Chapter 254: Battle for the Mountain

Ziwugu discovered the enemy, but for now, Yangpingguan is the main battlefield.

On the second day of Ma Chao ’s attack, the imaginary offensive did not come. Wei Yan stood on the Dougong and looked at the Machao Barracks from afar, but he saw that the Xiliang Army did not send troops. The deputy prepared to fight Wei Yan for a protracted battle.

Shouldn't be!

Wei Yan came down from Dougong, frowning and thinking. According to his knowledge, Ma Chao's situation is not good. This attack on Hanzhong is also to expand his survival space for himself and face the threat of Cao Jun at any time, so Ma Chao cannot have time to fight with himself. Protracted battle is right, but quick battle and quick decision.

"General!" A small school suddenly ran and came to Wei Yan and bowed: "There was news from the mountain and the trace of the Xiliang Army was found."

On the mountain?

Wei Yan was stunned, and immediately responded. When Liu Yi came to Yangping, there was not much change in the design of the city defense. Instead, there were lifts on both sides, because there is no hydraulic power available here, so the lifts made by Liu Yi rely on The two elevators go up and down on the cliffs facing Yangpingguan respectively.

The rocks on both sides are steep and inaccessible. They are nearby hunters. They rarely know the way up the mountain. Wei Yan didn't expect Ma Chao to come, so he started to count the hills on both sides.

Wei Yan looked up at the hills on both sides. If the hills on both sides were occupied, the Yangping Pass would not only be seen through by the enemy, but also faced with a crisis of death every day. God knows if he could just drop a stone Hit it on his head.

"Order a team of people and follow me up the mountain!" To understand this, Wei Yan took the men and horses directly and took the elevator to the mountain. This elevator is more like a cable car. A special pulley set on the top of the mountain can carry ten people at a time. There are rollers underneath, as long as three people walk inside, they can pull the pulley on the mountain to take the elevator up, which is quite convenient.

Wei Yan also had to admire Liu Yi's vision at that time, and he saw the weakness of Yangpingguan at a glance, and built a sentry on the top of the mountain. If the enemy forces wanted to occupy the mountain, they could be found in the first place.

After the elevator reached the top of the mountain, Wei Yan came out and ordered the elevator to continue to work. There are not many places on the top of the mountain, which can accommodate up to two or three hundred people. Liu Yi also involved in the construction of a small cottage, which contains many crossbows and Arrow cluster, there are five people standing here all year round, standing here, not only the panoramic view of Yangpingguan, Ma Chao's big camp is also unobstructed.

"General, look there!" A soldier in charge of the mountain took Wei Yan to Dougong and pointed to a low-lying area below. There was a team of Xiliang soldiers looking towards the top of the mountain. Zhaizi is running here. There are thirty or fifty people depending on the number of people.

"Go ahead, tell them to hurry up!" Wei Yan's face was a little black, and he was clearly seen by the person headed, it was that Pound, and the other party obviously wanted to seize the place. There are only fifteen warriors, occupying high ground and occupying geographical advantages, but there are many enemies.

Why are there him everywhere?

Wei Yan is a little depressed. He is about the same level as Pound. He has fought once before, no match, and now he is facing each other. A melee is inevitable!

Pound apparently had a similar idea. After seeing whereabouts, it is not nonsense, and he took the person directly to the top of the mountain.

The icy cluster of arrows shot through the body of Xiliangjun. Pound pushed down the soldier beside him, avoiding the cluster of arrows, and at the same time drew a gun from his waist, looking at the window of the small walled building, Shaking his hand, the two Shu soldiers were directly strung together by the shooting gun.

Wei Yan's eyes flashed with anger, and he took three arrow clusters and exhaled, and the three Xiliangjun fell in response.

There was not much time between the two sides to fight each other. Wei Yan ’s four soldiers died in battle. When Pound drove to the front, the soldiers next to him fell twelve, but Wei Yan ’s second group of men and women had passed the lift. The ladder was brought up, and as soon as the door was opened, the Xiliang Army was seen waving one weapon at a time, and then chopped off. Wei Yan ordered the two crossbowmen to continue firing on the walled building, and personally rushed down to fight the Xiliang Army In a ball.

This time is different from the previous one. Pound is trying to seize the mountain, but Wei Yan is trying to defend the mountain. Both sides have reasons for not being able to retreat. This time, the killing was extremely fierce.

Between the fights, Pound saw the strange elevator and sent the ten Shu troops up again. With a move in his heart, he set aside Wei Yan and wanted to rush to cut the cable. At the same time, he pulled out a ring-headed knife from the waist and took advantage of Ponderge to block it.

Pound had to give up the idea of ​​cutting off the cable immediately, to fight with Wei Yan at the same time, and shouted at the same time: "Cut off the cable!"

He has seen that the reason why Wei Yan was able to build a sentry here is because that strange battle can continuously send the Shu army below. If he can destroy this elevator, even if the people brought this time are all dead. Worth it.

