In the afternoon, at the beginning of the unitary hour, there was a large camp in the city of Nanwuyang. %

More than ten Yellow Turban Qu Shuai who received an urgent notice gathered together, and Guan Hai, who was tall and burly with a beard on his face, glanced at the audience, waved his big hand to signal quiet, and loudly repeated the emergency information sent by Xu He, and then said to the big and small Qu Shuai who reacted fiercely:

"Judging from the current situation, I am afraid that all walks of life will temporarily stop preparing to go south, and if they do not eliminate the Langya army that is approaching Fei County, no one knows what will happen in the future, and if we do not press the Xuzhou army from Xu Shuai East Road, we will not be able to achieve the purpose of mobilizing the main force of the Xuzhou army to move eastward, and we will not be able to attack Cao Bao with peace of mind."

In the chaotic discussion, Zhang Rao, who was on Guan Hai's left, stood up with a resentful face: "Everyone, Langya Jun is my Zhang Rao's enemy!" It is precisely because of the trickery of the Langya army that I lost the territory of Dong'an and Dongguan counties, and more than a dozen good brothers such as Shen Qiao, Yang Gu, Hu Dongyue, Zhang Chang, Zhai Mian, etc., who have been in a hundred battles, ascended to heaven in the bloody battle with the Langya army, it can be said that the Ya army is not only my Zhang Rao's enemy, but also the enemy of nearly 10,000 surviving brothers under my command! ”

The big and small commanders immediately remembered that Zhang Rao was beaten out by the Langya army, and they all turned to Zhang Rao to listen to what he said.

Zhang Rao took a deep breath and calmed down his excitement slightly: "Brothers, I'm afraid that my Zhang Rao's words below are not good, but brother, I am by no means an elder who destroys his own ambition, the Langya army is different from all officers and soldiers, their knives are longer and sharper, their spear heads are made of fine iron, which can penetrate three layers of leather armor, and the triangular spearhead is in addition to three blood grooves, and there is a hook that can drag the war horse, and their ordinary pawns are wearing solid plate armor, and their heads are leather helmets covered with thin copper plates, The military uniforms in their armor are also different from those of the officers and soldiers in various places, the collar and narrow sleeves are red, and the others are all black, they do not disturb the people wherever they go, but take out grain, sea salt and even ploughing oxen and rakes to give to the people, and they also go to help the people farm in addition to training, and their commander Liu Cun is even more famous, so they can get the support of the local people everywhere they go, and the people are willing to risk death to lead the way for them and transport grain for them. ”

Zhang Rao sat down after speaking, lowered his head and held a tea bowl and never said a word, he really wanted to have a bloody battle with the Langya army, but unfortunately he was weak, he did not contribute much when attacking Nanwuyang, and in the end he only got three months of food and 5,000 women, and nearly half of the more than 8,000 soldiers under his command were old, weak, sick and disabled, and their combat effectiveness was still so weak.

The big and small marshals quickly withdrew their eyes from Zhang Rao, and talked about it, some said that there was no need to worry about the large number of people and horses over there in Xu He, what should we do, and some said that they would simply join forces to attack Cao Bao directly, even if there was no Xu and twenty or thirty thousand horses to contain on the east road, it would not matter, but no one said whether to lead troops to aid Xu He, and there was still no result in the bustling evening.

At this time, an urgent report came that Mengyin County, which had been controlled by the Yellow Turban Army for several years, was occupied by the Langya Army from Dong'an and Dongguan!

Except for being slightly surprised, everyone didn't react much, and after ridiculing a few words of Mengyin colleagues who died in peace, everyone's attention was once again focused on the Xuzhou army in the south.

Only Guan Hai was secretly anxious in his heart, losing the important transportation hub of Mengyin County, which was equivalent to the Taishan Yellow Turban Army losing the room to move in the east and north, and the southern area of Yimeng, a radius of 300 miles, was no longer a stable place for the Yellow Turban Army to recuperate.

Seeing that all his colleagues were discussing how to storm Cao Bao's Xuzhou army in the south, Guan Hai couldn't say anything, and after weighing it for a long time, he stood up and said:

"I decided, the 20,000 foot soldiers under my command will stay for the time being, and I will personally lead the 800 cavalry under my command to help Xu Shuai and them fight a battle, and I will not destroy the Langya army that is approaching step by step.

