Zu Ti has been fighting up and down the river for a long time, and he naturally knows the situation of the Yellow River in each season, when it is the dry season, when it is the flood season, and so on. To tell the truth, the Yellow River is not frozen every winter, and not every section will be frozen, but when the heavy snow is coming, the weather is suddenly cold, and it is very likely to freeze this winter!

Once the Yellow River is frozen, the transportation of grain and straw for the Jin army will be cut off - of course, it is possible to pull carts on the ice to transport grain, and soldiers can also step on the ice and go south and north, but the problem is not that it will freeze today, and it will be able to run away tomorrow.

Zu Ti originally thought that the surprise attack on Tongguan could quickly open up the situation in Hebei, and when the time came, he would either point to Xiangguo in front of him, or cooperate with Li Ju to occupy Hanoi, even if he robbed on the road, because of the grain to the enemy, he would not be burdened by the river seal. But who would have thought that facing Zhang Bin directly, it would be difficult to move an inch in nearly a month, and he would be cramped within less than 30 miles from Jixian to Tongguan, and the rear transportation could only rely on the Yellow River......

Therefore, as soon as he realized that the situation was wrong, he broke his wrist and did not hesitate, hurriedly gave up Tongguan, went east to Sanjin, and retreated to Puyang. When the army reached the south of the Yellow River, Zu Shizhi breathed a sigh of relief, and then the troops marched east to fight Shihu.

Since he gave up fighting in Hebei, how could Zu Ti let Shi Hu continue to wedge into Henan? Since he crossed to the south, it is reasonable to attack Shihu - no, it is simply inevitable. Therefore, when Shi Le heard Zhang Bin say that the Jin army had returned to the south, he immediately reacted - Shi Hu was in danger!

Zhang Bin said don't worry, I have sent someone to summon Shi Hu and ask him to retreat to the north bank of the Yellow River quickly.

Shi Le couldn't help but smile bitterly, saying that he didn't expect the battle to be like this...... Zu Ti is really a fierce enemy. Then he asked Zhang Bin, saying that the main force of our army, what should we do next? Will you go west to reinforce Hanoi, or will you return to the east, and by the way, you will eradicate the disgust? Zhang Bin suggested: "Your Majesty has been there in person, from the west to Hanoi, if we can defeat Li Shihui and take Hanoi as much as possible, the situation between the enemy and us will be completely reversed." ”

Not to mention that the main force of the Qianjun army marched westward, and said that Zu Ti had returned to Henan, he ordered the fierce general Feng Long to lead the "revenge army" to take the lead by land and go to Gucheng to help, and after consolidating the defense of Sanjin, he still took the boat upstairs, went down the river, and went straight to Jibei - while it was not frozen, I used the boat again at the end.

The ship was fast, and when he led more than 10,000 troops to land in Linyi, Shi Hu was still unaware.

Although Zhang Bin had already sent someone to inform Shi Hu, because the ferry was once owned by the Jin master, it was difficult to search for the boat, and even if the Yellow River was crossed by boat, the land between the river and Ji was also Jin, and it was not so easy to cross...... Unless you go around to Licheng, but the farther you go, the slower the speed will be.

It wasn't until Zu Ti's department planned to wade across the Jishui near Shimen that Shi Hu got the news, counted the time, and couldn't help but be shocked. The little guy was also very sensitive, so he immediately gave up Lu Zicheng, turned around and ran - unfortunately, the news on the land route had not yet reached Gucheng, and Wei Ce and the others did not dare to chase after him.

Immediately, a fierce battle broke out between the two armies near Shimen. The only part of the ancestral army is here, and the number of the army is not too much, which can be described as evenly matched. However, although the Jin division came from a long distance, it was inevitable that he would be tired, and Zhao Jun was very heartfelt, and the array was not in order, and it was difficult to solve for a while. At the time of the fierce battle, although Cao's army was behind the battle, he suddenly shouted inexplicably, and collapsed first, and the rout ran all over the field......

