"Tell all the marshals, Marshal Guo is leading the soldiers and horses in front."

The herald rushed to Li Dao and Guo Yan and said.

"It's still a long way from Black Eagle Ridge, why is Guo Yan here? Invite him over! ”

Li Wei frowned, and said to the herald, with a bad premonition in his heart.

The rest of the handsomes all looked at each other.

After a while, Guo Yan, Cheng Yin and others, who looked haggard and embarrassed, came to Han Sui, Li Wei and others.

"Why?"

Han Sui stared at Guo Yan and asked.

"Attack Black Eagle Ridge is not down. Guo Shuai ordered a strong breakthrough, and the enemy's plan suffered heavy losses. The enemy pursued and killed all the way, and our army was defeated. Of the 30,000 soldiers and horses, only 12,000 remained. ”

Before Guo Yan could reply, Cheng Yin preemptively said.

"Good! Guo Dashuai, the 32 soldiers under your command, dared to lose nearly 20,000 people in the first battle. ”

After Han Sui heard this, he immediately sarcastically said to Guo Yan.

As soon as Han Sui's voice fell, many questioning eyes came.

The image of one of the four handsome Guo Yan immediately collapsed.

"It's hard to be a talent in a school. Thou shalt only lead one colonel's soldiers and horses. Each of us is a Liangzhou warrior, because of your decision, so many people have died in battle, it is not worth it. ”

Ma Teng said that he also wanted to take the opportunity to bring Guo Yan down.

"Ladies and gentlemen, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers. It's a bit too much to take one person in one battle! Ma Chao and Pang De wiped out 15,000 warriors at Longguan, and no one asked them for their crimes. ”

At this time, Li Dao opened his mouth and sneered at Ma Teng.

Guo Yan is his important ally, how can Li Dao watch him being brought down.

He is now fledgling, and if he loses Guo Yan, it is not just as simple as losing an arm.

"My son failed, but he met Huang Zhong, and then he met Liu Fan, and he lost more with less, and he did the same for anyone!"

Ma Teng's face changed and retorted.

"Haha...... although Longguan is not Xiongguan, but it belongs to Jiansai, I have never heard of Longguan being breached in one day."

Li Wei scoffed.

"What Li Shuai said is reasonable, now that the enemy is present, there is no need to care about the gains and losses of one person."

The leader of the Qiang tribe spoke, his tone towards Li Dao and Guo Yan.

"Yes, it's better to kill Liu Fan first. We sent troops to jointly eliminate the great calamity in Liangzhou, but it was not up to you to fight. ”

One of the leaders of the Di tribe also spoke.

"Humph!"

Ma Teng snorted coldly, and suddenly felt that Li Dao was extremely annoying.

Li Dao also fought-for-tat.

"Ladies and gentlemen, now that Guo Shuai has been defeated, nothing can be said now to restore the reality that he did not capture Black Eagle Ridge. Now he has ordered tens of thousands of iron horsemen in the south to attack Liu Fan's rear at all costs. It's hard to recover when covered with water, and all of you should know this truth! ”

Song Yang opened his mouth and said in harmony.

"Once the cavalry from the south has launched a strong attack, there is no progress on our north side. That is to give Liu Fan a chance to break out. ”

Li Dao also said solemnly.

"This time, we're all in the Black Hawk Stop. Pick a warrior and launch a strong attack. Compress Liu Fan's living space little by little, and respond to the 50,000 iron horsemen in the south. ”

Han Sui had no choice but to let go of Guo Yan's matter and spoke.

"Then let's march!"

In this way, the responsibility for Guo Yan's failure is over. It was as if the multitudes had become united in their hatred again.

But just now the Qiang and Di people spoke for Li Dao and Guo Yan, which made Han Sui thoughtful.

……

At sunset in the afternoon of the same day, the main army of Xiliang had reached ten miles away from Black Eagle Ridge.

The corpses under the mountain have been collected, and the blackened rocks and dirt and the smell of blood in the air indicate that a major battle has just taken place here.

At this time, Black Eagle Ridge was no longer the thousands of cavalry led by Yu Ban, there were 8,000 soldiers under Hu Zhen and 10,000 infantry under Duan Xuan.

