Chapter 173: Ambush Yijin Pass
Almost at the same time that Yelu was chattering about the city of Sezhou, Yelu Xiu galloped all the way and finally arrived in front of Yijin Pass. At this time it is noon, this Yijin Pass is not located in what lofty mountains and mountains, the high mountains are uplifted, high and unclimbable, it is easy to "open a husband when the pass is not open", this Yijin Pass does fall on the North China Plain. At most, it's just a small county town on dirt buns. So what is the significance of its "gateway"? Why is it so critical? The reason is very simple, there are indeed no mountains in this place, but there is water!
Most of you who have been to Beijing and Tianjin know that in the last century, there was a big river in this area called Haihe. And an important direct flow of this Haihe River is the Daqing River flowing at the foot of Yijin Pass. A Daqing River stretches for hundreds of miles, you say this is not very wide, in fact, the river is not very wide, that is, only a few hundred meters, but on both sides of the Daqing River, there are many lakes with shallow water, deeper than the swamp water, a bit similar to the lake of "Baiyangdian", or called "what what depression", this place is rippling with reeds, deep silt, and there are many roads between puddles, but they are very narrow, and most of them are dead ends. It is very unfavorable for people and horses to walk. Therefore, people have to find those places that are easier to walk, and gradually formed three major passes: Yijin Pass, Waqiao Pass, and Sikou Pass.
Yijin Pass is located on the north side of the Daqing River. In this area, the Daqing River has not only become narrower, but also has many fewer puddles. That's why it's so important.
Jerry Xiu was very unhappy along the way, why do you say that? It's very simple, he is still thinking about Qingzhou, Wang Hong, a bastard, has already sent someone to Nanjing City to deliver a letter, and he can only hold Yijin Pass, choke the throat of the Zhou army to the north, and buy time for the Khitan army to go south. If you do this by yourself, then the matter of Qingzhou, you will at least be guilty, if you can't do it, it will be miserable.
The Khitan banner at the head of Yijin Pass is flying high, waving in the wind. Yeluxiu's heart suddenly became much more steady. It seems that Yijin Guan is safe and sound, he let out a long breath, and his tense heart relaxed. But when he thought about it, Jerushius immediately turned bitter again. Why? Since Yijin Pass is fine, then it is worthless to run more than 100 miles. He suddenly felt sad again in his heart, God bless, I hope Cheongju City is fine.
"Dashuai, can't we move forward?" Xiao Tianyou said beside Yeluxiu.
Originally, according to Xiao Tianyou's level, he shouldn't stay by Yeluxiu's side, but when he came, Yeluxiu felt that Xiao Tianyou had talent, and he was counting on him to come up with ideas; Second, staying by his side will not be less than his share, but this security is much higher than in the forward camp. My future is uncertain.,In case I am matched with the son of a left-behind adult again,Thatγγγ There is no need to worry about the future.
Yeluxiu snorted angrily and said, "What's wrong, isn't this city gate open?" The flag of our Khitan is also floating on the head of the city. Is it because of these normal situations that you feel abnormal? The Zhou army went north, and we just got the news that Zhong Tinghui, the guard of Yijin Pass, didn't know that the Zhou army was going north and opened the city gate, which was natural. β
"This is normal, but what makes the last general feel a little strange is that we have seen a lot of horse manure along the way." Xiao Tianyou said.
"Horse manure? This road is the only way to go north to Nanjing, we have a lot of horseback riders in the north, and some horse manure is also normal. Jeruthius asked rhetorically. He really wanted to knock on Xiao Tianyou's head now to see what was going on in this kid's head? Is this guy a genius or a fool? Could it be that he also thinks that the cavalry of the Zhou army raided Yijin Pass?
Yelu Xiu thought that Xiao Tianyou would definitely refute himself, but he didn't know that Xiao Tianyou's reaction surprised him again. Xiao Tianyou shook his head, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "Dashuai, it won't be wrong to be careful." Let's send someone to Yijin Pass to have a look. β
Yeluxiu's face was embarrassed, the road to the south of Yijin Pass is relatively narrow, and after Yijin Pass, the north will be open. On this road, his 6ooo people lined up like a long snake formation. There are still two miles away from the pass, but he suddenly didn't leave, so didn't Zhong Tinghui laugh at himself.
Yeluxiu thought for a moment and said, "No need, let's hurry into the customs, rest for a while, and send someone south to inquire about the movements of the Zhou army." Zhou's army is strong, we have to hurry up and maintain our strength, but we can't hesitate at the opportunity. β
Jerushuna made up his mind and commanded his army to move on. It is getting closer and closer to Yijin Pass, and the road ahead is gradually opening up. The big "bell" flag on the head of the city is swaying at the Qianhua army, this meaning is obvious, buddy, don't go, take the official document over, right!
Yeluxiu turned his head to look at Xiao Tianyou, and saw that Xiao Tianyou was contemplating his eyebrows, and he didn't realize that he wanted to promote him and let him go to check the official documents. Yeluxiu felt a little unhappy in his heart, so he had to say to his own soldiers: "You ride a horse and take the official document, and go to the front to check and check the sergeant guarding the city." β
"Handsome and slow, in the past, when the army moved, would Yijin Pass have a check official document?" Xiao Tianyou blocked.
