    Chapter 1075: For Freedom Thirty thousand cavalry descended from Lingmen In the night, the cavalry ran like thunder.  Just when the martial arts conference in Chang'an City was bustling, Fang Jie and Jingqi had left Chunbo Pavilion City and headed straight for Lingmen Pass.  The Qingqiu advanced very fast. After leaving Chunbo Pavilion City, they traveled all the way. It only took ten days to reach the Qinhe River. Du Dingbei, who had received the general's order long ago, had already led his troops to build the pontoon bridge.  Opened over.  Du Dingbei followed Fang Jie's military order to guard the Qinhe River line. Before Fang Jie left Chang'an City, he had already sent people to build a pontoon bridge.  Fang Jie didn't stay in Qinhe for long, and left immediately after explaining some things to Du Dingbei.  Du Dingbei sent him thirty miles away before returning, and then ordered the pontoon bridge to be strictly guarded.  There is no need to dismantle these pontoon bridges. It will not be long before the army from Chang'an City moves south and has to pass through here.  ??After leaving Qinhe, everything is smooth sailing.  From Qinhe to Lingmenguan, follow the south bank of the river all the way west.  Lingmen Pass was built on Zhengming Mountain, which separates Shujing Road and Jiangbei Road.  The terrain of Shujing Road is very similar to that of Shandong Road in the northwest. Both are long from north to south and short from east to west.  The difference is that one side of Shandong Road is Langru Mountain and the other side is plain.  As for the Shujing Road, one side is Yishui River and the other side is Zhengming Mountain.  "If you can't reach Zhengming Mountain, you can't enter Jiangbei Road.  "The only way to cross Zhengming Mountain is Lingmen Pass.  This place is only dangerous, it can be seen.  The strategy of the Black Flag Army is to stop the Meng Yuan people as far as possible to the west of Yishui River. If they can't be stopped, there is still Lingmen Pass to defend.  The distance between Lingmen Pass and Yishui is actually the width of the Shujing Road.  Before coming here, many soldiers thought that Lingmen Pass was next to Yishui River, and that outside Lingmen Pass was the battlefield where they fought the Mengyuan people.  After arriving here, the soldiers realized that there was a whole garrison road in between.  To the west of Yishui River is Shanjiang Road. Song Zihui originally guarded Ping'an County, Ping'an County, Shanjiang Road.  After passing Ping'an County, there is Yishui. To the east of Yishui is Shujing Road. To the east of Shujing Road is Zhengming Mountain. To the east of Zhengming Mountain is Jiangbei Road.  Because the Meng Yuan people stepped up their offensive, part of the defenders at Lingmen Pass have been transferred to Yishui for support.  Yan Zeng, who originally led troops to guard Lingmen Pass, has led his troops to the east bank of Yishui River to set up defenses. Now it is veteran Liu Enjing who is guarding Lingmen Pass.  "Meet the prince!" Due to guarding the customs, Liu Enjing did not attend Fang Jie's king-proclaiming ceremony, so he gave a grand ceremony when they met, and his title became prince.  "Old General, please get up quickly." Fang Jie took two steps forward and helped Liu Enjing up: "We haven't seen you for a few months, Old General, it's hard to guard the pass." Liu Enjing quickly shook his head: "The war is in Yishui, and it's just worry here, but it's not hard work.  I am looking forward to the arrival of my lord, because as soon as my lord comes, it means that the counterattack against the Meng Yuan people will begin. This battle has been dragging on for several months, and it is time for the Meng Yuan people to know how powerful our Black Flag Army is.  , I want to fight! Although the responsibility of guarding the gate is heavy, the bones in my body will be rusty without fighting. The sword needs to be sharpened by blood, and the bones in my body need to be tempered by fighting on the battlefield." "Haha" Fang Jie laughed: "  Since the old general is eager to fight, I will allow you. After I lead the troops through Lingmen Pass, you will leave three thousand elite troops to guard the pass, and then lead the army to counterattack if nothing happens.  It's time to start." "Great!" Liu Enjing immediately became excited. This veteran had not caught up with the first Western Expedition and had been looking forward to a real fight with the Meng Yuan people.  After all, so many of his old friends led troops to the northwest, thinking that they could make more achievements, but in the end, they were defeated and died one by one.  Maybe, he has more emotions than others.  "My lord, news just came from the east bank of Yishui River yesterday. The Meng Yuan people's offensive is getting more and more fierce day by day. I have been worried after hearing this. I am afraid that this is a sign that Brother Meng is trying to escape." Fang Jie nodded.  : "Nine times out of ten this is the case, that's why I rushed here from Chang'an City. In the Central Plains, is it possible for the Mongolian and Yuan Tatars to come and leave whenever they want?" "My lord, what if?  If you can send a good general to lead troops behind Meng Yuan and block his return, you may be able to capture Meng Ge alive in this battle! Meng Yuan has been a country for more than a thousand years, except for the Emperor Meng Yuan and the Great Sui Dynasty.  Emperor Taizu of the Sui Dynasty suffered some losses in the battle. In the war in the Central Plains, the Mongolian Yuan people had always had the advantage. It must be said that the Mongolian Yuan people's cavalry was indeed very strong. During the previous dynasty of Zheng State, the northwest was invaded by the Mongolian Yuan people several times, and the people were ravaged.  If the Great Khan of Meng Yuan could be captured alive this time, it would be a reprieve! In the past thousand years, no Great Khan of Meng Yuan had led his troops so far into the Central Plains. Brother Meng would be too conceited if he could be captured alive.  If so, Meng Yuan will definitely be in ruins." Fang Jie said with a smile: "IWe have arranged for someone to go there, old general. If you try to capture Brother Meng yourself this time, you can leave your name in history.  Liu Enjing said excitedly: "As a general, if I can fight like this, my life will be enough!"  Fang Jie said as he walked: "Old General, after you lead your troops to the east bank of Yishui River, you don't have to wait for my military orders to act."  You can lead your troops down the Yishui River, and I will arrange naval warships to meet you.  After you cross the river, don't worry about the war. Just guard the main road to the south of Ping'an County.  "    "ah?  "Liu Enjing was startled: "If Brother Meng is defeated, he will definitely flee to the northwest. Why does the lord ask me to guard the southeast?  Fang Jie said with a smile: "Just go, there may be a great achievement waiting for you."  "     After the team replenished supplies at Lingmen Pass, they set off again. For Qingqi, the width of the Jingjing Road is really not that far away. Among the 30,000 Qingqi that Fang Jie brought this time, one of them  Most of them were veterans when the Black Flag Army was first established. The combat capabilities of these cavalry were extraordinary. Zhuge Wuyuan and Liu Xuri were both generals who were able to lead an army when the Black Flag Army was first established.  Both of them were generals during the Sui Dynasty's first expedition to the west. The two of them have not forgotten the humiliation of that disastrous defeat and the collapse of the 700,000-strong army in an instant. In fact, Fang Jie actually picked up a big one.  It's cheap. After the defeat, the team that built the camp on Langru Mountain after escaping from the grassland can be said to be the best of the best. You can imagine the quality of these people who could survive such a great rout.  You know. All the strength accumulated by the county prince Yang Kai on Langru Mountain was given to Fang Jie. It was the team of the Black Flag Army that Fang Jie relied on to form Zongheng.  A feat of thousands of miles. From training in the grasslands, to fighting back to the northwest, and then going straight to the southwest, this team has been tempered for many times. The troops of Chen Dingnan and Chen Banshan who are now resisting Meng Lie in the northwest are actually the first members of the Black Flag Army.  , mostly soldiers who were trained after the Zhuque Mountain Camp was established. Fang Jie led 30,000 troops from Lingmen Pass to Shujing Road, and after ten days, they arrived at a place called Qilipo on the east bank of Yishui River.  Opposite Qilipo is Ping'an County. At this time, Yan Zeng's troops, Xu Xiaogong's troops, and Navy Duan Zheng's troops were stationed on the east bank of Yishui River, with no less than 100,000 troops relying on the danger of Yishui River.  , even though the Meng Yuan army on the other side of the river was no less than 500,000, the Black Flag Army still did not fall behind. The one who made the greatest contribution in this blocking battle was undoubtedly the navy.  "These generals all met each other with great courtesy. "How is the war going?  " After Fang Jie asked everyone to get up, he didn't exchange any pleasantries and directly asked about the war. "Strange" Duan Zheng's answer was a little beyond Fang Jie's expectation. "Strange?  What's strange?  " Fang answered the question. Duan Zheng said: "In the past few days, the Mongolian people attacked fiercely every day regardless of the cost. However, starting from the day before yesterday, the offensive has slowed down. As of today, there has not been a single attack.  