Chuanyun Pass, because of the geographical location, Dawei has always attached great importance to it.

It's just that this time, no one expected that the Rouran army that broke through the Hexi defense line would be able to go all the way south at such a fast speed. They arrived almost suddenly, so that the defenders of Chuanyun Pass were caught off guard even if they were prepared.

Outside Chuanyun Pass, the chaotic war has not stopped for long, and there are still corpses that have not been disposed of everywhere inside and outside the pass.

On the wall of Chuanyunguan, Tang Mu's fluttering robe was already soaked with sweat, she looked around, in the farthest place of sight, although there was no one in sight now, Tang Mu knew that it would not be long before the pursuers of the Great Wei Land would arrive again.

However, although it has been bumpy all the way since the south, Rouran has gained a lot, and in the battle of Chuanyun Pass alone, Rouran has slashed 5,000.

Not far from Tang Mu, it was Yuan Zhen, who was also wearing a military robe.

Yuan Zhi looked in the opposite direction to Tang Mu, and Yan Lanzhou was also beside Yuan Zhen.

Tang Mu glanced at the direction where Yuan Zhi was, she still had the same opinion, she didn't look down on Yuan Zhen but favored Yan Lanzhou a lot.

Tang Mu and Yuan Zhi separated from Baturu after the army left Jiuquan, and the Rouran cavalry swept almost all the way without the pass to block them, and with Yuan Zhi and other Great Wei people, they had an advantage in the choice of route.

Chuanyun is still a little unfamiliar to Tang Mu, but for Yuan Zhen, this is the place he has always been thinking about.

After the Chuanyun Pass, it is Tongguan, although they can't take Tongguan yet, but they can go to a lot of places. Moreover, the cavalry marched fast, and they were not afraid of being surrounded by the Wei army's brigade.

Yuan Zhi silently stared at the south, as if he was so far away that the farthest point of sight was Luoyang, where he had left.

After a while, Yuan Zhen spoke, "Lan Zhou, do you think we can really return to Luoyang one day?"

After Yuan Zhi finished speaking, Yan Lanzhou did not answer, because Yan Lanzhou understood that Yuan Zhi only wanted to hear that one answer, but now he is different from the original highness who endured humiliation.

Yan Lanzhou still didn't answer in the end, and Yuan Zhen didn't care, he was sure that it was enough.

On Tang Mu's side, the generals and the people who hid the knife behind him were all there.

After chasing and attacking all the way, Tang Mu's team has been sharply reduced from 15,000 to 10,000.

They couldn't hold on to the Cloud Pass, and they couldn't stay here for long, so the next thing they had to think about was where to go.

A masked man behind Tang Mu spoke, "Your Highness, the minister thinks that we can go north next to join the group of men and horses who have entered Pingcheng. When the time comes, we will not be afraid of a large-scale pursuit by the Wei army."

Things can be expected in this direction, but unfortunately, because Tang Mu and they have lost contact with the other two roads, Tang Mu does not know the progress of the people who are entering Pingcheng, if they are discovered, it will be tantamount to a sheep falling into the mouth of a tiger."

Therefore, Tang Mu hesitated.

Seeing this, the man said, "If Your Highness feels that it is not safe to go north, we can directly enter the depths of the Qinling Mountains to fight guerrillas with the Wei army. Now that the royal court has done its best to send a large army south again, we only need to wait for reinforcements to arrive before we can collide with the Wei army head-on, and then we will have a showdown in front of Tongguan."

After a moment, Tang Mu opened his mouth and asked, "What is the situation on the other side of the Heaven Prison Division and the Earth Net?"

Speaking of the Heavenly Supervisor and the Earth Net, the man seemed to remember something, and he immediately said, "Back to Your Highness, we only fought with the Heavenly Supervisor two days ago, and the person who made the Heavenly Supervisor was Cardinal Archbishop Fu Nianzhi. According to the way the Heavenly Supervisor acts, they must be coming to Chuanyun Pass, and we don't have much time left."

Because Tang Mu has recently focused most of his attention on the army, the Tibetan Dao people are basically scattered, and they have now become scouts in case the main force encounters the Wei army.

After the man finished speaking, Tang Mu fell into deep thought.

Neither approach is safe, and what they lack today is information.

Because of the dispersion, the Baturu division has limited ability to block the Wei army, so it will definitely not take long for the Wei army in the rear to reach Chuanyun Pass in three days at most. whereas

On the other hand, Luoyang must also have a countermeasure.

"You can go southwest." Tang Mudao.

After Tang Mu finished speaking, his subordinates were about to speak, but Yuan Zhen, who came at some point, suddenly said, "When the time goes south, it will definitely collide with the Great Wei support forces."

Tang Mu didn't refute when he heard this, but asked rhetorically, "If Your Highness is in Luoyang, what will you do if you know the news?"

After asking a question, Tang Mu paused for a moment, and without waiting for Yuan Zhi to answer, Tang Mu continued: "Yuan Ke, the defender of Tongguan, must not dare to separate casually, because he is not sure of our numbers, once the garrison of Tongguan is weak, it is very likely that we will solve Tongguan as quickly as we solve Chuanyun Pass. As far as I know, the Great Wei in the southwest has formed an army to fight the autumn in order to prevent Miao Jiang, so they must think that the southwest is properly defended, and we dare not go to the southwest, so we are most likely to go north. The more he speculates, the more I have to do the opposite, and as long as the timing is right, we will never collide with the Wei army."

After speaking, Tang Mu looked at the hesitant Yuan Zhen and said, "We are now deep in the hinterland of Great Wei, and every step we take is an adventure, Your Highness should not think of a safe way anymore."

