"What a pity, I don't have something called a loudspeaker, otherwise I could have asked Zhuge Tian and the others to surrender right now."

Liu Bian said with a look of regret.

"Young Emperor, do you know what those things they call trumpets are made of?"

Huan Jie on the side asked curiously.

Zhang Xian also mentioned this kind of thing when his personal soldiers attacked the city last time.

It's so small that you can hold it in your hand, but the sound of your voice can be heard from far away.

Liu Bian: "..."

How could he possibly know how that thing works?

Just as he was about to speak, he heard a loud bang from the hillside.

I even felt like the ground was shaking.

"What... happened?" Huan Jie stared blankly at the mountain.

Could it be that there are still variables in today's game where we are sure to win?

Unfortunately, they didn't have a telescope. Although there were some flashlights on the mountain, they were far away and could only see some beams of light, but couldn't see what was happening above.

"Go and see what's happening!"

Liu Bian frowned, grabbed a personal soldier and pushed him.

"Yes, Young Emperor!"

The personal soldier rushed out on horseback and rushed back after a while.

"How? What happened?"

"There's... there's a tree that fell."

"A tree fell?" Huan Jie and Liu Bian were both puzzled.

Can a falling tree make such a big noise?

After all, both of them thought that Zhuge Tian and others might cut down trees for defense.

But how many trees can be cut down in such a hurry?

"It's... a really big tree." The guard didn't know how to describe it.

When he ran up, many soldiers were retreating. He also heard what those people said.

"It was a very large tree, with branches and leaves so dense that it blocked the path up the hillside."

"How did they get such a big tree?" Huan Jie was a little skeptical.

"I don't know. They say it killed or injured a lot of people when it fell. Then the road was blocked. To get through, you have to climb over that tree."

"But the people in Wolong Village had a lot of bows and arrows. Most of the climbers were shot the moment they showed their heads. And... there were also the young emperor's assassins. Many of them were killed by rockets. The trunk of the tree was still ablaze with fire, so it was even more difficult for others to get through."

"These people from Wolong Village are really a big trouble!"

Huan Jie sighed. He had thought that he had blocked them on this hill and that was a sure thing, but he hadn't expected there would be variables.

Liu Bian's face turned slightly red, but fortunately it was dark and no one could see it.

Where did the bows and arrows in Wolong Village come from?

All of them were seized from them during the day.

I didn't expect that it would be used by the soldiers of Wolong Village now.

"Humph!" Liu Bian snorted coldly, "That giant tree can only stop us for a while, but can it stop us forever?"

"Tell the soldiers to rest for a while before continuing the siege!"

If the two Zhuge Tian brothers do not surrender to him today, Liu Bian is determined to kill them here.

Only Huan Jie frowned. He learned from the retreating officers that in the previous round of attack, they had suffered almost 8,000 casualties.

The combat power can be said to have been halved.

If the obstacle of the giant tree is not removed, the remaining 10,000 people may not be able to defeat Zhuge Tian and his men!

Just then, the sound of horse hooves rang out.

Huan Jie initially thought that they were their retreating cavalry, but when they got closer, he found that the people looked familiar.

If it’s not Gan Ning and Zhao Yun from Wolong Village, who are they?

The two men rode Zhang Xianjun's war horses and started charging for a while. After discovering that Zhuge Tian and his men had cut down a big tree, these Zhang Xianjun began to retreat.

After they caught up with them, the other party thought they were together in the dark.

After retreating from the mountain, the two men identified the direction and rushed directly towards where Huan Jie and Liu Bian were.

"Stop them!" Huan Jie said while riding on his horse, pointing his whip in the direction where the two men were rushing towards him.

The soldiers around him rushed forward as ordered.

Only Liu Bian, seeing the two murderous men, silently dismounted and retreated back.

Having stayed in Wolong Village for several months, he knew too well the fighting strength of these two men.

He followed Zhang Jue in Xiliang for several years and saw many so-called warriors of the Hu people.

But compared to Zhao Yun and Gan Ning...

Well, Zhao Yun and Gan Ning can just say I want to fight ten of them.

Especially that Zhao Yun. Although he didn't see him with his own eyes, everyone who came back from Wolong Village last time said that he and Lu Bu fought for more than a hundred moves but it was difficult to determine the winner.

Liu Bian didn't think that the people around him could stop the two men.

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. It is better to step back and see the situation.

Zhao Yun and Gan Ning were surrounded by several cavalrymen of Zhang Xian's army. In just a few moments, these cavalrymen were killed by their swords and spears.

At this time, a man in armor rushed forward.

"I am Lü from Changsha..."

Before he could finish his words, Gan Ning hacked him to death.

