In the eyes of mortals, it is not possible to build a massive wall overnight.

Therefore, when the thousand cavalry soldiers verified the authenticity of the city wall with their iron hooves, everyone's eyes widened.

Even if it was Qin Feng, he couldn't help but have some worries.

Click, click, click....... The iron hooves collide with the wall.

Then Herod's neighing sounded, and most of the horses became lame horses and retreated one after another.

Qin Feng was reassured, and shouted triumphantly: "The city wall of the Lone King, how can it be shaken by a mere horsepower. Come on, shoot it! ”

Xiuxiu...... Boom, the Qin army was condescending this time, and ten thousand arrows were fired in unison, and the Qiang soldiers were shot into hedgehogs in an instant, and only a dozen horsemen escaped.

On the city wall, the soldiers of the Qin army, who had been aggrieved for several days, cheered. And the snoring of the sleeping Qin army in the big tent behind the city wall seemed to be mocking the enemy.

Coalition side.

Lost a thousand cavalry, his face was suddenly extremely embarrassed, and he was extremely dissatisfied.

Cao Hong also looked embarrassed, "How is this possible?" There were walls overnight. ”

With the benefit of the city wall, the Qin army was able to rest calmly and accumulate strength. From then on, the breakthrough in Yongzhou will be opened.

Xiahou Yuan was anxious, but seeing the appearance of the fan, he hurriedly said: "My lord will definitely compensate for the loss of your army." ”

Mi Dang's complexion immediately improved. The Qiang people are semi-civilized, and for the big chief of the Qiang people, the people under his command are like cattle and sheep. Being able to get the coveted luxury materials from the Han people and provide them for his own enjoyment is not uncommon for him to have a few subordinates.

Cao Hong secretly scolded the fan for ignoring the life and death of his subordinates. Only know their own interests. At this time, he said to Xiahou Yuan: "General Xiahou, now the Qin army has a city wall. Our army has no advantage in combat strength, and we should do our best to inform the lord and General Xiahoudun of Tongguan about this. ”

The coalition forces have won one victory after another in the past few days. But there are also losses of their own.

The Cao army was 15,000, the Qiang were 20,000, and the Qin army was reinforced by continuous water transportation and 40,000 at this time. It stands to reason that it has 20,000 cavalry, which can top 100,000 infantry. It was precisely by relying on the strength of the Qiang soldiers that the coalition army was able to block the Qin army. However, at this moment, the Qin army has a city wall, and the cavalry can no longer play a role.

Xiahou Yuan sighed, and said in his heart that he had known that this was the case, and he would have fought with all his strength the day before yesterday. However, he looked at the appearance of the fan, and it was estimated that this big chief would not fight to annihilate the whole army. drove the Qin army into the water.

All things coincided to have today's shape.

Xiahou Yuan, as the main general, could only order the collection of troops and report the information to Chang'an and Tongguan.

On the other hand.

Qin Feng always reserved hundreds of boats at the ferry port to guard against a possible water retreat. Now that he has the fortress, he immediately ordered all the ships to go out, return to Xinfeng Port while they can still break the ice and transport, and continue to increase the number of troops in Fenglingdu.

"After accumulating enough strength, it's time for the Lone King to fight back!"

Changan. State Pastoral Office.

Cao Cao summoned a large family to lunch, Cao Ang, Cao Pi's sons, and Bian's with a big belly.

Cao Cao happily raised his glass and smiled: "It snows heavily, I don't expect it to be three days." There must be great news coming. Bian, you are about to give birth, if it is a son, it will be called Cao Zhi. ”

Muketu. Cao Cao vaguely wanted to trample Qin "Feng" under his feet.

"Father, the child is willing to lead the army ......." Cao Ang is an adult. I want to share my father's worries.

Cao Pi's eyes rolled and said, "I am also willing to go." ”

Bian just smiled.

Cao Cao said happily: "Wait to defeat Qin Feng." Then enter the customs and take you to the expedition for your father! With that, he raised his glass and took a drink.

At this moment, Xia Houen came in a panic, "Lord, the front line is urgent, Qin Zijin has built a city wall overnight!" ”

"Poof!" Cao Cao trembled in his heart, and a mouthful of wine was sprayed on the table, and he was blind for a good table of dishes.

