December has not passed, but at the end of the month, a sudden heavy snow fell on the earth. Compared to last year, this year's heavy snow was half a month earlier. After a heavy snow, the Longshan Mountains, which were burned by the fire a month ago, were covered in the white snow. It seemed that the heavens pity the terrible appearance of Longshan, so they put on a white coat.

This snow took three consecutive days, with deep snow. The Wei army launched a long-suppressed attack on Longshan on the first night of heavy snowfall. However, the Qing army was prepared for a fierce confrontation, and finally the Wei army retreated again.

The Qing army did not dare to take it lightly every moment, and always paid attention to the joint Wei army positions at the foot of the mountain. The low neighing of the horses at the foot of the mountain came up to the mountain day and night.

Since the fire of Longshan, the two sides have been in a stalemate for more than a month. Although the Wei army's several attacks did not take down Longshan, the three fortifications built by the Qing army spent countless energy to build at the foot of the mountain had been destroyed by the Wei people. The first one was also damaged. Perhaps after two more impacts, the second fortification would be completely destroyed.

If it weren't for the sudden outbreak of this heavy snow, perhaps the second fortification would have been destroyed within these few days.

The Wei people burned Longshan Mountain in fire, and thought it was a wonderful plan at that time. When the fire in Longshan was burning, almost all the Wei soldiers believed that Longshan was already in their hands.

Therefore, all the Wei soldiers at that time fully demonstrated the bravery of the Wei people and charged up the mountain.

But because of this, after that battle, they suddenly realized that their excitement made them miss a huge opportunity.

At that time, in order to lure the Wei army up the mountain, the defenders of the three fortifications all pretended to be scattered. In the eyes of the Wei people, it was a disintegration, so they even more determined that they charged towards Longshan, and they never thought that they would destroy the fortifications in advance.

Moreover, Shang Zhongli is a first-class defensive general. The fortifications are so strong and complex that they are also very powerful. Even if they want to destroy them, it will take a long time.

The Wei army was in a hurry, and morale fell to the bottom and retreated across the board. If Sima Qingtian had not been the one who personally led the iron horse to stabilize the position, the consequences would have been unimaginable. However, after a hasty retreat, he would have never thought that he would occupy the defensive position of the Qing army.

The Wei army withdrew and the Qing army counterattacked, and regained control of several fortifications at the foot of the mountain, and the Wei army also missed the best opportunity to damage the fortifications.

...

Shang Zhongli was good at guarding and was famous all over the world. His biggest study in his life was the construction of defensive positions.

There are three fortifications at the foot of Longshan Mountain, and each fortification is an extremely complex position.

You should first dig a deep channel. After the deep channel, there are inverted pointed wood, which is obliquely tilted outward. The top of the pointed wood is like a gun, followed by a stone wall made of large stones, and then a giant wood fence. Bowmen are deployed behind the fence, connecting layer by layer to form a solid fortification.

Facing such fortifications, cavalry impact is simply impossible.

The three consecutive fortifications are breathtakingly defended by amazing.

After the fire burned Longshan Mountain, the Wei army stabilized its position and in the past month, it has continuously attacked the defensive positions. The Wei people were brave and extremely brave, and they actually destroyed the first line of defense, and the first line of defense has been controlled by the Wei army.

The second line of defense was already broken under the impact of the Wei army. Although the Qing army was still holding on, everyone knew in their hearts that this second fortification could no longer withstand the Wei army's several impacts.

The Wei people paid a very heavy price for more than a month of attack.

But Sima Qingtian also knew very well that Shang Zhongli's bet was pressing on Longshan. The saint general of Qing's country completely brought out his defensive essence in Longshan under the domestic and foreign troubles of Qing.

Either keep the Wei army out of Longshan, or...!

Sima Qingtian knew very well that the Battle of Longshan was actually a decisive battle for Wei Qing. Whoever wins this war will control the entire strategic situation.

The elite troops of the Qing army gathered in Longshan. Once they were captured, it would be difficult for the Qing Kingdom to have strong resistance to resist the pace of the Wei army's iron cavalry advancing to the capital.

So he tried to take down Longshan at all costs.

Although the Qing army is still sticking to it and the other side seems very tenacious, Sima Qingtian knows very well that the Northern Barbarians attack from the northern front line. As long as they hold on, civil unrest will occur in Qing's country with time and unstable defenses. Can Shang Zhongli and Longshan defenders really concentrate on facing the strong attack of the Wei army?

He is waiting!

The two armies were in a stalemate in Longshan. Whoever could persevere to the end would be the strong one.

...

The heavy snow is still floating in the air. It is the third day. At dusk, the sky and the earth are dark, the cold wind is bleak, and everything is also in the ice and snow, becoming depressed and silent.

