Double penetration: This Three Kingdoms has dragon energy

Chapter 92 The power of a third-grade intermediate scholar!

Outside Fenggao City, the camp of the coalition forces of the aristocratic families.

The atmosphere was so depressing that it seemed to be able to crush people to death.

Bao Xin's expression was no longer just a simple expression of being stabbed.

Instead, it felt like being stabbed countless times.

Yang Xin and Zang Jie's expressions were slightly better than his, but still very ugly.

Because the Zhuge family actually rejected their request for peace.

Not only did they reject the request for peace, the envoys they sent didn't even meet Zhuge Gui.

He was shot back right outside the city!
This undoubtedly shows that Zhuge is irreconcilable with them and is determined to fight to the end.

This has put them in a dilemma.

Let’s continue attacking Fenggao County. There is no hope of taking it down in a short time.

Give up attacking Fenggao County. With Zhuge clan holding them back, it will be difficult for them to let go and eliminate the Yellow Turbans in Mount Tai.

What a dilemma!
There was a hint of dissatisfaction in the eyes of Yang Xin and Zang Jie when they looked at Bao Xin.

In their view, Bao Xin should bear the main responsibility for the development of the war situation to this point.

If Bao Xin had not proposed to attack the Zhuge family first and let the Zhuge family remain neutral when they started the rebellion, they would have already eliminated the Yellow Turbans in Mount Tai by now, and could have turned around and allowed the Zhuge family to be eliminated.

Even if they chose to attack Zhuge first, it would be fine. If they could send envoys to persuade Zhuge to surrender and offer some benefits as soon as they arrived at Fenggao County, then Zhuge Gui, who was not prepared to defend the city due to the threat of the army outside the city, might surrender directly.

But in order to save face, Bao Xin chose to wait for Zhuge to send an envoy to surrender.

Thus, the best opportunity to quickly capture Fenggao County was missed.

Even if you miss this opportunity, there is still a chance to make amends.

If Bao Xin's ability could be stronger, he would be able to inflict heavy damage or great pressure on the defenders in the subsequent siege.

It can also force the Zhuge family to surrender.

But Bao Xin happened to have some ability, but not much.

Not only did they fail to inflict heavy damage on the Fenggao defenders, but instead made the Fenggao defenders more and more confident, and they took the coalition forces of the aristocratic families less and less seriously!
In short, Bao Xin made one wrong step after another, and very accurately avoided all the correct choices, successfully pushing the coalition forces of the aristocratic families into this dilemma.

He is simply the biggest piece of trash in the world!
Although they were complaining in their hearts, they were reluctant to say it out loud.

After all, we are still in the same camp and are now in the same boat. Now is not the time for internal strife.

So they could only secretly express their dissatisfaction with their eyes.

But they forgot that Bao Xin was not a person with strong psychological quality.

He is not a person who can remain calm in the face of praise or criticism.

He comes from a wealthy family, has a high opinion of himself, and is extremely sensitive.

He was already under tremendous psychological pressure from making so many mistakes, and when he saw the looks in their eyes, his mentality suddenly collapsed.

He roared angrily, suddenly drew the sword from his waist, and with one blow, he chopped the table in front of him in half. Then he roared like a madman, "Zhuge brat, how dare you insult me ​​like this? If I don't kill him, I swear I will not be a human being!

Come, tell the whole army to continue attacking the city, attack the city immediately, attack the city with the whole army, I will personally lead the troops to attack the city!

I will personally march into Fenggao County and chop off Zhuge Gui's head with my own hands to vent my hatred!"

Yang Xin and Zang Jie were both horrified when they saw Bao Xin had lost his mind.

Are you seeking death by attacking the city like this?

It doesn’t matter if you die, but don’t drag us down with you!

I hurried forward to stop him, but how could I stop him?

Seeing that Hongwen's Bao Xin was about to rush out of the tent and lead the troops to attack the city personally.

However, Bao Xin, who had lost his mind, eventually regained his sanity.

It was not the persuasion of Yang Xin and Zang Jie that worked, but rather that he received a letter from a member of the Bao family in Bao's Wu Castle.

The letter said that elite troops of the Yellow Turbans from Mount Tai appeared outside the Bao family's Wu Fort and had surrounded the Bao family's Wu Fort.

Bao's Wu Fort is in danger, please ask Bao Xin to lead the troops back to provide support immediately!

The huge crisis concerning the survival of the family finally made Hong Wen's Bao Xin regain his composure.

