Outside Mengjin Pass, General Dou Bing, the chariot and cavalry general Liu Fengbao, and General Liu Fengbao of the Suzhou Xiang Army, fought for hundreds of rounds amid the cheers of the soldiers on both sides without deciding the outcome. The long-term battle made Dou Bing and Liu Fengbao breathlessly.

At this time, General Xiao Su, the Cavalry General Xiao Su and Zhang Mingqi, the governor of Suzhou, sent people to ring the gong almost at the same time, causing the generals in front of the two armies to retreat. Xiao Su and Zhang Mingqi were afraid that their generals would lose their losses in this battle.

When Liu Fengbao returned to Zhang Mingqi, he first glanced at a burly man behind Zhang Mingqi. This burly man was Zhang Shaohua, the powerful general who was transferred from Zhao Lianjin under his command.

Liu Fengbao has been hoping to compete with Zhang Shaohua these days, but Zhang Mingqi is worried that Zhang Shaohua will be too stubborn. When Liu Fengbao fights, he will be crazy. If Liu Fengbao and Zhang Shaohua are both injured, Zhang Mingqi has no place to cry. So under Zhang Mingqi's stop, Liu Fengbao and Zhang Shaohua have not competed so far.

Liu Fengbao looked at Zhang Shaohua with a dull face and couldn't help feeling a little incredible. He personally learned about the martial arts of the General of the Cavalry and Cavalry, Dou Bing, who was almost comparable to his own. However, outside Huaian City, the General of the Cavalry and Cavalry, Dou Bing, was cut and injured by Zhang Shaohua in less than twenty rounds. In this way, it seems that his title of the No. 1 General of the Suzhou Prefecture Governor General was worthy of his title to Zhang Shaohua, a reckless man.

Liu Fengbao sighed and said to Zhang Mingqi: "Lord, Dou Bing is indeed very powerful. It is difficult to decide the outcome without hundreds of rounds between me and him!"

Zhang Mingqi smiled and said, "Dou Bing is known as the number one general of the Jin Dynasty. Feng Bao can fight Dou Bing for hundreds of rounds today and is worthy of being famous all over the world!"

After hearing what Zhang Mingqi said, Liu Fengbao felt a little depressed and immediately turned from Yin to Qing, and then suggested to Zhang Mingqi: "Lord, why not let me lead the cavalry to fight against the cavalry that had left the imperial court? Try to keep these cavalry that had left the imperial court!"

Zhang Mingqi shook his head and said, "You killed three opponents in a row today and fought with Dou Bing for hundreds of rounds. It is not advisable to lead the cavalry to charge forward. Let's take a break first!"

Then Zhang Mingqi turned his head and said to Peng Yong, the commander of the Eighth Guard of Suzhou Xiangjun, and said: "Peng Yong, next you will lead a brigade of cavalry from the Eighth Guard and rush forward to the cavalry that had left the imperial court, so that the imperial army of Mengjin Pass can appreciate the power of our Suzhou Iron Cavalry!"

The eighth guard of the Suzhou Xiang Army had only one brigade of cavalry, and the brigade had about 25,000 people, but 5,000 of them were auxiliary soldiers responsible for raising horses and escorting food and grass, and the real cavalry was only 20,000.

The number of cavalry in the Suzhou Xiang Army was not large. Among the twenty-five guards of the Suzhou Xiang Army, the total cavalry was only more than 100,000. There were only the first guard, the second guard, the eighth guard and the ninth guard had a whole brigade of cavalry. Among them, the first guard and the second guard directly belonged to Zhang Mingqi, the commander of the Suzhou Xiang Army, and the eighth guard and the ninth guard belonged to Zhao Lianjin, the general led by Zhang Mingqi. However, this time the eighth guard and the ninth guard were taken outside Mengjin Pass by Zhang Mingqi.

Peng Yong immediately took the order and said, "Don't worry, Lord Zhou Mu, our eighth guard's cavalry will definitely defeat the imperial cavalry that was out of the pass!"

After returning to General Xiao Su, the cavalry general Dou Bing returned to the side of General Xiao Su, he breathed a long breath and said, "General Xiao, it's better not to fight with the Suzhou Xiang Army next time. The Suzhou Xiang Army is not only Liu Fengbao, but also a powerful general named Zhang Shaohua in Huai'an City. It took less than twenty rounds to cut me. Just now, in front of the two armies, I vaguely saw the powerful general named Zhang Shaohua in front of the other side's formation!"

When General Xiao Su heard this, he couldn't help but frown and said, "I didn't expect that there were so many powerful generals in the Suzhou Xiang Army and those who could defeat General Dou. It seems that it is indeed not appropriate to fight with the Suzhou Xiang Army again. If you continue to fight, it is likely that not only will it not increase morale, but it will reduce the morale of our soldiers in Mengjin Pass."

