ps: It’s Mid-Autumn Festival today. Mouse is here to offer Mid-Autumn Festival blessings to all readers. Well, on the last day of the month, please ask for a monthly ticket as a mooncake. In addition, book a guaranteed monthly ticket for tomorrow in advance. During the National Day holiday, one ticket is the best for two tickets.

As the night became deeper, in Jiange Pass, I looked up and saw only the starry sky and the moonlight that could not be scattered. The wind inside the Pass was whistling more and more tight. The wind like a knife blew the sand and stones on the ground, cutting the very smooth mountain walls on both sides, like a wind dragon sweeping past...

A burst of whistling sounds poured into people's ears. The Tang soldiers who were sleeping were pushed one after another. After whispering, the Tang soldiers rushed out of the cave where they lived and purposefully touched the nearby walls and other cave camps.

The sound of the wind covered their hasty footsteps, and the darkness of the night provided them with the best cover. With a stumble, the knife was pulled out of the scabbard, and the spiritual power was injected into the spirit soldiers, which immediately stimulated the formation inside the spirit soldiers, and stimulated the sword edge more than a foot long.

With a swish, the knife slashed down the gap of the door, and the door bolt inside was slashed in half by the sharp blade. Without pushing it, the howling wind pushed the door open. Inside, the warm air wave mixed with the intoxicating aroma of wine and a bit of sour smell made people feel a little mixed.

"Hurry, act!" However, the leader of the Tang Army lieutenant just frowned slightly and rushed into it first. There were fifty people living in such a large cave, and the cave was divided into two levels, which means that there was a team of 100 people stationed in this place.

Pure slaughter. The charm of Monkey'er's drunkenness is indeed unstoppable. Not only those ordinary soldiers, but also found the drunk unconscious team commanding on the second floor. It can be said that these jars of wine destroyed a hundred-man team. All they had to do was to make up a knife, and then destroy the explosion formation in the residence of the second floor team. Then he breathed a sigh of relief and headed straight to the next place.

After clearing the caves one by one, no one was still awake. There were still some patrol soldiers on the walls that were not drunk. However, before they could recover from the Tang soldiers who suddenly appeared in front of them, they were slashed in the neck with a knife. They died suddenly.

The only defender who made a sound was covered in the wind, and it didn't get far away, in less than a quarter of an hour. The entire Nanguan was less than 800 defenders, and there was no living left. The Tang army gathered at the Guanguan only left a hundred people to control Nanguan, and the remaining four hundred soldiers rushed towards Zhongguan along the Jiange Road.

"Captain, there is indeed a hole here!"

"Some people come and touch me!"

Several Tang soldiers hugged their waists when they heard this. They crawled into the hole for about two or three minutes before they showed their heads: "All of them have been solved, damn it. The entrance looks inconspicuous, and the space inside is quite large. There are about thirty, but they are all drunk like dead pigs!"

"More than thirty. Do you count clearly? The message sent by the smile leader said that there were fifty people here!"

"That's right, there are more than 30 people. We searched all over the place and destroyed the explosion formation! We didn't find anyone else!"

The captain hesitated for a moment and said, "Send a few people to guard it, be careful, there is no big mistake!"

"Yes, the captain!"

I have to say that the monkey drunk is very effective. The road is unobstructed. Even the two patrol soldiers on the Ming Pass were huddled in the corner, sleeping drunk, and naturally they were easily captured by the Tang army. Some soldiers were left to guard again. It took two or three quarters of an hour to finally arrive at Zhongguan.

"You are here. The sentries here have been solved. You have divided some of them to go to the shops over there. You must ensure that everything is foolproof. The two Taoists and the three heavenly spirit powerhouses in Jiange Pass are all in the wall building opposite. At this time, they are probably drunk. Someone will lead the way for you. You can kill these three people as soon as possible!"

Xiao Hongyan was just in case. If one of these three Heavenly Spirit Powerful Ones was not drunk, it would be a big trouble. After all, it was not just the explosion formation that could destroy the Jiange Dao. The Heavenly Spirit Powerful One's forbidden spell spirit skills can also have the same effect, so she did not dare to take the risk and went up to deal with these three old guys by herself.

"Well!" The two powerful heavenly spirits nodded and disappeared into the night with their steps. Yes, these two were dark spirits, and they were the best at hiding. In the dark, they were kings, and the dark spirits could hide their own aura, otherwise they would be easily seen through.

Xiao Hongyan looked at the soldiers who kept passing by, raised her head and looked at the sky. Perhaps this starry sky would belong to the Tang Empire after today, and the 200,000 troops gathered in Yongzhou would continue to move south from here and enter the Tianfu in Shuzhong.

Now most of the troops in Shu are gathered in the central part of Shuchuan, confronting the pope who occupied the three prefectures in Shu and established the country. It can be said that the power of the entire Shuzhong is there. From Jiange to the south, they faced only more than 20,000 or 30,000 Shuzhou troops, and they were all corrupt city guards.

Lord Jian, the eight prefectures in Shu can take down one prefecture in an instant, and as the army continues to move south, a sky will soon change in Shu.