Then he immediately ordered the troops to withdraw and return to support Bao's Wu Fort.

Yang Xin and Zang Jie had no objection to withdrawing the troops.

Fenggao County could not be taken, and although it was impossible to reach an agreement with the Zhuge family, there was no point in staying outside Fenggao County.

Instead of doing this, it is better to retreat first.

However, it is a bit unrealistic to continue to eliminate the Yellow Turbans in Mount Tai without eliminating the Zhuge family and having already fallen out with the Zhuge family.

In this case, returning home is the best option at the moment.

They just had different opinions on which route to take home.

There are two roads from Fenggao County to Sanjiawu Fort.

One is to go through Mou County, go to Tai'an, and then return to Sanjiawu Fort.

This is the official road. Although the journey is long, it is relatively easy to travel. Moreover, the territories along the way are all within their sphere of influence, so it is relatively safe.

Previously, the three allied forces had taken this route to attack Fenggao County. They arrived at the city of Fenggao without anyone noticing, catching the Zhuge family off guard.

Retreating now and continuing on this path is undoubtedly the safest way.

The second option is to go into the mountains, then cross Yunshan Mountain and go straight to Sanjiawu Fort.

Yunshan is the fourth largest mountain in Taishan County.

Taishan County is mountainous. Except for the areas where the county towns are located, other places are basically mountains.

But mostly hills.

There are five truly large mountains that cover an area of ​​more than 100 miles in radius.

Ranked in order of height, they are Mount Tai, Mount Lu, Mount Meng, Mount Yun and Mount Ni.

Yunshan ranks fourth, but it is also a mountain covering an area of ​​more than 100 miles.

Instead of taking the normal official road, they crossed the mountains.

Even if this would reduce the total distance by more than a hundred miles, an average idiot probably wouldn't be able to make such a decision.

But Bao Xin made this decision anyway.

The reason why he made this decision was simple.

There are three reasons.

First, Bao's Wu Fort was being besieged by the elite Yellow Turban troops of Mount Tai, and he needed to rush back as soon as possible.

Not only is the official road far, but there is also no guarantee that one will not be sniped by the troops sent by the Yellow Turbans in Mount Tai, thus delaying time.

In comparison, crossing Yunshan seems more strenuous, but it takes less time and is more unexpected.

It can bypass the blocking troops that the Yellow Turbans of Mount Tai may send and reach Bao's Wu Fort directly.

Secondly, the soldiers of the aristocratic family coalition are all Taishan soldiers, and Taishan soldiers are best at mountain warfare, crossing mountains and ridges as if they were walking on flat ground!
For other troops, crossing a mountain like Yunshan is an almost impossible task.

But for the coalition forces of the aristocratic families, it was not a particularly difficult task!

Third, taking the Yunshan Road can effectively stop Zhuge's pursuit.

If they took the official road, there was no guarantee that Zhuge would not send pursuers to delay their actions.

Although it is not certain whether the Zhuge family has any connection with the Yellow Turbans in Mount Tai.

But judging from the Zhuge family's current performance, they will not let them leave Fenggao County easily.

By crossing Yunshan Mountain, only a small number of troops would be needed to guard the entrance to the mountain to stop Zhuge's pursuit.

It has to be said that when Bao Xin is calm, he can still make relatively rational judgments.

In fact, this is also the reason why Yang Xin and Zang Jie are willing to follow him as their leader.

Bao Xin successfully persuaded Yang Xin and Zang Jie, so that night he led 30,000 troops into the mountains and returned to Bao's Wu Fort.

……

The ghost road in Yunshan is like the throat of a giant beast.

The mountains on both sides rise from the ground, as steep and dangerous as if they were cut by a knife or an axe, as if they were barriers casually piled up by God in anger.

The path in the middle was spacious at first, but it could only accommodate three or two people walking side by side.

There were gravels everywhere underfoot, and I had to carefully consider every step, for fear that I would sprain my ankle if I stumbled.

Halfway through the journey, the mountain walls on both sides approached quietly like ghosts, like a pair of invisible giant hands, constantly squeezing the passage.

The narrowest part is only wide enough for one person to pass sideways!

Looking up at this moment, there was a strip of sky above my head, and the sunlight struggled to penetrate the cracks, casting a few rays of light.

The mountain walls on both sides are wet, I don’t know if it is dew condensed from the moisture in the mountains, or mysterious tears seeping from ancient times.

