Chapter 680
Regarding the casualties in the First World War Army today, Sima Yi was heartbroken. He lost thousands of people, but gained nothing.Not even a single soldier of the Han army was killed, all the generals under the tent were silent, Sima Yi's face was gloomy and he said nothing.

"General, this Gao Siji ventured into Jincheng alone. I'm afraid he has some important information to inform Cao Cao. We have to guard against this!" When no one said anything, Fazheng stepped forward with his arms folded and suggested to Sima Yi.

Sima Yi slammed the crime and said: "I forgot about this matter. Gao Siji came to Jincheng, and he must have important information to inform Cao Cao. It may be a strategy against our army alliance. I have to go to Tuo Lei to discuss it!"

When Sima Yi came to the Mongolian camp, Tuo Lei was also talking about this matter with the generals at the moment.Tuo Lei asked Sima Yi to sit down, and said with a gloomy face, "What kind of information is this Gao Siji sending to Jincheng?"

The next king Xuance didn't say a word, but listened silently.

Sima Yi frowned tightly but shook his head and sighed, "I don't know, I've thought about everything possible, but I can't guess what kind of information Gao Sji can send!"

"Now the number of our two armies is more than 20, and Jincheng Cao Cao has no more than [-] troops. Even if Li Xianzhong comes to rescue, I can't beat the combination of our two armies." Tuo Lei stroked his beard and said: "No matter what information Gao Sji sends , as long as our two armies strictly defend, in the face of absolute strength, our coalition forces can be said to be unbreakable!"

Sima Yi nodded and said: "Okay, I will send scouts to patrol strictly after I go back, and your defense area must not be sloppy, Prince!"

"Don't worry, I have always been cautious in using troops!" Tuo Lei nodded.

After the discussion was over, Sima Yi said goodbye and left. Tuo Lei asked Wang Xuance, "Sir, I don't know how your discussions with the various leaders are going. When will you go to the Western Regions to open up business routes?"

Wang Xuance cupped his hands and said with a smile: "It has been discussed, we can go to the Western Regions in a few days, please rest assured the prince."

"Haha, wait for Mr. to make meritorious service, I will ask Father Khan for meritorious service, the Han people will not be crowned king, but when Mongolia wins the world, I will ask Father Khan to make you king!" Tuo Lei laughed loudly.

"Thank you, Prince, I promise to complete the task!" Wang Xuance flattered.

The leaders of all the countries in the Western Regions also congratulated them. In today's battle, they have seen the strength of the Han army.Not only Zhao Yun, Gao Siji, and Ma Chao are powerful, but also the soldiers and horses of the Han army.

Heavy cavalry, god arm bow!All this gave the leaders of the countries in the Western Regions the idea that the Han army could not be defeated.At this time, they didn't have any resistance to the big man who turned against him. On the contrary, they were a little lucky. How could Mongolia win with such a strong Han army?

…………

But Zhuge Liang stood on the top of the mountain to investigate after Gao Siji rushed to the battle.Witnessing the course of the great battle and seeing Gao Siji entering Jincheng safely from a distance, Zhuge Liang heaved a sigh of relief, and returned to Shangbang overnight to report to Li Xianzhong.

When Li Xianzhong received the news, he immediately summoned the generals and said, "General Gao has successfully entered Jincheng. Governor Cao will definitely make corresponding arrangements when he gets the news. I have decided to send all the troops to Jincheng tomorrow to wipe out Mongolian and Yizhou soldiers and horses in one fell swoop!"

"No!" All the generals bowed their hands and took orders.

Li Xianzhong divided his troops and sent generals: "General Yue, you are a fierce general in our army, so you will be the vanguard and lead five thousand cavalry to open the way!"

"The last general takes orders!" Xue Andu cupped his hands.

Zhuge Liang cupped his hands and suggested: "Commander, today General Gao rushed to the camp. The Mongolian and Yizhou soldiers must have guessed that our army was going to deliver information. According to the last general's guess, they will definitely patrol strictly. If they get the news of our army's dispatch , Yizhou soldiers and horses will definitely send troops to attack our army, we need to be careful and let the soldiers and horses advance alternately, don't be negligent!"

Li Xianzhong nodded and agreed, "That's right, even if victory is imminent, this battle will be a tough battle for our army, and we must not be negligent. If we are ambushed by the enemy, even if the leaders of the Western Regions turn their backs, Governor Cao may not be alone!
Youdu, you and General Yue are in command of the cavalry. The two armies advance alternately. Report every five miles. You cannot advance alone! "

"No!" Xie Xuan cupped his hands and accepted the order.

