"This southern thief is really too deceitful! Huang Quan and his ilk are just rebellious, but they won a small victory for a while, and they dared to underestimate no one in our country! ”

They are close to each other, there is little shelter in the middle, and there is a slight movement in Liangjun in the south, and Peng Biao naturally knows. So when this information was on the desk, Peng Biao was also angry and happy, and the little raccoon dog in the south really underestimated him, he didn't take the initiative to attack Liang County, this kid actually dared to take the initiative to send troops!

As for the joy, of course, it was because the kid took the initiative to attack and came to find death, which saved Peng Biao a lot of trouble.

Peng Biao is in the prime of life, although he has black beard and black hair, he is an out-and-out beard. He was a burly man, with long arms, and once rode a horse alone and chased hundreds of enemies with a lance, and was a rising star of Zhao State's wisdom and bravery.

At this time, he was gently scraping his short beard under his chin with his fingernails, his eyes slightly open and closed, like a tiger lying on the table, listening to the general's report on the movements of the Yuzhou army of Liang County, although there was no lack of contempt, but his expression showed that he attached importance to the enemy of Liang County.

Huainan, where he sits, is the gateway to the entire Huaixi, and the old town of the Zu clan's old enemy, the importance of the location is not at all comparable to the Huang Quan who hangs in the south. After months of confrontation, and repeated rangers peeping and spying, they already knew the situation in the south.

Peng Biao also knows a lot about Shen Zhezi, the commander of the Nanren, and to be honest, there is no lack of surprise in his heart. What do you think of this Nanxiang raccoon dog, but he is just a haozong guinea dog, and it is really impressive that he can defeat or even annihilate Huang Quan in the field.

In order to have a deeper understanding of the opponent of Liang County, he even moved from Shouchun to Huainan City, and personally led the rangers around Liang County City to watch for a long time. It's just that the more I look, the more hesitant I am in my heart, and some of them are not sure.

The turmoil in Jiangdong has not passed far away, and it stands to reason that it is impossible to accumulate strength to cross the river to fight so quickly. This is the consensus of the entire Zhao State, and Peng Biao also has this kind of idea, so in the previous battle of Hefei, the reaction was a little sluggish.

Then the Liang County City rose up under his nose, and the investment of manpower and materials regardless of the cost made Peng Biao doubt his old knowledge of Jiangdong. Such a scene is really in front of him, who dares to say that Jiangdong has been chaotic and tired for a long time?

So after weighing it for a long time, Peng Biao still decided to maintain pressure on Liang Jun and not send troops. It's not a cowardice, it's a decision made by weighing the pros and cons.

He is not a reckless person who only knows how to kill, and he knows in his heart that the Lord does not vigorously manage the idea of Shouchun going south. Otherwise, it would not have been possible to not hold on to Shouchun after the army broke through Shouchun the year before last, but only returned the captivity.

At present, the situation in the country is slightly unstable, and it is not suitable for a large-scale use of troops. Moreover, in the early years, the lord regretted that he could not break through the Han Dynasty and go straight to the river in the early years, so he had a lot of intentions in Xiangyang, and the war was very fierce. Second, in the direction of Huaiyin in Xuzhou, with the Qingxu Naval Army, they repeatedly went south to prey, and Dingkou made a lot of gains.

And Shouchun here, although it is located in Huaizhong, but the ancestral family has been here for a long time, and the people's hearts are more rebellious, and it is not easy to drive straight in, so it is not a breakthrough that is important in the country at present.

It is precisely because he is well aware of this situation that Peng Biao also understands that when he goes out of Huainan, the focus is not to sweep south, but to ensure the integrity of this Huaisi front, and at the same time prepare to deal with the left and right.

Moreover, the fact that the Nanren were able to eliminate Huang Quan so quickly and invest such a large amount of manpower and material resources can be imagined as a direction that the entire Jiangdong Imperial Court attaches great importance to. Although the southerners are weak, Peng Biao will not be confident enough to challenge the southerners with his own strength.

Although there is always a sense of crisis in front of Peng Biao when he sees an important town in the south rising in front of his eyes, this is also an opportunity for Peng Biao. The southerners have invested a lot in this, and they will inevitably have great hopes. He reported the situation in detail and hoped that the country would pay attention to this side and tilt its military investment.

However, Peng Biao's reply from the country disappointed Peng Biao, turning a blind eye to his complaints, but strictly ordered him to guard Huainan, and if there was any more loss of land and defeat and humiliation of the country's prestige, he would be immediately punished!

The misfortune is that his main general Shi Cong not only let him keep Huainan Shouchun, but also repeatedly urged him to go south to fight a big battle, which is simply inexplicable!

Shi Cong's thoughts, Peng Biao can also be a little bit of a little bit of a bit. This lord and Shi Kan are both fake sons of the lord, but Shi Kan has to be crowned a prince, so he is quite resentful in his heart, thinking that the lord's judgment is unfair, and he has always wanted to strive for performance. Huang Quan, who had lost the battle earlier, was a subordinate of King Zhongshan, and if he could win here, he would not only embarrass King Zhongshan, but also make Shi Cong show off.

Peng Biao also had a secret hatred for Shi Cong's instructions that he ignored the facts and blindly only wanted to take credit for his own life. If you want to use your life, at least you have to send reinforcements to increase your troops!

Huainan is not the focus of attack and defense here, Peng Biao's headquarters is here, not only to hold the Shouchun City, but also to suppress the many dock wall masters who are ready to move in this realm, and at the same time shoulder the task of planning to control the war, which is already lacking.

However, Shi Cong also ignored his request, and just led his troops to attack the dock wall in the old land of Yuzhou, and plundered people and goods, which is really hateful!

