Huo Yi, who was convening the leaders of the meeting, looked red, his voice was unconsciously amplified, and his body movements were even more frequent.

I saw him wave his hand and say to everyone: "According to the Tanmalai report, that Chen Er broke through Hejiazhuang east of Laiwu this afternoon, and Hejiazhuang is not far from the intersection of the mountain road to Yiyuan, I conclude that Chen Er will definitely rest in Hejiazhuang tonight, and retreat back to Yiyuan early tomorrow morning." ”

"Then Chen Er thinks that he has a few artillery trucks, and if he comes over and fires a few cannons, he can make our Laiwu heroes bow down, does he think that our Laiwu heroes are scared?"

"This time, I must give Na Chen two or three colors, so that he knows that I am no one!"

Seeing the excitement of what Master Huo Zhuang said, the twelve generals present also echoed it.

"Master Huo, you should pay attention, let's all listen to General Huo, with General Huo here, then let Chen Er and a foreigner be powerful."

"General Huo, how to fight, you always set a charter, and we will all follow it."

Huo Yi waved his hand very magnanimously, and the hall suddenly fell silent, and he said with satisfaction: "I heard that Chen Er's artillery car is powerful, so I have a plan here, please judge it." ”

"General Huo, please speak." ……

Huo Yi said: "Since it is expected that Chen Er will retract to Yiyuan tomorrow, and there is only one way to return to Yiyuan, then we naturally know Chen Er's marching route." ”

"That Chen Er's artillery car is powerful, if it is attacked in an open place, I am afraid that there will be many casualties, since we have already expected his marching route, why don't we ambush in the woods heading to Yiyuan in advance, wait for him to come, and rush his artillery car from a close distance, with more than 1,700 iron cavalry waiting for us, we will definitely be able to rush him in one fell swoop!"

"Once its infantry is routed, it will naturally be up to us to cover it up!"

"After defeating its army formation, we will wait in one go, attack Yiyuan, seize the three Zhuangzi, and then divide the seventy or eighty thousand acres of fertile land in Yiyuan equally!"

Listening to what Huo Yi said, everyone immediately became enthusiastic and admired.

...... "General Huo deserves to be General Huo, what a good strategy!" ”

"If we can take the three Zhuangzi in Yiyuan, the old men will eat meat, and I will have soup to drink!" ……

Huo Yi waved his hand again, stopped everyone's reverie, and said: "Since you have no objection to the plan below, I have already asked people to prepare hot soup and rice, and after eating, we will set off, arrive at Guojiazhuang before dark, rest in Guojiazhuang for two hours, and then take the path from Guojiazhuang with torches, through the forest, and arrive at Baotaikou tonight, where we will wait to take Chen Er!" ”

The generals shouted one after another: "Order...... Honorable ...... No......"

……

After the meeting was dismissed, the leaders of each family went back to organize their brothers to eat.

In order to entertain this group of powerful generals from various families, Liujiazhuang summoned the mother-in-law in Zhuangzi and opened a flowing water seat in the Liujia school field.

But then there was a flowing water seat, and where did the more than 1,600 people come over, and the school yard suddenly became a mess, and there was a group fight over who would eat first......

In the end, Huo Yi had to come forward and arrange for each family to take turns to eat the noodles, and it was not until it was dark that everyone set off with torches.

When they arrived at Guojiazhuang, the generals complained bitterly and were reluctant to leave.

Huo Yi had to let everyone rest for two hours before setting off again.

Guojiazhuang is located on the north side of the road from Yiyuan to Laiwu County, from Guojiazhuang there is a path that can barely walk horses, through a forest, you can reach the mouth of the valley leading to Yiyuan, a place called Baotaikou.

This Baotaikou is a large triangular valley mouth, the valley mouth is close to the east half of the valley is woods, near the west half of the wasteland, the road to Yiyuan is located in the middle of the valley.

By the time Huo Yi led 1,700 horsemen carrying torches through the woods south of Guojiazhuang and arrived at this valley, it was already the second half of the night.

As a last resort, Huo Yi led everyone to stop on the wasteland north of Baotaikou, resting while eating some dry food, and waited until dawn before setting off again, passing through the open space west of Baotaikou, and came to the woods in the east.

Huo Yi sent more than a dozen probe horses into the forest for a turn, and after a while, the probe returned that this forest was sparsely wooded, although it was impossible to ride the horse, but it was not a problem to ride a horse through the trot.

After listening to the report of the horses, Huo Yi discussed with the twelve leaders and divided the men and horses into two teams, one team drilled into the woods on the north side of the road, and the other team drilled into the woods on the south side of the road.

What this group of confident generals didn't know was that they had already been spotted last night when they arrived at the open space north of Baotaikou with torches in a noisy manner.

Chen Xian broke and occupied Hejiazhuang according to the plan, and as soon as Zhuangzi was broken, the He family fled through the back door of Zhuangzi.

Chen Xian did not chase either, directly occupied the mansion of He Fu, and arranged for soldiers to control the city walls, city gates and other places in Zhuangzi, and rested in Zhuangzi that night.

In the second half of the night, two fast horses suddenly approached the gate of Hejiazhuang, the guards on the city gate raised their guns and shouted, the man on horseback took the initiative to approach the bonfire outside the gate of Zhuangzi, let the fire illuminate himself, and shouted from afar: "It's us, there is something important to report to the outside." ”

The guards on the gatehouse looked at it and seemed to recognize the people, but even so, he did not open the gates, but only had people hang them up with hanging baskets.

After the two went to the upper building, they went to the He Mansion in the center of Zhuangzi accompanied by the guards.

After the two arrived, Chen Xian, who was sleeping, was woken up.

After listening to the report of the two, Chen Xian was a little surprised at first, and then clapped his hands with some excitement, and said to the two: "Good job, Zhang Song, this kid is a spirit, and I must reward him well when I go back this time." ”

After speaking, he said to the people around him: "Give the two of them a credit, and then take the two of them down to rest first." ”

Waiting for the excited two to leave, Chen Xian said to the guards again: "Go, call the battalion commanders and company commanders up, don't sleep, you have to work!" ”

Next is a chicken, flying and dog jumping, in the thick of the night, He Jiazhuang woke up in advance.

After more than an hour of discussion, a detailed battle plan was formulated, a simple discussion and deduction were conducted, and two sets of simple remedial measures were formulated, and Chen Xian finally announced the dismissal of the meeting.

As soon as the sky dawned, Chen Xian's soldiers had already eaten a simple wartime breakfast, assembled at the gate of Zhuangzi according to the drill rules, quickly passed through the gate of Zhuangzi in the form of a marching army, and quickly changed into a battle formation in the open space outside the gate.

After the team was assembled at the gate of Zhuangzi, Chen Xian first scattered the cavalry, and then ordered the team to turn into a marching formation again and embark on the main road.

Exactly as Huo Yi speculated, Chen Xian has now successfully completed this armed rapid tour mission, and he really plans to return to Yiyuan at this time.

From Hejiazhuang to the east, the terrain begins to rise and fall, and the farmland is divided into small pieces by undulating low mountain beams.

The further east you go, the more sparse the fields become, and small patches of mountains and forests and small barren beaches begin to appear on both sides of the road.

After traveling for about ten miles in such wastelands and mountains and forests, a large piece of wasteland appeared in Chen Xian's field of vision, and that was Baotaikou!
