Lu Ming guessed that most of this matter had something to do with King Fu, after all Zhu Zhining's stupid mind was good at calculating, and this woman was obedient to King Fu.

Thinking of King Yun and the person in his house, he couldn't help but feel worried.

After thinking twice, he looked at Lu Xiuyuan firmly, and said in a deep voice: "There is no need to spread this matter first, Xiuyuan, since you have returned to Beijing, you will stay in Beijing for the time being, and I will find a way to arrange for you to go to Dali Temple. Protect the safety of girl Rujin and Qian's mother and son."

"Brother"

Lu Xiuyuan was worried about Ye Chengwei.

"He's my son and I'm sure he won't let me down."

Lu Ming frowned and sighed: "If he can't even get through this dangerous situation, he is indeed a debtor to His Majesty's grace. Right now, Rujin can only suffer for a few days in prison, and he can stay here for a while." When the time comes, I will immediately enter the palace to face the saint."

Lu Xiuyuan knew that his uncle had always acted calmly, so he didn't say any more, cupped his hands and said, "Please rest assured, uncle, my nephew will definitely protect Miss Hua."

"Go."

Lu Ming waved his hand, dismissed the father and son, and sat alone in the study, hiding all the evidence.

The scorching summer makes the already arid Mobei area even hotter.

Ye Chengwei led the army to Datong, and learned that all the dangerous border points had been occupied by the Tartars, but Zhang Xian closed the city gates tightly, ordering 15 troops to guard the city, and had no plans to reinforce Xixing Pass.

Once Xixingguan falls, it will be Xinzhou, where there are hundreds of thousands of people.

Moreover, if Xinzhou is breached, it will open the door to the entire northwest, and the enemy can drive straight in.

"Marshal, although Your Majesty has dispatched [-] troops, half of them have yet to gather and arrive. Right now, we can only rely on the Datong Mansion. Should we first send someone to meet Zhang Xianzhi and let him lead the army to help?"

Looking at the boundless desert, Qi Feng thought of Luo Chuhuai's exhortation, and respectfully asked for instructions.

"This person has been guarding the frontier for many years, and he is a soldier with self-respect. I'm afraid he has long since disobeyed the imperial court's orders."

Ye Chengwei looked into the distance and said with a sneer: "I was ordered to rush to the rescue of Xinzhou, but His Majesty did not order him to come to the rescue. Right now, the entire Yanmen Pass has been cut off by the enemy. The enemy's situation is unknown, and no one knows the situation of Xinzhou City." , the same as the state government, if he uses this as an excuse, we can't refute it, and if he will not accept the orders of the foreign emperor, he will never send troops rashly."

"If he doesn't send troops, it may be difficult for us to deal with the enemy with our 5 troops."

Qi Feng said anxiously: "The general heard that this time Hu Kemo gathered 45 troops from various northern tribes to go south, and I also heard that General Qin's 8 horses have all surrendered. I am afraid that such a lonely army will have no chance of winning."

"I have always heard of General Qin. He would rather die in battle than become a prisoner."

Thinking of Yan Huaqing's matter, Ye Chengwei speculated that the leak of the marching route might have something to do with Zhang Xian, and said firmly: "Detour through Tongzhou, enter Jinyang, and then go straight to Yanmen Pass."

"The commander-in-chief is honest. The general did not expect that the commander-in-chief would inform the general of the marching route at this time."

Qi Feng looked at him in surprise.

"There is no need to doubt people, and no doubt about employing people. General Qi has been with the governor for many years in the Northern Expedition. Although the positions are different, I have never doubted my heart to serve the country."

Ye Chengwei said calmly: "And if the same mistakes really happen again, and General Qi is buried with him, I have nothing to worry about."

"The commander-in-chief deserves to be valued by His Majesty, and this determination will be admired in the end."

Qi Feng clasped his fists and replied: "The last general is willing to go out with the general, even if it is a corpse wrapped in horse leather."

"it is good."

Ye Chengwei nodded gratifiedly: "Right now, the only way to convince Zhang Xian to send troops is to join forces with General Qin and find out the reality of Xinzhou. If he pushes back at that time, the court will automatically There is a conclusion."

