Chapter 352: I don't know the meaning of the yellow finch 17
A long procession walked rapidly through the mountain stream, with no end in sight. These people are holding horses in their hands, not that they are reluctant to ride, but that the mountain stream is too cramped, the road is rugged, and the ground is mostly rubble washed down when the mountain flood falls in the summer, and if you don't pay attention, you will slip and fall. Then there is the crisp sound of the horseshoe, which echoes too much in the valley and spreads too far, and if it is discovered, it will ruin the great event of the horseshoes.
The soldiers looked very simple, wearing only armor on the upper body, leather knee pads at the knees, thick fur pointed scalp boots on their feet, and a scarf on their heads that almost protected their faces, and at the front of the line, a black flag rolled up in the hands of a soldier.
A person who walked in front flashed out of the ranks, took off the hood on his head, and revealed a face with a short forehead, a straight nose and a wide mouth, thick from under the long eyebrows, a pair of big eyes with great brilliance, a beard on the lips across the face, only a handful of hair on the top of the head, combed into a braid and hung down on the back of the head, and a big gold ring hanging from each ear.
Since the occupation of the Khan Prefecture, the emperor also came to Fengsheng Prefecture in person, and Wanyan Lou began to have the idea of Yanjing in his heart.
Wanyan Lou and Emperor Aguta are not close relatives, when it comes to being close to the emperor, the emperor now has his own brother Wanyan Xianye, and there are four princes of the royal family, Zong Wang, Zong Fu, Zong Han, and Zong Bi, so he was not valued by the emperor at first. However, he won his current identity and status by virtue of the fact that he followed the emperor to fight against Liao at the beginning, and the steel and iron bones on the battlefield. Emperor Aguta even gave him an iron coupon to avoid death, and he was a hero admired by everyone in the army.
Wan Yan Lou wiped the sweat on the top of his head, and unbuttoned his clothes at the neckline, so that the heat on his body could be dissipated, this ghost place, as Emperor Akuta said, was really not suitable for them to live in. After Yan Lou looked ahead, he let the herald go down, and the army rested on the spot. Then he asked one of the soldiers beside him to take out a white satin and shoot it with an arrow to a small tree on the top of the hillside.
Seeing that the soldiers had done this, Wan Yan Lou also sat on the ground, just asking the soldier who was shooting arrows to find a convenient position and stare at the Guancheng opposite.
From Fengsheng Prefecture to Khan Prefecture, the Liao people Nanjing seemed to be close at hand, only separated by the Juyong Guancheng in this short period of dozens of miles. He also secretly came to the outside of Juyong Pass several times, and watched from different terrains, and he was amazed by the steep terrain, the complexity of the terrain, and the ingenious design. Since the army started from the White Mountain and Black Water, he has never seen such a difficult pass.
Juyong Pass is not only an entrance to the Chadao Fort, but the rest of the mountain passes are more rugged and difficult to navigate, and some can only allow one person to go together, and they can't pass the army at all. If you want the army to pass, you must enter from the fork fort according to the intention of the person who designed the level.
But it's just this first hurdle fork in the fort, and it is as difficult as climbing to the sky if you want to pass it. He carefully observed that to the east of Guancheng, there was a mountain stream, from which the valley gathered and flowed southward through the east side of Guancheng, and now it was early winter, and the mountain stream had been frozen into a glacier. On the east hill above the castle, the top of the hill towers over the ridge, and the city wall built on the ridge looks down on the castle. To the west of Guancheng, the mountains are even more steep than the eastern ones. The city wall here is built in the east-west direction, and there are several arrow towers built in the middle, and the gate of Chadaobao is in the middle of these arrow towers and the city wall, towering high, overlooking the outside of the pass. The city tower is three floors high, the top is simple, the middle is the city wall, the bottom is the city gate, just look at the past, the gate of the city does not know what to do, lock the customs avenue, staring at the mountain road outside the city.
Outside the castle, all the trees that blocked the view and hindered the shooting of bows and crossbows were cut down, and there were not even mounds of earth or stones that could be raised by one person, and there was a fan-shaped slope outside the castle with the castle as the border. Not to mention attacking, just looking up at the fortress and the walls on both sides of the castle is enough to make people dizzy and frightened.
On both sides of the mountain road outside Guancheng, there are cliffs, and there are no vegetation, so I'm afraid no one has ever gone up. There are also lower city walls, but after a careful look at Yan Lou's room, he was even more disappointed. Any low city wall looks easy to attack, but at the intersection of the low city wall, there must be an arrow tower in the dark, if you want to kill from the front of this low city wall, the dark arrow from the side arrow tower will easily take the life of the besieger.
Wanyan Lou didn't just know how to rush and fight, otherwise he wouldn't have won the reputation of a victorious general. After much thought, he thought of Jerod.
Yelu Yujian is a Liao person, and he is a Liao person who has been in Yanjing for a long time, and he has been serving in the Liao army, and he has been a general of Jin Wuwei, and he is the commander of the Eastern Road, and he has a certain status in the Liao army. Now the Liao Emperor is forced to take refuge in the Jin State, if Yelu Yujian sneaks into Juyong Pass and says that he will surrender to the generals, just like not long ago Yelu Yujian said that he surrendered to the people of Fengshengzhou with people's hope and dedicated Fengshengzhou to the Jin army, then these sons and daughters under his command will not have to die tragically in this closed city like the gate of hell.
He naturally knew that Emperor Aguta was not very at ease with Yelu Yujian, otherwise why would he send someone to move all Yelu Yujian's family into the mainland? Therefore, before carrying out this strategy, he also deliberately went to Fengsheng Prefecture and reported the matter to Emperor Aguta. Emperor Akuta was very happy when he heard about it, and said that the weather in this place was a little hot, not as cool as his hometown, and he was talking about driving back to the capital, and now that there is a way to take Yanjing, then he will stay in Fengshengzhou for two more days, so as to wait for his good news.
After returning to the Khan Prefecture, Yan Lou immediately sent Yelu Yujian to Juyong Guancheng to say that he would surrender to the guards. It's just that after this Yelu Yu came back, he said that the guard general was to be the emperor of the soil himself, and he would never reduce the gold. He has already calculated the plan, lied that he has nothing to love in the Jin army, and decided to attack Yanjing City with the guard, and asked Lou Room to take advantage of the weakness to attack Juyong Pass five days later, at that time he and Juyong Pass will take the soldiers and horses in the city to attack Yanjing City, and he will take advantage of the chaos to return to Juyong Pass and open and greet Lou Room.
The truth and falsehood in Yelu Yujian's words made Wanyan Lou's room inthorough for a while, but he still agreed to Yelu Yujian. The day after Yelu Yujian left with 200 cronies, Wanyan Lou also left the Khan Prefecture with his own men. After years of conquest, Wan Yan Lou will never put his hope on others, not to mention that this person is still a traitor who is not very credible.
He didn't bother to guess Yelu Yujian's calculations, he only needed to know that Yelu Yujian and Juyong Guanshou would lead their troops out of Guancheng, and that was enough.
