That night, the officers and men hidden in the mountains and forests not far from the crossing of the Yellow River withdrew from the mountains and forests and entered the ferry to rest and recuperate.

The futile efforts of several days of concealment have indeed had a great impact on these officers and men. Knowing this, they didn't have to do these useless work, just kill the Liu Mansion caravan as soon as possible.

But sometimes you don't have to know it early. Zhao He did not dare to openly let Wu Jin's Hanoi officers and soldiers attack the Liu Fu caravan, even if they pretended to be bandits. Because there were so many people in the Liufu caravan, and the combat effectiveness of the Liufu caravan made Zhao He feel a little worried and uneasy. Frontal attack, he didn't think there was much certainty.

What Zhao He wanted was not only to destroy the Liu Mansion caravan and seize the goods of the Liu Mansion caravan, but also to kill Liu Xian. If they attack head-on, they may not be able to kill Liu Xian, at least Liu Xian saw that the situation was wrong and fled? If you wait for the Liufu caravan to arrive at this Yellow River crossing and then suddenly attack it, then the situation will be different, and at that time, the Liufu caravan and Liu Xian himself will be trapped in this Yellow River crossing, so that Liu Xian will have no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth.

Now, there is no way, the caravan of Liu Mansion will not come, and Wu Jin's officers and soldiers will not be able to stay in the mountains and forests. In this way, he had no choice but to agree to Wu Jin's suggestion, and directly waved his army to Yangwu County to attack the Liu Fu caravan. Perhaps, the wealth of the Liu Mansion caravan and the wealth of Yangwu County moved Zhao He's heart. At this time, he didn't care whether he could kill Liu Xian in the end, he only hoped that Wu Jin could successfully destroy the Liu Mansion caravan and seize its wealth and the wealth of Yangwu County.

Zhao He believes that even if Liu Xian escapes with his life, there is only one way to die. Without the Liu Mansion caravan going to the capital, this is equivalent to cutting off Liu Xian's minions, so, as long as Liu Xian enters Beijing, then it is not a matter of words to take Liu Xian's life?

Wu Jin let his three or four thousand men rest all night, ready to attack Yangwu County early the next morning.

Not to mention Wu Jin's horses.

When they left the mountains and forests and entered the Yellow River ferry wharf to rest, Zhang Ning and others, who had hidden in the vicinity of these officers and soldiers, knew their movements for the first time.

Then, it was found out that those officers and soldiers only entered the ferry pier to rest, and did not take any action immediately. However, Zhang Ning estimated that these officers and soldiers would definitely take action, just as Liu Xian said, they could not ambush in the mountains and forests for a long time, they would either withdraw, or they would take the initiative to attack, or they would just want to wait at the ferry terminal. But no matter what, it is still necessary to inform Liu Xian to be ready to deal with it.

Zhang Ning did not send Zhou Cang back to report the news to Liu Xian, just send ordinary people to report with a fast horse, of course, the person who went back to report had to explain the situation here to Liu Xian.

Liu Xian was woken up before dawn and learned about the situation.

Liu Xian had already asked Huang Wudie and Wang Yue to lead more than 1,000 caravan guards to the ambush site to hide, waiting for this time.

Liu Xian didn't care if there was any movement among those officers and soldiers, whether they stayed or retreated, or came to attack him, he just acted according to the plan. In case those officers and soldiers stayed at the crossing of the Yellow River or withdrew to Qinyang, this would not be a loss to Liu Xian, and it would be a big deal to regard this operation as a field latent exercise.

In fact, Liu Xian has always demanded that the caravan guards under him must adapt to combat under any situation, and marching and lurking in the field are all basic training subjects.

The windbreak forest in the south of the original Liulin City is Liu Xian's best training ground. In the usual training of caravan guards, there is indeed a training program of lurking in the dense forest for two or three days.

In this regard, not to mention that Liu Xian is bent on training his military horses into a truly strong army in the world, even as a caravan guard, the requirements for them are relatively high. You know, escorting caravans is a journey of thousands of miles, sometimes even thousands of miles. In this process, anything can happen, and in order to deal with any situation that may be encountered, for each caravan escort soldier, they are required to adapt to any situation of fighting.

They had to adapt to rain battles, desert battles, mountain battles in the mountains, forests and mountains, and battles in cold climates. The most important thing is to learn some situations to survive in the wild for a long time without a base area, without food and drink.

