Just when Li Jing deployed south to capture Shuofang City, it was just like the plot he had already guessed.

In the dark night, the mountain roads north of Puxian County leading to the three cities of Pingyi, Shizhou and Fangshan in the west of Jin are all the elite cavalry of Hedong galloping horses, and the leader of the army is Su Dingfang, and the person who accompanies Su Dingfang is Yongzaburo Wang Bodang. The six lieutenant generals who accompanied him were Wu Lie, He Lun, Ma Sanbao, Ma Zong, and the newly Puyang generals Dongfang Huang and Dongfang Bo. At this time, all the generals were on the hill on the side of the mountain road, watching their cavalry silently gallop through the horses, and the sound of horses' hooves like raindrops was heard far away in the mountains and forests.

"Brother Bodang, how far is this place from leveling? Will you be able to get there before dawn? Su Dingfang asked Wang Bodang beside him.

"General Su, it's not far from Pingyi here, less than 30 miles, and it will be there in an hour at most. However, Shizhou and Fang Shan are still far away, so let's not care about him first, and then talk about it after entering Pingyi. Wang Bodang replied.

"Have all the three cities been negotiated, and my army will open the gates of the city when the time comes?"

"This is nature, I do what I say in the green forest, and I will never regret it, and the general can rest assured."

"Good! I'll go into Pingyi City tonight, let's go! After that, Su Dingfang whipped his horse, and immediately blended into the army galloping forward, and the generals and guards behind him hurriedly patted their horses to follow.

Although it was already night, Xu Maogong and the others in Pingyi City were not tired, and they all followed Xu Maogong, Wei Zheng and Shan Xiongxin to the south gate of Pingyi City, and looked at the official road leading to the depths of the southern jungle in the dark.

"Second Brother Shan, since we have offered three cities as a gift for the audience, I wonder if Brother Bodang can lead the Hedong Army to come to take over the defense tonight? This should be sooner rather than later, then Li Jing is witty, and he has already seen that the location of my three cities is extremely important, so don't let him find out the news of our anti-water. Xu Maogong looked at the south and said softly.

"Brother Dao Chang, although rest assured, the gates of the three cities are guarded by our henchmen, and no one is allowed to enter or leave, how can the news of our return to Jin get out? The Boydam brothers made an appointment with a certain one to dedicate the city tonight, so just wait and see. Shan Xiongxin replied.

"Alas! I didn't know before! This celestial phenomenon is also chaotic, poor Dao can't see the general trend of the world clearly, thinking that when the Central Plains War, King Chitose of Jin has the intention of accepting us, otherwise he will not easily let me and the whole army return to Rencheng. When the kings of the Central Plains are wiped out, we should follow the example of the Jianghuai army of Du Fuwei, the Duke of Shanyang, to surrender the king of Jin, and it will not make it difficult for Brother Shubao. Poor Dao has long heard that Shu Bao had a great grace and the King of Jin Chitose, and it is precisely because Shu Bao has already formed a good relationship with the King of Jin that he made Luzhou Pei Shiju treat the second brother's Erxian Zhuang well, and I should have voted for the King of Jin Chitose a long time ago! Why come here to Jinyang? ”

"Shan Mou has also heard about Shubao Youen and King Jin, but he doesn't know the details. I heard Bo Dangxian brother say that King Jin had been to Licheng in the past year, and he met Luo Cheng at the time of Qin's mother's birthday, but I don't know who it is? ”

"Oh? If you have really been there, how can you hide it from the eyes of the poor road? After listening to Shan Xiongxin's words, Xu Maogong couldn't believe it. If a hero with the appearance of an emperor appears in front of him, how can he not notice it?

"Duke Mao, His Royal Highness King Xu deliberately avoided us at that time, just to celebrate Qin's mother's birthday to repay Uncle Bao's kindness! Do you still remember Yang Kuo, the person with the most birthday gifts? If the poor Dao guess is good, Yang Kuo is His Royal Highness the King of Jin, hehe! Second Brother Shan also started to fight with him, but he didn't please him. Wei Zheng said with a smile.

