Ouyang Shuo's arrival has given Guiping a dose of heart-warming agent.

Although the Shenwu Guards he brought were less than 3,000, they were a truly invincible army. They had experienced countless battles of all sizes and sizes, but they had no defeat.

Neither the fierce Jiangdong warrior nor the strange Chiyou Blood Guard made this army fall down.

Each member of the Shenwu Guard has been promoted to the twelve-level elite soldiers of hundreds of battles, reaching the limit that a soldier can reach. His individual combat power is enough to be comparable to that of a junior general or even an intermediate general.

Ouyang Shuo was confident that even with the Shenwu Guard, he could defend the pass for one day.

Behind Guiping Pass, two independent divisions of the mountain barbarians are rushing to reinforce. In addition, the Leopard Legion led by Han Xin is probably only two days away from Guiping Pass.

The coalition's attempt to take down Guiping Pass is probably going to be a vague one.

...

Ouyang Shuo led his troops into the pass. When he saw the scene on the city wall, his eyes twitched. He saw countless mountain barbarian warriors lying in pools of blood, unable to count them at all.

Countless arrows were inserted into the corpse.

The four independent divisions of the mountain barbarians planned by Ouyang Shuo broke a pillar before they had obtained the official number. I am afraid that even the coalition forces would not have thought about what kind of damage their operation would cause to Shanhai City.

Obviously, the mountain barbarian warriors have reached the most difficult time.

Therefore, without any greetings, Shenwuwei immediately attacked and took his position one by one as soon as he climbed the city wall, making up for the defensive gap left by the mountain barbarians, and fighting with the coalition forces.

Even Ouyang Shuo didn't say anything, so he pulled out the Chixiao sword from his waist and stood up. Even though he didn't say a word, he was using the most direct actions to boost morale and inspire the soldiers to fight bravely.

"Mr.!"

"Master!"

With the appearance of Ouyang Shuo, bursts of cheers kept ringing above the city, one after another. The soldiers shouted the name of the king and marquis and rushed forward fearlessly.

Just as Ouyang Shuo arrived at Guiping Pass, the blood-colored vortex on the top of the pass was shocked. A huge blood-colored dragon suddenly arrived and directly suppressed the huge vortex.

The blood-colored vortex stopped rotating immediately.

Suddenly, an invisible luck came to the warriors in Shanhai City as they looked under their heads.

If someone is interested in observing carefully, he will be shocked to find that at this moment, more than half of the tens of thousands of arrows shot out by the coalition forces quietly changed their trajectory, causing the target to fail.

In a moment, the casualties of the soldiers dropped sharply.

And this is the manifestation of luck.

In the battle of Guiping Pass, the war situation took a sharp turn for the worse due to the timely appearance of the Shenwu Guard. Although the coalition forces still had the upper hand, Li Mu no longer had the confidence to be able to seize Guiping Pass before noon.

Especially the casualties of the coalition forces made Li Mu feel trembled.

The main force that attacked the pass was the 50,000 sword and shield soldiers of the front army, and 20,000 crossbowmen were just long-range auxiliary. As for the 10,000 cavalry troops, they were only reserve forces.

In the battle yesterday, the sword and shield soldiers were already half lost. In addition, in today's battle today, the sword and shield soldiers were less than 20,000, and it was almost impossible to form an overwhelming advantage on the city wall.

At the end of Guiping Pass, in addition to the more than 2,300 Shenwu Guards brought by Ouyang Shuo, there were more than 2,000 mountain barbarian soldiers left, with a total of nearly 5,000.

Li Mu really didn't have this confidence to use 20,000 shield soldiers to attack the 5,000 ace troops in Shanhai City.

Not to mention that the enemy is the ace among the aces, even if the city is defending at this time, the offensive and defensive ratio of one to four is an extremely dangerous boundary.

Not to mention, they attacked a steep pass.

"This won't work!"

Li Mu shook his head, looked at the knights on both sides, and issued a bloody military order: He asked 10,000 cavalry to abandon all the horses, temporarily act as infantry, and join the siege sequence.

You know, these cavalry are all elite trained by Li Mu, and they are best at cavalry warfare in the wilderness. Now, they have to abandon the sharpest war horses and climb the cloud ladder to attack the city.

Li Mu thought about it and felt so distressed.

Unfortunately, the development of the situation can no longer tolerate his kindness.

Li Mu knew very well that he had to maintain a numerical advantage over the enemy in order to capture the opposite level.

Otherwise, everything will not be discussed.

I have to say that Li Mu is indeed a famous general.

At critical moments, you can cut off your arm and do things without any delay.

