Zhongshan.

The ground was covered with a layer of light snow, and as far as the eye could see, the city, the woods, and the hills were all covered in white.

Hundreds of war horses were spewing white gas from their mouths and noses, less than three miles outside the city of Lunu.

The black armor stands out in the snow and ice.

Even if there were only three or four hundred horsemen, the Yan army in the city would not be able to hold out.

Zhang Hao and Xu Cheng tried all kinds of methods, but Yan Jun was always indifferent.

"Phew, this Murong Ping Lao Er is determined to be a turtle with a shrunken head!" Zhang Oyster took a bite into the snow.

Xu Chengdao: "Murong Ping is self-aware and does not dare to fight with our army in the field. ”

Two years ago, more than 100,000 Yan troops were still arrogantly heading south, and in just two years, the offensive and defensive momentum has changed.

"Since they don't come out, it's better to select 20,000 elites, lose ten days of food, and raid Jicheng, as long as my army appears under Jicheng, the Yan Kingdom will definitely shake!" Zhang Hao made a bold suggestion.

With 20,000 iron horses in his hands, he can naturally dominate the world.

However, the entire Black Cloud Army is only 25,000 horsemen, and it is impossible to transfer them all to him.

And this proposal is very dangerous.

Jicheng has Murong Ke and his tens of thousands of elites, plus the newly recruited young people, even if they break under Jicheng, it doesn't make much sense.

It used to be easy, but it's not so easy to withdraw again.

Xu Cheng glanced at him, "The decisive battle between the two countries, when it is fought steadily and steadily, the national strength of the Great Liang is superior, why take risks?" Once these 20,000 horses encounter an accident, it will affect the entire battle situation. ”

"So it's so wasted? Wait until Murong Ping dies of old age? "Zhang Oyster is really unwilling.

Xu Cheng looked at the snow-capped Lunu City, don't think about attacking the city in this weather, the tens of thousands of troops in the city can't be captured in a moment.

To this day, Yanguo's strategy is also very clear.

Relying on the strong city to consume the morale of the Black Cloud Army, when the army was tired, Murong Ke, Murong Chui, Murong Ping, plus the Murong Army in Xiangguo City, attacked in all directions, just like when Ran Min was broken.

It's a simple and practical trick.

"You can't go to Jicheng, but you can go to Changshan!" Xu Cheng's horsewhip pointed to the northwest.

The strategic value of Changshan is not as large as that of Zhongshan.

But the victory lies in the lax defense, it is easy to succeed, if the Yan army ignores it, the Black Cloud Army can drive straight into the army and attack Daijun!

The value of Daijun is greater than that of Zhongshan, and it is the gateway to the two states, and at the same time, it can also echo the Tuoba Shiyijian of Yunzhong County.

Zhang Hao's eyes lit up, "Without further ado, the last general should lead 20,000 troops first!" ”

"No, 50,000 horses will take Changshan in one go!" Xu Cheng waved the horsewhip, the war horse was in pain, and rushed out with a "hoop", leaving a clear column of horseshoe prints on the shallow snow.

Immediately, the black army advanced westward.

There are many rivers in the mountains of Changshan, but all of them are frozen, and the Black Cloud Army is unimpeded.

Xu Cheng took his own soldiers to ride horses and shuttle between the soldiers, motivating morale, and personally carried the frostbitten soldiers onto the mule cart, "The sons and daughters insist, there will be thieves to kill when they arrive in Changshan!" ”

"We are waiting to follow King Liang to dominate the world, and we are not even afraid of death, are we still afraid of this wind and snow?" The pawns laughed heartily.

"I only hate that there are too few swallow thieves, not enough for us to cut and kill!" The Black Cloud Soldier is almost fanatical about military exploits.

"Okay, it's worthy of a Chinese man!" Xu Cheng galloped past the crowd.

The Yan army did not fight, but it stimulated the killing intent of the soldiers even more.

