Chapter 242 Divine soldiers descend from the sky at Iron Wall Pass

"What's the situation at Tiebikuan? Did Yue Feng know that our army has crossed the Dayingjiang River?"

An unusually tall young general, dressed in full Ming army uniform, stood on a huge rock on the mountainside, looking into the distance with a telescope in his hand. Not far behind him, there was a dangerous terrain.

The pass in the mountains opens to the south, with the words "Nanyanguan" written on it. However, there is an extremely fast river between it and Nanyanguan, which is the Daying River.

Guan is in the north of the river, and he is in the south of the river.

As soon as he opened his mouth, there was a general in his forties behind him who replied: "Young Marshal, it's hard to tell. Yue Feng has been operating in Longchuan for many years. In the first year of Wanli, he was fully fledged and killed Longchuan."

It has been more than ten years since the Sichuan chieftain Duo Shining and his family won the gold medal and talisman and fled to Burma. They accepted his false destiny and thought that Longchuan was the governor of Longchuan. During these ten years, he relied on the power of the Burmese mang chiefs to invade neighboring countries many times.

Ganya Xuanfu Division was also shrouded in his lustful power.

Marshal, the Ganya Xuanfu Division is located in the north of Longchuan. The Nanya Pass our army just captured was the first pass for Ganya to guard against Longchuan in the past. I am a little worried... There are probably Longchuan in the Nanya Pass.

If you want to do it carefully in Sichuan, it is better to completely seal the customs first and conduct an inventory of the customs to prevent anyone from tipping off Yue Feng."

The young general looked expressionlessly in the direction of Nanya Pass and asked: "Xin'er, how far is Nanya Pass from Tiebikuan?"

This question was not directed at the veteran who had spoken just now. At this time, a tall woman wearing men's clothing casually replied: "It's not far, the straight-line distance is only about twenty miles, but if brother wants to attack directly, I don't think so."

It’s a bit difficult to handle.”

The young general frowned slightly, turned around and asked, "Why? If it's just that the mountain road is difficult to walk, it won't be difficult for my surrendered Japanese soldiers and the elite Sichuan troops. You know this."

He turned around, and it was Liu Xing and Liu Xingwu who were evaluated by Gao Pingshijun as "the first choice for breaking through the formation". And the woman dressed in men's clothing who he called "Xin'er" was naturally Liu Xin.

.

Liu Xin's men's clothing seems to be worn only for convenience. Her bun still maintains the common style of girls, but the jewelry is very simple, with only a plain silver jade hairpin inserted horizontally in the middle of the bun.

Her status in front of her eldest brother Liu Wei seems to be quite special. Not only can she go out with the army, but she even speaks quite casually: "Because people are easy to handle but artillery is not."

Liu Xin spread her hands for a moment: "Although the batch of artillery sent by Mr. Gao is much easier to transport than ordinary artillery, you can't expect them to keep up with your surprise attack in such a ghost place - the artillery can't reach it, you have to

Are you going to take human lives to fill the Iron Wall Pass?"

Liu Wei was silent for a moment and replied: "It is easy to fight with artillery, but I am not someone who cannot fight without artillery."

"Brother, I know you can fight without artillery, but the question is whether it is necessary." Liu Xin took three steps forward, walked to Liu Wei's side, stretched out her hand and pointed forward, and said, "Young Master Gao and Liu Fujun believe you."

I've received everything. Now on our journey, before Annan's army lands in southern Myanmar, we only need to capture Longchuan... What are you in a hurry for?"

Liu Wei stood motionless and replied: "Of course I don't want Tiebikuan to get the news and be too defensive."

"Yanshi? What's the use of strictness?" Liu Xin sighed helplessly: "Brother, in less than a month since you sent out troops, you have already broken through the three major passes of Qianya Xuanfu Division - Wanren Pass and Tongbi Pass.

, Nanya Pass, these three passes are all natural dangers. Before the war, which one was not claimed to be foolproof? But in fact, after several rounds of shelling from forty cannons, all the dangerous passes were reduced to ruins in a blink of an eye, and they were not like the Nine-sided Great Wall.

With such a body, how can you carry these cannons?"

Liu Wei didn't say anything, and Liu Xin smiled bitterly and said: "You just always feel that victory under bombardment is not real enough and cannot show your bravery, don't you?"

