Chapter 475: Capture Yuling Pass

Chapter 475

In front of the Yuling Pass military camp, the defending soldiers heard the sound of killing from Xiling, and their attention was attracted. They walked to the place near Xiling and looked there, even the bows and arrows on the arrow tower.

The same goes for hands.

Just as they were immersed in their sight, a scream suddenly came. The soldiers turned around and saw dozens of archers falling from the arrow tower, with crossbow arrows inserted in their necks and chests.

"Not good, someone attacked, ah..."

ah!

ah!

ah!

The defending soldiers just shouted, and immediately another rain of arrows came. More than 100 people defending in front of the military camp were instantly shot into hedgehogs.

"Brothers, hurry up for me!"

"Run!"

Li Cheng rushed towards the military camp gate with his two swords in his hand. The remaining archers on the archery tower were about to shoot arrows when they were shot by the crossbow archers who were aiming for the archery tower with crossbow arrows. The archers were not screaming.

When the arrow fell down, it was placed on the edge of the arrow tower like cooked noodles, and none of them could shoot the arrow out.

Li Cheng led his men to the gate of the military camp and broke open the gate with the soldiers. The army rushed in like a flood, looking for defenders everywhere to fight and set fire, and the entire military camp was in chaos.

Pang Wanchun was standing at Yuling Pass and looking towards the city wall on the side of Xiling. Unexpectedly, he suddenly heard a shout from behind. He was about to ask the soldiers to go and see.

What happened? Suddenly a soldier ran away in panic and said, "General, it's not good, the Song army rushed in!" said the soldier.

"What!"

This news was like a bolt from the blue, making Pang Wanchun's face turn pale, and even his body was trembling slightly.

"Organize people to counterattack immediately and drive them out for me!" After panic, Pang Wanchun roared.

The soldier said, "It's too late, they have too many people, and we can't resist it."

"General, the Song army is obviously prepared. Yuling Pass cannot be defended. Let's escape quickly." The soldiers who followed him said.

Pang Wanchun said anxiously: "Now there are Song troops in front and Song troops behind. Where can we escape besides fighting to the death?"

Another soldier in person said, "General, please change into the clothes of ordinary soldiers as soon as possible and fight out in chaos now. The Song army should not notice it."

"General, he said it right. This may be the last glimmer of hope." said the soldier who spoke before.

Pang Wanchun actually didn't want to die, but since he had a chance to survive now, why didn't he want to try it? So he didn't say anything about fighting to the death. He quickly brought the clothes of ordinary soldiers and changed the bow and arrow like a schoolbag.

Hanging it on your body, with a quiver on your back, holding a small round shield in your left hand and a steel knife in your right hand, leading the soldiers around you and the thousand soldiers guarding the city wall to kill towards the military camp gate behind

Go out.

Lu Junyi and Wang Jin had already led their men to wait three miles away from Yuling Pass. Seeing the firelight reflected on the sky above Yuling Pass, they knew that Gao Zhan and the others had succeeded. Then they led the army with Wang Jin.

Come to Yuling Pass.

When he arrived in front of the pass, he found that there was no guard at the city gate. Lu Junyi immediately ordered the soldiers to use a ladder to climb the city tower and attack the guards forward and backward, and at the same time, he opened the door and welcomed the army into the city.

The soldiers of the recruited army immediately carried the cross ladders to the front of the pass and placed them, and then quickly climbed up because no one stopped them this time, and everyone went up very quickly.

Kill!

After the incorporation army went up, they immediately shouted and joined the encirclement and suppression of the defenders. The incorporation army was no longer an opponent when they faced Li Cheng and led 5,000 soldiers. The incorporation army was even more unresisting. After a while, they were in trouble.

All the defenders were killed completely, and no living person was left behind.

The door was opened, Lu Junyi and Wang Jin led the army into the pass, and then they found that Yuling Pass actually had only this wall, and it was like an ordinary village behind it. All the houses were built of wood, which looked like

Very simple.

Gao Zhan brought people from Xiling. Seeing Lu Junyi, Wang Jin had already come in, and then walked over and shouted: "General Lu, General Wang."

"General Gao, thank you for your hard work." Lu Junyi said with his fists and bowed.

Gao Zhan said: "The biggest contribution to this trip should be Brother Yan. If he hadn't led people to deal with the guards, it would be difficult for us to take down Yuling Pass so smoothly."

"No, no, no, this is all everyone's credit. I just put in a little effort." Yan Qing said quickly.

Lu Junyi looked at Yan Qing, nodded at him with satisfaction, and then asked Gao Zhan: "Has Pang Wanchun and his two deputy generals Lei Ji Ji caught him?"

Gao Zhan said: "Lei Jiong has been killed by me, Ji Ji was killed by arrows. Only Pang Wanchun has not been found yet. I don't know if it is hidden somewhere."

Lu Junyi immediately ordered: "Look for me carefully now. You can't let go of any ordinary place. You must find the person for me."

The soldiers searched all the places where people could be hidden inside and outside Yuling Pass, but still couldn't find them.

"It's strange, where did this guy hide?" Wang Jin said.

