Chapter 674: Fujian Crisis

Xianxia Pass is located at the junction of Zhejiang, Jiangxi and Fujian provinces. It was called Guquan Pass in ancient times. The ancients called "the key of two Zhejiangs and the throat of entering Fujian". It has always been a place that military strategists must fight for.

Xianxia Pass City is connected to the mountains from east to west, and has narrow roads from north to south. It is the key place for Qu County to travel to Fujian, and it is the only place for Liang army to enter Fujian.

Previously, because the mountain road was difficult to walk, Jiangnan and Fujian caravans mainly traveled on the sea, and there were few people on land.

Now that the Zheng family and Liang Kingdom are in conflict, the road before Xianxia Pass is even rarer.

In this case, Xianxia Pass was also closed and the soldiers were closed to patrol, and they could not be wise to take advantage of them.

Li Chengdong led a few soldiers and did not dare to walk the road in front of the pass. Instead, he touched the vicinity of Xianxia Pass from the mountains and forests, and lay on a hillside to observe the situation of Xianxia Pass.

"General, there is only one road in front of the pass, how can you attack?" a brigade coach whispered.

Li Chengdong observed for a while and found that the location was not good, so he could only see the situation in front of Guancheng. It was indeed a man who could only be the one who could pass the pass.

The wall of Xianxia Pass was built between the two mountains. The road in the middle was narrow and the army could not be used at all.

At this time, Li Chengdong looked around and saw a nearby mountain. He then said in a deep voice: "Climb up and see what's going on in Guancheng."

At that moment, Li Chengdong led his subordinates to climb carefully in the forest and finally climbed to the top of the mountain.

At this time, Li Chengdong pulled out the Qianli Mile Mile and looked at it. He was shocked. Not only was Xianxia Pass dangerous, but he actually repaired four gates.

If it is a head-on attack, I am afraid that the army will be seriously injured and may not be able to attack in one or two months.

"It is worthy of being the place of the four ancient passes, including Jianmen Pass, Hangu Pass, and Yanmen Pass," Li Zicheng sighed.

At this time, a soldier suddenly pointed to a hill outside the wall and whispered: "General, there is someone on that hill."

Li Chengdong looked through the sound and saw a mountain outside the pass, with Zheng army stationed there.

Li Chengdong quickly pulled out the thousand-mile mirror and observed the mountain, and his eyes lit up.

Xianxia Pass was built very early, and there were no artillery before, so the mountain, about four or five hundred steps away from Guancheng, did not pose much threat to Xianxia Pass.

At that time, even if the enemy occupied the mountain, they could not defeat the defenders. Now that the times have changed, they are different.

It is precisely because the mountain may threaten the city that Zheng army stationed many soldiers on the mountain.

Li Chengdong observed for a moment and had an idea in his mind. Then he waved his hand and sneered: "Go back."

It was the night when there were lanterns hanging on the gate building of Xianxia Pass, and soldiers patrolled the city with torches.

On the hill not far from Guancheng, Zheng soldiers lit a bonfire, and the camp was silent.

At this time, three thousand Liang soldiers divided into two strands and touched the vicinity of Xianxia Pass through the night.

Zhou Fugui personally led an army to block the reinforcements in Xianxia Pass. If he had the chance, he directly captured the gate. Li Chengdong led a group of troops to seize the mountain.

At night, a crescent moon was flowing in the sky, and more than a thousand Liang soldiers followed Li Chengdong with a glimmer of light and climbed towards the mountain.

In front of the team, several elite selectors wearing black clothes with only two eyes leaked. They searched forward and were the leader, with croaking insects from time to time.

The soldiers behind heard the sound, and then stood up and moved forward for a distance. From time to time, they could see the Zheng army who was killed by the elite selected leader from the road.

At this time, an elite selector in front of him was groping forward, and his body suddenly stiffened and his forehead suddenly became sweaty.

Seeing this, Li Chengdong waved his hand, and the soldiers behind him stopped quickly, and he led several soldiers forward to check and found that the soldier had tripped a thin thread on his feet.

Li Chengdong looked for the line and saw a bell hanging on it that had been pulled up. If he relaxed it, he would make a sound.

A soldier quickly took out the cotton cloth, stuffed it into the bell, then used scissors to reduce the thread and remove the bell.

At this time, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the elite selection team continued to grop forward, and finally arrived outside the Zheng family camp.

Li Chengdong observed for a while and found that the camp was very quiet. Most of the Zheng soldiers were sleeping soundly in the tent, with only the camp gate. Looking at the soldiers on the building standing guard.

Seeing this, Li Chengdong sneered and waved his hand forward. The two elite athletes with big crossbows on their backs squatted and aimed at the Looking Tower.

"Swish" the two of them pulled the trigger at the same time, and the poisonous crossbow arrow shot out quickly, looking at Zheng Jun on the tower.

