March 22.

The battle of the fire attack on Shile a few days ago was certainly a rare victory, but the losses of the Jin army were very heavy. Although the men and horses who 'lured' the enemy at the pass of Tuanbai Valley were almost completely destroyed, Shile's desperate counterattack also caused a lot of casualties. Coupled with the losses in the previous battles, the attrition of the non-commissioned officers of Lu Yao's department has been as high as more than 30%, more than half of the officers below the team leader were killed in the battle, and all the generals were wounded. It can be said that the whole army was wounded and could no longer continue to fight.

Under such circumstances, Ling Husheng, the general of the army who stayed in Jinyang, first ordered Huang Su to be responsible for the defense of the eastern front of Zhaoyu Qi, and sent a military academy with hundreds of recruits to fill the gap in troops, and transferred Lu Yao's troops back to Jinyang to rest.

Lu Yao then taught the brigade.

After several days of hard fighting, the soldiers were exhausted; There were a large number of wounded and prisoners in the army, so the march was very slow, and they were encamped no more than twenty or thirty miles a day.

At noon on this day, the military horses passed through the Blue Valley in the southeast of Jinyang City, and it was only ten miles away from Jinyang. The city of Jinyang City is in sight, and the sunlight is shining on the towering city wall, which seems to be very majestic.

Strictly speaking, the Blue Valley is not a valley, but a depression. The official road passes through the center of the depression, and the two sides of the road are quite beautiful with forest springs. At this time, a gentle breeze blows, and the light sound of the wind moving the treetops and bursts of birdsong is heard, which is refreshing. When the soldiers arrived here, they couldn't help but let go of their heavy emotions a little. The thought of finally defeating an unprecedented enemy made me feel happy.

Shen Jin heard from his father that there were relics of the Qin and Zhao 'engagements' during the Warring States period nearby, so he took his own soldiers to the Huaigu Range Rover. This guy is a martial artist, he has never read a history book in his life, what is the ancient pregnancy? What wins? In fact, it's just a plan to 'shoot' in the mountains and forests for hunting.

Lu Yao is also quite interested in 'shooting' hunting, but unfortunately he is one of the seriously injured in the army, and he is almost unable to move at the moment. In the battle a few days ago, he took the lead, and he was wounded and lost blood in many places, all supported by a sharp energy. It wasn't until the day before yesterday that he finally fainted while inspecting the battlefield, which frightened the whole army. After a few days of rearing, his body was still weak, and he could not ride the horse easily, so he could only lie on the soft 'bed' placed between the two war horses, and let the horse lead the horse slowly. The horse's hooves stomped on the ground regularly, and the soft 'bed' rose and fell accordingly, making him 'want' to sleep.

Xue Tong knocked on the soft 'bed' with a horsewhip, and laughed at Lu Yao: "I remember that the history books said that Li Guang, the flying general of the Han Dynasty, was also lying between two horses like you. Daoming, do you admire the legacy of the flying general? ”

Lu Yao reluctantly scolded: "Nonsense, General Li was captured by the Huns, how miserable?" I'm victorious! ”

The two were talking and laughing, when they suddenly heard a noise in the back. It turned out that more than a dozen cavalrymen were galloping along the official road. They rampage into the loose marching column without slowing down. The soldiers couldn't avoid it, and many of them were knocked over. The sound of moaning and scolding rang out.

Xue Tong was furious and shouted loudly: "Who dares to rush my queue? Take it for me! ”

This is wartime, and military law comes first. It was a big crime to ram into the army, so Xue Tong ordered to be killed on the spot; It is already polite to order the armies to capture them. When the generals were just wandering, they suddenly suffered a big loss, and they were all angry in their hearts, and when they heard Xue Tong's order, they immediately responded, and hundreds of people surrounded the knights. Some people even took fork rod lassos and the like, and wanted to drag them off their horses.

The cavalry was all in the dust, and the first one rode on a high-quality horse. The horse was very hot-tempered, and when he saw that the crowd was coming up, he jumped and moved. While controlling the horse, he shouted, "Hugh will do it!" Which general is in front? I am engaged in Wang Xiu, and I have a military situation to report to Jinyang! Get out of the way! ”

Wang Xiu Wang Zihao is a subordinate of Yue Shigong's subordinate Zhong Su and Lu Yao, and he also has a bit of 'friendship' with Xue Tong, so he can be called an old acquaintance. Why is he disgraced and extremely embarrassed at the moment; Xue Tong was a little farther away from him, and he didn't recognize him for a while.

Hearing Wang Xiu's shout to sign up, Xue Tong hurriedly went. After getting closer, I found that Wang Xiu and his party were all galloping for a long distance, and they didn't care about horsepower at all, and the war horses under the seat were all 'whipped' so that they were drenched in blood. Wang Xiu's face was even more impatient, his eye sockets were deeply sunken, and his eyes were bloodshot.

Xue Tong was slightly startled. Wang Xiu was engaged in the bow horse subordinate to the Bingzhou Assassin History, and did not belong to the army establishment of the Zhenwei General's Mansion; He usually served as an attendant to the Duke of Yueshi, and was also specifically responsible for the collection and transmission of military intelligence. With the peculiarity of his status, what circumstances could make him so nervous?

