Jing Tianlie was hiding in a tent in the woods. Waiting for his horse came in from the outside and reported: "General, Long Chengen's army has camped ten miles to the south and will not leave."
Jing Tianlie's heart tightened, feeling that something was not right.
"Not leaving? What do you mean?"
"Twenty thousand cavalry are camped on the spot, and they are making breakfast."
Jing Tianlie looked at Chen Yuxin.
Chen Yuxin asked: "Where is Long Chengen? What is he doing?"
Hou Qi replied: "It's too far away, and my subordinates can't see Long Cheng'en."
Jing Feng said: "Have you been discovered?"
Chen Yu thought for a while and said: "It's possible, but even if we are discovered, it doesn't matter. We just need to block the canyon and prevent him from passing by."
"When Yeluhong captures Yanmen Pass, we will take the initiative to kill Long Chengen."
"General, we want to prevent Long Chengen from escaping. The last general suggested sending five thousand people to go around behind Long Chengen and block his way."
Jing Tianlie felt that it made sense. It didn't matter if the ambush plan failed, but if Long Chen ran away, the result would be in vain.
"Father, I will lead the troops to cut off the retreat!"
Jing Feng hated Long Chen so much that he even dreamed of killing Long Chen.
Jing Tianlie nodded and said: "Okay, you lead five thousand troops and go around, don't let him find out."
Jing Feng immediately led his troops to sneak around behind the reinforcements and block their return path.
Jing Tianlie took out a large piece of cooked beef, cut off a piece with a dagger, and chewed it slowly. He always felt that it was not as delicious as the food of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
After waiting for a long time, the waiting cavalry came back and reported that the reinforcements were resting on the spot after breakfast and had no intention of advancing.
Jing Tianlie began to feel that something was wrong and said: "They knew that Yanmen Pass was besieged, so why were they not worried at all?"
Jiang Lin said: "Long Chengen thinks that Emperor Lingyi can guard Yanmen Pass, so he is not in a hurry."
Lu Gan shook his head and said: "How is it possible? Yeluhong has sent out more than 200,000 troops. Sooner or later, Emperor Lingyi will not be able to defend it, unless there are other reinforcements."
Chen Yuxin suddenly felt a warning sign and said, "Yes, could it be that Long Chengen's reinforcements have already arrived?" arrive?"
Jiang Lin felt that Chen Yu was thinking too much: "The reinforcements are in the south, how could they have arrived? Can Long Chengen still fly there?"
Chen Yuxin shook her head and said: "No, the reinforcements here have not arrived. What if there are other reinforcements? There is a road leading to Yanmen Pass from Jade Buddha Pass, and the Major General used that road to get emergency reinforcements."
At this point, Jing Tianlie suddenly came to his senses and exclaimed: "Yes, we can also mobilize reinforcements at Jade Buddha Pass. Long Chengen has already arrived at Yanmen Pass, retreat!"
Jing Tianlie dropped the beef on the ground and stood up suddenly.
Jiang Lin didn't understand. He felt that Jing Tianlie was frightened by Long Chen.
"General, it's impossible. Yufo Pass is going to deal with Xixia. How can it be possible to mobilize troops?"
Chen Yuxin was also very sure and said: "We all thought that the soldiers and horses at Jade Buddha Pass could not be moved, but in fact, the tens of thousands mobilized will not have any impact."
"Xixia doesn't want to go to war with Eastern Zhou yet. The most it can do is put pressure on Jade Buddha Pass, which has nothing to do with the overall situation."
"I estimate that Long Chengen has arrived at Yanmen Pass, and there may be a fierce battle going on at this time."
Jing Tianlie shook his head slightly, thinking of the worst outcome.
"If I were Long Chengen, I would quietly take a detour to the west of Yanmen Pass, and then lead reinforcements to attack the barbarians at night. Emperor Lingyi would then come out from the pass. At this time, I have defeated the enemy!"
All the generals were shocked by this guess.
"Let Jingfeng come back and retreat immediately. If we don't leave, we will all die here!"
Jing Tianlie has been fighting for decades and knows what Long Chen will do.
Blockade Yanmen Pass, and then join forces with Emperor Lingyi to kill the Red Flame Army inside the pass.
The Red Flame Army quickly assembled, and just as Jing Feng set out, he was called back to retreat.
Da Zhou Military Camp.
Zhang Qian held a telescope and stood on a hilltop looking at the canyon.
