Chapter 196 Beidi knocks on the pass

Northern Xinjiang.

Yanmen Pass.

Yanmen Pass is a majestic pass in northern Xinjiang, and it is also the most important barrier in northern Xinjiang against the foreign tribes in Beidi.

As long as the barrier of Yanmen Pass is not broken, the surrounding passes will be as stable as Mount Tai.

At this moment, outside Yanmen Pass.

More than 200,000 Beidi cavalry troops were outside.

There was a strong sense of cruelty in the eyes of these Beidi cavalry.

A mere border gate actually blocked several charges from their Beidi cavalry. This was a great shame and humiliation for them.

The walls of Yanmen Pass were already in flames of war, with constant fighting.

Broken limbs and dead bodies can be seen everywhere.

The bright red blood has gradually dyed the walls of Guancheng red.

"The Great Zhou Empire is indeed worthy of its reputation. It deserves to be called the Celestial Kingdom that suppresses all directions. It suppressed me in Beidi back then and I almost couldn't breathe."

"Even though the Great Sunday has declined and Xishan has declined, I, Beidi, have taken advantage of the situation, gathered more than half of the country's troops, and charged several times, we are still unable to break through this border gate."

"There is no need to emulate others' ambitions. We, the Beidi Iron Cavalry, are roaming outside the Great Wall. The Great Zhou Dynasty has never been our opponent. The reason why we are blocked is simply because the other party relies on the strong pass and sacrifices their lives to lick it."

"Looking at the current situation, this has blocked our heroic pass in Beidi for many years, and we can't hold on for much longer. Once our Beidi Iron Cavalry breaks through this heroic pass, we can go all the way south and hunt the Central Plains. No one can stop our Beidi Iron Cavalry.

Zhifeng.”

…

In front of more than 200,000 Beidi cavalry, several Beidi generals in armor looked at the flames of war as Yanmen closed and talked in low voices.

"This time we sent troops to the Zhou Dynasty, I heard that those Zhou people who had just joined us had negotiated with the national army and facilitated this."

"That's right, the Zhou people who just took refuge with us seem to be members of the seven great families of the Zhou Dynasty. The emperor of the Zhou Dynasty killed their whole family, and then these people luckily escaped to our Beidi and took refuge in our Beidi."

"These Zhou people wanted to find their Zhou emperor to avenge their families, so they approached the Imperial Preceptor to facilitate the matter."

"However, this is also in line with what we in Beidi want. We in Beidi have always wanted to go south, but we just haven't had the chance."

"Now that we have these people from the Zhou Dynasty who have taken refuge here as internal agents to help lead the way, it would be great."

"Yes! These people from the Great Zhou who have taken refuge here are from the seven great families of the Great Zhou. Their influence in the Great Zhou is not weak. With their help and guidance, it will be much easier for us to go south."

"At that time, we can have a good plunder, women, money, population, everything..."

These Beidi generals talked enthusiastically.

In their view, breaking through Yanmen Pass is only a matter of time, and it won't take long.

Once Yanmen Pass is broken, more than 200,000 Beidi cavalry will move south. With the flexibility of the cavalry, no one can stop the more than 200,000 Beidi cavalry...

…

In front of these Beidi generals, a burly general was riding on horseback, watching the battle at Yanmen with calm eyes.

This burly general was none other than Maha, the commander-in-chief of the Beidi army heading south this time.

Maha is a warrior of Beidi and a general of Beidi. He has long been famous among the Beidi army.

Next to Maha, a young man who was incompatible with the people of Beidi was riding on horseback. Listening to the discussions of the Beidi generals behind him, his fists were secretly clenched.

This young man who is incompatible with the people of Beidi is Fan Shaohe, a remnant of the Xiu Fan family who escaped from the customs.

Although Fan Shaohe defected to Beidi and received warm support from the people in Beidi on the surface, secretly, many Beidi people still looked down on Fan Shaohe and made sarcastic remarks from time to time.

After all, Fan Shaohe was a lost dog, and he led the Beidi people south to invade the Great Zhou Dynasty, which was his homeland.

Such behavior, even in the eyes of a foreign race like Beidi, is despised.

Fan Shaohe loosened his secretly clenched fists and calmed down his fluctuating emotions.

No matter what, as long as he can avenge those people who were killed by him in the Fan family, it doesn't matter if he has to bear a lifetime of infamy.

Fan Shaohe glanced at the fighting scene with Yanmen Gate closed, and looked sideways at Maha; "General Maha, our previous plan does not seem to be to break through Yanmen Pass."

"We have already made an agreement with the Marquis of Zhenbei. We will just pretend to attack Yanmen Pass on the surface, and then secretly break through the two defense lines of Jiuyuan and Mayi, and move south from these two lines of defense."

"But now I think General Maha wants to break Yanmen Pass."

