Chapter 19: A wolf laugh (sparrow)

Queshu Valley is called "Lingshi Platform" in geology. The Fen River flows through the Lingshi area for 46 kilometers, with a drop of 124.5 meters. The form is rugged and steep. It turns back and forth, stands on the cliffs, and the flowing water is turbulent.

Queshugu means a valley road where sparrows are difficult to fly in winter and mice are difficult to run in summer. The tortuous mountain road stretches along the river valley near the foot of the mountain.

The ancients were afraid to avoid the Queshu Valley—especially when the summer and autumn flood seasons became more difficult and dangerous, or when the main army was heavily fortified and the guest army was unable to rush forward, they had to detour and take the mountain road, so there was a "thousand-mile path" and "ruling army river". Say.

The Thousand Mile Trail is located on the east line of Queshu Valley, the east bank of Fen River, and the west foot of Huoshan Mountain. It is connected with Fenshuiguan and Jiqiyuan. It is generally earth and rocky mountains. The phenomenon of divergence often occurs, and even the ambiguities in ancient literature records are repeated and uneven, making it "difficult to know the true face of Lushan".

"Tongjunchuan" is located on the west side of Queshu Valley, and it is a remote mountain road that was changed when Queshu Valley and the Thousand Mile Trail were unable to ride. The three roads are the approaching throats of the Northern Qi army going south to support the attack on Pingyang. At this time, the northern front with Jiqiyuan as the center of the Northern Zhou Dynasty was guarded by the Yuwen Constitutional Department who guarded the Queshu Valley and the Yuwen Sheng Department who guarded the Fenshui Pass. The Yuwen pure department is composed, and the unified command is Qi Wangyu Wenxian.

It is said that after Emperor Wu Wenyong of the Northern Zhou Dynasty won Pingyang, he expected that Emperor Gaowei of the Northern Qi Dynasty would not give up. He would personally lead the army to conquer the land of Gaohuan and Longxing. The people will oppose it.

Yuwenyong weighed the pros and cons, and decided to take the second part of Wei Xiaokuan’s "Three Strategies for Pingqi", leaving ten thousand elite soldiers to defend Pingyang, and tens of thousands of soldiers as guards, and finally settled in Suchuan to support Pingyang and keep the army. Stationed on the east bank of the Yellow River, he returned to Chang'an by himself to handle some urgent business duties.

Ten thousand elite soldiers are the bait, biting a big fish in the northern Qi, and tens of thousands of elite soldiers are fishing rods, shaking the fish back and forth. When the exhaustion of walking the fish is exhausted, Yuwenyong will wave the army again, waiting for work, completely level. .

But the emperor Yuwenyong walked very slowly, so that after hearing the news that the soldiers of Gaowei Jinyang worshipped the ancestors and sacrificed the flag, Yuwenxian secretly sweated for the emperor, and sent out several memorials to ask the emperor to leave quickly. While frowning and looking at the rugged terrain of Chishu Valley, he decided to divide his troops into three groups. Suspicious soldiers were set up at the mouth of Chishu Valley to delay the journey of the Northern Qi army for a day or half a day. Personally, set a trap from the sinkhole all the way.

Yu Wensheng, who rode ten thousand guards at Fenshuiguan, sent a capable unit out of Queshugu, and set up several new camps in Taniguchi. Each camp was neatly packed and built up with densely packed cypress branches. The soldiers’ barracks, called Bai’an in the ancients, were often set up with gongs, drums and military flags, and illusions of troops were arranged along the way, and the roads were blocked with boulders, baggage, and logs.

"Yuwensheng, Yuwensheng!" Yuwenxian watched as Yuwensheng led the way, exclaiming again and again: "Leading soldiers in wars must be cleverly scheming. Soldiers come and go and stay uncertain. You can do it by chance! You set up camp, Don't set up tents, do more Bai'an, and tell the Northern Qi army that the barracks are still being used, making Gaowei suspicious and hesitant."

"General, don't worry!" Yu Wensheng rode his horse away.

Yuwenxian ordered Yuwenchun to shrink his forces from a thousand miles away and concentrate all his efforts on setting up traps in the tiankeng. Also known as the marching governors, Yang Su and Li Che, ambush troops south of Jiqiyuan. Then Yuwenxian led two thousand elite cavalry, stationed on the flank of Yuwensheng.

Emperor Gao Wei led the army to the mouth of Queshu Valley. From a distance, he saw Yu Wensheng leading his army in front of him. He looked up at the sky. The setting sun was red and he had no intention of attacking. He sent a team of elite soldiers to try the attack, and Yu Wensheng rushed to kill. . Hearing the shout, Yu Wenxian gave an order, and the two thousand spirits rushed towards Ji Qiyuan, dragging the branches of the tree. The Northern Qi also saw dust rising from the valley flanking the Northern Zhou Army, and they retreated sharply. Yuwen drove his troops to pursue and kill, many gains were made. When Emperor Gao Wei saw that the Northern Zhou army had been prepared for a long time, he left all the elite soldiers to monitor, and divided 10,000 troops to attack a thousand miles away. The army camped on the spot and waited for the attack tomorrow.

Yu Wensheng took advantage of the night and led the army to retreat to the Gaoliang Bridge on the south bank of the Fenshui River, waiting for Emperor Gaowei to lead his troops to attack.

As soon as the army settled down, Emperor Gaowei's golden tent was lit up, and the surrounding bonfires suddenly burned. The gongs and drums were beaten, the pipa rang, and the Yan Women Supervisor Group performed naked one by one, Gao Wei joked and smashed, and the crashing white fish and yellow croaker bumped in the air.