If you change someone else, you will inevitably ask what happened. But Xue Tong is the kind of person whose 'sexuality' personality is resolute and calm, and even a little old-fashioned. Although he was suspicious in his heart, he didn't ask questions, but just shouted and asked the soldiers to retreat to the fields on both sides of the official road, make way for Wang Xiu and the others' cavalry, and then said to Wang Xiu: "Brother Zihao, please." ”

Wang Xiu didn't say much, and walked away.

Xue Tong vaguely felt uneasy. He stopped in the rear for a while, regrouping the soldiers scattered on both sides of the road. Those soldiers were all Shen Jin's subordinates, and they had always been a little casual, and they were even more lazy after the war. Xue Tong drank a little anxiously and ordered them to speed up their march, and then changed the soldiers to find Shen Jin back.

When these things were done, he turned his horse back to the front of the line.

The rear team delayed the journey, but the front team did not stop, and at this moment it had arrived at the Wuli Pavilion outside the west 'gate' of Jinyang. The officers sent by Jinyang City to pick up the people and horses, as well as Deng Gang, who was in charge of staying in the old camp, had already greeted them and were talking with Lu Yao.

After all, Lu Yao's body was weak, and he felt very tired after answering a few words with his 'spirit' spirit, but he had to struggle to deal with it. Deng Gang is fine. The officer who was responsible for the introduction of people and horses was surnamed Fan, an old man from Jizhou who accompanied Yue Shigong into the merger, and the current captain under the command of Ling Husheng, the general of the army; The few people who came with him were also old subordinates of Yue Shigong. These people were originally quite arrogant in front of the remaining generals and soldiers of the Bingzhou Army, but at this time, they were a "General Lu", extremely polite and polite. It seems that Lu Yao first killed the famous Hun general Qiao Xi, and then burned the record of 5,000 Huns, which touched them a lot.

Xue Tong hurriedly turned around to say hello, asked Guo Huan, Yang Ruo and others to come forward to receive him, and took Lu Yao to the other side of the team.

"Daoming, I'm afraid something unexpected!" He said solemnly, and then informed Lu Yao of the situation where Wang Xiu had passed.

During the time that Xue Tong was talking, Lu Yao only listened quietly. It was as if subconsciously pressing the various joints of the other hand with his fingers in order, making a crackling sound. After a while, he said slowly: "I'm afraid that the party has changed." ”

"What!" Xue Tong was dumbfounded.

Lu Yao said in a deep voice: "From Hedong to Taiyuan, there have been no more than three roads since ancient times. Or from leaving Shidan Yuting to the east, over one hundred and sixty miles of lofty mountains, through Huanglu Pass, in Zishi County into the territory of Taiyuan. This road is rugged and difficult to travel, and it cannot support the actions of the large army, not to mention that the lord's army is stationed in the area of Zishi and Zhongyang, and this road has been cut off. ”

Or through the Huoshan of Yong'an County into the Bird Mouse Valley, Yu Jie's troops are divided into two roads, respectively along the two banks of Zhaoyu Qi to the north, the two roads to Wu County convergence, you can go directly to the city of Jinyang. This is the route that the Hu people have taken this time. However, General Lu Chang's insistence on Jiexiu made it difficult for the Hu army to deploy; After that, the battles on the east and west sides of the Zhaoyu Qi were not smooth...... The Hu people did not achieve the expected results. If the two armies continue to hold each other, the Hu people can only choose to withdraw on their own. ”

"Xingshi mobilized the crowd to come, but in the end he returned in vain, and the Hu people were naturally unwilling. Therefore, they will inevitably seriously consider the third way, that is, to go east first, go north to Shangdang through Yiguan or Yewang, and then turn west to threaten Jinyang. This road is far away, and along the way the mountains and valleys are deep, rivers, and there are many natural dangers that are not open to the public. Only one member of the army is guarded here, even if tens of thousands of soldiers are mobilized, it is difficult to break through quickly. But ......"

Before his words fell, he suddenly heard the sound of golden drums in Jinyang City, and then on the corner tower at the entrance of the city's gate, a thick black wolf smoke rose up!

At this time, the people who were talking on the other side of the line were shocked. Captain Fan was the first to exclaim, "This, this, this...... Is this a warning sign? Where did the enemy come from? ”

Everyone present was a veteran of military affairs, and they were well aware of the current situation. Unless the enemy brigade reaches Jinyang, it will never ignite wolf smoke, but the Hu people marched on two routes, and the main force on the west road has been blocked by the army led by the prince of Yueshi, and it will never be lost, and the partial division on the east road has obviously been defeated by Lu Yao? Jinyang is the rear, how could the Hu people break through here?

Could it be that the soldiers guarding the 'gate' of the city were careless and mistakenly lit wolf smoke? Many people are so suspicious. However, a moment later, in addition to the one that had been lit earlier, three more wolf smoke were lit one after another. The four wolf smoke were as straight as pillars, falling in the eyes of everyone, but they were clearly with a hideous murderous aura. There are a total of four wolf smokes, which means that the enemy army is at least more than 10,000!

At this time, Lu Yao and Xue Tong arrived together. Xue Tong said in a deep voice: "This is not the time to talk, let's appease the soldiers first, and then quickly enter the city." ”
