……

It was night, and the water of the Bianhe River moved without wind.

A group of more than 20 warships from Bianzhou rowed the water curtain, and slowly walked, a small boat that went ahead turned back, and the soldiers who returned from exploring the road looked slightly frightened.

"Hu Thorn History, thirty miles ahead, dozens of warships have been found!"

Hu Ming, who was standing on the bow of the boat in armor, was shocked when he heard this.

The generals beside him were also surprised.

"Xu Zhengye, they attacked so quickly?!"

"That's not right...... How could it be so fast! ”

"Can you see the flag on the ship?!" Hu Ling kept a trace of composure and asked in a calm voice: "Are you sure it's the warship of the Xu Clan's rebellious army?" ”

The soldier hurriedly replied: "They have not lit the lamp on the ship, and they can't see the battle flag clearly!" ”

But coming from the south, it was a warship, besides Xu Zhengye, who else could it be?

A military general looked up at the night, there were no stars and no moon tonight, and it was pitch black all around, and he couldn't help frowning: "No lights have been lit...... So how are they going to sail at night? ”

"I didn't sail, I just docked at the shore!" Xiao Bing said: "After the subordinates approached, they barely found their traces, and after a rough count, I saw dozens of warships...... The subordinates did not dare to come closer to take a closer look, lest they were alarmed and could not come back to report the news! ”

Several generals glanced at each other, both shocked and confused, this matter was undoubtedly too strange, revealing strange things everywhere.

"Lord Thorn Shi......" Several people subconsciously looked at Hu Ling.

Hu Ling looked at the night ahead: "Are you sure you haven't been alarmed?" ”

As he spoke, he raised his hand and pressed the saber at his waist, his eyes vigilant and vigilant.

Several people looked with him, including the soldier.

Hu Ling suddenly pulled out his sword: "Stop the boat, be on guard!" ”

Immediately, the crowd changed color, and their swords were ready to fight, and the crossbowmen on the ship were immediately on alert.

A cloud of fluorescence appeared ahead, and as it got closer, it could be seen that a small boat with a light on its bow was approaching it.

Although the boat is small, there is a handsome flag, and everyone looks closely, only to see that there is a big "Xiao" character on the flag.

Resemble?

The current coach surnamed Xiao is nothing more than just one Xiao Min!

But how could Xiao Min's soldiers cross Xu Zhengye's army and appear on the Bianhe River?

This is even more strange and unbelievable than Xu Zhengye's rapid journey.

But Hu Ling immediately raised his hand and signaled to four times, don't act rashly.

"Lord Thorn Shi, beware of deception!" A military general held a sword in front of Hu Ling.

At this time, a loud shout came from the small boat: "Dare to ask the defenders of Bianzhou ahead!" ”

It was a woman's voice!

Hu Ling frowned and replied, "Exactly!" Who is your honor? ”

"I'm General Ning Yuan's subordinate!" As the woman replied in a loud voice, the boat came closer, and the woman's voice became clearer: "My general would like to invite you to come and talk about it!" ”

“…… General Ning Yuan? A general's eyes widened: "That Chang family girl?!" ”

This Ning Yuan general followed Xiao Min on the march, so he was on the same page as the "Xiao" flag, but it was still that question, how could they appear here?

Everyone was still in doubt, only to see a tall figure on the small boat squeezing onto the bow of the boat: "Our temple ...... Our general carp boiled a very delicious tea, and also baked baked cakes, the meat filling, but fragrant! ”

Speaking of this, I couldn't help but swallow my saliva before I said again: "I have come to invite you to be a guest!" ”

This innocent and special words made Hu Ling suddenly raise his eyebrows when he heard the sound, looked at it fixedly, and couldn't help but show surprise: "...... Point General?! ”

Ah Dian's curiosity stretched his head: "Do you recognize me?" ”

After confirming the person who came, Hu Ling showed respect on his face, raised his hand and saluted Ah Dian: "Assassinate Shi Hu Ling in Xia Bianzhou!" ”

More than ten years ago, when he was just a small county official, he had the privilege of meeting the first prince and his subordinates, and this very special general Ah Dian made him particularly impressed.

