Before dark.

The rain was pouring in.

After a short time, it poured like a galaxy.

The raindrops, which are bigger than beans, carry the chill of early winter, hitting people's faces hard and painful.

Two cavalry marched forward in the rain curtain that was grounded in the sky.

The rain was heavy.

It's also cool.

But when the lightning illuminated the heavens and the earth, it illuminated a pair of hot eyes.

Blood.

In the cold rainy night, it stirred silently.

In fact, many of them did not know the mission of this battle.

I don't know what kind of fierce battle will be waiting for them and welcoming them.

But just need to know.

They are heading for the enemy......

That's enough!

this world.

There are too many conspiracies, calculations, and conflicting interests.

Fortunately.

Warriors who dare to die for the sake of righteousness, more.

Drinking ice for ten years, it is difficult to cool the blood.

I don't know the way in the dark.

A look up.

The silhouette of the towering city is already in front of you.

A cavalry charged.

The roaring sound of horses' hooves instantly overwhelmed the overwhelming sound of rain.

Vaguely.

The familiar battle cry once again sounded in this land.

"I am Ji Ba, the Northern Barbarian Er dares to fight!"

"Kill......"

......

Dum oil lamps.

Illuminates the humble camp.

Zhang Chu, who was neatly dressed, sat in the hall, closed his eyes with a calm face.

However, the purple dragon knife that kept trembling across the desk revealed his mood at the moment, which was far less calm than on his face.

"Report!"

As if the scout had been fished out of the water, he shouted and rushed into the camp quickly, waving his hands and saying loudly: "General Ji has led the army into the base camp of the Northern Barbarian thieves!"

Zhang Chu didn't open his eyes, just whispered lightly: "Explore again!"

"Whoa!"

The scout turned and rushed out of the camp with his sword.

The base camp of the North Barbarians of Yanquan County is not in the county capital of Yanquan County.

It is in Guanshan County, more than 30 miles north of Dabao County.

After all, the Northern Barbarians still occupy the initiative in the war, and what they need is to be able to attack flexibly and attack the strategic points of the defense line in the northern frontier, rather than the high cities and deep pools that are conducive to holding on.

At a distance of more than thirty miles, the speed of a high-grade war horse can run a round trip in three quarters of an hour.

Wait for departure.

Silence returned to the camp.

But Zhang Chu suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the hall.

Then he saw a figure with a thick figure and a simple face, who entered the camp at some point, and knelt down on one knee at the foot of the hall.

"Your Majesty, two hours ago, Suqin County was now a northern barbarian soldier and horse, and the number is incalculable. ”

The person who came said calmly in a tone without any emotion.

With his voice, a map of Wuding County instantly appeared in Zhang Chu's mind, and he quickly located the location of Suqin County.

Immediately frowned.

"Is the source reliable?"

Zhang Chu asked hurriedly.

"Reliable!"

The people in the hall were still quiet and didn't talk much.

But Zhang Chu knows that the "reliable" in his mouth actually means "true".

Because he is the heavenly wind.

There is no one of the best agents in Fengyun Tower!

The fact that he would suddenly appear here without being summoned already represents the accuracy and importance of this news!

The reason why he is so taciturn and cautious in his words and deeds is only because he abides by the principle of Fengyun Building's "secret agents must not affect the decision of the landlord"!

Zhang Chu stood up and paced back and forth in the hall with a frown.

How did the Northern Barbarian Soldiers and Horses appear in Suqin County?

It doesn't make sense!

Suqin County is northwest of Wuding County.

The Beiban army in Wuding County, after the previous battle with the entire defense line of Dali Beijiang, all returned to the Beiban base camp in Yanqi County.

Now if the Northern Barbarian army wants to enter Wuding County, it can only go through Dabao County......

No!

Wrong!

It's just that to enter Wuding County from Yanqi County, you must pass through Dabao County.

If you enter Wuding County with Zhuma County and Zhige County, you don't need to go to Dabao County.

Zhuma County and Zhige County are still in the hands of the Northern Barbarians.

In the past, when the Northern Barbarians invaded, the four northern counties that fell into the hands of the Northern Barbarians have only taken back one county of Wuding so far.

And west of Wuding County.

It's Zhigo County.

Among the eight counties in Wuding, only Shaoli County and Suqin County are bordering Zhige County.

