Three-way intersection.

Guo Shengtong led the main force of the Yan army to chase here and stopped.

A general said to Guo Sheng: "Dashuai, here to the southwest is to go to Yilian City, to the northwest is to Yangwu City, Liu Xuan sent someone to report that there is a Wei army of about 3,000 people fleeing in the direction of Yilian City, listen to the order of the general should be the commander, General Liu Xuan has led the forward men and horses along the direction of Yangwu City to pursue the other Wei troops!" ”

"Map!"

A personal soldier handed a map to Guo Sheng, Guo Sheng took the map and looked at it, the road to the southwest to Yilian City can lead all the way to the coastal road, but the coastal road has been cut off by the Jieshi Mountain occupied by the Southern Dynasty sailors, so the lieutenant can only copy the small road to Baitan.

After thinking and weighing for a moment, Guo Sheng shouted: "Gao Cong! ”

A subordinate general stepped forward and hugged his fists and promised: "The last general!" ”

"We have 3,000 infantry, you take these 3,000 infantry to pursue the lieutenant's army, although they have abandoned a lot of baggage, but there should be a lot, the marching speed can not be too fast, you take the infantry to stay in pursuit even if you can't catch up will not be too far behind, after they take the trail to Baitan, your troops immediately pursue at full speed, and their cavalry will be wasted when they enter the mountain road, and then it will be the time for your infantry to be majestic, and kill them all on that mountain road for Ben Shuai!"

"The last general obeys!" Gao Cong clenched his fists in agreement, turned his head and waved behind him: "Order the infantry to follow me!" ”

Guo Sheng and the others Gao Cong led 3,000 infantry to pursue Wei Xuan's army, while he took the remaining 7,000 men and horses to follow behind the forward Liu Xuan's troops and advance in the direction of Yangwu.

Unlike Shicheng, the Wei army abandoned the White Wolf City, and the Wei army stationed in the White Wolf City retreated in a hurry, and it can be seen from this situation that the Wei army has completely lost its fighting spirit, so Guo Sheng can continue to pursue and kill so confidently and boldly.

Tumen Ridge.

Hua Mulan sat in the shade of the tree and nibbled on dry food, looking a little impatient, and couldn't help but complain: "Why haven't the Yan army's forward pursuers come yet?" Running too slow! ”

Zhao Junsheng sat next to Mulan, poured a mouthful of water into his mouth and said, "They have caught up with Tuoba Qi, Yuanhe and Tuoba Hill in turn for four consecutive days, and there are foot soldiers among the pursuing team, and the speed is already very fast!" ”

Zhao Junsheng's Youzhou Army and Hua Mulan's Right Wing Army are all lightly armed, with thousands of men and horses in front of them, and people and horses from the captain's family in the back, which are very safe, so they don't need to build a camp at night, they can sleep by camping casually, and they don't have to worry about being attacked by sneak attacks, and they can be used for marching more time, if they don't need to cover for Daqian, the speed can be doubled, so their marching speed is relatively slow, and the soldiers have more energy and physical strength.

The lookout post standing at the top of the mountain on the left side of Tumen Ridge kept his eyes fixed on the distance to the south, when a wisp of color appeared at the end of the road on the horizon.

After a while, this wisp of color became larger, and the lookout post found that it was a banner, and he knew too well about this as an old lookout post, so he turned his head and shouted below: "Go and report to the general, the Yan army is coming!" ”

A soldier ran in the direction where Zhao Junsheng was.

"General Qiyu, the chasing soldiers are coming!"

When Zhao Junsheng heard the report, he and Hua Mulan quickly got up from under the tree and ordered the herald: "Go down the order, from now on don't make a sound, wrap the horse's mouth, and let the soldiers find a wooden stick to bite, whoever makes a sound, the military law will deal with it!" ”

"Yes, General!"

Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan soon came to a high place and looked into the distance, and a cavalry appeared at the end of the road, which was very fast, waving flags, and the momentum was violent, and where the soldiers and horses passed, the dust on the road soared into the sky.

It didn't take long for Liu Xuan's banner to clearly appear in Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan's line of sight, and under the banner was a burly general, who couldn't see his appearance clearly because he was too far away.

"Brother Junsheng, let's get ready!" Hua Mulan took a look and said, Liu Xuan's soldiers and horses were about 2,600 horses, and the main force of the Yan army had not yet appeared in the rear.

"Hmm!" Zhao Junsheng agreed, and Hua Mulan quickly returned to the woods on the slopes on both sides of Tumen Ridge.

Hua Mulan and Zhao Junsheng led the horse and hid behind a big tree and asked in a low voice, "Brother Junsheng, how do you want to fight?" Is it to defeat this Yan army forward first and then concentrate on dealing with the main force behind, or delay the time and wait for the main force of the Yan army to arrive before making a move? ”

Zhao Junsheng said: "Naturally, we will wait for the main force of the Yan Army to arrive before we do it, once and for all!" If you hit Liu Xuan's striker first, the main force of the Yan Army will definitely be prepared after getting the news, and it will take a lot of effort to solve them! ”

Hua Mulan asked, "What if the main force of the Yan army can't be delayed?" ”

"Don't worry, I have sent someone to tell Gao Xu, let him wait for the main force of the Yan army to arrive before making a move, if Liu Xuan finds us, we will do it to Liu Xuan's department first, the main force of the Yan army will definitely speed up and rush to reinforcements when they know that the fight has started here!"

When Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan were talking, Liu Xuan, the general of the Yan Army, had already led his troops to the foot of Tumen Ridge.

"Law-" Liu Xuan tightened the reins, the war horse slowly stopped, and the more than 2,600 cavalry behind him also slowed down and stopped advancing.

He looked up and observed the situation of Tumen Ridge, but he couldn't see anything wrong just by observing with his eyes, but the terrain here was still relatively dangerous, and the mountains on both sides were high and dense, so it was easy to hide the soldiers and horses.

"The general is worried that there is a Wei army ambushing in this Tumen Ridge?" The lieutenant asked, "Unlikely, right?" They have long since become lost dogs, and dare to fight us? ”

Liu Xuan shook his head: "Don't be careless, be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years!" By the way, how far away is the main force of the big handsome? ”

"It should be there in an hour!"

Liu Xuan thought to himself, if he sent someone to explore on Tumen Ridge, he was afraid that it would take at least two quarters of an hour, and if there was no ambush here, it would be a waste of time, but if he didn't send someone to investigate, he was not sure in his heart, and after thinking about it, he still decided to send someone to investigate.

"Come on, send two people to explore the mountains and forests on both sides of Tumen Ridge, and go back quickly!"

"Yes!"

After the scouts were dispatched, the adjutant general asked, "Isn't the general worried about wasting his time in vain?" ”

Liu Xuan's face was calm, "In the past few days, we have defeated three Wei armies in a row, there are more than 20,000 people, and the credit is enough!" The terrain here is dangerous, let's be cautious, then we don't seek merit, but seek no fault, the more we can not get carried away at this time! ”

The adjutant general clasped his fists and said: "The general has good words, the last general has been taught!" ”

The scouts were not all afraid of death, they were all afraid of death, they rode to the foot of the mountain, all jumped off their horses, the scouts in front of them took shields and swords to open the way, the middle ones held spears, and the last ones held bows and arrows, and when they searched in a formation of threes, threes, fours, and swordsmen, the first three were sword and shield soldiers, the middle three were spearmen, and the last four were archers.

Everyone was cautious and slow, especially when there were a lot of weeds and shrubs in front of them, and these were the places where it was easiest to hide the enemy.

"Whoosh ······" Suddenly, a rain of arrows came at me.

"Ahh

"Woo-woo-" The sharp whistle sounded.

Liu Xuan and the cavalry under his command heard it, and everyone's faces changed, only to hear Liu Xuan take the spear from the victory hook and shout: "There is an ambush, prepare for battle!" ”

The Yan army's forward cavalry quickly lined up in a military formation, and everyone moved quickly to complete the deployment of the military formation before the ambushed Wei army rushed down.

Zhao Junsheng did not have high expectations for the ambush, it would be best if the ambush could be successful, but with this kind of terrain and Liu Xuan's careful vigilance, it was basically impossible to succeed in the ambush, in fact, his goal had already reached half, he had occupied the favorable terrain, and he had an advantage in troops.

Now that it has been discovered, there is naturally no need to hide it anymore, Zhao Junsheng asked the flag bearer to play the flag on Mulan's side, and when Mulan saw it, she immediately ordered the flag bearer to respond, and then each ordered everyone to get on the horse and go down the mountain.

When Hua Mulan and Zhao Junsheng each walked out of the mountains and forests with a large number of cavalry, the faces of Liu Xuan and the Yan generals under his command changed, and the spirit of these two soldiers and horses was different from the three Wei soldiers and horses they had defeated before.

"General, the morale of these two soldiers and horses does not seem to have been affected by the emperor's death, they are here to work at ease, if we fight, we will suffer a lot!" The deputy general said to Liu Xuan with a nervous expression.

Liu Xuan said with a cold face: "They have come out, this is no longer a question of whether we want to fight or not, we have no choice, they will not let us withdraw!" ”

The deputy general knew that what Liu Xuan said was right, "Then let's fight, the main force of the big marshal is not far behind him, and the last general believes that we can hold out until the main force of the big boss arrives!" ”

Liu Xuan showed his attitude with practical actions, he raised his spear and pointed forward: "Kill-"

"Kill-" More than 2,600 Yan cavalry followed Liu Xuan and rode their horses to kill Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan's team.

Zhao Junsheng and Hua Mulan also gave the order to attack almost at the same time, and the two of them personally led the team to rush towards the Yan army.

Zhao Junsheng's Youzhou army was on the right side, and Mulan's right wing army was on the left, Liu Xuan had to order the deputy general to take half of the men and horses to meet Mulan, and he himself took half of the men and horses to meet the Youzhou army led by Zhao Junsheng, if not, his Yan army would be attacked from both sides.

"Kill—"

"Shoot the arrows—"

"Shoot the arrows—"

Both sides mounted and fired at each other almost simultaneously, and a large number of arrows flew in the air, coming and going, and the cavalry on both sides kept being trampled and drowned by the horse's hooves after falling from their horses.
