A new round of attacks on the first line of heaven suddenly began in the afternoon.

This time, Sun Tu did not only let the official army rush to the front, but sent all the masters of the army under him out - Lin Chong, Yang Zhi, Cao Zheng, Shi Qian...... These generals all rushed to the front of the team in the first place, and rushed towards the first line of heaven with a roar of more than 100 elites in the Qingzhou army.

The weapons and equipment of these people this time are also similar, all of them are short weapons in one hand and round shields in the other hand, taking into account both offense and defense. When they came to the mountain beam at the corner, Lin Chong and the others shouted even more, and their feet suddenly exerted force, and their bodies rushed towards the narrow mountain road like arrows from the string, and in the blink of an eye, they had rushed through the distance of more than 20 steps, so fast that everyone before and behind them exclaimed.

However, although the defenders in front of the first line of heaven were shocked, they were not in chaos, and when they saw them rushing like this, they immediately released a shower of arrows again, and some people smashed a lot of stones fiercely, and they would never let the officers and soldiers spend these miles of a long line of sky.

Lin Chong walked in the forefront, and when he saw this, he quickly shrank down and raised his shield, and at the same time, the short gun in his hand danced impermeable, and the water could not splash in, even if the arrows that shot in front of him were powerful, they were picked up by his gun, and they often flew to the cliffs on both sides, and as for the stones that flew with a whistling, they all hit the round shield, banging, but they couldn't hurt him at all.

Not only that, Lin Chong's pace of progress did not slow down in the slightest, and he continued to stride forward, and he rushed through nearly half of the mountain road in one go. Not only him, but Yang Zhi and the others behind him were much more relaxed because of Lin Chong blocking most of the arrows in front, as long as they were slightly distracted to parry the arrows shot from the side, so that the speed was faster than Lin Chong, and they were able to keep moving forward after him.

Seeing that this elite army was so strong, the defenders were really a little flustered. Immediately, some people shouted: "Shoot them with rockets!" ”

When the order is given, the arrow pauses for a moment, and when it comes again, it is a rocket with flames. At this time, Lin Chong's situation became more and more difficult, those rockets would burst into sparks when they were hit, and a few soldiers were actually ignited on their clothes and armor without checking for a while, and suddenly they exclaimed, their footsteps were chaotic, and someone actually fell off the cliff screaming because of this.

At the same time, I could only hear a bang-click, and the shield in the hand of Lin Chong, who was rushing to the front, suddenly shattered!

The round shield was carrying countless flying stones all the way, no matter how strong it was, it was just a layer of iron wrapped in wood, and after being hit so many times, it finally couldn't stand it and shattered.

And once the shield shattered, more stones and arrows were already shooting towards Lin Chong's head and body, so that his footsteps finally stopped, and then he shouted, waving the short gun in his hand and dialing it with all his might, but he was still a hundred secrets, and was shot in the left shoulder by an arrow, and with a muffled snort, his body shook.

Fortunately, Yang Zhi and Cao Zheng behind him reacted quickly enough, and at the moment he was hit by the arrow, one of them pulled his clothes back, and the other pulled out of his body, jumped over Lin Chong's head, and then took the shield in his hand to move forward, only to hear the sound of tuk, and those arrows that were originally shot at Lin Chong were blocked.

This time it was really dangerous, Rao is Lin Chongyi was bold, and his face turned pale with surprise at this time, and he was grateful

He glanced at Cao Zheng, who was pulling himself back, and at the same time, the short gun in his hand swept out again, helping Yang Zhi to fly a few arrows away, and shouted in his mouth: "Go back!" ”

At this time, although they rushed through the first line of heaven for nearly half of the day, the enemy's arrow attack was more ferocious than before, and it was impossible to block it with these round shields alone, and it was too dangerous to go any further, so they could only retreat first.

Yang Zhi was unwilling in his heart, and wanted to take a few steps forward to test it, but at this moment, several stones flew in, and this time the flying stones were much larger than the previous ones, and the strength was naturally greater, although he immediately used all his strength to block the shield, but the strong force attacked, and the shield was still broken, and the people staggered backwards, and even stepped on the mountain road.

At this time, fortunately, Lin Chong's eyes were quick, and he quickly pulled him back, and then shouted: "Retreat!" You can't storm it here! ”

Yang Zhi, who had suffered a loss, had already understood that this place was indeed difficult to attack, so he could only follow hatefully: "Retreat!" The back team becomes the front team, go back! ”

I thought that this time my own elite was exhausted, and I should be able to kill a glimmer of heaven under the full impact. But in the end, it was in vain, and they were beaten back by the defenders after only half the distance, and they also caused more than ten casualties, which made Lin Chong and the others feel quite depressed, and they were ashamed to see Sun Tu.

But what they didn't know was that the fierce side they showed just now was enough to make the people of Erlong Mountain feel frightened. You must know that for Erlong Mountain, the most difficult to overcome is this first-line natural danger pass, compared with this, the Jintang City below and the Pingtian Pass above are just ordinary passes, and this is the natural danger.

