The dust and smoke were billowing in, and a silent army was steadily entering the avenue, and the big banner with the word "Feng" was fluttering in the wind.

Feng Binbin rode his horse, his eyes surrounded by a bit of unfathomable.

In the field of vision, the terrain ahead is getting more and more open, and Feng Binbin's mind has become cheerful.

A horse came from the past, it was Hu Kun, one of the subordinates of the former Later Liang Rebellion, he reined in his horse and said: "Engong, in another twenty miles ahead, you will enter the boundary of Luoyang City. ”

Feng Binbin nodded slightly, waved his hand and said, "Order the whole army to camp for the time being, and not to cross the state border without permission." ”

Ji Fan, who betrayed Emperor Deng beside him, raised his thick eyebrows and frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Why don't you kill Ben Qianyang with a style of work, kill that Xu Han to avenge your hatred, but you have to stop?" ”

When Xu Han was mentioned, Ji Fan's face burst with hatred, obviously Yunlin's defeat made him hate Xu Han deeply.

"Ji Fan's revenge on you has its own time of revenge, but Xu Han is quite capable and should not be underestimated." Feng Binbin looked very cautious.

Hearing that Feng Binbin spoke highly of Xu Han, Ji Fanqi had a trace of displeasure on his face, but in front of Feng Binbin, he didn't dare to show it too much.

The order was laid, and the soldiers and horses on the march gradually stopped.

Ji Fanqi couldn't help but ask, "Engong, how do you plan to deal with that Xu Han?" ”

Feng Binbin looked into the distance, and a sly smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Have you forgotten, the vassal king of Luoyang City, but he gritted his teeth with hatred for Xu Han, how can he not take advantage of this opportunity." ”

Luoyang City, the capital of the state.

In the lobby, Han Zhaofu was holding the letter in his hand and was looking at it carefully.

Suddenly, Rui'an, Shi Ci and other civil and military officials entered one after another: "The king urgently summoned me to come, could it be that there is something urgent?" ”

Rui'an is the best at observing faces, and every time he enters the hall, he can see that Han Zhaofu has something on his mind.

"Take a look at this letter first." Han Zhaofu's tone was flat, and he handed over the letter to the left and right.

Rui An then circulated and watched, and when everyone saw the signature in the letter, they couldn't help but show a little strange color.

The signature in the letter is Feng Binbin.

Han Zhaofu stroked his beard and said slowly: "Feng Binbin's staff Hu Kun arrived in Luoyang this morning, claiming that Feng Binbin wants to join forces with this king to destroy Xu Han's house, what do you think about this matter?" ”

In the lobby, there was a sudden silence.

Han Zhaofu originally thought that as soon as his words came out, the hardliners in the hall such as Shi Ci would be very excited, clamoring to join forces with Feng Binbin, except for Xu Han to avenge the past.

The silence of everyone couldn't help but make Han Zhaofu feel a little surprised.

"Why, no one is in favor of joining forces with Feng Binbin?" Han Zhao Fuqi said.

Rui An coughed a few times, slowly stood up, and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, Feng Binbin is the head of the Houliang Rebellion and thieves, and his subordinates think that if they join forces with him, even if they get rid of Xu Han, I am afraid that they will also reject the wolf at the front door, and welcome the tiger at the back door, once the Houliang recovers, there will be endless disasters." ”

As he spoke, Rui An glanced at Shi Ci again.

Shi Ci hurriedly said: "Although Feng Binbin claims to have more than 10,000 troops in the south, and his momentum is huge, but this person has defeated more than he has won, if we rashly unite with him, in case we repeat the mistake of the previous Xiao Zhennan, wouldn't it be because of a small loss." ”

The old thing was brought up again, and a trace of palpitation immediately flashed on Han Zhaofu's old face.

The pain of two defeats, Han Zhao can forget.

"You two are reasonable, so it seems that this king should reject Feng Binbin?"

At this time, Rui An shook his head and smiled, "Feng Binbin's kindness, how can the king brush it, and he should happily agree." ”

Han Zhaofu was confused now, listening to Rui An say yes for a while, and then say no, the inconsistent meaning made him a little dizzy.