The mountain wind whistled past, and it seemed as if countless evil spirits were howling in my ears, which was creepy.

On one side is a cliff that reaches the sky and huge rocks may roll down at any time.

On the other side is a bottomless ravine that seems to hide endless demons and evil spirits.

With every step forward, I could hear my heartbeat like a drum, and the sound was infinitely amplified in this cramped space.

If you are not careful, you may touch the cold mountain wall, as if you can feel the malice contained in its dead silence.

This narrow passage seemed like a checkpoint set by fate, and every inch of it was filled with a chilling and dangerous atmosphere.

"Hiss, Bao Xin is really brave. He dares to leave in such a desperate situation?"

"I originally thought he was a cowardly and foolish person, a complete waste of resources."

"I didn't expect him to be so brave but not wise. It really impressed me!"

Ji Qiu stood above the Yunshan Ghost Road, looking at the steep mountain road under his feet, which had buried many lives, and couldn't help but marvel at it.

This is one of the three exits on the south side of Yunshan Mountain, and it is also the most dangerous one. It is also the road that Xizhong speculated that Bao Xin would take to lead the coalition forces of the aristocratic families out of the mountain.

Xi Zhong laughed and said, "My lord, you are wrong. We cannot say that Bao Xin is brave but not wise. He does have some ability.

It was quite unexpected that he could think of crossing Yunshan Mountain to return to Bao's Wu Castle, and even take the Yunshan Ghost Road to get out of the mountain.

If the Lord hadn't been in control of every move of this aristocratic coalition, even I wouldn't have been able to predict that he would take this path!"

When marching and fighting, intelligence comes first.

As a time traveler who has been deeply influenced by modern information warfare, Ji Qiu has always attached great importance to intelligence work.

For every battle he fought in the Dragon Qi Three Kingdoms, he would gather intelligence in advance so he could have a clear idea of ​​the situation. This time, in order to fight the aristocratic coalition, he even sent out his two top strategists, Guo Jia and Jia Xu, to gather intelligence.

And these two people did not disappoint him.

With the support of Ji Qiu's large amount of modern equipment and financial funding at all costs, they successfully established an intelligence network covering the entire Taishan County.

This intelligence network can even penetrate into the various aristocratic families in Taishan County and obtain a lot of intelligence information that outsiders would never know.

He also kept a close eye on every move of the Taishan family coalition.

Then Ji Qiu gathered this intelligence information and handed it over to Xi Zhong. Using Xi Zhong's innate secret technique of star deduction, he could determine the enemy's movements and predict them in advance.

"Do they have the ability? Not necessarily. All I can say is that mentally ill people have broad minds and many solutions to serious brain damage!
Choosing this route out of the mountains is a gamble.

The Taishan soldiers are good at mountain warfare and can cross mountains and ridges as if they were walking on flat ground.

However, no matter how good one is at mountain warfare, there is a limit. For example, the situation on the Yunshan Ghost Road is extremely dangerous even for the Taishan soldiers.

If we are ambushed here, even Taishan County will be left with no place to bury our bodies!" Ji Qiu shook his head.

He looked down upon Bao Xin's method of deploying troops, which placed all his hopes on luck. If he succeeded, he would go to heaven, and if he failed, he would go to hell. It was really too risky!

History has long proven that this kind of military adventurism is unacceptable.

Even if you are lucky enough to win once or twice, you will eventually lose all your money with profit next time.

War is a matter of great importance to a state, a matter of life and death, and the key to survival or destruction.

We should proceed step by step and act appropriately.

Xi Zhong said with a smile: "It is a great blessing for our army that our lord can understand this truth!

Comparing Bao Xin and his ilk to the Lord is like comparing a firefly to the bright moon; it's not worth mentioning!

"Haha, only Zhi can speak! Well, since Bao Xin is so eager to come to my door, I will accept his generous gift and send him to heaven!" Ji Qiu laughed.

Then they began to deploy troops and set traps.

The attack and defense of Fenggao lasted for three days, and it would take two days for Bao Xin to withdraw his troops across Yunshan Mountain. This time was not enough for Ji Qiu to transfer his troops over.

Even if officers at all levels were to use forced secret techniques on the troops, it would not work.

However, in addition to the forced secret technique, Ji Qiu also has a unique way of transporting troops.

That is the Space-Time Gate plus the Qiankun Bag!
I have to say that after getting the Qiankun Bag, the bonus to Ji Qiu's Space-Time Gate was really huge.

