After Xun Yu left, Qin Hua immediately ordered troops and marched into the division.

And his first target was to garrison Fan Chou in Fufeng County.

Qin Hua raised 100,000 troops, sent troops to Chencang, went down the Weishui, and came to Wuzhang Plain.

At the beginning, Dong Zhuo intended to draw Qin Hua into his own people, because he wanted him to escort his descendants, so even if Qin Hua killed Dong Yue when he was in Chang'an, Dong Zhuo did not pursue it, but this does not mean that Dong Zhuo was defenseless against Qin Hua.

When Qin Hua's army was stationed in Tianshui before, Fan Chou didn't know that Qin Hua was already preparing to attack him, but when Qin Hua's army entered Sili, he quickly got the news.

immediately led troops to Wuzhangyuan to intercept Qin Hua, and at the same time, Fan Chou also told Li Dao and Guo Yan the news of Qin Hua's invasion at the same time.

According to the report of the spies, Qin Hua's army has 100,000 troops, and his army is absolutely impossible to repel at this point, so he can only wait for reinforcements.

For this reason, he also gathered the 20,000 troops besieging Emperor Xian, and stationed 40,000 troops to meet Qin Hua.

At this time, Li Dao and Guo Yan had already fought several battles, and both sides had injuries, and in general, Li Dao's army suffered a larger loss, but it was more than 10,000 casualties.

The armies of Guo Yan and Niu Fu lost less than 5,000.

At the same time as receiving the news from Fan Chou, there was also bad news from the Tiger Prison Pass, Cao Cao used the strategy of night attack to capture the Tiger Prison Pass, which had few defenders, and the 50,000 army also officially entered the pass.

Both sides were attacked at the same time, and no matter how big the grudge between Li Dao and Guo Yan was, they could only choose to stop, otherwise they could only perish.

Qin Hua's army was 100,000, Cao Cao's army was 50,000, a total of 150,000 troops. And the number of their troops has only been reduced to about 100,000 after so long of consumption.

In order to repel the foreign enemy first, Li Dao and Guo Yan negotiated peace under the city of Yixian, although they failed to reach a settlement resolution, but both sides agreed to agree with the outside world first.

After consultation, Li Dao led his own troops and horses to join Fan Chou, with Zhang Ji's army, Li Dao and Fan Chou's army combined also had more than 100,000, which should be able to repel Qin Hua.

Guo Yan led an army of 50,000 to meet Cao Cao, and even if he could not repel Cao Cao, he had to hold out until Li Dao defeated Qin Hua.

As for Niu Fu, he took the remaining 5,000 troops to stay in Yixian.

Niu Fu felt very angry that Li Dao and Guo Yan took away most of the army that originally belonged to him without his consent.

But he couldn't do anything, Li Dao and Guo Yan had temporarily reconciled, if they attacked him together, then he would have no power to fight back, so Niu Fu could only acquiesce to their approach.

"General, these two people are too domineering, if they return victoriously, then Yixian will inevitably be divided between the two of them, and the general will most likely have to worry about his life."

A general said to Niu Fu, this is actually what Niu Fu is worried about.

In order to control the army left by Dong Zhuo before, Li Dao had brazenly launched an attack on himself, but at this time, it was just because of the existence of foreign enemies, once the foreign enemy disappeared, then his life was very likely to be lost.

"I heard that Mrs. and Mrs. Qin Liangzhou have a good relationship, why don't the general join Qin Liangzhou's command."

"Qin Hua?"

Niu Fu closed his eyes and pondered, his relationship with Qin Hua was actually not very good, although the two were brothers-in-law (there didn't seem to be the word brother-in-law in the Han Dynasty, but I don't know what it was called at the time, so let's write it like this), the previous meeting in Chang'an was not bad, plus the relationship between his wife and Dong Bai, Niu Fu finally decided to go to Liangzhou.

It's just that it doesn't feel good to go empty-handed, and Niu Fu decided to bring the treasures of Yixian County as a meeting gift.

However, this thing can't be done now, Li Dao and the others have just left, and if they act now, they may be killed.

So Niu Fu recruited his confidant Hu Chi'er and asked him to secretly carry the treasure and be ready to set off at any time.

After hearing Niu Fu's order, Hu Chi'er's eyes lit up and he was ordered to deal with it.

In the third year of the first peace, in early October

Qin Huajun officially came into contact with Fan Choujun, and the two sides were separated by thirty miles, stationed face to face, and in the middle was a flat land, which was very suitable as a battlefield.

Fan Chou is a native of Jincheng County, Liangzhou, that is, Jincheng County, where Qin Hua served as the county guard.

Although he is barely a fellow villager, because Fan Chou does not have a family in Jincheng, he has no intersection with Qin Hua.

The reason why this place was chosen as the battlefield was not to facilitate Qin Hua's cavalry to fight, but because his own strongest army was also cavalry.

