"I'll see my lord!"

Pang Tong and Yang Zaixing learned that Yuan Yao had summoned them, and hurriedly came to meet Yuan Yao.

Yuan Yao first asked General Su Fei to tell the two of them about the information from the scouts, and said, "General Su, how many defenders does the enemy still have in Liling and Hailun City?" ”

Su Fei had already figured out the situation in Liling and Hailun City: "Back to the lord, after Li Shu transferred two thousand soldiers and horses again, now there are only five hundred Liu clan soldiers left in Liling City to defend. Liling is the forward position to guard against my Chaisang, so there are only 500 soldiers and horses stationed in the formation, as for the main sniper in Haiyang City, it is even more worthless, now there are only hundreds of old and weak soldiers stationed to maintain law and order, as long as Liling is captured, Haiyang City can be taken down! ”

Liling and Haiyang are the necessary places for Chaisang to Nanchang, and if Yuan Yao's army wants to reach the city of Nanchang, it must first capture the two cities of Liling and Haidu.

Yuan Yao had already made a promise to let Su Fei take the position of vanguard, so he asked: "Su Fei, I want to use your department as the vanguard of our army, and open the way to Nanchang for our army to capture the two cities of Liling and Haidu, I wonder if you can be confident?" ”

Su Fei had been waiting for this opportunity to make meritorious service for a long time, and when he heard this, he immediately bowed: "Back to the lord, if you win the trust of the lord, the last general will lead the army to capture the two cities of Liling and Haidun for the lord, and open the way for the lord's army!" ”

Yuan Yao laughed and said: "The general doesn't need to worry first, the two cities of Liling and Haiduan are very small, and it is very easy to capture them, so I still have two conditions to add, you better wait for me to finish speaking before making a decision." ”

Su Fei replied confidently: "Please speak clearly!" ”

Yuan Yao raised two fingers and said, "First, it will take at least half the night for our army to travel from Haidui to Nanchang, so you must capture Haidusk City before midnight tonight; Second, if Li Shu learns that our army is dispatching, there will be variables on the Nanchang battlefield, which will be unfavorable to me, so you must ensure that you cut off the connection between Haidun City and Li Shu's army, and don't let him get the slightest news of our army's troops! ”

"You can do these two conditions?"

Su Fei laughed and replied, "Don't worry, the lord will live up to the trust of the lord!! ”

"Okay, you will be the vanguard in this battle, and you can lead three thousand troops and horses under your command to go!"

"No, the last general will give orders, and before the hour tonight, he will take the two cities of Haidusk Liling for the lord!"

……

。。。。。。

Yangzhou, Yuzhang County, outside the city of Liling.

In addition to the personal guards under the command of Yuan Yao, there are a total of 5,000 soldiers and horses stationed in Chaisang City, one is the 3,000 soldiers and horses brought by Su Fei, and the other is the 2,000 county soldiers sent by Yuan Yao to order Jiangxia Taishou Di Renjie, this battle is related to the overall situation of Jiangdong, Yuan Yao's personal guards must participate in the war, there are still thousands of Jiangdong soldiers in Chaisang City, and it is impossible not to leave soldiers and horses to garrison, so when Yuan Yao ordered Su Fei to send troops, he only took away the 3,000 soldiers and horses under his command, and prepared to leave the remaining 2,000 county soldiers to continue to garrison Chaisang City.

Now there is an army under Yuan Yao all around Chaisang City, and there is no foreign enemy for the time being, and the remaining soldiers and horses only need to guard the Jiangdong soldiers, and it is enough to have 2,000 soldiers and horses stationed there!

After Su Fei left from the General's Mansion, he gathered his troops and horses and went straight to Liling City, after Su Fei's army arrived at Liling City, Su Fei did not rush to attack the city, but ordered a captain under his command to lead a thousand elites to bypass Liling City from the small road to the south of Liling City to ambush in the direction of the south of Liling City.

"General, Captain Wang has led a thousand soldiers and horses to sneak from the path to five miles south of Liling City, and a thousand soldiers and horses have all been ambushed!"

About an hour later, the scout finally brought back Su Fei and wanted news, Su Fei casually spit out the straw in his mouth, and shouted: "All the troops listen to the order, prepare to attack the city, and give me all the banners, this time I will definitely make enough noise!! ”

When Su Fei's generals heard Su Fei's military order, they all looked confused, and a soldier said tentatively: "General, if it is late today, it will be dark in more than half an hour, and the Liling defenders are very vigilant, should I wait until after dark to attack the city at night?" ”

Su Fei stepped forward and patted Jun Hou's head and said, "What do you think, I have made a military order in front of the lord, and I will take the two cities of Liling and Haidui before tonight, if I take Liling at night, then when can I capture Haidu?" And calculate the time, the lord's army is almost here, and if you wait for more than half an hour, will you have to wait for the lord's army to attack the city in person? I can't afford to lose that face! Don't worry, I have a clever plan to attack the city, just follow me with great fanfare! ”

The generals under Su Fei's command hurriedly bowed down and responded: "I haven't thought it through, please don't blame the general, I am willing to attack the city with the general!" ”

"Alright, the army is set off, and the momentum is !!"