I was worried that the Meng Yuan people were about to evacuate, so I sent scouts to the other side by boat to secretly investigate, but found that the number of people and horses in the Meng Yuan camp had not decreased. After observing for half a day, there was no sign of troop movements.  " "If you don't fight, you won't leave?  " Fang Jie was silent for a while and then shook his head: "This is indeed a bit strange.  " "And that's it.  " Duan Zheng pointed to the other side: "There is the camp of the Meng Yuan Black Mountain Army. The combat power of this Black Mountain Army is still higher than that of the Meng Yuan Wolf Cavalry. Those soldiers are not afraid of death.  However, this afternoon, the Montenegro Army withdrew no less than ten miles to the west. It was the Montenegro Army that had been attacking fiercely before.  " "Over there is the camp of Meng Yuan Langqi. After the Black Mountain Army retreated ten miles, Meng Yuan Langqi also retreated ten miles. The two camps are still side by side, but they are not as connected as before.  " Fang Jie pondered for a while and pointed to a big boat: "Get on the boat, I want to cross the river to see it!  " Without waiting for anyone to dissuade him, Fang Jie strode out. Standing on the bow of the big ship, Fang Jie raised his clairvoyance to observe the other side. On the other side, he could see the wolf cavalry team patrolling back and forth, but the camp had indeed been withdrawn for at least ten miles.  Far. This is obviously something unusual. If the Meng Yuan people want to withdraw, there is no need to withdraw only these ten miles. Fang Jie previously speculated that the Meng Yuan people attacked to cover up their retreat, but now, after the Meng Yuan people attacked fiercely.  Stopped but didn¡¯t go. ¡°Over there!  " Duan Zheng suddenly pointed in a direction, which was the clearing space between the Black Mountain Army Camp and the Wolf Cavalry Camp. On the east bank of the river, due to the terrain,??, I couldn't clearly see the scene here. When the boat was approaching the west bank of the river, I saw that between the Montenegrin Army camp and the Mongolian camp, there were two groups of people facing each other.  "Is it possible that the Meng Yuan people are having internal strife?" Xu Xiaogong speculated: "My lord sent people to spread the news about the Meng Lie rebellion in the northwest. Could it be that Brother Meng really believed it, and the man named Gai She from the Black Mountain Army also believed it, so Gai She and  What's the conflict between Brother Meng?" "It's too obvious" Fang Jie suddenly said these three words.  Too obvious?  Duan Zheng, Xu Xiaogong and others did not understand what Fang Jie meant at first. After thinking for a while, Yan Zeng suddenly thought: "My lord, what you mean is that the Meng Yuan people are making a false impression?"    Meng Yuan Langqi Camp  In the tallest tent.  Brother Meng glanced at the three heads on the tray in front of him and couldn't help but frown.  These are three heads with identical faces. They have exactly the same name, Da Zi Zi.  At this time, the two people sitting opposite Meng Ge, one was the Montenegrin Army General Gai She, and the other was a living Da Zi Zai.  "Now, Khan, can you rest assured?" This great freedom of living is exactly the second great freedom that day.  It was he who first began to doubt the god in Dalun Temple.  Brother Meng nodded: "What is the purpose of doing this?" Gaishe was silent for a while and then said solemnly: "I don't want to be the enemy of the Khan, but I don't want to fight this battle anymore.  Khan should know that whether this rumor is true or not, there must be some on our side, and there must be some on Meng Lie's side. Therefore, in all likelihood, Meng Lie has really led his troops back. " "I killed three.  Da Zi Zai wants to tell Da Khan that if you want Da Zi Zai to kill me, you can't succeed. But I want to kill you, Da Khan, easily. I don't do it, not because I'm afraid of anything, but because I don't want to cause chaos in the grassland.  . As for the future, let¡¯s finish this battle first.¡± Brother Meng asked, ¡°Do you want to set up a trap to make the Black Flag Army think that I have a conflict with you and attract the Black Flag Army to come over?¡±  Nodding: "Exactly, as long as the Black Mountain Army and the Great Khan's Wolf Cavalry pretend to fight, the Black Flag Army will not miss this opportunity and will cross the river to attack in large numbers. At that time, the Black Mountain Army and the Wolf Cavalry will suddenly encircle the Black Flag Army.  The army will be defeated. In this way, the Khan can return to the grassland without any worries." Meng Ge hesitated for a while and asked: "What exactly do you want to do?" Da Zizi answered seriously: "It may be a bit detoured.  The crooked road is just for freedom." He pointed at Gai She: "He is" Then he pointed at himself: "Me too."
