Speaking of Jinjiling, there have long been reports that reported the information about Tuoba Xiong's siege of Liujiabao to Zhao Tianyi. The old hero was rejoiced, and he immediately convened all the generals to discuss and prepare to recapture the Red Dragon Castle.

When the generals learned that Tuoba Xiong had transferred heavy troops to besiege Liujiabao and could not attack it for a long time, they were all overjoyed, and the entire Juyi Hall was excited, and everyone shouted that they would immediately send troops to recapture Chilong Fort.

There was an old man who didn't say a word among the generals, but shook his head gently. This person's surname is Chen, his name is far-reaching, erudite and talented, it can be said that he has a splendid chest and a hidden jewel in his belly, which is quite relied on by Zhao Tianyi.

Zhao Tianyi wanted to hear his opinion, and stared at him with his eyes.

Chen Yang sensed that the Lord of Zhao Castle was looking at him, and it was inconvenient to continue to remain silent, so he got up and spoke: "Lord Zhao Castle, generals, in my opinion, you must not attack Red Dragon Fort at present!"

As soon as these words came out, the hall was immediately silent, and everyone's eyes suddenly shifted to Chen Yang.

"Why did Mr. Chen say this? Isn't now the best time to take back his homeland?" Zhao Tianyi was also quite puzzled.

"Lord Zhaobao, generals, although Tuoba Xiong raised troops on an expedition and the rear was empty, the military strength was still far superior to ours, the defenders of Red Dragon Fort were more than a thousand people, and we only had a total of eight or nine hundred people, and it was easy to defend the city and difficult to attack the city, how could we storm it?"

As soon as Chen Yang spoke, everyone's passion was extinguished, and some people began to sigh.

"Mr. Chen, can't we do nothing? I'm also sorry for Liu Jiabao, we and Liu Jiabao have been cute brothers!" A young general was very unconvinced and asked loudly.

"We should help Liujiabao, but we can only do what we can, it is better to besiege the city to help, pretend to attack the city, and lure the enemy to come to the rescue, we set up an ambush in advance at the dangerous place, and when the enemy army is more than half, we will fight to fight out, and we will be able to win a big victory, and then move like this, maybe there is a possibility of recapturing Chilong Fort." Chen Yang explained his strategy to everyone in detail, and everyone nodded.

Zhao Tianyi was overjoyed and acted according to the plan. He went down the mountain with all the men and horses of Jinjiling, set up camp outside the east gate of Chilong Fort, and went to the fort every day to scold the battle.

Tuoba Hong, the defender of Red Dragon Fort, knew very well that Zhao Tianyi was powerful, and if he hadn't sent Han people to open the city gate at that time, Tuoba would have been able to capture Red Dragon Fort? I'm afraid Tuoba Xiong himself didn't believe it. Now that the marshal is not in a good position to fight abroad, he has the courage to meet the enemy, and if he goes out of business, he will not be able to save his head.

Tuoba Hong made up his mind, died down, hung the battle card, and only prepared enough rolling wood and thunder stones on the city wall, waiting for the Han army to attack the city.

Zhao Tianyi ordered people to plant flags all over Dazhai, and the golden drums sounded in unison every day, pretending to be a siege, but there was no actual action.

Tuoba Hong was disturbed by the Han army and was distraught, and he had a personal offering: "The Han army outside the city is not large, it is better to attack the enemy camp at night, and you will definitely be able to capture the leader of the Han dog." ”

"No, no, no, don't act recklessly, then Zhao Tianyi is powerful!" Tuoba Hong was cautious, for fear of being ambushed and losing the Red Dragon Castle.

"Then go to the headquarters to ask for help, we will fight back and forth, and we will be able to win a big victory. "Kiss and come up with ideas.

"Well, that's a good plan!" Satisfied, he hesitated for a moment and ordered a sergeant to go out of the city at night and ask for help from the White River headquarters.

"Qiqi Zhao Fort Lord, the enemy army has already gone on the road to ask for help. As soon as the sergeant asking for help left Chilong Fort, the detective who was ambushed outside the gate of Chilong Fort reported the information to Zhao Tianyi.

Zhao Tianyi was overjoyed and personally led 800 men and horses to ambush halfway.

On this day, Tuoba was really happy. Wang Daoren finally found it, and when he told him the conditions for his father to let him kill Huang Xian, Wang Daochang agreed and offered to find a few Han people as helpers. Tuoba Zhen instructed Liu Qiang and four other Han Chinese to listen to him.

After sending off Wang Daochang, Tuoba really drank a few cups in the evening, and when he was drunk and smoked, he was about to rest, and he personally entered the tent to report, and Chilong Fort sent someone to ask for help.

Tuoba really asked someone to come in and talk back. The sergeant sent for help presented a letter of distress from Tuoba Hong and reported the general situation of the Han army.

