Hearing this, Hua An nodded, and said loudly: "The fangs are making trouble near Fucheng, which is enough to show that their lair should be nearby, which general is willing to lead the army to suppress the thieves!" ”

"Big brother, my cavalry is the fastest, let me go." Thunderstorm first asks for help.

"Big brother, I'm going too, my department has 8,000 people, and I can help the thunderstorm." Iron Bull also asked to go to war.

"General, the last general will return to the Great Jin, and before he has made an inch, let the last general go!" A general in Zitong County shouted for his life.

Seeing that almost all the generals asked to go to suppress the thieves, Hua Anxin was very happy, which is enough to show that on the issue of fighting against the fangs, the Northern Expeditionary Army and the Shu army, which had just surrendered, were comrades in the trenches.

And using this confrontation against the fangs, you can unite the Shu soldiers who have just surrendered, and make the relationship between the Shu army and the Northern Expeditionary Army more harmonious.

For this reason, Hua'an not only had to send the Northern Expeditionary Army under his command, but also gave the Shu army that had just surrendered a chance to make meritorious contributions.

Hua An looked at the generals and said loudly: "The fangs are brutal, feed on people, and now they are trying to attack Fucheng, so bold, how can you let it go, thunderstorm, you lead the cavalry first, the generals in Shu, you lead the men and horses to march later, you must exterminate this group of cannibals, so that the people in Shu can live a stable life." ”

"The last will obey." All the generals received the order and immediately went to gather their troops.

At this time, Hua'an sent 5,000 cavalry of Thunderstorm and 4,000 men and horses of the Shu army, with a total strength of 9,000. With such a huge force, it is naturally not comparable to the fangs who drink blood, as long as they can find the nests of the fangs around Fucheng, it should be easy to exterminate the local fangs.

The army of 9,000 troops, with cavalry in front and infantry behind, under the leadership of their respective generals, galloped out in the direction of Fucheng at the fastest speed, preparing to launch a deadly attack on the bloodthirsty fangs.

"Big brother, the thunderstorm has gone to kill the fangs, leaving me alone. It's boring. "Iron Bull saw that he had no chance of fighting. He complained.

Hua An smiled, looked at Tie Niu, and said loudly: "As long as there is no fight, you have an opinion." Look at Zhao Wu. Left behind in Nanzheng. There is no complaint, just you have a lot to do. ”

When Tie Niu heard this, he lowered his head in mockery. No more talking.

Wang San on the side saw it, patted Tie Niu's shoulder, and said softly: "Tie Niu, the eldest brother let you stay, naturally there is a reason for the eldest brother, now, the fangs are wandering around, if you are also sent out, in case the fangs attack our army's baggage, who will come to the rescue."

"There are 3,000 men and horses in our army's logistics baggage, do the fangs have such great courage?" Tie Niu obviously felt that Wang San's explanation was a bit far-fetched.

Hua An glanced at Wang San and said softly: "Wang San, you don't pay attention to him, as soon as the baggage and horses arrive, the army will immediately start and march towards Fucheng." ”

"Yes, big brother." Wang San opened his mouth and answered.

At this moment, from the direction ......of Zitong City, several soldiers from the baggage battalion rushed in.

Seeing these horsemen and horses in a hurry, Hua An'an was slightly surprised, and hurriedly greeted him.

The soldiers of the baggage battalion, seeing Hua'an, hurriedly turned over and dismounted, hugged their fists and said: "General, the logistics of our army has been intercepted and killed, and thousands of cattle and sheep have been robbed. ”

"What, the baggage battalion was intercepted and killed, who did it?" Hua An'an was shocked and hurriedly asked.

"General Hui, those people are all split, and they don't look like people in Shu, but like savages." The soldiers of the baggage battalion replied truthfully.

"Savages, they must be fangs, these fangs are really rampant enough, they dare to intercept the baggage of the general, and they are impatient." Hua Anxin couldn't help but be furious.

As soon as Tie Niu heard that the fangs had intercepted the baggage of the army, he hurriedly asked for orders: "Big brother, let me go, my 8,000 men and horses will definitely be able to completely defeat the fangs and take back the robbed cattle and sheep." ”

Hua An nodded and said, "Then what are you still doing in a daze, and you don't set off with the army." ”

"Yes, big brother." Tie Niu received the order, immediately turned around, and led his 8,000 men and horses to march in the direction he came.

At this time, except for Li Guang and other generals of the Shu army who surrendered and a small number of personal soldiers, only Hua'an and his pro-military battalion of 1,000 cavalry remained in place, and the main army had all been dispatched.

"General Hua, since the fangs intercepted and killed the baggage, why don't we also go and kill the thieves!" Li Guang looked at Hua'an and said.

Hua An nodded and said, "Well, what King Han said is right, let's set off immediately to recapture the cattle and sheep that were robbed by the fangs." ”

Immediately, Hua An led a cadre of generals and a thousand cavalry from his own battalion to march in the direction he came.

About half an hour later, in a valley, Hua An found some of the men and horses of the baggage camp, and a large number of baggage carts, all of which seemed to be intact, but most of the cattle and sheep were missing, which made Hua An's heart very unhappy.

"General, General." Seeing that Hua An led the main force back, all the soldiers of the baggage battalion surrounded him.

