The war in Bishui Pass is in full swing, hundreds of thousands of coalition troops, and more than 100,000 elite soldiers and horses in the imperial court.

The time is starting to move into April.

The weather is getting warmer and warmer, and this big war is accumulating.

And to the north of the Guanzhong battlefield, a war between the Ping Army and the Youzhou Army also kicked off.

East County, Hakuba County.

Dangyin County is located in the northeast of Hanoi, continuing to the northeast, is the Neihuang County of Wei County, which is the path into Hebei, and to the southeast, is Baima County of Yuzhou East County.

The roads in this era are not smooth, when the first emperor built the world gallop road, in order to connect the counties, after the Han Dynasty for 400 years of continuous construction, even if the official roads are hidden, barely able to maintain the connection between the counties.

The march is a large-scale march of soldiers, and only the official road is the best path.

If you want to go south to sour dates, you must go to the white horse.

It was evening when Jingping's army entered Baima County.

The county soldiers of Baima County were all transferred from Dongjun County and became part of the Yanzhou Army, and there were only more than 100 young men patrolling the county, and the Jingping Army naturally occupied Baima without destroying it.

"Shizi, there are only county commanders and county officials in Baima County, the two are civil officials and have been detained, and the county lieutenant led the Baima County soldiers to go to the sour date, in the county seat, there is only a chat about the soldiers, which is not a problem, but there are some private soldiers of the scholar clan in the city, and they need to be controlled well!"

Zhang Liaoyu reported.

"Then try to keep them under control!"

Mu Jing said: "From today onwards, the city gate is closed, no entry and exit, try not to let us enter the news of Dongjun to disperse, keep calm, we need time to go south, the more mysterious, the more unexpected!" ”

Although he knew that after the army entered Dongjun, the news might not be able to be hidden for a long time, but how long it could be hidden, it was better to hide it, if they could hide the information of the march before entering the Yellow River, they would win more than eighty percent of the battle.

"No!"

Zhang Liao gave up his hand.

"Shizi, how long will we stay in Hakuba?" Xi Zhicai asked.

"At least one day!"

Mu Jing replied: "In order to get out of Hanoi and out of Dangyin County, the soldiers of our army have consumed too much physical strength, and they must have enough time to replenish their physical strength!" ”

Although Dangyin County is an excellent hidden spot, the surrounding roads are too difficult to walk.

In order to get out, they went around and around but walked a lot of unjust mountain roads, and only then did they get out of Hanoi and enter Baima County, and they had to rest at this time.

"I'm afraid that we will stay here for too long and alarm the Youzhou Army!"

Xi Zhicai said worriedly: "Even if we close the city gate, but the three caves of the cunning rabbit, some local snakes in the city can still find a way to spread the news!" ”

"Let Zhang Liao keep an eye on it, it should be able to prevent it, as for the sour dates, Uncle should cover us at this time!" Mu Jing thought for a while and said confidently: "Let Shu Zhi's fifth battalion stay in Hanoi, just to attract attention!" ”

Chen Dao's fifth battalion is still in Hanoi, just in Chaoge, Chaoge is going south, but it is a sour date.

The orientation between them, the sour jujube is south of the Yellow River, Chaoge is north of the Yellow River, and Baima County is northeast.

Hiding the main force, from Dangyin to the east, into Baima, and then from Baima straight to Yanjin, this is a strategic deployment, if successful, it will break through the defense line of the Yellow River crossing without destroying the force, and directly enter the city of Sujuo.

……

Hanoi, Chao Song.

Chen Zhi is reorganizing the strength of the fifth battalion under his command, the fifth battalion fought in Chaoge, suffered heavy casualties, and now only two-thirds of its strength is not enough, and there are thousands of Hanoi prisoners guarding it, and the pressure is great.

"Lord Captain, Hanoi has captured more than 5,000 soldiers, this not only has to make our fifth battalion guard with all its strength every day, but it is a huge consumption in terms of food, so let's deal with it as soon as possible!" The ministry Zhang Shi arched his hand to request.

"I don't know!"

Chen Zhi also scratched his head, but it was not an easy thing to deal with these Hanoi prisoners: "You can't kill it, you can't collect it, it's really a trouble to deal with it like this!" ”

He sighed and said, "The most important thing is that the plan of the prince is beginning, but we can't move because of these captives, otherwise we can attract the sour jujube coalition army by pressing the Yellow River!" ”

For him, these prisoners are trouble, and the most important thing is that the strength of these prisoners is still above him, once the turmoil starts, even if it is suppressed, the fifth battalion of Jingping may have certain casualties.

