According to the plan, the vanguard army was divided into five routes, and marched from the intersection of the Wolf Pass Mountain Road towards Jinjun......

And at this moment, at the other intersection of the Wolf Guanxi Road, a large number of Mengyuan troops were slowly approaching......

"General Xue, the wolf is in front of you...... a soldier said to the leader-like figure of the army.

This person is none other than Huaibei Taishou Xue Qiang. Xue Qiang personally led troops to rescue Xuzhou this time, which shows that he attaches great importance to the defense of Xuzhou Chengguan. And the passage from Huaibei to Xuzhou, Wolf Pass is the place that must be passed. Wolf Ziguan has nine bends and eighteen bends, it is known as the "mountain road labyrinth", and there is the natural danger of the ancient town of the highlands, that is, it is the place where the soldiers must fight. Xue Qiang, like Yan Jitai, has many years of experience in warfare, and he also expected that Zhu Yuanzhang's troops might be ambushed and intercepted at Wolf Pass.

However, Xue Qiang's marching speed was indeed fast, and within a few hours, he arrived at Wolf Pass from Huaibei. The topography of Langziguan is more familiar to Meng Yuan than Zhu Yuanzhang's troops, and if it really starts a battle, Xue Qiang's army may not suffer......

"Wolf Pass, Nine Cookies Pass and the terrain is dangerous, if you want to reach Xuzhou through here, I'm afraid it is not easy to ......" Xue Qiang looked at the entrance of Wolf Pass, stretched out his hand and tried to fall the drizzle, and then said, "And tonight is shrouded, and light rain is falling from the sky, if our army goes deep, it will inevitably be a dark battle...... But the wolf's Guanzhen County is a battleground for battle, and our army cannot afford to slack off for a moment—"

"General, the spies from the front have reported that they have discovered the movements of Zhu Yuanzhang's troops-" At the critical moment, the pathfinder soldiers of the Huaibei army sent important information.

"Is there really an ambush...... Xue Qiang's eyes froze, and he couldn't help asking, "Do you know who the general of the enemy army is." How many centaurs are there?"

"Back to the general, because it's too dark. It is difficult to see the enemy generals at all in the rainy day...... "The soldier continued. "And the spies came back to report, saying that there are movements of enemy troops in all passes of Wolf Pass, although there are not many of them, but they are sneaking in formation, and their subordinates are worried that the enemy army has other plans to ambush——"

Xue Qiang thought about it, put on the Miao knife on his waist, and said with a certain look in his eyes: "Hmph, no matter what tricks Zhu Yuanzhang has." As long as the enemy is small, we have a chance of victory...... Now that it was drizzling, and their army had not been able to light an open fire, their goal was probably to capture the county, and they would not have succeeded if there was no open fire at night, and the terrain was unfamiliar. And if our army intercepts it immediately at this time and breaks it one by one, in this wolf pass, this general will tell them to come and go!"

Xue Qiang said confidently. The Meng Yuan soldiers who followed behind him were eager to try one by one, and they all pulled out the Miao knife or the long knife of the cavalry.

"My lord, where should our army march from?" asked a sturdy general in the back, who seemed to be unable to wait to gallop through the Wolf Pass. Bloody battle with Zhu Yuanzhang's troops.

Xue Qiang looked at the intersection in front of him and said with a slight smile: "Don't worry, the enemy army is not familiar with the intersection of Wolf Pass." In the darkness of the night, he is like a blind mouse. No matter which pass we enter, no matter which way we meet, we encounter troops on which road. can break it...... After a while, he traveled from the middle of the road and followed back the intelligence of the spies ahead. When the opportunity comes to see the enemy's army, I will order it to kill him in a short time!"

"Yes—" replied the general behind him at the same time.

"Driving-" "Driving-" Xue Qiang rode a horse and took the lead in marching through the Wolf Pass, and the large army in the rear followed closely behind......

The name of "mountain road maze" is not false, looking down from top to bottom, dozens of stretching curves are stacked on top of each other, like a twisted rope that is wound together, it is difficult to break free. It's hard to tell from above, let alone get into it. Sure enough, after the vanguard soldiers entered the Wolf Pass in five ways, they could no longer find any trace of their fellow troops, as if they were isolated. The ring is surrounded by climbing mountains, and if you are not careful, you will fall into a maze and cannot get out. Occasionally, I can hear the cascading sound of the iron hooves of the war horses on the other side of the mountain, but because I can't find the intersection around the corner, I only hear its sound and don't see its people......

