After hearing the first series of bad news about the collapse of the auxiliary troops and the captivity of the county lord, Li Xin did lose some inches, but after a rapid march of hundreds of miles, he quickly calmed down. Being led by the nose like this is never a safe way, and it is difficult to guarantee that you will not fall into the enemy's ambush when you are exhausted.

Li Xin had a faint intuition that this invisible and uncaught enemy, whether it was from within the Mongol Tatars or not, seemed to be targeting him intentionally or unintentionally.

"Thank you Brother Kong for your remind, Li Xin thank you!"

It was just a moment of effort, and Li Xin, who was different from the previous anxiety, stood in front of him full of energy, Kong Youde sighed to himself, but his mouth was full of beautiful words: "General Li is a good man, and the sky is ......."

You came and I exchanged a few words that were not nutritious, Li Xin waved his hand and sent him out, he felt that Kong Youde had a moment of wanting to say and stop, but soon covered it up, after all, it was not a heart, and it could not be said too deeply, now I think that the three guards are unanimously opposed to him commanding the artillery battalion on behalf of Heisenberg, and it may not be a good thing that he does not insist on going his own way.

Li Xin squatted in front of the rudimentary map of Xuanfu, studied it alone for a long time, and finally chose their destination, Zhangjiakou Fort. From here, there is a high probability that the Tartars will return to the outside of the fortress. As long as you go here, you will definitely know the origin and purpose of these Mongolian Tatars.

At the same time, Li Xin sent a fast horse to Sanwei Zhucheng to send a message to warn, reminding the two places to pay attention to the movements of the Tartars and not to underestimate the enemy, and at the same time urgently dispatch a batch of military supplies to Wanquanwei Zhangjiakou Fort. After days of traveling, the supplies of the Three Guards have been exhausted.

Outside Zhangjiakou Fort is desolate and dilapidated, discarded broken waste can be seen everywhere, occasionally there are human bones scattered in the meantime, unknown birds of prey wander in the sky, chirping, where is there still half a cent of the prosperity of the former mutual market!

The Three Guards set up camp on the ruins of Zhangjiakou Fort, and at the same time scattered a large number of rangers to reconnoiter everywhere, and Li Xin wanted to know the exact location of the night attack on Xuanfu Town Tartar as quickly as possible. Although he concluded that the night attack on Xuanfu Town and the attack on the Tartars of the auxiliary camp were two different forces, he intuitively judged that there must be an inextricable relationship between the two.

Since the latter is playing hide and seek with him, then he will find the former first, and then he will not be in a hurry, and he will not be in a hurry.

After nightfall, a mysterious man dressed as a merchant with a Shanxi accent came to the ruins of Zhangjiakou Fort and asked to see Li Xin, who said that he was entrusted to deliver a letter.

Li Xin immediately met with this person and had a secret conversation with him for more than an hour before sending him away.

After sending off the mysterious messenger, several battalion officers who were close to Li Xin could clearly feel that their own general seemed to have the confidence that he had before and went straight to thousands of troops and horses, and his face did not change. Kong Youde, who was paying attention to Li Xin in the corner, shook his head and said to himself: "For the general, when there is thunder in the chest, and the face is like a flat lake, it is still shallow......

That night, the rangers reported that a group of Tartars escorting livestock and people broke through the border wall ten miles east of Zhangjiakou Fort and went north. Li Xin immediately dispatched the Ninth Cavalry Battalion to pursue and kill, and rescued hundreds of people and thousands of livestock in the first battle.

But to everyone's disappointment, the rescued population did not belong to the auxiliaries of the Three Guards, but the Imperial City Forbidden Army from Jingshi, the Imperial Horse Supervisor Wu Xiang Right Guard. What's even more surprising is still to come, after screening, the celebrant supervisor Si Zheng, and the director of Xuanfu Military Affairs Du Zhizhi are also impressively listed.

At this time, Du Zhizhi had lost the prestige of the military director, and he trembled like a frightened bird. After learning that it was the Three Guards who saved him, he howled and cried as if he had been amnesty, and the little eunuch next to him kept saying comfort, but he fainted under excitement.

Everyone was in a hurry to rescue again, and Du Zhizhi let out a long shout and woke up. I saw that he suddenly jumped up from the ground as if he was stimulated, shouting to see Li Xin, saying that he had something important to tell.

Although Du Zhizhi is vague and narrow-minded, he is quite polite to Li Xin, which naturally benefits from the emperor's trust, and a large part of it is determined by the first impression. Last year, the Tartars surrounded the Jingshi, and it was this little-known horse thief who dared to fight the Tartars with his own strength, and this courage and ability would be admired by ordinary people. Although Du Zhizhi is a eunuch, he is also a person, and he has no interests entangled, so he naturally has a good impression of Li Xinbao.

Li Xin appeased Du Zhizhi's affection and asked him to speak slowly.

"We have internal ghosts, our family is the gate of the city that was opened by the internal ghosts, they raided behind their backs, our family, our family hasn't understood what happened, so we ......"

He was too embarrassed to say a few words.

Li Xin moved, "Can Duke Du recognize the person who opened the city gate?" ”

Du Zhizhi shook his head, "I don't recognize it, but this person has a Liaoxi accent, no, it won't be Sun Ge Lao's subordinates......"

After the Guanning Iron Cavalry was wiped out last year, Sun Chengzong, the governor of Ji Liao, rebuilt the Guanning Army, and most of the soldiers under his command were Liao. Therefore, it is logical for Du Zhizhi to suspect that this military general with a Liaoxi accent is Sun's subordinate.

