PS: Yesterday's daughter-in-law had a high fever and stayed up most of the night with children, so the big guy understands.

———— the following text————

The Fifth Battalion of the Northern Army was not stationed in nearby cities and counties, because there were many supernumerary personnel in this army, and even if the 7,500 cavalry members of the Tun Cavalry Battalion were removed, there was also the logistics responsible for the food and grass of the whole army, and it was roughly estimated that the total number of this army was about 70,000, but only 20,000 of them were really used for battle.

It was precisely because of the large number of people that he didn't want to burden the nearby county seats, so Lu Zhi chose to set up an army in Sanxing Linyuan, which was in the corner of the three county towns of Rencheng, Nanhe, and Pingxiang.

But to be honest, Lu Zhi originally planned to settle here, because when he came, he had already come up with a plan to deal with the Yellow Turban Army in Pingxiang County. If the original plan was followed, Lu Zhi could take Pingxiang County without much effort, and use this county as the first real stronghold of the Northern Army in Jizhou, and use it as a springboard to slowly attack the Yellow Turban Army in Jizhou.

But what I never expected was that the Yellow Turban Thief had a "Zhang Baiqi", which not only made Lu Zhi's clever plan return in vain, but also took advantage of the long-term superiority of the Northern Army to skillfully give the Northern Army a head start twice, which made the Northern Army not only lose hundreds of precious and excellent soldiers, but also greatly reduced the morale of the whole army.

What's worse is that the missteps of the Yue cavalry battalion allowed the Pingxiang Yellow Turbans to get about 400 war horses, what does this mean? This means that he, Lu Zhi's original plan to completely annihilate this Yellow Turban thief, in order to encourage the local government and deter the rest of the world's Yellow Turban strategy has also come to naught.

But it's okay. Although there is a slight deviation in strategy, at the tactical level, Lu Zhi believes that his side still has an absolute advantage. Don't look at today's Yellow Turban Thief, it seems that he has made a small attack on the Northern Army. The design took away 400 war horses, but if the "Zhang Baiqi" felt that this alone was enough to reverse the advantages and disadvantages of the two sides, then Lu Zhi felt that he had to dispel this absurd idea from the other side.

But facts have proved that Zhang Sheng, the head of the Pingxiang Yellow Turban Thief named "White Cavalry" by Liu Biao, the middle marquis of the Northern Army, did not seem to get carried away because he won a battle, no, when Lu Zhi was discussing the offensive and defensive strategy of the entire Jizhou in the humble tent with the deputy general Zong, the lieutenant Liu Biao of the Northern Army, and the infantry captain Liu Jiang, the captain of the Tun cavalry, and the captain Ma Riyan of the shooting sound. Then a knight from the Changshui camp brought the good news with joy.

"Report!"

With a somewhat joyful announcement, a light cavalry of the Northern Army galloping on a horse turned over and dismounted in front of the tent. After receiving permission from Lu Zhi in the tent, the knight walked in with the tent. Knocking on the ground and clenching his fists, he said in a deep voice with a little joy, "Lu Shuai, my Changshui camp follows Lu Shuai's instructions." has been shun lì control zhì the entire Pingxiang County. The lieutenant ordered me to come back immediately and report to Lu Shuai. The captain in his mouth refers to his captain of the Changshui Battalion, Matteo.

"You've done a great job." Lu Zhi smiled politely. Not to mention, his words were really just polite, because this time the Changshui Battalion took Pingxiang County, not so much to conquer, but rather to receive it by the cavalry of the Changshui Battalion after Zhang Huang took the initiative to lead the troops to withdraw, and there was no confrontation between the soldiers and horses.

The knight clenched his fists and said a few words, "How dare you." Then he withdrew from the tent with interest, and Lu Zhi. He didn't rejoice at all about recovering Pingxiang County, but shook his head with a wry smile.

Seeing this, Liu Jiang, the infantry captain, was puzzled and asked suspiciously, "Regain Pingxiang County...... Isn't it bad? ”

As soon as Lu Zhi heard it, he knew that Liu Jiang had misunderstood, and waved his hand to explain, "It's not that it's bad to recover Pingxiang, the old man just regrets it...... It's a pity that 'Zhang Baiqi' is not a stubborn and conceited person after all. Knowing that we had defeated our army in the daytime, and still attacked our entire northern army with dozens of horsemen, if it were an ordinary person, perhaps they would arrogantly think that our northern army was vulnerable...... However, this thief was able to resolutely choose to withdraw after such a shocking feat, which shows that this person 'knows how to advance and retreat'! …… understands 'knowing advance and retreat', and he can already be called a qualified general. ”

Liu Jiang frowned slightly when he heard this, of course he knew that the most important thing as a general was to "know how to advance and retreat", and he knew when to enter and when to withdraw his troops, but he was just not sure what Lu Zhi meant by saying this at this time.

