Chapter 222 The Sad Wind of Shennongjia

"Look at the clothes you're washing. There's mud underneath the leaves."

Gao Pei turned over his armor and was very dissatisfied with Pang Tong. Pang Tong snorted a few times and said, "That's you, General Gao. Go out and ask who I, Pang Tong, have washed clothes for since I was a child? I, Pang Tong, do big things.

A person who can soak your clothes in it and pick it up again is already a blessing that you have cultivated over several lifetimes."

Pang Tong himself was also surprised. He originally came to the Sichuan Army as a soldier and an undercover agent because of the dispatch of Pang Degong. He mainly wanted to see Gao Pei, a rough and rough man, who was easy to fool. But after getting along for a long time, Pang Tong found that it was not bad to get along with such a person, at least.

It's much easier to get along with than those from aristocratic families who claim to be noble and hypocritical.

As time goes by, I feel ashamed of what I do, but I still do it, wash clothes, and stand guard.

Fenghuang washed clothes and stood guard. This was unimaginable to Pang Tong before and was simply a huge insult. But now that he has done this, apart from verbal complaints, he doesn't seem to have much resistance in his heart.

"You...how can you sweep the world if you don't sweep one house?" Gao Pei angrily returned Pang Tong's own words to him.

"People have their strengths and things have their shortcomings. Who said that those who sweep the world must sweep the house? It's strange that the person who sweeps the house every day can sweep the world." Pang Tong immediately pushed back.

"Then tell me, why did the Lord ask us to prepare for hunting today?" Gao Pei asked. Now the whole army did not understand. The envoy was humiliated and the city was not yet conquered, but Liu Zhang ordered one-third of the army to leave the camp.

Are they hunting to scare the Jingzhou soldiers to death? Gao Pei was surprised.

"I'm also thinking about this issue. The emperor's actions are really confusing." Pang Tong frowned.

"You can't figure it out. Why don't you just say you don't know? You also said that you can sweep the world and wash clothes and cook every day."

…………

The Sichuan Army assembled an army of 40,000 people, crossed the Han River and the Xiangjiang River, and went up the Han River under the eyes of the defenders of the ancient Xiangyang City. They set up a large camp in the northwest of ancient Xiangyang, only five miles away from the ancient Xiangyang City.

Xu Shu hurried to Xicheng with the Jingzhou generals. Looking at the Sichuan Army camp in the distance, Li Yan said to Xu Shu: "Sir, what are the Sichuan Army doing? Is the Sichuan Army going to change the direction of attack?"

Xu Shu slowly shook his head. The weakest side of ancient Xiangyang's defense was in the south, but it was blocked by the mountains of Jingshan and Jingshan. The Sichuan army did not attack at the right time, and now it is too late. The city defenses on the east, west, and north sides were all reinforced after the city was moved.

Xu Shu did not allow any defensive loopholes to be left. Even if the Sichuan army shifted its attack direction, it would not help.

"They should be guarding the newly built dam of the Han River." Xu Shu said. But he frowned and looked at the flag of the Sichuan Army. Xu Shu could probably figure out the number of the Sichuan Army. If the scout report was true, then the other three camps of the Sichuan Army would be

We can only defend and can no longer attack the city.

The Sichuan Army placed all its bets on the flood. Is it really so advantageous for the Jingzhou Army?

"I think the Sichuan army must be hunting wild game to eat. I said to the military advisor, the Sichuan army has not established a stable camp and has plans for us. We might as well take the opportunity to attack at night." It was rare that the sun was shining today. Zhang De was in a good mood and took a handful.

Sword, he wrapped a chicken drumstick in a paper bag and ate it. While chewing it, he made suggestions to Xu Shu.

"Second order, no one is allowed to leave the city to engage in battle without authorization. Anyone who disobeys the order will be killed."

Xu Shu did not dare to act rashly until he had figured out the true intention of the Sichuan army. After saying that, he walked straight down the city wall, followed by all the civil and military officers. Zhang De, who was eating a chicken drumstick, froze in place alone and shook the drumstick out. Rub.

The slate was stained with oil, and he let out a sigh.

The Sichuan Army camp was full of soldiers and horses. Under the command of Zhang Ren, the generals were divided into ten groups and entered Jingshan. They ambushed on the hidden jungle hillside and outside the canyon exit, and were surrounded by 20,000 horses and horses. It was a spectacle both ancient and modern.

Jingshan Jingshan is the remnant of the wild Daba Mountain and is the southeastern end of the mysterious Shennongjia. As early as a few days ago, Liu Zhang and Huang Yueying saw groups of migrating animals in Wollongong.

The Three Gorges boatmen's chants and Shennong's call to the Yanjiao Mountain are all a wonder in Ba'ao. The Moonstone and Shennong's Peak, with the momentum of a giant leaping dragon, and the winding and towering dragon's spine, create the strangeness and mystery of Shennongjia.

And such a place, in ancient times two thousand years ago, was full of vitality. Pure white snakes swam under meters of green grass, white bears hid in caves behind bushes, savages appeared, South China tigers plundered, and such a place

The place is naturally a good place for hunting, especially during the change of seasons.

With the change of seasons from spring to summer, the life of all things reaches its peak. After the spring, the appetite of tigers, wild leopards and wolves begins to increase. The tiger cubs and wolf cubs have also grown up, and their mothers begin to take them out to hunt.

Natural selection, in the battle for survival for tens of thousands of years, herbivores discovered the pattern of natural enemies. Whenever the seasons change, they begin large-scale migrations and begin one of their important activities, fetching water.

