Jianmen Pass.
It got its name because the inside of the pass resembles a long sword that is slanting horizontally.
This place is the first pass for Beiliang to defend against the grasslands. It is also a bridgehead and the most important line of defense. If this pass can't stop Beiman.
That can only retreat to Liangzhou City and give up many areas.
As far as Chen Yuan knows, Jianmen Pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and many killing arrays have already been deployed around it. It is one of the most important passes in the world.
Chen Yuan learned from the previous guard that Wei Jinfeng, the King of Beiliang, did not delay at all after this. It took more than an hour to arrive here.
Looking from a distance, I can't help but be shocked by it.
The whole Xiongguan Pass was filled with the intent of killing with iron and blood. A branch of Beiliang army kept entering the pass. Chen Yuan's arrival attracted a lot of attention.
In order to prevent unnecessary trouble, he quickly reported his family name, and as before, after checking that he was behind him, he was led into the pass by a general.
The inside is tight.
The Beiliang army was densely packed, some were practicing, some were escorting food and grass, in short, everyone was performing their duties, and the atmosphere was a bit dignified.
It seems that they have already heard the news that the Beiman is going to knock the customs.
After reporting, Chen Yuan saw Wei Jinfeng in a python robe in a certain hall inside Jianmen Pass.
"You're back?"
Wei Jinfeng asked with a calm face.
"Yes."
Chen Yuan nodded.
"How is the investigation of the remnants of the previous dynasty?" Before Chen Yuan could say anything about the military situation, Wei Jinfeng had already asked this question.
Chen Yuan thought for a moment, then said:
"These remnants of the former dynasty ran to the Mobei Grassland. Chen has been following them these days. Fortunately, nothing happened, and he took down an important remnant of the former dynasty."
"Oh, who is it?"
Wei Jinfeng frowned, seemingly surprised.
"Now the young patriarch of the legacy of the previous dynasty, Xiang Lingtian."
Wei Jinfeng nodded thoughtfully, he had naturally heard of this name, but he didn't expect to die in Chen Yuan's hands now, what is this Xiang Qianqiu's plan.
While he was thinking, Chen Yuan no longer hesitated, and directly stated the origin of this trip:
"My lord, Mr. Chen is eager to come here this time because he has important military information to let the lord know."
"Say."
Wei Jinfeng frowned slightly when he heard the important military situation.
"This time, Mr. Chen went to the grassland and killed Xiang Lingtian to recuperate from his injuries. He then learned a huge news. This time, the northern barbarians will attack the Central Plains on a large scale. iron cavalry"
"What did you say?"
Before Chen Yuan finished speaking, Wei Jinfeng suddenly asked after hearing "Gu Jin Da Khan Wan Yan Tianba personally led 700,000 cavalry".
Chen Yuan raised his head and said in a deep voice:
"The Great Khan of Gu Jin, Wanyan Tianba, personally led 700,000 cavalry to conquer the Central Plains. When Chen came, he had already spotted the barbarian's vanguard army 700 miles away."
Wei Jinfeng clenched his fists under his sleeves. He knew that there might be a lot of movement in the grassland at this moment, but he never expected that the movement would be so big!
Seven hundred thousand cavalry!
This is not a simple number. Looking at the more than 200 years he has been in Beiliang, this kind of battle is only the second time he has experienced it.
Last time, his strength was mediocre, and he did not enter the Yangshen. The entire Youliang Prefecture suffered a great loss. If it weren't for the Sixth Realm Immortal of Wudang Mountain, he might have already fallen.
This time, here we go again!
What exactly did Xiang Qianqiu do? !
"Is this...accurate?"
"Chen is willing to guarantee with his life. This news is the news that Chen got after destroying a royal family. There will be absolutely no fake news. The prince can rest assured."
Chen Yuan said solemnly.
"Seven hundred miles" Wei Jinfeng's eyes were extremely serious.
He had already started to make preparations a few days ago, and scattered dozens of teams on the grassland to scout the enemy's situation. At present, he can only use this primitive method.
After many years of fighting, he already has a lot of experience.
Like this kind of army conquest, the northern barbarians will definitely recruit many priests to cover up the secrets, and it is impossible to calculate where they are located. Besides,
Except for those few people in the world, no one can calculate the movement of hundreds of thousands of people.
The backlash is too big!
"Chen Yuan."
Suddenly, Wei Jinfeng said in a deep voice.
"What is your order?"