The troops led by Lu Jing in Tang Zhan were mainly infantry, and although they wanted to reach Guanzhong County quickly, they were afraid that the enemy would be ambushed, and the marching speed had to be slow. In addition, Lu Jing has a lot of eyes, the more dangerous things are, the more cautious she is, and with the help of the "black light and blind fire" on the mountain road, Lu Jing even makes the movement of the troops smaller and smaller, and she walks on tiptoe......

"Jing'er, we seem to be lost...... Tang Zhan followed Lu Jing's side and said softly.

"It's normal to get lost, after all, our army is not familiar with the mountain ......roads here," Lu Jing replied softly, "so we try to reduce the movement as much as possible, and it is difficult for the enemy to find our ...... when there is no open fire on a rainy day."

"If there is really an enemy ambush, is it the reinforcements from Huaibei, or is there a trick in Yanjitai?" Tang Zhan asked again.

Lu Jing paused for a moment, and then said: "If there is, I would rather be reinforcements from Huaibei...... Yan Jitai is a very scheming person, the battle of Xuzhou Chengguan, even I was calculated by him, if he really intervenes in the wolf pass, I am afraid that our army will face unforeseen ......"

"Listen, military advisor, there seems to be the sound of an army marching on one side of the mountain road...... Lao Jiu suddenly said at this time, hearing the movement of an unknown army on the other side of the mountain road, the experienced Lao Jiu was also extremely cautious.

Lu Jing was the same, she and Tang Zhan made a gesture to the troops behind, signaling that the troops' actions were slightly restrained, and then the officers and men of the troops lowered their bodies and moved forward slightly with a slight leaning over.

"It seems to be in the place ahead, there are a lot of them, and we are coming from the front......" Lu Jing's ears were very pointed, and in the darkness and silence, through the frequency change of the footsteps on the opposite side, she could even estimate the number and formation of the enemy's vanguard.

"If we really run into it, I'm afraid it won't be easy......" Tang Zhan was also a little worried, "Our troops are divided into several roads, and the number of people on each road has dropped sharply, if we encounter an ambush of the enemy, it is impossible to meet head-on......

"Let's take a look before we ......" Lu Jingxin also raised his throat, taking advantage of the ups and downs of the dark clouds in the night, the black shadow of the unknown army at the crossing in front flickered frequently, and it seemed that the moment he recognized it in the moonlight, the battle was about to break out.

In the end, Tang Zhan, Lu Jing and the others didn't even dare to speak, and the troops behind were even more orderly and motionless, without Tang Zhan Lu Jing's order, every soldier lay motionless at a low place like a stake and rock......

At the same time. The troops led by Xiao Tian and Su Jia also encountered a similar situation......

"Ah Tian, did you hear it? Just now from the side of our mountain road, there was the sound of a large group of people and horses...... Su Jia was very keen in hearing. Sensing the unknown movement nearby, he whispered into Xiao Tian's ear.

"There was a figure in the narrow passage ahead. The sound and movement of the brigade just now should have come from there...... "Xiao Tian was also extremely cautious, while ordering the troops behind him to stop advancing, he looked down slightly at the situation in front of him. For the sake of safety, Xiao Tian even lay his body beside the rock, avoiding the reflection of the dim moonlight coming out of the dark clouds, and his figure was also dark on the other side.

"What the hell is going on?" Haha asked with a stupid look at the tall horse and the big head, and the body is not easy to hide.

"Don't make a ......noise about the dead fat man" is better than haha. Ah Duo has a short head, he can move more freely, and seeing that Haha is talking on the side that it is easy to expose the target, Ah Duo couldn't help but remind in a low voice.

"You two don't make trouble, be quiet......" Xiao Tian couldn't help but turn around and whispered.

Su Jia looked at the narrow mouth for a long time, and there seemed to be a figure moving just now, but it was gone all of a sudden, and it felt like confusing the shadow of the figure with the rock. But just now, I clearly heard the footsteps of the army, for fear that the enemy army was deliberately ambushing. Su Jia didn't dare to slack off in the slightest.

