The last three kingdoms

Chapter 147 Fierce Battle (Fourth Watch for Support)

Liu Yin smiled slightly and said: "Deng Ai's trick is nothing, it's just throwing stones to ask for directions. Now that the two sides are heavily guarded and it is difficult to communicate carefully, Deng Ai can't secretly steal the military information of Jingjun Mountain, so he can only be clear. The way to send envoys here, under the guise of persuading surrender, is actually to spy on intelligence."

Zhang Le was puzzled again and said: "Since you know Deng Ai's intention, brother, why did you let those envoys go up the mountain, why didn't you kill them all, so that Deng Aike would not know about the situation in Jingjun Mountain. "

Liu Yin said leisurely: "If you don't disclose some information to Deng Ai, how can Deng Ai come to attack Jingjun Mountain with all his heart? In the last battle, he had to use the Yuan Rong Crossbow. This undoubtedly made Deng Ai suspect that there were the main force of the Han army stationed on the mountain and even There is a general stationed there. If he fails to launch a tentative attack again, Deng Ai may give up the road to Jiangyou and take another road. After all, Jingjun Mountain can only block Deng Ai from going to Jiangyou. If Deng Ai attacks Jiange or other places, there is no point in defending Jingjun Mountain, and Deng Ai can still go around hundreds of miles away."

"It turns out that the eldest brother deliberately let Deng Ai know the situation on the top of the mountain, showing his weakness to the enemy, and made Deng Ai determined to go this way, so we can drag him to the foot of Jingjun Mountain."

"That's right, if my predictions are correct, Deng Ai must be running out of food and grass now. Taking dangerous paths can serve as a surprise attack, but the benefits and disadvantages come with them. If they are trapped in the canyon and cannot move forward, they will die. Therefore, the most urgent thing for Deng Ai now is to open up the Yinping Trail. Only by entering the plains to obtain food and grass is his only chance to escape, so Deng Ai will definitely attack Jingjun Mountain at all costs. Show the enemy To be weak is to give Deng Ai an illusion that it is easy to break through Jingjun Mountain, and he doesn't have to change to other paths at all."

Zhang Le slapped his head, and suddenly said: "No wonder the eldest brother has been unwilling to use firearms before, so he kept them to deal with Deng Ai."

Liu Yin said with a smile: "How can I easily leak my hole cards to him? Deng Ai thinks he has a plan and knows the reality of Jingjun Mountain. How can he know that I have even bigger 'surprises' for him? Fighting is not only about fighting strength, but more importantly, fighting wits, especially these famous veterans, they really can't deal with them without using their brains more."

Zhang Le laughed and said: "Brother has clever calculations, I don't think there is any opponent in this world except Zhuge Wuhou.

Liu Yin chuckled, compared with Zhuge Liang, who was so wise and almost a monster, he was more than a star and a half behind. "Order the teams to guard their positions day and night, and the Wei army will attack at any time."

There was almost no deviation from Liu Yin's prediction. Wei Jun suddenly launched a sneak attack in the middle of the night. There was no drumming or shouting. A team of thousands of people dressed in black and armor quietly approached the top of the mountain under the cover of night.

At the moment, it is Zhao Zhuo's third group of family soldiers who are on duty on the top of the mountain.It was not Zhao Zhuo's turn to fight in the first two battles, Zhao Zhuo had been holding back his energy secretly for a long time, after a whole day of rest during the day, the soldiers were refreshed, without any tiredness, holding their bows and crossbows tightly, Through the gap in the stone wall, closely watching the movement on the mountain road.

The first to discover the traces of the Wei soldiers was the observation post at a high place. The observation post was located at a high position, and the situation in front of them could be seen at a glance. The sentinels also chose people with excellent eyesight. Four or five hundred steps away from the top of the mountain, they were still spotted by sharp-eyed sentries.

"Everyone is there, listen to my password and prepare to fight!" Zhao Zhuo gave the order in a low voice, staring ahead, waiting for those Wei soldiers to enter the range of bows and arrows.

These Wei soldiers are the night attack team deliberately selected by Deng Ai. They are capable of night combat and quick in action. If the enemy is not prepared, they can easily attack the target directly.Of course, it was impossible for Deng Ai to expect to easily take down Jingjun Mountain through a sneak attack. He still had a deep understanding of this Liu Yin, and he was able to lead hundreds of people in two districts to defeat the Xiandeng camp with 3000 people twice. This ability is enough to impress Deng Ai.

The night attack on the first camp was completely seizing the opportunity of the negligence of the first camp. Although Liu Yin's command ability is not high, but since he dared to do it, it shows that this person is bold and careful, and is good at taking advantage of all opportunities. Many generals who are more cautious often have to weigh it again and again when the opportunity is in front of them, for fear of being caught in a trap. This person has the courage of a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers.And those who dare to make a surprise attack are often the ones with the strictest defense. Deng Ai had already predicted that this battle would not be easy.

However, Deng Ai still has sufficient self-confidence. He has dozens of times more troops than his opponent. There is no reason why he can't take down a small Jingjun Mountain. No matter how dangerous the mountain road is, no matter how strong the defense is, relying on crowd tactics is enough. Can wear them down.

Wei Bing quickly climbed the steep mountain road. For them, the road of Jingjun Mountain was smoother than that of Motian Ridge. They could vaguely see the black shadow-like stone wall in front of them. Stone wall, you can rush to the top of the mountain.However, it seemed that no sound could be heard on the silent mountain top. These Wei soldiers secretly rejoiced, accelerated their marching speed, and rushed towards the top of the mountain recklessly.

"Fire the arrows!" Zhao Zhuo gave an order, and there were shouts from behind the stone wall, and the cold arrows flew over, and the Wei soldiers who rushed to the front unfortunately fell on the mountain road.Countless torches were thrown from behind the stone wall and onto the mountain road, illuminating the mountain road.

To act in the dark, the night is the best cover. Zhao Zhuo threw a lot of torches outward, in order to expose the target of Wei Bing and provide targets for his own people to shoot.

Zhao Zhuo not only used Yuanrong crossbows, but also used gunpowder arrows. Although the killing power of gunpowder arrows is limited, after the gunpowder arrows detonate, they can pull all the Wei troops in an entire area out of the darkness, providing precision for Yuanrong crossbows and other crossbows. hit target.

In an instant, the rows of gunpowder arrows pulled a string of sparks, like a meteor rainstorm in the dark night, radiant and beautiful, and the loud sound and dazzling fire after the explosion were just like a meteor shower. Gorgeous fireworks display.

However, those Wei soldiers who have never seen what gunpowder are are suffering. Although those explosions are rarely fatal, it is common to lose a finger, blind an eye, or an ear. However, the panic these explosions brought to them was enormous. The flames exposed their positions, and the effect of the night attack no longer existed, but the soldiers of Shu who hid in the dark could effectively attack them. Facing the rain of arrows, it was difficult for Wei Bing to move forward.

This was destined to be a failed night attack.
