Chapter 746: The golden autumn is tempered, and the beacon fires continue to burn

The breeze blew across the forest, and the sound of leaves was mixed with swords. With a buzzing sound, the cold light came out of the sheath.

"Take them all-"

The sound of suddenly rising was heard. Han Long took off his hat and threw it to the ground. His body had taken several steps and hit the three soldiers who rushed over first. During the run, a stone flew up from under his feet. As he was running, a soldier splashed with blood on his face. While his body was in pain, the ranger opposite them had already pulled the distance closer. A long sword pierced out extremely quickly, with a buzzing sound. The soldiers on the right

The chest was cut open, and the leather armor and flesh were cut off. The other person had only time to swing the knife. The figure had already crossed. The sword edge that had not yet stopped was turning from the right to the left, and instantly cut a bloody mouth on the soldier's neck. Han Long turned his wrist and Han Jian was in his hand and continued to move forward. The soldier who had fallen to the ground before struggled to get up. The steps he was walking on the opposite side kicked his chest and flew backwards.

The horse whistles and neighs—

A woman pulled the curtain of the car, and the figure flying backwards into her eyes, and hit the horse pulling the cart. Not far away from the other side, the figure of Qingshan crossed the two corpses with a sword. She put down the curtain in horror and went back to hold the four-year-old child inside in her arms. Her voice comforted her tremblingly: "A Dou is not afraid... not afraid..." When there was a voice in Jingzhou outside, a stroke of Jingzhou outside shouted: "Form a formation--"

Then, countless swords and soldiers collided with shrill screams, and the bang of arrows hitting the carriage exploded in an instant on the mountain road. Five hundred green forests jumped off trees, drilled out of shrubs and rocks, and ran wildly, killing together with three hundred Jingzhou soldiers. The weapons were crazily fighting. After stabbing two Green Forests who were approaching the carriage, five remaining soldiers who formed the formation roared out from behind the body, a iron spear roared out from behind the body, and directly penetrated one of the Jingzhou soldiers. The visitor's arms bulged, and the body with the gun rod and the head of the gun swung left and right, swaying the small formation to the east and west. One of them picked up a ring-headed knife from the ground and wanted to pounce on it, but Zhu Gongdao raised his foot and slapped it away.

It hit the side of the carriage with a bang, and the frame was shaking gently in the impact.

The soldiers driving also drew their swords and pounced on them from above. At this time, they stepped to the edge of the car and their bodies were still in the air. Zhu Gongdao swept the two of them one after another, and shot them lightly with a backhand, stabbed them upwards with a slight sound, stabbed into the chest of the soldiers who were catching up with the car. The moment they pulled out, the body blasted and fell down. The head covered with blood was sank into the curtain of the car. A Dou, who had just raised his face from the woman's arms, burst into tears with a loud voice.

The curtain was lifted, and a bearded face came in. After looking at the woman and the child, he pulled the body out of the carriage. On this side, Han Long, who was walking with a sword, nodded to Zhu Gongdao, who had jumped into the carriage and chased him: "You drive away first." Then, he stepped towards the second carriage. Someone rushed towards him in the fight. The sword danced, and the sound of blood tearing, the front mouth dragged the bleeding line, and the body rushing to cover his neck and fell in his footsteps.

The mountain wind blew across the chaotic mountain road. Under the dim sunlight, Han Long, wearing a green gauze, walked forward with his long sword hanging down his sword. Looking at Xia Houjuan who was chasing the car, he raised his hand expressionlessly: "You are the family of Hou in Xixiang. Long does not want to make things difficult. Please follow us to go to the military camp in the north. When the war is over, Long personally apologizes to Hou in Xixiang."

"Where is the eldest brother's family?" Xiahou Juan has lived with Xiahou Yuan since she was a child and has some martial arts skills, but she has no courage to draw the sword in the end. She looked at the carriage away and her voice was depressed: "... Will King Jin kill them mother and son?"

"Long is only responsible for executing the king's orders, please don't make things difficult for you."

At the same time, the chaos behind gradually stopped. The figures of the Green Forest people walked around with swords and guns, and learned about the undead people. Several of them brought the Hu family, Guan Xing, Guan Suo and Guan Feng from the third carriage behind. Xiahou Juan quickly jumped off the carriage and chased them. Even Zhang Bao, who was thirteen years old in the carriage, rushed out, "Sister is injured?"

Hu shook his head, put his hand on his daughter and youngest son, covering them up, for fear that the people in the green forest around him would commit crimes, "...what should we do now?"

Before Xiahou Juan answered, Han Long had already come over and swung his sword and beat the weapon blocked by the woman's hand. Zhang Bao pinched his fist and shouted: "You dare to hit your mother--" in his voice, and was pressed down on his forehead and gently pushed back. The blue shirt was stroking in the wind, and stood between two steps and made a call. His words were simple and cold: "Get on the car, let's talk about everything."

"Sister... let's go with them."

Xiahou Juan bit her lower lip and sent Hu to the carriage she was riding, so that the other children could also get up and squeeze in. She said to Han Long outside through the curtain: "We are just women and there are a few more children. I hope this commander will take care of him on the way and don't make things difficult."

In the curtain, her eyes were slightly red, and her hands on her legs were trembling slightly, but she never showed her timidity. The shaft of the car slowly drove away from the place, and the surrendered soldiers were watched by the green forest beside her and walked behind. Soon after, they went on a path and crossed the county town in front. The sunset fell and rose again. When the dark color was quickly pushed away in front of the edge of the morning light, Jiameng Pass in northern Yizhou was shaking.

