Chapter six hundred and first encounter Ma Teng
On the way back to Yang City with his troops, Yangzhou Danyang County was scorched earth on the east side of Huilong Valley, with smoke everywhere and corpses everywhere.
Last night, not only did the battle break out in Ji County, but a war broke out in Huilong Valley in Danyang County, Yangzhou.
Seeing that the Han army that had been attacking for several days was exhausted, Yang Hanrong launched a counterattack that night. Qu generals Han Xian, Ji Liangrou and Zhou Zi each led a Qu 10,000 troops and the Bocai camp army to send troops back to Longgu, launching a fierce attack on the west side of the Han army camp, and more than 20,000 troops lurking in Huangshan to rest and raid on the east side of the Han army camp.
Attacked on both sides, nearly 100,000 ordinary soldiers with military skills were attacked by two famous generals and many generals.
Seeing that Jianghe County's troops were only guarding the valley and did not attack, the Han army camp relaxed its vigilance and suddenly encountered a fierce attack. In a few minutes, it was captured by a large group of troops from Jianghe County. A large number of troops in Jianghe County rushed into the Han army camp and killed the sleeping Han army. Hundreds of thousands of troops in Han army were in chaos. After a night of melee, only Zhou Xin fled with tens of thousands of elite soldiers in Danyang, and hundreds of thousands of troops were completely damaged.
At this time, only a scorched earth and a devastated land were left on the battlefield.
On the temporary checkpoint facing the east of Huilong Valley, Yang Hanrong looked at the smoke of gunpowder in the wilderness outside, and a large number of soldiers from Jianghe County were cleaning up the remaining battlefield. She asked Zhang Ning beside her: "Sister Ning, has the battle situation been counted last night?"
"The preliminary statistics have been found. Last night, our army was killed in battle and injured thousands of troops. A total of tens of thousands of enemies were wiped out, 200,000 enemy troops were captured, and countless food and supplies were countless. Only Zhou Xin fled with more than 30,000 Danyang elite soldiers. Now he should have entered Lingyang County."
"Well, right, I'll send an order to let the army clean the battlefield outside the valley, and after the army rested for a day, headed towards Wanling City, Danyang County." Yang Hanrong heard the battle situation statistics, lightly tapped her little head and said with a kindness to Zhang Ning beside her.
"You are going to Wanling? Isn't the deputy city lord worried that the Han army will cut off our retreat?" Liu Hua asked on the side, his face full of confusion.
"Now the main force of the Han army in Danyang County has been annihilated. It will take a long time for the Han army to mobilize hundreds of thousands of troops from other places to block our retreat. It just so happened to take this time to go to Jianshi Tianxia Guild near Wanling to take a look. That day, Gu led his army away from his territory, and even his territory was about to be destroyed, and he did not return to his army. I am worried about their conspiracy, so it is better to lead the army to Wanling to stay in charge!" A trace of sorrow flashed across Yang Hanrong's green face. He still didn't understand that Tiangu, the president of Jianshi Tianxia Guild, took most of his troops away from the territory, regardless of the intention of the territory's life and death, and was worried in his heart what powerful backup he was preparing. If this is the case, he must stop him, otherwise there will be endless troubles.
A day later, Yang Hanrong led a large group of troops to the east after leaving Zhou Zi's army to guard the important land of Long Valley.
Zhou Xin, who fled to Lingyang City, heard that Yang Hanrong's army was coming from the east. He was already frightened and hurriedly took more than 30,000 Danyang elite troops to retreat and retreat to Jingxian City.
When Yang Hanrong passed by Lingyang City, the magistrate of Lingyang County on Lingyang City watched Yang Hanrong's soldiers pass by the city with trembling fear. Not to mention sending troops out of the city to harass Yang Hanrong's soldiers, he didn't even dare to let out a single arrow, for fear of annoying these evil stars. He only hoped that Yang Hanrong's soldiers would leave his Lingyang City as soon as possible.
Yang Hanrong passed by with his troops outside Lingyang City in a swagger, and turned a blind eye to the enemy troops at the top of Lingyang City.
Tens of thousands of soldiers marched from Lingyang City and after advancing for dozens of miles, they stopped in a small town.
