When the imperial court learned that Xiqi raised 360,000 troops and approached Wuguan, the king and the civil and military officials were startled, and after opening the court meeting, they ordered Deng Jiugong to be the commander and lead an army of 200,000 to rush to the aid of Wuguan in the starry night.

Under the practice of the king of Zhou, Deng Jiugong led the army to leave the imperial court, all the way through Mengjin, and went to Bishui Pass.

"Report, Bishui Pass is lost!"

As soon as the army passed through Michi, they met the person sent by Gao Jineng to report the news, and the man was so tired that he couldn't breathe and rolled off his horse.

Deng Jiugong asked the man to be helped up, and poured some water before he woke up and said, "How long has the Bishui Pass been held?" ”

"Report to King Pingnan, only hold on for half a day. ”

As soon as these words came out, Deng Jiugong and the generals were shocked, and Gao Ji was able to assist Han Rong in defending the city, and he didn't even hold out for a day. Intuition told Deng Jiugong that the water pass must have encountered an unconventional war, otherwise it would not have been lost so quickly.

"The Bishui Pass has been broken, so what is the current situation of Han Rong and Gao Jineng. ”

"The chief general and deputy general have already led the army to Jiameng Pass. ”

Deng Jiugong nodded, as long as Gao Ji can be fine, it is okay to lose a city. Originally, Deng Jiugong's idea was to directly transfer the troops of Bishui Pass, Jiameng Pass, Qinglong Pass, and Chuanyun Pass, and concentrate all the forces to fight Jiang Ziya in Tongguan, but the king and the hundred officials did not agree, and there was no way, he could only lead the army to fight for the pass with Jiang Ziya.

After taking the messenger down to rest, Zhang Kui said to Deng Jiu fairly: "King Pingnan, the Bishui Pass has been broken, and Jiang Ziya's next target must be the Qinglong Pass." ”

Deng Jiugong glanced at him in some surprise and said, "Why do you think it's Qinglong Pass, not Jiameng Pass." ”

Zhang Kui said: "The guard of Jiameng Pass is Hu Sheng, this person is just a general, and there are no Taoist talents under him, such a pass, you only need to send all the way elite soldiers to take it, how can Jiang Ziya send a large army to attack with great fanfare." On the other hand, Qinglong Pass is not, like the last general, he is a person who is proficient in magic, and such a talent is Jiang Ziya's preferred target. ”

Deng Jiugong shook his head and said: "If it is an ordinary war, your analysis is very accurate, but there is a major event involved, this king thinks that Jiang Ziya will take Bishui Pass, and he will definitely divide his troops into two roads, one is the main force to take Jiameng Pass, and the other is to take Qinglong Pass." If these two levels are won, the Xiqi army will be able to drive straight into the cloud pass. ”

Hu Lei is the apprentice of the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit, if he dies, his temper is hot, and the reckless Holy Mother of Fire Spirit will not take action. In this way, Guang Chengzi's shot is logical, and he can scatter hooks and threads all over the sky. For the teachings, it is of great significance to play a good dream.

Zhang Kui wanted to ask for an understanding, but seeing Deng Jiugong's serious expression, he could only suppress the doubts in his heart.

Deng Chanyu on the side said: "Father, then we will go directly to Jiamengguan now." ”

She lived in Chaoge for two days, and when the father and daughter met, there was too much to say, but Deng Jiugong was not a person with exposed emotions, so he sent her away in a few words. This made Deng Chanyu very depressed.

Deng Jiugong said lightly: "No, let's go to Qinglong Pass." ”

At this very critical juncture, if he intervenes arbitrarily, he is afraid that the Sect will kill himself first, and he will not be able to kill Deng Jiugong if he sacrifices himself to complete the matter of sectarianism. For Deng Jiugong, as long as he seeks enough benefits from it, even if the two families fight like rotten pears, it has nothing to do with him, all he cares about is the few people who are good friends with him.

When the generals heard this, they were puzzled one by one, Jiameng Pass was in danger, and the king of Pingnan did not save it, but rushed to help Qinglong Pass, which was not eager. However, they admired Deng Jiugong, and no one dared to question and oppose his decision.

......

Jiamengguan, without Deng Jiugong's intervention, things are still developing towards the original wheel of history, although there is Gao Jineng, the guide, who told the main general Hu Sheng about the ability of the Xiqi leaders, but Hu Sheng did not take this matter seriously, he thought that the words from the mouth of a defeated general who abandoned the city and fled were not very credible.

