Under the well trail, on the bank of the Hutuo River, the pennant of the Mianman land boundary covers the sun. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Zhang He and Ju Yi led 50,000 Jizhou elites to be stationed here, Yuan Shao only ordered them to encircle and suppress Zhang Quan, and did not order a strong attack on Jingcheng Pass.
Jingcheng Pass is dangerous, unless you are well prepared, you can fight, not everyone is like Yuan Tan, who does not know the height of the sky, and dares to attack Jingcheng Pass, which also has 20,000 troops.
lost the set goal, so he had to wait for Yuan Shao's next instructions.
Soon, Yuan Shao's order arrived.
Ordering Zhang He's 25,000 troops to be stationed in Zhending to strictly prevent a surprise attack on the state, Ju Yi and Wei Yuanjin, who conveyed the order, led 10,000 horses and horses to the north to pursue Su Dingfang's department, and must clear all the Zhang Quan forces in Jizhou.
After receiving the order, Ju Yi and Wei Yuanjin went north without stopping, and the rapid march reached the territory of Lingshou in two days, on the bank of the Zishui River.
What kind of benefits can hundreds of thousands of people in Taihang Mountain bring to Bingzhou, there is no need for Zhang Quanming to say, Su Dingfang also understands that the lord and the public can no longer be described as trusting him by handing over such an important matter, this is handing over his life.
Su Dingfang had mixed feelings and vowed to complete this matter successfully and never live up to the trust of the lord.
The more the water goes downstream, the more open the riverbed, if you want to wipe out the people of Taihang Mountain, the closer to the upstream, the better, so get Zhang Quan's order, Su Dingfang and Niu Gao discussed, it is also a fast horse march, at this time has arrived at the place where Zishui and the Bai Scoop River meet, and after another day, the army and the remnants of the Taihang Mountain who are faltering one after another.
In the face of the swarming Shangdang army, the faces of the people of Taihang Mountain changed abruptly, and they turned around and ran, shouting in their mouths,
"The Shangdang army is coming, run!"
"The Shangdang army is coming, run!"
It's as if the Shangdang army is like a man-eating demon, like a giant beast in the wilderness, which makes them frightened.
Su Dingfang did not order to chase, as long as he went upstream along the water, Su Dingfang did not need to intercept, of course it was the best to go with the flow, only ordered that if anyone dared to climb the mountain, shoot him!
In front of them were the panicked and panicked Black Mountain thieves who fled in a big way, and behind them, Su Dingfang led 5,000 armor soldiers, lined up neatly, and followed the fleeing Black Mountain thieves unhurriedly.
The higher along the Zishui, the more dangerous and narrow the two sides, the middle is the surging Zishui, on both sides are the black mountain thieves who help the old and the young to join the emperor and escape, from the sky, a big river is like a white line through the chest, on both sides is the swarthy backbone, and between the white line and the ridge there are two darker lines.
Su Dingfang's place was to deliver them safely to the state, and he was not in a hurry to drive them away, and walked forward slowly with the team.
"Report, urgent report, Jizhou General Ju Yi and Wei Yuanjin led an army of 10,000 to follow closely and have reached the upper reaches of Weishui!" The scouts are coming.
"Wei Shui?" Su Dingfang thought quickly in his mind, turned his head sideways to look at Niu Gao with stubble on his face and said, "It's only thirty or forty miles away from us!" ”
Niu Gao clasped his arms around his chest and nodded: "It's so fast, your worries are really true!" ”
After Su Dingfang led the army to leave Zhangquan, he had a premonition that this trip would not be easy, not only to appease the panicked people, but also to face the pursuers from Jizhou. Zhang Quan burst into Jizhou and fanned Yuan Shao's handsome face. Lost face in front of the princes of the world, how could he easily let go of Zhang Quan with Yuan Shao's character, and he couldn't do anything about Zhang Quan, who returned to Jingcheng Pass, so Su Dingfang's department that went north along Zishui was a thorn in his eye!
As expected, Yuan Shao sent troops to catch up, and it was the famous Jizhou general Ju Yi, and the fierce general Wei Yuanjin assisted, and Su Dingfang said Alexander.
