Hua An and his subordinate generals standing on the lookout on the south bank of Zhangshui were very happy to see that the main cavalry of the Yan State on the other side had collapsed, so that the defeat of the main force of the Yan army had become a sure thing.

"Your Majesty, the Moon Formation is really powerful, the main cavalry of the Yan Army has been dispersed, why don't our army immediately launch a pursuit, so as to expand the results of the battle." Wang San said excitedly.

Hua An nodded and said loudly: "Pass the order, the charioteers and infantry on the north bank will cooperate with each other and immediately launch a pursuit of the scattered enemy, and the cavalry on the south bank will give priority to reinforcing the north bank." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." The general shouted his orders.

"Dong Dong Dong ......" in the Jin army camp on the south bank of Zhangshui, hundreds of big drums, at the same time sent out the sound of offensive war drums.

The soldiers of the Jin army on the other side of Zhangshui, seeing the sound of the drums of the attack, immediately relied on the chariot to form a pursuit army, and launched a fierce pursuit of the main cavalry of the Yan State that was scattered.

At the same time, the main cavalry of the Jin army on the south bank began to quickly cross the pontoon bridge to reinforce the army on the north bank.

On the north bank of Zhangshui, Murong Ping, the commander of the Yan army, fell into extreme fear and incomprehension, he did not expect that he personally led ten times the strength of the Jin army, but he failed to break through the Jin army's Qiyue formation, and the main army under his command fell into rout under the counterattack of the Jin army.

"General, the Jin army has launched a full-scale counterattack, the main force of our army is scattered, and it is unable to resist the attack of the Jin army, so immediately retreat to Lukou City, so as to organize a new defense line." Seeing that the Jin army's chariots and infantry launched a coordinated pursuit, a general loudly built a road.

Murong Ping sighed helplessly, and ordered loudly: "Retreat." The whole army immediately retreated and retreated to the city of Lukou. ”

Under Murong Ping's order, the scattered Yan cavalry immediately rode their horses and galloped towards Lukou City.

With the withdrawal of Murong Ping and the soldiers of the Yan army under his command, Pu Jian on the left flank was also unable to resist the attack of the Jin army, so he immediately followed behind Murong Ping's army and fled in the direction of Lukou City.

Seeing that the Yan army retreated on all fronts, the soldiers of the Jin army naturally launched a fierce attack. But the charioteers and infantry pursued in coordination. It was greatly affected by the speed of the infantry, so he only pursued for more than a mile and taught the main cavalry of the Yan State a lesson. The pursuit stopped. Subsequent reinforcements of cavalry were assembled in an open field on the north bank of Zhangshui. After forming a certain scale, they will pursue the main cavalry of the Yan State.

At this time, with the Jin army, the moon formation defeated the main cavalry of the Yan State. The soldiers and horses under the command of Hua'an can be regarded as having a firm foothold on the north bank of Zhangshui, and the immediate priority is to let all the main forces cross Zhangshui as much as possible, so as to break through Lukou City in one fell swoop with superior forces.

The soldiers of the Jin army relied on more than ten pontoon bridges to rush to the opposite bank at the fastest speed, but the width of each pontoon bridge was limited, the charioteers could only be lined up in a single row, the cavalry could be lined up in two rows at most, and the infantry could also be lined up in three rows.

To this end, Hua'an ordered the 50,000 horses of the reserve army to continue to build pontoon bridges, and at the same time, let the main force of soldiers and horses cross the pontoon bridges first, and the reserve corps and logistics materials were ultimatum, so that Hua'an and the 150,000 main army under his command crossed Zhangshui, and it only took half a day.

On the lookout on the south bank of Zhangshui, Hua An and his subordinates saw that the main army had crossed Zhangshui one after another, so they left the lookout and rode their horses across Zhangshui and entered the north bank of Zhangshui.

At dusk, the 70,000 main cavalry under the command of Hua'an all crossed the Zhangshui and assembled on the north bank of the Zhangshui, followed by the charioteers and the main infantry, and all of them could cross the Zhangshui before midnight.

At this time, on the north bank of Zhangshui, Hua'an had 70,000 main cavalry, 1,000 chariots, and 20,000 main infantry, totaling less than 100,000 main forces.

With such a strong force, Hua'an planned to immediately launch an attack on Lukou City due north, and seize the strategic town of Lukou City in one fell swoop before Murong Ke's main army reinforced Lukou City.

In order to prevent Murong Ke's main army from suddenly arriving in the direction of Lukou City, Hua'an sent multiple scouts to closely monitor the every move of Murong Ke's main army, and decided to immediately lead 70,000 cavalry to attack Lukou City, and control the water north of Lukou City, preventing Murong Ke's main cavalry from crossing the river to reinforce Lukou City.

"Your Majesty, the news of the defeat of the Yan army will definitely be sent to Murong Ke's Chinese army tent soon, I believe that Murong Ke has already pulled out the camp and rushed in the direction of Lukou City at this time, our army went to Lukou City, not only to guard against Murong Ke's army, but also to guard against Murong Ping and Pu Jian's men and horses in Lukou City, so that only with the 70,000 cavalry of our army, it seems to be very insufficient!" Wang San said worriedly.

