Chapter 227: The Pass Is Broken

Xiahou Rui decisively gave an order, and all the generals led in unison.

The Great War is about to begin.

The time set with them on Pingnan* was two nights later. Take the fire as the number.

In the past two days, Xiahou Rui's 300,000 army has been no different from usual on the surface. Normal drills, patrols. But in fact, secretly they have already begun to prepare for war.

As soon as the time comes, you can wave your army and go straight to the Yellow Dragon.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, the appointed date has arrived. Everything is ready, just waiting for an order.

But accidents always come by chance.

They were about to show their might, but they received an urgent report from Northern Xinjiang. In the northern part of Xinjiang, a large number of rebels suddenly appeared. The number of people is large, according to preliminary estimates, not less than 100,000 people.

……

At noon, an extremely fast flying eagle, with lightning speed, broke into the camp. One of the scouts jumped down from the eagle before it could land on the ground.

"Report it! Northern Xinjiang Emergency! Hurry up to the general! ”

The scout held the battle report in his hand, shouted, and rushed towards the location of the general Xiahou Rui.

For this kind of urgent war report, no one dares to stop it. Not only will it not be stopped, but soldiers will open the way for it.

"Northern Xinjiang Emergency!"

The guards outside the tent only said this one sentence, and then directly pushed the door and let the scout enter the tent.

"Scout Three, meet the General. Northern Xinjiang Emergency! ”

The scout's words were succinct and to the point. The words fell, and the battle report was presented above his head with both hands.

Hearing that it was the No. 3 scout, Xia Hourui was shocked. Take two quick steps, and then you will be presented to the battle report, and take it in your hand and look at it.

(Dragon's scouts, divided into five types.) No. 5 is an ordinary battle report, No. 4 is urgent, No. 2 is dangerous, and No. 1 means that the troops have come to the city. The third is a special kind and represents uncertainty. Its base is expedited, but it may be more advanced. ）

After reading the battle report, Xiahou Rui's face was gloomy.

According to the war report. Two days ago, northern Xinjiang was suddenly attacked by a large number of rebels. The men were well-armed, and all of them were lightly armed, and they burned and looted for their supplies.

Because of the rapid movement, every time the army received the information and arrived, the people were already nowhere to be found. They wreaked havoc in the northern frontier. Not only that, but most importantly, the purpose of this group of people is an internal gateway.

That's no small feat. The defense within the border must not be as strong as the outside. If it is destroyed by the impact, it will be a disaster for the northern Xinjiang and even for Longteng.

"Kayamabu! I didn't expect it to be them. This group of people actually joined the traitors. is a good king of Jingnan, and he really has a good game. If you wait a little longer, this person will really be a great disaster. ”

After reading the battle report, Xiahou Rui muttered to himself. Then the already frowning brow furrowed a little more.

The situation in northern Xinjiang is unclear and the situation is unclear. I don't know what to do in the future. So at this time, he had to go back and personally sit in charge of the battle situation. Only in this way can we ensure stability.

It's not that he can't trust the people who stayed. It's just that it's not as good now as it was in the past. Not only internal worries, but also external troubles at critical times. If there is a slight fork in the matter, it will be a big problem.

So at this time, he had to go back and coordinate the overall situation. But here's the problem.

He is now the commander in charge of this rebellion. Before the Supreme Order, how can you leave without permission. Even if the general is outside, the military order is not subject to it. But here, it has reached a critical moment, do you want to just drop it?

But thinking about it, a few generals can cope with the war here. In this way, there is a decision.

"Pro-Guard!"

As soon as he finished speaking, one of the guards pushed the door and entered.

"General, do you have something to order?"

"Spread all the generals, come to the main account to discuss matters!"

Xiahou Rui commanded in a deep voice.

"Yes!"

The pro-guards moved very quickly. It didn't take long for the generals who came with Xiahou Rui to come to the main account one after another.

"General, but what's wrong?"

They had also heard about the scouts coming with war reports. So as soon as Huan Bo spoke, he went straight to the point.

"There's real trouble, you see."

As he spoke, he handed over the battle report and asked them to circulate it to each other.

After reading the battle report, several generals all frowned.

"Has the general made a decision?"

Tan Shuang asked.

"General Ben intends to leave for Northern Xinjiang immediately. This battle is entrusted to you. Believing in the ability of the Eels to be in charge of such a war, there will be absolutely no problem. ”

Xia Hourui directly said his plan.

"General, don't worry about going back to the town, a few of us will definitely treat it carefully and cautiously, so as not to make any mistakes. This Luo Tiancheng will definitely be taken down beautifully. ”

At this time, Yan Danqing opened his mouth and made a guarantee.

"Yes, General, you can rest assured to return to Northern Xinjiang. We're going to give you a win. ”

Tan Shuang also opened his mouth with a big grin at this time. But in his eyes, he was full of solemnity.

"Yes, don't worry!"

