After explaining the matter of the transfer of the Longxiang battalion to the ban, Lin Yuan began to prepare for the south.

"Why don't Liang make a bet with the lord, Liang leads the Huben battalion to attack Yingzhou from Suizhou to the south, and the lord leads the cavalry battalion south from Malan City to attack Jingmen, see who arrives at Jiangling City first?"

"Mr. Kong Ming has this Yaxing, and Lin should accompany him!" Lin Yuan was also aroused.

"However, sir, you have to be careful, Huang Zhong of Yingzhou is a tiger general, with one-handed archery skills, a hundred steps through Yang, and the ten thousand troops take the head of the enemy general, it is better to transfer General Yuwen to your command."

"No, you don't." Zhuge Liang was very confident, the feather fan shook lightly, and said with a smile: "Liang has Qimen Dunjia, even if that Huang Zhong has the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth, he must be captured alive." ”

"If Mr. Kong Ming captures Huang Zhong alive, then this battle should be a great achievement!"

"It's a deal!"

Three days later, Lin Yuan led the cavalry battalion and returned to Malan City.

The campaign does not start immediately, and it is necessary to wait for the fighters.

And on December 11, the fighter finally arrived.

Jingnan made Wang Qi personally lead 50,000 Shenwu troops and 300,000 sailors, marching in unison, advancing into Dongting Lake, and starting a big battle with the 400,000 troops supported by Yang Qi.

The rebel army under Yang Mi was defeated, losing tens of thousands of people and having to retreat a hundred miles.

Wang Yu continued to pursue, and the two sides crossed at Junshan and fell into a tug-of-war.

Yang Mi fell into the Battle of Dongting Lake and couldn't get out, and Lin Yuan was waiting for this opportunity.

The cavalry battalion set off directly from Malan City and galloped all the way south.

"Lord Yu, in front of you is Changlin Town."

After running 200 miles in one day, the army arrived at the first stronghold of Zhongxiang's rebels, Changlin Town.

Lin Yuan opened the map and found that there were two roads in Changlin Town.

Continue to the south, and finally reach Jingmen City, which is guarded by Wei Yan's 20,000 troops, and cannot continue south without capturing Jingmen City.

Go west, bypass Zhangshui, then arrive at the boundary of Dangyang, and then turn to the southeast, you can go straight to Jiangling City.

The second road is 500 miles farther than the first, but it can avoid Jingmen City.

In Dangyang, there is a place called Changbanpo, which is the place where Zhao Zilong entered and exited seven times.

There is also a river in Dangyang, called Zhangshui River, which runs from north to south, and Zhang Yide is on the Zhangshui Bridge to scare off Cao Cao's million-strong division.

"The army went west, detoured to Dangyang, and went straight to Jiangling City!"

After Lin Yuan thought about it repeatedly, he made a decision directly.

He didn't have time for Wei Yan to start a tug-of-war under Jingmen City, and besides, all the cavalry he led this time was not suitable for attacking the city at all.

The army immediately changed its course, bypassed Zhangshui, and entered the Dangyang realm.

On the boundaries of Jingmen County, it is difficult to see villages, and there is wilderness everywhere.

When Zhong Xiang's rebel army captured Jingmen County, it adopted the strategy of clearing the wall, destroying all the lord's villages and moving the population to Jingmen City.

It is the same as Lin Yuan's strategy in Wushan Town.

The roads here are all some ravines and ravines, twists and turns, staggered, a little careless to go in the wrong direction, the army marched for most of the day, only walked thirty miles.

"Lord Yu, the front has arrived at the mouth of the Mourning Moon Valley." Scout returns.

"How many miles are there to get to Nagasaka Slope?"

"Seventy miles!"

Lin Yuan frowned slightly, there was still such a long way to go, it seemed that he couldn't get out of here in two or three days.

But fortunately, when you arrive at Nagasaka Slope, there is the Gangneung Plain behind you, and the cavalry can also run completely.

The army marched slowly to the Valley of the Dead Moon.

