After another three days, Zhao Chongxuan of Tuoyun Fort sent a message with a flying pigeon, saying that since he got the news, he had immediately made preparations to meet the enemy, and also sent several teams of scouts to the northwest to investigate, and the scouts even crossed the frozen Zhenzhu River for a time, but did not find any traces of the enemy.

This news made Zhao Ziliang extremely puzzled, where did the Tirish army near Frozen City go? Just when Zhao Ziliang was puzzled, Wang Can came to report: "General, the big thing is not good, the secret agent of Moon Bow City sent a flying eagle message, saying that Erweitler's five thousand soldiers and horses have arrived in Moon Bow City, but the people and horses of Tuhuo Fairy and Du Modu have not appeared!" However, our spies in Shattered Leaf City sent a message from the Flying Eagle that the Fire-Spitting Fairy had returned halfway with soldiers and horses, but there were 3,000 fewer people! Dumodus is gone."

"Three thousand?" Zhao Ziliang raised his eyebrows, "I'm afraid that Du Modu did not return to Broken Leaf City with these three thousand, but went south, which means that the news of the army found by our secret agents in Frozen City is true, but this army did not go to the direction of Tuoyun Fort, if they go to Tuoyun Fort, it is impossible for the scouts sent by Zhao Chongyu not to find them, three thousand men and horses are not a small number!" ”

After speaking, Zhao Ziliang once again set his eyes on the map on the wall. Didn't go to Toyun Fort, so where did this 3,000-strong Turkey army go?

Suddenly, Zhao Ziliang's gaze stayed at the position of Dunduocheng, and his eyes became sharp. Dunduo City is in the east of the frozen city, at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, there are a small number of Turgish people living here, due to the Tianshan Mountains, there is no road from Dunduo City to the land of Anxi, in fact, Dunduo City is not far from the exchange city, if it is not for the Tianshan Mountains in the middle, the distance between the two places is actually very close, closer than the transfer city to the city of Seed, but because of the Tianshan Mountains, the two cities basically have no contact.

Zhao Ziliang stared at Dunduo City for a while, and then moved his gaze down, and put it in the southeast of Dunduo City, there is a Bodaling Ridge on the Tianshan Mountain in the southeast of Dunduo City, the temperature is high in summer, and the ice and snow will melt partially, at that time, there will be a few Tuqi Shi herdsmen carrying some fur on their backs to cross the Boda Ridge to the Big Stone City by the Hulu River River to trade with the locals, and then buy back some grain, but the terrain of this place is extremely steep, it is easy to slide down the valley and die, and only those who are bold and not afraid of death, The herdsmen around the city of Dundo, who did not want to travel far, would do so, and the army would not be able to pass at all, but it was summer, and it was winter, and it was snowing heavily, and even the most physically strong and agile people could not pass through Bodaring, let alone march the army, and it was impossible for an army to cross the Bodarling Ridge.

At this time, Zhao Ziliang's eyes suddenly noticed a river next to Dunduo City, the name of this river is called the Swap River, if there is any connection between Dunduo City and Swap City, this Swap River is the only connection, it originates from Bodaling, bypasses Dunduo City, and then crosses the Tianshan Mountains to link Dunduo City and Swap City, but due to the topography, this river cannot pass through ships at all, and the terrain on both sides is precipitous, so even if there is a river connection, Dunduo City and Swap City do not have any connection. The Hulu River and the Diao River just met near the Diao City to form the Sihun River, and the Sihun River finally flowed into the Chi River.

Zhao Ziliang rubbed his forehead, turned to look out the window at the white, he suddenly thought of something, and shouted: "Not good!" Wang Can, you go and ride a horse to the river to see if the river is frozen, and if it freezes, whether the ice can carry a large weight! ”

"No!"

Wang Can quickly went back and forth, and reported to Zhao Ziliang: "General, the river is already frozen, and it is very thick, and people can walk on the ice!" But the ice was too slippery for the horses to walk."

Zhao Ziliang's face changed drastically when he heard this, and Wang Can felt bad when he saw this, and immediately asked, "General, what's wrong?" ”

Zhao Ziliang said: "I know where Du Modu went with those three thousand people!" ”

"Where did you go?"

