After Zhang Jing finished speaking, the generals in the council hall were also bowing their heads and discussing, if all the six thousand elite horsemen of the Rouran people were killed to the West Sea, then what chance did they have of winning?

"Silence! What have become of you? What kind of system? Zhenbei General Zhang Jing scolded.

"General Qiyu, if the Rouran cavalry comes to attack, the last general suggests that the city should be defended, my Xihai city wall is three feet high, and the food stored in the city is more than three months, and the Rouran people have no siege weapons and can't help me." Yang Shizhong, the guard of Xihai City, came out and hugged his fists and said.

"General Li, what do you propose?" After listening to this, Zhang Jing stroked his beard and asked Li Yan.

"General Qiqi, the last general thinks that it is a good idea to defend the city, but just defending the city is afraid that the Rouran people will loot my West Sea, if the time is ripe, the last general thinks that he should take the initiative to attack." Li Yan saluted Zhang Jing and said his thoughts.

If it is just to defend Xihai City, the Zhenbei Army can defend it, so that the Rouran people will really be in a no-man's land.

"General, can you ask the prince to send someone to lead the army to meet the enemy?" Lei Ming asked Zhang Jing.

"It's hard! Now most of my soldiers and horses in Daliang are in Lejuan, and the 60,000 cavalry of the Huns are ready to move. There is no one to send the Liang King now, and I'm afraid that the West Sea can only be guarded by ourselves. Zhang Jing frowned as he spoke, and couldn't help but sigh.

An hour later, Li Yan and his party walked out of the General's Mansion, everyone looked solemn, and the Rouran people must have some intention to gather six thousand elite cavalry at the border at this moment.

"General, if you want me to lead the troops directly to kill us, since the Rouran people want to attack us, we will strike first, and the sledgehammer in my hand will definitely beat those barbarians He doesn't know his mother." Hammer frothed at the mouth and lifted the two sledgehammers in his hand.

"You! Go back and train that group of rabbit cubs, the big war is about to start, and then there will be a chance for you to kill enough, haha! Li Yan patted the hammer's shoulder and said with a smile.

"General, when does that have to be? I have to be like that kid with Thunder this time, so I have to be a general. Hammer muttered as he looked at the thunder on the side.

"I think you're begging for a beating." As soon as Lei Ming heard the tone of the hammer, he immediately stepped forward and greeted the hammer with a kick.

"Alright, stop making trouble! Hurry back and straighten out the soldiers and horses, the Rouran people may come to the West Sea at any time. Go back and prepare. Li Yan stopped the two from continuing to fight and ordered.

Some of the people in the city learned from the passing Hu merchants that the Rouran people were about to be defeated, and the streets were in chaos, and some people fled to Jiuquan City with a large number of goods pulled by horse-drawn carts.

The Taishou Mansion can only post notices to appease the people, and the Zhenbei Army will definitely be able to beat the Rouran people back, so that the people in the city will not panic.

However, this did not work much, and some people still packed up their belongings and left the city before the gates were closed.

Li Yan returned to the camp from the general's mansion and felt a little uneasy in his heart. Immediately went out of the city to Longshoujian, the Rouran people were about to fight, with the current military strength, it was a little reluctant to defeat the Rouran people head-on.

"Steward Hao, how many long knives have you built so far?" After Li Yan came to Longshoujian, he asked Hao Sheng directly.

"Returning to the general, since He Laosan successfully made steel, except for the kind of dagger that the general ordered, all of them have been used to make long knives, and now there are about one hundred and fifty-six long knives." Hao Sheng looked through the account books in his hand, flipping back and forth from time to time.

"Not enough! Inadequate! In the past few days, I have worked hard to build enough for me to make up two hundred, and I will be of great use. Now pack up those long knives that have been made, and I'll take them with me in a moment. Li Yan shook his head and instructed Hao Sheng.

Li Yan transported the long knife that Hao Sheng had loaded out of the Dragon Head Stream and handed it to Han Qian, so that the Blood Wolf Guard could train with the long knife.

"Childe, what kind of knife is this? So strange. Han Qian held the long knife in his hand with a puzzled expression.

"Let's call it Modao! Don't look at it like this, it's extremely powerful. Because of this, non-brave people can't exert its power, and so far, only the Blood Wolf Guard can show the power of this Mo Knife. Li Yan looked at most of the Blood Wolf Guards holding Mo knives, and said lightly.

Because the Mo knife weighs forty or fifty pounds, it requires a strong sergeant to control it, and in the face of the enemy's speeding cavalry, it needs to have a strong mental endurance, which is definitely not an ordinary sergeant can do it.

Although He Laosan's Mo knife cast by them is not perfect enough, it can only be transformed after summing up experience in actual combat in the future.

In the camp, the blood wolf guard held a Mo knife in his hand and practiced chopping under Li Yan's teaching, and the sound of killing in the camp shook the sky.

"Childe, it's spectacular. If this is chopping on a horse, it will be a man on his back! It's just that this Mo knife is too heavy. Han Qian couldn't help but admire as he watched the blood wolf guards in the camp training and chopping.

"Cut people up, cut horses down. This is specially designed to deal with the cavalry of the Huns and the Rourans, you must make them skilled as soon as possible, there is not much time left for us. ”

After Li Yan finished instructing Han Qian, he rushed back to Xihai City, it was an eventful time, and the Zhenbei Army had a lot of things to deal with.

Jiankang County, located in the southeast of Jiuquan City, was set up by Zhang Jun in the former Liang period to lead a county. After the death of Duan Ye, the king of Beiliang, Jiankang County was divided into two, Lejun County was occupied by Xiliang, and Lejuan was ruled by Beiliang to the south.