"This violates the previous alliance with Zhenbei Hou. If Zhenbei Hou receives the news, he will definitely mobilize the Zhenbei Army."

"This will affect our plan to go south when the time comes."

Fan Shaohe looked at Mohe and said with a frown.

Some people don’t understand what Maha is trying to do?

They had made an agreement with the Marquis of Zhenbei before, and Beidi would pretend to attack Yanmen Pass, and then secretly attack the two defense lines of Jiuyuan and Mayi.

When the time comes, Zhenbei Hou will turn a blind eye and let them break through these two lines of defense and go south.

But at Yanmen Pass, Zhenbeihou made it very clear that they could only pretend to attack Yanmen Pass and could not really attack Yanmen Pass.

If Yanmen Pass is breached and the imperial court investigates, Zhenbeihou will not be able to explain to the imperial court.

This was also the way that the Marquis of Zhenbei, a bitch, still wanted to build an archway, secretly colluded with Beidi, and weakened the court's self-protection.

But now, seeing Mohe's posture, Fan Shaohe clearly wanted to break Yanmen Pass, which was different from the result they had achieved with Zhenbei Hou before.

After hearing Fan Shaohe's words, Maha looked at Fan Shaohe calmly: "Master Fan, do you think the Marquis of Zhenbei wants to use us to weaken the Zhou Dynasty to protect himself, will we do what he wants?"

"Now that he has contact with us, he has no way out."

"Don't be afraid to tell Mr. Fan that I have broken my mind at Yanmen Pass today."

"Even if he, the Marquis of Zhenbei, wants to retreat, it is too late. Once Yanmen Pass is broken, he, the Marquis of Zhenbei, will have no choice but to raise his flag to rebel and send troops with us."

"Unless he wants to be killed by the court."

"Otherwise, he has no other way to go."

When Fan Shaohe heard this, his expression changed.

He immediately guessed Beidi's plan.

It seems that even the Marquis of Zhenbei has plotted to get involved in Beidi. As long as the Marquis of Zhenbei turns a blind eye and lets the Beidi army break through the two lines of defense in Jiuyuan and Mayi, then the Marquis of Zhenbei doesn't even want to know about it.

It is impossible to raise a flag for rebellion and send troops together with Beidi.

Beidi will definitely take the opportunity to spread the news that the Marquis of Zhenbei has released them from Beidi to enter the Pass and go south.

When the time comes, the court will investigate and the Marquis of Zhenbei will have no choice but to rebel.

"Marquis of Zhenbei, Marquis of Zhenbei, you want to sit alone and watch Beidi and the imperial court fight in order to protect yourself."

"But little do you know that you are still being plotted by Beidi. It is impossible to survive alone."

Fan Shaohe thought secretly in his heart.

"How can I say that the same is true for the Marquis of Xiliang?"

Fan Shaohe thought of Xiliang again for a moment and asked.

Maha nodded without concealing anything; "We sent out so many soldiers and horses and united all four parties. Do you think it is as simple as just going south to plunder?"

"Dazhou has lost its former majesty. It's time for this fertile land to become our horse farm."

Maha looked at the battle with Yanmen closed and said with wandering eyes.

Fan Shaohe wanted to take revenge by killing the emperor of Zhou Dynasty, and they wanted to hunt the Central Plains and invade this fertile land.

It can be said that everyone gets what they need.

After hearing what Maha said, Fan Shaohe said nothing more.

All he wants is revenge and killing the emperor, and the rest is not important.

However, Beidi's plan might really mess up Da Zhou and avenge him.

The Marquis of Zhenbei and the Marquis of Xiliang were forced into the water, and they would not be able to rebel unless they raised their flags.

In addition, foreign races from all directions will hunt the Central Plains.

You can imagine what the situation in Dazhou would be like at that time.

Fan Shaohe and Beidi's plan was good, but they didn't know that now the Marquis of Zhenbei was dead and the Zhenbei Army was taken over by the imperial court.

It's not that easy for them to achieve their calculated goals.

…

On the city wall of Yanmen Pass.

The fighting continued, and bodies kept falling.

There are those from the Zhenbei Army and those from Beidi.

Soon, Beidi's attack was again repelled by the Zhenbei Army guarding Yanmen Pass.

Looking at the retreating Beidi aliens, a general whose armor was covered in blood shouted loudly to a general not far away: "Vice General Zhang, I asked you to send someone to ask for help from General He. Have you sent it yet?"

?”

"Why haven't reinforcements arrived yet?"

The general who spoke was none other than He Tong, the current commander-in-chief of Yanmen Pass and a distant relative of Hezhou.

The other Zhenbei troops at Yanmen Pass were not yet aware of the changes in the Zhenbei Army, but He Tong had already received the message from Hezhou in advance.

It was precisely because of Hezhou's message telling him to be careful of the Beidi aliens that He Tong was prepared to repel several attacks from the Beidi aliens.