This affected the whole army, Shi Hu suffered a crushing defeat, he relied on his personal bravery, and finally broke through the interception of the Jin army, fled to Pingyin City in embarrassment, rested slightly, and ran back to Licheng in one breath - faster than when he came. Huyan Mo was caught in the middle of the Jin formation, and he couldn't break the siege in all kinds of conflicts, so he finally had to abandon his sword to the ground and surrender to Zu Li.

At this time, Wei Ce, Xu Gong and others finally caught up, merged with Zu Li, and entered Pingyin City. Wei Ce suggested that he should be angry, take Licheng directly, and capture Shihu alive, but Zu Ti shook his head and said: "Since I return to the south, Zhang Bin will go to Hanoi, Li Shihui may not be able to resist, if Hanoi is lost, Luoyang is in danger!" Immediately ordered the "revenge army" to chase Shihu, leave a book Feng Long, take the city if it is desirable, retreat if it is not taken, and do not waste the life of the general.

At the same time, he ordered Xu Gong and other generals to lead the soldiers of the county to quell the rebellion of Zhou Jian, and he returned west with Wei Ce's department.

Passing through Xiaqiu, Cai Bao came to pay respects, and Zu Li scolded: "You guard Yanzhou, you can't be a thief in the front, and you can't put down the rebellion in the future, is it possible that the name awarded by the imperial court is only used to show your identity?!" ”

In fact, in his original plan, there was no intention of letting Cai Bao go east to reinforce Gucheng - Yin Qiao's analysis was correct - but when Zhou Jian was in turmoil, I had already controlled Sanjin on the north bank, so it wouldn't be like you if you didn't move, right? Second, Zu Ti was forced to retreat back to Henan because of the weather, and he was having a belly of fire in his heart, and he had always looked at Cai Bao unpleasantly, so he didn't get angry with him at this time, and when would he stay?

Immediately took the scepter, dismissed Cai Bao Yanzhou Assassin Shi post, and temporarily signed his younger brother and ancestor to replace him. Cai Bao was immediately escorted to the prisoner car and returned to Luoyang together.

When Zu Ti arrived in the suburbs of Luoyang, he heard the news that because the main force of the Qian army was heading west to Hanoi, the Chao ordered Zhen to follow the Guanzhong army from Mengjin to the north to reinforce Li Shihui. He took a breath and felt tired, and couldn't help but sneeze a few more times, and when he touched his forehead, the fire was hot......

Zu Lian saw that his father's face was not good, so he hurriedly came over to inquire, Zu Li waved his hand, signaling him to pretend not to know, and not to spread the word. He immediately entered Luoyang City, explained Cai Bao's crime to the imperial court, and asked for it to be corrected. Xun Group is good at talking, but he only stripped himself of his official position and became a civilian.

- Cai Bao was lucky, in the original history, he lacked a strong backer in the court, and the result was also because of the crime of cowering - in fact, it was affected by others - was sentenced by the Jin Yuan Emperor Sima Rui in Jiankang City.

Immediately, Zu Ti strengthened the sick body, regathered the army, and went north to Mengjin, intending to also go to reinforce Hanoi. But when I got to the river, the flow of the Yellow River was slowing down, and there were already signs of freezing. Zu Ti said in his heart that it was dangerous, if I retreated a few days late, I am afraid that the whole army would be wiped out in Tongguan! It's just that now when the first freeze comes, not to mention that the ships are difficult to travel, even the pontoon bridge may not be reliable, and it is difficult for the army to cross north - I have to wait a few more days until it is completely frozen.

As soon as this breath was released, Zu Shizhi immediately fell to the sky, and he was seriously ill......

——————————

Besides, Zhen arrived in Luoyang with his troops on the same day, and was worshiped as the general of Zhenxi, Kaifu Yi and the three divisions, and he was overjoyed. Immediately asked for an order to go east and go to Gucheng to meet Shi Hu, but the fate was delayed.

