"Raise the account!"

After learning that Hong Chengchou had withdrawn to Linyi County, Chen Xinjia was even more excited.

He immediately summoned Gao Qiqian, Deng Xi, Zu Dabi, and Liu Liangzuo for urgent discussion.

There are two generals under Deng Xi, the chief soldier of Sichuan, one is named Yang Yuchun, who is Deng Xi's hometown, and the other is Zhang Yunpeng, who is Chen Xinjia's hometown, both of whom are from Changshou County.

Yang Yuchun and Zhang Yunpeng are all fierce generals who have participated in the Lu'an Rebellion, and the Sichuan soldiers at this time like to use spears, and many of the soldiers under their jurisdiction are also local Tusi soldiers, such as the Yi soldiers in western Sichuan, and the Tujia and Miao soldiers in Chongqing.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this is the case, how to deal with it, I hope to speak freely."

Zhang Yunpeng was short and concise, he was only a sentry when he attacked Luxury Chongming, but he was the first to attack Luxury Chongming's nest "first", don't look at his stature is not tall, but his strength is great, when attacking Luxury Chongming's nest, he held a twenty-pound iron shield in one hand and a hammer of the same weight in the other, and went up to the city wall in ten breaths.

Since then, he has risen through the ranks to his current guerrilla general.

Just now, after Zhang Yunpeng was instructed by Chen Xinjia to talk about the current situation, he stood behind Chen Xinjia triumphantly, which made his original boss Deng Xi and colleague Yang Yuchun suddenly look sideways.

Under Deng Xi sat Zu Dashou's younger brother Zu Dabi, this fierce general with a beard and a pair of slender Danfeng eyes, because he had two thousand elite horsemen, he would not have put anyone in his eyes, but after learning that his strength was no less than his own Zu Kuan's successive defeats, his arrogance was slightly lowered.

On the opposite side of Deng Xi and Zu Dabi is Liu Liangzuo, who is in his thirties, but this person has an unpredictable look of joy and anger.

At the head of Liu Liangzuo, there sat Zu Dabi's deputy, Guangning guerrilla Zhang Kefan, like Zu Kuan, Zu Dabi's command had many cavalry from Karaqin Mongolia, and most of the Han cavalry was in the hands of Zhang Kefan.

A thousand cavalry, although only a guerrilla general, Zhang Kefan's men and horses are obviously a force that can influence the situation of the battle, so Chen Xinjia asked him to also attend.

After hearing Chen Xinjia's words, everyone was silent for a while at first, and for a while, Liu Liangzuo was still eye-catching, and said first: "Dashuai, judging from the end and the future, since there is still one thief outside, and now it is also moving closer to Anyi County, so we have two choices."

"Regardless of this part, let them return to the camp, and then confront them, since the purpose of the thieves is to go south to Henan, it is indispensable to cross the river, and they will definitely not be able to get up quickly with a large number of family members, so when they cross the river, it is the time when we will attack in a big way."

"This is the best policy, second, to attack the thief army outside, preferably cavalry, so that if it is unfavorable, you can evacuate as soon as possible, if the thief battalion sends troops and horses to rescue, at this time we have two choices."

"First, attack the soldiers and horses that are out so that they cannot be rescued."

"Or, attack the camp immediately, the thieves' army is not much, and if you go out with two men and horses at once, the camp will definitely be empty, and if you attack again at this time, you can get miraculous results."

"Humph!"

Zu Dabi snorted coldly.

"The cavalry of the thieves can defeat the three madmen, how can they be so good? In my opinion, it is better to hold on to the camp and wait for them to cross the river."

Liu Liangzuo was embarrassed for a while, he didn't know Zu Dabi's subtext, "I can't even ride Guanning Tieqi, and others don't have to go out and be embarrassed", but he was afraid of the power of the ancestral family, so he had to pretend to cough to cover up the past.

Like Zhang Yunpeng, Deng Xi, the general soldier of Sichuan, is also short and concise, but his expression is neither as happy as Zu Dabi, nor as good as Liu Liangzuo, but always has a faint inexplicable meaning at the corner of his mouth.

Chen Xinjia never understood what he meant.

"The Great"

Deng Xi finally spoke, he was the chief soldier, and he was a very favorite character in Jinshang - when Huang Taiji entered the customs for the first time, he was a rare can

There was no one who dispatched a large army to fight fiercely with the Manchu and Mongolian armies who came out of Xifengkou.

Of course, Zhou Yuji and Zuo Liangyu also fought against the Jianzhou people, but because of their small military strength, they were just flanking their partial divisions, and Deng Xi was the only general soldier who led the white pole soldiers to fight fiercely in the Zunhua area with the blue flag master Mang Guer and the blue flag behind the Huang Taiji Palace.

Not only that, but he not only had a big battle with Mang Gurtai, but after the battle, his more than 3,000 white-pole soldiers only lost three or four hundred, such a record, at least at this time, the Ming Dynasty was the only one for scorpion.

However, Deng Xi's white pole soldiers were extremely poor, although their combat power was strong, the disaster in the Gyeonggi area was also different from that of Jiannu, and when Dengzhou encircled and suppressed the rebels in Dongjiang Town, it was common to slaughter the city and plunder Yin.

In addition to Deng Xi, the military discipline is also very poor is Zu Kuan, people often call it and Zu Kuan, known as "Deng Zu", Zuo Liangyu, He Renlong's military discipline is also very poor, but compared with Deng Xi and Zu Kuan, it can be imagined how corrupt the military discipline of these two people is.

