The Beiliang military commander's tent on the edge of the Longmen Mountains

"Hahaha! That boy Xie Xiaolei fought beautifully. I was indeed right. He is a handsome man!"

A hearty and old laughter sounded in Chenyue's tent.

Lang Yi, the commander of the Right Cavalry Army, was smiling from ear to ear. Standing in the tent was a soldier who had not slept all day and night and had rushed back from Jianmen Pass to report the news.

When the soldiers told the whole story of Qianqi's dispatch, several people lamented that every bet Xie Xiaolei made was right.

He bet on his life and won!

"Old man Lang, stop being so sarcastic. This Xie Xiaolei was brought back from the capital by the Marquis himself. What does it have to do with you?" Shi Tiangong, the head coach of the Sirius Army, taunted him as always.

"Humph, those are also soldiers from my right cavalry army!" Lang Yi raised his eyebrows proudly.

"Why, you didn't go through the Marquis' place." Shi Tiangong rolled his eyes.

Chenyue looked at the old general who always quarreled every time he met with a smile on his face, and then turned his attention to the soldier who came to report the news: "Did you hear any news before you came?"

"Also, we have heard rumors that the Jin soldiers may increase their troops in a large scale. General Xie hopes that the reinforcements can arrive at Jianmen Pass as soon as possible to deploy defense!" The soldier said solemnly.

There was a look of exhaustion on his face. The long journey through the Longmen Mountains had exhausted his physical strength, and the corners of his clothes and boots had been worn to pieces. The journey over the hundred-mile Longmen Mountains was really dangerous.

It's just that he set out on the night he conquered Jianmen Pass, so he didn't know that Xie Xiaolei had found out the accurate news about the reinforcements.

Hearing this, Chen Yue and others frowned slightly.

"Okay, you go down and rest first, thank you for your hard work!" Chenyue said with a smile.

"No!" The soldier bowed and exited the tent.

Xin Ji, who had been sitting next to him silently, said: "No matter whether it is a rumor that the Jin people are increasing their troops in Tanzhou or not, we should send troops immediately. After the battle, Xie Xiaolei's troops only had a few hundred people left, and they will never be able to hold the sword."

The gate is closed. If Jianmen Pass is lost, it will undoubtedly become difficult to capture Tanzhou."

Seizing Jianmen Pass is only the first step, occupying the entire Tanzhou is the purpose of this dispatch.

Chenyue said in a deep voice: "Summon Sheng Nankui and Lin Xian into the tent immediately!"

After a while, two generals wearing armor walked into the commander's tent in front of everyone's eyes.

Sheng Nankui was dressed in black armor, the typical attire of a Northern Liang infantry general. He was in his prime. He was a captain of the Liangzhou Infantry Army and now served as deputy general in the infantry army.

His two broad palms have become calloused. Unlike ordinary generals who like to carry Beiliang knives hanging around their waists, Sheng Nankui has two sharp axes pinned to his waist, which are extremely sharp.

This man became famous during the Southern Expedition in Liangzhou, holding two axes and killing fourteen enemy soldiers in the formation below Lingzhou City.

Lin Xian was tall and thin at first glance, but in fact he had extraordinary arm strength and was a famous archer among the Youzhou cavalry.

Wearing a white robe and white armor, anyone familiar with Beiliang's military system would know at a glance that this man must belong to the White Snow Guard.

Only the White Snow Guards wear white robes and white armor.

When the White Snow Guard expanded, Lin Xian, a sharp archer, was transferred from Youzhou to the White Snow Guard as a partial general.

In the battle to annihilate the Jin soldiers outside the city of Anshun, this master archer fired all his arrows and killed more than ten Jin soldiers before his sword was even drawn out of its sheath, which was a remarkable achievement.

"Sheng Nankui, the infantry general of Beiliang, pays homage to the Marquis of Beiliang!"

"Lin Xian, the general of Baixue Guard, pays homage to the Marquis of Beiliang!"

