Xu Huang arrived in time to rescue Chen Yucheng and his surviving brothers.

Chun Yuqiong was killed, and while the Jizhou army was in chaos, Xu Huang and Chen Yucheng broke out of the siege and retreated to the riverside camp.

After two days of fierce fighting, Chen Yu formed a unit and almost suffered all casualties.

However, holding back the enemy is the greatest victory.

Zhang He Han Xun, integrated the two divisions of men and horses, and besieged the riverside camp of the Bingzhou Army.

Xu Huang responded calmly, and the Jizhou army repeatedly attacked, but they all returned in vain.

Zhang He stationed on his horse and looked at the camp on the bank of the Bingzhou River, his brows furrowed, and he thought hard about how to break the camp.

Suddenly, Zhang He's eyes lit up. "Xu Gongming is smart, camps near the water, and seeks his own death!"

Han Xun was puzzled: "The camp is near the water, but it is not in line with the art of war." However, the enemy has four bridges to communicate with the east, why does the general say that he is killing himself? ”

Zhang He said confidently: "I have a plan to break the enemy!" ”

whispered to Han Xun, Han Xun looked happy and took the order.

Command all the departments to guard all places, and not to attack without authorization,

The Jizhou army did not take the initiative to attack, and Xu Huang and Chen Yucheng couldn't ask for it.

After delaying the enemy for three days, the combat mission of the headquarters has been achieved.

It's just that the enemy suddenly stopped attacking, Xu Huang and Chen Yucheng felt quite strange, and they didn't know what Zhang He's intentions were.

Xu Huang was patrolling around the camp when he suddenly heard a loud shout from the northern outpost: "The enemy has set fire to the ship!" ”

To the north of the camp, upstream of Qingzhang water, on the river, there are more than ten simple wooden boats!

On the ship, there are large bundles of lit hay!

On the hay, oil has been poured on it, the flames are rising, and billowing smoke is rising!

What is the enemy going to do?

Ah! Not good!

The bridge piles are stuck at the bottom of the river, and the fireboat will be stopped by the bridge piles as it goes down the river!

The enemy wants to use the fireboat to burn down the four wooden bridges that are surrounded in the middle of the camp and communicate between the east and the west!

It happened suddenly, and the camp was unprepared. It was just as the northwesterly wind was blowing. The fireboat is light and goes down the river from the north at a very fast speed!

And the state army didn't have time to react, and several fireships had already hit the first wooden bridge pile!

The oil fire was vigorous, and the thick flames immediately engulfed the wooden bridge!

"Firefighting! Hurry up and put out the fire! ”

on a wooden bridge. The fire grew bigger and bigger. A few feet away, you can feel the scorching flames, and the firefighting soldiers can't get close at all!

Zhang He's move is ruthless enough!

Burn the wooden bridge, although not so much as to destroy the state barracks. However, the logistics and supplies of the state army are all in the Hexi battalion.

The wooden bridge was destroyed, and the east bank was camped. Will be a lonely camp!

The Jizhou army is pressing, and the strong camp will become a dead place!

"Boom ......"

The first wooden bridge has collapsed!

The burning wooden boat, the burning wreckage of the wooden bridge, continue to flow down the river and rush to the second wooden bridge!

And upstream, the Jizhou army put down more lit wooden boats!

You must retreat immediately!

Xu Huang had no choice but to abandon the camp in Hedong, taking advantage of the fact that the fire had not yet affected the other two wooden bridges. The state army quickly withdrew to the west bank......

On the east bank of the river, Zhang He stood on his horse and stared. Han Xun rode a horse. The face is beaming.

"General Junyi burned the enemy's bridge, which is really clever. The enemy army fled westward in a hurry, and there was no need to worry about the country! ”

Zhang He did not have the joy of victory, but his expression was more solemn.

After several days of fierce fighting, the tenacity of the state army surprised Zhang He. And what surprised him even more. Here in the country, there is no main force of the enemy army as Han Xun said!

The enemy army attacking the country is definitely less than 10,000 people! Even, it may be less than Chun Yuqiong's state-related defenders!

With such a small number of enemy troops, there was such a big disturbance in the country. Attract the Yecheng Reserve Army. The enemy's insistence on not retreating despite the inferiority of troops and knowing that they are invincible can only show that attacking the enemy army involved in the country is just a bait! Trick the Yecheng Reserve Army to come to the rescue!

