Guo Heiluo misjudged the number of Jin troops and was forced to rush into the Jin formation. Wei Cainai first defended strictly, and after the enemy was exhausted, Fang Shi launched a counterattack - Guo Hei was slightly defeated and fled back to Ji County in panic.

Fortunately, at this time, Zhang Bin's main force had also arrived in Ji County, and he hurriedly sent troops to respond. But he did not retreat back into the copper pass, but dug a trench and set up a fortress in front of the pass to expand his foothold as much as possible.

Zhang Bin personally rode a horse to watch, and couldn't help but be terrified when he saw this, and said to the left and right: "Zu Tiguo wants to transfer the army to Tongguan, looking for a gap to smash my heart, if I am a step late, I am afraid that Jijun will be difficult to defend...... Because looking at the posture of the Jin people, it is clear that they are preparing for more soldiers and horses to land on the shore!

As he spoke, he saw from afar that there were boats on the river, three stories high, with a female wall outside, all filled with soldiers, and banners all over the place. Seeing this, the general did not change color, and said one after another: "I have heard that the southerners are good at boating, and the Yangtze River is a natural danger, so I don't want to be able to travel this giant boat even on the big river......

In this year, although the Yellow River was also turbid, it was not as muddy as in later generations, and the ship was in difficulty - the soil erosion in Guanzhong must first reach a certain extent, and the navigation environment of the Yellow River would be greatly damaged - plus Zu Ti knew that Shi Zhao did not have a naval army, so he did not plan to fight with the other party on the water at all, but could unload all the unnecessary equipment on the boat and use it completely to carry soldiers, horses, and materials.

Besides, from Mengjin to Tongguan, it will be a one-day voyage soon, even if the safety of the ship is a little worse, how big a basket can it be? I took the risk!

The key is that he knows that Zhang Bin is in Chaoge, and he is deeply afraid that he will defeat Wei Gai in advance and regain Tongguan, and his entire plan will be completely blown up at that time. Therefore, as soon as the information was obtained, all the remaining buildings were dispatched first. After that, there are still clippers and civilian ships that have been temporarily mobilized, and the smallest ones are no more than a dozen soldiers, so there is no hurry, and the next batch will be released.

The main force of the Jin army landed one after another, and Zhang Mengsun was close at hand, because the other party had Tongguan as a threat, so he didn't dare to attack - it was estimated that there was no chance of winning. had to retreat to Ji County, hoping to block tens of thousands of Jin troops in a space less than thirty miles south of the county seat, waiting for the situation to change.

After landing on the shore, he set up a camp near Tongguan to rest his troops and horses—mostly northerners, who drifted on the boat all day, and it was enough to bear—temporarily unable to go north to Jixian to confront the Qianjun army. However, the five thousand people of Wei's department were all brave men who could barely take a boat in the selection army, and they had landed for three days, and they had defeated Guo Heiluo, all of them were full of energy and full of morale.

The topography of Jijun is high in the north and low in the south - the north is the Taihang remnant vein, up to Linxi, and the southern third is purely plain. This third of the plain is divided by Qingshui, Chaoge and Gongxian are in Shuibei, and Jixian, Huojia and Xiuwu are in Shuinan.

Zhang Bin knew that if the Jin army did not break through Qingshui, it would be impossible to bypass Jixian and go north to Xiangguo, so westward expansion was the only choice in the short term. So as soon as he saw that the Jin division had moved, he ordered Li Yang, the general of Shouyi, to lead his troops to intercept it.

This Li Yang was originally a fellow villager of Shile. When Shi Le claimed the throne, he ordered people to go to his hometown Shangdangwu Township, to bring the old and old to Xiangguo - just like Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, said that the emperor returned to Pei County, and the elders of the conference were general, just because the world was undecided, Shi Le was inconvenient to leave Xiangguo, so he took the villagers over to entertain - sit and drink. Zhong Shile asked: "My neighbor Li Yang is a strong man, why didn't he come?" The old people smiled and said, "He is afraid that the king will kill him, where dare he come......"

