"Pear blossom, you're finally back, and my father and mother are looking forward to you every day." Seeing Fan Lihua walk in, Fan Hong said happily.

"Father, my daughter came down from the mountain on Master's orders this time. For the Tang army that was about to arrive at Hanjiang Pass. Fan Lihua opened her mouth and said to Fan Hong.

"My father knew that Pear Blossom was here for this. Now that there are pear blossoms in this Hanjiang Pass, he Tang Jun may not be able to have this ability if he wants to pass. Fan Hong said with a laugh.

"Father, don't say that the daughter is back. Even if there were ten Fan Lihua in Hanjiang Pass, it would be impossible to block half a step of the Tang army. Fan Lihua said to Fan Hong.

"What do you mean by this, didn't you come back to help my father and me guard Hanjiang Pass?" Fan Hong asked Fan Lihua with a gloomy face.

"Father, Su Baotong dragged the entire Xiliang Kingdom into the water for his own selfishness. Not only did none of the residents of Sanguan survive this battle, but the people of Chain Yangcheng also formed a grievance under the Tang Army's sword. ”

"If my father still insists on going his own way, I am afraid that in the end, the villagers and elders of Hanjiang Pass will also die in Hanjiang Pass because of my father's decision." Fan Lihua said.

"I didn't expect that my baby daughter Fan Hong was looking forward to day and night. I didn't come back to help me hold Hanjiang Pass, but to persuade me to surrender. ”

"I, Fan Hong, am a minister of Xiliang, and I am the king of Xiliang. How can I be willing to do perverse things, I have already decided to live and die with Hanjiang Pass. Fan Hong turned around and said.

"Father, even if you don't think about yourself. You should also think about the two older brothers. We should think about it even more for the hundreds of thousands of people in Hanjiang Pass. Fan Lihua continued to persuade.

At this moment, Fan Long and Fan Hu walked in. And said to Fan Lihua: "We brothers don't have to worry about you, if you are afraid of death, go back to Lishan quickly, absolutely no one will stop you." ”

"Big brother, second brother, are you just as confused as your father? Now the person in charge of Xiliang is no longer the king of Xiliang. It's Su Bao and his sister and brother. ”

"It won't be long before the entire Xiliang Kingdom will leave no chickens and dogs. So the two elder brothers still helped the younger sister persuade her father. Fan Lihua said to her two brothers.

No matter how Fan Lihua persuaded her, Fan Hong, Fan Long, Fan Hu, father and son, just couldn't listen to half a sentence. even opened his mouth to insult Fan Lihua, who is greedy for life and afraid of death.

In the end, Fan Lihua only said one sentence, that is, if I Fan Lihua is afraid of death, why should I go back to Hanjiangguan at this time. After that, he turned around and went to see his mother. The three of Fan Hong's father and son were hung in the study.

……

"Marshal, there is Hanjiang Pass ahead." Tanma came to Xue Dingshan and said.

"Order the whole army to set up camp five miles away from Hanjiang Pass. And ordered to lay out positions outside the artillery battalion. Xue Dingshan ordered.

After receiving Xue Dingshan's command, the whole army began to set up camp. And in front of the barracks, the red-coat cannon was arranged. After all the preparations were made, the generals came to the big tent of the Chinese army and returned to Xue Dingshan.

"Father, I think our army should launch an artillery bombardment on Hanjiang Pass overnight. Kill their majesty first. Xue Dingshan said to Xue Rengui.

Although Xue Rengui's body has not healed now, it is still possible to walk slowly. So with the support of Xue Jinlian, he came to the big tent of the Chinese army.

To put it bluntly, Xue Rengui is still not very at ease with Xue Dingshan. That's why he ignored Xue Jinlian's opposition and said that he wanted the Chinese army's big account.

After Xue Rengui heard Xue Dingshan's words, he nodded and said, "This is feasible, after all, the battle between the two armies is morale." ”

"Now that the morale of the Xiliang Army is not high, give him another dismount. It is estimated that the Xiliang army will have no morale at all. ”

"Duke Eguo, then this matter will be left to you. We must show the prestige of our army. Xue Dingshan said to Yu Chigong.

"Marshal, I'm afraid it may not be possible. Now there are not many shells left. It simply can't afford such waste. Wei Chigong said helplessly.

Now that Li Tai has returned to Youzhou, the logistics supply will naturally not be able to keep up. So there are not many shells and grenades left in stock.

Hearing Wei Chigong's words, Li Zhi opened his mouth and said, "I have already sent Lu Guogong back to Chang'an City, and it is estimated that it will not be long before supplies will be delivered." However, it is better to save a little during this time. ”

Hearing Li Zhi's words, everyone's hanging hearts finally let go. They were really worried that the redcoat cannon would run out of shells. After all, they have now adapted to the current way of fighting with red-coated cannons.

"In that case, I'll go to Hanjiang Pass every morning. Let's see what kind of master he has in Hanjiang Pass. Xue Dingshan said.

……

It turned out that when he left Suoyang City, Li Zhi received a secret letter from Wu Ze. As mentioned in the letter, Li Tai sent hundreds of red-coated cannons to Chang'an City. Shells and grenades are also in the tens of thousands.

Therefore, Li Zhicai sent Cheng Yanjin back to transport supplies to the front of the two armies. But after all, it is thousands of miles away, and it is impossible to deliver it in a short time.

And the person who came to deliver the letter for Wu Ze was none other than Tang Aoshan, the master of the Tang Sect. However, Li Zhi didn't know Tang Aoshan, he only knew that his name was Xiaoshanzi.

And according to Wu Ze's explanation, let Tang Aoshan stay in the army and be responsible for Li Zhi's food, clothing, housing and transportation. The reason was that he was worried about Li Zhi's body.

So Li Zhi has not suspected anything until now. And Li Tai did not mention in the letter how ambitious Wu Ze was.

After all, even if Li Tai said it, Li Zhi would never believe it. Because Li Zhi really loves Wu Ze too much. But Wu Ze loved power more, and Li Zhi became secondary.

Although Li Zhi was not the slightest wary of Tang Aoshan, it did not mean that Li Xin was not wary. After all, Li Tai had already told Li Xin.

Explain that you must guard against the eunuchs around Li Zhi, especially a person named Xiaoshanzi. So as soon as Tang Aoshan arrived in Suoyang City, he was completely under Li Xin's surveillance.

However, this Tang Aoshan is also a forbearant person, and after arriving in Suoyang City, he was not in a hurry at all. So now Tang Aoshan is pretending to be very good.

If Li Tai hadn't told Li Xin in advance, it is estimated that Li Xin would not necessarily have thought that this little mountain would have calculated Li Zhi.

……

Early the next morning, Xue Dingshan put on his armor and robes. led a group of men and horses out of the camp and marched to the front of Hanjiang Pass. and ordered the soldiers to fight the enemy outside the Hanjiang Pass.

Fan Hong in Hanjiang Pass naturally also received the news. So with his two sons, he killed out of Hanjiang Pass. And in front of the moat, he set up a position.

"The Tang Dynasty barbarians on the other side, your grandfather will not kill unknown people in his hands." As soon as Fan Long urged the war horse, he came to the front of the two armies, pointed at Xue Dingshan and said arrogantly.

"This marshal is Xue Dingshan, the generalissimo of the three armies of the Tang Dynasty, are you that nameless person?" Xue Dingshan asked with a disdainful expression.