Not only that, but in the past three days, officials from both ends came to visit Zhen Zhenxi, or invited him to a banquet, and treated him with fine wine and women's sex - of course, this was instructed by the Xun group to win over Zhen Sui. However, after meeting Zhen Sui, those officials ran to Xun Group to complain, saying that this barbarian was extremely rude and could not understand literature and ink, so we had nothing to say to him...... And he is arrogant and rude, I have been humiliated by him, and I didn't throw up my sleeves and leave on the spot, even if it is worthy of your entrustment!

After several days of this, Liang Fen and the others finally saw that something was wrong, so Liang Fen instructed Yin Qiao to warn Zhen Sui. Zhen Sui grinned and said, "Do you think that I will betray Da Sima?" The old man of wine and meat enjoys himself, and he doesn't listen to any other words, so what's the hindrance? ”

immediately accused Yin Qiao: "Since you are a scholar, why don't you hurry up and issue an edict so that I can lead the troops to fight the dogs?" When the army is on the road, naturally no one will come to invite you again, won't it line your intentions? ”

However, Xun Di, Zu Na and others colluded in Shangshu Province, under the pretext that the front line was stalemate, and there was no major problem for the time being, but the Luoyang defense was weak, and the Guanzhong army had to stay in the capital, and they refused to give an order if they kept dragging it out. Liang Fen, Yin Qiao and others tried their best to join forces and finally allowed Zhen Sui and others to set off eastward seven days after they arrived in Luoyang.

Zhen immediately ordered troops on the road, traveled more than 50 miles in one day, and stationed in Gong County. However, he immediately received a report from Kuaima that General Zu had led the Chinese army back to Henan, and the main force of the Qian army was heading west to Hanoi.

Zhen Sui got the edict, so he smiled and said: "I only want to be in Shihu, but the governor of the capital often says that Zhang Bin is wise, so it is okay to go to Hanoi to meet him for a while." The angel reminded him: "Fang has to be rewarded, Shi Le has reached the ...... of the Karma army" Zhen Sui heard this, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he laughed and said: "In this case, I will go and take the head of the Karma slave!" ”

That is, he rested for one night in Gong County, and the next day he was diverted to the northwest, wading from Mengjin to Hanoi.

Besides, Li Ju received Zu Ti's order before, and immediately gathered troops to the east and killed Xiangzhou County. The state and county guards Tao Leopard went out of the city to fight, which was unfavorable, but then Zhixiong from Shanyang and Wangyang from Huai County came to help one after another, camping in the north and south of the state and county, and showing a horn trend. Li Ju led the army to fight many times, but he could not defeat any of the Qiang army, and the war fell into a stalemate.

Immediately, Shi Le and Zhang Bin led the main force of the Zhao army to arrive, and Li Ju got the report and hurriedly retreated to the wild king. Shile settled in Zhou County, and immediately sent his troops to attack Wen County.

Wen County is 50 miles south of Yewang, and Mengjin Ferry is in Wen County, located in the southwest of the county. If Wen County is captured by the Zhao army, it can control Mengjin and make it difficult for the Jin reinforcements to cross - this is exactly what the enemy has to be saved.

Li Ju hurriedly sent his nephew Guo Yu to rescue Wen County, that is, he encountered the Zhao army in the east of the county, and after a fierce battle, Ge Bo and Liu Mian took the initiative to retreat west. Guo Yu chased after him, but Zhang Bin set up an ambush in advance, killed Guo Yu and was defeated and forced to retreat to the county seat of Wenxian County. Li Ju came to the aid of Guo Yu, but on the way he encountered the main force of the Zhao army led by Shi Le, and he did not dare to attack him, so he had to return to the wild king in a daze.

Immediately, General Zhixiong led his troops to surround Wenxian and send Liu Mian around the city to seize the Mengjin Ferry.

Liu Mian led his troops to Mengjin and confronted the garrison Jin army. Seeing that the sky was about to darken, he was about to retreat and set up camp and fight again tomorrow, when he suddenly saw countless torches coming south of the ferry and above the Yellow River......

Zu Ti took advantage of the approaching dry season of the Yellow River in advance to transfer ships and build three pontoon bridges in the Mengjin section to make a move to reinforce Hanoi. Therefore, Liu Mian's mission here was to seize the ferry, set fire to the pontoon bridge, and completely block the possible reinforcements of the Jin side south of the Yellow River.

