Although Chen Ying has never commanded siege operations, it does not mean that he will not. If they are allowed to attack Chang'an, under the condition that the morale and morale of the defenders of Chang'an are all there, without 100,000 soldiers and horses, Chen Ying of Chang'an City will not even touch it. But seeing the majestic Yanmen Pass, Chen Ying felt that if he didn't throw tens of thousands of dollars under the Yanmen Pass, he might not have half a chance of success.

"It's hard to fight!" Liu Tongyi said with a bitter face: "It seems that Liu Wuzhou is very well prepared......

Chen Ying looked at Liu Tong and said, "Is there a way to bypass it?" ”

Liu Tong looked at Chen Ying in disbelief and said, "If Yanmen Pass can be bypassed, then is Yanmen Pass still meaningful?" ”

When Chen Ying heard this, he felt inexplicably wonderful. During the Ming Dynasty, in order to resist the invasion of the Mongol army, the north continued to set up dangerous passes and build defense lines, forming an outer and inner border. The inner line refers to the inner line of the Great Wall in Yanqing County, Hebei Province, which winds for more than 1,000 kilometers through Shenchi, Ningwu, Dai County, Shuo County, Hebei Wei County and other places. On this line of defense, a fort was set up at Chuangguan and the army was stationed. The three levels of Bauhinia, the inverted horse, and the Juyong are called the inner three levels. The three passes of the head, Ningwu and Yanmen are called the outer three passes. Among the three outer passes, the head is the extreme edge, the Yanmen is the rush, and among the two passes of Ning Wujie, the control of the inner side is the head, and the situation is particularly important.

In fact, Chen Ying did not know, in fact, during the Five Dynasties, the partial pass was built, and Liu Chong established the partial head village in Han Guangling (on the mountain beam one mile east of the city of Biguan today) when he was proclaimed emperor in Jinyang. In this era, there is not even a shadow. As for Ningwuguan, it was established in the Ming Dynasty. That is, the outer three levels, except for the Yanmen Pass, the other two levels have no shadows.

"It's good to be forgotten!" Chen Yingdao: "Ashina Simo! ”

"The last general!"

"The Lingwu Right Army is fully armed, carrying half a month's dry rations, how far can it march in one day and one night!"

"The mountain road is rugged, the road is inconvenient, and the war horse can't run fast, but it shouldn't be less than one hundred and fifty miles!"

Hearing the conversation between Chen Ying and Ashina Simo, the generals of the Lingwu Right Army became excited one by one, looking at each other, and their eyes exchanged eagerly.

Forced march?

Ranged Raid?

Capture the thief and capture the king first?

Although the Lingwu Right Army was the latest unit of the three armies under Chen Ying's command. But they were a people on horseback, and they all had faith.

Chen Ying unfolded the map. If you want to go to Ningwu Pass from Yanmen Pass, if you take the inner line, the distance is not far but two hundred miles. If you force the march, one day and one night, grit your teeth and hold on for a while. If you take the outer line, then the distance is almost doubled. To take the outer line, you need to return to Shuozhou first, back and forth.

Chen Ying took a breath and shook his head slightly. The distance of nearly 300 miles, if it is in the plains, can be done without much effort, but in the mountainous areas, the difficulty is not ordinary. Chen Ying hesitated for a moment, and said coldly: "One day and one night, three hundred miles of mountain road!" Tomorrow, this time, go on the offensive immediately! ”

All the generals are shocked, fully armed, half a month's provisions, and three hundred miles of mountain roads are strengthened, what is this going to do? Liu Tong looked at Chen Ying's fingers, although Chen Ying subconsciously pointed his finger at Ningwu Pass, but at this time, there was no Ningwu Pass, but there was Lou Annoyance.

Liu Tong instantly understood what Chen Ying meant, this is to abandon Yanmen Pass and change it to Loufu Pass as a breakthrough direction. Although the Lou Fu Pass is not stronger and steeper than the Yanmen Pass, the Lou Fu Pass is not something that a Turkic barbarian like Ashina Simo can easily break through. Liu Tong is quite quite, if he is given 3,000 soldiers and horses, relying on Lou Fuguan, he can let Ashina Simo's Lingwu Right Army shed the last drop of blood.

Liu Tong's expression suddenly became serious: "General, the lower official is willing to follow the Lingwu Right Army to counsel military affairs." ”

Chen Ying said with his hands behind his back: "There are nine stops in the world, Yanmen is the first, in the case of strict defense, if you want to break through the Yanmen Pass, you can only fill it with human lives." The most taboo thing for this general is to use the blood of the soldiers to dye his own road to promotion. Now Hedong is flowing and Taiyuan is bleeding, as the Tang Dynasty army, to regain the lost territory, our soldiers have an unshirkable responsibility. Those guys in the Tang Dynasty court only wanted to take off Lao Tzu's head and seize Lao Tzu's military power. In their heads, they never thought about it. Hedong is a line of interest that our country cannot afford to lose. Once lost, Datang will be finished. Now that most of Hedong is lost, no need to ask, I'm sure that some of them have begun to communicate with Zheng Wang Shichong, Hebei Dou Jiande, and even Liu Wuzhou. They don't think about the interests of the country, I think! One day and one night, before Liu Wuzhou had time to strengthen the defense of Lou Fu Pass, he took down Lou Fu Pass, if he arrived at Lou Fu Pass, there was Liu Wuzhou's army to defend, even if he hit his head, he would also bump into Lou Fu Pass for me! Can it be done? ”

Ashina Smolly said loudly: "Don't break the building, come and see you!" ”

Liu Tong also said: "Don't break the building, come and see you!" ”

Chen Yingdao: "Then prepare, replenish dry food, prepare equipment, and set off in half an hour!" ”

At this time, Chen Ying's butterfly wings did fan the entire history.

