The fall of Beigong Boyu represents the complete recovery of the Hetao lost during the Huan Emperor period, coupled with the Shangjun of the state, as long as Guanzhong takes advantage of the situation to seize the west of the West River, then Guanzhong is equivalent to having control of the Hetao, and it also marks that the Guanzhong forces officially border Xianbei, if there is a war, it means that Guanzhong has to choose between opening up the territory and losing the territory.

After three days of rest and recuperation, coupled with Long Jun's extreme control, the epidemic imagined by Guan Zhongjun did not come. Occasionally, a few people with a cold and flu were also cured by the doctors hired by Dian Wei. However, even after three days, Long Jun did not let go of this group of soldiers, as long as the temperature has not risen, the Guanzhong army must drink the boiled coptis water, so the entire Guanzhong army does not know the taste of food when eating every day, and the mouth is full of bitterness.

A heavy rain finally receded on the fifth day, looking at the rainbow in the sky, Long Jun squatted at the door of the mansion and smelled the fresh smell after the rain, and ordered the Guanzhong army to calculate the harvest of this battle. He took people to the pasture at the foot of the Beiyi Mountain and began to prepare for the construction of the horse farm. As for Lian County, he had already sent Tong Fei and Dian Wei to go, presumably Li Jin had already left Lian County at this time, and left the 3,000 soldiers and horses in the city.

At the end of October, Long Jun, who was in Lingwu, received a report from Chang'an, and after learning where there was a problem in the Western Regions, Long Jun hurriedly called Dian Wei to order his whole army to prepare to leave Lingwu, and asked Tong Fei to take Mo Lan and others to the Western Regions first to find out the situation in its Qiancheng, and then Long Jun called Xia Yang, the deputy commander of the 3,000 army in Lian County.

Staring at Xia Yang, who was sitting precariously in the hall, Long Jun smiled and asked, "When Li Jin left, did he say anything other than asking you to wait for my reception?" According to me, you are all a group of Jianghu people, how did you become Nanhua's private army? ”

Hearing Long Jun's question, Xia Yang stood up solemnly and saluted Long Jun, and then explained softly, "Back to the Hou Ye, when the fourth prince left, he only explained that we were waiting for you in Lian County, and I didn't say much about the reason!" As for our origins, we are basically people from the rivers and lakes who are wanted by the imperial court, and we committed something in our hometown and don't want to occupy the mountain as the king, so we joined the army of the immortal master. Over the years, it has also relied on the relationship between the immortal master and Beigong Boyu that we have a place to live. ”

"I see!" Knowing that this group of people were all rangers who provoked the government, the stone in Long Jun's heart slowly fell. Speaking from the heart, anyone who is inexplicably stuffed with 3,000 troops will be suspicious in their hearts, and the two sides are still hostile, how can Long Jun accept these people with peace of mind.

However, after learning that the other party's origin is related to the government, Guanzhong's side can use Skynet to find out the origin of these people to determine if there is a problem. After all, these 3,000 men and horses are comparable to 5,000 Blazing Sky Army, if they are disbanded, not to mention that Long Jun is reluctant, I am afraid that no commander in the world will be reluctant.

After a pause, Long Jun took out an arrow from the bucket on the table, then got up and walked to Xia Yang, threw the arrow to the other party, and said softly, "From today onwards, you will set up a battalion of your own, and you will be stationed near Beiyi Mountain for Benhou, and I will send someone to you every month to send military supplies, and your task is to keep an eye on Xianbei in the north of Beiyi Mountain, and once you find any abnormal movement from the other party, write a letter to report immediately." ”

"Whoa!" Seeing that Long Jun not only did not disband them, but also arranged tasks and places for them to go, Xia Yang looked excited. Although they had previously been hostile to the Guanzhong army. But no soldier in the world can refuse the acceptance of the Guanzhong Army, especially their rootless duckweed.

On the second day, the prepared Guanzhong army began to slowly withdraw from this place and return to Chang'an from the river, while Long Jun took Long Huwei and Xia Yang and others to enter Beiyi Mountain again, preparing to enter the Xianbei section of Hexi, and walked to Yanze to enter the Western Regions, and went straight behind the Che Division.

On the way, because the Xianbei tribe near Liangzhou had basically been plundered by the Qiang tribe, when they saw the five thousand Dragon and Tiger Guard soldiers, they were all curious. Of course, there are also many tribes who are hostile to Long Jun and them, but considering the combat strength of the two sides, the Xianbei people do not dare to offend Long Huwei at all.

However, a few days later, when Long Jun accidentally met several slaves who looked like Han Chinese in a small tribe, the anger in Long Jun's heart was instantly ignited. But because this is not the time to do anything with Xianbei, in desperation, Long Jun said to Dian Wei in a low voice, "Go and ask how much silver you need to redeem these people, let the brothers make up for it, and when they return to Chang'an, I will exchange it for you." ”

"Got it, lord." So Dian Wei found two people who knew Xianbei language, walked up to the Xianbei man who drove the Han slaves, and asked the price of the slaves. But this Xianbei man had already been frightened by the morale of Long Huwei, how dare he ask Dian Wei for money, and hurriedly handed over the rope tied to the slave to Dian Wei. But Dian Wei was not stupid, knowing that Long Huwei couldn't cause trouble at this time, so he shouted in a deep voice, "I'll let you say a price, Lao Tzu is not a bandit, come to you to rob people." ”

Without waiting for the soldiers of the Dragon Tiger Guard to translate, the slaves hurriedly shouted, "General, please save us, one person only needs ten gold, ten gold!" When we return to our hometown, we will definitely send the money to the general's mansion. ”

Listening to the pleading voices of the slaves, Dian Wei glanced at the Han men dissatisfiedly, muttering rubbish in his mouth. Then let the people go back to the team and throw fifty gold into the hands of this Xianbei man, and bring these slaves back to Long Jun. Originally, it was a woman with a cloak, but I didn't expect it to be five big men, after glancing at the weak hands and feet of several people, Long Jun hurriedly waved his hand to signal them to leave on their own, and the province was an eyesore in front of Long Huwei.

