Chapter 94: Contributing Advice and Suggestions
The woman's mind was more delicate. Seeing that Yunfeng was noncommittal to Jiang Fa's proposal, Zhuge Fei guessed some of the reasons and asked: "General, are you worried about insufficient food and grass? Will it be difficult to support the capture of Fucheng?"
Yun Feng nodded and said: "Yes, this is what I am worried about. At present, our army's food and grass can only be used for more than a month. It will take another month for the follow-up food and grass to arrive. If we divide our troops and go south at this time, the troops going south are likely to run out of food.
And if the entire army is annihilated and the troops going south are allowed to bring more food and grass, then this place will be in a food shortage crisis again. Does Miss Zhuge have a solution?"
Zhuge Fei pondered for a long time before he hesitated and said: "The general's concerns are indeed a dead end, but I have an idea, but it's not very feasible. I wonder if the general would like to hear it?"
"Oh?" Yunfeng was overjoyed and said impatiently: "Miss Zhuge, please speak."
Zhuge Fei said sternly: "Liangshan Mountain stretches for more than a hundred miles. To the north is a thousand-foot cliff, which is like a knife cutting an axe. To the south, it is just the opposite. There are continuous peaks, but the terrain is relatively gentle. If the general can find a way to send an army
If you climb sharply across Liangshan, you can go around to the back of Jiange and seize Guancheng when Li Xiong is unprepared."
Yunfeng was shocked. It turned out to be a good idea. His scorching eyes couldn't help but glanced back and forth at Zhuge Fei's beautiful face several times. If the old guy Jiang Fa hadn't been there, he would probably have been unable to help but rush forward and hug Zhuge Fei.
Fei kissed her hard to express his inner gratitude. Climbing mountains was nothing to him. One of the training items for the guards was rock climbing. Although the rock walls he usually climbed were not as high as Liangshan, he could do it himself.
Climb up first and set up the rope
Yunfeng's temporary lapse was clearly seen by the three people in the hall. Zhuge Fei and the two pretty maids looked at each other and read a hint of joy in each other's eyes. If Yun Feng really had any thoughts about Zhuge Fei, then
They can also benefit from it. As personal and pretty maids, they also have to marry. This was the social custom at that time. Although it is unfair to most maids, in the eyes of these two, it is a good thing that they can only dream of.
You must know that they are not young at all. They have been with Zhuge Fei for so many years and are already twenty-four or five-year-old women. Although out of the relationship between master and servant, she has repeatedly rejected Zhuge Fei's proposal to betroth them to others.
But I’m also anxious
Moreover, Yunfeng has a good temperament, a high status, and a promising future. Even if they marry him and become his maid, they will be very happy.
Although Jiang Fa pretended not to see it, there was a huge wave in his heart. Yun Feng was attracted to Zhuge Fei. This was something he didn't even dare to think about. He couldn't help but start thinking about it. If this was really the case, Tianji would
It will be a pleasure to go up and down the door
Especially Zhuge Xian, the master of the Tianji Sect, would be so happy that he could not sleep for three days and three nights. This daughter was his heartache. She had eye problems and was so old that she couldn't get married. Being picked up by Yunfeng was the most important thing.
Couldn't be better
Jiang Fa felt that he should report this matter to Zhuge Xian as soon as possible. He was even thinking that he had two unmarried granddaughters. They were sixteen or seventeen years old and looked pretty good. Should they also be placed in Yunfeng?
around?
In fact, they are all too preoccupied. Although Yunfeng has some affection for Zhuge Fei, at present, he is limited to admiration and a faint excitement like an affair that remains deep in his memory. It is still too early to talk about marriage.
The abnormality of these three people was fleeting, and Yunfeng was not aware of it. Gradually, he recovered from his ecstasy, saluted Zhuge Fei and said: "Miss Zhuge's words suddenly opened the door. I will thank you in advance."
If the sword pavilion is destroyed, Miss Zhuge is indispensable."
Zhuge Fei responded with a salute: "The general is in such a hurry, the slave family cannot bear the responsibility. It is just a subordinate's duty to provide advice and suggestions to the general. Moreover, we have not yet known whether it is feasible. It is too early for the general to express his thanks."
Yunfeng smiled slightly. He was more than 80% sure of passing the test, so he stopped talking about it. He chatted with the two of them for a few more words, and soon they said goodbye and left.
That night, Yunfeng's wives seemed to have agreed upon it, and they refused to do that with him on the excuse of feeling sick and uncomfortable. Yunfeng had no choice but to hug his sisters from one side to the other and have a rare, refreshing sleep.
Early the next morning, he led several hundred personal guards to the entrance of the pavilion. Looking from a distance, the cliffs on both sides were about 300 feet high and made of huge conglomerate, just like two city walls.
There is no 90 degrees, at least there must be 80 degrees. The rock wall is smooth, there are no vines or wild trees, and there are large irregular bulges, which is obviously not conducive to climbing.
Yunfeng shook his head and continued to search forward. After walking for nearly five miles, the rock surface above his head was relatively straight, with an angle of about 85 degrees, but fortunately there was no obstacle.
Yunfeng was secretly satisfied, stopped, and asked for simple mountain climbing equipment from his guards. Wang Gui asked for his orders: "How can a general risk his own life? It is better for the last general to go up."
Yunfeng shook his head and said: "You can't climb up with bare hands." His strength has not been perfected, and he will be exhausted before he can climb halfway.
