Just after the morning dew and when the warm sun shone on the earth, Lu Wenlong and Li Dian dressed in military uniforms, commanded 15,000 Wudang Flying Army with light attack equipment out of the camp, and went towards Yuan Shao's camp with great momentum.

In the previous battle of Wet Forest Mountain, Wen Chou chased Lu Wenlong for a long time not to mention that he bullied more and less, and also shot off a red pheasant tail of Lu Wenlong, which made Lu Wenlong unable to raise his head for a long time.

Lu Wenlong took the lead, led the soldiers and horses forward, saw Yuan Shaozhai from afar, and instructed Li Diandao: "Although the combat strength of the Tianwu Army is far inferior to our army, it should not be underestimated, Li Mancheng, you first led the troops to surround this mountain, cut off the water source, I led the cavalry to cover on the side, if Yuan Shao does not come out, forget it, if you dare to come out, I swear to repay the shame of the previous time!" ”

Li Dian also felt that this method was feasible, so he responded, raised a muddy silver gun, and scattered with most of the men and horses.

And Lu Wenlong was holding a spear and prancing on a horse, leading only two or three thousand war horses to gallop back and forth, showing off his might, in case Yuan Shao went down the mountain, until the afternoon, Yuan Shao still did not see Yuan Shao go down the mountain, so he divided one hundred and ten horses to sneak up the mountain to see what was going on.

At this time, a scout Pegasus came and reported loudly: "General, we waited all the way unhindered and were able to enter the Yuan camp, and the camp in front of it was empty!" There was no one in there! ”

Lu Wenlong was shocked when he heard this, only to feel that his vest was cold, and he hurriedly pulled the reins and stopped and thought to himself: Didn't they all go out to ambush?

Thinking of this, Lu Wenlong secretly said that it was not good, and hurriedly called his own soldiers and said: "Quickly go and inform Li Diancheng to gather troops and horses, don't be broken by Yuan Shao!" That's it, they all follow me to help, even if I am surrounded in broad daylight, I am not afraid of Yuan Shao's ten thousand people! ”

The sound of horses' hooves resounded, shaking the dust, Lu Wenlong took the lead, and persisted in the direction where Li Dian was.

"Wenlong, why are you back?" Li Dian heard the soldier's report, his expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly asked the adjutant general to command, and ran over to ask.

Lu Wenlong was even more surprised and asked: "The scouts found that Yuan Shao's camp was an empty village, I thought they were all out to do an ambush, I was afraid that something would happen to you, so I hurriedly came to support, but I didn't expect Yuan Shao to wait until this time?" ”

When Li Dian heard this, his mind changed and said: "Yuan Shao is afraid that he doesn't know that he is difficult to defeat us, so he abandoned the camp and fled back to Wuguan last night. ”

Lu Wenlong was speechless on the horse: "Yuan Shao only built the camp at noon yesterday, if he left at night, wouldn't he have only rested in it for a few hours?" Isn't this redundant? ”

Lu Wenlong and Li Dian entered the camp, and found that in addition to some freshly made wooden camps, even the tents were all clean, not to mention any grain and grass, and the two led the troops back to Jiang Wei's camp with a helpless face, and told Jiang Wei truthfully.

Jiang Wei summoned Cao Zhen and discussed with the four of them: "Tianwu has been defeated twice, and the morale has long been inferior to our army, today I have 250,000 elite northern expeditions in southern Xinjiang, vowing to take back my southern Xinjiang wing arm, and Yuan Shao still dares to go out of the pass and set up a nail in front of my southern Xinjiang army, is it not caused by the exclusion of Wuguan Wangba?" ”

Cao Zhen said: "Yuan Shao has lofty ambitions, there are many talents under his command, and the Yuan family also has a family business elsewhere. ”

"Yuan Shao is a person who can bend and stretch, and he is a masterpiece."

