Chapter 41 If something is abnormal, you must be a demon

Luo Li immediately followed him to the front of the map, pointed to the direction of Yiyang County and said, "I just came to report that there were more than a thousand soldiers and horses under Wang Shaoyu's command, and they had already gone to Liuquan Town on the north bank of the Luo River, but he was not fast to move. After arriving at Liuquan Town, he stopped again! Our scouts are still staring at the main force of Wang Shaoyu in Yiyang County. Now Wang Shaoyu is still nesting in Yiyang County and has not come out!"

After two or three years of training, Xiao Tianjian is no longer the rookie when he first came. The continuous war has accumulated quite a lot of experience. Therefore, he has a quite keen sense of smell for military affairs. After looking at the map, he touched his chin and thought about it. After a moment, he shook his head and said, "There is nothing terrible about this Wang Shaoyu. Even if more than 4,000 officers and soldiers under his command come, it is not enough for us to be the enemy. Moreover, this man has a nickname called Wang Bacheng. The deduction of the army is very powerful. The soldiers under his command hate him so much, so these soldiers under his command can only It's said that it's a bunch of guys with no fighting spirit. He has thousands of soldiers and horses to worry about at all! I think he is also very clear about this. Although he was ordered to save Yongning County this time, he did not move forward after arriving in Yiyang, which showed that he was timid before fighting! It's not a problem to clean him up!

However, his action this time is a little suspicious. Now what I'm worried about is not Wang Shaoyu's officers and soldiers, but our other officers and soldiers in Yongning County and soldiers in Henan this time. Chen Yongfu's soldiers and horses should still be in Kaifeng, and will not be transferred in a short time, but there are still two tough generals in Henan, Zu Dale and Zu Kuan. It works. These two people are Guanning iron riders under their command, and their combat effectiveness is very strong. If I guess well, this time we hit Yongning County, which should have shocked Chen Biqian, the governor of Henan Province. Now Lu Xiangsheng's Tianxiong Army has gone north to Xuanda. What he can use now is Zu Kuan and Zu Dale, two tigers from Liaodong. Yes, but at present, we don't know where they are. Whether they have rushed to Yongning County!

Since Wang Shaoyu has been nestling in Yiyang County these days and dare not move, why did he suddenly send another man out to Liuquan Town now? Why do I think it's a little wrong?"

After listening to Xiao Tianjian's words, Luo Li was not a layman. After lying on the map and looking at it, he seemed to realize something, so he frowned and asked, "Does the general suspect that Zu Kuan or Zu Da Le may have led the army to Yiyang County?"

Xiao Tianjian stood in front of the map and nodded and said, "It's hard to say. These days, we have mainly focused on the area of Yongning County. We don't pay much attention to the direction of Yiyang, but I think it's very possible! Otherwise, with Wang Shaoyu's courage, he would not dare to send troops to Yiyang County easily. Since he dares to send troops out now, I'm afraid this matter will not be as simple as you think. Maybe the more than 1,000 people he sent is a bait for us! Just wait for us to bite the hook!"

Luo Li didn't believe it. He scratched his head and said, "It shouldn't be! The inferior position has sent scouts to explore the area of Liuquan Town, and there is no sign of a large number of officers and soldiers!"

Xiao Tianjian turned around and said, "This is just my guess. I'm not sure whether it is true or not. In short, I feel that Wang Shaoyu's action this time is a little abnormal. If something is abnormal, he will be a demon! Look, the area around Liuquan Town is flat. He sent more than a thousand officers and soldiers to suddenly run to Liuquan Town, a dangerous place. Knowing that we were staring at them, he did not push forward with the whole army, but why did he throw these officers and soldiers here to death? He should know our troops. More than a thousand people have been put here. Once we jump over, this number of soldiers is not enough for us!

And take a look again. From Yiyang to Yongning County, there is a flat river along the Luohe River, which is very suitable for cavalry maneuvering, and a few miles away from the north bank of the Luohe River is hilly terrain, with ravines and dense forests. If the officers and cavalry ambushed in this area north of Liuquan Town in advance. In the mountains and forests, once we concentrate our forces to eat the officers and soldiers of Liuquan Town, they can come out from behind us. At that time, we will basically be foot soldiers. In the face of their brigade of cavalry, we will be in trouble, and there will be chaos immediately. This loss will be great! Maybe it will end up with the destruction of the whole army. We can't prevent it!

