In Longshan, Sima Wen suggested that Su Muzhi take the opportunity to recapture the entire Longshan County. And after the Longshan battle report was transmitted back to Shunzhou, the next instructions given by Lu Chen were exactly like this.

Su Muzhi immediately no longer hesitated, he first ordered Wu Yue to let his iron cavalry sweep through the counties of Longshan at the fastest speed to fight the remnants of the Zhang army, and he himself personally led the infantry army and went straight to the county seat.

At the beginning, in order to support Ding Rui, the puppet king of Jin, to ascend the throne, the Zhang army staged a big drama in Hedong, and after that, there were 400,000 Zhang troops stationed in Hedong and Longshan respectively.

Now Zhao Yuan's troops are out of Longshan, the whole army is defeated, the entire Longshan County is almost empty, Su Muzhi did not encounter any decent resistance at all when he captured Longshan, and when the news of Zhao Yuan's defeat was transmitted back to Zhangguo, Longshan was also completely occupied by the Feng army.

Subsequently, the other 200,000 Zhang troops stationed in Hedong County began to launch fierce attacks on Longshan again and again, but they were all thwarted by Su Muzhi.

On the battlefield of Longshan, he defended 200,000 Zhang troops with more than 80,000 Feng troops, and ordinary people must choose to stick to the city and rely on the city defense to resist the enemy in this situation where the enemy is strong and I am weak.

But Su Muzhi is not, he uses the favorable information obtained by the military aircraft battalion, and at the same time uses Wu Yue's 40,000 iron cavalry to the extreme, often when the Zhang army launches a large-scale siege, Wu Yue will lead the cavalry to suddenly appear on both wings of the Zhang army, cut off the Chinese army, and disrupt the enemy's formation, and at this time, Su Muzhi will see the opportunity, open the city gate, and lead the wind army to fight back out of the city......

In the defensive battle of Longshan, the Zhang army was miserable, and at this time, Lu Chen had personally led 350,000 new troops to join Xiao Wang and the others, and at the same time, he also gave Su Mu a death order to defend Longshan and not let the Zhang army come in!

After discussing with everyone under the tent, everyone thought that the current Zhang army was eager to break through Longshan and enter the Wind Country to assist Ding Rui's rebel forces, and Su Muzhi used 80,000 Feng troops to resist 200,000 Zhang troops, which was not a big problem, but on his side, time could not be delayed too long, because it would not be long before Zhang Guo saw that Longshan could not be attacked for a long time, and he would definitely draw troops from the country.

Therefore, in this case, we must seize time and put down this wind and civil strife in one fell swoop before the main force of Zhang's army arrives at Longshan.

However, after Xiao Wang captured Nanyang County, Zhao Chuan led his troops to chase and kill Zuo Shuang, but was ambushed by Zuo Shuang in the middle of the road, and suffered heavy losses.

At present, Zuo Shuang led more than 60,000 remnants of the defeated army to retreat all the way south, although he completely lost the entire Nanyang County, but he set up a barrier on the main official road to the capital, blocking the wind army from continuing to move south.

After Lu Chen led the army to join Xiao Wang, it was this situation that he encountered. Under the cover of the army, Xiao Wang took Lu Chen to the foot of a mountain, he pointed to the ravines and barriers that had been dug halfway up the mountainside, and said:

"My lord, Zuo Shuang took local materials and built this entire mountain into his own camp in a very short time. Under normal circumstances, it is very stupid to build a camp on a mountain, and the last general has also tried to besiege it with a large army, and when the left double food is exhausted, he will launch a breakthrough downward, and at that time, he can easily encircle and annihilate it......"

Lu Chen listened and watched as Xiao Wang pointed out, he knew that Xiao Wang still had something to say next, otherwise, if it was really as he said, how could he have confronted Zuo Shuang here for a month.

Xiao Wang continued: "But in the end, the last general found out that when Zuo Shuang passed through other counties in Nanyang in the process of fleeing south, he brought all the grain and grass reserves in these counties to the mountain. ”

"But how can our army have time to spend three months here with him." Lu Chen continued Xiao Wang's words and asked again, "Didn't you try to attack?" ”

"I tried, the last general led the army to launch several charges, but the other party was condescending, and he could easily seriously injure our ......army by simply rolling down the stone," Xiao Wang replied.

"What about sparing this place?" Lu Chen asked again.

It's not impossible to spare this place, and the road from Nanyang to the capital is not the only one, but it is precisely for this reason that Xiao Wang does not dare to spare the road.

Because once he spared this place and attacked the capital, the left double group was equivalent to a sharp sword behind him, and he suddenly stabbed from behind him at some point.

He also pretended to retreat and made a posture of sparing the road, but the left and the left two ignored him, and still stuck to the cottage, just waiting for him to attack the capital before acting.

After listening to Xiao Wang's explanation, Lu Chen's brows furrowed, this Zuo Shuang is really difficult!

Ding Rui still has 400,000 central troops, his own strength is not much, and it is impossible to leave 100,000 troops here to drain with him, Zuo Shuang can put on a posture of dragging to death, but how can Lu Chen have that time, you know, if he breaks through the capital one day later, Su Muzhi of Longshan will be more dangerous.

After thinking about it for a while, Lu Chen suddenly asked, "This Zuo Shuang, do any of you know him?" ”

Liu Yuan, Tang Man and the others who followed him looked at each other and shook their heads, while Liu Yuan took the opportunity to tell Lu Chen about the original defense of Xiangzhou.

After listening to his explanation, Lu Chen muttered: "I only know that Ding Ze, the son of Ding Rui, still has some talent for commanding troops, but I haven't heard of it, and there is such a general who is good at defense under him?" ”

Seeing that everyone was silent, Lu Chen thought about it, then suddenly turned to look at Tang Man, and asked, "Tang Man, your secret agent, how many people are still lurking in Fengzhou?" ”

"Back to the lord, within Fengzhou, there are more than thirty brothers from the military aircraft battalion, who are using various identities as a cover to closely monitor every move in the capital." Donman intervened and returned.

"Yes." Lu Chen nodded and said, "In this way, you immediately pass the book to the brothers in the capital, and let them do everything they can, no matter what, they must also check all the details of Zuo Shuang!" Including his status in the Jin Kingdom, and whether Ding Rui's henchmen, or even his family, I have to know! ”

"No!" Tang Man first responded, and then said: "My lord, please rest assured, our secret agent, after a huge amount of money, there are already two people in Fengzhou who already have the status of serious big merchants, and these two people can also talk to some corrupt officials in the Jin Kingdom, and it should not be difficult to find out the details of Zuo Shuang." ”

"Well, this time to listen to Zuo Shuang's intelligence, I will definitely do some things, after you go down, you will get some gold and silver from the quartermaster." Lu Chen said with satisfaction, he appreciated Tang Man more and more.

"Yes!" Tang Man is not hypocritical, the military aircraft battalion is different from other departments, and often has to cover up the identities of some special secret agents, which cost a lot of gold and silver, and in this regard, Lu Chen has never been stingy, he knows the power of intelligence.

After Tang Man left, Xiao Wang said in a condensed voice: "The lord wants to listen to Zuo Shuang's detailed information, is it planned to ......"

"Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one not be defeated in a hundred battles!"