Shaoli County is located in the west of Wuding County, there is an official gallop road leading from Wuding County to Zhige County, and a civilian horse road.

Before the Northern Barbarians entered the customs, Wuding County went to Zhige County, and Zhige County went to Wuding County, all of which went to Shaoli County.

Suqin County is located in the northwest of Wuding County, although it also borders Zhige County, but there are many steep mountains and dangerous peaks in the county, and it is impossible to open up a horse road to Zhige County.

However, Zhang Chu knew that there were some sheep intestine roads opened up by mountain people in Suqin County that could lead to Zhige County.

At present, Shaoli County is an important link on the left flank of the northern Xinjiang defense line, with 30,000 soldiers and horses.

If the Northern Barbarians go to Shaoli County, they will not be able to hide Ran Lin's eyes at all, and then it will be another battle with heavy casualties, and it will be meaningless to enter Wuding County with all the hard work!

Suqin County, on the other hand, is geographically remote and does not have much strategic significance.

According to Zhang Chu's understanding, in such a county seat, Ran Lin seems to have only symbolically sent a thousand soldiers and horses to show that he had recovered the lost territory.

With this bit of soldiers and horses, the Northern Barbarians only need to send a Qi Sea master and lead hundreds of elite soldiers to block all the Dali soldiers in the city and slaughter them all!

Think about it here.

Zhang Chu turned around and walked back to the hall quickly, took down the map of Wuding County hanging in the hall, spread it on the desk, and took the oil lamp to illuminate it and watch it carefully.

After observing for a while, Zhang Chu suddenly made another creepy discovery!

Suqin County is flattened on the map, bordering Shaoli County and Tianling County on the left flank of the Northern Xinjiang Defense Line, and the distance from AllHeavens is also very close.

Coincidental weather.

Spooky location.

The abrupt army of the Northern Barbarians.

An inexplicable sense of familiarity, a burst of strength is stronger than a while.

Zhang Chu suddenly smashed his fist on the desk, and said in a lost voice: "Fuck, I hit the bridge!"

No wonder it's so calm.

Dali army is honest.

The Northern Barbarian army is also honest.

It turns out that the coaches of both sides are holding back their energy to make a big news!

Coincidentally, both managers still wanted to go together.

What's more coincidental is that they even chose to do it on the same night!

How.

Did they all get inspiration from him Zhang Chu?

"It's a lot of fun!"

Zhang Chu cleared his mind, and his vest suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

The Northern Barbarian Army suddenly appeared in Suqin County, and the Northern Xinjiang defense line has not made any moves so far, obviously hiding from Ran Lin's ears and eyes.

Come to think of it, now Ran Lin's eyes are only afraid to stare closely at this robbery, how can he still have extra attention to pay attention to the poor mountains and bad waters in Suqin County?

Of course, if Zhang Chu hadn't had Fengyunlou, an intelligence system independent of the Dali army scouts, he wouldn't have noticed Suqin County.

At present, Wang Zhenyi, the defender of Tianling County, should be in Jintianfu, ready to support Dabao County for the advance of the army, and defeat the Northern Barbarian army in a battle.

In this kind of ghost weather, the defenders of Tianling County, who have no main general, can they find the Northern Barbarian army crossing the border?

There is one more point, which is more deadly.

Most of the elite soldiers with the strongest combat effectiveness in the Jintian Mansion were concentrated under Zhang Chu and Ji Ba.

If the Northern Barbarian army is allowed to seize the opportunity and enter Jintianfu, the consequences will be unimaginable!

Pressing matter.

Let's find out how many northern barbarian soldiers and horses there are in Suqin County!

If it is also comparable to Ji Ba's army, there are only thirty or forty thousand people.

Then, as long as Zhang Chu can stay in Dabao County and block the Beiban army in the Beiban base camp in Yanqi County.

Even if the northern barbarian soldiers and horses in Suqin County seized this opportunity and killed Jintianfu fiercely.

In the end, at best, both sides lost, and everyone continued to confront each other.

But if the northern barbarian soldiers and horses in Suqin County exceeded 100,000 and took advantage of the rain to attack Jintianfu......

The Northern Frontier Defense Line is over!

Zhang Chu and Ji Ba, the two teams, are also over!

The barbarians in the north like stud when they seize the opportunity, do not leave reserves, and are not afraid of fighting on all fronts......