Hit the trick!

The direction of the enemy's attack must be Hanoi!

Zhang He was not in the mood to celebrate the victory with his soldiers. Ordered Han Xun to replace Chun Yuqiong, stationed in the country, and Zhang He led his troops to support Hanoi!

Raise troops to help, fight fiercely for three days, and then lead troops to Hanoi.

After nearly ten days of delay, is it still too late?

Only God knows......

……

Hanoi, Yuan Tan suddenly led his troops to appear in Wude!

Gao Ran was in the east of Wude City, and was in a stalemate with the Bingzhou army. got Yuan Tan's army, Gao Ran not only didn't like it, but was shocked!

Gao Ran held a glimmer of hope and asked, "Master Xiansi, Yecheng reinforcements have arrived?" ”

"Yecheng reinforcements are in the future, but General Gao doesn't have to worry too much, a certain has sent scouts to investigate everywhere, and there is no sign of merging the state army in the area of Xiuwu, Huojia, and Chaoge."

"Huh?!" Gao Ran panicked. "Giving up and winning the award is a self-defeating way back!"

Yuan Tan was very unhappy when he heard Gao Ran's accusations.

Gao Ran, isn't it clear who is the main general of Hanoi?

But Gao Ran was a well-known general in Jizhou after all, and Yuan Tan held back his anger so that he didn't get angry with him. He said dissatisfiedly: "General Gao doesn't need to say much, our army will win a quick victory, and it will not be too late to return to defend and repair the military and win the award!" ”

At this point, Gao Ran had nothing to say and nothing to do, but he could only hope to quickly repel the enemy army and quickly return to defense.

However, the war was not as simple as Yuan Tan thought.

Gao Lan, Wei Changhui, and the Dandao Ji Department of the Bingzhou Army were inseparable. Yuan Tan originally thought that as soon as his main force arrived, the state army would be defeated quickly.

However, his accession not only failed to defeat the enemy, but the state army became more and more courageous!

Yuan Tan ordered Gao Ran to attack from two directions, and be sure to break through the defense line of the Bingzhou army that was blocking the east of Wude City.

Yuan Tan and Gao Ran attacked on both sides, and the defense line of the state army was loosened. Yuan Tan looked at it and finally rushed to the foot of Wude City!

However, Yuan Tan didn't have time to enter the city, and the state army Qin Qiong, Lin Chong, and Gao Gao's troops came from the east, west, and north to encircle them! Besiege Yuan Tan, Gao Lan, and Wei Changhui near Wude City!

Immediately afterward, the bad news spread!

Shanyang City, which had been holding on for dozens of days, was lost after the arrival of Yuan Tanbu!

On the south bank of the Yellow River, in the direction of Xiuwu City, and Xuda Department of the Prefecture, the river is crossing!

And the even more shocking news is that the three cities of Gongxian, Jixian, and Huojia were occupied by Guo Kanbu of the Shangdang Party in the state one after another!

Yuan Tan finally realized that he was wrong!

However, it was too late!

The retreat route has been blocked, and the state army does not need to be surrounded, and Wude has become a lonely city.

And the state of Tandao Jibu, withdraw the encirclement outside Wude City, and retreat to Huaixian and Shanyang. Xu Dabu was stationed in Xiuwu, Huojia and Ji County. And Guo Kanbu is advancing in the direction of Gedangyin!

Yuan Tan stood at the head of Wude City dejectedly, he seemed to be able to hear Xu Datan Daoji's ridicule in the distance: We don't surround you, let you run, but you run?

Whether the enemy laughs or not, Yuan Tan has no time to care.

Wude City, Danmaru Town. How can there be room for nearly 30,000 horses? The food in Wude City can last for half a month at most.

Yecheng is less than 300 miles away from Wude, but in this only, narrow passage, densely covered with several cities of Dangyin, Chaoge, Huojia, Jixian and Xiuwu.

Yecheng reinforcements need to come all the way to capture the city, even if everything goes well, it will take at least a month.

One month......

Wude City has long been out of food, and it will be self-defeating!

Yuan Tan and the others, there is only one way out left, and while the grain and grass are not broken, they will break through immediately! (To be continued.) )