The existence of these captives seriously affected the recuperation of the 5th Battalion of Jingping.

"Captain, I have an idea!" Zhang Shidao.

As the first batch of excellent martial arts students of Jingping Wubeitang, Zhang Shi is not only outstanding, but also has the right and left hands for Chen, and his thoughts are also influenced by the first priest of Jingping Wubeitang, some of his thinking is more sensitive.

"Say!" Chen Zhi's eyes lit up and said hurriedly.

"How about driving them to the battlefield?" Zhang Shidao.

"Rushing to the battlefield?"

Chen Zhi had a flash of inspiration, and his heart was a little moved: "This is a good idea!" ”

"However, I'm afraid that they will rebel!"

He thought about it for a while and said: "But don't be afraid, although the strength of our fifth battalion has not recovered, as long as there is defense, it is not that they can fight back, this is also an opportunity, we can't fight, they may be able to, in this way, it can be regarded as attracting the attention of the sour jujube coalition army and preparing for the surprise attack of the prince!" ”

As soon as he said and did it, Chen Zhi immediately recruited several Hanoi generals from the Hanoi captive army.

"You're having a hard time these days, why don't we make a deal!"

"Deal, what deal!"

Wang Fu stood up, although he was dressed in sloppy and tattered prison clothes, his burly body was still majestic, his eyes were a little cold, and the days of being trapped in prison did not wear out his spirit, and he asked rhetorically with momentum.

Wang Fu is the county lieutenant of Chaoge, and he is also a member of the Wang clan, he and Wang Kuang of Hanoi are cousins, and he was Wang Kuang's loyal general in the past, Wang Kuang was captured and sent to Luoyang, life and death are unknown, but there are many auspicious and less,

After he was captured, he was one of the best generals among the captives in Hanoi.

Several other generals, such as Li Wu, the lieutenant of Shanyang County, and Lin Cong, the former lieutenant of Wu County, all respected him as their leader.

"I will return all the soldiers in Hanoi to you, you lead the army to cross the Yellow River and attack the sour date, as long as you fight, after the first battle, you can survive, from now on, return your free body, if you die, your life is not good, how about it!" Chen Zhi got straight to the point, did not go around in circles, and directly stated the conditions.

Five thousand Hanoi prisoners, if they want to eat it in one bite, Jingping's fifth battalion will definitely collapse their big teeth, this is an unrealistic action, it can't be done in a short time, and it will waste the strength of his fifth battalion, and even make the fifth battalion chaotic.

And in order to guard these prisoners, his fifth battalion had to stand still.

He can't help the prince who led Jingping's main force to attack the war of sour jujubes, but he also has to do his best.

If you can attract the attention of the coalition forces of the sour jujube, it must be possible for the main force of the prince to attack Yanjin from the east more smoothly.

So he had to take a gamble.

"You want us to die?"

When Wang Fu heard this, his eyes were cold.

"Everything has a price!" Chen Zhi said eloquently: "You are defeated, you should live and die by me, I don't want to create murder, killing prisoners is always ominous, but let you go like this, I'm sorry for the soldiers who died in the war, so you want to be free, naturally do something, of course, I will not force you, you can continue to be prisoners, locked in the dark cellar, and wait until the day we run out of food, just starve to death!" ”

"How do I know if you're going to answer the promise!"

When several Hanoi generals heard this, they were all silent, and Wang Fu was also silent for a long time, gritted his teeth, and asked coldly.

In a lost war, the price to be paid is lives.

On that day, their Hanoi army rebelled, which was a business with their heads.

Now their Hanoi army has been defeated, and if they are defeated, they will have to bear the defeat and solve it, although Wang Kuang finally let them surrender, but they have become prisoners, and these days are not good, the food of the Jingping army is not very sufficient, and they have no meal, as if they are waiting for death every day.

If you can be free by gambling, even if you die on the battlefield, it is better than living in a dungeon like this.

"For you, the worst outcome is death, but the current situation of the Hanoi army is better than death, what are you afraid of, besides, you won't think that I have always wanted to imprison you, I can tell you, my Jingping army's food and grass are also very tight, and I can't afford to raise idlers!"