"Where are the people of the Great Nine Kings?" Yang Hanrong asked Zhang Ning in the central army's tent.
"You should have entered the mirror of Lingyang County and you can quickly join the army." Zhang Ningjing replied.
At this time, the troops led by the Great Nine Kings were not in the territory but had entered Danyang County.
As early as when he was confronting the Han army in Danyang County, Yang Hanrong sent someone to contact the famous historical general Chen Shi.
Chen's conquest task is to require the head of the Shanyue Grand Tribe's patriarch. The head of the Shanyue Grand Tribe's patriarch had harvested one when he dealt with the Shanyue army before, but it was not carried by his side in Jianghe City.
During this period, both Jianghe County and Yang Hanrong were constantly fighting and had no time to escort the head to deliver the task. Not long ago, when the Mozigu dungeon appeared and Yangzhou was relatively stable, Yang Hanrong asked the Great Nine King to take the head to deliver the task. Now the time should be almost done.
If Chen Shi can be conquered, Jianghe Army will add another Yuan general, which will be of great benefit to the war between Jianghe County's troops in Danyang County.
Tens of thousands of soldiers stayed here for a long time, and a nearly 10,000 soldiers came from the south. Who wouldn’t be the one led by the Great Nine Kings?
"Last time, please pay homage to the deputy city lord!" A powerful man from Kong Wu came to Yang Hanrong and reported to him respectfully.
"No need to be polite. Now that I am not in the territory, I cannot arrange the position of general for the time being. The general will temporarily lead tens of thousands of military troops to protect the food, grass and supplies." Yang Hanrong thought for a while and said to Chen Shi.
"No! I will obey the order!"
After joining the troops of the Great Nine Kings, Yang Hanrong led the army to continue advancing eastward. When he first entered Jingxian, Zhou Xin led more than 30,000 Danyang elite troops to leave Jingxian and retreat to Wanling City.
Upon hearing the news, Yang Hanrong led his troops to continue to march eastward.
...
In Tianshui County, Liangzhou, Yang Tao led his troops to stay in Xianqin County for a few days. It was not that he intended to stay here. After all, the mission time was not long, and he wanted to complete the task early and return to Yangcheng, so he had no time to stay in Xianqin City. But the county magistrate of Xianqin County was so hospitable that Yang Tao could not stand it and stayed for a few days.
During these days, the young master, Cheng Gongying, was successfully persuaded by Xi Zhicai to join Yang Tao's camp. Cheng Gongying was Han Sui's strategist, with extraordinary strength, active in the middle and late stages of the Three Kingdoms, and had quite strong strength. No wonder he was able to fight against Xi Zhicai.
After conquering Cheng Gongying, Yang Tao had two famous scholars around him, and his strength increased a lot. More importantly, Cheng Gongying's ability to complement Xi Zhicai was insufficient.
Xi Zhicai is good at strategy, but not good at making decisions on the spot. Cheng Gongying can lead troops and has strong decisive skills on the spot. The two complement each other, which has a great effect. Therefore, the three days of staying in Xianqin County can be regarded as a welcome to Cheng Gongying's joining, and at the same time, he will be familiar with Yang Tao's soldiers and generals and will work together in the future.
Three days later, Yang Tao brought his troops back along the same route. There should be no more problems along the way. After all, Yang Tao and others walked with the Desert Wolf Eagle's soldiers before, and the problem was not big. But what Yang Tao did not expect was that they actually met Ma Teng's soldiers going south.
When Yang Tao was heading north to the east from Lueyang to return to Yangcheng, the army led by Ma Teng appeared in Chengji County in the north, and tens of thousands of cavalry were moving south quickly and heading straight towards Lueyang County.
When Yang Tao led his troops to the north, smoke and dust rose everywhere in the north, and the sound of earth shaking suddenly came, making his face change and he immediately realized something was wrong. This movement was a vibration that could only be produced by the actions of the cavalry.
He hurriedly ordered the troops on both sides to stop and set up a defensive formation to guard the garrison. When he saw a large number of flags with the horse-shaped flags appearing in the smoke and dust, his face suddenly turned out.
