The sun was blazing in the sky, and the sun brutally poured down the fiery temperature, and roasted the whole earth to the point that even the flowers and plants under the trees drooped their heads weakly. The tiger was bare-chested lying in the grass more than a man deep, staring at the enemy camp by the stream below the mountain with a pair of big bull's eyes.

Since the Red Turban Army led by Bai Yucheng, who occupied Gaotang, accepted the remote recruitment of Linzitian, the Gaotang War suddenly resumed, and Wang Pei's troops continued to attack the area occupied by the Red Turban Army, trying to recapture Gaotang City and expel the Red Turban Army. The Qi army led by Tian Jingwen on the border between Pinglu and Gaotang maintained a warm attitude as Bai Yucheng expected, not attacking or retreating, although it restrained some of Wang Pei's troops, but it really transferred most of the pressure to Bai Yucheng's Red Turban Army. Only when Bai Yucheng complained fiercely to Jicheng and even threatened to pull people away, Tian Jingwen would command his subordinates to launch some painless attacks to deal with it.

Speaking of which, it is not that Tian Jingwen intends to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, but he is also unable to catch it, most of the elite of Qi are now under the command of Tian Fucheng, and Wang Pei is one of the main forces, although Tian Jingwen has obtained 10,000 prisoners of war released by the Han State, but compared with the opponent, it still seems weak, and the defense of the vast border between Gaotang and Pinglu has made his troops extremely scattered, and the newly recruited soldiers and horses under his hands are indeed difficult to take on the big task now. It's okay to keep it, but it's not enough to be aggressive, * Tian Jingwen is worried that Wang Peisheng will attack the west and attack the Red Turban Army openly, but secretly he will mobilize troops and horses to give him a heavy blow, so he is careful step by step. After several times of temptation, Wang Pei was even more emboldened to launch a larger-than-scale attack on Gao Tang, and the pressure on Gao Tang's Bai Yucheng became more and more intense.

Bai Yucheng, who was born as a horse thief, adhered to the operational concept that attack is defense, was pressed by Wang Pei for more than a month, and was very angry in his heart, and made up his mind to launch a counterattack and regain the initiative on the battlefield. In this way, Wang Pei could be forced to shrink his forces and defend Jimo from being harassed by the Red Turban Army.

As a general, Wang Pei naturally knew the importance of Tuanfeng County, and an elite army of 3,000 people was stationed here, commanded by the veteran Zhang Shicheng. The defense is not revealing, and it does not give the Red Turban Army any opportunity to take advantage of it.

It has been three days since the tiger head arrived here, and in order to defeat this Qi army in one fell swoop this time, the main force of the Red Turban Army and Wang Pei launched a fierce battle in front of Fengyang, which was also the first time in several months that the Red Turban Army launched a large-scale active attack on the Qi army. But no matter how hard the battle was in the direction of Fengyang, this Qi army, under the command of Zhang Shicheng, stood still, completely ignoring the fierce battle on the other side, and was so angry that the tiger's head almost crushed its teeth.

During the day, the sun almost roasted people, and in order to hide their appearance, they could not make a fire to cook, they could not move around at will, they ate dry food that they carried with them, and the most common thing they did every day was to lie on their stomachs in the grass and in the woods, waiting for the time to fight, but the time was not yet there.

In such a hot day, the replenishment of drinking water became a big problem, the clear water flowing in the ravine below the mountain was out of reach, the drinking water carried with them was in a hurry, and most of the soldiers' water bladders were empty.

The day is sad, the night is also difficult, a night, the weather is cool, but countless mosquitoes from the grass buzzed out of it, happily pounced on this rich blood food, one by one sucked fat head big ears, these days, the tiger head has found that the spirit of the soldiers is in a sharp decline, fortunately brought out are veterans, if the recruits, I am afraid that there is no need to fight at all, the tiger head can take them gray and slippery.

Even now, Hutou also knows that he is afraid that things are no longer possible, this guy named Zhang Shicheng is very old, and it seems that there will be no problems in Fengyang at all, let alone rescue, even if he sends a few teams to find out the news, he is too lazy to do it. He simply couldn't find any chance to attack.

Fight hard, the tiger head doesn't think that he can break through this strong camp, besides, if he can't annihilate this army, even if he is defeated, it will be impossible to achieve the goal of this battle.

This made the tiger head angry, looking at the red spots on his body that were bitten by mosquitoes, the tiger head lay on the ground, pulling out a clump of grass in front of him so that there was not a single one left.

"Staff Officer Zhao is here." A pro-soldier ran up to the tiger's head and whispered.

Zhao Yi'an's face was full of exhaustion, his eyes were full of red silk, he sneaked all the way from Fengyang. Seeing Zhao Yi'an, the tiger head said angrily: "Staff Officer Zhao, this time your plan is not working, this Zhang Shicheng will not move his nest at all, he has 3,000 men and horses, and in the well-prepared camp, I only have less than 2,000 people here, but I can't fight hard."

