The relics of the righteous canal, within the main account.

After reading Chang Yu's letter, the old patriarch Yu Tu was furious.

"Bastard!" Yu Tu said angrily, "Why did the letter sent ten days ago only come here today?" ”

The messenger who delivered the letter trembled, and hurriedly bowed his knees and said: "King Huiyiqu, in this spring season, the ice and snow are blended, and the road is really muddy, and I have also used all my strength to send the letter here. ”

Yu Tu was not unreasonable, he knew that the messenger was telling the truth, and the horses really couldn't run when the roads were muddy.

After suppressing the anger in his heart, Yu Tu said: "That's it, you went to receive the reward, go back." ”

"King Xie Yiqu." The messenger thanked him and withdrew.

Yu Tu said to the left and right, "Go and call Thorin and Qiang." ”

One of the clansmen on the side answered and walked out of the tent.

Suorin is the eldest grandson of Yu Tu and the young patriarch of the Yiqu relics, and his father is the eldest son of Yu Tu, but he has passed away due to a vicious illness.

Qiang is the young patriarch of the Qiang people, and he is very prestigious among the Qiang people, and he is both wise and brave. This time, he was also ordered by his father to lead troops to help Yiqu.

A short time later, Thorin entered the door with Qiang.

Yu Tu didn't say a word, and handed the letter sent by Chang Yu to Sorin: "Take a look." ”

Thorin guessed that it was probably a letter from his uncle, so he opened it.

"This, how can this be?" Thorin said in surprise.

Qiang took the letter and read it too.

Yu Tu said with some sadness: "It seems that our plan has to be advanced." ”

Thorin nodded and said, "Actually, according to the original plan, in ten days, we should also set off, but because the road is muddy, we should have set off earlier." ”

"Not bad." After reading the letter, Qiang Yan said, "Originally, the little brothers have also discussed, and they are about to come over to discuss this matter with King Yiqu." ”

"How's the armament?" Yu Tu asked.

"You can go out at any time." Thorin replied.

"Where's the grain and grass?" Yu Tu was scared, and the most uncomfortable thing for him was this problem.

"King Yiqu, rest assured, my father asked me to bring enough food and grass for a year, and no matter how many warriors there are, we can afford to raise them." Qiang said.

"Good!" Yu Tu took the case, "Chang Yu is in danger now, quickly rectify military affairs, and set off immediately." ”

"Yes!" Thorin and Qiang replied in unison.

Immediately, the remnants of Yiqu and other Rongdi tribes who came to help the war gathered 110,000 iron horses, brought grain and grass, and marched to the border of Daqin.

The snow and ice melted, the roads were really muddy, and the warriors of all races on war horses were walking in places with many stones, but the speed was still not fast.

On the way, Yu Tudu kept sending scouts to inquire about the news of Daqin, eager to know Chang Yu's situation.

It was not until the fifth day that the first wave of probes returned to the army.

"What's the situation with Daqin?" Yu Tu asked anxiously.

Tanma arched his hand and said: "Patriarch, on the day of arriving in Yongcheng, King Yingzheng of Qin exposed the conspiracy of the young master, and it is said that the young master's feathers left in Yongcheng have been removed one after another. ”

"Huh?" Yu Tu was shocked, "What about Chang Yu, how is he?" ”

"It is said that the young master bypassed the King of Qin and took Xianyang directly, and there is no news yet." Tanma said.

Yu Tu's heart was beating faster, but the blood didn't seem to be circulating smoothly, and his lips trembled a little and said, "Go and find out again." ”

"Yes!" The probe turned his horse's head and galloped away.

Everything is chaotic, it was originally a plan to cooperate with the outside and the inside, but before it could start, Chang Yu had already started to act, which made Yu Tu's heart feel down-to-earth.

I was worried all the way, and after another day, I was only a hundred miles away from the Longxi border of Daqin.

The second wave of scouts brought back the news.