As the small boat carrying the shepherd's cabbage and Ah Dian came to the front, Hu Yu decided to go and see him after discussing it in a low voice left and right.

This general is innocent by nature, and it is impossible for someone to coerce him into blackmailing him.

And if it is the enemy army of the Xu family, relying on the advantage of troops, just kill it, why bother with it?

Some generals were still not at ease, and when they saw that they couldn't be persuaded to persuade them, they could only insist: "...... Let your subordinates escort Master Thorn with you! ”

Hu Ling did not refuse again, ordered two military generals, and a group of personal guards, and followed the small boat.

Sure enough, as the soldier who explored the way in front of him said, after traveling thirty miles, dozens of warships were docked on the side of the river.

But contrary to what the soldier had said, the lights were now on all the ships.

"Great, it's finally time to light the lights!" Ah Dian cheered.

This is the first time in the month and a half that they have lit up at night.

The lady smiled: "The girl said, as soon as the Bianzhou defenders arrive, we can blatantly light the lights!" ”

Hu Ling's eyes were thoughtful when he heard this.

Those ships did not have the flag of the commander, but they were closer, and Hu Ling could identify them, and these were mostly the warships of the Shouzhou and Gwangju governments.

He was a little more determined, but still vigilant.

Until his boat stopped, on the tallest building boat he had seen, there was a figure of a young girl walking with her hands in her hands, leading the soldiers down from the second floor.

The two boats were connected, Hu Ling took people on the building boat, and by the lights around, he saw that the girl who came with the people was only seventeen or eighteen years old, the same age as his eldest daughter, no powder, no skirt beads, only a crow-blue sleeved robe, and a good face that could not be ignored.

In addition, the momentum between the other party's walks inexplicably made him think of ......

After the girl came and stood still, she raised her hand and saluted them: "In Xia Chang Suining, I have seen Hu Tingshi and the generals. ”

She was holding an object in her hand, and Hu Ling came back to her senses, so that people took it and looked at it, only to see that it was her general token.

After confirming his identity, Hu Ling immediately returned the salute: "It turns out that it is really General Ning Yuan here...... I'm waiting for a long time to come! ”

And no matter what he thought of this young lady general with mixed reviews, just saying that the other party appeared here now might be a turning point for them in Bianzhou, and he naturally had to show an attitude of valuing courtesy.

Chang Suining invited them to talk to each other in the cabin, and instructed his subordinates: "Please ask Coach Xiao to come here." ”

"Yes!"

Hu Ling and the others were even more surprised when they heard this-General Xiao, as the commander, actually came in person?

When Xiao Min heard the news, he quickly brought someone over from another warship, and after the two sides saluted, Shi Cai sat down and spoke one after another.

Hu Ling was still surprised in his heart, and it was inevitable to ask first: "When did Commander Xiao and General Ning Yuan bring people here?" ”

When he asked, he looked at Xiao Min.

However, Xiao Min looked at the girl sitting cross-legged on the side.

"Half a month ago." Chang Sui Ning answered.

"Half a month ago?!" A military general beside Hu Ling was startled and popped out a local dialect: "I'm obedient!" ”

Arrived half a month ago? How is this possible?

"It was half a month ago, indeed." Chang Sui Ning said: "As early as the end of the first month, at the beginning of Xu Zhengye's 30,000 soldiers and horses to attack Huainan Road, we had already set off. ”

She explained: "As early as before the Shangyuan Festival, the warships had been mobilized, and then we set off from Shouzhou Wharf and traveled along the Huaishui River to the place where the Huaishui and Bianshui meet, and then diverted to Bianshui and went north all the way to here. ”

The Huaishui area has always been under their own control, and the junction with Bianshui is still far from Yangzhou.

And at that time, Xu Zhengye ordered Ge Cha and Ge Zhiqing to send troops to attack Shouzhou, and they sent Chu Xing to lead the troops to meet the battle, just under the cover of Chu Xing and others' marching, they avoided the supervision of Xu's army.

While Xu Zhengye borrowed troops to attack the west, she also borrowed the move to meet the battle "Darkness Chen Cang".