Now, there may not be many conditions for caravan guards to learn to survive and fight in various environmental conditions. However, everyone has a certain amount of training to survive and fight in the wilderness.

In this operation, Liu Xian regarded it as a grass and a rabbit, no matter what the enemy was, he prepared himself and set up an ambush. When they come, they destroy them, and if they do not come, there is nothing to lose.

Of course, you must also pay attention to the enemy's movements, and you must not let the enemy give you a counter-ambush. But this is very easy to do, knowing where the enemy is, then you can keep an eye on their every move in the dark, which is very important.

In fact, this is also the case in any war, pay attention to a knowing oneself and knowing the enemy, as long as you grasp the strength of the enemy, know where they are, and their marching routes, etc., in this way, and then make targeted arrangements, then you can basically be invincible.

Liu Xian immediately ordered people to prepare to leave the camp, and when he went to the attack site, Yi Ji woke up.

Liu Xian and Yi Ji have reached the point of blending emotionally, but they have not stepped into the last step of each other, so they set up a military tent behind Liu Xian's military tent for Yi Ji.

"Brother Liu Xian, are those thieves coming? Are you going to strike now? ”

Yi Ji entered Liu Xian's military account and saw that Liu Xian was putting on armor, she hurriedly stepped forward to help, and asked softly.

"Well, they are moving, if they dare to attack us, we will stop them in the middle of the road, as long as we defeat them, we can cross the Yellow River safely, and there is no need to wait here." When you arrive in the capital, I will take you to see the prosperity of our Han Kyoto. ”

Liu Xian let Yi Ji put on his armor and said to her.

Liu Xian's armor is a silver fish armor scale, a complete set from head to toe. This is a good thing, it is a real silver armor system, and the value is not prohibitive. The ordinary archers and swords worn on the body are really difficult to hurt Liu Xian.

This armor, which Liu Xian found when he inspected a hidden warehouse in the Plains Palace, was sealed in a box. It is estimated that even Ma Guiren may not know that there is this armor. This whole set of armor also has a name, called the White Dragon Armor.

It is estimated that it is a limited edition made by the master craftsmen of the Han Dynasty military, and the first emperor gave a set to Liu Shuo of the Plains Palace, but it has never been used, so it is sealed in the warehouse.

Liu Xian tried, and it actually fits him very well, but he has never really used it. This time when he entered Beijing, Liu Xiancai brought the white dragon armor with him in case of emergency.

Wang Yue was sent to Changpo to ambush, and Huang Wudie was also responsible for the affairs of the broken slope and the ambush soldiers on both sides of the official road, and was not around. Liu Xian didn't dare to hold it up, he hadn't been able to become a real second-rate military general for a long time, and among this big man, he really didn't know how many of them were stronger than him. Without a super master by his side, Liu Xian must be well prepared.

"Brother Liu Xian, you must be careful, I will wait here for you to come back."

After putting on the armor for Liu Xian, Yi Ji took two steps back and looked at Liu Xian, Liu Xian at this time was really heroic and extraordinary, Yi Ji's big watery eyes couldn't help but shine with brilliance.

"I will. In our camp, the 1,000 young men will take on the task of guarding the camp, and I will leave another 100 people to guard you. In case of any situation, you don't go into the city, just ride your horse, and let the hundred guards escort you back to Willow Forest City. As for these goods, you don't have to care. Liu Xian was really a little worried about leaving her here by herself, after all, there were many things that she didn't expect. Although the county magistrate of Yangwu County has a cooperative deal with himself, who knows if he has anything to do with Hanoi Taishou? Of course, this is only in case, but Liu Xian still instructed.

"Don't worry, who would dare to touch your Liu Mansion caravan now? Just be careful yourself. ”

Liu Xian stepped forward, hugged her and said, "That's what I said, be careful in everything." I'm leaving. ”

Yi Ji was a little worried and reluctant, but she still hugged Liu Xian hard and then retreated.

More than 1,000 people have been quietly transferred, and now there are not too many people and horses that Liu Xian wants to bring. 100 cavalry and 100 guards, plus 5 or 600 spearmen, swords and shields.

Liu Xian's troops mainly rushed to the ambush place, and after the ambush began, he blocked the way of those thieves in front of the official road.

Liu Xian didn't say much, and let the assembled men and horses quietly leave the camp with him, without even lighting torches.

The main thing in an ambush war is secrecy, whether anyone is staring at their caravan camp or not, but this secrecy must be done well.