Unexpectedly, Liu Wei sneered and asked: "Xin'er, do you really think I still need to prove my martial prowess?" He shook his head: "In the martial arts competition, the reason why I didn't use the Miao Dao and long sword that I am better at is that I have to use it.

A big sword weighing 120 kilograms is spinning like flying, just to show the martial arts in front of those civil servants. After all, in their eyes, the greater the strength, the braver... Ha!"

"Besides, don't always think that my display of martial prowess is just due to my aggressive and fierce personality..." Liu Wei turned around and smiled at his sister: "This is just a way to boost the morale of the army."

"Oh?" Liu Xin was a little doubtful.

When Liu Wei saw it, he shook his head and smiled, and then sighed: "Xin'er, I'm not a high school prime minister, and I can't imitate his way of leading troops. You see, he is the nephew of Gao Wenzhenggong, and he comes from a family of civil servants.

He is also the number one scholar in six titles, and is the leader of the Ming Dynasty. Do the people in the world want to see his bravery? What a joke! The soldiers will not put their hope here. What everyone wants to see is that he is confident and strategizing, so he fights.

All you need to do is sit in charge of the central army and make arrangements, stay calm and plan appropriately, and the people under your command will naturally feel that they have a backbone.

But I am different. The reason why my father and son are what they are today is because of their bravery, their ability to break through the enemy formations, and their unstoppable force. The reason why my servants and soldiers follow me is because I can lead them to stir up passion, kill generals and capture flags, and then make achievements and make wives.

Yinzi!"

Liu Xin frowned slightly: "But the city passes that were bombarded, can't we record merit? Can't we make meritorious deeds and make our wives and children?"

"That's possible." Liu Wei said calmly: "But over time, they can only hide behind the cannons and shout a few times. Once there are no cannons available, or when they have to fight hand-to-hand, their true colors will be exposed... Sooner or later, they will fight with those in Nanjing

The guards are like rubbish. Those who are defeated when encountering the enemy are on the top. Those who are defeated when looking for the wind are among them. Those who are defeated when they hear the enemy are below."

When Liu Wei said this, he turned to look at Liu Xin again, looked into her eyes, and said seriously: "By then, the Liu family will be gone."

Liu Xin was silent for a while, then suddenly smiled: "If the elder brother can think so far, it seems that the younger sister is worrying too much. In this case, let's fight this battle however we want."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Liu Wei also smiled, nodded and said: "Okay." Then he ordered Ding Suran, his hometown man who was also wearing a military uniform: "Pass my general order to keep the local soldiers in Guangnan Prefecture.

Guard Nanya Pass, and the rest of the troops will immediately set out to attack Tiebikuan with me - I want to defeat two passes in a row within one day!"

After listening to Liu Wei's previous words, and receiving such a general order, the old servant already stood as straight as a javelin, shouted: "I have the order!" turned around and walked away quickly.

Liu Wei then said to another middle-aged man who looked like a businessman: "Please tell Mr. Cao that although the artillery is good, I don't intend to use it in Longchuan. Yue Feng... he is not worthy."

The middle-aged man looked troubled and said: "The general has the final say in military matters, but Master Cao once warned that Yue Feng alone had an army of 60,000. Now, although the general's troops are brave, they only have 5,000...

...Besides, the general has left the local soldiers of Guangnan Prefecture to guard Nanya Pass. With only more than 4,000 troops and horses in hand, how can Longchuan City be easy to fight even if Tiebikuan is captured?"

Liu Wei first sneered, and then said proudly: "The people of Longchuan are only more than 200,000, but now Yue Feng actually has a '60,000 army'. How good it is is anyone's guess. Such a large army, Liu

They are nothing more than chickens and dogs, so why bother!

You went to report to Mr. Cao and asked Mr. Cao to forward it to the High School Prime Minister. You said that Liu did not need any reinforcements from Bozhou in this battle at Longchuan, and he did not even use the native soldiers from eastern Yunnan he brought with him, so he used three thousand of his own troops.

Defeat Yue Feng's 60,000-strong army, and within one month, I will present the Yue thief's dog head to the emperor and the Prime Minister to show my great power!"