And at this moment, in the north of the Yellow River in Liangzhou, in Wuwei County, a strange army was galloping overnight.However, they were far away from the city, and most of the Mongolian army was in Jincheng, so no one noticed.

Li Jing led the way, followed by three generals, namely Lin Yu, Pei Jun, and Chen Dao.

"Wow!" A cavalryman from behind came quickly, cupped his hands to Li Jing and said, "General, the soldiers are all tired. Although there is one man with two horses, the horses can't stand it, let's rest!"

"Huh!" Li Jing pulled the reins, took a few breaths and said, "Okay, we will march three hundred miles in a few days, and the soldiers are tired, so let's rest!"

Li Jing, Lin Yu, Chen Dao, and Pei Jun dismounted from their horses, gathered together to share dry food, water and wine.

After Lin Yu finished eating the dry food, he asked Li Jing, "I said, general, there is a raging war in Jincheng right now. You led us across the Yellow River. I thought you were going to go back to the rear of the Mongolian army, but where are you going now?" ah?"

Pei Jun and Chen Dao also had doubts on their faces, marching three hundred miles a day, why are they so desperate?

Li Jing stroked his beard and smiled, "Haha, I was going to Yumen Pass!"

"Yumen Pass?" Lin Yu's face was full of doubts. Yumen Pass is the barrier to the west of Liangzhou, but it is thousands of miles away from Jincheng Battlefield. What's the use of going to Yumen Pass now?

Seeing that all the generals were puzzled, Li Jing explained: "Even if I go to the Jincheng battlefield right now, what can 1 horses do? Even if the general successfully defeated the Mongols, they could still escape to Wuwei and even retreat to Yumen Pass. The Yumen Pass cannot If it is taken down, the Mongols will always be the confidant of the big man."

"But what can we do if we took the Yumen pass with great effort, if there is a change in the battlefield of Jincheng, we will not be able to defend Yumen with our small force!" Lin Yu sighed.

"No, if you take Yumen Pass, you can defeat Mongolia. Do you know the situation of the countries in the Western Regions?" Li Jing asked with a smile.

"Countries in the Western Regions? I heard that among the countries in the Western Regions, the Mongols are levying and extorting money, and the people are miserable!" Lin Yu replied.

Li Jing nodded and said: "Yes, if we take Yumen Pass, the Mongols will not be able to retreat to the countries of the Western Regions, and the countries of the Western Regions will naturally not be coerced by the Mongols. When we go to the Jincheng battlefield, we will be able to instigate the leaders of the countries in the Western Regions." , In this way, the Mongolian soldiers and horses are bound to be defeated!"

The three people's eyes lit up when they heard it, yes, such a simple truth, why didn't they think of it?

It's just that Li Jing didn't know that the leaders of the Western Regions at this time had been successfully instigated by Wang Xuance.When he takes Yumen Pass, the Mongols will have nowhere to escape!
"Leading troops to fight does not necessarily have to fight head-on with the enemy. Sorting out the key points of the war, running long distances, and attacking the enemy's lifeline can also achieve the goal of victory!" Li Jing patiently explained to the three of them.

Lin Yu's eyes lit up, and now Princess Wannian came to Yanmen to look for him, but he was still unknown and had no meritorious service.In addition to the fact that Bingzhou has no battles to fight for the time being, the reason for his ability is that he uses soldiers like a god, and His Majesty will definitely lead him to fight in the north and south.

Obviously, it was due to lack of ability that Lin Yu's current status was not high, and Liu Bian was the emperor, so naturally he couldn't take his future son-in-law to get credit for him, and Lin Yu himself was willing to go through the back door.

Now hearing Li Jing's remarks, Lin Yu's eyes lit up, and he followed Lu Zhi to learn the art of war. Now he has reached a bottleneck. If he wants to go further, he only needs to practice on the battlefield, or learn from masters of art of war.

But now Bingzhou is not the time to go to war with Mongolia, and it is obviously impossible to hone on the battlefield.Therefore, only by learning the art of war from masters of the art of war can we go further, and Li Jing's knowledge of the art of war made Lin Yu admire him.