"Did you escape?" Lu Junyi said.

Li Cheng said: "It's impossible. Pang Wanchun is an important general we want to capture. Bei Zhi had already ordered his soldiers. Once he saw a general rushing out, he immediately focused on siege. However, no soldiers have seen a general rushing so far.

Go out, there shouldn't be a runaway."

Gao Zhan thought for a while and said, "Tang Wanchun must also know that we want to catch him, so it is very likely that he will escape by changing into a soldier's outfit."

"Escape in the outfit of a soldier!"

Li Cheng was surprised. He had never thought of this before. Now, after Gao Zhanyi said that, he felt that it was really possible, because he did see some guards killing him, but at that time

I thought it didn't matter if I ran away a few insignificant guards, so I didn't care.

"You go and look for it and see if there is a replacement armor." Gao Zhan said to the soldiers.

The soldiers went to search for it for a while and soon brought a pair of armor. When Lu Junyi, Gao Zhan and Wang Jin saw that it was exactly the same outfit that Pang Wanchun wore on the wall during the day.

"It seems that Pang Wanchun did escape by changing into the soldier's armor." Gao Zhan said.

Li Cheng said with great remorse: "It's all my fault. I didn't expect this guy to change into a soldier's clothes to go out. If I could think about making arrangements earlier, this would not have happened."

"You can't blame you for this, none of us expected it."

Lu Junyi said: "However, although Pang Wanchun escaped, we have taken down Yuling Pass and killed all the five thousand soldiers under him, which can be regarded as avenging the dead brothers. As for Pang Wanchun, I believe

We will meet again, and it will not be too late for us to settle the score with him."

Afterwards, Lu Junyi asked someone to clean up the number of casualties and carry out the body to be disposed of. At the same time, he ordered the army to repair it for a day at Yuling Pass and continue to march towards Shezhou the day after tomorrow. After all, the soldiers did not get a good rest from yesterday to night.

When you march, the soldiers will feel tired.

Three hours later, it was dawn.

Yan Qing came to tell Lu Junyi that he wanted to thank the old monk while he went there. Lu Junyi also thought he should go there, so he sent eight people, picked two stones of rice, and took another thousand taels of silver as incense money, and went with him.

Thanks to the old monk.

Yan Qing brought people to the small temple, gave the things to the old monk, and repeatedly expressed his gratitude to him. The old monk couldn't refuse, so he had to accept it in the end.

The edge of Wulong Ridge.

Early in the morning, Sun An sent people to find ropes and wooden boards back. They found five hundred thick ropes and hundreds of wooden boards from Tonglu County that were about a hundred meters long and used to pull boats.

Huaju, who first used a rope like a rope, woven three rope nets about fifty meters long, then used a knife to slightly cut out four grooves at both ends of the wooden board, and then spread the wooden boards piece by piece onto a rope net.

On the surface, wrap the wooden boards tightly with a rope and fix them together. Finally, fix the other two ropes, one left and one right, on the two wooden boards to form a bridge railing, and a complete movable soft bridge is ready.

Hua Ju asks someone to take the soft bridge to the cliff where the path collapses. He asks Meng Qinghe to wrap the rope around his waist and move it slowly to the opposite side of the collapse, tie the rope to a solid object, and then the other five

Ten people carried the equipment they needed, and they were close to the cliff, and climbed the ropes with their hands.

Then, the people on both sides began to get busy at the same time. They each cut down ten trees the size of soup pot, took the root to the thickest section in the middle, each section was about six meters long, and then pressed the eight-shaped one in turn.

These ten tree stumps were buried about three meters deep in the soil, and then the soldiers were allowed to smash the soil with stones.

Then, the rope sections left at one end of the soft bridge were wrapped around the tops of ten tree stumps, tied tightly at the middle and lower parts, and tied the other end to the ropes that the soldiers were climbing past, and Meng Qinghe and others

Drag it over and tie it to the ten wooden stakes on the other side like this.

As a result, a simple suspended suspension bridge was built.

Hua Ju looked at the suspension bridge and was about to go and try it out in person. Sun An hurriedly stopped it and said, "Sir, don't leave, I'll try it out."

"I thought of this method and I should try it out." Hua Ju said.

Sun An wanted to persuade him again, but Hua Ju had already raised his legs to the bridge. Although he was hurriedly trying to follow him, Hua Ju said, "Don't come up first, I'll leave alone."

Hua Ju slowly walked from one end of the suspension bridge to the other end alone, except for a little shaking, everything else was normal.

Then, Hua Jue asked the soldiers to line up and walk past the bridge, and there was still no problem except swaying.

Hua Ju and Meng Qinghe walked back from the other end, and Sun An said excitedly: "Sir, with this suspension bridge, we can quickly cross Wulong Ridge and go straight to Muzhou."

"Muzhou wants to take it, but I also want to take it down in Wulongling."

Hua Ju said: "Tonight, you led 20,000 people to pretend to be reinforcements sent by Fang La to capture Wulongling, and then rushed to Muzhou overnight with all the cavalry. While they were not prepared, they took Muzhou in one fell swoop.

.”

Sun An said, "Sir."
