Sign In a Lu Bu Fengxian at the Beginning

Chapter 231: Leaving the Jade Gate in the West

Outside Yumen Pass.

While Lu Bu led his army to fight Beidi, Huo Qubing led the Xiliang army to the west and entered the land outside the pass.

Like Lu Bu and others, the first thing Huo Qubing did after leading his army out of the border was to sweep away some tribes outside Xirong.

However, Xirong did not use peripheral tribes as bait like Beidi did.

Instead, as soon as Xirong learned that Zhou Dynasty was sending troops outside the pass, it promptly notified the tribes outside Xirong and asked them to retreat towards the inner perimeter.

However, some tribes did not retreat in time, and eventually became the victims of the Zhou army.

In a tribe, the Xiliang army settled here.

In the big tent.

The person sitting on the main seat was Zhang Liao, not Huo Qubing.

Sitting below were Hua Xiong, Dong Jun, Song Xian, Cheng Lian and other generals.

"General Zhang, it's still bright today, so we're setting up camp. Isn't it a little early?"

"We have been out of seclusion for two days, but the army has only traveled a hundred miles. Is this too slow?"

Dong Jun looked at Zhang Liao in the main seat with confusion.

Since the army left the customs, they have marched hundreds of miles in two days. This speed can no longer be described as slow.

Especially since it was still broad daylight, it was not a problem to march for dozens of miles, but Zhang Liao ordered the camp to be set up.

This made Dong Jun very puzzled.

Didn't they send troops outside the pass to annihilate Xirong?

No matter how you look at Zhang Liao's marching posture, it seems that he is deliberately delaying the speed of his march.

Several other generals also looked at Zhang Liao in confusion. They all saw that Zhang Liao was deliberately delaying the march.

But what surprised them the most was where Huo Qubing and Zhao Yun had gone.

After the army left the border, Huo Qubing handed over the power of the army to Zhang Liao. Huo Qubing, Zhao Yun and Baima Yicong disappeared without a trace.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Liao glanced at Dong Jun, then glanced at the other generals and said, "You should have noticed that this general is deliberately slowing down the march."

"This is actually all arranged by General Huo. General Huo asked us not to march in a hurry, but to attract the attention of the Xirong army first."

Zhang Liao said.

General Huo's arrangement?

Hearing Zhang Liao's words, Dong Jun and Hua Xiong frowned.

Some people don't understand, what is Huo Qubing's intention of making this arrangement?

"General Zhang, what kind of arrangements does Huo Shuai have?"

"Huo Shuai and General Zhao have disappeared since they left the customs. Where did Huo Shuai and General Zhao go?"

Hua Xiong looked at Zhang Liao and couldn't help but ask.

Dong Jun and others also looked at Zhang Liao curiously.

They were all curious about what kind of arrangements Huo Qubing had and where he went.

Facing the curious looks of Hua Xiong and Dong Jun, Zhang Liao pondered for a moment and said, "General Huo has gone to Xirong City. General Huo will destroy Xirong City with a lightning battle."

"Once the King of Xirong's city is defeated, the army of Xirong will be defeated without attacking."

"I didn't tell you before because I was afraid that the Xirong thieves would find out about General Huo's arrangement."

"Now, General Huo and the others are probably approaching Xirong King City."

Zhang Liao no longer concealed the whereabouts of Huo Qubing and Zhao Yun, but revealed the whereabouts of Huo Qubing and Zhao Yun.

What?

Huo Shuai went to Xirong Royal City?

When Dong Jun and others heard this, their faces were all shocked.

"General Zhang, Huo Shuai and the others only brought 3,000 cavalry to the King's City of Xirong. Isn't this too risky?"

Dong Jun said solemnly.

You know, Xirong King City is the base camp of the Xirong alien race, and its defense is definitely not weak.

Huo Qubing and the others only brought three thousand white horse followers, and it would not be easy to destroy the Xirong King's city like lightning.

If something unexpected happened, Huo Qubing and the others would be trapped in a tight siege within Xirong, and the consequences would be disastrous.

Zhang Liao nodded; "It's a bit risky, but this is the strategy formulated by General Huo."

"However, Baima Yicong is a rare elite cavalry, and with General Zhao as the strong leader, a lightning-fast raid on the King's City of Xirong should not be a big problem."

Zhang Liao said thoughtfully.

Just when Zhang Liao, Hua Xiong, and Dong Jun were telling Huo Qubing and Zhao Yun where they were going, Huo Qubing and Zhao Yun were quietly running towards Xirong King City with Baima Yicong.

"General Huo, we can arrive at Xirong King's City tomorrow."

"It's getting late now, and there's a valley in front of us. Shouldn't we take a rest?"

A Dongchang spy wearing Xirong clothing said to Huo Qubing.

Huo Qubing and Zhao Yun, with their white horses, were able to move towards Xirong Royal City quietly along the way, relying on the guidance of the Dongchang spies.

