In less than two hours, Yang Ru wiped out most of the defenders of the Garbi Pavilion, captured this inconspicuous small town, and cut off the connection between the Mozha Pavilion and the Lane City.

Fearing that the escapees would report to the defenders of Nongdong City, Yang Ru left a team to garrison after capturing the Garbi Pavilion, while he led the remaining few hundred people to speed up towards the Mozha Pavilion to the north.

The Mozha Pavilion did not know that the Tang army had captured the Gabbi Pavilion after the detour, and when they were still rejoicing in repelling the two Tang crossings, the Tang army launched a third river crossing operation.

This time, the Tang army dispatched a large number of strong crossbows, and even rafts and ships increased a lot, obviously intending to take the rhythm of the Mozha Pavilion in one fell swoop.

The Nanzhao defenders of the Mozha Pavilion did not take it to heart, they occupied a favorable position and were not afraid of the attack of the Tang army at all.

But just when the frontal battle was in full swing, hundreds of Tang troops suddenly came out from behind the defenders of the Mozha Pavilion.

This Tang army was the army led by Yang Ru, and although it was not large in number, it caused the defenders of the Mozha Pavilion to fall into chaos as soon as it appeared.

Those improvised township soldiers, lacking experience and discipline, were at a loss for what to do, and the attacking Tang army shouted that the main force had been killed, and these defenders were even more disorganized.

Even if the main general of the defenders of the Suzha Pavilion tried every means to stabilize the situation, the Tang army commanded by Yue Changxu took advantage of the chaos of the defenders of the Suzha Pavilion and took the opportunity to enter the Mozha Pavilion.

A fierce battle ensues!

。。。。。。

"Good news, good news from the front!"

Just when Cui Anqian led the army to Hezi Town, someone rode a horse and came to the army, galloping and shouting.

Hearing the good news, the army on the road got out of the way, and after the messenger left, they began to talk about it.

"What's the good news?" Cui Anqian, who was in Yue Changxu's big tent before, was also a little surprised.

"Chief Administrator Qiqi, just half an hour ago, Yue Dudu led the vanguard army to break through the Mozha Pavilion in one fell swoop after several hours of fierce fighting, killing more than 2,000 enemies and capturing thousands of people."

"What? Did Governor Yue take the Mozha Pavilion? Zhang Lian was a little surprised.

It's only been a few days, is it so fast? It's not that the Nanzhao defenders destroyed all the pontoon bridges, even if they were to make ships, how much could they make in the past few days?

This won the Mozha Pavilion?

Zhang Lian also felt incredible.

Although Cui Anqian was also very curious, he had to see Yue Changxu himself to know what was going on, and he didn't think that Yue Changxu would lie to him about it.

Soon, Cui Anqian led the army to arrive on the bank of the Lushui River, and was a little happy to see the Mozha Pavilion that had been planted with the Tang Dynasty battle flag.

After a while, Yue Changxu crossed the river and returned to the east bank, and when he saw Cui Anqian, he immediately saluted.

"The chief manager, the last general is fortunate to live up to his fate and successfully take the end of the Zha Pavilion. It's just that this pontoon bridge has been destroyed by the Nanzhao defenders, and it will take some time to build another pontoon bridge. ”

"Don't worry, we have already taken the Mozha Pavilion, and the matter of the pontoon can be done slowly. General Lin! Trian looked at Link.

"The last general!" Link hugs his fists.

"The construction of pontoon bridges and the construction of boats and rafts will be the responsibility of your Zuo Longwu army, and strive to allow the army to cross the Lushui within ten days." Cui Anqian commanded.

"The last general commands!"

Cui Anqian asked about the capture of the Mozha Pavilion after giving the order, "Governor Yue, the envoy is also a little curious, how did you take the Mozha Pavilion in such a short period of time?" ”

Yue Changxu replied, "Actually, this is not only the credit of the last general, but also the credit of Yang Sima and the thousand soldiers. ”

Yue Changxu immediately told Cui Anqian how Yang Ru went around the back to capture the Gabbi Pavilion and cooperated with the frontal army to capture the Mozha Pavilion.

