Quqiu Mountain.

Cheng Wu led more than a dozen Han cavalry up the mountain, but in a moment, he alarmed the people on the entire mountain.

The Han army came, indicating that reinforcements had arrived.

"General, Xiaomin will take you to the big households in the county first, now the Xue family is in charge of the mountain, and the people listen to them, Xiaomin should first go to report to Father about the situation of the thieves camping."

Looking at the hungry and clothed people among the surrounding mountain streams, Yang Feng frowned, first nodded when he heard this, then jumped his eyebrows and stretched out his hand and said, "Wait, who sent you to explore the thief camp?" ”

"General Hui, it's Xiaomin's father."

"A certain is just a military candidate, not a general." Yang Feng waved his hand and pulled Cheng Wu and said, "Let's go, take me to see Ling Zun." ”

Cheng Wu was pulled forward by Yang Feng, and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "General, you don't see the Xue family?" ”

"What Xue clan see, Ling Zun is an insightful person, and it's not too late to see those big surnames later."

Not long after, Cheng Wu led Yang Feng and more than a dozen Changshui camp scouts to climb the mountain peak and saw Cheng Li.

Cheng Wu went for three hours, and when he reached the top of the mountain, Cheng Li was frowning and circling in place, the mountain wind blew his hair and clothes, and a scribbled map was drawn on the ground, and the half-burned branches were thrown aside.

Cheng Wu walked up to Cheng Li and bowed to the ground without saying a word, and said, "Father, the child is back." ”

As soon as Cheng Li saw that it was his eldest son who came back, the hand he was originally holding behind his back stretched out a few inches in front of him, then retracted again, nodded with his hands behind his back and said, "Well, how did you become like this." It's good to come back, has the situation of the thief's camp been discovered? As he spoke, Cheng Li noticed Yang Feng and a Han army behind Cheng Wu, and arched his hand and said, "This ...... I don't know which one it is? But reinforcements from the county? In the next Cheng Li, I saw the military waiting. ”

Cheng Li is a person who has fought in the army, not to mention that he has a knighthood on his body, and it can be seen that the official does not worship. At a glance, he could see that the clothes and armor on Yang Feng's body were military attire.

Yang Feng nodded, he saw Cheng Li's small actions to hide his feelings, and was surprised by the size of the skeleton of the middle-aged man in front of him, this Cheng Li was more than eight feet tall, his face was full of edges and corners, and he looked unkind, Yang Feng said expressionlessly: "No need to be polite, a certain Yang Feng of the Changshui Battalion of the Northern Army, our department ordered to clear the Yellow Turban of Dongxian County, and passed through Hemu City to know that Dong'e County Cheng responded to the Yellow Turban Rebellion, and the captain led the troops on the way here." ”

"That's great, that's great." Cheng Li stretched out his hand and gestured and said: "With my Han elite northern army coming, this king will be difficult to fly!" Wu'er, what's the situation in the traitor camp? ”

"The child has been discovered, Father wait a moment." Cheng Wu stood up from the ground as he spoke, looked around and picked up the branches that Cheng Li threw on the ground, drew the outline of the county town on the ground with charcoal ash, and said while drawing: "That Wang Du is not in the city, he is camped in five miles outside the west gate of the city, and there should be no less than three thousand traitors in the left and right miles." ”

"There are four gates in the east, west, north and south of the camp, and the surrounding area is made of the county house beams, which is one zhang high, and there are more than eight or nine arrow towers in the camp, each placed in the ......" Cheng Wu said and drew the general outline of the camp on the ground, patted his head and said: "It should be like this, Wang Du's camp is built in a decent manner, and there should be county soldiers in his camp who know five soldiers to help him." ”

And ...... The child found that in the northwest corner of the county, there was a small village, there were countless caravans in the village, and there were more than ten thieves guarding the door, which should be to rob the county's money, grain and grass. After that, Cheng Wu stood up and said to Cheng Li: "Father, how is it, the child has lived up to your expectations." ”

