Under Zhang Hao's orders, his generals immediately began to retreat backwards and disengaged from the Yan cavalry.

Seeing Zhang Hao leading the army to retreat, Murong Ba was surprised at first, but after thinking about it carefully, the strength of the soldiers and horses under his command was stronger, and the main army in the rear was not far away, Zhang Hao felt frightened, and led the army under his command to retreat, which was a natural thing.

"General, the enemy army has been defeated and retreated, whether our army is pursuing." A subordinate general looked at Murong Ba and asked loudly.

Murong Ba looked at the retreating Zhang Oyster Army, thought for a moment, and said, "No need, the enemy army has been repulsed by our army, and our army can capture Weichang City immediately." ”

Obviously, after a fight, Murong Ba knew that the strength of his soldiers and horses was not much stronger than Zhang Oyster, if he pursued rashly, once this was Zhang Oyster's plan to lure the enemy, he and his soldiers and horses would be in trouble, besides, after Zhang Oyster and his army retreated, Wei Changcheng was vacant, and he immediately captured Wei Changcheng, which was also a great achievement, as for the retreating Zhang Oyster army, there was a chance to clean up in the future.

Under the personal command of Murong Ba, the cavalry under his command immediately launched an attack on Weichang City, but at this time, there were no soldiers and horses to defend Weichang City, so Murong Ba and his soldiers and horses captured Weichang City very smoothly, and opened the city gate, waiting for the arrival of Murong Ke's main army.

A few hours later, Murong Ke and his main army arrived at Weichang City and set up camp in a large open space outside the city.

As soon as Murong Ke arrived in Weichang City, Murong Ba made a careful report to Murong Ke about his battle with Zhang Oyster Legion, and said that the combat strength of Zhang Oyster Legion was not weak, and it was comparable to the light cavalry combat power of the Great Yan Kingdom.

After listening to Murong Ba's report, Murong Ke's basic situation on Zhang Oyster's army. With a more in-depth understanding, this is basically the same as what he guessed before, that is to say, the combat effectiveness of the cavalry under Xie Ai is almost the same as that of the Yan cavalry, and in this way, who has more soldiers and horses. Whoever is more dominant.

At this time, Murong Ke was full of confidence in defeating Xie Ai's army, and thought that it would not be long before he could completely defeat Xie Ai's army and occupy the entire Hebei.

Due to the relatively large size of the army, if you act together, it is easy to slow down the speed of the army's march, so for this reason, Murong Ke boldly put the main army of 100,000 at the end. He led 150,000 cavalry to advance in the direction of Yecheng, so that the speed of the army's advance was bound to increase greatly.

The army of Yan in the direction of Hebei can be said to be making rapid progress, and in the direction of Yanzhou, Yao Xiang and the main army under his command have also begun to sharpen their knives.

In order to find out what kind of medicine was sold in Wang Wu's gourd, Yao Xiang sent a large number of scouts to various places in Yanzhou to carefully investigate. But he still expressed his incomprehension of Wang Wu's actions, of course. This is because the scouts he sent out never found the 30,000 elite soldiers under Hua An'an, and without these 30,000 elite soldiers as a reference, he naturally couldn't figure it out.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Yao Xiang frowned deeply, at this time. It was already very close to the time of Wang Wu's appointment, but he still had some doubts.

"Fifth brother, the time for the war is approaching, does our army need to prepare for war immediately?" Yao Chang asked softly.

Yao Xiang thought for a moment and looked at Yao Chang. Zhengse said: "The army under Wang Wu is not the opponent of our army, but now, he has taken the initiative to make an appointment to fight our army, there seems to be something strange in this!" ”

"Fifth brother, maybe Wang Wu is too confident, he thinks that the 80,000 horses under his command can match the 80,000 horses of our army." Yao Chang guessed softly.

When Yao Xiang heard this, he thought for a moment, and said: "It's not that this is possible, if that's the case, then it's good, I'm afraid, Wang Wu has another conspiracy!" ”

"Report, general, after the enemy's 40,000 horses crossed the water, there was no sign of returning, but kept marching in the direction of Qingzhou, it seems that there is an intention to raid Qingzhou!" At this moment, a general came to report.

When Yao Xiang heard this, he slapped his head and said loudly: "Could it be that Wang Wu gave our army a trick to secretly Chen Cang, ostensibly making an appointment with the main force of our army and dragging the main force of our army here, but he sent 40,000 elites all the way to the east to raid my Qingzhou lair, so wouldn't Qingzhou be dangerous." After saying that, I was greatly surprised.

Obviously, Yao Xiang's mood at the moment is very nervous, because he is pouring out of the nest this time, only 20,000 recruits who are being trained are deployed in the direction of Qingzhou, and the combat effectiveness is not very strong at all, if the 40,000 elites under Wang Wu attack Qingzhou, with the existing 20,000 recruits in Qingzhou, the possibility of victory is very small.

