After scanning the layout of the barracks and the terrain at the mouth of the valley, Wang Qi speculated: "The terrain here is special, and it is a dangerous place in the art of war. ”

"You see, the valley is flanked by unattainable mountains, but the valley floor is flat for marching, and the rebels are stationed there, presumably to seal the mouth of the valley."

"In this way, if you enter, you can attack the outside of the valley, and if you retreat, you can defend the valley."

Sima Jiu praised: "Uncle Brother Gao Zhi, I admire it." ”

Not long after, just as Li Jiancheng and his party were about to cross the barracks and enter the valley.

"General, please stay."

Sima Jiu looked over and saw three general-looking people, with more than a hundred elite sergeants, hurrying towards Li Jiancheng.

Seeing this, Yang Wengan drove his horse in front of the three generals, and glared angrily at the big-bellied general led by him, and asked arrogantly, "What's the matter?" ”

The pot-bellied general led by him hurriedly stopped his steps, and after a little calm, he responded tentatively: "I am Yu Zhenhu, the commander of the commander under the command of the great general Yu Gongli, and I was ordered to lead the army to garrison here, dare to ask who the general is?" ”

Yang Wengan looked down at Yu Zhenhu and was not ready to reply.

And Li Jiancheng, who was in front of the team, ignored Yu Zhenhu at all, and led the team straight to the valley.

Seeing that the other party didn't pay attention to him, Yu Zhenhu immediately became angry and reminded loudly: "General! ”

The other party led troops to break into his camp without authorization, and now, he turned a blind eye to himself, which made Yu Zhenhu extremely dissatisfied.

As a close confidant of Yu Gongxi, he has never been so despised.

At the same time, his sergeants were all drawing their swords and arrows, apparently preparing to use force to stop Li Jiancheng and his party from moving forward.

"Bold, that is General Li of the Governor's Mansion, this is the general order issued by the Commander-in-Chief's Mansion Soldier Cao Pei Wen'an, and our department was ordered to go to meet with the Soldier Cao."

Yang Wengan took out the general order and quickly displayed it in front of everyone, and then took it back into his pocket.

"General Yu, do you have any questions?"

Yu Zhenhu saw that the other party took out the general order, so he asked with little confidence: "General, can the general order be allowed to borrow ......?"

Yang Wengan glared angrily: "Presumptuous, military secret order, how can you allow Er and others to peep!" ”

"If the general has any doubts, he can send someone to verify. If the military aircraft is delayed because of this, the general cannot afford to wait. ”

Yang Wengan stopped at the point, and then said no more.

At this point, Yu Zhenhu stopped asking.

After all, the other party has a general's order, and military law is ruthless, and obstructing the general's order is a serious crime.

When a black-faced officer beside Yu Zhenhu was about to speak, Yu Zhenhu immediately intervened to stop him.

Li Jiancheng led the cavalry out of the barracks quickly, and then Yang Wengan drove his horse to follow.

The black-faced officer looked at Yang Wengan's back and said dissatisfiedly: "Shuai Dudu, the other party is so domineering." ”

Yu Zhenhu smiled coldly and said: "Those cavalry troops are neat, well-equipped, and not chaotic, and they are elite troops at a glance, but all elites must be arrogant in their bones, and it is the norm to look down on people." ”

"Besides, our troops are mainly infantry, and if they force their way into the valley, we will definitely not be able to stop them."

The black-faced officer said, "Governor Shuaidu, then shall we just let them enter the valley?" ”

Yu Zhenhu said angrily: "Otherwise, what else can I do?" ”

"But ......"

Yu Zhenhu asked, "The people of the Governor's Mansion, can you and I afford to provoke you?" ”

"Besides, you don't know that General Yu has always had a grudge against Lord Pei Wen'an of the Governor's Mansion, and since the other party claims to be Lord Pei Wen'an's general, he must be a subordinate of Lord Pei Wen'an, so why should we prevent them from entering the valley."

"Shuai Dudu is right."

"The road in the valley is not easy to walk."

Subsequently, Yu Zhenhu gave the order: "Pass the order, the whole army will strengthen its vigilance, and no one is allowed to enter or leave the valley." Whoever comes out of the valley is to be shot. ”

"Command!"

