The ancient pass of Linyu Great Wall in Lulong County, Beiping County, is the pass that must pass to the Central Plains into Liao. There has always been a praise that one man should be the pass and ten thousand men cannot open it.

However, since Chen Ke from Liaodong rebelled, Yang Guang was no longer at ease with the world's great pass. Thinking about the gunpowder weapons in Chen Kefu's hand, as well as the new city that is the fortress, could explode, and Linyu Pass was just a pile of dead objects accumulated by bricks and stones. This time, Yang Guang finally decided to conquer the Turks first. Although he transferred 100,000 troops from the Liao army and all the generals, in the end, Li Jing, the general of the Right Martial Guard, was in charge, and commanded a total of 150,000 troops to guard the pass, for fear that Chen Kefu would break through the pass and exit. []

Above the tall city of the pass, Li Jing looked at the distance outside the pass with a heavy armor.

When the weather is good, you can clearly see the Liaodong army stationed there.

"Oh!" Li Jing sighed.

A general in his thirty years old said, "Why should the general be worried? If the general guards this time, there are only 100,000 thieves in Liaodong, what else can they cause?" The young general who spoke was Li Jing's nephew.

His father was Xue Wanche, the fourth son of Xue Shixiong, the prefect of Zhuo County, and next to him were three generals of about age.

The three of them were Xue Wanche's brothers, Wan Shu, Wan Shu, and Wan Jun. These four brothers came from a family of military generals and had good martial arts skills. Among them, the 30-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-100-100-100-100-100-100-100-100-100-100-100-100-100-100-100-100-10

This time Xue Shixiong was summoned to Liaodong by Yang Guang, but the four brothers remained in Linyu Pass. Although the four brothers were young, the eldest and second among them were the fifth-rank Yingyang Lang General, and the third and fourth were even the fourth-rank Huya Lang General. The family of five generals was a family of military generals.

Li Jingjiu is in Hebei and is highly praised by the Hebei army. In addition to his disagreement with his Tiger General Luo Yi, the lieutenant generals and collegiate generals in Hebei are disrespectful. Looking at the fourth tiger of the Xue family, Li Jing smiled.

"You should take a closer look at the camps of the Liaodong Army outside the pass to see if there have been any changes in the past few days?"

The four tigers stared at the Liaodong Army camp in the distance in the morning light, trying to find out what changes were.

A sound of footsteps came, and a thick voice sounded, "Since three days ago, when the dawn of the day, a soldier would arrive on the east side of the Liaodong Army camp. It has been like this for three consecutive days. On the first day, the people who came were wearing the Mao-like flag. According to the flag, there should be about 10,000 people. Yesterday, the Li-like flag was also about 10,000. Just now, an army of about 20,000 people drove to the Liaodong Army camp, but the one who was fighting was Chen-like flag."

Hearing the interrupting voice, Li Jing frowned. He didn't have to look at the person who came, but he knew that it was Luo Yi, the general of the Hu Ben Lang under his tent. This subordinate was Li Jing's disliked the most. When he first arrived in Hebei, this guy was already his subordinate. After so many years, the two have been working together. However, their relationship was getting worse and worse. In the past year, Luo Yi even falsely accused him of rebellion to the emperor, which almost made him feel something wrong. This made Li Jing even dislike this rebellious subordinate even more.

However, although Luo Yi has a bad character and always plays against him, this guy is very capable in leading troops and is also very good at fighting. He has 5,000 cavalry subordinates, but there are 3,000 cavalrymen in Youzhou. It is precisely because he can fight and trains troops, and has good relations with many ministers in the court, and his intentional indulgence has made Luo Yi restrain Li Jing. Luo Yi is even more confident and does not take him as his direct superior seriously at all.

Although Luo Yi and Li Jing have a bad relationship, they have a good relationship with the Xue family. Xue Wanjun saw the two rivals standing together, afraid that they would fight, so he hurriedly said, "This Mao-character flag is likely to be Mao Yi, the general of the Liaodong Army, and the Chen-character flag means that Chen Pojun has arrived in person, but which one is the Li-character flag? It's not Li Benlei, right?"

Li Jing shook his head, "Recently, spies reported that Chen Pojun had just won the title of civil and military officials in Liaodong not long ago. Not only did he establish his own Shangshu Province, but he also created the Eight Guards General. This Maoqi is Mao Yi, the general of Longluowei, and Chen Pojun's number one confidant. However, the Liqi is not Li Benlei. According to investigation, Li Benlei has retreated to the second line. Although he continues to hold important positions, he no longer leads troops to fight. The newly arrived Liqi is Li Jing, the Mayi County Magistrate who defected to Liaodong with the prefect of Mayi Wang Rengong... Speaking of Wang Rengong, Li Jing sighed.