Despite this, Peng Biao couldn't help but pay attention to Shi Cong's wishes. Now that the factions in the country have been formed, each of them wants to attack each other, and he is not a subordinate minister, if no one resists the pressure for him, Huang Quan, who was taken out and thrown to the lonely city of Hefei, is his future fate!

So recently, Peng Biao is also not lacking in anxiety, the construction of Liangjun City is becoming more and more perfect, it has become a system, and heavy troops are stationed, and his department is not good at tackling fortifications, and it is not easy to gnaw this hard bone.

But if you can't give Liang County a heavy blow this winter, not to mention that Shi Cong can't explain it, Liang County alone has been building for several months, and the winter may shrink inside, but there will inevitably be a big move after the spring warmth in the coming year, and the pressure he will face will be even greater!

When he was in a dilemma, the southern thieves on the opposite side actually took the initiative to attack, which was simply excellent news for Peng Biao. The weather is freezing and the waterway is scrapped, which is the time for the cavalry to be powerful! It is simply foolish to choose this time to take the initiative to start a war!

Between Huainan and Liang County, although there is no place to defend the shape of the victory, there is no lack of fortified towns. As long as you clear the wilderness, drive the people of the countryside to the city to defend it, gallop outside, intrude along the way and wait for opportunities to attack the grain road, and even take advantage of the emptiness of Liang County to go straight to the other party's back town, this battle will be won!

Such a tactic was originally a classic arrangement of using cavalry to fight against foot soldiers, and it appeared in Peng Biao's mind without thinking about it. Once the Jiangdong foot soldiers are strong, once they take the initiative to attack, they will inevitably rely on water conservancy. Therefore, the Shen Zhezi in the south sent troops in winter, in Peng Biao's opinion, it was simply arrogant and looking for death!

However, this idea did not exist in his mind for a long time, and Peng Biao suddenly realized that if he arranged it like this, it would be a copy of the Battle of Hefei! Huang Quan was also a strong wall, gave up the fortified city, and wanted to rely on his cavalry to attack the field, but he died near Tushui!

Thinking about it like this, Peng Biao hesitated again and did not give the order for a long time. Huang Quan's defeat was incomprehensible, although Peng Biao also asked Huang Quan's troops to figure it out, but those pawns were busy fleeing for their lives, how could they explain clearly. Just a few words, absurd, but made Peng Biao even more confused.

It is taboo to hesitate in battle, Peng Biao immediately summoned his generals after a little contemplation: "Divide 2,000 people to increase the army in Shouchun, and guard the city without loss!" All of them will be driven into the city within a hundred miles, and those who do not obey will be killed immediately! Chi to all departments of Huai, each of them is firm! ”

Strictly guarding against Shouchun is also Peng Biao's combat style, first protecting the fundamentals and then seeking merit. However, he didn't think that Shouchun would be in any danger, the ancestral clan of this city had been in business for many years, and the city was high and wide, far from being broken.

Moreover, the waterways are exhausted in winter, and it is difficult for the Yuzhou water army to move, although Xuzhou has been moving frequently recently, but it is still pressed under Xuyi, and it is difficult to cross the border to cater to it. The only thing that can be troubled is that those dock wall masters in the realm may have to respond in groups, but the inner and outer rings of Shouchun City can be quickly extinguished even if there is chaos.

What's more, there are many forts in Shouchun to the east, although they do not control each other, but if Shouchun loses, Xuzhou will not be good, and will never ignore it.

Therefore, the focus is still on the army in the south, and they cannot be allowed to break through the Huainan defense line and directly attack the city of Shouchun. Therefore, Peng Biao planned to personally lead the army to meet the enemy, but he wanted to see if the southern soil horse was really arrogant and looking for death or if there was another arrangement!

As soon as he made a decision, Peng Biao ordered his subordinates to lead their own troops to deploy defenses, and he himself led thousands of cavalry to leave the city directly to meet the opponent's main force. Even if you can't fight, you can escape!

Peng Biao's headquarters sat in Huainan, far from Huang Quan's long-trapped division, thousands of cavalry were all two horses, after leaving Huainan, swept the countryside, broke many Jin strongholds, one drove the people to the city, and the other took food along the way.

Running all the way south, Peng Biao's department soon arrived at Huliangshu, the closest to Liang County in Huainan. This fortress is located on a hill in the countryside, which resembles a tiger's spine, hence its name. Originally, it was just an abandoned dock wall, but because Liang County rose rapidly, Peng Biao sent people to repair and operate it as an outpost of Nanwang.

The scale of Huliangshu is not large, hoarding some grain and grass and more than 100 soldiers, and there are originally more than 200 ranger scouts. When Peng Biao arrived, it was small and difficult to stay. However, he didn't want to defend at all, and as soon as he arrived, he summoned the commander of the army and asked, "Where have the southern thieves arrived?" ”

"Not yet out of the country."

The commander lowered his head and replied, seeing that Peng Biao's face was already unkind, he was busy and said in detail: "The night before, I peeked at the camp of the southern thieves, and it seemed that there was an assembly, and then the troops came out, and they immediately flew to report. But the thief stayed for ten miles, and yesterday he traveled thirty miles and stayed, and he has not left Tu Shang so far, and he is still a hundred miles away......"

Still a hundred miles away? When Peng Biao heard this, his face turned dark, Huliang Shu was already the frontline fortress closest to Liang County, and he could even see the water waves in the summer water. The southern thieves sent troops the day before yesterday, and they are still a hundred miles away, and in two days and three nights, they haven't even traveled fifty miles!

What is this intended to do? Outing? Is that Nanxiang raccoon dog reliable, and is he coming to fight Huainan? Or is it a pretense just to?
