How did I, a mere son-in-law lying down, become a "Fenglang Juxu" (a legendary martial art

When encountering narrow mountain roads, Liu Shan would first send scouts to investigate and ensure safety before allowing the main force to pass.

When encountering areas shrouded in miasma, he would direct his troops to detour or wait for the miasma to dissipate before continuing their advance, depending on the wind direction and the concentration of the miasma.

Nevertheless, dangers continued to arise.

The following day, as the Longxiang Army was traversing a dense jungle, they were suddenly attacked by a swarm of poisonous bees.

These venomous bees were enormous and extremely poisonous, their buzzing sound like thunder, instantly enveloping the Longxiang Army.

The soldiers panicked and scattered in all directions.

Upon seeing this, Liu Shan immediately shouted loudly, instructing the soldiers to cover their heads and bodies with their clothing and not to run around.

He quickly pulled out a special herb from his pocket; when lit, the smoke it emitted could repel poisonous bees.

Under Liu Shan's command, the soldiers gradually calmed down and successfully escaped the attack of the poisonous bees.

Shortly thereafter, as the Longxiang Army was advancing along a mountain path, the scouts ahead suddenly noticed some strange marks in the roadside bushes.

Upon learning this, Liu Shan led Han Chengjia forward to investigate.

Based on his sect's unique experience, Han Chengjia judged that this was a trigger-based trap.

He carefully cleared away the surrounding weeds and discovered a spiked trap hidden underground.

If the Longxiang Army advances rashly, some soldiers will inevitably be injured.

Liu Shan immediately ordered the Longxiang Army to halt their advance, mark the location of the traps, and then detour around them.

As they ventured deeper into the Ten Thousand Mountains, the resistance of the barbarian soldiers grew increasingly fierce, and ambushes became more and more frequent.

When the Longxiang Army marched into a valley, shouts of battle suddenly rang out all around, and barbarian soldiers rushed down from the hillsides on both sides of the valley.

They held the high ground and took advantage of the terrain, raining down arrows.

Liu Shan quickly surveyed the surrounding environment and discovered a megalithic formation in the valley. He immediately ordered the Longxiang Army to move towards the megalithic formation.

They used the boulders as cover to avoid the arrows of the barbarian soldiers.

At the same time, he organized archers to launch a counterattack and suppress the barbarian soldiers' offensive.

During the battle, Liu Shan discovered that the barbarian soldiers' attacks were mainly concentrated on the front, so he decisively sent out a surprise force to circle around to the rear of the barbarian soldiers and launch a surprise attack.

This surprise attack force moved swiftly and silently, approaching the barbarian army's rear before launching a sudden attack.

The barbarian soldiers were caught off guard by this sudden attack and their formation was thrown into chaos.

Seeing that the time was right, Liu Shan led the main force of the Longxiang Army to launch a frontal assault, attacking from both sides and successfully repelling the barbarian ambush.

Not long after, when the Longxiang Army was crossing a river, the barbarian soldiers dropped a large number of trees and boulders upstream in an attempt to block the river and drown the Longxiang Army.

Liu Shan noticed the unusual water flow in advance and quickly ordered his soldiers to stop crossing the river. He also had the Longxiang Army cut down trees to make simple rafts and pontoon bridges.

When the barbarian soldiers' trees and boulders came crashing down, the rafts and pontoon bridges acted as a buffer, reducing the impact.

Liu Shan then organized the Longxiang Army to clear the river channel to ensure a safe crossing.

During the crossing, the barbarian soldiers constantly harassed and attacked from the riverbank. Liu Shan arranged for archers to provide cover while speeding up the crossing. In the end, they successfully crossed the river and escaped the barbarian attacks.

After crossing the river, Liu Shan summoned his generals to carefully study the ambush tactics and characteristics of the barbarian soldiers. They discovered that the barbarian soldiers were good at using the terrain to hide in the dark and launch surprise attacks, and that their attacks often had a certain regularity.

