Since ancient times, the higher the mountain, the more dangerous the terrain. The same is true for Quang Ninh Mountain, where there is only one road leading to the top.

So when Qin Feng retreated to the top of Guangning Mountain, he quickly took advantage of the terrain and landform to occupy the only passage and defend it.

Gongsun Chan sent more than 10,000 people to line up and continue to attack. Although he occupies an absolute advantage in troops, the elite of the Qin army, and the unparalleled fierce generals like Xu Chu and Dian Wei, plus the terrain of one man and ten thousand people. Gongsun Jun suffered countless casualties, and his blood gathered like a stream, flowing down the only mountain road.

On the other hand, the Qin army, under the leadership of military advisors Xu Shu and Jia Xu, attacked Gongsun Zhan. The soldiers of the Qin army used their lives, and the pressure on Gongsun Zan doubled. He temporarily gave up attacking Qin Feng on the top of the mountain, and set up a defensive position on the mountainside, with the help of the mountain, which was the same as Qin Feng, blocking the offensive of the Qin army.

There is only one road on the top of Quang Ninh Mountain, and the mountains are steep and difficult to climb. Qin Feng was surrounded here, and immediately looked around for a water source. Thankfully, a spring was eventually found, but unfortunately, it was only enough for a few dozen people to drink.

The soldiers of the Qin army who followed Qin Feng up the mountain had been fighting all night and were already thirsty. Without water and besieged, Qin Feng knew that within a day, these soldiers would lose their combat effectiveness, not to mention that there were tens of thousands of enemy troops under the mountain, even if there were only a few hundred, it would be enough to kill him many times.

Qin Feng looked up to the sky and sighed: "The true phase died here!" ”

Later generations have a poem that says: "Heaven helps Gongsun to be idle, and Qin Shi is trapped in Guangning: Pang Juan began to enter Maling Road, and Xiang Yu began to surround Jiuli Mountain." ”

……

At the foot of the mountain, more than 100,000 Qin troops lined up, surrounding the entire Guangning Mountain like an iron bucket.

Before the battle. The two major divisions of the Qin army and the four generals gathered together to discuss.

"Master Xu, the lord is surrounded on the mountain. And Gongsun Chan occupied the mountain and could not attack it for a long time. How good is that! Zhao Yun said eagerly.

Xu Shu anxiously looked up at Guangning Mountain and said: "Gongsun Zhan's purpose is the lord, and he can't use tactics to mobilize his troops, and now there is only one way to attack." ”

Jia Xu stroked his beard, he had always been calm and composed, but at the moment he looked impatient and said: "General Zilong, you and the three generals Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, and Zhang He, each have a 10,000-strong formation. Take turns attacking. Be sure to break through the Gongsun Chan army on the mountainside before tomorrow. ”

"Whoa!" The four generals of Zhao Yun commanded. They were eager to rescue the lord on the top of the mountain in the next moment, and they immediately mobilized elite soldiers and horses and began to storm Guangning Mountain.

For a time, the sound of killing up and down Guangning Mountain shook the sky, the arrows were like locusts shooting up and down, and the soldiers were like forests.

The Gongsun army occupied the mountain, and although its strength was only one-third of that of the Qin army, it had a great advantage.

The Qin army lost more than 10,000 people in an hour, regardless of the losses. Even the mountains are full of corpses. Rivers of blood. From a distance, under the sunlight, the mountain glows red.

Xu Shu, who was watching the battle at the bottom of the mountain, was sweating profusely and said to Jia Xu: "Jia Junshi." Such an offensive is probably ....... ”

Jia Xu was expressionless, and said lightly: "Even if the whole army is wiped out." It can't be stopped. ”

Gongsun Jun side.

Gongsun Zhan first used 3,000 elites to see the passage up the mountain. Prepare for Qin Feng's assault from the top of the mountain. He arranged the rest of his troops and horses on the steep mountainside to resist the attack of the Qin army at the foot of the mountain.

"Hahaha....... Attack, attack. With such a method of warfare, in less than two days, Qin Feng's army would be completely lost. Although Gongsun Chan was surrounded, he surrounded Qin Feng on the top of the mountain, and he had the heaviest chips in his hands. He was not afraid that the Qin army would attack, and the more fierce the Qin army would attack and the more it would die, the more beneficial it would be for him.

Qin Feng at the top of the mountain saw it clearly, he had no crisis for the time being, and he didn't want his troops to lose too much.

He immediately wrote a book, summoned Xu Chu, and said in a deep voice: "Zhongkang, shoot the strong bow down the mountain." ”

Xu Chushi's tiger general, with a strong bow and crossbow, shot Qin Feng's handwritten book down the mountain.

After the little school got it, he hurriedly sent it to Xu Shu and Jia Xu.

The two took a look, looked at each other, and suddenly realized.

Qin Feng's letter wrote: "The military division should not let the army attack, that would only lose the soldiers and horses in vain, and should camp at the foot of the mountain to besiege Gongsun Zhan." The military advisor should know that Gongsun Zhan was surrounded on the mountainside, and he also had no food and water sources. I believe that I will hold on to it for a longer .......

"What should I do?" Xu Shu said.

Jia Xu frowned and said, "Gongsun Zhan has made all the preparations for the garrison, our army is attacking so strongly, when the strength is contrasted, there is really no hope at all." In addition, the lord sees it more thoroughly than us, and Gongsun Chan is also short of water and food. The lord thinks that the response that has been done well will definitely be able to persist longer than Gongsun Zhan. ”

"At that time, Gongsun Zhan's men and horses will be thirsty, and they will be in chaos without a fight." Xu Shu nodded, on the other hand, he also knew that only by maintaining the advantage of his strength could he threaten Gongsun Zhan. If your own forces are really lost in the assault, then you really can't restrain Gongsun Zhan.