A heroic shout came from the two mouths.

"How is the army prepared?" Chen Yue asked, looking at the two extraordinary generals.

"Ten thousand light-armored infantry have gathered in the Longmen Mountains and are ready to leave at any time!"

"Three thousand white snow guards are also ready, just waiting for the order from the Marquis!"

As soon as the two generals heard Chen Yue ask this question, they knew that a battle was about to begin, and their voices were full of excitement.

"Okay, let's set off early tomorrow morning. Bai Xuewei will go first, followed by the infantry. Try not to rest on the way. We will travel day and night. We will get to Jianmen Pass first!" Chen Yue said in a deep voice.

"promise!"

The two of them shouted in unison.

"Ahem, Lord Marquis, can you tell us whether there is a big battle coming?" Lin Xian asked excitedly.

"It's just that the battle against Shunzhou was too easy. The war ended without me, Old Sheng, even using these two axes." Sheng Nankui complained with a bitter face.

"To tell you the truth, I don't know the specific situation." Chen Yue moved his mouth slightly helplessly.

Most of the generals of the Beiliang Army have this kind of virtue. When fighting, they only choose tough battles. Alas, they are not willing to fight easy ones.

The two generals looked at each other, as if they were a little disappointed.

Lang Yi said with a smile: "Okay, you two, don't be downcast. Jianmen Pass is sandwiched between Yanzhou and Tanzhou. You might not be able to see the Jin soldiers coming as soon as you get there. Then you will see enemies all over the mountains and plains."

Don't let your legs get weak, military."

The two people's eyes suddenly shone with light. Sheng Nankui patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, one of them will kill one of them. If you give me a pair, my two axes are just enough to chop!"

"Hahaha!"

Several generals in the tent were all amused by these rude words.

"Okay, don't be poor. I'm telling you, when you get to Jianmen Pass, you must obey Xie Xiaolei's command. Anyone who disobeys the order will be dealt with according to the military law!" Chen Yue warned seriously: "Tell Xie Xiaolei that there will be no military action at Jianmen Pass within a month.

fall!"

"promise!"

The two of them shouted in unison.

Although Xie Xiaolei is now inferior to the two in terms of military position, anyone can see that the Marquis of Beiliang loves this young cavalry captain.

In addition, Xie Xiao Lei Qianqi broke through the Jianmen Gate and had solid military exploits. Naturally, the two of them had no objection to him commanding the military affairs of Jianmen Pass.

"Okay, let's go down and get ready. We'll set off on time tomorrow morning! Remember, stick to it for a month!" Chen Yue gave the two men a solemn look.

"Don't worry, Lord Marquis!" The two of them nodded heavily and strode out.

Seeing several people leaving, Chen Yue and several generals walked to the map and observed closely.

Xin Ji pointed on the map: "General Xue Tian and General Wang Rusong are currently stationed in Suicheng to guard against the Jin soldiers from the direction of Yanzhou. Chu Duhu led the army and Chen Binglong to send troops outside the pass, and they are ready to attack the city."

Nowadays, the Beiliang border army can be said to be divided into several groups, all the way to the border of Yanzhou, one all the way to Tanzhou, and one all the way to the Chinese military camp stationed in the Longmen Mountains.

"Jianmen Pass has been obtained. According to our deployment, the army should first attack Tanzhou and improve our northern defense line, while Suicheng will focus on the defensive and hold the troops still for the time being." Old General Shi Tiangong said.

"Master Marquis, can we send troops to Tanzhou?" Lang Yi asked softly.

Several people looked at the silent Chenyue, waiting for the order from the Marquis of Beiliang.

After a while, Chenyue pointed to Longhan Pass at the end of the Longmen Mountains: "Immediately send an order to Chu Yucheng. He must conquer the pass and enter Tanzhou within ten days. The army stationed in Suicheng will just wait for the order. Our Chinese army camp will be here for the time being."

Stay here and wait for the news after Jianmen Pass before making a decision!"

"promise!"