At this time, General Xiao Su, the Cavalry, suddenly saw the abnormal movement of the Suzhou Xiang Army, and a group of enemy cavalry slowly advanced towards Mengjin Pass.

Xiao Su snorted coldly, then waved his hand and personally led the generals of the chariot and cavalry, Dou Bing and other imperial guards, as well as 10,000 imperial guards and 10,000 family cavalry, and met the cavalry of the Suzhou Xiang Army...

"Ahem, I'm old, it's no longer the same as before. Ahem, if it weren't for General Dou today, I would probably have been unable to return to Mengjin Pass." In the city tower on the wall of Mengjin Pass, General Xiao Su, the cavalry, said gratefully to General Dou Bing, the chariot and cavalry, while coughing.

It was already the afternoon of September 1st. During the morning cavalry duel, the imperial army and the Suzhou Xiang army each invested 20,000 cavalry, and finally fought evenly. Only 13,000 imperial cavalry and 10,000 cavalrymen on the court retreated to Mengjin Pass, and the 20,000 cavalrymen of the eighth guard of the Suzhou Xiang army did not gain any advantage, and almost 7,000 were lost in the cavalry battle.

While personally leading the charge of the imperial cavalry, Xiao Su encountered Peng Yong, the commander of the eighth guard of the Suzhou Xiang Army, and was shocked by Peng Yong's hammer. If it weren't for Xiao Su's personal guards, they would have blocked Peng Yong without hesitation. In addition, the general Dou Bing of the chariot and cavalry were near Xiao Su. Seeing that Xiao Su was in danger, Dou Bing rushed to Xiao Su and helped Xiao Su block Peng Yong. If Xiao Su might not have killed Xiao Yong's pair of hammers.

General Dou Bing of the Cavalry General Dou Bing smiled bitterly and said, "There are too many powerful generals in the Suzhou Xiang Army. Although the enemy general who uses an iron hammer may be slightly inferior to me in martial arts, he is definitely a person who can be on the list of peerless generals in the world's hero list. In this way, as we know only, there are three generals in the Suzhou Xiang Army, who can be called peerless generals. But here in Mengjin Pass, I am the only one who can compete with the three Suzhou Xiang Army."

General Xiao Su, the cavalry, coughed again and said, "Wudang Mountain was invited by our thirteenth family, and sent two elders, two guardians, three personal disciples, twelve inner disciples and sixty outer disciples to the capital to help the battle. Since there are so many peerless generals in the Suzhou Xiang Army, it seems that we can only invite many masters from Wudang Mountain to Mengjin Pass to take charge!"

The elders and guardians of Wudang Mountain are both qualified to be on the list of peerless generals in the World Heroes. The disciples of the personal disciples and inner disciples are both qualified to be on the list of top generals in the World Heroes. The outer disciples also have the strength of the list of first-class generals in the World Heroes, the second-rate generals and the third-rate generals in the World Heroes.

When Dou Bing heard Xiao Su mention the masters sent to the capital in Wudang Mountain this time, he nodded and said, "This time, two elders and two guardians came to Wudang Mountain. As long as two people could come to Mengjin Pass, we would be under much less pressure when facing the peerless generals of the Suzhou Xiang Army."

While Xiao Su and Dou Bing were talking, an imperial guard general hurried into the city tower, "General Xiao, General Dou, and Suzhou Xiangjun are calling out outside the city again!"

Xiao Su waved his hand and said, "Don't pay attention to it, let the soldiers guarding the city be prepared and wait for the Suzhou Xiangjun to attack the city!"

Mengjin Pass said it was a pass, but in fact it was equivalent to a city built between the mountains and ridges. The entire Mengjin Pass city is about 6,000 meters in circumference, the city wall is twelve meters high and seven meters thick, and there are two city gates north and south. At this time, the Suzhou Xiangjun was outside the southern gate of Mengjin Pass City. After passing the northern gate of Mengjin Pass City, it is the suburbs of Beijing.

Seeing that the imperial army at Mengjin Pass no longer left the city to fight, Zhang Mingqi immediately dispatched a brigade of infantry to launch a fierce attack on the Mengjin Pass wall, which was more than a thousand meters long.

However, the terrain of Mengjin Pass was dangerous, with a high city and wide army. The Suzhou Xiang Army attacked Mengjin Pass for three consecutive days starting from the afternoon of September 1st. Apart from losing more than 60,000 people, it did not pose too much threat to Mengjin Pass.

You should know that in Mengjin Pass, there are 100,000 imperial guards and 50,000 servants from various families stationed in Mengjin Pass. Outside the northern gate of Mengjin Pass, there are 150,000 imperial guards, 150,000 servants from various families, and 100,000 troops from six groups to suppress the rebels. You can provide support to Mengjin Pass at any time. If necessary, the imperial troops stationed in the capital can also quickly send reinforcements to Mengjin Pass.