Ji Qiu's space-time gate has an inactivation function, so Ji Qiu cannot carry living things through the space-time gate, which puts a great restriction on him.

However, the Qiankun bag can create space inside to accommodate living things, but the Qiankun bag itself is not a living thing.

So after combining the Space-Time Gate with the Qiankun Bag, Ji Qiu gained the ability to instantly transport troops to a certain area.

Of course, this ability has limitations.

The biggest limitation is the ratio between the number of troops transported by the Qiankun Bag and the consumption of dragon energy.

I have to say, this thing really consumes a lot of dragon energy.

No wonder he was regarded as useless by the Yuan family and thrown to Yuan Huan to unify the Taishan family and the Taishan Yellow Turbans.

Ji Qiu had tried his best to shorten the time the troops stayed in the Qiankun bag, but he still used up all the dragon energy in his body after only transporting 40,000 troops.

You must know that the total amount of dragon energy in his body at this time is 2678 points.

Plus the 1400 points of dragon energy in the Taishan Prefect Seal.

The total amount of dragon energy he can use is 4078 points!
This is already a very considerable amount of dragon energy.

Even the first-grade peak dragon energy secret technique only requires 5120 points of dragon energy.

However, a first-grade advanced dragon energy secret technique only requires 3840 points of dragon energy!
Ji Qiu had to split the work into two days to transport all the troops over.

It should be mentioned here that the way to restore dragon energy is to refresh it on a daily basis.

At midnight every day, the dragon energy in the body will return to its full value and be used for the day.

Now that the troops have been transported here, we can naturally make our arrangements.

Ji Qiu deployed 70,000 new Yellow Turban troops on the high peaks on both sides, far away from the Yunshan Ghost Road.

These new Yellow Turban troops have almost no close combat capabilities and can only rely on modern firearms to kill the enemy. Keeping them away from Yunshan Ghost Road can not only ensure their output but also avoid being harmed by the coalition forces of the aristocratic families. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

Gao Shun's Xianzhen Camp, Wei Yan's Weiwu Camp, and Dian Wei's Personal Guard Camp were also placed near the Yunshan Ghost Road.

They were responsible for dealing with those Taishan soldiers who might rush out of the Yunshan Ghost Road and climb the stone walls on both sides.

Although the stone walls on both sides of the Yunshan Ghost Road are extremely steep, it is impossible for any troops to climb up under normal circumstances.

But we must be prepared for everything, after all, the Taishan soldiers are one of the four most powerful mountain armies in Hannei County.

Who knows what amazing performances will come?

The only ones who did not directly participate in the battle were the two thousand Xiliang cavalrymen in the cavalry battalion.

After all, they really can't fight mountain battles.

So Ji Qiu kept them as a reserve.

Respond to emergencies.

Once everything is set up, all that's left to do is wait.

So I watched time slowly pass by.

The Golden Crow descended to the ground, the Jade Rabbit rose in the east, and it was gradually midnight.

After midnight, the dragon energy that has been consumed in the body is instantly restored.

Feeling the dragon energy filling his body, Ji Qiu couldn't help but nod secretly.

Today's dragon energy has been refreshed, and he has another trump card!
Continue to wait, and after about half an hour, a long snake made up of starlight appeared at the end of the distant mountain road.

The Taishan family coalition has finally arrived!
Ji Qiu took out a high-magnification military infrared telescope to check the status of the coalition forces of the aristocratic families.

Then he was surprised to find that the coalition forces of the aristocratic families were in quite good condition.

After two consecutive days and nights of mountain marches, crossing the thousand-meter-high Yunshan Mountain, the army still maintained a basically intact formation and relatively high morale.

This shows the elite strength of the coalition forces of the aristocratic families!
Ji Qiu couldn't help but sigh again at the power of the aristocratic families in the world of Dragon Qi Three Kingdoms.

These are just the private soldiers of the three aristocratic families in Taishan County. Looking at the aristocratic families in the entire Han Dynasty, they can't even be ranked!

But it has such strength.

Ji Qiu has a long way to go if he wants to dominate the Three Kingdoms of Longqi!

“But the long road ahead is as hard as iron, but now I can start over again!”

“No matter how big the pie is, as long as you eat it bite by bite, there will be a day when you have eaten it all!”

"Start enjoying this cake from today!"

Ji Qiu chuckled, then watched the coalition of aristocratic families step by step into the Yunshan Ghost Road.

