Fu Yan, who was resting in the county guard's mansion, was awakened by the sound of shouting in the middle of the night, and immediately realized that something was wrong. Hurriedly rushed out of the room, and at this time, in front of him, there was only a dazzling fire. "General, something is wrong, the Jin army came in from outside the city, and I don't know how many people there are in the dark. In the entire county, our army is now in a mess and fighting on its own. Just as he was startled, a general ran over and reported it.

"What? Didn't the Jin army retreat? How could it be ......" As soon as the words came out, he figured it out.

I was tricked this time, and I made almost the same mistake as Yu Xi before. Unexpectedly, he was still laughing at Yu Xi's arrogant soldiers for being defeated, and today it will be fulfilled on his body.

"What are you waiting for? Immediately order all the troops to gather here, gather their forces first, and then fight the enemy! After being stunned for a moment, Fu Yan hurriedly ordered.

In the midst of chaos, the most important thing is to let the soldiers find the generals, so that everyone can get a clear order and backbone. Only in this way can everyone's strength be used in one place and solve difficulties.

It's just that in the dark, where is it so easy to gather chaotic soldiers. The soldiers of the Yan Army, who woke up from their sleep, were in a panic at this time, and they didn't even know how many enemies there were. There are many more people who lost their lives in a daze.

Compared with the Jin army, the Yan army is actually not much better. In fact, these two armies have the same method, and when they want to fight, they can directly recruit strong men from various counties and counties, unlike Li Xin and them, a recruit has to go through more than a year of training before going to the battlefield.

What's more critical is the generals who lead the troops. There is a way to be a soldier and a bear, and there will be a nest of bears! This sentence is vividly expressed in the two armies of Yan and Jin, and there is nothing wrong with it.

Although Fu Yan had already tried his best to gather the soldiers, it had little effect. Especially after the news of him here was also known by Yuan Zhen, Yuan Zhen personally led the soldiers to kill all the way to this side.

Just as Fu Yan wanted to catch Yu Xi and them, Yuan Zhen also wanted to take down Fu Yan, the general of the Yan Army, in order to make a great achievement.

The night's engagement ended with a great victory for the Jin army. The Jin army won by surprise, and should cooperate with the city tacitly, and seized the favorable opportunity. Fu Yan was defeated by the carelessness of the enemy and his pride and complacency.

If he hadn't believed too much in superficial phenomena and thought that the Jin army was really afraid of him, so he retreated, he would definitely not have slept so peacefully that night.

It was Yu Xi and them who fled two days ago, but this time it was Fu Yan who escaped. He led an army of 30,000 to the south, except for leaving a part of the soldiers and horses to guard Kangfu County and other places, there were more than 25,000 people who followed him to Suiyang City.

It wasn't until dawn that he ran out of Liang County that he had time to count the soldiers and horses behind him. As a result, the army of more than 20,000 people is now only left with more than 4,000 remnants of the defeated generals still following behind him.

Of course, there may be a lot of Yan soldiers who have run away. But in any case, this time it was a big defeat for Fu Yan. At this time, it was no longer possible for him to advance his troops to Pengcheng or even the Xiapi area as he had imagined before.

The best way is to rush back to Gaoping and Rencheng two counties immediately, and prepare to hold on, in case the Jin army takes advantage of the victory to attack the two places. If these two places are lost, then I really can't explain this time.

In Suiyang City, after a night of bloody battles, the Jin army swept away the depression caused by the defeat of Yu Xi, and its morale quickly recovered. Especially Yu Xi himself, now he is finally relieved.

"Guicheng, you're still amazing! After this big battle, presumably Fu Yan didn't dare to go south easily. In the city, Yu Xi said to Yuan Zhen.

"It's a good thing that he doesn't go south, but we also can't go north! Although we won last night's battle, we are not without losses, if you count your previous defeat, now we have barely more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in our hands. With these troops, how can we take Gaoping County? Now what we have to worry about is how to explain to the general! Yuan Zhen was not as happy as him, and said a little sullenly.

Speaking of Huan Wenlai, Yu Xi's face didn't have a smile anymore, after all, he was also worried about this. Especially his own Yu family, because they are relatives of the emperor, they have a prominent position in Jiangzuo, which also incurs the jealousy of Huan Wen.

If Huan Wen really found an excuse, I am afraid that not only will he suffer, but the entire Yu family will be unlucky.

"In any case, our side has won a big victory after all, and from this point of view, it is not a big mistake!" Yu Xi said with some hesitation.

"So far, we can't manage so much, I have already sent someone to rush to the general and report the war to him! As for how the general decides, it's not something we can control! Yuan Zhen sighed and said in a deep voice.

