"There are not many soldiers and horses in our army, I only need a thousand! The rest of the Elite Cavalry can be used on frontal battlefields. ”

Zhao Yun came out of the column and clenched his fists and said, full of confidence.

"There are 2,000 personal guard cavalry under my command, plus 2,000 dragon cavalry, and there will not be too many under Li Dao and Guo Yan. I know Zilong's ability, and it is not impossible for one person to enter and exit seven times among the five thousand cavalry. But the soldiers are changing, and it is better to be cautious. Annihilate the 5,000 cavalry of Huayin City, and then come and join me! ”

Liu Fan praised Zhao Yun.

"No! Zhao Yunding will live up to his mission! ”

Zhao Yun was not shocked by the humiliation, and led the order.

"Bai Lan is a young talent, and he is familiar with the terrain of Guanzhong, and he is too condescending to be my personal guard. I will make him a lieutenant, and I will listen to orders under you for the time being. ”

Liu Fan pointed at Bai Lan and said to Zhao Yun.

"The clouds can't ask for it!"

Zhao Yun opened his mouth and said.

"Thank you to the prime minister!"

Bai Lan thanked Liu Fan.

"Hmmm! Everything is according to the plan! After I pacified Guan Longxi Liang, those who made high achievements were all crowned marquis. ”

Liu Fan encouraged his subordinates.

"Swear to die to serve the prime minister!"

All the generals are faithful.

Liu Fan also sent someone to inform Gao Shun of Fenglingdu, and when the cavalry in Huayin City left, he immediately led the trapping camp and his subordinates to surround Huayin.

The entire territory of Hongnong will be recovered and an end will be drawn.

Half an hour later, the army set up camp, under the leadership of Liu Fan, 20,000 paces, and passed by the north of Huayin City.

On the city wall on the north city of Huayin, the soldiers of Xiliang looked at each other.

"This is to despise us, to regard Huayin Jiancheng as nothing. If it weren't for their numbers, I would have fought them to the death. ”

Hu Feng gritted his teeth hatefully.

"The general can't be reckless, the enemy infantry is not very good, but the cavalry are all freshly dressed and angry horses, I heard that this kind of armor is Mingguang armor, which is lighter than the armor, but the defense is not weak at all than the armor, ordinary bows, arrows, knives and guns are difficult to pierce, Liu Fanjun's soldiers wearing this armor are brave and good at fighting, and the general must not go out of the city and fight a decisive battle with it."

Left and right said to Hu Feng.

"I see, no wonder Liu Fanjun dared to enter the customs with such a small number of soldiers and horses."

Hu Feng said suddenly.

"Not good! That's ......"

A Xiliang rider stared at him and pointed hundreds of feet away.

I saw that in the marching procession hundreds of zhang away, a group of cavalry with red feathers and red clothes and black armor rushed under the city.

"It's the Dragonbird...... Liu Fan's guard! The dragon bird is here, Liu Fan must be there! ”

Another person answered, and his heart palpitated.

The first battle of the Tiger Prison is too famous, and the first battle of the pond is even more terrifying.

The soldiers of Xiliang have seen or heard it, and they all know that there are several elite soldiers under Liu Fan's command.

And the Dragon Bird Guard is the best soldier among the elite soldiers, no matter where Liu Fan goes, he will take it.

It is rumored that Liu Fan is invincible and invincible. The murderous Hu people were also overwhelmed by Liu Fan's beating.

In recent years, he has left too many legends.

The prestige has become a deterrent, and without the support of strong military strength, he can't straighten his waist in front of Liu Fan's soldiers and horses.

"Liu Fan, don't you see the opportunity! Liu Fan is the ruler of the dynasty, controlling hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses, and tens of millions of people! If Liu Fan dies in Xiliang, his uncle will be able to re-attack the Central Plains and take over Liu Fan's forces. And then dominate the world! If then, think about it, what kind of credit do we have? ”

After Hu Feng reacted, he said ambitiously.

"Relying only on the soldiers and horses in Huayin City, if you want to kill Liu Fan, it is more difficult than ascending to the sky!"

The rider shook his head and sighed.

