"The Hexi soldiers are guest troops and cannot interfere with local military and political affairs. At this time, the situation at Qintong Pass is unclear, and it is difficult to counterattack with this small force. But if Commander Tu invites him, he may send troops to help Commander Tu gather the remaining soldiers on the periphery and monitor the refugee rebels. It is better to go directly to the Taiwei Mansion or Qinglong Valley to plead guilty!" Chen Hai suggested.
Qintong Pass was built between the Xiongshan Canyon and there were only two main gates in the east and west. Even if some generals could break through and fight out, not many horses would be brought out. Chen Hai sent more horses this time to prevent too many defeated soldiers who lost their mounts along the way, which would become a drag on their inconvenience in moving.
The Huben Army still retains the elites of the Fifth Division, but in order to prevent anyone from infiltrating into the Huben Army, Prince Yingdan, except for the troops banned in Suwei Palace, the main elite combat forces are stationed at the Qinglongyu Camp in the northeast of Yanjing, with a general manager of the Huben Army. Mansion.
Facing the unbelievable questions from Tu Ziji and Zhao Rong, Tu Chongjin could only smile bitterly...
After Dong Pan reminded him, Tu Ziji suddenly came to his senses and advised Tu Chongjin: "You should go to the Qinglong Valley Governor's Mansion to plead guilty."
Chen Hai looked at Dong Pan and shook his head slightly.
Dong Pan was close to Tu Chongjin and Tu Ziji, and he did not want the Tu family to lose a general.
Tu Chongjin and other generals also knew that their only chance at this time was to collect as many defeated troops as possible, as long as it was not so ugly or there was a possibility of saving their lives.
Chen Hai arranged for Tu Ziji and Zhao Rong to return to Fujiao Ridge on the north bank. Although the Xiyuan New Army could not act rashly without the order of the Taiwei Mansion, at this time, more civilian ships were requisitioned on the north bank and preparations for reinforcements on the south bank would not be affected. Unnecessary making things difficult and questioning.
Qintong Pass fell unexpectedly, and Tu Chongjin and other generals were guilty of a serious crime. However, these middle and low-level military attachés who fled Qintong Pass as soon as possible could not be completely disconnected. At this time, they were at a loss and saw the commander Tu Chongjin leading hundreds of elite cavalry. When reinforcements came from the direction of Yanjing City, they all gathered together.
Although Tu Chongjin and other generals were drugged and caught off guard, the tens of thousands of generals stationed at Qintong Pass were all elites of the Huben Army. Most of them had cultivation levels above Tongxuan Realm, and there were even middle- and low-level military attachés above Baiwu School Captain. Those with a cultivation level above the Spiritual Realm, no matter how caught off guard, can still rely on the special terrain such as the lanes in the city to organize defenses and counterattacks.
Before the news of the attack on Qintong Pass came back, Tu Chongjin and the others had already escaped from Meiwu Fort. Either the Huben army stationed at Qintong Pass had been corrupted to the extreme, or the refugee rebels who raided Qintong Pass were stronger than imagined. many.
"This is also a no-brainer." Dong Pan nodded.
"Dose medicine?" Tu Ziji didn't realize what was going on for a while. After learning that Qintong Pass had been captured like this, he was so shocked that he wanted to bite his tongue off.
As long as he doesn't take too many risks with the thousands of yamen soldiers in his hands, he is still happy to get a piece of the pie.
Chen Hai and Zhou Jun looked at each other, but they didn't expect that Tu Ziji didn't even know that Ni Ling San had been re-released a long time ago.
Although Qingpengniao has not yet cultivated to the point of transformation, it is already comparable to a strong human being in the late stage of Mingqiao Realm. It may not be able to rush into the thousands of troops of the refugee rebels at this time, but approaching Qintong Pass to reconnoiter the enemy's situation can help Chen Hai and others provide unimaginable vision and accurate information.
"Ni Ling San?"
Tu Chongjin looked depressed. He also knew that he would not be able to escape the crime of losing the city, but he did not want to lose his wife, children and children and run away alone.
Dong Pan decided to use Chen Hai as the main general and Wu Xiong as the general to command 500 elite cavalry, escort Tu Chongjin to the west and approach Qintong Pass to collect the remaining soldiers who broke out from Qintong Pass. Dong Pan decided to use Chen Hai as the main general, and he also valued Chen Hai. His adaptability to seize opportunities on the ever-changing battlefield is much better than Wu Xiong's.
