Between the border between the Zhou State and the northern Xinjiang, there are two Xiong Passes, one of which is the Sanshan Pass, the general Hong Jin, and then the Jiameng Pass, the general Hu Sheng.

At this time, under the Jiameng Pass, Ji Chang brought 300,000 soldiers who returned from the grassland to the city, and the solemn military posture and strong soldiers made Hong Jin tremble.

Now that the northern frontier is in decline, the warriors of the Zhou State can be compared with the most elite Wang Shi of Chaoge, not to mention that the enemy is outnumbered, Hong Jin can't see the hope that his 50,000 people can hold it, and it is only a matter of time before the city is broken and slaughtered.

On the city wall, Hong Jin kept sighing, he didn't understand why Xibohou didn't lead to it, and he kept gathering people and horses to wander under the pass without attacking the city, but just sent people to shout every day, denouncing and scolding Chonghou's barbarism and Chongguo's unreasonableness.

He didn't have time to care about the truth of things, and he didn't have the mood to care about the life and death of Bo Yi Kao, what he cared about was his own life and death.

A short dwarf suddenly emerged from the ground, and after identifying the direction, it trotted all the way to Hong Jin.

"General Tuxing Sun, how is it, what did Hu Sheng say?"

The short man is the deputy general of Sanshanguan Tuxingsun, and it is also quite interesting to say, Hong Jin was originally a disciple of the interception sect, and Tuxingsun was the eldest disciple of the twelve golden immortals who were afraid of leaving the grandson, and I don't know how the two got together and mixed into the position of the main general and deputy general of Sanshanguan.

"That kid Hu Sheng refused to help us and others, saying that we should each do our part and guard the pass."

Hong Jin angrily pointed to the hundreds of thousands of troops outside the pass and asked, "Defend the pass? Would he like to see for himself how many people were there? Can it be kept? Hu Sheng, who is a straight thief, does not concentrate his forces on defense at this time, he hides behind and is comfortable, so that Lao Tzu can be a shield for him? ”

Tuxingsun also scolded angrily, but he didn't know that these two cultivators might not have figured out that attacking and defending the city was actually not the more people the better.

Xibohou of the Zhou army camp under the city also had a gloomy face, Bo Yi Kao did not die, but was seriously injured, and now he was personally escorted by Cheng Bigan, preparing to send this hot potato back to Xiqi.

It's just that this time, in legal theory, Northern Xinjiang is naturally at a loss, which constitutes a good reason and opportunity to raise an army to fight.

Similarly, Xibohou is also hesitating, according to the inertial thinking of the big business, he must want to maintain stability, and after finishing in the middle and the mud, Northern Xinjiang definitely does not want to fight, and it is rare to start recuperating, and now Northern Xinjiang will need at least five years of recuperation time to relieve his breath.

But Ji Chang wants to fight, especially especially wants to fight, even if he has just experienced the Dog Rong Rebellion, Ji Chang still wants to fight, and wants to tear off a piece of meat on Beijiang's body, otherwise the next time there is such an opportunity, it will be difficult to have such a reasonable and well-founded legal principle.

The state of Zhou is not a barbarian, and every war does not require the division to be famous, but it can't be too outrageous, and there must always be a passable argument.

The most important thing is that the rise of Meng Jiguo has put pressure on this old man, if he doesn't harvest a wave at this time, it will be difficult to say who will cut who in the future, everyone is a person who wants to progress.

He is afraid that once he starts fighting, there will be no turning back, and it will lead to big merchants and northern Xinjiang to join forces to sanction the Zhou State, and now the Zhou State can be said not to be afraid of big businessmen, but it does not mean that it can win big businessmen, and the risk lies between five and five open, if there is no border provocation and harassment of big businessmen, this balance will continue to tilt towards big businessmen.

Just when Ji Chang hesitated to grab his hair, San Yi ran all the way to Ji Chang's main camp with anger and panting, and said loudly as soon as he entered the door.

"Ji Bohou, three... Sanshanguan Xiancheng surrendered! ”

"What?"

Ji Chang was shocked, and even San Yisheng was a little incredulous.

"Sanshan Guan Hongjin and Tuxingsun have just shot from the city gate to surrender, saying that they want to surrender the city!"

Ji Chang was silent for a while, and then asked hesitantly: "You said they want to surrender the city?" Why? Why? ”

"I think it may be that I am afraid of your prestige and the soldiers of my Zhou Kingdom."

"Whew!"

The surprise came too quickly, Ji Chang rubbed his face, and looked at San Yisheng with a smile: "Yisheng, maybe this is the will of God, Tianyu will not take it, but accept it." ”

"Isn't the lord waiting for Dongyi's battle report?"

"Everyone has opened the door, so what else do I have to hesitate about? Let's go, follow me into the pass, the most difficult Sanshan Pass is broken, we can completely break through the Jiameng Pass before the arrival of the king's order, and take it in the northern Xinjiang, as long as we eat it, will it still be spit out? ”

Such a dreamy start made everyone in the Zhou Kingdom have an unreal feeling, and it was not until the army entered the pass that they believed that they had really won the Jiancheng Xiongguan that had been blocked in front of them for decades without blood.

