After Sun Shangxiang is completely done. Zhao Zhenbang commanded more than a dozen small followers and began an orderly infiltration plan.

Zhao Xing once warned his son that when engaging in secret infiltration and infiltration of undercover agents, he must not be in a hurry, and he must implement it with a silent mentality, otherwise it is easy to startle the grass and snakes, and stealing chickens will not lead to rice. The so-called "the machine is not secret, the disaster first", is also this truth.

Zhao Zhenbang's admonition to his father has never been about going in and out of the left ear, because there have been many examples to prove that his father does have thinking and opinions that others do not have. Therefore, Zhao Zhenbang took a step-by-step approach from the beginning, slowly approaching the Yuan family's mansion.

When Zhao Xing left, he had a long talk with Zhao Zhenbang, carefully analyzed the current situation, and also revealed his strategic thinking of occupying the northwest first, then the northeast, and then North China and East China. Therefore, Zhao Zhenbang knows very well that the current Qingxu battlefield will maintain the status quo for the time being, and it is difficult to start a major battle. The Xuzhou army needs to improve its combat strength and stabilize the rear; Liu Yan in Yuzhou and Yuan Shu in Yangzhou are now more than self-preservation, and they have no courage to launch an offensive against Xuzhou; the Sun Wu forces in Jiangnan, which are most likely to be variable, do not seem to be a problem now, because Zhao Zhenbang has dealt with Sun Shangxiang.

Zhao Zhenbang had already ordered someone to secretly send a secret letter to the fifth uncle Zhang Liao, reporting the encounter with Sun Shangxiang, and bluntly said that he had already finished the Sun family's sister. It is believed that after Zhang Liao received this unexpected surprise, he would definitely properly handle the relationship with Sun Jian's forces in Eastern Wu.

Xuzhou has nothing to do for the time being, but Jizhou has reached the final stage.

On the surface, there was only a Xiongwu army to maintain the situation of the Jizhou Army, in fact, there were a full 40,000 reserve troops, under the careful organization and command of Tian Feng, they tried their best to hide in the mountains, forests and hills, and kept a certain distance from the pre-ambushed gall Tao City, just waiting for Zhang Fei to lead the 30,000 southern army to break in, and then be caught in the urn.

The Xiongwu Army, stationed in the eastern part of the mainland, has been secretly making a batch of simple rafts these days, the purpose of which is to cross the continent, which is nearly 50 miles wide on the surface of the lake.

According to Zhu Jun and Zhang Fei's combat intentions, they adopted a steady and steady approach, first letting the 30,000 Southern Army as the pioneer, occupying a piece of territory in front, and then mobilizing Liu Biao and Liu Yan's troops who came to support Jizhou to follow up, and stationed in some strong cities in time, to ensure that the part that Zhang Fei went to was always connected with Zhu Jun in Yecheng in the rear.

The intention of the Xiongwu Army was to wait for Zhang Fei's 30,000 southern army to enter the gall at the same time, take advantage of the night to suddenly cross the lake, land on the west bank of the mainland, and then occupy a favorable terrain between Renxian and the Bai people, quickly wedge between Zhang Fei's army and Liu Pan's army, and completely cut off Zhang Fei's back road.

The Xiongwu Army participated in the battle of Duze with a total of 20,000 soldiers, but it was not an easy task to deal with Zhang Fei's 30,000 soldiers and horses and Liu Pan's 30,000 soldiers who followed.

In order to prevent the 10,000 Xiongwu troops remaining in the Nangong area from being attacked by Cao Cao's Cao Ren army stationed in the Guantao area of Yanzhou, Tian Feng contacted Zhao Yun and Guo Jia of the Qingzhou Army in time, and asked the Flying Tiger Army to send 10,000 cavalry from Linji, closely follow the Bohai Bay to the north, and secretly enter the vicinity of Xindu, fifty miles east of Nangong, and be ready to support at any time.

Since Zhang Fei led the army from Yecheng, he has continuously attacked more than a dozen cities of all sizes, and now Chen Bing is in the county seat, and after a short rest of the 30,000 army, he will go north again, and go straight to the important city of Jizhou.

At that time, Yuan Shao's old general Zhang He was able to defend the city of Gall for more than three months with less than 20,000 soldiers, and the Montenegrin army and Xiongwu army of the Jin State could not go south. If Zhang Fei was able to take the city of Gall this time, the southern part of Jizhou would completely fall into the hands of the central court, which could not only greatly contain the connection between the Jin army of Qingzhou and the Jin army of Jizhou, but also form an effective threat to the Jin state from the east.

Zhang Fei, who had already suffered a big defeat on the side of the Fen River, is now acting more and more cautiously, if there is another Fenshui defeat, even if Liu Bei can forgive him, Zhang Fei himself will commit suicide directly because of shame and indignation.

Zhang Fei sent a large number of sentries and spies to operate in the vicinity of Gaunt, and the reports received were that there were only a few thousand soldiers left in the city of Gauntao, and the Xiongwu army was currently stationed in the area of Nangong and Xindu, seemingly to protect the mouth of Bohai County to the sea.

So, how did the 20,000 Xiong Zhen Army and the 20,000 soldiers of the Marine Brigade who went south to support Jizhou evade the sentinel sent by Zhang Fei to investigate?

It turned out that they were now hiding in the Fucheng area, which was more than forty miles northeast of the city of Gand Tao and close to Zhangshui. The 20,000 men of Xiong's army were transferred from Quanzhou Naval City from the Bohai Sea by boat, and when they reached the mouth of Zhangshui in the northeast of Bohai County, the fleet went upstream, slowly approaching the Fucheng area.

The 20,000 Danyang soldiers of the Marine Brigade were originally training near Lecheng in Bohai County, but after receiving the order to secretly transfer in, they were broken into pieces and moved westward in small groups until they reached Wu County, a pre-designated assembly area. Wu County is on the north bank of Zhangshui, only more than 30 miles away from Fucheng, and only 80 miles away from Gall Tao.

After a few days of rest, Zhang Fei received a report from Liu Pan that the 20,000 troops led by Liu Yan and Chen Zhi had rushed to Guangping to replace him, so Liu Pan was leading 30,000 Jingzhou soldiers to march north quickly, preparing to take over Zhang Fei's garrison in Ren County.

After the sentry came to report that Liu Panjun had arrived in Pingxiang, twenty miles south of Ren County, Zhang Fei immediately led his army north. In Zhang Fei's view, the distance between the two armies was only twenty miles, which was already very small, and it would not give the enemy any opportunity to take advantage of at all.

When Liu Pan led the army to Ren County, Zhang Fei happened to lead the team to pass east of the Bairen by sticking to the mainland.

That night, Zhang Fei commanded the army to rest, and ambushed soldiers around the camp, but there was nothing wrong all night, and no abnormalities were found. On the second day, the army continued its march northward, and finally reached the outside of the city of Gauntow at noon.

After Zhang Fei asked the soldiers to rest for a while, he immediately launched a siege battle with all his might. After a hard battle, the 2,000 Jizhou legion guards guarding Gaunt Tao finally abandoned the city and fled eastward because they were outnumbered.

After seeing the defenders in the city abandon the city and leave, Zhang Fei unexpectedly did not order the army to enter the city of Gauntao, but commanded the troops to slowly pursue the east along the direction of the Jin army in the city to flee, and the target Huo Ran was actually Nangong City east of the mainland.

Zhang Fei's move was beyond Tian Feng's expectations, how could the 40,000 combined troops ambushed in the Fucheng area force Zhang Fei to retreat into the city of Gall?