Zhang Chu suspects that it is very likely to be the latter!

"Use the fastest news channel in your hands to warn the Jintian Mansion and tell them that there is a Northern Barbarian army in Suqin County, beware of the robbery camp!"

Zhang Chu said hurriedly: "Send another team of men and horses out, try to find out the number of northern barbarian soldiers and horses in Suqin County as much as possible, and repay me!"

"Whoa!"

Tianfeng listened to Zhang Chu's anxious tone, didn't dare to hesitate, jumped up and turned around and rushed out.

"Someone!"

As soon as Tianfeng went out, Zhang Chu opened his mouth and shouted.

The sergeant on duty outside the camp entered and waved his hands and saluted: "General." ”

"Pass my order, send three hundred scouts into the Beiban base camp, and report the battle situation in the Beiban base camp to me!"

"Whoa!"

The armor soldier bowed and withdrew from the camp.

Zhang Chu believes in the wind of heaven.

However, it is a matter of life and death for the two or three hundred thousand soldiers on the northern Xinjiang defense line, Zhang Chu cannot afford to be wrong, and he must verify whether the news is accurate.

The battle situation in the Northern Barbarian base camp.

It is the fastest way for Zhang Chu to think of to verify whether the Tianfeng news is accurate.

Zhang Chu was anxious and wandered in the camp again.

At the moment, he has three options.

First, according to the original plan, I didn't care about anything, and I was here to pick up Ji Ba's troops and horses to retreat, in case the northern defense line collapsed, make a detour to Taiping Pass, and drag the family and the mouth to move south.

Second, leave Ji Ba behind, immediately lead the army back to defense, and before the northern barbarian soldiers and horses in Suqin County capture Jintianfu, and the defenders in Jintianfu will have a front and back attack, and strive to ensure that the northern defense line is not lost.

Third, make the worst plan, immediately lead the army north, and together with Ji Ba, first set foot in the Beiban Dabei Camp of Yanqi County, and then unite Ji Ba's troops and horses, and the defenders in Dabao County, turn back to meet the Northern Barbarians!

But the premise of making a choice is the number of northern barbarian soldiers and horses in Suqin County.

If the Northern Barbarian soldiers and horses in Suqin County are only twenty or thirty thousand people, they can't even enter the gate of Jintianfu.

Or, the purpose of the Northern Barbarians was not Jintianfu as speculated by Zhang Chu at all, but just wanted to take advantage of the rain to take advantage of the rain to take advantage of the direction of Northern Xinjiang.

That Zhang Chu led the army back to defense, it was meaningless.

will also trap Ji Ba's troops and horses to death.

If the Northern Barbarian army in Suqin County exceeded 100,000, it was even 150,000 or 170,000.

In the base camp of the Beiban in Yanqi County, only 30,000, 50,000 or 60,000 Beiban soldiers and horses remained......

That Zhang Chu did not lead the army back to the defense, and missed the front and rear of the defenders in Jintianfu to flank the northern barbarian soldiers and horses, which led to the collapse of the northern defense line.

The result will be catastrophic.

I'm afraid that for the rest of my life, I will also live in this rainy night.

Zhang Chu kept pacing.

It has been more than six years since the Great Departure.

He had never hated the backward ways of communication in this world more than he did now.

If there is a phone call.

Now call Ran Lin and tell him that the Northern Barbarians are coming, and quickly deploy the camp.

Call Ji Ba again and ask him, Lao Tie, how many Northern Barbarians do you have there?

Everything is solved!

It's a pity that there are no ifs.

The fastest communication method in Tianfeng's hands was a few eagle falcons that Fengyunlou had spent a lot of effort to train.

The speed is much higher than that of the carrier pigeons.

If it is normal weather, you can fly to AllBright in half an hour.

But this kind of ghost weather ......

Whether the falcon will be killed by lightning in the middle of the road, or find a large tree to shelter from the rain, is unknown.

Whether or not the Northern Barbarian soldiers and horses in Suqin County can reach Jintian Mansion and deliver the news to Ran Lin is all up to Heaven's will.

Zhang Chu can do it.

Only waiting.

Between two fires......

PS: The road ahead is confused and bleak, and it is likely that there will be no next one, Fengyun cheekily asks everyone, accompany Zhang Chu, and finish the rest of the road.

Thanks!