When Ji Chang took the Zhou army to rest in Sanshan Pass for a few days, the army immediately marched straight to Jiameng Pass, and Hong Jin took the first step and came to Jiameng Pass to start persuading him to surrender to buy more time for Zhou.

"General Hu, open the city gate quickly, we have already surrendered to the Zhou State, don't make useless resistance, surrender to our Zhou State as soon as possible, and you can also occupy a major position with 30,000 soldiers under your command like Hong."

Hu Sheng was furious and reprimanded Hong Jin for his shamelessness, and drove away Hong Jin, who was persuaded to surrender, with a tough attitude, and immediately mobilized the defenders in the pass to prepare for the siege of the Zhou army.

As long as he can hold on until the heavy snow falls this year, he has every chance to wait for reinforcements from Chaoge.

Hong Jin returned to his own camp with a disgraced face, looked at the busy defenders at the head of the city, and directly waved his hand and launched an offensive towards Jiamengguan in advance.

The Hong Jin vanguard army, which was still wearing white armor, had changed into red armor at this time, and the crazy ants were attached to the siege of the city, and Tuxingsun went into battle in person, constantly using the art of earth escape to bombard and kill some key city defense positions and captains and military marquis in the defenders.

Looking at the nimble Tuxing Sun, Hu Sheng was resentful in his heart: "I only hate that my brother Hu Lei is not here, otherwise, how can I let this dwarf show off his power here?" ”

"Who can go into battle and lead the cavalry out of the city to disrupt the enemy's offensive?"

"The last general, Xu Kun, is willing to serve the general."

Hu Sheng fixed his eyes and saw that it was Xu Kun, the deputy general of the pass, who had always been brave and martial, and Hu Sheng did not talk nonsense, and directly ordered 3,000 cavalry to hand over to Xu Kun to go out of the city to disrupt the enemy's offensive.

Seeing Xu Kun rushing into battle and interrupting the siege rhythm under the cloud ladder, Tuxing Sun hated it so much, and the advantages that he had built up after being busy all at once let this military general be ruined.

A golden hemp rope flew out of Tuxingsun's hand, and he flew out with a swish, tying Xu Kun up strongly, and then Tuxingsun drilled out of the ground, and hit Xu Kun with an iron short stick in his hand, which made a brave warrior who fought on the battlefield fall off his horse, his brain burst, and a heroic spirit went straight to the god list.

Hu Sheng was annoyed, but there was nothing he could do, and the offensive that had just been interrupted immediately clinged to the city wall like a tide and continued to launch.

"Who dares to go to war again and lead 3,000 cavalry to stop the enemy from attacking the city?"

This time, no one stepped forward to receive the order, Xu Kun's tragic situation was still vivid, and no one thought that they could get anything good under that weird rope.

Seeing that many enemy troops had already climbed the city wall, Hu Sheng immediately pointed to Hu Yunpeng, the most powerful general among the generals, and said viciously: "General Yunpeng is the first warrior of my Jiamengguan, this battle belongs to you, and I also ask General Yunpeng to take action." ”

Hu Yunpeng swallowed a mouthful of saliva, looking at Hu Sheng's straight eyes, he was also bitter in his heart, if it was a duel with other mortal generals, he was not afraid in his heart, but the little man on the other side was obviously equipped with an evil law, he was just a mortal, and he was not a super fierce general like Meng Jibo, how could he win?

It's just that the main general has already spoken, and the military order is difficult to disobey, so he can only bite the bullet and lead 3,000 cavalry out of the city gate, and once again sweep away the siege troops near the cloud ladder.

At the same time, he also carefully observed the surroundings, until a golden light flashed in front of him, and Hu Yunpeng immediately waved the copper hammer in his hand, hitting the golden light fiercely, and slapping it to the ground.

"Haha, what a broken rope, it seems that it's nothing more than that."

As soon as the words fell, the golden light hemp rope immediately straightened, tripping the horse under Hu Yunpeng's seat directly, and when the general fell from the war horse, he repeated the trick and immediately stepped forward to tie it up with five flowers.

"Ridiculous, how can my rope be so inconvenient?"

Tuxing Sun killed Hu Yunpeng with a stick, and the two first-class generals in the world who generated income for the Fengshen List took back the bundle of immortal ropes with contempt and disdain, hooked his fingers at Hu Sheng on the city wall, and signaled him to send someone to send it again.

Unexpectedly, this time directly blinded Hu Sheng, in the horror and inexplicable, Hu Sheng ordered the last deputy general Fang Jixian to continue to defend the city, and he abandoned the city with his own military camp, and went straight to Binzhou after fleeing the city, saying that he was not willing to be like the two deputy generals, as a stepping stone for Tuxing Sun to become famous in the first battle.