Two Zheng Jun, one of whom groaned, fell into the building, and the other fell directly and slammed heavily on the ground, awakening Zheng Jun who was dozing off by the village gate.

More than a dozen Zheng Jun suddenly woke up. Before he could come to his senses, the village gate was roughly knocked open. Several black shadows jumped up and pressed them under him. The short knife stabbed them in his chest, and blood splattered, ending their lives.

"Kill!" Li Chengdong stood up, drew his sword and pointed forward. Liang Jun outside the camp immediately jumped up, rushed into the camp roaring, and ruthlessly slashed and slashed Zheng Jun in his sleep.

When Xianxia was closed, a large number of Zheng Jun climbed to the city, and the torch illuminated the city wall.

"General! The enemy attacked the mountain!" A thousand households faced Zheng Caidao who had just put on his armor and rushed to the city.

Zheng Cai walked by the city wall in disorganized armor, and looked at the fire on the mountain not far away, and was shocked.

The enemy occupies the mountain and can not only see the virtual and real inside the pass, but also pose artillery and bombard the pass city with condescending heights, which will pose a huge threat to the pass city.

Seeing this, Zheng Cai hurriedly shouted, "Open and close the door, follow me to reinforce the mountain."

The gate of Xianxia Pass opened wide, and Zheng Cai led nearly a thousand soldiers and horses to rush out. Not long after he came out, muskets were fired in the woods on both sides of the pass, and two teams of Liang troops were immediately killed. In a melee between the two sides, Zheng Cai hurriedly retreated to the pass.

The next morning, the battle outside Xianxia Pass was over.

Outside the city of Guancheng, Zhou Fugui led thousands of Liang soldiers, carrying siege equipment, and stood on the narrow road in front of Guancheng, as well as the hillsides and woods on both sides of the road.

On the hill outside the city of Guancheng, Li Chengdong was commanding his soldiers, carrying mortars and pulling six thousand-pound cannons up the hill with difficulty.

At this time, six artillery guns were already installed on the gun stand, and the gunner was loading with flowering bullets.

The reason why Gao Huan was confident that Zhou Fugui had won the Xianxia Pass was because Liang Jun had this powerful weapon.

Although all parties are now trying to create their own flowering bullets, the results are not ideal and there is no mass production.

Now that Liang Jun has this unique advantage, Gao Huan naturally needs to make use of it to the maximum extent.

After all, there were flowering bullets in the Ming Dynasty. All forces could still create their own flowering bullets after taking some effort to improve.

"General is ready!" The artillery team brigade coach saluted.

When Li Chengdong heard the words, he looked at the dense Zheng Jun in Guancheng, and waved cruelly, "Aim at the bombardment!"

On the city of Guancheng, Zheng Cai stood in front of the city tower, looking at Liang Jun who was lined up outside the pass, with a serious expression. The opponent had been in a state of shape for an hour and had not attacked. It was obvious that he had some big moves.

"Come on your spirits, Liang Bing is about to attack the city!" Zheng Cai sweated and ordered loudly.

At this moment, a loud "boom" sound suddenly appeared on the top of the mountain, and white smoke rose. The Zheng soldiers on Guancheng looked up and saw a few black shells flying from the top of the mountain, drawing an arc and smashing towards Guancheng.

"Architecture! Hidden!" On the wall, the officer's eyes quickly magnified the shells from a black dot. The officer quickly exclaimed loudly, reminding the soldiers around him.

"Boom!" With a loud bang, a flowering bullet exploded above the city, and the iron nail fragments sputtered downwards. The dense soldiers had nowhere to hide and were injured by the explosion.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" There were loud noises, and white lights burst out on the city of Guancheng, and the Zheng soldiers were instantly overturned by the explosion.

"It's a flower bullet!" Zheng Cai was blown away by the air waves and hit the Guanlou, spitting blood in his mouth, and his face was shocked.

At this time, outside the city of Guan, Zhou Fugui watched the white light rising from the city of Guan, thick black smoke, and soldiers were constantly blown down from the city and smashed heavily to the ground.

"Brothers! It's time to make achievements! I'll be the one who supervises me!" Under the banner of Daqi, Zhou Fugui pulled out his battle knife, waved forward, and roared loudly.

"Kill!" Liang soldiers shouted and launched a charge.

The shells on the top of the city were still exploding, and the Liang soldiers had already rushed to the bottom of the gate, raised ladders and began to climb upwards.

~~~~~~

Fuzhou City, the fourth update.

At night, the city was pitch black and silent. I could only hear the sound of slapping the buzzard by chance.

It was not dawn at this time, and the people of Minyue Kingdom in Fuzhou were still asleep, and they had no idea about the changes in Xianxia Pass.

At this time, a rapid sound of horse hooves came from the north of Fuzhou City. Several Zheng army cavalry and horses rushed over and rushed to the north city for a moment, shouting loudly for the cavalry: "Open the city gate quickly! The military situation is urgent, and we must report to the king immediately."
