Fukouxing, exit, Cizhou Pass.
A marching column of more than a thousand people marched at high speed through the ancient village, moving forward lightly. They carried bows and arrows on their backs, and carried long spears and machetes in their hands. They walked as fast as flying. Although they were not wearing heavy armor, they could still move.
It can be judged from their well-developed muscles and strong bodies that this is a group of elite men and is by no means an ordinary force.
A big man more than eight feet long ran in the front, with sword-like eyebrows and tiger eyes, and sharp edges on his face. Isn't he Liu Yu? And behind him, more than ten powerful generals of the Beifu Army followed closely. Everyone's
The whole body, due to running at full speed, formed a mist of sweat and mist, covering the whole body, as fast as apes, tigers and leopards in the mountains.
There was a hint of excitement in Kuai En's voice, and he rang out: "Brother Jinu, look quickly, the Cizhou Pass is ahead. After passing here, there is the Hebei Plain ahead. Yecheng is less than a hundred miles away from here. It takes half a day to get there.
If we can kill them, it seems that we didn’t encounter any ambush along the way, so this surprise attack must be successful!”
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "All of Murong Chui's elites rushed to the south. Here, he did not leave any soldiers and horses to defend. Moreover, he thought that only Murong Yong of Xiyan would guard against his surprise attack, so he definitely did not dare to attack him actively.
Especially in the case of this defeat, the defenders here are just a show-off. We quickly conquer this pass, and then attack Yecheng overnight, and we will definitely be able to defeat it in one battle!"
As he spoke, he turned back to the people behind him and said loudly: "Brothers, work harder. Let's go to Yecheng for dinner tonight!"
A voice came coldly from the mountains on both sides, accompanied by Murong Chui's burly figure appearing on the top of the mountain: "Liu Yu, I'm afraid you will never see Yecheng again in this life, unless you can change your identity and follow me.
I’m going back.”
Liu Yu's expression changed, and he saw thousands of fully armed Houyan soldiers appearing on the mountains on both sides, each with strong bows and arrows in their hands, and more people were pushing rolling logs and hammering stones.
Several loud noises sounded behind this group of Beifu Army soldiers, but more than ten large carts were pushed down from a high place, cutting off their return path. If I could use one word to describe this group of Beifu Army soldiers, then
It's the turtle in the urn.
Behind Liu Yu, there was a slight panic. Even a strong soldier like Beifu would inevitably panic in such a desperate situation. Many people began to look left and right, and then looked at Murong Chui who was standing on the top of the cliff.
A glimmer of hope for survival flashed in his eyes.
Next to Murong Chui, a general stood impressively, it was Murong De. He laughed loudly: "Jin army officers, listen, you are in a desperate situation. You should put down your weapons and surrender early. There is still a way to survive. If you are stubborn, you will continue to resist.
, there is only one way to die!"
As soon as these words came out, four to five hundred Jin army officers immediately dropped their weapons, knelt down, and cried bitterly: "Sir, please spare my life, but I am willing to surrender. I am just a commoner, not a soldier, so why not?"
Please let me wait for a way out!"
Murong De and many of the Yan Army soldiers around him were stunned for a moment, then laughed: "I didn't expect that Beifu Army soldiers would kneel down and beg for mercy. It's really surprising."
Murong Chui's expression changed, and he jumped up from the bed. His eyes were as bright as lightning, and he looked directly at the people at the bottom of the cliff. He gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "You are not the Beifu Army! The Beifu Army definitely won't do this.
Just surrender and say, who are you?"
The leader "Liu Yu" smiled and wiped his face, and a dark face appeared in front of Murong Chui: "Old Murong, you can see clearly, a certain person named Zang, Tao, from Jingkou, is
Brother Jinu’s friend from the same hometown, the brothers I brought with me are not Beifu soldiers, but civilians who transport food to the front line. I didn’t expect that you have been scheming all your life, but in the end you fell into brother Jinu’s trap. Now, your Yecheng is the real one.
It’s an isolated city!”
Murong Chui's eyes widened and he said angrily: "This Fukouxing is the only passage from southern Shanxi to Yecheng. If you are suspicious of the soldiers, where did Liu Yu's main force go? If he detoured to other xings, he would have to walk a lot longer.
How is it possible to cross a hundred miles through the Huozhou Gorge in Jinzhong?!"
Zang Tao smiled and said: "Brother Jinu, of course, we have many ways. If we can't go by land, we can also go by water. Murong Chui, you probably don't know that in addition to crossing the north and south of the Yellow River, you can also go down the river and go straight to Liyang Ferry.
Bar!"
Murong Chui raised his white eyebrows and without saying a word, he turned around and walked down the mountain. As he walked, he waved his hand and said: "Retract the troops and leave a thousand troops to guard the pass. The rest of the troops will all follow me back to Yecheng!"
Murong De opened his eyes wide: "Brother Emperor, have we really been deceived by Liu Yu? What should we do with these more than a thousand people?"
Murong Chui gritted his teeth: "They are just suspicious soldiers. It is useless to kill them. Now I need to leave every soldier to fight with Liu Yu. I will spare their lives today. Come back to Fangye City with me quickly and notify those along the way."
All the troops, including the 5,000 armored cavalry assembled on the plains south of Cizhou as a reserve, were fully equipped and rushed back to defend Yecheng."
Without saying a word, Murong De turned around and hurried away. A dozen messengers scattered in all directions. The sound of horse hooves suddenly echoed outside the mountain along with the dust. Along with the sound of the Yan army retreating from the top of the mountain, Zang Zang
Tao's cry also echoed in the valley: "Oh, Emperor Murong, why did you just leave like this? Why don't you invite us into Cizhou City for a good meal? It can be considered as a courtesy to the landlord."
Murong Chui hurriedly ran with the wind at his feet and murmured: "Is it still too late?"
North bank of the Yellow River, Liyang Ferry.
More than a hundred military ships were docked on the river bank, and groups of Beifu sergeants, Jingjia Yaori, were jumping off the ships. Liu Yu looked calm and steadily stepped off a ship, while those who followed him closely behind him
, is Liu Jingxuan, who is as strong as Xiong Zan.
Liu Jingxuan's face was full of excitement, and he laughed loudly: "Jinu, I really have you. I never dreamed that I would be able to set foot in Hebei again so soon."
Liu Yu smiled slightly, turned around and patted Liu Jingxuan on the shoulder: "I have said before that I will definitely use you when I come to the north this time. However, acting needs to be more realistic. I am not crazy enough to think that a thousand
The men and horses plus Zhu Xu's garrison can reach the level of the Northern Expedition. To attack Hebei, we still need the strength of the Beifu Army."
Liu Muzhi smiled and jumped off the boat. As his fat body left the deck, the waterline of the entire boat floated up a few inches, while the pebbles on the river beach dropped hard.
He said with a sense of pride in his voice: "If Jinu hadn't defeated Murong Yong in the Central Plains and made a name for himself, your father wouldn't be so eager to take credit, let alone give you this pioneer general.
All this is God’s will.”