"Huh? Did Wei Daochang mean that the person who competed with a certain person at the banquet was Yang Guang, the king of Jin? I'm afraid that the Taoist chief has lost his eyes, that person seems to be a few years older than Shan! Shan Xiong said in disbelief.

"Huh! Whether it is or not? We'll find out soon. Xu Maogong said disappreciatively.

"Report ~ military division." While everyone was chatting at the head of the city, a waiting school came to the city.

"Say, what military intelligence did you find?"

"Back to the army, the villain found out that there were cavalry in the forest ten miles south of the city, and the identity and number are unknown."

"Oh? All right! Re-explore and report again. ”

After waiting for the little colonel to answer, he turned around and ran down the city tower.

"Brothers, the friendly army has arrived, you and I will go out of the city to pick it up!" Xu Maogong waved the Buddha dust in his hand and said to the people behind him.

Everyone immediately followed Xu Mao Gong downstairs, came to stand outside the city gate, and looked at the Jin cavalry who were about to appear in sight.

"It's Brother Bodang?" Shan Xiongxin saw a few figures in the distance and asked in a loud voice.

"Second brother Shan, Bodang is also here." Wang Bodang looked in the direction of the city gate, and could vaguely see a bunch of figures under three or two torches. I don't know who it is, but I suddenly heard Shan Xiongxin's familiar voice, and immediately became happy, and while responding loudly, he hurriedly whispered to Su Dingfang beside him: "Pingyi City has arrived, Shan Xiongxin and other brothers are all under the city to welcome us, and the person who shouted is Shan Xiongxin." ”

"Good! It's finally here. Su Dingfang also said with relief.

Wang Bodang was the first to come to the front, turned over and dismounted, and Su Dingfang and other generals behind him also dismounted and followed Wang Bodang towards the city gate.

"Second brother, Xu Daochang, Bodang is here. This is General Wu Tianxi of the Hedong Jin Army, General Su Dingfang, deputy general. ”

"Huh? Brother Bodangxian, didn't you say that you were going to bring General Luo Song of Pu County here? How could it be that General Wu Tianxi's army is here? Xu Maogong heard Wu Tianxi's name, and suddenly asked with a shock in his heart.

"Daochang Xu, the last general Su Dingfang was sent by General Wu Tianxi to Pingyi City to meet you and other heroes on the rivers and lakes, why don't you invite Su into the city for a drink?" Su Dingfang was originally born as a Jeju ranger, and he had long heard that there were names of heroes such as Xu Maogong on the rivers and lakes, and he was still very happy to finally meet today. After listening to Xu Maogong's words to Wang Bodang, he hurriedly stepped forward to greet the heroes and said jokingly.

Shan Xiongxin and the others all laughed when they heard this, and the scene changed from momentary embarrassment to extremely harmonious, and even Xu Maogong himself felt that what he was asking was funny, and he hurriedly stepped forward to greet Su Dingfang and the others.

"General Su, this big man is the most famous hero in the rivers and lakes, Shan Xiongxin is also." Wang Bodang introduced Shan Xiongxin to Su Dingfang, and Xiongxin hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

"It turned out to be the second brother Shan! It's better to be famous than to meet, if it weren't for last spring, the imperial court opened a martial arts field to recruit talents, and the younger brother went to Luzhou Erxian Village to vote for the second brother, and the second brother has always been good? Su Dingfang hurriedly stepped forward and brushed Shan Xiongxin, and said casually.

"Hehehehehe!" Su Dingfang's words narrowed the distance between the two sides and caused everyone to laugh openly.

In the dark, Wang Bodang was inconvenient to introduce them one by one, and Xu Maogong also knew that it was not appropriate to say more in front of the city gate, so he hurriedly stretched out his hand to invite Su Dingfang and other generals to enter the city. The army behind him rested outside the city and did not enter the city for the time being.

Soon, everyone returned to the brightly lit main hall of the mansion, where a reception banquet had already been placed, and everyone was seated separately.

"Brother Bodang, but General Wu Tianxi's 150,000 troops to reinforce Hedong have arrived? So soon, I waited here and didn't hear anything. Xu Maogong saw that everyone was already seated, and while the colonels of the Chinese army were filling up wine for everyone, he asked Wang Bodang beside him softly.

