Chapter 899 Battle of the Three Emperors (4)

Two hundred thousand Gan army and two hundred eighty thousand Western army fought against each other on both sides of the Ba River.

It is not an easy task to fight a battle of hundreds of thousands of people.

The Gan Army was delaying time, waiting for domestic mobilization, sending subsequent troops into Guanzhong, and waiting for news about the partial division of Huguang.

The Tangxi Allied Forces were accumulating strength and looking for Gao Huan's flaws. Both sides were waiting for the fighter opportunity. They did not dare to take action rashly before they were sure.

Outside the Ganjun camp, Gao Huan led a group of people to patrol each battalion and check the fortifications built by each battalion.

At this time, Yang Yan suddenly led a team of soldiers and escorted one of them over.

"Your Majesty!" Yang Yan reported with his fists, "Catch a detailed work!"

Gao Huan raised his eyebrows, looked at the man being escorted, and couldn't help asking, "What's the situation?"

Yang Yan said: "This man was sneaky and caught by his patrol brother. I found a letter from him."

After speaking, he presented the letter with both hands.

Gao Huan frowned slightly, took the letter, tore open the wax seal to watch, and his face immediately became gloomy.

"Your Majesty, what is written in the letter?" Sun Chuanting couldn't help asking when he saw Gao Huan's ugly face.

Gao Huan handed the letter to Sun Chuanting and said in a deep voice: "It was Zhang Xianzhong's letter to Zheng Zhilong, saying that I had been restrained by them, so that Zheng Zhilong would sneak attack Jiangnan and capture the capital as agreed!"

When Sun Chuanting and others heard the words, they all looked shocked and quickly finished reading the letter.

Gao Huan had a gloomy face, "What do you think about you?"

Sun Chuanting and others did not know Zheng Zhilong and dared not draw conclusions, but the matter was a bit strange.

"Your Majesty! I dare not make up for this matter, but a detailed work suddenly appeared at this time and a letter was searched for. I think this matter is not simple!" Sun Chuanting said in a deep voice.

Gao Huan's cheeks were suffocating. Judging from the meaning of the letter, Zhang Xianzhong had already colluded with Zheng Zhilong and had reached some kind of agreement.

Gao Huan sent a detailed surveillance on Zheng Zhilong, but the Guoan Department did not receive any news.

With the ability of Guoan Department, Zheng Zhilong and Zhang Xianzhong colluded with him. If he really had any actions, he shouldn't escape the eyes of Guoan Department.

Furthermore, this detailed work did not go south to Sichuan, but went to Guangxi in the western country, and then went to sea to find Zheng Zhilong, but went east to enter the area controlled by the Ganjun. The intention was really suspicious.

Thinking of this, Gao Huan sneered, "This must be Zhang Xianzhong's plan to alienate and want to disrupt my military spirit."

After Gao Huan finished speaking, he took the letter, pulled it into pieces, and then raised it.

When something suddenly happened, Gao Huan had no intention of patrolling the military camp and hadtily finished the inspection and returned to the tent.

This matter is likely to be Zhang Xianzhong's plan, but Gao Huan is really worried about Zheng Zhilong.

Gao Huan had long hinted that Zheng Zhilong left Xiamen and went to Luzon Island to take up a vassal state, but Zheng Zhilong stayed in Xiamen on the grounds that the five-year period had not arrived and his health was not in good condition.

Although Gao Huan believed that Zheng Sen would not support Zheng Zhilong's rebellion, once the seeds of doubt were planted, it would make Gao Huan feel at ease.

After all, I am not afraid of ten thousand in everything, but I am afraid of one thing. If Zheng Zhilong really rebelled, it would definitely cause unrest in the southeast and cause huge losses to Ganguo.

Gao Huan stood in the big tent with an angry look on his face, "Zhang Xianzhong, it's impolite to come but not come. If you make me uneasy, I can't make you feel comfortable!"

Gao Huan snorted coldly, sat at the table, and began to lift his pen to write a letter of surrender.

...

