Li Yi remembered the many conquests of Jinchuan during the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, and the imperial court successively mobilized 600,000 troops, conquered four times in a row, killed dozens of people below the governor and the general army who were unfavorable in the crusade, and spent 70 million taels of silver before finally reluctantly winning. Although it was in the western Sichuan region, it was not much different from the situation here.

The Yunnan region has a total of only 6,000 soldiers, and the maximum number of officers and soldiers that can be drawn is only 3,000.

What is even more difficult to determine is that it is still unknown which tribe did the work that led to the heavy casualties of the officers and soldiers in Yunnan this time.

When Li Yi was hesitating, Zhang Bo saw his doubts, and he stepped forward and said: "Dashuai, for today's plan, is to find out which tribe attacked us for no reason as soon as possible. ”

Jian Zheng also nodded and said, "Yes!" I see that the costumes of these barbarians are very similar to the black barbarians in the Nayong region, as long as we follow this, if we want to find out the truth, I am afraid it will not be very difficult. It's just that how to avenge this blood feud has to be thought about for a while. ”

"I think that our Han's Zhenxiong Festival is in the north of here, and if we join forces with them to suppress it, our strength will be greatly enhanced. I think that Wu Xun and Wu Dashuai will not sit idly by! ”

Hearing General Jian Zheng say this, Li Yi suddenly had energy. Oh, yes! Zhenxiong Jiedu's jurisdiction is in the north, only a hundred miles away from here, they have nearly 10,000 troops, and their strength is much stronger than Yunnan. If the two join forces, the odds of winning are undoubtedly much greater.

And now the main thing is to identify the murderers, so that the army can have a purpose to follow when it advances. Therefore, Li Yi immediately sent people back to recruit Qiu Feng, Du Shang, Zhao Yi and others to serve. The three of them are all from Sichuan, and their accents are closer to those of the natives here, and the three of them are professional spy officers, so it is easier for them to go deep into the indigenous tribes to investigate the situation.

The others immediately cleaned up the battlefield and cleaned up the bodies of officers and soldiers on both sides. After careful statistics, 243 officers and men of Baoshan Pass in Yunnan Province were killed, which was the heaviest loss of personnel since the Battle of Songyang Pass. However, there were as many as 450 corpses of these barbarians, but not a single enemy was captured, which shows how tragic the battle situation was at that time, and it is really painful to think about it.

After cleaning up the battlefield, when Li Yizheng was discussing the direction of the investigation with Jian Zheng, Zhang Bo and others, a report suddenly came from outside the door, saying that a team carrying the banner of the Han Zhenxiong Jiedu came to the pass, and the number was about 500 people.

Hearing the news, Li Yi couldn't help but be slightly surprised. I'm discussing going to contact Zhenxiong and jointly crusade against the barbarian tribe that caused the bloody case! Unexpectedly, the people from Zhenxiong Festival took the initiative to come to the door, which was really unexpected.

However, the responsibilities of the two sides are different, and Zhenxiong Jiedu exists specifically to defend against the threat of Shu, and has no intersection with Yunnan, and has not had much contact. Now that he has come to the door rashly, I am afraid that there is a very important hidden secret.

Li Yi met Zhenxiong's Tuoba Huang on the tower of Baoshan Pass, this person is only in his early twenties, and his figure is not very tall, according to the standards of later generations, he is more than 1.7 meters tall, but he has a thin waist and a strong body, although his face is a little dark, his appearance is also handsome, and his nose is accurate and straight, his eyes are sharp, and he has a terrifying spirit.

After Tuoba Huang heard that Li Yi was the envoy of Yunnan Xuanfu, he immediately made a big salute to pay homage, Li Yi hurriedly helped him up, and said warmly: "General Tuoba Hugh should be polite, we are all vassals of the Han Dynasty, and we have armor on our bodies, why do we need to be so polite." ”

As he spoke, he was brought to the guest seat and sat down, and the tea was served, and then he continued: "General Tuoba doesn't know what happened, he came all the way to visit my Baoshan Pass, was it sent by Marshal Wu?" ”

Tuoba Huang hurriedly said respectfully: "Please forgive the last general, I was only ordered to chase and suppress the violent mountain people, but I chased it to Baoshan Pass but there was no trace, in order to find out the situation, I came to inform your subordinate Cao Patrol Envoy, I really don't know that the marshal also stopped here." If you are offended, I hope that Li Dashuai will forgive me. ”

Li Yi was stunned, and hurriedly asked, "It turns out that General Tuoba is here to chase down the people of the Qiqi mountains. Alas! My Baoshan Pass was just attacked by this group of mountain people in the morning, injuring hundreds of our officers and soldiers, and the Cao patrol envoy was also seriously injured and was healing below. ”

"It seems that the group of people pursued by General Tuoba are the mobs that have invaded my Baoshan Pass. It's just that we still can't figure out where this group of people came from, and I don't know if General Tuoba has any exact news? ”

Tuoba Huang nodded solemnly and said: "No wonder, I saw a mess in front of Baoshan Pass, but it turned out that this group of people plundered the villages around our Weining Pass, and then ran here. It's just that the last general can't figure out their identities, only that they are wearing the costumes of the black barbarian tribe, and they must be mountain people in the area of Nayong and Shuicheng. ”

Li Yi said "oh" and said: "I see, to be able to concentrate thousands of people to attack our Han guards, this courage is really not small, if you can't give them a profound lesson, I'm afraid those barbarians will attack us even more fiercely, and people will not be able to live in peace from now on." I don't know where you Wu Dashuai are now, I want to meet with you Dashuai immediately to discuss the strategy of crusading against the barbarians, and please contact us in time. ”

Tuoba Huang nodded happily and said: "When the last general set off from Weining Pass, I heard that Wu Dashuai had also led a large group of men and horses to Weining Pass, so he must have been stationed at Weining Pass at this time. The last general will send someone to report to Marshal Wu now, so that the meeting can be arranged as soon as possible. In order not to delay the time, the general thought that we could also rush there later, so as not to miss the good opportunity of the meeting. ”

Li Yi nodded yes, first arranged for him to go back to report, and then sent someone back to inform Lin Yi, asking him to prepare food and reinforcements, and be sure to fill Baoshan Pass as soon as possible. If Baoshan Pass can't be moved, some of the men and horses can also be stationed in the nearby Xuanxian area to wait for dispatch. Then Jian Zheng sat in Baoshan Pass, responsible for receiving and arranging reinforcements and officers and soldiers, and making all preparations for the expedition.

After arranging all this, Li Yi ordered the whole army to bury the pot and cook, count the men and horses and weapons, and wait for the arrival of the scout battalion led by Qiu Feng.