As a result, the two military advisors conveyed Qin Feng's order, and the Qin army temporarily stopped the attack, so they surrounded the mountain and camped, firmly besieging Gongsun Zhan.

The Qin army stopped the offensive and began to set up camp as if it had been besieged for a long time. Gongsun Zan was puzzled when he saw it, and he immediately gave an order to storm Qin Feng on the top of the mountain again.

At this time, Guan Jing, a strategist of the Gongsun army, said: "Lord, our army occupies a favorable position, and the Qin army cannot attack it and suffers heavy losses. And Qin Feng also occupies a favorable position on the mountain, and a strong attack is not good for our army. There is a shortage of water in Guangning Mountain, and when the Qin army runs out of water, it will be weak and powerless in less than two days, and it only takes a few colonels to catch Qin Zijin, catch Qin Zijin, and threaten him with him, and his army will immediately disperse. You must not attack too aggressively, if you lose too many troops, you will not be able to resist the Qin army under the mountain. ”

After thinking about it for a while, Gongsun Chan felt that what Guan Jing said made sense. After thinking about it again, he felt that he had 40,000 horses, which was much bigger than Qin Feng, who had 1,000 people on the top of the mountain.

As a result, Gongsun Chan ordered the whole army to cut down the trees on the mountain and open the mountain to take stones, build a cottage, and prepare rolling stones and sassal wood to resist the Qin army at the foot of the mountain. As a result, the mountains of Guangning Mountain, under the wanton felling and mining of 40,000 people of Gongsun Army, appeared a large area of loose soil.

In this way, Qin Feng's army was at the bottom of the mountain, Gongsun Zan was on the mountainside, and Qin Feng was at the top of the mountain, holding each other back.

And so the day passed.

Early the next morning, Qin Feng woke up in a loud noise.

He hurried out of the tent to check, and saw many soldiers surrounding the officer and making a lot of noise.

"I'm numb, isn't it just that I haven't drunk water for a day, just endure it and it's over, what a noise!" Dian Wei's loud voice came.

The area of the top of the mountain is not very vast, so when Qin Feng appeared, everyone saw it.

The soldiers of the Qin army were loyal, and when they saw the appearance of the lord, they immediately stopped making noise. Qi Bai said: "Lord." ”

"What's going on?" Seeing that the army's heart was unstable, Qin Feng asked very calmly.

Xu Chu immediately said: "Lord, the soldiers haven't drunk water for several days, and they see a spring on the top of the mountain, so they ......." ”

Qin Feng understood that a person could go without eating for a few days or even ten days, but he couldn't go without drinking water. Although there is a spring on the top of the mountain, it is only enough for a few dozen people to drink, and there are as many as a thousand soldiers on the top of the mountain.

Except for the soldiers on guard, hundreds of people knelt in front of Qin Feng, looking at him with blank eyes, their eyes full of longing.

These soldiers desperately protected Qin Feng from the encirclement, and now even if they were surrounded on the mountain, they did not have a trace of fear. "They just want a sip of water...... Qin Feng lowered his head and said, "Except for the soldiers on guard, the rest of the people went to the spring with their own appearance. ”

When the soldiers heard about the spring, they were overjoyed and hurriedly followed Qin Feng.

The so-called spring is a crack in the mountain, and the clear water bubbles outward, but the flow is too small. Qin Feng ordered someone to dig a pit to store water yesterday, and he only stored dozens of catties in one day.

Qin Feng looked at the spring water in the pit in his loneliness and said to the soldiers: "This is our only water source." He ordered, "Zhongkang, order the soldiers to line up and let all the soldiers drink water as much as possible." ”

"Lord!" Dian Wei was anxious, and hurriedly took out a kettle from his arms, filled a pot with a grunt, and presented it: "The lord drinks first." ”

When the soldiers heard the sound of water, their throats gurgled, but they did not swallow a single saliva. Only then did they know that there was only such a small source of water.

Xu Chu said to them indignantly: "Actually, we officers have never drunk water until now, even the lord ...... I didn't drink a single thing. ”

"The lord has never drunk water!" The soldiers immediately blushed.

Dian Wei scolded: "It's numb, the lord said yesterday that he should save it for those who need it most." He continued to be furious, and said, "You little rabbits, all weak little chickens, are not for you in the end. ”

The soldiers were immediately embarrassed.

"Lord, take a sip first!" Dian Wei turned his head and bowed down and said.

Qin Feng gently took the kettle, he hadn't drunk water for a day, the unique sweet smell of the spring water made the cells in his body that had begun to dry up, and there was a strong desire. However, he still held back, he overturned the kettle, and as the water in the kettle fell back into the pit, he said quietly: "The original appearance can still hold on, and with this water, more soldiers can quench their thirst." ”

He flicked the kettle, and the last drop of water returned to the puddle. He threw the kettle to Dian Wei, barely smiled, and said, "Okay, we still have water, everyone line up and prepare to receive water." ”

He turned silently, the smile on his face disappeared, his eyes full of loneliness, and gradually walked towards a cliff behind him. He looked at the green mountains outside, his eyes were like a trapped eagle, longing for freedom from the outside world. Soon, however, his gaze became firm.

He clenched his fists tightly, facing the vast and continuous mountains, he raised his arms violently and shouted: "Qin Feng, you will definitely be able to persevere, you must persevere!" ”

"Persistence...... Hang on...... Hang on....... Qin Feng's voice echoed in the boundless mountains.

In the face of the king's cry, the scorching sun in the sky, as if it knew that it had done something wrong, hurried to hide in the clouds, and the earth was suddenly cool. (To be continued......)
