In another place, Meng Hun led the army to stagger the enemy's army and sneaked towards Jiamen Pass.
They and Jiang Pengji had agreed on sight, using the sound of arrows as the command to attack, and concentrated their forces to break through the barrier.
Tonight is a new moon, the sky is extremely dark, and it is easy to make mistakes in timing.
Just when Meng Hun was nervously waiting for the news, the messenger came in a hurry and told him.
"Meng Xiaowei, there is an arrow in the direction of the camp."
Meng Hun was stunned for a moment, and he said, "This is definitely not our order, go check it out again, and report back as soon as there is any news."
The messenger was ordered to retire, and it didn't take long for him to return.
"There was a fire in the direction of our camp, depending on the situation, the enemy had already rushed into the center of the camp..."
In the dark night, the horizon has been rendered a glow of orange red, like the last glow of sunset.
Meng Hun got up in shock, walked to the high ground and looked in the direction of the camp, where a fire really ignited.
"The banging arrow just now should have been fired by the enemy..."
With his good eyesight and the strong flames in the distance, Meng Hun could vaguely see the shadowy black dots.
Just based on the fire, Meng Hun could also guess the tragic situation there. Fu Wang would definitely lose his troops this time, and the Meng family would also lose all his shorts.
Meng Hun suppressed the joy in his heart, but the corners of his lips still curled up uncontrollably.
Meng Shi lost his wife and lost his troops. The loss of more than 10,000 troops is not bad. If even the strongest generals were lost, it would be a loss to the grandmother's house. He coughed lightly and asked the messenger with a serious face, he said, "Is there any movement at Jiamen Pass?"
The messenger shook his head and said, "I have been sending people to watch, and it is still peaceful so far."
Meng Hun said, "Go to explore again. If the lord sends a signal, he must support him as soon as possible."
The camp was burning so vigorously that the movement could be seen even from a distance, as if a cloud of orange-red paint pushed the thick ink back three feet.
The terrain of Jiamen Pass is relatively high, and it will not take long for the enemy to discover the fire in the camp, and the lord in the pass will naturally see it.
Meng Hun was certain that he would receive the signal from Jiang Pengji soon.
At this moment, the guards in Jiamen Pass also noticed a strange burning cloud in the sky.
However, they didn't realize that Fu Wang had a plan, and thought that Fu Wang led the army to victory and burned Jiang Pengji's camp.
The soldiers guarding the gate discovered the abnormality in the distance, and immediately passed the news to the generals who stayed behind.
Because of the uneven distribution of military merit, Fu Wang could only bring the elites who were close to the Meng family this time, but his cronies had to hide for a while.
However, he is also relieved to hand Jiamenguan to his confidant who has fought together for many years.
Upon receiving the news that Jiang Pengji's camp was on fire, the confidant had no doubts, and his thoughts were similar to those of the soldiers.
This can't blame him for being careless, it's really Fu Wang who went to the battlefield and has never failed.
Because Fu Wang was born a little brave and strong, others saw his appearance and always thought that he was a reckless man with only muscles and no brains, but he was not. This man is cunning and suspicious. He has always regarded war as hunting, and he is quite patient when he is squatting on his prey.
As long as the opportunity is not ripe, no matter how noisy the outside world is, he can stay motionless, as stable as a sensible person.
For example, when Fu Yang was seriously ill back then, just after Fu Yang's first seven days passed, the Meng family came to win over him, and wanted to collect the troops left by Fu Yang.
The rumors outside are not without basis. How many people suspect that the death of Fu Yang was the work of Meng Shi
Even though this matter has nothing to do with the Meng family, Fu Yang and the Meng family are mortal enemies of each other, and the Meng family came to poach after his first seven, which is too much!
At that time, all the cronies around him thought that Fu Wang would explode, and they would fight Mengshi to the death. What happened
In the end, Fu Wang calmly accepted Meng's wooing, preserved Fu Yang's former elite, hibernated with peace of mind, and cultivated power.
In order to achieve the goal, Fu Wang is too patient.
With such a style and a very high force value, Fu Wang is quite popular on the battlefield, and he has made great contributions to the Meng family, and he is still undefeated.
"No need to panic, first stabilize the situation in the customs."
Fu Wang's pawns had blind trust in their generals, and they never thought in their minds that the generals would be defeated.
"Send a team of people to check on the front line. After all, Liu Xi is not a mediocre person like the governor of Wolong County. She will not give up resistance easily."
Everyone firmly believed that Fu Wang would win, but thinking about Liu Xi's previous record, they were vaguely uncertain.
To be on the safe side, it is better to send people to the front line to investigate. If the troops brought by the general are not enough, they should also prepare for reinforcements.
Just as he was talking, there was a commotion outside, and the noise could be heard in the hall.
"Who's making noise outside?"
Hearing the movement, Fu Wang's confidant raised his eyebrows, his face full of anger.
Wild wolves like to live in groups. Although they are not the strongest among the beasts, they are seen in groups, with extraordinary combat power and strict discipline within the group.
Influenced by the wild wolf, Fu Wang was extremely strict in governing the army, and he was regarded as the most ruthless among the Meng clan's retainers.
Under normal circumstances, no soldier would dare to blatantly violate military discipline.
The noisy soldiers were arrested, but the other party did not dare to delay, and breathlessly reported, "Lieutenant General, there is a fire in the pass!"
Fire inside the gate
The left-behind confidant's eyes twitched, and a cold yin qi rose in his heart.
"What's on fire?"
He strode out, looked up from a high place, and sure enough, he saw a fire coming out of Jiamen Pass.
"Who the hell set the fire?"
The soldier replied, "I don't know yet, but the fire had already warmed up when I discovered it."
At this time, another soldier came to report.
The arsonist has been found.
"Reporting to the deputy general, the envoys sent by Liu Xi escorted to rebel, and are now heading towards the closing door."
"What?" Hearing this news, the man's heart sank, and the chill spread to his entire chest. He thought of a possibility, and hurriedly said, "Could it be that those guards discovered that Liu Xi's camp had changed, and that's why... no, hurry up. Send someone to stop them!"
Just after he issued this order, a dozen high-pitched bamboo whistles sounded above Jiamenguan.
Looking in the direction from which the sound came from, I could vaguely see a dozen or so banging arrows.
This time, the general who stayed behind dispelled the guess just now, and more ominous thoughts followed.
The actions of the hundreds of guards were not accidental, nor did they act only after seeing the change in Liuxi's camp. It was clearly premeditated!
Thinking of this, he quickly mobilized his soldiers to stop Jiang Pengji and others from approaching the closing.
"Report-"
The messenger stretched his voice and galloped over on horseback. After dismounting, he didn't even catch his breath, and hurriedly clasped his fists and knelt down.
"Reporting to the deputy general, a large number of enemy troops suddenly appeared outside the customs, the number is unknown!"
The left-behind general's face was pale and pale, and he subconsciously looked at the orange-red "fire cloud" in the sky.
"This is Liu Xi's trick!"
"No, General is in trouble!"
There was a sudden fire in the city, the guards dispatched by Liu Xi rushed to the pass, and an unknown number of enemy troops appeared outside. This was clearly a premeditated plan. If so, it means that Liu Xi did not fall into the general's scheme at all, but instead the general fell into the other's scheme!
"Organize the army, meet the enemy!"
Jiamenguan can not be lost!