If there were no Dongchang spies to lead the way, it would be difficult for Huo Qubing and Zhao Yun to hide this from Xirong's eyes and ears.

"That's fine."

"I've been traveling for two days in a row, it's time to take a good rest."

"There will be a battle waiting tomorrow."

Huo Qubing nodded, reined in the galloping horse, and slowed down.

"Lead the way!"

Huo Qubing said something to the Dongchang spies.

Dongchang's spies nodded, rode forward, and led Huo Qubing, Zhao Yun and the others into a small valley.

"Dismount and rest."

After entering the valley, Huo Qubing gave an order.

The three thousand white horses all dismounted and began to rest.

But Huo Qubing, Zhao Yun and the Dongchang spy were gathered together.

Huo Qubing glanced at the Dongchang spy and asked, "What's the situation in Xirong's royal city now? How many soldiers and horses do they have? What's the status of the royal city's defense?"

Know yourself and your enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger.

Although Huo Qubing wanted to launch a blitzkrieg raid on Xirong Royal City, he still had to understand it in advance.

"The atmosphere in Xirong King City is a bit tense right now, and there are not many defensive troops."

"Most of Xirong's soldiers and horses have been transferred to the Gobi Desert to stop our Zhou army."

"This is the basic terrain of Xirong King City, and some important defenses are marked out."

"General Huo, take a look!"

The Dongchang spy took out a drawing and handed it to Huo Qubing.

Huo Qubing took the drawings and started studying them with Zhao Yun.

Southern Xinjiang.

Outside the south gate.

There are many Nanman armies.

Inside the big tent.

The Barbarian King sat on the main seat with a majestic look.

Sitting below were nine handsome men.

The Barbarian King glanced at the nine barbarian commanders below, and said in a solemn voice: "We, the barbarians, have mobilized all the barbarian troops to attack Nanmen Pass this time. In addition to cooperating with Xirong and Beidi, it is also for my old barbarian priest and thirty Revenge for the barbarian warriors who were burned to death in the Red Cliff Forest."

"The old priest of my barbarian tribe cannot die in vain, and the three hundred thousand warriors of my barbarian tribe cannot die in vain. We will make Dazhou pay the price."

"This time the Great Zhou Dynasty sent troops outside the pass and came to Xirong and Beidi. On the surface, it doesn't seem to have much to do with our barbarians."

"But in fact, you should know in your heart that this is Dazhou's revenge for our previous four tribes' joint attack on Dazhou."

"If the Great Zhou annihilates Xirong and Beidi, then it will be my barbarian's turn next."

"So, this is why my king agreed to Xirong and Beidi's attack on Nanmen Pass and was willing to share the pressure of the Great Zhou Dynasty with them."

"We barbarians are avenging the 300,000 barbarian warriors before, and we are also saving ourselves as barbarians."

The Barbarian King's voice was a little low.

Previously, the 300,000 barbarian troops that entered the pass were completely annihilated in Great Zhou, and even his barbarian priests and a barbarian commander were killed in the battle.

This was a painful blow to the barbarians.

Originally, the Barbarian King thought that he would have no chance to avenge the 300,000 Southern Barbarian warriors who had been wiped out by his entire Southern Barbarian army in a short period of time.

But unexpectedly, messengers from Xirong and Beidi came to the southern barbarians and delivered news that shocked even the barbarian kings.

The Great Zhou Dynasty sent troops outside the pass, and those fighting on two fronts had to deal with Xirong and Beidi.

At this moment, Barbarian King realized that the opportunity had come.

The Great Zhou Dynasty had used all its troops to deal with Xirong and Beidi, so wouldn't the Southern Barbarians take the opportunity to attack the Great Zhou Dynasty?

This is, firstly, to avenge the 300,000 Nanman warriors who were wiped out before, and secondly, to protect themselves.

The Barbarian King knew in his heart that once the Great Zhou Dynasty destroyed Xirong and Beidi, the Great Zhou Dynasty would definitely turn around and deal with his barbarian tribe.

Therefore, after receiving letters of request for help from Xirong and Beidi, the Barbarian King agreed to the conditions of Xirong and Beidi, mobilized all his troops, and attacked Nanmen Pass.

Attract the troops of the Zhou Dynasty to Xirong and Beidi to share the pressure.

"What the king said is that once the Great Zhou annihilates Xirong and Beidi, then the Great Zhou will definitely turn around and deal with our Southern Barbarians."

"And it's hard for the barbarians to resist the Great Zhou."

"Now, the Great Zhou Dynasty sends troops outside the pass to fight on two fronts against Xirong and Beidi."

"Therefore, we, the barbarians, must not let the Zhou Dynasty destroy Xirong and Beidi, and we should try our best to share the pressure of the Zhou Dynasty with them."

"Otherwise, our barbarian tribe will also be in danger."

A handsome man nodded and said calmly.