Although because of Qin Hua's relationship, Dong Zhuo did not start because of the rebellion against the kingdom of Liangzhou and Ma Teng and others, but went to Youzhou, but the most elite troops under Dong Zhuo are still cavalry, but now it is not simply the Xiliang cavalry, but also part of the Youzhou cavalry and the Bingzhou cavalry.

With Ma Chao, Yan Xing, and Hao Zhao from the "Youth Heavenly Troupe", Qin Hua and his party climbed a watchtower.

"Uncle, our army has just arrived today, Fan Chou must think that our army is sleepy and tired, why don't we launch a night attack and capture Fan Chou's city in one fell swoop. Moreover, our army has 100,000 people, and Fan Chou's 20,000 troops are not enough to stuff his teeth. ”

"Chao'er has grown a lot recently, and she actually knows how to use stratagems, if it was before, you probably would have directly asked me to launch a surprise attack now."

Ma Chao just touched the back of his head, "Brother Wen Yuan said that you must think more about the war, otherwise how to be worthy of the dead soldiers, the generals are more thoughtful, and the number of dead soldiers will be less." ”

"Okay, it's clear that Wenyuan is the same age as himself, but he turned out to be an older brother, but he became an uncle."

Qin Hua glanced at Zhang Liao with some resentment, Zhang Liao was inexplicable, was there anything wrong with what he said?

To say that Zhang Liao has indeed grown a lot recently, although he used to say that he was not a person who liked to go on a rampage like Ma Chao, but he was more inclined to lead troops to defeat the enemy with force, which was also due to the well-trained Liangzhou army.

However, after so many years of battlefield, Zhang Liao began to understand that the soldiers who were damaged in the battle report were not just a number, they were all fresh lives, so now Zhang Liao has slowly changed from a fierce general to a wise general.

"What Chao'er said is good, and you two should also remember."

Qin Hua said to Yan Xing and Hao Zhao, now that Ma Chao has no words, Qin Hua always feels that it is very strange to call Ma Chao "Chao'er".

Suddenly, Qin Hua saw Yan Xing lowering his head, as if he was thoughtful, and couldn't help asking, "Does Yan Ming (Yan Xing's character) have other opinions?" ”

"Huh?"

Yan Xing heard Qin Hua call his own words, and immediately woke up.

"Lord Qi, I don't think it's appropriate to attack at night tonight."

"Yanming, you don't mean to say that our army is very tired from a long march. The Liangzhou army has special marching training, and this time it is not a rapid march, and it still has the strength to kill the enemy at night. ”

Seeing that Yan Xing denied his plan, Ma Chao said before Qin Hua.

"No, we have also trained in the army, and we naturally know what the strength of the non-commissioned officers is, and besides, there are 40,000 cavalry in the army this time, of course, they have the ability to attack at night. It's just that I think Fan Chou has already set up an ambush and waited for our army to go to the night attack. ”

"Yanming, how did you see that?"

Qin Hua became curious, Qin Hua had already discussed the combat policy this time with Jia Xu, Guo Jia, Zhang Liao and others, and this time he was just to test these three young men.

"The news that our army came to Fufeng County must have been known by Fan Chou, this person knows the soldiers and horses of our army, but he still only uses 20,000 troops to meet the enemy here, which shows that he has been determined to defend here and wait for reinforcements. Then whenever we come here, when we attack at night, he will definitely be on guard. Only by underestimating the enemy, will there be flaws, and now that our army is attacking with the overwhelming momentum of Mount Tai, how dare he relax in the slightest. I think he must have ordered martial law for the whole army by now, waiting for our attack at any time. Therefore, I think that even if the night attack is not successful, it is better to defeat the enemy with strength after the whole army. ”

"Well, yes, yes."

After listening to Yan Xing, Qin Hua smiled and nodded, although Yan Xing was older, at least Yan Xing's strategy now was to be above Ma Chao.

At this time, Qin Hua suddenly noticed that Hao Zhao, the youngest on the side, seemed to be thinking about something, and walked over and patted him on the shoulder.

"Zhao'er, what do you think?"

Seeing that with Qin Hua's arrival, everyone looked at him, Hao Zhao suddenly blushed a little, and his hands kept moving, as if he didn't know where to put them.

"Hao Zhao, if you have any ideas, just say it, but you can't be compared."

Ma Chao and Yan Xing have a good relationship, they practice martial arts and literature together, but maybe because the two met through a fight at the beginning, they have always liked to compare.

And Yan Xing occupies a slightly older relationship and has been pressing Ma Chao, which makes Ma Chao very unhappy, and he will taunt Yan Xing whenever he has the opportunity.

Qin Hua really likes their competitive relationship, as long as it is a healthy competition, then it will definitely be helpful to the two of them.

"I think what Brother Yan Xing said is very right."