"They're coming at us for the city!" Zhao Ziliang said and turned around and pointed to the map and said: "You see, from Dunduo City to our Swap City, there is this Swap River, if it is usual, the people of our Swap City and Dunduo City will not be able to communicate at all, because there are Tianshan Mountains to block, but if the Swap River freezes, it will be different, Dunduo City is on higher ground, and the people there can sit on the ice and slide all the way to Swap City, and the speed will be very fast, it seems that Du Modu wants to use this method to kill my Anxi land, and the first to be attacked is our Swap City!" ”

Wang Can was shocked: "Ah-general, if the Tuqi Shi people really plan to do so, I am afraid that they have already arrived in Dundo City at this time, and they have begun to slide towards the Swap City!" ”

Zhao Ziliang's face became solemn, and he immediately said: "Immediately pass on the general's military order, within a cup of tea, the whole army is fully armed and assembled in the school field, all the generals and soldiers must be present, and those who violate the order will be beheaded!" ”

"No!"

Under Zhao Ziliang's order, after a drum sounded, all the generals and soldiers had already assembled in the school field, and Zhao Ziliang and others also rode into the school field on war horses.

After dismounting, Zhao Ziliang went straight to the review stand, walked to the front of the stage and said loudly: "Now to carry out an urgent task, the first and third battalions, the scout team, and the Modao team will immediately go out of the west gate with the general to carry out the task, and the second battalion will leave two hundred people led by Chen Biao to guard the city, and the others will move with the army, and the baggage battalion will follow with three days of grain and grass. ”

"No!" All the lieutenants agreed in unison.

Zhao Ziliang waved his hand: "The scout battalion goes first, the cavalry battalion, the second battalion, the Modao team, the remaining personnel of the third battalion, and the baggage battalion follow, and the army sets off."

Under the command of Zhao Ziliang, the army quickly and orderly left the city from the west gate, and when the last grain and grass of the baggage battalion left the west gate, the city gate slowly closed.

Such a big movement, naturally it is impossible to hide the people of the City Lord's Mansion, Pan Lengleng quickly got the news, but Zhao Ziliang did not send someone to inform him of what happened, he immediately rushed to the Capture Mansion to inquire about the situation, but Li Wentong, the captain on duty in the Capture Mansion, had nothing to say to him, and he angrily rushed to the gate of the West City with some city guards to find Chen Biao.

Pan Leng coldly rushed to the entrance of the city and asked, "Captain Chen, what's going on?" Why did General Zhao suddenly leave the city with a large army? Why do you keep the gates shut? ”

Chen Biao arched his hand and smiled: "Lord Pan doesn't need to be angry, Chen got the general's order and was about to send someone to inform the adult, but I didn't expect the adult to come, it's like this, the general just received the news that the enemy army was found outside the city, and the general was worried that the city would be attacked, so he took the army out to find the enemy, and ordered his subordinates to lead the army to defend the city!" ”

Pan laughed coldly, "Hahaha······ Found enemy troops outside the city? Swap the hinterland of Anxi deep in the city, how can the enemy army fight here? Isn't that ridiculous? Captain Chen, I think you're treating me as a three-year-old, right? ”

Chen Biao pointed to the river in the distance and said, "Does Lord Pan know what kind of river it is?" ”

"Swap the river, of course! Don't turn around and talk about him, Captain Chen, you'd better tell the truth to Lord Ben! Pan looked at Huo Kan coldly and said angrily.

Chen Biao said: "Now that the river is frozen, people can pass on it, and the general has received news that there are enemy troops from Dunduo City who are sliding down the Pai Yi River by relying on the convenience of the high terrain, and are trying to attack our Pa Chang City!" Your Excellency should go down and appease the people who are going out of the city, for if something goes wrong, your lordship will be held guilty! ”

Pan Leng Leng Leng Leng listened to his face and changed his face, and saw that he didn't look like he was lying, so he immediately turned around and went down the city tower to persuade the people who were going out of the city.
