused and his words became more serious, "Yes, we only have 800 people, and the enemy has 8,000. We can win with less... It takes luck to win, but you all listen, I I didn’t believe in luck before, but...in Jingzhou, I really witnessed some bullshit luck, Yun Qi has always been man-made!"

"Jingzhou, Jingnan...are the places where you were born and raised. The children of Soochow tried to take advantage of it, but Guan Yunqi attacked Jiangdong and captured it with one move... Many people said that this was luck! But I came back from there, and I know that this This is the situation he, Guan Lin, has set up over the past year. He has been waiting for the day when Dongwu Xiaoer betrays his trust! Haha? Is this still luck? Guan Yunqi can do this, turn the tide, and plan to this point. All luck. We must stand on his side! And today we...the sufferings we have suffered in the past eight days are all for the luck of this battle!...Even if you don't think so much, you also think about your broken legs, Huh... If we don’t have a good fight in this battle, will it be worth the hardship and suffering that your old legs have endured in the past eight days?"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but pause, and then his voice rose a bit, and he pointed to the back of the mountain in front of him, "Today, we will climb over this mountain, and then set up an ambush in Mianshui. Early tomorrow morning... the bandit army is coming, and they are trapped." In the water, you can be slaughtered by us like river turtles. When you were in Jingnan, you followed Huang Zhong. We have fought countless ambushes like this, but this time is a great achievement! Contribution to success, glory and wealth, Whether you can return home in glory in the future... it’s now! Fight once and honor three generations of your family! It’s more than enough!"

call…

Huang Zhong's words triggered waves of heavy exhalations.

All of a sudden, the indifference and fatigue of the soldiers disappeared, replaced by a pair of tormented eyes, suddenly oozing green light.

Will I be able to return home in glory in the future? It’s now!

Fight once and be honored for three generations!

These few words seemed to inspire all their fighting spirit.

"Fuck-"

"It's done——" "Fight it once, Eisandai——"

"The general said it well. Isn't it just to hang your head on your waist in this life just to return home in glory in the future?"

One by one, the soldiers suddenly became energetic and aroused high fighting spirit.

When Huang Zhong listened to these passionate and inspiring words, the stone hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground safely.

Haha, this guy Guan Lin helped him again.

What bullshit luck! Haha, the power of role models is infinite, and it is the ultimate source of motivation for leeks to rise!

...

After boosting his morale, Huang Zhong pulled Yan Yan aside.

"General Huang? You..."

"I'm going to use that thing?"

what…

Huang Zhong's words startled Yan Yan, who waved her hands as if instinctively, "You mean? The gunpowder whip and arrow developed by Mrs. Huang?"

At the mention of gunpowder whips and arrows, Yan Yan trembled all over...

Speaking of which, since Huang Yueying developed black gunpowder, these generals have witnessed the power of black gunpowder.

This power depends on the amount of black powder... If the amount is sufficient, it will not be difficult to blow up the entire city of Chengdu.

As for the gunpowder whip arrow, it combines gunpowder and crossbow arrows. It is a special kind of arrow... which is equivalent to the arrow being shot into an "explosion arrow"!

In addition, Huang Yueying boldly added white phosphorus into it.

The exploded gunpowder whips and arrows can ignite flames within a range, and even water... cannot extinguish the flames!

Huang Zhong brought some with him on this trip, just to take precautions...

And because "gunpowder whips and arrows" have never been used on the battlefield, it is unknown what consequences it will have on the battlefield and whether it will hurt one's own people.

Therefore, Yan Yan was shocked...

"Exactly!"

But Huang Zhong nodded heavily, as if he had already made a decision.

Yan Yan advised: "Our army marched here in a hurry and defeated the enemy halfway. We are already sure of victory... Why? We still need to use this gunpowder whip and arrow... What if it doesn't work well and explodes in our camp, but..."

Before Yan Yan could finish speaking, Huang Zhong stretched out his hand to stop Yan Yan's words, "Xie Bo (Yan Yan), I know what you are worried about, but..."

Having said this, Huang Zhong looked back at the soldiers behind him. Even though their fighting spirit was much higher, there was still a look of fatigue on their cheeks.

Huang Zhong lowered his voice and said solemnly, "Even if this is a half-crossing attack on the enemy, this battle can only be fought quickly. Our brothers' bodies and bones cannot last long, so...even if I have to take some risks, I have decided to use This gunpowder whip and arrow!”

Following Huang Zhong's words, Yan Yan pondered for a moment and then nodded heavily.

"General, I understand! General, I will make arrangements!"