Chen Zhi shrugged his shoulders and said, "If I could, I would like to kill you directly, without consuming our food, so as long as you don't go against us, why don't I respect my promise!" ”

When several Hanoi generals heard this, they trembled, the first grain of this year was as big as the sky, and if Chen Zhi would kill them all because of the food problem, he absolutely believed that it would happen.

"Okay, I promise!"

Wang Fu gritted his teeth and replied, "But you can't let us fight the enemy with our fists empty-handed!" ”

"I'll give you the weapon, I can move as much as I can, and I'll try my best to move it, but don't get your hopes up, even if it's grass armor, there aren't many now!"

"I hope you don't play tricks on us, otherwise even if you turn into a ghost, I will never let you go!"

Wang Fu said coldly.

Everything was ready, and the five thousand Hanoi troops would go south to the Yellow River and cross the river into Suojube within three days, but at this time, a piece of news was sent by Jing Wusi's flying horsemen to the song and handed it to Chen Dao.

"Report to the captain, two days ago, Ji County was lost!"

"What, Ji County was lost, it was the Kwantung Coalition Army that attacked Ji County? They actually let the dare to enter Hanoi? ”

Chen Zhi was taken aback.

Ji County, less than 100 miles away from Chaoge.

He hadn't attacked yet, but the Kwantung Coalition couldn't bear it anymore, so he hurriedly asked, "Who is leading the troops?" ”

"Deputy General of the Youzhou Army, Liu Bei!"

"Liu Bei?"

Chen Zhi frowned, he had heard of this name a little, in the past, the Yellow Turban Army fought with officers and soldiers, and the soldiers and horses led by this one made the Yellow Turban Army suffer a lot of losses.

"How many soldiers and horses?"

"About 5,000 soldiers!"

Jing Wusi's spy said: "But our lord asked the captain to be careful, this person has two fierce generals under his command, who shine in Bishui Pass, and his second brother Guan Yu beheaded Hua Xiong, and the two of them fought with Lu Bu of the Xiliang Army without defeat!" ”

"Such a fierce general?"

Chen Zhi was taken aback, Hua Xiong heard his name, but he also knew that he was a first-class general, who could abuse three or five of himself casually, and those who could kill Hua Xiong were by no means good, and they fought with Lu Bu, that was Lu Bu, on the wedding banquet of the prince in the past, Huang Zhong had fought with a person, and this person was rumored to be Lu Bu, who was a fierce general on a par with Huang Zhong.

After getting the news, Chen Zhi immediately summoned the military marquis of the fifth battalion to come to discuss the matter, this news can reach him, and naturally it has also reached Mu Jing's hands, he is not worried about Mu Jing's main force, he is now worried about whether he can bear it.

After some deliberation among the generals, they have already come up with a countermeasure.

"Wang Fu, the plan has changed, you don't need to cross the river to attack, you just need to attack Jixian!"

"Ji County?"

Wang Fu frowned: "Who is in Ji County!" ”

"The Kwantung Coalition Army, the Youzhou Army, about 5,000 soldiers and horses!" Chen Zhi wanted to use the Hanoi army, and did not intend to use them as cannon fodder, but to use them as bait, so he explained the situation of the enemy army very carefully: "Among them, there are 1,000 cavalry and 4,000 foot soldiers, and the combat effectiveness is quite brave!" ”

"Youzhou Army?"

Wang Fu didn't care very much, he was in Hanoi, Youzhou was in the north, how loud the north was, it couldn't reach his ears, and it was a good thing not to cross the river to beat sour dates.

"My conditions are very simple, I don't need you to take Ji County, as long as you delay them for five days, you can withdraw and leave, and from then on, the Hanoi army is free, and you can each return to your respective county seats!"

Hanoi prisoners, a small number of county soldiers, and more county soldiers gathered from various counties.

"That's true!"

"I swear in front of my Jingping military flag, if I violate this oath, I will be punished by five horses!"

Chen Zhi said solemnly.

The Jingping military flag is the spirit of the Jingping army, and this black mandala battle flag represents the invincible fighting spirit of the Jingping army.

"Good!"

Wang Fu agreed.

"Zhang Shi, you lead the two soldiers and supervise the battle, but you must be careful and not slack!"

After that, Chen Zhi confessed to Zhang Shi.

The heart of defense is indispensable.

He himself didn't know what the Hanoi army would decide in the end, so he could only gamble on his luck.