"This king has the right to control all military, political and military affairs in Liangzhou during the war. Now the northern barbarians are about to invade on a large scale. They want to recruit all the sky patrol guards under your Liangzhou Sky Surveyor to enter Jianmen Pass."
"Follow the military order of King Beiliang!"
Chen Yuan had a solemn face, fists folded and bowed.
"Let's go to Liangzhou City quickly. These barbarians will come in less than two days after seven hundred miles. Your strength is rare under Huayang. This king may entrust you with important tasks at that time. Of course, all the military exploits you have made This king will also truthfully request credit from the imperial court."
Wei Jinfeng condensed his voice.
Chen Yuan's strength is indeed very strong under Huayang, but this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is his identity. He doesn't believe that his only son, Xiang Qianqiu, will sit back and watch him face danger.
If Xiang Qianqiu can help him, he can block 200,000 troops.
"Thank you, my lord, Chen will leave."
Chen Yuan looked up at Wei Jinfeng, then turned and left.
After Chen Yuan left completely, Wei Jinfeng's hand flashed with brilliance, and a messenger talisman appeared in his hand. With a solemn expression, he informed the court of the current situation in Liangzhou.
700,000 troops are not something Beiliang can resist.
The loss is too heavy.
The imperial court must send out the Beijing-China Camp to resist.
After finishing all this, Wei Jinfeng rushed to the door and said:
"Summon all the generals of the four major battalions in the pass, this king has important military orders!"
Leaving Jianmen Pass, Chen Yuan went straight to Liangzhou City without delay. When he arrived, his first order was to summon all the Qing envoys and above officials of the Xuntian Division.
With the previous prestige, no one would dare to disobey Chen Yuan's order.
In just a quarter of an hour, everyone came here. Except for Chen Yuan, there were two gold envoys, four deputy envoys, and nearly twenty Tongxuan Qing envoys.
I have to say that Liangzhou Sky Survey Division is stronger than Qingzhou.
But this is really normal. After all, Liangzhou is completely different from ordinary state capitals, and the pressure they bear is even heavier.
"See Your Excellency!"
"See Your Excellency!"
A group of people immediately bowed and saluted, and no one was disrespectful.
Chen Yuan nodded, looked around everyone, and said:
"Recently, the Japanese officials were ordered by the court to track down the whereabouts of some monsters. Huangfu Jinshi and Feng Jinshi, both of you have worked hard."
"My lord is too serious."
"To be in charge of the Sky Survey Division for your lord is exactly what our subordinates should do."
"I don't want to say too much. I will talk about these things later. Today, all of you are called together to convey the important military situation of the King of Beiliang."
"Your Excellency, just give orders."
"Sir, please speak."
"This envoy has just returned from Jianmen Pass and told the King of Beiliang about a major event. Now I want to tell you that this time, the King's Court of Beiman Ancient Gold has come all over the country. A total of 700,000 cavalry are about to invade the Central Plains. All the Sky Patrol Guards of the State Patrol Division will be incorporated into the barracks, led by this envoy, and arrive at Jianmen Pass before tomorrow!"
"Boom!!"
This shocking news exploded in the hearts of everyone in an instant. Even the golden envoys like Feng Jiuying and Huangfuqi froze in place.
Ancient Jin Royal Court!
700,000 troops!
Attack the Central Plains! !
Everyone's eyes were full of horror. None of them had experienced such a thing. For many years in the past, they had only cooperated with the King of Beiliang.
Even Huangfuqi, who is the oldest and has served in Liangzhou for many years, the biggest conquest he has ever experienced was an attack on Youzhou by 100,000 northern barbarian cavalry.
And this has caused Youzhou to be in a hurry and suffered heavy losses.
700,000 troops, several times larger than that, how much damage will it cause?
Will they survive?
This is really unclear.
"Why is there any objection?"
Chen Yuan's eyes sank.
"Don't dare."
"Follow your lord's orders."
"This time is when Liangzhou lives and dies. We belong to the Central Plains. We should fight the enemy bravely. All the savings of the Xuntian Division will be used this time.
Whether it is an injury or a death, the Xuntian Division will pay three times the pension. If there are children in the family, they can make an exception and be called into the Xuntian Guard Reserve Battalion. In a word,
Foreign enemies are at present, let us fight against them together! "
Chen Yuan's voice was resounding, hitting everyone's hearts hard.
"Obey!"
"The humble job obeys!"
