Chapter 329 Ning Wu Pass

The sky gradually became dark, and the evening breeze blew in Yanmen Mountain, and the surroundings were a little cold.

At this moment, at the top of a small hill, Wanyan Zongwang was standing there looking at Yanmen Pass.

Wanyan Loushi stood in front of Wanyan Zongwang. He looked very embarrassed now, his body was covered in dust, his face was still blood, and there was a wound on his arm. Today during the day, Wanyan Loushi personally led his troops to attack Yanmen Pass. He was the ever-winning general among the Jurchens and had extremely strong force. However, even under his leadership, the Jurchens still found it difficult to capture Yanmen Pass.

Yanmen Pass stands in the canyon and looks so strong that it seems like it will never be able to conquer it!

"The black clouds are pressing against the city and the light of armor is about to destroy it, and the golden scales are opened to the sun! This is a poem by the Han Dynasty Li He to describe Yanmen Pass! This Yanmen Pass is indeed extraordinary. From the end of February to now, we have used more and more troops, but now we only have corpses from one place, and we cannot capture Yanmen Pass at all! We did not expect the Han people to suddenly attack Datong and occupy Yanmen! If we had known it before, we would have sent people to occupy the place first, and we would not have to trouble like this now!" Wanyan Zongwang said.

"Hmph! No one would have thought that these despicable Han people would come from the north!" Wanyan Loushi gritted his teeth.

"In the early years of the Song Dynasty, the Jin Dao Yang Wudi resisted the Liao people here, making it difficult for hundreds of thousands of Liao troops to move south from here! Now we are also blocked here! However, we are blocked in the south." Wanyan Zongwang said.

"Second Prince, is there no other way? Do we need to continue to mobilize troops from Puzhou and Guanshan! Our 200,000 troops have come here, but I don't believe that I can't defeat this mere Yanmen Pass!" Wanyan Loushi looked at Yanmen Pass in the distance and said fiercely.

"No need!" Wanyan Zong said.

"No?" Wanyan Loushi was stunned.

"Let's wait a little longer! The 300,000 troops from Huining Prefecture in the north are about to move south! At that time, we will attack on both sides, and the Han people will only die!" Wanyan Zongwang said.

"Yes! These stupid Han people! They thought that after conquering Datong and Yanmen Pass and other places, we had to go north, and their dangers in Guanshan could be alleviated! But they didn't know that we still had hundreds of thousands of troops to go south. At that time, they would lose their troops and be even more unable to defend Guanshan! Han people are indeed the stupidest race in the world!" Wanyan Loushi sneered.

"However, we can't just stay here! It seems that it's not enough to attack Yanmen Pass now. It's too strong and difficult to defeat it! In this way, you will lead a 50,000 army west tomorrow." Wanyan Zong said.

"Going west?" Wanyan Loushi said in surprise.

"Yes, you go and attack Ningwu Pass! If we can conquer Ningwu Pass, we can go north from Ningwu Pass. At that time, the Yanmen Pass would be insignificant. At this time, the Han people would definitely not be prepared for Ningwu Pass." Wanyan Zong said.

"Okay!" Wanyan Loushi nodded.

*******

Late at night on that day, Wanyan Loushi fell asleep immediately after lying down.

These days, he has been leading troops to fight, and he is really exhausted.

I had no dreams all night, and the next day when the weather was dark, Wanyan Loushi had already woken up.

At that moment, Wanyan Loushi immediately mobilized the army!

However, the Jurchens are indeed far inferior to before. After half an hour, the 50,000 Jurchens were finally completed, and many Jurchens were still yawning. If it were the Jurchens who had just started the army, I was afraid that in a quarter of an hour, the 50,000 Jurchens would be enough to complete the team and set off!

When the sun rose, Wanyan Loushi led an army of 50,000 to the west.

Wanyan Loushi rode on the horse, with a look of anxiety on his face.

"General, we Jurchens are invincible in the world! This time we go to Ningwu Pass, the Han people will definitely be defeated!" A ten thousand men followed Wanyan Loushi, and the ten thousand men said at this moment.

"Saili, the strength of the Han people has improved greatly over the years. We fought many times with Emperor Xuanwu of Guanshan and Han people, but did not gain any advantage. Moreover, our Jurchens are not as good as before." Wanyan Loushi said.

The leader behind him is called Wanyan Saili, and he is also a well-known general among the Jurchens. He is extremely tall, with a beard and beard on his face, and a big knife in his hand.

