Luo Li immediately followed to the front of the map, pointed to the direction of Yiyang County and said: "Just now, the scout came to report that there were more than 1,000 soldiers and horses under Wang Shaoyu's command, and they had already gone out to Liuquan Town on the north bank of the Luo River, but the action was not fast, and they stopped again after arriving at Liuquan Town!" Our scouts are still staring at Wang Shaoyu's main force in Yiyang County, and now Wang Shaoyu is still nesting in Yiyang County and has not come out! ”

After two or three years of tempering, Xiao Tianjian is no longer the rookie when he first came, and the continuous conquest has made him accumulate quite a lot of experience, so he already has a very keen sense of smell for military matters, after looking at the map, he touched his chin and thought about it for a while, then shook his head and said: "This Wang Shaoyu is nothing to be afraid of, the officers and soldiers under his command are only more than 4,000 people, even if they all come, they are not enough for us to be enemies, and this guy has a nickname called Wang Bacheng, The deduction of military salaries is very powerful, and the soldiers under his command hate him so much that they grit their teeth, so these soldiers under his command can only be said to be a bunch of guys who have no fighting spirit, and his thousands of soldiers and horses are not to worry about at all! I think he himself knows this very well, although he was ordered to come to save Yongning County this time, but after arriving in Yiyang, he was hesitant, which shows that he has been cowardly before fighting! Picking him up isn't a problem!

But this time his actions are a little suspicious, now I am not worried about Wang Shaoyu's official army, but our fight against Yongning County, other officers and troops in Henan, Chen Yongfu's soldiers and horses should still be in Kaifeng now, and will not be transferred in a short time, but Henan still has Zu Dale and Zu Kuan, the two fierce generals have not been used, these two people are Guanning iron cavalry, and their combat effectiveness is very strong, if I guess correctly, this time we hit Yongning County, which should have alarmed Henan Governor Chen Biqian, Now that Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Army has gone north to Xuanda, what he can use now are Zu Kuan and Zu Dale, the two tiger generals from Liaodong, but at the moment we don't know where they are, whether they have already rushed towards Yongning County!

Since Wang Shaoyu has been nesting in Yiyang County these days and does not dare to move, why did he suddenly send another group of people to Liuquan Town now? Why do I feel that something is not right? ”

After listening to Xiao Tianjian's words, Luo Li was not a layman, and after lying on the map and looking at it, he seemed to realize something, so he frowned and asked: "Does the general suspect that Zu Kuan or Zu Dale may have led the army to Yiyang County?" ”

Xiao Tianjian stood in front of the map and nodded: "It's hard to say, these days we are mainly focusing on the area of Yongning County, and we haven't paid much attention to the situation in the direction of Yiyang, but I think it's very possible!" Otherwise, with Wang Shaoyu's courage, he would not dare to send troops out of Yiyang County easily, since he dares to send troops out now, then this matter may not be as simple as you think, I can't figure out that the more than 1,000 people he sent are a bait for us! It's just waiting for us to bite the hook! ”

Luo Li was a little unconvinced, scratched his head and said, "It shouldn't be!" The lowly official has already sent scouts to investigate the area around Liuquan Town, and there is no sign of a large number of officers and soldiers! ”

Xiao Tianjian turned around and said: "This is just my guess, whether it is or not, I can't be sure now, in short, I feel that Wang Shaoyu's actions this time are a bit abnormal, and if something is abnormal, it must be a demon!" You see, the terrain around Liuquan Town is flat, and he sent more than 1,000 officers and soldiers to Liuquan Town, a place where there is no danger to defend, knowing that we are staring at them, and he doesn't push forward with the whole army in a group, but why should he throw these officers and soldiers here to die? He should know our troops, so many than 1,000 people are put here, once we pounce, this little bit of troops will not be enough for us to stuff our teeth!

And you look at it again, from Yiyang to Yongning County, along the Luohe River is a horse and a flat river, which is very suitable for cavalry maneuvering, and a few miles away from the north bank of the Luohe River is hilly terrain, ravines and ravines, and dense forests, if the official cavalry ambush in advance in the mountains and forests in this area north of Liuquan Town, once we concentrate our forces to eat the officers and soldiers of Liuquan Town, they can kill the generals from behind us, and then we are basically infantry troops, facing their brigade of cavalry will be difficult to care about, and there will be immediate chaos, It's a big loss! If we don't know that we will end up with a total annihilation, we must guard against it!

