    For Huang Mingyuan, Sima Yong and others are just an interlude.

    On July 11, the Sui Army's forward troops arrived at Lujin Mountain.

    Lujin Mountain is a mountain range running from northeast to southwest. Not far to the north is the Changgen River. It is steep in the south and gentle in the north, and the terrain is relatively rugged.  Bujia Khan stationed 10,000 elite troops here, commanded by his general Bayer, firmly blocking the Sui army's northward advance.

    The terrain on the east side of Lujin Mountain is flat, so you can directly cross the river and go north.  But the army could not leave this nail behind, so they had to pull it out.

    "Although Lujin Mountain is dangerous, it is not a must-defend place for the Turks, and the Turks are not good at defending. As long as our army attacks fiercely, Bayer will not be able to hold on and will inevitably retreat."

    Based on the judgment that the two sides will fight at Muzhuling, Huang Mingyuan is not worried that the Turks will fight him to the death here.  In the end, Dibujia Khan's insistence on Lujin Mountain was more to delay the Sui army's attack and consume the Sui army's morale.

    As expected by Huang Mingyuan, Bujia Khan ordered Bayer to immediately lead his troops to retreat if anything happened to Lujin Mountain, and cross the river to the north to join the main force.

    Huang Mingyuan also handed over the first and second armies of the Fengzhou Infantry Army to Zheng Yanqing. His fourth horse infantry army and the cavalry of the Qimin Department commanded by 5,000 Golons totaled more than 20,000 people to attack Lujin Mountain.  The remaining ministries camped thirty miles south of Lujin Mountain and were on standby.

    After Zheng Yanqing received the order, his vanguard went straight to Lujin Mountain.

    Zheng Yanqing looked at the Turks' main position from the foot of Lujin Mountain. This place is indeed a dangerous place.  Lujin Mountain has continuous ups and downs from west to east. The southern foot is extremely steep, with many ravines and dense vegetation. It is indeed the barrier of Yazhang and the key point of Mobei.

    If the Sui army holds on here, ten thousand people can be equivalent to one hundred thousand troops.

    Bujia Khan chose to abandon this place mainly because the entire Lujin Mountain was not conducive to cavalry operations at all. Its steep mountain road made it impossible for the Turkic cavalry army to rely on the mountain to launch attacks downwards.  Such a dangerous place is undoubtedly a useless place for the Turks, so Bujia Khan stopped fighting here.

    But even so, Bujia Khan's 10,000-strong army is blocking this place, which is a natural chasm for the Sui army.

    Looking at the towering Lujin Mountain in the distance, Zheng Yanqing, who was stamping his feet at the foot of the mountain, had to admit: "This battle is not easy to fight!"

    There is no clear path up the mountain on the entire front of Lujin Mountain. If the Sui army wanted to attack Lujin Mountain, they would have to dismount and fight on foot.  The highest point of Lujin Mountain is several hundred meters above sea level, and the overall height is two to three hundred meters.  The mountain is steep and inconvenient to climb, and the Turks have placed a large number of rolling logs and rocks here. It is almost impossible for the Sui army to make a strong frontal breakthrough.

    This kind of battle requires lives to a large extent.

    "At the end of the day, I would like to be the vanguard and capture Lujin Mountain."

    Zheng Yanqing was not sure whether the attack would go smoothly, so he decided to send infantry to test the strength of the Turks first.

    Zheng Yanqing rejected Huang Mingliao's request to fight, and instead ordered Chen Yi to lead his first army to attack the top of the mountain from the southwest of Lujin Mountain.

    In the southwest of Lujin Mountain, there is a large section of terrain with steep cliffs, which is a defensive blind spot on the mountain.  The Sui army could attack diagonally upward from here, thus reducing the distance of the frontal attack by as much as 100 meters.

    Huang Mingyuan ordered Cai Zhiyun to attack from the right, and Qimin's Colon to attack from the front.  The purpose of both units was to divert the attention of the Turks and cover the mountaineering troops led by Chen Yi on the left.

    Although Colon was reluctant to serve as the main attacker, he did not dare to disobey orders.