Wang Shangke promised Feng Binbin, pretending to send troops to support, but in fact he sat on the mountain and watched the tiger. If Xu Han wins, if Feng Bin wins, we can take the opportunity to send troops to Qianyang and reap the benefits of the fishermen. ”

Rui An stroked his beard and said with a slight meaning.

His strategy was similar to that of his previous one, but this time it was a temporary non-reinforcement, and it was obvious that the failure of the last time had made him lose the confidence that he would win.

Han Zhaofu nodded secretly when he listened, and praised: "Rui'an's plan is wonderful, this king will repair a book, and let Feng Binbin and Xu Han fight to the death." ”

"The king is wise!" Ruian bowed his hand to compliment.

At dusk, Hu Kun, who rode out of Luoyang City and had Han Zhaofu's alliance book, took a small path to bypass Qianyang and went straight to the east and west.

At the same time as Hu Kun set off, an army under the banner of Zhou Liang also set out from Qianyang, looking at Yangcheng.

Yangcheng is the only place to pass through from Qianyang to the south, and its location is exactly in the middle of Qianyang City and the southern Zhishou Ancheng, because it is a narrow and poor Yangdi, it is quite far away from Luoyang, and it is not a dangerous place, so it is not watched.

When Xu Han attacked Luoyang City, Yangcheng was not garrisoned at all, and he also occupied Yangcheng bloodlessly before continuing to advance westward and defeated Jiang Zhengjun near Qianyang.

This time, Xu Han chose the tactics of "defending the enemy against the country", and sent Zhou Liang to lead the army into Yangcheng before Feng Binbin entered Luoyang City.

As Zhou Liang's army entered Yangcheng, hundreds of people also sent from the seven counties of Qianyang, transporting grain to Yangcheng day and night.

Five days later, fifteen miles east of Yangcheng, Feng Binbin, escorted by more than ten cavalry troops, approached Yangcheng several miles away to observe the enemy's situation.

Climbing a hill, Feng Binbin looked at the horse from afar, and the entire Yangcheng City was in full view.

Ji Fan pointed to the enemy city and said slowly: "According to the scout's report, there are only more than 1,000 enemy troops entering Yangcheng, and the enemy general is Zhou Liang, the rebel army in the south. “

In Ji Fanqi's tone, he did not hide his admiration for Feng Binbin's scheme.

"Engong deliberately spread the matter of King Han's promise to unite to Qianyang, then it is strange that Xu Han is not scheming, Engong's plan is really wonderful." Hu Kun on the other side also praised.

Feng Binbin stroked his short beard lightly, his face was as calm as water, but in his narrowed eyes, there was a slight smugness inadvertently.

"As long as Xu Han is destroyed, Qianyang counties are taken, and the battle of Shanchun City is held, if Xuan Guo wins, I can use King Han to resist Xuan Guo. If Yi Guo wins, I can take advantage of the situation to borrow the power of Emperor Li to help me take Luoyang in the south, and no matter what, I can be invincible......"

Feng Binbin was thinking about the beautiful blueprint in his heart, and a smile secretly flowed from the corner of his mouth.

After thinking for a moment, Feng Binbin pointed at Yangcheng with a horse whip, and said coldly: "Xu Han didn't dare to raise a large army to come, just a Zhou Liang is enough." Whoever rises, sends the order down, that the whole army is fed tonight, and that the city will be attacked early tomorrow morning. ”

Feng Binbin's tone was full of confidence, as if it was easy to win Yangcheng.

"Brother Feng, don't worry, tomorrow at this time, I will order the flag to be planted in Yangcheng!" Ji Fanqi proudly accepted the order.

That night, Feng Binbin ordered 10,000 troops to force the city on all sides, and surrounded a small Yangcheng city.

In order to show his benevolence, Feng Binbin also specially ordered to write hundreds of letters of persuasion to surrender, asking the archers to shoot into the city first, persuading Zhou Liang and others not to hit stones with eggs, stubbornly resist his army, and open the city to surrender as soon as possible, so as not to suffer from the fire of war in the city.

When the moon passed, a figure appeared on the head of the city.

