On the 20th day of the first lunar month of the fifth year of Ganning, the battle situation on the three towns of Yun, Yan and Qi had undergone profound changes.

On the northern line, Yu Hou Fengzangzhi, a horse and bushman in Hezhong, was appointed as the Qizhou recruitment envoy, commanding and protecting the country, Zhongwu, and Jianrui's army for more than 20,000 people.

On the twelfth day of the first lunar month, the army of Jinrui was ordered by the army of Jianrui, and Zhang Yun, to stay in the rear, suppressed the counties, led the country to protect the country, and the two army of Zhongwu advanced from Pingyin east.

After the Feilong Army abandoned Changqing and left, the defeated troops in Yunzhen gathered a group of thieves and followed Zhu Xuan's orders to advance to the northeast of Pingyin. As a result, Fengzang was defeated and beheaded 400 people.

On the 16th, the army advanced to Bimashan and defeated more than a thousand people who had finally gathered Zhu Xuan, beheaded 300 people, and Zhu Xuan rode alone to escape.

On the 17th, the Changqing period was collected. On the 18th, he heard that Zhu Xuan led more than a thousand cavalry to move at Fengqi Post. Feng Zang led the national protection army to pursue him. He was ambushed by the King of Qi generals and returned, and suffered more than 3,000 troops.

Pu Bing's morale was frustrated, so he retreated to Changqing.

Wang Shike is the younger brother of Wang Shifan.

When Shao Shude heard the news, he was worried that the northern road could not defeat Yun, so Qi and the two towns joined forces and ordered the Pengsheng army stationed in Yuncheng to go north, pass through Zhongdu County to Changqing, and return to Fengzang's command.

The Flying Dragon Army, which went deep into the enemy's rear, fought well.

They first defeated the Yi soldiers in Yishui County, beheading more than 3,000, and then went straight to Mizhou without stopping, defeating the enemy's vanguard and beheading 800. The secret people were so scared that they defended the city and did not dare to attack again.

On the southern front, the war is quite anxious.

Shao Shude lost patience with Liu Zhijun's inability to conquer Rencheng. After waiting for the Tielin Army, he led a large army to Rencheng on the 18th day of the first lunar month and stationed in Yuyangmen Bridge.

This bridge spans Sishui and is located in the suburbs of Rencheng County. Yan general Yan Bao sent 6,000 people to guard, of which 3,000 were the military servants of Yanzhen and 3,000 were the Ding Zhuang of Rencheng.

Yan Bao led more than 8,000 people to guard the county town, and he believed that he had sufficient food and grass, was arrogant and unwilling to surrender.

"General Liu, you are not blamed for this battle." Shao Shude saw Liu Zhijun for the first time, and comforted him with a gentle voice: "The Longhu Army has not had many thieves in the city, so it is normal that they can't be defeated."

Liu Zhijun was from Xuzhou and served under Shi Pu's tent. At first, because of his very brave battle, he was highly valued by Shi Pu and was constantly promoted. But later Shi Pu found that this man was not only brave but also had a plan, so he immediately began to suppress him. Liu Zhijun was afraid of being killed, so he defected to Zhu Quanzhong and returned to Caozhou camp.

After Zhu Quanzhong's failure, Liu Zhijun saw that there was no force around him to surrender, so he had no choice but to surrender to Shao Shude. His troops were organized into the Dragon and Tiger Army, with thousands of people, and there are still about 8,000 more people at present.

The Dragon and Tiger Army has a complex source, including Xuzhou soldiers, as well as military men from Cao, Dan and Huazhou. But Liu Zhijun has a good integration, with the upper and lower parts being one and a single piece of iron, almost his private soldiers, and even Zhu Zhen can't do anything to him.

Shao Shude knew Liu Zhijun's thoughts and thoughts well, and he knew his historical character well. But he was still willing to give Liu Zhijun a chance. As long as you are willing to obey and fight hard, I will not suspicion randomly and will also give him wealth.

Now it seems that Liu Zhijun played well in Rencheng, not considered a scheming person, and although he couldn't be too hard.

There is a warlord idea of ​​preserving strength, but it is not obvious, and it is still in a state of salvation.

"The king is generous and kind, and the last general doesn't know what to say." Liu Zhijun said movedly: "Now tens of thousands of troops have arrived together, maybe they can attack again. The last general is willing to lead his troops to arrive first."