"What should I do?" Xiao Tian crouched beside Su Jia and asked seriously and nervously, "If it is really an ambush by the enemy, we are ...... people."

Su Jia's eyes were very firm. He whispered, "In order to ensure the safety of the troops, we must venture over and take a look......

"How about I?" Hu Yidi also leaned over. It seems that he wants to pay for his life.

"No, it's better for me to go with Jia'er......" Xiao Tian replied softly. "In terms of light skills and raids, Jia'er and I are better at it. In case it's really an enemy ambush, Jia'er and I can handle it......"

Su Jia nodded, agreeing with Xiao Tian's point of view.

Although Hu Yidi was unwilling, he also had to focus on the overall situation at the critical moment, so he had no objections.

Xiao Tian continued: "Brother Hu, the brothers in the back will be handed over to you first, and Jia'er and I will go and try it later, if it is really an enemy army, whether to fight or withdraw to see me and Jia'er signal......"

"Got it, you have to be careful...... Hu Yidi reminded repeatedly.

"Hmm......" Xiao Tian nodded slightly, and simply laid out the plan, Xiao Tian and Su Jia clinged to the rocks of the mountain, and quietly groped their way closer in the darkness by taking advantage of the moment when the dark clouds closed the moon......

Zhao Zichuan's military department ......

"General Zhao, someone saw it just now, there seems to be a large group of people moving in front of me......" Li Xian and Li Gong all the way, closely following behind Zhao Zichuan, Li Xian suddenly mentioned the situation of the crowd in front of him.

At this time, Zhao Zichuan's troops had significantly slowed down, and the previous plan to quickly reach Jinjun was also slowed down by half a beat. When it came to the movement ahead, Zhao Zichuan also noticed it early in the morning, but they didn't know whether the figures moving in front of them were their own people or enemies.

"Don't act rashly, the mountain road here is narrow, if you rush up, if the opposite side is really an ambush by the enemy's main force, it will be too ......late to retreat," Zhao Zichuan said cautiously, "Wait until I go to see it and try it out, and then make a decision......

Therefore, Zhao Zichuan slightly accelerated the speed of his horseback, opened a slightly shorter distance from the main force, and slowly advanced a few steps with the cold light reflected by the dim moonlight on the blade......

On Murong Fei's side, the situation was roughly the same, and they always faintly heard the movement of troops on both sides of the mountain road, and even the sound of talking. In this drizzly night with black lights and blinding, every move of the soldiers was extremely careful......

"Brother, there is always a crowd of people around here, could it be ......" Murong Ying's heart was also tense, and from time to time she asked her brother Murong Fei beside her. To tell the truth, Murong Ying has been on the battlefield for so long, and she is not afraid of the battlefield fighting, but now that she is caught in the killing machine that surrounds her at all times in this dark night, there are many dangers and killing intent, and there is a suffocating cold current aura all around, and Murong Ying can't help but tremble a little.

"Be careful, we are now divided into several troops, there are not many people, and we must not easily fight with the enemy army......" At the critical moment, Murong Fei was still very calm, "Sister Jing said that our goal is to go to Jinjun...... If there is really an unknown army movement ahead, leave him alone for the time being, this is like a wolf pass in a labyrinth. No one could guess whether it was their own men or an enemy ambush ahead...... We can avoid what we can and wait until the movement in front of us subsides. Then we will march towards Jinjun......"

Murong Fei is indeed worthy of being a right-wing commander in the army, and the more tense the situation is that there is no room for mistakes. Murong Feiyue was calm......

And the situation on Nangong Jun's side is slightly different, and they also notice the side road surrounded by mountains from time to time, and from time to time there are movements of unknown troops. Sometimes they move in formation, their steps are neat, and sometimes they stand still, as if they have disappeared or are ambushed in place......

Nangong Jun knew that the situation ahead was unknown, and the troops were also careful every step of the way.

"Without my order, there can be no action...... Nangong Jun was also cautious and didn't figure out the situation ahead. Their own troops simply did not move. In fact, Nangong Jun didn't know the bottom in his heart, if in this murderous night, his troops were ambushed by the enemy, and he couldn't escape immediately from such a narrow mountain pass, but he didn't know what to do......

