In June of the year 243 of Daning, Hachi led his army out of Kaifeng and made a gesture of attacking Yingchang Mansion. As soon as the army moved, the world looked at him, and everyone knew that another war would start in the Central Plains.

Three days later, after receiving the news, Shang Gui led more than 40,000 Han troops, more than 20,000 Mongolian and Hu cavalry, and nearly 70,000 horses. They set off from Haozhou and Suzhou and entered Yingzhou. Five days later, they surrounded Yingzhou Prefecture and ruled Ruyin. It was almost all the troops that Shang Gui could dispatch.

At the same time, Masayoshi Son of Huaixi led about 50,000 troops to leave Guangzhou and enter the border of Caizhou, with the intention of attacking the Xinyang Army. Only then did everyone realize that Sun Zhengyi, the national hero and pioneer in the fight against Hu, was no longer so righteous. , actually ended up becoming a traitor. Are there any real heroes in this world? Conscientious and educated Han people have written poems and lyrics to criticize Sun Zhengyi for his despicability and shamelessness, hoping that the newly emerging young heroes in the west of Beijing can catch all these traitors and lackeys. , even the Jianning court, which had never cared much about this, published an article in the Di newspaper criticizing Sun Zhengyi, supporting Lin Jianyue, and ordered Guo Youting south of the Huai River to send troops to support Lin Jianyue. Of course, whether General Guo Youting listened or not, he didn't know, at least. The attitude is there.

Shang Gui looked at Ruyin City with tall walls in front of him and felt that everything was going according to plan.

The shouts of the siege soldiers below the city were loud, but their movements were slow. On the city, most of them shot arrows into the sky, and the sound was not quiet. The battle lasted for several days, but few people were injured. It seemed that the competition was not about fighting power but their voices. When the time came, , each went back to his home to eat and rest.

The siege lasted only five days. A large number of elite scouts specially sent by Shang Gui reported that Wu Yi of Chenzhou had led the main force of the Xinyang Army's Second Army, more than 26,000 men, out of Xiangcheng in Chenzhou and headed towards Qiu County.

After receiving the report, Shang Gui was overjoyed. He immediately gathered his troops and integrated the infantry brigade to meet Qiu County. However, he ordered 20,000 Hu cavalry to slow down behind and monitor Wuzhong's actions. As expected, he was still uneasy and had already thought of countermeasures.

These are all good ideas, but I didn’t expect that no matter how good the plan is, it cannot be too detailed or too slow. As the time line is lengthened, there will be more variables. We are fighting in a foreign place without local support. Getting accurate information will be delayed a lot, and Little did they know that Lin Jianyue had led the 30,000-strong Longjie Army's First Army in the field and 23,000 cavalry that had gone through many battles and had been hiding for several days more than 50 miles west of Qiu County.

After receiving the news that Shang Gui had come from Ruyin, Lin Jianyue ordered Liu Hesheng to immediately lead the First Army to avoid the scouts, cross the reserved battlefield, and ambush on the east side of the battlefield, while he and Li Fei led the cavalry to march southward in the opposite direction.

On the way, they encountered the Second Army heading north as planned, and added 10,000 people specially transferred from Wang Lizheng's First Army to the Second Army to ensure that they could withstand the Hu Qi's breakout attack.

Wu Zhong did not personally lead the Second Army, but led more than 6,000 people who might have problems to act with the main force of Shang Gui, and officially began to implement the counterinsurgency plan.

On a hill more than thirty miles southwest of Qiu County, Lin Jianyue watched the Menghu cavalry roaring past in the distance, looked around and said with a smile: "This battlefield is always ever-changing, and often a small thing can change the situation of the battle. Shang Gui is still very thoughtful and capable, but he is not decisive enough and does great things at the expense of his own life. If he had not been prepared for everything, even if Wu Zhong was ventilated in time, even if General Sun Zhengyi did not help him, I would not be able to do it at such a long distance. Now it is okay to surround him like this and use his strength to retreat with all his body."

Liu Bingyun was a little worried, not so much about the war at hand, but about Commander-in-Chief's counterinsurgency plan.