Liu Wei's voice was already powerful, but his words were even more resounding and resounding. Although the middle-aged man dressed as a businessman clearly felt that the difference in military strength was too great, for some reason, he felt blood surge in his heart and blurted out one sentence: "

May the general be victorious!"

Liu Wei nodded slightly and said solemnly: "May the Ming Dynasty be victorious!"

"Yes, the Ming Dynasty will be victorious!" The middle-aged man echoed loudly, and the savvy businessman's look on his face instantly disappeared. His waist that was usually slightly bowed straightened up, and he gave Liu Wei a fist: "Little one,

Immediately rush back to Kunming and deliver the message as soon as possible. Take care, General!"

"Take care and have a safe journey."

As soon as the trader left, Liu Xin suddenly said: "Brother, I now believe that Mr. Gao's statement that you 'defeat the front and break the formation, you must be the first choice' is not just a polite statement, but that you really have a sharp eye for pearls."

Liu Qing was stunned at first, and then laughed dumbly: "Did you always think that being a brother was just a waste of fame?"

Liu Xin did not answer, but said with a smile: "Now that I have boasted, I will wait and see what my elder brother can do."

Hearing this, Liu Wei laughed loudly: "Xin'er, when I was little, I could never defeat you on paper, but this time I want to show you that your eldest brother is worthy of the high school prime minister's words, 'The one who breaks the front and breaks the formation must be the first choice'!" said

Then he tossed his cloak, turned around and walked away quickly.

Liu Xin looked at her eldest brother's retreating back, the smile on her face gradually faded, and she turned her gaze towards the south, murmuring: "What kind of person is the Deputy Commander-in-Chief...?"

----------------------------------

The Guangxi wolf soldiers have always been known for their ability to climb mountains and ridges as if they were walking on flat ground. However, today Liu Wei proved with actual performance that the elite Sichuan troops under his command were no less conciliatory than those who surrendered to the Japanese. Although many of them were defeated

Yunnan, a place where spring is almost always present, was covered in bites from strange mosquitoes in the mountains, but it only took less than three hours to reach the outside of Tiebikuan.

Longchuan Xuanfu Division was originally the Ming Dynasty's external Xuanfu, so the two major dangerous passes in the territory are located to the west of Longchuan City. Among them, Tiebi Pass is located in the northwest of Longchuan City, and Huju Pass is located in the southwest of Longchuan City. They were the targets of defense in the early years.

They are the Manmo Xuanfu Division in the northwest and the Mengmi Xuanfu Division in the southwest.

However, Longchuan is now occupied by Yue Feng, and Man Mo and Meng Mi are both occupied by Myanmar, where he has taken refuge, so the defense of these two places was not too strict.

It wasn't until Liu Wei was transferred from the garrison in Yudong and Guizhou to Tengchong guerrillas, and brought with him the Liu Jiachuan Army and the Japanese surrendered Ding who had conquered ten southern provinces in the past, that Yue Feng became a little nervous and allocated 20,000 troops to the northeast of Longchuan.

Defense against Liu Wei - Theoretically, it is most convenient for Liu Wei to attack Longchuan from this direction.

However, Yue Feng was not sure about Liu Wei's personality. Liu Wei did not choose to go down the river without obstruction. Instead, he would rather break through the dangerous passes, first capture the Ganya Xuanfu Division, and then cut off Yue Feng's flanks.

After that, he fought a decisive battle with him in Longchuan.

Liu Wei's idea reflects his courage: I not only want to defeat you, I want to completely destroy you!

Because if he did not attack Ganya but directly attacked Longchuan, even if Yue Feng was defeated, Liu Wei would not dare to pursue him deeply because of his stable flanks. In this way, Yue Feng could calmly retreat westward and stay within the sphere of influence of Myanmar.

But Liu Wei first defeated the Ganya Xuanfu Division and pressed down from north to south, thus minimizing his own risk. As long as Yue Feng could not escape, he would be destroyed.

Although fighting like this does not mean that Liu Wei himself is not in danger, because the Manmo Xuanfu Division to the west of him is now Myanmar's territory, but because he came all the way to overcome dangerous passes, he left troops behind to garrison these areas that were originally intended for

He was prepared for the dangers of the enemy in the west, so even if the Burmese came from the west, his retreat would be able to hold on for a while - he believed that this period of time was enough for him to defeat Yue Feng and then return to the army for rescue.

