"It took two days to finally cross these 7,000 soldiers, and also intercept all the merchant ships heading downstream, so as not to let them leak the news, Gu Cheng, you have a lot of credit."

After the boat landed, Zhao Wuxian praised the boat official Gu Cheng, who presided over the shipping of the Jianjin ship, this person was also a talent discovered by Zhao Ying from nearly a thousand diners, he was originally a low-status ferryman, and after hearing that Zhao Yingcai did not ask about his background, he took the oars to join the Zhao family. At first, he was not taken seriously, because the rowing was stable and he became Zhao Ying's exclusive boatman.

Until one day, Zhao Ying was boating on the river in Wenxian County, facing the mountains and rivers, thinking of the half of the poem recited by Zhao Wuxian, and couldn't help sighing: "The wind is blowing and the clouds are flying, where are the wise men and me swimming?" ”

When the ancient Theravada heard this, he knelt down and said, "The pearl has no feet, but it can come from thousands of miles away, and this is because people like it." The Magi did not come when they had enough, probably because you did not like the Magi. ”

Zhao Ying was very dissatisfied when he heard this: "I have thousands of customers, and the food supply is tight. They did not have enough to eat, so I went to the people that evening; I didn't have enough to eat, so the next morning I went to the people to ask for it. I've done my part, who can say I'm not a good person? ”

Gu Cheng said: "The reason why Honghu can fly high and far away is because of the six rays. The hair on its back and belly is not useful for flying, and it is not beneficial to have more than one, and it is harmless to have one less. I don't know if the thousands of guests of the lord can be used as Liuxi, or those useless belly and back hairs? ”

Zhao Ying was speechless, the diners he recruited did have a lot of talents, such as Zhou She and Yang Yin, but more of them were mixed people. It takes a lot of screening to get usable talent.

Since then, he has also been impressed by the ancient vehicles, and asked this person to come to Jianjin as a official. Immediately, this important ferry port was operated vigorously. This time, if there is no ancient ride, the reinforcements transferred from Lu State will be ferried to the north shore one by one. I'm afraid it's very good to be so confidential and orderly.

"This is the responsibility of the villain, don't dare to call it meritorious...... Gu Cheng is not arrogant or impatient, and he called Zhao Wuxian to secretly bow his head. There are sages in the wild, so that the Zhao family can get the hearts of the Jin scholars, and they can dig out the capable officials here, and it is not a pity that the food that is wasted by the incompetent diners is not a pity, after all, this is not the place where he personally rules, and he can only take this way of selecting talents in line with the national conditions of the Jin Kingdom.

Seeing that all the soldiers had landed on the shore and camped in an orderly manner, they rested. Zhao Wuxian said: "I will leave another thousand people to help you guard Jianjin, this is the node of the East and West Zhao, no matter the south bank and the north bank, there is no room for loss!" ”

"Only ......" Gu Cheng raised his head and said, "The general doesn't stay here to wait for the enemy army?" After all, the soldiers and Lu soldiers came all night, and they were already very tired, and there were six or seven thousand enemies. ”

"The enemy army also traveled a hundred miles, and I didn't expect that our army had already landed, just in time to take it by surprise. Rest for the night, eat enough, and then go out to meet the enemy. ”

"Yes. Ben was tired, but he still had the strength to meet the enemy, and we had not encountered such a battle in a long time. Tian Ben is very confident to ask Ying to be a pioneer. But Zhao Wuxian denied it, he named Yu Xi and let him rest for a while. And he scattered his horsemen out.

There is a shortage of horses in the country of Lu, and good horses have to be transported from the Jinyang area. Therefore, the cavalry under Zhao Wuxian did not expand quickly, and only expanded to 1,500 cavalry: if there were more. Not to mention that there are not enough horses, and he can't afford to raise the treasury that has just been filled.

Because the cavalry took the route of elite soldiers, after the continuous production of malleable iron in Taoqiu, Zhao Wuxian's cavalry has taken on a new look, and the appearance of this return to Jin will definitely surprise the world!

However, there were only 500 horsemen around him, and the 500 he brought earlier were in Qinshui to assist Zhao Ying, and 500 remained in Lu State in case of accidents.

……

When he slept in the camp, Zhao Wuxian couldn't sleep, so he closed his eyes and took stock of the combat power in his hands.

