Yuguan, also known as Linyuguan, is the junction of the two states of Ping and Ying in the northeast, and is built according to the water of Chongqing. Chongqing water originates from the eastern foot of Yanshan Mountain, the river is abundant, the water flow is turbulent, so Sui Kaihuang three years, set up a pass here. In the east of Jieshi Mountain, descendants often misunderstand that Linyu Pass is Shanhaiguan, in fact, Linyu Pass is in the west of Shanhaiguan in later generations, and the Shanhaiguan area at this time is still subordinate to the Yingzhou land of western Liaoning, which belongs to the outside of the Guan.

Since the construction of the customs in the third year of the emperor's reign, Yuguan has become an important gateway between Hebei and the outside of the pass, and it is the northeast gate of the Youyan region. In the third year of the emperor's reign, Yin Shou, the governor of Youzhou, defeated Gao Baoning, the remnant camp of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and the invasion of the Goguryeo, Khitan, and Jin tribes united by Gao Baoning. Since then, Yuguan has been the most important gateway to the northeast of the Great Sui. At the eastern foot of Yanshan Mountain and the west bank of Yushui, a dangerous Guancheng stands here. After Wei Chong, the governor of Yingzhou, responded to Yang Guang's rebellion, Yingzhou east of Yuguan became a rebel, and Yuguan became the forefront of the northeast. At this time, on this Xiongguan, Li Jing led the army to the town here.

In the center of Yuguan City, there is a bell and drum tower, the bell tower is in the front, the drum tower is in the back, and the two floors stand side by side, which is collectively called the bell and drum tower. On the top of the bell tower hangs a large bronze bell, and the soldiers and merchants of the garrison rest according to the evening drum and morning bell. Whenever there is a war alarm, the big bell on the bell tower rings for a long time, and the whole city is also under martial law. Today, red lanterns are hung around the bell tower~, and colorful flags are erected. It shows a different day.

On the top of the bell tower, the general of the left god Wuwei and the squire of the military department. Li Jing, the marshal of the march of Yanshan Road and the Marquis of Wuwei, sat on the chair with a long sword hanging from his waist. On the table next to him, he held a black spot, meditating on the chess game in front of him. On the opposite side of the team, it was Fang Xuanling, the assassin of the Yingzhou inspection school, who was in charge of the white son, and Luo Yi, the governor of Yingzhou, was watching the battle.

Fang Qiao took the lead in the chess game and smiled: "Today, the new emperor ascends the throne, the whole world celebrates, it is rare for the marshal to be good Yaxing, and he is willing to accompany me to talk about a few games." Fortunately, very lucky. ”

Li Jing was thinking hard about the chess game and raised his head, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has ascended the throne, and the world can finally settle down again, this is the blessing of the world." It's just a happy day on the spot, I was selected by His Majesty as a marshal, commanding tens of thousands of troops here, delayed for many days, but so far I have not been able to kill a thief. The heart is ashamed, ashamed of the heavy responsibility of His Majesty. ”

"His Majesty's arrangement is also to seek stability, after all, there was civil strife before, and if you want to fight outside, you must first settle inside. At that time. Let the marshal not come out of the Yu Pass, that is for the sake of prudence, so that the enemy is outside the pass. His Royal Highness can go south with peace of mind to quell the chaos. Now the facts have also proved that His Majesty's decision is correct, and the general is at risk of Chongqing. He succeeded in blocking 100,000 enemy troops outside the pass, and His Majesty led a large army in March to quell the rebellion in the country. If the marshal had been asked to send troops directly to face Goguryeo. The victory or defeat may not be known, if the victory is naturally good, but if it is defeated, then the rear of His Majesty will be unstable. "Fang Xuanling, the acting assassin of Yingzhou, after receiving the appointment, he never set foot on the land of Yingzhou at all, Wei Chong refused to obey the order, and also led Goguryeo soldiers into Yingzhou, and Fang Xuanling could only stay outside the border of Yingzhou in the end.

Li Jing picked up the teacup and moistened his throat, "His Majesty's order was wise at the beginning, but now that His Majesty has officially ascended the throne and the civil strife in the Central Plains has been pacified, I can't sit here all the time as the general appointed by His Majesty to quell the rebellion." I think it's time to strike. ”

Luo Yi has no interest in chess, and he has long been a little drowsy watching the two bosses play chess, but today Li Jing personally invited him to come, and he had to come. At this time, listening to Li Jing and the others finally stopped talking about chess skills, he immediately recovered his spirits. "But His Majesty's previous order was to stick to Guanzhong, and not to go out of the Guanlang battle without authorization. Now that the new order has not arrived, we"

"In order to command the troops outside and seize the power when the time comes, His Majesty's will is naturally important, but we can't be too rigid in implementation, but we have to judge and decide whether to make adjustments according to the actual situation, and the purpose is to finally complete the mission assigned to us by His Majesty." Li Jing was unwilling to wait like this day by day. He felt that it was time to strike. The rebellion in the Central Plains had been put down, and his plan to oppose Wei Chong had just failed, which made him even more impatient. What's more, he now has more than 100,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and his strength is still superior to that of the Goguryeo. What made Li Jing a little impatient was that although Goguryeo had encroached westward for many years, it had only taken the opportunity to steal the area east of the Liao River. Their covetousness for the western Liaoning region has been ruthlessly repelled every time. But now, Wei Chong, who had defeated Gao Yuan, personally led Gao Yuan across the Liao River, and now Gao Yuan killed Wei Chong again and directly occupied Liaoxi. Li Jing was worried that the longer the Goguryeo people stayed in Yingzhou, the more their control over the western Liaoning region might increase. He wanted to take advantage of the fact that the Goguryeo people had a firm foothold in Liaoxi, take the initiative to attack, defeat Gaoyuan, and recover Liaoxi.

