Han Shimou

Chapter 337 Sulfur Gas

"In the eighteen-way princes, there is this great righteousness and this strategy. I'm afraid there is only the literary champion. Champion Wen, champion Wen, your courage is commendable, but it's really unthinkable. If you cut off Dong Zhuo's back road, you are undoubtedly looking for death. For the relocation of the capital, Dong Zhuo is bound to win.

In order to prevent Dong Zhuo from moving his capital, so as not to let Dong Zhuo kill his life, you put life and death out, which is really worthy of admiration. But it's just admiration. In order to save his life and dozens of lives of the Jia family, he had to fight with you this time.

After Li Xu left, Jia Xu opened his eyes, and then some regret surged up on his face and said.

And on the other side, Tong closed.

"Report! There is an army camping at the foot of the mountain, with a number of about 40,000 to 50,000!"

"Well, I know. Pass the order and prepare the soldiers, and the enemy may attack at any time. Let them all wake me up!"

"Yes!"

After Wen Han and a soldier ordered, although the surface was calm, there were thousands of waves in his heart, and his face became deeper and deeper.

"Five thousand, Dong Zhuo has sent so many soldiers and horses!"

Now in Tongguan, Wen Han's soldiers and horses are only more than 7,000, while the enemy's army is 50,000, nearly six times more than his soldiers and horses!

"There is no need to think too much. I have done everything I can do. The rest depends on the number of days.

Wen Han muttered in a low voice, and then his eyes condensed with glory. As the head of the army, he must be excited. Otherwise, they, who were already at a disadvantage, would guard the Tongguan Pass like a thin ice, which was broken by the 50,000 troops in Liangzhou.

As night falls, the mountains around Tongguan are full of a creepy and gloomy atmosphere. In the big village at the foot of Tongguan Mountain, a group of soldiers and horses from Liangzhou rushed out aggressively and rushed to the top of the mountain.

Several cavalry teams on the mountainside heard bursts of broken horseshoes and footsteps at the foot of the mountain. Suddenly, their faces were extremely heavy. After several young generals quickly exchanged glances, then nodded heavily at the same time, leading their respective teams to run and ignite piles of straws all over the mountain road.

The flames bloomed one after another, and the flames on the ignited straws rushed to the sky, but in these straws, a lot of sulfur was put in. A curling yellow smoke quickly spread, and soon enveloped the mountains within two miles.

Li Sui left 5,000 Liangzhou soldiers to guard the camp, and the rest of the soldiers and horses attacked with him. The crowd of 45,000 people seemed to have broken the mountain road.

Suddenly, a stream of yellow smoke hit. Li Sui was shocked, and then saw a lot of fire around the yellow smoke. I don't know what the soldiers and horses who seized Tongguan were doing.

Li Xu turned his eyes to Jia Xu. Jia Xu narrowed his eyes and seemed to be thinking. At this time, Guo Wei, who was next to Li Shu, opened his mouth to urge.

"General Li, why did you suddenly stop! At present, time is running out. It took me two days to come to Tongguan, and now there are only three days left to capture Tongguan. In three days, if we can't break through Tongguan, you and I, including these 50,000 Liangzhou Erlang, will lose their heads!"

Guo Yan's urging suddenly aroused the response of many soldiers. Li Chu was urged impatiently. Seeing that the yellow smoke was not threatening, he waved his hand and shook his horse whip and continued to lead the army to the mountain road.

At this time, Guan Wenxu and more than 7,000 sergeants under his command had a wet towel tied to their mouths. Although the yellow smoke rarely affected the gate, in case, the wind direction suddenly changed, Wenhan still tied all the wet wipes, which could reduce the inhalation of sulfur. The amount of poison gas.

not far away, horses' hoofs, footsteps and shouts came from the Liangzhou army, which became louder and louder. Wen Han had faintly seen the Liangzhou cavalry rushing ahead in the yellow smoke screen.

"Rolling wood!!!"