At this time, Liu Biao, the middle marquis of the Northern Army, said with a somewhat ridiculous smile, "Duke Lu is afraid of that 'Zhang Baiqi'?" ”

Lu Zhi glanced at Liu Biao, who gave Zhang Huang the nickname "White Horse", a little helplessly, and saw that he even had a bit of a narrow and teasing look on his face, and he couldn't cry or laugh in his heart, and after shaking his head helplessly, he said slowly, "Sort of!" …… A small Pingxiang, the Northern Army can take it at any time? But that 'Zhang Bai rides'...... When the knight entered the tent just now, the old man actually hoped that the 'Zhang Bai Cavalry' would be trapped in Pingxiang......"

In the current situation, trapping Pingxiang means dying here, so the meaning of Lu Zhi's words is not difficult to understand, that is, he hopes that Zhang Baiqi, no, it should be Zhang Huang, die in Pingxiang!

"......" Lu Zhi's reply made Liu Biao slightly surprised, of course he would not think that the reason why Lu Zhi said this was because he hated Zhang Huang, and hated Zhang Huang for only entering the Northern Army with dozens of yellow scarves, and assassinated him, the commander of the Northern Army, twice in front of everyone, causing him to lose face in front of the entire Northern Army.

Frowning and thinking carefully for a moment, Liu Biao whispered in a solemn and somewhat suspicious tone, "It's not going to become a big problem, right?" ”

"Hard to say!" Lu Zhi let out a long sigh, stroked his beard and slowly commented, "The old man Guan 'Zhang Baiqi' is not as old as the weak crown, but he has such martial strategy and courage, if such a character is not cut off when he is young, he will definitely become a big trouble for the imperial court in the future!" ”

"Lu Gong's words are a bit too heavy, right?" Liu Biao glanced at Lu Zhi with a suspicious face. In all fairness, although Liu Biao was very optimistic about Zhang Huang's bravery and courage on the battlefield, it was actually a condescending scrutiny. To put it bluntly, Liu Biao felt that if he wanted to deal with this person, he would definitely be caught, so he praised Zhang Huang in front of Lu Zhi and the captains of the battalions without any worries, and gave Zhang Huang the nickname "White Horse". But actually. Liu Biao's evaluation of Zhang Huang is just "very powerful, but that's all". Unexpectedly, Lu Zhi regarded Zhang Huang as a big problem for the imperial court in the future. This made Liu Biao, the initiator, inevitably a little surprised.

"It's just the old man's speculation." Seeing Liu Biao's suspicious look, Lu Zhi no longer explained, and laughed it off.

However, Liu Biao was interested, and asked with a smile when he saw this, "Lu Gong is good at reading people, and the world knows it, just like Brother Bogui...... The table is somewhat curious. I don't know how 'Zhang Baiqi' compares to Brother Bogui? ”

Brother Bogui in Liu Biao's mouth refers to one of Lu Zhi's proud students, and. It is now a famous general in Youzhou who has risen to such a high position as Zhonglang Jiang, Gongsun Zhan.

is different from Zhang Huang, a small role like a budding actor, Gongsun Zhan's reputation in Youzhou is well known, especially Xi Wuhuan, who was conquered by him. They all fearfully called him "General White Horse". The prestige is no less than that of Sun Jian, the "Tiger of Jiangdong", and Dong Zhuo, the "Evil Jiao of Longxi", all of whom belong to the fierce generals on the side of the megatron. Even, because Gongsun Zhan once defeated tens of thousands of cavalry in Xiwuhuan with only 3,000 cavalry, his fame was even higher than that of Sun Jian and Dong Zhuo.

But Lu Zhi, who was mentioned as a proud disciple, was not very optimistic, because he saw through Gongsun Zhan's temperament: remembering and forgetting goodness.

As the name suggests, it means that we often remember the bad of others, but forget the good of others. People of this character. It is destined not to have too many friends, and it is even more difficult to become the master of the people. Because demerits and forgetfulness are explained in other words, rewards and punishments are not clear. This is the most taboo thing to do as a human master.

Therefore, to be honest, Lu Zhi is not optimistic about Gongsun Zhan, even if Gongsun Chan has now become a prominent Zhonglang general, it is only in terms of martial arts, but in terms of life, what Gongsun Chan lacks is the mind and strength of being the master of the people. The so-called enlightened people have more help, and those who have lost the Tao have little help, his character is destined to make it difficult for him to achieve great things in the future, because in many cases, personal connections are always limited, and more have to rely on the connections of guests and friends, but unfortunately this is precisely Gongsun Zhan's shortcomings.

Recalling that Zhang Huang was alone among the captains of the fifth battalion of the Northern Army at that time, and his situation was critical, but the dozens of horsemen still did not retreat, but Yang Feng also led the war horse over to help Zhang Huang escape, Lu Zhi shook his head slightly, and said lightly, "It's hard to compare." ”

Lu Zhi's original intention was to say that Zhang Huang's personality charm is far above Gongsun Zhan, so there is no way to compare the two, after all, it is impossible for him to measure the talents of the two by their current achievements, you must know that Gongsun Zhan is over thirty years old now, how old is Zhang Huang? Not yet weak crown! There is a difference of more than ten years between the two. After more than ten years, who knows what will happen in the future?

