According to historical records, Shenguang was one hundred and four years, in the early spring of March, after Emperor Jialong personally led the army of the middle road to join the Yaojia border army, he and the main army of Beihu launched a protracted battle in the open plain area of fifty miles outside Jiatong Pass, and the two sides suffered countless casualties, and finally the embroidered fox Murong Yanran took the initiative to order a retreat and temporarily stopped the battle.

The Battle of Jiatongguan also officially opened the era of heavy armor infantry against cavalry, which made the heavy armored infantry truly recognized by later generations of soldiers, and then also made the world understand the new tactics of cracking the nomadic cavalry.

The soul of the soldier is buried in the north, there are many widows in the divine light, how many people have come back to fight in ancient times?

Lingwu Hou Bai Juque and Pingkang Wang Youqi have already received the battle report from Jiatong Pass, just by seeing the number of casualties on both sides, they can already imagine what kind of tragic hand-to-hand battle it was. When King Pingkang first saw the scene of the destruction of Shuofang City, he did not want to lead the army to support Jiatong Pass. But in the end, I still believe that the middle army led by my father should be able to rush to Jiatong Pass in time, and the soldiers and horses of the left army on the Western Front still need to divide their troops to garrison Shuofang, and reconnect with Jiatong Pass and Jingyuan to form a defensive triangle formation.

The battle situation information of this battle also shocked the Beihu royal court, thinking that for more than 20 years, the Beihu iron cavalry went south, plundered the Quartet, and killed countless people in the crossing, and never heard of the Shenguang army going out of the city to fight head-on, and it was in the open area of the Long'er's Eye Grassland to show the formation, the cavalry on both sides caught and killed each other, especially when they saw the terrible combat power of the Shenguang heavy armor foot soldiers, which made many big people feel cold.

For a while, everyone in the royal court was arguing, and they were also slandered for His Majesty's efforts to eliminate the controversy and use the embroidered fox Murong Yanran. But the ministers only dared to criticize in private, and no one dared to publicly accuse in the royal court. After all, compared to the battle damage of Beihu, the Shenguang army can be described as seriously injured.

Even if you don't mention the king's favor, just the Beihu Bingzu Gu standing behind the embroidered fox Murong Yanran is enough to shut everyone up. Bingzu Valley has always had few disciples, and the heirs are not generals, and now the three main commanders of Beihu are both descendants of Bingzu Valley. Thinking of the cowardly army that was still quelling the rebellion of the Yunqiang tribe in the northwest, everyone felt that the current war was just an appetizer.

Embroidered Fox Murong Yanran naturally knew that he had encountered a strong opponent, the Green Water Battalion was fully launched, collecting intelligence, and secretly fighting with Shenguang Niu Ma Lan a few times, and when it was confirmed that it was Emperor Shenguang Jialong's personal expedition, the entire Beihu Royal Court was boiling. It seems that the plan of a hundred years can be accomplished overnight by taking off the head of Emperor Jialong, after all, this emperor who has sat firmly in the Shenguang Dynasty for more than 20 years has built the 15 state capitals of Shenguang like an iron bucket array, which is impermeable. If he dies, the world will be chaotic, and then it will be the best time for Beihu Tieqi to go south to fight for orthodoxy in the Central Plains.

After stabilizing the main army and setting up camp, Murong Yanran, the embroidered fox, immediately quietly returned to the Beihu Royal Court and Bingzu Valley. She understood that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but the 100,000 iron cavalry in her hand alone was not enough to eat the hundreds of thousands of Shenguang's army, and she already suspected that the 10,000 elite soldiers who attacked Pilun had all been wiped out. The battle was by no means limited to the fifty miles outside Jiatong Pass, but an even bigger storm swept across the grassland.