In Xuchang City, since taking this place, Huan Wen has not moved much for several days. He mainly sent people to find out Sun Xi's movements, wanting to attract them to Xuchang City for a decisive battle.

But Sun Xi is not stupid, naturally he will not come to attack the city with his eight thousand cavalry. At the same time, Huan Wen is most concerned about the progress of Huan Chong and Yuan Zhen, after all, this is largely related to his next move.

"I just got the news that Huan Chong finally took Chen County yesterday, and now he is marching north according to the plan. If nothing else, it should be possible to kill Chen Liu's territory in two days. As for Yuan Zhen's side, Yu Xi first carelessly underestimated the enemy, and was ambushed by Yan General Fu Yan in Kangfu County, and almost the entire army was wiped out. Fortunately, Yuan Zhen later successfully counterattacked in Suiyang, causing Fu Yan to retreat to Changyi County in defeat, which can be regarded as an undefeated game! After getting the latest news, Huan Wen immediately sent someone to convene everyone to discuss.

"In this way, the situation is basically in our favor! I heard that Murong Chui had personally led 40,000 troops from Chenliu to the south, if the expectation was good, it should be for General Huan Chong. And Yuan Zhen's side, it is estimated that it will be impossible to forge ahead in a short period of time, so the only way to do it is to keep it! In this case, our side has become a key place. If we can quickly rush to Chenliu and join forces with General Huan Chong, we will be able to form a superior force against Murong Chui, and it is very likely that we will win a big victory! After hearing the news, everyone discussed for a while, and then, Xi Chao spoke.

"Exactly! Now it seems that Murong Chui sent Sun Xi to lead the troops, in order to drag us down, so that he was unable to support General Huan Chong's side, so as to buy time for him to fight with General Huan Chong. We must not fall for this! Wang Xun also said.

"Well, what do you think we should do? Although we both understand each other's intentions, the 8,000 cavalry in Sun Xi's hands are not ordinary people, and if we don't have a clever plan, it will be difficult to solve them. "How could Huan Wen not know this, in fact, he had thought about it many times, but he couldn't find a way to solve it.

If he'd ever eaten kraft candy, he would have understood that feeling. The current Sun Xi is like kraft candy, sticking to his body, making him want to shake off but can't shake it off, and he can't eat it if he wants to.

"Well, the opposing cavalry comes and goes like the wind. Unless we have the same number or even more than their cavalry, or else we have the same means as Li Hantang and them. Otherwise, it will be extremely difficult to destroy it once it is encountered. It's obviously impossible to win with speed, we can't catch up, only let it find its own door, let's use it to destroy! After everyone thought for a while, Xi Chao said leisurely.

The Huashan army destroyed the Tiefu Xiongnu in three battles in Shuofang, and then swept away Shuofang and Wuyuan and other counties, and it has been half a year since this happened. For those who paid attention to that war, they naturally gradually understood some of the methods used by the Huashan Army.

After all, it is impossible for anyone to ignore the existence of the Huashan Army today. If you want to pay attention to them, it is natural to study the things related to them.

Basically, except for some things, such as the Modao thing that they couldn't figure out, they had basically heard of other things.

"The words of respect are reasonable, but the plan will be settled?" Huan Wen listened, nodded, and then asked.

"The soldiers and horses led by Sun Xi are just to drag us down. When we want to fight, the other party does not fight, and when we do not fight, the other party comes to fight, which is a tired plan! In the opinion of our subordinates, we might as well go north with a large army and go to attack Zheng County, and Sun Xi will come to disturb the army at that time. However, we secretly sent an elite division to bypass the west side of Guci Mountain in the northwest of Xuchang day and night, and then advance eastward through the southern foot of Songyue, and detour to the north of Zheng County. When Sun Xi's soldiers and horses are entangled with us, they will come out from behind, and as long as they are surrounded, they will be able to kill a lot of enemies! Xi Chao pondered for a moment, and then said slowly.

The Guci Mountain he said is actually located in the northwest of Xuchang Songshan Yumai, this place is a scenic spot in the later generations, stretching between Xinzheng Xinmi and Xuchang City.

There is a mountain road on its west side, which leads to the southern foot of Songshan Mountain. From there, if you march further east, you will enter the territory of Xingyang County, and just appear dozens of miles north of Zheng County.

This road is actually risky, because the places it passes through are now under the control of the enemy. Especially after the detour, you have to pass through Mi County, a county occupied by enemy troops.

But in any case, as long as it is done well, its feasibility is still very high.
