Chapter 393
Guan Yu's gaze turned to Xiao Yuan.
He had to admit that Xiao Yuan's ability to recognize people was really unrivaled by the ancient and modern.
"Okay, if only you understood!"
"Ben will give you 3,000 elite soldiers, you set off immediately and go to capture Zhuti Mountain for Ben General!"
Guan Yu happily ordered.
"No!"
Deng Ai received the general's order.
It's on the same day.
Deng Ai led 5,000 mountain soldiers, took advantage of the night to find out the camp, and went around to the back of Zhuti City.
At nightfall, Mount Juti is already in sight.
Deng Ai looked up and couldn't help but gasp.
This Juti Mountain is not high, and it is extremely steep at critical times, almost at a vertical angle.
If you want to climb such a mountain, you can imagine the difficulty.
Deng Ai couldn't help but recall all the painful experiences when he walked the Yinping Road and crossed the Sky Ridge.
When he climbed over the skyscraper, at least nearly 1,000 soldiers were killed.
Even he himself, when he crossed it, almost fell down the mountain and fell into a pulp.
Today, the steepness of this Juti Mountain is no less than that of the Sky Ridge.
Deng Ai knew that if he climbed this mountain tonight, he didn't know how many soldiers would fall to his death from the mountain and be buried on the ground.
But he didn't have a choice.
He knew that if he couldn't climb this mountain, he wouldn't be able to occupy the terrain advantage and form a condescending position over Juti City.
Without condescending, it was impossible for the 50,000 Han army to capture the city of Zhuti with a frontal attack alone.
If they don't take Zhuti City, they will not be able to continue to wave their army south, go straight to the hinterland of Nanzhong, and completely quell the rebellion of the Southern Barbarians and Mengshu.
The key to the victory or defeat of the Southern Expedition is his performance tonight.
Deng Ai took a deep breath and shouted: "The whole army obeys the order and climbs Mount Zhuti for me.!" "
After the order was handed down.
Deng Ai took the lead and climbed towards Zhuti Mountain.
The 5,000 mountain soldiers of the Han army, each with great spirits, pinned their weapons to their waists, and climbed up towards Zhuti Mountain.
Soon, Deng Ai found out that he underestimated this Zhuti Mountain too much.
The Sky Ridge is difficult to climb, but the mountain is full of woods and support points to climb.
But the Mojuti Mountains are sparsely wooded, and at most they are low bushes.
The soldiers climbed all by protruding cliffs, and they could barely borrow a little strength.
Deng Ai climbed up less than five feet, but he was so tired that he was out of breath and broke out in a cold sweat.
Soon, the wheezing sound on the mountain sounded one after another.
"Ah~~"
Suddenly, a scream rang out.
Deng Ai turned back suddenly, only to see a soldier who had lost his footing, rolling all the way down the hillside and falling to pieces.
On the hillside, there were bursts of terrifying screams.
In Deng Ai's mind, he couldn't help but think of all kinds of terrifying pictures when he climbed the Sky Ridge.
That day was arguably the most feared day of his life.
He saw with his own eyes that thousands of soldiers had fallen from the cliff and were broken into meat sauce.
Perhaps, the battle of climbing this Juti Mountain today will also repeat the tragedy of the beginning. (If you read a violent novel, go to Feilu Novel Network!) )
Deng Ai knew that the matter had come to this point, and he had no chance to turn back.
Thereupon.
Deng Ai gritted his teeth, turned around, and continued to climb up.
After the initial surprise, the five thousand soldiers also calmed down and began to climb up silently.
Five!
Ten zhang!
Fifteen!
The soldiers are rising.
As the altitude increases, so does the risk factor.
Constantly some soldiers missed, rolled all the way, and fell to pieces.
In less than two hours, at the foot of Zhuti Mountain, there were already corpses and bones.
But no one was terrified, no one cared anymore about who had fallen to their deaths.
They could only grit their teeth and concentrate on climbing up, hoping that they would not become the unlucky ghost.
Finally.
When the East is faintly white.
Deng Ai fought with his last strength and climbed to the top of the mountain with difficulty.
Standing on the top of the mountain, he looked down at Zhu Ticheng and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
I saw Zhuti City on the mountainside, the lights were clear, and the soldiers on the city wall could be vaguely seen, yawning.
Apparently complemented.
They didn't realize that behind them, a Han soldier had quietly touched up.
The corners of Deng Ai's mouth raised a smile of relief.
The barbarian army was unaware of it, which meant that the surprise attack mission given to him by Guan Yu had been successful.
Next, all he had to do was to get all the 5,000 soldiers to the top of the mountain.
Then, using ropes, a large number of long-range strike weapons such as bows and arrows, and fire oil were dragged to the top of the mountain.
After that, they could easily launch a deadly long-range strike against Juti City under their feet.
In front of Deng Ai's eyes, it seemed that he had appeared, and the expression of fear on his face when he and his barbarian army found that countless rockets were shooting down overhead.
"'~Ah Hui Muan, do you think you can hold Juti City, joke!"
Deng Ai laughed out loud.