Otherwise, Yanmen Pass would really be in danger now.

"General, the last general has sent four waves of troops to ask for help."

"The general doesn't know why reinforcements haven't arrived yet."

Vice General Zhang wiped the blood on his face and said.

It stands to reason that Zhenbeicheng and Zhenbei Army Camp are not far from Yanmen Pass. If you hurry up, you can get there in half a day.

But now it's been almost a day since they sent out a messenger asking for help, and they haven't seen a single reinforcement, which is a bit strange.

"Damn it, send people to ask for help immediately, send more people, be sure to be quick."

"Half of our 30,000 people have been killed or injured, and there are more than 200,000 aliens outside the pass."

"If the reinforcements arrive too late, we won't be able to hold this level."

He Tong said loudly.

Although they repelled several Beidi attacks with Yanmen Pass, they suffered many casualties.

Coupled with this is the disparity in the number of soldiers and horses between the two sides.

Even if all of their Zhenbei Army fights for their lives, they probably won't be able to hold on for long.

If reinforcements don't come, they really won't be able to hold the barrier in northern Xinjiang.

"Yes, General."

Vice General Zhang responded and quickly sent out several more messengers to ask for help.

…

Jiuyuan City.

Like Yanmen Pass, it is also a barrier in northern Xinjiang.

Jiuyuan City, Mayi, and Yanmen Pass form a barrier in northern Xinjiang.

However, unlike the flat terrain of Yanmen Pass, the roads in Jiuyuan and Mayi are rugged and narrow, making it difficult for large-scale army attacks.

If Yanmen Pass is the main entrance that controls the northern Xinjiang barrier, then Jiuyuan and Mayi are the side entrances guarded by the left and right sides.

While Yanmen Pass was attacked by Beidi, Jiuyuan was also attacked by foreign tribes from Beidi.

"kill."

On the walls of Jiuyuan City, the fighting shook the sky.

Corpses were strewn all over the ground, whether they were the Zhenbei Army stationed in Jiuyuan or the foreign tribesmen in Beidi, corpses could be seen everywhere on the ground.

Even some of the corpses were still young and strong.

Apparently, the young people in Jiuyuan City also went to the city to defend the city with the Zhenbei Army.

Soon, on the city wall, there were less than a dozen people still fighting with the Beidi aliens.

One of them, a Zhenbei Army commander wearing leather armor, hacked to death several Beidi aliens in succession, and his body was already riddled with holes and he was kneeling on the ground with a knife.

"Why is this happening?"

"Why did the Marquis just transfer the guard troops and horses, leaving only less than a thousand people, and the aliens from Beidi came to kill them?"

"why is that?"

The junior high school student in leather armor had blood flowing from the corner of his mouth and looked unwilling.

Originally, there were 10,000 Zhenbei Army defenders in Jiuyuan. The terrain here was difficult and the city walls were high. It was not a problem for the 10,000 defenders to stop the tens of thousands of troops.

However, a few days ago, Zhenbei Hou sent a general order and transferred most of the defenders here, leaving only less than a thousand people stationed here.

And this small colonel in leather armor is the general of less than a thousand men.

It was he, a small colonel, with the Zhenbei Army of less than a thousand people, and some young and strong civilians, who was able to withstand the attack of tens of thousands of Beidi troops for a day.

It's a pity that in the end, they were unable to stop the Beidi aliens.

They sent messengers asking for help and persisted, hoping for the arrival of reinforcements.

But in the end, when the junior high school student fell, no reinforcements were seen.

The primary school student couldn’t figure out what was going on until he died?

Why can't we see reinforcements all day long?

"puff."

A general from the Beidi foreign tribe chopped off the head of the junior colonel with a sword, and the remaining few remaining Zhenbei troops also died at the hands of the Beidi foreign tribe.

Jiuyuan was breached.

…

at the same time.

On the city wall of Mayi, the Zhenbei Army guarding the city was also completely wiped out.

The Zhenbei Army that previously guarded Mayi, like Jiuyuan, had most of its troops transferred away, leaving less than a thousand men to guard this place.

As a result, Mayi persisted for nearly a day, but was also defeated by the Beidi aliens.

These are all the openings that Xue Shaowen, the Marquis of Zhenbei, had previously opened for the foreigners in Beidi.

Less than a thousand Zhenbei troops were left to guard it. These were all abandoned by Xue Shaowen, the Marquis of Zhenbei.

If these Zhenbei army defenders, who fought bloody battles with the Beidi aliens and held off the attack of tens of thousands of Beidi aliens for nearly a day with just a thousand men, knew that they were abandoned sons of Xue Shaowen, the Marquis of Zhenbei, who knows what would happen

What do you think?

Maybe, they will feel very disappointed in their hearts!

Blood is spilled on the battlefield, but in the end, what is obtained is abandoned children. This has to be said to be a kind of sadness.