Yeluxiu is even more unhappy, the army must check the official document when it passes, this is an iron law issued by Emperor Taizu, who dares not to obey it. He said unhappily: "This is my Khitan iron law, haven't you heard of it?" β
"Emperor Taizu's iron law, the last general will naturally know. However, Zhong Tinghui, the guard of Yijin Pass, has always been careless, and the place where he is located is not the border, and this iron law may have existed in name only in Yijin Pass. Last time, I crossed the border with more than 100 men and horses, and the defenders of Yijin Pass did not check the official documents at all. Xiao Tianyou said: "Dashuai, it's better to send someone in to take a look." β
"Haha, little general, you're too careful. What time is it now, the Zhou army is about to go north, how can he still be as imprudent as he used to be? β
"We also just learned about the Zhou army's northward march in Qingzhou, but how did he know that the Zhou army was going north when he was far away in Yijin Pass?" Xiao Tianyou retorted.
Yelu Xiu was stunned for a moment, he couldn't help scratching his head, pasting his slightly chapped lips, and didn't know how to refute for a while, but he definitely didn't think that Xiao Tianyou was right, he thought that he had just said the wrong thing, if Zhong Tinghui suddenly remembered to be cautious today, wouldn't he Xiao Tianyou have no rebuttal?
Yelu Xiu couldn't argue with Xiao Tianyou, so he simply stopped arguing, turned around and angrily reprimanded his own soldiers: "Don't you hurry up, do you want Ben Shuai to invite you to go?" β
"Obey!" The soldiers were startled, and hurriedly rode over to call the pass.
"Marshal, your official residence is the deputy envoy of the Qianhua Army, and the general of Zhong Tinghui District Yijin Pass. When you come to Yijin Pass, he Zhong Tinghui should go out to greet you. Why don't you let him come out and greet him? "Xiao Tianyou doesn't give up after all, and if he can't make a plan, he will have another plan.
In normal times, Yeluxiu still likes to put on a show, but now it is not normal after all. What is the situation of the war in the south? I have been running all the way, and the military horses are tired, so it is better to rest and recuperate, after all, what follows may be an extremely sinister battle! Yeluxiu sneered and said, "Since the little general thinks this matter is not good, you might as well go to the rear army by yourself." If there is nothing to do in front, everything is easy to say, and once there is a change in this Yijin Pass, the little general must also prepare as soon as possible. β
But looking at the literal word, this is quite good, but coupled with Yeluxiu's pouting and sarcastic look, everyone knows that this Yeluxiu is not a well-intentioned persuasion at all, but a pure ridicule!
Xiao Tianyou's sword eyebrows were raised, Lang's eyes widened angrily, and after a while, he bowed his head and said, "The last general will obey the order!" Saying that, this Xiao Tianyou actually turned the dock and went to the rear army.
Xiao Tianyou's reaction, on the contrary, Yelu Xiu was stunned, he thought that this little guy couldn't stand the ridicule and wanted to turn his face with himself, but he didn't expect this little thing to be so spineless. What is it! Yeluxiu scolded softly in his mouth, and his heart was even more frustrated, I really don't know why he actually sent a ghost to accompany the little thing, and led the army back to Yijin Pass, this... It's not a lost plane. Why didn't I even see that this little thing was a waxy silver spearhead, and it didn't work!
Just when Yeluxiu was scolding, the soldiers had already returned: "Marshal Bing, the military documents have been checked, and General Zhong Tinghui, the general of Yijin Pass, is about to come out to greet the general!" β
"Well, the army is on!" Xiao Tianyou was not around, and Yeluxiu was too lazy to talk nonsense, so he waved his hand and let the army continue to advance!
Seeing that he was under the gate of Yijin Pass, suddenly the "dong dong" war drums sounded, and there was an extra column of archers holding strong bows at the battlements of the city wall. It was too late, but it was too late, and the archer had just appeared, and the longbow that was drawn like a full moon "swished" and released sharp arrows one after another. Accompanied by the sound of a rain of arrows, there was also the sound of "crunching" clogs, and Yelu Xiu had been in the army for a long time, and immediately understood what it was: the sound of a stone thrower and a crossbow bed.
The other party has shot arrows, can Jeruxiu still not understand what is going on? He shouted, "Quick... Hurry back to the army, there is a burial... Before the "ambush" of this "ambush" could speak, he suddenly felt that his heart was like a lightning strike, and his right hand holding the long knife was sent, and his mouth was sweet, and a stream of blood spurted out. Immediately afterwards, there was a period of lightheadedness, a crooked body, planted from the horse, and what caught his eye was a military flag with gold letters on a white background: Zhou!
Yeluxiu was supposed to be in the Chinese army, but halfway through the rear army asked Yelu to bring him back to Qingzhou, he hurried in order to hurry up, and he didn't care about the front and rear Chinese army, but he ran in front and was shot by the Zhou army in Yijin Pass.
As soon as Yeluxiu died, the entire Khitan army was gone, and there was a big chaos. This is a cavalry from the city, and the flag bearer is holding a blue flag with a white background and two words written on it: Murong. The leading general with bright silver armor and beard is Murong Yanzhao, the fierce general of the Zhou army. And from the east and west of the city, two armies were also killed, Wang Zhen on the left, Fu Yanqing on the right, and Liu Guangyi led the army to cover the killing.
