    On the morning of August 23, the white wolf stuffed goose feathers into its mouth.

    Zhilifushe Ashina Duli commanded an army of 20,000 to launch an attack. The Yanbei Army generals Su Dingfang and Sima Changan, who faced him head-on, and the two Yingyang Mansion twelve regiments led by 2,400 elite Northeastern soldiers  .

    Since Jialan became the commander-in-chief of the Yanbei Army and presided over the expansion of the army, the number of the Yanbei Army has skyrocketed, expanding to 134 regiments in a short period of time.  In order to facilitate command, Jialan added fifteen Yingyang mansions to the original seven Yingyang mansions in Yanbei, and reported to the emperor for approval.

    ??Due to confidentiality considerations, the emperor neither told the central government about this matter, nor discussed it with the generals of the Wei Mansion, nor issued a special edict for this matter. Instead, he gave Jialan the power to deal with the situation as the situation arises. To put it bluntly, he allowed you to kill first and report later.  So Jialan not only established fifteen more Yingyang mansions in Yanbei, but also appointed fifteen Yingyang generals, fifteen Yingshitong generals, thirty Yue cavalry captains, and thirty infantry captains.  Many meritorious soldiers of the original Dragon Guard were successfully promoted in this army expansion.  The emperor has fulfilled his promise and has not treated his meritorious officials badly.

    Su Dingfang thus became the youngest Ying Yanglang general in the empire. Although he has not yet received the documents of surrender, if he wins this battle and the emperor rewards them based on their merits, he will definitely recognize these officers promoted by Jialan.  This was a matter of favor, and anyone would do it, not to mention that the emperor also won a large number of officers who were loyal to him.

    As far as the Yanbei Army itself is concerned, the promotion of officers after this expansion has a very obvious effect on improving the morale of the army and inspiring the morale of the army. Everyone in the Yanbei Army knows that their commander-in-chief is a man who puts merit first and is loyal to the iron-blooded warriors.  General, we can only fight bloody battles.  Only by defeating the Beilu, only by winning military merit, can one be promoted to a higher rank, and can one retain or gain more vested interests.

    The battle was extremely fierce from the beginning.

    The pass at Efeikou is strong, the passage is narrow, and there is the natural obstacle of Efeishui. Coupled with the criss-crossing trenches and the dense horse-repelling formations in them, it is indeed easy to defend but difficult to attack.  It must be attacked even if it is difficult to attack. For the Beibei, they must take this pass.  They must return to the desert safely with Khan and his brothers and friends who are fighting far ahead. For this reason, they have no choice but to fight to the death.

    Plure Astana's chestnut is very calm, confident, and calm.  He first gave his soldiers a good sleep to restore their physical strength, and then asked the slaves who accompanied the army to use local materials to make a batch of attack equipment overnight. He also sent scouts to carefully inquire about the battlefield situation and came with Shanyang City.  After Lifa and Kangshouli established contact, the two armies attacked Bailangsai front and back, and it was said that they were sure of victory.

    His analysis and judgment of the battle situation are basically consistent with Kang Sheoli.  He also believed that Yanmen was a trap, and that the White Wolf Fortress was the key for the Chinese to encircle their own army.  So there is no doubt that the devil Jialan must have brought all his devil army.  From this extrapolation, China must have already learned the top secrets of the Yazhang. Since the end of the conquest of Goguryeo, they have set up plans step by step, and today they have finally completed the siege of the Turks, and they have completed it on their own homeland.  With this strategic layout, we have taken advantage of the right time, place and people.

    It¡¯s just that the Turks are not barbaric and brainless people, and they have taken precautions against this.  At the beginning, Khan was in front of Yanmen in Nanxiagouzhu.  The purpose of deliberately leaving 150,000 control strings in Yunnei was to reverse the war situation in time and counter-encircle the imperial army when the war situation changed dramatically.  Only by killing more imperial troops and maximizing the impact on and weakening the empire's northern garrison force will the victory of this war be meaningful, and the strategic goal of occupying Daibei and entering the central territory be truly achieved.

    Starting from this goal, Tilifushe Ashinaduoli should mobilize more troops from Yunnei to go south to attack Bailangsai, but Tilifushe must take into account the fierce conflicts within the desert and Yazhang.  He was worried that hostile forces in the desert would take the opportunity to rebel, and that the political opponents in the tents would collude with both inside and outside China and betray the interests of the Turks. Therefore, he established Ashina Douna in Mohedu and did not command his army to attack Yanbei.  He would not send another soldier from Yunnei to the south until he had firmly restrained the imperial army that was guarding Yanbei, and had not protected his entire rear flank, especially Yunnei City, from the threat of the imperial army.  If Yun Nei is lost, the Turks will be in danger of being annihilated.

    The fierceness at the beginning of the war did not attract the attention of Su Dingfang and Sima Changan.  The two agreed that this was a tentative attack by the Beilu, and there was no need to invest the main force. They first used two regiments to defend Efeishui to prevent the Beilu from setting foot on the river embankment.

    The width of Goose Fei Water is only a few feet. Because it is located upstream and the water flow is fast, it is very inconvenient to wade across the river, especially under the attack of the dense arrow formation on the other side, it is even more difficult to move forward.  On the other side, from the shallow water area to the river beach, and from the river beach to the river embankment, there are Juma and Luzhai, making every step forward very difficult.  When we get to the river beach, we not only have to face an overwhelming barrage of long arrows, but we also have to face a horse-rejection formation and criss-crossing trenches.  There are sharp wooden stakes laid in the trench. If you accidentally fall down, you will be in danger of returning to the underworld.