The Xiliang Army still has the advantage of the number of people, but it is not too obvious. The two Xiliang Army broke away from the battle group and had to go forward to cut the cable. Wei Yan saw it, turned around and wanted to stop. The long knife was like a knife, and it was a lifeless play. Wei Yan was furious when he saw it, but he was helpless.

"Crunch ~"

The two Xiliang soldiers had not approached, and they saw that the elevator came up again. Ten Shu troops opened the door and ran out, facing the two Xiliang soldiers who stepped forward to cut the cables.

The two Xiliang troops were also brave. It was too late to see each other. They did n’t have time to escape. Without a word, they cut with a knife, and suddenly two of them were cut by the other. After the Shu army recovered, the sword went down. The Xiliang Army made two screams, and then no sound came.

At this point, the strength of the two sides on the mountain was basically the same, but Wei Yan's side, but the energy continued to pull up through the elevator, Pound saw no chance, and cut Wei Yanzhen with a knife, turned to seem to want to go, Wei Yan was busy After struggling to catch up, he saw Pound suddenly turned around and made Wei Yan startle, and quickly turned sideways to avoid.

But Pound didn't want to deal with Wei Yan. After turning around and stunning Wei Yan, his body twitched violently, and the knife in his hand flew out directly, stroking in the air in the direction of the cable.

Wei Yan was shocked by this, but at this moment he wanted to stop where he could stop it. With a roar, he would take the opportunity to cut the Pound. Pound hey laughed, rolled in place, and laughed away from Wei Yan's knife.

"Zi ~"

In the bitter acidic friction sound, Wei Yan and Pound looked subconsciously towards the cable, but saw that the knife was chopped on the cable, but only chopped in some, even half, and then the knife was flew out.

Pound's eyes were straight, although the knife was hurriedly exerted force, but the force was not small, how could the cable be so tough?

"Hahaha ~" Wei Yan was relieved when he saw it. As long as he wasn't cut off immediately, there was still a chance. Liu Yi ordered people to make a few more cables in Guanzhong, just to avoid breaking the cable once. Lost, favorable terrain on the top of the mountain.

Pound was furious, picked up a knife from the ground, and wanted to reapply the old skills, but Wei Yan was already prepared this time, how can he succeed?

Without waiting for Pound to throw the knife in his hand again, Wei Yan had already swept the knife to grab it, and he cut the Pound fiercely against Pound, and Pound lost the edge of his hand and could only keep blocking. Without strength to continue fighting, seeing another batch of Shu army coming up, Wei Yan knew that it was hopeless to cut the cable today, and before the other party had not closed up, after cutting a wound with Wei Yan, he cut several Shu troops, With the remaining ten or so Xiliang Army headed straight down the mountain.

Wei Yan took people to shoot with a bow and arrow, and then shot three people. Fang Cai was sitting on the ground with fear, looking at the direction of Pound leaving, and seeing that a group of people came up, Wei Yan quickly ordered a soldier to follow, let the lower first Mo had to send people up again, leaving Liu Yi on the cable in Guanzhong, and let the craftsman replace the cable before continuing to transport troops up.

The cable was broken in half, and the ghost knew that it could still be pulled several times. If it was broken halfway, these people Wei Yan would have to be trapped on this mountain.

With this lesson in mind, Wei Yanke didn't dare to ignore the defense of the mountain top. After changing the cable, he continued to send soldiers and horses to fill the small village built by Liu Yi on the mountain top with 300 horses. After guarding the mountain, he took the elevator to return to Yangpingguan.

On the other side, Ma Chao's big camp, watching the embarrassed return ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Ponde with many colors on his body, Ma Chao could not help frowning: "Ling Ming where is this?"

Pound smiled bitterly: "Na Weiyan was ready, and he made a rope ladder on the mountain, but he transported the soldiers from the mountain to the mountain. He would have wanted to destroy the rope ladder, but he was found by the other party. Fighting with the end of the battle, eventually failed to cut the rope ladder, please protagonist to sin! "

Rope ladder?

Ma Chaowen looked at the steep cliff and then Pound. With his understanding, Pound was a responsible person and would not lie to lie to shirk himself to shirk his responsibility, but ...

The cliff is about 10 feet away from Yangpingguan. How can Liu Bei build a rope ladder in such a place?

"Principle!" Pound asked the doctor to help him deal with the wound, while facing Ma Chao: "That Wei Yan is not a waiter, now our army has lost its opportunities, Yangpingguan has enough soldiers and horses, and our army is difficult to break through in an emergency. , Better than ... "

"How?" Ma Chao turned his head and looked at Pound.

"Our army's rear is unstable, our army attacked Yangpingguan, but Cao Jun turned a blind eye. At the end, the general will always feel that Cao Jun is cheating. It's better to form an alliance with Liu Bei and join forces to fight against Cao!"

"Try again ..." Ma Chao hesitated a moment later and shook his head. Now is the time of Hanzhong's emptiness. If he gives up this opportunity, he can only rely on the land of the three counties in Longxi, not to mention confrontation with Cao Cao. Feeding: "If it is not possible to break the Yangping Pass within one month, you will withdraw your troops.") Book friends, pay close attention!
