Father is on top, I was wrong

Bihan Valley is a lone peak as high as a cloud, and the cliffs on both sides are as sharp and steep as if they were dug out.

In terms of climate in southern Xinjiang, even in winter, the mountains are often covered with greenery.Only the peak of Pihangu stands bare, without a blade of grass growing.

There is a huge difference in temperature between the peak and the flatlands. It is often ridiculous to see people on the mountain wearing short shirts while those on the mountain are wrapped in cotton coats.

Xiao Gui stepped on the rubble on the ground, climbed the sloping and steep mountain wall, and looked eastward intently.

Below the mountain wall is a misty, bottomless valley bottom, which is daunting.

The sergeants below all watched tremblingly, the rocks were broken and slippery, for fear that he would fall to pieces if he was not careful.

Fortunately, Xiao Gui only watched for a while, then slid down from the mountain wall.

His face was calm, and he couldn't see the irritability of waiting here for more than ten days, so calm that everyone couldn't guess what he was thinking in his heart.

Li Ling handed him a jug of water, and he took a sip and asked, "Is there any news from Longyang Mountain?"

"No." Li Ling shook his head and said, the sun on the top of Bihangu Peak was a bit dazzling, he squinted his eyes slightly and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, General Gao is guarding over there, and we will be notified if there is any news."

Xiao Gui nodded, pressed the longbow in his hand, and stopped talking.

According to the strategy discussed by everyone in the main hall, the water source was cut off at Longyang Mountain, and camps were set up outside Nanjiang City to create the illusion that reinforcements had arrived, and induce the army to plunder the camp from Bihan Valley.

But at present, the water source of Longyang Mountain has been cut off, why did they take so long to act?

Xiao Gui led five thousand soldiers and horses to squat above Bihan Valley for more than ten days. The night here is extremely cold, but everyone can't light a fire to keep warm in order not to expose their whereabouts.

I often wake up overnight, and the armor is covered with a layer of frost, which is so cold that people lose consciousness.Everyone is afraid that as the cold winter advances, in the twelfth lunar month, when the world is colder, will they freeze to death here.

The long wait gradually weakened the morale of the army, and the bone-chilling cold at night made people collapse even more.

But no one dared to say anything, because the emperor could hold his breath and not say a word.He was like the sea god needle in this army, stuck there, without saying a word, but made everyone feel at ease.

The emperor can spare it, what else can they say.

Before, everyone only heard that Xiao Gui was a dandy who ignored government affairs, and they secretly doubted his ability to command the army, but now seeing him eating and sleeping with the army, not complaining, not even a little anxious and calm, they couldn't help but quietly change.

At noon, everyone took a few mouthfuls of dry food and swallowed it with cold water, silently.

Suddenly, Li Ling called out, "Your Majesty! There is smoke!"

Everyone's complexion changed, and they all stopped their actions.

I saw Longyang Mountain in the distance, between the two peaks, a wisp of solitary smoke gradually rose, rising higher and higher.

"Your Majesty, they didn't come to Pihan Valley?"

"Is this a direct attack on Longyang Mountain?"

Li Ling's face also changed, "Your Majesty, it must be because they dare not come from Bihan Valley, because they were afraid of being ambushed by us, so they went from Longyang Mountain. If they capture Longyang Mountain and the water source is unblocked, then they will have nothing to worry about." It will be a great disadvantage to us!"

Xiao Gui watched it intently for a while, then calmly said: "They won't take Longyang Mountain."

"what?"

"But the smoke of General Gao's war has been ignited, which proves that their army must be overwhelmed."

"Yeah, we can't stay here now, we are going to rescue!"

Xiao Gui ignored these noisy voices, and only said to Li Ling: "You take my warrant, go to the camp to get five thousand cavalry, and rush to Longyang Mountain to rescue. Remember, as long as you rescue Gao Shenxian, don't love to fight. The flag of Zhen was erected behind the mountain, causing some smoke and dust to make people think that the army of the camp has passed. Do you understand?"

At the moment of crisis, Li Ling didn't have time to think about it, so he had to follow Xiao Gui's arrangement.

"The servant understands."

While thinking about it, Xiao Gui said, "I believe in the smoke from you. As long as we release the smoke from our side, it proves that someone has entered Bihan Valley. You and Gao Shenxian led the army over from Longyang Mountain Road and blocked their retreat."

Li Ling nodded solemnly, took the order, and went.

Xiao Gui exhaled, stood up with a cold face, walked to a slightly higher rock, and raised his voice condescendingly: "Soldiers, tonight, it's time for us to fight to the death!"

Everyone still doesn't know the situation. Didn't they say that Rong Di went to Longyang Mountain and wouldn't come over?Xiao Gui knew what they were thinking, so he calmly explained: "They haven't dared to enter Bihan Valley for the past ten days, because they are afraid that we will lay an ambush. But they are greedy for food and grass, so it is impossible not to come, otherwise they would have retreated a long time ago. They are definitely not going to attack Longyang Mountain. They are testing whether the army will rescue them. If the army goes to rescue, they will dare to enter Bihan Valley. On the contrary, these ten days have already been after they cut off the water. The limit is reached, and if one blow fails, they will definitely withdraw their troops."

"So." Xiao Gui paused and said: "Tonight, we must attack with all our strength and suffocate them in the Bihan Valley, so that they will never come back! After tonight, everyone will reward you for your merits, It’s not in vain to suffer for the past ten days.”

After some explanations, everyone's blood boiled with excitement, and the loose military spirit instantly condensed. Whether it was life or death, it was tonight.

Two hours later, Li Ling rushed to Longyang Mountain with five thousand cavalry. Thousands of soldiers led by Gao Shenxian were still struggling to support them. archery.

