Xu Shiji finally couldn't help but propose: "Mi Gong, at present, the Zhou army in Jindi Pass is less famous than Yu Ming, although Qin Qiong, Luo Shixin, Cheng Yanjin and others also had a lot of fame before, but judging from the past examples, it is mostly under the command of Zhang Xutuo and Yu Ming, the two Great Sui Shuangbi, that they can make such military achievements." ”

"Right now, Yuming has two soldiers, could it be that he has sent two generals to attack our army at the same time? If he defends the city by himself, we can divide our forces to resist the two weeks. Then a surprise army was sent out to make a detour along the south bank of the Yellow River, attacking this pass from the east side of Jindi Pass, and attacking the enemy on both sides. ”

"After the Jindi Pass is in an emergency, Yu Ming is worried that he will be cut off, so he will naturally order the two troops sent out before to turn back to guard the pass, and when the time comes, our army will press the border and force him to have a decisive battle under the pass, because this is all flat land, there is no need to worry about the enemy ambushing as before, our army can rely on the advantage of troops, and win the battle."

Li Mi showed a look of approval, and said in his heart that Xu Shiji was really a resourceful military advisor, a wise general, and he regarded him as the number one think tank of the Wagang Army, and he could be regarded as choosing the right person.

At this time, the scout captain had already rushed into the tent and said urgently: "Report to King Wei!" It has been found out that the general of the Zhou army heading to the crossing of the Yellow River is Luo Shixin, and the enemy heading to Xingyang will be Qin Qiong. ”

Li Mi breathed a long sigh of relief, his eyes showed joy, and he secretly thought that Yuming's trick turned out to be nothing more than that.

"Yu Ming thought this move was a strange soldier, and he could win with one drum, and while entangling me, he went to snatch Liyang Cang and sneak attack Xingyang, but he didn't know that this method was a risk. After the division of troops, he had much fewer men and horses left behind to guard Jindi Pass. Under the siege of the superior forces of our army, it was again fought on the plains. How can he prevail against me? Hehe, if he loses this battle in the field, Jindiguan will become a lonely city. At that time, I will destroy his other two partial divisions, and Yuming will become a turtle in the urn! Uncle Wang should listen to the order. Li Mi sneered and said.

"The subordinates are here."

Wang Bodang immediately went out and bowed.

Li Mi said in a deep voice: "This king ordered you to be the commander of the left army, and lead 50,000 elite soldiers to Baima Ferry to annihilate Luo Shixin's army, Luo Shixin only has 20,000 horses, and you fight him with 50,000 people, presumably even if you don't win, you can retreat with your whole body, right?" ”

"Obey the orders of the secret duke! The last general will definitely do his best to return triumphantly! When Wang Bodang heard this, he was overjoyed, and thought that he would attack Luo Shixin's 20,000 men with 50,000 men, and if he couldn't win, he should indeed wipe his neck.

As soon as he received the order, he went out of the camp to order his troops.

Li Mi smiled slightly, and said, "Shan Xiongxin obeys the order!" ”

"The last general!" Shan Xiongxin also bowed.

"I ordered you to be the commander of the right army, and lead the ten thousand elite cavalry to follow Qin Qiong, you don't have to attack him immediately, wait for him to start attacking Xingyang, and then attack from behind. Together with the Xingyang defenders, they will attack inside and outside, and I believe that they will be able to defeat Qin Qiong! Li Mi shouted.

"The last general will listen to the order, and he will definitely take Qin Qiong's head back to ask you for credit!" Shan Xiongxin bowed down and received the order. He is also full of confidence, after all, his men and horses are all cavalry, and with the cooperation of the Xingyang defenders, it is really impossible to say that he is still victorious on this plain.

"Hmmm! Taking Xingyang should also be what Yuming wants to do the most, so that he can use his family members in Xingyang City to hold the soldiers of our Wagang Army hostage. Therefore, he must attach great importance to Qin Qiong's army. If he sees you following Qin Qiong, he may also send troops to catch up...... If this is the case, you will quickly inform me, and then entangle with it, and wait for my army to come, and then surround Yuming and annihilate it!" Li Mi said in a deep voice.

"The last general must obey the orders of King Wei!" Shan Xiongxin was full of promises.

After Shan Xiongxin left, Li Mi ordered the rest of the generals to order their troops and horses and go out with him. For a while, the Wei army heralds in the camp were busy, and people shouted and neighed, so it was not lively.

Li Mi looked at the large group of Wei soldiers and horses who were ready to go, but he muttered to himself: "Yuming, I want to see if you are as powerful as the legend!" ”

Li Mizhi was strict with the army, and after Shan Xiongxin got the order, he immediately ordered all the men and horses out of the camp and followed Qin Qiong's army along the southern foot of the mountain.

His purpose was not to intercept Qin Qiong's army, but to follow behind him and take advantage of Qin Qiong's army to attack Xingyang City, and then suddenly attack from behind. This is a conspiracy, even if Qin Qiong knows it, there is nothing to be done, unless he does not attack Xingyang, he will not be able to avoid the situation of being caught from both sides.

And Shan Xiongxin also knew that it would be impossible for him to march with 10,000 cavalry quietly, and he would definitely be discovered by the Zhou army. Therefore, he marched with great fanfare, and for a while, the banners of the army were like a sea, the hooves of the horses were bursting, and the troops of a team were simply discharged in a group of postures, and they walked in dust, and people shouted and neighed.

