A winter snow came unexpectedly, covering the earth with a thick layer of white.
Among Da Cang's officers and soldiers, the generals were overjoyed to see the sudden heavy snowfall. With this heavy snowfall, the river surface of Liangshan Water Park will be completely frozen.
"Hahaha, what a snow, what a snow, this snow comes at the right time!" After sending someone to check the freezing level of the river, the fourth prince Huangfu Mingfeng couldn't help laughing.
He has encountered a series of troubles recently, and the snow finally made him feel better.
"By the way, gather another batch of cotton-padded clothes and quilts from the surrounding counties!" The fourth prince Huangfu Mingfeng did not forget to give his instructions to his men.
They are fighting in winter, so they will naturally have all the necessary materials ready when they set off. However, after this snowfall, I am afraid there will be another major cooling down, so it is not a bad thing to make more preparations and be prepared!<
/p>
Anyway, it is very convenient to mobilize a batch of supplies from various surrounding counties.
"General, I heard that there are several taverns around Shuibo Liangshan, which are the spies of Shuibo Liangshan. Do you want your brothers to send people to remove these taverns first?" An officer who looked like a general said.
Including Hong Tiandu and Zheng Shouchang who had died in the battle, this time Yannan Dao dispatched a total of five generals to help the fourth prince, and all kinds of supplies were fully supplied. This superficial work was sufficient.
Yes, no one can find a problem!
And this general is one of the five generals, Xu Beimiao, who is also a heaven-level general. However, he is not outstanding among the heaven-level generals, and his basic force is only 101. This is
One of the three heaven-level generals in a team.
Xu Beimiao, Wang Yu didn't like this person. He seemed a little too arrogant towards his subordinates and other generals around him, but he behaved like a good boy towards the fourth prince Huangfu Mingfeng, Wang Yu, Zhao Kuangwei and others.
.
The only saving grace is that he is relatively young now, but at just 20 years old, he may be able to make further progress.
Because of Hong Tiandu's injury, this man started to show his head.
"Okay, then I'll leave this matter to General Xu!" Huangfu Mingfeng waved his hand casually and said.
However, when Xu Beimiao brought people to the four hotels, they were already empty. In anger, Xu Beimiao simply lit several fires and burned them down, killing them all.
After hearing that Xu Beimiao had not gained anything, the fourth prince did not blame him, but asked him to go down and prepare to attack Liangshan.
In other words, the fourth prince did not expect Xu Beimiao to gain anything. As long as those people in Liangshan were not fools, the people in those hotels would have already evacuated.
I sent him there just to try my luck!
………………
On this day, the wind direction was directed towards Liangshan Dazhai.
The fourth prince, Huangfu, who had been impatient for a long time, came to see him, dressed appropriately, and then ordered people to beat drums and gather troops.
After beating three tong drums in succession, all fifteen thousand foot soldiers and cavalrymen arrived.
Kill pigs and sheep, bury the pots to make rice, have a hearty meal, organize the army in an orderly manner with 15,000 horsemen and horses, and prepare all the utensils and grains that should be used to attack the city and seize the stronghold.
The soldiers crossed the frozen river in batches. Less than half an hour into the march, the golden beach of Shuibo Liangshan came out of sight of the army.
Looking further into the distance, there are cliffs on both sides of the forest, with mountains of cobblestones, desolate trees stained with snowflakes like rain, and behind them are cliffs that are difficult for monkeys to climb, with only a wide road in the middle.
The road up the mountain.
"Keep moving forward. It seems that these bandits want to wait for us in front!" Wang Yu took a look at the surrounding environment, then pointed to a distant pass ahead, and then said slowly. p>
These thieves and bandits are not as good as the official army in terms of military strength and combat power. Although they have been victorious in the ambush for a while, they still cannot erase the gap in hard power between the two sides, especially the three thousand in the hands of the fourth prince.
The elite forbidden army has not yet taken action.
Therefore, these bandits may not easily go into battle for a long time, but will rely on the steep terrain for defense.
Everyone looked in the direction pointed by Wang Yu and saw several rows of soldiers standing vaguely on the pass, with stone-rolling wood, hard crossbows and strong bows, and even a few bed crossbows scattered on the wall.
It is also filled with dense spear thorns.
Looking at the pass far ahead, the generals, big and small, all felt a headache, and then some of them were beaten!
This pass was built according to the terrain, with cliffs on both sides, and the pass lay across the center like a sleeping giant. Moreover, the width of the entire pass was only less than thirty meters.
The narrower the width of the pass, which means that the fewer troops they can invest at one time, the more difficult it will be for them to successfully attack!
The generals, big and small, couldn't help but look at the commander-in-chief, the fourth prince Huangfu Mingfeng, waiting for him to come up with an idea.
Although they had heard that Liangshan's terrain was steep before, they never expected it to be so steep.
Although the rivers froze in winter, they easily crossed the danger of the three thousand miles of water, but when they really walked over, they found that this was just the beginning. There were no natural dangers behind the water.
No less dangerous than the three thousand miles of water.
Different from the worries of other generals, Wang Yu couldn't help but nodded secretly in his heart when he looked at the surrounding terrain.
This place is really a treasure. If Chang Yuchun is allowed to arm a troop of troops here, the natural danger of Liangshan will be enough to survive the imperial court's encirclement and suppression.
When Wang Yu marches into Yannan Road one day in the future, Chang Yuchun will lead the Liangshan troops to bloom in the center of Yannan Road. Cooperating with him to attack from inside and outside, the already weak Yannan Road can win a battle! p>
"I wonder which general can break through this bandit pass?" the fourth prince Huangfu Mingfeng asked with a headache on his face, and the good mood just now disappeared without a trace.
"You can continuously bombard the city with siege equipment!" Xu Beimiao was the first to interrupt.
"The walls are all made of bluestone!" Wang Yu pointed to the location of the wall and reminded them helplessly.
No matter how sharp your catapults, crossbows and other siege equipment are, if this is a city wall made of stone, can you still break it?
"How about this? I'll attack head-on while searching for other paths along the mountains!" Sima Qingrou said.
Judging from the current situation, a frontal attack may not be a good idea, so we can only try to find another way.
In fact, Sima Qingrou's suggestion is not a good idea. It requires luck. However, in the face of such favorable geographical conditions, it is really difficult to come up with any effective method!