"Lu what? You're not Lu Bu, why are you signing up for a title?"

In addition, a general from Zhao Yun's side also came up to him, but he was still no match for him.

The two men's horses collided, and the spear in the man's hand fell into Zhao Yun's hand, while he himself fell down holding his throat.

Zhao Yun held a gun in each hand, just like he was in the Wushuang mode.

In his eyes, these miscellaneous soldiers were indeed not worthy of him holding a gun with both hands.

The two spears were like two poisonous snakes.

As long as you get within a few meters of him, no one will survive.

The truth is that he was holding a grudge because he was captured while protecting Zhuge Liang.

Now that the enemies meet, they are naturally jealous of each other.

Huan Jie didn't take Zhao Yun and the other man seriously at first.

They failed to take down the wall of Wolong Village and did not fight much with Zhao Yun and his men.

So I had no idea how powerful they were.

Now he saw that the four or five generals under Zhang Xian, whom he had brought with him, were lying straight beside them.

And there was no one around him!

Only at this time did Huan Jie remember to run away.

But as soon as he turned around, the spear that Zhao Yun had snatched was thrown out directly and pierced into the neck of Huan Jie's horse from the side.

The warhorse fell to the ground without even a whine.

Huan Jie then fell to the ground, his feet pinned down by the dead horse, and he couldn't pull them out.

"Hehe, do you want me to help you?"

Gan Ning came to Huan Jie, grabbed his arm without saying anything and pulled him out.

Huan Jie cried out in pain, not knowing whether his hand or foot was broken.

I just felt unbearable pain in my hands and feet.

Then he was caught by Gan Ning.

"Your name is... Huan what?" Gan Ning looked at Huan Jie and thought for a moment, "Forget it, it doesn't matter. Whoever called you that, get out of here right now, otherwise this day next year will be the anniversary of your death."

Just as Huan Jie was about to speak, Gan Ning caught a glimpse of light from the corner of his eye and pulled Huan Jie over to block him.

There was a muffled sound of "poof".

Huan Jie was shot through by an arrow. The long arrow entered from the back of his waist and came out directly from his stomach.

Huan Jie looked at the arrow sticking out of his abdomen in some disbelief.

Turning around with difficulty, he saw Liu Bian, who had retreated into the crowd, commanding the others and shouting, "Shoot!"

Gan Ning and Zhao Yun did not expect that the other party would be so cruel.

Huan Jie should be one of the leaders of this battle. He actually shot him to death just like that.

At this time, Liu Bian was hiding in the crowd, and many arrows were shot at him. The two knew that it was difficult to rush forward, so they could only retreat.

Zhao Yun was an expert spearman, and he deflected all the stray arrows with his spear.

Gan Ning is not a technical expert and does not have such good skills.

He could only keep Huan Jie behind him.

While riding, I heard a puffing sound behind me.

After the two men retreated back to the mountain, Huan Jie had been shot like a hedgehog and it was obvious that he would not survive.

Gan Ning sighed and threw Huan Jie aside, then asked for some medicine and sprayed it on himself.

There are still some scratches just now.

"Huan Jie was captured, but unfortunately Liu Bian was so cruel that he shot Huan Jie to death."

Zhao Yun said to Zhuge Tian with some regret.

"It's okay, you've worked hard, eat something!"

Now no one was attacking them, and everyone could finally take a break.

There were more than 2,000 soldiers from Wolong Village, more than 20 of whom were killed and nearly 400 were injured.

Among them, more than 60 people were seriously injured.

This was the first time that Wolong Village had suffered such heavy casualties.

Zhuge Tian helped treat the wounds of the seriously injured soldiers and asked Lu Meng to take people to guard the place and inform him immediately if anything happened.

At this time, he finally felt a little regretful and thought he should have killed Liu Bian at that time.

Zhuge Liang seemed to see through his thoughts and said to him, "Brother, Liu Bian is most likely Zhang Jiao's puppet. Even if you kill him, Zhang Xian will still send troops to surround and kill us."

"This was their plan from the beginning. It's my fault for being careless and falling into their trap."

Zhuge Tian nodded, patted Zhuge Liang on the shoulder and said, "Let's not talk about this for now. After daybreak, I'm afraid the enemy will continue to attack the mountain. Is there any way?"

Zhuge Liang looked around and saw the war horses they had looted, but there were not many of them, probably only about 800 or so.

If we leave this hill and go on the flat ground, the enemy will mostly be cavalry, and it will be even more difficult to escape.

After thinking for a moment, Zhuge Liang said, "Since Liu Bian shot Huan Jie, the soldiers led by Zhang Xian must be quite dissatisfied with him. If we can take advantage of this..."

