Chapter 904: Liyang Cangcheng Meets the Dead

Hebei, Liyang Ferry.

Liyang, one of the main ferries on the Yellow River here, the history can be traced back to the period of the three emperors and five emperors in ancient times, and the Fangtou along the Yellow River, Yanjin and other ferries, from a distance, here is a small city, but there are no residents in the city, instead of hundreds of wharves and berths, at both ends of the Yellow River ferry, a busy scene, Luoshui, a tributary of the Yellow River, enters the city from the south, above is the endless flow of pump boats, carrying general ordnance, grain and grass, and the other side is the surging Yellow River, Flat-bottomed sand boats are shuttling back and forth between Liyang and the Mengjin ferry on the opposite side, transporting the grain and ordnance stored in Cangcheng to Hebei one after another, and then from water to land, to the front line of Fangtou on the other side.

Liu Yu was dressed in chain mail, dressed as a military master, and dozens of military academies, walking behind the two leading generals, one of them, tall and black, was the Huan family guest general Zhang Yuan, and the other, short and fat, like a winter melon, full of red light, and the leather armor on his body is so incommensurate, not so much a general, but more like a country rich man, is it not the new Liyang Taishou, the deputy marshal of the Northern Expeditionary Army Teng Tianzhi?

Zhang Yuan stopped, stood at the head of the city, looked ahead, his eyebrows were twisted together, he slapped the battlements of the city wall heavily, and said in a deep voice: "The day before yesterday, Sun fought on the gate, Liu Yingyang (Liu Gaozhi) was unfavorable, and when he was about to capture the gate, he was personally led by Murong Chui to lead the troops to assault, losing more than 100 people, all saying that the Beifu army swept the world invincible, but in this first battle in Hebei, it was defeated for a while, it seems, the rumors may not be true." ”

When he said this, he glanced at Liu Yu standing in the crowd intentionally or unintentionally, and a smug sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Teng Tianzhi smiled and waved his hand: "But Murong Chui still retreated, Liu Yingyang was able to attack for a while, give a sneak attack, it doesn't hurt, General Zhang, look at Fu Pi in Yecheng, or go out of the city to attack the Yan army, Xie Zhenjun was worried that Fu Pi would turn against the water before, but now it seems that this worry is superfluous." ”

Zhang Yuan's brows furrowed, and he said in a deep voice: "Teng Taishou, you said that we led the army to the Northern Expedition thousands of miles away, what did you do?" ”

Teng Tianzhi was slightly stunned: "Naturally, it is to sweep away the Hulu and restore the lost ground." ”

Zhang Yuan patted the battlements of the city wall: "Let's wait here, watch it, and then we can recover the lost ground?" Liu Yingyang is no more than 10,000 people, can move forward, we have 10,000 elite soldiers, but here can only guard the grain and grass, every day is just to do some transshipment work, if we knew this, why should we come? ”

Teng Tianzhi laughed and waved his hand: "General Zhang, someone is charging in front, and someone has to be in the rear, this soldier and horse have not moved, the grain and grass have to go first, we are in Hebei, the most important thing is the grain, hold this ferry, the army in front will have grain and grass, and when the follow-up troops come up, they can naturally replace us. ”

Zhang Yuan sneered: "Sweeping Hebei? Teng Taishou is afraid that he is thinking too much, Liu Yingyang will give us a few remaining cities to sweep? He is about to have a decisive battle with Murong Trai, once he wins, then Murong Trai will only flee from the wind, and the prefectures and counties of Hebei will change their banners quickly, and when the time comes, I am afraid that there will not even be a small county town. ”

A trace of doubt flashed on Teng Tianzhi's face, and he blinked: "No, Murong Chui doesn't have more than 100,000 troops, Liu Yingyang is no more than 10,000 people, although he has a foothold in the front now, he can only camp and hold on, if you want to talk about a decisive battle, I'm afraid that the troops are insufficient." ”

Zhang Yuan said in a deep voice: "Teng Taishou is afraid that he doesn't know enough about Liu Yingyang, he has 5,000 men and horses, so he dares to take the initiative to attack the 50,000 Qin army infantry on the opposite side, and if there are 10,000 tigers, he dares to rush straight to the Qin army's millions of people in the water, Murong Chui's subordinates are mostly rabble, and the elite soldiers of the headquarters are only 30,000 or 40,000 foot cavalry, Liu Yingyang has nothing to dare to fight." ”

Teng Tianzhi hooked the corners of his mouth, turned his head to Liu Yu in the crowd and said: "Master Liu, they all say that you have experienced a hundred battles and are the first warrior of the Beifu Army, do you agree with what General Zhang said just now?" ”

Liu Yu smiled slightly, pressed his hand to his chest, and gave a military salute: "The humble post is just a small army master, he only knows how to act according to orders, and the way to defend the battle is determined by the general, but the humble post knows that the duty is to guard this Liyang with the two generals, not only to provide military rations for the front-line soldiers, but also to be optimistic about the throat of the army to go forward and retreat, and its importance is no worse than General Liu who confronted the Yan army in front." ”

Zhang Yuan snorted heavily: "Liu Yu, they all say that you are invincible, how can you get it, but what you saw with your own eyes this time really disappointed General Ben, where is your sharpness and fighting spirit?" Do you also want to sit here and watch others make meritorious deeds and do nothing yourself? The military law of the Great Jin Dynasty, the merits are calculated according to the beheading and captivity, and they are guarded here, can they have these merits? ”

Liu Yu said indifferently: "These are the things that Xuan Shuai has to consider, he doesn't dare to speak falsely, he only knows that as a soldier, he should obey orders and listen to commands." The confrontation between Murong Chui and Liu Yingyang on the front line will presumably cut off our army's food route, his strength has an advantage, and he is likely to send a partial division to attack this Liyang Cangcheng, I am waiting here, not idle, but always in danger. ”

Teng Tianzhi's eyes widened: "You, what did you say?" The Yan army dares to come here to attack? ”

Liu Yu nodded: "The confrontation between the two armies, with the right coincidence, with the odd victory, if you can cut off the enemy's retreat at the same time, burning its grain and grass, it is naturally the best policy, it is precisely because of this that Xuan Shuai handed over such an important task of guarding Liyang to the two generals, this is the importance and trust of the two, how can it be said that there is nothing to do?!" ”

Zhang Yuan stomped his foot heavily: "Enough, Liu Yu, you don't know anything." In this Hebei land, there are not only Qin Yan's two rebels, but also other forces, if we can take the initiative to fight for it, it will allow us to add 100,000 troops, why bother holding each other here? ”

Teng Tianzhi's spirit perked up, and he immediately turned to Zhang Yuan again: "General Zhang, what do you mean by this?" Who are these other forces? ”

Zhang Yuan glanced at Liu Yu proudly, pointed to an inconspicuous sergeant-looking person in the crowd, and said, "Liu Yu, this person is also your old acquaintance, do you want to meet and say hello?" ”

Liu Yu's heart moved, just now he felt that among these people, there seemed to be an acquaintance, but he couldn't tell who it was, the person who came seemed to have been deliberately avoiding himself, until this time, he set his eyes in the direction that Zhang Yuan pointed, a face met Liu Yu's eyes, and he gasped: "It's actually you?!" ”