What's more, since Mang Yingli himself was supervising the battle in the Xuanfu Division of Mo State further south, it is difficult to say whether the Burmese on the Man Mo side were so quick to make up their mind to send troops from the west.

This led to a result, that is, Yue Feng left 35,000 troops to guard the main city of Longchuan and sent 20,000 troops to guard the northeast. However, there were only less than 5,000 troops at Tiebikuan, which actually faced Liu Xi's army. In fact,

The military strength is equivalent to that of Liu Wei's troops.

But the strength of the troops is not the biggest problem of Tiebikuan. After all, although Yue Feng was very aggressive, Tiebikuan was built very early, and there was no plan to station more than 10,000 troops at that time. Therefore, the capacity of Tiebikuan itself is limited.

Five thousand people is actually almost close to the upper limit.

The real danger in Tiebikuan is that they just learned that Liu Wei captured Nanya Pass this morning.

At this time, the identity of the guard general of Tiebi Pass was quite unusual. He was Nan Xie, the son of Yue Feng. However, Yue Feng used his son as the guard general of Tiebi Pass not because of his outstanding ability, but because he was worried about Ming's counterattack.

The loyalty of his general was in doubt, so he had to replace him with his own son who would not betray him.

In fact, Nan Xie was less than twenty years old and had no experience in leading troops in the past. As soon as he heard the news that Qianya Xuanfu Division had been completely lost, and even Nan Ya Pass had been lost, the young master was confused.

His first reaction was not to strengthen the city defense, mobilize the morale of the army, etc., but to send seven groups of messengers to his father Yue Feng for help within three hours while running around anxiously in the White Tiger Hall at Tiebikuan.

And his biggest mistake was that after receiving the news of the fall of Nanya Pass, he did not even dare to tell his generals to prevent them from temporarily defecting. He even detained Xizuo, who risked his life to come back to report the news.

As a result, the iron wall was completely unprepared for Liu Wei's attack, until the Ming army banner with the words "Yunnan Yidong Guerrilla General Guan Tengchong garrison Liu" surged to the foot of the pass, and the Longchuan Army in the iron wall passed.

Only then did he realize that the divine soldiers had descended from heaven.

With their souls shattered, there was a burst of chickens and dogs jumping over the wall in the iron wall pass. Some people hurriedly went to notify Nan Xie, some people hurriedly reinforced the gate, some people hurriedly deployed soldiers to the tower to prepare for the battle, and some people were even more unbearable.

, has begun secretly preparing to flee.

At three o'clock in the morning, Liu Wei, who was sweating profusely but full of energy, stood arrogantly fifty feet below the Iron Wall Pass. He coldly looked at the situation behind the Iron Wall Pass and ordered: "Add three hundred troops to surrender to the Japanese."

Ding ascended first, and I personally led five hundred servants to then consolidate the city head and open the city gate."

Perhaps it was because Liu Wei often took the lead in battle, but none of his generals and servants stepped forward to stop him, the leader of an army, from putting himself in danger. Instead, they all clasped their fists and loudly promised, as if they had been waiting for this moment.

Liu Wei looked around at the generals and servants, nodded with satisfaction, and added: "Don't think it's easy for you - I'm as sweaty as you are now, so in an hour, I will be in the iron wall pass.

Shower and change clothes!”

The generals loudly said: "Don't worry, You Rong, one hour is enough!"

A group of servants even said loudly: "Young Commander, if you have more than an hour left, just wait, I will even boil the bath water for you, little one!"

As soon as he shouted out, someone ridiculed: "It's not a big achievement to boil the bath water, Chu Dashui, why don't you think about it and capture a few more beautiful female relatives of the rebel generals to help the young commander take a bath!"

"Yes, yes, this is much more interesting than having less bath water, don't you think so, Marshal? Uh... eldest lady, the younger one, the younger one has a mean mouth, the younger one can hold his own..."

Liu Xin snorted coldly, glanced at Liu Wei, and said, "Brother, I didn't say anything."

Liu Wei waved his hands and laughed dryly: "I didn't say anything..." Then he immediately glared at a few servants and cronies who were making noises, and said with a straight face: "If I see you cheating and sneaking around later, I will punish you.

You are not allowed to take a bath during the month! Go away, go and get ready!"

Everyone dispersed laughing.
