Yin Mountain is a large mountain range in the eastern part of the country and the southern part of Beirong. Because the perennial snow is difficult to melt, and the yin and humidity are very heavy, it is called Yin Mountain.

And this time Ji Qingchen wants to enter Beirong from Yinshan, and then return to Dayan from Beirong, this road seems to have no obstacles, because there are no potential enemies, but he knows very well that their road ahead is very difficult.

Because there are very few people who have crossed Yinshan Mountain, only Meng Buge, known as the "strongest blade of Beirong", personally led a Beirong elite cavalry through Yinshan, and then entered the territory of Fengzhou, which caused panic to leave the country at that time, and he was the main general who led the tiger and leopard cavalry to defeat Meng Buge at that time.

In addition, from ancient times to the present, there is no record of anyone who has climbed over Yin Mountain.

And about Meng Buge's trip to Yinshan Mountain, as well as the panic caused by leaving the country, I haven't seen the historian's pen, let alone others, if it weren't for Ji Qingchen's personal participation in the killing of Meng Buge at that time, it is estimated that no matter how immortal he is, he would not dare to come up with a way to return to Beirong and Dayan through Yinshan!

And because there were many difficulties in crossing Yin Mountain, this made Ji Qingchen decide to fight with the eight thousand elite horsemen who left the country at the expense of the losses of the guards around him.

Because he knew that if his horse team wanted to cross the Yin Mountain, they needed to store a large amount of food, and they had been using the method of fighting to obtain food for the past two months, and this time if they wanted to successfully cross the Yin Mountain, they had to prepare a large amount of food as a support, and only the eight thousand elite horsemen who had killed Wang Qianchong and plundered their food could be used by their horse team.

That's why Ji Qingchen was prompted to start a war with Wang Qianchong's 8,000 elite horsemen!

Only then did Ji Qingchen's victory and Wang Qianchong's defeat come!

In fact, to be honest, this scene is full of many uncertain factors, but because of Ji Qingchen's decision-making that none of the generals doubted, Ji Qingchen defeated Wang Qianchong's 8,000 elite cavalry with only more than 400 people, and also killed 5,000 elite cavalry who left the country and obtained enough food for 400 people for two months, completely solving the problem of food for Ji Qingchen's horse team.

The Yinshan Mountains are undulating, and there are majestic and tall, so it has been covered with snow all year round from the halfway point of the mountainside, so if you want to cross the Yinshan Mountain, you have to find a road that can be passed in the snow, so that you can shorten the distance, in order to cross the Yinshan Mountain step by step, how did Meng Buge cross the Yin Mountain to kill the country Fengzhou, Ji Qingchen is not clear about this, he just wants to know the Dao of the Lu Dao and has no way to know the Dao, because the Brother Meng Buge is not his Dayan, he will not tell him, and now that Meng Buge has died in battle, I won't tell him anything, but this is not difficult for Ji Qingchen, because for Huang Taiji, Beirong, Meng Buge's deeds are not unfamiliar, because Meng Buge's feat completely established his title of "Beirong's strongest blade", so about how Meng Buge crossed Yin Mountain, and how he entered Fengzhou, these deeds are well known in Beirong, at that time, Huang Taiji also wanted to become famous in a fight, so he was very concerned about Meng Buge's trip to Yin Mountain, and he had put a lot of hard work in this regard. Therefore, even if I don't know the specific route, I still know the general route and direction of Meng Buge's crossing of Yin Mountain.

Therefore, with him leading the way, and four hundred men marching behind him, there were many fewer detours, and the speed of the march was much faster.

But even so, according to Ji Qingchen's estimate, it would take at least two months for them to cross the Yin Mountain to reach Beirong, which was still a problem on the way, and if there was any problem, it was estimated that the time would be doubled.

This made Ji Qingchen very distressed!

Therefore, since they went to Yin Mountain, they have no enemies, and there is no longer the threat of leaving the country.

But what followed was the severe cold and disease torture, and everyone knew in their hearts that only by being able to withstand the cold and resist the disease could they have the honor to cross the Yin Mountain.

It's just that the cold is not too difficult, and everyone has enough clothes to protect against the cold.

Only the disease aspect is a big problem, this is the weakness of Ji Qingchen's horse team!

Because after Ji Qingchen's understanding, he found that there was no military doctor in their group, if someone had a headache and brain fever or a sudden illness halfway, they didn't know what to do?

"What to do? This problem cannot be allowed to continue, and it must be solved as soon as possible, otherwise once there is a disease, there will be no medical personnel around, which will affect the morale of the army! Just when they were camping, Ji Qingchen thought anxiously in his heart, but he was very anxious, but he didn't say it to anyone, it's not that he didn't want to say it, but that everyone had no choice, so he didn't think about blocking everyone.

"What are you thinking, Brother Qingchen?" Just when Ji Qingchen was stunned alone, Shu'er walked up to him and sat down and asked.

"It's nothing, I wonder how long we can cross Yin Mountain!" Ji Qingchen didn't say what he really meant, he didn't want Shu'er to worry about these trivial matters.