Shi Le and Li Yang originally had a feud, and the two families lived next to each other, fighting for three days in order to compete for the pool of water. Shi Le hated Li Yang deeply in the past, but now that his status is high and his heart is broad-minded, he naturally will no longer take Chen Sesame and Rotten Grain's personal grievances to heart - the main thing is that you are a prince, go and get angry with the common people, and you will not be ashamed! So he ordered someone to pick up Li Yang, Shi Le pulled the other party's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Lonely in the past, I am tired of Qing's old fist, and Qing is also full of lonely poisonous hands." ”

Immediately rewarded a mansion in Xiangguo City, and worshiped Li Yang as the captain of the army. Soon after, Shi Le ascended the throne, and Li Yang was also promoted to miscellaneous general.

Before Zhang Bin left this time, Shi Le took care of him and said: "Li Yang, it's like my teeth......

The Marquis Yongya of Shifang in the Western Han Dynasty was originally a fellow villager of Gaozu Liu Bang, but he betrayed Liu Bang many times. Later, in order to show his mercy, Liu Bang completely forgave the sin of Yongya regardless of old grievances. Shi Le is now comparing Li Yang to Yongya, that is, telling Zhang Bin, I want to take this person as an example in order to attract people's hearts.

"Therefore, if you have the opportunity to go on this expedition, you might as well make Li Yang make meritorious service."

Zhang Bin considered that it was not difficult to garrison Jiada County, so he ordered Li Yang to lead his troops to help. Li Yang was indeed very brave, and fought fiercely with Wei Cai under the city, taking the lead, and even being attacked by two arrows and not retreating; But after all, he joined the army halfway, and in terms of experience in commanding soldiers and horses, he was far inferior to Wei Gai, and finally retreated into the city. Immediately landed in the city to defend, Wei should try to attack, but could not overcome, so he had to temporarily retreat.

When Wei should return to Tongguan in Huojia County, the main force of the Jin army was almost rested, so he immediately marched forward and approached Ji County. Zhang Bin went out of the city to fight, and he couldn't win—after all, he was born as a strategist, commanded in battle, and didn't see his strengths—he couldn't help but sigh: "If there is no general in charge, he can't destroy the Jin division in person." "Send someone to Xiangguo in a hurry, and ask Shile to send another general over, the president of the three armies.

Because among the current army, there are many brave men, among which the oldest and most tasteful is Guo Heiluo, one of the "eighteen horsemen" who started Shile, but they are not as able to practice as Kong Chang, Jiao'an, Wang Yang, and Zhixiong.

The two armies confronted each other from afar, and the ancestor of the middle of the time divided his troops to the east and captured Sanjin, but then he wanted to cross the Qingshui to the north, but Zhang Bin saw through it, and sent the king to set up an ambush in Fangtou to repel the invading Jin division.

——————————

Zhang Bin didn't expect to be able to use the waterway to transport troops, so he missed it once and lost the first move; In contrast, Shi Hu naturally had such a string in his head than him.

The main reason is that Shi Le was building a ship in Weibin at the beginning, and Zhang Bin did not even look at it because he opposed the strategy of going east along the river to seek a healthy future. Shi Hu not only went to see it, but was also instigated by Pei Gai - in fact, it was deceived - to take a boat to attack the Jin fortress, but he was ambushed at the mouth of the giant spirit, and almost lost his life......

And for some reason, Shi Hu collected information about Pei Gai everywhere, and he also had a relatively detailed understanding of Tao Kanzhou's plan to intercept the water in the gutter back then.

Therefore, after slaughtering Luzi City, Shi Hu turned around and attacked Gucheng again, but was stunned to find that he had gnawed a hard bone...... The key is that his soldiers and horses are limited, not more than 10,000 - Cao Bing is not counted - the city defenders are more than their own, Wei Ce is the general of Jin, and Xu Gong is also brave, but he attacked for three days in a row, and lost his troops in vain, but there was no progress. Shi Hunai planned to use the ship to transport troops from Jishui, and after going around to Gucheng, he cut off his grain route.

