The Super Summoning System of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1174 Gao Xianzhi's Countermeasure
"Kill!"

Following Gao Xianzhi's order, the cavalry behind them got off their horses one after another, carrying the siege ladder, avoiding the arrows shot down from the sword pavilion and preparing to attack the sword pavilion.

A ladder leaned against the wall of the Jiange Pass, and the soldiers began to climb the ladder.

After closing Yang Jizhou, Ma Zhong and Ma Zhong directed the soldiers back and forth to resist.

Arrows, rolling stones, and hot golden juice poured down from the city gate.

The soldiers of the Yizhou Army climbed the ladder with all their strength, avoiding all kinds of offensives.

After finally climbing to the upper level of the ladder, all of a sudden, the soldiers felt that their footsteps were empty, and the steps of the ladder broke suddenly. The soldiers were caught off guard and fell from the ladder, smashing the soldiers behind them as well.

This kind of situation didn't just happen on a pair of ladders. Basically, the dozens of ladders that Meng Gong gave to Gao Xianzhi were broken by the climbing soldiers.

The step on the ladder broke, and the ladder was also broken. Naturally, it was impossible to attack the city, and the soldiers who attacked the Jiange retreated one after another.Hundreds of corpses were left lying in the Jiange Pass forever.

"What's going on, why is the ladder broken?" Gao Xianzhi, who supervised the battle in the rear, shouted in a deep voice as he watched the soldiers fleeing back in a panic.

"General, I risked my life to retrieve a piece of ladder, look!" A soldier took out a piece of wood and handed it to Gao Xianzhi.

Gao Xianzhi quickly took the wooden stick and took a look, he saw that on both sides of the wooden stick, there were mostly regular saw marks, and a few were uneven broken marks.This shows that most of the steps on the ladder were sawed off in advance, so after the soldiers stepped on the ladder, they were easily broken.

Gao Xianzhi looked at the stepping on the ladder that had been tampered with in his hand, his face darkened immediately, and he said coldly, "Who took care of the military equipment last night, who did it!"

The deputy general cupped his hands and said: "General, the last general is in charge! I took care of it myself last night, and no one approached at all. You can trust the last general!"

"Bah! Why is there sand in this dry food!"

"Ouch, this water is full of yellow mud!"

"Who did this?"

"How can I eat this?"

"How can I drink this water!"

Suddenly, the voices of soldiers cursing came from behind Gao Xianzhi. It turned out that these soldiers were tired after rushing to the Jiange all the way, and they wanted to eat some dry food and drink water to relieve fatigue.

Gao Xianzhi's complexion changed, and he stepped forward to snatch the pancake from the soldier's hand, took a bite, and it squeaked when he ate it, but it was just the flour mixed with sand, which couldn't be seen on the surface, only when he ate it. .

He snatched another water bag and poured out the water in it, only to see that it was full of muddy yellow muddy water, and he couldn't drink it at all. Many soldiers who drank it were still retching.

"Who killed a thousand knives did this!" the lieutenant yelled.

Seeing this, Gao Xianzhi still didn't understand. With a gloomy face, he gritted his teeth and said, "I'm afraid Meng Gong has already betrayed, I'll just wait!"

The deputy general was shocked, and asked quickly: "General, are you saying that Meng Gong did all this?"

Gao Xianzhi said in a deep voice: "The ladder, the dry food, and the clear water were all given to us by Meng Gong. The ladder can be destroyed last night, and the clear water can also be filled with loess last night. But the dry food, the sand is in it, obviously it was time to make it. Just added it, who else could it be if it wasn't Meng Gong?"

The lieutenant general's face changed drastically: "Meng Gong has betrayed? Isn't Jiameng Pass..."

Gao Xianzhi smiled angrily: "It's really a good plan. Taking advantage of General Sima's eagerness to take back the Jiange, he deliberately wrote to the general to ask him to send troops to take back the Jiange. In this way, our army will move forward lightly, without food and supplies, and rely on Jiameng for everything." Close the supply. Then he fiddled with the food and supplies, and closed Jiameng. We are located between the two passes, surrounded by mountains, and the only way is to close your eyes and wait for death."

The deputy general shouted: "Let's go back to Jiameng Pass and kill Meng Gong!"

Gao Xianzhi shook his head again and again and said: "Jiameng Pass has been closed long ago, the danger is not much worse than Jiange, and there are three thousand defenders, how can we get back?"

"Then let's return to Hanzhong from the mountain road?"

"The mountain road is rugged. If you want to return to Hanzhong, you will have to climb over the mountains for more than a month. We have no food and grass, how can we go back?" Gao Xianzhi said with a sigh.

When the Jiange was closed, Yang Jizhou also guessed that Gao Xianzhi might have realized that he was in a desperate situation, so he said loudly: "Gao Xianzhi, now you are trapped between the two barriers and in a desperate situation, why don't you surrender?"

The deputy general was overjoyed when he heard the words, and said: "General, why don't we feign surrender and take the opportunity to seize the Jiange?"

Gao Xianzhi shook his head repeatedly, and said: "It doesn't work. If we surrender, the Han general will definitely ask us to put down our weapons and enter the customs, and will strictly guard us. In this way, if we want to seize the Jiange, the soldiers will not listen to us. Surrender will be a sham." Really surrendered."

"In this way, besides surrendering, isn't there a dead end for us?" The deputy general couldn't help feeling a little desperate when he heard Gao Xianzhi say this.

"Don't panic, I have a solution!" Gao Xianzhi patted the lieutenant on the shoulder and said.

The deputy general was overjoyed and said: "The general has a solution? What solution?"

Gao Xianzhi murmured: "I remember when General Sima called me, he also called General Lu Guang. I don't know what General Sima said to Lu Guang, but I can guess it. He must have asked General Lu Guang to lead the main infantry. We will come back later, as long as we persist for a while, we can wait for General Lu Guang to lead his troops over."

The deputy general worried: "But we have no food and grass. General Lu Guang led the infantry here. Even if we set off the next day after the general set off, it would take fifteen days at the earliest to reach Jiameng Pass. We have no food at all. Can we Persist for half a month?"

Gao Xianzhi said in a deep voice: "We have horses, and one person can eat them for 20 days. If Lu Guang arrives within [-] days, there will be more. Let's find a place with water to set up camp, and then kill the horses." For food, wait for General Lu Guang to arrive, attack Jiameng Pass before and after, and then join forces to go south to take Jiange!"

When the deputy general heard Gao Xianzhi's method, he was overjoyed and said: "The general is really wise, if I encounter this kind of situation, I'm afraid I will die."

Facing the compliment from the lieutenant general, Gao Xianzhi's face remained calm, he waved his hands and said, "Quickly lead a light cavalry to find a suitable place to set up camp. When you find it, come back and report to me immediately. I will line up here to avoid The Han army took the opportunity to attack!"

Soon, the deputy general found a suitable place to set up camp.Backed by the mountain, there is a gentle highland at the foot of the mountain, and the river in front is suitable for going down to the village.

So Gao Xianzhi led [-] cavalry to set up camp here, cut down trees, took clean water from the river, and killed horses if there was no food.I hope to use this to support for a while, waiting for Lu Guang's arrival.

The movement from Gao Xianzhi's side soon reached the ears of Yang Jizhou and Meng Gong through the scouts.