Lu Yuan had asserted before that as long as the first line of heaven was still in the hands of his cottage, even if there were 10,000 or 20,000 officers and troops to attack the cottage, they would be able to hold on for a year and a half under the condition of sufficient food. Unless the officers and soldiers are completely desperate, fill with human lives, and constantly impact the first line of the sky, this is a trench for all those who want to kill the mountain!

But today, this team of more than 100 people actually rushed through nearly half of the mountain road in one go, if they hadn't gone crazy and smashed out a few big rocks later, I'm afraid that there was a possibility of losing the line of innocence. This time, it really frightened the people of Erlong Mountain, and the combat effectiveness of the Qingzhou Army was too terrifying.

But Lin Chong didn't know this, and he was a little ashamed after returning back: "Metropolitan Supervisor, I am incompetent, and please punish Metropolitan Supervisor." ”

"You've all done your best, and withdrawing before you pay too much is the best option." Although Sun Tu was below, he also saw the danger of this battle, so he smiled and said, "It's not too early, let's all rest first." ”

"Then ...... next," Yang Zhi asked with still reluctance.

"Send another team of men and horses tomorrow to take a look, maybe once they run out of bows and arrows, we will be able to climb the mountain easily." Sun Tu waved his hand disappreciatively.

At the foot of the mountain, the two of them had already bent down again, and Qi Liu's face was full of shock and fear: "These Qingzhou officials and soldiers are really powerful, it's just a little bit ......" As he spoke, he shuddered with some fear.

Han Benshan's face was not good-looking, when he went up the mountain before, he had also observed the terrain and passes of Erlong Mountain, and knew how difficult it was to get up to that line of sky, once he went up

There are people who are stubbornly defending, and no number of people are enough to rush. But today, the officers and soldiers showed a strong fighting spirit, which made him a little uneasy.

After a while, he said: "So if you want to fight them head-on, we have almost no chance of winning, and you don't have to worry about killing them at this time, it will only be in vain." However, they attacked so quickly and riskily, but I saw something, I am afraid that the officers and soldiers will not be able to stay here for a long time and slowly consume the resources on the mountain. ”

"You mean...... Is they running out of food? ”

"Yes, the biggest problem of this officer army lies in this, maybe as long as the people above can hold out for a while longer, they don't need Liang Shanbo's reinforcements to arrive, and the official army will be defeated. Wait patiently, we'll see you soon. ”

Han Benshan's vision is very accurate, and Lu Yuan on the mountain also saw this, and at this time he was also cheering loudly for the big guys: "Don't be discouraged, as the so-called one drum and then three times and exhaustion, the official army has attacked me twice in a row and was frustrated, I think it should be impossible for them to attack the mountain with all their strength in the future." And as long as we drag it out, we will definitely be able to hold the cottage! ”

Lu Yuan's reputation in the village is still extremely high, he said this, everyone was willing to believe it, and immediately everyone shouted: "We will swear to defend the cottage and never let those court eagles and dogs succeed!" ”

That's what they say, and that's what they do.

In the next few offensive and defensive battles, the people of Erlong Mountain still stuck to the front line, and every time the officers and troops gathered and charged, they smashed the bows and arrows and stones down with all their might, repelling attacks again and again. For this reason, the stockade even moved all the defensive weapons that originally belonged to Pingtianguan to this side, which is to make up its mind to only defend this natural risk. Once the first line of heaven is broken, then the Pingtian Pass will completely lose the ability to block the official army.

And the effect of this is also quite significant, not only repelling the strong attack of the officers and troops for five consecutive days, but also killing and wounding dozens of hundreds of officers and soldiers. Although the numbers are not comparable to the damage caused to the officers and soldiers on the first day of Jintangcheng, you must know that this time they killed and injured the elite of the Qingzhou army, and you can see how tragic this offensive and defensive battle is.

A few days of attack and defense passed quickly, and the officers and troops were stopped in front of the first line. And with the passage of time, the sharpness of the officers and soldiers has gradually faded, looking at the attack that is just a false response, the balance of victory on the side of Erlongshan has fallen to their side, especially after Lu Yuan instructed them to check the amount of cooking smoke below, and knew that the fire of the officers and soldiers was getting less and less, everyone was even more convinced that soon, the officers and troops would retreat because of the lack of food and grass, and it would be time for them to counterattack.

That day is coming soon.

On the second day of November, the officers and troops sent another army to kill the first day, but they only tried for a moment, and before the defenders could shoot the arrows, they quickly retreated. At the same time, the officers and soldiers who were originally stationed in Jintang City had begun to slowly retreat, and all of this naturally fell into the eyes of Lu Yuan and the others on the top of the mountain, which made them smile proudly: "The officers and troops are finally unable to continue, and they are about to retreat." ”

At this time, a choice was placed in front of them, whether to take the opportunity to kill and defeat the officials and soldiers, or to stick to the cottage and let them leave?
