By the time Liu Tong and Zhao Yun returned to the camp, Liu Qiao had already led the cavalry to set off. Early in the morning of the second day, the army was mobilized, and Liu Tong's 15,000 cavalry served as the vanguard, first, to prevent Sun Quan from ambushing, acting as outposts and scouts, and secondly, to rush to the predetermined place as soon as possible to carry out activities. Liu Tong divided the 15,000 cavalry into three divisions, quickly marched towards Ruyin in the shape of an arrow, detoured to the southeast of Ruyin, and deployed between Shouchun and Ruyin.

When Liu Tong arrived in Ruyin, he sent more than a dozen teams, each with 200 horsemen, to hunt and kill Sun Quan's scouts around Ruyin, inquire about news everywhere, and survey the terrain.

After a few days, the harvest was quite rich, Liu Tong's cavalry rode horses from the grassland, the cavalry was an experienced veteran, superb riding skills, and equipped with a cavalry crossbow with great lethality, once the Sun Quan scouts around Ruyin were discovered, few escaped. Liu informed that the scouts of this era are the eyes and ears of the commander, and once he is deaf and blind, no matter how good the commander is, he will suffer on the battlefield because of poor information.

Seeing that the hunt and killing of scouts had achieved good results, Liu Tong not only acted in the southeast direction of Ruyin, but even sent a small detachment to move in other directions, including the southwest direction where Liu Qiao was located.

On this day, the department reported that a large group of people came from the southeast Shouchun direction, Liu Tong had come to hunt and kill the scouts in the excitement period of the past two days, after all, the number of scouts was limited, and there was no harvest in the past two days. It's been a long time since I've led the troops alone, and I finally heard that a large group of people was coming, and Liu Tong suddenly came to his senses.

"Lou Ban, you go to reconnoitre, find out the enemy's situation and report it." Liu Tong said to the Lou Ban beside him.

"Childe, I can't leave you, and the things that Marshal Qiu gave me are not an inch away from you." Lou Ban said very decisively.

Liu Tong waved his whip to make a gesture to hit Lou Ban, but when he saw that Lou Ban did not dodge, he took advantage of the situation to shoot into the air and stopped talking. Lou Ban hurriedly called a battalion commander beside him and conveyed Liu Tong's order to him.

Liu Tong took the troops to hide in a mountain col, and when he was lying on the ground basking in the sun, the reconnaissance personnel returned. "Master Hou, the enemy army is about 5,000 people, like an increase in Ruyin, with the large army and the grain transportation team, the banner is 'Yang', and the enemy army has passed Yingshui."

A general with the surname Yang? Yuan Shu didn't have a particularly famous general surnamed Yang. "Is there a good place for an ambush? If you can hide us, the terrain is not too complicated, and it is better to be suitable for cavalry charges. Liu Tong beckoned the battalion commander to sit down.

The battalion commander approached Liu Tong and gestured on the ground, "There is a place called Longkang in Yingshui West near Ruyin, the terrain is relatively flat, and there is a hill in the north, I don't know what it is called." We can hide in the north of the mountain, and after its passing, we can kill it from behind, and there are plains for dozens of miles to the west. ”

Liu Tong jumped up when he heard this, "Okay, let's go here, you lead the way, bypass from the north, and avoid their scouts." ”

The cavalry led by Liu Tong was the Tiger and Par Battalion, the most elite team in the north. When Liu Tong ordered the charge, 15,000 cavalry came overwhelmingly, saying that there were 10,000 people, boundless, and the loose cavalry charge team was even more spectacular and huge.

Liu Tong roughly divided the cavalry into three parts, still in the shape of an arrow, the left army attacked the rear of the enemy, the middle army attacked the middle of the enemy, and the right army attacked the enemy's vanguard. The three bands of cavalry instantly scattered the enemy and penetrated through. The left army made a detour and surrounded the northeast of the enemy, the Chinese army finished lining up in the south, and the left army, led by Liu Tong himself, compressed the enemy's vanguard back and surrounded the northwest.

In less than a quarter of an hour, more than a thousand people were killed and wounded, and the opposing generals were surprised at how this army had appeared from the sky, and the scouts had not noticed it at all. The general tried his best to restrain his troops, and seeing that the other side was no longer attacking, he took advantage of this rare opportunity to form a formation and block the vehicles transporting grain and grass on the periphery to block the cavalry's attack, and the archers hid behind the grain carts and aimed their bows at the cavalry.

Liu Tong stepped forward, Lou Ban followed, crossed Liu Tong, and shouted to the enemy formation: "Which general is on the other side, come out and answer quickly!" ”

In the middle of the night, the two of them rode out of the enemy formation, Liu Tong saw that the two of them left the grain cart about 100 steps, and they were still far away from him, so he hit the horse forward, and the stairs hurriedly stopped, "Son, go further, and you will enter the range of the bow and arrow." ”

Liu Tong said disdainfully: "A hundred steps away, can a bow and arrow still hit me?" With that, he trotted over, and Lou Ban hurriedly followed.