If Liu Xian swaggers out of the city directly, this will definitely be suspicious in the eyes of those who have a heart, or in the eyes of those who may be staring in secret. In this way, they can go to the Yellow River crossing to deliver the letter. From here to the Yellow River crossing in Wuzhi County, there is not only one official road, but also many small roads. If it was a spy who was familiar with the road, if he approached the road to report the news, let those officers and soldiers know that the people and horses in the Liu Mansion caravan camp were behaving abnormally. Then it is possible that they will abandon their plans to come and attack. In this way, Liu Xian's carefully prepared ambush battle this time was tantamount to being completely useless.

Shortly after leaving the camp, it was getting dark.

At the same time, the military camp at the Yellow River Ferry Wharf in Wuzhi County was expanded when the garrison was stationed during the fight against the Yellow Turbans a few years ago, and it was enough to accommodate thousands of people and horses stationed in it.

As soon as the day dawned, Wu Jin also put on all his armor and gathered his military horses.

After a period of commotion, the horses assembled.

Three or four thousand people, after a night's rest, have recovered a lot. After all, they are officers and soldiers, and they have undergone a certain amount of training in peacetime, so after the assembly, the military column is quite neat.

Of course, they were all wearing ordinary clothes at this time, and they were not wearing the standard armor of officers and soldiers, and even if they did, they would wear an extra piece of ordinary clothes outside.

If you don't look at their relatively neat Han standard weapons, it is really difficult to see that they are an army of officers and soldiers.

At this time, the weather was very hot, even if the morning was relatively cool, but after the formation, these officers and soldiers were all sweating.

This is a consequence of them wearing some more ordinary clothes.

Wu Jin said at this time: "Brothers, this time we are under the secret order of the imperial court, let me and others secretly solve the Liu Mansion caravan. As long as we destroy the Liu Mansion caravan and kill Liu Xian, then you have all made great contributions. After the fact, it is inevitable that meritorious deeds will be rewarded. Therefore, I hope that you will not be afraid of hardship and tiredness, from here to Yangwu County, there are still more than 30 miles to go, march urgently, and prepare to go! ”

"Ahem...... Zhao He also came out at this time, he walked in front of Wu Jin's war horse, and said: "Ladies and gentlemen in Hanoi, our family is Zhao He, the permanent servant of the palace, you may have some doubts, why did we destroy the Liu Mansion caravan?" To tell you the truth, this Liu Xian is actually secretly recruiting troops and intending to rebel. The secret agent of the court has found out his details. But this Liu Xian is extremely cunning, he actually climbed the relationship between Ma Guiren in the Plains Palace, after all, Ma Guiren can also be said to be the widow of the first emperor, and the emperor is thinking about Ma Guiren's sake, and it is not appropriate to directly blame Liu Xian. That's why I secretly ordered our family and your Lord Taishou. Liu Xian's scourge must be eliminated. In addition, the county magistrate of Yangwu County colluded with Liu Xian. So, the county order of Yangwu County is also damned! This time, you are allowed to take Yangwu County by the way, and when the time comes, you will be allowed to keep half of the spoils you get in Yangwu County. Here, Zhao will ask you brothers, please be sure to bring Liu Xian's head back to our family. We are here waiting for your triumphant return! ”

With a buzz, these officers and soldiers couldn't help but whisper to each other. Many officers and men already seemed a little excited.

They don't care if they are rebellious or not, the most important thing is that they can kill into Yangwu County, as long as they kill into Yangwu County, they can loot it on a large scale. Many of them are indeed accustomed to doing such things.

"Silence! Everyone has heard Lord Zhao's words, as long as they destroy the Liu Mansion caravan and kill Liu Xian. The official can also promise that after entering the city, you can keep half of your loot for yourself! Wu Jin saw that the sergeants below were all more energetic under Zhao He's temptation, and he also made a guarantee.

"Now, the army is leaving! Lord Zhao, please wait for good news, your subordinates will definitely personally behead Liu Xian. Walk! ”

Wu Jin waved his hand and rode out of the camp.

went directly to attack the Liu Mansion caravan, and what he wanted to fight was to be taken by surprise, so Wu Jin ordered his military horses to march quickly.

Three or four thousand men and horses, divided into two columns, like two long snakes, rushed on the road.

After a while, they walked from the crossing of the Yellow River to the official road, and then advanced south along the official road.

All this made Zhang Ning see it in his eyes, and as soon as possible, he asked Zhou Cang to go back and report.