The two armies confronted each other hundreds of thousands of troops, but the camps on both sides were extremely quiet. Only the white snowflakes were falling in the world, covering the blood on the earth.

Lin Chengfei is a tiger general trained by Shang Zhongli, and is also known as the "Three Beast Generals" Tiger Thunderbolt.

He led his army to defend Nanyang Pass to the death. Although Nanyang Pass was still broken in the end, it was already moving the world for such a long time. His martial arts name has spread all over the world. After Nanyang Pass was broken, he led the few remaining remnants of the Nanyang Pass defenders to retreat to Longshan and reunited with Shang Zhong. Now he is also the second person on the Longshan front, besides Shang Zhongli.

Stepping on the deep snow on the mountain, Lin Chengfei was covered in armor and walked tiredly towards a stone tower not far ahead.

His armor was already very damaged. Since the Wei army began to attack Nanyang Pass, until today, his armor has almost never left his body, and the blood on the scales of the armor has dark red.

Walking past a wooden fence, beside the wooden fence, the Qing army soldiers either sat or stood, approaching each other to keep warm. However, the cold weather made everyone feel unwilling to talk and chat.

Seeing Lin Cheng flying over, dozens of defenders in this short section immediately stood up.

Lin Chengfei's reputation has spread all over the world, and the hearts of these soldiers were full of awe. Although everyone was tired, when they saw this fierce general passing by, the soldiers still stood up and expressed their respect to the general.

Lin Chengfei is in his thirties, strong and powerful, and has a clear edge of his face, showing his courage and calmness. When those eyes see these soldiers, a hint of warmth suddenly appears.

He saw one of the soldiers, his eyes lit up and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The soldier was only fifteen or sixteen years old and looked very young, but his sharp eyes, indifferent expression, and two scars on his face showed that he was already a veteran on the battlefield.

"Are you Fan Hu'er?" Lin Chengfei walked to the soldier and asked with a smile: "You kid are alive too?"

The young soldier said excitedly when he heard Lin Chengfei call out his name, and said in surprise: "General... still remember me?"

Lin Chengfei patted the soldier on the shoulder and smiled and said, "How could you not remember? You followed me to retreat from Nanyang Pass. I remember that when the Wei army attacked Linyang Pass, you shot three arrows in a row, and actually killed three Wei soldiers... Great, I will never forget such a warrior."

The young soldier touched his head and looked very honest and embarrassed.

But the soldiers next to him were immediately in awe.

There were 20,000 defenders in Nanyang Pass, but in the end there were less than 3,000 people. These 3,000 people were pushed to Longshan and mixed into various battalions.

Those who retreated from Nanyang Pass were respected by the Longshanyuan garrison. After all, they were all brothers who retreated from bloody battles, and everyone was a warrior. When Fan Hu'er first formed this team, he naturally received everyone's respect, but no one knew that this young archer had shot three Wei soldiers in a row. When Lin Chengfei mentioned it, everyone naturally respected it to the extreme.

"What's going on with the wound on your face?"

Fan Hu'er smiled silly and said, "When retreating from Nanyang Pass, the people of Wei were chasing me from behind. I was anxious at that time and turned around and shot a few more arrows, trying to block them, and two people were killed. However... their archers also shot arrows, and their faces were cut by their bows and arrows...!"

Lin Chengfei laughed and said, "God still has eyes. If it were someone else, the first arrow would only cut the face, it would be a blessing from the Bodhisattva. Both arrows of the other party would only cut your face, and you will be lucky!"

Fan Hu'er laughed and the soldiers around him laughed. In the cold snow, everyone felt a hint of warmth appear on their cold bodies.

"Everyone is alive!" Lin Chengfei glanced at the soldiers, "When he defeated the Wei people, he would be rewarded in terms of merit and rewarded, and he would all be an official, and would shine his ancestors!"

One of the soldiers couldn't help asking, "General, can we... really survive? Can we really drive the Wei people back to their hometown?"

Lin Chengfei nodded with certainty: "Of course. We will all be alive, and we can all go home... The Holy General is with us. As long as the Holy General is here, the Wei people cannot cross this Longshan step!"

Seeing Lin Chengfei's confident expression, these soldiers seemed to have great confidence.

Lin Chengfei patted Fan Hu'er's shoulder lightly again, then glanced at the dozens of soldiers, and said with a smile: "Brothers, after this battle, I will take you to Thyme in the capital to drink... There are beautiful women there, you can get as much as you want... But remember, you must live, otherwise those women will only be enjoyed by others!"

Everyone suddenly became excited, clenched their fists together, thinking to themselves: "Fight this battle as soon as possible, live...for the sake of fine wine and women..."