"Yes!" Zhuge Tian's eyes lit up and he asked Gan Ning beside him, "Where is Huan Jie's body?"

"I threw it in front. What's the problem? Is it still useful? It's all shot into a sieve."

"Go find it, it's useful."

"Useful? What for?" Gan Ning rushed back and forth and didn't want to move anymore.

"There's not enough food. Bring it to us!" Zhuge Tian rolled his eyes at him. "There are so many corpses in front of the battlefield. You're the only one who knows where they were thrown. Find them quickly."

"Okay!" Gan Ning reluctantly stuffed the pancake in his hand into his mouth, then stood up, patted his butt, and called two people to follow him.

After a while, Huan Jie was brought back.

"Should we pull out this arrow?" Gan Ning asked, looking at Huan Jie's back which looked like a porcupine.

"No, that's it!"

Zhuge Tian went over and fiddled with Huan Jie's corpse, which made Gan Ning feel nauseous. "You're not really going to eat it, are you?"

Zhuge Tian: “…”

He ordered Xu Chu to carry Huan Jie's body to the huge tree that had fallen on the hillside.

Zhuge Tian found a thick branch and hung Huan Jie on it.

Steel wires were hung on his hands and head using a pulley system.

Finally, a small speaker was hidden behind the shoulder of Huan Jie's corpse.

Now everyone understood that Zhuge Tian was planning to scare the other party by pretending to be a ghost, just like he did at the Kuaiji gold mine.

After all these arrangements were made, the sky was beginning to get light.

A faint white mist appeared between the mountains and forests, which made Zhuge Tian very satisfied.

He told the other soldiers from Wolong Village to stay away, and he and Liao Hua hid behind the branches of a giant tree so that people coming from below could not see them.

At this time, Gan Ning also ran over and said excitedly, "Let me play too!"

"Aren't you tired?" Zhuge Tian asked.

"Hey, look at what you're saying! For the victory of our Wolong Village, what does a little hardship and fatigue mean?"

Gan Ning looked at the steel ropes tied around the two men and asked, "How do you use these?"

Zhuge Tian pointed to one and said, "If you pull this one, Huan Jie will look up. The one on the left will turn his head to the left, and the one on the right will turn his head to the right."

In short, Huan Jie is now like a puppet, controlled by these steel wires.

These were the skills Zhuge Tian learned in the end times. He didn't expect that he would be able to do so much in the Three Kingdoms period.

Gan Ning and Liao Hua got acquainted with each other, one controlling Huan Jie's hands and the other controlling Huan Jie's head.

Then Zhuge Tian took out something similar to a periscope.

In the end times, no one knows what dangers may be around the corner, so this kind of mirror is an essential prop.

The three of them hid behind the trunk of a giant tree and used the mirror to look down the mountain.

"I'm coming!"

Just when Gan Ning was getting a little impatient, some figures finally appeared on the hillside.

It seems that Liu Bian did not give up.

The soldiers were about fifty or sixty meters away when they discovered that there was a person floating in the air.

Moreover, the man's clothes looked exactly like their military advisor Huan Jie.

Last night Liu Bian commanded his men to shoot Huan Jie to death, but many of Zhang Xian's troops did not know about it.

Liu Bian only said that it was Zhao Yun and Gan Ning who rushed down the mountain and directly killed Huan Jie.

He shot the arrow in order to keep the two of them.

I didn't expect that Gan Ning would use Huan Jie's body to block the arrows.

Many of the old men in Zhang Xian’s army had followed Huan Jie for many years, and when they saw him “floating in the air”, many of them stopped in their tracks.

"Damn it!" Liu Bian shouted from behind, "The dead are the greatest. Military Advisor Huan has already died in battle, and these people from Wolong Village are actually hanging his body here to humiliate him!"

"Everyone, charge! Avenge Military Advisor Huan!"

Most of Zhang Xianjun's leaders died this time, even Huan Jie was killed in battle, and many people began to think of retreating.

After hearing Liu Bian's instigation, he began to get restless again.

Huan Jie was a very good person to his soldiers and was also good at commanding the army.

That's why I dared to let Zhang Xian bring him along since he was ill this time.

Just as Zhang Xianjun's soldiers were about to charge, they saw Huan Jie's head, which was floating in the air, suddenly raised up and began to look around.

"Fuck, tell him to look to the right. Didn't you see that kid Liu Bian is on the right?"

Behind the tree trunk, Liao Hua whispered, "Look at that kid, so Han Xing and I can cooperate!"

So in the eyes of Zhang Xian's army and Liu Bian's foreign army at the foot of the mountain, Huan Jie suddenly looked at Liu Bian's position in the formation, then slowly raised his right hand and pointed at Liu Bian.

"It's you, Liu Bian! You killed me!"
