Northern Territory.

The terrain in the northern territory of Dayu is extremely complex. Since it borders the Northern Desert, it is mostly wasteland, and the border is extremely long.

During the pre-Sui Dynasty, the Sui Emperor set up five important towns in the north to defend Mobei. After the founding of the country, Dayu built three cities one after another to form a dense northern defense line.

Therefore, the Northern Territory is different from the Western Territory in that not one pass can be defended at the same time.

On a barren mountain, there are scattered figures and dense tents, and the sound of war drums can be heard from time to time.

The Chinese military tent.

Li Jin sat on the main seat, looking at the map in front of him with a solemn expression. There were several figures standing in front of him, all with solemn expressions on their faces.

"Commander, now the army from Mobei is blocking the pass. If we want to escape from the inside, it will be as difficult as climbing to the sky."

"The army's food and grass can last for five days at most. After five days, we will run out of food."

A general looked at Li Jin with a deep look on his face, his expression full of worry: "Now the main force of our army is trapped here. If the cavalry from Mobei drives straight in, we will have no troops available in our territory."

"Master, let me lead the troops to charge again!"

Wu Zhou held up his hands and stepped out of the queue, a raging fighting spirit ignited in his eyes, and he looked at Li Jin hotly.

"No!"

Li Jin shook his head slightly and said in a deep voice: "Mobei did not hesitate to use 30,000 cavalry as bait to lead me into this barren mountain, so he will not let us rush out easily."

"And, this time, it's not as simple as you think."

"Um?"

Wu Zhou and Li Yan both had doubts on their faces: "What does father mean?"

"Three years ago, I led my army to defeat the Eight Barbarians in Mobei. How could they gather half a million cavalry in just three years?"

"Moreover, I received a message from Huainan half a month ago."

"Huainan?"

A look of surprise appeared on Li Yan's face, and he asked doubtfully: "Father, His Highness King Yong controlled the Jin Yiwei and the Black Ice Platform, but what did he find?"

"good!"

"His Royal Highness King Yong suspects that there is a shadow of Hu Nu behind Mobei, so I should be careful."

"So, during this period of time, I personally patrolled various cities, but I didn't expect that there would be so many masters in the Wolf Court."

“It’s hard to guard against it!”

Li Jin's face showed a strong sense of fear, and he said in a deep voice: "Send the order to the entire army to wait quietly for three more days."

"Three days?"

"Master, have you thought of a way to retreat from the enemy?"

Li Jin shook his head slightly and slowly said one word: "Wait!"

"drive!"

"drive!"

On the ancient road, a group of cavalry galloped wildly. Wherever they passed, smoke and dust billowed and birds flew across the sky.

The leader is a general wearing black armor, accompanied by several figures, and the cavalry behind him stretches continuously, at least 30,000 in number.

"Commander, if we rush over now, is it still too late?"

"There's enough time."

Yue Fei's expression was somewhat solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Mobei entered the border from the north, and it only took two days to break through. If they choose to march straight in, the front line will continue to lengthen, and the logistics supplies will inevitably be unable to keep up."

"The only way for them to obtain food and grass is to plunder along the way. Once they plunder, their marching speed will be slowed down. Therefore, if we march quickly at this time, we can stop them from outside Changyan."

"Unfortunately, it will take three days for Lan Yu's army to arrive."

Yue Fei also felt the difficulty of this situation. Now his entire eastern army only has 30,000 cavalry, and all that can be mobilized have been mobilized. Mobei has no less than 300,000 cavalry.

"Is there any news from the capital?"

"Um!"

The deputy general Niu Gao next to him nodded: "The imperial court has allowed His Highness King Yong to enter the capital, but it will take at least five days."

"Five days..."

Yue Fei waved his riding whip with a look of deep thought on his face, and then looked at Zhang Xian: "How many days will it take for the Forbidden Army to move north?"

"It only takes two days to reach Changyan County."

"good!"

"March at full speed."

The scroll city.

As a beautiful city in the north of the Yangtze River, although this city is small, it is extremely prosperous. However, in the past few days, people from the north have been going south one after another, bringing their families with them, causing the population of this small city to increase several times.

"Did you hear that?"

"The barbarians from the north have entered the border, and they will be able to kill them in a few days."

"How is it possible? The northern border is guarded by the god of Yu's army, Duke Jing. Even if the southern barbarians kill me from the southern border, there will be no problem in the northern border."

"Hmph, my cousin's family has already escaped from the North. Can I still lie to you?"

"this……"

Three or five neighbors gathered together on the street to discuss the recent situation. Suddenly, the news spread in the city, and the whole city was filled with an atmosphere of panic.

"tread!"

"tread!"

Suddenly, the houses in the city tower began to tremble, tiles fell to the ground and broke into pieces, and everyone was panicked.

"The earth dragon turned over?"

"No...it's the sound of horse hooves."

At the city, the soldiers on the city tower saw a black cloud coming from the distance. They immediately looked dumbfounded and froze on the spot.

"Enemy attack!"

"Enemy attack!"

"Close the city gate quickly!"

As a border city, the government soldiers in the city have seen blood, and most of them are veterans who have retired from the front line. However, Huaxiang City is not big, and it is not on the northern frontier of defense. There are only five thousand troops stationed all year round.

If placed in an inland city, 5,000 government soldiers are enough to match a county city, but it is not too much for a border.

"Iron Cavalry!"

"The Iron Cavalry of Mobei has entered the country."

"Come here!"

A white-haired old general looked solemn, looked at the generals in front of him, and said in a deep voice: "Send out scouts quickly, 800 miles in an emergency, report to the court, 500,000 Iron Cavalry of Mobei has entered the country!"

"Yes!"

"Close the city gates, send out 500 old soldiers, and escort the people out of the city!"

"Within half an hour, all the people in the city must leave the city."

"Yes!"

As military orders were issued one after another, the old general's face also showed a trace of grief. Looking towards the north, his expression was a bit dazed: "Marshal, how could you lose?"

"General, we are only 5,000 old soldiers, and there are hundreds of thousands of Iron Cavalry outside the city , we can hardly stop the enemy's charge!"

"Yes!"

The old general nodded, with a sad smile on his face: "Although my Huazhu City is small, it is also a key road controlling the north and south, and it is also a must-pass place for the Mobei army to go south."

"As early as a day ago, I heard rumors and war reports from the north, and I still found it a little unbelievable..."

"Hahaha, I thought that the mere Mobei would also invade my Dayu territory."

"Today, the old general will live and die with this lonely city."

The old general's face showed a resolute look, and his eyes were full of murderous aura: "How are the things I asked you to prepare?"

"Reply to the general, it's ready!"
