Chapter 598 Bad intentions

Regarding this battle, Yunzheng has a battle plan.

But Yunzheng, like Yu Shizhong and others, have always cared about Tianqiong.

It’s no wonder they are so whimsical.

The main reason is that Tianqiong Pass is too important to Qiu Chi.

Once they capture Tianqiong Pass, the Beifu Army can march straight in.

They can attack Qiu Chi whenever they want.

If you are in a bad mood, you can drag Qiu Chi out and give him a beating.

Anyway, the war has not officially started yet. Yun Zheng thought over and over again and decided to go to Tianqiong Pass to see if he could find a way to break through Tianqiong Pass.

The actions they are making now will definitely be beneficial to them in seizing Tianqiong Pass.

However, unless Tiexiong Xianguan surrendered, he would still have to rely on attack to capture Tianqiong Pass.

Knowing that Yunzheng wanted to go to Tianqiong Mountain Pass, the generals at Yanhui Mountain Camp objected.

Tianqiong Pass is located in the southwest of Muma Grassland.

It was also the junction of the territories of Qiuchi, Beimatuo and the current Daqian.

Although some members of the Beifu Army went to patrol the area, they never stationed troops there, and the army led by Dugu Ce did not intend to go to that location.

Yunzheng was just going to check out the terrain of Tianqiong Pass, and he was not planning to formally attack Tianqiong Pass. He certainly couldn't bring too many people with him.

When there are few of them, they will naturally be in danger.

Who knows if they might be ambushed by enemy forces nearby?

"Okay, don't try to persuade me, I've made up my mind!"

Yun Zheng stopped the generals who were trying to persuade him, "Although we don't have troops stationed there, General Dugu and his army are only a hundred miles away from there. If there is any danger, they will come quickly to support us."

He must go to Tianqiong Pass to see it.

Although the terrain of Tianqiong Pass is also on the sand table, the sand table is not comprehensive.

Still have to do some on-the-spot investigation before making any calculations.

"If His Highness insists on going, please go and accompany him at the end!"

Yu Shizhong was the first to stand up.

"The general is also willing to accompany you!"

Wang Qi, Deng Bao and others stepped forward one after another.

"Except for Qin Qihu, none of you want to go!"

Yun Zheng said categorically: "I still have tasks for you!"

task?

Listening to Yun Zheng's words, the generals couldn't help but frown slightly.

What task?

Could it be that His Highness had a temporary mission to prevent them from accompanying them?

Yun Zheng did not guess what the generals were thinking and directly ordered: "Your Majesty, your troops are infantry and their marching speed is slow! I order your troops to immediately carry the food, grass and baggage, return to the mountain camp, and march a hundred miles to the west. , set up camp on the spot and launch defense!"

""Deng Bao, I order you to lead your men and horses closer to the Weibian direction, help Zuo Ren's troops escort the grain and grass, and deliver the grain and grass to the Yanhuishan camp as soon as possible! ""

"Yu Shizhong and Lu Xing, you two will lead your troops to stay at Yanhui Mountain Camp and be responsible for checking the conditions of each granary to ensure that the granaries are in good condition. There must be no problems with our grain and grass! In addition, you must keep in touch with General Dugu and the other ministries at all times. , promptly report the status of various ministries..."

Yunzheng quickly issued an order and directly arranged work for all the generals.

Yun Zheng's orders have been issued, and even if the generals want to follow him, they can only accept the order.

After arranging everything, Yunzheng immediately set off with Qin Qihu and Miaoyin.

On this trip, he only brought two hundred personal guards, plus eighteen ghost cavalry.

Tianqiong Pass is almost four hundred miles away from Yanhui Mountain Camp.

In order to speed up, they basically use one person and two horses.

One horse carries people, and another horse carries a small amount of beans and their dry food, which is rotated at any time.

"Brother Xian, you don't really want to attack Tianqiong Pass, do you?"

On the way, Qin Qihu asked worriedly.

Although Qin Qihu is not resourceful, he is not stupid either.

Based on his understanding of Yun Zheng, Yun Zheng attached so much importance to Tian Qiong Pass that he even ignored everyone's dissuasion and took so many people to personally investigate the situation at Tian Qiong Pass. He must have wanted to attack Tian Qiong Pass.

No, it’s not just as simple as the idea of defying the sky!

As long as there is a slight chance, he may change his original plan and directly attack Tianqiong Pass!

"I definitely want to!"

Yunzheng smiled, "There are so many benefits to conquering Tianqiong Pass, you don't want to conquer Tianqiong Pass?"

"I do! Of course I do!" Qin Qihu replied without thinking, but frowned again, "But this Tianqiong Pass is not that easy to attack! If the attack fails, we are afraid we will suffer heavy losses!"

Anyone who knows a little bit about leadership can see the benefits of taking Tianqiong Pass.

Just like everyone knows the benefits of capturing Beilu Pass.

If he was 100% sure of capturing Tianqiong Pass, Qin Qihu would be willing to take the lead.

But the problem is, even if Yunzheng thinks of a way to break through Tianqiong Pass, he may not be able to break it!

They have moves, and the enemy can also use them to dismantle them!

If he was not more than 80% sure of conquering Tianqiong Pass, he would not recommend Yunzheng to attack Tianqiong Pass.

You can see the benefits of conquering Tianqiong Pass, but you can also see the disadvantages of not being able to conquer Tianqiong Pass!

If there was only such an offensive line, he would definitely say nothing and just listen to Yunzheng's orders.

But they have other attack routes now, so there is no need to fight against Tianqiongguan!

"Don't worry! I haven't gotten to the point where victory has gone to my head yet!"

Yun Zheng pursed his lips and smiled, "I don't want to lose all my wealth."

When Qin Qihu heard this, he immediately laughed dryly and said no more.

Yes.

He was just afraid that after Yunzheng defeated Beihuan, he would be dazzled by the victory and develop a mentality of underestimating the enemy.

Now that Yun Zheng understood what he was thinking, he didn't need to persuade him anymore.

Anyway, as long as Yun Zheng's mind stays clear.

Speechless all the way.

By the third day, they were very close to Tianqiong Pass.

At this time, Yunzheng released the Eighteen Ghost Riders and ordered them to investigate the surrounding situation.

Later in the evening, the three people who went to the northwest to investigate came back.

"Your Highness, forty miles away in the northwest, there is a group of people approaching the Tianqiong Pass under the banner of the messenger. It should be Ashina and his party!"

Ashina and the others?

Yun Zheng was slightly surprised.

We can actually meet Ashina and his group near here?

What a coincidence!

Calculating the time, if Ashina and the others ran faster, they would almost be here.

Yunzheng pondered for a moment and immediately ordered: "Confirm their identities. If they are Ashina and his party, bring them to see the king immediately!"

"Yes!"

The three of them took the order, turned their horses and left.

Watching the three people go away, Miaoyin couldn't help but ask Yunzheng: "Are you planning another bad idea?"

"What?"

Yun Zheng was dissatisfied, "What bad idea can I have?"

"That's weird!"

Miaoyin curled her lips and joked: "I just saw you smiling sinisterly!"

"Have it?"

Yun Zheng was surprised.

"Really! I saw it too!"

Qin Qihu said in a serious tone: "The smile you just had made me uneasy at first glance..."

"..."