"Dao Chief, Second Brother, you still don't know, now General Wu Tianxi's army has already passed Puxian City, General Su personally led 30,000 cavalry for the front army to come to me to level first, at most within two days, General Wu Tianxi will lead the army here. The rear army of 100,000 led by General Hou Junji was on the way to Huo County, and the all-out war between the Tang and Jin armies was about to begin. ”

"Huh? Didn't you add another 250,000 troops to attack the Tang and Jin Dynasties? Shan Xiongxin was stunned when he heard this.

"Huh! Fortunately, I waited for the king of Jin, otherwise I wouldn't know that there were hundreds of thousands of troops around me! Cheng Yanjin eavesdropped on the three of them on the side and couldn't help laughing. As soon as he stirred up, Xu Maogong and the three of them were not able to talk privately, so they hurriedly raised their heads and greeted Su Dingfang and other generals.

"Huh! General Su came from afar, and I don't have much good wine in Pingyi City, so I ask the generals to have a drink. Xu Maogong got up and raised his glass with a smile and said.

"Huh! Xu Dao is too modest, we are all ordinary soldiers, if you have wine, how can you be picky, come, drink! Su Dingfang hurriedly got up and responded arrogantly, and then both the guest and the host raised their glasses and drank, and the scene gradually became lively.

"General Su, there is something unclear about the poor road."

"Oh? Chief, please. ”

"Now that the war in the capital has begun, the outcome is unknown. Although the Jin army has one million, there are hundreds of thousands of defenders in the capital. Even if Tang Duke Li Yuan took the opportunity to send troops to disturb each other, the Jin army in Hedong should also focus on defense and should not take the initiative to attack, so as not to fight on two fronts and be unfavorable to Hedong. My brothers and I originally wanted to abandon the three cities here and return to Luzhou, Hedong after voting for His Royal Highness the King of Jin, but they didn't want Wu Tianxi's army to come here, so they didn't want to occupy these three cities and cut off the return route of Li Jing's Tang army? If this is the case, wouldn't it trigger a full-scale war between the Tang and Jin armies? ”

"Huh! What Xu Daochang said is that the last general will be in the front, leading the 150,000 victorious army of Tang Bi into Hedong County, and it is precisely by the order of our lord to cooperate with Sima Pei Shiju of Hedong to attack Jinyang in an all-round way, and take advantage of Li Yuan's attack on my Hedong to kill Li Yuan and recover the entire territory of Jinyang. ”

"Huh?" Listening to Su Dingfang's sonorous words, Xu Maogong and the others were suddenly so shocked that they couldn't keep their mouths shut.

"Good! I won't leave later, so I will hold the three cities here, and divide the two armies of Li Yuan in Jinyang and Li Jing in Hetao, so that they can not help each other, and a battle can be decided. On the side, Wei Zheng saw that everyone was stunned and silent, and hurriedly spoke.

"May I ask the general, is this what Pei Sima means?" Xu Maogong hurriedly adjusted his thoughts and asked according to his friend Wei Zheng's words.

"This is not Pei Sima's intention, but a big plan set by my lord in Luoyang, otherwise it will be enough to resist Li Yuan's Tang army with the Hedong garrison!"

This wine can't be drunk anyway, and Su Dingfang's words made Xu Maogong and Wei Zheng, two wise people, unacceptable for a while, not to mention his brothers who were born as reckless heroes.

"Then, isn't it that the Jin army in Jiexiu, Huoxian, Yanmen and other places will attack Jinyang in an all-round way? The two fronts of Beijing and Jinyang, with the existing military strength, grain and grass, etc., can Hedong support it? Xu Maogong asked with some disbelief, this was completely different from the battle situation that he, Wei Zheng, and even Li Jing expected, it was originally Jinyang Li Yuan's side who took the opportunity to attack and take the initiative on the battlefield. How did it suddenly become a full-blown passivity now? This Jin King Yang Guang is really bold and novel, eclectic, and unexpected! This is completely out of the box? Isn't it time to show weakness to Jinyang and ensure the battle of the capital?

