Chapter 1596 1598【Conquer Laojun View】
Liu Jin then sent out a large army to suppress the rebellion. The vanguard was as high as 3,000 people, led by He Kun, and marched towards Funiu Mountain.
When the army is dispatched, it is natural that it cannot be hidden from the eyes of those who are interested.
Xiang Nan and Jun Bao also received the news early, and immediately galloped back to Laojun Mountain on horseback.
After returning to the mountain, organize a counterattack on the spot.
Fortunately, Deng Chang, Zhu Gui and others stayed on the mountain before and started preparations early, so they didn't panic and be at a loss.
It's a pity that He Kun led the cavalry at an extremely fast speed, and it was too late to notify the nearby people to go up the mountain, so they could only resign themselves to their fate.
Because there has been a folk proverb since ancient times, the passing of thieves is like a comb, and the passing of soldiers is like a grate. Officers and soldiers are more vicious than bandits, not only burning, killing and looting, but also killing good people and pretending to be meritorious.
…
"Master, the traps are ready, and the rolling logs and stones, strong bows and crossbows are all equipped." Deng Chang said to Xiang Nan.
"Yeah." Xiang Nan nodded, "Everyone is well protected, and the armor is neatly equipped. If you can block it, block it, if you can't block it, run away, don't make unnecessary sacrifices."
"No matter what the master says, the disciples will not give an inch, and vow to live and die with Taijimen." Deng Chang and others swore after hearing this.
"This statement is absurd!" Xiang Nan waved his hands when he heard this, "Tai Chi Gate is neither Laojun Temple nor Laojun Temple. Tai Chi Gate is you, me, and all the disciples. As long as there are people, Tai Chi The gate is there. If no one is there, what's the use of leaving a mountain gate.
If the land is lost, people will be lost. Save people and lose land, and all people and land will survive. Keep the green hills, and don't worry about no firewood. Preserve the useful body, and sooner or later Taijimen will restore its glory. "
"Disciples keep in mind Master's teaching." Deng Chang and others said immediately.
…
While talking, the army has arrived at the foot of the mountain.
Afterwards, He Kun led an army to attack the mountain.
Xiang Nan and Jun Bao led their disciples to block the attack.
Laojun Mountain is more than 2,000 meters above sea level. The terrain is steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Many mountain roads are narrow and difficult to walk, and only one person can pass through. It can be said that if one man guards the gate, ten thousand men cannot open it.
Xiang Nan and others set up a pass at the Nantianmen on the mountainside, and prepared fortifications such as rolling logs and stones, strong bows and crossbows.
An hour later, the army arrived at Nantianmen.
Under the urging of the supervisory team, all the soldiers raised their shields high, forming a shield wall, and slowly climbed up the mountain.
Behind all the soldiers, there are thousands of archers, shooting arrows up the mountain together.
Arrows rained down like rain, posing a great threat to Xiang Nan and the others.
Fortunately, Xiang Nan had already made preparations and built fortifications with huge stones, so the arrow rain was blocked one after another, and no one was injured.
Seeing the officers and soldiers approaching the Nantian Gate, Xiang Nan and Jun Bao raised their swords and slashed at the rope.
As soon as the rope was broken, dozens of rolling logs, which were as thick as an arm, rolled down the mountain with a rumble.
The **** of Nantianmen is extremely steep, so when the log falls, it has great potential energy. Although the officers and soldiers formed a shield wall, they still couldn't stop the serial impacts of dozens of giant trees.
In an instant, those who were killed were killed, and those who were injured were injured. Hundreds of people were killed and injured in one wave, many of them were smashed into meatloaf, and their death conditions were extremely miserable.
Those who didn’t die screamed miserably, frightening the other soldiers so that they didn’t dare to charge forward.
"Go up to me, go up to me, pass the order down, whoever rushes up first, I will reward him with a gold ingot." Seeing this, He Kun immediately urged.
Under the so-called heavy reward, there must be brave men. Under the lure of money and the intimidation of the supervising team, a group of soldiers still bravely continued to attack the mountain.
