Baidaoguan is only an hour away from Shengle City. In the afternoon, Zhao Junsheng arrived at Baidaoguan with his troops to join Lanyun.

The guards and generals who closed the Baidao Pass were all on alert. Although the place was dangerous, the army soldiers on the mountain road with no end in sight still made them feel guilty.

Zhao Junsheng rode a horse and stood at the front of the team. Looking at the Baidao Pass, he couldn't help sighing: "It's really shooting yourself in the foot. At the beginning, this Baidao Pass was built by Cao Jiao alone. This Baidao Pass In order to defend against the Rouran people in the north, a large number of fortifications were built on the city wall facing the north!"

"We didn't plan to build too many fortifications on the southern city wall. The situation at the time made us have to build a lot of fortifications on the southern city wall, but now we have caused trouble for ourselves!"

The generals and officials were speechless for a while after hearing that Zhao Junsheng, they built this pass so dangerously and strong that they still hurt themselves in the end!

Zhao Junsheng asked Gao Jinzhi, "General Gao, how will we fight this battle?"

Gao Jinzhi looked at it, and frowned: "My lord, this battle is not easy to fight. The mountain road is rugged, and the front of the wall is too narrow. No amount of troops can be used. At most, one tooth can only be raised at a time." No matter how many troops there are, they are just delivering food to the defenders, how can such a small number of troops attack the tower?"

Zhao Junsheng said to Gao Jinzhi: "This battle is still up to you. Try to find a way to reduce casualties and break through this barrier as soon as possible!"

Gao Jinzhi clasped his fists and promised, "I will do my best!"

For the next few days, Gao Jinzhi organized several sieges every day, aiming to find a rhythm of siege that could put as many troops as possible into the siege, but failed every time, tens of thousands of troops were blocked here I was helpless on the narrow and long mountain road in front of Baidao Pass.

Chapter 700 Using Fire Oil Bombs

The big tent was full of generals and officials, the oil lamps in the corner were flickering, and the sounds of insects in the wild were covered by the noise in the barracks.

Zhao Junsheng was sitting on the horse, with his right hand on the desk and knocking non-stop, and asked slowly, "How many casualties have been caused by the siege in the past few days?"

Gao Jinyi walked out with a face of shame and cupped his fists and replied, "260 people were killed and 56 people were injured!"

Zhao Junsheng was silent for a while when he heard the words, the hand that knocked on the desk stopped, and said firmly, "Our army has been blocked here for five days, and we can't drag it on any longer. We must fight down to Baidao Pass tomorrow!"

At Mao's next day, when most of the soldiers were still fast asleep, the three hundred selected warriors had already gathered, and they did morning exercises for half an hour under the leadership of Vanguard General Lan Yun.

After the morning exercises, the day was already full, and the cooks also prepared food for them at this time. Under the leadership of Lan Yun, the soldiers began to take the bowls and chopsticks to the kitchen to receive meals. There were more than 100 soldiers from the siege battalion eating with them. Soldiers.

After the full meal, they had half an hour to rest. Everyone sat in groups on the grass in the camp and chatted with each other. No matter how indifferent to life and death, when facing a real battle, fear and fear are inevitable. This is human instinct, so these soldiers can't smile.

Lan Yun walked over and saw that the atmosphere among the soldiers was a bit dull. It seemed that this battle was a doomsday situation for them. He smiled and said, "What's the matter? It's like dead parents? Let me tell you, This battle is not so dangerous, and it is easier and simpler than the fight a few days ago. You will know when the fight starts later! Well, cheer me up, and I will take you to attack the city later. If you want to die, I will die first, and if I am with you, you are still afraid of a bird!"

Lan Yun's words gave the three hundred soldiers some vitality, and they all relaxed a lot.

A soldier ran over and reported, "General, the king ordered the attack to begin in half an hour!"

"Understood!" Lan Yun nodded, turned around and raised his hand to the three hundred generals, "You heard me, everyone, get up and check your weapons, armor, bows and arrows, line up and prepare to go!"

Within 3 minutes, the lineup was completed, and some people's helmets were crooked, and Lan Yun stepped forward to straighten them one by one.

"set off!"

Lan Yun set off first with three hundred siege soldiers, and then more than 100 soldiers from the siege camp drove a carriage and pulled a cart of parts of siege equipment out of the camp and followed behind these soldiers.

Soon, three hundred soldiers and the soldiers of the siege battalion arrived in front of Baidaoguan in a carriage. Zhao Junsheng had already arrived here with a large number of generals, officials and soldiers.

Lan Yun rearranged the team and came to Zhao Junsheng to report, "Your Majesty, the three hundred warriors are ready and ready to attack the city at any time!"

Zhao Junsheng waved his hand, "Don't worry, you go to the front of the pass and shout out to make the defenders surrender. Gu can let the past go, if they continue to resist, Gu's anger is absolutely unbearable for them!"

"Obey!" Lan Yun clasped his fists and agreed.

He immediately ran forward to a place within a stone's throw of the pass city, raised his head and shouted to the tower, "Listen up, guards of Baidaoguan, my king has an order to surrender you immediately, but let the past go, otherwise you will have nothing to do but wait for you!" It is destruction!"

Arrogant and exaggerated laughter came from the city tower, "Hahaha... You and I have been attacking for five days and failed to climb the city wall, but now we have the cheek to ask us to surrender, and even threaten us with bold words, you and others Don't you feel ashamed?"