"We can't let them catch up, we have to fight back!" Su Dingfang nodded lightly, squinting his eyes slightly, deep and dark, as if he could devour people.
Niu Gao belongs to the kind of person with a simple mind and developed limbs, which makes him think more uncomfortable than chopping him, holding his arms and thinking without thinking: "How to fight back, there must be a good strategy?" ”
Su Dingfang's eyes rolled slightly, and then he smiled slightly, and said, "I can't talk about good policies, but it's more than enough to give Ju Yi a dismount!" ”
"So what's next?" Niu Gao asked, although Niu Gao didn't have much confidence in Su Dingfang's clever plan, it was better than a brainless person like himself.
"Don't be in a hurry now, when the food consumption of the Black Mountain thieves is almost exhausted tomorrow, we are giving out food to pacify, and then we can leave a small number of men and horses to drive away, and the large army will ambush Juyi with me!" Su Dingfang was confident, full of confidence, and said proudly.
When Zhang Yan and Dugu Xin left, they swept away all the grain stored in Taihang Mountain over the years, and when the Black Mountain thieves ran down from Taihang Mountain, there was not much food, more of a little bit secretly hidden in recent years, and a lot of running for several days in a row has been consumed, and they were even more frightened when they met the party army, and they were so frightened that they discarded the little surplus grain unsteadily, Su Dingfang observed for a long time and found that many people had not eaten for several days, and they could still run now, but because of the huge fear of the party army, they were strongly supported, Su Dingfang was confident that he would win the hearts and minds of the Montenegrin bandits.
In the battle of Panhe, although Yuan Shao was defeated, there were still people who won, that is, Ju Yi who shone in the first battle of Panhe, relying on ambushes, repeatedly defeated Gongsun Zhan's Youzhou Iron Cavalry, Ju Yi can ambush, he Su Dingfang can also, the lord gave him such a good opportunity, don't cherish it, how can you say the past.
Niu Gao also saw that many of the Black Mountain thieves had not eaten for many days, relying on their will to insist, the Juyi army was still thirty or forty miles away, and it would take a day to catch up with them, and it would be okay to wait for a day, so he nodded in agreement.
On the second day, sure enough, many people couldn't support it, even if the spear of the party army was pointed at it, he couldn't move, although his eyes were wide and angry, but his weak body told him that he couldn't be in turmoil.
What you want is this effect, Su Dingfang smiled knowingly, and ordered the pot to cook porridge!
Facing the blandly gruel, the Black Mountain thieves who had been hungry for many days, their eyes lit up, as if they had forgotten their fatigue and the bloody spear, they swarmed and crawled over, kneeling at Su Dingfang's feet.
Su Dingfang stood on a high platform, surrounded by a row of murderous guards, waiting for the fragrant rice porridge to spread throughout the valley, and said in real time: "As long as you follow me to Bingzhou with peace of mind, the things in the pot can be enjoyed by Er, and there will be more along the way in the future, otherwise the knife and axe will wait, are you willing?" ”
"Yes, I'm willing!" The Black Mountain thieves who fell to the ground did not hesitate, and the mountain roared and the tsunami, even if they had ideas, they all disappeared in the fragrant rice porridge.
Relying on a pot of rice porridge, Su Dingfang quickly collected the hearts of the Black Mountain thieves, as long as he followed him, he would have food, otherwise, he would either be shot on the spot or starve to death on the way to escape.
Nothing is absolute, those who have a little grain in their hands, take advantage of the fact that the party army is not paying attention to sneak away, most of them are shot, there will still be fish that slip through the net, Niu Gao originally intended to order to chase down to the ground and kill chickens and monkeys, but was stopped by Su Dingfang.
"It's pointless to work hard for a few people, it's all in this situation, and I still want to run, even if I send him to Bingzhou, he will still run!"
"But, isn't it too cheap for him to run away like this?" Niu Gao was a little unwilling.
"It doesn't matter, deep in the mountains and dense forests, there is no food alone, and a few people can return to Jizhou, even if he returns to Jizhou for a few years, he will find that he is still under the rule of the lord!"
"The world is the lord's after all! He can't run! (To be continued.) )
