After the main army of the Wild Lion Legion encircled and suppressed Xiahou Yuan, after some rest, under the personal leadership of Huang Zhong and Zu Mao, they were moving south day and night, and the goal was very clear, the main force of the Wei army in the direction of Zhuo County and Gu'an.

"The whole army obeyed the order, camped on the spot, buried the pot and cooked, and waited until dawn before hurrying!"

"No!"

After several days of intensive marching, the Wu army was extremely tired, and at sunset, southwest of Liangxiang, on a plain hillside, the army stopped and stationed, and under the wisps of cooking smoke, the sky was dark.

In one of the tents of the Chinese army, the oil lamps shone brightly, and the commanders of the two major army corps stood.

"Commander Zu, we are still a few days away from Gu'an?" Huang Zhong took off the heavy armor on his body, sat down, spread out a marching map, looked at it, and after half a ring, he raised his head, looked at Zu Mao, and asked.

"It should be two days, the soldiers have been fighting repeatedly, and they are a little tired, so they can't call for a hurry, otherwise the combat effectiveness will decline!" Zu Mao Road.

"Two days?" Huang Zhong was silent for a while.

Zu Mao stretched out his hands and rubbed the bridge of his nose vigorously to dispel the tired breath of the gathering: "At present, Pang Tong is indeed in a hurry, the Xianbei army is not strong at all, the east and the middle road have been broken, fortunately, the main force is still pressed in Gu'an, but the combat effectiveness of the main force of the Wei army is not weak, we must maintain combat effectiveness when we are in a hurry!" ”

"Hmph, these damn barbarians, I can't believe it in the first place!"

When Huang Zhong heard this, his face sank, and he said coldly, but he also understood the heart of Xianbei people, and he was not too surprised, but he was somewhat suspicious of the current situation between the two armies: "Commander Zu, there is always something wrong with a certain family, the Wei army in the old security." Is it their main force? ”

"Probably right!"

When Zu Mao heard this, he thought about it, looked at Huang Zhong with puzzled eyes, and said: "Now that the news of the battle on the east and middle roads has returned, although our encirclement has been forcibly broken out by the Wei army, in fact, there are not many soldiers and horses who have broken through the encirclement. Even if it adds up, it is less than 20,000 soldiers and horses, and after they go south from Liangxiang, there are at least 100,000 elites, so this remaining main force must be in the west, what do you doubt? ”

"Are you really on the road to the old peace?"

Huang Zhong narrowed his eyes, looked at the marching map with a dead gaze, and said in a deep voice: "But why don't I look like it!" ”

"What does Commander Huang mean?"

When Zu Mao heard this, he frowned suddenly. After calming down and thinking about it, he said, "Could it be that the main force of the Wei army is no longer here?" ”

"Commander Zu, the main force of about eighty or ninety thousand, and there are a lot of cavalry, when they move, they must be beating drums and bombarding the sky, and it is not easy to hide, but don't you think there is less movement now!"

Huang Zhong said: "If they were just trying to disturb our vision before. Then it is normal for them to march in hiding, but now the east and middle roads are rising. It's obviously a suspicious soldier, it must have been exposed, now that the clues have been revealed, is it interesting to hide and hide again, if the main general is replaced by me, I should do whatever it takes. When our forces are moving south, force them out! ”

"When you say that, I feel that way!"

Zu Mao listened carefully to Huang Zhong's analysis, nodded silently, and narrowed his eyes. There was a glint in his eyes: "Could it be that Zhang Liao still has a back hand!" ”

"It's hard to say!"

Huang Zhong gritted his teeth, his eyes burst with a touch of essence, he didn't dare to underestimate Zhang Liao: "I feel that they should still be here, since there is no main force on the east and middle roads, they can only be in the west, but why did they suppress their marching movements, and did not hesitate to delay the march, nor did they reveal their whereabouts, I am a little unknown, it should be something else, no matter what, we have to deal with it carefully, we all think that this Wei army is going to break through, but if Zhang Liao leads a part of the elite soldiers and horses at this time, he suddenly turns around and bites back." , our soldiers and horses will not be in a hurry, Zhang Liao is very good to deal with! ”

Now the only thing Huang Zhong can think of is that Zhang Liao will take the initiative to face the battle, and when he breaks through, he will bite back, and then his main force will suffer.

