Qianshan, Liu Liangzuo is also very sad, he has been stationed in the north of the river all these years, although this place is still very safe and healthy compared with the Central Plains, but over the years the fifth battalion of the left has been gathering in the mountains and forests at the junction of Huguang and Nanzhili, from time to time to come out to make a fuss, grab some food and drink, grab and leave, not entangled with him at all, he is also controversial, but the court is still very important to him, although he has not achieved any big achievements, but he has not been punished.

Zhang Xianzhong led the army to attack Qianshan with great momentum, Liu Liangzuo also immediately sent people to Huang Degong for help, among the nearby soldiers and horses, only Huang Degong had the strength to reinforce him, and the soldiers and horses of the rest of the prefectures and counties were all used to defend the city, first, there was no combat effectiveness, and secondly, these people were not something he could command, which was under the jurisdiction of the governor of Anqing.

Zhang Xianzhong's soldiers and horses are stationed on the east bank of Anhui River, looking at Qianshan County, Zhang Xianzhong's purpose is not here, now what he hopes most is to jump out of the encirclement, but Zhang Xianzhong is also very clear that he can't leave easily, once he easily evacuates, the officers and soldiers will follow behind, and there will inevitably be a rout and escape at that time, most of these soldiers and horses are just recruited by him, and the combat effectiveness is not strong, and the tens of thousands of people in his headquarters are OK, and the rest of Zhang Xianzhong is just to make a momentum, and he doesn't expect them to play much of a role, at the critical moment, That's cannon fodder.

"Garrisoned in the hidden mountain is the Ming court chief soldier Liu Liangzuo, this person is timid and afraid, although there are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, but the battle is weak, disturb the people, want to take the hidden mountain, it is not a difficult thing, in fact, the biggest threat is Huang Degong's reinforcements, just got the service to report, Huang Degong's tens of thousands of horses have arrived in Guanyin Port, according to us only more than 40 miles, if we attack the hidden mountain, Huang Degong will definitely rescue, Huang Degong and Liu Liangzuo are different, this person is brave and good at fighting, can not be entangled by him, and our back, There are also Cao Bianjiao's people, for Cao Bianjiao, most of you present know it, this person is very poisonous, he followed his uncle Cao Wenzhao back then, killed how many of our rebel brothers, Red Army friends, Li Dusi, Du San, Yang Laochai and others, they were all killed by their uncles and nephews, this Cao Bianjiao was only in his early twenties, he was Cao Wenzhao's vanguard, very powerful, if we were entangled by Huang Degong, when Cao Bianjiao killed from behind, we would be in danger......"

In Zhang Xianzhong's camp, he was discussing the next plan with his subordinates, the evacuation was certain, so many days, they had captured so many cities, and the looted things were enough for them to use for a while, and they were not worried about the future days, the most important thing at the moment was how to jump out peacefully and go to the periphery to fight.

"The current situation is really not optimistic, father-in-law, please see, Cao Bianjiao, Liu Liangzuo, Huang Degong, add up to tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, they have become a triangle, one side has something, the other two parties can rescue at any time, but if we can't break through a little, it is difficult to jump out, it is really a thorny problem."

Zhang Xianzhong also bowed slightly, it was his righteous son Li Dingguo who spoke, he was taken in by Zhang Xianzhong when he was a teenager, and he followed him to the north and south for more than ten years, and he has also grown into a general in his army, Zhang Xianzhong is also very respectful and trustworthy to him.

"That's true, but right now the hidden mountain is in front of you, among the three forces, Liu Liangzuo's soldiers and horses are the weakest, I will wait until they have not formed an encirclement of us, and take the hidden mountain with lightning speed, as long as Liu Liangzuo is defeated, the rest of the people will lose their support, and then we can jump out!" Zhang Xianzhong's other son, Ai Nengqi, also spoke.

Zhang Xianzhong listened to everyone's analysis and narration, and also agreed, and said: "What you said is right, a Huang Degong, we can still deal with it, after all, we still have more than 100,000 troops, but there are no less than 40,000 soldiers, and we can fight a battle. ”

Zhang Xianzhong understands very well that persimmons must be pinched softly, at this time, Liu Liangzuo is a soft persimmon, among the three people, Zhang Xianzhong is the most unwilling to face Cao Bianjiao, not to mention that Cao Bianjiao has just defeated the fifth battalion of Gezuo, even He Jin surrendered to Cao Bianjiao, and became Cao Bianjiao's deputy commander-in-chief, as far as the previous record is concerned, it is all resounding, Zhang Xianzhong has a trace of jealousy of Cao Bianjiao in his heart.

"In that case, then attack at night, they definitely didn't expect that we would take advantage of the night to raid and catch him off guard!" In the end, Zhang Xianzhong decided on the matter, assigned their respective tasks to everyone, and agreed to launch an offensive tonight.

At this time, Cao Bianjiao has already arrived at the North Gorge Pass in Tongcheng, this way, Cao Bianjiao's mood is very good, although he did not get the military supplies he wants, but his little uncle Cao Wenyao and his cousin Cao Dingjiao rushed from his hometown in Datong, Shanxi Province to help him, and also brought a thousand soldiers, which Cao Bianjiao did not expect.

After Cao Wenzhao died in battle, Cao Wenyao took Cao Dingjiao to resign and returned to his hometown in Shanxi, on the one hand, he was disappointed in the imperial court, Cao Wenzhao fought bravely to kill the enemy in order to suppress thieves, and made many meritorious deeds, and finally did not even get a nickname, the Cao family felt uncomfortable in their hearts, on the other hand, the court was seriously overturned, worried that the Cao family would not end up well, so only Cao Bianjiao stayed in the army, Cao Wenyao took Cao Dingjiao back to his hometown Datong, and now they came, undoubtedly gave Cao Bianjiao great support, Although there are not many people, they are soldiers, and the degree of loyalty is self-evident, and they have a few more trusted people to help, so they can better show their hands and feet.

There is also the old department of Li Guoqi also led the army to join him, Li Guoqi was the deputy general of Cao Wenzhao that year, last year in September, Fu Zonglong led the Sichuan Shaanxi soldiers and Baoding Governor Yang Wenyue to rendezvous, Li Guoqi is Fu Zonglong's general, I didn't expect them to be in Mengjiazhuang for Li Zicheng, Luo Rucai sneak attack, Li Guoqi was defeated, after Li Guoqi packed up the remnants of the army and went to Xiangcheng, Fu Zonglong ordered He Renlong and others to rescue quickly, Li Guoqi was worried that this matter was false, plus just defeated, there was no ability to fight again, so there was no rescue, But after being stationed in Chenzhou and learning the news of Cao Bianjiao's victory over the Fifth Battalion of the Revolution, Li Guoqi did not hesitate to lead the remnants of the soldiers and horses to join Cao Bianjiao, and Cao Bianjiao suddenly had thousands of more men and horses, and his strength went to a higher level.

Up to now, Cao Bianjiao is to have soldiers, to have generals, to deal with Zhang Xianzhong, he is more sure, so when he made up his mind to send troops, he led the infantry cavalry to leave Hefei, leaving only Liu Zhaosun 3,000 men and horses to defend the city, after all, Jiang Zhu still has soldiers and horses, can be received at any time, the rest of the soldiers and horses, Cao Bianjiao is brought out, let them see blood, his courage is stronger, to deal with Zhang Xianzhong, he is not worried about anything.