Although Bingzu Valley is rooted in Beihu, it is actually inherited from the orthodox soldiers in the Central Plains, and the ancestral court of the soldiers who exist in the legendary Wugong Mountain, watching from north to south. There are only two disciples in the past dynasties, and there are no more than ten named disciples, which happens to be a ten-year number, and this generation of disciples is particularly outstanding, only the disciples of the general level soldier soul are three, and the two descendants are the three main commanders of Beihu. Therefore, the Beihu royal court was very jealous of Bingzu Valley, even after several major families replaced the coach Tuoba Ye with Murong Yanran, they could only secretly write a book, attacking women in charge of the army, fearing that there would be a woman's benevolence, but they did not say a word about their military ability.

This trip made Murong Yanran very satisfied, and returned to the valley to harvest a lot, and the king personally issued an order, and the killers of the Bing Feng line in the Bingzu Valley were dispatched, vowing to take the head of Jialong Xiang and open the way for Beihu to go south to drink the Malongyuan River. It is necessary to know that in the world's martial arts, Beihu has six points, and occupies six seats on the list of great grandmasters, and three of these six great grandmasters are from Bingzu Valley, among which Murong Yanran's senior brother Huan Tan is one of the great grandmasters on the list. The ten great wizards of the Southwest Ghost Fang stole only one point with an act against the sky, and the remaining three points were scattered in the territory of Shenguang, which cannot but be said to have nothing to do with Shenguang's national system that has emphasized literature and light on military force for a hundred years.

In recent years, Huan Tan pacified more than 10 large and small rebellions in Beihu, and the bloody killings created a great reputation, crisscrossing the Western Regions, and moving to the extreme north, at this time, he cleaned up the Yunqiang rebellion in the northeast rear. It is said that Huan Tan set out on an expedition, not a single inch of grass was born, killing people's hearts in despair, and the ghosts and gods were disgusted, so it was named 'Ghost Cowardly Army'. Under the support of Bingzu Valley, General Huan Tan has already shown signs of slowly walking up to the Northern Hu Military God.

After Murong Yanran left Bingzu Valley, she returned home directly, and wrote to her senior brother Huan Tan, informing her that there should be an army of divine light in Pilun, otherwise she would definitely not quietly eat Yelu's 10,000 elite soldiers, after all, it was the team she carefully selected from the Beihu Iron Cavalry to attack Pilun with lightning intent on lightning. But now it is like a stone sinking into the sea, and not a single splash has been splashed, causing her plan to make a detour to attack Hejian Mansion aborted.

What made her even more reassuring was that no matter how stupid Yelu Chucai was, he shouldn't have sent a single ranger to report back to the Ming army. I think he Yelu Chucai was also born in a family of Northern Hu military generals, although he relied on Zuyin to follow the south, but he also climbed up step by step from the centurion. Now it seems that it is likely to be eaten by Bao Yuan, and thinking of this, she is very interested in meeting the commander of this Divine Light army. Once the main forces of the two armies in the middle reach a stalemate, perhaps this Shenguang powerhouse on the Eastern Front will be a key chess piece that will affect the entire battle situation.

And when the middle army and the Beihu iron cavalry fought outside Jiatong Pass, the left army of the western front marched to Gabu Lake Horse Farm under the leadership of Zekang Wang Youqi, on the way to the west there is a Chiyan City, the population of Chiyan City is less than 50,000, but there are several large-scale Xicha forces scattered around, so once gathered it is a large-scale combat force.

The red inkstone is located in the lower reaches of Gabu Lake, where water and grass are abundant. Because there is also the Xueling River, a tributary of the source of the Longyuan River, which flows here, gathers the merchants and travelers of various ethnic groups, and gradually forms the largest Gabu Lake corridor in Beihu, so the strategic supply role of the red inkstone in Youyun is more prominent.

Regarding the two operational plans of seizing Chiyan first and directly attacking Gabu Lake Racecourse, the two commanders of Lingwu, Hou Bai, Juque and Wang Youqi of Pingkang, had a big disagreement for the first time.

After all, the situation considered by the two was different, Lingwu Hou Lao was burden-bearing, not seeking merit but seeking no fault, insisting on going straight to Gabu Lake Horse Farm to complete the task of the western front assigned by the saint, and defeating the largest war horse breeding farm in Beihu.