He was also full of confidence, believing that even if he could not completely annihilate Qin Qiong's army in this battle, he would be able to remain undefeated.

……

The north of Jindi Pass is a continuous high mountain range, and there is a small town in the south of the mountain mountain, which is very close to Jindi Pass, called Beibi Town, and the location is very important.

Beibi Town is located between Jindi Pass and Baima Ferry on the south bank of the Yellow River, calculating the distance, 15 miles away from Baima Ferry and 40 miles away from Jindi Pass.

The town is located under the mountains, sandwiched between the mountains and the Jindi Pass, although the strategic position is important, but because the south side is full of plains, the terrain is flat, and it has become an easy place to attack and difficult to defend.

When Zu Junyan guarded Jindi Pass before, he also felt that this town was relatively weak, and he did not think of sending an army to guard this town. Therefore, after Li Mi learned that Yuming had sent troops to guard this town, he also thought that this move was suspected of dispersing the troops, and it was not the best strategy to defend the pass.

In Li Mi's view, letting Wang Bodang attack Luo Shixin's 10,000 cavalry and 10,000 infantry with 50,000 soldiers and horses should be a matter of being captured. On the infinitely defendable plain, as long as the Wei army's iron cavalry charged, the Zhou army's infantry would be crushed at the touch of a button. Therefore, the northern army of the Zhou army did not have to worry at all.

And he himself personally led the main force of the Wei army to enter the Jindi Pass, preparing for a decisive battle with Yuming in the open area of this plain.

Among the main force of the Wei army led by him, 10,000 soldiers were Li Mi's younger soldiers recruited from his hometown. These soldiers have a high fighting accumulation, and they are also very loyal to Li Mi, and they are not afraid of death when they fight, and they don't know what fear is. At the beginning, Li Mi was able to defeat the Sui army, which was superior to him in terms of equipment and soldier quality, in many confrontations with the Sui army, and this younger army made great contributions.

The spring breeze blew the battle flags, the horse's hooves were urgent, Li Mi marched overnight, and when he arrived in front of the gate of Jindi Guanxi, it was already early in the morning. However, he was not tired at all, and looked at the troops under him who were still in good spirits, and a sense of pride rose in his heart.

The current Wei army is no longer what it used to be, and it is far from the Wagang mud leg that was beaten by the Sui army seven or eight years ago. Under the rectification of Li Mi and a group of Sui Dynasty generals, the combat effectiveness has already increased exponentially, and judging from the previous battle with Wang Shichong's army, the Wei army has not been inferior at all.

And Wang Shichong's army was adapted from the Sui army. Even his army is not his opponent, how can these Zhou troops who came all the way from Hebei be their opponents?

Now the main force led by him has a total of 200,000 people, including 80,000 cavalry and 120,000 infantry, all of which are elite troops. Not to mention that his troops were 80,000 more than the Zhou army at Jindi Pass, and he was also superior to the Zhou army in terms of the quality of his soldiers.

He also found out that nearly half of the 200,000 Zhou troops in Yuming's southward movement were surrendered by the original troops of Luo Yi, Dou Jiande, Xu Yuanlang, Wang Bo and others. And how strong can these people be? Even if they have experienced battles, how can they compare to their own Wagang elite?

When Li Mi arrived at the foot of Jindi Pass, the Zhou officers and soldiers at the head of the city had already been awakened, and when they saw the Wei army setting up such a big battle, they couldn't help but grab the bows and arrows in their hands, prepare to roll stones and wood, and wait for the battle.

Seeing that the invading enemy was all cavalry, the soldiers of the Zhou army defending the city were a little relieved. There were still tens of thousands of soldiers in Jindiguan, although they were all infantry, and they might not be able to defeat the Wei army in the field. But it was more than enough for the defense of the city.

No matter how fierce the Wei cavalry is, even if it is more powerful than the Turkic elite cavalry, it is absolutely impossible to capture the city. The soldiers of the Zhou army who defended the city were still very confident in the various siege weapons on their heads.

Of course, they weren't stupid enough to go out of the city to fight these Wei troops. The troops that should have left the city had already been stationed in Beibi Town under the leadership of Yu Ming. It forms a rugged trend with Jindi Pass. Therefore, they could only indifferently watch the cavalry and infantry of the Wei army under the city, but no one wanted to go out of the city to stop them.

They knew that with their own recruits who had only enlisted in the army, as well as the old and weak soldiers in the army, going out of the city to fight with the Wei army in the field was purely sending them to death. They held on to the city, and it was enough to keep the city from losing.

However, at this time, they suddenly heard the sound of fighting in the direction of Xingyang in the south, the dust was flying, the smoke was foggy, and all the Zhou troops in the city were strange, and they didn't know where the army was fighting?

Li Mi stopped at the foot of the city, looking at the head of the Jindi Pass, but there was a trace of doubt in his eyes. He felt that something was wrong. I came east, but I didn't meet half of the Zhou army. At present, they have all arrived at the foot of Jindi Pass, but they only hear the dust, and they don't even see a scout, and the situation is strange.

At present, although their own soldiers are ready for battle, there is no sign of a large army coming to meet them in front of them, only the army stationed at Jindi Pass is in front of them, and the Zhou army in the north town has not the slightest sign of moving.
