Raidan, King of Uz.
The beard occupies most of the face, the high bridge of the nose, blue eyes, and yellow curly hair are draped on the back of the head, highlighting the unique face of a foreigner.
After the establishment of the Jing Kingdom, Zhang Xiu sent envoys to the Western Regions to meet with the kings of the Western Regions, discuss and confirm business relations, and strengthen ties with the countries in the Western Regions. This resulted in very frequent business exchanges between the two places and promoted the economic development of the Western Regions. .
All countries in the Western Regions thought that Jingguo was full of gold and a holy land in ideal life. Many businessmen chose to go to Chang'an or other places in Jingguo, which made the people of the Western Regions have unlimited imagination about Jingguo.
After Yu Bing came to the Western Regions, he lobbied among other countries to spread the news that Wei State in the Central Plains was powerful and would soon destroy Jingguo and replace him. He hoped that all the countries in the Western Regions would unite to assist Wei State. After the battle was won, Xiliang and other places would be divided into the Western Regions. countries.
He also promised to pay tens of millions of taels of gold as reward.
The countries in the Western Regions who had no information believed it to be true. King Lai Dan of the Wuzi Kingdom appointed Yu Bing as his military advisor and led the Western Region Alliance Army towards Yumen Pass, preparing to assist the Wei State to break Jing.
Lai Dan knew something about the Wei State, but his knowledge was still in the period of great power when Cao Cao was alive, but he did not know that Cao Cao had already passed away and the Wei State was in turmoil.
Facing the temptation proposed by Yu Bing, Lai Dan decided to send troops after careful consideration. On the one hand, he wanted to assist Wei Guo, but on the other hand, he also had his own plans. Businessmen from the Western Regions who visited Chang'an boasted about Chang'an's advanced prosperity, gold everywhere, and beautiful women. Lai Dan also wanted to see the prosperous city of Chang'an.
Do not know why.
The closer he got to Yumen Pass, Lai Dan couldn't help but feel an ominous premonition in his heart. This premonition gradually increased as he got closer to Yumen Pass.
He looked up at the sky above his head.
Gloomy.
Black clouds were rolling in the clouds, and it looked like it was about to rain. The air was stuffy, and even my heavy clothes were soaked with sweat, but not a single drop of rain fell. After trekking a long distance, the entire team was already exhausted, dragging their tired and weak bodies forward.
"How long will it take to reach Yumen Pass?" Lai Dan looked ahead, but could not see the shadow of Yumen Pass.
Yu Bing was excited. He lobbied various countries to form an alliance to attack Jingguo. Whether he succeeded or not was not important anymore. What was important was that Yu Bing's reputation would last forever. Of course, it would be better if we could really break through Yumen Pass.
"There are still thirty miles, please look at the king..." Yu Bing pointed to the mountain peak not far ahead, "Over that mountain, you will reach the Yumen Pass."
"good!"
Lai Dan ordered: "The entire army will speed up and must reach the outside of Yumen Pass and set up camp before tonight."
…
Lai Dan's whereabouts were controlled by Pang De. When he learned that they were less than thirty miles away from Yumen Pass, he guessed that they would definitely arrive outside Yumen Pass before tonight.
The Western Region Alliance troops had come all the way and were already depleted of men and horses, so it was the best time to attack at night. Pang De heard that there was a man named Yu Bing in the opposite camp who was both civil and military, so he knew that ordinary night attacks would not achieve the effect he wanted.
So, he divided the 20,000 soldiers and horses in his hand into three. Li Tong was ordered to lead 7,000 cavalry, bring enough food, grass and water, and lurk in the hills on the right side of Yumen Pass 70 miles away.
He also ordered Ma Dai to lead three thousand cavalry out of the city and lurk fifty miles away, preparing to cooperate with tonight's sneak attack.
Li Tong's troops and horses were to cut off the retreat route of the Western Region Alliance Army, leaving them with five ways to escape. If all the people from the countries in the Western Regions fled back, the expected strategic purpose would not be achieved. Only by capturing these kings alive can the Western Regions be controlled and truly brought back into the Dajing territory. Ma Dai has soldiers and horses to cooperate with tonight's sneak attack.
Very strange.
The clouds were so dense that not a single drop of rain fell, but the muggy air made me feel irritable. Lai Dan pulled the clothes at the collar to let out the hot air wrapped inside. Suddenly, the hand pulling the collar suddenly stopped, and his eyes stared straight ahead. In the distance, a majestic city stood horizontally. At the front of a steep canyon.
War flags were hoisted on top of the city, and a few behemoths of unknown origin stood on top of the city.
"arrive!"
Staring at Yumen Pass in a daze, it took a long time to say two words without knowing the joy or sorrow.
There was a bit of excitement in Yu Bing's eyes: "King Laidan, we have finally arrived at Yumen Pass. As long as we work hard and break through Yumen Pass, we can enter Chang'an and the Jing Kingdom will be destroyed!"
Hearing Yu Bing's encouraging words, Lai Dan swallowed and nodded. Then he ordered the army to speed up and march down to the stronghold ten miles away from Yumen Pass. Due to the gloomy weather today, it got dark early.
After burying the pot and making rice, Yu Bing gave advice to the kings of the Western Regions. It was expected that the Jing army would attack the camp tonight. Be prepared to break the enemy's army first and increase the morale of the army. Therefore, the alliance army sent its own elite troops to prepare the front camp. They formed an empty camp and ambush all around, waiting for the night attack of Jingjun tonight.
midnight.
It was so dark tonight that I couldn't see my fingers, the sky and the earth seemed to be black, and the air was still hot and dry. In this boring dark night, the city gate of Yumenguan opened, and Pang De personally led 5,000 troops to sneak out of the city gate and headed for the Allied Army's camp in the Western Regions.
It was too dark to avoid disturbing the enemy, so Pang De led the army and walked forward with their horses' hooves wrapped in cloth. It took half an hour to reach the outskirts of the ten-mile journey.
Pound expected that the enemy must be on guard, but he didn't know how. He first ordered Matthew to lead two thousand men on horseback and launch a surprise attack on the Union Army's front camp to see how the enemy would respond.
In order to prevent generals from turning their troops into a family army, the direct relatives of all generals are not in the same camp. Ma Chao's two younger brothers, Ma Dai and Ma Xiu, were both under Pound's tent and led the Xiliang troops.
Matthew held a spear and led his troops to quickly break through the Union army's front camp and enter the camp. Only then did he realize that it was an empty camp. But there were reinforcements behind him, so he was not afraid. Instead, he ordered the army to kill the Chinese army.
at this time.
Yu Bing has been waiting in the dark for a long time.
Yu Bing, courtesy name Shizong, was from Yanzhou. The Yu family is considered a small noble family in Yanzhou and is not well-known. Yu Bing has been reading poetry and books since he was a child, and he also likes to wield swords and guns. These two things have created his ability in both civil and military arts.
During the chaos of the late Han Dynasty, Yu Bing was hired as an official by Cao Cao. Later, when he established the Hidden Guards, Yu Bing was favored by Xun You because of his both civil and military skills and was promoted to a state guard of the Liangzhou Hidden Guards.
Everything he does now is closely related to the Hidden Guard. Currently, the Yumen Pass is under martial law and the news of the hidden guards has been blocked. Yu Bing has lost contact with Xu Du.
He doesn't need it now. He wants to break through Yumen Pass and enter Liangzhou. After occupying Liangzhou, it won't be too late to contact Xu Du. Looking at the enemy troops entering the encirclement, Yu Bing's eyes shone with the light of a successful conspiracy.