"General, after we conquered the Central Plains, the men will inevitably enjoy this world of flowers. What we enjoy every day is not as willing to train on weekdays, so it is naturally not as good as before. As for the Han people, only Emperor Xuanwu is a little stronger. We join forces with Emperor Jianyan, and there is no problem to eliminate Emperor Xuanwu this time! After Emperor Xuanwu dies, Emperor Jianyan in Jiangnan is not worth mentioning, so we can easily destroy Emperor Jianyan!" Wanyan Saili said.

"I hope this is the case!" Wanyan Loushi sighed softly.

The 50,000 army was walking forward, but here was mountains and the road was undulating, so the army marched very slowly.

The sun was red in the morning, and many Jurchens were wearing heavy armor, and were sweating profusely at this moment.

At noon, many Jurchens were reluctant to leave and wanted to stop and rest.

"My boys, there is a Han village ahead! Let's go there to rest!" Wanyan Loushi came to the back of the army and urged the army to say.

"The Han village?" A Jurchen leader cheered and was heading towards the front.

The Jurchens behind cheered and followed them forward.

After walking about five or six miles, a village appeared ahead.

Tens of thousands of Jurchens laughed and rushed towards the village together.

Not long after, countless screams came from the village!

At this time, the village has become hell!

Countless men fell in pools of blood, and many men were tortured and killed! Some men were cut off their hands and feet, blinded their eyes, and kept crying, while the Jurchens kept laughing! Many women were raped by these Jurchens, and it was impossible for them to commit suicide!

"General, you see, these are Han people! In front of us Jurchens, there is nothing to mention the Han people! Our Jurchens are the most powerful race in the sky and underground, and they must dominate the world!" Wanyan Saili sat next to Wanyan Loushi and said.

"Not bad! We Jurchens are invincible in the world, and the Han people are nothing!" Wanyan Loushi finally nodded.

One hour later, the Jurchens continued to rush forward!

When it got dark, they stopped to rest!

Before dawn, they set out again.

*******

More than a hundred miles west of Yanmen Pass, this is the location of Ningwu Pass in history.

Ningwu Pass and Yanmen Pass are together, and are known as the outer three passes of the Central Plains and the gateway of the Central Plains.

Ningwu Pass is not as famous as Yanmen Pass, but it is the most frequent wars in history.

When ancient northern nomadic peoples went south, they had to pass three passes.

Because the Yellow River is used as a support, only foreign cavalry can pass through ice in winter. Yanmen Pass is majestic and steep and difficult to conquer. Although Ningwu Pass is also a dangerous pass, it is not as good as Yanmen and Panmen. Therefore, the number of attacks encountered here is much more than Yanmen Pass. In many cases, Ningwu Pass was the main battlefield for the battle between the northern nomadic peoples and the Han people. Nomadic peoples such as Xianbei, Turks, Khitans, and Mongolia went south to plunder, and often chose Ningwu Pass as a breakthrough.

It is located in Sanguan Middle Road, Datong in the north, Taiyuan in the south, Panguan in the west, and Yanmen in the east, which is of an extremely important strategic position.

At this moment, there are 30,000 troops stationed here, and the guard here is Wang Fang, the deputy commander of Huanqing Army. In history, this person was also Liu Qi's deputy.

For nearly two months, there has been no attack from the Jurchens here.

However, the Song army was extremely strict in governing the army. Even under such circumstances, the defenders here dared not slacken at all.

Late at night, countless soldiers stood on the city wall, staring carefully below. No soldier dared to lie down and rest! Military orders are like mountains. If any soldier dared to lie down and rest at this time, the army would be immediately removed and there would be no sympathy!

When it was dawn, thousands of soldiers came up below to replace the soldiers.

Wang Fang had already arrived on the city wall at this moment, and he was looking into the distance.

There are vast mountains in the distance, and the terrain is dangerous.

Seeing that there seemed to be nothing abnormal in the distance, Wang Fang turned his head.

However, the moment he turned his head, he suddenly felt something was wrong in the distance.

In the distance, countless smoke and dust rose into the sky, and then a sharp sound came from the distance! It was the sound of the arrows that reported the news!

"Enemy attack! The whole army is ready for war! No one is allowed to rest. Everyone is ready to fight at any time! Notify the young people in the Production and Construction Corps to move all the city-guarding equipment to the city wall within a quarter of an hour!" Wang Fang immediately issued an order!

In just a quarter of an hour, not only countless supplies were moved to the city wall, but tens of thousands of soldiers also came to the city wall.

At this moment, the Jurchen army had also arrived at Ningwu Pass.
