The general Wang Bin led hundreds of horsemen to the northwest and rushed to the northwest; At Oxbow Ridge, Wang Bin encountered an enemy army and a chaotic army that had returned from a rout from the south. The two armies charged for two rounds, and the enemy was defeated and retreated to the northeast.

Wang Bin's troops passed through the village of Oxbow Ridge, ran through the open fields and vegetable fields within a radius of several miles, and saw that the main force of the enemy army had withdrawn from here. There were a lot of things discarded around, tents, vehicles, and food were everywhere, and it was a mess.

There were also groups of scattered cavalry, all running north; It seems that the cavalry of the official army has fought unfavorably and has been defeated in many places.

Another large group of officers and cavalry stared at Wang Bin's department! But at this time, another army of Han kings in the east was rapidly advancing to the north; The army and horses went to intercept the Han army over there. Wang Bin ignored it and led the crowd to continue to the northwest.

Wang Bin has already guessed: Qu Nengjun has not been able to break through the Huangbei River yet!

Then Wang Bin's fighter plane that has built great achievements in key places still exists.

His credentials are simple. The number of cavalry of the official army seems to be more than that of the Heian army, probably more than 10,000 cavalry! This was Wang Bin's senses, and he knew that the Ping'an Army also had as many as seven or eight thousand horsemen, but the number of horsemen and horsemen of the local officers and soldiers who were fighting everywhere seemed to be slightly superior.

Now the cavalry of the official army is not in a good position, but they have not yet retreated north on a large scale...... If Qu Neng's 70,000-strong army has broken through the Huangbei River, it will penetrate into the territory of official and military activities from the northwest; In that case, the cavalry vanguard of the official army will definitely retreat to the north in large areas, otherwise they will be divided and surrounded on the battlefield of horse warfare!

To the north of the Oxbow Ridge Clearing, there is a large rolling hillside. The south side of the hillside is barren grassland and shrubland, and there seem to be trees growing on the top and north side of the slope.

"Drive!" Wang Bin shouted, slapped the horse and rushed up to the gentlest place. All the soldiers also came up to the hillside.

The south slope is not steep, but it is a very large slope. After a while, Wang Bin took the lead in rushing to the top of the slope, and the scene in front of him suddenly became broader.

In the depths of his line of sight, there were officers and troops everywhere in the north. At first glance, those queues of people and horses seem to cover the whole land!

Wang Bin looked back at Siye and found no movement of battle in the north at all. He said in his heart: Qu Nengjun is really still on the west bank of the Huangbei River!

Standing on the high ground, Wang Bin looked to the left and could see the bank of the Huangbei River; There is a large mountain forest in front of it, and the position is like a horizontal "beggar", which is estimated to be at least four or five miles wide! To the south on the right, there are many small forests with complex terrain, and at the farthest point there, a large mountain forest can be faintly seen.

Wang Bin carefully observed for a while, and found that the official army had gradually organized the first infantry defense line that bent nearly ten miles along the terrain north of Oxbow Ridge!

The openings between some mountains and forests are very narrow, and a team of 100 households is enough to form a defensive formation. With a maximum of five or six large and small openings in this line of defense, and ambushes in the mountains and forests, the officers and troops may be able to form a very deep and difficult defense line with only 100 units of 100 households and 10,000 infantry.

Seeing this situation, Wang Bin already felt in his eyes that Zhang Fu was a general who was quite good at using soldiers.

And Wang Bin is now just a general in command of hundreds of people, but he was not in such a situation before! Wang Bin used to be one of the commanders of the three guards of the Han Dynasty, and led the training of the guards for a long time, and often served as a vanguard in all the counterinsurgency campaigns in Yunnan; During the "Battle of Crime", Wang Bin also commanded an army of more than 10,000 people.

Therefore, his experience and insight are more than the ability of a cavalry general with hundreds of people. At this time, Wang Bin roughly understood the situation on the battlefield...... If Qu Neng's army could not flank the official army, it would not be easy to break through this official infantry defense line with the cavalry of the Ping'an Army alone. If you wait until Sheng Yong's main force arrives, it will also take time to break through. It's going to be a long time coming!

Wang Bin immediately found three clever personal soldiers, pointed to the mountains and forests in the distance, and said: "Look at that mountain, those enemy phalanxes in the middle; Look further southeast......"

He roughly described the disposition of the officers and troops, and then ordered: "You go back separately, find General Ping, and report the military situation!" ”

The three knights clasped their fists and said, "Order!" ”

Wang Bin pointed to the white linen sermon on their helmets and said, "The things have been picked." ”

According to Ping'an's military order, Wang Bin wanted to try to rush to the Wenchang Bridge on the Huangbei River, assault the officers and troops guarding the bridge from behind, and seize the bridge. But the current situation, the two ferries on the Huangbei River are both north of the first line of defense of the official army! Wang Bin had to cross the first line of infantry defense of the official army and break through to the north before he could approach the Wenchang Bridge.

He anxiously watched the battlefield, trying to find a breakthrough. He kept silently reciting: The officers and troops temporarily formed a front nearly ten miles wide, and there must be a hole!

Wang Bin looked at it for a while, and finally returned to the "apostrophe" mountain forest in the front! It wasn't a mountain, it was made up of several mountains, and there were some places in between, which were not so steep, and there were mountain trails going up. But on the two mountain roads that Wang Bin could see, he could see the figure with his eyes at this time.