"No need to do this." Shao Shude stopped his words and said, "Is it worth it to kill and injured tens of thousands of people in order to attack Rencheng?"

Liu Zhijun was speechless.

"How did Zhu Quanzhong attack Shi Pu in the past?" Shao Shude asked.

"They surround the site to attack the aid, besiege Xuzhou, and repeatedly fight troops. The people lost their crops, and the grain was not supported, and they would be defeated without attacking." Liu Zhijun replied.

Liu Zhijun is really familiar with this.

After the Battle of Wukangzhen, Xuzhou turned into the defensive situation. The three brothers Xu, Yun and Yan rescued each other and were surrounded by Liang's army and attacked and carried out several times. Xuzhou was in a bad mood, with continuous floods and agricultural production greatly affected, so Zhu Quanzhong focused on attacking and destroying Xu Zhen.

When the two armies confront each other, the people generally choose to temporarily avoid it and wait for the war to end before going home. But what if they often fight? Then the people will not be able to live or plant the fields. Over time, the so-called strong cities will lose the soil for defense, and it is normal to destroy themselves without attacking.

"How did Zhu Quanzhong attack Yun and Yan?" Shao Shude asked again.

"Quanzhong captured the life army, plundered the people, and lost to the military feed. He even moved the people away and let the people of Yun, and the people of Yan had no food and clothing. The people of Liang once forced the people of Yanzhou to Songzhou." Liu Zhijun replied.

"That's right. If I can't defeat the city, I will move the people away. What can he do to me?" Shao Shude sneered: "Zhu Quanzhong is still too ruthless and has moved 3,000 households. If I come, 30,000 households are not enough."

Liu Zhijun was shocked.

I have heard for a long time that King Xia is not allowed to burn, kill, loot, or harm the people. But after entering Yunzhou, why are the methods so fierce? News came from Juye that many of the families of the martial artists in Yunzhen were exiled to Qingtang because they resisted too fiercely. Now they actually pleaded that they would forcibly move to the people of Yanzhou, and Liu Zhijun had to re-examine the world-famous head of the Guanxi Army.

"Tomorrow, attack Yangmen Bridge Pirate Village, Dragon and Tiger Army will fight, I will personally cheer for the general." Shao Shude glanced at Liu Zhijun and said.

"As for the order." Liu Zhijun responded quickly without any strangeness on his face.

*******

Zhu Jin came to Rencheng near, and more than 3,000 cavalrymen were stationed in Yao Temple, seven miles southeast of the city.

The scenery here is beautiful and is always a place for scholars and officials to gather. Nearby is Fengyan Canal dug by Xue Zhou of the Sui Dynasty. It has developed agriculture and is considered a better place in Yanzhou.

There were some Xia army cavalry opposite, who rode on horseback, insulted loudly, and burst into laughter from time to time.

"What is the 'Zhang Fei'? Zhu Jin dares to fight?"

"Is it because of the 'fake Zhang Fei' who only dares to hide behind the formation?"

"I claim to be the best horse spear in Henan, but I'm exaggerating."

Faced with the provocation, Zhu Jin was unmoved and listened carefully to his subordinates' reports.

"Xia thieves have another tactic of siege three que 1. Shao thieves are sitting in Yangmen Bridge, surrounded by General Tu and Tielin Army, with a total of more than 30,000 people."

"According to the fact that the Longxiang Army envoy Hu Zhen was the sword-cutting envoy of Rencheng, responsible for organizing the siege, but the actual commander of the war was probably Ge Congzhou, the deputy commander of the sword-cutting envoy."

"Longxiang, Longhu, Guangsheng, Shenjie Fourth Army and a unit of Yanei Army are responsible for siege. This will be the attack on Yangmen Bridge Village."

"Shao Piei held the main elite troops and must have wanted to surround the site to attack reinforcements, find an opportunity to defeat our reinforcements, and forcefully surrender to Rencheng."

Zhu Jin nodded, still staring at the Xia cavalry who were still showing off his power. It seemed that they were the cavalry of the Tielin Army and their morale was pretty good.

"The reinforcements from the two states of Yi and Mi have been defeated, and only more than 3,000 Haizhou soldiers have arrived in Yizhou, but they are not advancing and are quite hesitant. The last general feels that it is better to be quiet than to move at this time, so they need to be careful." The ya general Hu Gui advised.