"The last general also thinks that he can send out elite cavalry to test the thieves outside, and they all say that Guanning Iron Cavalry is invincible in the world, and even Jiannu is not afraid, so why be afraid of thieves?"

At this time, Chen Xinjia finally understood what Deng Xi's look meant.

Jokes, thick banter.

This is the personal grudge between Deng Xi and Zu Kuan.

There is a county called Qixia County near Dengzhou, the county is rich in gold, at that time, all the people from all walks of life rushed to get the county as their base camp, in order to fight for this place, Deng Xi also secretly fought with Zu Kuan, and finally naturally suffered a loss.

Although Zu Kuan is a general, after all, he is a slave of Zu Dashou, and he will definitely listen to the "second master" Zu Dabi, so Deng Xi said this.

Although Zu Dabi is also a strong general, and his combat style is mainly brave and tenacious, after all, he has been a senior general in Liaodong for a long time, how can he not understand the wit in Deng Xi's words?

He didn't want to bury all the elite cavalry of his ancestral family here, so he wanted to refute it, but he didn't expect Zhang Kefan on the other side to speak first.

Zhang Kefan, the younger brother of Zhang Cunren, the deputy general of Jinzhou who had surrendered to Huang Taiji, lived in Liaodong and was not yet thirty years old.

"Dashuai", Zhang Kefan said, "I am willing to send troops and horses to test the thief army......

He hugged his fists to Zu Dabi and said: "Second master, don't worry, my command is all light cavalry, now the snow is shining, the road is slippery, this kind of scene is common in my Liaodong, if it is profitable, the final general will naturally take advantage of the victory to pursue, and will not fall into the reputation of Guanning Iron Cavalry."

"If there is a slight disadvantage, I will evacuate quickly and deal with this kind of road, looking at the world, no one is more experienced than me."

He said that from Shanhaiguan to Jinzhou, due to the abundant rainfall and extremely slippery winter, all the cavalry commanders did not have the ability to manipulate the cavalry in this weather and on the road, otherwise they would not be qualified to become cavalry generals.

Hearing Zhang Kefan say this, Zu Dabi suddenly understood that Chen Xinjia had been in contact with him in the past few days, and it was estimated that he had been wooed, although his ancestral family was in Liaodong, but the Zhang family was also a family of Liaodong generals, and they were not vegetarians.

Thinking of this, he said: "Well, people say that I am the second madman of the ancestors, but I didn't expect that the young general Fan can also dare to be the first, in this case, my second crazy man of the ancestors cannot be left behind."

"I figured it out, the first few times Zu Kuan fought against the thieves, the military strength was not superior, and now we have surrounded the main force of the thieves, so I will accompany Ke Fan to go and try the thieves' catties."

Chen Xinjia was overjoyed, "General Zu can be dispatched, and the big things will be done, rest assured, the men and horses left behind in the camp will not let the main force of the thieves be dispatched easily."

......

Since the army of Long 13 and a large number of officers and troops arrived near Anyi County, the people in the townships under the jurisdiction of Linyi County, Qinyuan County, and Xia County suddenly fled and fled to Zhongtiao Mountain, Gushan, and Jishan for refuge.

As a result, it is difficult to see people in the vast countryside.

On the night when Chen Xinjia convened the generals to discuss the meeting, a team of people drove out from Pinglu County.

It is said that Li Zhanchun's third brigade has occupied it since then

After Pinglu County, Long 13 moved the two troops of He Jin and Liu Xiyao, who were attached to him, to this place with the old battalion to assist Li Zhanchun in defending the city.

That night, Li Zhanchun led the cavalry north along the Yuhan Ancient Road.

After crossing Zhongtiao Mountain, he continued north at the western foot of Wangwu Mountain, and soon came to the vicinity of Xia County.

As mentioned earlier, when the Xiaoqiang Brigade went south, it conquered Xia County, and did not occupy this place after conquering, but moved most of the population to Daying near Anyi County.

In the west of Xia County, there is a hundred forts, called Pei Jie Fort (later Pei Jie Town), because this fort is not tall, people have long gone to the fort, Li Zhanchun arrived here and immediately occupied this fort.

At this time, He Jinlong, who was taking the captives and captures, had already arrived at Taocun Town, west of Pei Jiebao, and was stationed there.

All this is unnoticed in the vast and uninhabited Anyi County-Xia County location.

Early the next morning, He Jinlong set off, in addition to his hundreds of cavalry, along with more than 1,000 pikemen from Bai Wenxuan, Long Xiaoshi's firecrackers, and dozens of artillerymen.

Because they were already very close to the camp in Anyi County, Bai Wenxuan and Long Xiaoshi formed a large phalanx in the field.

This large array is a 100*20 hollow array, with one hundred firecrackers in each of the four corners, and one hundred firecrackers from Long Xiaoshi in the middle, as well as captured and captured, and the captives are between the pikemen and firecrackers in the inner layer, responsible for carrying supplies.

And He Jinlong led all the cavalry to roam around the large phalanx.

It was the second day after the first day of heavy snowfall, and a thin layer of ice had formed between the ground and the snow layer, which was naturally all broken under the trampling of people and horses, and as a large number of people and horses trampled on it, the earth, ice, and snow were mixed together, and everywhere was slippery.

Zhang Kefan's so-called combat experience in this terrain is nothing more than wrapping the hooves of the war horse with hay and strips of cloth, unlike others, he will wrap a strip of cloth on the outside of the hay, so that the resistance will be greater, Rao is so, compared with the dry ground, the speed of the horse is not fast.

It didn't take long for Zu Dabi and Zhang Kefan's men and horses to meet He Jinlong and Bai Wenxuan.