Finally, Hao Zhao finally said a word, but Ma Chao, who was holding Hao Zhao's shoulder, was stunned, how can you praise Yan Xing, I want you to hit him...

"Fan Chou's troops were originally less than ours, he must have set up a lot of defenses in the city, it is difficult for our army to take it by surprise, only to attack head-on, but that will inevitably pay a lot of casualties."

Exhaled, Hao Zhao sorted out his words and finally said a long sentence.

Qin Hua's eyes lit up after hearing this, this kid is good, although he is the youngest, his vision is a little higher than the other two.

"Then what should I do, why don't you fight if it's hard?"

Ma Chao uninterestingly let go of the arm on Hao Zhao's body.

But he suddenly found that several other generals, including Qin Hua, did not speak, they were still looking at Hao Zhao, as if Hao Zhao's words were not finished.

"So we don't need to force an attack on Fan Chou's camp, we just need to surround him, if he wants to escape, we will pursue him, and we will be able to win easily, and if he does not flee, we will fight those troops who come to support him."

"Reinforcements?"

Yan Xing's eyes couldn't help but light up, he naturally knew this art of war, but why didn't he want to use it before, he couldn't help but feel a little annoyed.

"You're a good kid, so there's another sentence."

Ma Chao didn't regret that he didn't come up with this idea, but put his hand on Hao Zhao's shoulder again, and hugged it a little tighter this time.

"Hahaha, it seems that Hao Zhao won this time, can you two be convinced?"

Qin Hua said to Yan Xing and Ma Chao.

"This time it's a loss."

Yan Xing arched his hand at Hao Zhao, and Hao Zhao hurriedly waved his hand.

"I also admit defeat, or you are good."

Ma Chao doesn't care about winning or losing, he only cares if the person who wins is Yan Xing, and it doesn't matter who wins the others.

Ma Chao began to ask Hao Zhao how he came up with it, and Yan Xing also joined in, and the three of them chattered like this.

After a while, it was getting dark.

Qin Hua and the others were also ready to go down to eat and rest.

"Lord, since Hao Zhao's plan is good, why don't you see the slightest action from the lord? What if reinforcements come tonight? Or is there something wrong with Hao Zhao's scheme? ”

"You guys, I'll teach you one more thing today, it's true that you need strategy to fight, but the most basic thing is to know yourself and your opponent, haven't you noticed that there are fewer people here today?"

"Hey, Brother Shun is gone."

Ma Chao first found out that Gao Shun was not here, because Gao Shun was in charge of training, so these three people had all practiced under Gao Shun, and their relationship was not bad.

But when he heard this, Qin Hua became even more depressed, just call Brother Zhang Liao, he is at least younger than himself, and now Gao Shun, who is older than himself, is his brother, but he is his uncle...

"Well, a hundred miles away from here, Fan Chou's reinforcements have arrived, and tonight is going to attack at night, but not at night, but with his 20,000 reinforcements."

With Nighthawk's intelligence system, Qin Hua had long known that the 20,000 troops chasing Emperor Xian had arrived, and because of Fan Chou's order, they were traveling day and night, so they should be very tired now.

The troops of this night attack had 6,000 Iron Eagle Cavalry, which was a unit that had followed Qin Hua for many years, and the formation was already very perfect, and the combat power of the non-commissioned officers was also very strong.

There are also 10,000 ordinary cavalry, as well as the 3,000 Xuanjia elite cavalry that Qin Hua has just formed.

As an ace army like the trap camp, this is the first appearance.

At Gao Shun's request, Qin Hua agreed that he, the one who had single-handedly trained the Xuanjia Elite Cavalry, would go to command the battle.

In Qin Hua's memory, Gao Shun's most prominent point is undoubtedly that he trained out of the trapping camp, but his talent in commanding troops seems to be good, but because he died too early, he didn't show how strong he was.

However, when Gao Shun asked for war this time, his friend Zhang Liao also came forward to ask for help, Qin Hua knew that their relationship was very good, but in terms of Zhang Liao's character, if Gao Shun did not know how to lead the army, he would definitely not come forward.

This time, I just took this opportunity to take a look at Gao Shun's strength.

After telling Gao Shun's task to the three boys, the three of them lowered their heads, and the three of them talked so much, it turned out that Qin Hua and his strategists and generals had already considered it, and they were more thoughtful than they thought, which couldn't help but make them very shocked.

"Don't be anxious, the current battlefield is not you, one day, your name will spread all over the world, so what you have to do now is to watch more, learn more, and keep the advantages of others in mind."

Qin Hua otherwise the three of them were hit, and he couldn't help but persuade him.

"Hmm."

The three of them nodded in tacit understanding, and then at the same time wanted Qin Hua to say goodbye and prepare to return to their camp.

At first, Qin Hua thought that they had received a blow, so he had dinner brought to them, but the man came back and reported that the three of them were actually reading books in the tent.

"It's true that they are all generals."