"Ahem, ahem...... how is this possible!" Cao Cao's face suddenly darkened, and when he saw the stunned gaze of his wife and children, he hurriedly got up, "The council hall is ...... discussed." ”

in the chamber.

"It's impossible, how is it possible?" Cao Cao only circled around the hall.

Xia Houen said: "Later analysis, it should be poured with water, and it was already long after freezing. ”

Cao Cao was furious and said, "Later analysis? What did you do earlier? ”

Xia Houen was very aggrieved, and said in his heart that I was not on the front line.

"Quickly send someone to Guo Jiajunshi to ask about the countermeasures!"

Tongguan.

"Qin Feng...... At dawn, he was really a contemporary master of war. Guo Jia took the defeat and sighed.

Xiahou in the hall sneered and said, "I heard that it was the idea of the historian next to him, and he is still a woman." Since ancient times, only Qin Zijin uses women! ”

Guo Jia just smiled faintly, and said in his heart that there is no system regulation, and the historian must be a man, not to mention that he is just a historian. Looking at the word living, it is more appropriate to use women.

Guo Jia just smiled, and then sighed and blamed himself: "It's my fault, I didn't expect Qin Feng to freeze into a wall." ”

Xiahoudun shook his head and said a fair word, "I don't blame the military advisor for this matter, Xiahou Yuan has also been delayed for too long, and this weather has only been ten days, and it has changed." ”

Guo Jia was somewhat relieved when he heard this, and also said: "You can't blame General Xiahou Yuan, he only has 20,000 soldiers and horses, although the Qiang tribe is here, it is only a good fight, and it is impossible for them to fight hard." ”

Xiahou said: "The lord sent someone to ask about the future?" ”

All kinds of situations are entangled together, forming the current situation. Under the general trend, Guo Jia, who was at a disadvantage, had no good way, he said: "The soldiers and horses in Tongguan can't move lightly, otherwise they won't be able to resist the Qin army." I built yì everywhere to defend strictly, and Fenglingdu had to hold on to it. When Liu Bei and Lu Bu's reinforcements arrive, they can turn things around. ”

Xiahoudun shook his head and sighed, saying in his heart that I'm a son-in-law, and I don't know what happened to my daughter, as well as my niece...... Ay....... But he said: "What the military advisor said is very true, I will report it to the lord." ”

After Cao Cao received the news, he listened to Guo Jia's advice and ordered all his troops to guard against it and wait for the arrival of reinforcements from Lü Bu and Liu Bei.

However, since ancient times, the defenders have no power to speak of, although they have the power to defend. But it is also an indisputable fact that they are passively beaten.

Five days later, Qin Feng had already stationed 80,000 troops in Fenglingdu. The reinforcements were all cavalry units. The ice on the river is no longer possible to transport by boat. It's also unrealistic to come in droves on the ice. It would be useless to arrive alone, so Qin Feng would not have any more reinforcements.

But with these 80,000 people, it was enough to decide the victory.

Pang Tong, who came with the army, touched his nose and said: "King, the Cao army Xiahou Yuan and the Qiang soldiers can't hold out, although our army can't destroy them, but this winter is full of snow, and the enemy's material consumption is huge. They need food and grass when they come. Second, firewood is needed for heating. The king can send elite cavalry to attack everywhere. Cut off the enemy's food routes, and destroy his troops who went out of the camp to cut wood, and in less than ten days, the enemy would abandon the camp and leave. ”

When Pang Tong said this, he couldn't hide his excitement, came to the sand table, and pointed: "The enemy must retreat from Huayin Mountain Road, but he can ambush in the valley." When the enemy arrives, attack on three sides, and a battle can be broken. ”

Qin Feng was overjoyed, he knew this Huayin. It starts from Tongguan in the east, borders Huaxian County in the west, and depends on the Qinling Mountains in the south. It is bordered by Weishui in the north. The enemy walked to the middle and came out in three ways. It's hard not to win.

So, Qin Feng ordered Huang Zhong to take 10,000 trapped cavalry to ambush in the east of Huaxian. After ordering Wei Yan to lead 10,000 trapped cavalry to ambush in the Qinling Valley, and ordering Gao Shun to lead 10,000 trapped cavalry to ambush in the Weishui dense forest. When the enemy came, it was agreed that the cannon would be fired as a trumpet, and the three ways would be killed.

