Chapter 294: God Doesn't Know Ghosts
He picked up the bedside glass and gulped down.
Then take a deep breath.
But there was still some uncertainty.
Feng Ji thought for a moment, and finally got dressed and came to Ma Yan and Zhang Yi's tent.
"General Ma, General Zhang!"
He screamed several times.
Ma Yan and Zhang Yi replied impatiently,
"Who!"
"It's me!"
The two generals heard Feng Ji's voice, and after a while they opened the curtain of the camp tent and walked out.
"Master Strategist, it's so late, what else do you have to order?"
Mayan yawned, his tone a little impatient.
Zhang Yi also yawned again and again.
"Somehow, I always had a sense of foreboding in my mind.
The two of you should take someone and take a tour around the Yellow River. ”
Feng Ji commanded.
The two looked at each other, and they both couldn't laugh or cry.
"Strategist, you're too worried."
"Yes, the two of us only finished patrolling our defense line this evening, and there is no problem at all."
"It's so late, you better go back to sleep."
Ma Yan and Zhang Yi, you say a word, I say a word.
Feng Ji frowned, and said in a deep voice,
"You are only patrolling our defense line, I will let you patrol along the Yellow River!"
Both of them were stunned, and anger appeared on their faces.
I was woken up in my sleep, and I was going to inspect the Yellow River so late, and I would be angry.
However, Fengji was sent by Yuan Shang to supervise the Yellow River defense line.
Although the two were angry, they could only respond helplessly.
"Yes, Strategist!"
With a belly full of anger, the two of them each ordered a thousand cavalry.
After leaving the gate of the barracks, the two parted ways by the Yellow River, one facing west and the other facing east, roaring away.
Zhang Yi was patrolling the west, and there was nothing along the way except for the sound of the river lapping on the bank.
He had been a few miles away, and there had been no vision.
"General, do we still have to make an inspection?"
Zhang Yi's lieutenant asked.
With the help of the bright moonlight, Zhang Yi glanced at the dark jungle not far away.
He looked down at the rushing river under the cliff at his feet again, and said angrily,
"No more patrols, go back to camp!"
Zhang Yi gave the order, and the 1,000 cavalry troops turned their horses and retreated in the direction they came.
It's just that what Zhang Yi and the others don't know is that in that dense forest,
A chain bridge has been erected.
The dense Huaxiong army is passing through the chain bridge.
When Zhang Yi returned to the barracks, Ma Yan happened to have just returned.
"Returning to the military division, I have patrolled ten miles to the west, and there is nothing unusual."
"I have traveled twelve miles to the east, and there has been no movement."
After listening to the report of the two of them, Feng Ji did not show a relaxed expression.
On the contrary, his brows furrowed again.
Seeing this, Ma Yan snorted,
"Strategist, I think you're too worried."
"Where it is suitable to cross the river, we have a defensive line.
Unless Hua Xiong can fly, how can he cross the river quietly? ”
"yes, let's go back to sleep."
The two said hello to Feng Ji and left the camp.
"This guy can really toss people."
"In the middle of the night, let us go and inspect the edge of the Yellow River. If he thinks of it, why doesn't he go himself? ”
Listening to the voices of the two complaining farther and farther away, Feng Ji smiled bitterly.
Although Ma Yan and Zhang Yi didn't find any situation, for some reason, he became more and more uneasy and nervous in his heart.
He made up his mind that after dawn tomorrow, he would personally lead the men and horses to carefully inspect the circle.
With such a thought, Feng Ji lay in bed in a daze for half the night.
At dawn, he got up again.
When Feng Ji was washing his face, he suddenly noticed that something was wrong.
The calm water surface in the copper basin began to ripple.
Feng Ji was stunned for a moment, but he also felt that the earth was trembling.
It's as if there are thousands of troops running wild!
Not good!
Feng Ji's complexion changed.
He didn't bother to wipe the water from his face, and ran out of the tent.
I happened to meet a panicked herald.
"Strategist, no, the enemy has appeared in the west!"
Feng Ji's heart sank, and he hurriedly asked,
"How many are there?"
"The light is not good, but preliminary estimates show that there are at least 20,000 people!"
The herald's answer made Feng Ji's face change.
Without a hint of warning, 20,000 people appeared on the north bank of the Yellow River?
How is this possible?
Feng Ji took a deep breath, "Take me to see the situation!" ”
Led by the herald, he came to the barracks.
After climbing the watchtower, Feng Ji looked forward and suddenly gasped.
At this moment, the sky is bright, and you can see very clearly,
The dense army was gathered not far away, and it was eyeing Feng Ji's side.
A large flag embroidered with the word "Hua" was held high.
Feng Ji's eyes were dark, and he almost fainted.
How much is this Nima more than 20,000 people? At least 30,000 horses!
At this moment, Ma Yan and Zhang Yi, who heard the movement, were also dressed neatly and rushed over in a panic.
"Strategist, what's wrong?"
"See for yourselves!"
Feng Ji's face was pale.
The two of them glanced forward, and they both gasped.
The two of them couldn't believe their eyes.
"This ...... This...... How did Huaxiong's 30,000 horses appear? ”
The two were dumbfounded.
"You ask me, I want to ask you!
Zhang Yi, these 30,000 enemy troops appeared from the west, and you were there last night, right? ”
Feng Ji lowered his voice and asked angrily.
"This ...... This ......"
Zhang Yi was hesitant and didn't know how to answer.
Seeing this, Ma Yan on the side hurriedly played a round road,
"Strategist, this is not the time to be held accountable, so let's hurry up and think of countermeasures."
Feng Ji also knew in his heart that it was not suitable to settle accounts with Zhang Yi now.
He snorted coldly, "I'm holding you accountable when I turn around." Mayan listens to orders! ”
"The last general!"
Mayan arched.
"You immediately give an order to let all the defenders on the side of the Yellow River withdraw."
"Yes, Strategist!"
Mayan immediately called one of his generals and gave him some orders, and then the man walked away quickly.
According to the information received, Huaxiong has 100,000 horses.
Although Fengji only had 50,000 horses, it had the Yellow River moat as a line of defense.
So he was very confident that Huaxiong would not be allowed to cross the Yellow River.
He first arranged 30,000 horses to build a defensive line along the Yellow River.
Another 20,000 men were stationed in the barracks, ready to be called.
It's just that he didn't expect that Huaxiong's army would be able to appear on the north shore unconsciously.
This completely disrupted Feng Ji's deployment. He had to hurry up and give the order for the troops on the banks of the Yellow River to withdraw.
But even so, with 50,000 against 100,000, Feng Ji's heart was full of nervousness and uneasiness.
"Military Division, why didn't Hua Xiong attack for a long time?"
Mayan asked with a frown.
"I don't know."
Feng Ji shook his head, and his eyes were also puzzled.
According to common sense, Hua Xiong should have launched a direct attack and caught them off guard.
