Tread.
Chen Zhong left the city with a look of solemnity on his face. Before leaving, Dongfang's little military advisor had told him not to leave the city rashly. He was the same way, guarding the Dawan Pass, always trying to find ways to get news from the front line. Until the sheepherder appeared, the news brought back by the Western Shu scouts made him vaguely understand that Beiyu was gradually losing power in the direction of the front line.
He even believed that with the skills of his own little military advisor, he would send troops to help rush to Dawan Pass if he found that the scouts could not return to the base camp.
"Keep chasing!"
Chen Zhong held his head high, his face full of calmness. To this day, he still remembers what Mr. Du E came to persuade him to surrender that day in Yuguan.
The mediocre lord will make you a dog of defense, but the virtuous lord will teach you to march northward and level the snowy mountains and grasslands.
…
"Then Chen Zhong is still pursuing. But for some reason, the cavalry formation is extremely cautious, and the ambushing Silver Halberd Guards cannot intercept the formation in a short time. Military advisor, don't attack at this time. If you attack, you should make a sound!"
The shepherd frowned slightly as he listened. According to what he thought, after luring Chen Zhong out, it would be a killing spree. But according to the intelligence at this time, the Shield of Western Shu was more cautious and difficult to deal with than imagined.
"Sound the disprosium arrows to ambush hundreds of people in the rear, and use drums and trumpets to attract Chen Zhong to divide his troops and return to the defense."
Soon, the sound of firing arrows filled the sky. The commander of the Silver Halberd Guard quickly ran back with a frown on his face.
"Military advisor, Chen Zhong... didn't pay attention to him. He was about to catch up with us."
The sheepherder's face darkened.
"He vowed to kill me. But I couldn't figure it out, but how dare two thousand riders leave the city? I asked myself, he wouldn't be so stupid as to think that I really only have more than a hundred people."
Frowning, the sheepherder thought for a while, and his old face suddenly turned pale. He turned his head quickly and looked to the east.
To the east, the fighting on the front line is still vaguely visible.
"How brave, Chen Zhong pursues me with his light cavalry, trying to flank me!"
"Military advisor, he only has 2,000 men, and we are only 5,000 elites."
"I said before that time is running out. If my guess is correct, Chen Zhong is probably betting that Dongfang Jing will send a rear army. If this rear army arrives in time, plus Chen Zhong's two thousand light cavalry, If they intercept and pursue them all the way, we will be vulnerable to attack."
"I never thought that a former general from Shuzhou would have such courage."
The shepherd quickly calmed down.
There were only two choices before him. One quickly left, but Chen Zhonghui led his Qingqi to harass and intercept all the way. The other one calmly waited before the Western Shu army arrived, and used the Silver Halberd Guards in ambush to annihilate Chen Zhong's two thousand cavalry first.
…
"March, march!"
As Chen Zhong thought, after Dongfang Jing discovered that something was wrong, the scouts' return was delayed, so he quickly sent out troops. At this time, more than ten thousand rebels led by Shangguan Shu were marching in the direction of Dawan Pass in a long snake formation.
The Xia'er army of ten thousand people, like Shu soldiers, all wore white armor. The difference was that there were nearly a thousand Xia'er among them, and they wore a cloak on top of the white armor.
After Xu Mu became the chief helmsman of the Thirty Provinces, all the chivalrous people in the world have slowly come to Xishu, and are uniformly deployed by the hall master Shangguan.
Riding on the horse, Shangguan Shu was at this moment, his face full of anxiety. After understanding the intentions of his little military advisor, he suddenly knew that the Dawan Pass in the rear was most likely to be invaded by the Beiyu people.
"How far is it?"
"Master, we're almost there!"
"This is not about killing the dog officer. This is a war. Please call me General Shangguan."
"Okay, Master."
Shangguan Shu cursed, but soon regained his stern expression. It's not far away. If enemy troops from Beiyu are found, it's time to fight.
Above the sky, once the night went away, a blue sky and white light came again.
With clear vision, Shangguan Shu, who had been rushing back all the way, raised his head and saw the outline of Dawan Pass in the distance.
An unknown joy quickly spread throughout his body.
Outside Dawanguan City.
As the second chief strategist of Beiyu, the sheepherder finally chose to annihilate.
With a sullen face, the sheepherd's face turned cold. The Shield of Western Shu never fell into the trap, which cost him too much time. The scout did not return for a long time, so with the caution of a lame man, he saw the clues and sent troops to rescue Dawan Pass. If Chen Zhong bets right, from now on, it won't be long before he will be caught in a trap.
At this time, even if he wanted to go back, it was no longer possible. When Chen Zhong rode out of the city with two thousand horses, they were like a pack of ferocious wolves, biting him to death. The ambush of the Silver Halberd Guards did not play much of an ambush role. Chen Zhong's two thousand cavalry were always on guard.
"Find a way to annihilate Chen Zhong's Shuqi camp as quickly as possible!"
"Silver Halberd Guards, where is the halberd!" The commander of the Silver Halberd Guards had a cold look on his face, stepped forward wearing armor, and raised the saber in his hand high.
In front of him, two to three thousand Silver Halberd Guards, following the old sheepherder's order, formed a formation with horizontal halberds. Blocked the Shuqi battalion's pursuit.
Seeing this scene, Chen Zhong, who was riding on the horse, suddenly smiled. What he wanted was for the sheepherders to have no place to hide, until finally, the Western Shu rear troops who were rushed in joined forces to attack and kill them.
Definitely defending Dayuan Pass can protect the city pass. But if they ride out of the city, pursue and kill the Beiyu sheepherders, they will have the greatest chance.
"The world says that I, Chen Zhong, can only hold on like a shield, but today, I, Chen Zhong, will be a spear to defeat the enemy!"
"My sons in Shuzhou!" Chen Zhong raised his gun. Behind him are all his old subordinates who have followed him for many years, from the King of Central Shu to the King of Western Shu, from Yuguan to Dayuan Pass. The only thing that remains unchanged is the ambition to defend Shu.
"kill!"
The cavalry formation in the front line rushed out and fought together with the intercepting Silver Halberd Guards.
"Yu camp, leave three hundred people on each side of the left and right wings! If I am not wrong, this old sheepherder will definitely set up an ambush! Shout with me, Beiyu old sheepherder is destined to die at Dayuan Pass!"
"The old sheepherder of Beiyu is destined to die at Dayuan Pass!"
The voice came, although it was a bit messy, but Xun Pingzi, who was in the military formation, could still hear it clearly. He squinted his eyes and looked at the general of Xishu in front of him, and smiled in anger.
If it had been anyone else, it would have been impossible to succeed earlier. Three attempts were made, but none of them could be broken. Instead, time was wasted. There are many generals under Xu Mu, King of Western Shu.
"Commander, come with me to attack the Shu people!" The commander of the Silver Halberd Guards who heard this suddenly became furious, and the military order was issued in a hurry. Since they chose to block the formation here, it was time for the ambushers to move.
"Let's fight quickly!" The sheepherd said in a calm voice, looking around constantly. Chen Zhong bit him so hard that he could not leave quickly.
"Fight!" Chen Zhong's expression remained unchanged.
Not only does he want to kill the sheepherder, but in the future, he also wants to become a general on the expedition, follow his lord, lead the white-armored army, and conquer the grasslands and snow-capped mountains.
"I heard that Chen Zhong of Western Shu was not a general who defended the city, but a general who defeated the captives——"
