Mayi. More than 20 miles north of the city, there is a huge dock fort.

Behind Ma Yi is the Ancient Wild Goose Gate. Qin Shi Huang's general Meng Tian chased the Xiongnu in the north outside the Yanmen Pass, besieged the city and raised horses, and the name of the horse came from it.

It is a place where farming culture and nomadic culture collide. The military town in the north is extremely important, and its strategic significance is far from being comparable to that of Yinguan County.

The Dock Fort, also known as the Dock Wall, took shape during the New Mang Period, when there was a famine in the north and the world was in turmoil. In order to protect themselves, the Haoqiang family has built a dock fort camp wall.

After the establishment of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Guangwu ordered the destruction of Wubao, but it was forbidden.

Inside the Dock Fort, two men were drinking wine and talking.

One is Xia Pei, the governor of Yanmen, and the other is the head of the Wu family of Yanmen, Wuyou.

Wushi is a famous family in Yanmen, and it is also a strong family.

Haoqiang refers to a strong and powerful person who often intimidates, harsh, or cruel to those who are weaker than himself.

The Haoqiang family cannot be on the stage in the prosperous world, and is often suppressed by those in power. In troubled times, the strong cannot be a lifetime.

The Wu clan oppressed the township in Yanmen, acting for the tiger and spurning for the people.

He often bribed the high-ranking and powerful people in the capital with people's fat and people's ointment to deceive the upper authorities. colluding with officials in Yanmen, like the emperor of the soil.

"The hussar general went north to the outside of the Saiwai, what do you think of the captain?" Uyu asked Xia Pei.

"What is the power of a degraded person?" Xia Pei scoffed.

"Misfortune is born suddenly, the hussar general has always been strong, hated the family, and holds the military power, not to be taken lightly." Uyu said cautiously.

"Everyone has one day, but I have two days. I am a general, who dares to touch me? Xia Pei disagreed.

In his opinion, if there is no general, whether Liu Fan can survive is a question. He dared to be arrogant here.

When you come to Yanmen, you have to be safe and secure, and you don't have other thoughts.

"That being said, you must be on guard!" Wu You despised Xia Pei in his heart.

This is a parrot who learns from the crowd and follows the crowd. Eager for power, but simple-minded.

After the hussar general arrived at Yinguan City, he didn't even enter the city gate, so he led most of the army to the north, there must be some reason.

The former Yanmen was too incompetent, so Xia Pei was so arrogant and domineering, and there was no one in his eyes.

The hussar general is not good at stubble, and if he wants to compete with him, with Xia Pei's IQ, it is difficult to climb to the sky.

"Don't mention that, it's a disappointment. In addition to the three passes, I stationed 5,000 soldiers in Mayi, and there are more than 10,000 guests from Brother Wu, you and I support each other, forgive Liu Fan for not daring to take us. Xia Pei waved his hand, turned his face a little strange, and said to Wu You: "What I love, Brother Wu is ready?"

"Du Wei is a person who cherishes flowers, how can I not know? It's all ready for the lieutenant. Wu You said vaguely, and then shouted outside the door: "Someone, take Lord Du Wei to the building."

After Xia Pei swaggered out, Wu You couldn't help cursing: "This lustful villain who sees strange thoughts, you are like a dog in a troubled world, and you can't set off any storms at all."

A smile hides a knife and acts recklessly.

One is pretentious and arrogant.

The two smell like each other and are embarrassed.

……

Qiangyin County.

In the afternoon of the same day, a total of 17,000 soldiers and horses came to Qiangyin.

In this area, there are thousands of mountains and ravines, and the terrain is very dangerous.

A wide and long canyon, like a python, circling in the mountains, this is the only way to reach Yanmen.

"Good place." Liu Fan stood on a high place, staring at the map of mountains and rivers.