Still holding up the shield wall, or shooting bows and arrows.
Xiang Nan, together with Jun Bao, cut off the rope that set the trap.
Immediately, countless boulders roared down, taking away those officers and soldiers again.
…
Lost two hundred soldiers at once, and the morale of the remaining soldiers suddenly fell to the bottom.
Refused to make complete statistics, the ancient army's casualty rate exceeded 10%, and morale would be low. If it exceeds 30%, it will be defeated. What's more, when Song and Jin fought, hundreds of thousands of Song troops were chased by thousands of Jin soldiers, and they were defeated.
Liu Jin's army is not considered elite. Nearly 10% of the troops were lost, but they couldn't even see the opponent's appearance clearly, so the morale was naturally very low.
"Wang Fu Dao Tong, Zhao Fu Dao Tong, raise soldiers for a thousand days, and use them for a while, now is the time for you to serve. Don't worry, they have used up all the rolling logs and rocks, so they don't have any tricks." Seeing this, He Kun , Immediately found the two assistant sword commanders, "Whoever can lead the troops to rush up, I will strongly recommend him to my father-in-law, and recommend him to be the right sword commander."
Hearing what he said, the eyes of the two Deputy Sword Commanders immediately lit up.
For them, money is not important, power is more important. Liu Jin has eight deputy sword commanders, and he is short of a full-time sword commander.
If you can become a Zheng Dao Tong, you will be promoted to a noble, and your salary will be worry-free.
"Assuming a humble job, I must live up to my father-in-law's expectations." Both of them bowed and saluted, and then rushed forward with their soldiers.
"Master, they are here again." Deng Chang looked at Xiang Nandao.
Xiang Nan nodded, and then ordered, "Get ready, don't worry, wait for them to come up before throwing away."
Wang Fudaotong and Zhao Fudaotong led their confidants and rushed up the mountain in the first place, lest they be rushed up by the other party first.
Seeing that they rushed halfway and there was no news from above, the two of them were determined, thinking that Xiang Nan and the others had no support, so they rushed even more fiercely.
In an instant, it has arrived.
At this moment, Xiang Nan yelled to throw it away, and then several smoking iron cans were thrown out, falling among the officers and soldiers. Immediately afterwards, there was a boom, a series of explosions.
The iron can exploded and debris flew across, killing and injuring one in an instant. Wang Fudaotong and Zhao Fudaotong rushed to the front, and were also bombed the hardest, and they all became **** men.
When the remaining officers and soldiers saw that the opponent still had firearms, they didn't dare to step forward, shouted, and all fled.
"Fleeers, behead!" Seeing this, He Kun stepped forward with a knife and beheaded several deserters on the spot. Otherwise, if they are rushed by these deserters, the rest of the soldiers will have to run away.
At that time, the army will be defeated like a mountain, and it will be impossible to stop it.
Just when he was standing up, Xiang Nan had already held the javelin in his hand, aimed it at He Kun who was down the mountain, and threw it.
Javelins are much heavier than bows and arrows. When falling from above, the gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. The higher the mass, the greater the kinetic energy.
Although He Kun was covered in armor, he could not be hurt by idle feather arrows, but he still couldn't stop the rapidly falling javelin.
As a result, there was a pop, and the javelin passed through the body directly, opening a big hole one after the other. Even so, the potential energy of the javelin still remained undiminished, and it pierced through three soldiers again before stopping.
"Ah! Director He is dead~" Seeing that He Kun was dead, the soldiers were even more frightened, and their morale was completely lost for a while.
At this moment, Xiang Nan roared, holding a big knife, and led all the heroes to rush down.
Those soldiers had already lost their morale. Seeing Xiang Nan and the others rushing down in a threatening manner, they couldn't tell how many people were rushing down for a while, so they turned their heads and ran away in fright.
Once they ran, they drove the people behind to run too, you pushed me, I squeezed you, and ran down the mountain together, only hating my parents for losing two legs.