After setting the marching route, he made a desperate plan to go straight to Yanmen Pass.

After marching in secret for more than ten days, Ye Chengwei ordered the army to slow down and walk slowly as they were about to reach the pass.

Looking at the situation in the surrounding area, Qi Feng always felt that something was wrong, so he quickly reminded: "Marshal, the pass is too quiet, I'm afraid there will be ambushes."

"I feel so too."

This was something he had already expected: "Although it is a detour to Jinyang, the only way to enter Xinzhou is to go through Yanmen Pass. Otherwise, we may lose all our troops before reaching the city of Xinzhou."

"Since this is the case, why did the commander order the whole army to detour to Jinyang?"

Qi Feng was a little puzzled.

"because I like it."

Ye Chengwei replied with an unscrupulous expression.

He traveled for more than ten days on the road and concealed his tracks. Although the enemy would eventually notice him when he arrived in the desert, the extra time would not only make the enemy suspicious, but also catch him unexpectedly.

Most importantly, if someone in the DPRK and China really colluded with Beiguo, it would also create a rift between them.

"General Qi, let's take a gamble. I bet that the current Yanmen Pass will only have 20 troops at most."

Ye Chengwei said in a relaxed tone.

"At the end of the road, the general also heard about it. Hu Kemo learned that we are going to enter Xinzhou from Jinyang, and strengthened our guard along the way. If we know that our army has arrived at Yanmen Pass without anyone noticing it, I'm afraid it will be difficult to rush to help. It will take some time."

Knowing that there are tigers on the mountain and preferring to go to the mountain, no ordinary person would have expected that Ye Chengwei would continue to choose to re-enter Yanmen Pass.

But even so, Qi Feng still couldn't help being a little worried: "20 mana is several times that of ours, let alone our army marching all the way in a hurry."

"Don't panic."

Ye Chengwei waved his hand and said: "As long as the army's morale is not disturbed, we will be able to secure victory."

Looking around at the whole army, he said slowly and generously: "General Qi, pass on our military order, speed up the march and go through the Yanmen Pass with all your strength, those who disturb the morale of the army will be killed without mercy, and those who escaped will be killed without mercy, you lead the large formation of the Chinese army to supervise the formation personally .”

After the words fell, he grasped his saber tightly, tightened his reins and rushed forward with all his might.

Qi Feng knew that if he didn't pass through the pass as soon as possible, when the enemy rushed to help, everyone would only fall into a dilemma.

Seeing Ye Chengyu leading the way and approaching the pass, he plunged the red-tasseled spear straight into the ground, drew out the sword at his waist, and ordered loudly: "Come to the battle with the commander."

All of a sudden, the hooves of the horses neighed, the horses galloped, and the whole Mobei was shaken.

Just when the former army arrived at the pass, suddenly thousands of arrows were fired in the air, and the rain of arrows poured into the formation, shooting towards the formation.

However, under the leadership of Ye Chengwei, the army of the Daye Dynasty was like a broken bamboo, and they went forward without hesitation, ignoring the ferocious rain of arrows.

Ye Chengwei led the front army to escape the rain of rolling stones and arrows, and successfully passed the pass. He watched the soldiers behind him fall down, and some crawled and continued to move forward. But at this time, he had no time to care about the soldiers who died heroically. Looking at the boundless desert, you can see the flags trembling everywhere, and the mountains and plains are full of enemy troops waiting in full battle.

He tightened the reins, pulled out his sword and pointed straight ahead, shouting with pride: "Soldiers, in front is the Tartar army that slaughtered my brothers and feet, and everyone has seen it. Behind is a deep abyss. If you go back, you will definitely die. As long as we break through the last line of defense, we can reach Xinzhou City, where our brothers are."

As soon as this remark came out, the generals who rushed out were all filled with righteous indignation, and they all echoed: "The final general is willing to follow the commander in chief to swear to the death to break out of the encirclement."

"Hey, how can this be called breaking out of the encirclement?"

Ye Chengwei smiled casually: "The Tartar army is just a mob. How can it compare to my army from the Celestial Dynasty? It's uncertain who surrounds who."

Under his encouragement, the morale was even higher, and everyone no longer had the slightest fear of the enemy troops in front of Wuyang Wuyang.