In the early morning of the next day, Helan Leopard led his team to meet. Emperor Gao Wei asked Helan Leopard to lead his troops to kick the camp. Helan Leopard shouted, tens of thousands of army roared, and found that Zhou Jun had already withdrawn.

"An empty city plan!" When Helan Leopard came back to report, Emperor Gao Wei shook his head while listening, and ordered the army to pass through the Sparrow Valley.

Before Yu Wenxian came out of Jiqiyuan, he encountered the Northern Qi Emperor Gaowei personally led an army to attack Gaoliang Bridge. He hurriedly deployed his army along the bank of Fenshui River, and the two armies faced each other across the river. Seeing that it was too late, Gao Weidi didn't want to rush to attack. Feng Xiaolian, who had not seen the confrontation between the two armies before arriving at the battlefield, rode a scarlet sweaty BMW and put on a gold chain armor, and walked to the front of the battlefield, Beiqi The army cheered and shouted thousands of years ago. Morale suddenly rose. Emperor Gao Wei's blood boiled and winked. The Northern Qi commander Duan leaped out of the battle and shouted across the river:

"Who is your last name and name to stop my celestial army?"

"I am the Governor of Yihou!" Yu Wenxian replied heartily, hovering over the Fenshui River.

"Listen to the chief governor, you are not human..." Duan Chang smiled right.

"You're not a human being!" Yu Wenchun cursed loudly.

"The governor is not a mortal!" Duan Chang laughed and said, "Why do you conceal your true identity if you don't change your surname or sit down?"

"Hold your oil, sir has good eyesight!" Yu Wenxian laughed: "Since my husband's first glance tells us, it means that the two of us are destined. I am the emperor's prince and brother Qi Wang, and I am going to make friends..."

"Yuwenda!" Feng Xiaolian roared in surprise and ran over.

"A thousand years old, not a barbarian, but Qi Wangyu Wenxian!" Duan Chang galloped forward, pulling Feng Xiaolian's horse.

"The big barbarian has repeatedly disturbed my border, and I will get it!" Feng Xiaolian deliberately concealed his gaffe.

Yu Wenxian's two thousand cavalry stood calmly on the south bank of the Fenshui River. Yu Wenxian looked at Wang Yi and Yu Wenchun beside him, and the three of them smiled at each other. Although most of the troops of the Northern Zhou Dynasty withdrew to their place of origin, Yuwen Yong was still in Pingyang. To ensure the emperor’s absolute safety, Yu Wenxian deliberately defrauded others and then revealed his identity as King Qi in order to attract Northern Qi. Attention, tightly entangled the Northern Qi army in Jiqiyuan, so that the Northern Qi would no longer interfere with Yuwenyong's retreat. At this time, Yuwenyong sent an order to retreat, and Yuwenxian did not retreat, nor did he not retreat. He considered the wonderful way to retreat under the coercion of the heavy soldiers.

As a traffic channel and strategically congested Queshu Valley, it should be about 70 kilometers long from Jiexiu in the north, Lingshi in the middle, and Huozhou in the south (Jiexiu, Lingshi, and Huozhou are the names of counties and cities in Shanxi province). From west to east, it is composed of three parallel roads including Choshu Valley Road, Qianlijing Mountain Road and Tongjun Chuanjian Road.

The Queshu Valley of the Fen River Canyon is a typical canyon between the Taiyue and Luliang mountain ranges, and the Fen River runs through it. It is located between the Taiyuan and Linfen basins. The ancient direction is Jinzhong and Jinnan. Strategy is heavy.

In order to buy time, the three of them are willing to risk their lives and stick to the Fenshui River, to buy opportunities and time for the retreat of the whole army and a carefully planned ambush.

When I heard that the Qi Wang Yuwenxian of the Northern Zhou Dynasty was on the opposite side, the Qi army was all overjoyed. Everyone understood that after Yuwen Yong’s diligence, Yuwenxian was Yuwenyong’s personal guard. It's not far. Emperor Gao Wei also knew the mystery deeply. He quickly convened an imperial meeting and decided to attack. Helan Leopard volunteered to serve as the commando leader, and the mountain rose volunteered to be the platoon leader of sharp knives. He led a total of 2,000 soldiers to attack Yuwenxian and shake the Fenhe line of defense in the Northern Zhou Dynasty. At that moment, he suddenly leaped and charged, and two sharp knives entangled Yu Wenxian tightly, pulling out Yu Wenyong, who was lurking deep, to vent his anger.

When the wine bowl broke to the ground, all the death squad mounted their horses and turned their horses' heads, and the people were stunned. Feng Xiaolian was riding Hongchen to stop him, and actively asked Ying to be a knives cavalry who sacrificed his life to kill the enemy. Isn't this just blocking and adding chaos. Helan Leopard said angrily: "Thousand-year-old lady, it's a man's business to fight a war..."

"Mother, too, born to a wife!" Feng Xiaolian was reluctant to forgive.

"Thousand-year-old lady, you can forgive your man!" Helan Leopard couldn't laugh or cry: "A marching war is not a killing of a family. It is easier to bring your old man, but it is harder to protect your old man than to go to the sky..."

"Helan Leopard, am I so young?" Feng Xiaolian clenched her brows.

"Thousand-year-old lady, you are alive!" Helan Leopard shook his head and waved his hand: "Assault, it's not about traveling around the mountains..."

"I promise not to drag everyone down..." Feng Xiaolian's eyes were frowned upon.

"You are dragging your feet!" Helan Leopard sighed in a long and short voice: "My mother, the commando brought a woman to the battlefield, just to urge you!"

"What are you talking about? Do you dare to insult and tease me?" Feng Xiaolian drew out Shangfang's sword, slashing at Helan Leopard.

"Come on!" Helan Leopard dodged, shouting, three thousand elite soldiers sparkling, stab Yu Wenxian.