The king of Pingkang took out the information provided by the Xiao family trading house, intending to persuade Bai Juque to make a detour to attack Chiyan first, and then take the Gabu Lake Racecourse. After all, last winter's snow disaster, a large number of cattle and sheep froze to death, and during the period of material shortage, the relationship between Chiyan City and the surrounding Sicha tribes was very tense, and even caused a disturbance that Chiyan City connived at the soldiers defending the city to go to the surrounding Sicha tribes to rob cattle and sheep.

If the Left Route Army of the Western Front pretended to be a soldier of Chiyan City at this time, first attacked the surrounding Sicha tribes, broke them one by one, and then besieged Chiyan, it would definitely be able to achieve miraculous results. Gabu Lake Racecourse does not have a strong force garrison, it is based on the Red Yan as a transit, if the Left Route Army captures the Red Yan City, Gabu Lake Horse Farm will be exposed to the attack range of the entire Western Front Army, the Left Route Army can attack and retreat and defend.

In fact, compared to the battlefield balance effect of seizing Gabu Lake Racecourse, defeating Chiyan City will inevitably attract Youyun to divide troops to support, and it will create better fighters for the middle road army at that time. Moreover, if the Gabu Lake corridor can be seized, the war can be nourished by war, and the guerrilla attack can be entrenched for a long time, it will definitely be more able to contain the main force of Beihu.

Moreover, for the Left Route Army, even if it could not gain a foothold in the Gabu Lake corridor, it could go further northwest to the Xueling Hetao area, where the various ethnic groups outside the Cypriots were mixed, and the Beihu troops were weakly garrisoned. More westward, there is also a Rouran Valley Hun tribe that has been causing trouble for Beihu all the year round, if it can get in touch with this department and attack in many places, it will naturally completely break the strategic balance of the western position of the Beihu Empire.

At the beginning, Emperor Jialong of Shulan Xuan admitted to the four commanders of the Eastern and Western Fronts that the plan could not catch up with the changes, and the fighters were fleeting, and the four were empowered to fight flexibly. After all, the general is outside, and the king's order is not affected, and perhaps the most critical moment depends on the commander-in-chief's strategic literacy and combat awareness. At this point, Bai Juque, who was born in the hairpin family, is indeed not as bold as Liu Zhilun, a Hanshi.

Although it is early spring, the ground is soft when stepping on the grass of Gabu Lake Horse Farm, and occasionally stagnant water slowly overflows from around the boots, which shows that the pasture here is rich in water and grass. There is no boundary between winter and spring, summer and autumn are connected, the climatic conditions are unique, and the glacial meltwater from Gabu Snow Mountain in summer is enough to irrigate the surroundings, and the underground reserves of the karez in winter can also cope with the off-season of water sources, so this place was selected as the palace of the Beihu royal court, and it is also the largest war horse ranch in the whole Beihu.

Gabu Lake Horse Farm is different from Shuofang and other places that are still struggling with the cold spring wind and snow, and is located in the valley area at the southern foot of Gabu Snow Mountain, benefiting from the altitude of Gabu Snow Mountain, the cold north wind is blocked, and a unique valley humid climate has been formed here. Especially after the beginning of spring every year, the ice and snow melt, and the whole valley is full of spring flowers. Therefore, the princes and nobles of Beihu all like to expand their camps here, and bring their wives and concubines here to spend spring. And this year's Beihu royal court suffered a severe spring cold, wind and snow, and drove a group of princes and nobles to Gabu Lake Racecourse, and it is rumored that the old queen mother of Beihu lingered here and lived for many months.

At this time, there was a fierce quarrel in the camp of the Left Route Army, Lingwu Hou's face was red, a few long beards floated up, the superior general was full of momentum, and King Pingkang's eyes were blazing, and between Gu Pan, the power was self-generated. The two had their own opinions for a while, and neither could convince the other. Therefore, King Pingkang proposed a strategy of dividing the troops, leaving a team of 30,000 light cavalry and a small number of infantry, led by him to fight guerrillas in the Gabu Lake corridor, and met the Lingwu Marquis at any time, and the other 60,000 people were all led by the commander Bai Juque to attack the Gabu Lake Horse Farm, and the two troops responded to each other to relieve the pressure of fighting alone.

