Chapter 90
Yang Cong climbed up to the flat part of the mountain in the dark, came to Xiao Zhuo, and saluted with fists in his hands.

Xiao Zhuo nodded and said: "Miss Yang, you did a good job. The villagers are not injured, right?"

With Xiao Zhuo's approval, Yang Cong was extremely happy, and excitedly rolled up his sleeves: "No, we ran according to Song Junjun's order, and everyone is fine. Now those Xirong people have come in, let's start the fight?"

The dense torches under the hillside poured into the narrow pass like flowing water, and the people of Xirong had already entered the ambush of Mr. Pei, so she knew that Xirong would suffer a big loss this time.

Xiao Zhuo's eyes were heavy, and he looked calm and breezy, as if everything was under his control, and his voice was light: "No rush, wait a little longer."

Yang Cong had already held the long saber, ready to go down and fight the Xirong people at any time.When Xiao Zhuo said this, he was a little puzzled.

She didn't dare to ask Mr. Pei directly, so she cast her suspicious eyes on Song Zhen who was standing beside him.Song Zhen waved the feather fan, and was equally calm, signaling her not to act rashly for the time being.

Seeing that both of them were calm and composed, Yang Cong couldn't figure it out, so he looked at the pass between the two mountains.

The entire passage was about one mile long, and two or three hundred Xirong sergeants had poured in, and half of the passage was already occupied by torches.Standing on the hillside and looking down, the enemy's actions are under control, and even the faces of those Xirong people can be seen clearly.

Seeing that Xiao Zhuo remained silent, she was so anxious that she wanted to jump up.With so many Xirong people coming in, why didn't the young master give the order to start the fight?

"Please look, my lord." Song Zhen pointed at the entrance below with a feather fan.

Yang Cong followed Song Zhen's direction and saw a Xirong man riding a horse into the pass.

She often dealt with Xirong people, and she recognized the unusual identity of this Xirong person at a glance.The pass was narrow, but the Xirong soldiers gave way to him one after another, which showed that this was a leader or something.

Xiao Zhuo nodded slowly: "It's the commander-in-chief. It's almost there, wait a little longer, let him go deeper."

After the commander of Xirong had advanced a little further, Xiao Zhuo said to the sergeant next to him, "Send an order to General Meng to seal the entrance."

Yang Cong was even more puzzled, and asked, "My lord, don't we wait for all those Xirong people to come in?"

There are more than half of the Xirong people outside who have not entered the pass. If the entrance is sealed, wouldn't it be necessary to let more than half of the enemies go?
Xiao Zhuo's eyes were cold, and his voice was stern: "Without a general, there will be chaos. Now their commander-in-chief has come in, as long as that general is killed, the opponent will naturally fall apart."

Meng Yue, who was lying in ambush near the pass, received the military order, immediately stood up, and softly shouted: "Let go!"

The two hundred soldiers waiting on the hillside cut the ropes that tied the rolling logs with sharp weapons, and hundreds of rolling logs rushed down the hillside, smashing down on the Xirong soldiers below.

The Xirong army soldiers crowded in front of the pass only heard the rumbling sound coming from above their heads, and before they could understand what happened, they were smashed to death by the rolling wood.There was a sudden chaos, screams, and the neighing of horses.

Xiu Muye, who was still outside the pass, saw the rolling logs rushing down from the hillsides on both sides, smashing the Xirong soldiers near the pass to their backs. The dust was flying, and a large amount of logs gradually sealed the entrance. He exclaimed:
"We've been tricked, and the commander is still inside."

The Xirong soldiers near him were at a loss, Xiu Muye shouted: "Hurry up, move the wood, we have to rescue the commander."

Although they had 1000 people, they were now cut into two sections, and the enemy only needed to deal with the more than [-] people in the pass.Moreover, in this terrain, the Xirong cavalry could not give full play to their advantages.

It must be that man, who set up an ambush.

Dan Muji is a rare and fierce general among them, if he is damaged here, it will be difficult for him to explain to the general when he goes back.

There was a panic outside, and Dan Muji in the pass was also terrified, riding his horse and circling in place.