The waning moon loomed under the dark clouds that covered the sky, like a trance of blood, and the wolf closed the narrow mouth of the mountain road that was coiled like a snake. Layers of black shadows swayed, and the cold night iron watchman "clanged" in the cold wind from time to time. Especially at the moment of complete stillness, the scene is the most solemn and quiet...... However, the hour passed, and the dark clouds began to thin. The drizzle will gradually stop, and the lonely night will begin to clear like a fierce light......

"The rain seems to have stopped...... stopping the troops, Lu Jing couldn't help but mention, "The light rain will stop." A moment the troops were ignited and illuminated...... But before that, you have to figure out who is on the other side, and you can't expose the target yourself......"

"I'll take a look in a moment......" critical moment. It was Tang Zhan who stepped forward and rose from the rock mass at the same time. Hold the pear flower gun tightly in your hand and respond to the unexpected at any time.

"Wait. Fool, I'll go with you......" Lu Jing didn't worry about Tang Zhan alone, and followed closely behind Tang Zhan......

"I'll count one, two, three, and turn around ......" Xiao Tian's side was also admonishing Su Jiadao.

Su Jia's hand had already clenched the hilt, and the ghost knife was ready to be unsheathed at any time......

"General Zhao has already raised the gesture......" Zhao Zichuan's army, Li Xian looked at Zhao Zichuan, who was walking in the front, and his movements when he faced the figure in front of him.

"Brother Li Xian, sort out the troops......" Li Gong also reminded anxiously on the side......

"Brother, there seems to be no movement ahead, and the rain seems to have stopped......" Murong Fei here, Murong Ying said in an extremely subtle voice.

Murong Fei didn't speak, just raised his hand and gestured......

"Let's go—" Tang Zhan suddenly shouted, and then turned around with Lu Jing......

"One...... Two...... Three-" Xiao Tian shouted and flashed over with Su Jia......

"Rub the-" On Zhao Zichuan's side, the torches on the opposite side suddenly lit up. The real body of the army suddenly appeared in front of him, and Zhao Zichuan's eyes were a little surprised......

"Open flame-" Murong Fei ordered that the vanguard army should be the first to light the open flame here......

"General Nangong, it seems that it was the voice of the army's order just now-" All the voices and orders in the silent night seemed to open at the same time in an instant, and on the side of Nangong Jun's troops, the soldiers with close cronies reminded.

Nangong Jun didn't dare to relax for a moment, and only when the scene was silent again did he slowly signal the troops to light up the open flame......

The results are instantaneous......

"It's you-" Tang Zhan and Lu Jing's side, a little unable to believe their eyes, the two turned their heads to look at the side of the mountain, and happened to meet Xiao Tian and Su Jia who flashed out.

"This is really a 'rival meeting', it seems that our two teams met in the maze......" Xiao Tian saw that it was Tang Zhan and Lu Jing, and breathed a sigh of relief with Su Jia, but in the end, the two sides had a false alarm, and thought that the two armies were about to fight......

"Brother, it seems that it is not an ambush of the enemy army, we are worried about it too much-" On the side of Murong Fei's troops, after the bright flames were lit, they were lucky not to encounter Meng Yuan's ambush army, and after the unknown movement of people and horses in front of them, there was probably nothing in the night.

"Don't take it lightly, maybe it's just a temporary bypass here, the Mengyuan army may not go far, don't act rashly-" After lighting the torch, Murong Fei still didn't forget to remind......

"The whole army is there, march in the direction of Nandao-" Nangong Jun finally made up his mind, and when the troops were fully lit, he immediately ordered the troops to go to the place where the movement occurred......

The rest is on the side of Zhao Zichuan's troops...... Zhao Zichuan was stunned, what appeared in front of his troops was the broadest flat land in Wolf Pass, and he was good at arranging the formation with cavalry. And in the plain in the middle of the formation, tens of thousands of Mengyuan iron cavalry stood in front of their own army head-on - it was none other than Xue Qiang's main Huaibei reinforcements, and unfortunately it was Zhao Zichuan's troops who collided head-on...... (To be continued......)
