To the north of the Fushan Mountains in the south of the Huai River, most of He Yilong's men and horses are setting up an ambush here, according to the expectation, as long as the official army is intercepted in the Huai River waterway, and then a small ambush on the north bank is used to force the official army to land on the south bank of the Huai River waterway, and then he is leading the main force of the army to cover and kill, so the iron rope across the river plan will be a great success. He He Yilong will also wash away the shame of defeat and defeat again and again.

However, two days have passed, and the officers and soldiers of the left and right have not advanced westward along the river as expected, and have repeatedly sent scouts, only to report that the officers and soldiers are still stranded at the wharf at the mouth of the five rivers and remain unmoved. After getting the reward, He Yilong was a little relieved, but there was always an extremely bad premonition, and the sky was always shining above his head.

At the end of the stall, Ma Shouying sent someone to point out that his dog was nosy with rats, and the Huai River waterway was not under his control, and he was ordered to be optimistic about the muddy water, and it was the right thing to quickly eliminate the small group of officers and soldiers who jumped everywhere, and stop playing......

He Yilong swallowed his anger and sent away the person who returned to the horse, and turned his face to scold: "What is the old return, I was also one of the best in the fifth battalion of the left ......, he saw me respectfully, and today I am in trouble, so snobbish" However, scolding and scolding, He Yilong has no way to take the old man back to Ma Shouying, who makes the soldiers strong and strong, he can only follow them to drink the wind.

The official army has not moved, He Yilong finally couldn't sit still, and planned to send the cavalry on the north bank to test it, who had a big incident at this time. Sure enough, on the night of the third day, a rout suddenly came from the north, and when they saw their own cavalry on the north bank, they wept and wailed, and they did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly sent these routs to the south bank of the Huai River by ferry.

"Our big camp is lost, big boss, you have to avenge your brothers..."

The leading rout was intermittent, and it took a long time to make it clear. He Yilong only felt a buzzing in his head, his body swayed, and it took a long time to stabilize his mind and ask, "You, you say it again, Daying, what is going on?" ”

It's okay not to ask, He Yilong asked, and the leader of the rout cried loudly, walked a few steps on his knees, came to He Yilong and hugged his legs. "I, I'm incompetent, the officers and soldiers attacked at night, the brothers were defeated, they were all killed, they were all scattered...... Right now, right now, only a few hundred people have fled here......"

He Yilong screamed, and suddenly felt five thunders hit the top. Although there were only 5,000 men and horses left in the camp, they were his most elite 5,000 veterans, thinking that with the natural barrier of muddy water, they would definitely be able to withstand any officers and soldiers, who would have thought that the whole army would be wiped out in a battle.

Hearing the sound of gold and iron rubbing suddenly, He Yilong suddenly pulled out the steel knife on his waist, and made a gesture to cut it down, and scolded in his mouth: "The brothers are gone, you, why don't you die..."

The steel knife drew a stiff arc in the air, after all, it fell to the ground weakly, and it was the old brother who was holding his legs and crying bitterly in front of him.

But the battalion was attacked, and the five thousand elite brothers couldn't come back after all, he quickly stabilized his mind, his main force was still there, as long as he could catch the traces of the officers and soldiers, it would be a big deal to fight with him, he didn't believe that his 20,000 people couldn't beat the 3,000 officers and soldiers?

At this time, he suddenly woke up and shouted, "Have the people who went to the mouth of the five rivers to test have returned?" ”

An hour later, someone finally reported: "There are only fifty big boats at the mouth of the five rivers, and the officers and soldiers are nowhere to be found......

Only then did He Yilong understand that he had been tricked by the official Li Xin again... It's too late to regret it... Then he suddenly realized a more serious problem, the large battalion on the south bank of the turbid water was completely wiped out, which means that the muddy water defense line of the fifth battalion of the left has been useless, and the officers and troops can drive straight into it under a smooth road, and the distance of 100 miles will come from morning to night, and the Changhuaiwei and Huaiyuan counties around Fengyang will face the officers and troops directly, and the five battalions of the left of the revolution stationed here are still unprepared and guarded against this. Wouldn't the entire Fifth Battalion of the Revolutionary Left have to face the embarrassing situation of being attacked on the back of the enemy?

This thought scared He Yilong out of a cold sweat, and he even forgot to feel sorry for his five thousand old brothers.

"Let's go, go back to the muddy water... Fight to the death with the officers and soldiers..."

At this moment, He Yilong has put away his thirty-six plans, and finally faced the problem in a down-to-earth manner, there are only 3,000 officers, soldiers and horses, and they all cover up the past with the advantage of numbers, and maybe they can also reverse the unfavorable situation.

Time is a qiē, He Yilong crossed the river with his own soldiers, and decided to personally take the cavalry first. After all, his main force was ambushed on the south bank of the Huai River, and more infantry could only be ferried to the north bank by a few ferries in turn, and 20,000 people were all ferryed across the river, and it would not be until tomorrow morning at the earliest, and he couldn't wait at all, so he had to take the first step.