"That's right, now we, the barbarians, have mobilized all their forces and marched to the south gate."

"We will attack Nanmen Pass with all our strength tomorrow."

"Once the Nanmen Pass is breached, the Zhennan Army will be unable to withstand our barbarian army and will definitely ask for help from the Zhou Dynasty."

"At that time, the Zhou court can only mobilize back some of the troops that left the border to deal with Xirong and Beidi."

"In this way, the pressure will be shared between Xirong and Beidi."

Another handsome man spoke.

Just when the Barbarian King and several barbarian commanders were discussing the attack on Nanmen Pass.

The south gate is closed and closed on the wall.

The patron kings Zhou Zhan and Zhou Yu stood side by side and looked at the Nanman army standing outside the pass.

"These damn barbarians actually dare to invade my Nanmen Pass."

"You're really looking for death."

The backer king Zhou Zhan looked at the large army of southern barbarians outside the pass and said with a somewhat cold face.

"The southern barbarians must have received news from Xirong and Beidi, and knew that I, the Great Zhou Dynasty, had sent troops outside the pass to deal with Xirong and Beidi."

"That's why we gathered a large army and marched outside my south gate."

"This Nanman wants to take advantage of the situation and rob him!"

Zhou Yu looked at the Nanman army outside the pass and said.

Originally, Zhou Yu and his patron Wang were both in Zhennan City, busy with some matters concerning the Zhennan Army.

But who would have thought that Taishi Ci, who was stationed at Nanmen Pass, suddenly received news that the Nanman army had invaded Nanmen Pass.

Zhou Yu and the patron king immediately rushed to Nanmen Pass with the Zhennan Army.

"Father, Governor Zhou."

"This barbarian army seems to have a lot of strength, at least several times that of our Zhennan Army."

"Should we ask the court for help?"

Next to him, Zhou Yi looked at the densely packed Nanman army outside the pass and asked the patron kings Zhou Zhan and Zhou Yu with a solemn expression.

The Zhennan Army suffered heavy casualties in the previous battle, almost to the point of breaking their muscles and bones.

Of the 300,000 Zhennan Army, only 100,000 soldiers and horses remained.

Even after these days of recruitment, there was not much recruitment.

In addition, soldiers and horses are required to be stationed in other places in the cities in southern Xinjiang. It can be said that the number of troops that can be used to close the south gate is less than 100,000.

But looking at the Nanman army outside the pass, it is definitely more powerful than the previous 300,000 Nanman army.

With such a disparity in strength, without support, the South Gate Pass would be a bit dangerous.

Zhou Yu shook his head; "We don't need it yet. Even if the Nanman's troops are several times ours, we still have Xiongguan in our hands."

"The Southern Barbarians' military strength doesn't have much of an advantage."

"Besides, General Lu is now leading his army from Yanmen to the north, and General Huo is leading his army to the west from Yumen."

"The imperial court's military strength is also stretched thin."

Zhou Yu said.

With Xiongguan in hand, even with several times more troops, Zhou Yu can temporarily block it.

As long as the southern barbarian army is blocked for a while, after the battle between Xirong and Beidi comes to an end, the southern barbarian army will not be enough to hold on.

The patron king Zhou Zhan also nodded in agreement; "Zhou Yu is right. Now the imperial troops are out of two passes, and the main battlefields are at Xirong and Beidi."

"Our main focus here is defense. With the southern gate closed, we only need to delay the attack of the southern barbarian army."

royal palace.

The Hall of Nourishing Heart.

Cao Zhengchun hurriedly walked into the Yangxin Hall with a piece of news.

"Your Majesty, there is news from outside Yanmen Pass."

"General Lu fought against the Beidi army at Luofengpo, beheaded the Beidi king and defeated the Beidi army."

Cao Zhengchun immediately presented the news in his hand to Zhou Chen.

"oh!"

Zhou Chen was shocked and immediately took the news from Cao Zhengchun's hand.

Opened it and glanced at it.

The content of the message is not much, only a few words.

But these few words made Zhou Chen rarely laugh.

"Hahaha, okay."

"Once the King of Beidi dies and the army of Beidi is defeated, the overall situation of Beidi is decided."

"There is no suspense about the outcome of Beidi."

Zhou Chen said with a laugh.

Zhou Chen really didn't expect that Lu Bu would be the one to get results first.

Originally, Zhou Chen thought that Huo Qubing would be the first to get the results!

Lu Bu gave him a surprise.

After killing the King of Beidi and defeating the Beidi army, Beidi would become a piece of loose sand and no longer able to withstand the sweep of his Zhou army.

It is only a matter of time to kill Beidi.

"Is there any news from outside Yumen Pass?"

Zhou Chen put down the message in his hand, looked at Cao Zhengchun and asked again.

Cao Zhengchun shook his head; "Not yet."

Zhou Chen pondered for a while; "If there is any news about Huo Qubing, send it to me immediately."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Cao Zhengchun bowed.