"The scouts in our army sneaked into Yingzhou and kept repaying, and now after Goguryeo killed Wei Chong, he has officially torn his face and began to send troops to loot all parts of Yingzhou in western Liaoning, robbing grain, robbing money, and even directly taking the Han people in western Liaoxi into slavery, preparing to take them back to Liaodong. These are our fellow brothers and sisters, and we cannot allow the Goguryeo people to succeed. I want to send troops immediately and rescue them from the customs. ”

"But His Majesty has not yet given the order to send troops, and besides, we are equal to the strength of the Goguryeo people, so it is a bit risky to go to war at this time. If you wait for the arrival of the imperial court's troops and horses, you will have a better chance of winning if you attack again at that time. "Fang Xuanling's words, in fact, are the attitude of the imperial court now, which must be to fight Goguryeo, and it must also be to take back Liaoxi. However, the imperial court did not want to start a war, but after preparation, it was necessary to prepare grain and grass, mobilize soldiers and horses, recruit people, and study combat strategies at the same time, etc., not to fight an unprepared war, and finally it was necessary to send troops to defeat Goguryeo, recapture Liaoxi, and even recapture the land of Liaodong, and even destroy Goguryeo. For the imperial court, for the new emperor, they stand in a higher position, so they also look farther, and when making plans, they also think more long-term, and consider the overall situation.

"Can't wait that long." Li Jing shook his head, "I can't wait for a day." At present, if we can't take advantage of the fact that the Goguryeo people have not yet gained a firm foothold, and when the imperial court is ready, the Goguryeo people will definitely have a firm foothold at that time, and the price to be paid for fighting again at that time will be great. Moreover, the people of Liaoxi can't wait for that time. ”

Fang Xuanling and Luo Yi stopped talking, Li Jing's words were very reasonable, not to mention that both of them were civil and military officials in Yingzhou, but they have not been able to take up their posts so far. If you wait until the imperial court sends troops to defeat Goguryeo before taking office, at that time, maybe it will be as Li Jing said, and Yingzhou will become a dead land.

Li Jing is not a timid person, and he has an adventurous nature in his bones. When the Turks attacked the north, he was ordered by the prince to go south to rescue. But he did not honestly rush directly to Huai'an to enter the city to help, but extremely boldly adopted various risky tactics such as mobile combat, various breakthroughs, and even encirclement points to send reinforcements, and finally snowballed to win one battle after another, and finally changed the situation of the entire Daibei. At that time, he was only in command of a few thousand soldiers and horses. Now that Li Jing is in command of nearly 100,000 people in Hanfan, how can he be lonely?

At this time, Fang Xuanling and Luo Yi were both interrupted by Li Jing's words, and their hearts were surging, and after thinking about it, they arched their hands together: "Since the Han and Jin Dynasties, Goguryeo has taken the opportunity to continue to recruit rebels, devouring and invading the land of my Han family, the four counties of Liaodong in the Han Dynasty in the past have now been occupied by Goguryeo, and now they want to take away my Liaoxi, and they have the ambition to covet Youyan, which all the Han people cannot tolerate. ”

A trace of emotion flashed in Li Jing's eyes, he slowly picked up the tea from the table, took two sips, and then said excitedly, "It's an honor for Li to have two help." ”

At this time, a burst of footsteps came, and the guards reported loudly: "Report to the marshal, the cavalry from the lower reaches of the pass is coming, there is a large group of people fleeing towards the city, and there is a large force of Goguryeo cavalry chasing behind." ”

Li Jing stood up violently, "How many Goguryeo soldiers are chasing, how far are the fleeing people from here?" ”

"There are hundreds of refugees, most of them are Han people in our Great Sui Yingzhou, only more than ten miles away from us, and there are about 300 Goguryeo cavalry in pursuit."

Li Jing slapped his palm on the table, and jumped up the chess pieces on the table, "How can this be true, the East Thief is too arrogant, only three hundred riders, and he dares to chase me down the city." Pass on my command, immediately go out of the ranger camp, don't save the fleeing people, and cut off all the heads of those arrogant Liao dog people. ”

"Obey!" The guards immediately took the order and turned away.

Fang Xuanling looked at Li Jing, "Marshal, the opportunity to send troops has come." ”

Li Jing nodded, "I immediately gathered my troops and horses and prepared to go out." ”

"Marshal, Luo Yi is willing to be the striker, please let a certain leader go to the battle first."

After getting permission, Luo Yi immediately went downstairs, rode his horse to the barracks, he only ordered a regiment of five hundred horsemen to leave the barracks and school, and led his troops to rush to the outside of the gate. After galloping for several miles, I have vaguely seen the dust in the distance, a group of people are helping the old and the young to flee in panic, and not far behind them, hundreds of Goguryeo cavalry have been roaring and waving their swords, they are getting closer and closer, I am afraid that these people will not escape from the city, they will be caught up by them.

Luo Yi turned around and shouted at the soldiers around him, "The Liao dog of the dog day doesn't take everyone in his eyes at all, can you bear it?" ”

"Can't!"

"The Liao dog of the dog day is unscrupulously in front of us, chasing and killing our fellow brothers and sisters, can you bear it?"

"Can't!"

"Good!" Luo Yi urged the horse to walk to the front of the horse team, pulled out his cavalry sword, and swung forward, "Then what are you waiting for, pull out your sword, follow me, kill!" ”

"Kill!" Five hundred knights shouted in unison, like thunderbolts. Luo Yi took the lead, and the standard-bearer behind him held high the Luo Zi General Flag and followed closely, followed by more soldiers with high fighting spirit and murderous spirit! (To be continued......) R1292
