Gao Huan learned that Yuwentai pulled out the camp, but instead of returning to the division, but marching eastward, he immediately invited everyone to discuss, at first, Gao Cheng was confused about Yuwentai's intentions, but after ruling out all possibilities, the only remaining option, no matter how bizarre, would be the final answer.

Standing on Yuwentai's position, there was chaos in the rear, if he returned to the division to rescue, the enemy army would inevitably follow, Gao Huan did send Xue Yangu to the west, ambush Yuwentai's way back, just waiting for him to turn back, and attack back and forth.

If it was to fight a decisive battle, the Eastern Wei Dynasty avoided the war again, and could not storm the camp, so it could only force the Eastern Wei to leave the camp.

Since the battlefield is in Guanzhong, apart from Pusaka, there is no option that can make the Gao family father and son unable to sit still.

In the original time and space, during the East-West standoff, there was a very interesting activity, that is, ice chiseling in winter.

In the early days of the separation of the two Wei Dynasty, the east was strong and the west was weak, and every winter, the soldiers of the Western Wei Dynasty would dig open the ice surface of the Yellow River to prevent the Eastern Wei from attacking.

By the time of the Northern Qi and Northern Zhou Dynasty, the situation had changed, the west was strong and the east was weak, so the Northern Qi soldiers had to go to the Yellow River every winter to dig ice to prevent the Northern Zhou from attacking.

Once Yuwentai really let the east go smoothly, dig ice in the Yellow River, burn the pontoon bridge, block the way back, Hedong and Hebei as the foundation of the Gao family, and now it is the emptiest time in ten years, really make him succeed, occupy the Lianghe area, and change homes with the Gao family.

Gao Cheng was not the only one who saw through this, Gao Huan and some of his staff also noticed the hidden crisis, and after discussing with the generals, Gao Huan immediately sent someone to recover Xue Yangu, trying to lead the army to intercept Yuwentai and fight a decisive battle with him in Hexi.

The generals have long been gearing up, and the previous Eastern Wei Dynasty avoided the war, which was nothing more than Gao Cheng's hope to use the news of the rebellion to make the Western Wei and Southern Liang coalition forces chaotic before the battle, not that the generals were afraid.

After receiving Gao Huan's military order, the generals mobilized their troops one after another and followed him out of the camp to chase Yuwentai.

Gao Cheng concentrated the cavalry of various parts of the Gyeonggi army, a total of 10,000 horsemen, and Gao Aocao and Hu Lüguang were divided into charges, and went to delay the speed of Yuwentai's march, while he led Hou Yuan, Liu Feng and the remaining 25,000 foot soldiers of the Gyeonggi army, and 1,000 personal soldiers with his cronies as the vanguard to open the way for Gao Huan's army.

Xue Guyan received Gao Huan's order and immediately pursued the large army, while Gao Aocao and Hu Luguang also caught up with Yuwentai at the confluence of the Luo River and Weishui, and fought with their elite cavalry, causing casualties to each other.

Yuwentai saw that the Gao cavalry was chasing, and there was a sentry cavalry to report that there was an Eastern Wei army across the river in Weibei, so he immediately stopped and ordered his troops to form a formation, waiting for the Eastern Wei army to chase after him, and wanted to fight a decisive battle with it here.

As the vanguard, Gao Cheng was the first to appear, he crossed Weishui in the south, stopped only a few miles away from Yuwentai, covered by Hu Luguang and Gao Aocao's elite cavalry, and formed a formation to wait for Gao Huan's army behind him.

Yuwentai on the opposite side was not lured by Gao Cheng's lone army, and the Western Wei soldiers were waiting for the battle with their backs to Xitong Pass.

Because Tongguan was captured by the Eastern Wei Dynasty, Yuwentai rebuilt a new pass at the site of Tongguan in the later Tang Dynasty, that is, Xitong Pass.

Soon, in addition to the 30,000 Xianbei soldiers who guarded Huayin with Hu Lujin, the Eastern Wei troops successively crossed the Weishui from the ice and confronted the Western Wei with various military formations.

In the Eastern Wei Dynasty, there were 170,000 Hu under Gao Huan and 36,000 under Gao Cheng, totaling 206,000 people.