After successfully getting on the Bianshui, he completely stayed away from the sight of the Xu army.

The places that may be alarmed along the way, including Shouzhou and Gwangju, have been dotted in advance, and the matter of the march is to be secret, and ordinary people dare not say much for fear of getting into trouble.

Then it rained heavily, and the water was hazy, which better concealed their tracks.

But Chang Suining, who arrived first, didn't expect that the rain would be nearly ten days at once, dragging down the march of Xu Zhengye, who was parallel to the land and water roads in the rear.

The pros and cons of this matter were mixed, and she had more than half a month of training time, and the soldiers' energy and physical strength were also well recovered.

But at the same time, it is also difficult to hide the traces for a long time, and it is necessary to keep an eye on the places at all times, so as not to leak out and expose the ambush plan.

"We also often order the navy to patrol Bianzhou...... I never noticed the traces of Commander Xiao and General Ning Yuan! A military general beside Hu Ling still had a look of surprise on his face.

"Because General Ning Yuan has set up sentinels in all river sections." Xiao Min said: "Whenever the Bianzhou Navy patrols nearby, we will temporarily change the hiding place to avoid exposure. ”

The military general couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and subconsciously looked at Chang Suining, avoiding the sight of the patrolling sailors every time, which was not a simple matter.

Hu Ling couldn't help asking: "Dare to ask Coach Xiao, how many soldiers and horses have lurked here this time?" ”

Xiao Min: "Seventy thousand." ”

"Seventy thousand!" The military general wanted to call "obedient" again, according to this, it was far more than these dozens of warships nearby!

It's even more difficult to hide!

Hu Ling was also stunned, as the assassin of Bianzhou, he didn't know that there were 70,000 troops hidden on the Bianshui River, and it had been half a month!

Of course, the main river of Bianshui is more than 1,000 miles long, and it is naturally impossible to do everything when patrolling, but it is still incredible that the other party can quietly lurk here for half a month.

And from Xiao Min's words, it is not difficult to hear that all this seems to be commanded by this Ning Yuan general.

Hu Ling couldn't help but ask: "General Ning Yuan is very familiar with the waters of the Bianshui River and the way of water warfare?" ”

These troops sent from the Beijing Division are not sailors, if there are no people who are proficient in commanding water operations, and they go on the wide water, let alone hide their traces, I am afraid that they will not even be able to distinguish the direction!

"Before I came, I had seen a map of the waters of Bianshui." Chang Suining smiled: "In addition, I like to read military books very much. ”

Hu Ling's face changed for a while: "......"

No, to put it bluntly, isn't it just on paper?

Can today's young people talk so well on paper? Is this really reasonable?

When he was still suspicious, he only heard Ah Dian ask curiously: "Our Ah Carp is the reincarnation of the star, you are in Bianzhou, haven't you heard of it?" ”

Hu Ling: "I've heard ...... a little"

However, it is better to see than to hear......

He really opened his eyes this time.

It turns out that experience and hard work are really not worth mentioning in the face of talent, right?

"I didn't dare to reveal my whereabouts to the Bianzhou Navy before, because I was afraid of frightening the enemy." Chang Suining continued the topic: "Today, I know that Bianzhou sent troops to meet the enemy, and I explained this matter. ”

Hu Ling nodded.

Then, he heard the other party say: "With us here to intercept Xu Zhengye's army, you can return to Bianzhou to defend the city with peace of mind." ”

Hu Ling and the others were stunned when they heard this: "General Ning Yuan...... Let me wait to get back to the city? ”

"Yes." Chang Suining looked at them and said: "Xu Zhengye came here, half of it was because of his ambition to covet Luoyang, and the other half was deliberately provoked by me. ”

She finally said: "It's just that I still have to bother Hu Tingshi to leave the Bianzhou military flag and borrow it from me to use it so as to confuse Xu Zhengye's sight." ”

Hu Ling and the others fell silent in an accident.

Defending the city required troops, so they left 20,000 soldiers to stay in Bianzhou, and led 10,000 soldiers who were proficient in water warfare to meet the enemy.