"Patriarch, King Yingzheng of Qin has cleared the young master's feathers, and the young master has also been

Attacked the palace and bloodied Xianyang, but the Qin army had already taken precautions, both sides were defeated, and the whereabouts of the young lord were unknown. The probe spoke very neatly, as if he had been wondering how to say these words along the way.

"Probe!" Yu Tu's heart tightened a few points, only to feel that his breathing was a little unpleasant, and his head was dizzy.

Yu Tu knew that Chang Yu's plan was to hijack the harem and wait for him to come to his aid after a few days of stalemate with Ying Zheng.

In the anxiety, it was another day of travel, and the Yongding Pass on the border of Longxi was already close at hand.

Yu Tu was just about to give the order to set up camp when the third wave of probes arrived.

"Report!" The probe looked very flustered.

"Tell me!" Yu Tu also couldn't wait to say.

"Patriarch, the young master he ......" Tan Ma said, "He attacked Xianyang Palace at night, encountered an ambush, after the two sides fought, the young master escaped from the city, but was ambushed outside the city, and now the young master has been captured alive, and the remaining remnants of the army have been captured." ”

"What?!"

Yu Tu heard a buzzing of his head, only to feel that the world was spinning and he fell off the horse.

"Patriarch!!"

"Patriarch!!"

Everyone dismounted one after another and picked up the king of Yiqu.

Every day is bad news.

The bad news is getting worse every day.

I miss my son every moment.

Every time I think about the plan to restore the country.

Obviously, it is getting closer and closer to the Qin realm, but the fighter plane seems to be getting farther and farther away from him.

I don't know who pinched someone, Yu Tu slowly opened his bloodshot eyes.

"Grandfather, how are you?" Thorin asked urgently.

Yu Tu only felt that his scalp was numb, the corners of his mouth twitched a little, and he struggled to squeeze out a few words: "No... Thing..., here... Encamped..."

Thorin nodded, turned his head and shouted, "Send the order to go down, set up camp here, and then order the fireman to boil some hot water quickly." ”

The army stopped in place, and Yu Tu was also lying in the military tent, with several animal skins under him, and not far away, there was a small warm stove.

But what is quite worrying is that Yu Tu entered a coma again, occasionally awake for a while, and after a while, he would fall asleep again.

Thorin, who was guarding Yu Tu's side, sighed lightly, turned his head and said to Qiang: "It's not a way to go on like this, it was a large army that came to attack the Qin State, but I didn't want to wait for the war to start, and my grandfather was sick." ”

"Yes, we are short of doctors and medicines here, and King Yiqu's illness is so strange." Qiang looked at Yu Tu and said, "I'm afraid I'll have to find a doctor to diagnose and treat it." ”

Solin thought for a moment and said, "I have a way, we lack medicine here, but Daqin is not." ”

"You mean ......?" Qiang probably guessed what Thorin was thinking.

"Yongding Pass ahead!" Thorin said firmly.

Yongding Pass is a pass on the border of Longxi in Daqin, and it is the only place to pass through on the route traveled by the Yiqu relics to Daqin.

"Hehe, that's a good idea." Qiang Qi said, "But we are still not on a firm footing, and it is a bit hasty to attack rashly." ”

Solin thought for a moment and said: "Historically, when there is no war, the defenders of Daqin's pass are basically 5,000 armor soldiers, although the fortifications of the pass are generally easy to defend and difficult to attack, but this is only 5,000 people, and there is nothing to be afraid of, not to mention, if we suddenly attack at night, we will definitely kill them by surprise." ”

"And among the defenders, there must be a military doctor." Qiang Qi continued, saying.

"Yes, looking at my grandfather's situation, it is indeed impossible to delay." Thorin said.

"Good!" Qiang Qi said quite seriously, "How about handing over the first merit of this battle to Brother Wei?" ”

Thorin hesitated for a moment, then said, "Okay, I'm going to take care of my grandfather, so I won't fight with you." ”

"Hehe, you just wait for the good news for your brother." Qiang chuckled.

