Chapter 210 Mountain and Sea Murder
Li Fei rested in Weizhou for three days, and everyone was fully prepared before continuing to go north. Because after passing Weizhou and going north was An Lushan's territory, he had to use the most energy to deal with An Lushan's possible plot.
On the 14th day after leaving Chang'an City, Li Fei and his party arrived outside Youzhou City.
However, Li Fei had no intention of entering Youzhou and An Lushan to "remind the past". He was not familiar with An Lushan, and he did not want to give An Lushan the opportunity and time to plot against him.
It is certain that An Lushan wishes he would die. If he has the chance to plot, An Lushan will never let him go.
To escape An Lushan's calculations, or to minimize the number of times An Lushan calculates, the most important thing is not to be as expected by An Lushan. For example, An Lushan calculated that he passed by Youzhou City, whether it was resting or out of etiquette, he should have entered Youzhou City.
If Li Fei really enters Youzhou City, wouldn’t it be just as expected by An Lushan, and would give An Lushan a chance to calmly plot?
Therefore, no "righteous brother" or any etiquette, and even life is more important!
Not only did Li Fei not enter Youzhou City, he instead kept moving away Youzhou City as fast as possible and continued to rush to Andong.
I have to say that Li Fei's unexpected performance did disrupt An Lushan's original plan.
Upon hearing the news, An Lushan stood up and gritted his teeth with a gloomy face, "Good boy, he's alert, but do you think you can run away like this!"
"Have the news been spread?" After a while, An Lushan asked a general who had just returned.
"Return to the prince, the news has been spread. The Khitans knew that Li Fei was going to Andong and were interested in taking his head to sacrifice the flag! A Khitan cavalry of nearly 500 people had already 'breaking' across our defense line." The general replied with a sinister look on his face.
"Okay! Li Fei, I want you to slap your body!" An Lushan sneered with murderous intent.
He had already found out that Li Fei and his party had less than 500 people, of which there were only 300 guards, and they were all who had never been on the battlefield. Compared with the Khitan cavalry that had fought with him for many years, it was incomparable. Not to mention nearly 500 Khitan cavalry, even 100 Khitan cavalry, An Lushan had reason to think that the Khitan cavalry had a higher chance of winning.
There is no doubt that An Lushan deliberately let the Khitan cavalry go beyond the defense line. At this time, he had just obtained the position of Hedong Jiedu, and had not really integrated Hedong Road, and the Khitan threatened his rear and could not have killed Li Fei clearly before conquering the Khitan.
But he can use a knife to kill people! He can borrow a knife from a Khitan!
After his many years of "guidance", the Khitans hated the Tang Dynasty. Now the Khitans united the servants and the Uluo tribes, gathered more than 100,000 cavalry to fight him. He deliberately revealed the news that Li Fei was going to Andong to the Khitans, and boasted to Li Fei to conceal the news that Li Fei was demoted from Duke to County Duke. Li Fei was not only the adopted son of Yang Guifei today, but was deeply favored by Emperor Tang and Yang Guifei, and he was ranked high as Duke in the position of Duke in the country under twenty years old, etc. In addition, Li Fei and the royal family had the same surname, both of Li Fei's surname, and Li Fei, which seemed to have a greater influence than the real prince, completely aroused the Khitan, Pugu and Uluo tribes used Li Fei's head to sacrifice flags to increase the morale of the three tribes and consolidate the thoughts of the three tribes.
The Khitan general who led these nearly 500 Khitan cavalry was named Qu Sulu.
This man is very burly and full of murderous aura. He is obviously a warrior. He is riding a war horse with nearly five hundred Khitan cavalry.
"The Tang people are hateful. This time I captured the Li Fei's sacrifice flag. Three troops will be the alliance with blood. They will definitely defeat the Tang Dynasty!" Qu Suqian's purpose was very clear. He had mastered the route Li Fei was walking in advance. He was confident that as long as he caught up, with nearly 500 cavalry, there would be no difficulty in capturing and killing Li Fei.
"Backing on the mountains and seas, if a majestic pass is built here, it can be the best pass in the world!" Shanhaiguan, the most famous majestic pass in the world during the Ming Dynasty hundreds of years later, was just a small village with only a dozen families.
"Husband, isn't the world's number one pass that guards Guanzhong? Is there any majestic pass that is more magnificent than Tongguan?" Lin Shiyue asked while standing beside Li Fei.
"The so-called world's most powerful pass is just a relative. As long as the capital of the Tang Dynasty is still in Chang'an, Tongguan will always be the world's most powerful pass, but it is not bad. It is stretched out in the west and the sea is the east. If a Shanhaiguan is built here, there will be a situation like Tongguan where a man is as strong as a pass, which can protect Youzhou from threats from the northeast." Li Fei shook his head and did not explain much. After all, it is the Tang Dynasty now, not the Ming Dynasty hundreds of years later. Youzhou is not the core of the dynasty, it is not that important, and there is no powerful force in the northeast that threatens the Tang Dynasty.
"After passing this must-pass corridor, walk a little further, and you will be in the scope of the Anton Protectorate." Only when you arrive at the Anton Protectorate, Li Fei's tense heart could he calm down.
Ten miles southwest of Li Fei, Wu Sheng personally led a team of ten-person guards to watch and warn a breakthrough.
In order to ensure safety, Li Fei was like a war, and asked Wu Sheng, Zhang said that Zeng Aniu each led a team of guards to investigate and warn outside like scouts.
Standing on the grounds of earth, and through the telescope, Wu Sheng could see a long distance clearly.
"The telescope invented by the adults is really useful. If you can see further on the grassland, it will be a great benefit for the march and conquest!" Wu Sheng exclaimed while scanning the distance.
Suddenly, a stream of dust rose and a large number of cavalry rushed out soon.
"It's the Khitan cavalry!" Wu Sheng was shocked. He had fought against the Xi tribe and the Khitans on the Pingzhou front eight years ago. He knew he was a Khitan when he looked at his outfit.
"Hurry, go back and notify sir!" Time is tight, so Wu Sheng quickly turned his head.
"What! The Khitan cavalry can actually appear here!" Li Fei was shocked when he heard the news. This was the jurisdiction of the Pinglu Jiedushi, and it was at least nearly a hundred miles away from the Khitan forces. Why did the Khitan cavalry suddenly penetrate here? It was absolutely impossible to conquer the city and territories, so it was a coincidence.
"Sir, could this be An Lushan's conspiracy?" Zhang Shuo said from the side.
"No matter whether it is, you can't continue to stay here, set off immediately and rush to Andong at full speed." Li Fei looked gloomy. Only when he arrived at Andong would he be safer.
Immediately, Li Fei and others moved forward as fast as possible.
Although there are all horses or carriages, the speed of the carriage is not as fast as that of the horses. If the purpose of the Khitan cavalry is him, it will only be a matter of time before they are caught up.
As the Khitan cavalry chased each other, Li Fei could soon see the dust rising from the pursuit of the Khitan cavalry through the telescope.
After walking for another period, the Khitan cavalry still followed closely. Their purpose seemed to be very clear. Ninety percent came for him, otherwise it would not be that coincidence, Li Fei's face immediately became increasingly ugly.