Tuoba Zhen has never taken Tuoba Hong seriously, thinking that this person is too cowardly and useless, and thinks: What an incompetent person, a mere 1,800 Han army, just go out of the city and scatter them, and send someone to me for help. Then I thought about it: My father's southern expedition to Liujiabao has been unable to attack for a long time, and he is making trouble with himself, if there is another mistake in the rear, it will not disturb his father's handsomeness.

"Hey, you go back and tell Tuoba Hong, let him not panic, I will immediately send troops to relieve the siege, with the fire as a signal, let Tuoba Hong go out of the city to respond, we will attack twice, and kill the Han army. Tuoba Zhen sighed and prepared to send troops to the rescue.

The sergeant who asked for help was overjoyed and immediately returned to Chilong Fort.

Tuoba Zhen immediately ordered the general Tuoba Ling to lead a thousand cavalry to rush to the aid of Chilong Fort overnight.

At the time of the third watch, some Zhai Ding reminded Zhao Tianyi that Hu Bing, who asked for help, came back. Zhao Tianyi's eyes looked carefully, and he saw that someone on the official road was riding a horse from the south, and there was no sound, obviously a bundle of horses, deliberately not letting people notice his whereabouts. Zhao Tianyi motioned to everyone not to make a noise and let go of this Hu Bing.

After another half an hour, a group of men and horses galloped on the official road, and the ground trembled under their feet with their iron hooves.

Zhao Tianyi was overjoyed, and when the cavalry was halfway over, he shouted and led everyone to rush up, and there was a scuffle between the two sides.

Tuoba Ling was unprepared, was killed in a daze, and lost most of his men and horses in an instant, just when he was in a hurry, he suddenly saw a veteran killed in the chaotic army, and stabbed him head-on.

Tuoba Ling raised the wolf's tooth lance to fight back in a hurry, and did not fight for two rounds, only to hear the veteran roar, and one shot to pick Tuoba Ling under the horse.

The veteran is the old hero Zhao Tianyi.

When Hu Bing saw that the coach was killed, he had no intention of fighting, and retreated in embarrassment.

Zhao Tianyi didn't chase either, he ordered to quickly clean up the battlefield, let dozens of Zhaiding take off their battle robes, put on the armor of the Hu soldiers who died in battle, and then led the men and horses back to Chilong Fort.

When approaching the Red Dragon Fort, Zhao Tianyi instructed Ling Cao to lead dozens of Zhai soldiers wearing Hu Bing armor to guard the outside of Dazhai and act like this after the Dazhai caught fire; let Zhao Kui return to Dazhai to choose the opportunity to set it on fire; and he led the rest of the men and horses to secretly ambush not far from the east gate of Chilong Fort.

Zhao Kui returned to Dazhai and estimated that the lord of Zhaobao had been ambushed, so he asked people to put a few fires in the open space, and then ordered the people and horses in the village to pretend to attack and kill each other, and shouted loudly in Dazhai while galloping back and forth.

The sergeant who asked for help returned to Chilong Fort and reported the news of Tuoba Zhen's rescue to Tuoba Hong, saying that in the second half of the night, he would raise a fire and let him lead his troops out of the city to kill the enemy together.

Tuoba Hong arranged the whole city and waited in the east gate, waiting for the enemy Dazhai to catch fire, and then went out of the city to receive reinforcements.

"General, the enemy camp is on fire. Hurry up and give the order to get out of the city. Someone reminded Tuobahong.

"Wait, don't be reckless, Hugh will fall for the enemy's tricks. Tuoba Hong also saw the fire of the enemy camp and heard the shouts of killing, but he was cautious and refused to leave the city easily.

"General, rush over a group of men!"

With the help of the lantern ball torches on the city tower, Tuoba Hong took a closer look, and saw dozens of war horses flying from the direction of the Han army's Dazhai, and saw that the robes and armor were indeed his own people.

"Hey, please General Tuoba Hong hurry out of the city to respond. The group of men and horses shouted at the tower, and before the tower could react, they turned their horses and killed them again.

"Get out of the city and kill the enemy!" Tuoba Hong finally gave the order.

Zhao Tianyi secretly pinched a handful of sweat, and his heart was full of doubts: Does Mr. Chen Yang's strategy work, can he bring Tuoba Hongyu out, if he doesn't come out, he can only lead the people back to Jinjiling.

Just when he was worried, he suddenly heard a creaking sound at the city gate, and Hu Bing came out of the Red Dragon Fort. Zhao Tianyi was overjoyed, he waited patiently for Hu Bing to come out, and then shouted and rushed up first, Hu Bing was caught off guard, and was rushed to pieces, and the two sides were in a scuffle.

Ling Cao learned that the enemy was planning and led all the horses in Dazhai to kill together, Tuoba Hong couldn't parry, and led the remnants of the army to abandon the city.

Zhao Tianyi entered the Red Dragon Fort, while ordering the generals to guard the four city gates, and on the other hand, he sent people to search for and eliminate the remnants of the Hu soldiers.

Red Dragon Fort was lost and regained.
