I’m The King

Chapter 748: : Drum horns continue to sound sharp (20)

Weishan Pass is an important pass guarding Langya County in West Liaoning County. As long as you guard the Pass, Langya, the rich land of fish and rice behind you, will be safe. It has been occupied by Donghu people many times, but because of the Yaoshan Pass, the Donghu people have never penetrated Langya and bypassed the mountain. For the Donghu people, the gain is not worth the loss. The hundreds of miles of mountainous areas are uninhabited. The Donghu people who are fighting and raising the war can't take any interest at all.

Whenever the Yan Kingdom became stronger, the army would come back from the mountain, trying to regain the Liaoxi County, and even drove the Donghu people back to their home. The war lasted for many years, until Zhang Shouyue appeared. Poor young generals, starting from leading dozens of people as King of the Mountains to oppose the rule of the Donghu people, and cooperating with the Yan army who was out of the mountain pass at that time. After wars, Zhang Shouyue began to rise and eventually expelled the Donghu people from western Liaoning. , Brought Liaoxi County back to the Kingdom of Yan, and Zhang Shouyue became the first civilian county guard in the history of Yan Kingdom, and Zhang Shouyue also became the first civilian county guard in the history of Yan Kingdom, and he was there for decades. .

Because Liaoxi County was taken back, Lingshan Pass lost its previous function. In the following decades, it was gradually abandoned. At its most desolate time, only dozens of soldiers and a tax collector were stationed. The only function was Collect taxes and fees from merchants who pass through here.

It wasn't until Gao Yuan's strong rise and distance from the Yan Kingdom Court and Hu Yanchao stationed in Langya County that Yaoshan Pass received unprecedented attention, but this time, it was not to defend against Donghu people, but to guard against Gao Yuan.

After several years of repairs, the dilapidated Lingshan Pass has regained the brilliance of resisting the Donghu people back then. The old and new bricks of the ten-meter-high city wall are mottled, and the new bricks are just wrapped up in the past two years and are fluttering. Banners, knives and guns, energetic soldiers. Give new life to this long-lost old city.

This is an obstacle that the Eastern Expeditionary Army must break to enter Langya County, and Hu Yan is supernaturally aware of this, so here he puts his own Titan Wu Bo, and all the soldiers under his control are him at the beginning. Brought out the old soldiers from Liaoning Wei, and defended the Xiaoshan Pass, they were able to resist the conquest of the Eastern Army outside Langya County.

Zhang Xi was covered with branches and grass, quietly lying behind a bush, staring at the towering Lingshan Pass in the distance. He knows that it will not take long before this place will become a battlefield of flesh and blood. As a scout, he has been in and out of this area frequently for the past two years. It can be said that he has watched the Laoshan Pass from a dilapidated place to what it is now. With this appearance, if you want to build such a closed city, I am afraid the loss will not be small. There are steep mountains on both sides of the Xiaoshan Pass. If you want to attack the Xiaoshan Pass, you have to enter from a narrow valley. And now, Wu Bo, the gatekeeper of Lingshan, has built some more gates in the canyon. Just opening up this canyon is not a simple matter.

Seeing these, he couldn't help but feel a little itchy.

The sound of the golden drum in the far distance of Guancheng. He awakened Zhang Xi and took a deep breath. He was just a scout, leading the soldiers to fight. That should be something the leading generals think about. He can’t control it, and he has no ability to manage it. It's enough to do your own thing.

He moved his gaze back again, staring in the direction he came.

In the past ten or so days, the scouts of the Eastern Army have been chasing the spy Yan Lingwei who killed their three companions in this mountainous area. In this revenge chase, the scouts of both sides broke out unprecedentedly. In the fierce battle, in the end, the Zhengdong Army won the final victory. The Yan Army scouts completely withdrew from this area, but Zhang Xi and the others did not find the Yan Lingwei detective.

Zhang Xi is convinced that this person must have not walked out of this area, because the expeditionary army scouts must be far more familiar with this area than this person. They walked on the shortest and most direct path. People cannot be faster than them.

The other comrades were still searching the back, but Zhang Xi went straight to the Xiaoshan Pass. At this time, he was only mile away from the Yan Jun’s first pass in the canyon. If that spy could avoid his own Companion, then he will definitely appear here, not elsewhere.

Regardless of the degree of hostility between the two sides, Zhang Xi still admires this guy for being able to sustain him under the search and pursuit of so many scouts. If you can catch him, you should really ask his first and last name, but if you really let him come here, I'm afraid I don't have the opportunity and time to interrogate him.