...

...

The morning light was dim, and the Xia Houyuan camp on the north bank of Mianshui River had finished cooking. The soldiers of the three armies were recharging their energy, finally had a full meal, and made the most adequate preparations.

Now they have formed a formation on the north bank of Mianshui River. They are just waiting for their commander's order to cross the water immediately... to climb over Micang Mountain.

"Commander Father..." Xia Houyuan's eldest son Xia Houheng reported to his father, "All soldiers are fully prepared, and food supply lines will be established with the emergency march to ensure that food is delivered to the mountain as soon as possible... If the baggage is heavy, it cannot be carried ...It’s just piled up on the north bank, but don’t worry, father, someone has been assigned to take care of the child to make sure it won’t be lost or damaged!”

Xia Houheng specifically mentioned "dedicated care".

Logically speaking...this kind of military supplies and weapons issues are all logistical issues. As the commander-in-chief of the three armies, Xia Houyuan should not take them too seriously.

But... Xia Houheng knows his father. He has always been particularly concerned about the consumption and wear and tear of these logistics. It seems to be because his family was poor when he was young, right? He developed a good habit of cherishing all military supplies and weapons!

No... to be precise, it's "habit"!

After hearing what his son said, Xiahou Yuan nodded, as if relieved. He raised his head and looked at the mountains in the distance, and then asked Xiahou Ba: "Is there any flying pigeon coming? Where is the Shu army now?"

"It's still the south bank of the Han River..." Xiahouba replied directly, "The flying pigeons we just received, the smoke from the Shu army are all over the south bank of the Han River. It seems that facing Micang Mountain, the Shu army is also quite wary and does not dare to take it easy. Leap over!"

After receiving such a reply, Xia Houyuan seemed quite satisfied, "Haha..." He said with a slight smile: "People are old and incompetent, and gods are old and ineffective! That Huang Zhong is more timid than I thought. Okay, pass on my military order. , board the boat and cross the Mianshui——"

"Here——"

"Here——"

Following Xia Houheng and Xia Houba's response.

"woo woo woo woo--"

The trumpet sounded loudly, and a mighty eight thousand elites boarded the ship in an orderly manner. This Cao Wei Zhong, this Xia Houyuan's men, the Speed ​​Battalion who is very good at "thousands of miles of attack" set sail!

Looking at the other side…

Among the trees on both sides of Mian River... "General Huang, the enemy is blowing the trumpet, and they are probably about to cross the river..."

Yan Yan reminded Huang Zhong.

Huang Zhong's eyes narrowed, staring coldly and closely at the Mian Shui. His mood was excited and surging, but he behaved very calmly and calmly.

It was as if everything that was about to happen was expected by him.

"Don't panic, let the Wei army's front army go over first. We will attack its front army with repeated crossbows and cut off its retreat with gunpowder whips and arrows. In this battle, we can capture the thief and the king... In this battle, if we can capture Xia Houyuan, The battlefield in Hanzhong is now stable!"

Huang Zhong's voice was not loud, but every word seemed to have a ring to it.

His hand tightly held the Mongolian compound bow at his side, his eyes became more and more sharp, and the sharpness in the awl filled his pupils!

Close...close...

As the Wei army's fleet approached rapidly, Huang Zhong's mood could not be higher, and the big bow in his hand also trembled faintly with hunger and thirst, as if... this Mongolian big bow had been foreshadowed.

After shooting Xiahou Dun's right eye, it... will usher in another qualitative leap in the "Weapon Spectrum" ranking!

Finally... Wei Jun's fleet has arrived at the ambush location.

Huang Zhong immediately ordered, "Blow the trumpet! Fire arrows——"

Immediately…

"woo woo woo woo--"

Belonging to the Shu army, to Huang Zhong, to his Jingnan soldiers who had gone through many hardships, and to the eight hundred warriors who had persevered, the horns sounded loudly.

then…

"Whoosh whoosh—"

"Swish swish swish——"

When the crossbow fires, the crossbow arrows shoot out densely like locusts, like raindrops, like waterfalls.

One after another, the compound bows were drawn into a full moon... With the violent sound of "Zheng, Zheng", the gunpowder whip arrows drew a crescent-like arc in the air and shot into the middle of the Wei army's fleet...

then…

"boom…"

"boom…"

"Rumble..."

Explosions resounded in the Mian River. For a moment, flames shot into the sky. The entire Mian River... the entire Wei army's fleet, inside and outside, up and down, were all in flames, killing people one by one. Tongues of fire!

...
