With the help of Tian Feng, Zhao Xing successfully abducted Chen Gong and Dian Wei, hurriedly went on the road, and went straight to Guandu. (Li Jinsi, who was the first to rush back to the party, had already sent a secret letter from Zhao Xing to Jia Xu five days ago.) After Jia Xu read the secret letter at that time, after thinking about it for a while, he sent someone to the barracks to summon Guan Yu and Xu Huang, and returned to Crouching Tiger Village together.

Because when Zhao Xing left Jiguan in May, he was attacked by officers and soldiers pretending to be road bandits, and after the news was transmitted back to Crouching Tiger Village, it attracted great attention from everyone. Later, Guan Yu personally sent Xu Huang to escort the wine team to Luoyang, which was sent to the Yellow River at that time. Therefore, Zhao Yun, who was busy suppressing bandits, had arrived in Leping, and could see the Great Wall wall with his eyes that he returned to Qingfengling with his men and horses, not only to rest and clean up the people, but also to serve as a fast mobile force, ready to respond to Zhao Xing, who had returned to the party.

In Crouching Tiger Village, in the conference hall, except for the owner Zhao Xing and Li Jinsi, the rest of the military generals appeared in the hall. Jia Xu relayed the content of Zhao Xing's secret letter to everyone, and then stopped talking, asking everyone to think for a while.

"This time the third brother went to Luoyang, his reputation was magnificent, and he gained a lot, so that it aroused the vigilance of some big lords m-n, y-take advantage of the third brother's weakness to cut off, this wind must not be fueled, and it must be hit head-on, otherwise the Zhang family will murder today, and the Yuan family will calculate tomorrow, and it will be difficult to have a peaceful day!" Guan Yu said in a deep voice.

"What Brother Guan said is very much in line with my wishes, Huang is willing to lead the people of the headquarters to meet the third brother, if Yuan Yi, the county guard of Hanoi, dares to come, he will bring his head to see you!"

"The two generals Guan and Xu, this time the two of you will go together, just attack the defenders of Jiguan head-on, and attract the attention of the defenders in the pass, after all, our current identity is a county soldier, once the matter of the matter with Yuan Yi is spread to the court, it will give people a handle. Jia Xu calmly analyzed.

As soon as Zhang Liao heard that Guan Yu and Xu Huang could not go out of the Jiguan to fight, he immediately became happy, and stood up and said loudly: "Eldest brother, second brother, fourth brother, this time I went to take over the third brother's action, and I will give it to Wen Yuan! After half a year of training and running-in, the combat effectiveness of the 2,000 Zhuang soldiers in our department is not much better than that of the county soldiers. In addition, the Zhuang soldiers could completely act separately, disguised as merchants and travelers from the south to the north, and ho;n entered Hanoi. ”

Jia Xu listened to Zhang Liao's analysis, couldn't help but nodded, and said approvingly: "Wenyuan's plan can be successful, this time you should take the lead!" After saying this, Jia Xu had a cold face, 1-out of yīn ruthless s-, and said to Zhao Yun: "Zilong, although it has not been stated in Guochang's letter, but it is specially reminded that if you can easily kill Yuan Yi and seize Jiguan, then in the future, Shangdang will go east to control the Huguan fortress, and go south to grasp the danger of Jiguan, which is enough to ensure temporary stability!

Zhao Yun, who had been calm and indifferent to S-, stood up, saluted Jia Xu, and said: "If you dare to offend Crouching Tiger Village, Yun will let him go to the sky without a ladder and enter the ground without m-n!"

This is said ruthlessly, there is a kind of taste that as long as you dare to come, you will kill as many Lao Tzu as you want! Especially with Zhao Yun's calm and handsome face, no matter how you look at it, it makes people's blood boil and their confidence is greatly increased.

"Zilong, you immediately select dozens of soldiers who are skilled in archery, join forces with Zhang Liao, disguise themselves as homeless ho;n out of Jiguan, and specialize in hunting and killing Yuan Yi!"

"Wen Yuan, you immediately lead a thousand Zhuang soldiers to act separately, and all of them will be out of the customs within five days. After exiting the customs, assemble in Heyang and meet the team returning north at any time!"

"Changsheng, Gongming, before the two of you lead two thousand county soldiers to Jiguan, after Zilong and Wenyuan get out of the pass, look for an opportunity to clash with the soldiers guarding the pass, attract the attention of the officers and soldiers, once the pass is successful, the inside and outside will be used at the same time, clear the pass M-N, and welcome everyone returning to the north to return to the party!"

As Jia Xu gave orders one by one, all the brothers got up one after another to receive the order. What kind of astonishing performance will Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao have in this battle?

It is said that after Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun received the order, they immediately took action, Jīng carefully selected his men and horses, and rode horses to the first twenty miles of Keiguan, only then did they dismount one after another, change their clothes, and let some of the soldiers of the Flying Tiger Battalion who accompanied them, under the leadership of Hu Che'er, gather their horses and return to Qingfengling. Why dismount in front of the pass and switch to foot combat?

This has to start with the operational characteristics of the Crouching Tiger Battalion. At the beginning, Zhao Xingcao created the second battalion of "Flying Tiger" and "Crouching Tiger", but there were only a few hundred people. Now it has grown to more than 4,000 people, and the two battalions each have 2,000 soldiers and horses.

As the name suggests, the "Flying Tiger Battalion" is certainly second to none in terms of mobile combat capability, but the equipment and horses of the cavalry are very rare, and 2,000 people are already the limit that Crouching Tiger Village can bear now. During the Three Kingdoms era, Lao Cao's first Jīng Rui troops rode tigers and leopards, and the largest number was only 20,000. That's the power of a country, and the resources of nearly ten states have been created.

As the name suggests, the "Crouching Tiger Battalion" is a full-time defensive combat unit, the Qingyi S-Bu Army, which is composed of three arms: "sword and axe soldiers, spearmen and big shield soldiers", and is matched into a group of twelve people according to a certain proportion. So, which fierce man came up with the Mandarin Duck Formation? The answer is: Qi Jiguang, a famous anti-Japanese general!

If Zhao Yun leads his thousands of people and wants to pass the level alone, it is simply impossible. Even ordinary people can see that this kind of formation must be a team of soldiers and horses, not merchants and homeless people. The foot soldiers led by Zhang Liao are different, they usually train according to twelve people together, it is easy to break up, and it is easy to gather after leaving the customs, especially it will not attract the attention of the soldiers guarding the pass.

For the sake of prudence, Zhang Liao divided the 1,200 people into three batches and spent three days passing the customs from morning to #25o night. These soldiers were either disguised as guards for the accompanying caravan, or disguised as warriors visiting relatives and friends, and even more daringly, they even dared to come to the gate to pretend to confess their relatives. From the second tiger to the third tooth to the fourth dog, the guards on the gate were greeted by him one by one, and then wiped his tears and said that he couldn't find his relatives, and he passed the customs to continue the search.

And so on and so forth. Zhang Liao and Zhao Yun also passed the test easily. Although Zhao Yun and Zhang Liao are obviously good horses under their crotches, the soldiers guarding the pass are not stupid, they gave them a large piece of silver cake, and they are obviously the children of the official eunuchs.

A vicious battle that was about to alarm the government and the opposition opened the curtain at the moment when the two heroic teenagers who were talking and laughing walked out of the foothills of Taihang Mountain. This year, Zhao Yun was sixteen years old and Zhang Liao was fifteen years old!