Tietou, passed the order to Li Shuanzhu to immediately join forces with the Second Battalion. At the same time, he also sent scouts to search north of Liuquan Town to see if I was too careful this time!"

Tietou immediately took the order and went out to arrange people to immediately follow Xiao Tianjian's instructions and pass the order to Li Shuanzhu, who was garrisoning in the south of the city, so that his speed department rushed back to the battalion and meet Luo Li's second battalion.

Luo Li said at this time, "What the general said is reasonable. If you think about it carefully, it's really something wrong!" I will reject the waiting team and send people to explore the north area of Liuquan Town!"

Xiao Tianjian nodded and said, "Yes, I will also arrange for Situ Liang to send a team of cavalry to you, and try to widen the search surface!" Don't let go anywhere in the north of Liuquan Town! It's easy to hide three or two thousand soldiers and horses in any ditch there. We can't help but be careful. In addition, you first lead your troops to Hancheng Town to garrison. As soon as the three battalions arrive, I will immediately take them to meet you! Anyway, we have to fight this battle, and we have to fight it more beautifully. Otherwise, we can't stand here!"

Luo Li stood up and said loudly, "I'm obedient! I'll arrange it now!"

As the officers and soldiers in the direction of Yiyang County began to change, the departments of the Xingtian Army, which were sweeping in the area of Yongning County, began to shrink. Luo Li's second battalion rushed to Hancheng Town first, stopped on the east side of Hancheng Town, and built fortifications. Luzhan and Ji Ma were working quickly. With the help of the barracks, it was set up on the flat ground east of Hancheng Town.

After receiving Xiao Tianjian's order, Li Shuanzhu led the third battalion to quickly shrink from the south of Yongning County to the camp outside Yongning County, and Liu Yaoben's teaching camp, which was fortified in the west of the city, was also ordered to contract and returned to Yongning County. The atmosphere in Yongning County suddenly became tense.

After Li Shuanzhu's troops rushed back to the camp, Xiao Tianjian did not delay the barracks and immediately ordered the barracks to enter the county to garrison. Situ Liang's cavalry also accompanied him and immediately rushed to Hancheng Town in the east of the city with the Third Battalion.

After Xiao Tianjian led his troops into the camp in the east of Hancheng Town, Luo Li immediately found Xiao Tianjian angrily: "General Qi, you are right this time. His grandmother's officers and soldiers really hid a whistle in the Changgou area north of Liuquan Town. The specific strength is not clear, but the posture is all tough. Soldiers and horses are hiding in the mountains, and our scouts can't get in at all! Where to go, only one of the scouts came back, and the rest were left in the mountain. If the rest of the scouts had not been desperate to cover this man to escape, they would have been almost killed in the mountain this time! However, the brothers who came back also said that the officers and soldiers who ambushed them in the mountains were all with Guanwai accents, and they were very tough. If they guessed well, they should be Zu Dale or Zu Kuan's men! It's really insidious. Such a sentry horse is hiding in the mountain, and there is no sound of wind! It's so close! If it weren't for the general's fraud, if we go to Liuquan Town this time, they will come out to block our retreat. Damn, they are actually playing with us!

However, the officers and soldiers in the mountain are very careful. They have been sent for a long time to seal the mountain pass. We can't find out how many people they have. We can't figure out how many they are!"

After hearing this, Xiao Tianjian sneered and said, "It seems that Chen Biqian's action is fast enough. This time, he actually sent these two generals!" It seems that he wants to block us in Liuquan Town and eat it in one fell swoop! Humph! Think of beauty! These scout brothers have made great achievements this time. Write down their names and turn back to let them enter the Martyrs' Temple to worship. Those who come back alive should also be rewarded and reused in the future!"

Luo Li immediately nodded and wrote it down. The generals followed Xiao Tianjian into Luo Li's big tent. Here, Luo Li had already prepared a topographic map around Liuquan Town temporarily drawn by the scout. Xiao Tianjian strode to the front of the map and quickly found the location of Changgou on it.

