Yu County goes up further, and it is the boundary of Wutai County in Yanmen County.

There are Wutai Mountain in Wutai County, "Famous Mountain Chronicles" said: "Wutai Mountain, five peaks are towering, high above the cloud surface, there is no forest on the top of the mountain, it is like the too of the soil, so it is called Wutai." ”

There is a record in the "Ancient Scriptures": Wutai Mountain is adjacent to Heng Mountain on the left, Tianchi on the right, Wutai County in the south, Fanzhi County in the north, and there are about 500 miles around Taiwan.

The Wutai Mountain area has a beautiful environment, and there are countless places of interest and treasures, but unfortunately Li Yin does not have much leisure to stop and enjoy these beautiful scenery.

The mountain trail from Wutai Mountain is difficult, and after passing through the Wutai Mountain Area, you will arrive at the area under the jurisdiction of Yanmen Pass.

Yanmen Pass is the seat of Yanmen County.

"Nine stops in the world, Yanmen is the head", Yanmen Pass is also known as Xicheng Pass, high on the Gouzhu Mountain (Gouzhu Mountain is also called Yanmen Mountain), the nearby peaks are upright, the terrain is dangerous, there is "the key of Taiyuan, the throat of the whole Jin" said, it is the moat of the past dynasties to resist the northern nomads, Li Mu, the famous general of the Warring States, has fought against the Huns here for more than ten years.

Liu Hong looked at the slightly deserted Yanmen Gate, and said with a smile: "The dignified Eagle Yang Lang will arrive, why does everyone come out to greet him?" I don't think you're being welcomed! ”

Li Yin stepped forward indifferently, "My generation acts, why do I need to look at people's faces?" As he spoke, he rode into the wild goose gate.

Li Yin began to leave for Yanmen Pass in early September, and now it is the end of October, the snow is falling, the weather is cold, and there are not many pedestrians in the huge Yanmen Pass.

The soldiers of the Great Sui were mainly concentrated in Guanzhong and Henan, and in border places like Yanmen County, the entire county was an Yingyang Mansion, with a total of 4,500 people.

There are only 1,500 soldiers in Yanmen County, but there are still 6,000 garrisons in Yanmen Pass, led by Wang Zhifen, the general of Huben, who guards Yanmen Pass all year round, and is only responsible for the safety of Yanmen, without special orders, and will not be transferred out of Yanmen Pass.

The entire Yanmen County has a total of 12,000 troops, which is enough to defend this key fortress in peacetime, and in the event of a major battle, it can request reinforcements from Taiyuan and other counties at any time.

When Li Yin went to the camp of Yingyang Mansion in Yanmen, Zhou An, Wu Han, Zhang Liang and others immediately greeted him.

Due to the heavy casualties in the two successive expeditions to Goryeo, there were only a total of more than 1,000 people left in the Yanmen Yingyang Mansion, so the imperial court allowed Li Yin to bring him to take up his post in the old department of Suojube.

Li Yin was in the old department of the sour date, and there were more than 1,000 people, and Li Yin felt that it was too few to bring only this little person, so he recruited more than 800 people on his own, called auxiliary soldiers. So he brought a total of more than 2,000 people to this Yanmen Pass.

Zhou An went directly north to Yanmen Pass, and they didn't take any detours, but it was not easy for the army to walk without taking the section of the Fenhe Valley, so they had just arrived at Yanmen Pass not long ago.

As for Cailian, Fluttershy, and Niuniu, because there are too many uncertain factors here, Li Yin plans to pick them up after everything settles down, so he lets them stay in Suoza County for the time being, Li Yin's prestige in Suozao County is very high, and no one dares to embarrass the three of them.

"Lord Lang, you have finally arrived, but you have made us miserable!" Zhang Liang said with emotion, and as he spoke, he wiped the tears that he had managed to squeeze out with his sleeves.