Li Dian commented on Yuan Shaodao: "I heard that Yuan Shao's late father Yuan Feng had been close friends with Mu Xian, Wang Ling, Liu Qiu, and Hao Jun, and now Marshal Wang and Deputy Marshal Liu have been missing since they were rescued from Tianyong by the Yue Commander and others, and on the contrary, Mu Xian is an official to conquer the general of Peking University, and he commanded more than 200,000 troops in the northern frontier, among which he is either a hundred warriors or the guards in Beijing, and this time he must go to Mu Xian!" ”

Lu Wenlong's delicate face was expressionless, and he said lightly: "Tianwu only Yuan Shao's Yan Wen and the two can be warriors, Zhang Ju can be generals, and the rest of the Tianwu Nine Tigers, Ji Ling's generation is just a person who does nothing, if Yuan Shao is as Boyo thinks, then with the thing invented by the lord, it will be easy to take Tianwu!" ”

"Zidan, you quickly order someone to inform the lord and General Zhao, this battle is related to the future of my southern Xinjiang, and the lord and General Zhao have made a big plan."

Jiang Wei instructed Cao Zhen and then said: "Wenlong and Man Cheng are also tired for a day, go back to the camp quickly to rest, the day of the big war is not far away, don't be weak when the war comes, I don't have the name of being a flying army!" ”

The people promised.

Half a month has passed since the dispatch of troops, and the left and front wing armies have made great breakthroughs and forced the pass to go down, while Jiang Qin's right wing army did not have too many soldiers and horses, Chu Yi did not let him attack the city and occupy the pass, but let him lead the water army into the Jingwu River and keep an eye on the movements of the Tianwu army.

The battle reports of the soldiers and horses from all walks of life were continuously transmitted at the fastest speed, and Chu Yi and Xi Zhicai were discussing all kinds of possible unexpected problems in the camp.

Since Xi Zhicai was cured, his body has become more and more hardened, and he is like two people when he first met, but although he has the help of Li Hui and others, he is still a little tired every day due to overwork.

"Li Deang has already transported all the materials and baggage to the front."

Xi Zhicai smiled and said: "Although that thing is difficult to carry, it will also be transported to Wuguan when my army arrives, and at that time, Wuguan can be broken in a snap!" ”

"Hahaha."

Chu Yi chuckled a few times, the tiger's body was shocked, and he said coldly: "Order the army to speed up, I want to recover the entire territory of Tianwu within half a year!" ”

Among the five road army, in addition to Huang Zhong's vanguard in the front, Gao Lan Yuexi 1st Road and Lin Chong 1st Road have already converged with the Chinese army, and Xiang Chong 1st Road has been slower to gather troops and horses than other roads, Chu Yi ordered Xiang Chong not to go from Tianhuang City, and directly from Yangchang County to Wuguan to converge.

At the beginning of February in the spring of the eighth year of Emperor Yong'an, Chu Yi's army arrived at the south gate of Wuguan, and the 200,000 troops were stationed at the south gate of the pass thirty miles, the villages were connected, divided into east and west, north and south, the tents were set up in an orderly manner, the sub-stations were in order, and the generals gathered together.

In the handsome tent, Chu Yi sat at the top, and the baptism of war in the past two years has made the once frivolous young man become stable and indifferent. Behind him stood Hu Che'er and Shanying's two generals, on the left Xi Zhicai and Li Hui next to each other, and on the right was the Third Army of Southern Xinjiang headed by Zhao Yun, Gao Shun, Hua Rong, Zhu Huan, Mu Guiying, Wen Ping, Mi Fang, and Meng Yu; In the middle is the First Army of Southern Xinjiang headed by Lin Chong, Gao Lan, Huang Zhong, Xiang Chong, Huang Xu, Huang Wudie, and Yue Xi.

"In this Northern Expedition, a total of 255,000 troops were sent out in southern Xinjiang except for the people, vowing to capture Wuguan and capture Tianwu! However, there are still 70,000 or 80,000 remnants of the defeated army in Wuguan, and Hao Jun also led about 100,000 horses from Zhulu to help, if you want to achieve a big victory, you still need all your strength! Chu Yi got up, waved his hand and said in a shocking voice.

The generals said in unison: "Dare not to work!" ”

"Lord, there is news from Boyo that Yuan Shao and his headquarters and more than 5,000 people in Guanzhong took the trail to secretly pass through Wuguan a few days ago, and they have disappeared!" Zhao Yunyu said.

"Although Yuan Shao has a plan, I am not afraid of southern Xinjiang, but now far away from the south, it is a disaster. However, Yuan Shao went north, although he could pass because there were no soldiers in Tianwu, but he had to pass through the land of Tianjing Tianyu Tianyan to go north, Cao Mengde and I were on good terms, and Zhicai could repair a letter to ask Cao Mengde to intercept Yuan Shao in the land of Tianyan and Tianyu. Chu Yi decisively said.
