Chess Mountain

Looking inside from outside and from a distance, the mountains in front of you seem to be a barrier that is difficult to cross.

However, with Cao Dengke's confession, Ning army led by Tang Pidian found a path hidden in the mountains.

There was originally a canyon in the mountains, which could be seen in the distance.

However, the Cao family used manpower and continued transformation over such a long period of time, which had turned the canyon into a fortress.

They manually built a high slope similar to the entrance screen wall in front of the canyon, and piled up about ten feet in front of the canyon entrance.

Plant trees and pile up stones, making this high slope look natural.

From the front, the high slope just blocks the entrance of the canyon and is completely invisible.

However, on the left and right sides, there are channels, and they are only covered with a large number of vines.

The originally built fence gate was covered with wild grass and vines. If you don’t look carefully, you will not be able to find it at all.

About three miles inside the canyon entrance is the fortress guarded by Cao's private soldiers.

Canyon mouth.

Tang Pidian stopped and looked at the sketch drawn according to Cao Dengke's confession.

"Further forward is Chengguan. It is said that hundreds of private soldiers from the Cao family guarded the city. Although there are not many, it is extremely difficult to break through relying on the terrain and city defense."

Tang Pidian looked at his subordinates and asked with a chuckling, "Who is willing to fight the first round."

Young General Gao Zhen took a step forward: "I am willing to go there at the end."

Cheng Wujie also clasped his fists and said, "General, the last general is willing to go."

Gao Zhen said: "General, give me two thousand soldiers, one hour, and I will break through the fortress."

Cheng Wujie said: "General, give me a thousand soldiers, and I will break through the fortress in one hour."

Gao Zhen snorted: "General, give me a thousand soldiers, and I will break through this place in half an hour."

Cheng Wujie: "Just give me five hundred soldiers!"

Tang Pidian laughed: "Give you two five hundred soldiers each, and you go with you, whoever can take it down will be the first one."

Gao Zhen looked at Cheng Wujie and said, "Old brother, you should be careful, it's hard to walk on the mountain road."

Cheng Wujie said: "Little brother, don't get lost. My eyes are not very useful when I look at you."

Gao Zhen said, "Old brother, if you take it first, I will pour you wine."

Cheng Wujie said: "If you take it down first, I will take off your boots."

Two moments later, Cheng Wujie and Gao Zhen each led the five hundred Ning Army, one left and one right along the cliff walls on both sides of the canyon.

Tang Pidian stepped up the high slope at the entrance of the canyon, stood on the top, and looked forward with a cliffhanger.

The section of the canyon is not straight and twists and turns, so you can't see how the city gate three miles away is.

He sat down on the high slope, not seemingly worried that the two of them would not be able to take the fortress.

After a while, it took half an hour to calculate the time. Tang Pidian stood up and ordered.

"Enter."

The Ning army then poured into the canyon like a tide.

According to Cao Dengke's confession, the mountain in front of him is called Pingfeng Mountain and the facade of the mountains.

After that, there are the peaks, ups and downs, and they are repeated.

There is also a canyon in the ring peak, but it is not covered, but there is still a city pass.

Cao Dengke said that Qishan Castle can garrison 100,000 troops, easy to defend but difficult to attack.

It is easy to defend but difficult to attack Tang, but it is a joke.

If there are 10,000 or 20,000 people, it may be possible, and the food, grass and materials needed by the 100,000 army is so intensive.

Every once in a while, supplies must be transported to the mountains, and the possibility of being noticed is very high.

But if the team is controlled at about 10,000 or 20,000 people, the Qi Mountain is so big and there is a unique inside, so there is no big problem with self-sufficiency.

There are open spaces inside and outside the surrounding peaks to plant, which can be used for military farming.

In fact, after Ning Jun passed Pingfeng Mountain, he did see a large area of ​​crops.

Walking forward, Ning Jun in front sent someone back to report that the two generals had already broken through the fortress and were

The Cao family's private soldiers were hunting and fleeing all over the mountains.

Tang Pidian couldn't help but smile. Those two guys were born tiger generals.

