In the face of Shu Ji's words, Deng Fan didn't say anything and remained silent. Shu Ji didn't continue to say anything about this, and gently patted Deng Fan's shoulder,

"This time, you will command the battle, your ability generals have recognized it, and I will not raise any objections."

After speaking, Shu Ji turned around and went to gather the cavalry, leaving Deng Fan alone looking at the Yellow River in the cold wind.

Shu Ji guessed correctly, this time it was not Deng Fan's intention to figure out Ma Tan, it was Deng Fan who used Ma Tan's banner to deceive the military power.

Because his plan was a bit too risky, not even much more conservative than Ma Tan's own plan. In addition, many of the bases for his plan were investigated by himself, and it was likely that he would not be accepted by Zhang He and others.

But Deng Fan had no other way, if he didn't do this, he still had to fight head-on as a general, following Zhang He and other generals. And his own force value is not high, neither can he take the flag first like Ma Yan, nor can he charge head-on like Jiang Wei.

So staying on the front, he will definitely not be able to make any great achievements, he can only make merit in the mix. This is unacceptable for Deng Fan, and he also wants to make a great contribution to make his official position go further!

Of course, there is also the reason why Jiang Wei, who is also from the bottom of Cao Wei, has become a permanent lieutenant and was appointed by Ma Jian to go to the north to lead the troops to fight alone.

So, Deng Fan thought carefully this time and cheated out the military power to complete his plan.

Shu Ji's acquiescence gave Deng Fan a little confidence, at least his risky move was recognized. In this case, there is no need for him to hide it, and just give it a bold go.

Deng Fan and Shuji and the others took 4,000 foot riders to camp on the banks of the Yellow River, slowly waiting for the weather changes expected by Deng Fan.

From the north of the Hetao Plain, the north-south section of the Yellow River from Yinshan to Tongguan is the fastest area of the entire Yellow River. The area is densely packed with reefs and the water is mixed with a lot of sediment, and most of the area is not suitable for boats.

For this stretch of thousands of miles, there are only three ferries available. They are Pubanjin and Fenglingdu in the south and Longmendu in the north.

However, the two ferries in the south were heavily guarded by the Wei army, and the Longmen ferry in the north was thousands of miles away. Therefore, judging from the ferry port alone, there is basically no possibility for the Han army to smuggle across the Yellow River.

Because of this, the Wei army basically did not fortify north of Pubanjin.

But Deng Fan, who has been working in the military town of Tuntian in Beidi County for two years, already knows the climate in the north better. Now that it is November, the north is about to cool down significantly, and in this case, there is a high probability that the river will freeze and freeze, giving the tribe the possibility of stepping on the ice.

This is very risky, but Deng Fan decided to take a gamble.

Deng Fan led his troops to settle down on the bank of this river, and he waited for more than ten days. As Deng Fan expected, the temperature began to cool down rapidly, and heavy snow began to fall on the 10th.

Finally, on the thirteenth day of Deng Fan's waiting, the Yellow River quickly froze. At this time, the banks of the Yellow River were gradually covered with heavy snow, and the time was ripe for the soldiers to step on the ice.

In this regard, Deng Fan made a decision immediately, and the whole army wore white robes and quickly stepped on the ice. The Han soldiers, including 1,000 cavalrymen, quickly got dressed and began to venture across the Yellow River.

The specific process is not much simpler than smuggling Yinping, and some unlucky soldiers fell directly into the water on the way. In the end, under the luck of Dafu Dabao, 4,000 Han soldiers crossed the Yellow River extremely dangerously.

However, the smuggling of the Yellow River does not mean that it is over. Deng Fan quickly deployed Shu Ji with 1,000 cavalry, and quickly moved south along the river with great fanfare, directly attacking Pubanjin.

Don't seek to make meritorious achievements, just attract the attention of the Wei army. And Deng Fan himself led 3,000 foot soldiers, dressed in white robes, and directly forced the army to cross Zhongtiao Mountain, and attacked the empty Pubanjin garrison.

The whole plan was extremely risky, and the slightest mistake would have to kill the whole army on the east bank of the Yellow River. From this point on, Shu Ji was also more sure that this was definitely not what General Kamui meant.

Such a risky move, if Ma Tan knew about it, would it be Deng Fan's turn to command the troops? He would definitely come by himself and personally lead the troops to take such an adventure.

…………

At the same time, Ma Yan outside Huayin City shivered violently, and felt a huge chill just like Liu Yin Fei Yi at the beginning.

It felt as if something important had been snatched away. It's very uncomfortable, but I don't know what was robbed.

Shouldn't it be, what riskier move could be more risky than a thousand people blocking twenty or thirty thousand people?

No way! When pigs fly!

In November, the defenders of Puban County, Hedong County, were preparing to start a day of fishing. Theoretically, although it is less than a hundred miles away from the front line, there is the Yellow River, and there will be no Han army anyway.

But when they were about to open the city gate and start their posts, the defenders at the head of the city suddenly noticed that the smoke and snow were rising in the distance, and a group of soldiers and horses were rushing from a distance.

At first, the Wei army didn't take it to heart, but when it was the reinforcements from Bingzhou. But when the distance was a little closer, the Wei soldiers saw clearly that this group of soldiers and horses turned out to be a red banner!

"It's the Shu army!"

"How is that possible! How did the Shu army come from the north? ”

"Could it be that the annexation state has already fallen? We're going to be finished! ”

For a time, Puban County was in chaos, a group of soldiers hurriedly closed the city gate, and everyone went to the city head to guard.

I saw that the Han army stopped a few miles away, and a general with a white horse and white robe rode his horse and shouted at the city,

"I am Shu Jiye, the captain of Changshui of the Han Dynasty, and I am here with the general of the Che Cavalry on the Eastern Expedition, so I will open the door and surrender as soon as possible! If you don't come to your senses, after the city is broken, all the bureaucrats involved in the resistance will die! ”

"What? Ma Tan is also here? The guard of Puban County was shocked when he heard this, and looked at the snow and mist flying in the distance, and at first glance, it looked like the army had been killed. So without saying a word, he urgently asked for help from the rear, and sent people to see the big clans living in the city.

Ma Yan's reputation is very big, and at this moment, I heard that many big families in Guanzhong are happy to welcome the king. Although he is not in the Guanzhong range here, the ghost knows what these big clans think.

It's better to be vigilant.

The appearance of the Shuji Belt on the first line of Pubanjin quickly aroused a high degree of vigilance in the southern part of Pubanjin.

Pubanjin's defender was a close confidant of Chen Tai, and he also participated in the defeat of Wuzhangyuan. So when I heard that the Shu army had been found in Puban County, it was said that Ma Jian was also there, and he quickly responded to the stress.

"Huayin is fake, Ma Yan's real purpose is to attack the east and west, and their real plan is to surround General Chen in Linjin!"

"We can't let them get away with it! Now all the active ones are giving me support for Puban County! ”

At the same time, Deng Fan also took 3,000 soldiers dressed in white cloth and winter clothes, risked death to enter Zhongtiao Mountain, and began his big gamble!
