When Wu Nian led Feng Chong's Wanhu cavalry to Ke County.
It was as easy as piercing the window paper with your fingers and entering the city easily. But just to be cautious.
Feng Chong's men entered the city first. After taking control of the city defense and making sure no one was ambushing. Wu Niancai came to the city gate.
A group of civil and military officials greeted Wu Nian at the city gate, bowed and saluted: "General."
Wu Nian was very calm and not at all arrogant. He calmly turned over and dismounted, and said politely: "Excuse me, everyone." Then he raised his head and asked: "Who is Qian Neng, the governor of Liaodong?"
The civil and military officials looked at each other, and then a middle-aged official stood up, cupped his hands and replied: "Report to the general. Qian Neng drank poison. He died."
Wu Nian was surprised for a moment, and then sighed: "Unexpectedly. Wang Zhongbi and Qian Neng were so popular when they were alive, but they didn't expect to make the same choice in the end."
"Bury Wang Zhongbi's body and Qian Neng's body outside the city. Let them be neighbors." Wu Nian turned his head and said to a soldier beside him.
"Yes." The soldier responded and wrote it down.
"Everyone, the night is deep now. If you have anything to do, we'll talk about it tomorrow. One more thing, don't worry. I won't kill people wantonly. Go back and sleep peacefully."
Wu Nian turned around and gave the officials a fist in the air, very calmly.
The civil and military officials looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief. They didn't care what Wu Nian had to do, they were just waiting for Wu Nian's words.
They lost their temper and surrendered. I just hoped that Wu Nian would let them go.
"Yes." The officials looked happy and clasped their fists in response.
Wu Nian nodded and entered Wang Zhongbi's general military residence in the city to stay. The soldiers had already moved in first to remove the original maids and domestic slaves from the mansion, checked whether there were secret passages in the mansion, and then put on guard.
Wu Nian lay in wait all night, his eyelids were fighting and he was very sleepy. After taking a shower, I threw myself in the bedroom. When I woke up, it was already noon the next day.
I was woken up by the soldiers.
"General. After the general of Ling County learned about Wang Zhongbi's death, he immediately withdrew his troops from Ling County and returned to Shanhaiguan."
The soldier stood in front of the bed, looked at Wu Nian who was still a little confused, clasped his fists and saluted.
Wu Nian suddenly became energetic, shook his head slightly, and said, "He ran really fast." Then he sat up from the bed, bent down and put on his shoes, raised his head and said, "Let someone bring me some water. I want it." Wash up. Prepare meals.”
"Yes." The soldier responded, turned around and went down.
Wu Nian pondered while washing himself.
Wang Zhongbi's 80,000 horse infantry. Among them, 20,000 were defeated by me personally, 10,000 were defeated by Feng Chengchang, and more than 20,000 were also accounted for last night.
There are still 30,000 soldiers guarding Shanhaiguan.
I'm afraid I won't be able to attack Shanhaiguan.
"Is this the end this time?" Wu Nian shook his head, his eyes shining brightly. Not necessarily. As long as a man has his breath left, he will never stop fighting.
Maybe there is still a chance.
Thinking of this, Wu Nian put down his turban, raised his head and said to the soldiers beside him: "Give me the order. Let Feng Chong and the heavy armored cavalry stay behind to take care of the prisoners."
"The light cavalry is ready. When I have eaten, they will go south with me immediately and join the infantry. Send troops to Shanhaiguan."
"Yes." The soldier responded with clasped fists and immediately turned around and left. After Wu Nian had a hurried meal, he took his soldiers out of the general military mansion, joined Feng Chong's light cavalry, the infantry in the camp, and the horse infantry to fight towards Shanhaiguan in a mighty manner.
This morning. Wu Nian led his troops to Shanhaiguan.
Tens of thousands of cavalry and infantry troops were arranged neatly, with flags fluttering, and armor like fish scales, shining in the sun. They charged towards the bullfighting with a murderous aura.
Under the banner of "Wu". Wu Nian was sitting astride a black Liaodong horse, wearing a summer war coat.
On his left is Wang Gui, and on his right is Zhang Sheng.
Ahead is Shanhaiguan. Shanhaiguan connects mountains and seas, and is connected to the Great Wall, and is about 4,000 meters long. There are four city gates, and outside the city gate facing the pass, there is also an urn city. That is, there are two gates inside and outside.
The enemy has breached the outer city gate, and the defenders can still retreat to the inner city gate.
The most powerful pass in the world.
Wu Nian looked up at Guan Guan. The flag with the word "Chu" is flying in the wind. There are many armored soldiers on the city walls, and a murderous atmosphere spreads throughout the pass.
There is no confusion or wavering in the soldiers, and they are full of confidence.
It's really a one-man thing that can't be blocked by ten thousand men. The city wall brought unparalleled confidence to Chu soldiers.
Wu Nian withdrew his gaze, turned to his left and right, and said, "Brothers, the area within the Great Wall is called Guanzhong. The area outside the Great Wall is called Guanwai."
"In the eyes of the court in the pass, we Liaodong people are just border people and not worth mentioning. But now, I have led you to the pass. As long as we break through the Shanhaiguan Pass, even though the Chu State has a vast territory and rich resources, I will be able to roam freely." .”
"Princes, generals and prime ministers, would you rather have the seed?"
When Wang Gui and Zhang Sheng heard this, they held the reins of their horses tightly with both hands, their eyes shining with incomparable pride.
I remember back then, the brothers had to go hunting in the mountains in order to fill their stomachs. After shooting a tiger, Wu Nian gained a reputation.
"Wu Nian, the tiger-killer."
In the past seven or eight years, they have fought more than a hundred battles. From the small Beishan Fort, they fought to the current place of Sanfu, driving the Mongolian people to Huanglong Mansion and Guangyang Mansion.
Suppress the power of Chu State within Shanhaiguan.
Wu Nian is called [General] outside and [King of Liaodong] inside. They also became school captains and commanded tens of thousands of households.
He really has strong soldiers and strong horses, and thousands of cavalry.
Princes, generals and prime ministers, would you rather have the seed? ! ! ! !
I think back then, Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, was just a pavilion chief. General Fan Kuai was also a dog killer. Xia Houying was a groom.
Hanxing. The names of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty and his civil servants and generals have gone down in history.
It seems that they are not incapable now.
"General. Even if brothers risk their lives, they will send you to the border to become the Emperor of Yan." Zhang Sheng took a deep breath, his chest full of pride, and said with cupped fists.
"That's right. There are ups and downs in the world. The fate of Chu State has come to an end. The general must replace him." Wang Gui said in a deep voice.
"Hahaha." Wu Nian burst out laughing, his laughter extremely chilling. The fierce tiger of Liaodong looks south, swallows thousands of miles with anger, and is a majestic bird of prey.
Wu Nian laughed for a long time, then suddenly stopped laughing. He turned to a soldier beside him and said, "Wang Ding. Go to Guanxia and advise the general."
"Open the city gate and welcome me in."
"High-ranking officials and nobles are easily obtained."
"Yes." Wang Ding was also excited, raised his head, and responded loudly. Then, he rode his horse forward, came to the pass, and said loudly: "The guards in the city listen."
"I am the envoy of General Fu Han. My general asked me to tell you. As long as you open the city gate and welcome my general, you will have high-ranking officials at your fingertips."
The loud sound carried by the wind spread far, far away.
"Open the city gate!!! Open the city gate!!!"
Tens of thousands of soldiers raised their weapons together, opened their eyes for their general, and roared loudly. For a moment, the dragon and the tiger leaped.
The tiger of the north showed its sharp claws.
Facing Guanzhong, he smiled slightly.
