The tenth day of the first lunar month was already the third day after Wei Feng came out. Except for the brief moment when he first left the camp, the rest of the march was not very fast. On the one hand, he needed to correct the position of the Huailing army with the scouts at any time. On the other hand, you also need to pay attention to the chasing troops behind you. Tan Daoji is worthy of being a famous general. He stayed dozens of miles away without getting close. Wei Feng suddenly turned around and tried to annihilate him several times. However, Tan Daoji ran away without engaging in combat at all. Moreover, he was so far away that it was extremely troublesome to outflank him. , Tan Daoji became wary. It was difficult to hide his figure in the vast snowfield, so he kept dragging it down. "Damn it!" Sitting on the horse, Xiang Mi cursed bitterly: "In the past twenty years, the Beifu Army has successively produced Liu Laozhi, Sun Wuzhong, Liu Jinu, He Wuji and other famous generals. It is passed down that now there is Tan Daoji, who is stuck behind us like a dog-skin plaster and cannot be removed. It is really heartbreaking. Where does the Beifu Army come from so many talents? "Xian Enzhuo took it and said: "General Xiang, Beifu Army? The army has been in existence for decades and has a profound foundation. It is not unusual for famous generals to emerge in large numbers. " Wei Feng also waved his hand: "Tan Daoji's intention is easy to guess. It is nothing more than to contain our army so that the Huailing Army can successfully cross the Huai River and join up with it. After crossing the Huai River, the Huailing Army marched northwestward and is currently located at the junction of Jingxian County (now Guzhen County, Bengbu City, Anhui Province) and Mengxian County. Yigu guessed that the Shouchun Army would attack in the next day or two. It is very likely that they will move upstream and lure away the navy stationed alone in Longkang. The Huailing army will speed up its march and rush to cross the Laishui River. If our army lines up to intercept, Tan Daoji should suddenly rush out and put our army under attack from both sides. Unfavorable situation. As for the crossing point, it cannot be still at Longkang, but it will be on the line from Ruyin to Mengxian in the upper reaches. If our army runs hard at this time and ignores the Tan Daoji Department, we can use the time difference to build a raft and get ahead. The Huailing army crossed over before and defeated them in one fell swoop with superior cavalry. However, if this happened, Tan Daoji's tribe would not be able to be eliminated. Seeing that things were not going to work, Tan Daoji would definitely return to Qiao, and perhaps join forces with Zhu Hu to attack our camp. Attacking will also increase Qiao's strength, which is not in line with the original intention, and will also make Liu Jinnu have the chance to fight to the death! Come on, everyone, let's take the initiative to cross the river and kill one of them first, or let him cross the river. A one-pot meal? " "This" Everyone was silent. Taking the initiative to cross the river is less risky, and you can do it step by step. There are unpredictable factors in a pot of rice! After a while, He Hu bowed his hand and said: "Your Majesty, I think that in the past two or three days, Yao Xing and others have attacked our army camp at least once. Seeing that they can't do anything, they will probably join forces with Liu Jinu to send out cavalry. In pursuit, our army is far away from the main camp and is alone. With more than 50,000 cavalry against at least 100,000 enemy infantry, the pressure will be heavy. To be on the safe side, it is better to cross the Laishui River and destroy one of them first. "The rest." Wei Feng muttered: "I suspect that Yao Xing and others may have secretly followed our army camp before attacking to take advantage of them. If this is the case, there is no way to determine the whereabouts of this group. The enemy cavalry lurking around is ultimately a nuisance. If he sneaks across the Luishui River elsewhere and launches a surprise attack when our army attacks the Huailing Army, the consequences will be disastrous. This is not impossible. Liu Bobo and Yao Xing are both cunning. "The generals thought that this was indeed the case. It would be difficult to cross the river without fear. They couldn't help but frowned one after another. Xiang Mi had an idea and said: "Your Majesty, we can assume that Yao Xing and others are actually in fact. Two groups of cavalry were sent, one in the open and one in the dark. The one in the open cooperated with Tan Daoji, and the one in the dark concealed their whereabouts, looking for a chance to kill!" "That's right!" Wei Feng raised his eyebrows and said: "Keep talking!" Xiang Mi said again: "The general thinks that whether Yao Xing sent two groups of cavalry or not, you can ignore it for the time being. When you were about to go out for the expedition three days ago, you ordered 40,000 Xiangyang and Nanyang troops to come. Be prepared for unexpected events. It takes only three days to travel 1,100 miles from Qiao to Xiangyang. It is very likely that we have arrived at Xiangyang today. After two days of preparation, we should send troops to Nanyang the day after tomorrow. It is 300 miles from Xiangyang to Nanyang, and it only takes three days to rush. On the same day, we will march eastward from Nanyang with one day's rest, and we will arrive within ten days. In other words, General Chiang's 40,000 troops should arrive at Qiao on the 26th of the first month at the latest. In this way, our army stationed in Qiao will There are 100,000 troops! Hu Qi will divide his troops to come to the rescue. General Julia will also lead the navy to follow. With the ships to rely on, Your Majesty, you can simply drag the main force of the enemy here, and after Yao Xing and others divide their troops, The camp must be empty and there are five separate villages. Therefore, General Jiang and General Wang can work together to select a siege and use their superior forces to surround the point for reinforcements. Can the enemy not break through? Maybe with luck, they can capture these five kings alive! In this way, whether it is the Tan Daoji tribe, the Huailing army, or the overt and covert reinforcements that you have dragged here, the generals will be confused, or they may collapse without a fight, so you only need to attract the main force of the enemy