Hanyang County, southeast of Zhangdao County, Luomen Junei, Fuquan led 10,000 elite horsemen, marched for a day and night, and finally arrived here.

Along the way, even though Fuquan was very secretive about the whereabouts of the army, he still encountered some Han and Qiang people, in order to ensure that the whereabouts of the army were not revealed, Fuquan did not ask about their origins, no matter what their purpose was, they were all detained, marched with the army, and only waited for the end of the war, and then gave them the passage fee to return to their hometowns.

Luomenju, whose name has been the earliest "Ju" in Chinese history since the rise of China, also appeared in the pre-Qin period at the latest, and in later generations, it will also evolve into the historic Luomen Town.

After all, Tianshui County, the predecessor of Hanyang County, was the only way for Han merchants to go through since the opening of the Silk Road in the former Han Dynasty, and Luomenju became a necessary place for many merchants at that time.

However, with the blockade of the Western Regions and the chaos in Liangzhou, today's Luomen Gathering can only see the prosperous scene of the past, but there are not too many businessmen coming, and the flow of people is also pitiful, just waiting for one day in the future, when the Han family stretches out its tentacles to the Western Regions again, it will be revived again.

"Gather at the door, gather at the door" Fu Quan looked at the small gathering in front ......of him, muttered in his mouth, and then said to a young general who followed behind him: "Ling Ming, isn't this place here to conquer Qiang and break the hustle and bustle?" ”

The young man is Pang De, and he is friendly with Fuquan's deputy general, Zhang Meng, so although his position is not high, he can also follow Fuquan. Of course, if it were an ordinary person, Fu Quan would definitely scold the other party for not knowing the etiquette, but Pang De's words, in the face of such a young talent, Fu Quan naturally tolerated it, and he was originally from Zhendao County, so it was useful to come to the door this time and let him stay by his side, just like now.

"Pingxi is well-read and strong, and he is very convinced!" Pang De saluted and said: "In the past, I came to conquer Qiang by the order of Emperor Guangwu, the army fought against Kui Huan, and when the military was established for ten years, he attacked and pulled out the door, and the Kui Huan branch party offered Kui Huan's son Kui Chun to surrender, and since then Longyou has been decided!" And those who fall behind the door are also gathered here. ”

Fu Quan laughed loudly: "Ling Mingfang is erudite and strong? Remember it so clearly! ”

"De is a Taoist person, here is only a few dozen miles away from my hometown, and I often play when I am young, and I don't know? Ranpingxi is a native of Kanto, and Xuzhou is thousands of miles away from Liangzhou, but he knows about it, and he can't be virtuous! ”

"Hahaha!" Fu Quan laughed, Pound's little sycophant obviously made him very happy, and in a good mood, he suddenly thought of something again, and then looked at the faintly visible river outside the Luomen Gathering: "Once you have arrived, look back at Wei, every soldier, the head must be white, and the rebels will be defeated when they come here!" ”

The few people who knew about the next military action, after reacting, they all took a deep look at Fuquan, and then praised "Pingxi is wise, and the Han army will win!" ”。

As for other people who don't understand, they are in a daze, and they shout, after all, praising Shangguan is right at all times, unless you don't want to mix under Fu Quan.

There are only a few people, although they don't know the specific actions, but when they think of what Fu Quan said about the coming to the world, and the fact that he quoted a famous sentence of Emperor Guangwu, they were excited in their hearts, because they knew that there would be another big battle to fight.

To conquer Qiang, it refers to the founding name of this dynasty in the future, the king of the uncle, who was named the Marquis of Qiang, so it is called to conquer Qiang. As for Kui Huan, he was the great warlord of Longyou when the dynasty was founded, and he seized Longyou and claimed to be the general of Xizhou, and his strength was extraordinary.

Now, Fu Quan's mention of the destruction of the Lai Lai Men and the comparison of the defeat of the rebels here clearly illustrates something that is going to happen. Moreover, in Fuquan's words, the famous sentence of Emperor Xiaguangwu was also adapted, which really couldn't help but make people excited.

When it comes to breaking the hustle and bustle, we have to mention the allusion of Emperor Guangwu "Delong Wangshu", when Emperor Guangwu extinguished the hustle and bustle, he wrote to the general Cen Peng: "People are not satisfied, both Pinglong, looking back at Shu, every soldier, the head and temples are white." ”

Cen Peng is the later Marquis of Wuyin, the word Junran, one of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai, Liu Xiu wrote this letter, naturally hoping that he would go to pacify Gongsun Shu, who was still in Shu at that time.

What this means is that people are always dissatisfied, Liu Xiu got the land of Long, and he also wanted to get the land of Shu, and every time he sent troops, his hair would turn white because he wanted to be strategic. Now Fu Quan said that he was also comparing, he didn't hurt how many gray hairs he had for this war, and those who understood this meaning knew that Fu Quan had definitely taken a lot of heart to send troops this time, and with Fu Quan's previous records, this battle had a great chance of winning, which naturally made them very happy, after all, a big victory means military merit and title, and the career has gone to the next level, isn't it?

