Chapter 939

The whole army set off again. Not long after leaving Chaoyi, the wind and snow in the sky came violently again. When he looked up, the wind was wrapped in snowflakes and poured into his mouth. Chen Jun had to lower his head and walk in front of the wind. The iron armor and clothes were wrapped together, and the sound of "dang" was heard in the roaring wind. With such a strong wind and snow, the soldiers had already dismounted. Whether it was a cavalry or an infantryman riding horse, no one could still stand up to such a big wind and snow. Walking in the wind and snow, there seemed to be a moving wall in front, with his feet like wood, and he tried his best to move every step, and his hands were no longer like his own. He felt nothing, and he could hardly hold the weapons and flagpoles.

The north wind did not have any sign of weakening. Every time he walked forward against the wind, it would drill into his clothes like a knife through any gap, snatching the temperature of his body up to the city little by little; the snow, like the colorful pear petals, pounced on the top of his head, shoulders, and back... Every time he walked a distance, there were dozens of people missing in the team. The roads, river ditches, and marching roads in the wind and snow were everywhere. The stiff ice soldiers accidentally stepped into the ditch or river ditch, and even if they were pulled up immediately, they would become ice men and would be difficult to save.

"Chala" a flag was torn apart, and the non-commissioned officer who was holding the flag looked up woodenly, and he no longer cared about whether it was good or bad. Even the dragon-patterned flag embroidered with the word "Chen" was soaked in snow. Another strong wind blew, and a long crack was torn open. The flag officer of the Imperial Guard turned pale, but Chen Kefu seemed to ignore it, only cared about leading Teller to the wind and snow.

The forward He Ruodong's hand had already been numb, and his body wrapped in a cotton robe seemed to be immersed in ice water, but he did not dare to stay. He ran for more than ten miles in one go before slowing down his speed a little. He was already old and even his beard had already been gray. If his nephew He Ruohuailiang had already surrendered to Chen Pojun in secret and turned against Xiao Guan's formation last time, he would not have been so old that he would have personally gone to the battlefield to serve as a vanguard.

There were "puff" sounds coming from time to time, but he never looked back. He glanced at the side and found that an old guard general who had been walking with horses had disappeared, and obviously fell down the ravine. He felt a sore in his heart and could only continue moving forward. He didn't know how to evaluate his nephew's defeat of Chen. Although his nephew's turnaround caused him to be tied up on a pirate ship, and even implicated many family members in Chang'an. But he also knew that if his nephew had not surrendered to Chen Pojun, Xiao Guan would have been lost, and maybe he would have become a prisoner under Chen Jun.

Thinking about the memories of him following his brother He Ruobi to pacify Nanchen at that time, he still remembered him before him, but unexpectedly, it was nearly thirty years in a blink of an eye. Now that he is old, he surrendered Chen Pojun and followed Chen Kefu to conquer the world. This world is really amazing.

It was already three times before the third day, and the wide plain was just in front of him. He looked back at his team, and there were more than 100 light cavalry along the way. Although this army was well equipped and trained, as the former General Xu State, he knew very well the importance of Linjin Pass and was well aware of the strong city defense of Linjin Pass. The defenders in Linjin Pass were not the same as those in Chaoyi City. The soldiers in Chaoyi were vulnerable, but Linjin Pass were all elite soldiers.

At this moment, the scout team in charge of the road exploration rushed back quickly.

"General He Ruo, a military camp was found ten miles ahead, with about a thousand cavalry. The camp bars were simple and seemed to be temporarily stationed."

He Ruolong was shocked. Unexpectedly, there was a barracks twenty miles away from Linjin Pass. This sudden information made him hesitate. He had no information from this army at all. He only had 1,500 troops on his hands, and there were 1,000 opponents. Even if the surprise attack could be defeated, it could not guarantee that they would be wiped out. The barracks were only twenty miles away from Linjin. If they leaked, Linjin would definitely be prepared. If they wanted to take Linjin, it would be troublesome.

"The commander, immediately send the information here to His Highness quickly. He Ruomin and He Ruohun, I will order you and the two of you to lead 500 light cavalry to quietly bypass the enemy's barracks and set up an ambush between the enemy's barracks and Linjin City. In any case, you must ensure that no enemy will escape back to Linjin. If there is any mistake, come and see you." He Ruolong pondered for a moment and immediately began to order. He did not dare to hesitate. The longer the delay, the more likely he was to be discovered by the people in the enemy's barracks.

He Ruomin and He Ruohun were both his sons, but on the battlefield, there was only a distinction between superiors and subordinates, and there was no difference between father and son. The two young generals from aristocratic families immediately took the order and ordered five hundred light cavalry and ran away.

"He Ruohu, He Ruobao!"

"The last one will be here!"

"I will ask you and two of you to lead 200 suicide squads to rush straight to the enemy camp. Remember, your purpose is to step on the camp and not fight in a long time. After breaking through the enemy camp, you will gather in the south of the enemy camp immediately!"

"Abide by the order!"

He picked up the serpent-shaped long spear, and He Ruolong completely restored his momentum on the battlefield for many years. He waved his long spear: "The rest of the people are all ready. After He Ruohu and He Ruobao break the camp, they will immediately advance in an array and break everything!"