"Well, stay safe."

It was getting dark

Come, Qiang Qi brought the 30,000 horses of his headquarters to a short distance from Yongding Pass.

For fear of causing too much noise, the Qiang people did not ride horses, and the army detoured back to the flank of the pass from both sides of the mountain range, and then approached the city defense of the pass little by little.

The 10,000 people on the front waited for a long time, and finally arrived at the appointed hour.

Listening to the order of the Qiang clan, the 10,000 Qiang warriors in front of him suddenly let out an earth-shattering shout of killing and rushed towards the pass of Yongding Pass.

It seems to be huge, but in fact it is just a feint.

The purpose of the Qiang is to attract the enemy's attention with a frontal surprise attack, so that the warriors on the flanks can take the opportunity to climb over the city defenses of the pass and easily attack the pass.

There was a commotion on the tower, and in a short time a rain of arrows came from above.

Strangely enough, most of these arrows were blocked by the shields of the foot soldiers, and posed no threat at all.

Is there a fraud?

Don't be afraid of deception, after all, the advantage in numbers is not a star and a half, and besides, Qiang has already boasted of Haikou in front of Sorin, how can he retreat at will.

The feint tribes advanced all the way to the gate of Yongding Pass, but did not storm it, but approached the mountain wall and the city wall, and then formed a shield wall with their shields to protect everyone.

"The Point Guard Is Here"

The arrows on the castle tower are still shooting vertically, but they are still sparse, and the number has not changed.

At this time, I heard a horn dedicated to the Hu people sounded on both sides of the pass, and then, the sound of rushing and killing was everywhere, and I saw that the warriors of the Qiang tribe launched an attack from both sides of the pass.

The rain of arrows on the castle tower suddenly stopped, as if the defenders on the castle tower had turned to the sides to guard.

The Qiang did not move, and ordered the front tribe to maintain this defensive position.

It didn't take long for the gates of the pass to be opened from the inside.

And the one who opened the door was the tribal warriors who attacked the pass from both sides.

That's it?

It's too fast.

Qiang originally thought that there would be a fierce battle inside the pass, but he didn't expect the gate to open so quickly.

Before he had time to think about it, Qiang led the people quickly through the gate of the pass and joined the tribes inside.

Seeing the scene inside, Qiang was stunned.

This is like a fierce battlefield, but like the soldiers caught a few thieves.

The reason why they are old thieves is because the dozens of Daqin's armor soldiers who were captured were all older, and I saw that they were all kneeling there tremblingly, as if they had already been disarmed.

"Who is the leader here?" Qiang Qi stepped forward and asked in a loud voice.

A sergeant who was older than the others looked up and said, "I'm a centurion here, who are you?" ”

Qiang said with a cold face: "I am the young master of the Qiang tribe, and today I specially took my clan to ask Daqin for some wine and meat. Say, why are there so few defenders here? ”

Qiang's doubts have not been eliminated, and he has always suspected that there is fraud in this.

The centurion snorted coldly and said, "If it weren't for some chaos in the court, the defenders here were temporarily transferred to Yongcheng, do you think you would attack this place so easily?" ”

The mess he said in his mouth, of course Qiang knew what it was.

"So, the defenders here have all gone back to guard Yongcheng, and this Yongding Pass has become an empty city?" Qiang asked.

The centurion, who was still kneeling on the ground, said coldly: "Taking advantage of our unpreparedness to sneak attack Yongding Pass, villain behavior!" ”

From the centurion's eyes, Qiang could tell that he was not lying.

At this time, a warrior of the Qiang tribe ran over and said to the Qiang: "Young Master, I have checked everywhere, and it is true that there are only these old defenders, and no one else has been found. ”

Hearing this, Qiang's last concern was dispelled, he laughed, and said loudly: "Come on, go and inform Suolin, just say that the Qiang people have captured Yongding Pass without much effort!" ”

There are more than ten tribes of Rongdi tribes, who doesn't want such a good opportunity to stand up.
