The Sacred Ding Chapter 161: Unexpected attention
It is confirmed that the main force of the rebels is in the Tongbei Mountains. It is even possible that the Tongbei Mountains have been in business for several years, and Wei Yuqi, who does not know anything about Chimei Sect, naturally regards the final victory. In front of me.
While he personally urged the main force to continue to push and attack the city, he also formally ordered Chen Hai to lead his troops northward from Nanzhang Mansion and join them to make up for the lack of troops ahead.
In Wei Yuqi’s view, although the main force of the 50,000 Xiyuan Army is enough to defeat the rebels, if the rebels are scattered and fleeing in the deep mountains and forests of Qintong Mountain, they want to expand the results of the battle, and the soldiers and horses they chase will be natural The more the better.
At this time, Ge Tong, Ding Shuang, Cao Shan and others led the first batch of 5,000 people to join Chen Hai in Nanzhang Mansion.
Chen Hai took the lead. Fan Chun, who stayed in Qin Tongguan, overcame all kinds of difficulties as much as possible, and continued to transport carts and horses to the canyon west of Qin Tongguan, waiting for Ge Tong, Ding Shuang, and Cao Shan to lead. The first batch of Min Yong from Taohuawu rushed to Qin Tongguan to gather in order to use this batch of carts and horses to drive on the road. It was four days later than Chen Hai and the others to arrive at Nan Zhang Mansion.
For Min Yong, who has only been officially training for half a month, this marching speed is fast enough.
Of course, these people are all directly recruited from the mines, quarries, and logging yards opened up in the northern part of Taohuawu. Not only are they very disciplined, but Cao Feng and Cao Shan have been among them. It is not bad to teach the art of martial arts.
After the official compilation and training of Minyong, apart from transferring two veterans and hundreds of soldiers from the seventh capital, Chen Hai also first equipped them with thousands of armor sets reserved by the armor shop, and then Dong Pan Thousands of armors were also sent; after Ge Tong, Ding Shuang, and Cao Shan led the group of Minyong to arrive at Qintongguan, Fan Chun had all the armors that were missing.
According to Chen Hai's order, Ge Tong has already incorporated the hundreds of guards who stayed at Taohuawu into this batch of people. Even if the fighting power of this group of people is still very limited, when necessary, they will ensure that they can follow Chen Hai's orders and enter the battlefield firmly.
There will be more Minyong Clubs arriving in the future, but Chen Hai has no time to wait anymore. Fan Cheng, the son of Fan Chun’s son, will lead the Fan’s 500 elite guards as the vanguard. He will lead the way. More than ten thousand soldiers in Qidu are in the army.
Chen Hai also compiled more than forty elite disciples of Hexi Taiweizong, including Cen Yunfei, Chen Qing, and Wuqian Minyong as reserve forces, and followed the main force to move north.
With a large number of carriages and horses coming in, Chen Hai and the others' speed of marching northward has accelerated a lot.
The rebels also seem to realize that Chen Hai’s subordinates are extremely threatening. From the first day Chen Hai and the others left Nan Zhang Mansion and headed north, small groups of rebels continued to harass from the two-wing chasm. .
The strength of these small groups of rebels is so weak that they are not enough to pose any effective threat to Chen Hai and the others, but the moths came out of the mountains as if they were fighting fire, with the intention of slowing Chen Hai and the others' northward speed.
The more small actions of the rebels, the more you can see that the long-planned decisive battle between the Scarlet Brows and the rebels in the Tongbei Mountains is about to start. Chen Hai's will become more determined and he will not be harassed by small groups of rebels. Disturbance, pushing the army northward at full speed.
Thirty or forty soul birds watched the grass and one tree in the two wings of the mountain day and night, and more than 15,000 generals continued to advance north, and every day, with the main force of the West Garden Army led by Wei Yuqi It is about two or three hundred miles closer.
On the sixth day, Chen Hai led his troops to the outskirts of Zuojin Valley. There were as many as a thousand Hexi horses that died on the way, and the number of damaged trucks was unknown.
At this time, Chen Hai had already entered the northern foothills of the Qintong Mountains, and the gorge road became narrower and narrower.
Fortunately, Fan Cheng led the forward to move faster. If a storm swept across, the rebels were caught off guard. Only a small group of soldiers and horses lurked in the mountains on both wings, and they had no ability to destroy the road that Chen Hai and the others passed.
The mountains on both sides are like halberds and swords, piercing the sky, and the dense forests of the mountains can see the figure of the rebels wandering through the edges.
In front is Zuo Jingu.
The rebels knew that small harassment could not slow down the advancement of Chen Hai’s troops, so they formally organized their troops to break out of the mountains on the two wings, rushing to Chen Hai and the others to occupy Zuojin Valley. At this time, they had already borrowed the southern end. Taniguchi's dangerous terrain pours out troops, trying to prevent Chen Hai and the others from entering Zuojin Valley.
Chen Hai took the lead in the first and second battle battalions. First, he reorganized the formation on a grassy **** outside Zuojin Valley, seized the time to chew the dried meat, and each took an extra qi and blood essence. Yuan Dan.
Passing from Zuojin Valley, it is the largest dam basin in the deep mountains at the northern foot of Qintong Mountain.
The official name of this basin is the Tongbei Mountains. Although there are mountains and ridges everywhere in the basin, the terrain of Tongbei Mountains, which is three hundred miles in length and breadth, is much gentler than the lofty mountains around it. The rivers and lakes are vertical and horizontal, and the climate is warm and humid, which is also conducive to farming and nourish people.
Qin Tongshan is also the most prosperous in Tongbei, with dense villages. Dayan set up Tongbei House here and 17 counties under it. It is full of nuisances from robbers and bandits all the year round. The local armed forces and clan force are relatively strong. .
