After the death of Emperor Duan, the original Duanguo noble room was purged.

Xia Ji, the commander of the Tang Army, drew troops and targeted the towns of Duanguo that had not yet been captured, some of whom were members of the Duanguo royal family, and after the death of Duandi, they ascended the throne with the help of the royal family.

In this way, Duanguo fell into a situation of one city and one king.

This is self-defeating.

Chen Qingzhi is attacking Wuling Pass at the moment, this is the gateway of Duanguo to guard the southern artery, it is very important, if you capture this place, the basic southern towns will belong to the bag.

However, the Tang army was not willing to give up this opportunity, and they drew part of their forces, wanting to occupy Wuling Pass while the Wei army was unprepared.

Since Chen Qingzhi is fighting on multiple fronts, it is very likely that he will hand over Wulingguan to others if he is not careful.

At this critical moment, Zhao Yun rushed over and confronted the Tang army on the ferry outside Wuling Pass.

The war is on the verge of breaking out.

After Xia Ji, the commander of the Tang Army, learned that it was Zhao Yun who was staring at him, he withdrew all the troops overnight, and no longer paid attention to several important military towns in the south of Duanguo.

A general was puzzled and asked: "Marshal, then Zhao Yun is only 300,000 people, and we have 600,000 troops, and we still have some troops on the frontier, why should we be afraid of this Zhao Yun?"

Xia Ji said angrily: "What do you know? Zhao Yun had already become famous in a war a few years ago, don't look at Taoguang over the years, he has hardly participated in any major battles, but no matter what, after all, he is still one of the five tiger generals of the Wei State, and he should not be underestimated. ”

This general's name is Deng Ning, a member of the family of Deng Qi, the general of the Tang State, because in the last world war, Deng Qi was defeated by Wei, so this time, Deng Qi was not reappointed, but Xia Ji was replaced.

Deng Ning was not used to looking at those people who lived in the previous merit book on weekdays, and he said to Xia Ji: "Marshal, this Zhao Yun has not been on the battlefield for a long time, can he still retain some ability?

Natsugi asked, "How do you want to tempt?"

Deng Ning hugged his fists and said: "Please ask the marshal to give the next elite army, and let the last general personally meet Zhao Yun for a while, the success or failure is naturally clear at a glance." ”

When Xia Ji heard this, he sneered in his heart.

Who is Zhao Yun? When he was not the commander of one side, he had almost defeated the existence of Ge Hong, a famous general of the Jin State, how could he be a general?

Now, as a commander for many years, his vision and ability are increasing day by day, and it is not the same as back then.

Just ask such a Zhao Yun, who can defeat it?

It is said that now Zhao Yun's prestige among the Wei army is higher than Chen Qingzhi's, and people who can have such high prestige will definitely have real talent and learning.

Leading an army will take a while Zhao Yun, are you worthy?

Xia Ji shook his head and said: "Now there is still a verbal agreement between the Tang and Wei countries, and it is not suitable for a military conflict, even if it is a conflict of situations. ”

Deng Ning didn't know whether he was alive or dead, and said unwillingly: "Please rest assured, the marshal knows the stakes in his heart, so the last general will declare to the outside world that it was the Wei State that took the initiative to provoke." ”

Xia Ji smiled: "Zhao Yun is also proficient in the art of war, what if you lead an army by yourself and lose?"

Deng Ning said: "Back to the marshal, the last general is willing to make a military order! If he is defeated, the last general is willing to die to apologize!"

Xia Ji laughed and said: "Okay! Since General Deng has such ambitions, this commander naturally has to vigorously support him! I wonder how many troops General Deng will need to go?"

Deng Ning said: "The last general has already made a plan in his heart, and he only needs 80,000 horses!"

80,000 against 300,000?

Isn't this looking for death?

What's more, the opponent is still a generation of famous players.

Deng Ning paused and said: "This last general does not plan to wipe out Zhao Yun's troops, only need to defeat Zhao Yun in the first battle, and it will usher in the possibility of our army smuggling through Wuling Pass." ”

Natsugi frowned.

No wonder this Deng Ning swore so much, it turned out that he was just holding the idea of winning the first battle, but even so, Xia Ji was not optimistic that Deng Ning would be able to win, because the opponent he faced this time was Zhao Yun!

If he can win, it is good, at least he can contain Zhao Yun and win the opportunity to attack Wuling Pass for himself.

Deng Ning led 80,000 horses and began to set off in the direction where Zhao Yun was currently located.

After he left, someone asked Xia Ji and said, "Marshal, why do you want Deng Ning to take this risk?"

He saw that the person who asked the question was his confidant, and there were no outsiders beside him, so he said: "This Deng Ning is said to have a good relationship with Deng Qi, and he is from the Deng family, and his relationship with Ben Shuai is not good. ”

When the generals heard this, they suddenly realized.

It is said that after Deng Ning led an army of 80,000 to camp in a valley, Zhao Yun got the news here.

Someone suggested that he strike first, because everyone could see that the sudden arrival of this army here must be a bad one.

But Zhao Yun was very patient, he said: "Dare to blatantly gather under our noses, I'm afraid there will be some ambush, don't worry, wait for them to show their feet." ”

He's going to brake statically.

At the same time, I also want to take a walk to the outside world to spread the news, saying that the Tang army took the initiative to attack the Wei army.

Using the means of public opinion, Zhao Yun was one step ahead of Deng Ning.

He did set up a net in the valley, just waiting for Zhao Yun to drill, but he waited left and right, but he didn't wait.

This made Dunning deeply suspicious.

This Zhao Yun, why hasn't he moved for a long time?

If they did not take the initiative to attack, then Deng Ning decided to take the risk and led 30,000 light cavalry to attack the enemy camp at night.

But when I arrived at Zhao Yun's barracks, I found that it seemed to be just an empty camp, and there were only a few soldiers here.

The capture of an empty camp made Dunning feel bad and decided to retreat.

As the saying goes, there must be a demon when something goes wrong, and sure enough, as soon as the order to retreat was given, a lot of archers were killed from all directions, all of which were under the volley of rockets, and in just one round, Deng Ning suffered heavy losses.

He hurriedly turned his horse's head and led the rest of the soldiers to break through, but when he rushed out of the camp and was about to return to his own barracks, he found that the camp had fallen into a sea of fire.

Seeing this, his face turned gray and muttered, "This is all done by Zhao Yun's puppeteer?"

He hurriedly gathered his old troops, left the valley, and retreated elsewhere.

But when passing through the road leaving the canyon, a Wei army appeared, led by Zhao Yun himself.

The exact number of people is unknown.

Deng Ning gritted his teeth, if he wanted to survive at this moment, he had to fight hard with the enemy, although he didn't know if he could fight it.

He held a spear in his hand and asked, "Can you report your name when you come here?" ”

Zhao Yun sat on the white dragon horse and said indifferently: "I am Changshan Zhao Zilong!"

After announcing his name, the enemy's soldiers, both soldiers and horses, were all terrified and trembled.

Because he exposed his killing intent.