Yu Zhenhu looked at the cavalry team that was gradually moving away, and a cold gaze flashed in his eyes.

As soon as he walked out of the barracks, Sima Jiu vaguely felt a chill behind him, and he felt like a man on his back, so he hurriedly turned his head and glanced at the barracks he had just passed.

Outside the barracks, there was a trench about three meters wide, and about two meters behind the trench, there was a horse-repellent pile made of sharpened wooden piles.

Behind the horse stake, there is the barracks fence, on which many vigilant sergeants are stationed.

Between the fences, there is an arrow tower every four or five meters, and there are many crossbow arrows ready to be fired on the arrow tower.

"Good boy, uncle, why do I feel that this is the front of the barracks?"

Sima Jiu was puzzled by the layout of the barracks.

The defense of the side of the barracks facing the valley seems to be tighter than the front of the barracks.

Didn't the leader of this army know how to set up a camp defense?

Wang Qi pondered: "Perhaps, they are guarding against the direction of the valley. ”

When Li Jiancheng heard this, he was also worried, and then ordered: "The terrain here is dangerous, the whole army is on alert, and quickly pass through the valley." ”

"Command!"

In the valley, it's quiet, it's so quiet that it's frighteningly quiet.

It wasn't until Li Jiancheng and his entourage galloped past that the silence in the valley was broken.

"General, this valley is about thirty miles long, and our army can pass through the valley in half an hour."

"Good!"

"Drive!"

At this moment, a vanguard sentinel cavalry galloped in.

"Will ....... General, there is a situation ahead. ”

With that, the cavalryman fell from his horse and fell to the ground.

On his back, three arrows pierced his soft armor.

Yang Wengan quickly dismounted, stretched out his hand to probe the breath of the cavalry, and after confirming that the cavalry was dead, he shook his head at Li Jiancheng expressionlessly.

Then, he pulled out an arrow and looked at it in front of his eyes, and suddenly, his brow furrowed slightly.

Seeing this, Sima Jiu dismounted and walked to Yang Wengan's side, and when he took the arrow and his eyes fell on the crescent-shaped pattern on the arrow, his face changed greatly.

Sima Jiu gritted his teeth and said, "Blood Moon Killer Group!" ”

Li Jiancheng immediately realized that the situation was not good, and immediately ordered: "The whole army is in a defensive formation and marches forward in formation. ”

Soon, the cavalry team followed Li Jiancheng's order and changed formation.

Seeing that Yang Wengan was still reluctant to support the dead soldiers, Wang Qi reminded: "General Yang, the military situation is urgent. ”

Yang Wengan said angrily: "The last general understands! ”

Yang Wengan immediately mounted his horse, and rode to the front of the formation, drew his long sword, and led the team forward.

Soon, when they reached a clearing, they stopped.

About a hundred meters in front of them, there was a group of black-clothed cavalry, about eighty or ninety horsemen.

Behind the black-clad cavalry was a half-man barricade made of wooden crates.

Behind the barricade, there were about 200 black-clothed people, among them, more than 30 black-clothed people in the front row were armed with crossbow arrows.

Yang Wengan said: "The other party is a member of the Blood Moon Killer Group, and the number is about three hundred. ”

"Blood Moon Killers! It's really a narrow road! ”

The enemy's eyes were red when he saw him, and while he was talking, Li Jiancheng slowly pulled out his long sword.

Seeing this, Wang Qi admonished: "General, there must be many masters among the Blood Moon Killers of this scale, and our army's top priority is to rush to Pingyao, and it is not appropriate to entangle with the Blood Moon Killers here." ”

"Uncle Brother means rush over."

"Our army is all cavalry, and it is not difficult to rush through it."

"But ......"

Li Jiancheng hesitantly glanced sideways at Sima Jiu, only to see Sima Jiu glaring at the Blood Moon Killer opposite.

After a few breaths, Sima Jiu said, "General Li, don't worry, I will obey your orders." ”

So, Li Jiancheng raised his long sword, pointed directly at the Blood Moon Killer on the opposite side, and ordered: "The whole army listens to the order, attacks the enemy, and passes quickly." ”