The Hexi side still hopes that the world will be in chaos, so that there will be more opportunities in Hexi. The generals who protect the generals may have unimaginable ambitions.
However, Tu Chongjin was able to gather some of the remnant soldiers, and he had some direct lineage generals in his hands. Outside Qintong Pass, he showed an attitude of actively redeeming his merits. In order to avoid directly forcing Tu Chongjin and others to defect to the refugee rebels, the Taiwei Mansion and the Huben Army General Manager , usually allowing him to make meritorious deeds and not be in a hurry to chop off his head.
Dong Pan wants to stay in Meiwubao and take charge.
Prince Yingdan is in charge of the Taiwei's Mansion, and at the same time, as the general of the Hussars, he is in charge of the Huben Army's General Manager's Mansion, but generally speaking, Prince Yingdan has stronger control over the Huben Army's General Manager's Mansion, while the Taiwei's Mansion The officials and ministers of various departments are relatively complicated. The eight clans in Jingjun all have children who hold important positions in the Taiwei Mansion. They can't tell who supports the crown prince Ying Dan and who supports Emperor Yitian.
The guest army could not interfere in local military and political affairs at will, but Qin Tongguan was attacked by the refugees and fell. As long as Tu Chongjin came to rescue them, they could urgently send troops to join the war; even the Xiyuan Army did not need military orders from the Taiwei Mansion and could participate in the war nervously.
When the Qing Dynasty suppressed the rebellion of the Yulong Mountain refugees, they suffered heavy losses from Nilingsan. As a result, more than thirty inner disciples of the Taiwei Sect and a large number of Taoist disciples were surrounded and annihilated in Huanglongyuan Stone Village.
Chen Hai and the others galloped all the way westward for about an hour when they saw generals escaping eastward along the galloping road.
Tu Chongjin looked at the demeanor of Chen Hai and Dong Pan and knew that there was no chance of this matter. Hexi had more than a thousand elite yamen soldiers in Yanjing and would not take risks easily. Chen Hai trained the seventh capital of the Xiyuan New Army. Without the military order from the Taiwei Mansion, he would not risk his own future. He sighed bitterly: "I will go to the Taiwei Mansion to plead guilty!"
Before Du Junfeng was recalled to Hexi, Wu Xiong would never have accepted such an arrangement. However, during the conflict between Chen Hai and the Du family, both Shenhou and the Crown Prince arranged for Du Junfeng to avoid it, so Wu Xiong could barely accept such an arrangement.
"Commander Tu went to the Taiwei's Mansion to plead guilty. There may be something wrong. If he wants to apologize, he should rush to Qinglongyu to plead guilty," Dong Pan said. "Just send someone else to the Taiwei's Mansion to inform the military situation..."
In the time of two sticks of incense, the five hundred fine cavalry had been assembled. In addition to twenty light chariots, Chen Hai also brought more than four hundred fine cavalry raised by Taohuawu.
Without the transfer order from the Taiwei Mansion, Chen Hai did not dare to mobilize the new army of the Seventh Capital of Xiyuan to join the war without permission, except for the more than a hundred elite soldiers of the Guard Battalion as private soldiers; There is no way for the mysterious person behind the scenes to speak for him.
The Red Eyebrow Cult was behind everything. Chen Hai felt that they must first get rid of the stereotype of the refugee rebels as a ragtag group. If they rashly led troops to counterattack Qintong Pass, they would probably suffer a big loss.
Zhou Jun thought that Chen Hai once said that the powerful feudal lords of the border counties were probably very happy to see the refugees gathering on such a large scale. It was most likely that the powerful feudal lords of the border counties were deliberately conniving at it. He had not taken it seriously before, but seeing how Tu Chongjin and others treated Ni Lingsan was unprepared, and Tu Ziji, Zhao Rong and others were completely unaware of this. He sighed slightly in his heart, secretly feeling that Chen Hai had a deeper and more detailed view of the situation.
Meiwu Fort is only five hundred miles away from Qintong Pass. No one knows whether the refugee rebels will lose their minds and sweep towards Yanjing along the Chi Road. They must be prepared to resist the attack at Meiwu Fort.