    The drums of the Chinese army are beating and the flags are flying.  Colon and Cai Zhiyun immediately led their troops to attack from the bottom of the mountain.  The mountain is two to three hundred meters high, and the attack is from above, so the powerful crossbow troops of the Sui army have no way to cover the attacking troops.

    Of course, the Turks did not have many defensive means, and they could only keep throwing logs and stones.

    Cai Zhiyun held a knife in one hand and a round shield in the other, and the soldiers with half-bowed belts kept rushing forward quickly. However, the Turks on the mountain threw wood and stones wildly, and coupled with the attacks with bows and arrows, they saw heavy losses, but they could not advance much.

    ??Colon¡¯s troops on Cai Zhiyun¡¯s side were even worse. They were all dismounted cavalry. They were not good at attacking fortresses and did not understand infantry formations. Therefore, wood and rocks rolled over, leaving more corpses.

    About a quarter of an hour later, Chen Yi, who was the main attacker, finally circled up from the side and was only a hundred or ten meters away from the Turks' main position.

    "Follow me and kill the prisoners!"

    Chen Yi waved his sword horizontally and personally led the team, braving the blows of arrow feathers and rushing forward.  There were no roads along the way, and the stormtroopers charged forward through all the obstacles. On the way, countless Sui army corpses rolled and fell from the mountains.

     At the risk of heavy casualties, Chen Yi's troops finally reached the Turks' main position, and the two sides engaged in fierce hand-to-hand combat.

    Chen Yi climbed to the pass. Seeing the two Turks in front blocking him, he threw his round shield and hit them on them.  While the two were in a hurry, Chen Yi held a huge stone with one hand and jumped to where the Turks were.  The knife in his hand swung forward and hit a Turkic soldier in the waist, and then struck another man in the neck with the knife.

    Chen Yi was so brave that the soldiers around him formed an assault arrow and drove straight into the Turkic position.  The Turks swarmed forward, trying to squeeze the Sui army down with more enemies and fewer enemies.

    Chen Yi slashed with his sword and beheaded several people in succession, but the Turks did not dare to approach, so Chen Yi stood firm.

    Seeing that Chen Yi's raid was effective, Cai Zhiyun and others were overjoyed and rushed up to prepare to join Chen Yi's troops.

    Seeing the Sui army approaching, Bayer on the top of the mountain immediately ordered his soldiers to block the gap.

    A large number of Turks continued to attack. The difference in numbers between the Sui army and the Turks was too great. For a while, they were immediately in danger.

    "Brothers, we have never seen any kind of battle, and we have never killed any kind of wild dogs. How can we be afraid of these wild dogs today?"

    "The Fengzhou Army is victorious!"

    Whenever we are in a desperate situation, the slogan "The Toyoshu Army will be victorious" immediately becomes inspiring.  Seeing his morale rising sharply, Chen Yi immediately took this opportunity to attack the Turks' main position.

    The two sides fought back and forth, and Cai Zhiyun and the Colombian reinforcements were about to attack.

    At this time, Bayer was shocked. He had planned to defend for at least ten days and a half to dampen the spirit of the Sui army. Who knew that Lujin Mountain would be lost on the first day of fighting between the two sides? How could Bayer accept it?  .

    At this time, Bayel, whose eyes were bloodshot, was like a gambler, with his blood gushing.

    ¡°Shoot me, shoot them!¡±

    The frantic Bayel actually ordered his men to launch missile attacks at the two warring parties, indiscriminately.

    "Qijin, there is also our army."

    Bayer chopped his men to death with one blow and ordered the soldiers to fire arrows immediately.

    There was originally a melee between the two sides, but without long-range strikes, Chen Yi was still able to fight.  Bayel frantically carried out indiscriminate attacks, causing both sides to suffer heavy losses immediately.  The Sui army was also inevitably exposed to the range of the opponent's bows and arrows.

    Chen Yi was fighting hard when he was shot in the arm by an arrow. His own soldiers rushed forward to protect him.

    When Zheng Yanqing saw this scene in the distance, he knew that it would be difficult to defeat the enemy today, so he immediately ordered the troops to retreat.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
