"Childe, the forward of the scouts who came to report the enemy has arrived at Lingzhi, and the number of about 30,000 is all Wuhuan cavalry led by Qiu Liju." Zhang Chao said to Tang Zheng.

"So fast, sure it's only 30,000 strikers?" Tang Zheng said with some unease.

"Well, it's definitely only Qiu Liju's 30,000 forwards, but they are all lightly armed and have never been heavy."

"What do you mean by this group of people, is it like relying on these 30,000 people to take down Xu Wu or Tuyin, he Qiu Liju also thinks too highly of himself." Tang Zheng said to himself.

"By the way, have you set up the trap I told you to set up?"

"Childe has been arranged."

"Well, since that's the case, it's good, you go and arrange a clever brother to keep an eye on it first, and see if the target of this group of people is Xu Wu or Tuyin." Tang Zheng instructed Zhang Chao.

"No, my subordinates will arrange it." After speaking, Zhang Chao turned around and went out. Tang Zheng asked someone to bring a horse, turned over on the horse and walked to the county office.

Tang Zheng came to the county government and saw that the county commander Jiang Chen was hurriedly preparing to go out, and when he saw Tang Zheng coming, he couldn't help but be surprised and said: "Tang Duwei, I was about to ask someone to invite you, but I didn't expect you to come first, please enter Gongsun Duwei has already arrived." After speaking, he walked to the hall with Tang Zheng.

Seeing Tang Zheng and Jiang Chen coming in, Gongsun Zhan hurriedly got up and said to Tang Zheng: "Brother Tang came really fast, I asked Lord Jiang to arrange someone to invite you, and you will arrive." ”

"Brother Gongsun laughed, I also just entered the courtyard and saw Lord Jiang in a hurry, and then I came in together, and Brother Gongsun also received the news?" Tang Zheng asked.

"Well, I received news from my subordinates, Qiu Liju and Zhang Chun are now dividing their troops to attack Tuyin and Xu Wu in two ways due to disagreement, Qiu Liju's target is Tuyin, and Zhang Chun's goal is Xu Wu." Gongsun Chan said.

"What Brother Gongsun said has been confirmed?" Tang Zheng asked with some surprise.

"It's confirmed, isn't this what Brother Tang said?" This time it was Gongsun Zhan's turn to be surprised, he thought that Tang Zheng also knew the news and came to the county office to discuss with Jiang Chen.

"Don't hide it from Brother Gongsun, I really don't know this, I received the news that Qiu Liju's 30,000 forwards have arrived in Lingzhi, as for the news of Zhang Chun and Qiu Liju's division of troops, I haven't received it." Tang Zheng also told the truth that the scouts under him had not been established for a long time, and he had not had time to install his own people within the enemy, so a lot of news could not be known at the first time.

"Qiu Liju's striker has arrived in Lingzhi?" At this time, Gongsun Chan and Jiang Chen were not calm, they didn't expect the enemy to move so quickly.

Tang Zheng looked at the two of them curiously, not understanding what was surprising about this. Seeing Tang Zheng staring at him and Jiang Chen curiously, Gongsun Chan couldn't help but smile and said, "Brother Tang, I only received the news that Qiu Liju and Zhang Chun were not in harmony and divided their troops, as for what you said about Qiu Liju's forward arrival in Lingzhi, I really don't know. This made Tang Zheng even more confused, he even knew the news of Qiu Liju's feud with Zhang Chun, wouldn't he even know the news that Qiu Liju's striker had arrived in Lingzhi.

Gongsun Zhan looked at Tang Zheng and knew what he was thinking, so he said: "Don't hide it, Brother Tang, this is the news I received last night, according to the people we arranged for Qiu Liju to report, Qiu Liju advocated attacking the mound, firstly, there were not many defenders in Tuyan, and secondly, I had dealt with Qiu Liju several times before, and Qiu Liju suffered several losses under me, so he felt that it was easier to capture the mound wall." Zhang Chun is different, I have some grudges with Zhang Chun, and it is not a big deal, the cause is that Zhang Wen and Zhang Taiwei were ordered to crusade against Bian Zhang and Han Sui, Zhang Chun recommended himself to Zhang Wen, Zhang Taiwei did not agree but appointed me as a general, Zhang Chun was dissatisfied with Zhang Ju of the same county and contacted Qiu Liju to rebel in one fell swoop, causing trouble in Liaoxi County and Youbeiping County, and Liu Zheng, the Taishou of Youbeiping, also died because of this. So I guess that Zhang Chun advocated attacking Xu Wushi and wanted to defeat me to prove that he was stronger than me, and also to prove that Zhang Wen didn't know anyone. Gongsun Chan said to Tang Zheng.

Tang Zheng didn't know that Gongsun Chan and Zhang Chun still had such a festival, and he couldn't think of how to describe Zhang Chun, I actually raised troops to rebel for my own selfishness, Zhang Chun used to say that he was also a county guard, and he once served as the minister of Zhongshan, and his energy was too small.

