At night, Lin Jinghui came to Zhao Junsheng's camp.

"Your Majesty, I just received the news that the secret agents sent out have successfully blended into the homeless people outside Jiameng Pass, and successfully encouraged them to prepare to go to Jianmen Pass early tomorrow morning!"

After Lin Jinghui finished speaking, he took out a book and presented it and said: "This is the latest report on the deployment of garrisons in Sichuan and Shu, please take a look at it!" ”

Zhao Junsheng nodded, took the piece and looked at it.

After looking at it in detail from beginning to end, Zhao Junsheng found that the garrisons in Sichuan and Shu at this time were frequently transferred, the garrisons left behind in the garrison were gradually decreasing, and the ordnance reserves, grain and grass reserves of these garrisons were all low to an extremely dangerous situation.

Zhao Junsheng can be sure that this is the weakest time in the military defense of Sichuan and Shu!

He looked up at Lin Jinghui: "Why are the garrisons in Sichuan and Shu mobilized so frequently?" ”

Lin Jinghui saluted and said: "There is the latest news that the number of displaced people in the middle of the river is still increasing, and the displaced people in several places are no longer alive and are attacking the city, and these mobilized garrisons are quelling the chaos!" ”

Zhao Junsheng got up and said, "That's really God help me!" Come on, pass on Li Bao! ”

Li Bao soon arrived, "What does Your Majesty command?" ”

"Prepare, let's go to Jiameng Pass overnight, find the homeless people at the homeless gathering point to collect 2,000 sets of old clothes and shoes, and exchange them with new clothes!"

"Yes!"

Late at night, Zhao Junsheng left his entourage ministers in the Dingjun Mountain camp, and he and Li Bao led a thousand dragon guards to advance in the direction of Jiameng Pass overnight.

At present, the southernmost pass of the Qianguo in Liangzhou is the Jiameng Pass, which has been under the control of the Qianjun since it was taken over by the Qianjun, and the outermost pass controlled by the Southern Dynasties is the Jianmen Pass, and the middle zone is the military buffer zone.

After marching for a day and night, they arrived at Tiesuo Pass the next day, and the Dragon Guard army rested at Tiesuo Pass for only three hours before continuing to set off in the middle of the night.

On the evening of the third day, Zhao Junsheng and Li Bao arrived at Qipanshan with the Dragon Guard, but fortunately, this road was all within their own territory, although it was a border area, neither the displaced people nor the Southern Korean army could enter.

After marching again for a day and night, they finally arrived at Jiameng Pass.

Wei Chong, the guard of Jiameng, was a general, who originally only had 300 people in his hands, but because a large number of displaced people came, the Liangzhou Governor's Mansion added 200 people to him.

When Wei Chong learned that the emperor had personally brought his troops to come, he immediately brought people down to Guancheng to greet him.

"The last general, Jia Meng, the guard, will Wei Chong meet ······"

Before Wei Chong's words were finished, Li Bao stepped forward to interrupt him: "General Wei doesn't need to be polite, this general and the soldiers are running all the way, and they are very difficult, and ask General Wei to prepare some hot meals for us and arrange a place for us to live!" ”

Wei Chong understood that he could not reveal the identity of the emperor, and hurriedly said: "General rest assured, the last general must be properly arranged, please follow the general and soldiers into the city!" ”

Under the leadership of Zhao Junsheng and Li Bao, the Thousand Dragon Guards followed Wei Chong into the Jiameng Pass, and there were many barracks in the pass, which could accommodate thousands of people in this pass during the war, and Zhao Junsheng and Li Bao, the Thousand Dragon Guards, still looked very spacious after entering.

Although the soldiers of the Dragon Guard Army are very tired, they are full of energy, they are all elites selected from the whole army, I thought that there would be no chance to fight again for a long time, but I didn't expect that this time I could just accompany the emperor on patrol but get a chance to fight.

These are all veterans of veterans, all of them have rich experience in marching and fighting, they all know how to arrange physical strength reasonably, know how to let themselves go to sleep in the shortest possible time to restore their mental and physical strength, know how to adjust their mentality, and let the excitement and willpower of combat suppress the fear of death in their hearts.

