Chapter 524

There are few night stars, burning the Kinki of Beijing, and the heavy drag sound from the copper cast steel gate of Nanming pass opened a gap for one person to enter.

LAN Yan, wearing a cloak, looked up at the Nanming pass of Tianzhu earth engine. Nanmingguan is the first gateway to the south of Beijing. There are continuous Guanshan mountains in the west, blocking the north and South; There is an undercurrent Pingshui in the East, guarding the waterway. After the pass, there is the Kinki plain. You can go to Yanjing in two days. If you transport materials and soldiers through the "Yanjing Nanming" train line, the time can be reduced to half a day.

Although the door of Yanjing is wide open, there are only two main military roads, one is Beichen pass, and the other is Nanming pass. In addition to Dongyang's summer twilight meeting to enter Yanjing from Yanhe waterway, Beisan district often takes a detour to Beichen, and Nansan District, which is mountainous and difficult to take, only takes Nanming. For example, the train line from CHENFENG to Yanjing is to go around nanmingguan first and then transfer to Jingnan line.

Just a year later, the train line between Yanjing and the outer area has long been interrupted, and Nanming pass is strictly guarded. Even business travelers are strictly investigated, and recently they have entered a state of war readiness.

Nanming Guan is not nervous: in the past year, the blood source army hunted the first firewood to assassinate the consul of canglan and put the Sheriff of Yanan County on fire. The canglan District, which is already a strong folk custom, has become a speech hall for firewood. The blood source army is ready to move north at any time.

Half a month ago, CHENFENG Lanyan led the newly integrated Linhai Navy westward into canglan. Nanmingguan thought he could sit and watch the dog bite the dog. When the Linhai Navy and the blood army were almost consumed, he would attack and destroy the two groups of disorderly officials and thieves at one fell swoop. After all, the firewood is arrogant and Lanyan is cruel. Can the two wild hearted cubs live in harmony?

However, unexpectedly, the Linhai Navy and the blood source army reached an alliance. The two armies allied, sent troops north, stationed troops outside Nanming pass, forged siege equipment, and did not start the attack. Nanming pass is not afraid at all. The first pass in the world is not a false reputation. If you want to capture Nanming pass, you may have a chance to fill in the blood and bones of tens of thousands of people.

And from Nanming pass's point of view, LAN Yan and firewood are seemingly divorced and have different dreams. Once there are casualties in tackling key problems, they don't need to do more in Nanming pass. They will fight inside themselves.

Compared with the capture of Nanming pass, the benefits of annexing allies can be much greater. After all, Nanming pass is only the gateway to Yanjing. If you can't win Yanjing, Nanming pass is just a chicken rib; However, if we win an ally, the victorious side can rule the blue sky with "fierce soldiers" and the morning breeze with "abundant products". It can be said that there is a real "imperial atmosphere".

Nanming pass did not ask Yanjing for help, but Beichen pass was coveted by the troops from other regions, and the blood source army and the adjacent Navy had no capital to break Nanming pass. Therefore, Yanjing just asked to "stick to it".

When the siege equipment was almost made and the war was imminent, a letter was sent to Nanming pass from a secret channel. Therefore, LAN Yan entered Nanming pass alone at night.

LAN Yan and an attendant entered Nanming pass. They came face to face with rows of gunports full of senhan killing machines. Hundreds of gunfighters stood on both sides of the road and aimed at LAN Yan, the outer area commander. There are also many martial artists looking at LAN Yan provocatively, with a eager expression.

LAN Yan looked unchanged. He swaggered forward like he came home. On the contrary, his entourage smiled and whispered, "you are the most valuable prey now. Your name of 'unparalleled in the world' is just a shortcut to fame in the eyes of others."

Before LAN Yan answered, an earth shaking greeting suddenly sounded in front of him: "the unparalleled God will come. Tong is far from welcome. Please forgive me!"

A majestic general with a full height of more than two meters, a tiger back and a bear waist, an iron face and a steel crown and a heavy armor stood on the steps. Even if he is not armed, he just stands and gives people the impression of a landslide and sea tilt. He is not only like a peerless general on the battlefield, but also like a dead butcher!

In comparison, LAN Yan, who is 1.8 meters tall, even looks a little "weak and slim"!

"General Tong, don't make fun of LAN Mou." Lan Yan said with a bitter smile: "I don't know which Yanjing nobleman so 'appreciated' LAN Mou and gave him such a 'big gift'. LAN Mou is really ashamed of it, like walking on thin ice!"

The general who greeted LAN Yan was Nanming's guard general, Tong Xuanye, the "ferocious" Wu Zhu!

Yanjing wuzhu has always had a nickname. As the saying goes, only take the wrong name and don't shout the wrong nickname. However, because of Wu Zhu's great prestige, few people will make fun of Wu Zhu from his nickname, but there are always some special cases - some words are derogatory to outsiders, but commendatory to Wu Zhu, and will also become Wu Zhu's nickname.