Shu'er didn't find the perfunctory meaning in Ji Qingchen's words, thinking that Ji Qingchen was thinking about tomorrow's march, so she didn't bother him anymore, but sat beside Ji Qingchen obediently, and was silent with Ji Qingchen.

In the middle of the sound, Shu'er leaned on Ji Qingchen and fell asleep!

The next day, as soon as it was dawn, the army began to march again!

By this time they had been walking for eight days, and they were about to cross the hill in front of them.

But at this moment, Huang Taiji, who was leading the way in front, stopped his steps, because he was lost, and he didn't know how to go when he got here, there were too many roads leading to this mountain, and he didn't know which way to go in order to pass smoothly.

"What's wrong? What's going on up ahead? Ji Qingchen asked.

After a while, he saw Huang Taiji walk up to Ji Qingchen and tell the reason, saying that he was not sure about the road ahead and needed to reconnoiter before he could continue the march.

This is for the sake of caution Huang Taiji made such a decision.

And Ji Qingchen handed over the power to cross the Yin Mountain to Huang Taiji this time, and he agreed to Huang Taiji's request without the slightest hesitation, so that he immediately ordered the army to camp and rest, and let Huang Taiji lead a few people to the front to survey the route.

This survey lasted three days.

Three days later, just as Huang Taiji had determined the best route for the march, a big thing happened in the ranks, that is, the Northern Liao Wang Ji Qingchen was sick, and the illness was not light.

What can I do? Ji Qingchen, the king of Northern Liao, is the actual commander of the army, if he falls ill, will the army still be able to march? I can only stay in Yinshan and find a way to treat his disease!

But there are no doctors in the army, and there are no people who understand this.

This made Ji Qingchen's illness drag on for a day, and it was already very serious.

Gotta go, can't stop! This is the only way that Ji Qingchen thinks of in his heart, he must hold on, and he must survive until he crosses the Yin Mountain and returns to Beirong.

"Shu'er, you let Li Changzheng and Li Ke, Zuo Zongquan and Huang Taiji come to see me!" In the big tent, Ji Qingchen lay on the itchy mattress and said to Shu'er who was waiting for him beside him.

"You, Brother Qingchen, can't march anymore, otherwise your illness will be more serious......" Shu'er immediately understood what Ji Qingchen meant, and instinctively wanted to stop it, but heard Ji Qingchen say, "Shu'er, stay here, without the doctor's treatment, I can only die, if I survive the Yin Mountain and return to Beirong, I can still be saved, we can't delay any longer, we must march immediately." ”

"This-" Shu'er also knew that what Ji Qingchen said was right, but she was afraid that this march would affect Ji Qingchen's body and make Ji Qingchen more serious, so she was a little unbearable, but she still nodded slightly, and agreed to Ji Qingchen's proposal, so she silently walked out of the big tent.

Outside the big tent, Li Changzheng, Huang Taiji, Zuo Zongquan and Li Ke were silent around the bonfire. Seeing Shu'er walk out of the big tent, the four of them got up and asked Shu'er about Ji Qingchen's condition, and when they heard that His Royal Highness had summoned them to the big tent to discuss the military situation, they rushed into the big tent.

"This king will make a long story short, Li Ke, you ordered the army to leave and march, we continue to march, Huang Taiji, you continue to come and lead the way, we can't delay any longer." When Ji Qingchen saw the four people who walked into the big tent, he directly said his original intention.

"Brother Jiu, I'm afraid this won't work, your body can't withstand the toss in the heavy snow!" Li Changzheng was the first to speak, Zi Zi has been very anxious since Ji Qingchen fell ill, but it was useless to be anxious, and they couldn't think of a way, so they could only stop the march, so as not to worsen Ji Qingchen's condition, but now that Ji Qingchen wants to continue to march, how can this not make him anxious?

"That's right, Brother Jiu, we're almost at the top of the mountain, and now it's too humid outside, if we continue to march, I'm afraid your body won't be able to bear it!" Zuo Zongquan also persuaded.

And Huang Taiji and Li Ke on the side also echoed.

"You don't need to say anything, just do as the king wants!" Ji Qingchen said impatiently, "We can't sit still, we must cross the Yin Mountain, and we will meet Beirong quickly." ”

Seeing that Ji Qingchen had made up his mind and did not allow them to refute it, Li Changzheng and Zuo Zongquan and the other four had no choice but to withdraw from the big tent and order the army to continue marching.

And Ji Qingchen also dragged the sick body in the marching ranks.

Because the mountain road is difficult, it is impossible to ride a horse, and walking in the snow is a very physically demanding job, and if someone carries him, the speed of the march will be very slow. Therefore, Ji Qingchen refused Li Changzheng's suggestion, and insisted on dragging the sick body with everyone to join the army, only letting Shu'er support him by the side.

It took two days, and after two days they finally reached the top of the mountain.

However, after reaching the top of the mountain, they were desperate, because after climbing to the top of this mountain, they saw clearly that they wanted to climb over Yin Mountain, and there was a big mountain in front of them, and only after crossing that big mountain, they could be regarded as staring at the top of Yin Mountain.

This made the morale-boosting crowd deflated all of a sudden.

And at this moment, because Ji Qingchen's condition was aggravated, this made the army invisibly covered with a layer of decadence.
