"Inform the army to camp in Luokoucang tonight, and let the generals come to the main account to discuss the matter!" After a whole day's journey, the troops were basically foot soldiers, and it was already very fast to have this kind of marching speed.

Cheng Yanjin and Zhang Xutuo took Luokoucang back on the first day of the army, leaving only a small number of men and horses to wait for the army, and directly broke into the hinterland of Luoyang.

By the time the army had finished camping, it was already completely dark after Li Jing and the others rushed over from the front ten miles.

"Summoning everyone over, I want to explain again, don't think this king is verbose, but Luoyang's strength is far stronger than we know, so this king once again reminds you not to take it lightly, if Wang Shichong is not a little prepared, this king will not believe anything!" Yang Xuan said with a serious face, he wanted everyone to pay attention to this war from their hearts, otherwise they would suffer.

"Entering the Luokoucang realm is considered to have entered Luoyang's sphere of influence, so everything needs to be cautious, don't venture in!" If Yang Jun was Wang Shichong, he would definitely not let a large army run rampant on his own territory.

"Yes, subordinates remember!" Seeing that Yang Jian said seriously, everyone also put away their contempt.

The night was calm, and the next morning, a large number of scouts were sent out, and the march of the army slowed down. The army is taking the official road, and such a large army can't hide if it wants to, so it is better to attack it directly in the open.

"Are there no defenders?" Yang Xuan thought suspiciously when he heard the news from the scout and Li Jing, and there was no news from Feihong's side. If there are no defenders in the general county town in peacetime, it will be forgotten, and now the city will not be defended in the special period, then it can only explain two problems, first, Wang Shichong shrank all his troops to Luoyang; The second is that Wang Shichong is carrying out a conspiracy.

If Yang Jian is given to defend, then he will scatter his forces and send troops to garrison in every city and place, so that it is impossible for the attacking side not to attack one city and one pool, if not to attack directly into the hinterland, then once the peripheral forces are gathered, they can come to an internal and external combination. Of course, if the enemy army attacks one city and one pool, then there is no need to defend to the death, and destroying the enemy's living force is the king. It stands to reason that Wang Shichong could not have known this truth, could it be said that he did not personally lead the troops as in history, resulting in lack of experience?

"No, Wang Shichong is so simple that he still deserves so much attention? Destroy the living forces. By the way, hum, Wang Shichong has a good calculation. Yang Jun suddenly had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and instantly understood Wang Shichong's plan.

"Go tell General Li and let him ignore this, just march, and find General Luo and them by the way!" Knowing Wang Shichong's plan, it's easy to do, isn't it easy to see the move? Unless Wang Shichong comes over in person.

"You are so ......" After Luo Shixin and his party arrived, Yang Yan made arrangements.

"Yes, mission guaranteed!" Hearing Yang Jun's arrangement, everyone smiled heartily.

In an inconspicuous forest in Xingyang County, there were some soldiers in full armor lying around, some of them gathered together and whispered.

Suddenly, a horse rushed in.

"How's it going? Is it clear? A general-looking man asked eagerly.

"General Hui, everything has been investigated, and the enemy army did not pay attention to those unsuspecting cities at all, and went directly to the eastern capital."

"What? They didn't even occupy it? "This general felt very strange, under normal circumstances, attacking the city and grabbing the land, and encroaching on the other party's forces step by step is the mainstream of the war in this era, and it is very rare to go directly to the main goal of Luoyang like Yang Xuan and ignore the outer cities, unless he has the certainty of winning the battle, otherwise he will repeat the mistake of Yang Xuangan and be besieged by the inside and outside. However, these are not what he is considering, what he wants to consider is that Yang Mian's troops occupy these cities, so it will not achieve the effect of weakening, and they came out to drink the northwest wind for two days, which is considered to be in vain, and with the combined strength of these peripheral cities, they can't sneak attack Yang Jun's Qingzhou army from behind, so he has a headache.

"Yes, they didn't even enter the city, only some people went into the city to investigate, and then left. But my subordinates heard an important piece of news! The man said mysteriously to the general.

"What's the news?"

