In the tent, Guo Zhongxun put the letter on the bookcase and said: "Hangzhou has fallen, but fortunately Taifu escaped." Now that Taifu has retreated to Anji Prefecture, he just sent someone to send an order to the general, asking the general to recover Hangzhou City within ten days. Otherwise, he will play the impeachment of Ben General's decision-making mistakes, and he is the culprit for the loss of Hangzhou City! ”

When Han Shizhong heard this, he immediately shouted for Guo Zhongxun and said: "Hangzhou City was not lost in the hands of the general, not to mention that Lord Taifu sent the general out of the city to suppress bandits, how can he blame the general for losing the city!" ”

Guo Zhongxun shouted: "Okay, there is no need to say this kind of thing. I summoned you here to ask you, how do you think we can recover the city of Hangzhou? ”

When Han Shizhong heard this, he frowned and said, "General, now our army knows nothing about the gang of thieves who captured Hangzhou City. It was too dangerous to attack like this, and the last general thought that it was imperative to find out as soon as possible who these bandits were, and how many soldiers and horses there were. What is the connection with those thieves who steal rice and rob the squires! The art of war is cloudy: only by knowing oneself and knowing the other can one not be defeated! ”

Guo Zhongxun sighed and said, "I also know, but Master Taifu gave us ten days, and we must recover Hangzhou City within ten days!" ”

"General, the city of Hangzhou is thick with high walls, if there are a lot of thieves in that gang, it will be too difficult to conquer Hangzhou City in just ten days!" Han Shizhong shouted.

Guo Zhongxun saw that Han Shizhong couldn't think of a way for a while, so he had to say. "It seems that for the sake of today's plan, we can only send people to inquire about the news of Hangzhou City while marching towards Hangzhou City!"

Han Shizhong pondered for a moment and said, "General, judging from this series of actions in a short period of time, those thieves are not ordinary grass bandits. There must be scheming among them. General Chen Song was ambushed by the thieves, which would lead to a great defeat. To go to Hangzhou City, you need to pass through a place, where there are reeds on both sides and Tibetan people. If our army also rashly advances, and when our army is halfway through, the thief suddenly kills out, and our army will inevitably suffer heavy losses. In the opinion of the last general, it is better to divide the army into three teams. The last general led 2,000 troops as the front army, surveying along the road to ensure the safe passage of the army! ”

Guo Zhongxun nodded when he heard it and said, "This plan is very good, just according to your words!" ”

After repairing in Huangjia Village for a night, Guo Zhongxun divided the army into three teams.

Han Shizhong led 2,000 soldiers and horses to the front army, Guo Zhongxun led 5,000 soldiers and horses as the middle army, and appointed another deputy general, Cao Bin, to lead 3,000 soldiers as the rear army.

The three armies were separated by five miles, echoing before and after.

There is a stone bridge forty miles away from Hangzhou City, which is the only way for Haiyan to go to Hangzhou City. Both sides of the stone bridge are dense reeds, and it is not difficult to hide one or two thousand people.

When Han Shizhong passed by, he called five hundred men to carefully check the reeds on both sides of the road.

After making sure that there were no ambushes, Han Shizhong sent one of his men to run to report to the general Guo Zhongxun, and he continued to lead his men forward.

When Guo Zhongxun heard that there were no ambushes, he immediately moved forward with peace of mind.

After safely crossing the important garrison point of the stone bridge, Han Shizhong was a little surprised.

Why didn't these thieves send someone to stop them?

If you send a few thousand people to block you from the other side of the stone bridge, even if you can defeat the enemy army, you will have to pay a lot of casualties.

Han Shizhong thought to himself: Could it be that I overestimated this gang of thieves?

Just as Han Shizhong, suddenly the spies who were exploring the way in front ran back and shouted: "General, there are thieves stationed three miles ahead!" ”

When Han Shizhong heard this, he immediately shouted, "How many thieves are there?" ”

In addition to finding out the news and surveying the terrain, the spies in the army must also know some military skills and be able to roughly estimate the number of enemy troops they see, otherwise what do they want spies to do!

The Song army spies hurriedly replied: "General Hui, there are about 5,000 thieves in those gangs!" ”

When Han Shizhong heard it, he felt a little strange. Why is there no one on the other side of the stone bridge to stop it, but someone was sent here to stop it!

He asked cautiously, "Can you carefully examine the terrain around the thief, is there an ambush?" Is there anything out of the ordinary? ”

The spy shook his head and said, "The little one has carefully observed, and there are all flat and open fields around there. What's more, the rice has been harvested, and there is no place to hide it! There's nothing out of the ordinary! ”

Han Shizhong felt even more puzzled when he heard it.

The terrain around Hangzhou City is actually familiar to Han Shizhong. The place the spies spoke of was all flat land, and there was no place to hide.

I'll ask the spies, but I just want to make sure.

What are these thieves trying to do? Could it be that these thieves are arrogant and think that they can defeat 10,000 of my officers and soldiers with just 5,000 men?

Han Shizhong couldn't think of anything, so he could only turn around and shout: "Envoy Zhao, you can send someone to inform the general." Ask him to lead the army to join our army and attack the thieves together! ”

"Order!" Zhao Junenvoy hurriedly shouted.

received the news from Han Shizhong, Guo Zhongxun was also very surprised. He also wondered why the gang of thieves didn't stop him on the side of the stone bridge, but they wanted to stop him in front.

Although he was puzzled, Guo Zhongxun still led his troops to join Han Shizhong, and even asked Cao Bin to step up the march to meet him by himself.

Although the other party only had about 5,000 soldiers and horses, Guo Zhongxun still felt that it was better to be cautious.

He is ready to bully more and less, defeat the other party, catch a few tongues alive, and find out where these thieves are sacred.

Soon, the three armies reunited.

Guo Zhongxun was very careful, and 10,000 Song soldiers lined up in formation and slowly advanced towards the thieves.

The closer he got, the more strange Guo Zhongxun felt.

These thieves don't seem to take their 10,000 officers and soldiers seriously at all. There was no harassment, no temptation, but he stood there quietly and waited.

Walk slowly, Guo Zhongxun led the Song army to march to a distance of more than 300 steps from the thief, and he just wanted to call Han Shizhong to shout.

Suddenly, the five thousand thieves in front of him suddenly shouted in a panic, and then turned around and ran away with a bang.

Guo Zhongxun was stunned when he saw the scene in front of him.

This...... What's the situation?

Are they scared when they see that there are so many of us?

Or is it a trick to lure our army into an ambush?

But you didn't even fight, and just ran away. It's really alarming!

Guo Zhongxun frowned and shouted, "Han Wulang, you lead your subordinates to test and see what the thieves' intentions are!" ”

Han Shizhong hurriedly shouted: "Get the order!" ”

Han Shizhong just wanted to drink his subordinates and keep up.

Suddenly, he heard a loud bang, and then his eyes went dark!