Zhao Yi'an sat down, this experience also gave him a vivid practical lesson, no matter how good the plan is, sometimes he may not be able to go at his own pace, at this time, he finally figured it out, it is still a question of the comparison of strength between the enemy and us, even if the Red Turban Army comes out, it is impossible to completely defeat Wang Pei on the frontal battlefield, this is the reason why Zhang Shicheng does not move at all, if the Red Turban Army is strong and has the possibility of defeating Wang Pei, why is he so still?

"What is hateful is that Tian Jingwen did not launch an offensive at all to flank Wang Pei with our army." Zhao Yi'an was a little depressed, pulled out a clump of grass and twisted it into a ball in his hand, "Hou Ye is also very annoyed, he agreed with Tian Jingwen before that the two armies would attack at the same time."

"You didn't tell the other party that we were going to seize the group's secret chess, Tian Jingwen was treacherous and slippery, he must have seen that even if we cooperated with the two sides, it was impossible to get too many results, so he didn't bother to move!"

"How can our hole cards completely sue him, and I don't believe that Tian Jingwen doesn't have Tian Fucheng's inner ghost under his command." Zhao Yi'an said angrily.

"Forget it, don't talk about it now, you rush over now, are you suing me for ending this time?" Tiger Head Road.

"Yes!" Zhao Yi'an nodded and said: "The main force has withdrawn from the battle yesterday, and I personally asked Hou Ye to come to you to inform you, General Hutou, I am very sorry this time, I have suffered for several days in vain."

Glancing at Zhao Yi'an, the tiger head snorted, "This is nothing, in fact, if you don't come, I will also prepare to retreat, I can't drink water and supplies, and the chance to win against the enemy is not big, killing three thousand enemies and losing eight hundred, we are too lazy to do it. Retreat, find another opportunity."

"Now that Gao Tang and Pinglu are deadlocked, Linzi has been able to mobilize the army to support Zou Zhang, so that Cheng Siwei will be difficult to achieve results for a while, what Linzi wants to gain is time, and now they have reached the most basic goal, just survive with Tian Fucheng, Tian Fucheng's prospects are not good, but this is not good for us." Zhao Yi'an scratched his head, "The king wants to solve the problem of Qi within this year and next year, we can't open the situation, how can we complete the task on time?"

"What's the solution? Unless Meng Chong launches an attack from Queensland!"

"This is naturally no problem from a military point of view, but the king still has to consider the political problems after taking the Qi State!" Zhao Yi'an sighed, "If we take down an unstable Qi country, a Qi country that is constantly resisting, it will not benefit us at all, how many troops will be involved!" You know, our next opponent is either the Chu State or the Qin State, no matter which one is a behemoth, what the king wants is a smooth and rapid integration of the Qi State." Zhao Yi'an said distressedly.

Tiger head shrugged, for these things, he didn't understand very well, and he didn't bother to understand. Reaching out and grabbing the clothes and armor that had been thrown aside, he put them on his body and said, "Anyway, this battle can't be fought, so withdraw!"

Zhao Yi'an nodded wordlessly.

The two of them stood up from the grass in silence.

At the bottom of the mountain, there was a huge cheer, the tiger was stunned, grabbed a few steps, looked down the mountain, it was the camp of the Qi army that cheered, a team of Qi troops rushed out of the camp, cheering loudly, shouting, many people even threw themselves directly into the ravine not far away, hitting each other with the stream for fun.

"They also know that in the battle of Fengyang, we lost, and they are celebrating!" Zhao Yi'an said angrily. After saying this, he found that the tiger head was looking directly at the Qi army under the mountain, and his heart couldn't help jumping.

"Tiger Head General!" He shouted under his breath.

The tiger head suddenly turned his head and looked at Zhao Yi'an: "Staff Officer Zhao, do you want to do something to make these guys happy and sad?"

Zhao Yi'an's eyes lit up suddenly, if you talk about timing, this is indeed the best time, the enemy army is celebrating, and the defense is naturally relaxed.

"But Hou Ye's order is to retreat!" He hesitated.

"Will be outside, when a temporary decision is made according to the actual situation, how can there be such a mother-in-law, if everything can go according to the plan, then this battle is a fart!" Tiger Head dismisses the authentic truth." Do it, Staff Officer Zhao, you have also been in the field army before, do you have the courage to fight with me? It's a bit risky, but as long as it succeeds, the group will be ours."

Provoked by the tiger's head, Zhao Yi'an's fierce aura that he had cultivated in the field army before was suddenly hooked, and he tightly held the saber on his waist, "Dry."

What Zhang Shicheng, who was stationed here, never expected was that the attack suddenly came when the Qi army was celebrating the complete victory of the frontal battlefield of Fengyang, and when the enemy troops with red scarves appeared in view, his troops were still celebrating outside the camp.

The battle unfolded at a point in time that he had not expected at all. (To be continued......) R1292