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help showing a look of shame on their faces. Yunfeng said slightly: "Okay, practicing is not something that can be accomplished overnight. When you are at this point, there is no point in rushing. This time when we conquer Chengdu, we must experience life and feel more carefully.
There are all kinds of things in life, if you can gain something, maybe it is not so difficult to transform your strength, do you understand?"
The guards all proudly said yes
Yunfeng's climbing equipment is very simple, a tight-fitting burlap suit with cuffs and trousers tightened. Since he doesn't have special hiking shoes, he simply doesn't wear them anymore. He climbs barefoot with a sharp dagger on his waist and a knife on his back.
Two two-foot-long thick steel awls and a fifty-foot-long strong rope were tied to it.
In the whole set of equipment, the rope is the heaviest and has the largest volume. Fifty feet is the limit for carrying. Adding the length, the weight is not much, but the large and soft volume will affect the balance of the body.
Yunfeng took a deep breath and used his hands and feet to climb up like an ape. People couldn't help but have an illusion. Is it a cliff or a flat ground in front of him?
This made the guards watching below marvel and envy them. If it were them, it would never be so easy. I saw a black dot change from big to small, rise rapidly, and soon stop at the predetermined position.
Yunfeng climbed to a place with slight undulations on the wall in one breath. He dug his toes into the wall tightly. He quickly freed up a hand and pulled out the steel awl on his back like lightning. He stabbed the wall with all his strength and made a soft sound.
, the steel cone sank into a depth of one foot, as if the rock wall was not made of hard conglomerate, but soft sand.
Immediately afterwards, he pulled out another rope and tied it half a foot parallel to the right side. What was left was the most difficult task of tying the rope.
He grasped the steel awl with one hand and dug into the rock wall with both feet. With the other hand, he took out a rope head from the rope coiled on his back. He slowly pulled it out and carefully wrapped it around the two steel awls.
After making a strong knot, he threw the rope down on his back, and a fifty-foot-long rope bridge appeared precariously on the cliff.
In an instant, thunderous cheers erupted below
This hand looks easy, but it is actually very dangerous, especially when winding the rope. Due to the strong wind on the cliff, you can only maintain your balance with one hand. If you are not careful, you will be shattered to pieces, even if you are strong.
It's no use either
After climbing up and down five more times, the three-hundred-foot-long rope bridge was finally completed. As the height increased, the danger became more and more serious each time.
Yunfeng let out a long breath and stood alone on the top of the cliff, looking south. As Zhuge Fei said, the mountains were endless and endless.
In fact, the scenery is quite good, but Yunfeng is not in the slightest mood now. Instead, he is secretly complaining in his heart. There are many mountains and there is no end in sight. How long will it take to go around to the back of Jiange?
If Li Xiong had also guarded against this move and posted hidden sentries at the main crossings at the foot of the mountain, then this surprise attack would have been declared a failure.
Yunfeng shook his head and thought it was better to explore the road first. He withdrew his gaze and looked down, only to see that the road under the cliff was as thin and curved as a thread, and the guards were not much bigger than ants. At such a high place, it would be early for ordinary people to change.
His legs were weak and he was trembling all over, but it had no effect on him. He grabbed the rope, jumped up, and slid to the bottom of the valley.
After resting for a while, Yunfeng took some of his guards to climb up. It was very easy with ropes. Not long after, a group of more than ten people climbed to the top of the cliff.
When they first saw this spectacular sight of mountains and hills, both men and women were shocked. Their faces gradually showed emotion, and they stared at the picture-scroll-like scenery.
Yunfeng interrupted disappointedly: "Come on, let's go down to explore the road. Be careful. If there is a hidden sentry posted by the Cheng army, we will be in trouble."
Su Qizhen frowned and said: "General, wait a minute, I have a suggestion. I don't know whether I should talk about it or not?"
"Oh?" Yunfeng said with great interest: "Tell me and listen."
Su Qizhen pointed in the direction of the sword pavilion and said: "General, I think we might as well walk forward to see what the terrain is like above the sword pavilion. If it is suitable, we can throw kerosene bombs down from the top of the mountain. In this way, there is no need to detour for a sneak attack, and it will be easy to capture the sword pavilion."
"
Yunfeng was startled. This method is indeed good. It is simple and easy to implement. It saves a lot of time compared to a detour and a sneak attack. He couldn't help but joked: "Haha, you can't tell. Qizhen can also make suggestions now. Come on, let's go up and take a look.
Look"
Su Qizhen was happy, but she pretended not to care and just smiled lightly.
About half an hour later, everyone came to the top of the sword pavilion. They lay on the top of the cliff and stuck out half of their heads to look down. The originally majestic Guancheng turned into a small dot. The terrain about 300 feet behind Guancheng suddenly opened up, and the ground camps were opened.
Lin Li, judging from the size, was stationed with an army of 30,000 people. Yunfeng couldn't help but secretly call it a fluke. It was simple. There was a camp blocking the way. It was just a joke to attack Jiange with surprise troops.
Yunfeng looked at Su Qizhen who was lying next to him with gratitude, but found that this woman was looking intently at the bottom of the cliff, her brows furrowed slightly, as if she was calculating something. Suddenly, her heart moved, and she looked around, taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention.
She reached out and scratched Su Qizhen's armpit gently.
Su Qizhen trembled all over, and quickly turned her head to look, just in time to meet Yun Feng's malicious gaze. In an instant, a blush flew over her pretty face, and she threw an angry and annoyed look...