After thanking them for their kindness, a few people left in a hurry, looking at the backs of the five people returning to the south, Dian Wei snorted angrily, "What the hell, there are five people here, and they don't dare to do anything to that group of Xianbei barbarians, and they are men in vain." ”

"If you can help, you can help, after all, it is the people, and it is not a soldier like us, we have been persecuted for a long time, and it is reasonable to be afraid." Saying that, Long Jun shook his head at Dian Wei, and then turned his gaze to the west, with a worried look on his face. Since you can meet the Han people who have been taken captive here, it means that this place is not far from Juyanze, and the Xianbei tribe stationed nearby is very likely to be the main tribe of Xianbei in Hexi.

So Long Jun pointed forward with a horsewhip, and said in a deep voice, "Pass the order, the whole army will enter a state of combat readiness, scouts will control the situation within a radius of fifty miles, and once a large-scale tribe of Xianbei is found, it will be reported immediately, without delay." ”

If it is in the Central Plains, this range of fifty miles can still be controlled, but at the intersection of this grassland and desert, let alone fifty miles, even thirty miles and twenty miles are not easy to control, once the sense of direction is lost, the scouts can only explain in this vast wilderness. However, the Guanzhong Army has always been known for its strict military regulations, and the military order is like a mountain, so Dian Wei had no choice but to follow this order.

Fortunately, Long Jun also knew that the soldiers of the Dragon Tiger Guard had basically not experienced the grassland war, so he taught them how to use wild grass to discern the direction. After understanding that he could also use plants to discern the direction, the scouts of Long Huwei all looked at Long Jun with a kind of admiration, which made Long Jun cry and laugh.

Sure enough, on the third day, when they arrived at Juyanhai in the evening, the Dragon Tiger Guard scouts brought back an urgent news that nearly 10,000 Xianbei cavalry appeared near Juyanhai with unknown intentions. Hearing this news, there was an uproar in the tent, although the Dragon Tiger Guard also belonged to the cavalry team, but in the face of the steppe cavalry skilled in archers and horses, after all, it was powerless.

Even the Hun Ren Dian Wei in Su Ri was very worried about this, so he suggested to Long Jun, "My lord, do you want to send a letter to Wu Wei first, so that the local garrison can rush to help Juyanhai?" Hold on for a while, and after we finish cleaning up the chaotic party in the Western Regions, gather the main force to fight these barbarians? ”

"Forget it, I know the combat power of the local army, and it is not the opponent of this group of Xianbei people at all, rather than letting the local army send its head to the opponent's knife as a military merit, it is better for me to wait here to stop it for a while. Then asked Gongming to lead people to clean up this group of Xianbei people. Shaking his head and rejecting Dian Wei's proposal, Long Jun crossed his fingers and muttered, "The Blazing Sky Army has entered Xiqiang and is advancing westward along the Kunlun Mountains, Meng Qi and they are recovering the area south of Puchanghai, if the Western Regions are really as Gong Daxin said, it is a mess of porridge, then this group of Xianbei people is very likely to force our army to withdraw in exchange for the integration time of the Cheshi Zone." So no matter what the other party's purpose is, we must take the move, buy time for Komeito, and then enter the Western Regions. ”

"Does the lord mean that the other party is saving Zhao in Wei Wei? But Meng Qi's main direction of attack is its Qiancheng, and the Cheshi didn't do it here, why are they Xianbei people in such a hurry? Could it be that Xianbei and its Qiancheng have reached some kind of agreement in secret? ”

Hearing this, Long Jun glanced at Tong Fei approvingly, nodded his head and said, "I don't rule out this possibility, but I feel that there are more wise people among the Xianbei people who know our purpose, so they made such a decision, and with a cold attitude, they forced our army to withdraw from the Western Regions, after all, compared to its Qiancheng, our Guanzhong army is the biggest threat." ”

After a pause, Long Jun swept the captains of the battalions in the tent and said in a deep voice, "I can't say anything to boost morale in this situation, so I won't say it." But I want to be strict with you, in the next month, our army will be nailed to Juyanhai here, to buy time for Chang'an's reinforcements, after you return to the camp, explain to the soldiers under your subordinates who are afraid of death and leave as soon as possible, otherwise the time will break and flee and disturb the hearts of our army. ”

"Wow. We will live up to the trust of the Lord. ”

Knowing the seriousness of this matter, how dare Captain Longhuwei slack off. Especially as Long Jun's pro-army, after the news was transmitted to the battalions that night, no one was willing to flee at this time, and some even ran to the door of Long Jun's handsome tent to show their loyalty.

But at this time, Long Jun had already taken Tong Fei and followed the scouts who found the Xianbei Army to leave the Dragon Tiger Guard camp, who knew that the Dragon Tiger Guard camp was already full of war spirit at this moment.

With the footsteps of Ryoma, after a stick of incense, Long Jun appeared near the Xianbei military camp, looking at the camp stretching for thousands of tents, Long Jun exhaled a breath of turbidity, and whispered to the scout, "You wait for us here, let's go into the camp and have a look, remember that if I don't return after an hour, you don't have to wait for me to leave this place quickly." ”

"My lord, this...."

"Don't talk nonsense, just follow my orders, I'm very familiar with assassination!" Without waiting for the scout to react, Long Jun glanced at Tong Fei, and the two immediately ran to the Xianbei camp in the distance, killing intent.
