In the afternoon, Lin Zhengbiao got the news that the advance of the Sui army had been killed a hundred miles away, which made him extremely anxious, he couldn't wait any longer, and hurriedly came to the city to discuss countermeasures with Lu Ping. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

At the head of the city, the soldiers are busy carrying all kinds of rolling wood and stones, tens of thousands of soldiers are deployed in various parts of Yuzhang City, Lu Ping is directing craftsmen to install trebuchets, at this time, some soldiers shouted: "The lord is here!" ”

Lu Ping turned around, only to see Lin Zhengbiao walking briskly with more than a dozen of his subordinates, Lu Ping hurriedly greeted him and saluted, "See the lord!" ”

Lin Zhengbiao waved his hand and asked worriedly, "Is there any news?" ”

"Back to the lord, the lowly position is also waiting for news, in terms of time, the spies sent by the lowly position should have returned."

As soon as the words came, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and everyone hurriedly looked down at the city, only to see a soldier galloping towards the city gate.

"Is that him?" Lin Zhengbiao asked.

Lu Ping nodded, pretending to be puzzled: "It's him, but it should be three people, why only one came back?" ”

After a short time, the cavalry entered the city and was led to the head of the city by the soldiers defending the city, and the soldiers knelt down to report, "Xia Xun see the lord, see the general!" ”

"Why is it only you and the other two brothers?" Lu Ping asked.

"General Hui, we encountered a group of Sui scouts in the south of Huancheng County, and the other two brothers were unfortunately killed by arrows, and they rode two horses to get rid of the pursuit of the Sui scouts."

"Don't talk about this, let's talk about the situation of the Sui army, what's going on with their water army?" Lin Zhengbiao on the side asked anxiously.

"Back to the lord, the Sui army warships have retreated to the Yangtze River, I heard that tens of thousands of Tang troops crossed the river to attack Qichun County and Lujiang County, Hefei is in danger, and the guards will ask the King of Qi for help."

Lin Zhengbiao slapped his forehead and said excitedly: "The sky has eyes!" ”

Lin Zhengbiao was ecstatic in his heart, the Tang Army finally sent troops, and his foundation could be saved.

Lu Ping hurriedly said: "Lord, the reason why Zhang Xuan did not go north with the navy must be that he wanted to capture Yuzhang City quickly, and then return to the army after we were completely annihilated, we can take advantage of the Jianghuai crisis, Zhang Xuan's mentality of being anxious to withdraw the army and fight a roundabout battle with him, defending the city is the next policy, we should go away, so that they can't catch up and have to withdraw the army." ”

"What do you mean, we will withdraw south to Yichun County?"

Lu Ping shook his head, "The Sui army has 10,000 cavalry, we can't outrun the cavalry, I mean go east!" ”

Lin Zhengbiao suddenly brightened, "Go to Poyang County!" ”

In the morning, he said that killing Poyang County and Jiangnan was just a joke, but he didn't expect that this joke would come true.

Lu Ping said slowly: "In fact, the lord's suggestion is very correct, the Sui army's warships went north, so that their main force could not cross the Ganshui, we took a cargo ship to cross the river to Poyang County, the Sui army could not catch up, and could only retreat north to deal with the Tang army, then we can not only recover Poyang County, but even kill to the south of the Yangtze River as the lord said, this is a golden opportunity, to say that we can keep the foundation, but to look at the big one, and even achieve hegemony, it depends on whether the lord wants to do a big one?" ”

Lin Zhengbiao's body was bleeding **** blood, an original joke gradually became a reality, he seemed to see the day he ascended the throne as the emperor, the blood began to boil in his veins, he did not hesitate to give an order, "Pass my order, the whole army immediately pack up and go to the river to assemble!" ”

.........

Yuzhang County has always been the territory of the navy, but also the logistics of the navy supply of the important place, hundreds of cargo ships quietly moored on the Ganshui wharf, these cargo ships are Lin Zhengwei's property, but now they belong to Lin Zhengbiao, because the Sui army has appeared a hundred miles away, so Lin Zhengbiao's 40,000 troops evacuated extremely quickly and simply, under the strong request of Lu Fei, each soldier only carried a small amount of dry food on the ship, and all the grain and grass baggage were discarded.

"We are in a race against time, the Sui army is coming soon, don't let us become the second Meng Ghost Ghost!" Lu Fei yelled in a hurry.

Thinking of the fate of Meng Ghost and his army, the soldiers were all terrified, and many of them didn't even want their belongings, just packed up a little soft, and quickly evacuated with the army.

Groups of soldiers walked towards the cargo ships, and the cargo ships full of soldiers slowly left the dock and headed for the other side of the Gan River.

At this time, Lu Fei rode to the dock and said to Lin Zhengbiao, who was about to get on the boat: "Lord, we can't cheapen the Sui army, and we will burn all the grain and property in the warehouse." ”

Lu Fei's suggestion touched Lin Zhengbiao's heart, of course he didn't want to leave his property and food to the Sui army, Lin Zhengbiao immediately agreed to Lu Fei's plan, "General Lu can lead three thousand troops to deal with the aftermath, don't stay for a long time, beware of the Sui army killing at any time!" ”

"Don't worry, my lord! The lowly will be evacuated in time. ”

Lu Fei glanced at his brother meaningfully, "Second brother, the lord will hand it over to you." ”

"Big brother, don't worry! Be careful yourself. ”

Lü Fei turned his horse's head and led the 3,000 soldiers of his headquarters to run towards Yuzhang County.

