Rushing to attack Hu Mu, mainly relying on cavalry to fight, Xin Er only ordered 200 foot soldiers, mainly to protect the baggage, and walk with the people.

Five hundred armor rides, one thousand Hu rides, and Xin Er didn't plan to take them all away.

He said that "Hu Qi is not familiar with the exercises, and he brings all of them, so it is better to choose his elite; The armor of the cavalry was too heavy, and the march was not fast, and if he was led by him, he would not be able to realize the order of the lord to 'speed up the soldiers'", so he selected 400 Hu cavalry and 100 armor cavalry, a total of 500 cavalry, to attack.

Fu Qiao felt that he had too few soldiers and horses, so he admonished him: "Although Qiao doesn't know soldiers, he only brings five hundred horses, is it a little less?" ”

Xin Er was full of confidence and said with a smile: "The map is only a thousand strong men, few armor, rabble, I will attack it with five hundred horses, and I will crush the eggs of Mount Tai." ”

"Isn't it the other way around? There are also two parts, Helugen and Lelie. And if the canal is reversed, it may also be reversed. ”

"The grass grows in late spring, it is a good time for grazing, and the herdsmen of the Hulu tribes are scattered on the pastures for hundreds of miles. I am attacking it now, like a wind and rain, scattering with sharp blows, capturing the thief and capturing the head, first breaking the main account of the Tubu, capturing the Tu chief, turning the attack and ditching, and then pulling out if I can; The art of war cloud 'moves above the nine heavens', how difficult is it to win! ”

Xin Er had sent a detailed work before, and had already found out where the main account of Tutu and Qu was.

"......, the general's words seem to be good."

Xin Er laughed and said: "Old man, you lead the county soldiers to guard the county, I will leave the sheep Changshi town camp, you two will guard the county for me, and wait for my good news!" ”

Fu Qiao saw that he was full of confidence, and Yang Fu didn't admonish, so he just said.

The barracks are in the south of the city, and the north must pass through the county seat of Lejuan.

In order not to alarm the city, at the fifth watch, he led the troops out of the camp; When he arrived at the outskirts of the city, he ordered the foot soldiers to cooperate with the people, and explained that the foot generals would go up the river and join him at the main account station of the Tutu Department.

The general commanded, and said in his heart: "Since you say that you don't want to alarm the city, why don't you lead the horse north first?" Gather the people again. The people lived, not far from the city, and hundreds of people were clamoring and shouting, for fear that they had already alarmed the city. ”

Looking at the dust that Xin Er led his troops to gallop away and hundreds of horsemen rolled up, he felt that Xin Er was thoughtless and shook his head.

Out of the joyful wind, the sky is bright, all the way to the northeast.

After traveling about 20 miles, Xin Er told the troops to rest, summoned the military marquis of the armored cavalry to come over, and instructed: "You lead your subordinate cavalry to the north to Huishui County, choke the two banks of the Heishui River Valley for me, and cut off the road to the north of the Lushui and Hu tribes." ”

The water will be in the northeast of Lechuan, on the west bank of the Heihe River.

Jiankang County is located in the central and western section of the Hexi Corridor, with Qilian Mountain in the south and Heli Mountain in the north. The north side of Heli Mountain is the desert, leading to the mountain pass in the desert, which is the only place in Jiankang County, which is the river of Heishui.

In other words, as long as the mouth of this river valley is cut off, the Lushui Hu tribes in the county will have no way to escape north.

The Marquis of the First Cavalry Army received the order and took the headquarters away.

Lan Baozhang and Bald Lian Fan are in the army.

Ballian Fan and Fu Qiao had an idea, before leaving the camp, he thought that Xin Er brought too few soldiers and horses, and at this time, Xin Er actually divided the most capable armored cavalry among the five hundred horses, he couldn't help it anymore, and he came to see the horse from this song, and said: "General, although the Tubu is a rabble, but it can also gather thousands of horses, we don't have many soldiers and horses, how can we divide the troops again?" ”

"Come here."

Bald Lian Fan didn't know why, so he came up.

"Take off your hood and bow your head."

Bald Lian Fan took off his helmet and lowered his head.

Xin Er stroked the black and green marks on his skull, and asked with concern, "Does it still hurt?" ”

Bal Lian Fan opened his mouth and stammered, not knowing how to answer.