Liu Fan is not only the prime minister, but also the world's number one fierce general, just to take Liu Fan, you have to have hundreds of cavalry, not to mention that Liu Fan has always been protected by guards.

"Liu Fan went west and didn't take us in his eyes. His soldiers and horses are not many, my uncle and others can still gather more than 30,000 soldiers and horses in Guanzhong, when Liu Fan and his uncle fought, I led Huayin's cavalry to break through his rear, and he will be able to mess with his army, and then cooperate with his uncle to attack it, so that he can not take care of each other, at that time, we are all founding heroes! It is said that Liu Fan knows the soldiers, but now he is careless and has committed a taboo in the soldiers, so I seized the opportunity. ”

Hu Feng whispered happily.

"No! If the general is like this, he is also guilty of a taboo. ”

The rider immediately retorted.

"Humph! What do you know about the art of war? ”

Seeing that he was questioned, Hu Feng's face was unhappy.

"Know yourself and know your opponent, and you will not be defeated in a hundred battles! If Liu Fan lures us, our city will be ruined! We don't know anything about Liu Fanjun! ”

The rider insisted.

"Liu Fan only has more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, how can we not know the bottom? Then you said, if I don't sneak attack Liu Fan's rear, how much can my uncle win? ”

Hu Feng questioned the horseman.

"In the past, Dong Gong was defeated, but now it is difficult to win!"

The rider said truthfully.

"If Liu Fan wins, what should our army do?"

Hu Feng asked again.

"Lonely city, the end of the aid is the end of the food!"

The rider will return.

"I ordered to sneak attack Liu Fan's rear to gain an opportunity, why should you question it?"

Hu Feng asked rhetorically.

The rider thought for a moment, but could no longer speak.

"Send spies out of the city to see if you can find out Liu Fan's movements. Today's cavalry recuperates, and tomorrow morning, they will go out of Huayin City to look for opportunities! ”

Seeing that the rider was speechless, Hu Feng nodded to himself and ordered to his subordinates.

……

Changan.

"Alas! I thought that Guanzhong was connected with mountains and rivers, and there was a risk of four stops, relying on the fertile land, you could enjoy glory and wealth. I didn't expect Liu Fan to attack so quickly! I hope that the land of Shanxi and the princes of Shandong can contain most of Liu Fan's soldiers and horses, otherwise we will die without a place to be buried! ”

In Weishuinan, Li Wei rode on his horse and sighed.

"Liu Fan entered the customs, and his achievements fell short!"

Guo Yan didn't want to face Liu Fan anymore, but there was nothing he could do.

Hu Zhen and Yang Ding mutinied. Li Dao, Guo Yan thought that Liu Fan was concentrating on pacifying Shanxi, but he didn't expect to suddenly attack Hangu, and with Hu Zhen as the internal response, he broke into Hangu Pass. Something amazing was done.

Fortunately, Li Wei sent cavalry to reinforce Huayin in time, otherwise there would be nothing to defend along the way, and Liu Fan could go straight to Chang'an.

It was precisely because Hu Feng occupied Huayin that Li Dao and Guo Yan had to go to support.

They didn't want to wait for Liu Fanbing to come to Chang'an, defend Chang'an City, and sit still.

In addition to leading the 20,000 soldiers and horses in Chang'an, Li Dao and Guo Yan also gathered 10,000 soldiers and horses around Chang'an.

Li Dao transferred back the 5,000 cavalry that had gone to chase Yang Ding.

Because Yang Ding went to Lantian Valley, the cavalry did not find Yang Ding's figure at all, so they returned in vain.

Even if he realized that Yang Ding had gone to attack Wuguan, Li Dao had no choice.

The strength is limited, and he hopes that Liu Fan will not be able to capture Huayin and retreat in the face of difficulties. Then go and deal with Yang Ding and the enemy army from Wuguan.

30,000 infantry, 5,000 cavalry. This is almost all the troops that Li Dao and Guo Yan can transfer, and the troops of Fufeng and Feng Yi are too late to be recruited, and even if they are transferred, it will not help.

When Liu Fan passed Huayin, Li Dao and Guo Yan led their troops and horses out of Chang'an's river network.

There were infantry on both sides. Zheng County, most likely the place of the encounter.