Hearing this, Yuan Zhi looked at Tang Mu, who had a resolute look in his eyes, and replied, "In this case, then listen to Her Royal Highness the Princess, now we are companions in the same boat, and we can't be separated."

If it had been placed before, Yuan Zhen would never have expressed his views so directly. But now it's different, with the weakness of Tang Mu and others, the right to speak on his side is becoming more and more important.

After making this decision, the two sides set a time to leave. After taking everything they could bring with them in Chuanyun Pass, they would leave tonight at most.

Tang Mu and Yuan Zhi both knew that their decision was to dance on the tip of the knife.

After leaving Jiuquan City, the Rouran army divided into three routes, and the rear of the Baturu army shared the firepower of the other two roads, so they suffered the greatest casualties.

In order to divert the attention of the Wei army, Baturu deliberately led his men and horses in different directions, which forced Yuwentai to divide his troops to pursue, but they still did not ignore the 10,000 people who entered Pingcheng.

Baturu knew that it was impossible for his pair to be safe, so he told his subordinates that this was a road of death and life.

The rupture of the Hexi defense line announced that the Great Wei had completely gained the upper hand in this battle with Rouran, and with the raging of the Rouran army in the northwest, the entire northwest land was already in a state of misery.

No one would have thought that Dawei would lose, and he would lose so completely, and Yuan Ke, who was in Luoyang, was also on pins and needles.

Southern Liang, the group of people who went north from the Southern Sect finally met outside Jinling City, and Zhu Tan and Li Chengren, who arrived a little later, took these people straight north.

The new emperor Xiao Xiang did not send Jinyilang to interfere after knowing about this, and even took the initiative to send Yuan Zhenhuan to connect with Li Chengren and Zhu Tan.

Zhu Tan and Li Chengren delayed for a trip to Langyu County, with the help of the old cook, coupled with the joint efforts of Han Zhongjing and Yun Qingyou, it was easy to rescue Shi Yu and Xiang'er.

The old cook came to the cat, so the five of them worked together to capture the cat and handed over the right to dispose of it to the old cook.

The five top masters of the Grandmaster Realm, the Langyu Wang Clan, the Qinghe Cui Clan, and the Qizhou Gao Clan, even if the three families joined forces, they couldn't find anyone who could deal with it.

At the same time, the two families also paid the price for their recklessness.

Almost after rescuing Shi Yu and Xiang'er, Han Zhongjing and Yun Qingyou no longer kept, and killed Cui Minglang and Gao Yan, still in front of everyone.

Han Zhongjing and Yun Qingyou did not kill the two major families, but after the two of them made a move, Jin Yilang, who had already been secretly ambushed, shot again, pulling out the possible hidden dangers of the two families one by one, and the masters of the Grandmaster Realm were all escorted back to Jinling.

After the old cook had settled the matter, he returned to Gusu with the seriously injured, weak, and dying cat.

reunited with Han Zhongjing again, and the two brothers had endless words, but now Han Zhongjing and Zhu Tan came together very consciously, and the two were so unhappy when they drank and talked about the mountains.

On the other side, in the face of Yun Qingyu, Li Chengren could not speak even if he had thousands of words in his heart.

"I know that the situation is now in Luoyang, and the situation of Great Wei is critical now, I need to hurry up and go north, and we will talk about the rest later."

The first sentence after the reunion is like this, and no one will be in a good mood when they hear it.

Hearing this, Yun Qingyou looked at Li Chengren with red eyes, as if he couldn't say anything about all the grievances in his heart.

I don't know how long it took before Yun Qingyou said, "Don't I know that your matter is urgent? Is it so hard to say something gentle?"

After Yun Qingyou finished speaking, Zhu Tan and Han Zhongjing, who were walking in front, couldn't help but glance back, but what they saw was Yun Qingyou's eyes that wanted to kill.

Li Chengren was also helpless when he heard this, although he didn't have those meanings in his words, but the result was still not good.

Li Chengren explained: "I see that you are also a little dull, and I don't know what to say."

"Am I that terrible?" Yun Qingyu asked.

Hearing this, Li Chengren hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, no, I won't say it myself."

"I know you're worried about that kid Shen, but I'm also worried about Qiao'er, I want you to go north, is it difficult to say that it's hard to take me with you? It was the same then, and you are still the same today."

The world sighs that some things will not change no matter how long it has passed, but can only be changed whether they are acceptable or unacceptable.

Yun Qingyou can accept it, but the resentment in his heart is finally vented out.

It's gone, it's time to go.

Yuan Daguang went straight north to the Northern Wei Dynasty shortly after leaving Gusu, and he was not with the large army, so his speed was much faster.

About three days after Shen Kuang and Dugu Nanqiao arrived in Luoyang, Yuan Daguang also arrived.

At that time, the city was boiling and there were already rumors of Rouran's southward departure, and Rouran's arrival at Chuanyun Pass was blocked by the imperial court with severe measures, but after all, there was no unventilated wall, and some news still came out.

In fact, the whole court is now thinking about coping strategies, and Yuwentai's defenders on the northern front are now completely passive.

The scattered Rouran troops plundered all parts of the northwest of the Great Wei, and it was difficult for the prefectures and counties to organize an effective defense force, because they came and went too quickly.

Soon after, Song Wan and others, who had originally stayed on the Eastern Front, were recalled, and some of Dugu Chong's men on the Eastern Front were also called back to Luoyang.

The mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of buildings, and a bigger curtain is being opened, but no one knows if the night will also end.
