Chapter 007: Three Passes of the West Road

"Master Bu, in Xia Li Moke, is the nephew of King Li, a few days ago, Moke and King Li together, was detained by An Lushan in the Fan Yang Army, fortunately Miss Yan rescued him, Moke was out of the tiger's mouth. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoBefore Uncle and Miss Yan went to Chang'an, they ordered me to take charge of the Tongluo warriors and assist Mr. Bu. ā€

"It turned out to be Li Gongzi, and Bu was disrespectful!" Bu Yunfei arched his hand and said.

King Li is Li Riyue. As the nephew of King Tongluo, Li Moke should have received a good education. Moreover, he has the strength of the Tongluo people, and he should be a talented person who can write and martial arts. These days, more than 100 Tongluo warriors follow Bu Yunfei, advance and retreat in an orderly manner, and can attack and defend well, all of which are all good at leading the troops by this Li Moke.

"Moko escorts Bu-sama down the mountain, Bu-sama be careful!" Li Moke held a torch in one hand and a waist knife in the other, very heroic.

"Don't call it a step master in the future, if you don't dislike it, we will be brothers in the future."

"Yes! Eldest brother! Li Moke was overjoyed.

In a bloody battle in Cangyan Mountain, Bu Yunfei has become the spiritual leader of more than 300 people, and everyone has become brothers in life and death.

Under Li Moke's support, Bu Yunfei groped his way out of the crack in the stone.

For a long time, when his feet touched the ground, Qin Xiaoxiao's voice came from beside him: "Brother Yunfei!" ā€

Bu Yunfei hugged Qin Xiaoxiao in his arms: "Where was it bitten by a wolf?" ā€

"Let go of me! Let me go! Qin Xiaoxiao's face was red and his ears were red, and he struggled.

Only then did Bu Yunfei notice that Chang Shanjian, Xiao Weijun, and Tongluo Wushi were all around, and more than a dozen torches illuminated the surroundings, and everyone stared at him and Qin Xiaoxiao.

Bayegu said in a muffled voice: "The princess's shoulder was grabbed by a wolf's paws, and the younger brother did not protect her well, please punish the eldest brother." ā€

Before Bu Yunfei could reply, three hundred people said in unison: "I don't care enough to protect the princess, and I am willing to be punished by the eldest brother!" ā€

Tonight, everyone's lives were saved by Qin Xiaoxiao, this princess who can run the mountain road completely convinced everyone!

Qin Xiaoxiao's shoulder was covered with blood, but fortunately, the wound was not deep, it was just a skin injury.

Bu Yunfei saw that Qin Xiaoxiao was fine, so he let go of his hand and said with a smile: "Lord Princess, Hongfu Qitian, I am all stained with the light of the princess!" ā€

"I'm not a princess!" Qin Xiaoxiao said in a low voice.

"Princess Yinyao is the emperor's royal name, and the ministers dare not trespass the etiquette!" Chao Yongzhi said, knelt down to Qin Xiaoxiao, and bowed.

More than 300 people knelt together.

Qin Xiaoxiao was at a loss: "General Chao, please get up, please get up quickly!" ā€

But after listening to him, Fang Ruoxu said leisurely: "Chao Yongzhi, what did you say on the mountain?" ā€

Chao Yongzhi said loudly: "Chao is willing to listen to the princess's drive and go to the soup and fire, and he will not give up!" ā€

"It's time to go to the soup and go to the fire!" The crowd shouted in unison.

"Big brother, you have to be careful in the future!" Fang Ruoxu said in a low voice.

"What am I careful of?"

"These people have all become the hardcore of the ugly girl!" Fang Ruoxu sighed: "Big brother, in the future, don't mention the three words ugly girl again, if you annoy her, you will annoy a group of wolves!" I don't have any good fruit to eat! ā€

"Is it that serious?" Bu Yunfei muttered, turned around and asked, "Where have we been?"