Wei Yuqi dared to lead a lone army to directly insert here, and he also knew that in Tongbei Prefecture, he could not only obtain food and grass supplies, but also recruit local military equipment and civilians to fight with the army.
No matter how strong the migrant rebels are, it is impossible to capture all of the 17 counties of Tongbei Prefecture in such a short period of time.
Chen Hai is determined to lead his troops to capture Zuojin Valley. A big factor is also the potential of Tongbei Prefecture, north of Zuojin Valley.
They occupied Zuojin Valley and controlled the key pass in and out of Tongbei Prefecture. After receiving the remnants of the Xiyuan Army, they further integrated the armed preparations of the prefectures and villages that were not lost, and the rebels could be in a short time. A confrontation is formed, and if time is delayed, the situation will inevitably tilt towards them.
If they were blocked from Tongbei Mansion, the rebels could not only eat all the 50,000 main forces of the Xiyuan Army, but also conquer a county in Tongbei Mansion, the strength of the rebels would increase by one point.
There are millions of refugees and rebels. At this time, they are still mobs, but they continue to experience cruel warfare, and they can get enough supplies to rest in Tongbei, so that more elite Crimson Brows will be better. It may only take three or five months for the rebels to be incorporated and integrated into the rebels. This rebel army will become elite and will become a confidant that is difficult to remove from the heart of the Great Yan Empire.
At this time, Wei Yuqi led the main force of the Xiyuan Army and passed through Tongbei Mansion and entered the mountains to the north to pursue the main rebel force. Even so, the distance between Chen Hai’s subordinate and the main force of the Xiyuan Army was only four hundred. Inside.
Chen Hai, surrounded by Sun Buhui, Man Slave Tie Kun and others, drove forward and galloped up a mountain ridge, and saw that the southern end of Zuojin Valley was less than a thousand steps wide and the mountains on both sides were thousands of yuan high. There are high cliffs towards the valley gate, as if a natural gateway is guarding the southern end of Tongbeifu.
At this time, not only were 20,000 or 30,000 rebel generals piled up in the narrow valley mouth, but also a lot of obstacles were set up. There were also figures on the high cliffs on both sides of the mountain ridge sloping toward the valley mouth.
Fan Cheng and his striker arrived outside Zuojin Valley for the first time. He tried to lead his troops to directly attack the rebels in Taniguchi, but before they got close to Taniguchi, falling rocks continued to fall on both sides of the dangerous ridge and high banks. Forced to retreat back, at this time guarding the periphery of the Xiakou to guard against the enemy.
"Chen Duwei, this rebel seems to attach great importance to us!"
Fan Cheng, surrounded by several guards, drove up to the mountain crest to meet Chen Hai, and said, pointing to the gorge a few miles away.
Chen Hai was silent. Logically speaking, the rebels should put them in their "pockets" so that they can wipe out more of the main force of the Xiyuan Army, instead of exposing their tracks and dispatching troops so hastily. Keep them out of Jingu.
The greatest possibility is that the rebels have realized the "unusual" of their soldiers.
How is this possible?
Generals of the Seventh Capital, more than Wanyu, have been training in Fujiaoling for half a year. Even the other generals of the Xiyuan Army who are also training in the Xiyuan will never think that the Seventh Capital is stronger than them. , Why do the rebels pay more attention to them?
Seeing Chen Hai sinking into thought, Fan Cheng asked again: "How are we going to fight next?"
Fan Cheng saw that Chen Hai only led the first and second battle battalions with two thousand soldiers and horses to rush outside the Xiakou~IndoMTL.com~ He hoped that he could temporarily take a rest on the relatively gentle **** outside the valley. The elites of the Ninth Great Battalion advanced to Taniguchi before launching a resolute offensive against the rebels.
The Seventh Capital rushed to the north. The Ninth Great Battalion was drawn into a long dragon on the 30-mile-long gorge. At the same time, it was also necessary to guard against arrows from the mountains on both sides, and the formation was a little loose.
At this time, Chen Haicai led the two battalions of generals and soldiers to form in Taniguchi. They didn't get any relief. Logically speaking, after the seventh capital's 10,000 soldiers have entered the gentle **** to rectify the formation, then consider attacking more safely. Some, but the spirit birds flying into the blue sky, you can see a large number of bandits with black scarves in the mountains on the two wings, quickly converging towards Zuojin Valley.
Obviously, the rebels did not expect their advancement speed to be so fast, they are seizing every minute and every second to gather forces to Zuojingu——
"You are now leading the attack on Xiling."
Chen Hai can’t wait for Zhao Rong and Tu Ziji to come from behind to join him. Now even if it takes an hour, the battle situation will have different evolutions, and once the rebels have assembled from the two wings mountains, even if they can attack Zuojingu will have to pay a high price, and it may lose the meaning of occupying Zuojingu.
He didn’t know why the rebels paid special attention to them. He didn’t know how the rebels knew the details of the 7th generals, but he was sure of one thing. Even the rebels were rushing to respond in Zuojin Valley at this time. There is also an opportunity to play fast.
Chen Hai directly ordered Fan Cheng to lead the elite soldiers of the Fan clan to attack from the relatively gentle Xiling on the left.
There is a high cliff on that mountain that is approaching Taniguchi, like a giant tiger with an open mouth swallowing the blood of the sky, ruthlessly swallowing the people and beasts that enter Zuojin Valley.
At this time, one or two thousand rebel soldiers were crowded on the high cliff. Throwing stones and wood could directly threaten the soldiers and horses attacking Taniguchi. Chen Hai asked Fan Cheng to lead his troops to defeat the more than one thousand rebels...