"Hehehehehe! Xu Daochang, Wei Daochang, the second brother and many heroes, since the Central Plains War, our lord will win the battle, and after the destruction of Shandong Tangbi, our lord has more than 2 million available soldiers, and captured countless ordnance and grain of the kings of the Central Plains, which is enough to deal with more than two major wars. How many soldiers does Jinyang Li Yuan have? He even divided his troops to rob my lord's Hetao, and Jinyang was even more empty, such a good opportunity, how could my lord turn a blind eye? As the saying goes, you can't live if you do your own evil! ”

"Hehehehe---" After hearing Su Dingfang's words, several adjutant generals of the army all laughed. On the other side, Shan Xiongxin and the other brothers were stunned, and even Cheng Yanjin, who had always been very arrogant, was stunned when he heard it, and forgot to chew the meat in his mouth.

"I'm willing to obey the general." Xu Maogong had no objections, so he had to get up and bow his hand and say convincingly.

"My lord has an order, secretly attacking the three cities of western Jin, cutting off the return route of Li Jing's Tang army in Hetao, and not allowing it to return to Jinyang Li Yuan is a complete victory."

"I'll do as I was told." Xu Maogong and the others got up together and answered.

"Good! Within two days, our Jin army will fully take over the defense of the three cities in western Shanxi, and I hope that all heroes will cooperate with our army. Come, have a drink! ”

"Dry ---"

"Hehehehehe! It's so refreshing--- to drink! During the banquet, there were staggered voices, regardless of you and me, and the two parties talked happily.

In the next two days, Wu Tianxi's army all came, in order not to disturb the Tang army in Jinyang and Hetao too early, although the Jin army took over the defense of the three cities, but the head of the city was still guarded by the Tang army of the original Xu Maogong, and all the Tang army banners were still not withdrawn.

Regarding the changes in the three cities of western Jin, Li Yuan of Jinyang and Li Jing of Hetao were completely unaware of the changes in the three cities of Jinyang, and the military rations sent from Jinyang to the Hetao area were still passing through these three cities.

On this day, not long after Xu Maogong, Shan Xiongxin and others were accompanying Wu Tianxi, Su Dingfang and others to inspect and return to the mansion, the city gate guards came to the mansion to report, saying that Chai Shao hurried back from Hetao.

After Xu Mao Gong got the report, he couldn't help but smile dumbly, looked at the second general Wu and Su and said: "It seems that the secret here can't be kept, then Li Yuan's son-in-law Chai Shao has gone outside the city." ”

Wu Tianxi listened and looked at Su Dingfang on his side, Su Dingfang smiled and said, "Hehe! What's the matter, I usually have nowhere to take him, but this guy has sent him to the door and let him into the house. ”

Soon, under the leadership of the Chengmen Colonel, Chai Shao stepped into the Pingyi Mansion alone.

At this time, Chai Shao had some doubts in his heart, and always felt that something was wrong with Pingyi City today, in the past, the city gate schools were all respectful and respectful to him, but today it was completely different, and there was a kind of ridicule and disdain in the eyes of the schools. The contrast between the days before and after is too great, and Chai Shao is quite puzzled by this. Bow your head and follow the lead Colonel into the hall.

Entering the mansion hall, Chai Shao raised his eyes and couldn't help but be shocked. The uniforms of the soldiers in the hall are not at all the costumes of the Tang Army, they are, they are---

"Huh? Who are you? Why are you wearing Jin army armor? Xu Daochang, this is ---" Chai Shao noticed at a glance that the atmosphere was wrong, and he who often went in and out of Hedong County instantly recognized that the officer in the Fuzhong was full of Jin army armor, so he hurriedly asked Xu Maogong.

"Huh! Brother Sichang, the so-called person who knows the times is Junjie, and I and other green forest heroes have all voted for the king of Hedong Jin for a thousand years now. This general is the famous invincible Wu Tianxi in my Great Sui Jin Army. ”

"Huh?" When Chai Shao heard the words like a lightning strike, he suddenly felt that his knees were weak, and he fell to the ground with a poof, raising a hand and pointing at Xu Maogong and other heroes of the rivers and lakes, "You, you, you ---" speechless.
