Chapter 349: Soaring into the sky, Su Yaofei seizes Gouzi City (4K4)

"Lord Su, what should we do?" asked Lu Bu.

Difficulty.

Complex and difficult roads, harsh and harsh environment, and an enemy ready for battle.

It is no wonder that Tian Kai, Gongsun Ji, Gongsun Yue and others in Lulong Pass were not optimistic about Su Yao's actions.

In the dim night, Su Yao stared at the hazy Gouzi City without saying a word.

Tian Chou saw this, thought for a moment, and then bowed and said:

"There is another way around this place."

Take the southern route, cross the mountains, then turn east, take a more inner road, go north along the Yu River, pass Bailang Mountain, and reach Guanzi City.

This is a safer path.

On the inner line, along the undulating ridges, there is the Yan Great Wall, which was built since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period and connects all the way to Liucheng.

"But this route is quite long and I'm afraid we won't be able to arrive before dawn tomorrow."

As soon as Tian Chou finished speaking, Su Yao continued:

"The road below White Wolf Mountain is open. If we go there at daybreak, we will surely be discovered by the Wuhuan scouts."

Bailang Mountain is the place where Cao Cao fought against the Wuhuan and Zhang Liao killed Tadun in history.

Su Yao discovered the problem with this place as soon as he looked at the map.

If they went there, they would have to delay for at least a day to avoid the scouts.

And with every additional day they spent marching in the snow, their non-combat losses increased.

On snowy nights in the cold winter in the north, the temperature can easily drop below minus 20 degrees Celsius.

Many of the 400 cavalrymen brought this time were recruited from the armies of the Central Plains princes.

Even wearing thick fur coats, it is difficult to adapt to such a harsh climate.

In just a few hours, the cold weather caused more than 20 people to fall behind.

In order to ensure the success rate of the sneak attack, it was obviously impossible for them to make a fire to keep warm during the day.

Well, if they could fight for another day and night, Su Yao roughly calculated that before they even engage the enemy, more than half of his men would be lost.

This is an absolutely unacceptable loss.

"Take it down." Su Yao said firmly.

"what?"

"What??"

Su Yao's words surprised everyone around him.

Although Gouzi City is small, it is indeed used for military purposes.

Now that the city has been captured by Wuhuan, I think the defenders in the city are on high alert.

This Lord Su actually decided to attack by force?
However, Su Yao seemed unusually determined.

"We must take Gouzi City, otherwise our actions will be exposed and all our efforts will be in vain." Su Yao said in a deep voice.

"But, my lord, we only have 400 cavalrymen, and this city can accommodate at least 1,200 defenders. If the Wuhuan people are stuffed in, it will be too many," Tian Chou asked worriedly.

As soon as Tian Chou finished speaking, Qian Zhao also frowned and said:
"Even if you have elite soldiers and generals, each of whom can defeat ten enemies with one, we are just cavalrymen and have no siege equipment."

Qian Zhao glanced at the bare environment around the valley and shook his head.
"If we go up the mountain to cut wood now, it will probably take until dawn. It's better to take a detour."

Then, when Qian Zhao was about to persuade him again, Liu Bei stood up, bowed and asked:

"Have you deployed internal forces in this city?"

Internal response?

As soon as Liu Bei finished speaking, many people showed expressions of sudden enlightenment.

Except for a few people, most of them had experienced Su Yao's invincible battles against the two fortified cities during the Northern Expedition.

It is clear what role it should play.

If there is an insider who can open the door, then this small Gouzi City will obviously be no problem.

However.
"An insider? Of course there is no such thing."

The vast frontier area has exceeded the limits of Su Yao's intelligence capabilities.

The informant who followed Zhang Ju out of the border has not sent back any news yet.

It was naturally impossible for him to place any accomplices here.

"This"

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Without the help of an insider to open the gate, how can this group of cavalrymen wrapped up like dumplings attack the city?

In response to this, Su Yao laughed three times:
“That was so relaxing.”

“It’s so relaxing~”

On the city wall of Gouzi City, the Wuhuan warrior in charge of the night duty, the captain Wulushai, held the jar of wine and took a sip.

"Brother, you are not allowed to drink alcohol while on duty in the army." Adjutant Wu Luze persuaded him, holding the wine jar.

His eyes were fixed outside.

In the dim night, the narrow river valley seemed to be hiding some ferocious beast, and was full of danger.

"Brother, is it necessary to be so serious?"

Ulusai pushed his brother's hand away, took another sip of wine, and said with a smile:
"We Wuhuan warriors are good at fighting and drinking, so why would we need all those Han Chinese rules?"

The rules of the Han people.

Yes, the Wuhuan people never banned alcohol in the army.

These were all lessons Qiuliju learned after his defeat in Pingyuan.

Deeply aware of the poor discipline of the Wuhuan soldiers, they introduced the practice of learning from the Han army's experience.

But it is obvious that for many people, these rules are useless.