Cui Anqian looked at Yang Ru, and was also a little surprised, he didn't expect that Yue Changxu still had such brave and resourceful people under him.

"Governor Yue can rest assured, the merits of you and Yang Sima and others, this envoy will let people remember, and when the war is over, it will be reported to the imperial court, and then the meritorious deeds will be rewarded." Cui Anqian reassured.

"Mr. Xie!"

Yue Changxu and Yang Ru hurriedly thanked, especially the latter.

"Yang Sima, you said that you only left a team of soldiers to garrison the Garbi Pavilion?" Cui Anqian asked.

"Back to the general manager, at that time, the last general did not have enough troops in his hands, and in order to cooperate with Yue Dudu to conquer the Mozha Pavilion, he could only keep that little force." Yang Ru explained.

"It's been two days now, and I'm worried that there is a good chance that the other side of the lane will get the news. Yue Dudu, since you are the vanguard, you will rest for one night in the Mozha Pavilion today, and tomorrow you will lead your vanguard army to rush to reinforce the Garbi Pavilion to avoid being counterattacked by Nanzhao. Cui Anqian commanded.

"The last general understands!"

Because the Gabi Pavilion is more than 200 miles away from Nongdong City, when Yue Changxu captured the Mozha Pavilion, the side of Nongdong City knew that a partial division of the Tang Army had captured the Gabi Pavilion.

The envoy of Langdong Jiedu is called Zheng Maidao, who is the younger brother of Zheng Maihei, who is not very old, not even thirty, and is only twenty-eight years old.

As the first important town for Zheng Maisi to resist the attack of the Tang army, Nongdong naturally attached great importance to it, not only letting his younger brother serve as the envoy of Nongdong, but also increasing the garrison here from 6,000 to 2,500.

Zheng Maidao was arranged by Zheng Maisi to the post of envoy of Langdong Festival two years ago, and the reason why Zheng Maisi can control the political power of the Nanzhao Dynasty is related to his local control of the army.

In addition to Langdong, the Yongchang Jiedu envoy and the Tuodong Jiedu envoy also took refuge in him, and with the support of the three towns Jiedu envoy, he was able to control the Nanzhao Dynasty.

However, at present, the core territory of Zheng Maisi is in Yangtho Baa City and its surrounding Shimei, which is the richest place in Nanzhao.

Similarly, Zheng Maisi has hoarded an army of 40,000 here, and if Langdong can't resist the Tang army, he can still defend it in Shili.

On the side of Langdong City, Zheng Maidao didn't know that the Mozha Pavilion had been captured by the Tang Army at this time.

This person's military talent is average, and it is only because he is the younger brother of Zheng Maihei that he has won this person.

However, Zheng Maidao's deputy, Zhao Shengzheng, suggested that Zheng Maidao send troops to recapture the Jiabi Pavilion to prevent the Mozha Pavilion from being attacked by the Tang army's abdomen and back, and then falling, causing the Tang army to cross Lushui.

Zheng Maidao also thought it was reasonable, and immediately ordered Zhao Shengzheng to be a military general and command two battalions (one battalion of 2,500 people) with a total of 5,000 people to recapture the Gavi Pavilion.

Due to the capture of the Gabi Pavilion by the Tang Army, the Nongdong side did not know about the fall of the Mozha Pavilion.

Zhao Shengzheng was still full of confidence, after all, he led an army of 5,000 people, and it was not easy to recapture the Garbi Pavilion.

When he happily came to receive the military merits, he was ambushed before he arrived at the Gabbi Pavilion.

When he saw the sharp arrows constantly being shot from the jungle on both sides of the road and a large number of Tang troops in armor coming out of the jungle, Zhao Shengzheng realized that he had won the plan.

"Quick, get out! Evacuate! ”

Zhao Shengzheng, who was riding on the horse, shouted loudly, and turned his horse backwards while shouting.
