In Wuguan, Chen Yue and others were holding a military report and frowning slightly. It was a battle report sent from the front line of Tianning Road.

Although the letter said it was a small victory, no one was happy at all.

The Long Army actually started a war on another front before the Jiangnan War was over. When did Yuwen Xingchen have such ambitions?

What the Long Army was most afraid of before was that the Liang Army took advantage of their battle with the Wu Army to take advantage of the situation and go south. For this reason, they did not hesitate to make a covenant with the Yan Army that would humiliate the country.

Zhuge muttered confusedly:

"I'm afraid that the Great Long Emperor's intention is not to invade Tianning Road and compete with us for territory, but simply to cause chaos for us and to involve the troops we can mobilize."

"Everyone knows the ambition of a wolf."

Xue Tian said expressionlessly:

"Once they take action in Tianning Road, part of our troops from Liaodong and Beiliang will go to the front line of Tianning Road, so that the Yan army can form a greater military advantage over us.

I guess the Great Long Emperor is eager for us to lose to the Yan Rong. It would be best to fight them until both sides lose, and then he will mobilize the troops from the south of the Yangtze River to go north to reap the benefits!"

They only need to use their brains to guess Yuwen Xingchen's attention. If Beiliang mobilizes reinforcements to deal with the Long Army, the border war will be in danger. If you don't mobilize troops, the Long Army will follow the tide and invade Tianning Road.

.

No matter what, Liang Jun will be the one who suffers the most.

This was a conspiracy in front of Liang, Long, and Yan. Because of the victory in the Jiangnan battlefield, the Long army suddenly became the party with the initiative.

Chenyue said coldly:

"Even if we can all see Yuwen Xingchen's strategy, we can only hold our noses and follow their path.

Otherwise, we will have to throw away Tianning Road and even Pinghan Road."

Tianning Road and the formidable passes on the border of Beiliang are different. The city is not tall and strong, and the defense line is long and narrow. The tens of thousands of soldiers and horses guarded by the royal capital can block it for a while, but they can't stop it for a long time.

If the Yungu Army and Pocheng Battalion had not gone to the front line, I am afraid that this attack by Xu Zhichen and Yan Zhang would have resulted in a bloody battle on Wang Rusong's side.

"Grassland must have spies in the Central Plains. I guess Mu Yun Canglan can also deduce Yuwen Xingchen's intentions." Zhuge mumbled softly:

"Yuwen Xingchen has helped Yan Jun overtly and covertly~"

Chenyue crossed his arms, looked at Shule Mountain and said:

"I'm curious, Mu Yun Canglan didn't take any action?

It shouldn’t be, this is a great opportunity.”

These days, the Yan army has not made any moves except sending out a few waves of troops to sneak attack on the Wuguan city wall. The war at Tianlang Pass has also fallen into silence. The Yan army that was fighting in full swing last year suddenly stopped.

Somewhat weird~

Now that Mu Yun Canglan is not in a hurry to dominate the world?

Xue Tian also frowned slightly and said:

"It's a bit strange. Shouldn't Shen Tu Longfu take the initiative to attack?"

"Report, Your Majesty, I would like to see you all from Hengdu!"

At this moment, Xu Luo's voice came in from outside the door, and a strong man could be vaguely seen standing at the door.

"Is Heng Yinyang here?"

Zhuge was confused and said: "Heng Dutong comes to see the prince now, I'm afraid there won't be any good news~"

Heng Yinyang is in charge of the crossbowmen in the north. The frontal battlefield has temporarily fallen into silence. Their crossbowmen have no time to spare. They always need to go out to investigate the military situation. Heng Yinyang will never come to Chenyue if he has nothing to do.

Chenyue also had some bad premonitions in his heart, and he waved his hand and said:

"Please come in, General Heng!"

"promise!"

"General Heng, please!"

A strong man walked into the hall quickly. The armor on Heng Yinyang's body was still covered with a lot of dust, as if he had just returned from outside the customs and hadn't had time to change his clothes.

"I haven't printed the weight in Yang yet, so I'll see you, Prince!"

Xue Tian said doubtfully:

"Why is General Heng so dressed up and out of seclusion?"

"yes!"

Heng Yinyang nodded and said: "Something happened, so I will return to Wuguan without stopping."

"Something happened?"

Chen Yue suddenly sat up straight: "What's the matter? The Yan army is attacking again?"

"no."

Heng Yinyang said in a deep voice: "The crossbowmen found traces of human traffic in the deep mountains about thirty miles east of Wuguan, and there were quite a few people, at least hundreds of people, all walking through the mountains.

I just want to ask, has the prince or the Imperial Guard recently arranged for soldiers to leave the customs secretly?"

After all, his crossbowmen are not the only ones who can leave the border. Other military units may also leave the border under the king's orders to perform certain secret missions.

"Someone crossing the border?"

Xue Tian frowned: "They are definitely not our own soldiers and horses. The Wuguan garrison has not been dispatched for a long time. Except for you crossbowmen, no one will dare to cross the border without permission."

Heng Yinyang smiled bitterly:

"That's Yan Jun."

The last glimmer of hope in his heart was shattered. It seemed that Yan Jun came in~

"Where is it?" Chen Yue stood up quickly and walked quickly to the map, his eyes serious.

"This! From here to here, and then the footprints disappeared. It must have been erased intentionally."

Heng Yinyang stretched out his hand and pointed on the map:

"I went to the scene as soon as I received the news. The mountain road was so hidden that it wasn't even a road. Normally, crossbowmen rarely patrol places like that.

Judging from the traces of footprints, the person must have been there for two or three days."

The border in Beiliang is too big. How can one or two crossbowmen of Qianhao defend the border so tightly? Even the local hunters can't say that those mountain trails are all clear. Take precautions.

There will be places that are missed.

"Yan Jun, it can only be Yan Jun!" Xue Tian said coldly: "But what does Yan Jun want to do when it suddenly sends a small group of infantry into the country?

A sneak attack on Wuguan or Tianlang Pass?

Such a small number of people is not enough for a single cavalry charge to kill them all."

In the past, Shentu Chenfeng, the young patriarch of the Shentu family, led hundreds of elites over the mountains and ridges into Beiliang, intending to attack Wuguan from behind. After a hard battle, they naturally returned without success and lost hundreds of soldiers.

The lives of soldiers.

Could it be that the Yan army did not believe in evil and still wanted to repeat its old tricks?

Zhuge added confusedly:

"It is also possible that a small group of troops entered the country to harass the people in an attempt to create chaos in our mainland."

Apart from these two reasons, they couldn't think of anything else they could do if Yan Jun entered the country.

Chen Yue frowned and asked:

"Have the crossbowmen been sent out to search?"

"Everyone has been sent out." Heng Yinyang nodded and said:

"It is a bit difficult to follow the direction of the footprints to find traces of Yan Jun. After all, it has been two or three days."

"The crossbowmen will continue to look for you, and then we will mobilize some cavalry from the left cavalry army to help you."

Chen Yue said in a deep voice: "No matter how many people come in, we must find them.

Tell Ye Xiaoxiao and Chi Ji that more troops must be sent to patrol in the direction of Tiannan City Gate these days to avoid following the Yan people's ways, and be more vigilant at Tianlang Pass!"