"You're right, I'll arrange it immediately, and while marching, strengthen the defense to avoid their surprise attack!" Zu Mao's expression was solemn, and he nodded hurriedly, and then summoned a few division commanders to quickly arrange defensive tasks.

"Report!" At this time, there was a loud shout outside.

"Come in!"

When Zu Mao heard this, his brows furrowed, and he snorted in a low voice.

"The Suzaku Battalion scout is in Yue, and there is an urgent military intelligence report to the commander!" Outside the tent, a young man strode in and bowed his head. The report said.

"Say!"

Huang Zhong walked out, looked at this scout, and said.

This is the scout of his Blood Wolf Legion, and it belongs to him, so he spoke.

"Report to the commander, the Vermilion Bird Battalion is in the land of the Yan Great Wall in the northwest of Zhuo County, and a large number of Wei army scouts have been found, the scale is not small, and it is suspected that they are the main force of the Wei army!" The scout said.

"What?"

When the two commanders heard this, they stood up suddenly, looking surprised.

"Yan Great Wall?" Zu Mao hurriedly flipped through the marching map: "At present, there is only a section of the Yan Great Wall here, which has already entered the position of Daijun, how can the main force of the Wei army be here?" ”

"Is the news true?"

Huang Zhong strode out, took a deep breath, looked serious, and asked in a deep voice.

"Commander, at present, our scouts are only fighting with the Wei army scouts, and they have stopped them, and they have not been able to find their main force with their own eyes, but the scout company of our Vermilion Bird Battalion is the elite of the legion, and the scouts who can block us instead of the Wei army must be the main force scouts, so General Suzaku judges that the main force of the Wei army is here!"

Scout Reports.

"Lu Lan is good at fighting, and under the experience of the past few years, she can already take charge on her own, her character is still very careful, since she has this judgment on the spot, eight or nine are not far from ten!"

Huang Zhong turned his head, looked at the marching map on the table, looked at it again and again, looked at it carefully in the third, his face became more and more difficult to look at, and only after half a sound did he say: "Commander Zu, it seems that we have all been fooled, their main force is obviously not going south, but going west, borrowing Daodai County, entering Bingzhou!" ”

"No, it won't!"

Zu Mao swallowed a mouthful of saliva, a little incredulous: "Why is Zhang Liao so troublesome, and he is willing to seek the near and far. It's a long way to go west and merge with the state, and then we will catch up, which is much more difficult than going south! ”

"Commander Zu, don't forget, there is a Ma Chao in the state!" Huang Zhong gritted his teeth: "If Ma Chao sends troops to respond." Break into Daijun, then if they want to get out, it's much simpler! ”

"Report!" At this time, a herald rushed in, and this was also the scout of the Blood Wolf Legion.

"What's the matter?" Huang Zhong drank.

"Report to the commander, this morning, a large number of Wei cavalry appeared in Pingshu City, Daijun, and under the battle, a battalion of the Eighteenth Army was completely annihilated, and the Wei army had already driven straight in. A regiment left behind in Dai County asked for help! ”

"It's really coming!" Huang Zhong's face was pale, if he had just guessed before, this time it had been confirmed.

"Damn, how did we forget about Ma Mengqi, a fierce general!"

When Zu Mao heard this, he also woke up from his suspicions, slapped the table, and shouted: "Commander Huang, if we turn around and go west now." Chase up, is it too late? ”

Pingshu is on the west side of Daigun.

Now the main force of the Wei army has just arrived at the junction of Daijun Road. There will be at least two or three days before they will be recruited, and if they are pursued at this time, there may not be no hope of blocking them again.

"Commander Zu, you borrow a division of cavalry!"

Huang Zhong became resolute, and he stood up directly. The battle armor that had just been removed put on again, the big sword in his hand, and said very directly: "I will catch up with them first, and hold them back at all costs, you lead the main force." Catch up as soon as possible, and definitely take them down before they enter Daishire! ”

"What about the south side?" Zu Mao asked.