The horse is the foundation of the armor and the important weapon of the country.

Shulan Xuan's monarchs and ministers played right, and naturally they couldn't avoid the study of North Huma's politics. In peacetime between the two countries, horses were the largest bazaar trade goods. In the era of invincible cavalry, horses can be said to be the most scarce strategic resources, if there are no horses, there is no way to form a cavalry army, let alone a strange tactic of running thousands of miles without a trace. The most important horse politics in Beihu is well known, large and small pastures are dotted, among which Gabu Lake Ranch produces the most horses, the best horse quality, more than 2,500 horses are produced, which can supply more than 500 horses, which can be supplied with 500 horses, which is a terrifying number in the Shenguang Imperial Court, you must know that although Shenguang has a total of seven shepherds in three prefectures, it is only comparable to this number, of course, the natural conditions of Shenguang Lingnan Ranch are inferior and the horse politics is an important reason.

Among the many horse farms in Beihu, Gabu Lake Ranch is the most, and even the Gabu Lake Corridor is also rich in good horses, so most of the cavalry supplies in Youyun City come from the western region centered on Chiyan City.

In fact, according to the spy information of the cattle and horses over the years, the total number of cavalry in Beihu has been hovering between 100,000 and 150,000, which is already the limit of the current national strength to support, otherwise Beihu can only support the 300,000 cavalry unless the breeding male horses and meat horses are sent to the military camp.

According to historical records, the Beihu Empire, which has always been crowned as "the most prosperous horse after Daduan", has only "600,000 horses" in the past 30 years. Even so, if you want to always maintain an elite cavalry, one person, two horses or even three horses, this is also an extremely terrifying consumption in Beihu, where the horse source is relatively abundant, and the consumption of horse grain and grass alone is a terrifying number. In comparison, the supply of horses for the Shenguang cavalry is stretched, so what Lingwu Hou remembers is how to sneak attack and eat the Gabu Lake Ranch, if he can send 10,000 Beihu Jia and other war horses to His Majesty's middle army, it is tantamount to adding wings to a tiger, and the blow to the Beihu cavalry is also the most deadly.

When he first heard of this strategy of dividing the troops, Bai Juque was still hesitant until King Pingkang proposed that he personally report to his father and the emperor, and he would bear all the responsibilities, and the Marquis of Lingwu saw that he insisted on it, so he had to nod and agree.

It is necessary to know that at this time, King Pingkang can have such confidence, on the one hand, he relies on the first-hand information provided by the Xiao Merchant House, and the merchant travelers and goods sellers come and go to and from large and small tribes to sell and trade, which is more down-to-earth than the intelligence of the ranger spies; On the other hand, it is the result of the deduction of Pang Yan, who accompanied the army in the account, and repeatedly pointed out that the marching route of the Western Front was dangerous, especially near the Gabu Lake Snow Mountain, the flow of air was obscure, combined with the situation of the entire battle situation, King Pingkang guessed that the Gabu Lake Horse Farm was probably not as empty as it seemed.

That night, Pang Yan and Pingkang Wang Youqi repeatedly deduced the development of the battle situation, Pang Yan talked about the trend of the world's fortune from the perspective of an outsider, and pointed out that Shenguang and Beihu were naturally more stable in this situation. However, due to the gap in the quality and combat power of the two sides, the core mission of the two armies on the eastern and western fronts should be able to win more space and time for the main force in the middle lane.

King Pingkang's vision has a long-term vision, in the final analysis, the dispute between Shenguang and Beihu, Youyun City and Gabu Lake Corridor and north of Pilun, the three battlefields will have their own victories and defeats, but the place that really determines the outcome of our battle is actually only Youyun City. Even if a series of trivial victories were fought on the battlefield on the Western Front, they were only adding to the Armageddon of the entire war situation. But if this place in Youyun City loses, the Shenguang Northern Expedition can basically only end in a hurry, and the more serious situation is that the Shenguang Dynasty may lose the orthodox trend of the Central Plains that has been accumulated by three generations.