But after all, he made a temporary decision, just like when Shile garrisoned Ge Pi, and when he was building a ship in Weibin, it was definitely too late to build a ship now, and he collected nearby civilian ships, and he got a total of more than a dozen small boats. Shi Hu saw that Wei Ce and Xu Gong only dared to stick to it and refused to fight, so he was bold and handed over the military power to Huyanmo, and took three hundred warriors to cross Jishui first in a small boat and broke through the Qing Pavilion.

Qingting is just a market town with little protection, and then to the west, it is the famous city of Jibei Dong'a, and Shi Hu does not dare to hit it easily. After turning back to the ship, he went back up and attacked the lower gathering behind Gucheng.

It's just that although Xiaju is located on the transportation channel of the Jin army in Gucheng, it is also like the Qing Pavilion, and it has no protective power in itself, so it is impossible for Shi Hu to stay here for a long time and cut off the enemy's grain transportation - if he stays longer, it is estimated that Wei Ce will send thousands of troops to come, and it is possible to capture Shi Hu alive.

Shi Hu is really bold, so he simply crossed the water again, and went all the way to the west to kill and plunder, and all the villages he passed through were slaughtered, and the chickens and dogs were not left. Immediately, it bypassed Fan County and approached Yanzhou's old Zhiqiu.

After Cai Bao received the letter, he hurriedly sent the general to lead 2,000 soldiers and horses to rescue, but it was broken by Shi Hu in the south of the hill, and the pet was killed in battle. When the news spread, the people of Dongping and Puyang were panicked, and the people all helped the old and the young to escape into the county seats......

When Cai Bao received the report of defeat, he couldn't help but be shocked, and said in his heart, did Shi Hu really only bring a few hundred people over? If there are only hundreds, how can you defeat the two thousand soldiers and horses that remain pet? They will be followed by an army of them! It happened that Zu Ti occupied Sanjin on the north bank of the river, and Cai Baonai was not afraid of the southern crossing of the Qian army, so he hurriedly led the army to Xiaqiu - but Shi Hu had already withdrawn.

Almost at the same time, the news of the fall of Lu Zicheng and the death festival of Huan Xuan, as well as the impeachment of Wei Ce and Xu Gong, were handed to Luoyang on the front and back feet. Sima Ye posthumously presented Huan Xuanting with the title of lieutenant, and gave him the title of "Qi", and then asked the ministers, Cai Bao is guilty or not, should he be punished?

Xun Group said: "Cai Shixuan Gong Wei Sanjin, do not refrain from saving Lu Zi, although the death of Huan Zi is pitiful, but it is not Shixuan's responsibility." "It is recommended that the edict order Cai Bao to hurriedly move his army eastward, merge with Wei Ce and others, and defeat the invading Qian army.

Zuna said: "In the matter of military disputes, you should ask the hussar general, since the imperial court has entrusted the heavy responsibility of the imperial court, it is not appropriate to issue an edict." ”

Xun Group said that when Zu Ti saw that he was in Ji County, the affairs of Hebei would naturally be coordinated by him, and as for the war in Henan, if he passed by him again, he would be afraid of delaying the military aircraft!

Zu Nanai asked for the opinion of Shangshu Yin Qiao - Yin Qiao had followed Guo Mo to fight in Hanoi in the past, although he was only a staff officer, he could be regarded as a war, unlike his ancestor Shiyan, who did not lead a soldier or hold a weapon in his life.

As for Xun Group, Xun Song, etc., they have also led soldiers in theory, but for the military talents of those people, Zu Shiyan can only "hehehe" in his heart.

Yin Qiao didn't want to say much, until Zu Na asked, then he got up and suggested: "Order Cai to make Jun Tun's troops in the area of Liaoqiu and Fan County to support Gucheng, and not to make it rush to Gucheng." ”

Why don't you let Cai Bao go directly to save Xiaqiu? Yin Qiao explained: "Shi Hu is a thief and a fierce general, although the department is outnumbered, but it is an elite, if the plain is a duel, I am afraid that only Pei and Zu Ergong can break it." General Jinwei and others held Gucheng, so that Shi Hu did not dare to go west, although he was occasionally harassed, he was not harmed in the overall situation. And even if Gucheng is lost, Cai will make Jun recover in Liqiu and Fan County to stop it, and it can also make it impossible to penetrate into Yanzhou.

