Deep in the Qishan Mountains, in a valley, hide Toad Guo and his thousand cavalry.

At this time, in the valley, the soldiers of Tongyuan Army were sitting on the ground and resting. There were sentries on the top of the mountain, paying attention to the movements around them.

Guo Xiatu was less than forty years old. He was a Han nationality and a famous general in the Kingdom of Jin who was as famous as Monk Chen.

If Zhao Tai hadn't made the suggestion, Guo Xiatu would have stayed at Longshang alone for three years after the fall of the Jin Kingdom, continuing the three-year rule for the destroyed Jin Kingdom, and finally committed suicide after breaking the city.

Now, because of Zhao Tai's suggestion, this famous Jin general left Longshang and sneaked into Guanzhong with his elite troops to break the Mongolian army's supply line.

At this time, he was wearing armor, sitting on a stone, looking at the map with several subordinates, and discussing the military situation.

"Is there no news yet from the scout?" Guo Xia Tou asked in a deep voice.

The general shook his head, "No news yet! Commander, will they have any accidents?"

Guo Xiatu frowned. After he left Huizhou, he successively attacked the Mongolian army's transport team in Qinzhou, Pingliang and other places, and then moved to Qishan.

At the moment, the Mongolian army is looking for him everywhere. However, the Mongolian occupation of Guanzhong has not yet established a complete administrative and management system. Transportation teams in various states have been attacked. The local garrison usually only manages Xiazhou County, looking for traces of the toad.

Not being able to cross the border to pursue him gave Guo a chance.

At this time, he was hiding in Qishan, waiting for the scouts to deliver him the news about the Mongolian army's transport team. However, three days passed and the scouts did not come back, which made Guo Xiafu a little wary.

He has now left Longshang and is operating in the area occupied by the Mongolian army. Once discovered by the Mongolian army and encircled by the Mongolian army, he will be in a very dangerous situation.

Therefore, he could not stay in one place for a long time and had to constantly move his position to avoid being targeted by the Mongolian army.

Guo Xia Tou said with a sullen face, "Wait a minute, we have sent out multiple scouts, there is no way everything will go wrong."

Here he was discussing with his subordinates, but the sentry at the top of the mountain saw two cavalrymen galloping towards this direction, so he quickly waved a flag to report, "Commander, the scouts are back!"

Not long after, two cavalrymen entered the valley, then dismounted and walked quickly to Guo Xiabao. "The commander-in-chief, the subordinates and others discovered the Mongolian army's transport team on the official road sixty miles east of Fengxiang Fucheng."

Guo Xiadou was overjoyed and stood up. "How many vehicles are there and are they protected by soldiers and horses?"

"Reporting to the commander-in-chief, there are hundreds of carts, and there are about a thousand civilians and escorting troops, mainly infantry." Sun Liuzi said: "Now our captain is still continuing to monitor, let the humble officer come back and report to the commander-in-chief!"

After hearing the report, Guo Xiadou immediately gave the order, "The whole army must assemble and set off immediately after a good meal."

At that moment, Qian Tongyuan's army ate some dry food and fed their horses some fodder. Then they got on their horses and followed the toad out of the valley, galloping toward the southeast.

~~~~~~

The war between Mongolia and Jin lasted for more than 20 years, and the Jin Kingdom had enough experience in dealing with Mongolia's winter offensive.

After the Yellow River froze in winter, although Mongolia had a chance to advance into Henan, they faced the solid walls and clear fields of the Jin Kingdom.

This time the Mongolian army broke through the Guanhe defense line of the Jin Kingdom, but they also faced several problems. One was the solid city guarded by the Jin army, and the other was that due to the Jin army's fortified walls and clearing of the fields, as well as the destruction of the war, it was difficult for Mongolia to solve the problem within the territory of the Jin kingdom.

Food supplies.

Therefore, after the Mongols captured Tongguan, Guanzhong became a food supply place for the Mongolian army.

The Mongolian general who transported grain and grass from Fengxiang to Xi'an was a Han soldier named Zhou Haicheng. He was originally from the Jin army. After the Mongols occupied Xi'an, Guanzhong prefectures and counties surrendered one after another, so he followed his general and surrendered to Mongolia.

The news that Guo Xiapou was leading the cavalry to plunder the Mongolian army transport teams has reached Fengxiang.

General Fengxiang was worried that the grain and grass would be robbed, so he sent him to escort the grain truck to Xi'an.

At this time, Zhou Haicheng was riding on his horse, looking around anxiously.

Just now, the men he sent out discovered someone secretly following the convoy, which made him very worried.

At this time, he was already far away from Fengxiang, and he was still sixty or seventy miles away from the next city where he could rest. He was in an embarrassing situation with no way to go or a shop. Once Guo Xia Tou led his troops to attack, he would be dead.

.

Guo Xiabao had a high prestige in the Guanlong area, and all the generals in the army knew that he was a ruthless man.

"Speed ​​up!" Zhou Haicheng anxiously urged the convoy to move forward, then called a subordinate and said in a deep voice, "Go to Fufeng County immediately and ask the defenders to come and respond."

"Yes!" The soldier clasped his fists and then galloped away on horseback.

Watching the cavalry walk away, Zhou Haicheng still felt uneasy. He could only pray in his heart that the people following him were not Tongyuan Army scouts, but ordinary local bandits.

In the woods beside the official road, several scouts were watching the transport team.

"Boss, the enemy has sent someone to ask for reinforcements." A scout saw a horse running out of the transport team and heading towards Fufeng. He couldn't help but exclaimed, "Commander, why haven't they come here yet? If the enemy has reinforcements,

Once we arrive, it will be less difficult to rob food."

The leader was also very worried, but he still said in a deep voice: "We left marks along the way. As long as Sun Liuzi notifies the commander, they will definitely catch up. After all, we are cavalry, and the transport team is slow."

Zhou Haicheng was anxious and urged the convoy to move quickly, thinking about what he would do if Guo Toad came to kill him.

Just as his thoughts were racing and his heart was in turmoil, the ground began to tremble, and yellow dust rose up from behind the motorcade.

When Zhou Haicheng heard the noise, he looked back and was immediately heartbroken. The civilians and troops behind the convoy screamed and fell into chaos.

"It's the cavalry!" Zhou Haicheng's face was pale, and the spear in his hand trembled slightly with the trembling of the earth.

After the Mongols occupied Guanzhong, they did not station troops everywhere, leaving only one troop in Xi'an, and the remaining prefectures and counties were garrisoned by surrendered Jin troops.

Zhou Haicheng knew that there was no such large-scale cavalry nearby. When he saw the yellow dust raised, he knew that it must be Guo Toad who was coming to kill him.

"Go forward!" Zhou Haicheng shouted loudly, urging the convoy to move forward.

The escorting Mongolian soldiers roared loudly, and the civilians woke up from a dream and hurriedly drove their carts forward.

However, the speed of the convoy could not compare with the cavalry. In the blink of an eye, the cavalry was getting closer and closer.

At this time, the guarding soldiers and the civilian driver who drove the cart looked back and saw that the cavalry was catching up immediately. They were immediately stunned. They made a noise, abandoned the cart one after another, and fled in both directions.

When Zhou Haicheng saw nearly a thousand cavalry, he felt that there was no need to die for the Mongols, so he made a quick decision, "Run!"

Nearly a thousand Mongolian troops immediately abandoned their grain carts and fled eastward. After a while, the cavalry roared and killed them. Dozens of Mongolian troops who could not escape were immediately stabbed by the cavalry's horses and fell to the ground and died miserably.
