In order to cover their tracks, Taiyuan County soldiers chose to hide in the forks of the river. They did not eat, smoke, or sleep without taking off their clothes. They lay stiffly among the sand dunes and waited for the military order to cross the river. The sand dunes continuously surrounded the south, south, north, and west sides.
The water flows continuously for their daily needs.
The Xianbei scouts on the north bank were investigating on the other side. They saw wild grass and no trace of people, and even the guards on the other side withdrew. Everyone was overjoyed and discussed the future of the war in private: We are so well hidden that we will surely achieve miraculous results when we cross the river.<
/p>
Who knows, there are pros and cons, hiding well not only deceived the Xianbei people, but also covered their own eyes. When Bu Dugen made a surprise attack on the right wing of the Han army, the fire was far from visible, and the most elite nine thousand county soldiers in the army were hidden among the sand dunes.
Everyone was fast asleep. When the Chinese envoy came to deliver the news, the soldiers were checking their swords and armors, and then they learned that the Xianbei army had all withdrawn to the north bank, leaving only a ruins and mess on the south bank.
"We will still cross the river tonight." Liu Deran, who came to deliver the order, looked downcast, obviously pessimistic because of the day's war. He whispered to Guan Yu: "Brother Yun, Xianbei dogs and minions can kill! Brother, be careful!" Guan Yu knew the situation of the battle.
Finally, he angrily said to him: "How can my minions be as sharp as my soldiers' swords!"
Then he encouraged the soldiers around him and said: "What a pity! Our army's right wing is at a disadvantage, and it will be difficult to do anything. If we stop here, we will be responsible for the defeat in this battle! I, Guan Yunchang, can only solve the county for one warrior, but I can join the army for eight
How can you be innocently accused?! At that time, Duke Minggong was in charge of Meiji, and there were nine counties in Youhe. However, Duke Minggong also said that he would surrender to the Xiongnu and attack Xianbei, which is similar to today. However, eight years after Duke Minggong passed away,
The heavy burden is placed on our generation. If we are weak and do not fight, how can we be worthy of the spirit of Lord Ran Ming in heaven?"
Ran Ming Gong refers to the former chief minister Zhang Huan and Zhang Ranming. Among the three Ming Dynasties in Liangzhou, Duan Jiong had the highest achievements and Huangfu had the best regulations, but Zhang Huan is still remembered the most by the people. Whoever has the people in their hearts will have them in their hearts.
Who else, not to mention that Zhang Huan has been in charge of Bingzhou for a long time. After hearing Guan Yu’s words, the soldiers in Taiyuan County all shouted for battle and said: I will die with the general without regrets!
In the evening, Chen Chong came in person with the last batch of rafts. He corrected his appearance and said carefully to the generals: "The two armies in the middle and right have captured all the boats captured by the Xianbei. Our army will cross the river here tonight. At most, it can cross two
With the number of tens of thousands, it can be said that the enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered. The original plan failed. But no matter how wise the Xianbei Chanyu was, he could never have imagined that our army still had strange soldiers. If we failed in this battle, we would die, and if we succeeded, we would suffer the fate!
Go with you!"
They looked up at the sunset among the sand dunes and watched the sun dissipate its rays. Before the moonlight rose, Guan Yu took the lead in pushing down the raft in the flowing water. His nine-foot body stood among the driftwood. The rest of his men followed closely behind.
It was the south wind that blew them into the river. These warriors at the forefront did not bring horses. Everyone lay on the raft and paddled the north crossing in the river with one hand.
There were no traces of Xianbei people on the north bank. The first group of people crossed the river safely, followed by the second group, and the third group... By the time Chen Chong transported the horses to the north bank, a full moon was already shining on both sides of the river, and there was no need for lights to illuminate it.
, everyone can see that the waves of Shaling Lake in the north are slightly rippling towards the Han army.