At that time, Wang Rengong was also in command of the army in Hebei. He and Li Jing, Xue Shixiong, Zhang Xutuo, Murong Sanzang, Yu Zhongwen, Xin Shixiong, Mai Tiezhang and others were very close, and their relationship was very good. But among the eight people that year, Murong Sanzang had died in the seventh year of Daye. Later, when he was conquering Liaodong, Shixiong and Mai Tiezhang died in Liaodong in the second conquest of Liaodong. Later, even Yu Zhongwen who returned to the capital could not be saved, and he was guilty of defeat and died. Two years ago, Zhang Xutuo also died in Liaodong. After all, among the eight tigers in the northern border that are still alive, only Wang Rengong, Li Jing and Xue Shixiong were left. But before, Wang Rengong was demoted to a Tao Xiaoxiao...

The prefect has now even betrayed Liaodong, which makes him a little unacceptable.

"The Liaodong Army had 100,000 soldiers outside this pass, and now Mao Yi and Li Jing have increased their troops. In addition, Chen Pojun came in person, so there were 130,000 soldiers outside this pass. What was Chen Pojun going to do? He had heard the news and knew that the court was going to conquer the Turks first. So he wanted to take this opportunity to grab Linyu Pass?" Xue Laosi said with some doubt.

Another young general on the side snorted coldly, "Isn't it just 130,000 troops? Not to mention that we have the danger of Linyu. Even if we don't rely on this heroic pass, can we still defeat Chen Pojun, a traitor, just by our 150,000 imperial army?"

Hearing the young general speak, another middle-aged general next to him hurriedly said, "Xing Yan, where is the turn of your conversation here, and you won't retreat."

Li Jing smiled and said, "Xingyan is just expressing his own opinion. Why should Brother Deben blame him?"

The brother Deben mentioned was the general of the Left Wu Guard. Huaiyuan stayed at Pei Renji, and Xingyan was naturally his son, Pei Xingyan. Pei Xingyan was known as the enemy of ten thousand people, and was extremely brave and the best among the new generation. The four tigers of the Xue family are also elites among young generals. The same background and similar positions make them full of open and secret struggles. Since the four tigers of the Xue family and the two heroes of the Pei family have been fighting openly and secretly for many times.

Compared to my father, their father is one of the generals of the Twelve Guards, and they are also from aristocratic families in terms of origin. They themselves are all fourth- and fifth-rank military generals, but in general, the Pei brothers are a little bit worse. They are four tigers and four people. They have only two brothers. The eldest Pei Xingjian also learns literature and is good at strategy. One-on-one fight, none of the four tigers is the opponent of Pei Xingyan, but if they really fight and fight, they will definitely not be able to beat the four brothers. So everyone usually just destroys each other.

Luo Yi was there afraid of being confused and said, "Xing Yan said it well, are we really afraid of Chen Pojun? According to me, why don't we go to the camp tonight while Chen Pojun has arrived?

Tonight, Chen Pojun was captured alive and beat Liaodong in one fell swoop. Then turn around and attack the Turks north and attack His Majesty's army in a split-road attack. Isn't this beautiful? It's better than the one we hold more than 100,000 troops now, but we can only watch the Liaodong army show its might in front of us every day, right?"

Li Jing frowned, "I am trusted by Your Majesty and granted the position of Marshal of the Liao marshal. That is the responsibility given to me by Your Majesty and the court.

And since you have been the commander of this commander, you will naturally have to obey this commander's orders. Before His Majesty defeated the Turks, when he did not receive new orders, no one will be allowed to make a mistake in attacking without authorization in the future, otherwise it will be handled according to military law."

After saying some stern words, the veterans and young players on the city stopped saying a word.

In fact, in my heart, everyone still felt that it was unsure of the Liaodong Army. Chen Kefu was able to destroy the Goguryeo country and defeat the four clan coalition forces with his own strength. This is not a false sense. Especially the gunpowder weapon in the hands of the Liaodong Army has long been circulated in the Great Sui army. I heard that the last time the Dongdu riot was rioted on the rainy night, Chen Kefu's subordinates broke into the palace with gunpowder and kidnapped the princess. Hundreds of thousands of imperial guards in Kyoto did not catch them, which shows how powerful this weapon is.

If the 100,000 troops were not transferred at this time, everyone would have more confidence. But now they have 150,000 troops, while the Liaodong army has 130,000 troops, which is not much different. If they give up on the Great Wall and take the initiative to attack, they really don’t have much confidence in winning.

Everyone stopped talking, just looking at the additional tent in the camp of the Chengdong Army outside the pass, and the large Chen-shaped banner floating high.

Pei Xingjian, who had not spoken, suddenly said, "The Liaodong Army has increased its troops for three consecutive days. According to information, the Liaodong Army now has at least 300,000 troops. If Chen Kefu continues to draw troops from various parts of Liaodong, what will we do then? With Chen Kefu's ability, not to mention 300,000, as long as he has 200,000 people, he will definitely take the initiative to attack. Especially when the imperial army is still being transferred to Hedong to prepare for a war with the Turks, he will definitely not miss this opportunity."

All the generals changed face to face. If Chen Kefu really assembled an army of 200,000, he would definitely not wait for the court to defeat the Turks first and then attack Liaodong. Once Chen Kefu attacked first, it would be an unknown number to be able to stop the 150,000 army of Linyu Pass.