Liu Tong and Ashina Simo led the generals of the Lingwu Right Army to leave and go down to prepare.

Chen Ying looked at the direction of the offset, and thought like a cat scratching in his heart.

It's so forgettable. It is because the partial pass relies on the Yellow River, generally speaking, whether it is the Turks or the Xiongnu, they all send troops in the summer, and when the troops can be sent in the summer, the Yellow River rises, and the Yellow River becomes a natural moat in the partial pass. If you want to cross the Yellow River by force, it is no less difficult than crossing the mountains and mountains, but once the Yellow River is frozen in winter, the entire Yellow River is full of loopholes, so the partial pass will be forgotten.

However, for Chen Ying, the Yellow River is not a natural hazard, but a power motor. It is precisely because of the existence of the Yellow River that his troops can bear the supply of more than 30,000 men and horses with very little manpower.

Chen Ying looked at the generals under his command, especially Zhang Huaiwei, who was an old man who followed Chen Ying in Jingyang, but Zhang Huaiwei's ability was average and there was nothing brilliant. However, if there is cheapness, it will definitely be cheaper for his own people first, and Zhang Huaiwei is his own person. Chen Yingdao: "Do you know here? From here there is a valley, you can ten horses in parallel, along this valley, you can turn to the south, into the Weize Pass, now the princess of Pingyang led the troops to hold on to the Weize Pass, if you are the first to appear in the Weize Pass, it must be a great achievement! ”

When Xu Jingzong heard Princess Pingyang, he said eagerly: "The lower official asks for military affairs with the army counselor!" ”

"Yes!"

Chen Yingdao: "Yu Guni, Zhang Huaiwei!" ”

"In!"

"The first and second Zhichong Mansion of the Lingwu Left Army and the second Zhichong Mansion of the Dingyuan Army, headed by Yu Guni, Deputy Zhang Huaiwei, and Counselor Xu Jingzong for military affairs! Go south along the Hanguang Mountains and support the Reedek Pass! ”

……

Half an hour later, more than 20,000 people and horses left Yanmen Pass successively from the seven Zhichong Mansions of the Lingwu Right Army, the two Zhichong Mansions of the Lingwu Left Army, and the second Zhichong Mansion of the Dingyuan Army. At this time, Chen Ying only had four Zhichong Mansions left under Chen Ying's left Army and two Zhichong Mansions of the Dingyuan Army.

Two-thirds less than a third. I think it's a fool who can see the problem.

Liu Wuzhou looked at Chen Ying's military formation becoming a lot thinner, and said with a gloomy face: "Chen Ying'er has divided his troops. Not good...... The building is annoying. ”

Liu Wu turned around and rushed to Shangshu Zhang Lun and said: "Who is the one who is bothering the building now?" ”

Zhang Lun said: "Huang Ziying's son, Huang Shizheng!" ”

Fan Junzhang said: "It's not good, Huang Shizheng is just a gentleman, walking birds to tease Ma Shangke, let him defend the Lou Annoyance Pass, the Lou Annoyance Pass will be lost!" ”

Liu Wuzhou said: "Zhang Qing, you should go to Lou Fu Pass, you must guard Lou Fu Pass, if Lou Fu Pass is lost, our good situation will be lost!" ”

"Obey orders!"

Zhang Lun did not shirk it, and left when he received the order. However, Zhang Lun personally led two or three hundred personal guards, and he did not carry any baggage and supplies at all.

Looking at Zhang Lun's back, Liu Wuzhou said with a smile: "With Zhang Lun here, Lou Fuguan will be safe and sound, and Chen Ying'er will definitely hit his head and bleed." ”

Fan Junzhang nodded approvingly and said: "Chen Ying'er is a little anxious, seeing that things cannot be violated, he decisively divides the troops, and this decision is beyond the reach of his peers." ”

However, whether it was Liu Wuzhou or Fan Junzhang, they didn't think of it at all. In fact, Chen Ying's real killer move was not Ashina Simo's way, nor was it a surprise attack on the building. His real killer move was a deviation that had long been forgotten by Liu Wuzhou and everyone.

The purpose of using more than 10,000 soldiers and horses along the way is to attract Liu Wuzhou's attention, and at the same time, it can better cover the strange soldiers of Yu Guni and Zhang Huaiwei, so that they can advance into Weize Pass without knowing it.