In the quiet night, the Han army stretched the team, two people per line, tied linen cloth around the horse's mouth, and continued northward with light equipment. The cavalry drove to the west bank of Shaling Lake. The reeds on the lakeside were similar to those in Huze. The Han army
The knight walked under the green reeds, no one said anything, the horse's hooves reverberated with the sand, and a white-fronted jackal emerged from the bushes.
The jackals and tigers roared before they came out. They saw that the long procession was all holding silent steel blades, which was very boring, so they lowered their heads and left in anger from the crowd. The soldiers didn't care about this, they only cared about the gaps in the reeds.
The outline of Shaling City on the other side is vaguely visible in the waves.
The knight rode his horse slowly for two hours in silence, and finally arrived at the northern end of Shaling Lake. Huanggan water and Baiqu water carved out a lush pasture here. The whole army rested for a while, loosened the linen cloth and let the horses drink.
, and then headed north for five miles at full speed, crossing two rivers eastward until Shaling City completely disappeared from sight.
"Go south! Go south!" At this point, the generals of the Han army instructed their respective troops as planned. The eight troops in the army formed two rows, forming a flying geese formation. Chen Chong led his own troops who originally belonged to Liu Bei to complete the rear row.
, after the formation of the team was completed, Chen Chong gave another order to the generals: "Today's battle will be fought in the middle army, and Shanyu will be captured directly, and the rest will be ignored! After the war, everyone will judge their merits to the tenth level!"
Everyone cheered and Chen Chong stroked Qing Wei's mane. Facing Dou Fu's uneasy look in Zuo Lie, he encouraged Dou Fu and said: "You are the grandson of General Dou, and you are blessed by General Dou's heavenly spirit.
We will definitely be able to defeat the enemy." Dou Fu then gave up his panic and smiled to Chen Chong, "Even so, my ancestors have never fought in battles. The reputation of the Fufeng Dou family depends on me." He then sighed: "I
Leading the troops in the first formation, I hope that the outcome of the battle will not be unfavorable to me."
At this time, the soldiers of the county had already begun to march south. The south wind had not yet stopped. Everyone's hair crowns were dancing in the south wind. Zhang Fei heard Dou Fu's words and shouted to him with a smile: "Mr. Dou, just remember, in your heart
Don't be afraid, don't walk fast or slow, don't turn around and run away, march with your subordinates, and the war will be successful!"
"Why?" The Han army rode faster and faster. Chen Chong could hardly hear Dou Fu's words, but Zhang Fei saw his lips move and knew what he said. Zhang Fei laughed in the wind, his smile
The sound was as powerful as thunder. When the thunder passed, his words flew among all the soldiers:
"Those who share blood with me are my brothers!"
Chen Chong, Guan Yu and others all started laughing. Wei Yan stood next to Chen Chong and smiled at Zhang Fei: "Zhang Sima, you are talking about Chen Jun's words again!" Zhang Fei's eyes widened and he denied: "What my brother said,
It’s my words, why not?” He said seriously to everyone again: “Those who are bathed in blood with me are my brothers!”
Everyone replied: "The one who is bathed in blood with me is my brother!" The slightly lonely body of the Han army knight once again boiled with blood, and his wrists rose with endless brute force. In the midst of longing,
Finally, one military tent after another rose up in Chen Chong's field of vision. He once again issued the order: "Go straight to the king's flag! Don't care about the rest!"

During the order, the cavalry rushed into the tents. Xianbei's tents were very sloppy, with no antlers and no trenches. This may be due to unexpected reasons. There were only a few sentries, but Chen Chong knew that the more reason was that Liu Bei was there.
Both places on the south bank gave the illusion that they were about to cross the river, causing Kuai Tou to urgently mobilize troops to Shaling Lake. The defense here was greatly lacking.
The Xianbei people who heard the sound of horseshoes went out to check the camp. Except for the dead man who was trampled by the horseshoes, the rest of the Xianbei Han soldiers who fled ignored them and neither set fire nor fought.
