Chapter 64: Greeting the Friendly Army

The next day, Xiao Nan came to the barracks again with Chu Yunfei, but today he did not train, but carried out a comprehensive defense.

There are a total of 10 banners in the Tanzhou Military Division, which are named red, orange, yellow, green, green, blue, blue, purple, black, white, and gray.

There are eight city gates in Tanzhou City, eight traffic arteries start from Tanzhou and pass through the city gate to all directions, due north Xuanwu Gate, due south Zhuque Gate, due east Chaoyang Gate, due west Yongning Gate, northwest Shangwu Gate, southwest Wenchang Gate, Northeast Shangde Gate, southeast Shangqin Gate. Each gate has a commander and a thousand soldiers, and it is under the control of the commander of the defense area.

Tanzhou City has ten major defense areas, and the eight banners outside the city have jurisdiction over eight defense areas, guarding the periphery of eight city gates. The two flags in the city have jurisdiction over the two defense areas in the south and north of the city, and they are in the center. The eight city gate commanders belong to the Eight Banners outside the city, in fact, the commander of the thousand commanders led the battalion to change the defense, and it was changed on March 1.

Xiao Nan led his troops to the defense area and first inspected the terrain and topography of the entire defense area, the number of troops deployed, and the garrisons and outposts of each barracks.

To the north of the defense area is the Yunshan Mountain Range, which extends many branches and winds to the south. The Chu River is in place according to the mountain, rushing out from the cloud mountain, and when it arrives in Tanzhou, it has become a climate, five miles wide, and the waves are turbulent. Between the branches that wind southward from Yunshan, along a three-long and wide stone slab official road, there are villages and market towns one after another. The Yellow Banner soldiers led by Xiao Nan were deployed at the foot of the Yunshan branch, and to the south of the defense area, there were wildernesses and villages, and there was no danger to defend.

At the same time, he also saw the deployment of the northern defense area and the western defense area, and secretly shook his head in his heart, so that the defense can maintain public order in Tanzhou in peacetime, but he is afraid that he will not be able to deal with the enemy when he really fights it, and the force is too scattered, and it is easy to be broken by the enemy.

The north of Tanzhou is a branch of Yunshan Hushan, and the Chu River surrounds the city, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Unless the north side is an army composed of martial arts masters, it is impossible to cross the Yunshan Heavenly Barrier. There are only a few important roads that ordinary people can pass through in the entire Yunshan Mountain Range, and they are all heavily guarded by the Yunshan Military Region, so if the Japanese really want to fight, they can only fight from the eastern, southeastern, and southern directions, and the difficulty in the other directions is too great and almost impossible, and it is enough to send a battalion of troops to carry out the necessary defense. However, this time the king of Xiangjun sent troops, but he was transferred from Xiangjun Kyushu, the northwest of Tanzhou is Yizhou, and Zhao Jingzhi, the governor of Yizhou, is also a great general, who has built the Yizhou military subdivision into a very strong one, and is Li Yunlong's hardcore friend. But for some reason, this time he listened to the words of the king of Xiangjun, and even led an army of 50,000 to encircle and suppress Tanzhou, so the pressure on the northwest defense area of the Yellow Banner led by Xiao Yan was huge.

After inspecting the defense area, Xiao Nan summoned ten commanders to discuss the matter, and the ten commanders all knew that Zhao Jingzhi and Li Yunlong's hardcore relationship was a die-hard party, so they didn't care, guessing that Zhao Jingzhi, the old fox, was just here to make a show and coax the king of Xiangjun.

The key to whether Commander Li Yunlong can smoothly take over the military power of the Xiangjun Military Region depends on whether Zhao Jingzhi and his really powerful old fox branch will support them? They are not necessarily here to encircle and suppress us, but in the future, we must let them listen to Commander Li's words, this battle must be fought, and it must be won, and they will be convinced! Everyone, I have always been a villain before a gentleman, and ugly words are ahead, if this battle is won, you will all have benefits! If you lose, my head will fall to the ground, and before my head lands, let you fall to the ground one by one!"

Seeing that Xiao Nan was serious, the ten commanders looked at each other one by one, and they didn't dare to come out, they really wanted 10,000 people to fight 50,000 people, and it was Zhao Jingzhi's army, and everyone couldn't help but shudder in their hearts.

Who knew that Xiao Yan suddenly turned his face and smiled: "Now they have 50,000 people, and we only have 10,000 people, tell me, how to fight this battle to win?"