Yunyang Prefecture, Huguang, the southern foot of the Qinling Mountains, and the Han River Valley.

At this time, an army of 30,000 people was winding forward against the Han River.

This army was ordered by Gao Huan to attack the Huguang Gan Army in Hanzhong.

After learning that Zhang Xianzhong had left Sichuan and the army entered Guanzhong, Gao Huan felt that this was a great opportunity to replicate the Battle of Hedong.

During the Hedong War, Li Jiyu led the main force of the Tang army to leave Guanzhong and advance to near Taiyuan. Gao Huan asked Sun Chuanting to send troops to southern Jin, break through Wuling Pass, cut off Li Jiyu's way back to Guanzhong, and eventually defeated 100,000 Tang troops.

Now Zhang Xianzhong leads 200,000 Western troops and leaves Sichuan and enters Guanzhong. Gao Huan asks Yuan Zongdi to send troops to capture Hanzhong and cut off Zhang Xianzhong's way back to Sichuan.

If the plan is successful, Gao Huan can even destroy Li Jiyu and Zhang Xianzhong in one fell swoop through the battle of Guanzhong, and achieve unification within the Guanzhong.

At this time, the Gan army quickly advanced westward against the Han River Valley, and the forward army's whistle cavalry were running in front to watch for the army to prevent them from being ambushed by the Western Army.

After all, the Gan Army likes to intersperse too much and cut off people's way back, and the Western Army may be prepared for some precautions.

At this time, I saw that in the Han River Valley, there were densely packed soldiers wearing armor and holding weapons, and the flags of various battalions of the Gan Army were flying in the wind in the valley, and a convoy of escorting food and supplies followed behind. The team spread for more than ten miles, and the scene was extremely spectacular.

Under the commander's flag, Yuan Zongdi rode high on the horse, and the staff beside him were introducing the position of the army.

"Governor, you will enter the boundary of Xing'an Prefecture, Shaanxi 50 miles away, and you will arrive in Baihe County."

Yuan Zongdi nodded when he heard this, "Many scouts sent to investigate to see if there were Western troops stationed in Baihe."

Wu Ruyi, who was standing beside him, waved his hand, and several cavalrymen immediately rushed forward to investigate the situation ahead.

"Governor, I don't know how his Majesty and Zhang Xianzhong fight. His Majesty led 200,000 elite troops, and Zhang Xianzhong and Li Jiyu attacked and killed each other. It shouldn't be difficult for Your Majesty to seize Guanzhong, right?" Wu Ruyi said casually.

"Not necessarily!" Yuan Zongdi shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty sent troops to Guanzhong. As long as Zhang Xianzhong and Li Jiyu are not crazy, they will definitely join forces to fight against Your Majesty."

At this time, the two were talking, and a horse rushed over, "Report!"

Yuan Zongdi was shocked when he heard the words, and pulled the horse aside. The cavalry rushed in front of him and tied the reins of the horse to report, "Governor, more than ten miles ahead, he found the Western Army vanguard!"

Yuan Zongdi showed surprise on his face, and Wu Ruyi said in surprise: "Governor, it seems that the Western Army is already prepared and wants to ambush us."

The Gan Army often detoured and encircled the enemy. It was not impossible for the Western Army to attack Hanzhong.

Yuan Zongdi narrowed his eyes and asked, "How many soldiers and horses are there in the Western Army?"

"I don't know, Bei Zhiren met the other side's cavalry and killed for a while, but he saw a large area of ​​Western troops in the valley from afar, just like a rising tide, probably tens of thousands of dollars." The scout replied urgently.

Yuan Zong said nothing at the first time, and suddenly said after a moment: "The Western Army should not ambush us, but be preparing to attack Xiangyang. It seems that Zhang Xianzhong and His Majesty want to go together. Now we are colliding with the Western Army that attacked Huguang."

Upon hearing the words, a group of generals gathered over and asked, "Governor, what should I do now?"

Yuan Zongdi pondered for a while, then waved his hand and called, "Send the order, the army stops advancing, form a formation on the spot, prepare to face the enemy."