10,000 against 100,000, this is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg, but in the face of Xu Zhengye's army, if Bianzhou has no response, the court will be held accountable.

On this trip, it is not an exaggeration to say that they have a heart of death.

But in just half an hour, the situation suddenly changed drastically, and they were suddenly dragged behind by people from "dying people" to protect them from danger.

This change caught them off guard.

After a long time, Hu Ling suddenly clenched his fists and looked at Chang Suining: "General Ning Yuan's words are wrong, everyone will be punished for the chaos and thieves, and the thieves will raise troops, if they are not removed, the world will be uneven, whether it is Bianzhou or Yangzhou, they are all Dasheng land, how can we talk about the disaster without vain?" At the moment of the great enemy, General Ning Yuan and his subordinates are also Dasheng generals, how can there be a reason to live behind General Ning Yuan and seek their own safety? ”

As he spoke, he also looked at Xiao Min: "The two generals led 70,000 troops here, but there are more than 100,000 people under Xu Zhengye, and we have 10,000 soldiers, if we stay and fight together, it will increase the chances of victory!" ”

As he spoke, he suddenly got up and clenched his fists heavily: "Hu is willing to stay and fight the enemy with the two generals!" ”

To tell the truth, on the way here, he still had sadness and resentment in his heart, and he was unfair for himself and Bianzhou.

But at this moment, in the face of such a "paper talking" little general, he suddenly changed from "resentment" to "wish".

The other party treats him with sincerity and righteousness first, and he is naturally willing to exchange it for sincerity.

And the blood and righteousness in people's hearts will also be ignited by inspiration.

The generals beside him also got up, and their eyes subconsciously fell on the girl who was sitting.

"We are willing to fight the enemy together with the two generals!"

"We've wanted to fight these burning, killing and looting thieves!"

"Please two generals!"

“……”

In the face of their insistence, Xiao Min looked at Chang Suining, who was sitting upright.

After a moment, Chang Suining raised his hand and said with a smile: "Then please sit down and discuss the strategy against the enemy." ”

……

Behind a screen, Yao Ran, who was holding a pen and writing, quietly looked at the people who were discussing the matter.

She could see that although everyone was sitting around, only the lady of the Chang family was the center of everyone in the true sense.

But she also agrees that Chang Niangzi deserves to be surrounded like this, and these heartfelt respect and support are not for no reason, but Chang Niangzi won with ability and sincerity.

Such a lady is rare in the world.

At this moment, Yao Ran felt from the bottom of his heart that the statement of the stars was not an exaggeration.

Maybe it's really the savior?

Although ordinary people can't become a character like Chang Niangzi, it is great luck to be able to follow such a character.

Her luck was good.

Yao Ran continued to write, carefully jotting down everyone's conversations, she had a lot to learn.

……

The news that Bianzhou Assassin Shi led his army to meet Xu Zhengye soon reached the ears of Li Xian outside Luoyang City.

"10,000 soldiers to meet the enemy?" Li Xian sighed lightly: "But the mantis arm is a car, and I can't support it for two days." ”

The military advisor pondered and said, "There are 20,000 defenders left in Bianzhou City, and they should be able to resist for a while......

"Although I am ordered to guard Luoyang, it is not good to watch the city of Bianzhou break." Li Xian's tone was pitying: "When they really can't hold it, even if I risk leaving Luoyang without permission, I will go to help." ”

When others are exhausted, he appears as a hero to save the world and turn the tide...... Just like Cui Jing and Chang Kuo who rushed to the south back then.

Li Xian took the fragrant tea from the woman in blue on the side and hid the sarcasm in his eyes.

A short time later, a personal soldier quickly stepped into the tent.

"General Qiyu, the deputy general surnamed Yu, led a team of 1,000 people and went out of the camp to patrol."

Li Xian raised his eyebrows: "Let them be." ”

These Xuance troops were very dissatisfied with his reluctance to send troops to aid Bianzhou, and under his deliberate concealment, they did not know the details of Cui Jing's accident, and they inquired about Cui Jing's whereabouts openly and secretly every day, and they were very anxious.

