The last three kingdoms

Chapter 302 Crossing the Snow Peak ([-])

After a short rest, the Shu army embarked on the journey again, this time the goal was the third snow mountain - Yakexia Mountain.

From Mengbi Mountain to Yakexia Mountain, there is a distance of two to three hundred miles. This is a relatively long and narrow valley, with trickling streams, green grass, and exotic flowers and plants. The survival order of natural selection.

This is also the most comfortable march on the way to the north. Liu Yin deliberately lowered the speed of the march, so that the Shu soldiers could recharge their batteries and maintain the best physical condition. When camping at night, you can see the burning bonfires in each camp and smell the tempting aroma of barbecue.

After crossing two snow-capped mountains in succession, the morale and morale of the Shu army have reached the peak. The fighting spirit is high and the desire to advance is extremely strong.

But this optimistic state did not affect Liu Yin. No matter what time, Liu Yin was calm and cautious. It is estimated that Liu Yin would never relax until he walked out of the snowy mountains and grasslands.

When A Jian explored the road earlier, Liu Yin only asked him to find out the conditions of the two mountains, Jiajin Mountain and Mengbi Mountain. As for the Yakexia Mountain, Changde Mountain and Dagu Mountain, which are farther away, A Jian did not arrive. The main reason is the tight time. No matter how strong A Jian is, he will not be able to go back and forth to the ten snow-capped mountains after all.

Liu Yin still has a deep impression on the remaining three snow-capped mountains. Compared with the previous two snow-capped mountains, which are far apart, these three snow-capped mountains are almost connected together. The Red Army once launched assaults within five days , completed the crossing of the three snow mountains.Now Liu Yin also had no choice but to make a surprise climb over the three snow-capped mountains.

This will be one of the most severe tests for the Shu army on its way to the north. The soldiers of the Shu army must spend at least five or six days in the ice and snow. The hardships and difficulties are self-evident.

But here, there is no turning back, no matter how hard it is, we must persevere.

Yakexia Snow Mountain is right in front of you. Looking at Jiajin Mountain and Mengbi Mountain, Liu Yin already knows that the area of ​​snow mountains is much wider than that of later generations. When Liu Yin walked the Long March again, the snow on Yakexia Snow Mountain was similar It has almost melted away. Except for some scattered snow on the top of the mountain, it is difficult to see the condition of the snow mountain when the Red Army crossed it.

But now it is obviously different. As the latitude increases, the snow line of Yakexia Mountain is obviously lower than that of Jiajin Mountain and Mengbi Mountain.

Compared with Jiajin Mountain, which is nearly 5000 meters above sea level, the remaining three snow-capped mountains are a bit shorter, but these three snow-capped mountains are connected together, which undoubtedly increases the difficulty of climbing a lot.

After arriving at Yakexia Mountain, Liu Yin rested for another day and made full preparations. At dawn the next day, he launched an attack on Yakexia Snow Mountain.

The Daxue Mountain showed its ferocious side again. When Wudangying just arrived at Yakexia Mountain Pass, it was suddenly attacked by hail. The hail in the snow mountain was not like the hail in the plain area, but at most it was as big as soybeans. The hail here , almost the size of an egg, was beaten down head and face.The shield soldiers are better, they can use their shields to cover the top of their heads and resist the surprise attack of hail. The Shu soldiers were all bruised and swollen, complaining endlessly.

After a burst of hail, there was another gust of wind, which rolled up the snow on the mountain and howled, making people feel bitingly cold. Within a few meters, the snow and fog were so dense that it was difficult to discern the road under their feet.

The most unbearable thing was the long cold night, and there was a strong wind at night, just like an angry mountain god, who issued an order to drive away these uninvited guests who broke into its territory, and forced the Shu soldiers to surrender with wind knives and frost swords.

There is only a narrow river valley between the two mountains, and the snow is spreading downwards, almost reaching the bank of the river valley. Liu Yin's leading troops rushed to the small river valley before nightfall, while the trailing army inevitably To stay at the top of the mountain.

The coldness on the snow-capped mountains at night is penetrating to the bone marrow. Coupled with the blizzard, any winter clothes are like a thin piece of paper at this moment. It is difficult to resist the bitter cold wind. See the sunrise the next day.

However, the morale of the Shu army did not collapse because of this. In the face of adversity, they can burst out amazing energy and meet the challenges of nature with a fearless spirit.

Yakexia Snow Mountain was trampled underfoot, and Changde Mountain was also conquered one after another. The screaming warriors in Wudang Camp did not stop at all, and charged towards Dagu Mountain in one go.

The knee-deep snow made it difficult for the soldiers of the Shu army to walk, and the biting cold wind made the soldiers chatter their teeth. Getting to this point was definitely a battle of wills.The predecessor of Wudangying was Wudang Flying Army. This famous army is famous for its iron blood. Although Wudangying inherited the fine tradition of Wudang Flying Army, it was only assembled on the eve of the northward march, but that This kind of cohesion has never been lost. When all the soldiers passed through the Dagushan pass step by step, everyone believed that the mighty army from the past had returned.

When the leather boots of the soldiers of Wudang Battalion stepped on the sandy and gravel ground without ice and snow, bursts of cheers burst out uncontrollably.

The five snow-capped mountains finally surrendered to the feet of the Shu army. An unprecedented feat was born. The Shu army officers and soldiers burst into tears and cheered happily.

Along the way, there have been too many difficulties and hardships, but at the moment of final victory, all the efforts have been rewarded.

The entire army filed down, reaching the foot of Dagu Mountain.

The wind stopped, the snow stopped, and at the last moment of crossing the Snow Mountain, the weather turned out to be surprisingly good, as if it was sending off the winners.

Liu Yin silently checked the descending team, followed by Fu Qian and Zhang Le led Yang Anying down the mountain, followed by Gaoyuan's Hubu battalion and Deng Pu's tiger cavalry battalion, the left army and the middle army completed the crossing After that, it was Luo Xi's Yong'an camp that appeared in Liu Yin's sight.

Now only the Baidi Battalion led by Zhuge Shang was left with the post-break mission. After they descended the mountain, the entire operation of crossing the snow-capped mountain was considered to have come to an end.

But at this moment, a deafening roar suddenly sounded from the top of Dagu Mountain, and Liu Yin's face suddenly turned pale.
