Mao Muzhi's worries are not unreasonable, has this kind of thing happened less in history? There is still a need to worry about this kind of problem between the two friendly forces, not to mention that Jiang Zuo and Yan are enemies now. Originally, there were few soldiers and horses in Luoyang City, and the other party came in a big way, so it was strange if they didn't worry. Therefore, the other party's letter was sent, and it did not dispel the doubts of the three people.

However, Murong Chui didn't have to write this letter in the first place. I think he should be afraid that we will attack him from behind when he attacks the Huashan army. Therefore, I will send the letter first, firstly, to show its purpose, and on the other hand, I am afraid that it is also to deter us! After all, if he had told us in advance, if we were still fighting him with the Huashan Army, he might really come to Luoyang! After thinking for a while, Chen Wu said.

The so-called salute before the soldier means that I have already told you that what you want to do has nothing to do with you, and if you get involved, don't blame me if something goes wrong!

If Huan Wen is here, I'm afraid he will disdain it.

But Mao Muzhi and the three of them couldn't be cautious, after all, when the troops were insufficient, they didn't dare to take the initiative to provoke each other. If there is a tacit understanding between the two sides, it is excellent.

It was based on this consideration that the three of them were unwilling to leave an excuse for Murong Chui to let him use the topic to play and find an excuse to attack Luoyang. In fact, this is the ostrich mentality of the three of them, thinking that if they don't provoke each other, the other party will not come to beat them.

Judging from the current general trend of the world, if there is a war between Jiang Zuo and Yan State, there is no need for a name at all, let alone a famous division. What's more, it's just a Luoyang City.

"There are many people on the other side, we can't believe it if we don't believe it! If it comes to now, it is better to repair a letter to reply to him, as long as they don't attack the counties under the rule of the imperial court, we don't care what they do! What do you think? Thinking about coming and going, Mao Muzhi proposed.

"That's it! It's just that in this case, I'm afraid that Huashanjun's side will have a lot of complaints about us in the future! After all, Murong Chui's army passed by our side after all! Hearing this, Dasch nodded, but sighed.

"I can't care so much, if the Huashan Army returns to the imperial court, as ministers of the imperial court, we naturally have to save it! But they are just separating one side and arrogant people, and if we don't fight them, we will already be magnanimous! Hearing him say this, Chen Wu said disdainfully.

"No matter what, then Li Xin and the general have a friendship after all. Moreover, with the Huashan army by his side, it is better than Yan Guo occupying Hongnong. Although we can't solve this matter, we should report it to the general immediately! Dai Shi knew what he meant, and after thinking for a while, he said.

"Well, let's do it! It's important for us to stick to our city, and as for what to do in the future, it's up to the general to decide! Mao Muzhi listened, nodded, and the matter was decided.

In Heyin County, Murong Chui's army had already crossed the Yellow River as soon as possible, and at this time, they were preparing to go. And at this time, the messenger sent by Mao Muzhi and them arrived.

"Hahahaha! General Ben has said a long time ago, how dare those Jin people stop us? You see, isn't this epistle a sign of weakness and obedience? It's time for a big deal! We can go to Nanling Pass with confidence! After reading the letter, Murong Chui immediately laughed, raised the letter in his hand, and said to the generals beside him.

The general was like a god, and he had already guessed the reaction of the defenders of Luoyang City. Since they don't dare to stop us, why don't we quickly march into the army and kill under Nanling Pass as soon as possible, so as not to make preparations for the Huashan army over there? This is good news, making everyone seem to see the credit in front of them, and everyone compliments Murong Chui and wants to enter the army quickly.

"Having said that, we still have to do what we need to do. After all, if the Jin people do any tricks, we will be caught off guard and in trouble! The order was passed down, and the army was divided into three armies, the front, the middle and the rear, with 2,000 men and horses each in the front and rear, and the rest in the middle. The armies were separated by a mile, passed outside Luoyang City, and went to Nanling Pass! After being happy, Murong Chui's expression became serious and ordered.

He did this, in fact, to prevent the Jin army in Luoyang City from suddenly killing them when they passed by. The Chinese army has the largest number of troops, and the three armies are separated by a certain distance, so even if the Jin army wants to sneak attack, it will not find a chance.

Heyin County is located on the bank of the Yellow River in the northwest of Luoyang County, and Nanling Pass is still more than 300 miles west of Heyin County. If it was common sense, he should have gone directly from the west of Heyin County to attack Nanling Pass, and he didn't have to run southeast to Luoyang County first.

But the fact is that to the northwest of Luoyang is the Pi Mountain, which reaches the edge of the Yellow River in the west! In this day and age, it would be very difficult for an army to cross the mountain directly.