The test of this group of Xiliang captives has been completed, and their retreat will be blocked, so that Liu Fan can employ people.

Not far from Black Eagle Ridge, there are 20,000 infantry under Xu Huang. Before they could participate in the war, Yu Ban killed the attacking Xiliang soldiers, which was really unexpected by Liu Fan.

Yu Ban's performance made Liu Fan very satisfied. is witty and changeable, and he is worthy of being a figure on the same level as Zhang Liao.

In order to commend Yu Ban, Liu Fan specially named him a Zhonglang general.

Liu Fan also realized that Han Sui, Ma Teng, Li Dao, Guo Yan and others couldn't wait and launched a general attack on him.

Liu Fan ordered Xu Huang to lead the Black Eagle Ridge military and restrain Yu Ban, Hu Zhen, Duan Xuan, Guo Tai, Han Xian, Yang Feng, Li Le and other generals.

With 8,000 soldiers and horses under Hu Zhen, 4,000 soldiers and horses under Yu Ban, 10,000 soldiers and horses under Duan Xuan, 3,000 Taishan elite soldiers, and 20,000 infantry under his command, he resisted the thieves.

And Liu Fan led 20,000 cavalry under Xu Huang, and 20,000 infantry under Huang Zhong to attack the Hu cavalry.

"General Yu, the main force of the rebels is coming, looking at the soldiers and horses connecting the sky. Now there are only ten miles left from our army, please decide! ”

A small colonel entered the Black Eagle Ridge and said to Liu Fan.

"Wencai, your eight thousand soldiers are stationed on the Black Eagle Ridge, remember to bring enough food and water. Li Le and Han Xian listened to the order under their command. ”

Xu Huang's face did not change, and he ordered Hu Zhen, Li Le, and Han Xian.

"No!"

Hu Zhen, Li Le, and Han Xian led the order.

"The rest of the soldiers retreated three miles, and there was a pot mouth there, just enough to line up the position."

Xu Huang ordered again.

"General, the last general is puzzled, our army is stationed on the Black Eagle Ridge, and the general leads his troops to retreat for three miles. What should I do if my troops on Black Eagle Ridge become alone? ”

When Hu Zhen heard this, he hurriedly asked Xu Huang. Because Xu Huang's order was suddenly heard, he had the intention of abandoning them.

"If you guard the Black Eagle Ridge for nine days, I will kill you. If you hold out for ten days, you will be the first class on this front. His feats are enough to hang silver leaves on your chest. Let you be knighted! ”

Xu Huang didn't explain Hu Zhen's words, it was another death order.

"No! Even if the halberd in his hand is broken, the last general will use his flesh and blood to guard Black Eagle Ridge for ten days. ”

Hu Zhen clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and said.

After finishing speaking, Hu Zhen led the soldiers to climb the Black Eagle Ridge, brought enough food and water, and prepared a large number of thunder stones and rolling wood.

Xu Huang prepared a bow, a thousand crossbows, and 500,000 rockets for the Hu Zhen soldiers.

Hu Zhen, Black Eagle Ridge. It is an important part of Xu Huang's defense against the Western Liang coalition army.

Create an illusion that the enemy can break through Black Eagle Ridge, but it can't be breached.

Look for plenty of opportunities for him.

If he could, Xu Huang would definitely send more soldiers to Black Eagle Ridge. Although Black Eagle Ridge is much larger than ordinary slope ridges, it is already the limit of accommodating 8,000 soldiers. More could be counterproductive.

The soldiers were on Black Eagle Ridge and could not be deployed.

Xu Huang is not only the 10,000 soldiers who arranged Duan Xuan at the mouth of the pot three miles away from the Black Eagle Ridge, but also the 4,000 soldiers who are forbidden and the 3,000 elite soldiers of Taishan.

Inside the spout, there were 20,000 more infantry.

How to resist the Xiliang soldiers has to rely on Xu Huang's arrangement.

Liu Fan trusted Xu Huang and handed over the western front to Xu Huang. Xu Huang is cautious in his use of troops, and if he can stay in danger, he will definitely do his best.