After the seasonal rains, the rivers finally released the dead air of winter and began to run. Many animals choose this time to come out to drink water, not only to escape the beasts in the mountains, but also to allow their children to grow up smoothly. Of course, they still have to enter the mountains later.

It seems that drinking water from the river is not necessary for these animals, but it has become a habit, just like humans hold sacrifices every Three Yuan Festival.

Gao Pei was hiding in the dense green grass. The burrs and buzzing insects on the grass were disturbing. Fa Zheng had ordered soldiers to observe for several days and knew the paths where those animals often appeared. The Sichuan army was five miles away from those mountain passes.

There was an ambush about a hundred meters away, and no one was strictly allowed to make a sound, especially bows and arrows, which were never allowed to be stringed.

This is an uninhabited area. The Han River flows five miles away in front. The environment is very quiet. It is a good drinking place for the animals. The Sichuan army laid an ambush before the sun rose. The scorching sun burned the earth and the stones were covered with water.

It was so hot in the sun that even the grass looked dying.

Antelopes, goats, wild deer, and musk deer came in groups, some three to five, some a dozen, and even dozens, in front of the Sichuan soldiers, walking towards the Han River and drinking water in different sections according to their species.

, maybe the animals are a little strange today, why the river is shallower than before. At this time of year, shouldn't the river be running fast?

But these animals don't think too much, maybe they just think they are unlucky. After lying down by the river to drink water, they lie down by the river to bask in the sun and rest, and neigh from time to time. If they are thirsty, they go to the river again, and they

serene.

"Why do you think my lord is so serious?" Gao Pei complained to Pang Tong, but he didn't understand. He sent out 20,000 troops to hunt, and the siege was abandoned. Could it be that he wanted to hunt prey for food? These animals alone are enough for 100,000 people.

How long does it take for an army to eat? Is hunting enough for half a meal in one day?

Moreover, hunting like this made Gao Pei feel more strenuous than fighting. He lay here motionless for a day and was roasted by the sun. Some inexperienced and careless people found a position under direct sunlight, and they all showed signs of heatstroke. It was simply worse than

The whipping was still painful.

Gao Pei is such an unlucky guy.

Pang Tong was lying between two rocks. Gao Pei had laughed at him in the morning. The rocks were filled with fine ash and there were countless ant nests. At this time, he saw that Pang Tong didn't even sweat a drop. He was extremely envious. When he heard Gao Pei

When Pei spoke, Pang Tong hissed, and Gao Pei almost died of anger.

In fact, Pang Tong had been wondering what Liu Zhang was going to do.

Of course Pang Tong knew that Liu Zhang would not send 20,000 people out to hunt, let alone eat the prey. Even if it is the best hunting season (autumn hunting, which is waiting for the spring animal cubs to grow up), the prey would not be

It might be possible to feed an army of 100,000 people.

Liu Zhang must have had his own intentions in doing this, but Pang Tong couldn't guess it. This made Pang Tong feel defeated and even panicked. There were things in the world that he couldn't figure out.

"I hope Liu Zhang's efforts were in vain." Pang Tong could only think this way.

As the sun set, the animals basked in the sun all day, trampled the grass by the river, and turned the soil over with their paws. Finally, they began to return one after another. At this time, on the top of a mountain, a large

The red flag goes up.

"The Lord has given the order to encircle us."

Gao Pei gave the order and jumped up suddenly. After holding it in for a day, he was finally free. Sichuan soldiers emerged from hiding places one by one.

Instantly, looking from a high altitude, among the Jingshan mountains, on the slopes, and in the jungle, human heads were popping up everywhere, slowly surrounding each mountain pass, surging like quicksand. After the animals were obviously aware of it, they began to encircle them quickly on a large scale.

.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh."

Before the soldiers and horses arrived, arrows rained like locusts. The arrows shot into the mountain pass from all directions and nailed arrow clusters on the ground of the mountain pass. The animals saw it from a distance and began to panic.

Fazheng had already calculated the distance. The arrival time of the Sichuan army must be before the animals reached the mountain pass. Only a few long-distance running animals and some animals near the mountain pass rushed out of the mountain pass and fled to the virgin forest. The other animals were killed by the 20,000 Sichuan army.

Surrounded and pressed towards the river in a semicircle.

"Warning Zanshe, no one is allowed to shoot without permission."

There was almost no gap in the siege of 20,000 people. The soldiers standing on the hill began to shout when they saw the flag raised. The Sichuan soldiers used arrows to drive back the panicked animals. When they saw the trembling arrows stuck on the ground in front of them, the animals

They were frightened and retreated towards the gap in the siege, and the Han River retreated.

The encirclement was getting smaller and smaller. Some animals bumped into each other desperately and were stabbed to the ground by several arrows. The Sichuan Army soldiers walked out of the mountains one after another, pressing on the frightened and helpless animals step by step. The innocent eyes of the animals ran toward them with panicked footsteps.

The Han River, and soon, the Sichuan Army's semicircle merged with the Han River, and the animals had no way to escape.

The Sichuan army continued to advance, and they replaced their spears one after another. The spear forest roared loudly at the frightened animals.

Deer, sheep, and musk deer huddled together, and their whining sounds resounded on the river bank. The lowered water level was about one meter lower than the river bank. Many animals were squeezed into the river. The sound of "plop" was heard endlessly. Those who could swim began to swim, but those who couldn't swim began to swim.

The animals began to flutter, and hundreds of animals swam to the other side.
