Kebineng happily rode westward with 100,000 wolves, and received news halfway that Yuan Shao had not sent his cavalry, Kebineng's heart couldn't help but beat a drum, and he hurriedly ordered the army to suspend its advance.

A large group of leaders and generals gathered at the side of the road to discuss whether to continue the attack, and the two factions were at a disagreement, and Kobi could hesitate.

At this moment, a forward sentry suddenly rushed over, rolled off the saddle, and said urgently: "King, Lu Bu's 50,000 horsemen are coming towards us!" ”

Everyone was taken aback, and Bu Dugen whispered in Kebineng's ear: "Lu Bu is extremely brave, and his subordinates are all tigers and wolves!" Although our army has the advantage in numbers, I am afraid that it will be difficult to win! Don't forget what happened to the Huns! ”

Kebineng was shocked, and hurriedly ordered: "Pass the order, the rear team will be in the front, and retreat immediately!" ”

The 100,000 Xianbei wolf riders hurriedly turned their horses' heads, and the scene was chaotic, and then the 100,000 wolf riders raised the sky and galloped away along the road from which they came.

Zhang Lang led 50,000 horsemen to the edge of the highlands, looking at the undulating hilly areas ahead, the sun was setting, and the earth was covered with a golden coat. According to the intelligence, the Xianbei cavalry should have arrived here at this moment, but there was no one, and Zhang Lang couldn't help frowning.

The scout galloped over, reined in his horse, and clenched his fists on horseback: "General Qiqi, the Xianbei people have retreated!" ”

Zhang Lang was a little surprised, "Explore again!" The scout answered, turned his horse's head, and ran down the heights.

Zhang Lang had no intention of retreating, he was worried that there would be pursuers, so he decided to wait here for a while. Fifty thousand horsemen lined up on the high ground, except for the occasional neighing of the war horses, there was no noise, and the fifty thousand people were like fifty thousand statues, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the resolute faces, which made people's hearts tremble.

An hour later, the sky was completely dark, and the scouts reported that the Xianbei people had indeed retreated, and Yuan Shao's main army was advancing westward without delay, and there was no sign of sending cavalry.

Zhang Lang was relieved and withdrew with 50,000 protrusions, but Zhang Lang's retreat was not very fast, because he had to accumulate horsepower to deal with possible pursuers at any time.

The next morning, 50,000 horsemen entered Tongguan.

Jia Xu and the others picked up Zhang Lang and a few people at the gate of the Tongguan Governance Office and walked towards the hall together.

Jia Xu asked as he walked, "The general didn't engage the enemy?" ”

Zhang Lang shook his head, "Before I arrived, they retreated by themselves!" ”

Jia Xu pondered: "It must be that the Xianbei people heard that Yuan Shao's cavalry did not appear, and they were afraid of the general, so they hurriedly retreated!" That's fine! ”

A group of people walked into the hall quickly, Zhang Lang walked directly to the top, turned around, and the other people lined up left and right.

Zhang Lang asked Jia Xu: "How is the direction of Pubandu?" ”

"Returning to the general, because the military situation is like fire, his subordinates took the initiative to send General Zhang Liao to lead 40,000 cavalry to reinforcements, and ask the general to punish the crime!"

Zhang Lang waved his hand, "I said that you would be in charge when I was away, and you did not overstep your authority!" ”

"Thank you, General."

Zhang Lang thought for a while, "We have to make it clear who is the main general and who is the deputy general." Immediately pass on my order, Zhang Liao is fully responsible for the defense in the direction of Pubandu, and Zang Ba is the deputy! Then the herald who was in the hall took the order and left.

Zhang Lang sat down and thought, "Yuan Shao will either force the Tongguan Pass next, or go north to force the Puban!" No matter what he does, we can take it in stride! ”

Jia Xu reminded: "Yuan Shao's army is huge, if you make up your mind to attack a little, the threat is still very big, and you can't be careless." After a pause, "It's best to be able to attack the enemy's flanks and rear with surprise attacks while resisting the enemy head-on." ”

Zhang Lang nodded and looked at Jia Xu, "I'll take 20,000 sudden horsemen to Wuguan, and the driver will attack from Wuguan and attack its flank, Wen He will be responsible for everything in Tongguan!" "No."

Zhang Lang thought for a while, "There has to be a role in overseeing the overall situation. Looking at Jia Xu and laughing: "This role is none other than Wen He!" Including army mobilization, grain and grass preparation and other war-related matters, you have all the strength to deal with it, you don't have to know it in advance! ”

Jia Xu was moved in his heart, and hugged his fists and said: "My subordinates should not let go!" ”

Zhang Lang nodded, called a herald, and ordered him to communicate his decision to the whole army and local government offices.

After arranging this, the meeting was dismissed. Zhang Lang came to the backyard and rested. After waking up at noon and eating lunch, he put on his clothes neatly and left the command post with Fang Tian's halberd.

A moment later, Zhang Lang led 20,000 cavalry to leave Tongguan from the west gate of Tongguan and headed for Wuguan.

After Yuan Shao's main army and his troops turned around, they set up camp in the hilly area more than ten miles east of Tongguan.

In the big tent, Fu Zhu angrily reprimanded Xu You for misleading the master, and Xu Yu accused Fu Yu of acting without obeying orders.

Yuan Shao was depressed by the two of him. "That's it! Shut up! Yuan Shao finally broke out. The two stopped arguing, but they still glared at each other.

Yuan Shao looked at the two of them, "What the two gentlemen said makes sense, so don't argue anymore!" Let's talk about the next strategy.

Xu You hugged his fists and said: "Lord, now we should divide our troops into two ways and storm Tongguan and Pubandu at the same time!" Lu Bu has few soldiers, and the guards must not be able to take care of each other! ”

Yuan Shaoshen nodded thoughtfully, but when he saw Fu Zhi shaking his head and smiling bitterly, he was unhappy in his heart, and asked, "Fu Zhu, do you have something to say?" ”

Fu Zhu hesitated for a moment, then clenched his fists and said: "Lord, the Yellow River, Tongguan, Gu is a heavenly moat, although our army has far more troops than Lu Bu, but it is not easy to break through these two defense lines!" If our army could encircle Lu Bu's main force to death at Hangu Pass, the following things would be easier to do, but Lu Bu was much wiser and more decisive than he imagined! ”

Yuan Shao was unhappy when he heard this. Xu You, who is good at observing words and feelings, saw it, and immediately accused Fu Zhu, "Fu Zhu, you are trying to destroy your own prestige!" Could it be that in your eyes, the lord is not as good as Lu Bu? Lu Bu lost Hangu Pass, he was in a hurry like a lost dog, and the lord led a large army to come, but it was not as good as Lu Bu? ”

Yuan Shao's expression was even more unhappy. However, he was not good at observing words and feelings, and even said: "How is Lu Bu a lost dog!" He clearly took the initiative to retreat! The army under his command is almost unharmed, and it is even more difficult for our army to attack according to the natural danger of the Yellow River and the key to Tongguan! ”

"Enough!" Yuan Shao suddenly roared angrily, and he suddenly realized that his words had offended Yuan Shao, and quickly explained: "The lord is angry, his subordinates are just talking about things, and they have no other meaning!" ”

Xu You sneered: "Is there anything else, only you know it in your own heart!" ”

I was so angry that I couldn't wait to give Xu You a punch.

Yuan Shao said: "I have made up my mind, and I will immediately divide my troops into two ways to attack with all my might!" ”