After the meal was ready, the soldiers of the Dragon Guard devoured it one by one.

Zhao Junsheng asked Wei Chong while eating: "How are the displaced people outside the Guan?" ”

Wei Chong replied: "Back to Your Majesty, according to the investigation of the spies, seventy or eighty thousand displaced people have turned around and returned to Jianmen Pass, it is reported that they have spent three days outside Jianmen Pass, and they have been shouting all day to let the defenders of the Southern Dynasty of Jianmen Pass open the city gate for them to pass through the pass and return to Shuzhong, but the soldiers of the Southern Dynasty guarding the pass have not opened the door, and many of the displaced people have starved to death in the past few days, and it is not clear how many of them are there!" The mood of the displaced people outside Jianmen Pass is very unstable, and they may be blown up at any time, if someone instigates and organizes, it is likely to attack Jianmen Pass! ”

Zhao Junsheng thought for a while, and said to Wei Chong: "You go and prepare, in the middle of the day, I and General Li will lead the army out of the customs!" Remember, you must block the news, whoever dares to talk nonsense will be killed! You stay here to guard the Jiameng Pass, and be ready to respond at any time! ”

Wei Chong clenched his fists: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the last general remembers!" ”

After Wei rushed away, Zhao Junsheng instructed Li Bao: "When the soldiers are finished eating, let them take off their armor and wrap them, change into the clothes and shoes of the homeless, and wrap up the armor, weapons, bows, crossbows, and arrows on their backs!" At that time, let's set off on time to cross the gate and blend in with the homeless people outside the Jianmen Pass, so that the soldiers can be smeared with mosquito-repellent herb juice! Warned the soldiers that after blending in with the homeless people, they all pretended to be deaf and dumb, and did not talk to other homeless people, otherwise their accents would be exposed and they would be exposed. Also, in order to facilitate the command, let each of the chiefs bring their own people with them, so that they cannot be separated, and let everyone wear a sweat towel around their necks to distinguish them from the real outcasts! ”

Li Bao clenched his fists and agreed: "Yes, the minister will go and prepare!" ”

Zhao Junsheng asked Lin Jinghui again: "After I am mixed in with the displaced people, how can I contact the meticulous workers sent by the black-clothed guards?" ”

Lin Jinghui immediately said: "The minister should go with His Majesty, so as not to interrupt the contact or delay the military plane by mistake!" ”

Zhao Junsheng thought about it for a while and agreed: "It's okay!" ”

Everyone began to fall asleep after getting ready, and slept until midnight, a total of two hours, Wei Chong came over and woke up Zhao Junsheng and the others.

Zhao Junsheng turned over and shouted, "Li Bao, order the soldiers to assemble in a line and prepare to go!" ”

"Yes!"

A quarter of an hour later, Zhao Junsheng and Li Bao waited in the city with a thousand soldiers of the Dragon Guard who had changed into the old clothes of the homeless people.

Wei Chong hugged his fists at Zhao Junsheng and said: "Your Majesty, the last general has prepared an elite soldier of the army, and the commander of the army will lead the way to Jianmen Pass for Your Majesty, if you meet someone on the way, Your Majesty does not have to come forward, everything will be resolved by their negotiations!" ”

Zhao Junsheng nodded: "Okay!" ”

Wei Chong immediately waved his hand: "Open the city gate!" ”

With the sound of the noose, the drawbridge was lowered and the gates opened.

Zhao Junsheng waved his hand, "Let's go!" After speaking, he walked out of the city gate, and Li Bao and the soldiers of the Dragon Guard Army immediately followed.

After leaving Jiameng Pass, the road is more difficult to travel, although these Dragon Guard soldiers are all elites, but they have never marched and fought on such a rugged road, and the speed of walking is a little slow.

Zhao Junsheng is not in a hurry, Jiameng Pass is not far from Jianmen Pass, only more than sixty miles away, with the physical conditions of these Dragon Guard soldiers, it can be walked in one night.