"The humble job obeys!"
Following Chen Yuan's order, all the Sky Surveyors of Liangzhou Sky Survey Division were mobilized, not only that, but also the Sky Survey Divisions of all prefectures in Liangzhou.
Everyone!
During the period, it was not that no one thought about asking for a transfer from their relationship, or even voluntarily abandoned their official positions, but all of these people were killed by Chen Yuan to make an example.
In extraordinary times, extraordinary means should be used.
Chen Yuan only controls the power of Liangzhou Xuntian Division, while Northern Liang King Wei Jinfeng controls the power of all military and political affairs in Liangzhou, and his military orders are issued.
The entire Liangzhou trembled slowly like a huge and sophisticated machine.
Wei Jinfeng didn't try to hide it, let alone cover it up, he directly conveyed the order, telling all the people in Liangzhou that some people were afraid and some were frightened.
But more is the unity of will.
Just that day, nearly 100,000 young and strong men in Liangzhou City wanted to join the army.
I have to say, this is a terrifying number.
At the same time, it also revealed the great prestige of Northern Liang King Wei Jinfeng in Liangzhou.
Chen Yuan was the first to send back the news, and under his deliberate order, the words spoken by Xun Tiansi spread throughout Liangzhou City in just one day.
Especially, the foreign enemy is currently present, and the eight characters of uniting against the enemy are widely broadcast.
brought him a lot of fame.
Before, Chen Yuan’s reputation was ruthless, clever, young and handsome, and promising, but after he said those words, he added another one.
For the country and the people!
The army, officials, common people, and even Jianghu warriors, all mobilized.
A great battle between the Central Plains and the Northern Barbarians is about to begin.
Shenjing City, Imperial Palace Imperial Study Room.
Jingtai's face was calm, holding the Beiliang secret report that had just been sent back from below in his hand, his eyes flickered, and he was thinking about something.
"Your Majesty, what happened to Beiliang?"
Seeing Jingtai's complexion is not very good, Cao Zhengxian hesitated for a moment, then asked.
Jingtai took a deep breath, threw the report in his hand on the table, and said:
"The Northern Barbarians are about to knock on the gate again."
"this is not"
"Wanyan Tianba, the king of the ancient gold court, led 700,000 cavalry!"
"what!!"
Cao Zhengxian's eyes widened, and his heart was shocked.
He wanted to say just now, isn’t it normal that Beiliang knocks on the customs every year?
As a result, the emperor told him in a blink of an eye that this time was different from the past. Wang Ting sweated profusely and personally led 700,000 cavalry!
What is this concept?
When the imperial court was first established, it was just like this!
This is shocking news.
"What does the King of Beiliang want?"
"Wei Jinfeng wants me to send 200,000 troops, under the command of Shenwu Zhenjun, to support Liangzhou."
Jingtai said with deep eyes.
"This"
Seeing Jingtai's displeased expression, Cao Zhengxian turned his eyes and asked:
"Then how does His Majesty plan to deal with it?"
"Qing Cao."
"The veteran is here."
"Do you think Wei Jinfeng is ambitious?" Jingtai asked casually, tapping his fingers on the table, his eyes calm.
Turning in his mind for a moment, Cao Zhengxian said in a low voice:
"Wei Jinfeng has been in power for too long."
Jingtai raised his head and glanced at him with a smile:
"You are right. Wei Jinfeng has been in power for too long, and his strength is too strong. In Liangzhou, the people only know the King of Beiliang but not me. Do you think he still needs to exist?"
"But if there is no support, it may be difficult to stop Tianxia Youyou's mouth. Moreover, if Wei Jinfeng is really defeated, once the Beiman drives straight in, it may threaten the capital at that time."
Cao Zhengxian persuasively said.
The existence of King Beiliang and King Zhennan are indeed two thorns for the court. In comparison, King Beiliang has a deeper thorn, which makes Jingtai feel like a thorn in his throat.
Not only to appease, but also to allocate funds every year.
Liangzhou has become a country within a country!
This is something that no emperor can accept.
but.
There must be a reason for its existence.
The King of Zhennan guards the southern frontier to guard against the monsters, and the King of Northern Liang guards the Liangyou border to guard against the grassland barbarians. If they are eliminated, the impact will be too great.
It’s not that the emperor had thought of this before, but as long as Wei Jinfeng used means to let the barbarians pass through Youzhou and wreak havoc, the court would stop this thought.