In fact, Tu Chongjin and other generals were given forbidden drugs, and their true energy was injected into the spiritual pulse to hit their lungs and their combat power suddenly dropped to the point where they were worse than ordinary warriors. At that time, they were trapped in the mansion, and it was also because of these The spirit bird and many of his retinues loyally protected their master, and they managed to break out of the siege without losing their lives directly at Qintong Pass.
"Ni Ling Powder!" Tu Ziji and Zhao Rong were also extremely shocked. They were stunned for a while before they remembered what Ni Ling Powder was from their vague memories. They asked in shock, "How could the refugee rebels have something like Ni Ling Powder?" Planting a banned drug that has been extinct for hundreds of years?”
Chen Hai asked in surprise. At this time, seeing Tu Zhongjin and others bleeding from their seven orifices, the Qi in their bodies being disordered, and their true energy being depleted, he thought that this was because they had taken Niiling Powder, and then the true energy had reversed and boiled, then rushed into the spiritual pulse to hit the internal organs. Are there any injuries
It was unimaginable to him that Qintong Xiongguan, which could not be opened by tens of thousands of people, had fallen silently.
Dong Pan has a rugged appearance but a very delicate temperament. Otherwise, Hexi would not have let him serve as an envoy to handle Hexi's affairs in Yanjing. He and Chen Hai looked at each other and knew that this matter was too strange and must not be allowed to happen. Sent troops rashly.
"Thank you for your kindness!" Tu Chongjin calmed down his frightened thoughts and knew that Chen Hai and Dong Pan's suggestion was really for his own sake. It was probably the only way for him to get rid of the death penalty, so he immediately arranged for the two of them to go to Taipei separately. The Wei Mansion and the Qinglongyu Camp reported that he and a dozen of the remaining defeated generals stayed in Meiwu Fort, waiting for Dong Pan and Chen Hai to send troops to help him advance westward and gather the remaining soldiers.
At that time, the forbidden drug Nilingsan was re-introduced, and it was most likely controlled by the Red Eyebrow Cult. Chen Hai did not expect that Hexi did not notify Yanjing and surrounding counties of such critical information.
"When we lead a surprise attack at this time, we may be able to defeat the rebels and recapture Qintong Pass!" Wu Xiong didn't care about Tu Chongjin's disastrous defeat, but at this moment he thought that as guest troops, they had a huge opportunity in front of them.
Dong Pan, Wu Xiong and others also frowned. Tu Chongjin and the others were accidentally drugged, and their true energy reversed into the spiritual veins and were severely injured. They could break out and fight, which can be said to be a good life, but how could they be collectively killed without any care. Drugged
Tu Chongjin naturally hoped that Dong Pan and even Chen Hai could lead troops to help him recapture Qintong Pass, so that his responsibility for losing Qintong Pass would be greatly alleviated.
Most of these generals are middle and low-level military attachés and retinues. When Qintongguan is attacked, their mounts are by their side, so they can react in time to break out of the siege, and they can quickly get rid of the pursuers after breaking out of Qintongguan City and escape so quickly. .
Many of Tu Chongjin and other generals had spirit birds to take their place, but when they came out of Qintong Pass, most of the spirit birds were seriously injured. Only the green roc bird under Tu Zhongjin's crotch was unusually handsome and could continue to accompany the army in the battle.
Chen Hai sighed slightly and thought to himself, it seems that the Red Eyebrow Sect has been plotting against Qintong Pass for more than a day or two. It must be that the Qinxi Escort Agency has spent a lot of effort to curry favor with the guard of Qintong Pass before. Tu Chongjin and the others were completely off guard; the large number of refugees crowding outside Qintong Pass was most likely a conspiracy planned by the Red Eyebrow Sect.
In addition to a thousand elite Hexi Dao Yamen soldiers, Chen Hai and the others only had 200 guards available in Meiwubao, Taohuawu, and Fujiao Ridge, but at this time they were already no weaker than the Dao Yamen soldiers.
At this time, Tu Chongjin went to the Taiwei Mansion to plead guilty. The officials and ministers of the Taiwei Mansion who had enemies with him in the past were determined to punish him for the crime of losing the city. Prince Yingdan probably pushed Tu Chongjin out of the gate and beheaded him; and when he arrived at the Qinglongyu Camp , as long as someone intercedes for Tu Chongjin, the chance of survival will be greater.