On the evening of September 3, in the Suzhou Xiangjun camp outside Mengjin Pass, Zhang Mingqi, the governor of Suzhou, frowned and said to several strategists and generals under his command: "If you continue to attack like this, the losses will be too great. Moreover, Mengjin Pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and the imperial guards are sufficient. If we continue to attack like this, we will only increase casualties, but it is difficult to pose a real threat to Mengjin Pass."

Qian Yike, a counselor under Zhang Mingqi, immediately said: "Lord, it's better to try digging tunnels to attack the city. However, digging tunnels can only be based on luck. Once the tunnels are discovered by the imperial guards in Mengjin Pass, we will be in vain."

Zhang Mingqi sighed and said, "You can try digging the tunnel. Do you have any other ideas?"

Several other strategists looked at each other and smiled bitterly. Facing Mengjinguan, who was well-trained and had enough food, they had not come up with any good solutions for the time being.

At this time, Zhou Jiling, the general led by Zhang Mingqi, spoke, "Lord, although there is a Canglong Ba Pass around the capital that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, there is no way out in the mountains and ridges between the Canglong Ba Pass. It is just that the mountains are high and the valleys are deep, and it is extremely difficult. If we can send a force to dig a mountain and open a road, build a pile and bridge, and enter the suburbs of Beijing from the mountains and ridges, we can attack the imperial army without any precautions and surprise!"

Zhang Mingqi shook his head and said, "The mountains and ridges between Canglong Eight Passes are extremely steep, and the large team of people cannot climb over. Otherwise, a problem of food and grass will cause the team to collapse. Only a few soldiers will be sent. Even if they can cross the mountains and ridges between Canglong Eight Passes, they will not pose any threat to the capital."

Zhou Jiling continued, "Lord, this is how I think about it. We can send an elite force to climb over from the mountains and ridges, then dress up as the imperial army, sneak into a certain pass, take the opportunity to seize the gate of the pass, and welcome the troops of our Suzhou Xiangjun outside the pass into the city. Of course, don't consider it here in Mengjin Pass. The imperial army has gathered too many troops in Mengjin Pass, and it is too difficult to capture the gate."

After hearing what Zhou Jiling said, Zhang Mingqi touched his chin. After thinking for a while, he turned his head and asked Tang Yan, the adviser whom he trusted the most, and said, "What does Mr. Tang think of General Jiling's plan?"

The strategist Tang Yan pondered for a moment and said, "Lord, my subordinates think that you can try it, just like digging a tunnel to attack the city. If it succeeds, we will get a thousand times the reward. Even if it fails, the loss will be minimal. It is better than if we keep attacking Mengjin Pass like this!"

The words of the strategist Tang Yan made Zhang Mingqi decide to say: "Okay! Then organize an elite force and try it according to General Jiling's plan."

At the same time, in the hall of a mansion in Mengjin Pass, General Xiao Su, the cavalry, picked up a glass of wine and said to the second elder of Wudang Mountain, Lei Jin and the guardian Yang Yu with a smile: "Today's battle is thanks to the help of many masters from Wudang Mountain. Suzhou Xiangjun's siege today, at least six, seven brave generals and hundreds of brave soldiers died in the hands of Elder Lei, Yang Guardian and Wudang Mountain disciples. This general is here to honor Elder Lei and Yang Guardian Yang Guardian to express his gratitude!"

This time, Wudang Mountain sent two elders and two guardians to Canglong City, a total of four masters with the strength of peerless military generals. Dou Yan, the Grand Marshal of the Ministry of War, learned that several fierce generals in the Suzhou Xiangjun outside Mengjin Pass had the strength to be on the list of peerless military generals in the world's hero list. He immediately asked the second elder of Wudang Mountain Lei Jin and the guardian Yang Yu to lead two personal disciples, six inner disciples and thirty outer disciples to Mengjin Pass to help.

Lei Jin, the second elder of Wudang Mountain, picked up the wine glass and said with a smile: "General Xiao is so polite. This time, we all from Wudang Mountain came to the capital as an appointment from the thirteenth family in order to kill these rioters from the Xiang army of Suzhou and to give peace to the people of the Great Jin!"

Yang Yu, the guardian of Wudang Mountain, also gathered a wine glass and said, "Elder Lei is right. General Xiao is really too polite. Unfortunately, on the city wall today, I did not meet the peerless generals of General Xiao and General Dou mentioned that the peerless generals in the Suzhou Xiang Army. If they can kill a peerless general of the Suzhou Xiang Army, they will not be in vain the wine and dish prepared by General Xiao!"

Dou Bing, the general of the chariot and cavalry next to him, said: "As long as the Suzhou Xiangjun does not withdraw from Mengjin Pass, Yang Guardian will have the chance to fight against the peerless generals of the Suzhou Xiangjun. However, Yang Guardian must be careful of a man named Zhang Shaohua. His weapon is a Yanyue Sword, which has a great manpower. I once fought with him for less than twenty rounds outside Huai'an City, and was injured by him."