The captains are all old sparrows who have experienced the wind and waves, and they all play haha one by one, and they look like they are enough, and then they all say that they listen to the captains. Two of them even made up their minds in their hearts: "You hairy kid loves to fool around, I won't follow you to death! If something is really wrong, if you can't win the fight, you can quickly pull your feet and run away." "

Xiao Yan saw that this group of oilers obviously wanted to see their jokes, and they were not annoyed, and asked, "Where are Zhao Jingzhi's soldiers and horses?"

One of the commanders replied: "There is still a day and a half to go, and it is estimated that we will be there tomorrow at noon." "

Xiao Yan said to the commander of the cavalry battalion, You Sheng: "Today you set off with the cavalry battalion and went to meet Governor Zhao!"

You Sheng was startled and said, "Didn't you say that we must fight, why did you go to meet them?"

Xiao Nan smiled and said: "Of course you have to greet it, you have to welcome it well! You come here with your ears, and I will teach you how to greet friendly troops!"

You Sheng walked down the aisle and leaned forward, Xiao Yan gave such and such an order, You Sheng listened, smiled, and took the order.

Then Xiao Nan called the other commanders to him one by one, and gave orders to everyone, and everyone received the orders one by one and returned to the camp for scheduling.

Zhao Jingzhi received the edict of the king of Xiangjun to encircle and suppress Li Yunlong, so he quickly ordered the officers and soldiers of the five banners, and the whole 50,000 horses marched towards Tanzhou. He really didn't want to encircle and suppress Li Yunlong, but this old fox didn't have any good intentions, he just wanted to see Li Yunlong's jokes, and let Li Yunlong live at a critical time! He always thought that when Li Yunlong heard the news, he would definitely escape. Where to flee? Based on their friendship, they will definitely flee to him Liao, and the northwest direction is the safest. At that time, the two armies will fight a dozen to make a show, and then send a favor to Li Yunlong, let Li Yunlong run away, at most he will be reprimanded by the king of Xiangjun for a few words, which is harmless, and it is reasonable to say that the two brothers Qian Kang, the governor of Yuezhou, and Sun Jin, the governor of Hengzhou, are also reasonable.

"Zhao Qiansun Li, the four heroes of Xiangjun!" is talking about Zhao Jingzhi, the governor of Yizhou, Qian Kang, the governor of Yuezhou, Sun Jin, the governor of Hengzhou, and Li Yunlong, the governor of Tanzhou, the four sworn brothers, and the order is according to age. After the military region's big contest that year, they cherished each other, worshiped each other as brothers, treated each other with all sincerity, shared weal and woe, and had a prominent reputation in Xiang County. But these four brothers have one problem, that is, they are not convinced by each other. In the military region's big competition that year, Li Yunlong won the first place, and the other three brothers have worked hard to drive him down over the years. It's a pity that in the past ten years, the king of Xiangjun, like the king of Shenzhou, has no intention of fighting, and has not organized a large-scale military competition. Several other governors even laughed at the four of them in private: "Zhao Qian, Sun Li, the four stupid ones!" But no matter what others think, the four brothers have been holding back this energy in their hearts, and they don't want to be driven down by other brothers! It was only when the king of Xiangjun saw this that he dared to order the encirclement and suppression of Li Yunlong.

Zhao Jingzhi led the army to Qingxi Town, a hundred miles away from Tanzhou, that night and stationed there, preparing to set up a position with Li Yunlong tomorrow. He estimated that Li Yunlong would not be able to meet the battle, he only had 100,000 horses, and how could the enemy be able to overcome the enemy from all sides? If he really wanted to fight, he would arrest a few thousand commanders, preferably ten thousand commanders, and then let Li Yunlong escape.

Late at night, Zhao Jingzhi lay down in the quilt and said in his heart: "Li Laosi, Li Laosi, brother, I am the first to save you!" Thinking of this, I was very proud in my heart, and I couldn't stop laughing.

I didn't know that the laughter had not fallen, and I suddenly heard the roar around the garrison camp shaking the sky: "The Tanzhou army is waiting for the governor of Yizhou!" In the dark night, the roar of soldiers, the sound of horses' hooves, and the exclamations of the people, one after another, for a time I don't know how many soldiers and horses surrounded the soldiers and horses of Yizhou, so it seems that the 100,000 troops of Tanzhou fell from the sky and surrounded them.

Zhao Jingzhi was shocked, panicked and quickly got up, ran out in disheveled clothes, and ordered all the soldiers in the military camp to gather quickly and prepare to meet the battle.

The 50,000 soldiers were all nervous, and they hurriedly got up to assemble and became a mess. After a busy hour, they finally got into their places, and the roar around them suddenly disappeared, and the 50,000 soldiers looked around in the cold snow wind, at a loss, neither daring to chase the enemy in the dark night, nor daring to go back to the camp to sleep, so they worked hard in the cold wind until dawn......