Thinking of this, Lu Zhi couldn't help but think of the appearance of another student, a student who looked rough and difficult to achieve, and the students who had the opportunity to worship him only after being helped by his uncle and the same sect, Liu Bei and Liu Xuande.

It is quite unbelievable that Gongsun Chan is far superior to Liu Bei in terms of Wen Taowu strategy, but Lu Zhi is more optimistic about the latter, because Liu Bei's character is exactly the opposite of Gongsun Zhan, that is, he forgets his mistakes. To put it bluntly, it is very generous to others and can tolerate the mistakes made by others. Such a character, in Lu Zhi's opinion, is what he already has as a human master. As for Wen Taowu's strategy, Lu Zhi doesn't take it so seriously, after all, if everything is done by the lord, then what do his subordinates and staff do?

“…… If you don't make a hit, it's a blockbuster! Lu Zhi, who was outside the world, nodded and commented on Liu Bei.

Everyone in the tent was stunned when they heard this, how did they know that Lu Zhi was actually evaluating Liu Bei, another of his students, and they all mistakenly thought that the evaluation was "Zhang Baiqi", but after thinking about it carefully, they felt that Lu Zhi's words were not unreasonable.

Because before this, they had never heard of a young general named "Zhang Sheng" in the Yellow Turban Army, in other words, an unknown person, but today, that nameless person made their entire Northern Army lose face, isn't this exactly "If you don't make a sound, it's just a blockbuster"?

"That's right." Ma Riyan, the captain of the shooting battalion, nodded with a wry smile, and then he chuckled and said, "But there is the entire Yue Cavalry Battalion, and I believe that the 'henchmen' mentioned by Lu Gong will eventually fall in this battle." …… No matter how fast that 'Zhang Baiqi' escaped, he couldn't escape the pursuit of the knights of the 2,500 Yue cavalry battalion, right? ”

This person is the grandson of the great Confucian Ma Rong, and Ma Rong is Lu Zhi's teacher, so he has an excellent relationship with Lu Zhi, although Lu Zhi is a generation older than him according to his generation.

Lu Zhi was stunned, and then he came to his senses, so as not to let people see through that he was actually out of the world, so he had to nod vaguely.

Everyone, whether it was Lu Zhi, Liu Biao, Liu Jiang, Ma Riyan, and Bao Hong who were in the tent at the moment, or Ma Cheng, who had led the Changshui battalion to take over Pingxiang County, or Wu Fu, who was leading 2,500 Yue cavalry to chase Zhang Huang along the way, they all subconsciously believed that the more than 400 war horses that Zhang Huang wanted to capture with all his might should be used to help his Yellow Turban soldiers evacuate from Pingxiang County.

In fact, Zhang Huang himself thought about it before this, after all, if three people ride a horse together, although the combat ability is minimal, but in terms of footsteps, it is definitely faster than just two feet. Even if there is a pursuit of the knights of the Yue Cavalry Battalion behind him, it is not even possible to escape on the front line.

But when they were about to evacuate from Pingxiang County two hours ago, Zhang Huang suddenly changed his mind and scattered the more than 1,000 yellow scarves that the three of them rode together into an infantry force of nearly 1,000 people and a ...... of 400 people Cavalry!

At this time, the crazy idea that suddenly flashed in his mind made Zhang Baiqi and the four hundred horsemen under his command quietly come to the Sanxing Forest Plain where the Northern Army was stationed, and with the help of the night, he watched from afar the main camp of the Northern Army that temporarily did not have the two light cavalry armies of the Changshui Battalion and the Yue Cavalry Battalion, and it was also a main camp of the Northern Army that was not even surrounded by the camp fence because of time problems.

Glancing at the deployment of the black pressure behind him, Zhang Huang, who was in the lead, lowered his voice and said, "I want to pee at a speed!" Later, I won't pee on you halfway! ”

On his left, Guo Tai grinned and whispered, "I'm too excited to pee." ”

Zhang Huang was a little amused when he heard this, and immediately, he took a deep breath, clamped his legs between the horse's belly, and shouted in a low voice, "It's up, little ones!" …… Surprised Lu Zhi'er! ”

"Wow——!"

Under the cover of the deep night, Zhang Huang, who had already escaped with the help of horsepower, took four hundred Yellow Turban warriors and straddled the war horses captured from the knights of the Yue Cavalry Battalion of the Northern Army, and quickly killed the main camp of the Northern Army.

No one had predicted that the 400 war horses that were intended to be used in the retreat would finally be used to attack the main camp of the Northern Army at night, including Zhang Huang, who was the party concerned.

[This tactic is simply out of order......]

Following behind Zhang Huang, generals Bian Xi and Lang Ping had words of suffering, and God knows how they suddenly became the main camp of the Northern Army in a night attack when they said that they were retreating. (To be continued......)
