"The Four-Way Army?" Zhao Feng was also taken aback when he heard Gan Ning and Zhou Tai explain the overall situation in detail. The news of his sittings in Jingnan was blocked, and he only thought that Meng Shu was coming, but he didn't expect Cao Ying to make such a big move.

"Exactly, the lord ordered us to tell the general that he personally led the army to the enemy Cao Ying, and the matter of the Southern Barbarians was solved by the general himself. The army of the lord has arrived in Qian County, and Mr. Xianhe has also sent an envoy to Hebei, asking General Yuan to send troops according to the agreement and attack Cao Ying on both sides. Chen Zhi replied.

"That's fine." Zhao Feng promised it, but he was a little surprised in his heart. There is no other reason, this time the four-way army is attacking violently, how do you look like a copy of the five-way army attacking Xishu in history, is this Sima Yi's idea?

In fact, Zhao Feng is still quite jealous of Sima Yi, who dragged Zhuge Liang to death in history, this old man is just like that poisonous snake, he endured it for a long time before he gave you a fatal blow, and he could even pretend to be a grandson to go home before, Cao Shuang was so yin by him. Now that he is in Jingnan, don't be overturned in the gutter by his calculations.

"General, I don't know what the situation is now?" After everyone sat down, Zhou Tai, who was the most anxious, asked first. "Just now, General Sha sent someone to report that Nanzhong Meng had raised 100,000 troops to invade my Wuling County. The pioneer is the brave general Ehuan, who led an army of 10,000 to reach the Yuanjiang River. Zhao Feng said slowly.

"Yuanjiang?" Chen Zhi was a little surprised when he heard this. "This barbarian army is so brave that it has reached the Yuanjiang River so quickly?" Gan Ning was also quite surprised.

"Hehe, the two generals don't know, I ordered General Sha to give up the land west of the Yuan River, and wait until the 10,000-strong army of Ehuan crosses the Yuanjiang River, Xingba you immediately lead the water army to block their retreat, and prevent Meng Shu from attacking, and we will lead the army to kill Ehuan head-on!" Zhao Feng smiled confidently.

"The last general understands!" Chen Zhi and the other three all agreed to the words with a bang. Zhao Feng has few soldiers, even after Chen Zhi and they led the army to reinforcements, Zhao Feng only had a total of 50,000 or 60,000 horses on hand, including the new army and the naval division, and the combat effectiveness of the land battle was not strong. Therefore, in the face of 100,000 brave and warlike barbarian troops, it is not possible to fight hard. In Chen Zhi's opinion, it is a good way to let the enemy go and slowly clean up the river little by little.

However, when the ranking officials saw this, they should be able to think that Zhao Feng would not just use such a simple strategy.

Not to mention that Zhao Feng and the others were preparing separately, at this time, E Huan, the vanguard of the barbarian army, led an army of 10,000 people to rush towards the Yuanjiang River. Along the way, although the Ehuan Department also encountered several small groups of troops of the Wuxi barbarian tribe to attack and harass, the largest number of people was only a hundred people, and they all rode on horses and ran away after shooting arrows from a distance. There are few horses in Nanzhong, and Ehuan, a vanguard team of 10,000 people, only has hundreds of horses, and they are powerless to fight back in the face of this attack. After all, no matter how fast a man runs, he can't compare to a four-legged horse.

"When did Shamoko become so timid and only shoot arrows and run away?" E Huan looked at a Nanzhong soldier in front of him who had just been killed by a poisoned arrow, and said viciously. When they had just crossed a forest, several Wuxi barbarians shot poisoned arrows at them. If it weren't for the soldier who pushed himself away, maybe he would have hung up by now, but the price he paid was that the soldier himself was hit by an arrow. Although he was not injured at the critical point, the Wuxi poison really sealed his throat with blood, and he only struggled twice before hanging.

"Leave two men to bury this brother, and tell the army to be on guard and march. As long as you get out of this forest, you can walk another twenty miles to the Yuanjiang River. When I cross the river, I want to see where Shamoko can hide. After all, E Huan was the leader of this barbarian army, and at this time, he still forced himself to calm down and come up with countermeasures, and finally decided that it would be better to fight steadily. E Huan knew that Shamoke was powerful, and his martial arts were by no means below him. If it weren't for Shamoke's powerlessness, the Nanzhong barbarians would have annexed the Wuxi barbarians long ago over the years. Now that he is uncharacteristically not fighting with him head-on, he is just harassing, and E Huan feels that something is not quite right in this matter, so it is better to be careful.