Ji Kang died in the northern Xinjiang, Hu Sheng's only person who fought was his brother Hu Lei, under the clamor of the Xiqi army, Hu Lei rushed out of the city in anger, but he died before he could get out of the division, and was broken by Yin Jiao's heavenly seal, and his body died.

When Hu Sheng heard the bad news, he was shocked, and on the one hand, he was overwhelmed by the death of his younger brother, and on the other hand, he made the city gate closed and not allowed to fight. Hu Sheng and the generals were worried in the city, but Jiang Ziya, who was outside the city, did not move and besieged it for three days.

......

"Report to the marshal, there is a Taoist who calls himself Penglai Feathered Immortal who wants to see you. ”

Hu Sheng was worried about how to deal with Jiang Ziya's army, and a Taoist would come, and he was overjoyed in his heart, and he was busy inviting people to come in. Yu Yixian didn't talk nonsense, and directly said to help Hu Sheng capture Jiang Ziya, the thief, and his words made Hu Shengxi's eyebrows smile.

At this moment, there was a Gu who asked to see him, Hu Sheng was surprised, and he still invited someone in. After a while, I saw that Dao Gu was under the guidance of the housekeeper of Hu Mansion, stepping over, very vicious, with water and fire tied around her waist, and went to the front of the palace to make a joke.

Hu Sheng hurriedly bowed and asked, "Master is here, what do you have to say?" He knew that Hu Lei had a master, but he had never seen a real person, so he didn't know the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit.

Dao Gu said: "I am the Holy Mother of Qiu Ming Mountain Fire Spirit." Your brother Hu Lei is my apprentice, because he died at the hands of Yin Jiao, I specially went down the mountain to avenge him. You are his brother, but you don't go out of the city to avenge your brother, but you stay in the house all day long, helpless, and become the commander of the first army in vain. ”

Hu Sheng's face turned red when he said this, and he had rekindled some confidence in this court, so he didn't look at outsiders and stand with the enemy like in the original book.

The Holy Mother of Fire Spirit said: "That's it, it's just that I will go down the mountain and avenge this revenge." ”

Hu Sheng nodded, with the help of the two immortal masters of the Feather Winged Immortal and the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit, he couldn't help but feel a little more confident in the battle against Jiang Ziya. The generals on the side saw that there were masters to help, and the sorrow on their faces disappeared in an instant, only Gao Jineng was a little confused in his heart, and he sent someone to inform King Pingnan a few days ago, why there are no soldiers and horses galloping to help Jiamengguan now, it stands to reason that King Pingnan should have arrived a long time ago.

Our Lady of Fire Spirit asked Hu Shengguan how many people there were, and when she learned that there were 20,000 soldiers in Mabu, she said, "You can choose 3,000 to come out with me and practice in the teaching field, so that it will be useful." ”

Although Hu Sheng didn't know what she was going to do, he also guessed that this had something to do with dealing with Jiang Ziya's army, so he didn't ask much, and immediately ordered his subordinates to select three thousand Xiong Biao men from the army and go to the teaching field early tomorrow morning.

Feather Winged Fairy had naturally heard of the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit, and when he saw that she had nothing to do with himself, he was very angry, but he didn't dare to offend her openly, so he said to Hu Sheng: "Marshal Hu, tomorrow you will lead the army out of the city, take the lead from the poor road, and go to meet Jiang Ziya." ”

Hu Sheng glanced at the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit with some embarrassment, this Dao Gu was under the slogan of avenging her brother, if she disrupted her plan, she would have good fruits to eat.

The Holy Mother of Fire Spirit snorted and said, "You beat you, as long as you have that ability, the poor Dao will not interfere." It's just that if you are not defeated, don't find a poor way to help. ”

She has an extreme temperament and likes to be alone, although the Feather Winged Fairy is also the same family, but she doesn't pay attention to the Feather Winged Fairy.

Feather Winged Immortal said: "Our Lady's words are bad, just Jiang Ziya, how many avenues can be done, even if the poor road is not defeated, it is easy to get out, how can I bother Our Lady to come to the rescue." ”

The Holy Mother of Fire Spirit said lightly: "This is the best. ”

With that, she greeted Hu Sheng and left the hall.
