Wang Baoyu drew on his previous experience in defending the city and proposed to Zhuge Liang a method to suppress the archers of the city wall, which was actually very simple, that is, piling up soil into a mountain, which Jia Xu and Cao Pi used when they attacked Yiling, and also posed a great threat to Yiling.

Zhuge Liang praised Wang Baoyu's good brain, decisively accepted the plan of piling up a mountain of dirt, and immediately ordered Zhao Yun to lead all the troops to complete this work in the shortest possible time.

There are guards on the city wall with poisoned arrows, and doing this with great fanfare may cause casualties, Zhao Yun ordered all the soldiers to prepare with a bag of soil wrapped in their underwear, and there must be no mistake.

Although the soldiers did not understand what they wanted to do, they did so one after another, and a layer of ground near the camp of the army was scraped off.

In the middle of the night, Zhao Yun poured all the troops and quietly touched towards Sanjiang City, in addition to the 100,000 soldiers and horses taken away by Wei Yan and E Huan, there were 300,000 troops here, no one rode horses, nor did they bring weapons, everyone carried a bag of soil on their backs.

When they arrived at their destination, Zhao Yun asked the soldiers to pour the soil wrapped in their clothes on the ground in batches, and then immediately returned quickly.

When I went, I was heavy, but when I came back, I was relaxed, and the soldiers were very active about it, and the speed of doing things was very fast, and the night was so dark that no one even noticed the victorious southern barbarians on the city wall.

The idiom of accumulating soil into a mountain is indeed true, 300,000 troops, one person and one bag of soil, waiting for the day to dawn, the barbarians of Sanjiang City were dumbfounded, and overnight, there was a mountain of earth higher than the city wall on the opposite side of the city.

Not only Tushan, but also a group of powerful generals such as Bao Sanniang, Qian Mo and Fan Jinqiang, led the sturdy soldiers to build a row of stone walls to block the attack of poisonous arrows.

Looking at this earth mountain and stone wall, Zhuge Liang's face showed a satisfied smile, and the remaining task was how to force King Mulu to give up the use of poisoned arrows and go out of the city to face it head-on.

This was not a difficult matter, and the guns and crossbows brought by Wang Baoyu played a heavy role, and rows of crossbowmen hid behind the stone walls of the earth mountain, and with the help of narrow stone cracks, they shot the barbarian archers on the city walls from above.

The barbarians defending the city were all dumbfounded, there were only dirt and stone walls on the opposite side, and there were no soldiers in sight, how could there be arrows flying? Moreover, this arrow is very accurate, and it will die when it shows its head.

The brute had to hide behind the battlements all day long, and the threat of poisoned arrows was completely suppressed, of course, even now, it was not suitable to start a siege, once the war was in full swing, I am afraid that the other side would adopt a very aggressive and fearless way of death.

"Hehe, I'll shoot thirty brutes today!"

"I'll shoot fifty of them!"

"I'm not much, but I'm twenty!"

The crossbowmen reported their achievements, Wang Baoyu praised them with a smile, and Sun Shangxiang personally presented the award to the winner, and the reward was a little red flower.

The poisonous arrow was useless, and King Mulu's face became gloomy, and the attack that could happen at any time made him uneasy for a while.

It is necessary to suppress the momentum of the Shu army, King Mulu thought so, found Meng Shu, and ordered with his hands behind his back: "King Meng, I have been trapped here for a long time, it is not a proper strategy, tomorrow you can lead the army to challenge the Shu generals, and strive to destroy Tushan." ”

Meng Shu was very annoyed, no one dared to point fingers at him, and he really felt that he had voted for the wrong person. But in order to show sincerity before, the military power had already been handed over, and it was rumored that King Mulu would know spells, and after seeing his viciousness with his own eyes, Meng Shu couldn't afford to provoke him, so he had to nod sullenly and agree.

"Mulu is very hateful, and he actually let me go out of the city to meet the enemy. Alas, if I am caught by the Shu army again, my safety is small, lest Mulu harm you. Back in the mansion, Meng Shu sighed.

"Today's Mulu's temperament has changed greatly, and he must have forgotten his friendship with his father. It's just that the Han army is strong, and if the king goes out of the city to face the battle, he will inevitably be captured again. ”

Mrs. Zhurong actually meant that if it didn't work, it would come down, but in a different euphemistic way, but Meng Shu's mind was not here, and he said in a muffled voice: "If I don't go out of the city, Mulu will definitely not give up." It is better to die in the hands of Zhuge Liang than to be poisoned by Mulu. Madam, if I can't come back, I will definitely go to my father-in-law again, he still has you in his heart. ”

"King!" Mrs. Zhurong held her husband's hand tightly, thought for a moment, and made a decision: "It's better to be like this, the king will wait in the city tomorrow, and when I personally go into battle, I will meet the general of the Shu army in a while." ”

"No, if the lady makes a mistake, how can she bear to steal the life?" Meng Shu can't wait to slap his ears, see the truth in adversity, this daughter-in-law really didn't find fault.

"It's okay, Zhuge Liang let you back five times, and he won't harm me." Mrs. Zhurong insisted.

"Zhuge Liang was angered by Mulu, but I am afraid that he will also have murderous intent."

"If I don't return, the king may go to my father and beg him to take him in."

The husband and wife argued for a long time, analyzed various interests and disadvantages, and finally decided that Mrs. Zhurong would go out to meet the enemy.

The next morning, the north gate of Sanjiang City was finally opened, a team of more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, slowly came to the front of the formation, the leader of the body is well-proportioned, the appearance is excellent, holding a javelin, the back of the flying knife, came to the front of the formation to stand up to the horse, heroic posture, it is Mrs. Zhurong.

The sun hung high, and the thick eyelashes reflected a shadow under the big European eyes, occasionally flickering twice, as if brushing everyone's heart, itchy, many people were stunned.

No wonder the little woman is so good-looking, I didn't expect her mother to be more beautiful than her, it should be the flowery father Meng Huo who lowered his appearance, I don't know when I can see each other again, the flower in my arms has long been dried up. Guan Suo touched his chin and recalled the first meeting with Hua Yan, and laughed for a while, and was punched by his daughter-in-law Bao Sanniang, and hurriedly said: "Meng Shu ordered his wife to come out to fight, which is disgraceful!" If I am Guan Suo, I would rather die in battle than let Sanniang be in danger! ”

Meng Shu asked his daughter-in-law to fight for him, and even King Mulu couldn't get used to it, this kind of person really didn't deserve to be the king of the south, and he should have given way a long time ago.

"It's Mrs. Zhurong?" Zhuge Liang sat in a small car, slowly appeared from the flag, smiled and asked loudly.

"It is under the bottom that I thank the prime minister for not killing her husband." Mrs. Zhurong is far away, neither humble nor arrogant.

"Madame understands the righteousness, why don't you persuade King Nan to surrender as soon as possible, so as not to ruin the lives of the people." Zhuge Liang asked.

Mrs. Zhurong looked back at the city wall, with a wry smile on her face, her husband is in the hands of others, even if she has this heart, she can't promise anything at this time.

"I wish Rong Bucai, and I am willing to fight with the general of Shuzhong." Mrs. Zhurong did not answer Zhuge Liang's question, raised the black javelin in her hand, and made a gesture of challenge.