"Ehuan is really a good guy!" In the depths of the dense forest, Shamoko, who was covered in green leaf juice, saw the Southern Barbarian Army moving cautiously through the clumps of leaves, and he also grinned.

"General Sha, we should also withdraw, and we will clean them up when they cross the river." It was Zhu Ran, who was also covered in green next to Shamoke, who spoke. For this kind of almost performance art-like costume, Kou Feng and the others were not very interested, but Zhu Ran was so willing that he was almost reluctant to put on the armor, and he and Shamoke scurried around in the woods every day, sometimes howling in their throats.

"I know, let's ride a horse, there's a boat to the south." Shamoke patted his buttocks, and was the first to walk to an open field in the south, Zhu Ran led people to follow, and everyone rode south together, and then everyone crossed the Yuan River on the boat prepared by Jingxiang Sailor.

Not long after, E Huan led the army to the Yuanjiang River, which is not particularly wide, but there are still dozens of zhang. E Huan looked at the wide river and knew that it was impossible to swim across the river, and it was unrealistic to build a pontoon bridge. After learning that the ships upstream and downstream had been requisitioned, E Huan ordered people to cut down bamboo and wood in the north of the river and make rafts to prepare for crossing the river.

In the end, there are many people and great strength, and 10,000 people shot at the same time, and hundreds of bamboo rafts were built at night. In the early morning of the next day, E Huan gave an order, and hundreds of rafts were all launched into the water to transport the barbarians with a carrying capacity of more than 3,000 people at a time. It took an hour, a total of three trips back and forth, and finally all crossed the river.

"Leave five hundred men to guard the rafts, and when the king arrives, they will cross the river!" E Huan admonished a small leader, and then led the army to continue advancing. As long as you cross the Yuan River, you can only go north for more than 50 miles to Linyuan County, the seat of Wuling County. E Huan believed that unless Shamoke and Jin Xuan completely stopped Wuling, they would definitely come out to fight him.

Shamoke did not disappoint him, just after Ehuan walked more than twenty miles, Ehuan saw Shamoke who was waiting for him, and the five thousand Wudang Flying Army under his command. In addition, there were 10,000 recruits led by Zhao Feng and Chen Zhi.

"Hahahaha, Shamoko, you shrunken turtle has finally come out!" Looking at the Jingzhou army in front of him, who was neatly lined up and still had an advantage in numbers, E Huan didn't mean to be scared at all. Like most of the barbarian armies in the south, Ehuan had always been dismissive of the combat effectiveness of the Han army. There is no other reason, just because there is really no one in the Yizhou army under Liu Zhang's command to stop them over the years, and the Nanzhong barbarians have gradually expanded from the initial only in Yongchang and Yunnan counties to the land of Xinggu and Qiqi. In E Huan's opinion, no matter how neatly you line up, he believes that with the 10,000 Nanzhong athletes under his command, it is enough to crush the Han army three times his size. The only thing that might be a little troublesome is the thousands of people in Shamoko.

Not to mention the little Jiujiu in E Huan's heart, at this time, Shamoke on the opposite side had already called for the battle directly. "E Huan, you and Lao Tzu have fought many times without winning or losing, do you have the courage to do it again today!" Shamoko roared as he tapped the pair of thistle bones in his hand.

"I'm afraid you won't make it?" After E Huan said this, he directly slapped his horse and stepped forward, and Shamoke fought on foot, and then the Jingzhou army suddenly became noisy when he saw it, and even the barbarian army had a bad face. However, the two people who fought fiercely naturally didn't care about these, and a Fang Tian halberd in E Huan's hand teased and provoked up and down, and the move was not far from Shamoke's vital point; Shamoke relied on his flexibility, and it was inconvenient for E Huan to move and dodge on the horse, and he was also surrounding him at the moment like a maggot with a bone. Once the weapons of the two intersect, they often swing back separately, and it seems that they are equal in terms of martial arts.

"Grandma's, it's really a advantage to have a beast!" After taking another trick from Ehuan, Shamoko muttered. After all, E Huan was on a horse, and the condescending result was that his strength increased by three points out of thin air. Although Shamoko was born with divine power, he couldn't take advantage of it now.

After a few more moves, Shamoke rolled on the spot and crossed under E Huan's horse's hooves, but raised his head and hit the horse's belly hard, and E Huan's war horse suddenly let out a mournful roar and fell to the ground.

