The Weirong Village of the Shu army was located at the highest point of Weirongpo, which cut off the mountain road. If the Wei army wanted to pass through Weirongpo, they had to take down Weirongpo, and there was no other choice.

Although he had made mental preparations in advance, Shi Bao still frowned when he saw the dangerous terrain of Weirongpo. This Weirong Village is indeed difficult to fight!

Compared with Dangshi Village, Fengpo Village and Qingniu Village, the terrain of Weirong Village is extremely dangerous. The other three mountain villages combined may not be as difficult as Weirong. No wonder Bu Association gave up Fengpo Village and Qingniu Village so readily. It is true that he used all his troops to defend Weirong Village.

But no matter how difficult it is to fight Weirong Village, Shi Bao has no intention of retreating. This is the only passage to the Guanting. The Wei army has no detour. If they cannot get Weirong Village, it means that all previous efforts have been wasted.

So no matter how difficult it is, Shi Bao must grit his teeth and do his best to take down Weirong Village.

But this battle is indeed difficult to fight. Weirong Village is set up on the commanding heights of Weirong Village. Within a radius of ten miles, Shi Bao couldn't try to attack Shizhuang to seize the commanding heights of the Immortal Finger Peak to peek into the reality of the Shu army.

Since there is only one road up the mountain and the Shu army is guarding the dangerous situation, even the scouts cannot infiltrate and infiltrate, and cannot understand the deployment of the Shu army in Weirong Village, which is the biggest difficulty for the Wei army.

They must attack Weirong Village in a dark situation, and the difficulty is conceivable.

Only by knowing oneself and the enemy can one never be defeated in a hundred battles. This is almost an iron rule for the army to win battles. Only by grasping the enemy situation in detail and perfectly, can the attacking side take the initiative in combat.

The battle at Dangshizhai is a clear evidence that because the Wei army controlled the Xianrenzhifeng peak in advance, and then used the flag-tonguing method to command the Wei army to attack the weak links of the Shu army, it easily defeated the Shu army's defense line. Bu Xie had to give up Dangshizhai and fled to Weirong Village.

Now that it is not as easy to attack Weirong Village, Shi Bao is not as good as destroying Shizhuang. Shi Bao has no idea about the situation in Weirong Village. Now he can only know that there are about 10,000 troops in the Bu Xie's hands, but Shi Bao really knows nothing about the defense status of the Shu army.

In other words, Shi Bao had no idea about the defense of the Shu army in Weirong Village, and in this case, he launched an attack almost blindly.

The dangerous terrain and unknown enemy troops all seem to be so difficult. Shi Bao has experienced many battles, but this is his first experience in such a battle. It is also a test for Shi Bao. But no matter what, Shi Bao is not a person who can give up easily. He is determined to take down Weirong Village at all costs.

Cao Liang did not let him take on the task of attacking the twilight pavilion, and Shi Bao had a lot of fire in his stomach. This time, attacking Huya Mountain was a chance for Shi Bao to prove himself. If he could successfully take Huya Mountain, he could successfully fight to the twilight pavilion, and he would have the chance to grab the credit for taking the twilight pavilion from Liu Jing.

As Cao Liang's pace of pacifying the world became faster and faster, there were fewer and fewer opportunities to gain military achievements in the future. After Shi Bao failed to pursue Lu Kang, he saw that the rewards that were within his control passed by him, Shi Bao was really unwilling to accept it.

In order to save his face and to compete for these few opportunities for meritorious service, Shi Bao attacked Huya Mountain this time with a strong attitude. If he retreated at this time, he might become a laughing stock for others.

So for Shi Bao, he must win this battle, and win completely, so that people can convince themselves and write down a lot of marks on their own merits.

Now there are fewer and fewer opportunities to make meritorious contributions. After the Shu Kingdom is destroyed in the future, the generals will no longer have the opportunity to gain military achievements. Then, the few opportunities now need to be grasped. In the future, when the rivers and seas are clear and peaceful, they will be able to enjoy wealth and prosperity on their contributions, grant their wives and children, and shine on their clans.

How many times can you fight in life? Now is the time to fight. If you don’t work hard, you will never win the glory you want.

Shi Bao had already made up his mind that he would never give up until he reached Mount Weirong. He carefully studied the route of attacking Weirong Village and decided to adopt a step-by-step approach to launch an attack on the Shu army of Weirong Village.

Compared with other offensive methods, step-by-step approach is probably the best offensive method. While advancing forward, the Wei army kept digging trenches and repairing bunkers, which could minimize the disadvantages of geographical advantages.

The bunker is an excellent facility for the Wei army to avoid the bows, arrows, wood and stones of the Shu army. Although this way of advancement is relatively slow, when faced with strong obstacles from the Shu army, sometimes the distance forward is only a few feet away every day.

This kind of attack speed, saying it is a turtle speed, is a bit insulting the turtle. To be honest, letting the turtle climb forward for twelve hours a day will never only climb this little distance. Now Shi Bao's request for the Wei army to advance forward every day is indeed slower than the turtle.

Shi Bao was actually not in a hurry. He was not afraid of slowness. As long as the Wei army could move forward every day and move forward steadily, it would be enough.

It doesn't matter if it's slower. Even if the Wei army can advance forward at a speed that the naked eye can see every day, it will only take a few days to advance to the front of the Shu army's position.

Shi Bao’s most concerned issue is probably the casualties of people. It is impossible for the Wei army to attack a dangerously terrain such as Weirong Village without paying a little casualties.

But the key is, how much casualties are within the scope of Shi Bao's tolerance. If all the 30,000 troops of the Wei army were killed and all the troops could be defeated, then what is the significance of such a battle?

Therefore, Shi Bao must control the casualties of the Wei army within a certain range and must not exceed his expectations. For this reason, even if the attack time and efficiency are sacrificed, Shi Bao doesn't care.

Although Shi Bao also wanted to take over Weirong Village in the shortest time, if he had been delayed here for too long, Liu Jing made breakthrough progress in the Qiting Pavilion. If he took over the Qiting Pavilion in one fell swoop, then Shi Bao would have no choice but to be very good at fighting.

But Weirongzhai’s defense is indeed not something that can be won quickly. Shi Bao has no other idea, and only a slow plan can be achieved.