Xiao Hongyan only stayed for a moment and led the soldiers with blood on her armor to Beiguan. As for the three old men of Tianling, Xiao Hongyan knew that they must have been drunk. Although a powerful man of Tianling is not so easy to kill, the three drunken Tianlings are just another thing.

It was deep in the night, and the moon hung on the top of the sword peak. Through the crack, you could vaguely see the shaking figure below. The wind dragon was still roaring and blew, and a loud bang. Although the sound was quickly covered by the whistling wind, the dazzling fire was enough to see it clearly for miles away.

One, two, three, three, three, and three. Although the light only flashed, the Tang soldiers who were hiding on the mountain road several miles away and were paying attention to the changes in the pass suddenly stood up excitedly, even though the bleak north wind blew them covered with frost.

"Quick, hurry up, all of us will get up, let's go to Jiange!" That's right, Jiange has already passed away, and their plan has been successful. In order to win this Jiange, the price paid by the Tang Dynasty is extremely high. Just three hundred monkeys are worth tens of millions of gold. However, if you can successfully win Jiange, this transaction is worth it.

The three thousand Tang soldiers waiting here followed the howling wind dragon and rushed to the towering Jiange Pass in the distance. This time, no one could stop the Tang Dynasty's soldiers from moving south. The wealthy Shu general opened his arms to them.

Zhuque City, the palace in the sky, has been put into use for more than a month. The halls on both sides of the Tai Chi Hall are the main hall, which is used for a major court meeting every five days, while the usual small court meetings are held in the side hall of the Tai Chi Hall and the East Warm Pavilion.

Although Chuzhou in November is far less cold than the northern clouds, and even the first snow in winter has risen, as the north wind enters, the temperature has dropped a lot. In the early morning and evening, you can feel the coldness of winter.

Several small warmers were placed in the East Warehouse, and the best red sandalwood was burned inside. The aroma emitted by this wood burning has the effect of meditation and concentration.

"What! The Tang army seized the Jiange Pass and took down Xichuan Prefecture!" Leng Zhuo's eyes widened. In the past month, Leng Zhuo seemed a little busy. The Star Tower Island above his head needed planning and construction, Yangzhou also needed to recuperate, and the construction of the navy also required a lot of investment. The southern part of Qingzhou, which belonged to the empire, did not stop. The Tang army in the west rushed towards him like a hungry wolf. Instead, the tiger in the north responded half a beat before starting to exert force.

But with the arrival of winter, Leng Zhuo probably couldn't make any money in the north. After all, the consumption of mobilizing a large army in winter is not a small amount. Even if the Dragon Empire has funded the Futu Mountain and Jueqing Valley today, it cannot withstand such consumption.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the information sent back by the Intelligence Department has been confirmed. The Tang army has moved south from Yongzhou to enter the Tianfu in Shuzhong. Most of the main forces of the King of Shu were confronting the religious countries in the middle of Shuzhong. The rear was empty and there was no resistance at all. It was taken down by the Tang army. If it were not for the obstruction of Tianhe and tributaries, the Tang army would have taken down the other two prefectures in one go. However, now, the Tang army probably had gathered enough ships to continue to expand!"

"How is it possible? Jiange Pass is not the most dangerous pass in the world, and it is no less than Yuntian Fortress. How could it be captured so easily? Moreover, the arrangements of the mechanisms in Jiange Pass are not to say that if one of them is triggered, it can interrupt the Jiange Pass and seal the north side!"

"The intelligence department has not yet received a definite news, so I don't know how the Tang army took down Jiange Pass, but it is confirmed that the Tang army entered Shu. This is not good news!" Sun Wu said.

Leng Zhuo knew that it was purely a hindsight to investigate how Jiange lost it now. Even if it was found out, it would be useless. Compared to this, Leng Zhuo was more concerned about the progress of Ziyang County.

"How long will it take to pass through the army!" Since the excavation of Longshou Mountain, the Longshan Road passing through the northern edge of the 100,000 mountains has been prepared by Da Chu in full swing. As long as it is opened here, Da Chu can bypass the dangerous road of Tianhe and directly enter Shu from the southeast of Shu.

"Longshan Road has roughly been completed, and there is no problem with passing through the army. However, in the second half, the baggage cannot be passed. At the same time, there are still several planned relay stations under construction. Although Shu is rich, after entering Shu, we first entered the eight central government offices, but the southern chieftains' mansion. Although General Tan has gained the trust of some chieftains, if we want to enter the eight chieftains, we have to first sort out the two chieftains' mansions in the southeast!"

"How much time does this take!" Leng Zhuo asked directly. Shu must not be left to the Tang Dynasty. This is a consensus among the whole Chu. There were various reasons for not entering Shu before, but no one estimated that the Tang army could actually capture Jiange so smoothly, which was beyond expectations.

"It will take at least half a year before we can prepare for the army to enter Sichuan!"

"Half a year?" Leng Zhuo frowned. This was not the answer he wanted. In half a year, it was estimated that Shuzhong would fall. (To be continued...)
