Chapter 410: Outside the Yanmen Pass

Li Sizhao met with Zhou Dewei. Li Sizhao was suddenly ashamed. Without saying a word, he handed Zhou Dewei a military staff. Request a cane penalty.

Duan Mingyu hurriedly stepped forward and said peacefully: "Why should the two generals be like this. It's all for Hedong. It is necessary to work together to support the King of Jin to defend the east of the river."

Zhou Dewei abandoned the military tent staff. Help Li Sizhao." What King Zhao said is very true." The two will look at each other and smile. Relieve each other's suspicions. Happy as ever.

Juwen was defeated. After fleeing to Cangzhou, only 70,000 horses remained. The Tang army did not pursue to the city of Cangzhou. The east side of the river is attacked on three sides. Now the biggest enemy is the Khitan. Secondly, Liu Rengong.

Ten thousand horsemen. The wind-like roll of the autumn rì outside the earth

Heavy rain and early fog. The road is slowly drying. Horseshoe trampling. It's just mud splashing around.

This is a team of pure light riders. One man and two horses. In addition to the war horse, there is also a pack horse. Just march forward with the degree of brigade marching. Anything that is not on the battlefield requires vigorous maneuvering. Outflanking the run. Cavalry is not much faster than infantry. Horses are grass bellies. Only by eating horse feed can you have strength. Letting go is just keeping the horse alive.

And it doesn't matter the war horses and pack horses. They are delicate animals that need to be taken care of very much. Horses' hooves need to be protected. Pay attention to sweating and sweating. The horse's waist can not be worn out and injured. In addition, horses need to wipe their eyes frequently to prevent them from blurring. At the end of the day, it takes a lot of time to take care of the horses.

Although there are more animals that are more adapted to the environment than horses. Requires less care. However, compared to the stability of horse riding, the degree of the war horse, and the impact that the war horse can provide when it explodes, human beings can only choose this kind of animal that is much more delicate than imagined as the most important help in the war between humans.

Outside the Yanmen Gate. Originally, the road was full of mountains in Gubeikou. But there are still countless mountain trails. Later generations did not repair the Great Wall. Winding city walls. There is a lot of decadence. Although Yanmen Pass controls the most convenient passage for the movement of the army. But elsewhere. Still need to be taken care of.

Originally, the people and horses that should have been called the Jin Army are now all big Tang characters. Hedong. It's no longer the unscrupulous feudal town it used to be. It's part of Datang. The real Son of Heaven Domain. Li Siyuan commanded 10,000 horsemen. The sentinels are scattered. The former army was originally going to play the role of reconnaissance jǐng ring protection. It's not a sincere battle with the Khitans who come to fight here. Therefore, this jǐng ring curtain is also very large.

Li Siyuan has always volunteered to seize the task of the most important passage outside the Yanmen Pass. Zhou Dewei argued. But looking at Li Siyuan's resolute attitude. Just laugh and laugh. Zhou Dewei is also an old man who rolled out of the army. How can you not know behind Li Siyuan's now silent appearance. The heart of self-efficacy is like fire. He really wanted to prove himself.

Zhou Dewei also hesitated slightly. Although Li Siyuan was promoted very quickly under Li Keyong's care before. But the experience is shallow. The most important task of the Northern Resistance to the Khitan was entrusted to him. In the end, he can not handle it. But I saw Li Siyuan's pursed lips. And unusually determined eyes. Let Zhou Dewei smile and nod.

Li Siyuan did not stop all the way. Go straight to Yanmen Pass. Let your own sentry out and go far away. Posterior. After Duan Mingyu pacified Luzhou. also waved north. The Khitan was an army of 300,000. The Khitan people grew up in bitter cold lands. Brilliant combat power. Li Siyuan only has 30,000 horses. This gap is not insignificant. Even if it can be blocked for a while. If there are no reinforcements in the back road. Then the Yanmen Pass will be broken sooner or later. The gate of the wild goose was broken. Then on the Shanxi Plain. The Khitan will drive straight in. There is no barrier in the slightest.

At that time. The soldiers will go straight to the city of Jinyang. Zhou Dewei took the overall situation into account and gave this most important task to Li Siyuan. I think I only served in the Hedong Army when I first came to work. When it was on its debut. The look in his eyes is not like this.

When Li Cunxiao fought with Liu Rengong in Weizhou. When he shows his invincible appearance. Li Siyuan's heart is not hot.

Why did Li Cunqiao go south and then north. Why save Luzhou first. Then let Duan Mingyu raise more than 200,000 troops to rescue Yanmen Pass. Why do you look indifferent to the defense of Weizhou? Wait until you have cleaned up the other two rivals before supporting Li Cunxiao. Because the name of Li Cunxiao was killed with one knife and one shot. A truly invincible demeanor. There he is. Even if Weizhou is lost. It can also give Liu Rengong a heavy blow. So that even if he captures Weizhou, he will not be able to defend it.

This time. Duan Mingyu is also leading the team to struggle in the muddy mountain road. After a heavy rain. The road is difficult to navigate. Rain and fog spread all over the four fields. Even if it is located on the top of the mountain, it is far from the sky. I can't see how far away. Everybody was running in mud. Sometimes in order to save horsepower, it is necessary to dismount and walk. Everybody in armor. This walk is doubly harder. None of the knights could see the metallic appearance of the armor. It's like a warrior wrapped in mud.

Compared with following other generals, everyone dares to be a little jailer, following Duan Mingyu, the big guy, but he doesn't dare to complain for half a word.Literati background.Military start-up.His Majesty's henchmen.The old Jin King's appreciation of the military talents.The quadruple identity is enough to dazzle.Although the limelight is now snatched away by Li Cunqiao, who is "born as a son like Li Yazi". However, Duan Mingyu volunteered to go to this most difficult place to take on the responsibility of guarding. The soldier sighs that he is unlucky. But there is no one in my heart who does not admire. More than 200,000 troops are on the march. Duan Mingyu was worried that Li Siyuan would not be able to support himself, and he would rush to Yanmen Pass and lose it. So anxious.

Outside the Yanmen Gate. Li Siyuan led the horse like his subordinates. Just walk ahead. He was followed by his son-in-law Shi Jingjiao. This kid can't stand it. Although the concession can ride a horse. It's just that I can't straighten up right on the horse. It looks like the bones are going to fall apart. Looks like he's also infected with some wind chill. Face sècháo red. But the gas sè is okay. Still a nonchaliant look. Shi Jingjiao has the heart to make a contribution. Earn a place in the military. But the bones of the body can't be good after all.

All of a sudden. Li Siyuan dropped the reins. Climb up to a mound of dirt on the side of the road. Look in the direction of the valley road that leads directly to Yanmen Pass. Tightly frowning. Don't say a word. Behind him, the soldiers watched Li Siyuan behave like this. One by one though it is already jīng exhausted. But they all got up. They all pressed down on their sabers at their waists. Look at each other in pairs. One. They're all listening. But they couldn't hear anything.

Polar eyes look around. The mountain road is filled with water vapor after rain. The mountains in front of him and behind him. Standing dangerously, the Great Wall winds behind him. Undulating in the mountains.
