The sound of the second watch has sounded, and the street is empty, but a carriage with a dark blue shed and a carriage with palace lights is heading towards Dongcheng little by little, and Dongcheng has been abandoned because of the war disaster of the year, and the craftsmen and walkers who live here are all craftsmen and walkers who built the city.

A general got off the carriage, and the general did not ride a horse that night, because the horse riding was too ostentatious, and he didn't want people to know that he had been here, and this general was none other than Liu Xuanzhi, the vanguard general who had just been appointed.

"Bell bell~" The knock on the door was particularly long in the long empty alley, and there was a question from inside the house, "Who?" ”

"Brother Dao Ji, I'm Liu Xuanzhi, it's really disturbing Brother Xian's rest at such a late hour, but I have something important to discuss with Brother Xian!" After Liu Xuanzhi finished speaking, he saw that there seemed to be a lamp in the house, and gradually the light came out of the room, and after a while, the door opened.

Tan Daoji's eyes were a little hazy, wearing a wide robe, holding a lamp in his hand, and when he saw Liu Xuanzhi, he said very sincerely, "Congratulations, Brother Xuanzhi, the time has come to make contributions!" ”

This Tan Daoji's "sincere" congratulations are completely ironic in Liu Xuanzhi's eyes, but now he has a request for others, but he can't get angry, so he can only walk into the house with a smile.

After finding a place to sit down, he clasped his hands into fists and said, "I came here for this matter, and I hope that Brother Dao Jixian will save me!" ”

Tan Daoji looked at Liu Xuanzhi with a puzzled expression, and then said, "Taishou let the general serve as the vanguard, this is a good thing, what does the general want?" ”

"I only have 5,000 people, and that Sun En has wreaked havoc, and now he is known as a hundred thousand! How could I be her opponent! Liu Xuanzhi's face was full of sorrow, telling about the difficulties he faced.

"To deal with that rabble, as a vanguard, five thousand men and horses are enough!"

"Huh?" Liu Xuanzhi looked stunned, but he didn't look like he was teasing himself.

"Please also teach me!" Liu Xuanzhi bowed deeply, he was also very solemn about the life of his family.

"Brother Xuan doesn't have to be so polite, Sun En has three shortcomings, as long as we grasp these three points, then Sun En will be defeated!" Tan Daoji said with a smile.

"This Sun En, although he claims to be 100,000, but the soldiers he shelters are unarmed people and homeless people, they have been through a county town, robbed a county town, their grain, grass, and materials are not guaranteed, as the saying goes, the soldiers and horses do not move the grain and grass first, this time for a long time, this common people see that they are fighting with Sun En at the risk of their lives, and they have to go hungry, which is bound to make people feel disheartened." After Tan Daoji finished speaking, he took out a large piece of brocade silk from under the bed. You must know that such a large piece of silk can be exchanged for a lot of money, like Tan Daoji is still wearing a cloth coat, but he has the money to use this large piece of silk to draw a map.

"Second, although Sun En's subordinates claim to have heavenly soldiers and generals, but Brother Xuan has been in contact with them, and they are just some bandits and ruffians, if you talk about the art of war and formation, I expect that few of Sun En's subordinates understand, even if they do, the soldiers under their hands are undisciplined, and they can't arrange troops."

"As for the third point, that is our position is wonderful, now Sun En wants to attack this Xingpu, the location of this Xingpu City is extremely poor, with Sun En's marching speed, from that Shangyu to Xingpu, it takes five days' foot, and from Xingpu to Shanyin takes two days, and that Yuyao and Shangyu have been in turmoil for a long time, and this year coincides with the wind disaster, presumably the grain and grass in this treasury must be insufficient, they still have something to eat on the road in the first two days, and the next three days are marching on an empty stomach, if we attack first, this will inevitably make Sun En's vanguard army rout!"

Liu Xuanzhi had changed from hesitation to joy at this time, listening to Tan Daoji's words, he seemed to have seen an upcoming victory. "In that case, Xie Taishou is not making things difficult for me!"

"Xie Yan is too guarded, experienced in a hundred battles, although his personality is a little unruly, but whether it is dealing with Fu Jian's million-strong division or Wang Gong's rebels, he is at ease, he is experienced, and he will definitely not mess around." Tan Daoji didn't say everything, this 5,000 men and horses sent to this Liu Xuanzhi is still too little, if there are more 5,000, this Tan Daoji is even estimated to be able to completely drive this Sun En back to the sea.

Liu Xuanzhi shook his head, "In recent years, this Xie Taishou likes to drink, and likes to make friends with some elegant people, and his personality is not dead, so stable as he was back then." ”

In late May, Liu Xuanzhi set out from Huiji City with 5,000 men and horses, and fortified the section from Xingpu to Shanyin.

"Gotta win, gotta win!"

He repeated this sentence repeatedly in his heart, Tan Daoji was not completely sure whether the five thousand pioneers could win the first battle, but to be able to experience such a big battle in his first battle and defeat this thief soldier, there is nothing more enjoyable than this, but it is a pity that he went too quickly, and did not call Xue Tong that guy, otherwise it must be more interesting.

The wind disaster a few days ago made the land outside the city muddy, and Tan Daoji led the horse to walk in the mud with one foot and one foot shallow, as if the mud on the ground was the enemy, and he had to trample them to pieces.

Liu Xuanzhi treated 5,000 people, in the area of Shanyin, Huiji Shanyin is a famous city, in the Han and Jin dynasties, it is the capital of the south of the Yangtze River. Wang Xizhi's "Orchid Pavilion Preface" in "Huiji Shanyin Orchid Pavilion" refers to "Orchid Pavilion in Shanyin City". At this time, they began to set up a formation outside Nanhu, Liu Xuanzhi and Tan Daoji both knew that this Sun En's group marched all the way, and they must be thirsty, and when they arrived at Nanhu, they would inevitably stop to drink water and rest.

"If a group of strong bows are placed on the north side of this lake, it will be more advantageous in battle." Liu Xuanzhi's initial self-confidence at this time, looking at the calm water, his heart was full of fighting spirit.

"It's a good location, downwind, and the terrain is steep, but there are too few trees to hide it." At this time, Tan Daoji had already begun to describe the appearance of the war in his mind, and his words seemed to be said to this Liu Xuanzhi, but it was more like talking to himself.

"That's it!"

Sun En's troops, when they arrived at this South Lake, it was two o'clock the next day, and the scouts casually took a turn around this South Lake, and then went to report back, and after a while, the vanguard troops followed. Drawing water, making fire, Tan Daoji wore armor, with a helmet engraved with tiger stripes, sitting on a batch of variegated horses, he was in charge of the rear of the palace, Liu Xuanzhi was responsible for the charge, and Liu Xuanzhi's henchman Wang Fu detoured from the right flank.

When the smoke rose, a rain of arrows fell from the sky, and the general of Sun En's vanguard immediately mounted his horse and organized to meet the enemy, but those soldiers did not have such military qualities as theirs, and the first thing they thought of was to run. But Liu Xuanzhi, who swooped down from a high place, as soon as he touched the enemy's main camp, the battle immediately began, Liu Xuanzhi took his team of light horses, and rushed over from the south, and then Tan Daoji also joined the battle with a group of reinforcements.

At the beginning of the battle, this Tan Daoji's heart was still faintly worried, but as the battle unfolded, the Jin army, which had already occupied the advantage of the formation, was like a bamboo, and the thieves below were originally more chaotic.

Looking at the defeated thief soldiers, Tan Daoji muttered, "The first battle has been won, and the time has come for me to make contributions!" ”