army. Over there at the camp are General Wang, General Xu and the Cui family.You have the collective strength and military superiority, so victory is a foregone conclusion, so why bother? " As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Xiang Mi with incredible eyes, full of admiration as if they were separated for three days. Even He Hu, who was rejected by him, had no grudge and patted him encouragingly. Xiang Mi's shoulder said: "This plan is very clever. Even if Yao Xing and others urgently call for reinforcements to return, it will take at least a whole day to rush back with fast horses. It will be too late in time. What's more, returning in a hurry will lead to chaos. , the king may be able to find a fighter plane. " "good! Wei Feng even shouted: "Xiang Mi, it seems that your reading of the military book was not in vain. Your method is good. You don't have to pay attention to the conspiracy of Gu Na's cheap brother and Yao Xing and others. Stop calmly. Just wait patiently and stop the Huailing army from moving. Okay, what a good strategy! "Xiang Mi scratched his head in embarrassment and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you have commended me, but there is another key point, that is, how many casualties the Zhuhu coalition suffered and how many troops were sent to rescue. If the casualties are too small and the troops sent are not enough, If there are too many, it may not be easy to destroy one of the camps, or other methods may have to be thought of. " Wei Feng nodded and said: "Don't be arrogant after taking credit, always reflect on yourself, Xiang Mi, it's a good idea for you to have such an idea. Don't worry, you will have no problem standing alone in the future. Ignore him for now, let's go to Ruyin and Mengxian. The water in this area is approaching, and Julia will lead the ship to come within a day or two, and everything will be clear by then. " "Follow your orders! "The spirits of the generals were greatly boosted. They had countermeasures, which are completely different from taking one step at a time. Wei Feng's current location is at the junction of Ruyin and Mengxian. He rushed to the edge of Laishui in the evening of that day, and They sent scouts to pay attention to the surrounding water, only to prevent the Huailing army from crossing the river at night without a trace, and no longer paid attention to the Beifu army behind them. Wei Feng was leisurely here, but Tan Daoji who was following him was not calm anymore. Early the next morning. ,"What? "After getting the news that Wei Feng did not move forward slowly as usual, but stayed on the spot, Tan Daoji frowned and thought carefully. A general guessed: "General Tan, is he King Ming? It was determined that the Huai Ling Army would cross the river there, so they stayed behind to intercept? " Another general said: "Most likely, General Tan, let's rush to support and restrain King Ming from making rash moves. Otherwise, if the delay continues, once the Ming army and navy arrive, the brothers in Huailing will not be able to cross. ah. " "This" Tan Daoji said hesitantly: "I have 30,000 cavalry, and the Huailing army has 35,000, and the Ming Dynasty king personally leads more than 50,000 cavalry. I will attack from both sides by land, and the Huailing army will attack from both sides by water. We may be able to fight against King Ming, but there is a cavalry behind us. Although it has not been discovered, the traces cannot be covered up. According to the original plan of the general, this cavalry and King Ming formed a three-way confrontation and secretly plotted. Both sides will suffer losses, but if he rashly starts a war with King Ming and lurks in the dark, he is afraid that he will give others an advantage in vain! "This is the most disturbing thing. For a moment, all the generals stopped talking and analyzed the pros and cons in detail, but it was still difficult to come up with an idea. "General Tan! "At this moment, a personal follower rushed over and said urgently: "Qin State Zhennan General Yao Yu sent an envoy here, saying that he has led 38,000 cavalry to catch up, and is willing to work with you, General, to defeat the enemy. Ming army! " "oh? " Tan Daoji looked back, and sure enough, about half a stick of incense, billowing smoke and dust appeared behind him. It was obvious that a large group of cavalry was approaching quickly. Although he came to support, Tan Daoji did not dare to be slow, and quickly called: "Mount the horse. , get ready for battle! " "Woooooo~~" Suddenly, the horns sounded continuously, and the soldiers of the Beifu Army mounted their horses one after another, looking like they were ready for battle. Not long after, a group of cavalry appeared in front of them, reining in their horses and stopping two hundred steps away. Yao Nagu stepped forward, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "General Tan, Yao is honored to meet you. This time Yao was jointly dispatched by the five masters and ordered his 38,000 cavalry to obey General Tan's orders. " Not only Tan Daoji, but also the generals behind him were very puzzled. Did Yao Gu have such good intentions? What they wanted to know more was whether Yao Gu was the invisible pursuer behind him. Tan Daoji couldn't figure it out, so he simply He didn't want to, and gave a faint reply: "General Yao's words are serious, you and I just need to work together. " Yao Man saw Tan Daoji's scruples at a glance and did not point them out. He took out a letter from his arms and handed it over and said: "This is the letter Liu Taiwei asked Yao to bring to General Tan. " "Thank you! "The envelope was covered in wax and was obviously untouched. Tan Daoji took it and opened it. Sure enough, it was Liu Yu's handwriting. Liu Yu's handwriting is very distinctive, that is, big, because Liu Yu had no skills in his early years and his handwriting was ugly. But as his status became more and more respected, calligraphy became more and more important. However, at his age and worrying about military affairs all day long, he had no time to practice calligraphy, so Liu Muzhi gave an idea and asked Liu Muzhi to Yu writes the words as big as possible, so that he is generous, and the small wordsThe requirements for detail processing and writing skills are extremely high, but large characters are not required. Just like a woman¡¯s skin color, one white color can cover up three ugliness, the same is true for words, one white color can cover up three ugliness!
