Chapter 468 Youzhou Luo Yi

On July 15, the Liaodong Army, Linyu Pass, Hebei Province, had already entered the pass.

Riding a tired war horse through the fields and the afterglow of summer evening, Luo Wu finally arrived at Linyu Pass in the golden sunset. After several years of operation, Linyu Pass is no longer just a pass city, because to the west is the Zhuojun Canal in Hebei, and to the east is Liaoyang in Liaodong. Linyu Pass, as the only way, has developed very prosperously in the past two years. The pass city has expanded several times and has long become a war fortress and integrated with the border trade city.

Linyu Pass has entered a state of war at this time, and the city gate on the east has long been closed. However, the city gate on the west has not been closed. The people living in the city and the caravans coming and going nearby still come in and out every day.

Luo Wu also changed into a dress at this time. He did not come from his original appearance, but instead dressed up as an ordinary business traveler. When he arrived in front of the city gate, he got off the horse honestly. He took out the road instructor and checked it correctly. After he politely gave the gang guarding the gate a hundred cents before entering.

Not long after entering the city, I saw people coming and going on the streets in the city, all rushing to the square in the city.

Today is the Zhongyuan Festival. According to the tradition of the Great Sui army, today the defenders of Guanzhong in Linyu will invite many Taoists and Taoists to serve as temples to perform salvation for the soldiers who died in battle in the past. The square was densely filled with troops, and teams of soldiers lined up in the square.

Around the square, there are also teams of soldiers who are specifically responsible for isolating and guarding them. Whether they are soldiers in the military formation in the square or the soldiers who are responsible for guarding them, all the soldiers today are dressed very neatly, solemnly and solemnly.

Around the square, people of all ages were also filled with people of all ages. Among these people, some were the families of the military and the families of the army, and more were the people and businessmen living here. For them, today is not only a day to pay homage to the fallen soldiers, but also a day to watch the fun.

In previous years, there were not many defenders in Guanzhong, Linyu, and the memorial activities on the Zhongyuan Festival were not very grand. But this year, the imperial court in front of Linyu Guan this year confronted hundreds of thousands of rebels, and fought several times, and most of them were injured. Moreover, the defenders suffered a lot of losses in the previous battle against the rebels outside the pass. Therefore, the Zhongyuan Festival memorial activities were very important, and Marshal Xue and Marshal Li in the pass attached great importance to all the monks and Taoists nearby. At this time, a high platform had already been set up in the middle of the square, with hundreds of monks and Taoists doing the same. For ordinary people, this scene of hundreds of monks and Taoists was hard to see in normal times, and it may even be possible that they could only see this once in their lifetime. There was no reason to miss it at this time. They all came to occupy a place long ago.

"This may be some of the incentives that the general Xue and Li did to face the previous battle against the Liaodong army, and the morale of the defenders of Guanzhong was depressed." After all, the soldiers fought on the battlefield, and often even had no bones to return to their hometowns, and could only be a lonely ghost. Now the behavior of the chief generals in the army is a means to buy morale of the army.

While guessing the original intention of the big scene in Guanzhong, Luo Wu shook his head and sighed slightly. The Hebei soldiers in Guanzhong, Linyu were also among the top strong soldiers in the Sui Dynasty, and General Xue and General Li were even more famous generals of the Sui Dynasty. Unfortunately, the situation in the Sui Dynasty is now gone. No matter how strong the generals in the Pass are, what's the use of the morale? Chen Pojun double-teamed the east and west, and the Hebei army will completely become an isolated army.

Thinking about the soldiers of the Hebei Army still confronting the Liaodong rebels here, but the court has now gathered 600,000 troops in Taiyuan, but they only compete for power and profit there. No one has ever thought about how much pressure the Hebei Army faced the powerful Liaodong Army alone with only one force. At this time, Luo Wu even thought of Pei Renji, who had brought 100,000 people to Hedong to serve the king. But now the siege of Yanmen has been lifted. Pei Renji not only did not return to Hebei, but went south to Taiyuan, and went to fight for power and profit.

Luo Wu sighed in his heart. Compared with Xue Shixiong, Li Jing and the head of the family, Pei Renji, who was born in Hebei, the son of Pei Renji, who was born in Jianghuai, was obviously not the same as the soldiers of Hebei. Since the court has given up on Hebei, it is time for them, Hebei people to consider returning to Hebei. People come and go on the streets, and Luo Wu can only walk slowly. This time his whereabouts are very secretive. He must not reveal his identity until he knows the attitudes of Marshal Xue and Marshal Li. Otherwise, if someone sees them, Xue Li and the other coaches will see that their army's remaining deputy general suddenly appears in Linyu Pass, they will definitely be suspicious.

On a teahouse facing the street, Luo Yi was sitting on a high place with his two sons drinking and watching the scenery. Looking at the popular street below, Luo Yi's heart was filled with depression. Last time he saw the reality of Li Jing's western camp. He didn't invite Li Jing to the west of Liao, so he took the four brothers of the Xue family out of the city to attack the camp without authorization. He wanted to make a good contribution so that Li Jing, who had always been wrong with him, could see his skills. Unexpectedly, he was caught in the ambush from others in the end and fled back only 3,000 people. Even the four young men of Xue Shixiong, who were in the same time, fell into the hands of the Liaodong Army.

After Xue Shixiong brought his troops back to Linyu, he tried to show the reality of the Liaodong army. As a result, Xue Shixiong finally brought him 150,000 troops out of the pass. But in the end, they lost 5,000 light cavalry, but they only exchanged for some food from western Liaoning. In the end, they could only receive the emperor's latest imperial edict. If it weren't for the emperor's imperial edict, Luo Yi felt that the Hebei army, which had the same number of rebels as the rebels at that time, could defeat the Liaodong rebels in one battle. Maybe he was already sitting in the Pyongyang City in the east of the sea, so how could he be so depressed here. When he thought of going to attend the memorial service in a while, he had to face the many soldiers who lost their lives because they followed him out of the camp last time, he couldn't help but feel heavy.

He drank it all with a glass of wine, but accidentally found that the figure that had just turned around the corner of the street was very familiar. After thinking about it carefully for a while, he finally remembered that the figure was not his old subordinate Luo Wu? He should assist Luo Cheng in the military gate at this time, but why did he suddenly appear here? And just now he saw that Luo Wu was obviously dressed in a business trip, and he was still dodging his posture. Why is this?

Luo Yi has always been a fierce general. However, Luo Yi is very cunning and suspicious, and has always been cautious. Seeing Luo Wu, who should not have appeared in the city, he couldn't help frowning, and all kinds of possibilities flashed through his heart. In other words, Luo Wu has followed him for more than 20 years, and he should believe Luo Wu, but many years of border wars have made him extremely cautious.

"Luo Chun, Luo Song, just now my father seemed to see a figure heading to the Yuelai Inn over there. The figure was very familiar, and I couldn't remember which one it was. You brothers went to see it in person, remember, come and tell me immediately after you find out, don't let others know it." Luo Yi did not directly tell the two sons about the guesses in his heart, but asked the two sons to inquire by themselves. After all, Luo Wu has been with him for more than 20 years. If he guessed wrongly, then when the matter spreads, it will eventually cause Luo Wu's heart to be disappointed.