When Liu Tong was about twenty paces away from the enemy general, he saw two generals in their forties opposite, led by a lean and tall man, and the more he looked at it, the more familiar he became. The other party was a little nervous when he saw Liu passing, but when he saw that it was two seventeen or eighteen-year-old young people, he tightened the reins of his horse and stood firmly on the spot.

Liu Tong suddenly remembered who the other party was, "It's General Yang Feng in person?" Why don't you know me, I'm Xiaocang Dragon Liu Tong! ”

When Yang Feng heard that it was Liu Tong, he was frightened, and the generals next to him couldn't help but take two steps back, the red rabbit horse was extremely majestic, and it had a murderous aura, Yang Feng and the two quickly tightened the reins of the horse and forcibly calmed their breathing.

"Yang Ding has seen Champion Hou!"

After a slightly fatter general next to him calmed down, he bowed to Liu Tong. Liu Tong saw Yang Ding's kind tone, looked carefully, and found that this was not Yang Ding, who persuaded Wu Xi to kill Guo Yan back then.

Liu Tong nodded at Yang Dingding, and said to Yang Feng: "General Che Cai, Zhang Xiu is now known as Xuanwei Hou and Yongzhou Assassin, Jia Xu has also become an important minister of military aircraft, and the old department of Xiliang has a good home." Then Sun Jian has a grudge against your old Xiliang department, how can you join the Sun family? There are only 10,000 subordinates under the general, and they don't respect you too much! Come on, come on, let's get off the horse and catch up, you're all surrounded, I won't hurt you. ”

Liu Tong said and thrust the dragon stick into the ground, jumped off the red rabbit horse, and walked towards Yang Feng and Yang Ding. Lou Ban was still on his horse, taking off his longbow and holding it in his hand. Yang Feng and Yang Ding saw Liu Tong dismount and looked at each other, although they knew that Liu Tong's words and actions often did not follow common sense, but it was also difficult to accept the old horses in the battle formation.

Yang Feng was very embarrassed and at a loss, but he didn't dare to use force against Liu Tong. Yang Ding reacted quickly, and when he saw Liu passing, he hurriedly dismounted and greeted him.

Liu Tong stretched out his left hand and grabbed Yang Ding's right hand, shook and smiled and said, "It's rare, I saw the old man today!" ”

Yang Feng didn't want to get off the horse when he saw this, as soon as he got off the horse, Liu Tong stretched out his right hand and grabbed Yang Feng's left hand, and said with a smile: "Come on, come on, let's find a place to catch up." Liu Tong pulled the two of them along the two formations and walked north for more than twenty steps.

Liu Tong sat down and took Yang Feng and the two to sit on the grass as well. Yang Feng saw that Liu Tong did not pull the two of them towards his military formation, and was a little relieved, but seeing that he was already far away from the mount, he thought that Liu Tong would not let himself escape. That's it, so let's be flexible.

Liu Tong, like an old friend, asked about the recent situation of Yang Feng and Yang Ding, asked for warmth, and cared about it. Yang Feng was a little stunned, is this still the same Liu Tong who wants people to be a guarantee and a military order at every turn, and wants to kill people at every turn to liquidate the dark history of the old department of Xiliang?

After a period of greetings, Liu Tong saw that Yang Feng's face was becoming more and more embarrassed, so he asked, "Two generals, where are you going?" ”

Yang Feng knew that Liu Tong was knowingly asking and didn't want to talk, so Yang Ding replied diligently: "General Yang and I went to Ruyin for reinforcements on the orders of Kan Ze and Lord Yan Xiang. ”

"Oh, who's in charge of Ruyin now?" Liu Tong asked.

Yang Ding saw that Liu Tong's language was novel, and he didn't care, "The leader is Liang Gang, General Le Zhi, and Chen Cong is too guarded." ”

Liu Tong had heard of Liang Gang and Le Zhuo, and asked, "Who is Chen Cong?"

Yang Ding hadn't figured out how to answer Liu Tong yet, Yang Feng thought that Liu Tong was asking knowingly again, and said with a bad face: "Isn't Chen Cong Taishou the younger brother of Lord Chen Yu, an important minister of Yanguo." ”

What, does my dad have a minister named Chen Yu? Liu Tong smiled at Yang Feng very sincerely and said, "General Cheqi, forgive me, I have been away from Yecheng for many years, and I really don't know Chen Yu. But it doesn't matter, I just know the two General Yang, and I feel comfortable when I see the old people again! ”

Liu Tong got up as he spoke, patted his ass and prepared to leave.