"Jie Shuai, the anti-Japanese plan is good, but since Jieshuai went to war, he has been invincible, which has given the world and his subordinates great confidence. If he loses just like this, and it is not a real defeat, it will definitely reduce the reputation of Jieshuai.

Future development and expansion will have an impact that cannot be underestimated, and I am afraid that it will do more harm than good in the end."

Lin Jianyue shook his head and said: "Since ancient times, there has been no undefeated person. Like Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty, he fought many battles in his life. He lost many more times than he won. How can he win the world? As long as he is steady at the critical moment.

Just live there. Even Li Shimin, the Heavenly Khan of the Tang Dynasty, was not without

We have failed. Mr. Liu, it is actually a good thing to lose a few times now. It can discover what problems we still have, and there are opportunities to correct them, and enhance our resilience and ability to withstand failure. If one day in the future we have a decisive battle with Menghu

If we fail, do we still have a chance to make things right and start over?"

Han Yuheng, who was forced to follow this battle, nodded and said: "Jie Shuai has a very far-sighted idea. Such a defeat can be a good opportunity to see that there are still people with double-minded intentions within us, and our combat effectiveness will be stronger in the future. But I also have other ideas."

I am worried that there are still many loopholes in the counterinsurgency plan. I am afraid that if Sun Zhengyi fails to counterinsurgency, the barbarians will find out the clues, then

It loses its meaning, and the losses will be huge. This is a battle involving tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands. There are many people talking, and the possibility of revealing the truth is very high. Who can guarantee that his subordinates will not talk nonsense, and who can guarantee that the barbarians will not.

There are spies among us or in Son Zhengyi's army. If you pretend to be false or fail, you must take it seriously. It is not easy to hide it from so many people. There are capable people among the barbarians."

Lin Jianyue pondered for a moment before nodding: "Mr. Han's words make sense, but this plan is currently only known to the highest levels of the military. How Sun Zhengyi implements it depends on whether he can deceive the barbarians. Since he can think of this plan,

He must be prepared. He was ready to do this without me before, let alone now with my cooperation? I have also thought about this problem, so I chose to start implementing the plan during the war. The atmosphere on the battlefield was tense.

, the soldiers and low-level officers below will only follow orders, and the war is often over before they engage the enemy. They have no time, energy or ability to think about other things. Well, as I said just now, any plan cannot be too detailed.

Once the decision is made, we will immediately implement it with all our strength. If we win, we will be lucky but we will lose our lives. The time is coming, inform the whole army to prepare, let's fight cavalry against cavalry, and see how weak we can be compared with the world-famous elite cavalry of Menghu.

Where to go?"

Lin Jianyue put on the armor specially designed for him. Not to mention, even his face was covered by a visor, leaving only his eyes and vents exposed.

Lin Jianyue turned his head and saw that Liu Bingyun and Han Yuheng were also wearing armor, but holding a sword in their hands. He suddenly smiled and said: "The two gentlemen are scholars. They make suggestions and do not fight for victory in front of the battle. This outfit is not suitable for cavalry battles, or is it?

It would be better to take people with you on the mountain to watch me kill the enemy. Don't make any mistakes, then the gain will outweigh the loss."

Han Yuheng said with a grimace: "It's also good to block arrows."

Lin Jianyue shook his head, turned around and roared.

In front of the entire quiet and solemn cavalry formation, only Lin Jianyue's big black horse was wandering around and grazing leisurely. It looked so special and kingly. Its former owner, who had died long ago, would also feel honored in heaven because of his horse!

The big black horse heard his master's call and immediately came galloping forward. Lin Jianyue did not wait for the horse to slow down, quickly got on the horse, pulled out the spear inserted in the center of the front of the military formation, held a round shield, and stared at tens of thousands of eyes in front of the military formation.

Returning to Mercedes-Benz, he looked so heroic and invincible.

"Wonderful victory! Ten thousand victory! Ten thousand victory!"

Tens of thousands of troops began to move in unison following this figure, their momentum overwhelming and invincible.