One hour later, under the peak.

The canyon in front of you is much wider than the one you just scored in, and the queue can launch an attack.

But relatively speaking, this city pass in Huanfeng Canyon is taller and stronger, and it is even equipped with a city defense crossbow.

At the same time, within the Huan Peak, the main peak of Qishan Mountain.

On the huge castle, Cao Ziluo, the father of Shanheyin Sect, stood on the platform like the sky, looking at the Huanfeng Canyon with a thousand miles of eyes.

"Sect Master, Ning Jun suddenly attacked!"

Someone hurriedly ran in.

Cao Ziluo nodded: "Can you find out how many troops have arrived in Ning Jun?"

The man replied: "There is a report from Huanfengcheng Pass that, inferred from the size of the Ning army's flag team, there are about 10,000 people."

"Ten thousand people?"

Cao Ziluo seemed to be surprised, and then couldn't help but sneer.

"Although I don't know why it was exposed, maybe my son had an accident in Yuzhou, but it surprised me that Tang Pidian was so arrogant."

"Either, it's Tang Pidian who doesn't know that I have 24,000 troops in this Qi Mountain, or he thinks he's invincible in the world."

Cao Ziluo said to herself: "This young man, after winning some battles, he started to wonder if the sky is high and the earth is thick."

A subordinate next to him said, "Master, no matter how good Ning Jun is in battle, there are only 10,000 people. If we are still siege, we have 24,000 strong soldiers. Whether it is weapons, equipment or training and cooperation, we are not inferior to Ning Jun. Just let him fight."

Cao Ziluo pondered for a moment and said, "It wouldn't be a good thing if he just blocked him like this."

He thought and said, "If he can't conquer it for a long time, he will understand that relying on his ten thousand people is of no use, so he will send people back and continue to mobilize the army."

The subordinates reacted: "So, we should take advantage of the fact that Ning Army has few soldiers at this time, defeat them with superior forces in one fell swoop, and then evacuate them."

Cao Ziluo nodded: "Li Chi wanted to easily beat me in Yuzhou, and he was also a little naive."

He smiled proudly: "In my hands, the power of the mountain and river seal has grown stronger with the help of the chaos in the world. If we deal with the ten thousand Ning troops and defend them to the death, we will also seem to be afraid of him."

In the mountains and rivers, he expanded his army, trained generals, and made this Qishan a foundation.

At this time, if he hadn't been worried that Tang Pidd would mobilize reinforcements to come over for a long time, he wouldn't want to leave.

But he was a decisive person who knew that the time would pass by.

If he really defended himself, Ning Jun mobilized more and more teams to block the way out of the mountain. Even if there are food and supplies reserves here, he can't get out. What's the use?

Over time, if Tang Pidian finds that it is indeed difficult to attack here.

It is only necessary to dispatch three or five thousand people to guard the canyon that comes out of the mountain, strengthen the fortifications, and use the city gate as a defense, it is difficult for the Cao family's private soldiers to fight out.

So Cao Ziluo pondered for a moment and ordered to break out.

Under his hands, there are sixteen shocking talents.

These sixteen people were either taught by him or discovered by him personally.

These sixteen shocking talents are four without four without four, four without four complete.

Among them, there are four non-four things, and they are scattered in various places, in charge of the forces of the mountains and river seals in various places, and to ensure the operation of the mountains and river seals.

And four missing and four complete are the generals among Cao's private soldiers.

Cao Ziluo pointed to the other side of the Ring Peak Canyon: "The order is missing and you are ready, and you will fight out in a while."

"yes!"

His subordinates immediately responded.

In the castle, the horn sounded.

Teams of Cao's private soldiers, armed with neat armor, began to support Huanfeng Canyon, and went out from each gate, like several long dragons.

The weapons, equipment, personnel configuration, and training cooperation of Cao's private soldiers are strictly composed of the soldiers of the Great Chu Palace.

And naturally, the contribution of Prince Wu Yang Jiju is indispensable.

There are two of the four missing persons responsible for training Cao Ziluo, who were originally from Zuo Wuwei.