"No!"

Zhang Shi received the order.

……

……

The news was quickly passed on to Mu Jing.

"Gongsun Chan is so bold!"

Mu Jing was still resting in Baima County, and when he received the news from Jing Wusi, the corners of his mouth outlined a sneer: "Relying on the invincible Baima Yifu with 8,000 subordinates, does it give him confidence that he can sweep Hanoi and attack Luoyang?" ”

"Gongsun Chan has this confidence, first, his soldiers are indeed very brave, it is rumored that the cavalry Bai Ma Yicong trained by him can compete with foreign cavalry on the grassland without defeat, this is the strength of the Central Plains, few people can do it, second, he can rely on Liu Bei's Guan Yu and Zhang Fei!"

Xi Zhicai analyzed the cavalry that gathered: "Before, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei fought Lu Bu under Bishui Pass, showing strong force, so that Gongsun Zhan has self-confidence, a Guan Yu, in the siege of the city, can be comparable to the array of ten thousand armies!" ”

"Guan Yu?"

Mu Jing's gaze was a little complicated.

Guan Erye, a saint in later generations.

For him, Mu Jing is even more respectful than Liu Bei, regardless of the authenticity of his deeds, just because he has been worshiped by later generations for so long, this is a memorable imprint.

But in this day and age, there is no doubt that they are enemies.

"Can Chen Zhi stop it?"

Mu Jing asked.

"Chen Shuzhi is a general who is good at taking advantage of all the conditions that are beneficial to him, he may not be able to win, but it should be no problem to delay the time!"

Xi Zhicai thought about it carefully and continued: "At this time, there is no point in returning to Hanoi, attacking it is not prepared for surprise, this is our strategy in itself, since they are pointing the direction towards Hanoi, it is more conducive to our forced crossing of Yanjin!" ”

"Yes!"

Mu Jing came to his senses and said, "I'm a little confused, isn't this the time for us to forcibly cross Yanjin!" ”

He stood up and immediately ordered the generals to be assembled.

Within a quarter of an hour, the generals of Jingping's battalions gathered.

"One hour to pull out the camp and go south, before sunrise tomorrow, I will arrive in Yanjin!" Mu Jing's military order was rough and simple, and there was no room for bargaining: "That battalion is dragging its feet, I will remove him from his position as a captain, Jingping does not need to be a useless general!" ”

"Yes!"

The generals shuddered, and immediately straightened their bodies and solemnly led the army.

When the public was about to prepare, Mu Jingcai and Xi Zhicai released the task.

"Zhicai, the most important thing now is whether the Hun cavalry can meet us, Baima Yicong is the northern cavalry after all, crisscrossing Youzhou, sweeping the desert, in the hands of Xianbei and Wuhuan have never suffered, it must be elite soldiers, elite cavalry, difficult to resist, only the Hun cavalry is available!"

Mu Jing said in a deep voice: "You personally went to guide Yu Fuluo, it's not that I don't believe in Yu Fuluo, but I have never cooperated with him, and I can't do the tacit understanding between the two soldiers and horses on the time difference, which requires you and me to cooperate!" ”

Two soldiers and horses, two different commanders, if they want to cooperate on the battlefield, this requires tacit understanding.

Mujing and Xizhi have a tacit understanding.

But with Yu Fuluo, very strange.

"If you throw me to the Hun camp, you won't be afraid that Yu Fuluo will eat me!" Xi Zhicai smiled bitterly, although he cooperated with the Hun cavalry, but these Huns did not necessarily talk about the rules, so he was afraid that one would not go well and directly clicked him.

"In principle, this kind of thing will not happen, but the Huns are always a little wild, and once this happens, I will pray for you!" Mu Jing said ruthlessly.

"Get out!"

Xi Zhicai said: "Knowing you is really my previous sin!" ”

In desperation, Xi Zhicai could only rush to the Hun cavalry camp less than thirty miles away from the march of Jingping's army, of course, although Mu Jing was ruthless, he still cared about him, not only gave him the Divine Guard Army for self-defense, but also transferred Zhang Huo out, as his personal guard, somewhat guaranteed.

……

After the main force of the Jingping army was assembled, they quickly marched south, marching like lightning, and at dawn the next day, before dawn, after a day and a night of marching, their main force arrived in a small town twenty miles away from the Yanjin ferry......

An attack on the Yanjin ferry is already on the line.
