In less than half a quarter of an hour, Han Peng flew away and returned. When he entered the camp again, his eyes were full of expectation and urgency. It was obvious that he was impatient. Unfortunately, Luo Zhi had not returned yet.
In this case, we can only continue to wait.
After another moment, Luo Zhishang returned to the camp.
"Ling Shuai, everyone is here." Han Pengfei rubbed his hands and said with an obvious look of urgency.
Others also looked at Ling Yun at this time.

"Li Jianhui, pass the order and send scouts to pay close attention to the movements of the Xixia army after they leave the city." Ling Yun looked at Li Jianhui and asked him to send out scouts to pay close attention to the movements of the Xixia army after they left the city.
Because of what happens next, we need to guard against the enemy troops leaving the city.
"I obey!" The scouts had been sent out a long time ago, and they knew every step of the enemy's movements after leaving the city.
"As for you..." Ling Yun turned to look at the others and fell into thinking for a while.
Ling Yun just ordered to send out 5,000 men. The Chinese army now has 25,000 soldiers, which is equivalent to half of the army.
The battle post said it was 20,000 versus 20,000, so why did Ling Yun suddenly send an additional 5,000 people?
The reason is actually very simple. He just wanted Guo Yixiu to hold back the enemy army and, if possible, even devour the enemy.
If it's twenty thousand versus twenty thousand, it's not necessarily safe.
The increase in troops was too much, and I was afraid that the enemy would regret it, so I thought that an increase of five thousand would be just right, at least it would not panic the enemy.
Ling Yun's guess was not wrong.

Before Tuoba Lu left the city, the first thing he did was to find out how many troops Qianjun had deployed in Nanping. If Qianjun was the first to disobey the rules, he would secretly make up his mind not to keep the appointment, but instead choose to launch a sneak attack, which would lead to a fight.
Gan Jun was caught off guard.
Unexpectedly, he found that the Qian army had less than 20,000 people. Although there were 5,000 more people, this number was far from scary in his opinion, so he led 20,000 people and marched out of the city.
The two sides were stationed in camps for only sixty miles, and their scouts were constantly wandering around, just to check the situation of the other side. When they found that the other side had no intention of acting rashly, they did not take action. They just reported what they saw.
The news got back...m..
On the day of the war, the two sides set up their respective battle formations, and the war was about to break out.
The two sides had a very tacit understanding of each other in the first battle. Both sides only sent out more than a thousand troops as a tentative attack.
Then it's time for the two sides to show off their magical powers, infantry versus infantry, cavalry versus cavalry... I have everything you have. The next step is to see who can be better in combat effectiveness of the soldiers on both sides.
By the way, the cavalry on Shi Tianzong's side were not only smaller in number than the Xixia army, but also had significantly lower combat power than the other side. This could be seen from the first wave of charges between the two sides.
Shi Tianzong also discovered this problem.
In fact, Shi Tianzong had already predicted this outcome.
Because this cavalry is not the cavalry he trained.

Both the combat effectiveness of the soldiers and the coordination of the phalanx between the soldiers seemed a bit stiff. Even after practicing day and night during this period, the cavalry still could not achieve the results he wanted.
I feel a little disgusted in my heart, but I also know that there is no other way but to rely on powerful crossbows to make up for the advantages of both sides.
Fortunately, their crossbow arrows are sharp enough and can kill many cavalry by pulling them. Moreover, unlike ordinary bows and arrows, the crossbow arrows do not need to be nocked. They can shoot out by just aiming and pulling the trigger. This saves a lot of time and allows the cavalry to shoot. More advantageous.
Shi Tianzong led this cavalry and thus recovered the disadvantage.
"General Tuoba Lu, the enemy's fighting strength is impressive..."
Zhao Xingnan was surprised to find that their army did not benefit at all, so he quickly told Tuoba Lu about this.
Tuoba Lu's deep eyes stared eagerly at the battlefield.
At this moment, he also discovered the same problem.
Twenty thousand against twenty thousand, and their army couldn't get the slightest advantage. Is this the same enemy army that dispersed at the first touch?
Obviously not.

Seeing that he was silent, Zhao Xingnan couldn't help but asked anxiously, "General Tuoba Lu, the enemy's situation is wrong. Why don't you tell the general about this?"
The general in Zhao Xingnan's mouth is naturally Li Zhenghao.
Tuoba Lu's two lieutenants were punished and could not go to the battlefield at all, so Li Zhenghao sent them over to help Tuoba Lu.
Tuoba Lu was still thinking about why the combat effectiveness of the army in front of him was so much better than the previous ones, but when he heard Zhao Xingnan's words, he turned to stare at him, and at the same time a sharp light burst out in his eyes. , obviously dissatisfied with what the other party said.
Knowing that this battle was to clear his name, and the two sides had just started fighting at this time, Zhao Xingnan couldn't wait to report it.
If you are so anxious to report it, what should you report?
Did he also report to Li Zhenghao that he could not defeat Ganjun?
Tuoba Lu stared at him and said in a deep voice, "Our army has just fought with the enemy and has not fallen below. Why should we rush to report? Does Captain Zhao Qianfu think that our army will not be able to defeat Ganjun?"
"Uh..." Zhao Xingnan choked.
He quickly explained, "The general will not dare!"

Zhao Xingnan didn't mean this. He just felt that the enemy army this time was different from the enemies he had encountered before. In particular, he noticed that the crossbow arrows used by the enemy cavalry could not only be fired without drawing the bow, but were also sharp. Extremely…
It was incredible to him that the enemy army was able to match their cavalry with this unknown weapon.
After a pause, he continued, "The general feels that the enemy forces we fought this time are different, especially the cavalry. Although he has taken charge of the cavalry commander, the general still remembers that it was Luo Zhishang's cavalry. Last time in Beijing, In the battle of Zhaofu, the last general was able to defeat them to a rout, but now he is able to fight our army vigorously..."
"So?" Tuoba Lu asked.
"puff!"
Therefore, you should be vigilant!
Before he finished speaking, Tuoba Lu blocked him, and Zhao Xingnan had an ominous premonition in his heart.
"General, I should be vigilant..." Zhao Xingnan hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't help but speak.
But halfway through, he was interrupted again by Tuoba Lu.
"That's enough, Captain Zhao Qianfu. If you are afraid of death, you can take your people back now, otherwise shut up."

"If you dare to say anything that shakes the morale of the army, don't blame me for being cruel, huh!"
Tuoba Lu was really angry and warned Zhao Xingnan, then snorted coldly and stopped looking at him.
Zhao Xingnan froze, secretly worried.
Although the Xixia Army clearly had the upper hand on the battlefield, if you observe carefully, you can still find that the Gan Army was not at a much disadvantage, especially the infantry, which had no intention of retreating.
"Is this still a Ganjun?" Zhao Xingnan looked at the Ganjun on the battlefield, fighting bravely and fearlessly... which made him feel scared.
"And where did the reinforcements go?" Zhao Xingnan glanced at the enemy troops on the battlefield and was horrified to find that the 5,000-man army supporting from Sanquan County was not seen on the battlefield.