Lingwu Hou carried out the will of the Holy Lord, and the army was dangerous, and he commanded 60,000 troops to go to Gabu Lake Horse Farm, and wanted to eat the largest horse breeding pasture in Beihu in one go, which was naturally not wrong, on the contrary, in a strategic sense, it can be called a surprise victory. However, the use of troops should always be in harmony, and we cannot win at one time and one place but lose the initiative. When Pang Yan was a teenager, he traveled to many places with his division, and every place he went to was a detailed dismantling and recounting of the battles that occurred in the last years of the Daduan Dynasty.

In the last years of the Daduan kings competing for hegemony, there have been many such unbelievable situations, obviously the generals won the big battle but caused the king to lose the ridiculous battle, before the battle of Hejian Mansion was finally divided, everyone in the outside world was optimistic about the king of Yanbei who had fought a series of small victories, but Taizu and his old man were fighting to complete the siege of Hejian Mansion with a sharp consumption of troops, and even did not hesitate to take a few troops and horses in an important but not critical battlefield, and took the initiative to lure most of the elite of the king of Yanbei to eat, Just to create the little gap that pulls the outer defense of Hejian Mansion, the battle of Wucheng where the old lady of Lingwu Hou Bai shined at the beginning of the year is a clear proof of this.

At this time, Lingwu Hou Bai Juque, I am afraid that he has long forgotten how his grandfather fought in Wucheng guerrilla, and finally tore open the mouth of the defense system of Hejian Mansion, so that the Shenguang army can find fighters, and gradually pull more of the main force of Tiefu Tu to passively fight a decisive battle. You must know that the old lady Bai was almost surrounded and annihilated by the Tiefu Tu of the King of Yanbei several times, and when he escaped, there were only a few soldiers left, but every time he came back to ask for soldiers, he still resolutely returned to Wucheng to guerrilla harassment, and this tactic finally caused the Tiefutu strategic mistake and failed to support the main force of the Yanbei Army.

And now the battle situation has evolved, and the local regional war has exceeded Emperor Jialong's prediction in Shulanxuan at the beginning. At least the victory of Liu Zhilun of the Right Route Army has already involved more of the center of gravity of Beihu, and at this time, it has created a better space for the left Route Army of the Western Front to conduct guerrilla depths. If the goal of seizing the Gabu Lake Horse Farm is still maintained, success will certainly be a great joy for all, but if it fails, it will reduce the combat strength of the light cavalry on the Western Front, and it will not be conducive to the development of the combat superiority of the light cavalry.

It is necessary to know that King Pingkang's grasp of the battle situation and his deduction and analysis of the battle situation on the eastern and western fronts can be called a classic guerrilla in-depth tactic in the eyes of later generations of soldiers. In particular, he put forward the theory that the strategic significance of the Gabu Lake Corridor is far better than that of the Gabu Lake Racecourse, and it has won the praise of the military ancestor Wugong Mountain, and it can be said that he is the best actual combat case of the evolution of the Jialong Emperor's siege point and reinforcement tactics in the local battlefield on the Western Front. It was also the 30,000 light cavalry and light armored infantry soldiers under his command as deputy commander, who single-handedly carried the banner of the entire Western Front with the guerrilla in-depth combat method when the commander fell on the Gabu Lake Racecourse battlefield.

Later generations commented that although the closing stage of the Northern Expedition was unsatisfactory, it did not prevent Liu Zhilun, the secretary of the military department, and Wang Youqi of Pingkang from shining as the glory of the double wall of divine light.