Li Yin was about to answer Zhang Liang's words, when a person dressed as a scribe stepped forward to pay homage and said, "I have seen Lord Lang General under the Yanmen Yingyang Mansion Sima Pan Renhai." ”

Liu Hong immediately looked at this Pan Renhai with critical eyes, he originally thought that if there was no Sima in the Yanmen Yingyang Mansion, he would let Li Yin give him the job, but he didn't expect that there was already a master.

Li Yin was also a little surprised by this, "No need to be polite." ”

Pan Renhai said: "Lord Lang, Taishou They have now set up a banquet in Huiyanlou, and they want to catch the wind for the adults, when do you plan to go to the banquet?" ”

Li Yin was stunned for a moment, and was about to promise to go immediately, but suddenly saw Zhou An desperately giving him a look, knowing that there was something strange in it, so he said: "Then Pan Sima will go first, and I will arrive later." ”

Pan Renhai then left first.

After Li Yin saw that there were his own people all around, he looked at Zhou An, "Isn't this banquet in Yanlou a good banquet?" ”

Zhou An nodded, "According to our observation in the past two days, Yanmen County from the Taishou to the ordinary officials seems to be not very friendly to us, and now they suddenly want to feast on Lang General, I'm afraid that nothing good will happen." ”

Li Yin sneered: "The soldiers are coming to block, the water is coming to cover the earth, what tricks do they have, I will take it, transfer fifty brothers, let's go and meet them together!" ”

"This ...... Is this a use of force? Zhang Liang said with a pale face.

"If you're scared, go back and stay!" Liu Hong sneered.

Zhang Liang straightened his waist and said, "Who...... Who said I was scared? I, Zhang Liang, am not only afraid of the majesty of General Lang, but also afraid of ...... Who have you been afraid of? ”

Liu Hong still looked disdainful, but didn't say anything more.

Huiyanlou is the largest restaurant in Yanmen Pass, and now it has been chartered, and there is no idle person.

At this time, in the largest private room in the Yanlou Building, there were already many people, and the leader was full of white hair, dozing there, he was the Taishou Qiu Xingshan of Yanmen County.

Sitting at the bottom right of Qiu Xingshan is the tiger general Wang Zhibian, and the lower left is Chen Xiaoyi, the head of Yanmen County, after Wang Zhibi and Chen Xiaoyi, the civil and military officials of a county, Wang Zhibian's lower position is vacant, and it should be left to Li Yin.

At this time, no one spoke in this private room, and the atmosphere was very depressing, only the snoring of Lord Taishou Qiu Xingshan echoed in the meantime.

Juncheng Chen Xiaoyi coughed and glanced at everyone, "If this Li Yin has to ruin our wealth, then what should we do?" ”

Qiu Xingshan suddenly opened his eyes and asked with a confused expression, "What road is broken?" Then send someone to repair it immediately, otherwise it will delay the emperor's decree, but you will be killed......"

Qiu Xingshan seemed to continue talking, and Chen Xiaoyi immediately interrupted him: "Back to Lord Taishou, the road in Yanmen County is very smooth, and there is nothing wrong at all!" ”

Qiu Xingshan said "oh", and continued to close his eyes and doze off.

Sima Pan Renhai's eyes flashed and said: "Under our coercion and temptation, it is impossible for Li Yin not to agree to our conditions!" ”

Chen Xiaoyi said: "It's hard to say, judging from the information I have obtained, this person belongs to the lord of oil and salt." ”

Everyone in the private room discussed for a while, and finally looked at Wang Shengbian, who had not spoken.

Wang Seng said a word expressionlessly: "Kill!" ”

This is exactly the answer that Chen Xiaoyi and the others wanted, so after hearing this, they all nodded and stopped saying anything.

"Eagle Yang Lang will bring Master Li here!" The little guy at the door of the Yanlou shouted, and in the private room, except for the Taishou Qiu Xingshan, these people with their own thoughts stood up.