The walking monk walked out from behind the crowd: "My lord, this should be Xijinggou." ā€

"Xijinggou?"

"This place is on the west side of Jingcheng Pass, it is a natural stone ditch, and there are cliffs on both sides, so it is called Xijing Ditch!"

"West of Jingcheng Pass? You mean, we passed the Jingcheng Pass? ā€

"Strictly speaking, it can't be said that it has passed the Jingcheng Pass." The monk said: "However, Xijinggou is located at the mouth of Jingcheng, that is, west of Guguan. The most dangerous place in Jingcheng Pass is in the solid pass, and after the solid pass, there is no pass in front. Standing on the Xifeng cliff, you can see Xijinggou, but if you want to go here, you have to walk two days of mountain roads. I really didn't expect that this wolf road would lead straight here! Step Lord Hong Fu Qi Tian! ā€

Bu Yunfei was greatly surprised, according to the monk who walked, they actually went around the back of Jingcheng Pass!

Cai Xide will definitely not be able to catch up with them.

However, they broke into Wang Chengye's territory!

Chang Shan joined the army Cao Menglin said: "If this is the case, then, we should be Niangzi Pass in front!" ā€

Niangzi Pass is a more important pass in Taihang Mountain than Jingcheng Pass!

They were sandwiched between Niangzi Pass and Jingcheng Pass.

"Big brother, what should we do?" Fang Ruoxu asked.

Bu Yunfei was silent - although he escaped death, he was attacked on his back.

……

On the ninth day of December in the winter of the fourteenth year of Tianbao, Niangzi Guan.

Yangquan Pass, Niangzi Pass, Jingcheng Pass three points and one line, traversing the middle of Taihang Mountain, commonly known as the West Road Three Passes. Among the three levels, the most dangerous is the Niangzi Pass. Legend has it that when the Tang Dynasty was founded, Princess Pingyang, the third daughter of Tang Gaozu and the sister of Tang Taizong Li Shimin, led the Niangzi Army to fortify here, hence the name Niangzi Pass!

Niangzi Pass is known as the ninth pass of the Great Wall, or the ninth pass in the world, and the importance of its geographical location can be seen from this. Niangzi Pass controls and curbs the throat of Hedong in Hebei, echoes with Jingcheng Pass, supports each other, and has been a battleground for soldiers in the past dynasties.

Hedong is the land of the Tang Dynasty, with immeasurable political significance, and its status is even more prominent than that of the two capitals. Therefore, since the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, Hedong has been the military town of the Tang Dynasty, and Niangziguan is the gateway to Hedong, and its strategic position is more prominent. Since Gaozu ascended the throne, the Tang Dynasty court built a castle lookout here, garrison armed, after nearly 100 years of repair, the high wall of Niangzi Pass is thick, looking from afar, it is like a copper wall and iron wall, it is regarded as the world's Xiongguan.

However, in the Tianbao period, Niangziguan gradually declined.

During the Kaiyuan period, the national strength of the Tang Dynasty reached its peak, the territory of the Tang Dynasty was expanding day by day, there was Lingwu Town in the northeast and west of the river, where there was a strong town in the northwest Shuofang Army, and there was a strong town in the northeast Fanyang, under the support of the two strong towns, Hedong Mansion became the interior, and it was difficult for people to imagine that Hedong would encounter threats from the outside.

The imperial court still stationed 20,000 troops in Taiyuan, Hedong Prefecture, which was under the control of Taiyuan Yin. However, these 20,000 horses were all stationed in Taiyuan City. After Wang Chengye served as Taiyuan Yin, in order to reduce military spending, he secretly stopped the repair of Niangzi Pass, and at the same time, also abolished the garrison of Niangzi Pass. Of course, to the imperial court, Wang Chengye still claimed that the repair of Niangzi Pass was carried out as usual, and the garrison still existed. All the imperial court salaries obtained as a result went into Wang Chengye's private pockets.