"Stop!"

Lin Yuan suddenly had a bad feeling, he checked the nearby terrain, and saw that the strange peaks around him were strange, like iron fences, completely trapping the Dead Moon Valley.

"My lord, this is a trapped place, if there is an enemy ambush here, we are in danger!" A military general immediately stepped forward, his expression full of worry.

"I know, but now, we have to move forward."

Lin Yuan frowned, so he had to order the cavalry and continue to move forward.

The further forward he went, the narrower the road in the Valley of the Dead Moon became, and in the end, he could only let three horses go along.

Bang!

On the mountain walls on both sides, there was a sudden rumbling sound, and then dozens of boulders rolled down from the top of the mountain.

"Not good! There is an ambush! ”

"Protect the lord!"

The generals' expressions changed drastically, and they immediately protected Lin Yuan in the center.

The boulder rolled down and hit dozens of horsemen in an instant, and the war horse was smashed into mud on the spot.

On the top of the mountain, there were waves of Zhongxiang rebels, waving their flags and shouting, and the number was about tens of thousands.

Among them, there is a flag that slowly appears.

Under the flag, there is a military general wearing heavy armor and riding a tall horse, with a carved face and sharp eyes, holding a glaive knife and looking down.

"Wei Yan has been here for a long time in the name of the military advisor!"

"Wei Yan?"

Lin Yuan clenched his fists, he didn't expect that Wei Yan would actually ambush him here.

He wanted to take a detour to Dangyang, but it seemed to be calculated.

"General Wei Yan, I have admired the name for a long time!"

Lin Yuan immediately shouted, "With the talent of a general, serving the Zhongxiang rebels is equivalent to a pearl in the dark, why not abandon the secret and create a peaceful and prosperous era with me?" ”

Wei Yan's talent is no less than that of the Five Tiger Generals, and even Wei Yan at the peak is enough to match any of the Five Tiger Generals.

He is not only brave, but also a great commander of the army.

At the end of Liu Bei, it was he who guarded Hanzhong alone, making Cao Cao's army rare.

As for the bone in the back of his head, it is just a crime deliberately planted by later generations.

Zhuge Liang didn't think about killing him.

It was a military mutiny launched by Yang Yi and others in order to seize military power.

Wei Yan's talent, Lin Yuan is very eager to get.

That's why he's going to recruit now.

"Phew! I'm dying, and you're still trying to recruit me? ”

Regarding Lin Yuan's recruitment, Wei Yan did not have the slightest intention of moving, and his eyes were firm.

"Shoot the arrows!"

With his order, the arrows on the top of the mountain were fired.

Arrows rained down.

Lin Yuan swung his knife and slashed several arrows, but the number of arrows was too large, and several of them leaked, shooting on his armor, colliding with strings of sparks.

The black hammer purple gold armor has strong defense, and it is difficult for ordinary arrows to break the defense.

"Keep going!"

Lin Yuan raised his sword and moved forward, and the first horse charged forward.

"Kill!"

"Kill!"

Suddenly, there were two shouts of killing from behind the cavalry battalion, and there was a commotion in the rear.

"My lord, two ambushes rushed out of the sloping valley in the rear, entangled with the rear of the cavalry battalion."

"The lord will go first, Chengdu will cover the rear team!"

Yuwen Chengdu carried the phoenix wings and gold hammer, and rushed back after patting the horse.

"Xiao Guowei, you are responsible for protecting the lord and breaking out of the encirclement!"

Before leaving, he also left the Eighteen Xiaoguo Guards to Lin Yuan to protect his safety.

Lin Yuan nodded, this Moon Valley, the way back was blocked, so he could only rush forward.

He immediately galloped through the narrow mountain path and headed straight ahead.

And on the top of the mountain, Wei Yan has been paying attention to Lin Yuan.

At this moment, seeing that Lin Yuan only led a dozen cavalry through the narrow road and went straight to the front, he immediately ordered hundreds of cavalry guards and began to pursue Lin Yuan.
