The rain was pouring down, and in a depression, the ground was full of people, and more than 4,000 soldiers wearing two-gear armor were all squatting in the mud to rest.

Several scout-driven horses passed by, splashing muddy water all over the soldiers' faces, but these soldiers did not react, and everyone hurried up their time, nibbling on raw corn and noodles.

When the scout came, a man with rough hands and feet, a face like a black date, and an arrow sore on his forehead, knelt down in the mud with a puff, and said: "My lord, the defenders in the county town have been lured out by us, and General Zhang is running here with hundreds of brothers." ”

The man nodded and said, "How are the officers and soldiers?" ”

"There are 600 armored cavalry, and 1,000 unarmored soldiers, all of whom were originally stationed in the county seat."

Heavy cavalry? The man was covered in mud and lay on the ground, listened for a while, stood up, and said, "Well, it seems that it is very close." ”

"County soldiers, but a rabble!" The man sneered and said, "This is simply meat delivered to the door, if you don't eat it for nothing, you won't eat it, this Luo Yi sent me a good dish." Armor, war horses, I want to open the way! ”

Gao Kaidao lowered his head and said, "Have the officers and soldiers found any clues?" ”

"No, General Zhang is working very hard, and his subordinates have lost more than half."

A sneer appeared on Gao Kaidao's face, and he said, "Very good." Tell the order to go to the whole army for war! ”

At the command, the four thousand soldiers wiped the raindrops from their faces, got up from the mud together, and looked to the south together.

Boom, thunder rolling, heavy rain fell, and at this time, a few miles away, the armored cavalry of the officers and soldiers of the county first fell into the mud of the grass, and were pursuing the rogue who had been defeated all the way.

The sound of thunder and rain muffled the movement of the two armies.

Waiting for the official army in the distance, in addition to the 4,000 soldiers of Gao Kaidao, there are also 2,000 wolf riders trained by the Turks, and 20 miles away, there are more than 100,000 people who have been coerced from Anle County, and they are cannon fodder for a while to attack the county seat of Changping.

In Huaihuang Town, Li Hu, Wen Yanbo, Su Su, Ying Hefu, Etuo, Tan Zong, Ji Chuan, Wang Mahan and other generals gathered in it.

Outside the foyer, it was pouring rain.

"Report!"

A soldier came in a rain curtain, and in the lobby, he said to Li Huyan: "Two days ago, Gao Kaidao led the army to lure the county soldiers of Changping County in the wilderness successfully, and the deputy lieutenant and the county lieutenant were all killed in battle. After the city was broken, Gao Kaidao beheaded the county orders and officials in the city, coerced more than 10,000 people in the city, and returned to Anle County. ”

The generals were shocked when they heard this, this Yang Yichen had only sent troops for less than three days, and Gao Kaidao actually dared to take advantage of the unmanned opportunity of Zhuo County to capture one of the nine counties of Zhuo County. No

Ji Chuan said: "This Gao Kaidao is very capable, the number of county soldiers and newly recruited township soldiers in Changping is no less than three thousand, and it is actually the end of the battle." ”

Wang Mahan sneered and said: "It's just a county soldier, not Xue Shixiong's government soldier, in my eyes, the county soldiers of Zhuo County are just decorations." ”

Wang Mahan's words were obtained, and many generals present supported him. In the Great Sui military system, the government soldiers were regarded as semi-standing troops who were half-ploughing and half-fighting, and served for life until they were sixty years old, and sometimes had to go to the army to defend Beijing, while the county soldiers were recruited from the civilian households for one or two years, and served in the county, which could only be regarded as civilian servants serving in the military.

As for the township soldiers, most of them are local clans, or large families are the backbone, such as Yang Jian was a big family in Guanzhong back then, and the Yang family alone raised thousands of clan soldiers.

In fact, Li Chongjiu's army is similar, such as Ying Hefu, Etuo's fan cavalry, also wartime soldiers, peacetime for the people, but the fan soldiers and cavalry have been skilled in bows and horses since childhood, and they can become soldiers with a little practice.

As for Li Chongjiu's command, such as Shanggu, the nearly 10,000 Han troops in Yanmen also use soldiers in peacetime, training troops while farming, similar to the tun army, otherwise with Li Chongjiu's economy now, or the economy of this era, it is very difficult to raise a standing army.

"Now among the county soldiers, except for Wang Suba, where they see the righteous army, they don't flee as soon as they see the wind."

"The forces of Gao Kaidao, we all know that they can fight."

"The Zhuojun soldiers are brave, but the ones who defeated the Zhuojun soldiers in Gao Kaidao are also the sharp pawns of the Northland."

"Thieves like Gao Kaidao have all taken down a county, so it can be seen that the power of the county soldiers of Zhuo County is nothing more than that."

The generals said one after another.

"If Xue Shixiong doesn't return to Zhuo County, Zhuo County, with the strength of our army, can fight down, and no matter how bad it is, half of the county can be wiped out within three months." Wang Mahan said confidently.

Wen Yanbo said: "Field warfare is different from siege, if it is an attack on one city by one, then even if Zhuojun is defeated, most of it will be wasted." Changping is just a small city, and Gao Kaidao's luck does not mean that Jicheng will be so easy. ”

Ying Hefu said: "I think what General Wang said is reasonable, as soldiers, we only need to consider whether we can fight or not, and if it is a matter after the war, it is not in our concern." ”

Ying Hefu's words were unanimously supported by the generals of the Fan Army, such as Etuo and Yan Yelie, for the Hu people, the last time they conquered Shanggu County with Li Chongjiu, they were very profitable, and all the tribes had a good year. The second attack on Liaoxi, the few tribes that did not go out on the expedition, were all red-eyed, Yinghefu and their harvest.

And this time in the autumn, it is the autumn is crisp, fat and strong, at this time to send troops, the war horse loses a little fat nothing, it is not easy to die, but the grassland tribe has always gone south to copy the season, if you miss this opportunity, it is a pity, so Ying Hefu, Eto vigorously drum and fight, hoping that Li Hu can agree to send troops.

The meaning of Wang Mahan and other Han army generals is that they hope to capture Jixian County and take Li Chongjiu out, and at the same time, they also have the meaning of coveting the prosperity of Zhuo County. You must know that after the war, there are less than 20,000 households left in Shanggu County, and Liaoxi and Liaodong are equivalent to wasteland, and only Zhuo County can be called the county town of Shangbeidi.

Among the people, only Wen Yanbo was vigorously opposed, so Li Hu has been unable to make a decision. At this time, Lin Dangfeng also sent a letter from Li Chongjiu, saying that the major events in the army were decided by Li Hu, Su Su, and Wen Yanbo, and the generals of course encouraged Li Hu to send troops.

In Jixian County, Li Chongjiu has stayed in Qu Yanran's building every day in the past few days, chatting with Qu Yanran every day, saying a few jokes with Chunxi Holly, and Lin Dangfeng's daily news from various places has changed, except for the incident of Gao Kaidao's capture of Changping a few days ago, which made him think deeply, the days are quite comfortable.

Li Chongjiu couldn't help but secretly say that Gentle Township is the words of the hero's mound.