"If we are not allowed to drink alcohol during this cold night watch, wouldn't that mean we are not allowed to survive?"

Seeing that persuasion was useless, Wu Luze shook his head and sighed:
"We just sent off the Han Dynasty's envoys a few days ago. Now they all know that the king has besieged the White Horse Chief."

"Our Gouzi City is an outpost fortress. If the Han soldiers come to rescue, we will be the first to bear the brunt."

"Brother, you must pay attention to this."

Upon hearing this, Ulusai frowned, as if he felt that his brother's words made some sense, but then he waved his hand and muttered nonchalantly:

"What a nagging!"

"Dude, you're too nervous."

"The Han envoy has only been away for one day. How could their army arrive so quickly?"

"Besides, what if they come?"

"Not only is Gouzi City extremely strong, but we also have a garrison of 2,000 men. What are you afraid of?"

Ulusai said confidently:

"Besides, I am the captain of a thousand men and I am already here. How can you say that I don't take it seriously?"

"I, your brother, just drank a few sips to warm myself up. I am much more responsible than that chief in the city who lies on women's bellies all day, right?"

"Come on, have a drink to warm yourself up."

As he spoke, Ulusai raised the wine jar and handed it to his brother, saying:
"This is what happens when young people first go to the battlefield, don't be nervous.

As long as those Han people don't have wings, even if there is an emergency, we will have no problem holding out until the king comes to help."

Wu Luze wanted to say something else, but seeing that his elder brother was already a little impatient, he had to give up.

At least there is nothing wrong with what my brother said at the end.

This Gouzi City with its high walls and strong fortifications does have the capital to do so.

Although this fortress is small, it is a standard military stronghold. The city wall alone is more than two meters high. It is second only to Liucheng and has the same specifications as Guanzicheng.

On that day, if it weren't for the help of the Wuhuan fellows living in the city, they would not have been able to take over this place so easily.

Now that they have eliminated all Han resistance in the city, he has personally arranged several groups of sentries to patrol outside the city at night.

It seems that unless those Han soldiers grow wings and can fly in, they can rest assured in this Hook City.

Thinking of this, Wuluze took the jar of wine from his elder brother, took a sip, and felt depressed.

In the end, it’s because I haven’t practiced enough.

However, at this moment, there was a sudden snap and the wine jar fell to the ground and broke into pieces.

Wu Luze widened his eyes and looked ahead.

Suddenly, a figure wearing thick fur coat and carrying a huge sword on his back leaped out of the darkness and onto the wall in front of the guards on the city wall. Under the moonlight, his figure flashed with an enchanting light.

"You bastard, die!" Su Yao shouted.

The night is dark and the wind is freezing.

On the city wall, the Wuhuan warriors on guard were wrapped in thick furs and huddled behind the battlements, watching their surroundings vigilantly in the faint light of the fire.

The night was so quiet that the only sounds you could hear were the falling snowflakes and the occasional howl of a wolf in the distance.

Suddenly, a cry broke the dead silence of the night:
"Wha, who is it?!"

Then, a black shadow quickly jumped up from the shadow of the city wall, like a nimble leopard, and flew straight to the top of the city wall. "Fly, fly up!"

Another cry of surprise was heard, and the Wuhuan soldiers on the top of the city widened their eyes in shock. They saw the black shadow stepping on the city wall, turning lightly, and standing steadily on the top of the city.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack——"

This sudden change threw the Wuhuan soldiers who were patrolling and guarding the city walls into chaos.

They never imagined that on this windy and snowy night, there would be enemies so bold as to attack the city.

Especially the two brothers Ulusai on the gatehouse at the back were so shocked that their jaws dropped.

Just now, the two were still saying that Han people don't have wings.

How come someone flew up in the blink of an eye?

This is a city wall that is nearly three meters high!
The Wuhuan soldiers were shocked, but Su Yao would not just sit there and do nothing.

Along with the screams and sounds of enemy attacks, Su Yao's Mo Dao, as sharp as snow, flew up and down, and instantly cut the two foolish soldiers beside him in half.

Such brutality instantly angered the surrounding Wuhuan warriors.

At this critical moment, the Wuhuan warriors, inspired by their bloodiness and with their adrenaline rushing, rushed forward without thinking, waving their long swords.

then
"Trash fish."

"Scum."

"die!"

Su Yao swung the Mo Dao in his hand left and right, and every roar meant the death of a life.

Either beheaded or beheaded, in just a few breaths, these Wuhuan soldiers who had fought bravely and bravely were turned into a pile of broken limbs on the ground.

"what?!"

"That's not good."

"Someone, come quickly!"

The faster the blood and courage rise, the faster the retreat.

This horrific killing scare the soldiers behind who had not yet caught up.

Their steps became heavy, and after shouting, they turned around and ran.

He didn't dare to fight again and just wanted to escape.

However, all this is naturally in vain.

"Don't leave the trash!"