The cavalry unit was the personal guards brought out by Li Mu, so naturally there was no coward. After receiving the general's military order, he did not hesitate at all, and he took the horse one by one, pulled out the scimitar at his waist, and walked forward without any hesitation.

Ten thousand cavalrymen who were replenishing their energy and were full of energy suddenly entered the front line of the battlefield.

The defensive pressure of the Shenwu Guard suddenly increased greatly.

What's worse is that the madness of the mountain barbarians has ended and they have begun to enter the weak period, and their combat power has been greatly reduced. For a moment, the entire defense line began to shaky again.

Not to mention the mountain barbarians, even the Shenwu Guards were exhausted after a long-distance raid for a day and a half. Now, the battle is just overdrawing and squeezing their physical strength in advance.

I have to say that the battlefield is indeed changing rapidly.

Both sides of the enemy and us may at any time make a decision, resulting in a shift in the balance of war.

Ouyang Shuo's perception was so keen that he immediately discovered the abnormality on the battlefield and couldn't help but frown.

The decisiveness of the enemy's chief general was indeed somewhat beyond his expectations.

At this time, there must be a new force to replace the downhill barbarian soldiers. Otherwise, if the crazy Shanbian insists on holding on, it will only cause greater casualties.

Once all the Shanren were killed, even if the Shenwu Guard was strong, it would be useless.

Obviously, Ouyang Shuo's previous judgment was too optimistic.

The chief general of the coalition forces is really a difficult opponent.

The question is, where are you going to find a new army now?

Ouyang Shuo frowned and tried hard to search in his mind, not missing any details.

Suddenly, a force appeared in his mind.

Thinking of this, Ouyang Shuo was shocked and shouted loudly: "Pei Ju!"

"Old minister is here!"

Pei Ju had never left the city tower. Hearing Junhou's shout, he rushed over immediately.

"Go, go and bring the surrendered soldiers of the Taiping Army detained at the pass and distribute weapons to them."

When the Imperial Guard Division captured Guiping Pass, except for those who died in battle, the rest of the Taiping Army in the pass surrendered to Shanhai City, with about 3,000 people. They were temporarily detained within the pass, waiting for the reorganization of the Military Affairs Office.

Now, this surrendered soldier has become Ouyang Shuo's only hope.

"June, I'm afraid it's a surrendered soldier at this time..."

Pei Ju looked a little hesitant when she heard this.

The surrendered soldiers of the Taiping Army are different from other surrendered soldiers. Even if they surrender, there are likely to be loyal believers of the Heavenly King Hong Xiuquan.

Therefore, these surrendered soldiers have always been an unstable factor.

It is necessary to wait until the Military Information Department has carefully investigated before it can be fully disrupted before it can be activated with confidence.

And now, it is obviously not a good time to use surrendered soldiers.

If a bad thing is done, it may have a counterproductive effect and lead to a greater tragedy.

Therefore, before Junhou led his troops to reinforce, even in the most desperate moment, Pei Ju did not think about using the three thousand surrendered soldiers of the Taiping Army detained within the pass.

Of course, this is also related to Pei Ju's own lack of prestige.

Of course, Ouyang Shuo knew Pei Ju’s concerns and waved his hand resolutely, "I can’t care about that much now. Let’s deal with the current situation. I will arrange a squadron Shenwu Guard for you."

As he said that, Ouyang Shuo glanced at Pei Ju meaningfully.

Obviously, Ouyang Shuo also had doubts about this, but he had to do it. The compromise was to arrange 100 Shenwu Guards to be responsible for monitoring the surrendered soldiers of the Taiping Army and take over their command.

"clear!"

Pei Ju knew the situation was urgent and didn't say anything else. Junhou arranged for him to deal with the surrendered soldiers, except that there was no one available at hand, so he was probably hoping for his diplomatic ability.

Whether or not it can calm the surrendered soldiers of the Taiping Army depends on Pei Ju.

...

However, Ouyang Shuo had no time to think about it. After making arrangements, he turned around and joined the battle queue.

This battle was the most difficult battle Ouyang Shuo had experienced.

Even if he confronted Chiyou's army, he did not force Ouyang Shuo to this point.

I have to say that the coalition's move is really beautiful.

Another half an hour passed.

The feeling of weakness in the Shan Barbarian warriors became stronger and stronger, and even they were struggling to pick up their weapons. At this time, the "reinforcements" that Ouyang Shuo was looking forward to had not appeared for a long time.

"Did Pei Ju go to persuade the surrendered soldiers and something happened again?"

Ouyang Shuo's heart sank, and he had already realized the failure.

At this time, it would be useless to let Shanman resist.

Ouyang Shuo had to order all the mountain barbarian soldiers to retreat.
