I was kicked out of the house, and I was reborn and became the emperor

The tent of the Jurchen commander.

The chief of the center, a tall and majestic man in heavy armor, sat upright, flanked by elite generals of the Jurchen tribe. Everyone was in awe and silent, staring at this leader who exuded a fierce and murderous aura.

He is the Jurchen commander of this battle, Chirag, known as the most indestructible shield beside the Jurchen emperor. He has made immortal contributions in the journey of grassland unification and his reputation in the army is unmatched.

Chirag looked around slowly with deep eyes and said in a deep voice: "At dawn tomorrow, the entire army will advance fifty miles and set up camp. In this battle, anyone who disobeys military orders or escapes will be killed!" As soon as the words fell, it was like a rock falling to the ground, and the air in the tent seemed to freeze.

"Yes, sir!" Dozens of generals withdrew without any objection.

Walking out of the tent, Chirag looked up at the night sky, his eyes piercing through the endless darkness, as if he could directly penetrate to the distant Jiayu Pass and spy on the 200,000 enemy troops there. "You can never imagine in your dreams that I have 250,000 soldiers under my command, haha." A cold smile appeared on his lips, showing his domineering demeanor.

At the same time, another group of tens of thousands of Jurchen cavalry were galloping northward under the cover of night, heading directly for Yunzhou, an important town in the northern border!

In Shangguan's residence, Shangguan Yu sat in front of Shangguan Muzhan's couch.

Mu Zhan returned injured this time. When he heard that Fang Yi not only returned safely but also rescued Xue Jinghan, he felt uneasy and felt that the joining forces of these two people he hated would definitely bring him great trouble.

"Uncle, Zhao Zhixun dares to ignore your authority like this, it's really hateful!"

Shangguan Muzhan gritted his teeth and said.

Shangguan Yu's eyes were dark and cold: "Humph, you just want to take advantage of the opportunity to seize power, do you think I will be fooled?"

"In addition, Fang Yi is in collusion with those people in Qingzhou. We humiliated him last time. I'm afraid he will retaliate in the future. We need to be vigilant." Shangguan Muzhan brought up the old matter again, and his knot was difficult to untie.

Shangguan Yu sneered, "If you hadn't been causing trouble on a daily basis, why would you be in trouble today? When will you ever make people feel less worried?"

Looking at his injured nephew, he couldn't bear to blame him anymore.

"Forget it. He is just a count. We can always find a way to get rid of him. As for the Xue family, we should avoid them if possible to avoid complications. You should rest and recover first, and we can talk about other things later."

Inside Jiayuguan, an emergency military summit was in full swing, and an urgent letter for help from Yunzhou made the atmosphere in the meeting place solemn.

The letter said that a Jurchen cavalry force of about 20,000 to 30,000 people was attacking the city of Yunzhou with thundering force, while inside the city, there were only about 10,000 tired soldiers struggling to hold on, and the situation was precarious.

"King of Zhenbei." Shangguan Yu cast sharp eyes at Wu Minbo who was pacing anxiously on the side, and his words revealed unquestionable determination.

"No one can compare to you in your familiarity with the terrain of Yunzhou. Quickly lead 30,000 elite soldiers to rush to Yunzhou for assistance. Yunzhou is related to the safety of the gateway to the northern border, and we must not lose it!"

"Yes, sir!" Zhan Tianyou took the order and hurriedly disappeared outside the tent, starting to prepare for reinforcements.

Shangguan Yu's gaze then turned to Zhao Zhixun who was sitting calmly beside him.

"General Zhao, you lead the troops from Qingzhou, Northern Xinjiang, and Youzhou, a total of 100,000 people, to Wangque Mountain to set up camp, wait for an opportunity, and force the Jurchens to retreat from Yunzhou."

Zhao Zhixun was puzzled. Shangguan Yu's move was clearly to entrust him with the power of a large army. The deep meaning behind it was intriguing. Even so, he still firmly agreed.

