Near the dawn of the third day, Yuan Yao finally led his army to the outside of Hefei City and lurked in Jiming Mountain, not far from Hefei City.

Jiming Mountain is located on the west side of Hefei City, Zheng Bao's army will not pass through here when marching from Chaohu, so there is no need to worry about being found in ambush by Zheng Bao's army and startling snakes; Moreover, Jiming Mountain is not far from Hefei City, and when Zheng Bao's army attacked the city, Yuan Yao could lead his army to outflank his rear road extremely quickly and cut off the passage between his army and Shi Shui.

Jiming Mountain covers an extremely wide area of mountains and dense forests, and the location is very suitable, very suitable for Tibetan soldiers, Yuan Yao and Pang Tong after the two discussed, they chose this place as the ambush place of the army.

After the army entered the mountain, Yuan Yao finally breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Hefei will divide its troops to Xiquyang this morning, Zheng Bao's troops and horses must have been impatient to wait in Chaohu for many days, I expect them to attack Hefei at night tonight." Zaixing, Zhongmiao, the two of you go and arrange for the army to camp and seize the time to rest and recuperate for tonight's battle. ”

"No, I'll wait for the order, I'll go here and make arrangements."

Yang Zaixing and Huo Jun bid farewell to Yuan Yao to arrange camping, Yuan Yao thought for a moment, and said: "Shiyuan, you will send someone to the city to inform Yuan Li later that our army has been ambushed in Jiming Mountain, so that he can rest assured that he can divide his troops, and the speed of the three thousand soldiers and horses does not need to be too fast. Let him send a person who is familiar with the situation here and the military situation of Zheng Bao's troops to see me here, and ......, let him send the Zhang Dingbian he said last time, this person has personally investigated Zheng Bao's camp and is familiar with the terrain of Chaohu Lake, so he should know more. ”

Pang Tong bowed down and said: "No, the minister receives the order, and after dawn, he will send someone to pass the order, the lord is tired all the way, so let's rest for a while." ”

"Well, I'm tired of Shiyuan."

Yuan Yao was already exhausted after two nights of traveling, but after a while, he fell asleep deeply against a big tree.

"Lord, lord,...... Lord ......"

Yuan Yao didn't know how long he had been asleep and opened his eyes in a daze, at this time the sky was already a general, Yuan Yao sat up and saw Pang Tong standing in front of him with a middle-aged man, this person was more than seven feet tall, wearing a black samurai uniform, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and a dignified appearance, which seemed to be extremely heroic and domineering.

Pang Tong saw Yuan Yao wake up and said: "Lord, the minister has sent a military order to General Yuan, and Hefei has divided 3,000 troops to go north to Xiquyang, this is Zhang Sima sent by General Yuan." ”

When the middle-aged man saw Yuan Yao wake up, he bowed down and said, "Sima Zhang Dingbian of the other department of Hefei will meet the lord!" ”

Yuan Yao didn't expect Zhang Dingbian to join his command, and asked suspiciously, "Huh?" ”

Zhang Dingbian explained: "General Yuan remembered the merits of his subordinates to report the military situation, and appointed me as the Sima of the Hefei County Division, so that I could lead the township to monitor Zheng Bao's army nearby. ”

Yuan Yao nodded and smiled: "Well, this arrangement is good, I didn't expect Yuan Li to have the ability to know people, with Zhang Sima to help, even if I don't lead the army to support, I expect Hefei to be safe and sound." ”

Zhang Dingbian didn't expect Yuan Yao to value him so much, and hurriedly bowed: "The lord has won the award, and his subordinates dare not accept it!" ”

With Zhang Dingbian's other department, another short board of his plan can be plugged, now let's see if this Zhang Dingbian is as capable as in history!

"Alright, get up." Yuan Yao thought for a while and said, "How many soldiers and horses do you have now?" What is the situation of the soldiers and horses, and is it worth using? ”

Zhang Dingbian smiled proudly and said: "Returning to the lord, there are now three hundred sergeants and thirty clippers under his command, but most of these clippers are transformed from fishing boats, and the sergeants are all people in my township, who have been fishing in Chaohu Lake for generations, and have also fought with water thieves in ordinary times. ”

Yuan Yao can only believe in Zhang Dingbian's ability now, and said: "I think you should already know the deployment of my army, I expect that Zheng Bao will lead the army to leave Chaohu Lake and attack Hefei at night tonight." It is inconvenient for my army to not have a navy, and I want to annex Zheng Bao's subordinate ships and use this as a basis to train a navy. After Zheng Bao's army entered Shishui, I want you to cut off the retreat of his army from Chaohu Lake and leave all the ships under his command in Shishui, I wonder if you can complete this? If you can cut off the retreat of his army and leave all the ships of his army in Shishui, you will be the first to do this! ”

Zhang Dingbian listened to the big cake that Yuan Yao painted for him, and his heart was excited, there was no navy and no navy general under the lord's command, if he could make the first contribution in this battle, then he would ......