According to a nearby hunter, he saw troops of about 10,000 people escorting thousands of cars and horses from a small road in the direction of the eastern capital. Although they walked secretly, but after the investigation of several subordinates, they found that the cars were full of grain and grass, looking at this posture is estimated to be the Qingzhou army for nearly a month, if ...... "If he didn't say anything clearly, but the general could hear the meaning of the words.

"Go and inform the rest of the people, tell them the news, let them pull all the people over, and we will concentrate on eating the fat that has been brought to our mouths!" The general pondered for a moment and then suddenly made a bold decision. So much grain and grass are only escorted by 10,000 people, so it can be seen that this grain army is definitely not to be underestimated. But even so, if there are tens of thousands of horses and horses and they are ambushed in advance, then they may not be able to eat it, so the general feels that he should take this risk, and if he succeeds, maybe the siege of Luoyang can be solved.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that as long as he had this idea, he would fall into the trap that Yang Jian had prepared for him. Yang Jun told Luo Shixin that they were sending a group of men and horses to pretend to be a grain transport force, of course, in order to pretend to be more realistic, one-third of the car was filled with real grain and grass, if the enemy could not take it by force, Yang Jin would lose a lot of losses if he attacked Yang Jun with fire, but to be able to destroy these people, Yang Jin was still willing to pay this price.

Yang Jian sent Yang Fan to lead the Black Dragon Army and seven thousand foot soldiers as bait, taking away a part of the improvised grenades and a large number of bows and arrows, once there was a collision, they needed to support an hour or more Yang Yong to complete the encirclement of those people to come to the rescue, after all, the army was too close to be easily discovered by the enemy's scouts, so their mission this time was very dangerous, and they couldn't run, and they had to "swear to the death" to defend the grain and grass.

There are no mountains and mountains in Xingyang County, but there is no shortage of ordinary hills, Yang Fan led an army of 10,000 bait walking on a hill path, this situation is very dangerous for them, once the enemy has an ambush, they can't hold an hour anyway, and these "grain carts" can't be pulled up the hills, so Yang Fan hopes to get out of here quickly, at least to hit a relatively open area.

"Report to the general, there is an open space ahead where you can be stationed, and there is a small spring, and the fish in it have not died!" A scout came back to report.

"Order the army to speed up! Hurry up and get there! Yang Fan decisively ordered, it has been a lot of time since he entered this hill, and the enemy is almost ready to make a move, otherwise he will go out of this path. This was the place that Yang Xuan deliberately chose, and after the news spread, the enemy army had a movement and was immediately monitored, so he knew that the enemy army was watching them from a short distance.

"Hey, why didn't they leave? Did you find us? A general looked at Yang Fan's grain transport army, which immediately stopped advancing after arriving at the clearing, and muttered puzzledly.

"It's impossible, if they wanted to find out, they should have been tired, just rest here for a while to replenish water." Another said.

"I knew that I would put some ** in that spring, so it would be much easier." One person said with emotion.

"Nonsense, if you put ** in it, the enemy won't find out? Where will it be drunk? Isn't this a reminder that there is an ambush? Why don't we deal with them on the road ahead, and give them water here? It's not just to get them to let their guard down, and when they're rested and back on the road, we'll surprise them and give them a surprise attack! That would do more with less. The general who first discovered the movement of Yang Fan's army said that it was absolutely not suitable for a surprise attack under the condition that people were highly alert, and it would be much easier to wait until a person was completely relaxed. It's just that he didn't expect that Yang Fan had already known that they were ahead, he quietly ordered the troops to enter a state of alert, make every effort to recover their strength, and used the "grain cart" to build a defense, Yang Yan told him that even if the grain and grass are not guaranteed, the loss of personnel must be minimized.

"That's not right! How did they rest for so long? Not good! They know we have an ambush here! Attack! The general suddenly found that all the resting soldiers were holding their weapons tightly in their hands, and knew that they had been discovered, but for some reason there was no movement, could it be that someone had already been sent to ask for help?

"Attack!!"

"It's finally coming!" Yang Fan looked at the figure that had shaken the shouting and killing sound in the mountains, and his heart was put down.

"Prepare to defend yourself against the enemy! The Black Dragon Army got on their horses to stop the enemy from rushing in, and the rest of the soldiers took bows and arrows! Yang Fan commanded the deployment of troops unhurriedly.
