Three Kingdoms Summoning: Peak Resurgence

Chapter 125: Burning Yanmen Pass, Japan's Struggle

Although Yue Fei completed the breakthrough and his martial arts value has greatly improved, his current condition has not yet returned to its peak.

Although there won't be any problems in the short term, if he continues to fight like this for a long time, it will be a big challenge to his body.

Di Qing discovered this, so he did not engage in a full-on attack on Yue Fei. Instead, he responded calmly and continuously accumulated his sword power. When it reached a certain point, he suddenly released it.

Under Di Qing's fierce attack, Yue Fei, whose energy and physical strength were greatly reduced, had no way to resist and was immediately knocked away by the weapon in his hand.

Perhaps it was because heroes sympathized with each other, although Di Qing could defeat Yue Fei, he did not let him lose too badly. However, it was precisely because of his act of sympathy that he won the favor of the generals of the Yanmen Army.

What happens next is very simple.

Although the Yanmen Army only dispatched four people, these four were the strongest. If even they were defeated, there was basically no need for the remaining people to take action.

Therefore, even though Qin Hao was very reluctant, he had to grit his teeth and agree.

In this way, Di Qing became the main general of the Bingzhou coalition forces and was aware of the plan. At the same time, he was even more interested in Wang Meng, who offered this strategy.

…………

At this time, it was already dark. After Qin Hao arranged for Di Qing and the others to rest, he began to gather his men to discuss what to do next.

Wang Yu, who had been listening from the beginning to the end, did not choose to continue listening because the system prompt sound had stopped.

It can be seen that the results of this battle were very good, and Di Qing and his men should have completed it successfully.

Wang Yu, who was familiar with the original novel, naturally knew the following plot, so even if Qin Ritian had selfish motives and did not cooperate with Di Qing and others, Wang Yu was not worried.

Because when Qin Wen and his team were building Yanmen Pass, they used coal stone to lay the foundation. This stuff is not easy to burn under normal circumstances, but once it is ignited, the fire is difficult to extinguish until it is completely reduced to ashes.

Although in the original novel, Ri Tian did this just as a precaution. If Yanmen Pass could not be defended one day, he would just set fire to the pass to delay the Huns' southward advance and give Guangwu time to prepare.

However, due to Wang Yu's arrival, his move was completely an aid to Di Qing!
Because of his trust in Di Qing, Wang Yu didn't have to worry about anything. In the morning, the system would report the latest battle situation at Yanmen Pass.

Therefore, even though Yanmen Pass is now in the middle of a furnace, Wang Yu is still sleeping soundly. After all, these few days have consumed a lot of his brain cells.

However, what Wang Yu didn’t know was that while he was sleeping soundly, a great battle was taking place at Yanmen Pass.

…………

Just as Wang Yu expected, since Di Qing became the main general in this battle, Qin Ritian felt resentful and did not immediately tell him that the foundation of Yanmen Pass was built with coal stone.

He wanted to see what Di Qing could do when he fell into the hands of the Huns at Yanmen Pass.

It would be best if he suffered heavy casualties because of this matter, so that he could have a chance to criticize him. However, Qin Hao's idea was opposed by Wang Meng, because this idea was too presumptuous. If he did this, his reputation would be ruined.

In any case, in the eyes of the world, Yanmen Pass was lost at the hands of the Yanmen Army. If Di Qing could not defeat the Huns, he could completely put the blame on Qin Hao.

After all, the current commander of Yanmen County is General Qin Hao. Once something happens at Yanmen Pass, the imperial court will naturally find trouble with him. As for whether Yanmen Pass was lost intentionally, it will no longer be important at that time.

What the imperial court values ​​is often the results rather than the process. When a scapegoat is needed to take the blame, Qin Hao, the actual person in charge of Yanmen Pass, cannot escape responsibility.

…………

Just like that, under Wang Meng's persuasion, Qin Hao reluctantly agreed and told Di Qing that the foundation of Yanmen Pass was made of coal stone, and then explained to him the function of coal stone.

Di Qing was also shocked after hearing this, but he was not surprised by the function of coal stone, because he had known it for a long time. What surprised him was that Wang Yu knew this information, and it was exactly the same as what Qin Hao said.

"My lord, my lord, it seems that all this is in your plan." Di Qing said with great admiration in his heart.

With the assistance of Qin Hao's Yanmen Army, Di Qing's work efficiency was greatly improved. In just a few hours, he demonstrated his superb military qualities.

This made Qin Hao very jealous.

When they arrived outside Yanmen Pass, the method Di Qing adopted was basically the same as the one Qin Hao used in the original novel. After all, Yue Fei performed so well that the Huns thought that the Yanmen Army's strength had been almost depleted.

Therefore, even if the Han army outside the Shanhai Pass shouted very loudly, even if Huochuquan's ancestors were mentioned, this guy remained unmoved.

In his opinion, going out now would mean shedding blood and sacrificing lives in vain. If they wanted to curse, let them curse. It wouldn't hurt him anyway. After daybreak, the army would gather together and deal with them well!
However, just when Huochequan was not paying attention, Di Qing immediately ordered his men to start a fire. Under the ignition of coal and stone, the entire Yanmen Pass turned into a sea of ​​fire.

After learning that Yu Furuo was leading his troops to help, Di Qing immediately carried out an ambush on the 40,000-strong army led by Yu Furuo according to the original plan. Being surrounded from all sides, there was no chance that Yu Furuo could survive.

Perhaps, this was fate. Even though eight parties surrounded Yu Furuo, including powerful generals such as Di Qing, Yu Furuo still died at the hands of Qin Ritian, allowing him to redeem some credit for himself.

However, due to Qin Hao's current lack of strength, this sword did not kill Yu Furuo, but instead made him say his last words.

"Listen, warriors of the Great Xiongnu. After my death, the Right Wise King Temujin will inherit the throne of the Great Xiongnu. No one shall disobey, otherwise they will be killed!" Yu Furo shouted with all his might, using up his last bit of strength, and then fell off his horse.

"What a pity. If I had known this would happen, I would have shot it to death with a bow and arrow, so as to avoid becoming a tool for others." Di Qing said in annoyance.

Although he was the main general this time, the Yanmen Army, as an auxiliary army in this battle, also made contributions that cannot be ignored. What's more, Qin Hao personally killed the Xiongnu Chanyu Yufuluo.

This contribution alone is not low.

"It seems that I have to take the three central and northern counties as soon as possible." Di Qing thought to himself, and he had the idea of ​​withdrawing and taking the opportunity to lead the army to attack the three central and northern counties.