Shangguan Yu looked around at the generals in the room and said in an excited voice: "Everyone, the war is about to begin. I hope you will fight bravely, unite against the enemy, defeat the Jurchens, and enhance the military power of our Great Zhou!"

"We will follow you until death!" The generals stood up and their oath resounded through the sky.

At the same time, in Wu Minbo's military camp, Fang Yi looked confused and asked puzzledly:

"Why don't you let me lead the Chiyu Battalion to rescue Yunzhou? My battalion has made many achievements recently and is now full of vigor."

Zhan Tianyou looked solemn.

"How could I not know what you are thinking? The Chiyu Camp has been assisting the nobles in fighting for days in the Wangque Plains. Now is the time for them to rest and recuperate.

The enemies in Yunzhou only number tens of thousands, and the people I bring are enough.

Jiayuguan is the place of the decisive battle. Your Chiyu Camp will be of great use in the future. Wait here and gather your strength."

Although Fang Yi was unwilling, he also knew that the Chiyu Camp did need to rest. However, he always felt that there was a conspiracy behind the Jurchens' actions this time, and he couldn't let it go.

Seeing Zhan Tianyou's firm attitude, he had no choice but to give up.

The shortcut from Jiayuguan to Yunzhou is to cross the winding Wangque Mountains. Then, traveling west for a day, you will pass through a deep canyon that winds for dozens of miles. It looks like a giant python's open mouth and is extremely dangerous.

After crossing this valley, you can reach the city of Yunzhou in another day's walk.

At this time in Yunzhou, the defenders were fighting a bloody battle, and the Jurchen soldiers were climbing the walls and attacking the city like ants, fearless of death.

On the top of the city wall, all available soldiers were in place. Wooden beams, stone cannons, kerosene arrows rained down like raindrops, and they were determined to defend the city to the death.

Suddenly, a golden horn sounded in the Jurchen army's formation, and the offensive came to an abrupt halt, retreating like a tide, leaving the Yunzhou defenders full of suspicion.

"Why are you retreating for no reason? Are you trying to lure the enemy or are reinforcements coming?"

A general muttered to himself, hesitant and afraid to act rashly.

On the other side, Zhan Tianyou was riding his horse through the canyon. There were towering cliffs on both sides and the situation was dangerous. The army was moving forward in a winding manner and the queue was long.

Zhan Tianyou suddenly felt an ominous premonition in his heart.

Waving his hand to order the army to stop, Di Qing rode up to his side and asked, "My Lord, why are you stopping? There is only one day left, why don't you continue to move forward?"

Zhan Tianyou looked around the canyon, feeling more and more uneasy: "There are mysteries hidden here, send scouts to investigate quickly to prevent an ambush."

Di Qing took the order and was about to leave when suddenly, a sharp horn pierced the sky and echoed between the canyons like the scythe of the god of death. Closely behind it, arrows rained down from the top of the mountain, and the Zhou army instantly fell into chaos.

"Fight!"

Zhan Tianyou's eyes were about to burst and he shouted at the top of his lungs. As expected, the Jurchen army was ambushing here.

The Jurchen cavalry on both wings, numbering about 70,000 to 80,000, surged out from both ends of the canyon, and the mountains and plains were filled with enemy figures.

The Northern Frontier Army had been marching for days and was exhausted. In addition, they were caught off guard and suffered heavy casualties in an instant. The front line collapsed and it was difficult to organize an effective defense.

Zhan Tianyou fought bloody battles, with his personal soldiers following him like a shadow. Facing this hellish scene, he roared, "Charge! Everyone charge, break through the shackles of this valley first!" In an instant, the deafening sound of killing echoed in the valley.

On the hillside not far away, a Jurchen general's flag fluttered in the spring breeze, as if foreshadowing the tragic fate of the Northern Frontier Army.

Several Jurchen generals stood under their flags, gazing at the battlefield in the distance. The leader was Mu Yunsheng's former deputy general Ali Sangge, with a look of regret on his face.