The gray clouds reflected the firelight spread across the city. Occasionally, huge rocks that flew up and hit the city walls, and spider-web-like cracks spread. The Shu soldiers running on the city were throwing stones downwards as the general shouted, the archers hid in the walls, the shield soldiers shot arrows downwards, and from time to time, arrows flew up. The soldiers screaming shrillly and screamed to the ground, rolling on the ground, and then pulled down by their companions, everything seemed chaotic.

Before siege, after the Heishan infantry went down the mountain, they received a letter from the King of Jin to speed up the capture of the pass. However, Yu Du still sent people to Chengguan to send a letter of surrender. He was rejected by Wu Lan and Ren Kui who retreated here, beheaded the envoy and threw the heads under the city. Yu Du ran to the pass and cursed: "I will give you a way to live, I will have to go to a dead end, wash your neck and wait!" Forty thousand Heishan infantry surrounded the pass, and then Wu Anguo took some Fengxiang soldiers to attack the city.

On September 21, the war broke out in the early morning. The Fengxiang army first threw stones to cover the wall to reduce the morale of the soldiers guarding the city, and then climbed the city to fight with Heishan infantry. However, this army was still good at fighting in the mountains and fields. The way to climb the city wall seemed ordinary. The situation of siege was extremely fierce at the first time. The dense soldiers rushed up, and the Shu soldiers guarding the city were not timid. They only fought for a certain section of the city wall, which lasted for several hours. Until Gongsun Zhi's second order came, Guo Si's Xiliang army also arrived here, mixed in the middle of the Heishan infantry siege and climbed up the wall.

When these Xiliang infantry returned to the Han area, there were only a few thousand people. After a year of expansion, the number reached 20,000. From the Dong Zhuo period to the seven-year Western Expedition, they had extremely rich experience in how to attack the city and how to save their lives when fighting for the city. In the autumn morning light, these Xiliang veterans with new recruits were covered with the flesh and blood of the enemy. In just one stick of incense, they stood up two teams of twenty people, protected the ladder behind them, and kept moving the front line out.

"Why would my Shu son be worse than the people in the northwest? They all pushed up and guarded the city walls!!" Ren Kui ran between the walls with his weapons. After a moment, his words became: "Don't retreat, hold on for a moment, and reinforcements will come soon--"

Then the situation gradually spread towards the inner city wall as the Xiliang army climbed up... Until the entire pass wall was lost, Wu Lan burned the food in the pass and led Ren Kui to flee south again. However, on the second day, he was caught up by the Western Liang cavalry led by Ma Chao in the wilderness. After two charges back and forth, the two were cut off their heads and stood on two wooden stakes between the road leading to Zitong.

At the end of September, in the area north of Chengdu, the strategy of stabilizing the walls and clearing the fields played a certain role in targeting the troops heading south. The effect of delaying and defeating the enemy made Gongsun Zhi taste the intermittent difficulties of baggage. If Hanzhong County had not had any wars all year round and had abundant granaries, it would be difficult to maintain the problem of 150,000 soldiers and horses. But similarly, the strategy of stabilizing the walls and clearing the fields also made the people in Shu feel intense, and some people outside the city also resisted this. At the beginning, there were only a small number of people. When the strategy of clearing the fields spread to Chengdu, some of the gentry jointly resisted, and many officials were involved. The resistance was still brewing.

On the eighth day of the 10th month, the Xiliang Army and Heishan infantry attacked Langzhong, and the defending general Lei Tong led his army to retreat.

Eleventh, Gongsun Zhi pretended to attack Zitong, and the Fu County garrison Zhang Yi and Zhang Yi sent troops to rescue him, but was cut off by Ma Chao. At the same time, the main force of the northern land attacked Fu County. The county magistrate immediately chose to surrender and protect the people in the city. The two Zhang led the defeated troops to escape to Mianzhu in the rear.

Over the years, Gongsun Zhi's victory in the battles in the north and north have shocked people. Many people are somewhat nervous or competing when they are against them, so that when Zhang Yi and Zhang Yi were surrounded, they hurried out of the city to rescue him, and were finally ambushed by the cavalry.

In Chengdu, Liu Bei received a series of information about Gongsun Zhi going south. Unlike the anxiety of others, he seemed stable. The northern army was strong and he knew it long ago. Now the strategy of strengthening the walls and clearing the fields had already played a role. From the scout who came back to death, he knew that the northern army had already been in a discontinuous state. Even though the opponent's attack was fierce, it was just a sign of anxiety in his eyes. Fei Shi, Sun Qian and others who came to the government office to inquire about the situation, Liu Bei just waved his hand to reassure them: "It is to let Gongsun Zhi take one city and one city. When he worked hard to capture the food and fodder in the city were burned. In this way, the food supply could not be provided, and the morale of the army would naturally be dispersed. That was the time for my sons in Shu to counterattack."

"……. In addition, the soldiers and horses of the caves of the Southern Barbarians have also come. They should be allowed to take over and wipe out Gongsun Zhi's wave. Just drag it out for November. After the weather turns cold, the North Wolf King will have completely failed. When you go back and pass on the people under your command, you must have confidence!"

In his voice, he went to Jiangyuan to the west, and tens of thousands of troops marched quickly on the flat fields, crossing the Tuojiang River and the waters, heading towards Guanghan County, and then in the north was Mianzhu Pass. The hired southern barbarian army was there to resist the troops of the King of Jin who were surging south.

Soon, Gongsun Zhi led the main force to pass Zitong and step into the edge of Mianzhu Pass.

The time for fighting has come.