Lan Yun held back his anger and said loudly, "Now that the Rouran people are attacking Wuchuan, you are not only assisting the Rouran people to attack Wuchuan, but also blocking our army from going to the rescue. What's the reason? The quarrel between brothers, coming to Daqian but attracting foreign enemies, isn't he afraid of attracting wolves into the house, and once the wolves succeed, they will occupy the territory and never leave? In this way, you are the accomplices who help the evil! Have you ever thought that once the wolves However, if someone enters the Central Plains, your relatives will inevitably be affected, and by then it will be too late to regret!"

There was silence on the tower for a while, and Lan Yun and the generals thought that the guards on the tower might have been persuaded and were thinking of taking effect. There are so many tricks, this general almost fell into your way! What kind of brotherly dispute, what lures wolves into the house? When did my Great Wei and Qian Guo become brothers? You also think highly of yourself, and you can’t make this general surrender even if you talk about it , if you have the ability, see the real chapter!"

"Okay, okay, the chance to survive has been given to you, you don't want it, don't blame me for being cruel later. Since you intend to die for the great thousand and the decadent Northern Wei Dynasty, this general will help you!"

After finishing speaking, Lan Yun turned around and reported to Zhao Junsheng, "My lord, the gate guards will be stubborn and incompetent in the end, and they will not be able to persuade them!"

"Let's attack the city!" Zhao Junsheng said, waving his hands, "Let the siege battalion set up trebuchets and use kerosene bombs!"

The particularity of the kerosene bomb is that the kerosene is mixed with flammable firelighters. Once it is thrown out and smashed, it is easy to catch fire and burn. Its power has been fully proved in the battle against the Southern Dynasties.

The six trebuchets were set up on the mountain road by the soldiers of the siege battalion, and they were divided into three rows, two in each row.

"General Lan, the trebuchet is ready, do you want to launch it?"

After hearing the report from the soldiers of the siege battalion, Lan Yun immediately said, "Launch!"

With one order, the six trebuchets threw out dozens of kerosene bombs at the same time. These kerosene bombs were burning in the sky and quickly smashed towards Baidaoguan City, dragging long black smoke tails in the sky. There was only whistling in the sky.

"Boom, bang, bang..." One after another, the kerosene bombs made a dull sound after smashing on the walls, on the towers, and inside the pass. What surprised the defenders was that these kerosene bombs were in After being smashed, it started to be ignited by the flames and burned.

"No, put out the fire, put out the fire!" the guard shouted in shock.

There was no water in front of the pass, so the defenders could only use their feet to step on and use their weapons to put out the fire. However, many soldiers started to burn after their feet were stained with kerosene. people.

Many places in Guancheng and Guancheng were set on fire, and the empty city head was also ignited. After many of the guards were engulfed by the fire, they could no longer stand on the city wall and had to retreat from the city wall. , but they were besieged by the fire in Guancheng.

All the barracks, kitchens, stables, firewood houses and other houses in the Guancheng were burned, and the entire Guancheng was burned into a sea of ​​flames. Standing at the burning place, but the high temperature around them made them unbearable, a large amount of oxygen in the air was consumed, and the defenders suffocated to death one by one, and some were scorched.

The fire burned for more than an hour, and when the flames subsided, the blue cloud sounded below zero, and a dozen soldiers raised battering rams and rammed towards the burned city gate.

With a sound of "bump", the city gate, which had already been burnt to dilapidated condition, was hit by a battering ram and a big hole was knocked out. After several hits in succession, the city gate was completely dilapidated, and the soldiers dragged the wreckage and threw it away. Out of the city gate.

Now the fire is still burning on the city wall. Although the fire has been reduced, it is still impossible to climb up, and can only enter through the city gate.

The demolition of the city gate was not finished yet, and there were still a lot of stones blocking the opening of the city gate. It was no wonder that the city gate, which had been hit for five days, was still motionless. It turned out that it had been blocked by a large number of stones long ago.

Lan Yun shouted to the soldiers to move the stones out of the city gate. As the saying goes, there are many people and strength, and the stones in the tightly packed city gate were quickly removed one by one by the soldiers.

The stone in the city gate was finally emptied, Lan Yun drew out his saber and pointed at the city, shouting loudly, "Brothers, come for me!"

"Kill--" The dry army generals with wet blankets on their heads and face towels covering their mouths and noses rushed into the city gate with swords and soldiers.

The expected battle did not happen, because more than half of the defenders in Baidaoguan had already died, and those who were still alive were dying.

The generals who rushed in with weapons saw groups of defenders crowding in the open space near the corner. When they walked in, they found that these people had been scorched, and some were curled up on the ground with their throats bruised. I scratched it myself, these people were obviously suffocated to death, and only the suffocated people demolished it like this.

There are still some who are dying, but these people have blisters all over their bodies, and they can't survive.

"You guys look at these people, and the others split up to search every corner, you guys follow me!"

Following Lan Yun's assignment, the generals acted in separate units. Some defenders who were hiding were searched out one by one and put under surveillance. Lan Yun led a few soldiers to avoid the still burning flames and walked all the way to the north city wall. At the city gate, it was found that the city gate was open, everything around was burned, and there were charred corpses everywhere on the ground, but it was obvious that someone had escaped.

"Come on, hurry up and send a team of cavalry over!"
