There is no impermeable wall in the world, and the news of Liu Feng's integration of Cizhou, along with the caravans coming and going, quickly spread to those who are still interested in Cizhou. Moreover, Liu Feng did not secretly carry out reforms, and Cizhou still carried out large-scale rectification from time to time, but as the schedule of the auction became closer and closer, people's attention to Cizhou became higher and higher, and the reform of Cizhou became famous in the north.

As the Luzhou Zhaoyi Army who regarded Cizhou as their own meal, Luzhou Mengfu, Zhaoyi Army Meng Fangli and his army Feng Dao sat opposite each other, looking at each other. Feng Dao faced Meng Fangli's questioning eyes, and the sweat kept dripping down.

"Envoy! It has been verified that Liu Feng'er has indeed taken over Cizhou with full authority! Feng Dao's voice trembled and said slowly,

Meng Fangli kicked over the coffee table between the two of them, and said angrily: "How can this be, how can Zeng Yu be soft to that little child, there must be the Hedong Army helping him!" He didn't dare or wanted to believe that this was the truth, the Zhaoyi Army didn't have the idea of fighting Cizhou, but Meng Fangli marched into Cizhou several times, but was forced back by Zeng Yu's tough attitude, and now Zeng Yu has become one of Liu Feng's subordinates.

Feng Dao's face showed a complicated look of embarrassment and surprise, and now, they have gradually discovered that Liujiabao does not have the existence of the Hedong Army, but the person who confirmed the existence of the Hedong Army in Liujiabao is Feng Dao, and this misunderstanding also gave Liujiabao a few months of development. Now the Zhaoyi Army wants to take Cizhou hard, and it takes a lot of effort not to say it, for fear that it will also hurt its muscles and bones.

Seeing that Meng Fangli had reached the time of anger, if he had no way to solve this problem, I am afraid that his head would not be able to be saved, his eyes rolled, he thought about it, and said flatteringly: "That little boy thinks that he has defended Xianghe Mountain, so that our Zhaoyi army can no longer offend him Liujiabao, don't you know that we can bypass Xiangzhou, General Zhang Mao of Xiangzhou is also under your command, although the two armies are not very familiar now, but it is convenient to take the road, and General Zhang will not be embarrassed." Besides, Xiangzhou to Cizhou is a flat river, there is no danger to defend, as long as it reaches the territory of Cizhou, then it is not our final say? ”

Meng Fangli, who was furious, heard this, his eyes lit up, and he said thoughtfully: "Do you mean to attack Cizhou by using Xiangzhou?" ”

"Make the king clear! That kid is so reckless, and he is only relying on Xianghe Mountain to be easy to defend and difficult to attack, if we borrow Xiangzhou, how can his villagers be the opponents of the Zhaoyi Army! ”

Meng Fangli, who had already extinguished his anger, was carefully recalling Feng Dao's words, paced in the hall for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "You go to Zhang Mao's place to negotiate, everything is done after the negotiation, and then make preparations, this time you are not allowed to make mistakes, you have no chance to make mistakes again!" ”

Feng Dao said respectfully: "We must complete the envoy's entrustment!" ”

……

Not to mention, how is the Zhaoyi Army in Luzhou calculating Cizhou, at this time, the entire Cizhou has entered a stage of rapid operation, busy days, always passing fast, the soldiers are vigorous and resolute, not to mention that Cizhou in this stage of fighting for time everywhere, Zeng Yu within three days after the rectification of the right battalion of the original Cizhou Army, he will go to quickly capture Wu'anyi.

On that day, Zeng Yu gathered his Wu'an battalion, eight capitals, more than 2,000 people, the basic configuration is three longbowmen, three pikemen, one sword and shield player, one team of personal guards and riders, and the new and neat Liu military uniforms also make this team majestic. As the first expedition of the newly established Wu'an Battalion, Liu Feng and others still attached great importance to it, and saw them off at the south gate of Cizhou with Wu Junliang and others.

Many Cizhou villagers who heard the news watched the departure ceremony of the camp from a distance, perhaps there were villagers watching, or they put on new military uniforms, and 2,000 people stood silently in a formation under the city, with spears like a forest, and a solemn momentum came to the surface.