……

Su Fei had already brought some more flags when he left the city, and now two thousand soldiers and horses have raised all those flags, and Su Fei specially ordered the soldiers to lengthen the queue and send scouts, and the two thousand army meandered mightily, fully supporting the momentum of the five thousand army!

Garrisoned in Liling City is the Liu clan marshal Liu De, Liu De knows that this battle is very important for the Liu clan, now their biggest hidden danger is the north of Liling City Chaisang City, Chaisang City garrisoned 5,000 soldiers and horses, if the Chaisang army of soldiers and horses is coming, their old nest Haiyang City will be in danger of falling, Haiyang City is the base of Haiyang Liu, if Haiyang City is lost, then their Haiyang Liu clan will be finished!

Liu De has been in good spirits since he led the army into Liling City, and released all the scouts and horses, but he was worried that this would stimulate the Chaisang soldiers and horses, so he didn't dare to put the scouts too far, which gave Su Fei the opportunity to go around the city.

Su Fei's army came all the way with great fanfare, and the Liling scouts naturally discovered their whereabouts very easily, and the Liling scouts saw that there were many enemy scouts, and countless soldiers and horses were overwhelming, and they didn't dare to rush forward to investigate, so they could only glance at it from a distance and hurriedly returned to the city to report the military situation.

At this time, the defenders of Liling also saw a large puff of smoke and dust billowing in the distance from the city, looking at the appearance of the marching army, the sergeants saw their scouts returning, and quickly opened the city gate a little to put the scouts into the city. As soon as the scout entered the city, he was handed over by Liu De, who was observing the enemy's situation on the city wall.

Seeing the scout coming up, Liu De hurriedly asked, "Can you see clearly, how many soldiers and horses are there in the army?" ”

When the scout was on the road, he had already prepared a unified voice, and when he heard Liu De's question, the scout hurriedly replied: "Master of the family, the enemy army is huge, there are two or three hundred horsemen on the scout alone, and when the enemy army marches, the smoke and dust are rolling, and there is no end in sight, and there should be at least five thousand troops to see its momentum!" ”

When Liu De heard that there were as many as 5,000 troops, he was taken aback and asked urgently, "Huh? There are 5,000 soldiers and horses in the army? Have you taken a closer look? ”

The scout was afraid that Liu De would let them investigate the military situation again, so he hurriedly replied: "Master of the family, I have taken a careful look, the enemy army is huge, there must be at least 5,000 troops, if you don't believe it, you can ask someone else!" ”

Liu De looked at the smoke and dust rising into the sky in the distance, and believed a little in the scout's reply in his heart, there are only 5,000 soldiers and horses in Chaisang City now, and now they are pouring into the city, could it be that Yuan Yao has transferred troops to Chaisang again?

The 5,000-strong army came, but they were stationed in Liling by themselves, which is really unlucky!

The soldiers stationed in Liling City are Liu De's clansmen, and the officers in the army are all his brothers, and now whether it is fighting or retreating, he has to discuss with a few brothers, Liu De scolded a few times in his heart, and hurriedly called a few brothers to discuss the matter. After everyone arrived, Liu De first told the enemy situation detected by the scouts, and then asked: "The enemy army is huge, do you say that we will continue to defend the city?" ”

When these Liu Xiaoshuai heard that the enemy army had at least 5,000 soldiers and horses, they immediately exploded, and as soon as Liu De's words fell, everyone began to cry bitterly.

"The enemy army has 5,000 soldiers and horses, which is ten times that of us, and Liling City is just a small city, the city is no more than a foot high, it is not enough to serve as a barrier, even if we fight to the death, I am afraid we will not be able to hold on for long!"

"Yes, yes, now, knowing that we are invincible, how can we kill ourselves? Yuan Yao's army of soldiers and horses is heading south, this matter is very important, I think we should wait for us to withdraw to Haiduan first, and bring the military back is the best policy! ”

"What the two brothers said is good, the terrain of Haiyang City is dangerous and the city defense is strong, we can only play our due value there, I think it is the best policy for us to retreat first, we can bring back such an urgent military situation is already a great achievement, and others have nothing to say!"

……

After listening to the words of the brothers, Liu De also understood their plans, if he ordered to defend the city at this time, I am afraid that several of them would also leave with their own troops.

As the saying goes, the general trend is inviolable, and Liu De also put down his plan to defend the city in his heart, and said: "I already understand what you brothers mean, you go to gather troops and horses to prepare for the withdrawal of the army, and I will observe the enemy situation again!" ”

Seeing that Liu De did not have the intention of sticking to the city, these little marshals also relaxed a little in their hearts, and everyone even responded to their promises, and they all dispersed in a hurry to gather their soldiers and horses to pack their bags and start preparing for evacuation.

Su Fei's army went all the way and finally came to the vicinity of Liling City, Liu De stood at the head of the city, and saw that Su Fei's army was really vast and could not see the end at a glance, so he sighed and completely let go of his plan to defend the city.

He continued to stay in the city, just to confirm the military situation reported by the scouts, in case he was temporarily blinded and gave up the city in vain, and now that the military situation is confirmed, all departments are ready to withdraw the army, Liu De no longer delayed, and led the surrounding sergeants to withdraw from the city.

Su Fei saw from a distance that the city wall of Liling was empty, and there were no soldiers on duty on the city wall, and he immediately smiled......