The Western Wei Dynasty had 48,000 main forces of the Sixth Army, 100,000 state and county soldiers, and 50,000 Shu soldiers under Xiao Ji, totaling 198,000 people.

At the confluence of Weishui and Luohe, the two sides have a total of more than 400,000 soldiers and horses, and the carriages and horses are laid out, and a big war is about to start.

Before the war, the Eastern Wei Dynasty had long been prepared to face off against each other on the frontal battlefield, and even this was their battle plan, and the so-called fan surrender was just to try to gain an advantage.

To this end, Gao Cheng also formulated corresponding tactics, that is, to attack Zhao Gui's army array.

After Yuwentai reformed the military system, he established the eight-pillar system, in addition to himself and the Guangling Wang Yuanxin who was pulled out of the archway and did not interfere in the military power, the remaining six pillars of the general Zhao Gui, Li Hu, Li Bi, Yu Jin, Dugu Xin, Hou Mo Chen Chong each led an army, each army of 8,000 people, that is, the main force of the Western Wei Dynasty six armies.

As the real power pillar of the Independent Unification Army, Zhao Gui's military talent is obviously not worth mentioning compared with his vision of standing in line.

Whether it was the expulsion of Ke Zhu Hunyuan from Qinzhou before, or the Battle of Heqiao and the Battle of Bishan, there are descriptions of Zhao Gui's performance in pulling his hips on the battlefield.

As the general of the Western Wei Dynasty who first advocated the establishment of Yuwentai, Zhao Gui's loyalty to Tara is undoubted, but his tenacity on the battlefield is completely incomparable to that of his colleagues.

Unlike in the TV series, the two armies faced each other, not the whole army pressed on, and rushed to the opponent with their heads covered.

On the contrary, between the two armies, in the open space of several miles, small groups of troops were constantly sent to fight each other.

The two sides fought more than ten battles, from the high tide of the day to the setting of the sun, and each other won and lost.

And Gao Cheng also ordered people to constantly look for the location of Zhao Gui's troops in the skirmishes between the two sides.

Although all the ministries have flags, no one can see well enough to be miles apart, and they can still see clearly what words are embroidered on the flags.

Gao Huan was beheaded and assaulted in the Battle of Pishan, also because a soldier of the Eastern Wei Dynasty violated military law, so he switched to the Western Wei Dynasty in order to escape punishment, and revealed Gao Huan's location to Yuwentai.

Generally speaking, unless it is too ostentatious on the battlefield, it is difficult to find the specific location even if the two armies face each other.

Gao Aocao has always despised Yuwentai, well, or rather, he despises everyone except the Gao family's father and son.

Originally, I wanted to erect a flag and umbrella cover, but was stopped by Gao Cheng, such an act is tantamount to opening a position sharing on the battlefield, even if it does not cause the enemy to behead the action, a rain of arrows hits, and if you are unlucky, you may be lost and shot to death, and the Southern Song Dynasty general Yin Xiaozu is a lesson from the past.

The two sides sent a small force to fight a fierce battle, and after exhaustion, the warring parties retreated one after another, and Gao Cheng immediately found Hu Luguang who had retreated into the formation, and it was he who commanded the Gyeonggi Army to fight against the enemy.

Gao Cheng couldn't wait to ask:

"Can you find Zhao Gui's location?"

The reason why Gao Cheng sent him to fight was precisely because Hu Luguang was known as the governor of the withered capital, and his eyes were naturally sharp, Gao Cheng let him not worry about winning or losing, just pay attention to the position of Zhao Gui's department in the Western Wei Dynasty in the chaotic battle.

And Hu Luguang really did not disappoint Gao Cheng, he replied categorically:

"On the left side of the enemy."

When Gao Cheng learned the news, he immediately beat his horse and shuttled through the formation, wanting to find Gao Huan and tell him the news.

At the same time, Da Xiwu, the general of the Western Wei Dynasty, who had just fought with Hu Luguang, was also reporting to Yuwentai the information he had observed.

It turned out that both sides were using small forces to test and observe the enemy's weak points.

After all, the sentinels of the two armies are not eating dry food, and it is impossible for them to have already set up a battle, and they can still let the other party touch them and observe them closely.