Based on these characteristics, Liu Shan formulated a series of countermeasures.

He ordered the Longxiang Army to strengthen their observation of the surrounding environment during the march and to look for any trace of the barbarian soldiers.

At the same time, he changed the marching route and adopted tactics such as flanking maneuvers and infiltration, making it difficult for the barbarian soldiers to track the whereabouts of his troops.

When ambushed, he instructed Longxiang Army to remain calm and respond swiftly according to the pre-arranged plan, without panicking.

Through continuous adjustments and adaptations, the Longxiang Army gradually mastered the skills of mountain warfare, enabling them to calmly deal with ambushes by barbarian soldiers and reduce casualties.

After a difficult journey and numerous battles, Liu Shan led the Longxiang Army step by step closer to the core stronghold of the Southern Barbarians.

Not far from the core stronghold, Liu Shan ordered his troops to halt their advance, set up camp, and rest.

Liu Shan stood in front of the tent, his gaze fixed solemnly on the distant Nanman stronghold hidden deep in the mountains and forests.

He then summoned all his generals to the main tent to discuss the battle plan in detail.

Based on the intelligence he had gathered earlier, he analyzed the terrain and fortifications of the Nanman stronghold.

The Nanman's stronghold was located in a valley surrounded by mountains, in a strategically important and dangerous location.

The valley entrance is narrow, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and is equipped with numerous checkpoints and traps.

The lair was fortified with sturdy wooden fences and stone walls, and was guarded by a large number of barbarian soldiers.

Liu Shan decided to adopt a tactic of splitting up and attacking simultaneously.

He divided the Longxiang Army into three routes. One route, which he personally led, attacked the entrance to the valley from the front, drawing away the main force of the Southern Barbarians.

The second route, led by Han Chengjia, took a detour along a small path on the side of the valley to launch a surprise attack on the rear of the Southern Barbarians. The third route, commanded by Lü Ding, served as a reserve force, ready to provide support at any time.

Once the battle plan was finalized, the Longxiang Army began its operation.

Liu Shan led his main force to the entrance of the valley, where they found a heavily fortified checkpoint with barbarian soldiers armed and ready for battle.

At Liu Shan's command, the Longxiang Army launched an attack.

In an instant, shouts of battle filled the air as the two sides engaged in a fierce fight.

Taking advantage of the favorable terrain and strong fortifications, the barbarian soldiers fought desperately.

Their arrows rained down on the Longxiang Army, causing considerable casualties.

Upon seeing this, Liu Shan immediately ordered the Longxiang Army to raise their shields, form a shield wall, and slowly advance forward.

At the same time, he organized archers to counterattack and suppress the arrows from the southern barbarians.

Soon, Liu Shan discovered that a section of the wooden fence on the right side of the Nanman checkpoint was rather weak.

He immediately ordered a portion of his soldiers to concentrate their firepower on the wooden fence, while he led his elite troops, preparing to rush in quickly after the fence was breached.

After a fierce attack, the Longxiang Army finally broke through the wooden fence.

Liu Shan took the lead and led his soldiers into the fray.

When the barbarian soldiers saw that their defenses had been breached, they immediately panicked.

But they quickly reorganized under the old barbarian king's command and launched a counterattack.

At this time, Han Chengjia's outflanking force also successfully reached the rear of the Nanman's lair.

Taking advantage of the fact that the main force of the Southern Barbarians was drawn to Liu Shan on the front, they launched a sudden attack.

The rear of the Southern Barbarians was immediately thrown into chaos. Han Chengjia's troops moved in as if they were in an empty field, quickly destroying important facilities such as the Southern Barbarian granaries and armories.

The old barbarian king was extremely anxious upon learning that his rear had been attacked.

He hurriedly diverted some troops to support the rear, but this resulted in a weakening of the forces on the front line.

Liu Shan seized this opportunity and intensified his attack, and the Longxiang Army gradually gained the upper hand.