At this moment, Lejuan gathered more than 100,000 soldiers and horses in Xiliang and Beiliang, and the war was about to break out.

The big tent of the Chinese army of the Xiliang Army, an old man who was nearly sixty years old, he was full of silver hair, white hair, wearing dark armor, and his eyes were embarrassed to look at the generals in the big tent.

This person is Tang Yao, the general of Xiliang's expedition to the east, and the 80,000 soldiers and horses of the Xiliang army are all under his command.

"General, the last general is willing to lead 5,000 soldiers to be the vanguard and challenge in front of the Hun thieves." An armored lieutenant in the tent knelt down on one knee and pleaded.

"Captain Yu is really courageous, but my army is moving the whole body, and now the Huns and thieves have not moved, so we must not act rashly." Tang Yao stroked his white beard and motioned for the captain surnamed Yu to sit down.

"Where is General Wuwei?" Tang Yao asked in a deep voice.

"The last general ordered the fox to move, please give the general's orders." A general in heavy armor came out on the left side of the big tent and bowed to Tang Yao and said.

"General Linghu, you lead 20,000 troops on the soil mountain two miles east of Lejuan, and closely monitor every move of the Huns." Tang Yao ordered.

After Linghu Qian received the order, Tang Yao ordered again: "General Weiyuan asks for training, and orders you to lead 15,000 soldiers and horses to be stationed in a dangerous place in the mountains five miles north of Lechuan City, to prevent the Huns from sneaking attack." ”

"Yes, General!." A person on the right side of the big tent came out of the column and bowed and said.

"The rest of the people are at the mercy of the general's orders at any time, and no one is allowed to fight without the general's order. Violators will be severely punished! Tang Yao got up and glanced at everyone and said loudly.

"The last will obey." The generals in the tent stood up and bowed and said.

After the generals left, Tang Yao sat in front of the handsome platform with a worried look on his face, and changed his calmness just now, and the pen in his hand was quickly writing letters. After a while, Tang Yao handed the sealed letter to the guards and asked him to send it back to Jiuquan City to face King Liang of Cheng.

Now there are less than five days left in the grain and grass in the camp, the art of war is cloudy, and the soldiers and horses go first before the grain and grass are moved, how can this not make Tang Yao, who is even the commander of the 80,000 Xiliang Army, feel anxious.

This time, the long Shi Suoxian, who was in charge of the transportation of grain and grass, urged him to ask for grain and grass several times, but there was no reply, and the military grain should have arrived yesterday, but now it has been delayed for a day and is still missing.

Tang Yao felt a sense of weakness in his heart, now that the weather was cold, the 80,000 soldiers and horses consumed a huge amount of food and horses every day. If the grain and grass cannot be transported as soon as possible, I am afraid that it will be defeated without the Huns attacking.

"Someone, I will invite the captain." Tang Yao paced back and forth in the big tent, and suddenly stopped and shouted to the guards outside the tent.

The guards outside the tent responded and walked quickly towards the camp.

After a while, the guards led the captain surnamed Yu into the big tent.

"The last general met the general, I don't know what the general's orders are?" The captain named Yu Ben saluted Tang Yao and said.

"Captain Yu, the old man ordered you to send the young lady back to Jiuquan City immediately, there must be no mistake." Tang Yao helped Yu Ben up and said softly.

"General, this~ I'm afraid!" Yu Ben lowered his head and said in a huff.

"What? Don't you want to? Tang Yao saw that Yu Ben did not agree, so he pretended to be angry.

"No, no, no, general, you don't know the temper of the young lady, I'm afraid that the last general will have the trust of the general, and he can't take on this heavy responsibility." Yu Ben saw Tang Yao's face turned gloomy, and hurriedly explained.

"No matter what method you use, the old man must send the young lady back to Jiuquan City safe and sound, otherwise you won't have to come back! Hum! Tang Yao was not polite to Yu Ben at this moment, and ordered directly.

"The last general obeys the order and retires first." Yu Ben saluted Tang Yao and withdrew from the big tent.

In the place of ten miles away from Lejun County, the Huns set up camp here, 60,000 troops were stationed here, and the big tent stretched for several miles.

At this moment, the governor of Pingxi in Beiliang was discussing in the big tent.

"Governor, give the order. The last general couldn't bear it a long time ago. Frustrated Qu Centennial took the lead and said.

As soon as the words of the hundred years of frustration came out, several Hun generals came out of the ranks, and they all rushed to ask for battle.

"Good! With the help of the generals, I will be able to destroy Xiliang and unify Hexi this time. Frustrated Qu was very happy to see that all the generals in the audience asked to fight.

"The hundred-year-old general listened to the order and ordered you to lead 20,000 troops, take advantage of the night to bypass Xiaoshan Mountain, and raid the Xiliang army under the command of Suo Xun stationed here. Hum! I'm going to let Tang Yao cut off his own arm. Frustrated Qu pointed to the north of Lechuan City on the sheepskin map, where the Xiliang Army Suo Xun was stationed, and snorted.

"Please rest assured, the head of the dog that will be trained will be cut off to make a night pot for the governor. Ha ha! Frustrated Qu Hundred Years laughed loudly.

"Hundred-year-old general, don't take the enemy lightly, this place is easy to defend and difficult to attack, you have to pay more attention!" Seeing that Fuqu didn't care at all for a hundred years, Fuqu said in a deep voice.

"Yes! If the last general can't attack Suo Xun, come to see him. ”

"Tonight, the third watch will make dinner, and the fifth watch will feint to attack Tang Yao Lao'er's Xiliang Army Central Army camp to cover the raid of the century-old general!" Frustrated Qu stood up and raised his arms and exhaled.

"The last general obeys!" The generals in the tent said in unison.