"According to the budget, the Xianbei cavalry should arrive tomorrow. Our soldiers are tired from running around, and today they will camp again for one night, and tomorrow they will fight their tired divisions with fine divisions. Coupled with an ambush, it will be able to defeat it. Jia Xu said affirmatively.

Make good use of soldiers, avoid their sharpness, and hit their laziness.

At the right time, choose the right method, the right time, place and people are occupied, and victory is in sight.

"Guan Yu, Huang Zhong, and you, together with Mr. Wenhe, led three thousand cavalry to bypass Woyang. Raid the Tuoba Xianbei Division. "Liu Fan sent his two generals.

Assault cavalry, said to be brave, can clash with the enemy.

Guan Yu and Huang Zhong both have the courage of ten thousand people, charging into battle, invincible.

With Jia Xu by his side as a military advisor, he will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.

"The lord only has a few hundred horses left, is there something insufficient?" Jia Xu said.

"All I left behind were heavy cavalry, and three thousand crossbowmen. Supplemented by 10,000 infantry, the soldiers are full. Xianbei men, women, and children can get on the horse and control the strings, and I am worried that the three thousand cavalry will not be able to win. "Liu Fan has confidence in his side, the key is how much loot Jia Xu, Guan Yu, and Huang Zhong can bring for themselves.

"Tuoba obstructs his tribe to control 20,000 warriors, and I look at his camp tents, this imaginary number is also. Its tribal soldiers were up to fifteen thousand. The battlefields on both sides are calculated by heart and without intention, and these forces are not enough no matter how you look at them. ”

When Jia Xu saw Tuoba Xianbei's vertical and horizontal tents, he could calculate the approximate number of Tuoba Xianbei tribes.

"Mr. Wenhe has no last resort, Yun Chang, Hansheng, you must listen to Mr. Wenhe." Liu Fan ordered Guan Yu and Huang Zhong.

"No!" Guan Yu and Huang Zhong received the order.

At Jia Xu's suggestion, Guan Yu and Huang Zhong immediately led 3,000 cavalry to Woyang County, ready to wait for an opportunity.

Among the three thousand cavalry, there were 1,000 of them, dressed in delicate bright light armor.

As he ran, the armor resounded. The flag is flying in the wind, and the cavalry is in full swing.

The dignified array, the banner of righteousness.

The uniformed military appearance, the full morale, the spear direction, the iron cavalry stepping on, no one can stop it.

Liu Fan's side also began to arrange ambushes, and crossbowmen hid on both sides of the valley.

The infantry hid in the hollows of the mountains, waiting to appear to defeat the enemy when attacking.

Five hundred heavily armored cavalry were stationed five miles away, waiting for an ambush together, and a short charge to crush the enemy in one fell swoop.

Although the scale of the Qiangyin ambush is far less than that of Ma Yi's strategy, it is very similar to Ma Yi's strategy.

Regardless of this victory or defeat, Liu Fan will expose his face with the northern alien race.

Although Xianbei is internally unstable, when faced with threats, it is very likely that they will share the same hatred.

Liu Fan will not give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, risks and benefits coexist, Liu Fan values the cattle, sheep and horses of the Xianbei tribe, and wants to fight to raise war.

After the arrangement was completed, Liu Fan asked the soldiers to set up camp nearby.

The next day, after the end of the hour, the whole army was ordered to prepare.

After burying the pot and cooking, put away the tent, press the flag, and hide the traces. The whole army crawled everywhere, without showing their figures.

In the early morning of this day, the fog was thick, like a wide and large gauze curtain, covering the mountain.

The morning sun rises, and the clouds are steaming. Thousands of rocks are showing, thousands of ravines are contending, and the grass and trees are covered with it. In February, everything is beautiful.

Under this superficial beauty, in the hollows of the mountains and above the valleys, a soldier opened a fierce gaze and clutched a spear in his hand.

They are waiting for the drums of war to be raised, for the banners of the ministries to be raised again.

The drums do not advance, the gold does not stop, the flag cannot be raised, and the flag is not subdued.

Chop!