Outside the west of Luomenju, there is a Weishui tributary passing through this gathering, Fuquan after enjoying the scenery of the earliest gathering of Luomenju, then led the army straight to the upstream of the Weishui tributary, which is also the place that has been thinking about the march on the road.

At this moment, the upper reaches of this tributary have long been blocked by the Han army, and those who approach are all wanted by the Han army, which can be described as heavily guarded. The reason why this is so is because the upstream of this tributary has long been blocked by the Han soldiers and their recruited people, with sandbags filled with sand.

Just like building an embankment to store water, the Han army has used artificially made embankments, which are filled with a lot of water here, just waiting for visitors to taste the taste of this cold water in the northwest.

"Wei Dong, if you win this time, you will be indispensable." Looking at the pile of sandbags in front of him, Fu Quan laughed and praised Wang Qiao, this is the reason why he asked Wang Qiao to come to Zhendao County with his secret order in advance, that is, let him come here to engage in basic water conservancy construction, of course, this water conservancy project is just to take advantage of the rebels.

"Everything within the division, everything is more than a good calculation!" Wang Qiao replied modestly, but the excitement on his face could not be concealed.

After all, since Wang Qiao sacrificed his daughter and joined Fuquan's command, although he also has a lot of credits, in the Fuquan army, there are too many strategists and generals who are more powerful than him in terms of civil and military affairs, so he can only make some small credits. Now, Fu Quan has given him such a troublesome but great errand, can he not be excited?

"Will the water level rise again in a few days?" Fu Quan asked with a smile, he naturally knew why Wang Qiao's excitement, but he didn't break it, but changed the topic, after all, Wang Qiao was like this, wasn't he deliberately taking care of it like this?

Wang Qiao saluted and said: "Back to Pingxi, the lower officials have asked the local officials and people, at this time in early spring, if there is no accident, when there are several light rains, the water level should increase. ”

Hearing this, Fu Quan immediately said: "In this case, quickly prepare sandbags, the rebels have not yet arrived here, and not let a drop of river water flow downstream!" ”

"No! The lower officials are ready, just waiting for the rebels to arrive! ”

"Good!"

As Wang Qiao answered, Fu Quan relieved his heart, the upstream water level of the Weishui tributary was the key to his victory in this battle, and it must not be missed, even more important than him concealing the whereabouts of the cavalry and deliberately ambushing here.

According to Jia Xu's strategy, the Han army in Liangzhou is now at a disadvantage in terms of strength, after all, although there are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the upper reaches of Liangzhou, the Han army needs to divide its troops to hold the land, and the soldiers and horses that can be mobilized for Fuquan are of course limited. The rebels are different, now they claim to have 100,000 people, but everyone is cavalry, whether it is mobility or numbers, the Han army does not have an advantage, so Jia Xu will offer a plan, on the Weishui tributary west of Luomenju, the method of water attack to defeat the rebels.

As for the scene that Fu Quan had previously staged in Pingxiang County, it was naturally to make the rebels think that he had led the main force and stubbornly defended Pingxiang County, which was closest to the warrior county where the rebels were located, so that the rebels would understand that Pingxiang County was a hard bone, so that they would retreat timidly and give up attacking Pingxiang County, and switch to another goal.

The rebels are all cavalry, and the purpose of this time is also to rob, and it is natural to change the route and march, and from the perspective of the rebels' intention to quickly attack Sanfu and achieve their strategic goals, there is a high probability that they will attack the county town in the west.

The reason why this is so is because if the rebels do not attack Xiangxian County, they can only take a detour, and the path they take is nothing more than two roads, to the west and to the east.

Compared with marching to the east, it is necessary to pass through several counties such as Ayang, Chengji, Luoyang, and Xianqin, and it is undoubtedly most appropriate to go directly west in the direction of the Qiangdao, after all, if there are many counties, it also means that the Han army will have more defensive forces. The adjacent counties to the east are the essence of Hanyang County, and any local governor will do his best to defend it, after all, if this place is captured and destroyed by the rebels, the entire Hanyang County will definitely be abolished.

Moreover, the westward march into the county is another advantage for the rebels, even if they cannot break through the county seat, they can also give up completely, because the southeast direction of the county seat is the county seat of Ji County. Here, it is not only the county governance of Hanyang County, but also the governance of the Liangzhou Thorn History Department, once this place is captured, Hanyang County will be shaken, Liangzhou will be shaken, and it will definitely not be difficult to drive straight down and attack Sanfu.

The previous rebel invasion was also this routine, in the face of the difficult county, all of them retreated after the siege, and turned to attack other counties. It's just that after Jincheng County was broken by the rebels, Han Sui, Bian Zhang and other Han celebrities joined the rebels, their tactics had a new change, that is, after the detour, they directly besieged Hanyang County and Ji County, and then surrounded the point to send reinforcements to expand the results.

