"As long as Mr. is willing to serve my Xicheng family, I will agree to any request!" Seeing Han Chongyan's decision to become the generalissimo of the Xicheng family, Xicheng Yidan was overjoyed.

"That is, the general must hold a grand ceremony to pay homage to the general, notify the generals of the entire Western Regions army to participate, and the general must personally hand over the general's seal to me!"

After hearing Han Chongyan's request, Xicheng Yidan was stunned for a moment, and then immediately agreed to his request, and after the two chatted for a while, Xicheng Yidan specially sent someone to arrange for Han Chongyan to live in Weiyang Palace.

"Brother, isn't this son too blind, and even asked you to personally hand over the seal to him in front of the generals, isn't this to destroy your prestige? Although this son has some ability to give advice, but his character is not very good, I heard that he even drilled the crotch of a hooligan on the streets of Chang'an. Not long after Han Chongyan left, Xicheng Yilong was a little unconvinced.

"What do you know? Han Chongyan said that this is to establish authority. He was already unknown, and he was even forced to drill into the crotch of the ruffian according to your law, how could the people under such a person with soldiers be convinced. He just wants to make a name for me. Xicheng Yidan said with a smile.

"But brother, isn't this ...... for you?"

Xicheng Yilong still wanted to, but was stopped by Xicheng Yidan raising his hand, he smiled and said: "The general's seal is just a chicken to me, but this Han Chongyan is a phoenix." I lost the chicken but got the phoenix, and the deal was worth it. ”

Soon, Xicheng Yidanbai spread the news of Han Chongyan to the Imperial City of Dadu.

"What is the origin of this Han Chongyan? I have never heard of this person in the Xicheng family before!" In the palace, the Emperor looked at the letter on the ground of the Eighth Emperor and asked.

"I heard that I was a down-and-out casual cultivator before, and my cultivation was just past the condensation period. And I heard that this person was cowardly by nature, entangled by ruffians on the streets of Chang'an, and was forced to drill into the crotch of other people's pants. Such people are nothing to worry about. ”

The words were about the fourteenth prince who had just returned from the north, and after getting the news of the Xicheng Yidan worship, he deliberately found someone to find out the details of Han Chongyan, but he didn't expect it to be a general.

"I've seen Xicheng Yidan, this son can be a tiger, and it will become a big weapon. Such a person is willing to hand over his position to a loose cultivator of unknown origin? And our war with the Xicheng family is about to break out, what kind of tricks is his Xicheng family engaged in at this juncture?"

Although he knew the origin of Han Chongyan from the mouth of the fourteenth prince, the human emperor was still not at ease. He paced back and forth in the palace, thought for a while, and immediately said to the fourteenth prince: "You immediately give an order to Yelu Qicai on the border, let him keep an eye on the movements of the Xicheng family, and once the other party has any abnormal movements, immediately report it." ”

After hearing the order of the Human Emperor, the Fourteenth Prince naturally did not dare to delay, and he immediately issued an order to Yelu Qicai, the commander of the garrison in the Western Regions, in accordance with the will of the Human Emperor.

......

As the commander who controls the important pass leading to Dadu in the Western Regions, Yelu Qicai can be experienced in a hundred battles, and when he visited the general in Yidan in Xicheng, he also sent someone to inquire about Han Chongyan's origin. But when he knew Han Chongyan's background, he began to stop paying attention to him, after all, a death-fearing ghost with a crotch in his pants was so scary.

Therefore, although the fourteenth prince gave him the order of the human emperor, and even increased the army by 10,000 from Dadu to take precautions, Yelu Qicai still did not take Han Chongyan seriously.

The ordinary human army of the entire Xicheng family was about 250,000, while the cultivator army was about 20,000. At this time, Yelu Qicai had 50,000 elite soldiers and nearly 5,000 cultivator soldiers in his hands. Although the number of troops is far behind the Xicheng family, the troops in Yelu Qicai's hands are mostly elite, and the combat effectiveness of the Western Regions army has always been not strong, plus he is guarding a dangerous pass, even the Xicheng family, which has five times the strength, is difficult to break through in a short time.

Moreover, behind Yelu Qicai's troops is the Northern Southern Army led by Dongfang Wuxi, once the two sides start a war, Dongfang Wuxian can lead 100,000 Southern Army soldiers to support within a few days, and at that time, the Xicheng Army has no chance of winning.

......

Since Han Chongyan obtained the position of generalissimo, he did not rush to lead the army to attack Yelu Qicai on the opposite side, but began to retrain the army he led.

At the same time as training, he also sent people to start the work of recruiting new soldiers, and he agreed to his soldiers that as long as someone can pull five fellow villagers into the army, then he will be the captain, as long as someone can bring back ten people, he will be the captain, if he can bring back a hundred people, he will be the centurion.

After getting Han Chongyan's promise, the recruits who had just enlisted in the army began to go around pulling their fellow villagers to join the army, and for a while, young people from the entire Western Regions enthusiastically joined the army, and in just one week, the number of troops under Han Chongyan's command doubled.

While expanding the number of soldiers, Han Chongyan did not relax his training for them, and the entire military camp was carried out in accordance with military law.

Under Han Chongyan's training, the Western Regions army, which was originally loose and not strong in combat, instantly turned into a division of a hundred battles.

And the changes in the Western Regions troops in a short period of time are not clear to Yelu Qicai on the other side.

After the army was trained, Han Chongyan began to formulate a method for attacking the Dadu army.

At this time, there were three passes associated with the Western Regions and Dadu, and the northern pass was built on the river, only a few pontoon bridges were related, and behind this pass was the Northern Southern Army led by Dongfang Wuhe, so it was the first to be denied by Han Chongyan.

The southern pass has a lot of mountain roads, so there are many plank roads along the mountain. The mountain roads in this place are treacherous, and there are many dense forests, which makes it extremely difficult to march.

Compared with the two passes in the north and south, the pass in the middle is a flat river before and after, which is the best breakthrough. Therefore, Yelu Qicai had a heavy army in the middle pass, and 35,000 of the 50,000 soldiers in his hands were stationed in the middle pass.

Looking at the map on the table, Han Chongyan fell into deep thought, Zheng obviously had the best breakthrough in the middle pass, but Yelu Qicai was also a veteran of the battle, and there must be heavy troops in the middle pass.

Once he can't break through the pass in a short period of time, once the reinforcements from Dadu arrive, he will fall into passivity. After all, the front and back of the pass are flat, and it will be easy for the army to support the capital. Not only did he have to fight, but he also had to hit unexpectedly.

Han Chongyan, who was looking at the map, frowned, and after thinking for a while, he suddenly burst out laughing. It turned out that after thinking about it just now, he thought of a good solution.