Tietou, send an order to Li Xuanzhu, let him immediately join forces with the second battalion, and at the same time send scouts to search north of Liuquan Town, to see if I am too careful this time! ”

Tietou immediately received the order, went out and arranged for people to immediately start following Xiao Tianjian's instructions, and sent an order to Li Xuanzhu, who was stationed in the south of the city, so that his troops could rush back to the camp and join Luo Li's second battalion.

Luo Li opened his mouth at this time and said: "What the general said is reasonable, but if you think about it carefully, it is indeed a bit wrong!" I'm going to send more people to the north of Willow Springs to investigate! ”

Xiao Tianjian nodded and said, "Yes, I will arrange for Situ Liang to send a team of cavalry to you, and try to widen the search area!" Don't miss any of the places north of Willow Springs! There is a ditch there, it is very easy to hide three or two thousand soldiers and horses, we can't be careful, in addition, you first lead your troops to Hancheng to garrison, as soon as the three battalions arrive, I will immediately take them over to join you! In any case, we have to fight this battle, and we have to fight it beautifully, otherwise, we won't be able to gain a foothold here! ”

Luo Li straightened his chest and said loudly: "Obey orders!" I'll arrange it! ”

As the official army in the direction of Yiyang County began to move, the various units of the Xingtian Army that were sweeping around Yongning County immediately began to shrink, and Luo Li's second battalion rushed to Hancheng Town one step ahead, stopped on the east side of Hancheng Town, and built fortifications.

After receiving Xiao Tianjian's order, Li Xuanzhu led the third battalion to quickly shrink from the southern part of Yongning County back to the large camp outside Yongning County, and Liu Yaoben's teaching camp, which was being fortified in the west of the city, was also ordered to shrink and return to Yongning County, and the atmosphere in Yongning County suddenly became tense.

Xiao Tianjian did not delay after Li Xuanzhu led his troops back to the camp, and immediately ordered the barracks to enter the county seat to garrison, and Situ Liang's cavalry team also accompanied him and immediately rushed to Hancheng Town in the east of the city with the third battalion.

After Xiao Tianjian led his troops into the camp east of Hancheng Town, Luo Li immediately found Xiao Tianjian in a hurry: "General Qiyu, you guessed right this time, his grandmother's official army this time is really hiding a sentry in the area of Changgou in the north of Liuquan Town, the specific strength is not clear, but looking at the posture, they are all elite soldiers and horses, all hiding in the mountains, and our scouts can't enter at all!" Where did the scouts go a small group, only one came back, and the rest were all lost in the mountain, if it weren't for the rest of the scouts desperately covering this person to escape, this time they were almost all killed in the mountain! However, the brother who came back also said that the officers and soldiers who ambushed them in the mountains all spoke with an accent outside the gates, and they were very tough, if they guessed correctly, they should be Zu Dale or Zu Kuan's subordinates! It's fucking insidious enough, such a sentry horse is hiding in the mountains, and there is no wind at all! It's so dangerous! If it weren't for the general, if you found out that there was a fraud, if we went to fight Willow Springs Town this time, they would be able to block our retreat when they came out, grandma's, they actually played with us!

However, the officers and soldiers in the mountain are very careful, and they have sent a lot of nights to seal the mountain pass, and we scouts and brothers really can't touch it, and we can't find out how many people they have! ”

After hearing this, Xiao Tianjian sneered and said: "It seems that Chen Biqian is fast enough, this time he actually sent these two generals!" It seems that he wants to block us in Willow Springs and eat us in one fell swoop! Hum! Think of it beautifully! These scout brothers have made a great contribution this time, write down their names, go back and let them enter the martyrs' shrine to worship, and those who come back alive will also be rewarded, and they will be reused in the future! ”

Luo Li immediately nodded and wrote it down, and all the generals followed Xiao Tianjian into Luo Li's big tent, where Luo Li had already prepared a topographic map of the area around Liuquan Town that the scout had temporarily sketched, Xiao Tianjian strode to the front of the map, and quickly found the location of Changgou on it.