Until An Lushan's army approached Changshan, from Niangzi Pass to Jingcheng Pass, the entire Taihang Mountain West Road Three Passes, without a single soldier.

What is ironic is that Wang Chengye not only concealed from the imperial court, but also from An Lushan. Fan Yangjun, who was approaching Changshan, did not expect that Niangzi Pass and Jingcheng Pass were unfortified. Therefore, taking the precipitousness of Jingcheng Pass, they did not choose to attack Hedong, but waved their army south to capture Luoyang.

However, An Lushan's illusion will not last too long, he will soon find the emptiness of the Jingcheng Pass-Niangzi Pass line, as long as he sends a small detachment of 1,000 people, he can easily capture the three passes of the West Road, and then take Taiyuan directly.

Fortunately, Yan Gaoqing sent a secret report in time, and Wang Chengye hurriedly dispatched the Taiyuan army.

By the time An Lushan reacted, it was too late. The Taiyuan army has been stationed in Niangzi Pass, and the vanguard troops have taken control of Jingcheng Pass. However, even so, it is not difficult for An Lushan to take Niangzi Pass, because the combat effectiveness of the Taiyuan Army is too poor.

It's just that by this time, the main force of Fan Yang's army had already moved south to Luoyang, and An Lushan's attention was all focused on the southern front.

For An Lushan, the allure of Hedong has greatly decreased.

He only sent a small force to guard the front line of Jingcheng Pass and Niangzi Pass, and did not launch an attack.

Therefore, Wang Chengye was able to keep the Niangzi Pass!

Of course, in his report to the imperial court, he claimed to have repelled the crazy attack of 50,000 rebels, fought more than 30 large and small battles, took the lead, and stained his battle clothes with blood, so that he could hold the pass and crush the rebels' attempt to capture Hedong.

Now, Wang Chengye personally sits in Niangzi Pass, and he has only one thing to do, to send a battle report to the imperial court every day to capture the flag. The number of kills is carefully calculated, not too much, too much is ridiculous, and not too little, too little will not show the heroism of Lord Wang. It can't be the same, it looks like letterpress printing. The killing scene is full of poetry, in short, this is a very brain-consuming thing, you must go all out, use your brains, and not be negligent.

Wang Chengye set up his Chinese army tent under a waterfall. Since he arrived at Niangzi Pass, he has taken a fancy to this place at a glance, hanging for a hundred feet, spraying beads and scattered jade, old trees and withered vines, flowing clouds and blue sky, which is really a wonderful place for poetry. Of course, Wang Chengye sat in this good situation, not to write poems, but to write war reports, he now knows that writing war reports to the imperial court is the same as writing poems, both need rich imagination and inspiration! And inspiration and imagination are to be found in the landscape!

Today, Wang Chengye was dressed in chain mail, with a sword in his hand, sitting in the big tent with an angry face.

He just tore up the battle report written by the secretary in charge!

The battle report reads: Taiyuan Yin Wang Chengye personally climbed the city tower to beat the drum to help, the arrow in the chest, still did not retreat, the Taiyuan army fought 12 battles, killed 3,000 enemies, and won a complete victory.

That secretary has a brain in water!

Just three days ago, Wang Chengye had already been hit by an arrow in the chest! And that time it was three arrows! Five days ago, he had been hit by an arrow in his lower abdomen, and eight days earlier, he had been hit by an arrow in his thigh.

Now it's so unimaginative to use this bridge again!

It's okay to have no imagination, but the problem is that Wang Chengye was shot into a sieve by an arrow, and the court is about to change generals!

If the imperial court really changes generals, the battle reports of the past ten days will be completely exposed.

Isn't this putting Wang Chengye to death!

"Rewrite! If you write it in a mess, don't come to see this official, you dog, go to see An Lushan! Wang Chengye pressed his sword and drank.

The secretary was so frightened that he ran out of the big tent.

A staff member walked into the military tent and said carefully: "Lord Bing, Zhang Tongyou has returned from Chang'an!" ā€
