Chapter 72: Here it is

After being closed in Yumen for two days, Huo Gang didn't say much about Wu Ping and the fact that they first used wood to build a residence for Huo Gang.

Because in the hearts of these ordinary people, only Huo Gang enjoys it, and they can accept Huo Gang's protection with peace of mind, this is the idea of this era, if Huo Gang really forcibly asks to eat and live with them, for a long time, these people will be panicked day and night.

On the third day, Huo Gang had just gotten up in the morning, and a sentry outside came straight to Huo Gang's residence.

"General Qiqi, it's news from Yang Lao Wu from Ake City." The herald who came in handed Huo Gang a small sealed wooden barrel, and Huo Gang opened the seal of the wooden barrel and poured out a roll of white paper inside and opened it.

"There are Turkic secret agents in Akcheng, who are inquiring about our information, and ask the general to decide."

There were just a few words on the note, Huo Gang couldn't help but smile bitterly, he felt that if he had the opportunity, he would definitely let them change this habit, and he must speak in detail.

Because of the preciousness of paper, the ancients spoke very concisely and did not say some nonsense.

Huo Gang felt that this line of words was estimated to be the first time that Yang Lao Wu had delivered a message to Huo Gang, so he wanted to write it in detail, otherwise, Huo Gang felt that there would be a maximum of ten words, and there could be no more.

"Pack up your things immediately, we will go back to Yangguan now, and at the same time tell Wu Ping, gather everyone, I have something to say." Huo Gang thought for a while and said seriously.

"Yes!"

With Huo Gang's order, the sound of "Dangdang" striking the gong soon came from outside, and when he heard this sound, the crowd began to gather continuously, and the people who were busy in various places stopped their work and concentrated in the city.

Originally, the Turks called the news, but there was no need to tell them, but Huo Gang felt that it was a good thing to let them know in advance about such things, because these things were also closely related to them, and they had to know that it was not easy for them to have such a peaceful life.

It took about half an hour for all the people to gather, they were all concentrated in the square in the city, Huo Gang stood directly in the middle of the crowd on horseback, and after looking at everyone around, Huo just spoke loudly.

"I just received a piece of news that the Turkic Qi Lifa has sent someone to inquire about our information, that is to say, it is not far from the time when the Turkic army comes, so next, I will leave Yumen Pass and go to war."

"This battle is related to whether we can survive in this Western Regions, if we win, I can tell you that from now on, who will also want us to leave this Western Regions, whether it is the Tang Dynasty or the Turks, if we are defeated, I, Huo Gang, will definitely go to see my ancestors and ancestors one step ahead of everyone!"

When Huo Gang said this, the crowd immediately whispered, "General, what can we do?" ”

"General, we are not afraid!"

"Yes, we're not afraid!"

Soon the voices of the people were heard in the crowd, and then the voices of the people grew louder and louder, and finally the sentence was left "We are not afraid!" ”

Looking at their worried but resolute faces, a smile appeared on Huo Gang's face, and he said loudly: "Of course we are not afraid, it should be them who are afraid, the reason why I am telling you this is because I want to tell you that I will lead people to fight bloody battles outside, and the home will be handed over to you!" ”

"In the days when I am not there, Mr. Wu will take me to command everyone, if you have any questions, please find Mr. Wu, I hope that when I come back, I can see a more prosperous Yumen Pass!"

"Please rest assured, General!" Wu Ping's old voice said loudly, and after speaking, he directly clenched his fists and bent over.

"Please rest assured, General!" Countless crowds of people clasped their fists and bent down to salute.

Soon, the crowd around Huo Gang neatly lowered their bodies, and the entire Yumen Pass was quiet!

"Good! Huo Zheng! Huo Gang said loudly.

"The last general!"

"Let's go!"

Huo Gang didn't hesitate, he directly turned his horse's head and walked in the direction of the city gate, the crowd neatly separated a road, everyone stood up straight, and watched Huo Gang and his group leave here.

"Did you hear that?! The general led the others to fight bloody battles in front, and we can't fight, but we can let the general know that the logistics have us! Everybody, get to work! ”

"Get to work!"

With Wei Ping's words, the crowd dispersed, and everyone rushed to their original jobs.

Huo Gang, who left Yumen Pass, called Wang Shan over and gave Wang Shan a special order, asking them to do a good job of Fengsui, Wang Shan and they must have no way to follow, because there can't be no soldiers here.

Wang Shan also knew this very well, but he also figured it out, because he knew that the battlefield was not a child's play, and they could not help much when they went to the battlefield, but they could play a greater role in staying in Yumen Pass.

Leaving Yumen Pass, Huo Gang and they went straight to Yangguan, Yang Lao Wu had already returned to Yangguan from Ake City, in this case, he would definitely send someone back.

When Huo Gang arrived at Yangguan, he immediately called Yang Lao Wu and them over.

"General, we found out in Acre City that someone inquired about us, and from what I learned, they wanted to know who the general was, and our troops, as well as our previous records, and so on."

"I found some connections and secretly followed them for a day, these people are in and out of measure, and they are very alert, and their bodies are very strong, and the most important thing is that judging from some of the jewelry and clothing on their bodies, they should be from the largest tribe of the Turks in the Western Regions, Tongluobu."

"Ashye, the leader of the Tongluo tribe, is the Western Turkic leader Yehu Khan's canonized Qi Lifa, who is in charge of all the Turkic armaments, defense, politics, etc. here."

"So I think Ashye should be ready to attack us." Yang Lao Wu said in a serious tone.

"How many troops can he draw." Huo Gang asked without changing his face.

"The population of Tongluo is not large, depending on his determination to us, if his determination is big enough, he can probably draw out tens of thousands of cavalry, but this is basically the limit. Among the tens of thousands of cavalry, the elite cavalry will not exceed 3,000 at most. ”

"If he doesn't have that much determination for us, it's about five thousand to seven thousand. Of course, it is also possible to bring only about 3,000 cavalry with all the elite cavalry directly under him. Yang Lao Wu thought about it and probably gave a number.

Although the territory of the Western Turks is vast, the population of the Western Turks is not large, and the troops that can be drawn are not as terrifying as imagined.

"But I don't think it's possible to have 10,000 cavalry, because he has drawn almost all his troops, and they and the tribes to which Luo belongs will have no defense! If other enemies take advantage of the opportunity, they will be left to the slaughter. Lu Yanzhen next to him suddenly spoke.