"Wu'er, you did a good job this time, seeing that you have suffered a little bit like this, you have worked hard, take a good rest." Cheng Li nodded and patted Cheng Wu's shoulder, Cheng Wu looked at the worn clothes and shook the dust on them and said: "Father, in the end, the child was found and chased by more than a dozen yellow turban thieves for several miles, thanks to Yang Junhou who saved the child, otherwise the child would have been in a different place at this time." ”

As soon as he heard Cheng Li say to Yang Feng, he immediately bowed down and said, "Thank you for saving my child's life, this favor is hard to repay." The situation of the thief is like this, I don't know how the army plans to please the thief? ”

"Huh?" Yang Feng was staring at the map drawn by Cheng Wu and thinking, the most important thing in his eyes was the grain and grass in the small village, Ma Yue didn't have much grain and grass in the first place, not to mention that the consumption of the rest of the month along the way was only half a month, and the camp of Wang Du got these grain and grass, and the Changshui camp had no worries. Just thinking about it, Yang Feng heard Cheng Li ask himself, his first thought was a night attack, and there was no better strategy than a night attack.

"The captain is familiar with the art of war, and how to fight is the captain's business, and a certain person is responsible for fighting." Yang Feng said with a smile: "But if you want to say something, most of them are night attacks, taking advantage of the dark night rockets to encircle the infantry assault cavalry and strangle them, not to mention three thousand thieves, even five thousand can kill him." ”

"Don't attack at night!"

Yang Feng himself was quite satisfied with his night attack strategy, and as soon as the words fell, he heard Cheng Wu say something to stop him, and said with some unhappiness in his heart: "Why is this?" ”

"When passing through the gate of the village, the small people had a special look inside, the thieves set up camp in a proper manner and were very cautious, not only the camp gate is equipped with a deer, but also dug a shallow ditch in the camp gate, the night attack does not distinguish between the enemy and me, and will suffer a big loss."

"This ...... Thank you, little brother, I will report to the captain when I go back, and I need to think about it in the long run. ”

Cheng Li stroked half a foot of his long beard, then he already had it in mind, stretched out his hand and said, "Don't be in a hurry, it's not like this...... After nightfall, some of the people from the city shot their grain villages with bows and arrows, and organized the militia to rush out from the west gate to attack, and Wang Du must not want to attack us, and when he retreated, the captain led the troops to kill, and it was not easy to defeat him with a combination of inside and outside. ”

Yang Feng nodded and said with a smile: "What Mr. said is right, this can hit the morale of the enemy army, and it will be much easier to encircle and kill the defeated army." ”

"But Father." Cheng Wu said on the side: "What if the people don't rescue the grain village after the people attack from the city, and die in the camp to defend it?" Seeing that Wang Du has some means to set up camp, and the camp is set up cautiously, I am afraid that he is not an impulsive person. In that case, the final assault is not the same, and there are heavy casualties? ”

Without waiting for Cheng Li to speak, Yang Feng hooked the corners of his mouth, Cheng Li's strategy was almost foolproof, he figured it out and smiled: "The Yellow Turban thieves will not fail to save the grain village, not to mention that if he does not dare to go out of the village, we will first empty the grain village, and the people and our people will surround him to death in the camp and shoot him with a strong bow and crossbow." Even if they don't come out yet, they don't need us to fight after the food is cut off, they themselves will fight for food, and I can just sit back and reap the profits. ”

Cheng Li nodded and smiled after listening to Yang Feng's conclusion: "Yes, Wu'er, you have to learn more from the military and draw inferences from one another." What the military candidate said was also what his father thought. ”

Yang Feng put on his sash and bowed to Cheng Li: "I will thank Mr. on behalf of the lord first, and I will go to report to the lord that tomorrow night the northwest corner of the county will use fire as a letter to exterminate the rebels, but I will introduce Mr. to the lord again and say goodbye!" ”

"My lord?" Looking at the back of Yang Feng leaving with the Han army scouts, Cheng Li touched his beard and fell into thought.