If the soldiers of other counties in Liangzhou came to the rescue, the Han army was smaller, so they used the advantage of cavalry to fight in the field with the Han army, and if they encountered more Han troops, they led their troops to flee away, so that the Han army, which had little cavalry, could only be discouraged, worried that after the pursuit, it was ambushed by the rebels.

This is also the reason why Zuo Chang was besieged by the rebels in Ji County when he was the assassin of Liangzhou before, if it were not for Gai Xun, who was on the front line, threatened Hanyang County to engage in Xin Zeng and Kong Chang to send troops, I am afraid that Zuo Chang would die under the siege of Ji County by the rebels, and he would not be able to wait for Fuquan to behead his head.

Jia Xu's plan is like this, since the rebels have already bypassed behind the Han army and attacked and besieged Ji County, then if there is another opportunity, they will definitely not let it go, especially when they know that the Han army's commander Fu Quan has hoarded 15,000 elite horses under his command in Pingxiang County, which is at the forefront of the war, it will make the rebels have a desperate impulse to take risks.

After all, even if the rebels did not attack the county seat of Zhangdao, they only needed to cross the Weishui tributary next to the county seat of Zhangdao and pass through Luomenju, and then they could directly attack the county seat of Jixian County. At that time, even if Fuquan gets the news, it will be too late, and the main force of the Han army is in the hands of Fuquan, in this case, the rebels' advantage in time and strength is extremely likely to take Ji County.

However, if the rebels want to take Ji County, they must cross this Weishui tributary, and there are several shallow rivers in this tributary that can be used by cavalry to cross the river directly, which is also the reason why the previous rebels were able to quickly besiege the county seat of Ji County.

Now, Fuquan has built an artificial embankment upstream of this Weishui tributary, and when the water level has risen to a certain level, it only needs to wait for the rebels to cross the river before breaking the embankment and releasing water. At that time, tens of thousands of rebel cavalry across the river, will be blocked by the rising river, and then the Han army has long been ambushed by the cavalry, from the rebels before and after, at that time, just by the "from the sky" monstrous flood washed away by the rebels, how will it be the opponent of the rebels, the Han army will inevitably win, of course, as for how many enemy troops can be killed, that is only God knows.

Of course, all this is also a matter of chance, and if the rebels don't fall for Fuquan, then naturally there is no problem. Therefore, Fuquan will conservatively leave Wu Yi and take 5,000 barbarian soldiers to defend Pingxiang County, the front line of the war. In addition, the counties of Hanyang County and Liangzhou County were also notified to prepare troops and horses in case the rebels continued to attack after the beginning of spring.

Therefore, in addition to the 10,000 cavalry he brought from the world, and the soldiers and horses from the two counties of Qidao and Ji County, as for the rest, there are more than 3,000 cavalry drawn from the counties near Hanyang County and Longxi County.

These cavalry were the original cavalry in Longxi County and Hanyang County, as well as the rangers and evil boys with horses recruited locally, and the reason why they were transferred from each county in Hanyang County was actually very simple.

That is, now there are many rebel cavalry, and if the Han army does not get cavalry supplies from other places, it can only stick to the cities. As for going out of the city and fighting in the field with the other party, when the rebels saw the Han army's formation, they basically did not attack as desperately as the Qiang people before, and the Han army's infantry formation was useless, but they had to worry about whether they would be attacked by the rebel cavalry using their speed advantage during the march; Second, if the number of Han troops is obviously inferior to the rebels' soldiers and horses and the rebels fighting in the field, it is obviously a military merit to the rebels, and the rebels can completely crush those Han cavalry with their numbers.

Therefore, since those scattered Han cavalry were wasted in various counties, Fuquan naturally recruited them to set up an ambush for himself this time to increase the chance of victory. Of course, in order to hide the news, Fuquan was only secretly transferred in Hanyang County and Longxi County, which were close to Luomenju, and it was to transfer soldiers and horses, and it was also in the name of General Pingxi that he was transferred to Ji County.

The whole process of troop transfer did not explain that there was this ambush at all, and those soldiers who were transferred from the army also knew their fate when they arrived at Luomen to gather here, so it can be said that this is a completely secret operation, whether it can be achieved depends on whether the rebels will enter the urn.

However, the only pity is that although Fuquan quickly gave the order to transfer troops to Longxi County, because of the lack of time, the cavalry transferred was only more than 1,000 horses from Longxi County close to Luomenju, otherwise, there might be thousands more horses.

On his cheeks, a trace of spring rain slowly dripped down, and Fu Quan looked up at the heavens that seemed to be about to fall heavy rain, and laughed: "God help me!" ”

Indeed, when it rains, the artificial embankment with sandbags will naturally be filled with more water, and if the rebels don't come, God will undoubtedly waste his own rain, right?