When Ji Chang's Zhou army arrived at Jiameng Pass, the flag of Zhou had already hung above the city gate, and for a while Ji Chang was also overjoyed, saying that he had picked up the treasure, but he didn't expect that the two generals would have such great ability.

"Hahaha, to get the help of the two generals, Ji Chang is overjoyed."

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is not a good opportunity for us to rest, the third son of Binzhou is ridiculous, how can such a person be a marquis? and went straight to Binzhou with the old man to save the people of Binzhou. ”

The army of the Zhou State did not stop for a moment, and immediately opened up, and the small and medium-sized princely states surrendered along the way, until they reached the city of Binzhou, which could be regarded as stopping the invincible offensive.

Perhaps the northern frontier was really too bad, and most of the princes had long since lost enough strength to form an effective defense against the invaders.

It was not until it was pushed all the way to Binzhou, and nearly 400,000 troops were spread out in a large area, that they encountered fierce resistance from the new Binzhou Hou Taolin.

Others surrender and can still have good fruits to eat, Tao Lin has no choice, the reason for Zhou's crusade is to take his improper position, and the title he won from competing with his eldest brother and third brother as a reason for the crusade.

However, before the Zhou State started the siege, the cavalry battalion galloped back and forth from Binzhou to Jizhou, bringing the latest news to Ji Chang.

"Lord, Chaoge reinforcements have been found in the direction of Jizhou."

"Who's coming?"

"Looking at Daxu from afar, it should be...... The King's Army! ”

"What? Isn't Di Xin in Dongyi? Why did it come so quickly? Could it be that Di Xin gave up the strategy of Dongyi and failed to support Chonghu? ”

If you want to say that the most panicked, it has to be Hong Jin and Tuxingsun, they didn't expect that the reinforcements of Chaoge would come so quickly this time, and their attitude would be so resolute, it would be the king himself.

Tuxing Sun stiffened his neck and said: "Why should Ji Bohou panic, with me and General Hong going out, even if the prince is in person, what can I do?" We directly defeated Wang Shi and captured the king, since Cheng Tang can replace Xia Wei, why can't I, Ji Zhou, replace Shang Emperor Xin? ”

Ji Chang's face was as usual, but he raised his eyebrows lightly, showing the intention in his heart, and he saw Ji Bohou ask as if nothing happened: "Emperor...... How many soldiers and horses did the king bring? ”

After thinking for a moment, the detective immediately replied, "It should be 100,000 people. ”

"It's only 100,000, this ......"

"Isn't that putting the king in danger? No, as the most loyal Marquis of Zhou Guo, it is our duty to protect the safety of the king. ”

"Come on, gather generals, we are ready to welcome the king and protect the king."

Just when Xibohou gathered the army and quietly waited for Di Xin's army to approach, San Yisheng went crazy and broke into the camp directly, asking Ji Changping to retreat all the generals, and said in fear.

"The lord thinks twice, just now the minister came from the military market, and there is a news that has gone crazy."

"Meng Jibo 300,000 against 300,000, broke the Dongyi army, the Dongyi leader Li Wu was killed in battle, the Longyi general, the Fengyi witch festival, and the dog Yi leader were killed in battle, and the others were nowhere to be found, only the Daoyi prince Laihu returned to Huaidu with 20,000 Daoyi troops."

"This kind of ferocity is unprecedented, whether it is war or peace, please think about it carefully."

Ji Chang's jaw of surprise was about to reach the ground, the battle damage of 300,000 people, since he became sensible, whether it was from the history books or the stories he had heard, he had never heard such an outrageous thing, where is this war? This is clearly a massacre, even if it is to kill 300,000 pigs, it will not be so fast!

The warm mood was like encountering a basin of cold water, which directly poured a cold on Ji Chang, and he kept counting all the achievements since Meng Wei's 'debut', and his mood became extremely heavy.

Di Xin is not a good little daughter-in-law who can be manipulated by others, just to compete with Di Xin's elite, it takes a lot of effort, and now it seems that winning or losing has become not so important.

"Yisheng, postpone the expedition, go and tie up Hong Jin and Tuxing Sun, and send them to the king! Sanshan Pass guard Hong Jin, deputy general Tuxing Sun intended to rebel, I as a loyal Zhou State Marquis, the pursuit of the two thieves thousands of miles away, only to capture the two thieves alive, thanks to the king in person, Ji Chang is willing to offer the two thieves, for the king of Dongyi's conquest! ”

"But, my lord, what should I do when I have already collected two hundred miles of land in the northern frontier?"

Ji Chang took a deep look at San Yisheng, and said righteously: "Yisheng, when did we reclaim two hundred miles of land?" That is the land where we defeated the Hongjin traitors and recovered for the princes of Northern Xinjiang, and this is also a special thank you gift from them in order to thank us for their kindness. ”

"It's impossible to spit out the meat you eat, I think, it should be worth these two hundred miles to eliminate the war with Chonghou!"