    A lot of excitementAfter that, instead of rushing to the south bank of the river embankment, the Beilu suffered heavy casualties. There were corpses all over the river and the river beach, but the Beilu soon found a countermeasure.  They assembled a simple car body using rafts made overnight and laid on the trench. The attacking soldiers hid in the car body and carried the car body forward to avoid the attack of the arrow array.  This method was simple and practical, and a large number of northern captives successfully reached the other side of the river.  If the number of attackers is large and they are fully prepared, the role of the defensive horses and trenches will be limited.  The imperial guards had to fight hand-to-hand with the enemy, and the fighting between the two sides quickly became intense.

    Su Dingfang was young and energetic. He led a regiment and rushed forward crazily. He took the lead and was unstoppable.

    However, how could Lifushu, who was personally taking command at the front line, be willing to give in?  He ordered more troops to be deployed, and they must rush through the Goose Feather River at all costs and reach the pass.

    The battle became more and more fierce.  In the afternoon, Sima Changan couldn't bear it anymore and persuaded Su Dingfang: If we continue to fight like this without giving up an inch of ground, our losses will be too great, but the enemy's troops are constantly being replenished. As one goes down and the other goes up, the battle situation will inevitably be different.  My disadvantage.  We only have ten regiments, and they will be gone after the battle.  This is a decisive battle between the north and the south. Both sides have invested hundreds of thousands of troops. The entire battle will last at least more than a month. The battle has just begun. When the main force of the northern captives who went south to Yanmen has withdrawn, the two sides will fight bloody battles in Baibai.  When the wolf is trapped, that is the real decisive battle.  Now you are fighting desperately and have beaten everyone. When the decisive battle comes, you can only sit aside and stare. Moreover, you have also affected the overall deployment of General Jialan, and may even affect the outcome of this decisive battle.  .

    Su Dingfang was just in the mood to kill, he was killing so heartily that his eyes were red from the killing, and he couldn't listen to the persuasion at all, but the four words "General Jialan" suddenly woke him up, and the boiling blood in his body gradually subsided.  Sanity also slowly recovered.  He is where he is today because he followed General Jialan. His future is closely tied to the fate of General Jialan. If General Jialan withers away because of this war, he will be doomed.

    "Retreating so soon?" Su Dingfang asked angrily, unwilling to do so.

    Sima Changan pointed to the other side of the river and shook his head with a wry smile, "The Northern invaders are rushing towards me with a force several times my own. How can we fight? The only way to hold on is to defend the pass and rely on the danger of the pass to stop the Northern invaders."

    Su Dingfang was extremely aggrieved. In anger, he couldn't help shouting to the sky, "Retreat!"

    That afternoon, on the Huanghuadui battlefield, Kang Sheoli, who was arrayed on the golden beach, hesitated for several hours without issuing an attack order.

    His five thousand elite cavalry are all powerful soldiers. Over the years, they have followed him in the desert, conquering the north and south, conquering the east and west. They are invincible in battles, invincible in attack, and invincible in all directions.  This elite cavalry was his strength and his glory. He really couldn't make up his mind to let these warriors dismount and fight. That would be equivalent to letting them die, letting them fall sadly and shamefully on a foreign land.

    He has only heard about Jialan in the past year, but the name Jinlangtou is like thunder to his ears.  The resurgence of the Desert Turks is directly related to the changes in the situation in the Western Territories in the past ten years. It is precisely because of the struggle for hegemony among the heroes in the Western Territories that the Desert Turks have time to recuperate.  The changing situation in Western Turkey is closely related to China's national defense and diplomatic strategies, among which Pei Shiju and Jin Langtou are the key figures.  The Golden Wolf Head has always been mysterious, and the divine dragon has never seen its end. It was only recently that the Turks connected the sudden rise of Jialan in the Middle Earth with the Golden Wolf Head.

    The golden wolf head is Jialan, and Jialan is the golden wolf head.  In the eyes of the Turks, the Golden Wolf Head was cunning, cruel, and bloody, and Jialan vividly demonstrated his violent nature by massacring and burning the city during the expedition to Goguryeo.  When fighting against such an opponent, one must be a hundred times more cautious, and one must not easily give up the initiative and let the opponent lead the way. Of course, one must not do such stupid things as using one's own shortcomings to attack the enemy's strong points.  Kang Sheoli decided that if he ordered his five thousand elite cavalry to dismount and fight, it would be a sheep entering the tiger's mouth and seeking death.

    After noon, the scouts reported back and found that Leifash was commanding the army to forcefully cross the Efeishui. The battle was very fierce, but he pressed forward and was determined to reach the Eifeokou before dusk.

    Kang Sheaili had no choice but to order an attack.

    Responsible for defending Huanghuadui are the two Yingyang Mansion led by Qiao Er and Gao Tai, who are also elites from the Northeast.  The main force of the Yanbei Army is now on standby near the White Wolf Fortress. Their opponents are Shibi Khan and the main force of the Beibei Army. They are currently recharging their strength. At the moment of the decisive battle, it will be up to them to fight in a bloody battle.

    Jialan was on the pile of yellow flowers. When he saw Kang Sheoli finally ordered the attack, his expression suddenly became solemn. However, the next scene couldn't help but make him sneer. Kang Sheoli only sent out a few hundred people, which was completely symbolic.  sexual assault.

    Kang Sheoli wanted to preserve his strength. At the end of the day, Khan and the main force of the Northern Lu did not withdraw to the White Wolf Fortress.Now, he would not risk his life and fortune to attack with all his strength.

    "This is an excellent fighter plane." Xi Xing beamed with joy, a murderous intent flashing through his eyes.

    Jialan nodded slightly and said coldly, "He doesn't dare to fight, but so-and-so dares to fight. Let's go to Goosekou."