In the past two years, the national strength of the Liang State has risen, and the days of the Black Cloud soldiers have become stronger day by day, and the family has fields and slaves, and they do not have to worry about eating and drinking, and many soldiers have found blacksmiths to build weapons and suitable armor, and they have brought their own fur furs, leather shoes, and wolf skin mattresses, and some even prepared strong wine and dried meat for the cold.

After marching for 100 miles in two days, only more than 30 people were left behind, and they were all sent back to the Xiangguo camp by the scouts.

"Report, twenty miles ahead, I found five thousand Yan army foot riders!" Even the scout's voice was tinged with surprise.

"Haha, it's finally time to open meat, the general waits, the last general goes to take the head of the thief!" Zhang Oyster raised his war spear, and the war horse man stood up, and then galloped out.

Two thousand horsemen followed closely behind, and in less than a moment, the white snow was stained red with blood......

The heat rises in the camp of Xiangguo.

Chang Wei transported a large number of briquettes from Yecheng, and no matter how heavy the wind and snow were, he would not feel cold.

In fact, logistical support capability is also combat effectiveness.

For this battle, Li Yue took out all the family funds accumulated in the past few years, used Handan as a grain transit place, and sent Gao Yun to guard it.

"Your Highness, news came from Jiangdong that Yuan Zhen led 10,000 horses to attack Hefei." Lang official Liu Yingdao.

"10,000 people want to break through Hefei?" Li Yue laughed.

Sun Quan raised hundreds of thousands of troops for Hefei, and launched six major wars before and after, but failed to take it.

Why is Yuan Zhen?

However, this should be Jiangdong's symbolic cooperation with Yan State, after all, the two sides are allied.

Liang Yan fought a decisive battle, Jiangdong didn't say it, it was really unreasonable.

Huan Wen had just taken power, and his first task was to pacify the Jiangdong clan and consolidate power, rather than launch a new Northern Expedition.

And Jiangdong did not have the strength to make a large-scale Northern Expedition.

"How is Fu Jian moving?" Don't worry about the south, Li Yue cares about the west.

"Ten days ago, Fu Jian was transferred back to Deng Qiang and Fu Fei, raised 70,000 troops, and attacked Liangzhou." Liu Ying arched his hand.

After Zhang Zuo usurped his nephew's position, he wantonly excluded dissidents and killed the famous general Xie Ai, which caused dissatisfaction among the countrymen and scattered the army.

Li Yue picked a good time to attack Yan State, and Fu Jian was not bad, so he took the opportunity to attack Liangzhou.

Once Liangzhou is taken, Qin's national strength will skyrocket.

"There are so many characters in Guanzhong!" Li Yue couldn't help but sigh.

Without Wang Meng's assistance, Fu Jian's development is not bad.

At least for now, the route is correct, defend the east and attack the west, do not participate in the Kwantung War, establish good relations with the Liang state, and expand westward.

However, even if Liangzhou is taken, it depends on Fu Jian's governance methods.

The internal problems of Di Qin are also not small.

Historically, Fu Jian unified the north and did not solve it, so that after a major defeat, Di and Qin were torn apart.

"Your Royal Highness, good news, the two generals Xu and Zhang raided Changshan in the wind and snow, first Kezan Huang and Gaoyi two cities, and turned to attack Jingcheng, Yan General Fu Yan led the troops to fight, defeated by General Zhang, and General Xu took advantage of the situation to capture Zhending!" Lang Wei Dou Feng opened the tent with a surprised face.

Taking Zhending is equivalent to capturing Changshan County.

"Great goodness!" Li Yue praised it.

Zhang Oyster and Xu Cheng are brave and calm, cooperate with each other and complement each other.

In this way, it is equivalent to tearing a gap in the Yan army.

If Murong Ke left it alone, this army could attack Dai County in the north, enter the annexed state in the west, and go to the east, it could go straight to Shanggu and Yuyang counties and threaten Jicheng.

This big battle is like playing Go, and every piece you drop has the potential to be the key to victory.

Li Yue looked at the east, his gaze seemed to have passed through the wind and snow, and fell on Jicheng......