In addition to 500 cavalry, his trump card is a division, that is, 2,500 soldiers, there are also 500 soldiers in Wen County, and another 2,000 remain in Lu State, which is his basic plate, the foundation of everything.

In addition, there are 4,000 thousand people in the right army of the Lu State by his side, which is Zhao Wuxian's old team in Xilu, considering that the conscripted peasant soldiers must be rotated to maintain domestic production, and the need to keep people to guard against the Qi State, only one-third of them were brought.

Of course, he asked the chief of the public government to release the pigeons back to Lu State, and asked Zhang Mengtan to quickly recruit troops and prepare grain and grass, and naturally brought out more than these people. There are also 3,000 Lu Guozhong Army, 2,000 rogue militia are still on the road, although these people are not elite, but they can be used as combat power, as for the accompanying 3,000 Lu Guozuo Army, they can only act as people's husbands.

These 8,000 people are not comparable to professional soldiers and veterans of the right army, they march slowly, Zhao Wuxian simply let the thief and the sheep tongue Rong take these people to walk slowly from the avenue with great fanfare, so that Qi, Wei and Erqing all think that they have just left the Lu country.

Now that he has succeeded in luring the snake out of the hole, he naturally has to carry a stick and beat it a few times!

Zhao Wuxian is still afraid that the enemy will run away! Thornjin is a lonely enclave on the north bank of the Great River, he can be regarded as fighting in the enemy's territory, he can be annihilated in the field, once the enemy is allowed to get away with all the mustaches, he will fall into a long attack.

He knew very well that once he fell into a long-term war that lasted for many years, it would be not good for the Zhao family.

……

Sixty-five miles south of Chaoge has Muyi, and thirty-five miles southeast of Muyi has Jianjin.

At this time, the standard marching speed of the army of the feudal lords was thirty miles a day, and the raiding troops of Fan and Handan were already moving fast, but by the time they set off from Muyi with simple siege equipment, it was already early in the morning of the third day.

"The Zhao clan built a lot of ships in Wen County, and also recruited a lot of water thieves on the big rivers to cut off shipping, and the Qi State was helpless because it was inconvenient to go upstream. Then we will not care about the south shore, but only take possession of the cities on the north shore and burn the ships to the ground. ”

Fan He and Handan Wu were still discussing the siege of the city, and after approaching the city, the whole army surrounded it, and spent half a day to storm it, thinking that it should be very easy to take it and complete the task given to him by his father.

Then they were able to wait for the arrival of the Zhongxing clan's army, and then march west to Qinshui to find the Zhao clan for a decisive battle.

But when the day is noon. They arrived more than ten miles away from Jianjin, when the Fan clan and the Zhao clan were divided. Chaoge Sima Liu Xiang felt that something was wrong.

He looked at the yellow winter wheat fields in the field, frowned, and said, "It's the middle of April these days. When the wheat was ripe, it was supposed that there should be people in the nearby villages who were busy harvesting, but now there is no one......"

The diligent Fan clan will not delay the farming time, not to mention that since the popularity of flour in the Jin Kingdom, the price of wheat has doubled, and it has become the most sought-after grain in the market.

He soon didn't have time to think about it, because it was scattered around the main army, and the detachments in charge of the guard came with news one after another. It is said to be a glimpse of an unidentified lone horseman.

"Rider alone?" Liu Xiang couldn't help but tighten his scalp, and Fan He and Handan Ji also glanced at each other, with some surprise in their eyes.

This is the man's famous class, how could they not know?

The Zhao clan defeated the Qi people with cavalry, although the Jin people have always been light, but the Zhuqing gradually began to pay attention to this type of troops, just like when Wei and the Bank of China destroyed the car, the rest of the four Qings followed suit. It's a pity that the cavalry was not built in a day, and they recruited at most the people of Rongdi who were good at horseback riding. A scout team of less than 100 people has been formed, and those novel horse harnesses have not yet been introduced to the Jin Kingdom, so they are still chicken-like existences.

In short, see the cavalrymen. If you see Zhao's teacher, this is still the same consensus.

Since there is Zhao's light horse here, it means ......

No more guessing. Soon, eight or nine miles ahead. In front of the blurred back of Thornjin, there was a cloud of dust. After the smoke and dust cleared a little, a neat and orderly army appeared.

On the north bank of the river, there is not even a mound that obscures the view, let alone a forest, and more than a thousand years of development and deforestation have turned the area into bald land. Therefore, you can see the enemy from a long distance, and there is no way to set up an ambush.

