Around the street pavilion, the terrain is very steep, and the natural environment also creates a difficult condition for the march.

If the Longxi army wants to cross the street pavilion, it will take time.

It takes a minimum of two days.

That's the ideal budget.

But if there is a little accident, it will take three or five days, it is very likely.

Although the street pavilion is needed to attack, it must be defended, and the soldiers must fight for it, but in fact, the terrain here is not suitable for the battlefield, because here, the troops cannot be used, and it is easy to suffer.

"Speed up a little!"

It's been a day, some soldiers and horses have also passed, as long as they come one more day, the Longxi army can cross over, but Ma Teng always felt that there was an uneasy emotion circulating in his heart, and he couldn't help but sweat a little in his palms.

"No!"

General Li Kanzhong also realized the urgency at this time, and made every effort to make his subordinates hurry quickly.

"Report!"

Liang Xing rode his horse and galloped over.

"Say!"

Ma Teng took a deep breath, his voice as cold as ice.

"Lord, more than ten miles ahead, in the mountain stream of the corner, I found traces of an ambush by soldiers and horses!"

"Flag!"

"Yellow Heaven God!"

"The Yellow Turbans?" Ma Teng's eyes widened: "Are you sure?" ”

"There should be no doubt!"

Liang Xing arched his hand and said: "I have fought with the Yellow Turban Army, I have seen their battle flags, they are exactly the same, even if they are imitated, it is difficult to imitate the charm of the pastoral army, the pastoral army is neat and tidy, even if it is far away, you can feel it!" ”

"Under the command of the herdsman, the soldiers and horses, the Yellow Turban Army!" Li Kan added: "In the whole world, there are many people who believe in the gods of the Yellow Sky, but this is the only one for the battle flag!" ”

"Shouldn't the Yellow Turban Army be in Hanzhong?"

Ma Teng's face was gloomy: "Why are you here?" ”

At the beginning, the soldiers on Nanshan did not show their numbers, even if they were considered to be herdsmen, they thought that they were from the battlefield of Jincheng and were the herdsmen on the battlefield of Xiliang, so they didn't care very much.

But now the battle banner of the god in the yellow sky is exposed, that is, these are the Yellow Turban Army.

The battlefield of the Yellow Turban Army of the Herdsmen is not here, in Hanzhong, there was a fierce fight with them not long ago, and they are very familiar with each other.

"We can be here, and so can they!"

Li Kan thought about it, but he was a little calm, and said to Ma Teng: "This is not surprising! ”

"What you mean, he followed us back and forth and entered Liangzhou!"

"Maybe you entered Liangzhou earlier than us!"

"I don't understand!"

"Lord, Hanzhong has passed through Wudu, from Qishan to Hanyang, and walked through the street pavilion to pass Longguan, what is that?" Li Kan asked.

"Chen Cang?"

Ma Teng's inspiration moved, and he immediately understood: "They want to take advantage of Xiliang to raid Guanzhong!" ”

"Nine times out of ten!"

Li Kan said: "Unfortunately, although our intentions are different, we are going around and around, but we have encountered here!" ”

They want to go back to Liangzhou.

And the herdsman wanted to use Liangzhou to cross the Longguan Pass and enter the Guanzhong.

Come across.

"The brave wins!" Ma Teng clenched his fists, and his whole body was like a rainbow: "Since we have met, let's fight, no matter what, I must enter Liangzhou, and I must not let anyone stop me!" “

The obsession of seizing Liangzhou, burning like fire, is burning his heart, making him do whatever it takes.

But on the battlefield, Ma Teng is still very calm, even if he wants to fight, he must know himself and his opponent.

"How many soldiers do they have now?" Ma Teng asked.

"More than three thousand!" Liang Xing replied.

"The strength of the first battalion of the herdsmen is about that!"

Li Kan thought for a while, and his eyes were a little puzzled: "Isn't it the main force of the Yellow Turban Army?" ”

"Are you sure?" Ma Teng was also puzzled.

"I've personally investigated and made sure that there are no more ambushes around, but the terrain around here is complicated, I will continue to send scouts, continue to keep an eye on them, and report any trouble!"

"Order, all soldiers, stay put, watch out carefully, wait for the military order!"

"No!"

"Yang Qiu!"

"In!"

"Order your troops to lead the vanguard of the army, go to Break, and take it as soon as possible!" Ma Teng did not dare to risk the whole army to continue to cross the street pavilion, after all, there was a battalion in front of the ambush, maybe there was an army in ambush, and it must be sorted out before it could continue to advance.

"No!"

Yang Qiu, the general of Xiliang, took the order and left.

………………

A day later, Yang Qiu led the army back from the front to resume his life.

"Report to the lord, I have completely defeated this department and occupied the corner, so as to ensure that the army can cross this mountain road smoothly!"

Yang Qiuyu said.

The battle was a little easy, and after a long day of attacking, the Yellow Turban Army showed a routing formation, and then began to withdraw from its original position, which they successfully captured.

"Go ahead and quickly cross the kiosk!" Ma Teng couldn't wait to order: "Liang Xing, scout keep an eye on me!" ”

"Yes!"

The ministries continued to move forward, intending to quickly cross the kiosk.

But after walking less than fifteen miles, another situation appeared.

"Repay the Lord!"

Scout Lieutenant Liang Xing quickly reported: "The Yellow Turban Army has appeared in front again, it is still the battle flag of the Yellow Sky God, and it is also a battalion of more than 3,000 soldiers, which is occupying our choke point into Hanyang!" ”

"Lord, something is wrong!" Li Kan walked up and said in a low voice.