But it's different from Luoyang, after all, Luoyang was the capital of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the surrounding transportation facilities have been built for many years. Compared to the mountains and forests of the wilderness, the conditions were much better.

The road leading west from Luoyang to Guanzhong must pass through Hongnong County. From Luoyang to the west all the way through, and finally through the Hangu Pass, Tongguan, and then ~ into the pass, this is the passage that has existed since ancient times.

Since there are two mountain ranges to the west of Luoyang, the north is the Pishan Mountain and the south is the Kunshan Mountain, and these two mountain ranges are almost east-west.

In addition, the Luoshui in the south and the valley water in the north also run east-west. This also determined the road from Luoyang to Guanzhong, and in ancient times, it could only follow these two rivers and then pass between the two mountains.

Because there is the famous Hangu Pass on this passage, and the role of Tongguan in the Qin and Han dynasties is obviously not as good as that of Hangu Pass! Therefore, when this passage passed, it was called the Cuihan Ancient Road!

The ancient road connects Luoyang and Guanzhong, which is more than 400 miles long, but there are more than 300 miles in Hongnong County, accounting for more than half. Therefore, the strategic position of Hongnong County is extraordinary!

In particular, the river basin between Shaanxi County and Heyin County is almost impassable by boats. The communication between Luoyang and Guanzhong can only pass by land, which must take the Cuihan Ancient Road.

The ancient road is divided into two roads, north and south, the north road is from Luoyang to the west, along the valley water, but also roughly along the direction of the North Mountain. After passing through Kip Shi Pass, it entered Shaanxi County, which was later Sanmenxia City.

In the case of the South Road, it also started from Luoyang, but it went west along Luoshui, and then after passing Yiyang County, it turned north to Nanling Pass. That is, the last time Li Xin inspected, the road he took when he went to Nanling Pass from Shangluo County.

And these two roads finally converged in Shaanxi County, and finally merged into a road to Tongguan.

But what I want to say here is that before the two ancient roads converged in Shaanxi County, there was a southbound road more than 20 miles long outside Kip Shi Pass, which led to the outside of Nanling Pass, connecting these two ancient roads.

That is to say, whether it is a person who goes to Guanzhong in the west or a person who goes to Luoyang in the east, no matter which ancient road they walk on, they can actually change direction outside Nanling Pass.

That Kip Stone Pass is located more than 20 miles away from the north of Nanling Pass, and it is a north and a south just guarding the gate of Shaanxi County, which is the place where Qin and Shaanxi are divided. At the same time, this is also the place where Chen Kang defended, and Nanling Pass is a defensive system.

If Murong Chui's army took the Nankun Han Road, although it could directly reach Nanling Pass, this distance would be much farther. Therefore, he will naturally choose to take the north road. In this way, when he arrives at Kip Shi Pass, he can divide his troops to attack both Kip Shi Pass and Nanling Pass at the same time.

As long as any of these two passes are broken through, then he can lead the army commander ~ drive ~ straight ~ into and kill outside the county seat of Shaanxi County. If even the county seat of Shaanxi County is lost, it means that the entire Hongnong County is in danger, and Hedong and Tongguan are also greatly threatened.

And if you start from Luoyang and rush to Kip Shiguan, it is only more than 200 miles.

When Murong Trai led the army to the outside of Luoyang City, Mao Muzhi and the others were highly nervous, and personally stood on top of the city to lead the troops to defend, just because they were afraid that Murong Trai would suddenly change his mind and attack Luoyang City instead.

Seeing an army of more than 10,000 people passing under the city, the Jin soldiers at the head of the city turned pale, and some of them were even trembling. The soldiers of the Yan Army under the city laughed when they saw their appearance.

"If the Jin people are like this, the land of Jiangzuo will be taken by the imperial court sooner or later!" After Murong Trai saw it, he said to the general beside him.

"That's nature! It's just that this is only a part of the soldiers, and I don't know how the others are! General, since they are so prohibited, I think if the attack on Nanling Pass and other places goes smoothly this time, it is better to take this Luoyang by the way on the way back! A general hurriedly said.

"Be careful! There are many people here, and General Ben doesn't want any chaos to happen at this time, which will affect our big things! Hearing this, Murong Chui suddenly sank his face and said.

"Yes, yes, yes, it's the last general who is too talkative!" When the general heard this, he hurriedly laughed.

The army passed quickly, and although the situation between them was a little delicate, it was all right after all.

After Murong Chui's army had all passed, the three of Mao Muzhi at the head of the city couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately, Murong Trai is still trustworthy and didn't come to attack us! However, you can't let your guard down yet, in case the other party suddenly comes back! After looking at it for a while, seeing that the other party was nowhere to be seen, Mao Muzhi said.