In the end, Qin Feng asked Gan Ning and Tai Shici to bring 5,000 cavalry each, cut off Cao Cao's grain route, and kill Cao's soldiers who went out of the camp to cut wood.

Within three days, within 200 miles from Chang'an to Fenglingdu, smoke rose everywhere. The Qin army's iron cavalry trampled through the snow to break the enemy, and broke the grain team sent to Fenglingdu by the Cao army from all over the country. For a time, everyone in Yongzhou counties was in danger, and they did not dare to go out with their doors closed. There are also a few small counties, which surrender to Wangfeng.

And around the Fengling crossing Cao Jun Village, on the snowy land, bright red dots. The soldiers of the Cao army who went out of the camp to cut wood and wood were all killed by the cavalry of the Qin army. The Qiang soldiers also attacked to stop the enemy, but the cavalry of the Qin army was good, and the Qiang soldiers suffered losses. Mi Dang didn't go all out, and after losing some soldiers and horses, he began to perfunctory. Only after Cao Jun was killed, he symbolically went out for a walk.

For another three days, heavy snow continued to permeate Fenglingdu.

Cao Jun Dazhai.

Xiahou Yuan looked at the brazier in the big tent, and only a wisp of black smoke remained. His face was blue, restless on the one hand, and frozen on the other.

At this time, Cao Hong walked into the big tent, patted off the snowflakes on his body, and said extremely disappointed: "Miaocai, no, the soldiers haven't eaten for a day, and they haven't baked a fire for three days." Many of the soldiers had frostbite and were now hungry. If the Qin army kills him, he will definitely die! ”

How could Xiahou Yuan not know his intentions, rubbed his face, and said after being a little more energetic: "However, the messenger who asked the lord has not returned?" ”

"Ahh......h Cao Hong sneezed, wiped off his nose, shook his hand and said: "The general will not be ......subject to the foreign military order, the heavy snow is not conducive to transmitting the news, if we wait for the messenger to return, we will already die here." ”

"That's it!" Xiahou Yuan, as a general, was also decisive, and said: "This will order the whole army to immediately open and return to Tongguan." ”

On the other hand, the Qin army side, the king's tent.

Several large braziers, full of red and vigorous charcoal, warm as spring in the tent.

Qin Feng said with a smile: "Xiahou Yuan's army has already moved, and it is thought that it is about to retreat. We followed him, and together with the three ambushes, we wiped him out. ”

Pang Tong has been pondering how to wipe out the enemy in the past few days, and at this moment, standing in front of the sand table with his hands in his cuffs, he said: "King, our army in Huayin will win." Seeing that the Qiang soldiers have not been able to work hard these days, if they fail, Mi Dang will definitely lead the troops back to the Qiang people. ”

Qin Feng heard the words and recalled, and said: "That Qiang King Fan heard that it is a heroic hero, and this fan is much worse, and he must not be allowed to escape." ”

Pang Tong nodded yes and said, "Midang has 20,000 cavalry, and it is likely to break through the ambush circle. The king can set up a pocket array in the north of Huayin, and wait for it to enter the ....... ”

"Tie your pockets and punch them!" Qin Fengxin said that this kind of tactics is clear, and the good routines used by the ancestors of later generations to fight devils are unpleasant.

So, Qin Feng didn't care about the retreating Xiahou Yuan, and led the remaining 50,000 soldiers and horses, and after Xiahou Yuan retreated, he set up a pocket array in the north of Huayin.

Huayin Mountain Road.

Tens of thousands of troops of Cao and Qiang marched in despair, and the banners were no longer fought, dragging on the snow. The horses also hung their heads and their noses emitted white smoke.

Xiahou Yuan and Cao Hong, who were the leaders, occasionally glanced at each other, but they were not in the mood to speak. And the fans on the side are wondering when Cao Cao's gift will arrive. The Qiang people owe Cao Cao almost a favor, if he doesn't give it, he doesn't bother to work for him here.

For another half a day, when the coalition forces entered the junction, they only heard the sound of artillery echoing in the surrounding mountains, as if they were about to blow up the mountains. Then the earthquake trembled, and in the shouting of killing, endless people and horses rushed to kill.

Xiahou Yuan and Cao Hong were both heartbroken, and they lost their voices: "It's not good, it's ambushed!" (To be continued......)