For example, "crazy.".

Three maniacs in Yanjing, "death maniac" tea joy, "war maniac" Lou Yinhai, "ferocious" Tong Xuanye‘ "Crazy" refers to their behavior style, all of which are bold and reckless, and the previous word represents their ruthlessness.

The lightest one is naturally the "war maniac" Lou Yinhai. Because Lou Yinhai has always been in the imperial court and doesn't even have experience in the outer area, let alone in Yanjing, even in quanhuiyao, Lou Yinhai is the most gentle martial pillar and the only martial pillar who hasn't killed anyone - he will beat people half to death for such reasons as competition at most, and never deliberately offend people (unintentionally but often). Even if others secretly ridicule him, Lou Yinhai doesn't care (he doesn't understand irony).

The second is "ferocious" Tong Xuanye, known as copper skin, iron bone and steel spine. He doesn't worship the emperor and doesn't kneel when he sees the emperor. He is upright, or a little stunned. In case of any injustice, he will take the initiative to help punish evil and promote good.

If you encounter the accusation of Yan Guan, if the other party makes sense, Tong Xuanye will admit his mistake. If the other party makes no sense and even wants to oppress him with the help of things such as the overall public opinion, don't blame Tong Xuanye for beating people half to death.

The hottest thing to start with is naturally "death maniac" tea Huan. If Tong Xuanye and Lou Yinhai may be persuaded by the truth, chahuan is the one who doesn't dare to say the truth in front of him.

Who dares to speak big truth in front of him, chahuan's first step is to quote scriptures and spray him from the spiritual level, and the second step is to erase him from the physical level. If chahuan is interested, he will even drag the other party around the street, spraying and beating while making witty remarks, and at the same time, he will not forget to let the onlookers applaud and cheer up. He will make him die socially before the enemy's physical death, which can be called the ultimate nemesis of the bar elite.

But speaking of it, the three maniacs in Yanjing offended the most people. Instead, it was not chahuan, but Tong Xuanye. There was no other reason. Chahuan was too cruel. Everyone coached in front of chahuan and didn't give chahuan a chance to get angry; On the contrary, Tong Xuanye has the possibility of persuasion. Someone always wants to test it on the edge of death.

Although chahuan has many enemies, he has more friends. As a teacher, his popularity will only get better and better. Tong Xuanye was a pure soldier, only adding enemies but not friends. Therefore, Tong Xuanye was finally driven out of Yanjing and sent to garrison Nanming pass.

However, Tong Xuanye didn't care. He stayed at Nanming pass for three years and solved all the problems of corruption, empty pay and aging equipment in Nanming pass. Because Huiyao Chengping has been for a long time, as long as the people below are honest to worship, the former garrison wuzhu turned a blind eye to these problems. Is there anyone else coming to attack Nanming pass?

Until the meddling ferocious Wu Zhu came.

Perhaps it was unintentional, or perhaps it was vaguely expected that the first auxiliary order would leave three years ago. Anyway, Tong Xuanye made Nanming pass iron and steel, so Fang younanming pass is calm today.

LAN Yan took a look at the brightly lit garrison on the wall of the siege City, and then looked at the Gunners aiming at himself on both sides. He exclaimed, "general Tong is good at running the army. LAN is really an eye opener and ashamed."

"No," said Tong Xuanye casually in a voice like thunder, "they are far worse than stepping on the White army! General LAN, please."

LAN Bai said with a smile, "Youyun stepping on the White army is the most powerful army in Huiyao, and how many armies can be compared with stepping on the White army? Moreover, the war on stepping on the White army is continuous, and Nanming pass is located inland. It is not easy to be lazy for a long time, not to mention so majestic? LAN can assert that there are countless generals who can use troops in Huiyao, but general Tong will be the top five!"

Although wearing half an iron face, it can be seen that Tong Xuanye is still very happy and his eyes narrowed with laughter: "there is no secret, that is, eating and sleeping with them. Whoever can't practice well will practice with him. Whoever has something on his mind will help solve it, and then train according to the theory of art of war."

"Generals and soldiers are all one. It's not appropriate to have similarities and differences. Things in the world are often so simple, and truth is the truth that everyone knows." Lan Yan said, "but many people just can't do it."

While talking, they have come to the garrison house of Nanming pass. Although the garrison house is also ten steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, at least it is not as tense as outside, and LAN Yan seems to relax a lot.

"A banquet has been prepared inside. Please."

LAN Yan nodded and looked at the entourage behind him. As soon as he wanted to say something, Tong Xuanye said, "come in with the entourage. How can Tong treat the entourage badly? If general LAN doesn't mind, the entourage can sit down and have a cup of hot wine. If general LAN does mind, I'll open another table to entertain the entourage."

