When Chu Huan was ready to attack Yunshan, Dingwu of Hexi was staring at the east.

According to the frontline battle report, the Liaodong people had begun to enter the Yanshan area and began to launch offensives on various strongholds in Yanshan.

The Liaodong Iron Cavalry is the best in the world and is famous, but Liaodong is not just the Iron Cavalry. It launches an offensive against Yanshan, and the brave and good fighting Liaodong Iron Cavalry cannot play a role at all.

There is Yanshan Mountain between Liaodong and Hexi, and Yanshan Mountain spans two paths, but most of them are in Hexi.

Feng Yuanpo had a different ambition at the time, so he had secretly sent people to build fortifications in key points in Yanshan. His intention was to prevent people from Liaodong from crossing Yanshan and entering Hexi one day.

The Yanshan Mountains are rolling and undulating, but it is different from the Beiling Mountains that block the northwest.

To pass through the Beiling Mountains, there is only one road in Xiguguan, otherwise you will have to climb the mountain. For the army, crossing the Beiling Mountains is of course impossible.

Although the Yanshan Mountains are continuous for hundreds of miles, there are indeed roads in the mountains, and there are more than one road.

But these roads, like long snakes, meander and circle in the mountains, and the roads are extremely narrow, with cliffs on both sides. As long as the ambush is set up on both sides of the road, it is almost impossible to pass.

The Hexi Army had already controlled all roads in the mountains and strictly prevented the Liaodong cavalry from passing through the mountain path.

Not only did they build barriers with stones in the middle of each road, but they also smashed many huge rocks from the mountain to seal the mountain road.

There are only three roads for Liaodong cavalry to enter Hexi. One is to detour the Great Grassland of Mobei. The Liaodong army and the Yi barbarians have many battles. Moreover, now the Yi barbarians surrender to Hexi, so it is naturally impossible for the Liaodong army to pass by. If Liaodong wants to pass through the territory of the Yi barbarians, it will inevitably go through hard and bloody battles. Even if the Yi barbarian troops eventually defeat the Yi barbarian troops, it will inevitably suffer heavy losses. What's more, the logistics supply line will become extremely long and with the power of Liaodong, it is impossible to bear it.

The second is to enter the Hebei region through Fuhai, then go north through Hujin Road, and then enter the Hexi region. Of course, the Qingtian King of Hebei could not allow the Liaodong Army to enter its territory.

Although the Blue Heaven King failed in the Battle of Fuhai, it was deeply rooted in Hebei Road. It was naturally more expensive for the Liaodong Army to pass through Hebei than the price they paid directly through Yanshan.

Therefore, the Liaodong Army had no choice but to cross Yanshan Mountain.

The Hexi Army also knew very well that Liaodong was strong and strong. Without the Yanshan barrier, the current strength of the Hexi Army would not be enough to resist the Liaodong people. Therefore, from the very beginning, the Hexi Army placed the battlefield of the decisive battle with the Liaodong Army in Yanshan.

As long as the Yanshan Mountain is defended so that the Liaodong people cannot pass through, the Hexi Army will be the final winner. However, once the Yanshan Mountains are occupied by the Liaodong Army, it almost indicates that the general situation in Hexi is destined.

The chief general of the Hexi Army stationed in Yanshan was Wenpu personally selected by Dingwu. This person was originally a lieutenant of the Royal Guards, and his status in the Guards was second only to Xuanyuan Shao.

If Xuanyuan Shao became the commander of the Guards because of his family background and his loyal appreciation of him, then Wenpu was able to become the second-ranked figure of the Guards entirely because of his former military achievements and strength.

Wenpu was a veteran who followed Wang Yuan to fight the country and had made countless military achievements. He was unable to be called the Imperial General alongside Feng Hanxiao and others, just because he was best at defense rather than attack. All four generals were conquering cities and territories. However, Wenpu often commanded defensive wars during many years of war, so he was not as dazzling as the four generals.

However, in terms of his defensive command ability, the four generals also highly praised Wen Pu.

It is precisely because of this that he was appointed by the emperor as the Sir Almighty Guard.

The Royal Guards' responsibilities were originally to protect the imperial city. From the beginning, they belonged to a defensive army. With this defensive general, they naturally had to rely on their talents.

It was precisely because of the talent of Chinese Wenpu that Dingwu handed over Yanshan defense to Wenpu.

With Wenpu as the main general of the Eastern Front, the defense of the Hexi Army in Yanshan was almost three-dimensional. Whether it was the valley on the mountain or in the steep places, strongholds would be set up, and several roads could be passed through. Not only were the roads blocked by huge stones, but there were also barriers every other section. The Liaodong Army had to pass through such a defense, and the cavalry was completely useless. In addition to cavalry, they also had a huge infantry army.

The Liaodong Army is known as one hundred thousand cavalry, but it is full of plans. In fact, the cavalry is only more than fifty thousand. However, with tens of thousands of infantry, the 100,000 army is not an exaggeration.

Although the Liaodong Army's attack on Hexi was suddenly, the method was very appropriate. They recruited a large number of mountain people and organized them into the army. In just a short period of time, there were no less than 10,000 mountain people.

These mountain citizens will serve as vanguard troops and cooperate with the Liaodong infantry to remove all the strongholds in Yanshan.