Liu Feng stood on the simple platform, in front of his own army, high-spirited but also moved, presided over the ceremony of Cizhou Gong Qi Changmin, after a few words, he signaled Liu Feng to step forward to speak.

Step forward, the former sergeants, they are actually not ready, even if Zeng Yu is trained well, it is impossible to reorganize the training department in three days, they have just eaten a few days of food, and they are about to go to the battlefield, in fact, even if there is more time, it is good, but Liu Feng is not in a hurry, he urgently needs the iron and stone of Wu'an City, and he needs to equip more sergeants with iron armor.

He took a long breath and said loudly, "Brothers, it's not that I won't allow you to trim it! It was really forced by the situation, we used to be sons and brothers and brothers and husbands and fathers, but as soon as the war came, these titles were buried, and it only gave us a common name, soldiers!! Soldiers have dignity only when they are fighting, only on the battlefield, yes, we have fought and lost battles, we have suffered hunger and bloodshed and died, and we know the cruelty and tragedy of war. ”

He changed his words and said: "But as a soldier, in the face of the brutal wolf horseman, we must continue to bleed, continue to fight to the death, we can't hide, we can't hide, as long as we have a breath, we should stand on the battlefield to protect our home and hometown." We want to let the brothers who died in Cizhou to resist the wolf ride know that their blood was not shed in vain, and that the Cizhou people are still there, even if they fall, we will also bite off a piece of his flesh! ”

"Come on! Let me beat the drum for you! ”

As Liu Feng's war drums sounded, there were also bursts of orders in the queue, and the two-thousand-person four-way column, accompanied by the earth-shattering slogan, the eyes of the villagers slowly disappeared.

As soon as the team walked out of the sight of Cizhou City, it slowed down, except for some veterans of Liu Feng's ration of Wu'an Battalion, most of the Cizhou soldiers did not have so much physical strength at all, and the departure ceremony of a stick of incense under the city just now had already consumed most of their physical strength, they could not exhaust their physical strength, and if there were some other unexpected situations on the march, they would not be able to deal with it.

Zeng Yu also deliberately controlled the speed, unhurriedly let the soldiers hurry, and he did not hit the horse to move forward, but just sent all the guards and riders out to inquire about the situation. After two hours of continuous travel, the speed slowed down even more. Zeng Yu had to stop and trim again, he knew that this march was also a kind of exercise for these soldiers to recover their physical strength, anyway, now that the dry food was enough, they had also eaten two meals of meat in the past few days. After the defeat of Wu'an City, more than a month, these soldiers will be able to recover from life, Zeng Yu has such confidence, he believes in his sergeants.

It is like playing in the mountains and rivers, although Zeng Yu is very anxious in his heart, but he knows that sharpening the knife is not a mistake for chopping wood, although there are only a few wolf riders in Wu'an City, and now they can forcibly march there and capture it, but the Liao people's death-defying counterattack will make them suffer heavy losses. Therefore, Zeng Yu would rather arrive in Wu'an a day or two later to give these sergeants a pitiful little time to recover.

Wu'an and Cizhou are only a hundred miles away, and a rapid march can be reached in one day, while the Cizhou army has walked for three days, which can also be described as a snail march.

The next day before the sun set, the Cizhou army arrived in Wu'an City, had been waiting for the news of dozens of Khitan wolf riders, yesterday on the road with Zeng Yu's personal guard riders after a slight hand, 2,000 Cizhou soldiers in the march to Wu'an, then withdrew to Xingzhou.

The ruined Wu'an City was occupied by the Cizhou soldiers, and the soldiers cheering on the broken city wall, Zeng Yu did not have the slightest joy, his original intention was to annihilate all the wolf riders in Wu'an City, so that the news of the fall of Wu'an could spread to the direction of Xingzhou later, so that he could make some preparations in Wu'an City!

Now, he miscalculated, those wolf riders were more alert than he thought, and when he had not surrounded Wu'an City, they all withdrew to Xingzhou, leaving those local miscellaneous soldiers in Wu'an City, they were all gathered by Zeng Yu to continue to do chores, and they were also used to being instructed so much, and obediently did the things distributed by the Cizhou soldiers.
