Iron Dynasty

Chapter 661: Dumbfounded Zheng Chengwen

"Gyeongju City is lost!"

Wu Shu Bone frowned in the silver tent.

Three days ago, Zheng Chengwen led a group of cavalry soldiers from Juyongguan to the silver tent of the Golden Horde. He needed to tell Wu Shugu the news.

At that time, King Liang sent envoys to the Shengdu of the Golden Horde. As one of the envoys, he and Wu Shugu had some intersection.

"The news is true. King Qi's army in Yunzhou City defeated the Allied Forces of the Three Kings, and then they attacked the Liang Kingdom like a broken bamboo." Zheng Chengwen's eyes drifted.

Wu Shugu squinted at Zheng Chengwen, and he said with a cold snort, "In that case, why didn't you tell me the news earlier, I'm afraid you have a ghost in your heart, you want to replace King Liang and replace it."

Zheng Chengwen was taken by Wu Shugu’s words, and the whole person was taken aback. He just wanted to explain, Wu Shugu suddenly said, “You don’t have to explain, it doesn’t matter who King Liang is to our Golden Horde, but Just be obedient enough."

Zheng Chengwen was overjoyed when he heard this. He said: "Taiji, King Liang has always been against Taiji, but I have a sincere heart towards Taiji."

Wu Shugu nodded slightly. He said, "This King Qi seems to be the confidant of my Golden Horde. If it weren't for the Japanese attacking Goryeo at this time, it would have been destroyed by the whole nation."

Zheng Chengwen said: "Taiji said that, but now King Qi's army is not firmly established, it is too late at this time."

Wu Shugu frowned, "It's just that Father Khan is unwilling to fight on two fronts. Even if you support you, you can only send 30,000 cavalry and 70,000 slave soldiers. Only after the Korean War can we concentrate on fighting King Qi."

"Taiji, it's just that I'm afraid that King Qi will kill King Zhao at that time, and no one will be able to help Taiji." Zheng Chengwen was a little worried.

He came here this time hoping that the Golden Horde could send troops to help him regain the city of Liang Kingdom, so he was justified as King Liang.

After all, now that King Liang was arrested and the second prince died in battle, he was the only one left in this place to inherit the rule.

"What you said makes sense, but Bentaiji still has nothing to do. The worries of the Japanese nation are right in front of him. This is a provocation against the Khanate. Father Khan was furious, but at this time he couldn't take care of King Qi. Father Khan prepared for you and King Zhao, but the others are really gone." Wu Shugu said.

Zheng Chengwen was extremely disappointed. These soldiers were at best enough for him to defend Juyong Pass.

Seeing Zheng Chengwen's thoughts, Wu Shugu said, "These people are for you to guard Juyong Pass. When the war in Korea is over, I promise to lead the army to destroy King Qi."

Zheng Chengwen sighed in his heart, and now he can only do this, he said: "I only hope that Taiji can lead his troops to come as soon as possible."

Wu Shugu nodded.

Zheng Chengwen didn't dare to stay longer. After he said goodbye to Wu Shugu, he hurried back to Juyongguan, but when he arrived in front of the pass with the support of the barbarian, he was immediately killed for approval.

At this time, Juyongguan was still a soldier of the Liang Kingdom, clearly the Qi Wang army wearing a green uniform, but Juyongguan had changed hands in six or seven days.

"Return me to Juyongguan!" Zheng Chengwen cursed. He had never predicted that King Qi's army would take Juyongguan so soon.

But the only response to him was the roar of artillery.

At the same time, Niu Ben also arrived at Juyongguan.

He was ordered to supervise the battle. He never thought that he had heard the news of King Yang's capture as soon as he arrived in Gyeongju, and then he hurried to Juyongguan.

Because Lu Fei immediately led an army to attack here.

Entering Juyong Pass, Niu Ben immediately felt a pre-war tension. The people who came and went in Juyong Pass were walking in a hurry, with worrying expressions on their faces. There was not a vendor on the street, and heavily armed soldiers from time to time. The alley appeared.

"The general chariot must be tired. Let's go to the camp first." Lu Fei said with a look of fatigue on Niu Ben's face.

Niu Ben shook his head and said, "No, war is urgent. How many barbarian soldiers have arrived outside the city."

"Returning to the general, according to the identification of the soldiers in the city, this person is the Juyongguan Guardian Zheng Chengwen. This time he is estimated to be a soldier and horse borrowed from a barbarian. The number is about 100,000, including 30,000 cavalry and 70,000 slaves. Soldiers."

Juyongguan is the northwest gateway of the Great Yu Kingdom. Between Liang State and the Golden Horde, there are many mountains around Juyongguan, especially on the side adjacent to the plateau. There are high mountains and roads. This Juyongguan is located at the gateway to Liang State. Throat.

The construction of Juyongguan is also based on its military characteristics. It faces south and faces north. The city wall on the north is thick and high. The Juyongguan camp is stationed in Beicheng, defending against threats from the barbarians at any time.

When the two of them arrived in West City, there were obviously more soldiers here, and they were very busy, constantly shuttled back and forth, holding ammunition, and carrying stones everywhere.

Ye Qingyun said at this time: "This time I was able to successfully win the Juyong Pass thanks to the Yong Army. Chen Xinran also led the siege and took the last city of Liang State with us."

Niu Ben showed admiration when he heard the words, he said: "I didn't expect that there would be a good general under King Yong."

"This Chen Xinran is a talent." Lu Fei did not deny it either.

The three of them reached the camp, and the city wall was in front of them.

The city wall of Juyongguan is not high, only about twelve meters long. It is cast from bluestone and looks very strong. After climbing the two-meter-wide stairs to the tower, Niu Ben's field of vision suddenly appeared green grassland.

Not far from the pass are the wandering barbarian cavalry and barbarian slave soldiers.

Picking up the binoculars and looking at the barbarian soldiers not far away, Niu Ben observed for a while and muttered: "Don't worry~lightnovelpub.net~ These are not the elite of the barbarians. The emperor is really cleverly calculated. The barbarians are now unwilling to fight on two fronts, so they sent The cavalry is not elite either."

Lu Fei and Ye Qingyun also breathed a sigh of relief. He said, "General, the soldiers have fought hard for several months. Now they are extremely tired. It's time for the soldiers to fix up for a while."

Niu Ben understood what Lu Fei meant. The problem caused by the continuous hard fighting was the soldier's war exhaustion, which needed to be vented through repair and relaxation.

After pondering for a while, he said to Lu Fei: "Go and collect the smoke and dust women from the Liang country, pay them some money, let them sing a song to the soldiers, but don't force them, lest you ruin the emperor's reputation."

Lu Fei's eyes were kept constant, not to mention the soldiers. He himself felt that his mood was irritable during this period. This was all caused by the suppression of the war. It is naturally wonderful to have this pleasure.

So he was naturally willing to carry out this matter, so he smiled and said, "General, do you want to pick you up?"

"Get off." Niu Ben stared in anger, "It wasn't for people to find someone for the bottom of the bed. If you are crazy, see how Ben will deal with you!"
