Chapter 367
"Qi reported to the General, Long Cheng'en was trapped."
The messenger was very happy, but Jing Tianlie's face turned gloomy and he asked, "What did he say?"
After fighting with Long Chen several times, Jing Tianlie knew that Long Chen had many tricks and could not be fooled easily.
The messenger said, "He was hesitant at first and said that he was not strong enough troops, but later he said that he had never been afraid and wanted to march to reinforce Yanmen Pass."
After hearing this, Jing Tianlie's face became even more gloomy. He was wondering if Long Chen had fallen into a trap or had other plans?
"What do you think?"
Jing Tianlie looked at Chen Yuxin.
This ambush and lure the enemy was proposed by Chen Yuxin.
Originally, because Yanmen Pass could not capture it, Long Chen's reinforcements were on the road again, Jing Tianlie wanted to set up a camp in the canyon to block Long Chen's reinforcements and win time for the barbarians to siege Yanmen Pass.
Once the barbarians break through Yanmen Pass, they join forces and start a decisive battle near the canyon.
Another point is that the canyon is in a critical position, and occupying it in advance can lead to the geographical advantage.
If occupied by Long Chen, it will be difficult for the army to move south.
But by chance, Emperor Lingyi sent a messenger for help, but was caught by Chen Yuxin.
After reading the letter of help, Chen Yuxin proposed to use a fake messenger to trick Long Chen into marching and support, and then ambush the canyon.
Jing Feng suffered a loss once and felt that this plan was feasible.
Jing Tianlie also felt that he could give it a try.
"Long Cheng'en has many tricks, I wonder if he was trapped."
Chen Yuxin has suffered a loss and dare not be too confident.
"We sent Houqi to inquire. If Long Cheng'en got the trap, he would speed up, but not too fast. He must know that there is a canyon here and there may be ambush."
Chen Yuxin was very cautious, and Jing Tianlie felt that was the case.
"Okay, send half of Houqi to monitor Long Chengen's movements."
Jing Tianlie immediately sent a cavalry to monitor him, and he set up an ambush in the canyon.
Whether this strategy is successful or not, Jing Tianlie will win.
If it works, you can catch Long Chen off guard and even kill Long Chen.
If not, it doesn't matter. Just block reinforcements in the canyon, wait for the barbarians to break through Yanmen Pass, and then join forces to attack and crush them.
The barbarians have more than 200,000, plus the Red Flame Army, and 10 times the strength of the troops, even if the commander is a pig, he can win this battle.
....
Long Chen had four men and eight horses, whipping the horse from the small path without stopping for a moment.
When the horse is tired, change one immediately and alternate constantly.
It took only half a day to run.
Huh...
The war horse's nose sprayed white mist, and even if the two horses alternated, the war horse's endurance reached its limit.
boom...
Gongsun Linglong sat down and suddenly fell to the ground and spit out white foam.
"This war horse is too bad, why can't it work?"
Gongsun Linglong almost fell.
Long Chen picked up the water bag and took a sip of water, and said, "You two lions hammered 200 pounds, and the war horse is equivalent to carrying two people."
Dugu Jiali also said: "That's right, this war horse has a very good endurance."
The setting sun sets in the west, and the setting sun shines on the barren stone mountain. Occasionally, a trace of cold rolls up dust, and the border is bleak.
Opening the map, Long Chen pointed to the northeast and said, "Yanmen Pass is ten miles away, and the reinforcements from Jade Buddha Pass should be coming soon. We are waiting here."
The four of them rested on the spot, and Long Chen brought water to the fallen war horses.
The sun sets and night falls. The sound of war horses faintly comes from the northeast. The battle at Yanmen Pass is continuing.
"General, I'll go and find out the situation first."
Dugu Jiali walked over and said.
In fact, Long Chen also wanted to inquire first, but the war horse had reached its limit and could not walk over.
Before Long Chen could answer, Bai Tingting suddenly whispered: "Someone!"
