Chapter 136
Tiefeng Army.
Zhuo Zilin looked at the soldiers who climbed up again and said, "Hurry up, you must go up quickly. Now they are distracted by Tiehu and others, and they will definitely not pay attention to the cliff."
"Also, notify General Lu Qian and ask him to attack the mountain pass regardless of casualties to put more pressure on the other side."
"Although there was an accident, everything is still under control."
Zhuo Zilin quickly dispatched and responded quickly. In this regard, Guo Kaien and others were far behind.
Zhuo Zilin is a professional fighter after all.
"General, our casualties are a bit too much. The number of casualties on the mountain pass has reached more than 300."
"Keep filling."
"Order the soldiers climbing the cliff to set up defenses on the spot and wait for more reinforcements to come up."
"Yes."
Zhuo Zilin stood somewhere, observing the direction of the mountain pass.
As time passed, the sky became brighter and brighter, and at this time, their time was limited.
If the mountain pass could not be taken within the specified time, I am afraid that the soldiers who died before would be wasted.
At this time, Master Li on the city wall was also very anxious.
It is true that the mountain pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack, but the key is that the enemy suddenly appeared on the cliff like a miracle.
He wanted to send people to support, but the attack here was so swift that he dared not send people to help.
At this time, the number of soldiers fighting with them was getting smaller and smaller.
"The archers are coming."
Seeing the archers coming, Tiehu was furious. Looking at the few soldiers left around him, he said, "Let's retreat to the woods."
"Yes."
They can only retreat now, otherwise, they will lose a lot if they are shot into a hornet's nest by the archers.
"Retreat."
When Guo Kaien and Liu Tiancheng saw them trying to escape, they said, "Stop them."
Several officers and soldiers rushed over, but the captain was very powerful and slashed with a knife.
"Puff."
"Ah!"
Another soldier was killed. The blood and the bloody appearance of the captain were very scary, which frightened the remaining soldiers and made them retreat.
"Ah!"
Seeing them retreating back to the woods, Liu Tiancheng was so angry that he almost wanted to kill the retreating soldiers.
"Stupid, if you don't retreat, our archers will shoot them."
The reprimanded soldiers lowered their heads and dared not speak.
At this time, they killed less than ten people on the other side, while their side lost nearly 200 people.
Especially the captain, who was too fierce and killed dozens of them alone.
Guo Kaien was almost beheaded. If Liu Tiancheng's archers hadn't come, Guo Kaien might have been finished.
"This group of enemies is too strong."
"It must be the iron soldiers of the Tiefeng Army." Liu Tiancheng was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
"Iron soldiers?" Guo Kaien heard from Lord Zhao that this was the elite of the elite in the vanguard army, specially used for attacking, sneak attacks and beheading.
The captain's name was Tiehu, and no one knew his real name. He was not only strong but also very powerful.
"It turned out to be him." Guo Kaien was frightened and sweating.
He actually fought with Tiehu?
He was a little shocked.
If Tiehu didn't have to take care of too many things, he felt that Tiehu could have killed Guo Kaien in just the first move.
"Hiss, since it's this person, we should defend more easily than attack, or, don't fight in close combat."
"Quick, let's use rockets."
At this time, Guo Kaien thought of a way, and it happened that they had this thing ready.
"Yeah."
At this time, more than a hundred archers, as well as other officers and soldiers, constables, guards, and even young people, came here.
"Shoot with rockets."
However, at this moment, there was another shout of killing in the woods, and another group of reinforcements rushed up.
"Oh no, it's their reinforcements."
"Shoot."
"Swish, swish, swish."
Liu Tiancheng was shocked and quickly gave orders.
"Swish, swish, swish."
The rocket fell into the woods.
Tiehu saw the rocket fall to the ground. It was also a clear autumn day, and the dead leaves on the ground were quickly ignited.
"Captain, they actually used rockets."
"Ahem."
Their people wanted to rush out, but after knowing how powerful they were, the people guarding the mountain pass were not stupid. They all waited far away and only served with bows and arrows.
The soldiers who rushed out were shot and killed before they could hold out for long.
Especially now that the sky has brightened.
"Retreat."
At this time, Zhuo Zilin, seeing that the sky had already brightened, sighed and said, "Let them retreat."
"Yes."
"Ding ding dong dong."
Suddenly, the gong sounded.
"Alas, the effort was wasted at the last moment, the effort was wasted at the last moment."Tiehu heard the horn sound, and then saw that the sky was already bright, and Tiehu's heart was in pain.
He hated the rope that suddenly broke even more. If it weren't for it, they would have killed their way over and seized the mountain pass.
"Ah!"
"Let's retreat."
If we stay any longer now, there is only one way to die.
"Yes!"
Then, they retreated.
Thanks to the interference of rockets, and their fear of the iron soldiers, the defenders here did not pursue them.
It allowed Tiehu and his men to retreat smoothly.
On the other side, Qianzong also took the soldiers and took away the bodies of his own people, and then withdrew.
"Clear up the battle situation."
"Yes."
Zhuo Zilin was very upset, and sighed as he looked at the reckoning officer who was going away.
It was a sure win, but it was broken.
"Damn it, it's all because those clues were broken. However, it's a good thing that Tiehu was taken down, otherwise, General Zhao would have killed me. "
Tiehu is Zhao Chong's favorite soldier.
Besides, he is also the captain of the Iron Army.
"General, I am guilty." Tiehu led the remaining soldiers to retreat and kneel on the ground.
Zhuo Zilin looked at them with gray faces, and Tiehu looked like a bloody man. He sighed and said, "Captain Tie, the fault this time is not yours, but the broken rope. I have ordered people to check. The broken rope is suspected to be secretly cut by a cultivator with a flying sword."
"It seems that there are cultivators protecting this mountain pass. The possibility of us taking it down is too low."
Zhuo Zilin thought of the cultivators and sighed again. In the face of absolute power, no matter how cunning he is, he can't take this mountain pass.
Besides, he still doesn't know the temper of this cultivator.
"What? It's a cultivator? What's going on? "
Tiehu was also shocked when he heard it.
He never expected that it was the immortal cultivator who took action?
However, this is right. The ropes are so thick that even if they cut them by themselves, it will take a lot of effort, not to mention that the cuts are so smooth.
"It's not clear yet."
"Report."
At this time, the liquidator has returned. He is responsible for clearing the war damage and reporting these results to Zhuo Zilin.