He was faithful.

Because of the above two reasons, these people did not treat him as a temporary commander with a very respectful attitude, and often arranged such patrols on their own without his permission, which could be regarded as expressing dissatisfaction in disguise.

He was not angry because of this, as long as he didn't touch the bottom line, everything would go with them, anyway, Cui Jing was dead, and the sage's intention was to let him take over the Xuan Ce Army in the future......

Time is still long, he has a lot of patience, he will write down what he should note, and he will take his time in the future.

One day, he will tame the fierce beast of the Xuan Ce Army into obedience - you must know that in this world, Cui Jing is not the only one who is good at "taming beasts".

……

The adjutant general surnamed Yu led a thousand cavalry out of the barracks and headed all the way east.

"General Yu...... Are we going to Bianzhou? One of the lieutenants who accompanied him couldn't help but ask.

"It's in the direction of Bianzhou, but not to Bianzhou." Vice General Yu said: "We want to bypass Bianzhou!" ”

Where is that going?

"But you're going to find General Yuanxiang?"

During these days, they had been in contact with Yuan Xiang from time to time, but Yuan Xiang did not reveal Chang Suining's plans to them.

"It's not." Vice General Yu suddenly turned his head and smiled at him: "Just follow me!" ”

This extremely happy and uplifting smile made the captain stunned for a moment, and then raised his eyebrows suddenly, could it be ......

"Drive!"

Vice Admiral Yu shouted and drove the horse faster.

Thousands of Xuance cavalry galloped away, and the horses' hooves shook up half-dried mud spots.

……

On the other side, Chang Suining and Xiao Min had ordered the assembly of warships and 80,000 troops.

The orderly warships moved slowly, the huge sails were pulled high, and the twenty warships in front were all hoisted with the battle flag of the word "Bian", waving in the wind.

Chang Sui Ning stood above the boat, looking at the misty water floating in front of him.

She finally invited the "distinguished guest" who came to the door, and it was time to greet her.

According to the estimated hour, they will "greet" Xu Zhengye's army in the second half of the night.

It is all right to wait for your work in the same place, but if you wait in the same place, you need to wait until tomorrow.

And the battle of the raid, which is carried out at night, can give full play to the advantage.

Therefore, Chang Suining chose to go both ways.

The warship cut through the water curtain, and the tall sails were waving in the wind, as if they were covering the sky and the sun, prompting the sky to quickly darken.

As we moved forward, the arrangement of the ships began to change.

Slowly, the twenty warships flying the military flag with the word "Bian" gradually opened up just the right distance from the rear, and the lights were lit inside and outside the cabin.

The rest of the warships seemed to disappear into the night without a sound.

……

"Report!"

"Twenty miles ahead, I found the traces of the Bianzhou Navy Army!"

On the Xu army's warship, the military general beside Xu Zhengye heard the latest movement from the front, and immediately asked, "How many people are coming?" ”

"Twenty warships, or more than 10,000 people!"

This sentence made the generals around Xu Zhengye laugh.

"More than 10,000 people dare to come forward to die, this Bianzhou Navy Army, all of them are elite sailors!"

"That's a mistake, the total number of defenders in Bianzhou is only 30,000, how many people do you expect them to send to intercept?"

"Also, Li Xian refuses to send troops to rescue them, they always have to leave people to guard the city!"

"It seems that they have a mortal heart, and if so, then follow their wishes!"

"Kill these praying mantis blocking the way tonight, and after two days of fast travel, you can take Bianzhou City!"

"Although Bianzhou is not as good as Luoyang, it is also a prosperous and wealthy place...... When our brothers enter the city, don't worry about anything else, go to the biggest flower building to open your eyes first! ”

"Good!"

Listening to the teasing of his subordinates, Xu Zhengye said: "Don't underestimate the enemy." ”

But he did not hesitate, and ordered: "Go on, keep all ships on guard, and prepare to meet the enemy!" ”

Those generals also immediately restrained their joking descriptions, and responded solemnly: "Yes! ”

As the night rose, the increasingly thick killing machine began to fill the surging water.