Seeing an army no less numerous than their own on the opposite side, the combined forces of Fan and Handan were all shocked, from generals to pawns. Naturally, it could not be friendly troops from Jianjin, and they originally expected to besiege the lonely city with few major generals, but they crashed headlong into the iron plate and were a little dizzy.

The people on the opposite side also discovered the comer, and for a while, the war drums and horns continued, and they began to step forward, and several clouds in the sky seemed to be dispersed by the murderous aura of the nearly 10,000 people advancing.

"It seems to be the banner of the Zhao family, isn't it Zhao Wuxian?" Although Handan Ji openly declared that the Zhao father and son were harsh to Handan, and he looked like he couldn't eat his flesh and sleep on his skin, in fact, he was also afraid.

On the other side, there was a man who claimed to be invincible, and the wooden sword that hit him a long time ago seemed to be still faintly painful......

"That's him!" Compared with Handan Ji, Fan He was more impulsive, looking at the Yansun Xuanniao Banner, the scene of his brother's tragic death in the river suddenly appeared in front of him, and he couldn't help but ask the emperor to take him to rush over to the master, and cut off Zhao Wuxian's head with the long sword in his hand.

But the actual commander of this expedition, Chaoge Sima Liu Xiang, gave an order that made him thunderous.

"The enemy is still miles away, it's too late to retreat!"

Fan He was taken aback, and then scolded: "Sima Liu, what are you doing!" ”

Liu Xiang is not a person who is not afraid of death, he is actually glad that he does not have to follow the lord to Qinshui to face the tough Zhao Ying, as long as he accompanies the young master to pick up the cheap, he can get a great credit.

Unexpectedly, it still ran into hard stubble.

His scalp was numb, but the opponent defeated Zheng Guo's famous general You Su, and swept the invincible Zhao Wuxian in the East, he had to have twice or even triple the strength of the army, so he dared to plunder his edge in the field, but now, ......

He visually measured the number of people on the other side, and there was not much difference between the two sides, how could this be fought?

Therefore, Liu Xiang tried his best to persuade: "The Zhao family is cunning, I am afraid that there will be an ambush, so it is better to retreat first." ”

"Fan's boy, how can he avoid war when he encounters the enemy?"

Fan He scolded non-stop, wanting to seek the support of Handan Ji, who wanted to wear linen and filial piety outside the armor, the little head of the Handan family actually showed a look of fear.

"It's better to retreat first, retreat for the time being, and return to Muyi to fight against the enemy with his back to the city, so that he can have more chances of winning......" Handan Ji's momentum was discharged, and the Handan mourning soldiers behind him also changed from grief and anger to panic.

Handan Ji raised troops to avenge his father? It became a joke at this moment.

The army's tiger talisman was in the hands of this Liu Sima, and Fan He had no choice but to allow it. The combined forces of Fan and Handan were also considered elite, and at this time, the former army became the rear army, and there was no obstacle on the Great Plains, so it began to trot and retreat.

So a fierce raid turned into a chase and annihilation battle, and the attackers were chased in turn and were embarrassed, but fortunately, they marched on their own territory, and they were familiar with the road, so they would not collapse all at once.

However, the combined forces of Fan and Bank of China did not succeed in running back to Muyi as expected.

The difference between the leggings and the ignorance of the leggings, the harassment of cavalry and the absence of cavalry cover, the difference between marching with the belief of victory and fleeing with the intention of avoiding battle, suddenly became apparent.

They were overtaken by the enemy's advance at a distance of only ten miles from Muyi, and were blocked by two cavalry units, so they had to turn around again and line up against the enemy.

As soon as they turned around, the soldiers in Handan were horrified to find that the pace of the soldiers on the opposite side had also slowed down, and the enemy soldiers who were two miles away and could not see their faces clearly shouted: "Six steps, seven steps, it is all about Qiyan!" ”

And the enemy commander wearing the armor and the long feather shirt swept past the front of the battle with the guard of the Xuanniao Banner.

"What is this place?"

Looking at the farmland trampled by the horses' hooves nearby, the farmers who fled in horror in the distance, and the acres of mulberry forests on the horizon, Zhao Wuxian's heart suddenly moved, and he asked the scout beside him.

The young scout had a sketchy map in his hand, and after glancing at it, he looked up and replied, "My lord, this place is called Makino!" ”