However, Du Zhizhi soon realized that Li Xin in front of him had an inextricable relationship with Sun Chengzong, and he had already said it when he wanted to keep his mouth shut. And Li Xin didn't care about these at all, what he cared about was this information, this information was so important that he was almost sure that the spy with the Liaoxi accent in Du Zhizhi's mouth was Wu Sangui, the rebel general of the Guanning Army.

It's just how did this Wu Sangui collude with the Mongolian Tatars? Or is it the rumor spread by Wu Sangui that the Mongolian Tatars were destroyed and imprisoned? Li Xin quickly denied the latter, and with Hong Chengchou's information as evidence, there was indeed a large group of Mongol Tatars eyeing outside the border wall.

"Can Du Gong tell Li Xin the details of that time?"

Du Zhizhi nodded again and again, so he told Li Xin about the nightmarish encounter that night.

It turned out that as soon as Hong Chengchou left, there was a force of cavalry that arrived in Xuanfu Town, claiming to be the Wheel Border Army, led by a general surnamed Zu, and after the inspection of the relevant officials of the Governor's Palace, the seal of the transfer of troops and marching was readily available. Du Zhizhi was still very happy, he could have thousands of cavalry as help, and he was not afraid of the so-called Tartars to invade the side. So he ordered the ancestral staff who led the troops to enter the city to rest.

Who knew that it was this order that made him regret it, and this ancestral general attacked and killed the border general guarding the city that night, and killed the leader of the right guard of the Imperial Horse Supervisor Wu Xiang on the spot, and captured all the leaders in the city alive. Then the city gate was opened, and the Mongolian Tartars did not know when they had entered the border wall, and they hid outside Xuanfu Town, so they swarmed in, burned and looted.

A good Xuanfu was ruined alive in his hands Du Zhizhi, and when it came to emotion, he couldn't help but cry, beat his chest and feet, and even shouted sorry Long live, he had no face to live in the world.

In Li Xin's view, this performance is half-true and half-false. Crying and crying, tears flowing, I'm afraid most of them are self-harm.

Hearing the truth, Li Xin sighed that Xuanfu Town was destroyed by internal and external collusion. If Hong Chengchou is in charge, the shape will not be like this, if not......

Li Xin was silent for a while, there was no assumption in the matter, he could only do his best to save his subordinates and save this crisis that had become a fait accompli.

……

Fifty miles north of Longmenwei, at the source of the monolithic water, Wu Shanjing, who looked even darker and thinner, listened to the lama in Zang Hong's monk's robe pointing to a valley waterway in front of him.

"The terrain of Longmen River is dangerous, two mountains and one water, the great light of the Buddha is full of mercy, and the banner of General Wu is ......"

Wu Shan just nodded, he was very unimpressed with this Mongolian lama, he didn't understand why the Khan kings of the Mongolian tribes were relieved to let this stupid pig-like Lobsang Gyaltsen bring people to cooperate with him. Or the Mongolian Khan kings didn't take him Wu Sangui seriously, and deliberately sent a fool to trap him......

Thinking of this, Wu Sangui, who was alias Wu Shan, showed a trace of killing intent in his eyes and it was fleeting.

"What the Dharma King said is extremely true, Wu dares to ask when he can do it?"

The Great Lama Lobsang Gyaltsen shook the fat on his face, and said with a smile: "Soon, soon, don't worry, it's just a matter of one or two days, just wait for the Khan King's troops to take place, and General Wu can let it go." ”

Wu Sangui has been waiting for more than a month for this day, and this time he wants to ask the surnamed Li to taste, what is there to go and no return. In fact, he made a deal with the Khans of the Mongolian Uzhumuqin tribe to help the Uzhumuqin tribe break the Xuanfu and plunder the goods, and the Uzhumuqin tribe allowed its grassland as a base.

Xuanfu Town has been completed, Wu Sangui can get out of the side wall and get rid of the danger of being hunted down, but there is always a trace of uneasiness in his subconscious to constantly remind and warn him that Li Xin will be the nemesis and mortal enemy who will accompany him in the second half of his life, if he is not removed, I am afraid that there will be no peace, so he came up with such a trick.

I only heard the lama sigh again: "The big river is catching up with the peach blossom flood, cut off the source can wade through the water, as long as he dares to come, we only need to seal the front and back valley mouths, and then release the water is the lion and beast can not escape!" General Wu is really the king of Gesar among the Han people......"

He didn't know who Gesar was, and Wu Sangui also understood that he was praising him. Goosebumps came all over his body when he heard a beautiful remark, and he was only curious about how this great lama behaved like a monk, compared to those flamboyant people in the market.

Then Wu Sangui had to be patient to accompany him to praise each other, "Where is it, Wu Mou's virtue is thin and shallow, and this is inseparable from the great help of the Faking......"

Lobsang Gyaltsen looked very useful, and the flesh and eggs on his face seemed to bloom with a smile, "That's nature, that's nature......"

Wu Sangui scolded with a straight belly, this guy has no one with a thick skin, does this person not know the height of the sky, or is he so arrogant...... I only heard the great lama continue:

"There is also the protection of the Great Light Buddha, leaving the illumination of the Great Light Buddha, you and I will fall into boundless darkness."

Wu Sangui couldn't wait to step forward and pull out Luosang Gyaltsen's mouth......