However, He Yilong still had one more thought, he was afraid that the official army had already moved south for fear of missing it, and while he was widely scattered to scout rangers, he did not go north to the south bank of the muddy water, but marched northwest along the Huai River, and then at the confluence of the Feishui and the Huai River, he went upriver along the Feishui. Roughly south of Guzhen, he galloped north, and his heart was anxious along the way, but a heart that had been hanging gradually fell. Because, along the way, there was no sign of the crossing of the army and soldiers, so it was a blessing in misfortune.

Finally, after a night of rapid marching, the exhausted He Yilong finally arrived at the south bank of the muddy water with thousands of cavalry under his command. It's just that the numerical superiority of men and horses has been wiped out, and coupled with the worrying day and night rush, the cavalry have long been exhausted, so he has to rest in a dense forest twenty miles away from the camp on the south bank. Taking advantage of the rest, he sent scouts to determine the basic situation of his own battalion.

The south bank has all kinds of facilities such as the wall of the large camp, and if the official army occupies the camp, it will inevitably be used as a camp. Time has passed, but He Yilong feels like a year. Finally, the scout brought back the news.

"The camp on the south bank has been burned down by the officers and soldiers, and the officers and soldiers are nowhere to be found..."

This made He Yilong suddenly feel excited, he had been led by the nose by that Li Xin, but he was afraid that his response would already be in the other party's calculations. At this moment, he was completely out of ideas, and he didn't know what Li Xin's idea was. And where did Li Xin go at this time, as long as he thought about it a little, He Yilong had a headache.

In the midst of the confusion, He Yilong remembered the ships left in the camp again, and asked the scout with some expectation: "The ships of the camp, are the ships still there?" ”

The scout replied in great frustration: "There is a lot of charred wood on the shore, and I think our big ship has been burned clean by the officers and soldiers......

He Yilong had little hope that the hundreds of ships would survive, and the scout's words only confirmed it. What now? To go south, to rendezvous with the main force, or to stay here, for a while he hesitated unprecedentedly.

In the end, it was his subordinates who untied He Yilong's heart knot.

"The fact that the officers and soldiers were nowhere to be found, and that they burned the big ships but not the big camps, proved that they left in a hurry, and there must have been some unexpected incident that made them have to leave immediately. Therefore, let's be motionless and quiet, re-enter the camp and wait and see, how about the big leader? ”

The dog-headed military master under He Yilong shook his head and talked eloquently. In the past, He Yilong was arbitrary and did everything himself. This dog-headed military advisor has never had a chance to show his face, and now that he finally has a chance to show his face, how can he let it go?

He Yilong tilted his head and thought for a while, feeling that the words of the dog-headed military advisor were reasonable, so he gave an order.

"Return to the camp after dawn, and then march the whole army..."

After suffering a few big losses, He Yilong has become cautious, and he can't tell the situation when it's dark, wouldn't it be unjust if he was ambushed again... So, the group survived the night in the torment and the cold of early winter, until the day dawned, and then cautiously and cautiously tried all the way to the camp on the south bank.

Sure enough, the intact empty camp appeared in front of everyone, but there was a faint smell of scorching after the fire in the air, always reminding the thieves that this place had just undergone a baptism of fire. Suddenly, some of the thieves who were cleaning the wood on the shore suddenly vomited, and they found charred black stumps and severed arms in the ashes that had not yet been completely burned......

"Slow down, send a few people in to test it first, don't have any more fire and thunder that explode out of thin air..."

He Yilong suddenly remembered the tragedy of the night attack on the camp of the foreign officers and soldiers in Guzhen, and after some cleanup, it was confirmed that there was no danger in the camp, and the thieves swarmed in. The main force of the infantry also returned to the large camp on the south bank one after another within a day. Sitting in the tent of the Chinese army, He Yilong had the illusion of a dream, as if nothing had happened in the past few days, it was just an illusion when he dreamed.

After a few days, the scouts sent out did not find a shadow of half of the officers and soldiers within a radius of thirty miles, as if the officers and soldiers had never appeared along the muddy water. In the past few days, He Yilong regretted the wrong decisions made in the past few days, and felt that the best choice at the beginning was actually to stay put, and wait for work, in fact, it was the officials and the army who were in a hurry, only he was smart like a fool, but he fell into the hands of the officials and the army.

It seems to be normal, but He Yilong is always uncertain, always feeling that something is wrong, but he can't think of what is wrong. As for Li Xin's official army, it was as if they had disappeared out of thin air, so much so that the scouts he sent out along the muddy water all the way to the mouth of the five rivers and then to the southeast found nothing.

"Maybe something happened in the north of the Ming Dynasty?"

After finding no trace of the official army, especially that Li Xin, He Yilong comforted himself...