Xin Er encouraged him and said: "This battle is fought well, and I will make a contribution, I will write to the middle of the court and give you the words in front of your military marquis!" ”

Lan Baozhang, Bal Lianfan, Qi Dali and other Hu cavalry officers, who had no military exploits before, were led by them, just because they were just small rates, so they were given a "line" in front of their military positions, and they are only acting at present.

The four hundred Hu cavalry rested for half an hour, and Xin Er gave the order to continue walking.

In this way, he walked for more than 100 miles in the evening of the next day and arrived at the shore of the black water.

He didn't cross the river immediately, stayed overnight, and ordered him to cross the river.

At this time, not only Bal Lianfan, but Lan Baozhang and other officers and soldiers were already suspicious, and they couldn't understand what medicine was being sold in Xin Er's gourd.

But soon, they knew.

I didn't go too far across the river, and I saw more than ten horsemen rushing over.

At the head, it was Zhang Jingwei.

Lan Baozhang, Bald Lian Fan and others were all surprised, but they saw that Xin Er was about to go up.

Zhang Jingwei jumped off the horse, and he didn't know what to say to Xin Er.

Xin Er beckoned to the back of the army, signaling Lan Baozhang and Bald Lianfan to come over.

The two of them hurried over.

Xin Er's expression didn't change much, and he said lightly: "Ba Ruoneng has been captured." Yang Changshi, Yan Governor, Xiang Cao Peng and others led troops to attack Tutu. Lao Bald, you lead your headquarters, follow Zhang Sima, and escort the captured Hequ people back to the county. Lao Lan, you go from me to Huishui County. ”

Lan Baozhang and Bald Lian Fan were taken aback.

Lan Baozhang said: "If you can pull it, how, sheep, how can you ...... the history of the sheep?" "I was so shocked that I couldn't speak.

"I'll tell you more about it on the way."

Xin Er and Lan Bao led two hundred horsemen along the river to the northwest.

Bald Lian Fan led the remaining 200 horsemen from Zhang Jingwei to the station where the head of the canal department led the account.

He was also puzzled, and asked Zhang Jingwei what was going on on the way.

After listening to Zhang Jingwei's explanation, I knew:

A few days ago, after Zhang Jingwei killed the two Hu slaves of the Zhang family, Xin Er guessed that with the prestige of the Zhang family in the county, he would not be indifferent, and Bacheng would retaliate, so he secretly ordered Yang Fu and sent a few astute soldiers to disguise themselves and monitor the movements of Zhang's house day and night.

Zhang Jin first looked for Zhang Gui that day, and then summoned Zhang Daojiang to go home, and sent people out of the north of the city to Huzhong that night, Xin Er knew about it later that night. Soon after, the matter of Yuanguang and Zhang Jin's correspondence was also reported by the monitors.

Although because he only monitored Zhang's house, the outside of the city was open, and the prisoners could not follow him for a long time, Xin Er could not be sure which part of the Hu people Zhang Jin was in contact with, and only guessed that it should be attached to his door and the canal department, but then, he received a report that Zhang Gui went to Shi Liang's house, and then the next day, Shi Liang said that the canal would be reversed; Combining these things together, Xin Er didn't take much effort to judge three points.

First of all, the other party who contacted Zhang Jin should indeed be the Qu Ministry.

Secondly, there is no rebellion, at least if Ba Ruoneng has not yet made up his mind to rebel.

Again, and there are people in the canal who want to pull out Ruo Neng, so they coax themselves, their intention is nothing more than to provoke themselves to kill Pingluo, so as to prompt Ba Ruo Neng to no longer hesitate and finally raise troops.

After a short period of thought, Xin Er decided to make a plan.

The letter he handed to Huang Rong said that it was addressed to Ba Ruoneng, but in fact it was not, it was addressed to Huang Rong.

Huang Rong acted according to the instructions in the letter, did not kill Pingluo, and sent him to the military camp.

Xin Er rushed back to the barracks and told Yang Fu and others about the Zhang family, Shi Liang, and Pingluo.

Yang Fu asked at the time: "Since the general has judged and Qu has not yet decided whether to rebel, why don't you return Pingluo to Ba Ruo Neng to show his gratitude and strengthen his heart of not rebelling?" Why did he pretend to kill Pingluo instead? Isn't this forcing the uprooting to rebel? ”

Xin Er replied: "It's not me who forced him, it's someone in his department who deliberately forced him." I expect that the person who forced him to do the opposite, because he wanted to do the opposite, must be against the imperial court's policy of restricting Hu. Today, even if I return to Pingluo to pull out the ability, and the strategy of collecting Hu cannot be stopped, so that it will be over, and sooner or later there will still be chaos. Instead of waiting for it to cause chaos, why not take the opportunity to destroy Tutu and take it down as well? ”

After thinking about it, Yang Fu and the others thought so.

