The people of Qingzhou had already reached some kind of cooperation with the Chu army, but now at this critical moment, the Chu army, which had been stationed outside the pass, suddenly sent troops, which made Gu Yehua realize that something was wrong.

In order to resist the prince, 100,000 soldiers stationed in Yanxia Pass poured out, if at this time Qingzhou Fan army invaded Yanxia Pass, how should Yanxia Pass resist?

"How many defenders are there in Yanxia Pass now?"

Gu Yehua hurriedly asked.

"Less than five thousand!"

Qian Bailin replied truthfully.

"Good! Gather these defenders now and prepare for battle! ”

Gu Yehua said with a solemn face, but after he finished speaking, Qian Bailin didn't make any moves, which made Gu Yehua frown.

But it's not Qian Bailin's fault.

Although Gu Yehua is the son of General Zhenyuan, this place is Qingzhou after all, and it is Yanxia Pass. Yanxia Pass is the place guarded by Wei Guogong, Gu Yehua suddenly came here, and now he has directly issued orders to them, and Qian Bailin doesn't know whether he should obey Gu Yehua's orders.

"You'd better do what General Ben orders, General Ben didn't come here for no reason. This time I came to Qingzhou, this general was ordered by His Majesty to investigate the change in Qingzhou, this general has received the news, Qingzhou Governor Liu Changqing, and many county guards, have reached a cooperation with the Chu army, they are likely to invade Yanxia Pass in the next time, so you must take precautions! ”

Gu Yehua's tone was extremely solemn.

Who knew that after hearing Gu Yehua's words, Qian Bailin suddenly laughed, and then in Gu Yehua's puzzled eyes, he only heard Qian Bailin explain: "Major General, the last general doesn't know where the news came from, it actually said that Lord Liu Zhou and the county guards have the intention of rebelling, maybe the Major General doesn't know it, this time he followed the general to the front line to defend against the enemy, and Lord Liu Zhou was also among them." ”

"Moreover, the invasion of the Chu State was also reported by the Lord of Liuzhou, and you said that they would rebel, I am afraid that this news is wrong."

When Gu Yehua heard this, his brows furrowed slightly.

"Don't you know that the thief shouts to catch the thief?"

"Hurry up and do what General Ben says, don't worry, if your general is to blame at that time, General Ben will bear all the consequences!"

Although he was not sure whether Chu Mo and the others' analysis was correct, but now was a critical moment, and he could not tolerate the slightest sloppiness, and he also understood the reason that he could believe, so he immediately made a direct commitment to Qian Bailin, so that he would not have any worries.

"Yes!"

When Qian Bailin heard this, he could only nod and agree, and then gathered all the soldiers of Yanxia Pass.

Looking at the soldiers gathered under the city wall at this moment, there were really less than five thousand people, which made Gu Yehua a little speechless.

After all, this is a home battle, even if the Chu army of 100,000 troops presses the border, Wei Xinyang can completely rely on the terrain advantage of the border pass to stop the enemy army, so why bother to send all the soldiers guarding Yanxia Pass?

"There are less than five thousand people, if Wan Sanqian and others really want to launch a surprise attack on Yanxia Pass, I'm afraid this number of people will not be enough to resist them at all."

Gu Yehua said helplessly.

"Major General, why don't you let the last general go to the front line, explain this matter to General Wei, and then transfer a little troops back to defense?"

Qian Bailin said at this moment.

"Good! Then this matter will be hard for you. ”

Gu Yehua did not refuse, Qian Bailin nodded, and after a while, he left Yanxia Pass on a fast horse and went to the front line.

At the same time, the front-line camp.

Wei Xinyang, who was wearing a white armor, was discussing the war with many generals in the tent at the moment.

At this moment, in addition to Wei Xinyang and other generals in the camp, Liu Changqing and others are also impressively listed.

"Report! General Qiyu, the 100,000 Chu army is menacing, and now it is less than ten kilometers away from our army's position, please instruct the general! ”

A scout soldier in charge of surveying the enemy's movements hurriedly entered the camp and told Wei Xinyang everything he had surveyed.

At this moment, Wei Xinyang was frowning and staring at the map in front of him.

The Chu army is known as the lion of the land, and the 100,000 army is approaching, if they take the initiative to face the battle, the chance of victory will definitely not exceed fifty percent.

This made Wei Xinyang feel a sense of powerlessness.

"We can't let them approach anymore, if we let the Chu army step through the first line of heaven and enter the territory of my Dawu Dynasty, we will inevitably fall into passivity at that time!"

A general spoke at this moment.

In the past two days, although they did not launch a large-scale battle with the Chu army, there were no less than five or six small fights, but each time, they ended in defeat and retreat.

At this moment, the place they are defending is already the last line of defense, if they can't defeat the Chu army, once the Chu army captures this place, I'm afraid it won't be long before the enemy army will come to the city of Yanxia Pass.

"General, now our only chance can only be placed on the silver lining. The first-line heaven and earth are steep, surrounded by mountains, easy to defend and difficult to attack. If our army can defend the first line of the sky, there may be a chance to stop the enemy's footsteps! ”

Wei Xinyang's lieutenant put forward his own proposal at this moment.

"A line of heaven is indeed a good place to fight, but blindly defending, this is not a long-term solution."

At this moment, Liu Changqing suddenly spoke.

"Lord Liu, don't be impatient, Ben Jiang hasn't finished his words yet. Nowadays, the enemy and us are evenly matched, and even if the Chu army has the title of land lion, it is not a simple matter for them to step on the one-day line. ”

"And when our army occupies the advantage of terrain, after choosing to transfer 30,000 troops from the army to surround it, it will directly attack the Chu army in front and rear, and it will definitely be able to give the Chu army a head-on blow!"

The lieutenant general spoke out his plan.

After hearing this plan, many generals of the army, including Wei Xinyang, couldn't help but nod in agreement, thinking that this plan was feasible.

But they didn't notice that at this moment, Liu Changqing and the rest of the Qingzhou county guards had a slightly unnatural expression.

If this plan really works, once the Chu army is defeated, this will also be a fatal blow to their plan!

They must not watch such a thing happen, and this news must be spread as soon as possible!

"General, although Adjutant General Pang's plan seems feasible, this officer thinks that this move is a bit risky. If we act according to the plan, our army will inevitably be divided into two routes, which is undoubtedly not weakening the strength of our army, and once this move fails, Yanxia Pass will be in danger. ”

Liu Changqing said out loud at this moment.

When everyone heard this, they lowered their heads and pondered, Pang Lin's method was indeed good, but what Liu Changqing said did have some truth.

Seeing the expressions of the generals at this moment, Liu Changqing and several county guards looked at each other and smiled. And just when Liu Changqing was about to strike while the iron was hot, at this time, a soldier's report suddenly came from outside the camp tent.