Lu Ping and Lin Zhengbiao got on the big boat, and the big boat started and headed for the opposite shore.

A total of 100 cargo ships transported a total of 40,000 troops across the Ganshui River in three trips, and when the 100 cargo ships returned, only the last 3,000 troops led by Lu Fei were left on the west bank.

At this time, Lu Fei ordered his soldiers: "Go and call all the boatmen off the boat, I have something to say to them!" ”

.......

40,000 troops crossed the Ganshui, then all the way to the west, they did not bring much food, each person carried ten catties of rice, at most to maintain seven or eight days of consumption, but not that they had supplies after the Ganshui, after the Ganshui, they were still in the territory of Yuzhang County, after three days to arrive at Yishui, after the Yishui before entering the territory of Poyang County, but it would take two more days to reach Poyang County, which had grain stocks.

That is to say, they have to walk for five days before they may have supplies, and the food they carry is not much, and it will be insufficient to eat a little relaxed, and there must be no accidents in between, otherwise it will delay their time and make them not have enough food to spend.

Lin Zhengbiao led the army to walk for two days in one breath, and at noon on this day, the soldiers were a little exhausted, their physical strength was seriously overdrawn, and the marching speed was like a snail crawling, Lin Zhengbiao was also exhausted, and his war horse kept snorting, and he was about to die.

At this time, Lu Ping stepped forward and persuaded: "Lord, take a rest!" There were still many soldiers behind who did not follow. ”

"Rest in place!"

Lin Zhengbiao commanded listlessly, he slipped off the horse himself, lay on the grass and didn't want to move, the soldiers rested on the spot one after another, generally a group of five people, each contributed a handful of rice, and everyone set up a fire to cook.

Lin Zhengbiao drank his saliva and scolded: "I can't even see a ghost after two days of walking, where are all the people dead?" ”

A guard next to him said: "The lord doesn't know, this area is close to Poyang Lake, the terrain is low-lying, once the Yangtze River rises, the water level of Poyang Lake will also rise, and it will be flooded here, so there is no human population in this area, the villages are in the south, and you can see the village fifty or sixty miles to the south." ”

"No wonder! How far is it from Yishui? ”

"Back to the lord, there are about one hundred and twenty miles left."

Lin Zhengbiao's head was big for a while, wouldn't it be tomorrow to arrive, at this time, Lin Zhengbiao looked left and right, but Lu Ping was gone, so he asked, "Where is General Lu?" ”

"General Lu seems to have gone to pick up the brothers behind."

"How many people are behind who haven't followed?"

"About five or six thousand."

"A bunch of useless rice buckets!" Lin Zhengbiao scolded in a low voice.

At that moment, a soldier pointed ahead and shouted, "Look, what is that?" ”

Everyone looked ahead, only to see the dust in front of them, the yellow dust covered the sky and the sun, just like a sandstorm, at this time the earth also began to tremble, everyone looked at each other, I don't know what happened, suddenly, the soldiers in front began to shout in horror, countless soldiers rushed to this side.

"What happened?" Lin Zhengbiao asked angrily.

"Lord!"

One of his own soldiers stumbled and ran, shouting, "Cavalry! The cavalry of the Sui army is here! ”

Lin Zhengbiao was taken aback, wasn't the Sui army intercepted in Hexi by Ganshui? How can there be cavalry here?

"Lord, get on the horse!"

The guards helped Lin Zhengbiao onto the war horse, and at this time, Lin Zhengbiao saw that the overwhelming cavalry was coming from the front, and it had already entered his army, and it could be seen that the Sui cavalry came very suddenly, which caught his army off guard.

"Lord, the south is also killed!"

Lin Zhengbiao turned around, only to see that a cavalry of thousands of people was also killed in the woods in the south, only two hundred steps away from him, led by a young general in silver armor and silver armor, holding plum blossoms and bright silver spears, white horses like dragons, red tassels flying on the top of the helmet, silver spears in his hands like pear blossoms flying, corpses everywhere he passed, all of them were killed by one shot, the white horse general of the Sui army saw Lin Zhengbiao and urged the horse to kill him.

Lin Zhengbiao was so frightened that he turned his horse's head and fled, his own soldiers shouted, and more than 100 people rushed up to stop the Sui generals who were killed.

This Sui general is the white horse silver spear general Luo Cheng, the 30,000 troops led by Zhang Xuan have laid a net here, waiting for the thief army to get into the pocket, Luo Cheng led 3,000 cavalry to ambush in the woods in the south, which is exactly where Lin Zhengbiao rests.

Luo Cheng didn't know Lin Zhengbiao, but Lin Zhengbiao wore a golden helmet, revealing his extraordinary identity, Luo Cheng urged the horse to kill, but was blocked by more than 100 soldiers, he was furious, the spear stabbed left and right, and killed more than 30 people in just a moment, but Lin Zhengbiao's personal soldiers were all afraid of death, refused to back down, and desperately stopped Luo Cheng.

At this time, hundreds of Sui soldiers came to kill and blocked part of the enemy army for Luo Cheng, so that Luo Cheng could get out of the encirclement, but Lin Zhengbiao fled without a trace, so angry that Luo Cheng scolded, turned his horse's head and killed these enemy troops who blocked the way, and his anger was vented on Lin Zhengbiao's personal soldiers.
