Chapter 373: Turn the tide
A flower bloomed, and the words were both ends. Just as Wei Jie and others led more than 10,000 Jin troops toward Huainan, Duanmu and Zhang Xiong, who were seriously injured, avoided all the patrol posts of the Qin army and came to the woods less than five miles away from Huainan City without any danger. This woods were the woods hiding in the assault camp before!
However, Duanmuhe was discouraged. The Former Qin army had more than 50,000 people, and had already formed a formation in front of Huainan City and was ready to attack the city at any time. There were less than 200 defenders in the city, and most of them were wounded. Duanmuhe was clear about this. He didn't understand where these Qin troops at the city emerged from. Fu Rong was so unfathomable?
"General Zhang, we can't get into Huainan City anymore. Where will we go next?"
Duanmuhe took Zhang Xiong off his back and supported him to rest on a big tree, while saying helplessly, "They are already at the end of their way now!"
"Help me get up and see..." Zhang Xiong said weakly, and he also struggled to stand up with the tree.
Duanmu He had just sat on the ground and gasped. Zhang Xiong's physique was rare in the world. Along the way, Duanmu He was also very tired. Seeing this, he hurriedly got up and went over to support Zhang Xiong.
"General, what are you doing?"
"Help me get up and take a look, it makes no sense!" Zhang Xiong showed a deep thought expression and whispered.
"What's wrong?"
Although Duanmuhe is also a smart person, his talents are mostly reflected in investigation and anti-detection, which is suitable for lurking work. In terms of meticulous thinking and insight, he naturally cannot be compared with Zhang Xiong!
"Which is in Beishanling, Fu Rong obviously just arranged a plan to doubt the military, and the Qin army's real intention is undoubtedly Huainan City. At present, there are less than 200 defenders in Huainan City, but Fu Rong surrounded him and did not attack. What is the reason?" Zhang Xiong said in confusion, as if he was thinking alone, and as if he was asking Duanmuhe!
Duanmuhe then reacted and said in confusion: "Yes, for Fu Rong, Huainan City is now within reach. Why don't they enter the city in one go, but form a formation outside the city? Judging from the formation, it is still mainly based on defense. Why is this?"
Speaking of this, Duanmuhe said hesitantly: "Does Fu Rong want both fish and bear paws and get it?"
Yu and Bear Paw naturally refer to the Jin army in Huainan City and the Beishan Mountains. Duanmuhe means that Fu Rong wants to eliminate the Jin army that could break out of the Beishan Mountains outside the city, and then enter the city!
"Impossible!" Zhang Xiong shook his head confidently, then frowned and said.
"Although Mr. Shangguan and Mr. Liu are there in the mountain, Sima Xiuzhi is still the one who takes charge. Sima Xiuzhi is more cautious and has little progress. He will not concentrate his efforts to break through until the last moment. In other words, Fu Rong, a suspicious plan, will not be discovered until tomorrow. Fu Rong cannot waste so much time outside the city, and there must be another mystery!"
"Fu Rong seems to be scruples when looking at the formation of the Qin army!" Duanmu He's observation ability was still quite impressive. After carefully observing the formation of the Qin army, he said in a deep voice.
"Are you worried?" Zhang Xiong's eyes lit up, and he suddenly realized a problem. Not far from Huainan City, there must be a force that made Fu Rong fear approaching. Moreover, the speed of this force moving very fast. Although there are few defenders in Huainan City, the city wall is solid. Fu Rong was not sure that he could take it down in one breath. He did not want to be attacked from both sides when siegeing the city!
"Duanmuhe, go to Jingkou immediately to check to see if you can find the traces of the soldiers in the North Mansion. Remember to act carefully!"
Zhang Xiong had already thought of a possibility. Although he had learned from Duanmu and the Chu that Wei Jie asked for help from Xie Xuan, according to time, Xie Xuan could not have come so quickly, but the Qin army outside Huainan City did have some concerns, which means that either another Jin army came to support Huainan, or Xie Xuan learned the opportunity and set out in advance, and one of them was the most likely in the future!
Zhang Xiong was seriously injured, and Duanmuhe did not dare to throw him alone in the woods. He immediately found a big tree with lush branches and leaves. After placing Duanmuhe, he went towards Jingkou!
Half an hour later, Duanmu and Anran came back. Zhang Xiong, who was in a difficult manner, had already been anxious on the big tree. When he saw Duanmu, he asked: "Are the soldiers of the Northern Mansion coming? Is the Xuanshuo here?"
Does the two consecutive reflect Zhang Xiong's eagerness and expectation at this moment? Duanmuhe's answer made Zhang Xiong overjoyed!
"Reply to General Zhang, it was Xuan Shuai who personally came to support Huainan with 20,000 Northern Mansion soldiers. Xuan Shuai has already set up camp less than twenty miles from Huainan!"
"Hahaha...Ouch"
The ecstatic and big Zhang Xiong couldn't help but feel pain, and she couldn't help but get up. Under the severe pain, she almost fell from the tree. Duanmuhe quickly jumped to the tree and carefully supported Zhang Xiong, wanting to get him under the tree again!
"Don't, just let me stay here!" Zhang Xiong pushed Duan Mu He's hands and said happily.
"Dunmuhe, there is something more important to you now need to do!"
"Please give me orders, General!" Duanmu He said respectfully.
"You set off immediately and quickly inform General Wei, telling him that the Beishanling was just Fu Rong's suspicious plan, and ask him to find a way to inform the brothers in Beishanling to break through, tell them that the Xuanshen led the Northern Mansion troops had arrived, and then ask General Wei to cooperate with Xuanshen to give the Qin army a front and back attack. Fu Rong, this time, I think you are bound to escape!"
Xie Xuan's arrival gave Zhang Xiong endless confidence. The suppression, which has been suppressed for several days and was seriously injured, was fully vented at this moment!
"But you, General..."
Returning to the mountain to report the news can't be reversed in a moment. Duanmu and Zhang Xiong's injuries were uneasy and said hesitantly.
"Don't worry about me, go quickly!" Zhang Xiong lay on the tree trunk with satisfaction. His pale face was much better because of excessive blood loss.
"Abide by the order!"
….
The anxious Weijie was leading the Jin army toward Huainan without stopping. Two hundred people from the assault camp opened the way forward, blocking people and killing Buddhas. The small group of Qin army patrols were almost silently killed in one encounter. Just as the army was about to enter the woods closest to Huainan City, a figure rushed out of the forest in great haste.
"General, the person who turned the world around has arrived!"
The person coming was Duanmuhe. He had already discovered the traces of the Jin army hundreds of meters away. At this moment, he ran closer and could no longer hold back his excitement. Before rushing to the guard steps, he fell to the ground and kneeling!