Although they really didn't want to admit it, they had to admit that Wei Jinfeng was not a simple person.
If the pressure is too harsh, the king of Beiliang will join forces with the barbarians, which will really shake the foundation of the imperial court. Therefore, the meaning of Cao Zhengxian's words is to let Jingtai be patient.
When the enemy is present, do not do such things.
Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous.
"When did I say that I would not support? Liangzhou and Youzhou are all the territory of the imperial court, and they are an indispensable part of the Great Jin Dynasty. I will never do things that make enemies happy and loved ones hurt."
Jingtai said in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Cao Zhengxian hurriedly flattered.
"Wei Jinfeng asked me for 200,000 elite soldiers, and I gave him 300,000. Most of the large armies near the capital will be sent to the border. Besides,
Governor Gu Tianqiong will also go out with the army, but it will take a little time to raise the army. "
Jingtai's mouth curled into a smile.
"Your Majesty, you."
Cao Zhengxian's expression froze, and he understood the meaning of Jingtai's words.
"Liangzhou and Youzhou are both borders, and they are all dangerous. I will not favor one over the other. I will support Youzhou first, wait until Youzhou is safe, and then let the Generalissimo send troops to Beiliang. It will definitely help Wei Jinfeng."
Jingtai said.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid that Wei Jinfeng is there."
"Peace first, I will definitely send troops when I say I will send troops, but there is always a priority, and the King of Beiliang will understand my difficulties."
There was a chill in Jingtai's eyes.
300,000 Beiliang iron cavalry, huh, what a terrifying number. Jingtai has long thought about it, but it has never had a good chance.
Now the Beiman is aggressively attacking, giving him a chance!
First appease Wei Jinfeng, tell him that the imperial court has sent troops, and he will resist the strength of the grassland. When it is about the same time, the imperial army will go out to fight.
At that time, even if someone is dissatisfied, so what?
After expelling the prairie barbarians, most of the Beiliang army has been lost. If they don't have the strength to resist the imperial court, they just need to send a trusted emperor to continue guarding.
In this way, Liangzhou will be completely under the jurisdiction of the imperial court!
"If the king of Beiliang can't resist the advance of Beiliang's army, what will happen to those barbarians entering Liangzhou territory?" Cao Zhengxian felt that he had to remind Jingtai.
Just stabilize the current situation, why take risks?
The Northern Liang army plus the imperial army, the 700,000 grassland barbarians can't make any big waves.
"Don't the people of Liangzhou follow Wei Jinfeng wholeheartedly? Then let them go together. After hundreds of years, everything will be back to normal."
"The imperial court can't be messed up!"
Jingtai smiled faintly.
But this sentence made Cao Zhengxian feel a chill.
What a relaxing sentence.
Yes, there are millions of people in Beiliang, but these are millions of real people!
Cao Zhengxian suddenly felt that he had followed Jingtai for so many years and had never seen him through.
Heart. Too cruel!
"Old ministers and ministers obey the order."
Cao Zhengxian hesitated for a moment, but finally lowered his head.
"Go ahead and tell Wei Jinfeng the news of the imperial court's dispatch of troops. You must stabilize him first. Also, summon the Grand Marshal and the governor to enter the palace. I have important matters to discuss."
Jingtai waved his hand, and a very subtle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, as if he was in control of everything.
"The veteran obeys the order."
Cao Zhengxian's heart sank, and he bowed and retreated.
Regarding the news from Beiliang, Jingtai did not let people block it, and even deliberately indulged it. One is to see the reaction of the world, and the other is to see who has evil intentions under such a situation!
The city of Shenjing is located in the world, the top ten sects of immortals, and many top forces in the rivers and lakes, most of them have branches here, or intelligence spies, news from the palace.
It spread throughout the capital almost at the speed of a hurricane.
After a brief silence, there was a huge wave immediately.
The number of 700,000 Northern Barbarian cavalry is too impressive. No matter who hears about it, they will inevitably be shocked.
After the news spread throughout the capital, all forces also learned of this terrifying news as quickly as possible.
Suddenly, the world was shocked!
This day is the ninth year of Jintai Jingtai, April 16, and it is also an important turning point in the world situation.
——
Really don’t keep books, brothers, I’ve been chasing down too hard recently.
The momentum of the explosive update has weakened a lot.
Everyone stand up! !
The plot has begun to enter the middle and late stages, and it will be more exciting later.