The capture of Ye City in the previous battle, and the capture of Yumen Pass in today's battle are all aimed at the enemy's lack of defense, but it is a vital lifeline. Lin Yu likes this way of fighting very much.

Lin Yu took a deep breath, bowed to Li Jing and said, "General Li, I have a merciless request at the end, please agree to it!"

"General Lin, please get up!" Li Jing was taken aback, he quickly helped Lin Yu up and said, "I don't know if General Lin has anything to ask for, but I will be able to do it, and I will definitely not refuse."

"I see the general's use of soldiers like a god, and I admire him deeply. I feel that I am not capable enough. I want to worship the general as my teacher and learn the art of war from the general. I don't know if it is possible!" Lin Yu clasped his hands and asked.

"This..." Li Jing said hesitantly: "General Lin, a young hero, has come all the way. He treats his soldiers like brothers, and he is also cautious in using troops. He is quite savvy. If I can take you as an apprentice, I will naturally wish for it, but I already have one. Disciple, it is Su Dingfang, I am in Taiyuan, and you are in Yanmen, I borrowed cavalry from General Yang for this trip, if I take you as an apprentice, I am afraid I will not have time to teach you the art of war!"

In fact, Li Jing still had one scruple that he didn't mention, and that was the relationship between Lin Yu and Princess Wannian.In the future, as Lin Yu, he will be a relative. As a member of the royal family, he will more or less be involved in future royal struggles, such as the prince's faction.

And Li Jing never participated in these struggles, and he didn't want to be involved, but once he got involved with Lin Yu, he didn't want to be involved, and it had something to do with it.

So even though Lin Yu was excellent, Li Jing didn't want to accept this apprentice from the bottom of his heart.But Chen Dao said that it was inconvenient for Li Jing to mention Pei Jun and Pei Jun. Even if they were not there, Li Jing might still say that to Lin Yu.

Lin Yu didn't know that there was such a level of knowledge, and immediately said: "General Li, as long as I can get your teaching, it doesn't matter if I don't have enough time. Lin Yu will definitely study hard and never embarrass you!"

Li Jing was silent, and his heart was very entangled. On the one hand, Chen Dao was more thoughtful. He had been in the Imperial Army and had seen many battles between Luoyang dignitaries. He soon understood Li Jing's scruples and teased Lin Yu The clothes said: "General Lin, General Li is testing you, why don't you talk about your ambitions!"

"Ambition?" Lin Yu is also a smart person. After Chen Dao mentioned this point, he immediately understood, and said: "General Li, I have been aiming at General Huo Qubing since I was a child, and I swear that the Huns will not be destroyed. Why do you think I am home? I am learning the art of war." , just to kill the thieves, defend the big man, and resign from office and go back to seclusion when the country is peaceful in the future..."

Lin Yu made it very clear, meaning that in the future, he would make great achievements in the future. After the big man stabilized, he would no longer be an official. Naturally, the battles in the court had nothing to do with him.

Li Jing looked at Lin Yu and said in his heart: "This kid is really smart, but I will explain clearly what happens in the future. Hey, there happened to be Yumen Pass, so I asked him to lead troops to attack. If he captured it, I would take him in." As a disciple, give him some credit, if he can't attack, it can only be said that he has no fate of master and apprentice!"

Li Jing thought of this and smiled: "Well, let me test you. Tomorrow Yinshi, you will lead five thousand soldiers to Yumen Pass, and I will go there at Maoshi. When our two armies meet, if you can take Yumen Pass, I will take you in." As a disciple, if you can’t take it down, then let it go. But one more thing, you march all the way, don’t let the soldiers complain, when the time comes, I will ask the soldiers, if they say you are eager to march, I will not succeed!”

There was only one hour between Yinshi and Maoshi, and now Li Jing's march had reached a limit, and if he increased his marching strength, the soldiers would suffer unspeakably.It is impossible for Lin Yu to increase the time to take Yumen Pass in terms of marching. In other words, Lin Yu is one step ahead, and after arriving at Yumen Pass, there is only one hour to take Yumen Pass. If he can't take it, Li Jing will not accept him for disciples.

Pei Jun looked annoyed, and begged: "General Li, this time is too little, right? The Yumen Pass is an important throat, and the defenders will definitely not move forward. We don't have siege equipment, and we are all cavalry. How can we attack it! "

"Thank you general for giving this opportunity to the general, and the general is willing to give it a try!" Lin Yu said with cupped hands.