Wen Han took out a sharp sword from his waist and swung it down. Suddenly, the sergeants around him immediately shouted up and threw down the logs at his feet from the moment.

Bum! Bang! Bang, bang~!!

Penets fell along the trend, rolling missiles down the mountain road at a very fast speed. The Liangzhou cavalry, which rushed to the front, suddenly heard a burst of riots from the upper road. They were all shocked, and there was yellow fog all around. It was difficult for them to see what the object was coming from the upper road.

"Ah~!!! Avoid it!! It's rolling wood!!! A lot of rolling wood!!!"

It was not until these rolling wooden missiles came to their eyes that they were shocked to find the true face of these unknown objects. At the same time as they shouted, there was a loud sound that the logs violently hit the bodies of countless Liangzhou cavalrymen or their sitting horses, and the people and horses that were suddenly knocked off were out of control. The ground flew back and knocked over a lot of people.

As the logs kept bumping into the logs, the Liangzhou cavalry in front of them fell upside down, or flew down the mountain, or lost their body and fell into the mountain road. There was chaos in front of the Liangzhou army. Li Sui and Guo Yan were scared and shouted repeatedly to stabilize the formation.

Nearly hundreds of logs were all thrown from Tongguan by Wenhan's soldiers and horses in the time of half-pillar incense. Wen Han listened to the sad and tragic roar below, and his face was chilling. He waved his sword again and motioned the soldiers and horses to prepare the big stone.

And Li Jue and Guo Wei finally suppressed the chaos of the army and continued to launch an attack. Just as they were about to see the wall of Tongguan, a sound sounded on Tongguan, which made both of them scared.

"Fatstone!!!"

Wen Han drank Ling Ran, and then threw the boulders in the hands of Wen Han's soldiers. It was another roar, and the Liangzhou army was shocked. At this time, it encountered countless falling stones, which scared his soul. The sergeant Liangzhou, who rushed to the front, wanted to avoid it, but he was shocked to find that his whole body was as heavy as a mountain, weak, and dizzy, and there seemed to be a mass of fire rolling in his stomach.

Rumble!!

The falling stones were getting closer and closer, but the Liangzhou sergeants in front of these falling stones did not know how to escape. They were hit by the falling stones one after another and hit the crowd behind them. However, the situation of weakness and dizziness is not only the Liangzhou soldiers and horses in the front, but also the Liangzhou soldiers and horses in the back. They looked at the human stone, but they couldn't exert themselves to avoid it, and even if a small number of people exerted their strength, they could not avoid it.

The army in Liangzhou is getting more and more chaotic, and the sound of boulder cracking keeps rising. Jia Xu's face was cold behind the army. He had guessed that the slow and weak reaction of the Liangzhou army must be related to the yellow smoke.

"I didn't expect that the literary champion with an open and upright style would also use poisonous means. It seems that this time, he also knows that he is in a state of death!"

Jia Xu thought about it quickly in his mind, and then called a messenger. After quickly ordering a few words, he asked him to inform Li Chui.

The messenger ran fast in the chaotic army and soon rushed to Li Chui's side and reported.

General Li! Mr. Jia said that the yellow smoke was poisonous! Nowadays, the soldiers are weak, dull and vomiting. If they attack rashly, I'm afraid they will not only attack Tongguan, but also suffer heavy casualties! Therefore, Mr. Jia suggested to withdraw from the army for the time being and wait until he comes up with countermeasures to solve the key problems!"

"Fal of a bitch!! This road is rolling wood and falling stones. I waited for nearly thousands of soldiers and horses to rush to the bottom of Tongguan! Now this sentence from Jia Xu makes me wait to retreat without fighting? Who does he think he is!! The prime minister?! Does he know what a military warrant is? The military order is that once you can't complete the task, you have to behead yourself! Now every minute is very important to me. I don't have time to wait for him to think about countermeasures!"