"However, if Cai Envoy arrives in Gucheng in front of the army, the army is strong, the generals will be arrogant, and the pressure on the grain will increase, and most of them will come out and fight with Shihu. However, the ministers are afraid that they are not the enemies of Shihu, and if there are many defeats in the field, there will be few victories, and once the army is defeated, Yanbei will no longer be able to resist the army of thieves, and the situation in Henan will be ...... erosion."

Zuna nodded again and again and said, "What Yin Shangshu said is true. However, since this is the case, the imperial court does not need to issue an edict to Cai Shixuan, and the hussar general will see that he is in Ji County, and he will definitely be able to seek to seize Jindu and take care of the war in Henan. ”

In fact, he doesn't understand military affairs, but he just thinks that military orders should be unified, and it is better to leave them all to my brother, so let's not follow the back and make random ideas.

Xun Group refused to give in, saying: "After all, the big river is blocked, and the war in Henan, I'm afraid it will be difficult for the hussar general to take care of it." And if you keep Gucheng for a long time and can't retreat from the enemy, the people of all counties and counties in Yanzhou will be horrified, which will damage the prestige of the imperial court! ”

The main reason is that even if the Xun group whitewashes it, after all, Cai Bao, as a Yanzhou assassin, lost his land and lost his life, no matter what the reason and hardship, it is impossible to completely erase the responsibility. Cai Bao is a party of the Xun Group, and he recommended him to serve as the assassin of Yanzhou, so he wants Cai Bao to attack and make meritorious contributions, and he will be punished, so that he can be completely unaccountable in the future.

Seeing this opportunity, Liang Fen looked at Xun Song, Xun Jingyou understood, and immediately proposed: "The main force of the Chinese army is all in Hebei, and they want to break through the Qiankou in one fell swoop and advance into Xiangguo, and Henan is only a foreign army in various states and counties." As Yin Shangshu said, the combat strength of the foreign army is weak, and the more people gather, the more uneven it becomes, it is difficult to stop Shi Hu, let alone repel it? Why didn't Your Majesty issue an edict and ask Da Sima to come to the aid of a division to reject Shi Hu. There are more than 100 generals under the command of Da Sima, and Cai Shixuan and others are also comparable. ”

Xun Group was displeased and said: "Could it be that in Luoyang City, there is no longer anything to care about, and you want to travel thousands of miles to ask for help from Guanzhong?" ”

Xun Song retorted: "The army of Guanxi Xingtai, defeated Liu Can, recovered Pingyang, and annihilated Hu Kou, since it is so strong, why not use it?" And the Chinese army is all under the command of the hussar general, and all the generals can be under its curtain. That is, the existing five schools, and the seven armies that the Taiwei wants to recover, are all unable to fight because it is difficult to recruit generals. "You can be anyone, but you can recommend someone to come out.

Xun Group couldn't help but be speechless.

I thought that the Xun brothers originally kept Sima Ye and wanted to pull the flag in Henan, but Sima Ye was abducted by a vote of Kansai, leaving the Xun family alone, and the army was declining, and finally forced to abandon Henan and flee to Jiangbin; Therefore, the few people who can fight under his hands are either killed one after another, or they all run away, and no one can accumulate merit and be promoted to more than a thousand stones. At present, the basic plate of the Xun group is still the taxi who left Jiangdong before and returned to the north one after another, and the subordinates who put it in, if this ticket can be played, will it be necessary to escape so far at the beginning?

Kansai and Xu Fang's warriors are both under Pei Gai; Yan and Yu Neng's warriors are all under the command of Zu Li...... If it weren't for that, the Xun group wouldn't want to reach out and grab military power. Now he really can't come up with anyone to reinforce Gucheng, there are indeed warriors in the house, but they are all in the nature of their own troops, how can they jump to become a general?

The Western Party thus gained the upper hand.