Sun Qing, the commander of the Yellow Turban Army from Lushan, was the leader of the remnants of the army who escaped from the battle of Yangzhai that year, he was quite righteous, and had a good relationship with Guan Hai, seeing that no one was willing to help Xu He, he thought about it and stood up resolutely: "Big brother, do you need the younger brother to take the two battalions of people together?" ”

Guan Hai said with a smile: "Don't use it for the time being, what the brothers said is reasonable, Xu Shuai has 30,000 capable combat brothers, dealing with 10,000 people in the Langya army, even if he can't win, he won't lose, not to mention that the Langya army has more than 10,000 people, it must include the people who transport grain and grass and the craftsmen who accompany the battalion, and sixty percent of the officers and soldiers who can pick up swords and guns are good, what I'm worried about is the three thousand cavalry of the Langya army, if Xu Shuai doesn't deal with it well, I'm afraid he will suffer, think about it, just take the eight hundred cavalry brothers to see if it can help." It is estimated that the war has started on Xu Shuai's side now, and most of your troops are infantry, and it will take two days to rush over, and I will arrive in half a day with the cavalry. ”

Sun Qing nodded: "It's okay, that little brother is waiting for you, if you don't come back, the little brother will never act rashly." ”

Guan Hai smiled with satisfaction, and then bowed his hand to the big and small Qu Shuai who looked different in the hall, and quickly went out to gather the eight hundred cavalry under his command, and rushed to Fei County, eighty miles to the southeast, before dark.

When night fell, a gong sounded rapidly, and Xu He's more than 10,000 yellow turban foot soldiers turned around and ran, quickly leaving the battlefield west of the Xucun camp, and the camp of the Langya army suddenly resounded with earth-shattering cheers, and Xu He's second tentative attack came to an end.

On the dirt slope less than two miles away from the battlefield, Xu He and more than a dozen leaders of various departments under his command have been staring at the nearly 10,000 foot soldiers who have retreated like a tide, the cold air is full of flying dust and a faint smell of blood, and the various shouts and rebukes from the chaotic team under his command intersect with the cheers of the Langya army, and they are so noisy that they can't hear each other clearly when they talk to each other.

"Look, handsome! Langyajun put down the drawbridge—"

Xu He hurriedly raised his neck to look, and with the last ray of twilight and hazy light, he finally saw the movement of the Langya army on the opposite side, and the battle command that he wanted to shout out choked in his throat: "What's the matter?" The Langya army only put down two suspension bridges, not like they were going to attack, and lit so many bonfires, isn't this the enemy secretly asking for trouble? What do they want to do? Do you want to fight with us at night? ”

The leaders on the side couldn't figure it out, and they looked nervously from afar but couldn't get the point.

After a while, a fast horse passed through the gap between the gradually gathering infantry in front of him and came to the bottom of the dirt slope, and immediately the steaming Sima Ju flew down and reported loudly:

"Big brother, the Langya Army released five brothers who were captured by them to come back and send a message, telling us to stop fighting for the time being, their soldiers and military doctors will go out to rescue people, and carry back the hundreds of injured brothers who we didn't have time to save back for treatment. At first, the younger brother was afraid that they would make trouble, so he did not agree, but one of them came out empty-handed and pleaded loudly, saying that the hundreds of brothers lying outside the camp would die if they were not treated, and if they were carried back to stop the bleeding, they might be able to survive, and the younger brother did not want to lose face, let alone cold the hearts of the brothers, so he agreed without authorization, and secretly transferred 2,000 archers to both sides to monitor their every move. ”

Xu He was taken aback, thinking of the words of Liu Cun that Ni Qing brought back after the war letter, he suddenly felt that it was not a taste, and he sighed quietly after being silent for a long time:

"This Liu Zijian is really extraordinary! The two armies fought to the death, and he did so benevolent, let's ...... Forget it, collect the troops and return to the camp, and double the scouts to prevent the Langya cavalry from sneaking up after retreating to the foot of the northeast mountain. ”

Sima Ju turned around and got on his horse and left quickly, giving him a headache with the elusive 3,000 Langya cavalry, so that more than 30,000 brothers did not dare to let go of the attack on the camp of the Langya army, and had to admire the clever strategy of the Langya army.