"I guess it's likely that Zu Kuan is coming this time, because Zu Da Le is said to be still in the area of Gwangju. It is impossible to get here so quickly. And our detailed investigation is that Zu Kuan was stationed in Lushan earlier, which is much closer than Zu Dale. If it is really Guanning Tieqi, it can only be under Zu Kuan's command. Soldiers and horses, I just didn't expect that this guy was still thick and thin. He came here quietly and gave us such a game. It's really not an ordinary person. If we weren't careful this time, maybe we would really suffer a big loss here!" After Xiao Tianjian looked at the map and the location of Changgou, he didn't realize that his back was a little cold, and he sweated slightly.

This Changgou is located in the northwest of Liuquan Town. It is an inconspicuous small ravine. Once Xing Tianjun does not find them this time and goes straight to Liuquan Town, they can kill out of Changgou and directly cut off the back road of Xing Tianjun. At that time, Wang Shaoyu will lead his troops out from Yiyang County, and then they can The head blocked Xing Tianjun in the area of Liuquan Town, while Liuquan Town is just located on the north bank of the Luo River. There is a big mountain to the north, and there is basically no way out. If they are allowed to get things done, then the Xing Tianjun will definitely suffer a big loss in this battle. Although it is not necessarily the whole army will be destroyed, but it must be a matter of great damage to vitality.

All the generals also looked at the map, and all of them shouted that it was dangerous. Li Shuanzhu even scolded, "Dude, this officer and army are really gloomy. Unexpectedly, they came up with such a unique plan. Fortunately, the general foresaw their fraud in advance. Otherwise, if we go to fight Liuquan Town this time, we will definitely be blocked by them in Liuquan Town. !

General, how do you think we should fight this battle? We heard that Zu Kuan is not a good stubble. Guan Ning Tieqi under his command has repeatedly defeated Gao Yingxiang and Li Zicheng in Henan, which can be regarded as a hero!"

Xiao Tianjian looked at the map and nodded and said, "Zu Kuan was a general of Zu Dashou in Liaodong in his early years. Because of his military achievements, he was gradually promoted. Now he is ordered to lead a Guanning iron horse into Henan to help Lu Xiangsheng suppress bandits. In more than a year in Henan, he has been fighting against all kinds of volunteers. He is indeed a tough general. And as we all know, I'm afraid that Guan Ning's iron cavalry will rank first among the few strong soldiers that Daming can count now! The 3,000 Guanning iron riders under his command can be called a tough soldier! Moreover, the terrain in this area is relatively flat. Once we meet, I'm afraid we have little chance of winning!

Now that we already know his existence, it is impossible for Zu Kuan to sneak up on our back road again. Therefore, if I expect it well, Zu Kuan should not continue to hide in Changgou now!

In this way, as long as we don't move, they will definitely attack. In this case, we will adapt to all changes and have a duel with Zu Kuan here to see whether it is his Guan Ning's powerful horse or our Xing Tianjun!"

As soon as the generals heard this, they suddenly cheered up and shouted one after another, "I would like to listen to the general's instructions!"

Luo Li even scolded and said, "I've heard of Guan Ning Tieqi for a long time. Unfortunately, I didn't have a chance to meet them in Shanxi before, but today I didn't expect to meet them here! Humph! I'd like to see how powerful Guan Ning Tieqi is!"

Xiao Tianjian took the generals out of the big account. After riding the horse, he walked around the eastern part of Hancheng Town. After looking at the terrain here, he waved his horse whip to the east and said, "If Zu Kuan leads the troops to attack, he can only come here. The north is basically hilly, which is quite unfavorable to his cavalry. And the flat ground of this line is about four miles wide. If we all unfold, the defense line will be too thin. Once he breaks through, the whole line may collapse. It seems that this battle is not easy for us to fight!

Luo Li and Li Shuanzhu, you are both generals. Let's talk about how can we fight this battle? You can't listen to me for everything about war. You have to be alone in the future. It's time for you to think about it! By the way, Zhao Er donkey and Jiang Cheng, both of you, also think about how should we fight this battle?

All the generals grabbed the reeds and jumped off the horses one after another and looked in the direction of Liuquan Town...