Passing through, a few Xianbei soldiers stabbed in vain in the camp, but they couldn't do it. The knights in the front line stretched out their knives and chopped down the obstacles in the way. The rear line filled the gap, and the Xianbei could only flee in all directions.
Another Xianbei general tried to block it with arrows, but after all, there was a tent blocking it, so the effect was still not good. At this time, the Han knights happened to pass by a Xianbei stable. Chen Chong said to Wei Yan: "You can burn this place." Wei Yan immediately took it.
A torch was thrown onto the fodder of the stable. The horses in the stable were frightened, and they forced themselves to break their reins and ran out of the stable like a swarm, turning the already chaotic Xianbei camp into a mess.
At this time, the Han army finally saw the brown background and white deer king's flag of Xianbei Chanyu. There were more than ten people under the flag wearing brocade robes, obviously very wealthy. They were gathering the surrounding tribesmen to form a circular formation under the king's flag, holding high
A forest of spears faced the Han cavalry. Guan Yu was in the forefront, jumped off his horse, and held a knife to chop the spear heads. He did not wear heavy armor, and the Xianbei people did not have time to pierce the armor. It was purely a matter of strength, and Guan Yu was invincible. Those who faced him were invincible.
All of them lost their limbs.
Linghu Yuan and others fired a hail of arrows from their horses again, but the Xianbei people could no longer hold on, and the formation was easily broken open. Seeing that the situation was about to end, the dozen or so nobles immediately fled on horseback in three separate ways.
Chen Chong immediately ordered: "Yun Chang, Yide, you each chase one way, I chase the other, don't let the Xianbei Puppet King escape! Half of the other tribes will stay to disrupt the bandit formation, and the other half will go to the river bank to pick up the extradited river!"
After hastily giving the order, Chen Chong immediately led Bai Laiqi to chase the middle road first. He heard that Kuitou was nearly fifty years old and had experienced many wars, so he should look more mature. He saw two people with gray hair on the middle road, so he chased them first. As the chase went on, Chen Chong became more and more certain. The five people in front were obviously familiar with the layout of the camp. They turned corners several times and almost escaped the pursuit. However, they were walking in a hurry without saddles. After walking for a long time, their leg skins were worn and their horses were too fast.
So I slowed down, and after walking for two more moments, it was obvious that I couldn’t move much anymore.
The people in front also knew that the situation was critical, and one of them immediately said loudly in Chinese: "Master Tuoba, Shanyu has treated you with great kindness, go ahead and drag him away!" He immediately pushed one of the two people off his horse,
The man fell to the ground and was stunned for a moment. Then he lay on the ground and did not dare to move. He just bowed his head and accepted his fate. Chen Chong glanced at him and felt pity. He had no time to stop to check and continued to lead the pursuit.
After he chased for another two moments, the remaining four people in front were captured. The noble man who pushed people claimed to be the young commander Shi Lanchou of the Shilan tribe. He patted the old man beside him and said to Chen Chong with a smile in Xianbei dialect.
: "You have been deceived. This is the old man Tuoba Lin who is suing the head. The one I just pushed off the horse is the real Chanyu."
Chen Chong finally came to his senses and hurriedly mobilized his horse to fight back, but where was the place where Kuitou fell? There were only green grass and summer wind, and the distant firelight of Liu Bei crossing the river. Chen Chong felt very regretful and said to him in Xianbei dialect
Tuoba Lin and Shi Shi Lanchou said: "It is really benevolent and righteous for those of you to deceive your savior with your life! But at this point in the battle, there is one less Xianbei chanyu and one more Xianbei chanyu. It doesn't matter anymore."
."
Shi Shi Lanchou looked into the distance. There was only raging gunfire where Wang Qi was, and his expression gradually became gloomy. Tuoba Lin stamped his steps and sighed to himself: "It is true. After Shanyu's defeat, all the people
I don’t know how long we will have to wait for the restoration of the army.”