The Liaodong Army's tactics were very clear. With soldiers composed of mountain citizens as the leader, the responsibility of all infantry was to open a passage for the Liaodong cavalry. Before controlling Yanshan, the Liaodong cavalry could only be on guard.

Dingwu received the battle report for several consecutive days, but his mood was extremely solemn.

Although the Liaodong Army suffered heavy casualties and did not advance much in Yanshan, the other party's aura of not considering its own casualties still surprised Dingwu.

The Liaodong Army's fighting spirit is obviously extremely firm. According to the military newspaper, the Liaodong Army will lose at least a thousand people every day, which is undoubtedly an extremely huge number. Although Dingwu knew that sometimes the generals in front would deliberately exaggerate the number of casualties in the enemy to show their military achievements, even so, the Liaodong Army suffered heavy losses but there would never be any falsehood.

Of course, Dingwu didn't know that the King of Han ordered the Liaodong Army to attack with all his might at all costs and to attack Wuping Prefecture in Hexi. The Liaodong Army has always respected Chixin as a god. With the military order of Chixin, no one dared to slack off.

It is precisely because of this that the performance of the Liaodong Army surprised him for Dingwu, who was quite familiar with the Red Refining Electricity.

It is true that Chi Liandian is brave and good at fighting, and it is true that she is as brave as a tiger on the battlefield. However, Dingwu knew that Chi Liandian was not a desperate person, nor was she a general who regarded the lives of soldiers as bad as grass.

In fact, Chi Liandian has always cherished the soldiers under his command very much, and even often ate and sleep with ordinary soldiers on weekdays, so he was deeply respected by the soldiers under his command.

In Dingwu's view, the Liaodong Army suddenly gathered in Yanshan and launched an offensive against Hexi, which was a bit hasty, which did not seem to be in line with Chi Liandian's temperament. Now the Liaodong Army is launching a crazily attack without hesitation of casualties. With nearly a thousand people killed in battle every day, they are still continuing to attack. This is even a bit crazy. Chi Liandian is a wise person and should have more choices.

But no matter what, the war in Yanshan was extremely fierce, but Dingwu was already a little restless.

He knew very well that although Yanshan's defense had been prepared since Feng Yuanpo, it was not a solid wall. The Liaodong Army's crazy attack had certainly put a lot of psychological pressure on the Hexi Army. He was not sure that Yanshan could really withstand the Liaodong people.

He now hopes that Chen Keqiu's trip to Goryeo can really play a role.

Chen Keqiu had already set out for Goryeo. According to the days, if everything goes well, he should have arrived in Goryeo. If Chen Keqiu could really convince the Goryeo people to launch an offensive against Liaodong from the east, then the Liaodong army would naturally draw troops from Yanshan to deal with the Goryeo people. In this way, the pressure on Hexi would be greatly reduced.

But he also knew that although the Goryeo people were warlike, they were not a group of fools. If they were not sure of victory, the Goryeo people would never dare to send troops easily. After all, the Goryeo people were heartbroken by Chi Lian LED, and it was not a matter of a few words that would make them bold in the face of Chi Lian Electric.

The battle situation in Yanshan has already made Dingwu unable to sleep or eat, and the complaint from the West Mountain just now made Dingwu furious.

He was an extremely tolerant person who could restrain his emotions, but Zhou Ting, the Marquis of Changling, presented Feng Polu's memorials, and Dingwu just glanced at them and broke them into pieces.

"Super stupid!" Dingwu's face was twisted and deformed. "The enemy is in front of him, but they are killing each other. Qiao Mingtang, the bastard, and Feng Polu, are even more stupid pigs!" Dingwu, who rarely gets angry, was really angry this time. The torn pieces fell to the ground, and his hands were trembling.

Zhou Ting had naturally read the memorial beforehand, and his expression was so serious. When he saw Dingwu, he was so angry that he felt so angry, but he was not easy to speak for a while.

"I wrote an order and told Feng Polu to return to Hexi quickly. I want to ask him in person why such a change happened?" Dingwu clenched his fists, "I did not issue an order to punish him. Why did he still make trouble?"

Seeing that Dingwu had lost his composure, Zhou Ting hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, "Master, it is not the time to hold people accountable. Chu Huan may attack Yunshan at any time. Now Qiao Mingtang is fleeing for fear of crime. Only Feng Polu can guard Yunshan. When Feng Polu is recalled at this time, Yunshan will have no leader!"

Dingwu was stunned. When he heard Zhou Ting say this, he calmed down and pondered for a moment, and finally said, "Marquis Changling, you have read the Zhezi. What Feng Polu said in the Zhezi, do you think is true or false? Qiao Mingtang really wants to kill him, intending to rebel?"

Zhou Ting thought for a while before saying, "Reporting to the emperor, what the editor said should not be all the facts, but it is not all fabricated. Feng Polu said in the memorial that Qiao Mingtang set up a Hongmen Banquet and arranged assassin to assassin to assassinate him. This may not be false, but in the opinion of the minister, Feng Polu did not tell the truth completely. He did not mention that he had made preparations in advance, otherwise if he had no idea, Feng Polu would never leave alive with Qiao Mingtang's actions, but instead made Qiao Mingtang escape fearful of his crime."

Dingwu pondered slightly before slowly saying: "Marquis Changling, is it possible that the comments reported on the memorial were all fabricated by Feng Polu. Qiao Mingtang had no rebellion. Is it Feng Polu who wanted to rebel?"