Zhang Dingbian squinted his eyes and thought for a long time, Yuan Yao did not urge him, Zhang Dingbian finally bowed again, and said: "Lord, there is a place called Qinggou Stream fifteen miles east of Hefei, and the river is extremely narrow here, and both sides of the river are three or four zhang high cliffs, please send a thousand archers to set up an ambush on the cliffs on both sides of here, and the subordinates will stop his army here for the lord!" ”

Yuan Yao didn't expect Zhang Dingbian to have an idea so quickly, and said, "Oh? How sure are you that this will be done? ”

Zhang Dingbian smiled proudly: "My subordinates are ten percent sure that they will complete this matter, and if they don't succeed, they will die!" After the sailors fled, they also asked the lord to send troops to clear the ditch and stream to receive the prisoners and ships. ”

Seeing that Zhang Dingbian was so arrogant, Yuan Yao laughed a few times and said, "Hahahaha, good!" That general will wait and see, if you complete this work, then I will leave the matter of organizing and training the naval army to you! ”

Zhang Dingbian also laughed a few times and replied: "Then the subordinate thanked the lord first!" ”

"Well, you go back and prepare first, and always pay attention to the movements of Zheng Bao's army."

"No, the last general will take the order, and he will live up to the trust of the lord!"

。。。。。。

Yangzhou, Chaohu Lake, Nameless Island, Zheng Bao Daying.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, a middle-aged man with a full beard and a strong body bowed to a slightly heroic and arrogant ironclad man who was sitting on the top seat, and bowed his hand and said: "Big brother, confirm the news, that Yuan Yao has personally led the army to leave Shouchun and go to Xiquyang to find Lei Bo and Chen Lan for a decisive battle, and Hefei has also divided 3,000 troops to help in the battle, and now the 3,000 soldiers and horses have left the city for more than 20 miles." Now that there are only 2,000 defenders in Hefei City, the opportunity we have been waiting for has finally come! ”

After the man finished speaking, another man dressed in his usual clothes with a gloomy face also said: "Big brother, I think many things are right, and now is the most suitable opportunity. Our three parties combined have 20,000 soldiers and horses, and under a surprise attack, how can we attack Hefei City, which is only defended by 2,000 soldiers and horses. Big brother, let's send troops! ”

The big man in iron armor was Chaohu Zheng Bao himself, Zheng Bao pondered for a moment, and said: "Brother Zhang Duo, Brother Xu Qian, since you all think that you should send troops, then I will no longer hesitate, let the brothers eat and drink enough and wait for two more hours, and after dark, they will attack Hefei at night along the water!" After tonight, this Hefei city will be enjoyed by our three brothers! ”

"Hahahaha......"

Two hours of time flew by quickly, Zheng Bao left 500 soldiers and horses to guard the camp, so that the rest of the soldiers and horses all boarded the warship, 20,000 soldiers and horses will be more than 500 large and small ships full, after the army boarded, Zheng Bao's army fleet immediately swept away from the nameless island and went straight to Hefei at a very fast speed.

Zheng Bao's army left Chaohu Lake from Shikou and entered Shishui upstream.

After Zheng Bao's army left for a while, dozens of small boats came out of the reeds around Shikou one after another.

However, although these boats were small, the waterline was extremely deep, as if they were loaded with something, and after the boats gathered together, they also went upriver into Shishui and followed Zheng Bao's army.

Although Zheng Bao's army was going against the current, there were many sergeants on the ship who could take turns paddling, so the fleet was extremely fast, and after the army entered Shishui, it only took more than half an hour to come to the side of Hefei.

Zheng Bao left 1,000 soldiers and horses to guard the ship, and ordered the rest of the army to disembark and assemble, and then went straight to Hefei City to kill.

……

Jiming Mountain, Yuan Yao camp.

Yuan Yao expected that Zheng Bao would lead the army to attack Hefei at night tonight, and he was ready to send troops at any time after dark.

"Good! The big fish has finally taken the bait! ”

Yuan Yao turned over his horse and said, "Yang Zaixing, you lead three thousand iron horsemen to cut off the back road of Zheng Bao's army, and then rush to kill; Huo Jun, you led 7,000 infantry with me straight to Hefei to attack the flank of Zheng Bao's army; Shiyuan, you lead a thousand infantry to sit in the camp and wait for my good news; Pass on my military orders, and the army will attack! ”

"The lord has an order, send troops!" Yuan Yao gave an order, and all the armies rushed towards Zheng Bao's army from two directions.

When Yuan Yao led the army to the vicinity of Hefei, Zheng Bao's army had already begun to attack the city and fight the defenders, after all, there were only 2,000 soldiers and horses in Hefei City to defend such a big city, it was really a bit thin, 20,000 bandit troops had already climbed the city wall from several places, and the defenders on the city were already at a disadvantage.

"All the troops obey the order, kill me!"

Seeing this, Yuan Yao shouted, and led three hundred heavily armored iron cavalry to rush towards Zheng Bao's army, and the rest of the soldiers saw Yuan Yao so brave, and their morale skyrocketed, and they shouted loudly and swept towards Zheng Bao's army.

Zheng Bao's army didn't expect that there were ambushes outside the city, and they were suddenly in chaos, not knowing whether to continue the attack or retreat quickly.

"Boom!"

The heavy armored iron cavalry rushed very fast, and rushed into the siege bandit army in a moment, and dozens of bandit soldiers were directly knocked into the air or trampled into flesh, where did Zheng Bao's army see such a formation, and suddenly the formation was chaotic and began to run in all directions.

Yuan Yao was wrapped in the military array by the iron cavalry, and almost did not kill the enemy before directly penetrating Zheng Bao's military formation, at this time the iron cavalry led by Li Zaixing and the ambush soldiers in the east of the city were also killed, Zheng Bao's army was sandwiched by three breads and scattered like birds and beasts, and the general trend of the battle was decided!
