On the 22nd day of the first month of the 27th year of Longxi, Yinzhen and Qianduyu led 80,000 Sichuan troops and the Great Zhou army to hold on both sides of the Xiangshui River.

The general of the Great Zhou army was the general Hu Guozhu, although his army was only more than 20,000 people, but they were all elite soldiers, and part of the Jiangning Iron Cavalry was led by Hu Guozhu. On this basis, Hu Guozhu stepped up training and mutual cooperation, so that his troops became rare elite soldiers in the Wu ranks.

Now that the 80,000 Sichuan army is coming from the west, Hu Guozhu has asked for help from the front line on the one hand, and Ma Dabao's army that has invaded northwest Hubei and Hulin troops in northeast Hubei have successively received rescue signals.

However, although Hu Guozhu's troops were small, on the one hand, he occupied a favorable terrain, and on the other hand, he relied on the courage of his troops to not fall behind in the confrontation between the two sides of the Xiangshui River.

Seeing that Hu Guozhu's army sometimes rushed to kill, sometimes contracted, and commanded in an orderly manner, so that the 80,000 troops of the Sichuan army stayed on the bank of Xiangshui for more than half a month, Yinzhen became impatient and impatient, and said to the brigadier general Qian Duyu and the chief manager Zhan Tingyu behind him: "What can I do."

"Chitose don't be in a hurry, don't listen to what the "Cao Di Polemic" said, the truth of one blow, then decline, and three exhaustions, at this moment the Hu army is exhausted, we can completely show weakness, take it by surprise, attack it unprepared, and annihilate part of it," Zhan Tingyu said.

"What do you mean", Ginjin asked quizzically.

Zhan Tingyu pointed to an open field east of the Xiangshui River, and explained it like this, "How long is this calculation of the total management", Qian Duyu gave a thumbs up.

The pioneer Mu Jishi led 3,000 cavalry, retreated on the east bank of Xiangshui, fled north along the river, and Hu Jun had 4,000 iron cavalry in hot pursuit.

"It's here, it's here," Zhan Tingyu, who was standing on the west bank of the river and watching the battle, said excitedly to Sibeile Yinzhen.

In the bushes by the river, the tripping horses were pulled up, and the dozen or so horsemen who were chasing in front of them were tripped and fell to the ground, and the cavalry behind could not hold back, and five or six horses were tripped up. With the neighing of horses, a large number of soldiers with knives jumped out of the bushes, cutting off Hu Jun's legs.

For a while, the neighing of horses falling to the ground and the howls of Hu soldiers became .......

The cavalry of the Hu army in front went and returned, covering and killing.

Hu's army was temporarily dispersed, and only more than 1,000 of the 4,000 cavalry fled back.

"Okay, good, they have also tasted our strength, and the Jiangning Iron Cavalry is no more than that", Yinzhen, who was watching the battle from a distance, excitedly pointed to Hu Jun who fled in a hurry and shouted.

The Hu army retreated into the village on the side of the mountain, the drawbridge of the Hu army was pulled up, and the cavalry of the Mu army who rushed to the edge of the village stopped the offensive.

After a while, the arrows in the village came like locusts, and the Mu cavalry had to retreat.

"We'll be sure how to get around this dangerous place," said Twilight to herself.

"We have already sent many waves of reconnaissance horses, and there are enemy cottages at the four mountain intersections to the west, and we cannot fly, so we have to consume the enemy's strength and momentum little by little," Zhan Tingyu replied with a sigh.

"Leap", Qian Dui Yu thought, it seems that it is time to use the Xuantian Bagua Array Formation.

After this defeat, the Hu army held on tightly to the four intersections, held on to it, and attacked with arrows when the Sichuan army approached, so the Sichuan army was numerous, but there was nothing to be done.

While the front was constantly harassing the Hu army, in the dense forest behind the Sichuan army, more than 10,000 Sichuan troops were busy cutting down trees, and 2,000 carpenters were processing the wood according to Qian Duyu's instructions.

