"Taihe Lingkou is also lost." Wang Liang's face was extremely ugly.
Approaching Yanmen Pass, he found that the big flag on the head of the military castle in front of him had been replaced by the black flag of the rebel army.
If you want to get to Daizhou from Shanyin County, you can either go to Guangwu Town, pass through Yanmenguan and exit at the south exit, and reach Daizhou City without any obstruction. Similarly, you can also go to Xixingguan through Baicaokou Fort and pass through Taihelingkou. You can also reach Daizhou City.
The last road is to take Shuiyukou Fort, pass through Dongxingguan, go around Huyukou Fort, and finally reach Daizhou City.
All three paths can lead to Daizhou City.
"We have captured Yanmen Pass, and it is not impossible to capture Xixing Pass." The chief on horseback said.
After any one of the three passes is opened, the remaining two roads and passes will be trapped in front and rear attacks, making it difficult for the defenders on the city to hold on.
"Hmph, you go ahead and lead the way." Wang Liang snorted in his nostrils.
Na Shichang didn't waste any time and directly urged his horse to walk in front of the team.
He did not lead the team through Xixing Pass, but took the south entrance to Yanmen Pass.
As soon as they entered the south entrance, a large flag was erected on the high mountain, and a group of soldiers and horses appeared on the road ahead, blocking their way.
"stop."
A soldier of the Tiger Character Banner shouted loudly to stop Wang Liang and others' team from moving forward.
The chief turned over and dismounted, raised his hands high to indicate that he had no weapons, and slowly walked towards the soldiers with the Tiger Flag blocking the way ahead.
"Behind me are people sent by Zhenwuwei Wang Qianshi. They want to see you, Wang Shizheng. Please open the road and let us pass." The chief said carefully and politely.
The leading soldier squad leader looked up and down at what was in front of him and asked, "Are you also from Zhenwuwei?"
"Yes, I used to be a chief of the Yanmen Guards Station. Later, I was sent by Wang Shizheng to Daizhou City to persuade the city's garrison to surrender. Didn't I bring a messenger sent by Wang Qianshi here?" After regaining consciousness, he pointed at Wang Liang and others behind him.
The captain of the warrior squad turned his head and glanced at Wang Liang and others on horseback, and said, "I can let you go, but you must hand over your armor."
"Okay, I'll go talk to them right away." After finishing speaking, Nashi Chang returned quickly.
Return to Wang Liang and others.
Wang Liang was the first to speak: "Can you go there?"
Yanmen Pass fell into the hands of the rebels, and he was not surprised that the south entrance was guarded by rebel soldiers.
"You can go there." Na Shichang nodded lightly and said, "But your soldiers and armors need to stay here and cannot be taken to Yanmen Pass."
"Fart, why should I hand over my things?"
Before Wang Liang could speak, one of the men accompanying him started to curse.
The chief who heard the scolding didn't show any anger at all. Instead, he patiently persuaded: "Guys, you came here under the order of Wang Qianshi. It's better to go back just for the sake of the armor on your body. If you do it differently, The thief army is sending people to see Wang Qianshi, and you must have taken off other people's armor before you can safely send people to see Wang Qianshi. It's the same truth, please understand."
"What if we don't remove our armor?" Wang Liang narrowed his eyes.
Nashi Chang spread his hands and said: "Then I have no choice. They will definitely not be able to get through. I can only go back and tell Wang Qian that things have not been done well."
Wang Liang squinted his eyes and stared at the tall man's face.
The other party looked back with the same gaze without showing any signs of weakness.
"Remove your armor and hand over all your armor to them." Wang Liang suddenly ordered the people he brought.
The people who came to Yanmen Pass with him were all Wang Hu's personal servants, and as the leader of these personal soldiers, his orders would also be obeyed by these personal servants.
Under the leadership of Wang Liang, several people quickly took off their armor.
"You guys, please dismount and follow me!" Seeing that Wang Liang and others no longer had their armor, Nash Chang called for them to dismount and walk over.
Wang Liang, who was riding on the horse, took a deep breath, suppressed the discomfort in his heart, got off the horse, led the horse and walked forward behind him.
Na Shichang, who was walking in front, returned to the Tiger Flag soldiers again and said with a smile on his face: "We have all taken off our armor. Do you think we can pass?"
"Okay." The soldier squad leader nodded.
Immediately, he waved his hand to the soldiers behind him, and a path from the south entrance to Yanmen Pass was cleared.
Nashi Chang clasped his fists in gratitude before leading his horse past the soldiers on one side.
The south entrance is very close to Yanmen Pass.
Soon, the group arrived at Yanmen Pass.
"These are the thief troops. They look more powerful than the border troops. Look at the armors they wear. They are at least 80% new. I used to think that only the thief soldiers guarding the south entrance had armor. It turns out that all the thief soldiers have armor." Wearing the same armor."
Along the way, a man next to Wang Liang looked curiously at the Tiger Flag soldiers around him and kept sighing.
Along the way from the south entrance to Yanmenguan City, we saw not only 2,000 but also 1,450 thieves. Surprisingly, everyone was wearing a new-looking cotton armor, which was much better than the soldiers and servants who followed Wang Qianshi. The cotton armor worn by many people in China is better.
Wang Liang, who was walking in front, kept observing the bandit soldiers passing by from time to time. Just as the people around him said, there were actually so many armor-piercing bandit soldiers.
Just the number of armor-clad thieves I saw was already greater than Zhenwuwei's armor-clad soldiers.
"Have you noticed that most of these thieves use firecrackers? Just like the rumors, they are not afraid of injuring themselves." Someone in Wang Liang's group said in surprise.
The quality of the firecrackers in the Ming army was really worrying. Many Ming army soldiers would rather use broadswords and spears than firecrackers, a weapon that could kill one thousand enemies but only damage eight hundred.
"Shut up, don't embarrass yourself here." Wang Liang was a little irritated and couldn't help scolding him.
Naturally, the others did not dare to say anything more, but they still looked around with curious eyes.
After some information, the chief brought the person to a large tent.
"You have fulfilled your mission and brought Wang Qianshi's envoy." When the chief saw Wang Yuncheng in the tent, he immediately knelt down.
Wang Liang, who entered the big tent together, did not kneel down with him, but looked at a man behind the square table.
He had never seen the people in the tent, but he could feel that the man sitting behind the square table was probably the commander of the bandits who attacked Yanmen Pass.
"Wang Hu, General Wang's general, has met the general." Wang Hu took the lead in greeting the man behind the square table.
Wang Yuncheng, who was sitting behind the table, felt happy when he saw that the other party had really persuaded the Wang family of Zhenwuwei. He immediately smiled and said: "Since General Wang intends to surrender, I welcome him very much. Come and pour some wine for Brother Wang Hu." A glass of water to warm you up.”