When Emperor Jialong received the fold of King Pingkang, it was already a critical period for the second confrontation between the main army of the middle road and the main force of the Beihu army, and at this time, the 200,000 army commanded by Emperor Jialong had advanced three hundred miles again, and several small-scale annihilation battles were fought along the way, and it was less than two hundred miles away from Youyun City, an important town in Beihu. After watching Youqi's depraving of the battle situation on the Western Front in the big tent, the saint had already approved the tactics of the guerrilla Gabu Lake corridor from the heart.

As for the implementation of the established strategic goals for the 60,000 army of Lingwuhou, the sneak attack on Gabu Lake Horse Farm is even more expected. It's just that the development of the battle situation caught Emperor Jialong and the Marquis of Lingwu, and even the entire eastern and western fronts off guard, and another of the three main forces of Beihu was stationed in the Gabu Lake Racecourse, although it was to protect the old Empress Dowager of Beihu and the royal family who had stepped on the spring, but who would have thought that the Wanghao Dragoon Army under the command of the Beihu Bingsheng would put the 60,000 troops of the Lingwu Marquis into the mouth of the cloth bag.

When King Pingkang led 30,000 light cavalry to sweep and eliminate the Si Xuan forces around Chiyan City one by one, the 60,000 troops led by Lingwu Hou all fell into the quagmire of Gabu Lake Horse Farm. The water of Gabu Lake was stained red with the blood of the Divine Light Soldiers, and it is said that even the herders of the lower reaches of the Xueling River smelled the blood in the river a few days later.

Just as Liu Zhilun and King Zekang on the Eastern Front completely annihilated the 10,000 elite soldiers of the Northern Hu who attacked the city of Qilun, the army of the King of Beihu also staged a drama of encirclement and annihilation tactics, but this time the object of encirclement and annihilation was more than 60,000 soldiers and horses of the Lingwu Marquis.

After the Shenguang light cavalry and heavy armored foot soldiers fell into the Gabu Lake Valley, they were not only passive but could be described as passive, they were simply struggling.

Who would have thought that the main force of Beihu, which is good at charging in open and deep depth, can still have such a delicate ambush tactic. Even the Marquis of Lingwu, who was deeply encircled, sighed and sighed before he died: "The commander of the enemy army arranges his troops in a tight formation, and the command is perfect and superb. ”

Who doesn't come, and who doesn't go? The fate of Bai Juque was not good, and the Gabu Lake Racecourse had the old queen mother of Beihu to go green, and at that time, he also invited the lord of Bingzu Valley Mu Laogu.

It is with such a delicate command that the Lord of Mu Gu, who is known as the Soldier of Beihu, separates and cuts the 60,000 troops of Lingwu Hou like a cow, and then breaks them into fragments after being circled, and breaks them one by one. Not to mention that the combat power of the Beihu Wang's Dragon Rider is far superior to that of the Lingwu Hou Department, but also under the delicate and dexterous command of the Bing Sheng, it completed the largest ambush battle in the history of the two countries' wars.

In particular, the terror of the old valley lord commanding many arms to participate in the battle made the generals of later generations have palpitations, and the military order of the Beihu Bingsheng can be said to be accurate to the head of every centurion, and the army changes shapes, advances and retreats freely, and truly reaches the realm of commanding the arm. The army of Lingwu Hou was wiped out in the snap of a finger, and it was this kind of classic command and teaching that completely tamed the generals of the Beihu Wang's account dragoon. It was even more frightened that the principal of the family behind him went to the royal court overnight to plead guilty and take back the book of attacking the embroidered fox. At this point, the Shenguang knew that there was a soldier saint in Beihu, and for many years after that, the old valley lord was alive for a day, and the Shenguang generals who had been pressing were out of breath.

What's even more terrifying is that when King Pingkang received the information for help, he also led the army to rush to the rescue for 200 miles, but when he saw the cutting and closing tactics of the main force of Beihu in the distance, as well as the formation of advancing and retreating, he thought about it for a long time, and he didn't dare to rush in to save people.