Without horns and war drums, the two He Ruohu brothers and two of the two hundred suicide squads were selected, and they launched a dark night raid towards Meng Jing's military camp without hesitation. Meng Jing led his army to Fengyi in the daytime, but the wind and snow were too heavy, and he stopped and stopped and started camping and resting. No one expected that on such a snowy night, a large army would quietly kill under Linjin City. Originally, when Yu Wen Zhiji asked him to go to Fengyi, he felt that Yu Wen Zhiji was too timid, but he did not expect that things would really come to this point.

In the wind and snow, the camp was just a temporary laying down. Apart from a marching tent, there was only a small circle of fences around it, and even an arrow tower and antlers were not built.

Two hundred suicide squads held a round shield and thunderous hooves and rushed into the camp directly. Meng Jing and others felt the earth moving and hurriedly put on their clothes and left the camp, the suicide squad had already entered the camp. The suicide squads held He Ruolong's military order and did not fight. While moving forward, they kept throwing torches and grenades into the tents in the camp.

The shocking explosion and the firelights in the sky shine together, Meng Jing was caught off guard when she was killed.

I don’t know how many people attacked the camp in the darkness. Xu Jun was frightened and wanted to escape from this camp full of death as quickly as possible. However, the more this happened, the worse the wait for them. Although He Ruolong did not have the reputation of his brother He Ruobi, he was also a veteran on the battlefield. Such a raid was very exciting. He did not directly attack the camp, and doing so would likely turn into a pursuit battle.

He cunningly divided the troops into three parts, one of which had been arranged to intercept the enemy's way back to Linjin, and then a small part of the attack on the camp, causing the Xu army to flee in panic. At this time, He Ruolong, who had been in line to welcome him, led the army to attack and strangle. Meng Jing and his subordinates' reaction after the attack was completely calculated by He Ruolong. Xu army, who was panicking out of the camp, encountered the attack, and collapsed as soon as they rushed.

After several rounds of rushing, many of Meng Tong's 1,000 light cavalry were annihilated before they even got on the horses, and the remaining subordinates fled everywhere. Some went south, some went north, and some went east. However, without exception, these scattered Xu Jun were all intercepted by the foreshadowing arranged by He Ruolong early, and none of them missed the net, including Meng Jing.

After Meng Jing, who was tied up all over his body, was taken to He Ruolong, the general Xu Jun who was beaten for no reason only realized who his opponent was.

"Those who know the times are heroes. It is better for General Meng to learn from me to abandon the darkness as soon as possible." He Ruolong looked at his former colleague and smiled.

Meng Jing's face was gloomy and his thoughts changed rapidly. After a long time, he said nervously: "If I surrender, can Emperor Chen accept it?"

Seeing Meng Jing's expression, He Ruolong knew it clearly and smiled and said, "General Meng, don't say secret words in front of the wise man. If you surrender, your Majesty will accept it. However, Your Majesty has always had clear rewards and punishments. If you surrender, you will be in a thousand generals in the Great Chen Dynasty. I am afraid that your position will not be very high. But if General Meng can make great contributions, his future will naturally be limitless, what do you think."

"Did you ask me to betray Yuwen Zhiji and take down Linjin Pass for Chen Jun?" Meng Jing said with a complicated expression.

"No, no, no. I didn't ask the general to do it, what should he do, and whether he should do it. All of this depends on the general himself." After saying this, He Ruolong ignored him and turned around and told his subordinates to explain to his subordinates to clean up after the war.

After struggling for a while, Meng Jing still said dejectedly: "Mr. He Ruo, I am willing to help you seize Linjin Pass. However, the general must be able to trust you." As he said that, Meng Jing dragged out his plan and the market.

He Ruolong frowned and pondered for a moment, nodded at Meng Jing: "Okay, I will promise you, but you should understand that Yuwen and Xu have already returned to their power. If you want to do something secretly, then you will know that you and your family will have to be buried with Yuwen in the future. I am old, and even if I die, it will be a life. However, General Meng has a large number of people in the entire nine clan."

Hearing this fierce threat, Meng Jing couldn't help but feel the pain in his teeth. His eyebrow jumped slightly and said with a pleasing smile: "How dare I, I, I, I, have to rely on the adults to give me some advice in the future. How dare I not do my best?"

“That’s good.”

He Ruolong narrowed his eyes and looked at Meng Jing several times, and after he felt uncomfortable all over his body, he turned around and said, "Cleaning the battlefield immediately, and taking down all the armor and robes of Xu Jun soldiers. By the way, leave a few obedient officers who are willing to surrender, and all the others will be replaced by ours. He Ruomin, He Ruohun, you two are responsible for protecting General Meng, but you must be careful if there is a hidden arrow and a cold knife, do you understand?"

Meng Jing felt a stern, and he didn't know how cruel the old man was. He was wary of him in case he dared to make any moves and make a move. If he had any other ideas, he would be the first to die by then.

"The rest of the people will wait for news outside Linjin City later, and everything will be done as planned."