"Lan certainly doesn't mind."

LAN Yan looked at the follower, and the follower nodded: "then accept the beauty of general Tong."

"Ha ha, please!"

After three rounds of wine, Tong Xuanye waved back from the room guard, went straight in and asked, "general LAN wants to attack the blood army with nanmingguan?"

"Exactly," said LAN Yan "Mr. LAN is patriotic and loves Huiyao. He used to be the director of the statistics department to search against the party and was appreciated by Sheriff Ding and Lv. By chance, he is now in his current position. The two elders are loyal to the royal family and Huiyao and died at the hands of the chaotic party. Mr. LAN is deeply gracious and inherits his will. How can he do against the chaos and stay with the person of hunting the first firewood?"

"Then..."

"To tell you the truth, LAN led the army to come, because there was an insider in Yanjing." Lan Yan put down his glass and said word by word: "the National Salvation Association!"

"The national salvation and Disaster Relief Association sent gold and silver all the way and hired the pro navy to cooperate with the blood army to jointly conquer Nanming pass! They even bribed the insiders. When they officially attack the city, they will make trouble in the pass and open the door so that the blood army commander can drive straight in!"

"Lan didn't dare not believe it, nor did he dare to let the National Salvation Association plot succeed, so he pretended to promise. In fact, he hoped to contact the imperial master, hoping to defeat the National Salvation Association plot and protect the peace in Yanjing!"

Tong Xuanye was silent for a moment and nodded: "Tong also heard about the meeting to save the country and relieve the difficulties. The president of tea occasionally complained to me in his letter that the cabinet is feeding the tiger... How does general LAN plan to deal with the blood army?"

"Three days later, the Allied troops near the sea will feint during the day, and the whole army will not go out until the door should be opened at night. I hope nanmingguan can stop the insiders, stick to the door, and shoot the blood army on the wall. Our pro Navy will take the opportunity to attack from the rear and block the retreat of the blood army. In this way, the blood army can neither enter nor retreat. It can only be blocked before the door is closed, and the crisis of nanmingguan will be solved."

Tong Xuanye nodded: "it's a good proposal. Nanming pass hardly needs to take any risks. All risks are borne by the Linhai Navy... General LAN, you are willing to sacrifice, so what kind of return do you want afterwards?"

"Lan Yan acts for the country and the people. Why should he repay?" Lan Yan paused and said, "only the blood army failed to recover after the defeat, and there is no army stationed in the canglan area, so shanman is afraid to make a comeback. LAN is not talented. He is willing to lead the navy to suppress canglan, help rebuild the new blood army, and make a little contribution to the imperial court's re control of the canglan area."

"Want to control the morning breeze and the blue area at the same time?" Tong Xuanye pondered for a moment. "Anyway, the blue area doesn't listen to the imperial court's orders now. It doesn't matter if you are in power for the time being."

LAN Yan hurriedly said, "how dare LAN meddle in the ruling position? Please appoint a new Cang LAN consul. LAN must give full assistance and never exceed the moment."

"I didn't expect that general Lan was really the same as the rumor. He was a man of loyalty, righteousness, courtesy and wisdom," sighed Tong Xuanye. "Tong heard the rumor that you took revenge for your teacher and filial piety for your father. He thought you were a hidden villain. I didn't expect you to be a man of benevolence and righteousness!"

"The rumor stops at the wise man. After a long time, you can see the people's hearts." Lan Yan said, "this heart is bright. What can I say?"

"Very good, really good." Tong Xuanye suddenly asked, "have you been to Yanjing before? The headmaster of tea will certainly appreciate you."

"Lan Mou was born in a broken settlement. He didn't have the opportunity to go to Yanjing, let alone to the Royal College. In the past, there was a subordinate from the Imperial College. LAN Mou learned a lot from him. LAN Mou was full of longing for the Imperial College and the tea principal." Lan Yan smiled: "I hope to have the opportunity to communicate with the tea principal in the future."

"Unfortunately, you have no chance." Tong Xuanye sighed.

LAN Yan narrowed his eyes slightly: "general Tong, do you mean...?"

Be quite different from you before, as like as two peas.

"Also ask general Tong to invite the guest out. LAN can confront him on the spot."

"That's what I mean." Tong Xuanye clapped his hands: "Mr. Gao, please."

When the side door opened, an old acquaintance came out and stared at LAN Yan with hate eyes.

LAN Yan was stunned and smiled.

"General Tong, don't you believe what this man said? He is the accomplice of killing Ding Yi, the Sheriff of Xingke, my teacher, the main culprit of assassinating LV Zhong, the leader of my father CHENFENG, the insurgent who planned dozens of assassinations, the villain who offered a reward of 100 gold yuan, the party in the daytime and night, and Gao Jin!"