"Pang Tong's estimation is wrong, he regards tens of thousands of suspicious troops as the main force, then his strategy must be to spread the net and fight, and the lack of Wei troops has become a breakthrough advantage, they will inevitably gather the main force, and then surprise a little, this time Pang Tong may have to suffer!"

Huang Zhong said: "You send someone to inform him first, I hope it will be in time, as for how to fight the rest, it's up to him, anyway, what we want is Zhang Liao, now that the main force is in the west, we will chase to the west!" ”

"Good!" Zu Mao nodded.

――――――――――――――――――――――

At this time, outside the city of Gu'an, under the confrontation between the two armies, the battle was continuous, the drums were roaring, and the blood was shrouded......

The puppet main force of the Wei army led by Tian Feng has jumped six or seven passes set up by Eastern Wu one after another, and now as long as he jumps out of the blockage of Gu'an City, it is equivalent to jumping out of the encirclement of Zhuojun.

As for the Eastern Wu side, at present, it can only rely on the Xianbei army to defend the southward way around the homeland.

But if they want to let the Xianbei army attack, it is simply impossible.

Therefore, the only way for them now is to let the Xianbei army defend and block the way, and then drag the main force of the Wu army's mad lion army southward to form a joint encirclement in order to annihilate this main force of the Wei army in one fell swoop.

"Kebineng Khan, let me say it first, at present, the east road and the middle road have been lost, if the west road is lost, don't ask our Dongwu and your Xianbei tribe to turn their faces!"

Pang Tong was worried about this battle, so he had already gone south from Zhuoxian County and arrived in Gu'an City in person.

In the lobby of the city, his eyes looked at the terrain around the Gu'an sand table, pointed to a few directions, and said in a deep voice: "The city, the official road, the two wolf mouths, and the northwest ridge, these are the four directions they can break through, you must defend it at any cost!" ”

Now that Fangcheng in the east has been lost, he is not surprised by this, after all, the troops are weak, as long as the Wei army is willing to pay the price and let them break out, it is also normal.

On the Zhuoxian side in the middle lane, although they killed a lot under the big battle, they still let them go south, which made Pang Tong a little angry.

Between the Xianbei tribe and the Eastern Wu, after all, it is only the same force but not the same heart.

But now that the heavily guarded road to the south of Gu'an must not be lost, he must not watch the main force of the Wei army break through like this.

"Chief of Staff Pang, Ben Great Khan knows how to do it!"

Kebineng nodded silently, he didn't want to turn his face with Dongwu now, so this battle couldn't be passed, and he had already made the decision to fight a big battle.

"Chief of Staff, now the spies released by Jinyi Wei are basically back!"

At this time, Jinyi Wei Qianhu Luo Ming walked in from outside the lobby, reported to Pang Tong, and said: "But there is still no trace of the army under Zhang Liao, only Tian Feng led less than 30,000 soldiers and horses, and their hidden troops are still missing!" ”

There are only soldiers and horses led by Tian Feng.

The main force of Zhang Liao was not found.

This made Pang Tong very anxious and worried, he was afraid that Zhang Liao would not know from which direction, pounce out, and give himself a hard blow.

"I can't find it, how can it be? It must be here! ”

Pang Tong's heart suddenly burst, his fists clenched involuntarily, his eyes were gloomy, staring at the march map, pulling out several directions from the march map in a row, shaking his head, and said, "Has this mountain range been searched?" ”

This is a mountain range to the west of Guanseong, and the terrain is very complicated, so it is easy to hide soldiers.

"Chief of Staff, this place is very complicated, our spies have only searched roughly, and they have not found anything for the time being!" Luo Ming said: "But they are hiding here, and it is of little use, and they can't get out of Zhuojun here!" ”

"Everything will exist as long as it is possible, search again!"

Pang Tong's eyes were gloomy, and he shouted: "Jinyi Wei must do whatever it takes, only by finding out Zhang Liao's main force, we can deploy encirclement and suppression, he must be hiding in the dark, waiting to give us a fatal blow, we can't let them hide in the dark!" ”

"No!"

Luo Ming solemnly received the order. (To be continued.) )