In fact, Shi Lexian handed over this important task to Zhixiong, who was besieging Wen County, and Zhixiong asked: "If we can trap Guo Shengjie in Wen County and prevent Li Shi from returning to the south to save him, after our army captures Mengjin, we can cross the pontoon bridge, go straight to Luoyang, and smash the heart of Jin Kou - why burn the bridge?" ”

Zhang Bin explained to him on behalf of Shi Le, saying: "The general should not underestimate the Jin people, this time is different from the past. Zu Shizhi has been running Luoyang for a long time, the city defense is firm, and the Jin lord is in Si, even if Zu goes east, how can he not leave a heavy army to protect it? If our army moves forward to Luoyang, the anti-terrorism will be defeated by the soldiers and horses left behind in Jin; If you make a big move to Luoyang, Li Shihui will wait behind, once he cuts off the back road of our army, I am afraid that it will be difficult to overcome the fortified city in the front, and the horse will not be able to return to the north......"

The decapitation operation must ensure that the first blow is hit, otherwise if you go deep into the enemy's territory, it will be easy to be dumpled. Zhang Bin's plan is best to break through such a time gap, completely defeat Li Ju, and occupy Hanoi; Even if they can't, they must force the Jin troops from all walks of life to return to Luoyang, so that Shi Hu can evacuate Henan safely. As for the matter of threatening Luoyang and breaking the enemy and returning to the division, we only need to capture Mengjin and burn the pontoon bridge, and it is not necessary to really kill Luoyang City in one go, which is not safe.

If he wanted to take the opportunity to cross south, it is estimated that Zhixiong would have already gone to command in person and captured Mengjin and the pontoon bridge on the river. But Liu Mian didn't expect that seeing that Meng Jinke was about to fall, suddenly countless torches rushed through the pontoon bridge......

This is naturally the Guanzhong army led by Zhen Suisuo. Zhen Sui did not know that Shile had arrived in Hanoi, and the situation on the battlefield had been completely reversed, and then the Qianjun army could be killed all the way to the vicinity of Mengjin, he purely wanted to take down Shile's head as soon as possible and make a great contribution, so he urged the generals to travel day and night to reach the riverbank. When he arrived in Mengjin, the sky was already dark, and it was about to get dark, so Dong Biao suggested that he camp on the south bank, rest for a night, and cross again tomorrow.

Zhen Sui smiled: "Just light the torch, will it still fall into the water?" Not far from Mengjin, it is Wen County, the gentlemen speed up their pace, and they can enter the city to rest in the second half of the night, why do they have to stay in the wilderness? ”

So the army rushed across, and it was the governor Yang Qing who took the lead. Yang Qing had just walked to the middle of the river, when suddenly a pawn came to report that the army was attacking the Jin fortress on the north bank - the defenders saw the torches on the pontoon bridge, so they naturally sent someone to contact them.

Yang Qing was shocked, and said in his heart Why am I so unlucky, I thought that the territory was just marching, even if it was the first, it would be no big problem, and it would be possible to encounter the enemy after passing Wen County...... Hurriedly asked: "Can the barrier be broken?" How many thieves are there? ”

When he heard the reply, saying that the Jin base had not yet been completely broken, the north bank was still in the hands of his family for the time being, and the number of troops who came to attack was not much, only about 2,000, Yang Qing was bold. He said in his heart that if the thief stops two thousand, then if I turn around and retreat, I will be punished by General Zhen - just kill it, it's a big deal to defend it by the base, and there will not be too much danger.

So they took the lead and went to the north shore first. Liu Mian saw that the reinforcements of the Jin army had arrived, and estimated that there were a lot of them, so he hurriedly turned around and ran. If he doesn't escape, it's just that, as soon as this banner is gone, Yang Qing saw it, and immediately led the troops to chase after it - this general has been bumpy for half his life, and he has long wanted to find an opportunity to fight a good battle and kill a defeated deserter!
