The battle on the battlefield is not a matter of spending money before and under the moon, and people will die in the blink of an eye, Pang Wanchun's arrow was too fast, and Zhang Qing was scared into a cold sweat.

Pang Wanchun hugged his fists and said: "Zhang Dujian Feishi's martial arts are amazing, but our army is prepared, the helmets are all with masks, and my archery skills are reasonable, so please Zhang Dujian think twice, don't come to the fight between Jeju and Gao Yu, otherwise it can only be stealing chickens and rice." ”

"This." Zhang Dujian was a little embarrassed, after all, as a soldier, it took a lot of courage to resist the orders of the imperial court.

Pang Wanchun said: "If you send troops, Dongchang will lose, as for the reason for not sending troops, you can think for yourself." Zhang Dujian, please go back, let's go. ”

Zhang Qing immediately clenched his fists: "Okay, don't leave it at that." ”

After that, Zhang Qing began to return with the team, and Ding Desun said: "They are guest soldiers, will they harm the people if we leave." ”

Zhang Qing shook his head and said with a smile: "No, Chao Gai's ambition is not small, the military law of the Jeju army is very strict, it is known that he will not rob if he dies of hunger, and he will not demolish the house if he freezes to death, this place is not far from Jeju, their logistics and supply are smooth, and there is no reason to harass the people, so let's go with confidence." ”

Ding Desun thought about it, Jeju is rich, the people are rich, and the treatment of being a soldier is good, not bad money, so naturally he will not do things that disturb the people.

Pang Wanchun and Niu Gao saw that Zhang Qing was gone, and they also began to pack up the team to leave, Niu Gao said: "Our task is just done?" What if Zhang Qing is disobedient and leads his troops to fight Jeju in a few days. ”

Pang Wanchun said: "It's easier to deal with smart people, Zhang Qing is a smart person, he himself is very good at flying locusts with one hand, and many famous generals are not his opponents, so he is a little confident." Let's tell him this time that our generals are equipped with helmets with masks and are not afraid of his stones. Second, he can dodge his stones, and he can also defeat him with a bow and arrow, so he won't help Gao Yu this time. ”

Niu Gao scratched his head: "Why can you avoid his stone." ”

Pang Wanchun said: "Ordinary people are human beings, whether they have a secret weapon to shoot, they can see that they are all hands." I saw the expression and the shoulder, and as soon as his shoulder moved, I knew that the situation was wrong, and dodged in advance, so naturally he couldn't hit it. My bow is faster and stronger, so I can defeat him. ”

Niu Gao said: "My bow and arrow are also very good, and I can be regarded as a master in the army, but why is there a gap between me and you." ”

"As a general, you have to rely on your brains to fight, and in the future, there will be fewer and fewer such tactics as generals, so you can learn more about the art of war." Pang Wanchun said.

Niu Gao, a stupid boy, pretended to be stupid all the way, and learned a lot of things from Pang Wanchun, and when he came back, Gongsun Sheng high-speed them, Chao Gai had already led the troops to Yingtianfu to meet the enemy, so that Pang Wanchun Niu Gao came back and also led the troops over.

It was not far to go to Ying Tianfu, but it was a hundred miles away, and when Pang Wanchun and Niu Gao arrived with people, the army of more than 17,000 led by Chao Gai had just arrived for more than a day.

Pang Wanchun and Niu Gao went to Chao Gai to hand over the order, and reported the battle process in detail, Chao Gai said: "Wanchun has done a good job, which is worthy of praise." ”

Niu Gao said: "Slow, slow, don't I deserve praise for what I did?" ”

Chao Gai said: "You are doing well, but your brain is not good enough, and you will have to think more about things in the future." ”

Pang Wanchun asked: "What is our task now?" ”

"Niu Gao, lead your cavalry as a ranger, and patrol thirty miles south along here, once a day. Pang Wanchun's troops were waiting for dispatch in the camp. Gao Yu led an army of 50,000 miles away, and it would be good to be able to reach it in three or five days at the speed of their march, and our middle route army had nothing to do for the time being. Chao Gai said.

The Middle Route Army had nothing to do, but the Southern Route Army led by Li Kui and the encirclement and suppression of the imperial court had already begun to collide.

Let's say that Li Kui and Bao Xu led the headquarters of 1,000 infantry to gallop to the aid of Mangdang Mountain in the starry night, and the infantry did not necessarily rely on walking, because Jeju was connected by canals and waterways to Mangdang Mountain, and 1,000 people took a merchant ship all the way south, but they arrived at Mangdang Mountain in more than a day.

Li Kui took out the order of the military department and said to Fan Rui: "This is a military order, you can take a look." ”

Fan Rui took a look at the military order, it turned out that the Southern Route Army sent by the imperial court came, the main general was still the general of the imperial court, called Qiu Yue, leading the local troops mainly to the Xuzhou Army and the Huaiyang Army, as many as 25,000 people, because the military department was worried that Mangdangshan's own troops were insufficient, so it sent Li Kui to lead the troops to come, let Li Kui be the main general, Fan Rui was the military division, Bao Xu, Li Gon, Xiang Chong was the deputy general.

Li Kui said: "Battalion Commander Fan, you can be convinced of this arrangement. ”

Fan Rui said with a smile: "Battalion Commander Li is too worried, how can Fan Rui, as a soldier, not be convinced by the orders of the military department." ”

Li Kui said: "That's okay, I Tieniu is a rough man and has no culture, but when I came, my brother said that if the southern route army of the imperial court goes north, my mission will be considered a failure." If the mission fails, I won't have the face to go back to see Brother Chao Gai, so I must not fail this time. ”

Fan Rui said: "Let's go, let's go to the Chinese army to discuss things." ”

Immediately, Li Kui was promoted to the account and ordered the troops, and the generals above the company commander arrived, and it was full of forty or fifty people. The soldiers were lined up on both sides, Li Kui sat in the center, and Fan Rui stood on the military division seat next to him. Li Kui asked Fan Rui to read out the military order in public, and all the generals knew it in their hearts and understood the enemy's situation.

The next day, the whole military academy was assembled, and 4,000 soldiers stood neatly on the school field, with Li Kui, Fan Rui, Bao Xu, Xiang Chong, and Li Gon standing on the platform in the middle.

Li Kui roared: "Gao Yu traitor, send a sect leader of the forbidden army, Qiu Yue, to lead 25,000 soldiers from the south, and our Mangdang Mountain is their first target." You say, "What should we do when the enemy comes?" ”

"Kill, kill, kill." The soldiers shouted loudly.

"That's right, this is called a man, don't say that we have 4,000 people, even if it is only Lao Tzu alone, he dares to block the way of his 25,000 army." Li Kui said, "What does it depend on to fight, it depends on courage, it depends on guts, what kind of soldier does it take to shrink your eggs before you fight, then it is better to go home as soon as possible and hold your child." So I decided to take the initiative and use Mangdang Mountain as a base, not a defensive cottage. ”

This strategy was proposed by Li Kui last night, and Fan Rui was startled at the time, 4,000 soldiers against 25,000 people, the difference in strength is very large, so the situation should generally stick to the cottage as the best policy, I didn't expect Li Kui to attack, Li Kui said, I Li Kui is not a defensive material, offensive is my style.

Fan Rui said, okay, if you want to play, let's sneak attack the camp of the South Route Army tomorrow night and give him a good start.

This is what Li Kui said today that he was going to attack, and immediately Li Kui ordered 3,000 infantry, leaving Xiang Chong to lead 1,000 people to defend the cottage.
