The actions of the Youzhou Army were more vigorous and resolute than anyone could have imagined. (Please search Bayi Chinese Net, the fastest updated novel website!) Early the next morning, an elite cavalry of 4,000 men left Gaoyang and galloped eastward.

This cavalry team is composed of Hu Cong's own soldiers directly under Wang Jun and the elite of Duan Wenyang's department, all of whom are two-horseed, and all of them are warriors skilled in martial arts. Being able to re-assemble a team of this size after a tragic rout undoubtedly proves the great potential of the Youzhou Army. But this is also one of the few troops under Wang Jun's command that can ensure combat effectiveness and loyalty and reliability.

Wang Jun knew very well what the subsequent military action meant, and even more so that such a military operation could only be completed by a real descendant. Therefore, those temporarily conscripted Hu troops were completely left in Gaoyang, and Wang Jun himself personally led the troops to attack. They passed through the wilderness in the northern part of Jizhou, gradually penetrating deep into the complex and high mountains, bypassing a number of cities, villages and towns along the way, without making any stops. Like a swooping falcon, the only thing in its eyes is the prey that is already doomed.

The night of the third day. Wang Jun's troops arrived at Lingshou County, in the northern part of Changshan County.

If the information provided by Fang Qinzhi was correct, Liu Yan was quite slow in using his troops, and in the past few days, he sent his subordinates to several county towns under the jurisdiction of Changshan County, and there was no intention of further eastward. His Chinese army set up a simple camp fifteen miles northwest of Lingshou County, where 6 Yao met with Liu Yan. The two sides have been deliberating for several days, and the content of the discussion includes the strategy of how to continue to suppress the Youzhou shogunate.

Wang Jun personally led the front team up a high slope to look.

The night was so dark that it was impossible to see the road underfoot. A group of Xianbei horsemen rode up their horses nonchalantly, and Wang Jun could only fall behind, and slowly climbed to the top of the slope with the support of several servants.

Looking at the messy grass, under the faint starlight, a stockade can be seen.

"Is this the right place?"

Fang Qinzhi, who was surrounded by the cavalry, nodded again and again: "This is it!" This is it! The villain takes his life as a guarantee! ”

"Hmm......" Wang Jun stroked his beard lightly and looked at the camp. After all, the night was too dark, and he looked at it for a long time, but there was still only a vague outline of the camp in his eyes. Except for the south gate, where there were two columns of torches swaying like stars, the camp was dark and silent.

After all, he was a veteran general who had been rampant in the frontier for many years, and although he came with irrepressible anger and murderous intent, he was not in a hurry to do it at this moment, but ordered the soldiers to choose a hiding place to rest for a while. From Gaoyang to Changshan, it is necessary to cross the entire Zhongshan country. Liu Kun, the assassin of Bingzhou, is a person from Weichang in Zhongshan, and I don't know how many eyeliners there are in the local area. In order to prevent their own traces from being revealed, the whole army has been vigilant for the past two days, and they are already very tired from the march alone.

Taking advantage of the soldiers to disperse to rest in the distance, Wang Jun sent capable scouts to cover them near the camp and capture a few lone soldiers.

About half an hour passed, and the scouts really captured someone, and as soon as they heard the accent, they were the soldiers of the state.

The Youzhou army has its own talents who are good at extorting confessions by torture, and after a little questioning, I learned that this place is indeed a newly built camp, and it is said that there are nobles from Dai County who came here, because he did not want to alarm too much, Liu Yancai deliberately placed him in the military camp outside Lingshou County. Who is the specific comer, this soldier is not in status, but he has never seen it.

But that was enough, and with a casual wave of his hand, one of the guards suddenly drew his sword and killed the captive on the spot. Very good, it seems that what Fang Qinzhi said is correct. Wang Jun's gaze swept over Fang Qinzhi's pale face, and he sneered softly: Who else can the nobles of Daijun make Liu Yan pay so much attention to?

6 Yao and Liu Yan, the two children of the fox and the fake tiger, dare to come to fight my Wang Pengzu's idea? Liu Yueshi is in Jinyang, but he stretched out his hand to the east of Taihang, I will cut off the palm of your outstretched hand today, see what you can do! No matter how much you calculate, you can't count that my king Pengzu actually brought the army here!

Hehe, God gave me a good opportunity, how can I waste it? Under the outflanking of thousands of iron horses, they will definitely be able to kill those 6 Yao. If the Daijun army loses its commander, it is nothing. Our army first took Changshan, blocked the forces of Bingzhou to the west of Taihang, and then relied on the advantage of Changshan County to the Daijun to unify the three counties of Daidi in one fell swoop......

"How? Is this the right time to do it? He asked in a low voice.

Duan Wenyang, who was beside him, looked up at the sky, and with this action, there was a slight impact of iron pieces in the armor: "General, you might as well wait a little longer, the soldiers will rest until the fourth watch, it should be enough to fight." Then it was the time when the enemy slept deepest and deepest, and we will be destroyed by the blow of our iron horses. ”

The defeat at Huiyuan caused many Hu generals who had been relied on by Wang Jun to die in battle, and some of those who fled back, such as Duan Ji and 6 dependents, were alienated because of their clumsy appearance on the battlefield. At present, the most trusted general by Wang Jun is Duan Wenyang. In the Battle of Weiyuan, this fierce general of the Duan Division was arranged in the partial division that blocked the front team of the Daijun Army, so he did not collapse like the main force. Wang Jun was able to get rid of the pursuit of the Daijun army and return to Jicheng, thanks to Duan Wenyang leading the army to suppress the formation, fight and retreat.

Because of this, when Wang Jun reorganized his troops and horses, he placed a considerable number of Hu cavalry under the command of Duan Wenyang, intending to train this young general to be a general who could take charge on his own. On the other hand, since Wang Jun himself is not good at commanding on the battlefield, he does need a credible lieutenant general to provide advice at all times.

Duan Wenyang's answer is undoubtedly correct. Wang Jun bowed slightly and was silent for a long time. And Duan Wenyang always looked at the enemy's camp, and this Xianbei warrior who was accustomed to fighting seemed to exude murderous aura all the time. That feeling even made Wang Jun feel uncomfortable, he shook the hilt of the sword on his waist, and secretly said to himself: "Xianbei people can't be used to the fullest, don't believe it!" After being forced to retreat and merge with the state this time, it is necessary to firmly control the two counties of Zhongshan and Changshan in their own hands. For those Hu'er, you can give them a reward of gold silk, but you must not indulge them to expand their influence in Jizhou......"

"General? General? Just thinking about it, Duan Wenyang asked softly, interrupting Wang Jun's thoughts.

"The soldiers can rest, but the scouts can't relax." Wang Jun said a few words casually.

Seeing Duan Wenyang hanging his head respectfully, he wrapped his cloak around his body with confidence and walked towards the shelter behind the hillside. After all, he was an old man in his fifties, and although he boasted that his energy was barely in his prime, the two full days of turbulence had consumed too much of his energy.

Half an hour later, the sleeping Wang Jun was gently shaken awake.

"General, it's time for us to attack!" It was Duan Wenyang who spoke.

Wang Jun frowned and looked at him: "Now you are the general of the first army, not my personal leader." Why are you still following me like you used to? Go and get the whole team! ”

"Rest assured, General, everyone is ready." Duan Wenyang responded.

Wang Jun propped his arms on the felt blanket and erected his upper body, and saw a neat queue of thousands of people in the col, apparently waiting for a long time.
