The Wei army's offensive was both substantive and tentative, and Sima Wang was not an expert in fighting this kind of mountain attack, and the Wei army's strength was in the plain field battle, the iron cavalry roared, and it was invincible, but it was very unsuitable for this kind of mountain warfare that was timid.

The topography of the Jieting Tushan is quite peculiar, and the wide Jieting Pass rises from the ground, and the surrounding mountains are not involved in the slightest, it is completely maverick standing there, although it is not as towering as the surrounding Longshan peaks, but it is also straight and steep, and it is natural.

The south and north sides of Tushan are extremely steep, almost 90 degrees vertical, and extremely difficult to climb, compared to the eastern and western foothills of Tushan, which are slightly gentle, and the Wei army's first choice is to attack from the eastern foot of Tushan.

The narrow mountain road simply couldn't accommodate too many troops, and the first attack echelon of 3,000 people sent by Sima Wang was very crowded. The slope of the mountain road was so steep that the Wei soldiers had to crawl on their waists.

This section of the mountain road has obviously been deliberately "processed" by the Shu army, except for the road that can only accommodate more than ten people side by side, the rest of the road has either been dug into a deep pit or cut into a cliff, which is basically impassable, and many Wei soldiers can only climb forward along the road arranged for them by the Shu army.

The top of the mountain seemed very empty, except for the flags flying high and the upright barracks that seemed to tell the Wei soldiers that there was a Shu army stationed on the top of the mountain, the Wei soldiers could hardly see any figures, and the air seemed to be frozen, with a deathly silence.

The Wei soldiers at the forefront were very nervous and worried, knowing that there were a large number of Shu troops on the top of the mountain. But I just can't see people. This made them even more nervous. They can't predict what will happen in the next moment, and maybe they don't know that the cold arrows shot from there will ruthlessly take their lives.

In the battlefield, the more fierce the battle, the more it can stimulate the fighting spirit of the soldiers, on the contrary, the deathly silence is undoubtedly a kind of torture. A kind of torment.

The Wei soldiers who were carrying their shields on the front line only took a hundred or so steps forward, and they were already dripping with cold sweat and their steps were difficult, not because the steepness of the mountain road made them unable to take a step, but the heavy psychological pressure really made it difficult for them to walk.

Responsible for commanding the first attack wave is the Wei army Yamen general Hao Chong, is Sima Wang's brave general, Hao Chongneng served as the commander of the first attack, his heart is naturally very excited, Meng Sima Dadu Governor valued, this is an opportunity to show his face. Maybe the fame and wealth of this life will be done in this battle.

Hao Chong naturally didn't dare to slack off in the slightest. Wearing heavy armor, holding a shield in his left hand and a spear in his right hand, he personally walked in the forefront of the team, taking the lead, and wanted to perform well in front of Sima Wang.

But how could these soldiers under his command not be angry, and the chain fell off at the critical moment, and the usual spirit was gone, which made Hao Chong couldn't help but be angry, and reprimanded his soldiers angrily, and strictly ordered them to speed up the march, and if they dared to cower, they would be punished by military law.

All the soldiers understood that the most important punishment of military law was to kill the head, Hao Zhong was short-tempered, brave and harsh, and all the soldiers were afraid, so they had to speed up the march according to the order, and rushed to the top of the mountain with all their might.

Stretching out the head is a knife, shrinking the head is also a knife, anyway, horizontal and vertical is a death, these Wei troops obviously let go of the burden in their hearts, their morale is high, and their feet are faster, seeing that they are less than 100 steps away from the Shu army camp on the top of the mountain.

Fu Yan saw it clearly from behind the barracks, but he didn't give the order to attack early. The huge formation of 100,000 horses of the Wei army under the mountain Fu Yan could already see it clearly, and he understood that the battle of Jieting would be a protracted and vicious battle, and he had to make long-term and arduous preparations. The Wei army sent the first batch of attack echelons, obviously not using their real strength, this attack was more tentative, wanting to see how tough the defense of the Shu army on the top of the mountain was.

Fu Yan didn't want to waste too many arrows, since the Battle of Jieting was a protracted battle, every arrow would be precious.

"Pass my order, no one is allowed to fire a single arrow until the Wei soldiers enter the firing range!" Fu Yi ordered in a deep voice, and his gaze never left the attacking Wei soldiers.

From the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, there is at least a range of about two arrows, shooting in advance, can not cause any damage to the Wei soldiers, only when they enter the effective range of about 100 steps, can the bow and arrow exert the maximum power.

The Wei army was densely packed in one place, a row of about a dozen people, dozens of rows of people looked very large, and the mountain road that was not wide, like locusts, was almost covered with Wei soldiers.

They crossed the hundred-step line, which was a sign that Fu He had deliberately left on the hillside, but he did not order the attack, and Fu Yan's cold gaze stared at every step of the Wei army.

Closer, closer, so that the bow and arrow will be more powerful.

After crossing the hundred-step line, the Wei army's brigade of soldiers still maintained a relatively fast speed and advanced forward. As they got closer and closer to the Shu army's camp, the Wei soldiers seemed to be a little excited, and the first to break through the enemy's camp were generally richly rewarded, and in the face of the temptation of great benefits, they seemed to have forgotten the danger of death lurking behind the camp fence, and launched a quick assault on the top of the mountain with a shout.

"Seventy steps...... Sixty steps...... Fifty steps ......" Fu Yan silently recited in his heart, and suddenly his eyes burst out with two essences, and he shouted in a low and powerful voice: "Attack!" ”

The Shu army, which had been hiding behind the camp fence for a long time, suddenly broke out at this moment, and the sound of killing was everywhere, and a red ocean seemed to appear in front of the Wei army's eyes, and before they could be stunned, countless arrows fell on their heads like a shower.

Although the Wei army was well prepared to attack the mountain, and the Wei soldiers who served as the first attack wave were all dressed in iron armor and holding shields, but under the attack of the rain of arrows without dead ends, the protective measures they took were obviously far from enough, although the heavy armor on their bodies and the shields in their hands blocked a lot of arrows for them, but there were always some tricky arrows that passed through the layers of protection and gave them a fatal blow.

Most of the Wei soldiers who walked in the first row at the forefront had already fallen to the ground with arrows, but the bows and arrows of the Shu army seemed to have no gaps to stop, and they continued to shoot out, lacking the human shields of the first row, and the Wei soldiers in the second row, the third row and even the Wei soldiers in the back also suffered, and some people kept screaming in despair and fell on the mountain road.