The gate of the city was knocked down several times, and blocked again and again. The gate of the city was fragmented and crumbling in the melee.

Li Ling only took a look at the hilltop not far away and understood that the emperor guessed right, the army had no intention of attacking the city at all, otherwise how could Gao Shenxian's thousands of soldiers have survived until now?

He waved his hand, and five thousand cavalry rushed out of the dense forest behind him. The horseshoes trampled on the dirt with the sound of hooves, and the dust flew up, and they galloped to the city gate in a short while.

As soon as the soldiers saw that the reinforcements had arrived, they immediately broke through and no longer wanted to fight.

"Withdraw! Quickly withdraw!"

Li Ling didn't allow them to retreat completely, and rode his horse to catch up with him.

At the same time, at the top of Bihan Valley, the crowd died down and fell under the mountain wall.

Xiao Gui poked out half of his head, and saw that the enemy army outside the valley had been slow to enter.

It wasn't until a soldier in the enemy's uniform rode his horse to report the news, chased to the front of the army, and said something to the man on the tall horse. The man thought for a moment, and then waved his hand slowly, "Come in!"

Echoes lingered in the empty valley, and the rough and decisive voice reached the peak.

A smile appeared in Xiao Gui's eyes, you finally rolled in and died.

The people behind also heard it, and they were all ready to move.

Xiao Gui turned his head, suppressed them with cold eyes, and observed calmly.

The entire Bihan Valley is more than 700 feet long, the road is narrow, and the marching speed is extremely slow, not to mention that they walked and looked around, and the speed was even slower.

It was icy cold on the top of Mingming Peak, but everyone felt that their bodies were sweating, and they dared not move or make a sound.

Xiao Gui watched the long team finally squeeze into Death Valley slowly, and patiently waited for the best opportunity, but suddenly heard the leading general in front suddenly shout, "Stop!"

His heart skipped a beat.

The mist was lingering and the distance was too far away. He couldn't see the man's expression and movements clearly. He could only see his blurred figure stopping in place. It was already more than half the distance in the valley.

A tit suddenly flew past Xiao Gui, fluttering its wings and flying away, and he suddenly realized a big problem.

The valley is so quiet that there are no birds.

This is too easy to make people suspicious, and obviously that man also thought of this.

Xiao Gui originally wanted to wait until the whole team had entered the bottom third of the valley before making a move, but now it was too late.

It's too late, it's too late.The man waved his hand, before he could speak, Xiao Gui suddenly stood up and shouted: "Kill!"

"kill!"

The sound of shouting and killing was deafening in the empty valley, and the formation at the foot of the mountain was instantly chaotic.

Rolling rocks fell across the sky from the cliffs on both sides, with the aura of landslides and landslides, hitting people head-on, howling and horse neighing mixed together.

After a while, the army that had just been purged was in chaos.

The leading general was supported by everyone, and roared heartbreakingly: "Get out of the valley! Get out! Get out!"

The rear army still had a chance to escape, but the front army was too late.

After the rocks passed, rockets flew from the sky, carrying the pungent smell of kerosene, rushing down like raindrops.

The fire oil tanks were handed up from behind one cylinder after another, and the people in front smashed down without changing their expressions. The whole Changgu instantly turned into a sea of ​​flames, like the red glow of the sky, winding hundreds of feet, like a heat wave of fireworks , Even the soldiers who climbed to the top of Bihan Valley could feel it.

Besides, the few rear troops who escaped from the valley protected the generals and fled in a hurry, but they were intercepted by Gao Shenxian and Li Ling.

The two groups of people bit together instantly.

It is said that the poor should not chase after them, and this is the case.

Gao Shenxian and Li Ling led nearly [-] elite soldiers, but they were killed before the opponent's remnant army was defeated.

The opposing enemy general was a tall and strong man. He swung a long knife with a curved back in his hand. His face was covered with blood, but his eyes were always like a wolf who refused to admit defeat. He killed Gao Shenxian and Li Ling Du was secretly startled.

Li Ling whispered to Gao Shenxian: "If this person is let go, it will be a disaster in the future, and he must be killed today."

Gao Shenxian thought so, and raised his voice: "Brothers, behead the thief! Get first-class merit! Don't let him go today!"

It's a pity that the opponent was ambushed and his companion died tragically. Now that he is red-eyed, it is not easy to win.

As soon as a few bold soldiers surrounded him, he chopped off the horse's legs and fell off the horse abruptly. Even some soldiers were decapitated by him in an instant, blood spattered everywhere, and their heads were in different places.

After several rounds, the soldiers behind all looked at each other in blank dismay, not daring to step forward.

Seeing that the man was about to break out of the encirclement with the remnant soldiers, Li Ling's heart was about to jump in his throat, and a group of cavalry roared towards him in the distance.

A silver-gray long spear came from the sky, and it was as good as facing the long-backed long knife. The two sides looked at each other and fell into a fierce battle in an instant.

"emperor!"

Li Ling felt that he was going to die, "Hurry up and protect the emperor! Escort him!"

Xiao Gui was not afraid at all, he went up against the opponent's long knife, his strength was great, the longer the weapon was, the more dominant he was, so that the opponent had no room to resist.

Unexpectedly, the other party pulled out his hand and grabbed his horse's rein, the horse staggered in fright, and threw Xiao Gui on the ground.

The other party swung a long knife and chopped it down. Li Ling was scared to death, and rushed over screaming.

Xiao Gui suddenly raised his leg to grab the long knife, then turned over and smashed the spear on the opponent's back, the opponent suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.

The cold tip of the gun pressed against his neck in the next moment.
