Chapter 1294 : Chapter Five Hundred and Twenty-Two: Sun Ce's Situation is Critical (2)
The snow became heavier and heavier, and the army was immediately trapped in the mountains.
In fact, the heavy snow in the south is far less than the heavy snow in the north. At this time, heavy snow covers the mountain in the eyes of the soldiers in the north, but it is knee-deep. Moreover, these snows are not entirely God's masterpiece, but some snow on the top of the mountain.
It was blocked and blown down. This was a mountain road, with the lowest terrain. The snow on the mountains on the front was piled up here. Naturally, they felt that the heavy snow was very severe, as if it was pouring.
Sun Ce drove his soldiers quickly. When he arrived at a slightly empty place, he immediately ordered the soldiers to camp and light the fire.
But the soldiers from the south could not withstand the coldness. Some of them had already taken off their iron armor. The cold iron armor was pressed against their bodies. Although there were still several layers of clothes to block them, the heart-wrenching cold seemed to be the coldness of the heart.
It was so cold that it couldn't be beaten anymore. It was rare to be beaten, as if it was about to burst out of the mouth.
The soldiers could no longer move when the fire was roasting, but just looked at the flames and sat around the fire, and then they felt a hint of warmth.[
Although Zhou Yu, Zhang Zhao and others were worried, they saw that the soldiers could not walk anymore, so they had to look forward to the heavy snow stopping soon and the sun coming out soon.
Because everyone was a soldier from the south, they were thin and there were not many thick clothes in the army. Even though the soldiers were roasting on a bonfire, they still felt cold. Some veterans took out the hidden wine gourds, and when it was cold, the wine was drunk.
It can be thawed. Although the generals saw the soldiers drinking, they didn't care. They even brought out the wine from the military to help the soldiers and thaw them.
Helplessly, the house was leaking and raining all night! The heavy snow fell sparsely for a night and it never stopped. Although it was much smaller afterwards (the wind stopped, and there was no wind blowing the snow on the top of the mountain), the heavy snow never stopped.
.On the second day, it was already snowing, the wind was blowing, and the snow became much heavier.
Zhou Yu immediately suggested that the army must start now and not continue to expect it. Other soldiers would rather hold on for another day and expect the heavy snow to melt.
Sun Ce was also hesitant and checked around the military camp. Many soldiers surrounded the camp. Even so, their hands and feet were still frozen and sores, and many soldiers could not even get up. At this time,
The officers and soldiers of the Logistics Department reported: "There is insufficient firewood."
Sun Ce ordered the soldiers to go up the mountain to cut down, but was told that all the firewood that was conveniently collected on the mountain had been collected. Some soldiers had been sent to the mountain to collect, and several people fell from the mountain. Moreover, the firewood collected was already wet.
When the fire broke out, it was full of smoke. Sun Ce was shocked when he heard this, looking up at the sky and sighed in his heart, could it be that God would not let me succeed?
On the third day, heavy snow was still blocking the mountain, and the situation became increasingly dangerous. Sun Ce counted the troops and found that the frostbite soldiers had reached 70% and now only 30% of the soldiers remained in full force. He immediately ordered the 20,000 people to clear the heavy snow in front of him.
The army must have walked out of these mountains. I don’t know when the mountains will stop, and even if the heavy snow stops, it will take some time to make the snow melt. At dawn, 20,000 people worked hard all night and finally opened a road, but