Looking at the injured bodies of some soldiers, Hua An felt a little guilty, the baggage battalion was intercepted and killed, and he had an unshirkable responsibility.

If Hua'an was fully prepared and sent part of the main force to march with the baggage battalion, such a thing would not have happened, and the reason why Hua'an would be so careless was because the march was too smooth, and the Shu army surrendered one after another along the way, which made Hua'an have a heart of underestimating the enemy, and felt that there would not be any force with the strength to attack the baggage battalion, and you must know that the baggage battalion is also combative.

Obviously, Hua An did not expect the mysterious force of the fangs, and even the soldiers of the Shu army, who were born and raised, did not know much about the fangs, only knew that this was a group of wild people without humanity.

"Where's your main force? Also, after the fangs robbed the cattle and sheep, they went in which direction. Hua An looked at the soldiers of the baggage battalion in front of him and asked.

A baggage battalion was right, pointing to the direction of the dense forest on the left, and replied: "General, after the fangs robbed the cattle and sheep, they ran in the direction of the dense forest, and the battalion master led two thousand men and horses to follow all the way, and I don't know what happened." ”

"Tailgating, so this group of fangs is very strong in combat, how many centaurs do they have?" Hua An sighed with emotion and asked.

"General Hui, the strength of the fangs is about three thousand, which is comparable to our army, but it is extremely strong, especially the arm strength is very large, walking in the dense forest, faster than an ape, and the strength cannot be underestimated!" A soldier of the baggage battalion replied truthfully.

Hearing this, Hua An nodded, and said softly: "There are only 3,000 people in Fangren, so they dare to rob our army's baggage, and their courage is really not small!" is so arrogant, how can the general let it go, Tie Niu, now give you a chance to make meritorious contributions, you immediately lead the 8,000 men and horses of your department to search in the direction of the dense forest, and be sure to completely annihilate this fang. ”

"Don't worry, big brother, I'll leave it to me." Tie Niu took the order and led the army in the direction of the dense forest.

After Tie Niu left, Hua An was always a little uneasy, so he left most of the men and horses in the pro-military camp, led Wang San and a hundred pro-soldiers, and rode horses into the dense forest, and soon joined the main force of Tie Niu, and then marched together.

In the depths of the dense forest, the fangs drove the stolen cattle and sheep back to the small valley where they lived, and on the halfway of this small valley, thousands of tents were set up, and the exit of the valley was the only one, that is, only these fangs guarded the entrance of the valley, and the stolen cattle and sheep could not escape, and at the same time, foreign invaders could not enter the valley.

It was a natural fortified fortress, surrounded by mountains, and the only entrance was hidden behind a large dense forest, and it would have been difficult for outsiders to find out that it was inhabited if these fangs hadn't taken the initiative to go out and make trouble.

The 2,000 men and horses of the baggage battalion, which had followed the dung of the cattle and sheep all the way, stopped not far from the outer side of the valley where the fangs lived, and they knew that their strength was limited and could not deal with the thousands of fierce and savage fangs, so they discussed countermeasures in the same place.

Some people built yì to line up to attack, some built yì to report to the main general Hua'an and let Hua'an make a decision, and some built yì to use the grass and trees here to launch a fire attack.

After some deliberation, the main generals of the baggage battalion did not come up with a final opinion.

"Battalion master, the general is here, the general is here." Just when the generals of the baggage battalion were discussing how to recapture the cattle and sheep, Hua An led the main force to the vicinity of the valley.

"Generals, they are all incompetent, so this group of savages has a chance." The owner of the baggage battalion blamed himself when he saw Hua'an.

Hua An looked at the baggage battalion in front of him, and saw that the two thousand men and horses were here, so he relieved himself, he looked at the owner of the baggage battalion, and said softly: "The attack on the baggage camp is mainly the responsibility of the general, don't blame you, what's wrong, has the fangman's lair been found?" ”

Seeing that Hua An did not blame himself, the owner of the baggage battalion breathed a sigh of relief, he got up and pointed to the depths of the dense forest, and reported: "General Hui, the lair of the fangs is not far ahead, there is a small valley, there is only one entrance, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack!" ”

Hua An nodded and said, "Wang San, Tie Niu, follow me to have a look." As he spoke, he walked towards the dense forest in front of him, followed closely by Wang San and Tie Niu.

After walking a distance of hundreds of steps, Hua An saw the valley in front of him, which was a large valley with thousands of tents and herds of cattle and sheep, and those cattle and sheep were the cattle and sheep that his army had been robbed.

"Big brother, the terrain here is easy to defend and difficult to attack, as long as the fangs guard the gate at the entrance, it will be difficult for us to attack it!" Tie Niu pointed to the dozens of fangs who were standing guard at the mouth of the valley in the distance, and said.

Hua An raised his eyes and looked carefully, and found that the fangs had built a tall walled gate at the entrance of the valley, and under the walled gate stood many fangren warriors with spears, and above the walled gate, there were also many archers with bows and arrows on their backs, and it seemed that they were well guarded.

These fangs who drank blood were able to set up such strict defenses, which greatly surprised Hua An's expectations, and made Hua An feel a little incredible. (To be continued......)