"What is Brother Gongsun going to do, after all, Zhang Chun still has an army of 100,000 under his command, and he is also a Han Chinese, and he also knows more about our defense of the city and the way of fighting. Since he dared to come, Xu Wu showed that he had a certain degree of certainty. Tang Zheng said to Gongsun Zhan.

"Well, compared to Qiu Liju Zhang Chun, this person is indeed much more difficult to deal with, Qiu Liju is a Hu man after all, and his subordinates are all cavalry, the strength of cavalry lies in field combat, and it is not as good as foot soldiers for siege cavalry." Jiang Chen, who had not spoken, said.

"For Zhang Chun, let's not worry too much, just say that he has 100,000 people under his command, but the infantry accounts for the majority, and there are not many cavalry. There are 3,000 cavalry in the cavalry, and there are 3,000 cavalry in the Tang commandery, plus the 2,000 Mo sword soldiers of the Tang Commander may not be without the strength to fight against Zhang Chun. ”

"Well, what Lord Jiang said is that Brother Gongsun's 3,000 cavalry are all tigers to deal with Zhang Chun's cavalry, and there are also my 3,000 cavalry, so Brother Gongsun, I will hand over the 3,000 cavalry under my command to you, and I will leave the former cavalry to guard the two wings of the Modao battalion, and Brother Gongsun also knows that the combat mobility of the Modao battalion is insufficient, and the safety of the flanks needs to be guaranteed, I don't know what you want, Brother Gongsun." Tang Zheng said to Gongsun Zhan.

"Then thank you Brother Tang, it's just that there are fewer people for Brother Tang guarding the city." Gongsun Chan said with some concern.

"Brother Gongsun rest assured, it doesn't have much effect on the cavalry defending the city, and leaving a thousand cavalry is also to ensure that the Modao battalion has the opportunity to go out of the city to fight."

"Well, that's the case, that's good. Brother Tang believes that I have put them in my hands, and I will not live up to Brother Tang's trust, and I will do my best to ensure their safety. ”

"Then if there is nothing to do, I will go back and arrange for people first, and then let them go directly to Brother Gongsun's camp to report."

"Well, that's it, does Lord Jiang have anything to say?" Gongsun Chan asked Jiang Chen.

"I don't have anything to say, so let's go about our own business first." After Tang Zheng and the two said goodbye, they went out and walked towards their camp.

Back in the camp, Tang Zheng called everyone, and everyone didn't know what arrangements Tang Zheng had, so they all looked at Tang Zheng.

Tang Zheng looked at everyone and said, "When I went to the county government to discuss things with Lord Jiang today, I heard a piece of news, and this news is good news for Rinshan City. Zhang Chun and Qiu Liju because of disagreement, now the troops have been divided into two ways to attack Tu Yin and Xu Wu at the same time, Qiu Liju's goal is Tu Yin, he does not know that there is a strong city in front of him, for the Hu people who are all cavalry, Rinshan City will be a big mountain in front of them, I think that those cavalry of Qiu Liju can not cross the walls of Rinshan City. Zhang Chun's goal is Xu Wu, so that our pressure will increase greatly, Zhang Chun is not only a Han man's subordinates but also a majority of foot soldiers, and he is also familiar with this set of our Han people, so I decided to transfer the second and third cavalry teams to Gongsun Zhan's tent to obey his command, I don't know what your opinion is? ”

"Childe, are you sure that Gongsun Chan won't use our people as cannon fodder?" At this time, Han Dang said, this is also the thing that everyone is most worried about, after all, it is not his own subordinates who sacrifice in vain.

"Don't worry, I don't think Gongsun Chan will be so short-sighted, and if you see something wrong, you can withdraw it first." Tang Zheng said to everyone.

"Since Brother Tang has said so, then let's go." Guo Mingda said.

"The two of you went to Gongsun Zhan's tent, don't embarrass us Rinshan, Brother Tang also said that if you don't meet the problem, you should withdraw quickly." Wu Yifan said.

"Well, Brother Wu is right, as long as you find something that is unfavorable to our own brothers, you will be the first to retreat, and ensure the safety of yourself and your brothers."

"Subordinates receive orders." Guo Mingda and Xu Dayou replied.

"You two go down and prepare first, and then I'll take you to Gongsun Zhan's camp." Tang Zheng said to Guo Mingda and Xu Dayou, and then the two of them were ordered to prepare.

"Zhang Chao, you go and pass the news to the eldest brother and let him get ready." Zhang Chao was also ordered to go out.

"Han, when you put the bed crossbow on the city wall, Cheng Mo, you prepare all the equipment to defend the city, Brother Wu check how many crossbow arrows we have, and let your cavalry match as many as possible."

"No" everyone was ordered to go about their own business, and watched everyone go out, and now everything was ready, just waiting for the arrival of the enemy.
