Chapter 1142: Miserably slapped in the face

The news of the loss of Liucheng quickly spread to Linyu Pass, which made Wei Qian and Wang Ji, who were sitting in Linyu Pass, shocked and in chaos.

Some time ago, Wei Qian and Wang Qi had just received news that the Xianbei people had snatched Lu Longsai and invaded Liaoxi on a large scale.

It is Wang Qi's order to abandon Lu Longsai, and all the Youzhou troops in western Liaoning must retreat to Linyu Pass, this is Wang Qi's death order, and Lu Longsai's defenders are of course no exception, so Lu Longsai has become an empty city, and they are not surprised at all.

It's just that what surprised them was that the Xianbei people came really fast, just like a hunting dog with a keen sense of smell, they smelled it so quickly, and the Youzhou army just left with the front foot, and they occupied Lu Longsai with the back foot, as if someone had given them a message, and the Xianbei people grasped the news very quickly.

Of course, it is impossible for Wei Qian and Wang Qi to communicate with the Xianbei people, at least they are officials of the Wei court and have their own ethics, because they know very well what it means once the Hu people are allowed to enter the fortress.

But Wei Qian and Wang Qi don't do it, it doesn't mean that others don't do it, traitors are not only in later generations, all dynasties, there has never been a shortage of traitors who betray the country and seek glory, for their own interests, how can they consider the life and death of the people of Youzhou, the news of the withdrawal of the Youzhou army from Lulongsai and even Liaoxi can naturally be sold for a big price on the Xianbei people's side, for this reason, even if it is to lure the wolf into the house.

Regardless of who gave the Xianbei people a good news, in short, the Xianbei people soon occupied Lulongsai and marched to Liaoxi on a large scale, which was beyond the expectations of Wei Qian and Wang Qi, but the result was very favorable to them.

The Xianbei who invaded Liaoxi from the north to the south and the Bingzhou army that received Liaoxi from the west to the east encountered together, this will be the most fierce battle, no matter who wins and who loses, the result is what Wei Qian and Wang Qi like to see, of course, if they can fight and lose, it will be even better.

With the mentality of sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight, Wei Qian and Wang Qi, the two melon-eating spectators, were ready to take a look at this brilliant battle with relish, but they didn't expect that the Bingzhou army was so strong, and quickly defeated the invincible Xianbei cavalry in Lingzhi, and quickly recovered Lu Longsai, and the result was completely beyond their expectations.

Xianbei people are the old opponents of the Youzhou army, Wei Qian has just been transferred from Luoyang, naturally little is known about the Xianbei people, but Wang Ji is different, he has lived in Youzhou for a long time, and the Hu people around Youzhou are well aware, the fierceness and courage of the Xianbei people are second to none among the Hu people, compared to the Wuhuan people, the Fuyu people, the Goguryeo people, the Xianbei people do have a higher strength than other tribes, Wang Ji has fought with the Xianbei people several times, and there are few victories, which shows the strength of the Xianbei people.

Such a fierce Xianbei people were actually defeated in the hands of the Bingzhou army, and the time was extremely short, and the Bingzhou army quickly recovered Lu Longsai, which inevitably made Wei Qian and Wang Qi a little disappointed, I thought it was an evenly matched contest, but in the end I found that the Xianbei people were just in name, and it was not as easy as for the Bingzhou army to be defeated.

If the Xianbei people can hold back the Bingzhou army, at least it can bring some obstacles to the Bingzhou army, then the defense of Linyu Pass can become easier, and now the Xianbei people are quickly driven back, and the Bingzhou army is almost unscathed, then they are bound to attack Linyu Pass, which will be the defense of Linyu Pass, put forward the most severe test.

It's not that Wei Qian and Wang Qi lack confidence in the defense of Linyu Pass, but the strength shown by the Bingzhou Army makes them faintly worried, even if it is a dangerous fortress Linyu Pass, whether it can withstand the offensive of the Bingzhou Army, now it seems that it is indeed difficult to say.

Therefore, Wei Qian and Wang Qi strengthened the preparation of Linyu Pass, the original night defense, by the sentry to be responsible, in the Linyu Pass and outside the pass, the Youzhou army has arranged a large number of open posts and secret posts, closely monitoring the enemy situation from the western Liaoxi side, once found that the state army has moved, will timely warning, call the rest of the army to guard the pass.

Now after the Bingzhou army defeated the Xianbei people, the situation in Linyu Pass suddenly became tense, and Wang Ji had to send more manpower to strengthen night patrols to prevent the sneak attack of the Bingzhou army.

In this regard, Sima Jun has suffered a big loss more than once, and the lessons of the past are vivid, Wang Ji did not dare to be careless at all, just increasing the number of sentry posts is far from enough, he deliberately ordered the allocation of about one-third of the troops, carried out rotation, and strengthened the night guard to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

The entire Linyu Pass garrison was in full array, just waiting for the attack of the Bingzhou army.

But waiting and waiting, but there was no movement of the main force of the Bingzhou army, only Yanghu's infantry battalion was stationed in Liaoxi County, which was far away from Linyu Pass, and at the same time, the Bingzhou army cut off and blocked all the roads to the west, which made it difficult for the Linyu defenders to obtain news from Liaoxi.

The more there is no exact news, the easier it is to make people panic, because the Bingzhou army has not come to attack for a long time, the military spirit of the entire Linyu Pass has become a little unstable, and many people are speculating about the next move of the Bingzhou army, and there are many discussions.

Cao Liang wanted to attack Liaodong, and Linyu Pass was a hurdle that he could never get around, so Wang Ji ordered the whole army to continue to strengthen its vigilance, and there must be no relaxation.

Wei Qian was a little worried, he was not familiar with the terrain of Liaodong, so he asked Wang Qi to see if there was a way to bypass Linyu Pass and take Liaodong directly.

The answer he got was yes, yes! Of course, the road to Liaodong is not only Linyu Pass, but the other roads are not in the territory of Wei, and they are all under the control of the Xianbei people, especially in the area of the Daling River, which is the nest of Yuwen Xianbei, one of the three heroes of the eastern grassland, and cannot destroy the Yuwen Department, so he does not want to pass.

Wang Qi swore to Wei Qian that he didn't look at the combat strength of the Bingzhou army, and even defeated the Xianbei people in the Lingzhi area of Liaoxi, but entering the grassland to fight and fighting in Youzhou are completely different things, Cao Liang wants to sweep the grassland and defeat the three major tribes of Xianbei in the east, which is simply wishful thinking, so Wang Qi let Wei Qian sit back and relax, and guard Linyu Pass in a steady and down-to-earth manner, and there is no other way to go other than the state army.

But as soon as the words fell, Wang Ji was slapped in the face, and the news just came that Liucheng was lost!