"What?" Unexpectedly, Shamoke would use such a trick, and Ehuan fell off the horse by surprise. Just as he was about to get up, the thistle bone in front of him was handed over again. E Huan was helpless, so he could only sit on the ground and cross Fang Tianji in his hand to take this move.

"When" there was a loud bang, this time E Huan suffered a big loss, although he took this trick because of his unstable foothold, but the price he paid was that the tiger's mouth was cracked, and the whole person sat back on the ground under a burst of soreness in his arms, and he couldn't get up for a while. At the same time, Shamoko saw that his vitality was greatly damaged, and immediately pulled out his waist knife in his left hand and stepped forward to put it on his neck.

"Take it!" Shamoko roared angrily, and several Wudang Flying Army soldiers behind him hurriedly held ropes in their hands and stepped forward to tie them together. At this time, E Huan's subordinates saw that the leader was arrested, and they hurriedly grabbed it in a hurry. Where would the Jingzhou army be afraid of them, Zhao Feng waved his hand, and more than 10,000 Jingzhou troops took the Wudang Fei Army as the main force, and the new army stepped forward for the left and right wings, and it didn't take long for them to melee together.

"Hey!" After Zhao Feng picked off a Nanzhong soldier with one shot, he still paid attention to the battle situation in the four corners of his busy schedule. I have to say that the combat effectiveness of the Southern Army is still quite strong, they grow up in the mountains and forests with outstanding physical fitness, coupled with bloodthirsty surnames, such infantry individual combat effectiveness is extremely good, what is lacking is team combat ability.

Although the Nanzhong Army is strong, the Jingzhou Army is not dry. This 10,000 new army was trained by Chen, and its combat effectiveness was quite not weak, but what it lacked was actual combat experience, which could only be tempered by slowly grinding and tempering on the battlefield. However, when the Wudang Flying Army faced the Nanzhong Army, it had an absolute upper hand. Not only because the team is more capable of fighting, but also because the equipment is more advanced.

It must be admitted here that although the Nanzhong barbarians and the Shanyue people can smelt metal, their forging skills are significantly inferior to those of the Han people. The Wudang Flying Army is a special force that Zhao Feng has painstakingly managed, and the sergeants under his command are equipped with ring-headed knives made of the best fine iron in the Jingzhou army, and sometimes they can cut off the opponent's blades with a single swing. In addition, the Wudang Flying Army is equipped with leather armor, and the key parts are also protected by iron plates, and the protective ability is naturally much better than that of the barbarian army who only wears a beast skin. Zhao Feng took a cursory look and knew that this battle would not be lost.

"General be careful!" It was Zhao Feng's personal guard Niu Jin who swung his knife and smashed an arrow at Zhao Feng, Zhao Feng nodded at Niu Jin, and then waved his army to fight again. A battle lasted from noon to evening, and in the end, the Nanzhong army saw that it could not win, and retreated one after another. Zhao Feng asked Shamoke to lead the army to catch up slightly, that is.

"General, our army killed 1,500 enemies, captured about 1,000, and the rest all ran away, these southern barbarians, they are really fast! The New Army suffered more than 800 casualties, and the Wudang Flying Army also suffered nearly 200 casualties. After cleaning up the battlefield, Chen Zhi was a little angry.

"They can't run away, Xingba is waiting for them in Yuanjiang." Zhao Feng smiled. Then he seemed to be talking to himself and added: "It's good to run away a few." The voice was so low that it was almost inaudible, and even Chen Zhi, who was close at hand, didn't notice it.

Just when Zhao Feng and Chen Zhi were busy cleaning up the battlefield, under the city of Wancheng, Cao Hong was shouting for a battle with his might. "Red-faced thief, quickly crawl out of the city and eat your Grandpa Cao Hong!" Cao Hong's prancing horse shouted loudly, but next to him was Xu Huang with a helpless face.

Since the defeat and retreat to Xuzhou that year, Cao Hong has practiced martial arts diligently over the years, and his martial arts have indeed made great progress, so today he is full of confidence and took the initiative to challenge Guan Yu. But Xu Huang knew that with Cao Hong's martial arts, he would be able to fight to a tie with himself. Now just fighting Guan Yu like this, it is really self-defeating.

Cao Hong scolded for a few words, but saw the gate of Wancheng slowly open, and walked out of the two sides of the five hundred school swordsmen, in the middle of a Danfeng eye, lying silkworm eyebrows, face like a heavy jujube, two feet long, wearing a green robe and gold armor, dragging the green dragon Yanyue knife in his hand, and the red rabbit chasing the wind horse under the crotch, not angry and self-righteous, it was Guan Yu.