"Commander, the entrance is blocked by a mass of logs!" shouted a sergeant, running up to his horse. "Our ranks have been cut in two."

"This is not something the villagers can do. This is an ambush by the Dayan Army." Dan Muji understood, jumped off his horse and drew out his saber, "They are all in ambush on the hillsides on both sides. Warriors, quickly draw out your saber and kill me!" Go up the mountain!"

To climb up the hillside, one had to overcome the upright stone wall in front of them. The Xirong Army had no ladders, so two people crossed their hands under the stone wall and let the other climb up by stepping on their hands.

More than a dozen Xirong soldiers climbed up the hillside first, and as soon as they took the knife in their hands, they were hit by a stone and rolling log flying towards them and fell down.

The [-] soldiers led by Qiu Liming specially used stones and oil-soaked logs to deal with the Xirong people who were trying to climb up the hillside in the pass.Seeing that the Xirong soldiers were attacking the hillside, he ordered the soldiers to fight.

Under the night, only Xirong people held torches, and the people on the slope could see clearly, and the stones they threw were very accurate.

For a moment, rocks and logs fell down the hillsides on both sides like rain. Whether it was the Xirong soldiers who climbed up the hillside or those who stayed in the passage, they were all smashed to the point of crying.

Song Zhen, who was standing halfway up the mountain, shook his lupine slowly, ignoring the chaos at the foot of the mountain, and explained to Yang Cong:
"Our soldiers have no weapons, and the number of them is smaller than that of the opponent. If they are all sent in, not only will it be difficult to deal with, but the team in front of them will have already left the pass. Second, we must fight quickly. We don't know the situation of the enemy's central army yet. This good opportunity will severely injure the enemy's vanguard, preventing them from advancing rashly, and it will also buy us time to prepare."

Yang Cong's eyes were bright, and he said excitedly to Song Zhen: "Sergeant, I understand. Before that, I was thinking of going down and killing those Xirong people. Now that I think about it, I am really reckless."

If all 1000 people are let in, it is not impossible for the other party to rush up the mountain.At that point, their advantage becomes a disadvantage.When there are few people, it is not advisable to head-on with each other.

She still felt a little sorry.

It seems that I will not be able to lead troops to fight in the future.It turns out that fighting also requires brains. For a brute force like her, it's better to be a big soldier honestly.

Xiu Muye, who was outside the pass, heard the wailing and howling of ghosts and wolves in the passage, and knew that the situation was not good, so he ordered the soldiers to move the logs quickly.

A sergeant ran up to him and said, "Centurion, a lot of wood is sticky and sticks to your hands. It smells like oil."

Have oil?

Xiu Muye felt that his hair was standing on end, and shouted, "Take the torches away quickly, and don't get close to those logs!"

The opponent is really ruthless, not only blocking the entrance with wood, but also oiled wood.

All the sergeants also understood, and immediately retreated holding torches.Only those who do not have torches are allowed to move the wood.

Xiao Zhuo, who was halfway up the mountain, saw the torches leaving the pass, and said in a low voice, "The other party responded quickly, but if the fire can't be lit, the battle will be troublesome."

Song Zhen also became a little nervous: "Master, this fire must be burned, otherwise all previous efforts will be wasted."

They blocked the entrance with wood, in order to divide the enemy into two sections, and then wiped out the enemies in the passage with all their strength.They must not be allowed to move the wood, and the two parties will meet.

Xiao Zhuo didn't say much, he stretched his hand to the side, and a sergeant next to him handed over a bow and an arrow.The arrowheads were wrapped in strips of cloth soaked in fuel.

Xiao Zhuo holds the bow in his left hand, puts the arrow on the string with his right hand, and ignites the arrowhead in a brazier lit beside him.Then he drew the bow fully and flew away with one arrow. The arrow drew a long flame and landed on the pile of logs piled up like a hill at the entrance.

There was a flash of fire on the pile of wood, and then a burst of flames burst out.

Almost in an instant, the raging fire rose into the sky, and even the logs in the passage were also ignited.
