Niu Hong bowed slightly: "Come, the next step is the time for everyone to work together, since General Cao asked you to go south to Qizhou, it should mean that you are responsible for the vanguard of our army, right?" ”

"It's nature." Hou Mi nodded and said with a smile, "At the beginning, the cavalry in the Hanzhong Army was all transferred from our northwest, so of course we can't be stingy now." ”

In the Battle of the Northwest, in order to be able to suppress the various families in the Northwest and be able to compete with the Turks, the cavalry of the entire Hanzhong was withdrawn, which reluctantly formed the half of the cavalry under the command of Hou Mi. So when Han Baohu and the others needed help now, Cao Zhong naturally couldn't be too stingy.

And Niu Hong stretched out his hand and nodded on the map: "According to our previous calculations, we should directly transfer from Qizhou to the north to Fengzhou, and then go straight to the northwest county along Jingshui." And now that Li Yan has shrunk to the front line of Fufeng, if we go north directly from Qizhou, the biggest threat is that the flanks will be exposed to Li Yan's troops, but we should not have any obstacles head-on. ”

"You can leave this to us." Without waiting for Niu Hong to finish speaking, Hou Mi had already decisively decided that this task was destined to be the most dangerous, "We will be responsible for attracting Li Yan's attention and creating the illusion that we are going to attack Fufeng." ”

Of course, the whole army should say that the highest mobility ability should be their 2,000 cavalry, and they should have done it in the first place. It's just that they are not directly under the command of Han Baohu and Niu Hong after all, and they are also a rare group of elite cavalry in the Northwest Army, and Niu Hong is really embarrassed to say it directly and let them take risks.

However, it is obvious that Hou Mi and Yu Xi have already been entrusted by Cao Zhong and Xu Deyan when they came, so they are unequivocal. Originally, the purpose of taking Xiaoguan was to clear the way for their Northwest Army to enter the pass, and the Northwest Army at least had to be more active than the Hanzhong Army, right?

"Now it is Yue Wang Yu Wensheng who is guarding in Fengzhou." Niu Hong then said, "Although this person has always been greedy for life and afraid of death, and even did not hesitate to directly betray Yuwenyun in the previous Chang'an Rebellion, but it is precisely because of his timidity that he may insist on defending to the death, and his son Yuwenshu is in the prime of life, and he has quite a lot of military achievements, and he is our first-class enemy." ”

"Yuwen said that this person has always been calm and respectful, but he can be in a high position when he shakes in the wind, so some people in Chang'an City often say that he is 'not a gentleman'." Han Baohu strode in from the outside, as a person who had been in the Sui Dynasty army and participated in some battles, he obviously knew more about these generals of the Northern Zhou Dynasty than Niu Hong, a "two-and-a-half hanger".

"Unlike Nai's father, Yuwenshu is not so timid and afraid, so Fengzhou is not so easy to take, and it is very likely that we will have a big battle with Yuwensheng father and son." Han Baohu added, "Now we can only hope that Bai Pao and our sentry can send back more news related to Fengzhou." ”

"War in Pigzhou······ Will it reveal our purpose? Niu Hong couldn't help but say worriedly.

If Yang Jian left a reckless person in Fengzhou, it would be okay to grasp his weakness in this way and even solve it quickly, and it is estimated that he would not be able to reflect the purpose of the Han army. But Yuwen father and son are just the opposite, they are both good at calculating, will they not be able to detect the slightest clue? At that time, the goal of the army will be exposed, and the entire Xiaoguan battlefield will be completely passive.

Han Baohu laughed: "His Royal Highness the King of Yue, but he is famous for meeting the wind and the rudder. ”

Niu Hong was stunned for a moment, thoughtful.

And Yu Xi and Hou Mi next to him glanced at each other, and could only sigh in their hearts.

Why did this war cause so many twists and turns?

————————-

When Guanzhong in early April is just ushering in the warmth of spring, thousands of miles away Jiangnan Yijing can feel a trace of the breath of Mengchun and early summer.

The peach blossoms in the courtyard had fallen with the wind, Shen Jungao paused slightly under the peach blossom tree, watching the petals fall, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

When I was young, I planted this peach tree with my brother, and now my brother has passed away, and I am irrepressibly old, only this peach tree is still growing strongly, and the flowers bloom and fall as usual every year.

This small courtyard is where Shen Junli, the former head of the Shen family, studied when he was young, a relatively remote and quiet place in the Shen family's mansion, and it is also Shen Jungao's favorite place to stay after his brother inherited the family business. And now this place temporarily belongs to Shen Wuhua.

Shen Wuhua returned here as the daughter of the Shen family, and tomorrow was the day she entered the palace, and Shen Jungao came over to see off her niece.

For this niece, he is also distressed and helpless, but fortunately, now she has finally found her happiness and is relieved.

"Why is Uncle here?" Seeing Shen Jungao coming, Shen Wuhua was also a little surprised, she almost forgot that she was going to enter the palace in a new identity tomorrow, after all, for her who has been in the palace for so long, the palace seems to be her home, and this small courtyard that seems to still have her father's figure is just a temporary place to live when she goes home to save her relatives.

Shen Jungao smiled and said, "Tomorrow you are leaving again, come to see you off." ”

Shen Wuhua came back to her senses and personally made tea for Shen Jungao: "My niece will come back often to come and see, and now I have a lot of opportunities." ”

Naturally, the emperor's approval is required to go home to save relatives, and with the bad relationship between Shen Wuhua and Chen Shubao before, it is almost impossible to go home and save relatives, but now Li Xinchen naturally will not deliberately restrict her.

Shen Jungao bowed slightly, and the daughter of the Shen family entered the palace again and became the new favorite, which is naturally a good thing.

He finally made the Shen family pampered between the change of dynasty.

Glancing at Shen Jungao, Shen Wuhua said in a deep voice: "My niece heard that there are often guests visiting the house these days? ”

Shen Jungao was stunned for a moment, but he didn't intend to hide his smart niece: "That's right, the envoy of Yu Wenxian from the north, called Liu Xiuzheng, didn't come to visit after coming to Jiankang Mansion. This man is very knowledgeable and has a unique understanding of today's general situation······"

"Uncle, be careful with this person." Shen Wuhua said bluntly,

Shen Jungao frowned, but still responded.

Liu Xiuzheng didn't seem to have any intention of attacking Li Xinchen or the big man, but just talked about some poetry and songs, wind and snow every day, which was exactly Shen Jungao's appetite, and the two talked very happily, so Shen Wuhua directly said "Be careful of this person", which made Shen Jungao a little surprised, but his niece had been in the palace for a long time, and he was a little suspicious.

This Liu Xiuzheng was also excluded in the Northern Dynasty, otherwise it would be impossible for him to travel thousands of miles south to be an envoy similar to a hostage, maybe he could get any information related to the Northern Dynasty from him?