To put it bluntly, I just fear it.

The Flying Dragon Army was like a sharp knife, running around in Yi and Mizhou. The military discipline was still very poor, and they plundered food and grass everywhere, mules and horses, but their combat effectiveness was good. They defeated Yi and Mizhou soldiers in a short period of time, which deterred the Haizhou soldiers. Yanzhou was already a little isolated and helpless.

In fact, the same was true when facing the attack of the Liang army. In the end, he relied on defending the city to stop the Liang people. Hu Gui's advice was a bit like a path dependence.

"Master, now it is the main guard." Judge Xin Wan also advised: "In the past, Zhu Zhen, Ding Hui, Pang Shigu, Zhu Youyu and others took turns to attack Yun and Yan. We are united in our hearts and defend the city, so that the enemy will return without success. Yan Du is fully qualified and has enough food. Shao Bizhe will not be able to take over Rencheng within half a year. We just need to harass the outside world and let the defenders in the city know that the commander does not intend to abandon them."

Zhu Jin nodded, hesitating again. The tyranny in his heart continued to surge, and he was also a little urge to take a decisive battle.

In the Battle of Jinxiang, facing the army that Ding Hui formed a formation to defend, he couldn't help it. He rushed forward and finally returned with a crushing defeat. There was no doubt that it was a wrong military decision, but sometimes he couldn't control his temper.

"Forget it." Zhu Jin sighed and said, "Drag! Just drag it as long as you can, until Shao Zhe can't waste it."

This is to fight a naughty battle, pretend to be dead, pretend to be someone to come to save them.

"The great man is wise." Everyone praised.

Zhu Jin looked at their faces silently, and saw that it was not a fake, he felt a little relieved, and then said, "But Xia Thief is so arrogant, it may hurt my morale."

After saying that, it makes people blow the horns.

"Woo!" Big Kok blew the first pass, and the Iron Lin army cavalry opposite was stunned.

The Taining Army cavalry gathered immediately, with not many people, just two or three hundred cavalry.

"Woo!" The big horn blew the second pass, raised the flag spear, and Zhu Jin took the lead and rushed out.

More than two hundred cavalry galloped on the field like arrows away from the strings. The Xia cavalry opposite was furious and hedged.

Zhu Jin pulled out a flying spear from the sheath, threw it out "swoosh", and rushed to the fastest Xia Jun cavalry school.

Then there is the second handle, the third handle, and the fourth handle.

Four flying spears killed four people in a row, and suddenly opened a gap in front.

Seeing this, the knights behind him were very motivated and shouted to follow.

Zhu Jin raised his horse spear, swept left and right, and rushed straight into the Xia cavalry crowd. Wherever he passed, there was no enemy. He rushed to the end, and directly abandoned the horse spear, pulled out his sword, and killed three people in a row, killing the Xia cavalry and turning around.

Before leaving, he captured a military academy alive and rushed to the horse.

"Happy!" Zhu Jin laughed.

The general's infantry formation was defeated in the last time, and was intercepted again, and was beaten to an extremely embarrassed manner. This time, he finally showed his strength and gave Xia Zhe a powerful force.

How could you get a fame when you compete with Zhang Fei?

There was a dense sound of drums and horns in the distance, and then the sound of hooves was like thunder, as if a cavalry and barons were rushing towards me.

Zhu Jin cursed inwardly and said, "Retreat!"

The iron sword in his hand was crossed, cutting off the captive's head and leaving.

"Master General, I just received the news." Xin Wan rode his horse to catch up with Zhu Jin and said gasping: "Zhu Quanzhong crossed the river from Bozhou, attacked Dong'a, and pointed directly at Yanggu."

"What? Zhu Quanzhong is here too?" Zhu Jin was stunned at first, then laughed again: "Okay! OK! Now let's go back to Yanzhou. The more chaotic the game, the better. I have to see how Shao Zhe dealt with it."

"Now is the time to compete for patience." Xin Wan almost breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It is rumored that Zhu Quanzhong has 50,000 people, and Yunzhou is about to become lively."

"Look at Shao Zhe. If he escapes, he will lead his army to pursue him. He must bite off a piece of meat." Zhu Jin ordered: "Even if Shao Zhe does not leave, it is good to drag his main force here, and create a chance for Li Keyong."
