The banner was unfurled, and 10,000 Xiliang cavalry camped on the bank of the Yellow River in Fengling.

The horse-rejecting fences were densely arranged along the banks of the Yellow River, and groups of scouts galloped at high speeds, and everything within a radius of dozens of miles was clearly detected by them.

In particular, the team led by Huang Zhong came to the bank of the Yellow River, and the Xiliang soldiers on the opposite side obviously increased a large number of patrol soldiers.

Standing on the bank of the Yellow River, looking at the surging Yellow River, Huang Zhong couldn't help but start to make trouble in his heart.

finally had an opportunity to act as a pioneer, but was blocked by the Yellow River, and Huang Zhong felt ashamed of Mu Yi's trust and trust in him at this time.

However, what was even more infuriating for the Xiliang soldiers on the other side was that they gathered all the nearby ships, not to mention, they actually nailed into a wooden stake along the Yellow River.

In this way, even if they build enough boats, they will not be able to reach the other side of the Yellow River, because the boats will be stopped by the wooden stakes erected in the Yellow River, and if they do, they will be greeted by an overwhelming barrage of arrows.

Gao Shun looked at Huang Zhong, who was standing on the bank of the Yellow River and frowned, and walked over with a sigh.

"General, the Xiliang soldiers have obviously made defensive preparations for a long time, there is a natural danger of the Yellow River, if they forcibly cross the river, the soldiers will suffer heavy losses even if they reach the other side of the Yellow River! Detour to cross the river from somewhere else, if there are fewer people, it will not work, if there are more people, it will be discovered by the Xiliang soldiers on the other bank, how should this be good? Otherwise, let's hurry up and tell the lord about the situation here for 800 miles, what to do is better than waiting for the lord to decide! Gao Shun said to Huang Zhong.

Huang Zhong's face was solemn, and his eyes were firm: "The army is on the march, and as a pioneer officer, he has to open roads and build bridges in the mountains and rivers, and now he is blocked by a river, what kind of face do you have to go to see the lord?" That's it! First tell the lord about the situation here, as for how to cross the river, let's act when we see the opportunity, and I don't believe that the defense of the Xiliang soldiers on the opposite side will be monolithic. ”

Back at the barracks, Huang Zhong immediately sent the situation here to Bingzhou in the form of an eight-hundred-mile expedited.

On the other side of the Yellow River, the Xiliang military camp.

Zhang Ji also looked at the barracks of the Bingzhou Army on the other side of the Yellow River.

Beside him, Zhang Xiu gritted his teeth and said: "Uncle, this time we are stationed in Tongguan, no matter what, we will make Mu Yi pay a painful price!" Mu Yi dog thief robbed his aunt, such a shame and humiliation must be repaid. ”

Zhang Ji has lived for dozens of years, but he is not as impulsive as Zhang Xiu, and the calculation in his heart is not how to take revenge on Mu Yi, but how to defend Tongguan.

In his opinion, as long as Mu Yi's army is not allowed to cross the Yellow River, after a long time, Mu Yi will definitely withdraw due to the huge consumption of grain and grass in the army.

"Let's just defend Tongguan, and we'll talk about revenge later!" Zhang Ji left the next sentence and turned around and went back to the barracks.

The night was dark, the breeze was blowing, and the air was filled with a faint smell of mud and sand.

and state army barracks

Huang Zhong stood at the door of the big tent of the Chinese army, and there were thousands of soldiers standing straight in front of him.

These people all carried bows and arrows diagonally, steel knives at their waists, and spears long in their hands.

The torches shone on everyone's faces, and although they didn't say a word, everyone's faces exuded a strong aura of slaughter.

Huang Zhong put his hand on the hilt of the knife on his waist and walked towards the thousands of people standing in front of him: "For the great cause of the lord, now this general needs to select a death squad to cross the river, and the people who cross the river may be wiped out, you are all warriors loyal to the lord, this general hereby guarantees that no matter whether you can come back alive or not, your name will be presented in front of the lord!" ”

As soon as Huang Zhong's words fell, thousands of soldiers knelt on one knee and said in unison: "I am willing to die for the Lord......"

Huang Zhong nodded and said, "Okay!" Listen to the general's military order, wait for 3,000 soldiers to go down to prepare, swim across the army at the third watch, and attack the Xiliang army camp after crossing the Yellow River, even if all of them die, they will cause the greatest loss to the Xiliang soldiers! Remember, if you cross the river safely, signal it with a torch immediately! ”

……

The night is dark, and at the third watch, because there is no moon in the sky, it is not an exaggeration to say that you can't see your fingers.

Under the dark night, 3,000 soldiers from the state carried their own equipment on their backs, each holding a puffed skin, and entered the Yellow River one after another.

The skins they use are made of cowhide, which is filled with air and sealed to float on the water. In this way, these soldiers with weapons and armor would not drown in the Yellow River due to physical exhaustion.

This means that Mu Yi spent enough money to train soldiers in this way, so that he could configure skins for soldiers, and if he changed the princes of any party, he would not be able to do this.

Looking at the soldiers entering the Yellow River, Huang Zhong asked, "General Gao, are the planks of the ship ready?" ”

"All set!"

Hearing this, Huang Zhong nodded and said: "Let the soldiers prepare, once the signal is sent on the other side, immediately build a pontoon bridge with the wooden planks of the boat, and take the Xiliang military camp on the other side of the Yellow River no matter what." ”

"Whoa!"

In the Yellow River, a thousand soldiers endured the coldness from the water, and their eyes were firmly fixed on the torches of the Xiliang military camp on the opposite bank.

Perhaps it was because of the many armed swimming training in the water that played a role, or maybe it was their strong will, and the 3,000 soldiers still crossed the Yellow River despite their cold lips purple and shivering.

Crossing the Yellow River, 3,000 people lined up on the river beach, lying on the ground to untie the weapons on their backs, bows and arrows were carried diagonally, steel knives hung on their waists, and they were crawling forward with spears in their hands, bypassing the horses and slowly approaching the Xiliang military camp.

Across

Huang Zhong and Gao Shun stood on the bank of the Yellow River, quietly watching the Xiliang military camp, and the Bingzhou soldiers behind them had prepared wooden boats and planks, quietly waiting for the military order, as long as the signal was sent on the other side of the river, they would immediately build a pontoon bridge to cross the river.

Xiliang Barracks

Although the Xiliang soldiers were heavily defended, they would not believe that the soldiers would cross the river overnight, and they had never heard of an armed swim crossing.

After the rejection of horses by the Yellow River, dozens of Xiliang soldiers were standing guard.

In their opinion, it is impossible for the soldiers to swim from the Yellow River. In addition, since it was dark and they couldn't see the situation in the distance, they were a little slack.

Maybe these people should be damned, the night wind blew, and the Xiliang soldiers who were in charge of standing guard folded their arms and took a nap on the refusing horse with Changge in their arms.

Under the faint torch light, someone suddenly burst out, and the dozens of Xiliang soldiers standing guard didn't even have a chance to shout, so they were covered by someone and wiped their necks.

Some Xiliang soldiers stretched out their hands in a panic and struggled, and Changge in his arms fell to the ground, and he was about to make a sound on the rejection horse.

At this critical moment, the prostrate person on the ground reached out to catch Changge, and then used Changge to slowly resist the corpse of Xiliang Bing, keeping them in a standing posture, and did not make any sound to attract the attention of others from beginning to end.

Although these dozens of Xiliang soldiers have died and can't die anymore, the Xiliang soldiers on the lookout platform in the distance look around, and what catches their eyes is still where the dozens of Xiliang soldiers are standing quietly.