Xin Er was determined to fight it together, and there was another reason, he thought in his heart: "I hoped that I could do it with a friendly person, but now I have to fight." If you don't fight, you will fight, and if you want to fight, you will simply fight. A diagram is a hit, plus a and a ditch is also a hit. The king ordered me to 'draw one out of five', and the herdsmen of these two tribes accounted for sixty and a half of the water hu in the county, and I will defeat these two departments, not to mention all the internal migration, which is enough to complete the task, and it will also be conducive to my policy of collecting Hu. ”

He arranged the deployment of Yang Fu, the cavalry general and others, issued a military order, and said: "I only brought five hundred horsemen out to beg, and said to the outside world that it was a Tutu department; After I am gone, you will lead the rest of the thousand horsemen, take Pingluo, quietly go out of the camp at night, and march all night, and go straight to the tent where Ba Ruo can be stationed, show Pingluo and him, move his heart, and after the capture, then turn to attack Tutu. ”

Therefore, after Xin Er left the camp, the night before yesterday, Yang Fu, the cavalry commander, Xiang Kui, Zhang Jingwei and others led the remaining thousand horsemen out of the camp, circumnavigated and crossed the river, and attacked the main tent of Ruo Neng on the ground.

Just as the general who walked with the people thought, the news of Xin'er's battle soon spread throughout the city. As soon as Zhang Jin inquired, when Huang Rong deliberately leaked it, he immediately found out that Xin Er only brought 500 cavalry and was going to attack the Tubu; Zhang Jin sent a doorman who was good at riding to follow Xin Er from afar, and at the same time hurriedly sent people to deliver a letter to Ba Ruoneng and Yuan Guang. Ba Ruo Neng knew that Xin Er had "killed" Pingluo, made up his mind to rebel, and when he heard the news, he summoned the herdsmen scattered all over the country and planned to rush to Tutu's aid.

Before his men and horses were gathered, the sheep came down from heaven this morning, and arrived at their station.

The sheep and the cavalry governor will set aside their armored horses and line up in the west; Zhang Jingwei and Xiang Kui each led more than 200 horses, outflanked from the left and right; The beggar vigorously led the cavalry to attack from the east.

For a time, there were war drums and shouts of Tang soldiers in all directions.

More than 1,000 people who had not been gathered from all over for a long time, most of them had not woken up yet, and when they heard the sound, they went out of the tent and saw that there were enemies all around, and they panicked, and suddenly they couldn't even find their horses, let alone fight.

Ba Ruo can be dressed and barefoot, staggered out of the tent, and at the moment of panic, he suddenly saw Pingluo appear in front of the Tang soldiers' iron cavalry, and his mind was in turmoil, and he didn't know what to do.

Yuan Guang entangled more than ten cronies and warriors in armor, howling and galloping forward.

The cavalry governor will be severely attacked and experienced in a hundred battles, but he is a cavalryman, and he has been promoted step by step by virtue of his military exploits, and this cavalry governor will be genuine; The soldiers he commanded were also the elite of Dingxi, how could he see Yuanguang's dying struggle?

I didn't care about it, but after hearing someone say that it was the second son of Ba Ruoneng, he ordered seven or eight horsemen to go out to fight.

More than 20 enemies and I rode each other, and they passed by the horses.

The two could not be combined, most of Yuan Guang's men were lost, and only two of the first riders were injured.

A rode around and charged again, and the remaining Yuanguang cronies scattered and fled.

A horseman caught up with the fleeing Yuanguang, grabbed the lance with his right hand, stretched out his left hand, grabbed his arm, and dragged him sideways to his saddle. Yuanguang shouted, but he was short and thin, and he couldn't get out, and was taken back to the front of the Yan Attack Formation by this knight and thrown to the ground. Someone tied him up.

Pingluo did not die, and Yuanguang was captured; And the canal has been besieged.

Ba Ruo Neng had no master of the six gods, listened to Koji Zhu's timely advice, and ordered to surrender.

After listening to Zhang Jingwei's narration, Ballian Fan smacked his tongue and exclaimed, "General Ming is like a god!" ”
