The Best Fake Eunuch

Chapter 200 A Big Game of Chess

The Xianbo people were very annoyed, but there was nothing they could do. In the end, they had to leave this place alone and continue to go south. Anyway, there were less than a thousand people inside, and there would be no great achievements.

The guard of Niutoushan is a thousand households called Wu Ming. As the name suggests, he was originally an unknown person, but unexpectedly showed his power at a critical moment and became the only famous general in Yanyun County who could resist the Xianbo cavalry!

Qin Gang was also very surprised by this, because he knew Wu Ming, although he could be regarded as a soldier, but he didn't have such a great ability, okay?

Good guy, with a force of less than a thousand men against 20,000 Xianbo cavalry, not only was he not defeated, but he even made some gains. In other words, even this general would never be able to do it!

He was so awesome.

The imperial court's awards came like snowflakes, and Wu Ming has been sealed to the position of the second-rank general soldier!

It's a pity that Niutoushan was alone in a precarious city, and it was hundreds of miles away from Yanyun Pass. The two parties had lost contact for a long time, and these commendations could not be delivered to Wu Ming.

This is great news for Xiao Chen, because their strategic concept is to first occupy Niutoushan as a foothold.

It is easy to defend and difficult to attack. If it is occupied by Xianbo people, it will not be easy to take it down. Now it will be fine. As long as you can reach Niutoushan, you can join forces with the defenders inside and win staged victories.

The other is the situation of the Xianbo people. There are almost 20,000 of them, all of them are light cavalry, and they move fast. Almost the same.

These guys are not only super powerful in combat, but the most terrifying thing is that they are extremely tenacious. One of the specific manifestations is that they can only take some dried camel milk as food, and they can persist for a long time.

Moreover, they can keep moving while eating. They will throw those hard dry camel milk into the water bottle, and as the horses march, they will melt the dry milk and drink it while shaking, relying on the nutrition of these water milk to maintain a considerable physical strength……

It is even more terrifying when it is reflected in specific combat.

For example, when they went south to attack the first city, the defenders immediately dispatched 800 miles of fast horses to report to the rear.

But when the quick horses arrived at the rear city, the Xianbo cavalry also followed, giving them no time to prepare for the battle!

Another reason why they are so fast is that each of them has at least three horses to ride in turn, so that they can maintain the strength of the horses and launch a fast attack at any time.

In other words, their number is only 20,000, but there are as many as 60,000 to 70,000 horses!

But this also made them face a big problem, that is, so many war horses need to consume a lot of grass every day.

Fighting in summer is no problem. Yanyun County is full of grasslands with lush water and grass, and it can also be dealt with in autumn. Although the grass is yellow, it is still enough for horses.

But it’s not good in winter. Once the heavy snow falls, it will cover the large pastures. Even if there is a lot of hay underneath, it will be difficult for the horses to eat.

So if they want to fight in winter, they must have a lot of enough hay.

In the summer, they drove the captured common people to harvest a lot of hay, and plundered a considerable amount of soybeans, black beans and a large amount of wheat straw as grain and grass reserves.

But Qin Gang didn't know how many there were. Judging from the situation of their gathering in Yanyun Mountain, maybe they really prepared enough food and grass for the winter.

There are also some gossips that are even more terrifying, saying that Prince Wanyan Pingqiu of Mojie is calling for all the tribes in the north to form an alliance and go south to join the Xianbo cavalry to attack Da Zhou together.

Although it is gossip, sometimes the gossip is surprisingly accurate. If it is true, then Yanyun Pass is in danger. Not only Yanyun Pass, but also the northern portal of the entire Great Zhou may be completely opened.

If Tianxuanhui would then raise troops from the southeast to respond, Dazhou would face the dangerous situation of being attacked from the north and the south at the same time!

Coupled with the internal and external cooperation of the rebels everywhere, the covetous Dongpu is waiting for an opportunity, and the Ross people who want to take advantage of the advantage will take advantage of the situation. The vacillating southern countries may also take the opportunity to make trouble, and even the countries of the Western Regions will follow suit...

Then the world will be in chaos!

Li Wanjiang couldn't handle it even though he had three heads and six arms.

Of course, this is the worst-case scenario, and it may not happen, but the crisis is imminent.

Qin Gang has been restless for the past few months, and has repeatedly asked the emperor to send troops to strengthen the defense of Yanyun Pass as soon as possible, but so far the emperor has not sent a single soldier...

Oh, no, it was sent, but the ones who were sent were Xiao Chen, a world-renowned talent, a first-rank eunuch, and thousands of mobs.

This made Qin Gang very annoyed, when is it, cousin of the emperor, are you still playing this kind of trickery?

Dazhou Jiangshan belongs to you, not our Qin family!

Qin Gang even thought that Li Wanjiang did this on purpose, that he wanted to use the hands of Xianbo people to consume his own troops, and even directly annihilate his entire army.

Perhaps in Li Wanjiang's view, although Yanyun Pass is very important, it doesn't have to be guarded to death, because there is Wolong Pass in the south.

Even if Yanyun Pass is lost, the northern tribes will inevitably suffer heavy casualties, and it will be difficult to continue southward to attack Wolong Pass for a while.

At that time, Fengyang King's army, who will get enough rest and replenishment, will move northward and defeat the northern tribes in one fell swoop!

Yanyun Pass is a natural danger in the northern border. It is difficult to attack from north to south, but it is easy to break through from south to north. Besides, the soldiers of the northern tribes are not good at defending the city...

If Li Wanjiang was really playing this game of chess, it would be really frightening.

So under the current situation, Xiao Chen, as an inconspicuous pawn in this big game of chess, is very important.

The old coach Li Wanjiang originally wanted this little pawn to rush across the river to die, but suddenly found that this little pawn seemed to be of some use to him, so he was a little hesitant.

But almost half of the taxis, horses and cannons next to the old man hoped that this little pawn could cross the river smoothly, so that they could relieve their own pressure a little.

The Empress Dowager, Li Shi, Xue Jinshan, Qin Gang, and even Li Wanyun who is far away in Jiuxi are all listed here.

Because they are not small pawns, and they don't want to be at the mercy of others...

On the treacherous and undercurrent chessboard, almost everyone's eyes were fixed on Xiao Chen.

But what's interesting is that he himself doesn't seem to feel much pressure.

Seeing that Xiao Chen could remain calm in such a situation, Qin Gang found it inconceivable. This kid is either a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, or he is just a fool who doesn't understand anything!

But I don't know that our Xiao Chen is just being bold.

His coming here is just a big gamble, needless to say, if he loses the bet, he will die. If he wins the bet, hehe, then you all just wait and see my wonderful performance!