Zhao Junsheng turned his head to look, although he changed into the old clothes of the homeless, the team was still very neat, there was no sound on the road, and the pace was the same.

He thought for a while and instructed Li Bao: "Tell the soldiers, don't behave like this, we are now homeless people, not the army, let everyone relax, don't have to abide by the rules in the army, the formation is scattered, and the pace is not so neat!" ”

"Yes, the minister will give the order!"

After the order was delivered, the ranks loosened up considerably, and some people began to talk while walking, and the soldiers found that talking while walking could relieve fatigue, and it seemed that they could walk faster and faster.

After walking all night, Zhao Junsheng and Li Bao finally arrived outside Jianmen Pass with their team, and seventy or eighty thousand displaced people gathered outside the pass, lying on the ground in patches, and some people also set up shacks nearby.

Zhao Junsheng stopped and instructed Li Bao: "Pass the order and tell the brothers to disperse in what units, don't gather all together, and contact according to the contact method we agreed in advance!" Also, when eating, you should hide from the homeless people around you so that you don't get seen by them! ”

"Got it!"

The order was quietly conveyed, and the soldiers of the Dragon Guard scattered one after another, and before the sky dawned, everyone quietly blended into the seventy or eighty thousand homeless people, only one thousand, and among the seventy or eighty thousand, they did not attract the slightest attention at all.

Zhao Junsheng pulled Lin Jinghui over: "You go and contact our detailed work, and let the leader come over!" ”

The sky was bright, and Lin Jinghui walked over with a tall and thin middle-aged man through the homeless people.

Zhao Junsheng looked at this person and shook his head: "Follow me!" ”

Several people came to the foot of a mountain far away from the homeless, and Lin Jinghui introduced Zhao Junsheng and the tall and thin middle-aged man: "This is Jiang Hui Jiang Zongqi, this is General Zhao!" ”

"The villain Jiang Hui meets General Zhao!"

Zhao Junsheng nodded and said, "What is the situation now?" Is there a way to get the defenders of Jianmen Pass to open the city gate and let these homeless people pass through the pass and return to Shuzhong? ”

Jiang Hui replied: "In the first two days, the defenders were resolute and refused to open the door no matter what, but in the past few days, thousands of people have starved to death due to lack of food and staying in the sun. Yesterday, the guards of the Sword Gate Pass were a little loose, and later the villain will organize people to count the number of people who died last night, and carry the corpses to the front of the pass, what will the guards do, if he still does not order to open the city gate, the villain will call on the homeless people to fight with them, now many homeless people have been hungry for several days, they are desperate, they are not afraid of death, but no one organizes and agitates! ”

After listening to this, Zhao Junsheng asked, "How many homeless people are listening to you now?" I mean, how many people can risk their lives to follow you to find the defenders of Jianmen Pass desperately? ”

Jiang Hui said: "At least 5,000 people, all of them are young and strong, the villain thinks that as long as the fight starts, the other homeless people will definitely follow, and they can't live anymore, this is the only hope, no one will spare their lives, seventy or eighty thousand homeless people who want to live can do anything!" ”

Zhao Junsheng knows very well that people are not afraid of death at all in a state of extreme hunger, some of these homeless people have been hungry for more than ten days, and they feed their hunger with grass roots, wild vegetables, and tree bark every day, and the wild vegetables, fern roots, and bark in the area from Jianmen Pass to Jiameng Pass have been gnawed away, and the ground is bare, and the bark of the trees on the mountain has been stripped away.

It was dark last night, Zhao Junsheng hadn't noticed it yet, the sky was already bright at this time, and he noticed that it was already early in the morning, this was terrible, in such an environment, these homeless people were simply a group of beasts that had lost their humanity, as long as there was food anywhere, they would definitely rush over without fear of death.

Zhao Junsheng thought for a while and ordered: "Jiang Zongqi, my people need a morning to rest, you spend a morning counting out the bodies of the displaced people who died last night and carrying them to the front of the pass for the defenders to see, and tell them that if you don't open the city gate and let you pass, you can only attack the city in order to survive!" ”

"Yes!"