The few people immediately squatted down and saw two horses running over from the west, as if exploring the way.
"Maybe it is the soldiers from Jade Buddha Pass, you can catch them and ask."
It is impossible to see clearly in the dark night, and it may be the barbarians' waiting cavalry.
Gongsun Linglong immediately rushed out with great strides. The two horses saw a tall figure and scolded: "Who!"
Bang!
Gongsun Linglong rushed forward, waved his palm and knocked the two cavalry to the ground.
Then he grabbed his neck and lifted it back, threw it on the ground, and asked, "Where's it?"
Long Chen looked at the military uniform carefully and was a brother of the Long family army.
"Are you from the Long Family Army?"
Gongsun Linglong asked.
Long Chen helped the two people up and said, "I am Long Chengen, who will lead the team? How far is it?"
The two soldiers were beaten to the point of dizziness. It took a while before they came to their senses. Using the faint nightlight, they could tell Long Chen's appearance.
"See General Long!"
"We are led by Captain Han Ziping, and the army is five miles away."
Long Chen was secretly happy and said, "Leave a horse and the other person goes back, so that Han Ziping can come over quickly."
When the soldiers received the order, they rushed back immediately.
"Tingting, you ride this horse to find out the situation at Yanmen Pass, where is the main army and who is the leader, it's better to catch your tongue and come back."
Bai Tingting got on the horse and immediately went to Yanmen Pass.
The soldier kept rubbing his neck and complained in a low voice: "I almost got pinched off when my own man was so hard."
Gongsun Linglong snorted coldly: "A big man is so weak!"
The soldier looked at Gongsun Linglong, who was one head taller than him, and silently lowered his head.
Soon, Han Ziping arrived with his army.
"See General Long, General Dugu..."
Both Long Chen and Dugu Jiali knew each other, but Gongsun Linglong had never seen her.
"This is General Gongsun, the granddaughter of Lao Zhuguo."
Long Chen introduced it.
Han Ziping immediately saluted: "See General Gongsun."
Gongsun Linglong patted Han Ziping on the shoulder and smiled and said, "You're welcome, you'll be brothers in the future!"
Han Ziping was patted with pain in her shoulder...
"Why is General Long here? General Wu told the last general that you will lead troops to reinforce from the South Avenue."
Wu Jian talked about Long Chen’s reinforcements, making it best for Han Ziping to meet Long Chen south outside Yanmen Pass.
This is to prevent ambushing troops outside Yanmen Pass, so Han Ziping stopped just now and sent a waiting cavalry to find Long Chen's army.
"The road to the south was blocked by Jing Tianlie, and Yanmen Pass was besieged. Let's take a small way over."
Han Ziping said in surprise: "What should we do? Quick reinforcements?"
Long Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry, wait until General Bai comes back to find out the news and decide before he can take the lead. Let the brothers rest on the spot."
With Long Chen here, Han Ziping was not panicked and ordered the soldiers to rest and eat dry food on the spot.
Long Chen asked Wu Jian about the situation at Jade Buddha Pass again. Han Ziping said that everything was normal there, and the city of Xifeng Town was being built in an orderly manner, and the world would be benefited, and Tianliang worked very hard.
In the middle of the night, Bai Tingting came back on a horse, with a barbarian soldier tied behind her.
Bang!
The soldier was thrown to the ground, Bai Tingting dismounted and said, "This man is so stinking. Are the barbarians not taking a bath?"
Long Chen smiled and said, "You will know if you ask him."
Bai Tingting took a sip of water and said, "Yanmen Pass is surrounded. The 200,000 barbarian army is outside the city. The third princess guards it, but the battle is also very tragic. The city wall is seriously damaged. Jing Tianlie brought siege weapons."
The biggest advantage of the people in the Central Plains is the city walls, and the barbarians are not good at making siege tools.
But Jing Tianlie brought the siege weapons over, so this battle would be difficult to fight.
Gongsun Linglong brought the soldier over, and Long Chen asked, "What's your name? What position do you hold?"
