Time passed very quickly, and seven or eight days passed in the blink of an eye. During these seven or eight days, Beijin and Beiliang fought several small battles, but neither of them gained any advantage.

As usual, the Jin soldiers always had a large army to support them whenever they attacked. They neither rushed forward nor underestimated the enemy. They were as hard as a tortoise shell and could not be chewed. It was obvious that they were completely frightened by the Beiliang army.

But there is an undercurrent surging faintly in the Beijin Army.

At this moment, Chen Yue's figure appeared on the hillside on one side of the Mei Valley. The mountains on both sides of the Mei Valley were not high, but quite steep. Halfway there, there was no way to go up the mountain.

Chenyue leaned down and looked down the mountain. Camp walls had been built on both sides of the valley, about several feet high. Many soldiers were placing horse antlers, bows and crossbows and other equipment. Large numbers of carriages were pulling grain into the valley.

.

As a newly built granary, the rations for Beiliang's more than 100,000 frontline troops are all stored here. Chenyue would naturally be worried if he didn't come to see it in person.

"Master Marquis, the defensive horses on both sides are enough to withstand the impact of the cavalry. The defenders will also be patrolling on the hillside. Judging from the terrain, Meigu is easy to defend but difficult to attack. Moreover, it is behind my army, so safety should be no problem."

Wang Shouren, who was following Chen Yue, pointed down the hillside and said.

"Shouren, I leave this important land for food to you to protect. Don't think that I won't fight for you." Chenyue said with a chuckle.

"Don't worry, Lord Marquis. I know it well. This is because the Marquis trusts our brothers in Yunguying." Wang Shouren grinned.

Wang Shouren, who has now officially become the commander of the first battalion, has shown the demeanor of a general in every gesture and gesture. He is no longer the red-headed general who marched and fought under the name of a traitor.

"Haha, that's all you can think of." Chen Yue laughed loudly and then asked: "Where is Zang Cheng?"

"This guy has led people to set up defenses. Over there." Wang Shouren pointed at a slightly burly figure in the distance.

"General Zang really does everything himself. You two brothers are very reassuring as a team." Chenyue said as he walked towards the foot of the mountain: "Since the battle in Tanzhou City, Yungu Camp has added half of the people from Liaodong.

Soldier, are you getting along well?"

In the battle of Tanzhou City, more than half of Wang Shouren's 5,000 men were killed, and Shi Lie and Sun Chang also died at the same time. Half of the current 5,000-person Yungu Camp was added after the war.

Wang Shouren clasped his fists and said in a deep voice: "The general will assure you, once the cloud drum sounds, no one in the whole camp will be afraid of fighting!"

Think about how tragic it is when the clouds break through the black soil.

"Okay!" Chenyue punched Wang Shouren hard and warned: "Although Meigu is at the rear, we can't take it lightly. The Tiger and Leopard Cavalry camp is only more than ten miles away from here. If something happens, you can send out smoke to warn the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry."

Coming soon!"

"No!" Wang Shouren nodded.

"Let's go and see how the defenses are deployed." Chen Yue patted Wang Shouren's shoulder very kindly, and the two of them walked side by side down the mountain.

At the junction of Yunzhou and Yanzhou, there was a huge cavalry column marching, with a total of forty or fifty thousand people. They all had fierce looks and cold eyes constantly scanning the surroundings.

Among the marching ranks, there are thousands of soldiers who are not wearing armor and only wearing single clothes. They are all tall and strong men with bulging muscles in their arms. Even if there is no war at this time, everyone is still fighting. Everyone except sitting

In addition to dismounting the war horse, he also led two other horses. One horse was free, and the other war horse carried heavy armor on its back.

This is the Iron Pagoda of Northern Jin. It is the personal army of Prince Long Wanyan Aguda. It has such a ferocious reputation that all the people in Northern Jin are frightened after hearing about it.

On a hillside beside the marching road, there was a Northern Jin Huang flag standing in the wind. Next to the imperial flag was a military flag with the word Wan Yan written on it.

There were seven or eight armored warriors standing under the banner, with Wanyan Aguda in the middle looking solemnly into the distance.

"Father, this place is less than two hundred miles away from the Qilian Mountains. According to the current marching speed, we can reach the battlefield in five days." A very young-looking general said from the side.

This man is Wanyan Aguda's eldest son, Wanyan Bi. He was sent to the army by Wanyan Aguda since he was a child. Although he is young, he has already become famous among the Jin soldiers as a leader. In addition, his father, Prince Long

Because of his reputation, everyone thinks that Wanyan Bi will become the next Marshal of the Jin Dynasty. It is not an exaggeration to call him the proud son of the North Jin Dynasty.

"Have the patrol patrols noticed something strange these days? Our march must be secretive!" Wanyan Aguda asked flatly.

"Since the army left the station, I have sent countless scouts within a hundred miles. Any slightest sign of trouble will be discovered by me. So far, I have not encountered any scouts from Beiliang. I dare say that Beiliang does not know that we have sent troops.

News." Wanyanbi bowed and replied.

"Before, we were far away in Yunzhou, so there was nothing unusual about it. Now we are getting closer and closer to the front line. Don't take it lightly. I heard that Beiliang's top scouts are called crossbowmen, and they all have extraordinary combat capabilities. I told the patrol officers that whenever they encounter Beiliang crossbowmen,

Hands must be annihilated on the spot. If one person escapes, the whole team will be killed!"

"promise!"

The military orders issued by Wanyan Agu were extremely strict, but all the generals around him had no objections. These people were all generals who had fought with Wanyan Agu for many years, and they only had the word "obedience" in their eyes.

"Generals." Wanyan Aguda glanced at the generals beside him with an indifferent expression: "Beiliang entered the Liao Dynasty for half a year and won every victory, but our Jin people retreated again and again. If this continues, what is the power of our Jin army?

?Wouldn’t you become the laughing stock of the world! This expedition is to defeat the Northern Liang Army and regain the lost land in Liaodong. The soldiers under my command will not be able to fight before the battle, so they will be placed in the military position!"

"promise!"

After saying this, all the generals retreated one after another, and only Wanyan Bi stayed by his father's side.

"My son, this expedition is not only risky, but it is also an opportunity for you." Wanyan Aguda's expression softened a lot: "This battle is something you can only encounter but cannot seek. With this battle, you can

You need to accumulate enough military merit. I, the King, will use force to build a country. No matter how prominent your life is, it will be difficult to convince the public without military merit!"

"I understand, kid!" Wanyanbi smiled slightly. He had already considered the position of the next Marshal of the Great Jin Army to be in his pocket.

Wanyan Aguda also had great confidence in his son. After all, he had grown up in the army since he was a child and had learned his true military skills.

The two of them got on their horses, and Wanyan Aguda looked into the distance: "Do you remember what I told you?"

"Attack across the board to attract the strength of the Northern Liang Army. When our army arrives, we will annihilate them in one fell swoop." Wanyanbi answered with cupped hands.

"Go ahead and tell Wanyan Liang that you will take over the frontline war for the time being. Your words are mine." Wanyan Aguda waved his hand slightly.

"promise!"