When the allied forces of the noble families entered the Yunshan Ghost Road, he picked up the intercom and gave the order to Xu He, the commander-in-chief of the Yellow Turban New Army: "Open fire!"

Xu He received the order and ordered without hesitation: "Open fire!"

So the Yellow Turban New Army hidden on the steep cliffs on both sides suddenly woke up like dormant poisonous snakes.

Sixty thousand Type 56 automatic rifles spewed out dazzling flames almost at the same time.

Dense bullets poured down like a rainstorm onto the narrow Yunshan Ghost Road.

Suddenly, a sharp whistle that tore through the air was heard on the mountain road. Before the Taishan soldiers wearing leather armor and holding ring-handled swords could react, they were knocked to the ground by the sudden hail of bullets.

Blood splattered on the chests of the soldiers in the front row, and their screams mixed with the sound of metal clashing echoed in the valley.

Those fine leather armors were like thin paper in front of high-speed bullets and were easily penetrated, and blood dyed the bluestone road red.

Immediately afterwards, yellow-green melon grenades streaked across the sky and fell into the formation of the coalition forces of the aristocratic families with a sharp sound of breaking through the air.

"Boom! Boom!" Violent explosions sounded one after another, and air waves carried gravel and limbs into the sky.

Amidst the thick smoke, the soldiers of the coalition forces of the aristocratic families fled in panic, but were trapped in the narrow mountain roads. The crowded crowds made them better targets.

Xu He looked coldly at the tragic situation on the mountain road and activated the innate secret technique of "Ten Thousand Armies United" to increase the coordination of the Yellow Turban New Army by 30%.

Then he constantly adjusted the shooting direction of the Yellow Turban New Army soldiers to ensure that he could cause maximum damage to the coalition forces of the aristocratic families.

The soldiers of the Yellow Turban New Army skillfully changed magazines and poured fire into the chaotic enemy group.

The ring-handled swords that the coalition of aristocratic families were proud of were now completely useless.

Faced with modern firearms that are ahead of their time, they can only wait for death in despair.

The once-mighty Taishan soldier secrets are almost useless under the saturation attack of modern firearms!

But the battle did not end there, because this was not a historical world, but the Dragon Qi Three Kingdoms!

At the critical moment when the aristocratic family coalition was facing life and death, Bao Xin took action.

On the mountain road where smoke and wailing were intertwined, Bao Xin suddenly soared into the air, and a cyan-gold dragon-shaped shadow appeared around him.

He formed seals with his hands, muttering something to himself. As the spells were performed, two completely different dragon energy mystical techniques erupted simultaneously.

"As light as a swallow!"

"Solid as a rock!"

In an instant, a strange light enveloped the soldiers of the aristocratic family coalition.

They were originally in a panic due to the terrain and fire suppression, but their speed suddenly increased several times. It seemed as if their feet were walking on the wind. They were able to walk on the steep cliffs as if it were flat ground, and then climbed up at an incredible speed.

At the same time, a layer of solid shield emerged from their body surface, making their bodies under the leather armor as hard as black iron.

The bullets whizzed in and hit them, leaving only shallow dents, or bounced off directly with a crisp "clang" sound.

The soldiers' screams stopped abruptly. They reorganized their formation under the hail of bullets, with a fierce light of turning defeat into victory in their eyes, and launched a charge towards the new army occupying the high ground.

Bao Xin stood in mid-air, dragon energy surging around him, a sneer on his lips: "Who are you, the lowly fellow, to ambush me? You really don't know how to live or die!"

"Is this the third-grade intermediate secret technique of Light Body and Rock? It really is quite powerful!"

Ji Qiu looked at Bao Xin, who was standing in the air with an imposing manner, but there was no surprise on his face.

The third-rank scholar is a high-level scholar. The quality of the dragon energy in his body far exceeds that of the middle and low-rank scholars, so he has the ability to fly in the air.

But Bao Xin is an old scoundrel who has been hiding his true intentions.

He possessed the cultivation of a third-rank intermediate scholar, but he never showed it in public, not even when he attacked Fenggao.

But even so, it cannot be hidden from Ji Qiu.

Because the intelligence network built by Guo Jia and Jia Xu is not just for show.

They had already found out Bao Xin's background.

Not only do they know that he is a third-grade intermediate scholar, they also know that he possesses two third-grade intermediate secret techniques: light body and rock!