"The king's account dragoon is crisscrossed in the huge battlefield, but it is orderly, the battle formations echo from beginning to end, and the different arms are coordinated, which can be called the perfect combat command art, he is cold in his heart, and he feels that the army of Lingwu Hou has not been wiped out, the purpose is to wait for him to come to the rescue, the intention of the other party's commander is not to simply eat the 60,000 people of the Lingwu Hou Department, it may be that all the horses on the Western Front want to come to a reckoning."

Especially in the final general attack and sweep, the Beihu heavy armored cavalry appeared, the eight thousand heavy armored cavalry was like an abyss, and wherever the spear went, people were like grass mustard, and the Lingwu Hou Department who crushed it wailed in despair. Many cavalry horses had no way to escape, so they could only be driven into Gabu Lake like cattle and sheep, and shot alive in the lake.

When King Pingkang figured out this strategic intention, he turned his horse's head and directly ordered the cavalry to attack Chiyan City overnight.

The Red Yan garrison is only 20,000 people, and the North Huduo cavalry is not good at defending the city, and there are still some defenders who go out to patrol and have been eaten by the Pingkang Wangbu, and the next day, the Red Yan City is broken. At this time, the battle situation evolved, and it was no longer the situation where King Pingkang proposed to seize the Chiyan and build a defense to deter Gabuhu Racecourse, so the commander King Pingkang temporarily changed the formation, he knew that he could break the city, but he must not defend the city, and ordered the light cavalry to damage all the baggage equipment in the city, empty all the grain, grass and arrows, and set a fire to quickly evacuate.

After the main armies of the two countries really attacked, each other's advantages and disadvantages were magnified, and the Shenguang Middle Road army was also blocked from attacking, and Emperor Jialong listened to Cui Hanzhangnian's Lingwu Marquis Department's letter for help in the account, and his heart was also extremely tormented.

Lingwu Marquis Bai Juque and Emperor Jialong have intersected since childhood, growing up together, the two can be said to know the roots, the reason why they are relieved to deliver King Pingkang and the army of the Western Front to Bai Juque is that the grace of the heavenly family superimposes the trust of small friendship, but who would have thought that his attack on Gabu Lake Racecourse would be such a tragic ending. Fortunately, Youqi adapted to the situation and divided his troops to attack the Gabu Lake corridor area, otherwise wouldn't the army on the Western Front be wiped out?

Emperor Jialong was well versed in the art of war and strategy, and at this time he knew better than anyone else that the army in the middle could not be divided to rescue. At the beginning, he also made it clear to Lingwu Hou Bai Juque and Liu Zhilun, "In the battle of the Northern Expedition, my middle route army walked in a straight line, and the two Qing families need to know that there is only the strategic arrangement of the east and west fronts to rescue the middle route army, don't think that I will divide my troops to rescue the two, even if I fight to the last soldier." ”

Bai Juque and Liu Zhilun are clear in their hearts, if they are incompetent as the commander, they will die at that time, and the three armies will be exhausted and bury the Northern Expedition, I am afraid that a hundred deaths will not be enough to atone for their crimes. If the east-west line drags on for a longer period of time, the more Beihu main forces will be involved, and then the middle route army will have more confidence to take Youyun City. Once Youyun City is taken, open up the strategic passage with Jiatong Pass and Hejian Mansion, and the three-way army gathers in Youyun City, strategically overlooking the twelve states of Youyun, then the Beihu Royal Court will no longer have a barrier to defend, and then attack the Huanglong, and the king will be at his fingertips.

The news that all 60,000 soldiers and horses of Lingwu Hou Bai Juque were killed was transmitted back to Taikang City, setting off a monstrous wave, and there were many discussions in the streets and alleys, teahouses and restaurants, and no one could accept such a defeat. The first-class Lingwu Marquis Mansion is like a mourning exam, and the wailing and crying are endless, and the little Marquis Bai Yanqiu cut his hair and swore that only the Lingwu Marquis who died on the battlefield was never the little Marquis who was reluctant to survive.

Three days later, the grief-stricken hereditary Lingwu Marquis Bai Yanqiu led the soldiers in the palace to wear linen and filial piety, and carried the coffin to Jiatong Pass under the starry night.