Guo Yan, who had just been hit by a lot of gravel, stood up angrily and was ready to order a charge. Unexpectedly, before he could say anything, he heard the messenger next to him say that Jia Xu wanted them to retreat, and suddenly his stomach was full of anger.

"General Guo is right! Nowadays, everyone is carrying a military order, and every minute can't be wasted. Anyway, it's all death. It's better to let go!"

"Yes!! We have tens of thousands of troops here. Even if we are poisoned, one person with a mouthful of saliva can drown the defenders of Tongguan!!"

The two military lieutenants next to him shouted together. Li urged him to listen and thought about it for a long time. Jia Xu didn't miss anything. There must be a reason why he wanted to withdraw his troops. However, Li urged that he also had the same idea with Guo Yan and others and wanted to let go.

"That's enough, shut up! You went back and told Jia Sima that the soldiers were united and wanted to break through Tongguan, but they didn't want to retreat without a fight. It can't be true to everyone's wishes. I decided to let go with the soldiers!"

As soon as Li's voice fell, other surrounding Liangzhou generals suddenly raised their arms and shouted. Li urged to see that the morale of the army was like a rainbow, and his fighting spirit was extremely high. He set a little in his heart. He raised a sharp gun in his hand and led the army to Tongguan.

And on Tongguan, Wenhan still had more than 7,000 righteous soldiers and soldiers who had been ready for a long time. Arrows with forest arrows were aiming at the distance. As Liangzhou soldiers rushed into sight one by one, these arrows moved their bodies.

"Squee!!"

Guan Yu and Xu Huang stood around the critical moment, and Wen Han stood in the center. The three of them shouted and ordered almost at the same time. At the critical moment, countless arrows suddenly flew. Arrows flew one by one and swept up gusts of wind, spreading the yellow smoke all over the world. The arrows came through the air, and the Liangzhou army was struggling to rushing. The toxins on their bodies were at the strongest time. When they started running, they had exhausted their spirit and physical strength. At this time, how could they have the energy to avoid it?

These Liangzhou troops are like immovable targets, allowing more than 7,000 righteous soldiers and soldiers at the gate to shoot arbitrarily, and the screams of arrows pierce into the body.

A body full of arrows fell down, and then there were successive people rushing to it, and then they were swallowed up by a torrent of arrows.

Whether it is Wen Han's righteous soldiers and horses or the opposite Liangzhou sergeant, they all have a ferocious and crazy face. The two sides have reached the point where you are dead and alive. There is no emotion to talk about, no sympathy. Only by killing and repeling the other party's soldiers and horses can they survive.

Although the Liangzhou sergeant encountered a continuous wave of arrows like a storm, the number was too large, and Li Sui also brought a lot of knives and shields this time. Under Tongguan, several huge shield walls were constantly advancing. At the same time, behind the shield wall, there were many Liangzhou archers who were constantly shooting at Tongguan. It's a pity that these Liangzhou archers inhaled too much sulfur and were weak all over. Many of the arrows shot fell to the ground before they reached the gate. On the contrary, on the other side, the enemy's arrows were suddenly fierce, shooting many shields in the hands of knives and shields.

Li urged to observe the situation secretly, and then he understood why Jia Xu asked him to withdraw from the army. With the passage of time, the toxins in these soldiers seem to be getting deeper and deeper, and the phenomenon of fatigue and dullness is becoming more and more serious.

Li Chu's face was so dark that he was about to drip water. The two soldiers and horses that had just broken through under the Tongguan gate were about to break the door. Suddenly, several burning arrows shot away and hit several piles of straw next to the gate. Suddenly, dozens of extremely strong yellow smoke surged. Shortly after the two soldiers and horses were swallowed up by yellow smoke, They fainted and fell to the ground.

In this way, not to mention breaking the gate, even this gate is difficult to get close to. Moreover, Li Tui didn't know how long the yellow smoke could burn, and the poisoning under his command became more and more serious. On the contrary, although the momentum of the attack of the defenders at the critical point also weakened with the rise of yellow smoke to Guankou, it was several times more fierce than his command.