What's more, the cavalry can't go over the mountains from the forest, and the speed can't get up, and the time will be delayed for a long time!

Wang Bin's eyes were fixed on a low ground between the two mountains. What is the situation in the mountains over there, but it is blocked by the mountains, Wang Bin can't see it from this angle; But he had a gut feeling that there was some opportunity there.

At this time, there was no room for too much hesitation, Wang Bin pointed with a finger and shouted: "Brothers, go with me!" ”

The riders rushed down the slightly gentle hill on the left. They passed through a grove of trees and came to a valley. Then Wang Bin led the army to turn right and run along the valley at the foot of the mountain to the northeast.

They crossed outside a village, followed the foothills of the mountains to the north, and turned north again; Soon Wang Bin was in the lowlands between the two mountains.

Sure enough, Wang Bin didn't see a single officer sergeant!

But the mountains on both sides of the lowlands are very steep and shrubland. The bushes are much more difficult to walk than the big ones, and the small trees, though short, have long branches on all sides, and they have to be carried with a wood knife to open the way. No wonder there are no enemy troops here!

Between the steep slopes, there is a pool of water, and the water's edge is completely against the mountain. It looks like there's no way out.

Wang Bin slapped his horse and rushed to the edge of the pond, looked at the withered aquatic plants and lotus leaves growing on the surface of the water for a while, then turned over and dismounted, and led the horse down the pond.

"General Wang!" The pro-soldier called.

Wang Bin turned around and said, "A few of you also come down and follow me in a horizontal team." ”

"Order!"

The men led their horses and waded through the water's edge, the deepest part of which was only at their waists. After a while, Wang Bin turned around and shouted, and all the troops dismounted one after another, leading the horses down the pond one after another.

Wang Bin and the others leaned against the western slope on the left side and passed through the pond to the north one after another. A high ridge was visible in front of you, but there was a valley on the left.

So Wang Bin and others, who were soaked wet, got on their horses one after another, turned left, and continued to ride along the valley.

After a while, there was a shouting from the mountain forest on the north side! Wang Bin didn't know what they were shouting, but he knew that there were enemy troops in the forest.

The horsemen had run west along the valley for a while, and by this time they had reached the north side of the mountain range. Soon there was a noisy voice of people from the north, and the infantry phalanx appeared in the distance to the right of Wang Bin!

Wang Bin looked back a few times, determined the direction, and shouted: "Follow me to the south and attack the Huangbei River wading ferry!" ”

A member of the general next to him hurriedly said: "General Keping's military order should be to ask Wang General to attack Wenchang Bridge." ”

Wang Bin was too lazy to say, and said coldly: "So what? ”

The ministry will be speechless. After all, in the eyes of the soldiers, Wang Bin even dared to disobey the military orders of the King of Han, and it seemed normal to disobey the military orders of Ping'an.

The wading crossing of the Huangbei River is on the west side of the mountain, and the mountain forest is near the bank. At this time, Wang Bin could already hear the sound over there, and there was a faint sound of strings in the distance, and the sound of firecrackers and sporadic cannons was getting louder and louder!

It didn't take long for the waters of the Huangbei River to come into view. The shouting was noisy in the woods on the riverbank, and the figures of the enemy soldiers on the edge of the mountain forest could be seen.

Wang Bin raised his hand and gradually reined in his horse, gathering a little to rectify the hundreds of horses that ran over.

He raised his cherry spear and said loudly: "Brothers, we are now besieged on all sides, and only by breaking through the enemy troops guarding the river in front can we get the army of General Qu to respond. If you want to live, you have to fight hard! Fight to the last man, and you will not hesitate! ”

When the soldiers heard this, they let out a roar that they didn't know whether it was fear or anger.

Wang Bin turned around and shouted: "Right Heng and Left General Banner obey orders." ”

One of the generals clasped his fists and said: "The last general!" ”

Wang Bin pointed to the side with a cherry gun: "The first team is scattered, up!" ”

"Order!" A shout came, and more than a dozen horsemen rushed out.

Wang Bin pointed to another place, "The second team is scattered, up!" ”

In a short time, more than fifty horsemen in front of him rushed in a sparse formation to various places in front.

The sound of strings sounded in the woods, arrows flew out on all sides, and occasionally a cavalryman fell from his horse. After a while, a dense burst of fire sounded on the front right side of the right ......side, and several cavalrymen in front of them danced their hands on horseback, screaming, and their swords and guns were gone.

Seeing this, Wang Bin raised his cherry gun, then pointed to the left front, and shouted: "The brothers of the whole army listen to the order, kill!" ”

The armies rushed forward one after another, and the people shouted: "King Han is our king!" ”

The group headed straight for the woods, and there was only the sporadic sound of strings, and no firearms exploded. The horsemen rushed into the woods.

"Bang bang......" A few string sounds sounded in the forest, Wang Bin heard the rustle of arrows sweeping between the leaves, and then let out a miserable "ah" scream, and fell off his horse. The Han Wangjun's cavalry shot also "crackled", and the arrow feathers nailed into the trunk of the tree trembled violently. Wang Bin saw a figure, patted his horse and rushed a few steps, and sure enough, he saw an enemy soldier behind the tree turn around and run, Wang Bin lifted the cherry gun and caught up with a shot.

The horsemen rushed into the woods one after another, and from time to time there were screams from all sides.