On the third day, the Metropolitan Governor Yinzhen came to observe, and when he saw the round wooden frames, he felt inexplicable, "What is this, why can't you see it", Yinzhen smiled and asked Qianduyu on the side.

"It's done in a few days, and my brother will be able to see it," said Twilight with a smile.

"Kong Ming of the Three Kingdoms invented a Trojan horse and a flowing cow, could it be that my brother was also inspired by Mr. Kong Ming", Yinzhen asked rhetorically.

"This kind of fortification of mine is much more powerful than the Trojan Horse Flowing Ox, this kind of fortification is called Wooden Dragon", Twilight Feather saw that the righteous brother was very curious, and simply revealed a little to him.

By the sixth day, four giant wooden dragons more than ten zhang long had been successfully made.

This wooden dragon is a four-legged wooden dragon, and its body is made of a circular wooden linkage, and only a soldier is used to hold a rope in front of it, and when he pulls it, the four legs of the wooden dragon will take a step forward.

"What can this do?" asked Ginjin with some confusion, looking at the sluggish wooden dragon.

"This kind of fortification is called a long dragon tail swing, and it's very powerful," Twilight said with a grin, without much explanation.

On the night of the first month of February in the twenty-seventh year of Longxi, the sky was dark, and the four wooden dragons were dragged outside the four cottages, looking at the camp of the Hu army outside the trench more than thirty zhang away, Qianduyu issued the first order.

The two soldiers pulled up a rope on the dragon's head, and saw that the dragon's body was raised in a row, the dragon's tail jumped up quickly, and a wide wooden board placed on the dragon's tail was bombed, and it was thrown towards the Hu army camp outside the trench in a flash.

With the flickering of sparks, a series of explosions suddenly occurred in the Hu army camp more than eighty zhang away, the fire light illuminated the sky, and panicked howls came from the Hu army camp.

The second wave of earth bomb D white was placed on the tail of the earth dragon, this time it was four soldiers pulling the rope, and there was a burst of sparks, this time the speed of the dragon's tail jumping up was faster, a burst of sparks splashed, flashed in the air dozens of zhang high, like a meteor fell to the Hu army camp more than a hundred zhang away,...。

At this moment, the four large battalions of the Hu army were attacked at the same time, and the shouts, sirens, the howls of the soldiers who were bombed into the sky, and the screams of the soldiers whose clothes were burned were all together.

The third time the wooden dragon swung its tail, only one soldier pulled the rope, and the four soldiers holding big knives sitting on the dragon tail were thrown into the air by the dragon tail, and with a leap in the air, they were sent to the Hu army village fifty meters away.

The fourth time the wooden dragon swung its tail, four more soldiers were sent over.

At this time, the eight soldiers who had stood firm had steadily lowered the drawbridge, and the Sichuan army rushed over like flowing water.

The fourth camp of the Hu army, because there were more soldiers near the drawbridge, so the four waves of soldiers sent over by Longwei did not gain a firm foothold, and they were all killed by these Hu soldiers.

The wooden drawbridge was also burned down by the Hu army, and the general who commanded it was Li Ying, who saw the suspension bridge destroyed, had to order the soldiers to project the soil bomb D carried over in waves, and it blossomed in the Hu army'......s camp.

When the sky was about to dawn, the first three Hu army cottages have been occupied by the Sichuan army that has swarmed into the tide, only the fourth cottage, due to the destruction of the suspension bridge, can not use a large number of troops for a while, after the earth bomb D was used, the left army commander Li Ying watched the other three roads successfully occupy the enemy camp, and he anxiously ordered the soldiers to rush down the trench, trying to use the way of using the human wall from the trench to climb over, but due to the local arrows were too dense, after losing more than 300 people, he finally gave up.

At the end of the day, the sky was bright. After receiving the news that the other three cottages had been captured, Hu Guozhu of the fourth camp sighed, knowing that the general trend had gone, led the remaining less than 5,000 people and hurriedly evacuated.

The Sichuan army finally crossed Xiangshui and continued to advance eastward.