"I guess it's likely to be Zu Kuan this time, because Zu Dale is said to be still in the Gwangju area, it is impossible to lead the troops here so quickly, and our detailed investigation knows that Zu Kuan's department was stationed in Lushan Chen earlier, and it is much closer to here than Zu Dale, if it is really Guanning Iron Cavalry, it can only be the soldiers and horses under Zu Kuan, but I didn't expect this guy to be rough and fine, and he actually arrived here quietly, and gave us such a bureau, it is really not an ordinary person, if it is not for us to be careful this time, Maybe you're going to lose a lot here! After Xiao Tianjian looked at the map, after looking at the location of Changgou, he felt a little chill behind him, and he broke out in a cold sweat.

This Changgou is located in the northwest of Liuquan Town, is an inconspicuous small ravine, once the Xingtian Army did not find them this time, go straight to Liuquan Town, they can kill from the Changgou, directly cut off the back road of the Xingtian Army, when Wang Shaoyu led the troops from the direction of Yiyang County to kill, you can block the Xingtian Army in the area of Liuquan Town at both ends, and Liuquan Town is just located on the north bank of the Luohe River, to the north is a big mountain, basically there is no way to retreat, if they are successful, Then this battle punishment Heavenly Army will definitely suffer a big loss, although it may not necessarily be wiped out, but it must be inevitable that the vitality will be greatly damaged.

All the generals also looked at the map, and they all secretly shouted that it was dangerous, and Li Xuanzhu scolded even more: "Grandma, this official army is really yin enough, and he actually came up with such a desperate plan, fortunately, the general had a premonition in advance that they were cheating, otherwise, this time we will go to fight Liuquan Town, and they will definitely be blocked in Liuquan Town!"

General, how do you think we should fight this battle? Zu Kuan, we heard that this guy is not a good stubble, the Guanning Iron Cavalry under his command has repeatedly defeated Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng in Henan, and they have been in several formations, which can be regarded as a male army! ”

Xiao Tianjian looked at the map, nodded and said: "Zu Kuan was the general of Liaodong General Zu Dashou in his early years, because of his military exploits, he was gradually promoted, and now he is ordered to lead a Guanning Iron Cavalry into Henan to assist Lu Xiangsheng in suppressing bandits. The three thousand Guan Ning Iron Cavalry under his command can be called a fierce army! And the terrain in this area is relatively flat, once we fight, I'm afraid we don't have much chance of winning!

Now that we already know about his existence, it is impossible for Zu Kuan to sneak up on our back road again, so if my prediction is correct, Zu Kuan should not continue to stay in Changgou now!

In this way, as long as we don't move, they will definitely attack, since this is the case, we will respond to all changes with the same, and have a duel with Zu Kuan here to see if it is his Guanning Iron Cavalry that is powerful, or our Xingtian Army is powerful! ”

When the generals heard this, they all immediately came to their senses, and they all stood up and shouted: "I am willing to listen to the general's orders!" ”

Luo Li scolded and said: "I've heard of Guanning Tieqi for a long time, but unfortunately I didn't have a chance to meet them in Shanxi before, but I didn't expect to meet them here today!" Hum! Lao Tzu wants to see how powerful this Guan Ning Tieqi is! ”

Xiao Tianjian took the generals out of the big tent, rode on the horse and walked around the east of Hancheng, after looking at the terrain here, he waved his hand and pointed to the east with a horse whip and said: "If Zu Kuan leads his troops to attack, he can only go this way, the north is basically hilly, which is quite unfavorable for his cavalry to expand, and the flat land of this line is about four miles wide, if we all unfold, the defense line will be too thin, once he breaks through, then the whole line may collapse, it seems that our battle is not easy to fight!"

Luo Li, Li Xuanzhu, both of you are the main generals, you should talk about it, how should we fight this battle to be more advantageous? You can't listen to me for everything, you will have to be alone in the future, and it is time for you to ponder it! By the way, there are also Zhao Erdonkey, Jiang Cheng, the two of you, think about it, how should we fight this battle? ”

All the generals reined in the reins of their horses, jumped off their horses, and looked in the direction of Liuquan Town......