The blade-like gaze looked at the bright Feng Bin Bin camp outside the city, and a trace of weirdness quietly swept over his cold face.

Footsteps sounded, and Zhou Liang hurriedly climbed to the top of the city.

"General, this is the letter of persuasion that Feng Binbin shot into the city, please take a look at it." Zhou Liang presented the silk book with both hands.

By the light of the torch, Xu Han glanced at the silk book roughly, threw it into the furnace with disdain, and burned it clean.

Zhou Liang pointed to the enemy camp outside the city and said with a smile: "Feng Binbin forced the city to go down, it seems that he is completely unaware, and the general's strategy is really wonderful." In his words, he made no secret of his admiration for Xu Han.

When Xu Han turned to the enemy camp outside the city, his eyes were already full of murderous energy, "Feng Binbin, you came to provoke me first." ”

The east is white, and the sky is getting brighter.

When the first rays of morning glow rose, the west of Yangcheng was already layered and covered with soldiers and horses.

Ji Fanqi rode a handsome horse, stationed on the horse and crossed the sword, his eyes were half-open and half-closed, and he was nine feet nine tall with a lonely momentum, coldly despising the enemy city.

The flag behind him is rolling like a wave, and the red flag with the word "season" is extremely dazzling.

More than 10,000 rebel armies lined up behind them, because they had just been recruited, these rebel armies still had a strong rogue style, and when they were arrayed, they were still talking to each other.

Ji Fanqi turned his head abruptly and glared angrily.

Those whispering sergeants were intimidated by Ji Fanqi's prestige, and they all kept their mouths shut.

"Although the soldiers are not good, it is no longer a problem to break through a mere Yang City."

When he turned around, the pride on Ji Fanqi's face rose again, and the big sword pointed slightly towards Yangcheng City, and said loudly: "The whole army, attack the city!" ”

Under the command, all kinds of flags shook like waves.

More than ten cowhide drums were beaten at the same time, and the rumbling drums rose together like thunder.

As soon as the drum was raised, the 10,000 rebel troops immediately stood in silence and hurriedly tightened their weapons.

After the two drums, the three thousand front siege echelons began to carry the ladder and push the siege equipment such as the rushing cart, and slowly marched towards Yangcheng City.

The rest of the sergeants who swept the formation shouted and killed like a tide, cheering on the siege team.

In the Central Military Department, seeing the momentum of his own army, Feng Binbin's eyebrows couldn't help but show a little pride.

"Ji Fan's ability to train soldiers is really good, how long has it been, and he has trained a rabble like this." Feng Binbin stroked his beard in his hand, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise a smile.

Ji Fanqi of the former military department, looking at the general attack in an orderly manner, the arrogance in his expression became heavier, he looked at the enemy city coldly, and said disdainfully: "Xu Han, Yunlin spares your life, this time, I, Ji Fanqi, have to take your head." ”

At the head of Yangcheng, the flags are not neat, there are not many sergeants, and hundreds of soldiers are scattered along the line of the city.

The weakness of the defenders is in stark contrast to the strength of Feng Binbin's siege troops.

In a matter of moments, the forward siege team was closing in front of the moat.

At the moment before the siege battle, the tightly closed city gate suddenly creaked open, and the hanging suspension bridge was slowly lowered, this sudden change couldn't help but Feng Binbin's army was suspicious, and even Ji Fanqi's proud face revealed a trace of strangeness.

Could it be that the defenders still want to fight back?

With only a thousand soldiers and horses, even if they are killed, they are killing themselves, Ji Fan was only surprised for a moment, and then he had to recover his disdain, and ordered the support team to prepare to counterattack the enemy army.

At this time, something happened that surprised all Feng Binbin.

In the open city gate, there were indeed enemy troops coming out, but they were not the large number of enemy soldiers they imagined.

Only, one person and one ride.

The tower-like man, mounted on a black pony and carrying a bright steel knife in his hand, slowly walked out of the city and reached the drawbridge.

Ji Fanqi's face suddenly showed surprise, and the anger in his eyes burst out.

The enemy general who rode out of the city alone was Xu Han!