"Yes! Fifth brother, when Wang Wu made an appointment to fight our army, he deliberately delayed the time for two whole days, so that the 40,000 elites under his command could enter Qingzhou calmly? At this moment, if our army launches a pursuit, it will be too late, and besides, as long as our army retreats in the direction of Qingzhou, the main army under Wang Wu will definitely attack our army, so that our army will not be able to effectively reinforce and withdraw into Qingzhou. Yao Chang said loudly.

Yao Xiang said angrily: "This Wang Wu has actually learned to deceive, we always thought that he was going to divide his troops to attack our army, but I didn't expect that he would divide his troops to attack my Qingzhou base camp, which is really unreasonable." ”

"Fifth brother, the matter has come to this, what should we do now? Need to fight? Yao Chang asked loudly.

Yao Xiang Zhengse said: "We don't have to worry about the direction of Qingzhou for the time being, since Wang Wu wants to sneak attack Qingzhou, then, our army will defeat Wang Wu's army and take the entire Yanzhou, as long as Yanzhou is taken by our army, Qingzhou will still be ours sooner or later." ”

"Fifth brother is right, as long as our army defeats the Wang Wu Army, Yanzhou will be our army's." Yao Chang said excitedly.

Yao Xiang looked at his subordinate generals, and said: "The order is given, the whole army immediately prepares for battle, and prepares to meet the army under Wang Wu's command. ”

"Yes, General." The ministers will lead with a loud voice.

Soon, the 80,000-strong army under Yao Xiang began to assemble, and left Fanghe City and marched to the position of the battle.

At the same time, Wang Wu and his 80,000 troops were also heading to the position of the battle, and they were one step ahead of Yao Xiang's army.

In order to prevent the other side from cheating, both sides have sent a large number of scouts to the location of the battle to conduct careful reconnaissance to prevent ambushes from ambushes, but within a radius of more than ten miles of the battle site, there is no position that can hide the army, and the location of the battle is very flat, which is very suitable for the mobile operation of the cavalry corps.

In such a decisive battle, it is natural that the army under Yao Xiang is more dominant, but the 30,000 elites led by Hua An are hidden in a secret position twenty miles away, and according to the fastest speed of the cavalry, they can reach the battlefield within half an hour and launch a surprise attack on the army under Yao Xiang, so that the victory naturally belongs to Hua An.

Soon, Wang Wu and his 80,000 troops arrived at the battlefield and set up an offensive formation, but at this time, Yao Xiang and his main army had not yet arrived.

"General, why hasn't Yao Xiang's army come yet, is he scared and doesn't dare to come." A subordinate general looked at Wang Wu and asked softly.

Wang Wu waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, the strength of the army under Yao Xiang is not weaker than our army, and he will definitely lead the army to fight." ”

Obviously, Wang Wu still knows Yao Xiang quite well, and believes that with Yao Xiang's conceit, he will not be afraid to fight, besides, without knowing about Hua'an's ambush, Yao Xiang will definitely feel that he has a great chance of winning, why not come to the decisive battle?

"General, look, the enemy is coming." A subordinate general spotted Yao Xiang's army approaching and immediately reported it to Hua'an.

Wang Wu looked up and saw that Yao Xiang had indeed led his army to meet the battle, which made his hanging heart suddenly settle down.

"Yao Xiang is finally here, it's really good, pass the order, let the soldiers prepare for battle, this battle, we must play the prestige of our army." Wang Wu ordered loudly.

"Yes, General." The generals will receive the order loudly and immediately convey Wang Wu's order.

Soon, the soldiers under Wang Wu's command began to make final preparations before the battle, and they only needed Wang Wu's order to launch an attack on the Yao Xiang army.

As soon as Yao Xiang's army arrived at the battlefield, he saw the Wang Wu army that was ready, which made Yao Xiang quite surprised, he didn't understand where Wang Wu's confidence came from, and he actually dared to fight a decisive battle with the main army under his command in a flat area, which obviously had little chance of winning.

"General, the enemy army is ready for battle, and it seems that it will soon attack our army." A subordinate general looked at Yao Xiang and reminded softly.

Yao Xiang nodded, and said, "Okay, it's good to attack!" The general wanted to see how much strength the army under Wang Wu had, and passed the order to all the soldiers to prepare for battle, and in this battle, our army must inflict heavy losses on the enemy. ”

"Yes, General." The generals will give orders with a loud voice and immediately begin preparations for battle.

Soon, the 80,000-strong army under Yao Xiang was completely ready, and was ready to fight to the death with Wang Wu's army.

Seeing that the army under Yao Xiang had just arrived at the battlefield, he had quickly lined up the formation to meet the battle, Wang Wu looked up into the distance, he was more or less worried, he was afraid that the 30,000 elite soldiers under Hua An could not appear in time, if the 30,000 elite soldiers could not appear in time, he and the 80,000 main army under his command were very likely to be defeated by the army under Yao Xiang, after all, the cavalry of the army under Yao Xiang was more, and the infantry under his command accounted for at least more than half.

"General, the enemy army has lined up in formation, whether our army will attack or not." A subordinate general looked at Wang Wu and asked loudly.

Wang Wu nodded, and Zhengse ordered: "Pass the order, and the whole army will attack immediately." (To be continued......)