Wu Chuchu next to him also held a telescope and saw ambush soldiers coming out of the mountains on both sides, and then hurriedly
Hastily retreated north.
"They retreated and their formation was in chaos. Did the general succeed at Yanmen Pass?"
Zhang Qian also saw it, but she was more cautious and said: "I don't know, sir, there is no news. We can't pursue easily. Jing Tianlie is old and cunning, so don't fall into the trap."
Wu Chuchu smiled and said: "He is so cunning? Then why does he fall into the adults' schemes every time?"
Zhang Qian shook her head and said: "My lord is as evil as a ghost. He can play with Jing Tianlie, but we are different."
Zhang Qian knew very well that Jing Tianlie was able to establish the General's Palace and become a hero of a generation. He was a very powerful figure.
The reason he became so miserable now was because Long Chen was even more ruthless.
To put it bluntly, it’s not that Sedum Lie is too weak, it’s that Long Chen is too strong.
"Then we wait a little longer?"
Wu Chuchu asked.
Zhang Qian thought for a while and said: "Send Hou to ride over and see if they have really retreated."
Wu Chuchu agreed, and after returning to the military camp, he immediately sent two waiting cavalry to investigate the situation.
Jing Tianlie hurriedly gathered the Red Flame Army and retreated north in a panic. Everyone was panicking.
If Long Chen really defeated the barbarians and blocked Yanmen Pass, then they would become turtles in the urn.
The cavalry galloped all the way, and when they arrived at Yanmen Pass, there was silence ahead.
Jing Tianlie groaned secretly in his heart, knowing that the barbarians had been defeated.
In front, two horses rushed out, followed by more than a dozen generals, led by Long Chen and Di Lingyi.
"Jing Tianlie, we meet again!"
Long Chen laughed and said.
Emperor Lingyi pointed at Jing Tianlie and cursed: "Traitor! The barbarians have been defeated by us. Surrender now and I will let you die happily!"
When Chen Yuxin saw Long Chen, her heart was already half cold.
The worst guess has come true, today may be his death anniversary.
Lu Gan complained: "You are called a think tank, why didn't you think of this key point?"
Jiang Lin said: "It's useless to talk more, let's save the general and rush out!" If the 30,000 Red Flame Army forcefully break through the barrier and only allow Jing Tianlie to escape, it is not impossible.
Jingtian Lieyang sighed: "Long Chengen, you have been tricked again! You are treacherous enough, but it is not so easy to kill me!"
Suddenly, he dismounted his horse and raised his hooves. Jing Tianlie came to kill Long Chen with a mountain-cutting ax in his hand.
Jing Feng shouted: "Kill!"
The soldiers behind him swarmed forward to fight.
Long Chen smiled coldly and shouted: "Withdraw!"
Emperor Lingyi ignored him and turned around with his generals to go up to Yanmen Pass. They only guarded the pass and did not fight.
"Long Chengen, are you a man? Come down and fight!"
Jingfeng cursed loudly.
Long Chen laughed and said: "Is there something wrong with you? Ask your mother if I am a man!"
All the soldiers laughed loudly.
The Red Flame Army's return route has been cut off and they have become a trapped beast. If they engage in battle at this time, they will surely suffer heavy casualties.
Therefore, Long Chen did not fight, but only guarded the pass, trapping the Red Flame Army inside the pass.
Without water, it will take two days to finish.
Jing Tianlie was holding a mountain axe, but he could not fight at the foot of the pass, and there was no way to retreat.
"Brothers, if you rush out, you will live. If you fail to rush out, you will die. Give it a try!"
Jing Tianlie knew that he could not delay, and only by fighting to the death could there be hope.
The soldiers of the Red Flame Army also knew that this battle was related to their own life and death, so they followed Jing Tianlie forward.
"put!"
Dugu Jiali shouted loudly, and the bed crossbow and the divine arm bow were fired at the same time, and the Red Flame Army rushing in front was stabbed through.
Jing Tianlie saw an extremely thick crossbow arrow flying towards him, and was so frightened that he hurriedly raised his ax to block it.
boom!
The mountain-breaking ax almost flew away, and the swinging crossbow arrow hit Lu Gan beside him.
"General."
Lu Gan looked at his chest that had been penetrated and fell to the ground unwillingly.
"withdraw!"
The bed crossbow and the divine arm bow were too powerful, so Jing Tianlie ordered to retreat.