Several generals all made reassurances, reassuring Xiahou Rui.

"For a few of you, General Ben is still very relieved. Be cautious and remember not to be negligent. Be sure to avoid unnecessary casualties. ”

Xia Hourui is very protective of the soldiers under his hands. They will never be greedy for utilitarian gain, and they will not be disregarded for their death. It is precisely because of this that his soldiers are also very supportive of this general.

"Rest assured, General, we know that soldiers are the foundation of the army. So it will never be, in order to covet a little merit, to cause unnecessary casualties. ”

After some advice, several people were in the main account, and agreed in detail about the next battle to be carried out. After making sure that there was nothing missing, Xiahou Rui set off for Northern Xinjiang.

The war does not change depending on who leaves. In Luo Tiancheng, in the middle of the night, a fire was lit according to the agreement.

In an instant, the silent night became full of people. The shouts of killing, shouting and scolding, sounded one after another.

Everything went according to the predetermined direction, and it went quite smoothly.

When Tan Shuang opened the pass, he led the vanguard team and rushed straight in. The obstacles that I want to resist are cleared one by one. The rear army, which followed. It didn't take long for the two armies to come into close combat. A real large-scale fight was fought.

The battlefield was full of gunsmoke and corpses. The battle lasted from late at night until dawn, until the sun hung high in the sky.

The enemy was almost completely killed and wounded, and Xiahou Rui's army, although they were all elite soldiers, could not be unscathed in such a large-scale battle, and there were many casualties. Of course, compared with the other party, it is not even a dime.

"How? Did you find it? ”

Looking at the returning search soldiers, Tan Shuang asked in a deep voice.

"Back to Vice General Tan's words, Luo Tiancheng's City Lord's Mansion has long been empty. There was no trace of King Jingnan. We caught a handyman, and according to him, Long Qingyang had already slipped away with his guards as early as the eve of dawn today. ”

"Slipped? The dog thief ran fast, but he ran away, what next? Do we have to continue to send people to search for us? ”

Tan Shuang looked sideways at the general Huan Bo, intending to listen to his opinion.

"Send troops to search and arrest first, and if you really can't find anyone, report to the imperial court and issue a wanted warrant. At that point, there will be nothing to do with us. ”

Huan Bo was very good and gave him an answer.

"Trouble! It's our business to send troops to fight, and we have to clean up the mess first! ”

That being said, the order was delivered.

Seeing him like this, Huan Bo shook his head.

But by this time the dawn had passed nearly three hours. How can a man chase after running for so long? So after some tossing, it is reasonable to have no results.

Huan Bo asked Tan Shuang, Yan Danqing, and the two to lead the people to continue the pursuit. The rest of the people camped in Tianluo to rest.

They have a lot of things to do here, although they still have some tails to deal with. But overall, everything went smoothly. But in northern Xinjiang, there was chaos at this time.

The traitors who scattered individual stocks suddenly stopped harassing the towns in northern Xinjiang. Instead, they closed up and launched a surprise attack on the pass.

At the same time, a rumor spread in northern Xinjiang. In less than half a day, everyone knew about it.

Xiahou Rui, the general of Zhenbei, was robbed and killed by the enemy on the way back to northern Xinjiang, and his bones were gone!

For a time, this boiling rumor stirred up the people in northern Xinjiang. And when the army learned of these rumors, there was also a huge commotion.

The most important thing is that the scouts sent by the Zhenbei Army searched along the route from the northern Xinjiang to Luotian, but there was no trace. People, inexplicably, are gone.

And the generals in Luo Tiancheng naturally learned the news. After the scouts entered the city, they began to inquire about the specific situation.

"Generals, it's not that I don't want to say it, but there's really nothing to say. Because we have searched several times, we have not found any useful clues. It's like a general, who came out of you and disappeared out of thin air. ”

At this time, the scout is also troubled. It is impossible for a big living person to disappear out of thin air. But now it is uncertain whether the general left by himself or was robbed.

The generals in the main hall looked at each other. They didn't expect that as soon as the general left, he would be lost! But at this time, they can only be in a hurry. The matter here is not over, so naturally you can't leave your post without permission.

Although I am anxious, the only thing I can do now is to get things done as soon as possible. Only in this way can we contribute to the search for the general. can also return to northern Xinjiang as soon as possible.

But they didn't expect that when a few people were discussing how to close the tail as soon as possible, there was a big chaos in northern Xinjiang.

The traitors began to attack the pass and launched a full-scale attack. And in the Zhenbei Army, when it was at war. The army of the neighboring Celestial Wing Empire took advantage of the ruins to drive in. By surprise, and when the army became a little unstable due to the general's accident, he opened the pass of the northern frontier in one fell swoop.

The pass was breached, and the enemy army drove in. This not only indicates the invasion of the enemy army, but also indicates that this battle will threaten the survival of the Dragon Empire.