Between the woods where there is nowhere, the startling bird flew up, Zhang Xi suddenly lifted his spirits and stared at the place with wide eyes. After a while, there was a rush of footsteps, and a gray figure rushed out of the woods towards The Guan Qiang rushed over here, with a feather arrow stuck in his back, looking at the man, Zhang Xi let out a long sigh, and finally saw him. He clenched the handle of the knife. At this time, behind the man, several scouts of the Eastern Army also appeared. They did not care about the defenders of the Weishan Pass. They were carrying the knife and desperately Chasing the figure in front of him.

After more than ten days, they finally caught the trail of this man and injured him. Now even if the Yan Luo Temple is in front, they will move forward bravely.

Xu Yanmao was exhausted. For more than ten days, he felt as if he had stabbed a hornet's nest. The scouts of the Eastern Army were chasing his trail like a wind lunatic. If it were an ordinary soldier, he would naturally get rid of his opponent easily. But the problem is that the opponent is the scout who is best at tracking and reconnaissance.

He didn’t have time to sleep well, and he didn’t have time to eat a full meal. Most of the day was spent on fleeing for his life. Today, he finally saw the wall of Xiaoshan Pass, but it was in him. When the mind was slightly relaxed, the lingering East Army scouts immediately rushed forward.

A fight injured a few of them, but he also received an arrow. Finally, he finally rushed out of the opponent's encirclement, and saw the soldiers on the wall and the soldiers on the wall in the valley ahead, the soldiers of Dayan.

"Help, help!" He opened his hands and waved desperately at the soldiers on the front wall, and howled loudly. As long as the soldiers inside the wall rushed out, the Zhengdong Army scouts chasing after him could only escape. , His fate is also picked back.

Within the canyon, there are three barrier walls. Wu He is the commander of these three barrier walls. In this canyon, there are a total of 1,000 soldiers, and they are the first line of defense at Weishan Pass. Today, Wu Hyuk happened to be patrolling on the first barrier wall.

Hearing the cry for help coming from the opposite distance, I saw a man wearing the costume of the Eastern Army rushing towards here, and behind him, there were several soldiers of the Eastern Army carrying knives, murdering. Chase it over.

"Crafting the city gate?" Wu He felt a little absurd. There are too few people, right? Moreover, these are just three simple walls in the canyon, and General Wu didn't expect to be able to stop the opponent for long. Even if it was thrown to the opponent, it wouldn't be a big deal. The opponent was still boring to play any tricks.

"Help, I am Yan Lingwei Xu Yanmao." The man yelled as he ran, and Wu He heard his yelling clearly this time. The name Xu Yanmao is unfamiliar to most Yan Jun, but Wu He just knows such a person, Xu Yanmao, a former senior official of Yan Lingwei, was eaten up because of escorting Ye Xiang. He was assigned to Langya, and later threw him to Liaoxi County.

He has not heard from him for two years, and all the senior military officers in Langya believe that such a person has long been rotten to death in the prison of the Liaoxi County Supervisory Office.

But now, he has actually returned. Such a person, if he returns, will definitely bring extremely important information. "Quickly, get out and save him."

After Wu He choked, he was afraid of pulling out the knife, so he rushed under the wall.

When the door closed and opened, Wu He rushed out. Just a few steps out, Wu He suddenly stopped. In his line of sight, the expression on Xu Yanmao's face was clear, but when he rushed through a bush, A large group of thatch behind the bushes suddenly flew up, and a cyan human smoke jumped out and appeared behind Xu Yanmao, a cold light flashed in his hand, and a short dagger plunged deeply into Xu Yanmao's side.

Xu Yanmao's smile froze on his face.

Zhang Xi drew his sword and quickly backed away. As a veteran scout, he knew that this knife had cut off all the vitality of his opponent. He quickly threw away all the disguise on his body, turned and ran.

"Run!" He yelled at the stunned East Army scouts, because at this time, Wu He finally came over, and in the roar, he led dozens of soldiers toward them.

"Quickly, get into the woods!" Several scouts turned and ran.

Wu He stopped by Xu Yanmao's side. He slowly squatted down and helped Xu Yanmao up, "General Xu." He cried softly.

The knife pierced under the fright, Wu He only glanced at him and knew it was not saved. Xu Yanmao stared at him, trying to say something, but when his lips moved, a lot of blood poured out of his mouth. Looking at Wu Hyuk, there was a deep sadness in his eyes.

He learned a lot of the secrets of the Eastern Army, and knew the number and route of the Eastern Army. In addition to the Weishan Pass, there was another force that detoured hundreds of miles in the mountainous area, entered a smoke-free area, and attacked Xinxiang, but this Everything, now he can't say a word.

His hands were raised high and suddenly dropped. Xu Yanmao was deeply unwilling, his head tilted, and he died like this. (To be continued...)
