Chapter 65 On the Eve of Mountain Capture

In a blink of an eye, four days later, the Song army still attacked the Black Mountain Cliff, but the intensity of the attack was much worse than that of the previous days (river crab). Many people did not even go up the mountain road, and retreated after seeing the barbarians shooting random arrows. Shortly after they retreated, the next group of people rushed up, and then repeated the previous scene. In this way, although the Song army fought very lively, there were not many casualties, and the casualties in the past four days were not even as heavy as the previous Yunzhou army's strong attack.

Now, after watching the sunset, the Song army launched the last attack, and then retreated again under the attack of the barbarians without any substantial casualties. Looking at the Song army leaving like a low tide, Duan Sigui's expression standing on the top of the Black Mountain cliff became serious: "Mu Feng leader, I always feel that the Song army's attacks in the past few days are completely disgruous, and most of them are fraudulent."

"What can Song Jun do to cheat? Don't you just want to consume our energy and weapons through this threat-less attack? Mu Feng looked at his solemn companion in front of him: "But we are not stupid. We have kept the use of weapons to the lowest. As long as Song Jun doesn't come to the mountain road, we can't attack with all our strength!"

"I don't think it's that simple. The main general of the Song army has been guarding the southwest. Wang Chong, who is famous in the State of Song, can never make such an arrangement. Can't he see that our attack has not been strong these days? Why do he do such useless work? Moreover, Song Jun's grain and fodder was cut off by our people and lost a lot before. Now they can't use too much. How can they consume it with us like this? Duan Sigui still sticks to his own opinion.

"Then what do you think Song Jun can have?" Mu Feng said impatiently, "Now we have an absolute advantage. Can Song Jun still invite immortals to help? As for what you said is wrong, I also found it, but it is actually easy to understand. With Wang Chong's mind, of course, he wanted to fight quickly, but those soldiers of the Song army didn't think so. After seeing the casualties that day, how could Song Jun launch such an attack again? Even if forced by the officers above, those soldiers can't really sacrifice their lives. This is the truth of the Song army's weak attack in these days!"

"But..." Duan Si still wanted to say something, but was rudely interrupted by Mu Feng: "Shut up. I'm in charge here. You can't mess up our military hearts! Humph, don't think you had an idea for us before, and you want to replace me to command me. Don't forget that you are from the white people, and most of them are from the black people. You don't have the right to interfere with me!"

Duan Sigui listened to the other party's powerless words and looked at the other party's seemingly defensive look. He knew what the problem was, thus stopping his desire to persuade him. The problem should be the previous Xiaosheng. Because of his command, the barbarians were able to kill thousands of Song troops, which made the barbarians guarding the mountain admire him very much. But in this way, Mu Feng was unhappy for fear that he would overwhelm him on his prestige and shake his position.

Because of this idea, Mu Feng did not talk to Duan Sigui about anything about guarding the mountain after that, and his attitude towards him became a little stiff. With a wry smile in his heart, Duan Sigui had to turn to his place. He knew too well the internal problems of the barbarians. In the eyes of outsiders, the iron barbarians, because of the existence of the black and white flowers, in fact, they are not so unified internally.

In particular, there has been a constant dispute between the black and white clans for 200 years. However, the reason is that their origins are different. In fact, the barbarians are not completely composed of native people in the mountains and forests. Only the black and flower tribes are pure barbarians, while the white people are mostly composed of the people of the Central Plains after the Wu Rebellion 200 years ago to escape the war and enter the mountains.

From the beginning, the two sides were on guard against each other. After many years of mutual attack, the two tribes were even incompatible. It was not until more than 20 years ago that Yang Shengchang, a wise and brave man, came out of the Bai clan. Under his leadership, he not only defeated the black clan whose strength was above him, but also won their recognition. In the end, the barbarians were able to make a real heart.

Then, under the leadership of Yang Shengchang, the barbarians launched an attack on Song Jing, which resulted in being defeated by the Song army led by Wang Chong at that time. Yang Shengchang also died in the battle, and the hard-won alliance between the black and white clans also began to crack. Although the Mu family later unified the three barbarians with the power in their hands, in fact, the struggle between black and white barbarians did not stop because of this, and they were still wary of each other.

