Because the Chiyang Wei Qianhu is located in the rear of the Chiyang Wei, there was originally no city wall, but since the Eryang Rebellion, the Chiyang Wei mobilized more than 10,000 soldiers and civilians to build the city wall in a hurry. finally made up for the most empty shortcomings of Chiyang Wei's defense.

Chiyang Wei never thought of all the necessary defenses of the defender Qianhe, because their main task was to defend against attacks from the barbarians. But the whole Sichuan Mansion was in chaos, and even the city was crumbling. Maybe one day the rebel army will come over.

Du Rong was urgently dispatched to the guard post by Du Changgeng. As Du Changgeng's eldest son, Du Rong inherited all the advantages of Du Changgeng, brave, good at leading troops to fight, outstanding command ability, and is Du Changgeng's ideal successor. At a young age, he has already been awarded five products and thousands of households. There are 1,200 regular soldiers and 2,000 militia members, totaling more than 3,000 soldiers. The 2,000 members of the militia regiment, although nominally a famous regiment, are in fact not much different from the regular army in terms of combat effectiveness.

Private placement of the army is a big crime in Daqi, but in this year of war and chaos, everyone is selectively blind.

Du Rong has been under a lot of pressure recently, and the chaotic army has swept away after all, Chiyang Wei, and the guard Qianhu is the first to bear the brunt. According to the intelligence detected by the scouts, nearly 50,000 people of the rebel army have been approaching Chiyangwei. It will soon reach the Pingxi Valley, and a major battle may be inevitable.

The guard Qianhu is the back of Chiyang Wei, Chiyang Wei has been fighting with the barbarians for so many years, and this guard Qianhu is the hub of Chiyang Wei's logistics support. The Guard Thousand Households is still the main military food storage point of Chiyangwei. If this place is conquered by the rebel army, Chiyangwei will face a huge crisis.

But it is precisely because of this granary of the guard Qianhu that the rebel army has set its sights on here.

There are 50,000 rebel troops, of which at least 30,000 are young and strong, and at least 10,000 are capable of fighting. Many of them are guards of various guard posts, and most of these guards are waste soldiers who fight sparsely and compete for merit. Their soldiers won't have much combat effectiveness, but their numbers are terrifying.

Du Rong rode on the back of a dragon-scale horse, gently pulling the reins in his hand. The dragon-scaled horse paced unhurriedly in place, its hooves stomping on the ground with a low sound.

Li Fuyou, the secretary of the guard Qianhu, rode a jujube red horse, which could be regarded as a first-class horse, but compared with the dragon scale horse ridden by Du Rong, it was naturally overshadowed.

"The eldest prince, do you want to ask General Du for help? 50,000 rebel troops, with this low wall, I am worried that I will not be able to stop it. Li Fuyou was a little sad for a while.

"A rabble, let alone this wall, even if there is no wall, our guard can easily resist it. The art of war clouds, ten are to surround it, five are to attack it, and if it is doubled, it will be able to fight, and the enemy will be able to divide it, and if it is less, it can be defended, and if it is not, it can be avoided. The rebel army is called 50,000, and it is very good to have 10,000 who can fight. If you want to capture the guard, you must have at least 20,000 elite soldiers. How could these 50,000 chaotic troops shake our guard?" Du Rong was not very worried.

"But in the event of a sudden increase in the number of troops in the rebellion, it will be too late for us to call for help. Anyway, now that the barbarians haven't fought over, the general should be able to send some more troops over. Li Fuyou saw that Du Rong was full of confidence, but he was even more worried.

Du Rong smiled slightly: "I won't be stupid here waiting for the chaotic army to attack." The third child has made achievements, how can I, the eldest brother, fall behind?"

"The eldest prince, General Du has ordered that he is absolutely not allowed to go out of the city to face the battle. With the walls and the dangerous terrain, it is possible for us to hold the rearguard, and if we go out of the city and fight the enemy, the enemy is overwhelming, and it is not good for us. Li Fuyou was anxious.

Du Rong laughed: "Li Yan doesn't need to worry, I naturally won't go head-to-head with the rebels." ”

That night, the city gate of Pingxi Valley opened, and a group of more than 1,000 cavalry galloped out of the rearguard like lightning, and after more than 1,000 cavalry left, the city gate was quickly closed.

As soon as the cavalry left, the servant Li Fuyou hurriedly arrived.

"What about the eldest prince? Li Fuyou rushed over when he heard the news, but he was already a step late.

"The eldest prince has already left the city. The soldier guarding the gate said.

"Well, it's a problem. Hurry up and send someone to report to General Du!" Li Fuyou suddenly became a master of the six gods.

"Wait. The Hundred Households Zhou Gang hurriedly said.

"Zhou Baihu, if you don't report General Du in time, what happened, are you responsible?" Li Fuyou said dissatisfiedly.

"Li Yanshi, I naturally can't take responsibility, but the eldest prince has already gone out with his people, and if he can't afford to be responsible, it is impossible to chase the eldest prince back. Although the eldest prince is young, he is very disciplined in leading troops to fight, and he will definitely not take risks without certainty. The march of the rebel army is extremely slow, and there are still a few days to go from here, so why don't we wait two days, maybe the eldest prince will bring back good news?" Zhou Bang said.

Du Rong rushed to the vicinity of the Xiningwei Shiqiao Thousand Households near Chiyangwei overnight and stopped.

"The eldest prince, the general of the rebellious army is Yao Zhengyin, the original Qianhu of Shiqiao. Before the rebels came, the dog rebelled. ran to the Lantian Puppet Emperor and received the title of General Zhenxi. This dog thing has been to our guard post and knows the situation of the guard barn, so he was the first to start the idea of the guard post. Just from the puppet emperor Yang Qianying, tens of thousands of chaotic people were divided, and a team of 50,000 people was raised. The puppet emperor gave him a title and gave him hands, but did not give him enough food. Puppet Emperor Yang Qianying himself did not have it. Now the Sichuan Mansion has been swept all over by them, with so many chaotic people, and they have swept away everywhere they go. This year's summer grain is still confiscated in the field, and Eryang only loots but does not produce, so the more he eats, the less he eats. Liu Ming'an, a scout sent by Du Rong, rushed to the place where he met Du Rong.

"Where is the position of the main force of the rebel army now, and how far is it from the Shiqiao Thousand Households?" Du Rong asked hurriedly.

"It's almost a day away. The march of the chaotic army is messy, it can't be fast at all, and if it is a little faster, a large number of people will be left behind. Yao Zhengyin took more than 50,000 men and horses with him at the beginning, and now at least 4,500 people have been scattered. Liu Ming'an said.

"A day's journey, then we should be able to arrive in an hour. Du Rong thought for a moment and looked up at Liu Ming'an.

The torch illuminated Du Rong's face red.

"It should be in time. I came from there, and it wasn't been an hour. Liu Ming'an nodded.