Su Yao was like a tiger out of a cage. In the blink of an eye, he arrived beside the defeated soldiers. A cold light flashed, blood splattered everywhere, and the big head flew into the sky.

This is truly a ruthless killing.

Just when the Wuhuan soldiers were panicking, Su Yao easily killed all the challengers who rushed up with one sword.

"Damn it, it's too strong."

"What to do, what to do?"

The remaining guards were all dumbfounded. They didn't even figure out who this person who suddenly flew up was, and more than a dozen of their compatriots had already been killed.

Such decisive and brutal killing made the weapons in their hands become extremely heavy, and many of them were trembling with fear and wanted to drop their weapons and run away.

At this moment, Wu Luze stood up and shouted:

"Hold on, don't panic!"

"He's only one person!"

A person.

Yes, after discovering something was wrong, Wu Luze rushed over as soon as possible and quickly sorted out the current situation.

Although I don’t know how this person got up there.

However, this is at most just one person's courage.

"Surround him and don't let him run."

"The front row holds up its shields to maintain the line of defense, and the back row of archers prepare to fire a volley."

"Hey? The morale is pretty good."

Su Yao raised his eyebrows. He was used to being defeated at the slightest provocation, but he was a little surprised that these people could organize and fight back in an orderly manner.

But that's about it.

This passage on the city wall, where no more than three people could walk side by side, was simply the perfect stage for him to kill.

Just as these soldiers took out their shields, stood shoulder to shoulder and tried to squeeze Su Yao's space to move.

Su Yao rushed forward and swept his huge sword across.
In an instant, the row of soldiers holding shields were smashed and the soldiers flew away.

This kind of simple wooden shield is extremely easy to break.

"you"

"No!"

Having lost the protection of the shieldmen in the front row, the archers in the back row were holding the arrows that had not yet been drawn on their bows, and they were immediately terrified.

Not in a scary way, but in a physical sense.

After Su Yao cleared the melee shield soldiers, he swung his hand back and smashed the archers to pieces with his Mo Dao.

"Come on, come again!"

As he spoke, Su Yao's eyes were already fixed on Wu Luze who was directing the battle in the back row.

"madman!"

Wu Luze was furious:
"Shoot the arrow, shoot the arrow quickly!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of a rain of arrows whizzed around from behind Su Yao.

At the same time, Su Yao turned into lightning, rushed forward, wielding the Mo Dao and moving forward courageously.

Not only did he use his speed to dodge the rain of arrows behind him, but he also created a bloody storm on the top of the wall.

"Eat my windmill!"

The huge Mo Dao formed a circle in his hand and moved forward, spreading death along the way.

Such a horrifying scene finally forced these Wuhuan warriors to stay in Bengbu.

The enemies in front of them dropped their weapons and ran away.

"Monster, monster!"

"Run quickly——"

Seeing this scene, Wu Luze stamped his feet and shouted:
"Waste, coward!"

"Stop him, stop him!"

But no one paid any attention to him.

It has collapsed.

The little bit of morale that was boosted by Wu Luze was completely wiped out by Su Yao's brutal blow.

They are not cowards, but no one would be willing to do it if it would only mean their death in vain.

In this way, Su Yao chased the deserter and rushed straight to the gate tower.

Wu Luze, who was there, drew out his long sword and hesitated to move forward when facing Su Yao's approach.

He knew that as the general officer of these people, the time had come for him to step up.

However, Su Yao's bravery made him hesitate.

He turned around and looked at his brother, but was stunned.

"Big brother?"

He saw that the captain of the thousand-man army whom he respected had purple lips, a pale face, and his hands were shaking constantly.

"He is here."

This brutal and decisive killing, as well as the fur coat stained red with blood, almost instantly brought Urusai's memory back to the battlefield of the Battle of the Plains in the past.

At that time, he and his team intercepted Su Yao who was about to return to the city.

Facing the siege of thousands of them, the red-robed general became more and more courageous, charging left and right, killing many of their soldiers and generals, and causing them to fall to the ground.

Thanks to his cleverness, he decisively watched the situation and saved his life after realizing that something was wrong, so he did not end up like the other warriors.

After finally escaping back to the frontier, I lived a peaceful life for a while, but I didn't expect
"Quick, run!"

With a snap, Ulusai threw away his long sword, turned around and ran away, leaving Uluze stunned on the spot.

Is this the warrior Ulusai whom he has admired since childhood?
As soon as you, the commander, ran away,

How could their defense be defeated by just one person?

There was a fierce struggle in his brain, but looking at Su Yao who was getting closer and closer, he still didn't dare to pick up the knife to fight himself. He could only grit his teeth and rush to the stairs to follow his brother.

However, he did not expect that it was this moment of hesitation and struggle in his mind that cost Qingqing her life.

“Miscellaneous fish—die!”

In the panicked crowd, a long knife flew over and instantly cut off Wuluze's head.

The only brave officer on the city wall - a soldier.