This invasion of the Central Plains, in addition to the fact that the barbarians were short of food for the winter because the previous grain trade with Ye Hao could not be successful, it was more important that Mujeri finally saw the hope of barbarian unification with the efforts of two generations, so he wanted to consolidate his position in the whole ethnic group through foreign war.

Unfortunately, his ambition finally failed. The barbarian army was defeated by the Song army and let the Song army kill on his own land. In this way, Mu Jerry was worried that his status would be affected. In order not to have anything worse, he integrated all the horses, resulting in the current situation of a mix of black and white. Although the black cliff is dominated by the black people, there are still important people of the Bai nationality such as Duan Sigui. However, Mu Jerry did not expect that such an arrangement would make the suspicion between the black and white clans become superficial.

It was precisely because he understood the context of this that Duan Sigui did not continue to stick to his opinion. But he was still worried about this. He was still thinking about what medicine was sold in Song Jun's gourd.

As Mu Feng said, this half-fein attack by the Song army does not pose a threat to the people on the Black Mountain Cliff, so they can't consume the weapons of the people on the mountain at all. But if it goes on like this, it will only be detrimental to the Song army, which still has problems with food. The longer it takes, the more powerless they will be to attack. And things will never be self-made because of the greed and fear of death as Mu Feng said.

Although he doesn't know much about Song Jun, Duan Sigui has known Wang Chong for a long time. Under his eyes, it is impossible for these Song Jun to fake. Then all this is naturally at Wang Chong's instructions. Since he made such a decision, there must be some unspeakable schemes in it, so that he can attack himself unprepared.

"What kind of conspiracy is it?" Walking casually on the top of the mountain, Duan Sigui only had such an idea in his mind. When it was about to completely darken that day, he came to the back cliff of the Black Mountain Cliff. Looking at the slightly independent environment with the front because of the rocks, a light flashed in his heart: "Is it possible that Song Jun wanted to go around behind us and then come up from below?"

Thinking about this, Duan Sigui couldn't help walking to the edge of the cliff and looking down, but only saw the steep cliff, and there was no road to let people come up. This cliff is several times steeper than before. Can Song Jun really have the courage to climb up? Or am I over-minded?" After thinking for a long time, he couldn't get a clear answer and finally had to give up.

But this problem was in his heart, which made him feel uncomfortable. In the end, he had to call a few of his cronies - although the guards here were handed over to the black barbarians, as one of the leaders of the white barbarians, Duan Si returned with more than 20 cronies - and ordered, "You start to pay attention to the back mountain from today, heaven After the dark, you should send a group of people to guard the edge of the cliff. If there is anything wrong, warn them quickly!"

After making such an arrangement, Duan Sigui was able to relax a little and go to the tent specially set up for him to rest. However, they did not find that in the camp of the Song army at the foot of the mountain, Guizhou and Dingxi, which had not had any attack tasks, had begun to reorganize the battalion.

After so many days of rest, the spirits of the two people have returned to the best state. This time, they can get such a chance to attack the Black Mountain Cliff. Naturally, the soldiers of the two armies are rubbing their hands one by one, waiting for an order from above.

In the Yunzhou military camp on the other side, Ye Hao, who had changed his armor, looked at this scene but laughed in his heart: "You must not have thought that the barbarians on the mountain already knew this trick. Then failure will be your final end!" Thinking of this, he was even more excited, because this time he finally had a chance to turn over again.

Once the Song army's western expedition ended in failure, those people in the court will inevitably use this excuse to eliminate Wang Chong. And for their own benefit, the Ye family will inevitably let themselves, a member of the family who has made great achievements, hold the military power in the southwest. At that time, as the commander-in-chief of the Southwest Army, he will naturally have a place in the court and truly have his own position. At the same time, there is another point, which is to avenge the people who killed themselves and killed their brothers.

The only shortcoming is that Xu Jinghong, the culprit, died too simply. He was actually among the strange soldiers, which really made Ye Hao a little unwilling. However, he soon put aside this unhappiness and looked forward to the future, and a proud smile began to permeate his face for the first time since his brother's death.

At the same time, behind the Black Mountain Cliff, a 500-person team was also ready to act after dark!