Hua An nodded, and said softly: "Our army's strength is indeed a little insufficient, but our army has just experienced a big victory, and the morale of the soldiers is high, while the Yan army has just experienced a defeat, and the 130,000 army under the department has lost at least more than 10,000, and the most important thing is that the Yan army is already demoralized, and our army's 70,000 cavalry are heading to the direction of Lukou City, Murong Ping and Pu Jian must not dare to go out of the city to attack our army, besides, the follow-up troops of our army will continue to reinforce over, and there will not be too much pressure." ”

"Report, Your Majesty, Murong Ke's main army has pulled out of camp overnight and is rushing in the direction of Lukou City." At this moment, the scout reported the news that Murong Ke's main army was about to reinforce Lukou City.

When Hua An heard this, he immediately ordered: "The main cavalry immediately followed the king to attack Lukou City, and the charioteers and infantry cooperated with each other, and then reinforced and set off immediately." After speaking, he rode his horse and ran in the direction of Lukou City.

Under the order of Hua'an, the main cavalry of the 70,000 Jin army rushed to the direction of Lukou City at the fastest speed, and a thousand chariots covered the 20,000 main infantry, and then marched, and the follow-up men and horses were still crossing Zhangshui in a steady stream, ready to reinforce the direction of Lukou City at any time.

Outside the east gate of Lukou City, Pu Jian and his command of less than 50,000 horses, set up camp here, due to the limited area in the city, all more than 100,000 horses can not all enter Lukou City to station, for this reason, the Yan army commander Murong Ping let his command more than 70,000 troops enter the city to garrison, and let Pu Jian lead less than 50,000 horses, stationed outside the east gate of Lukou City, in order to form a corner with the army in the city.

Murong Ping's arrangement naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of Pu Jian and his subordinates, and after the army set up camp, Pu Jian's general Pu Xiong and others all showed angry looks.

"Third brother, Murong Ping, this kid is really too much, all the troops under their department are stationed in the city, but let our army be stationed outside the east gate, in case the main force of the Jin army comes, our army is less than 50,000 horses, how can we resist." Pu Xiong said angrily.

"Father, we sincerely surrendered to Yan Kingdom, but unexpectedly, we were treated like this, it is really unreasonable, it is better to do the opposite." Pu Jian's third son, Pu Sheng, shouted loudly.

Kamseng is Pu Jian's third son, and now, at the age of eighteen, he is extremely strong and extremely brave in battle, but this man is blind in one eye, his appearance is not handsome, and his personality is cruel and murderous.

Pu Jian looked at the generals and said softly: "Lukou City is only a few miles away, accommodating 70,000 troops is already crowded, if our army goes to the city, there is no place to stand, it is better to camp outside the east gate, which is also more spacious, as for the main force of the Jin army you are worried about, as long as Murong Ke's 100,000 reinforcements arrive, the Jin army will not have an advantage." ”

Although Pu Jian made an explanation, the generals under his command were still very unconvinced, after all, as long as they were not fools, they could see that Murong commented that he was favoring one over the other, and wanted to let the army under Pu Jian's command act as a pawn to resist the main force of the Jin army, so as to ensure the safety of his own army.

In fact, after suffering such treatment, Pu Jian's heart is also very uncomfortable, but since they decided to take refuge in Yan Guo and raided Yecheng, they have already torn their faces with the Jin army, at this time, they want to take refuge in the Jin army, it is also difficult to be accepted, if they betray Yan Guo in a negative spirit, they will offend Murong Jun again, in this way, he will face Murong Jun and Hua'an at the same time, two powerful enemies, and the situation will be even more critical than Ran Min back then, for this reason, despite suffering unfair treatment, they still have to obey the command of Yan Guo, So as to have a place to stand.

In the middle of the night, the 70,000 main cavalry under Hua'an had arrived near Lukou City and stopped outside the south gate of Lukou City.

Although the Jin army had already approached the city, the Yan army stationed in the city did not dare to go out of the city to meet the battle, and the Pu Jian army stationed outside the east gate of Lukou did not dare to rashly attack the main cavalry of the Jin army, but made every effort to build a camp and prepare to hold the camp.

The reason why the two sides of the Yan Kingdom are so timid is naturally because in the daytime battle, they were completely frightened by the Jin army's moon formation, after all, the Yan army attacked the Jin army's moon formation with ten times the force, but it was broken up by the Jin army, in this case, the psychological shock caused can be imagined.

"Your Majesty, Murong Ke's main army has arrived on the north bank of the water." At this moment, the scouts came with the news that Murong Ke's main army had arrived on the north bank of the water.

"Your Majesty, once Murong Ke's 100,000 main army crosses the water, it will be very disadvantageous to the officers and men of our army, and we must prevent Murong Ke from crossing the water." Deng Qiang said loudly.

Hua An nodded, and ordered loudly: "General Deng, you immediately lead 30,000 cavalry to the north gate of Lukou City, closely monitor the Murong Ke army on the north bank of the river, you must prevent the Murong Ke army from crossing the water, and you must guard against the Murong Army stationed in Lukou City from attacking from behind, remember." ”

"Rest assured, the king will definitely complete the task." Deng Qiang responded with a fist, then turned around and left, and led his 30,000 Guanzhong cavalry to the north of Lukou City. (To be continued......)