"I know!"

Ma Teng's uneasy premonition seemed to have come true: "I suspect that the main force of the Yellow Turban is already here, but they intercept it in batches, and their intentions are unknown!" ”

"The terrain of the street pavilion is complicated, the army is fighting, and it is impossible to cooperate with the battle formation, it is easy to fight into a melee, which is not a good thing for the enemy or themselves, so they do not have the main force to attack!" Li Kan pondered for a moment: "But it can be blocked in batches, but it can block our street pavilion, the time is too long, and it is not good for our situation!" ”

"On the battlefield, morale is especially important, again and again, again and again, and again and again!"

The young general Ma Dai stood up, faced Ma Teng, and arched his hand and said: "Is the enemy army frustrating our morale, one after another, all the way for a hundred miles, as long as they snipe us three or five times, they can make our soldiers become irritable, when the time comes, they will inevitably be demoralized, and they will attack with all their might, how can we block!" ”

"Quite possibly!"

Ma Teng gritted his teeth.

"So what do we do now?" The generals looked at each other.

"Youtu!"

Ma Teng let out a low snort.

"In!"

The left and right guards opened the bamboo tube on their backs, took out a delicate marching map, opened it left and right, and presented it in front of Ma Teng.

Ma Teng's tiger eyes burst into sharp eyes, landed on the marching map, and carefully looked at the direction of the terrain.

"Have you contacted Zhang Xiu?" After half a ring, Ma Teng suddenly opened his mouth and asked.

"Someone has been sent to get in touch, but it will take time."

"Hurry up!"

"No!"

"Herald Ma Chao!" Ma Teng squinted his eyes, his eyes were hunting, and he was making a decision in his heart: "Give up Nanshan, don't care about the enemy troops on Nanshan, and immediately open the way to the north!" ”

"Open the way north?"

The generals were puzzled for a moment, but soon someone directly turned the horse's head and went to the Nanshan Mountain behind to order the carriage.

"We're not in Hanyang anymore!"

Ma Teng said.

"So where are we going?"

"Settle down!"

Jieting goes west, Hanyang County, Liangzhou, and Jieting goes north, which is Anding County, Liangzhou, but this road is more difficult to walk, and it is more difficult than Hanyang to enter.

…………………………………………

Longguan exit, street pavilion to the south, about 30 miles.

A nameless mountain, at the foot of the mountain.

One by one, the battle flags of the gods in the yellow sky hunted in the wind.

In a makeshift military tent.

"Report to General Zhonglang, the Longxi Army has withdrawn from Nanshan!"

"Probe!"

"No!"

"Report to General Zhonglang, the main force of the Longxi Army, did not continue to move westward, and temporarily postponed the attack on our army's soldiers and horses guarding the western front, and the current movement is unknown!"

"Keep watching!"

"No!"

"Report to General Zhonglang, find the vanguard of the Longxi Army, cross the street pavilion town area, and move north!"

"Continue to investigate their forces and movements in the north!"

"No!"

“……”

One by one, the news came back, and the situation of the entire battlefield, as if it was like a deduction on the sand table, was emerging in front of Huang Shao's eyes, but he was a little dazzled, and he couldn't see it very clearly.

The battlefield is unpredictable, and no matter how much it is arranged, it must follow the changes, and there is no immutable deployment.

Even if the Yellow Turban Army is deployed, it depends on the battlefield environment.

"General Zhonglang, it seems that they have given up their plan to enter Hanyang!" A lieutenant whispered.

"Could it be a false move, break our guard, and then force your way into the mountain road, tear through our defensive line, and directly enter Hanyang?" Some will question.

"We have everything, we need the best and most comprehensive preparation!"

Huang Shao thought for a while and shouted in a low voice: "Hu Cai! ”

"In!"

Sima of the Right Army, concurrently serving as the captain of the fifth battalion of the Yellow Turban Army, was on standby.

"You immediately lead the army, it is laborious to respond, he has been holding Nanshan for many days, and there will be many casualties, now that Xiliang has withdrawn from Nanshan, take him down first, and then talk about it!"

"No!"

Hu Cai nodded and took the order.

In the camp, everyone's eyes were already staring at this temporarily built sand table, and the terrain on the sand table was circling in a roundabout way, very complicated, and they were a little dizzy when they looked at it.

"The first step, forcing them to go north and placing the battlefield in the northern suburbs of Jieting, should have worked!"

Huang Shao pointed to a piece of terrain on the topographic map and said: "Now it depends on our arrangement, whether we can force them into this place, this is the most favorable place for us to fight, after all, the Longxi Army is also the elite of Xiliang, and it must not be underestimated!" ”

"General Zhonglang, the night is long and dreamy, we may not be able to successfully force them into the battlefield we want, once they guess our layout in advance, change lanes in battle, our layout, will be in vain!"

A young general walked out and said: "I think that the key is to intervene in the battle as soon as possible, don't think about besieging them, at least entangle them, the more greedy you are, the easier it is to be lost by them, and when the main force goes north, but it is empty, we will be unable to investigate!" ”

Military establishment, in addition to the left and right generals, there are a lot of generals below, these generals, is the future of the army, most of them are martial arts students who graduated from the martial arts hall, young blood, the art of war, just lack of experience, there is a lot of room for growth in the future.

This young general, who graduated from the Hanzhong Military Preparation Hall, entered the Yellow Turban Army a year ago, and is also deeply loved by Huang Shaozhi on weekdays, so he dares to speak, even if he is in the court, he dares to talk to the main general Huang Shao.
