Three Kingdoms: Marry Sun Shangxiang at the beginning

Chapter 359 Cao Cao's First Initiative: Miner Tactics

In December, the Tiannan area was still as clear as autumn in the north. At the foot of the Impal Mountains, a large group of generals came.

"General, you are playing tricks in the big tent of the Chinese army, and you insist on asking me to bring 10 yuan of wooden planks. Each piece of wooden plank is one foot long, four feet wide, and as thick as a shield. Putting on the armor and carrying a wooden plank will exhaust him to death, let alone climbing hundreds of feet to fight." Wu Yi said, holding a long knife and staring in the direction of the main peak.

Xu Huang's face was flushed with confidence at the moment, "Don't worry, everyone, there are nine steps to go up here, and the rest are dense forests and steep slopes."

"Bring the Cave Master, Busy Yachang, and Golden Ring Three Knots."

"The end will be here." The three of them came out in response.

"The three of you, each leading [-] soldiers and horses, armed with swords and shields, push forward until they reach the nine steps, build a barrier, and cannot continue to attack. Those who disobey the order will be beheaded!"

"Here."

"All generals, perform their respective duties. After receiving the order, dispatch immediately without any mistakes."

"Besides orders, anyone who dares to fight without authorization will be killed."

"Here."

The generals looked at each other, seeing that Xu Huang was as confident today as when he arrived at the foot of the Impal Mountains on the first day, so he believed a little bit, got on his horse and left.

"Kill!~"

In a blink of an eye, [-] soldiers had already killed halfway up the mountain, which was the last step on the mountainside...

In fact, it is the flatter part of the mountain.

"Form a barrier." The cave master raised his arms and shouted.

"Form a barrier." Jin Huan's three knots helped the soldiers at the bottom, keeping their backs tightly against the earth wall, and then blocked the shield in front of themselves. In this way, triangles appeared between the shield and the mountain. On the slope, even if fireballs, arrows, rolling stones, and wood fell from it, they would not be hurt at all.

If there is a thousand-jin boulder on the top that can kill the sergeants hidden under these shields, it is also a minority.

After staying on the top of the mountain for two consecutive months, no matter how many rocks there are, they have been mined.

"put!"

On the top, General Appal commanded many soldiers of the Allied Forces of the Four Nations, and rolled the logs down the mountain. There were many thorns and bamboos stuck around the logs.
Even if it can't roll down the mountain, it can still run across the forest and block the road, making it impossible for the soldiers below to attack for a while.

"Everyone, prepare the planks, come on."

At the foot of the mountain, Xu Huang saw that the [-] knife and shield hands had gained a firm foothold, and immediately ordered the [-] prisoners to push forward with wooden boards on their shoulders.

The four of them were carrying a wooden plank, and they were walking like flying. It didn't take long for these prisoners and soldiers who lived in the mountains and forests all year round to carry the wooden plank to the eighth step.

"General, what are those Han people doing down here?" On the top of the mountain, a bearded lieutenant general looked at Appal and asked.

"It's suicidal."

"It's not like they haven't used planks to attack mountains before, but unfortunately, the planks they prepared this time are even bigger."

"Also, don't look at them relying on wooden boards to form formations, as long as our army dispatches elephant soldiers, these Han people will undoubtedly be defeated."

Appal stared at the sword and shield soldiers who began to advance towards the mountain.

"Command to attack with stone bullets."

"Here."

Stone bombs fell all over the sky, and at the foot of the mountain, on the seventh step, there were already [-] more miners holding shovels.

At this moment, Man Chong was looking at them who were a little nervous, "Everyone, today you will be rewarded with five taels of silver every day. As long as you can work as usual and honestly dig out caves in the mountains that can accommodate people, after you go back , and five taels of silver."

"hiss……"

Everyone knows that ten taels of silver is worth ten taels of money.

Yiguan money can buy one mu of land, but this ten taels of silver is ten mu.

Ten acres of land, saving some, is enough for their family to support another scholar.

For these 3 people, the expenditure above this time is 30 taels.

The silver ingots had just been spread to the states and counties in Dahan. All the miners also saw some silver ingots in the hands of the supervisors. What they came into contact with on weekdays were all broken silver, the kind of one or two cents.

"Brothers, ten taels of silver, do it."

"Snapped"

"Ding"

Countless miners turned over and stood up, rushed up to the ninth floor, and then swung their shovels, digging a cave for hiding soldiers above their heads.

They don't need to dig too much, as long as they can open up a place that can accommodate 20 people to hide every twenty or thirty feet, and Xu Huang also ordered that according to the way they dig mines, don't cause the mountain to collapse. landslide.

"General, it's not good. The enemy army sent a lot of miners up this time. Look, they are digging the mountain again."

General Appal's complexion changed drastically, "The Han people are digging caves for Tibetan soldiers."

"The order was sent, and the 20 troops attacked and directly drove the Han people down the nine steps."

"Here."

"Kill!~"

In the mountains and forests around the main peak, countless enemy troops suddenly appeared all over the mountains and plains.

Colorful armor, and a helmet so poor that it doesn't reflect light in the sun.

There are also all kinds of weapons, which are all their equipment at the moment.

But the momentum of the 20 people rushing to kill is tyrannical and domineering.

"All miners, immediately hide in the cave."

Man Chong gave a loud shout.

"Quick, move faster."

How long has it been?

Thirty thousand miners failed to open up a thousand caves for Tibetan soldiers, so there was only one way to continue digging deeper into the mountain.

Xu Huang stood at the foot of the mountain, quietly watching the 20 troops come down the mountain.

In the mountains and forests, with their backs against the trees, behind those soldiers of the Han army who formed formations with swords and shields, [-] troops had quietly increased.

At this moment, a steady stream of civilian husbands transported the quiver up the mountain one by one.

"Kill!~"

When the two armies were only thirty or forty steps away, the moment the enemy could even see the Han army hiding inside the iron shield, the all-black shield suddenly sank downward.

"Swish"

The moment they fell down in unison, behind them, there appeared three rows of battle lines that were tens of miles long.

"Fire arrows!"

These soldiers with the Zhuge Liannu pulled the triggers one after another.

Triple shot!
At one time, 15 arrows fell into the enemy army.

One face to face, at least [-] to [-] lightly armored bearded barbarians fell down.

"The enemy has an ambush."

"Don't be afraid, they just ambushed tens of thousands of crossbowmen. If they continue to rush down, they will only take a few dozen steps. They won't have time to change their arrows."

Among the 20 troops, there are naturally many veterans who can fight well.

but……

What did they see?
The three rows of continuous crossbowmen actually lay down on the spot one after another, giving way to the three rows of continuous crossbowmen behind them.

"There are three more rows?"

"Whoosh whoosh..."

When the dense rain of arrows struck like locusts crossing the border, patches of enemy troops on the mountain forest were harvested, and their lives were worse than grass.

"click"

When the [-] Zhuge Liannu stopped, blood flowed like a river on the hillside, and immediately, three rows of crossbowmen stood up in front.

What they held in their hands was the loaded Zhuge Liannu.

On the top of the mountain, General Appal was a little desperate.

"The battle formation of the Han people... is really terrifying, and there is such a continuous crossbow that can shoot ten arrows at one breath!"
