The days in the north are long.

When the capital is in charge, it is still very bright.

Xiang Wei stood on the wall of Yumen Pass, looking at the scenery that he had been accustomed to over the years, and frowned slightly.

Since the fall of the Northland last year, Xiang Wei has known that the situation in the North will hardly be the same as in previous decades.

Led by General Gu, a layer of defense lines was laid out on the northern border, and Yumen Pass was used as the last barrier in the northern border, strictly guarding the rear.

The soldiers in front of them fight with Beidi every year, some big and some small, back and forth, sometimes like a small fight, sometimes it is a painful blow in exchange for a few years of stability, these are common things, and now, this balance has been completely broken.

Don't look at Beidi now retreating to the grassland, they did lose a lot in the mountain pass, but it is really not a broken muscle, and they are still dormant at the moment, not so much that they have injured the fundamentals, but that Ansu Khan's body is not healthy enough, and Beidili is uneven.

It's just that Ansu Khan is not at the end of his crossbow, once he recovers, then Beidi will inevitably go south.

In particular, the garrison of the north is really not as good as it was before the accident.

Recruits are recruits, and there is a big gap between the recruits who have been added and the veterans who have died in previous battles.

Xiang Wei trained by himself, his eyes were vicious, and he knew at a glance that this was not limited by talent, but experience and insight, but unfortunately, the current northern territory did not have so much time for them to train troops.

Moreover, the time given by the imperial court is also very small, and the position of General Zhenbei cannot be empty all the time, Xiang Wei is used to following the two generals of the Gu family, once he changes to the new peak, who knows what kind of character the other party has and whether he can get along.

Not to mention that Jiang Muyuan and the Gu family didn't want to hand over the general seal, Xiang Wei also wanted the general seal to stay in the hands of the Gu family, take a step back, and stay in the hands of the generals who were born and raised in the north.

Only such a new peak will understand the northern border, know how to deal with the Di people, soldiers need experience, generals need the same, and the set in other places may not be suitable for the north.

Xiang Wei even thought that when it really came to that juncture, he would automatically ask the imperial court to take the general's seal first, at least he knew what the people in the north were thinking, and then let a few boys of the Gu family experience some time under his command, and when they made contributions and could carry the banner, he would retire again, tell the old man to the saint, and exchange the general's seal to the Gu family.

Anyway, his son Xiang Wei doesn't have that much ability to take over, so he can't do it, so he will take it for a few years.

It was Jiang Muyuan who persuaded him, saying that he hadn't reached that step yet.

After all, what is looking at the current situation is Beidi, Ansu Khan is really determined to go south, and whoever the general of Zhenbei is, he may not be able to defend it at the moment.

If there are not enough people, you can still find a way, and the silver of the imperial court is not enough, can you really let the soldiers drink the northwest wind?

How to fight that battle.

Jiang Muyuan revealed the idea of a surprise attack to Xiang Wei, although Xiang Wei felt that the risk was extremely high, but after thinking about it, there was no better way.

Either a sharp knife pierced Beidi's heart, so that they would not dare to invade for the next five or ten years, or they would resign themselves to fate, when Beidi's army pressed south, the north would hold on, it was really unbearable, and their northern soldiers were worthy of everyone.

To put it bluntly, I am looking forward to the death of Ansu Khan.

Ansu Khan died, and his sons made a fuss, and they really couldn't care about coming to the north to make trouble.

Xiang Wei thought a lot alone, the view on the city wall was excellent, his eyes were sharp, and he saw the lone person in the distance, and his heart beat faster.

At first glance, it is a herald, but don't spread any earth-shattering news......

It was cold thunder who came to deliver the message.

Xiang Wei hurriedly came down from the city wall, and saw that Han Lei had only dust and no blood on his body, and most of his hanging heart fell.

Fortunately, it wasn't the Northland that had a crisis.

Looking at Han Lei's expression again, he was solemn and cautious, even if he didn't speak, Xiang Wei knew the other party's intention.

"The little grandfather has made up his mind?" Xiang Wei lowered his voice and said, "When to go?" ”

"Tomorrow night." Han Lei replied.

Xiang Wei twisted his eyebrows.

So fast? So nervous? Isn't it a temporary day? Otherwise, there will be a buffer of three to five days......

"Is Yunkang back?" Xiang Wei exclaimed.

Han Lei pursed his lips heavily: "Gu Sanye didn't come back, it's because there is another situation, the little grandfather said that he can't wait any longer, if he misses this time, the opportunity is difficult." ”

Xiang Wei took a deep breath.

It's not that Gu Yunkang has returned, and it doesn't seem like something is wrong with Beidi, that is, ......

Xiang Wei turned his head and looked south, which was the direction of Jingshi.

Although he didn't know the inside story yet, he wanted to come to the little grandfather to have his own information channels, and something happened in the capital, forcing Jiang Muyuan to have a quick decision.

Thinking of this, he nodded to Wei Chong Hanlei: "I will guard Yumen Pass in the rear, and Vice General Luo will be transferred to the Northland to temporarily guard the Northland City." ”

Han Lei is not surprised, this is what Jiang Muyuan and Xiang Wei have discussed before, once all the elites of the North Land are out, there must always be an existence that can stabilize people's hearts, and Vice General Luo is the most suitable general who has been under Xiang Wei for more than ten years.

Xiang Wei asked people to inform Vice General Luo, and seeing that Han Lei was about to rush back to the north, he stood up straight, looked into the distance, and said in a deep voice to Han Lei: "I wish you all triumphant." ”

The cold thunder is also heavy, and this time, everyone is looking forward to a triumphant return.

The dark night in the north finally came, and a campfire was lit in the camp tent of Yumenguan.

Xiang Wei stood in front of the map of the big tent with his back hand, looking at it for a moment.

Xiang Wei hadn't seen the map that Jiang Muyuan brought back, but the little grandfather pointed him out where Beidi's pioneer camp was roughly located.

What Xiang Wei is looking at now is that position.

He hated to turn into a sharp arrow, go straight to the north, and go all the way to Beidi's camp to kill the Quartet, even if it was broken there, what did it matter?

He is not young anymore, he still has the strength to guard the rear, he really goes into battle to kill the enemy, it will be okay in the past few years, but in a few years, who knows?

It is already a great fortune to be able to fight for decades, and not lack hands and feet to save his life.

Like General Gu and Gu Zhiyuan, it is common for them to die on the battlefield.

In the end, he can burn an ember fire, and Xiang Wei is willing.

At least, it's better than letting the young elites fight to the death, and those young people are the hope of the north in the future.

The Gu family, in terms of seniority, is still his nephew Xiang Wei, in the end, he still has to let his nephews fight, he left the old bones behind, although it is for the sake of military exploits, why not worry about their lives?

Let's talk about Jiang Muyuan, not to mention his outstanding background, he is a Tianjiao.

Xiang Wei threw a heavy fist.

Again, I wish you all victory.

The next day, under the afterglow of the sunset, Vice General Luo stood on the wall of the North Land, and said the same thing to the soldiers who were ordered under the wall.

I wish you all triumphant.
