Chapter 963 The Battle Begins

"Ma Xianglin is dead!" Liang Tingdong, the governor of the three sides, turned pale in shock, and couldn't help but grabbed Ran Tianlin tightly and questioned him.

"Dead!" Ran Tianlin nodded and added, "When playing with women, I was careless."

"Playing with women?" Liang Tingdong, the governor of the three sides, was very annoyed. "Why, he hasn't seen a woman in eight hundred years, has he?"

"A generation of famous generals died on a woman's belly, what a fucking useless!"

No, his mother is not useless, he is the one who is useless!

Ran Tianlin looked at his nose with his eyes, and his heart with his nose, without saying a word.

"Forget it, take me there to have a look, and see him for the last time!" Liang Tingdong was angry for a long time, and suddenly, like a defeated lion, he said dejectedly.

"it is good!"

Not long after, the two arrived at Ma Xianglin's camp.

Liang Tingdong, the governor of the three sides, opened the curtain and walked in. He saw three or five men in linen and mourning guarding Ma Xianglin's body.

"Junmen!" Seeing Liang Tingdong, these men hurriedly kowtowed.

"This is." Liang Tingdong looked at Ran Tianlin suspiciously and said.

"They are all Ma Xianglin's juniors!" Ran Tianlin explained in a low voice.

"Oh, let's be sad!" Liang Tingdong said a few words of comfort, then lifted the white cloth covering Ma Xianglin's body curiously, only to be stunned.

He couldn't help but glanced at Ran Tianlin angrily, what the hell was "carelessness while playing with women"?
This Ma Xianglin was fully clothed and armored, and someone poked a finger-thick hole in his chest. Isn't this obviously because he didn't even play with women, so he died?
Damn, why does it feel like he's even more useless!
Ran Tianlin also wronged Bala, and I also know that he is quite useless, wouldn't it sound better to say that?

"Ma Xianglin is a famous general of a generation, and the son of Mrs. Gaoming, how can he die in a foreign land?" Liang Tingdong sighed and couldn't help but ordered.

"Send some people back, it would be good to inform Mrs. Qin!"

"Okay!" This is a trivial matter, and Ran Tianlin immediately agreed.

After all, everyone had nothing to say all night and went to rest.

Only Ma Xianglin's tent kept whimpering all night. It was really sad for those who heard it, and tears for those who heard it!
After all, age is not forgiving. Liang Tingdong is old, and he overslept as soon as he lay down.

In the early morning of the next day, Liang Tingdong was still asleep. An aide came to him and pushed him anxiously, shouting: "Junmen, wake up, there is an urgent military situation!"

"Huh? What's the matter!" Liang Tingdong didn't get confused, and he turned over and asked in surprise when he heard the words.

"The thieves made a big move early in the morning, and they even dispatched all their nests, crossed the Chan River, and lined up to the north of our army!" The staff member panicked.

"What? How dare they!" Liang Tingdong, the governor of the three sides, was also taken aback. He quickly put on his clothes and was about to leave the camp to check.

As soon as Liang Tingdong left his tent, he bumped into Zuo Guangxian, commander-in-chief of Shaanxi, Liu Shaozong, commander-in-chief of Gansu, Zhang Yingchang, commander-in-chief of Lintao, Ge Lin, deputy commander-in-chief, and Ran Tianlin, commander of the capital.

"Junmen, have you heard?" The four asked anxiously when they saw Liang Tingdong.

"I heard that, don't panic, wait until I check it out!" Liang Tingdong waved his hand, and walked towards the watchtower of the camp with a blank expression.

"Junmen, be careful!" Seeing Liang Tingdong tremblingly stepping on the wooden ladder up to the watchtower, Ran Tianlin hurriedly stepped forward to support him, flattering him.

Cut, villain!

Zuo Guangxian, Liu Shaozong and Zhang Yingchang took a step back, but Ran Tianlin took the lead. They couldn't help cursing secretly, but there was nothing they could do.

After a while, everyone finally boarded the watchtower and looked northeast.

From the "Shun Bandit" camp to the left bank of the Chan River, bandits came out in a file, forming a long queue.

Three simple wooden bridges have already been erected on the Chan River for the thieves to cross the river.

The thieves who had just crossed the Chan River were desperately digging soil and building walls, and at the same time lined up against the river to guard against the harassment of officers and soldiers.

There were three or five hundred riders wandering around, watching vigilantly what was in the officers and soldiers camp.

Everyone is a person who knows how to fight, and they couldn't help but take a breath when they saw this.

"This 'Shun Bandit' is really rigorous in its use of troops, almost impeccable!"

It turns out that the method of using troops is not just the command of the battle formation. All the details of recruitment, training, military law, marching, camping, formation, change of formation, pursuit, defense, and even food and clothing are the art of war.

This rebel army crossed the Chan River to invite officers and soldiers. It seemed a simple tactical move, but it contained many tricks.

For example, when it comes to crossing a river, there are two famous tactics of "strike at half crossing" and "array with your back to the water".

In the battle of Cao Cao's Weishui River, because the river banks were all sandy soil, it was impossible to build a city, so he fought and failed repeatedly.

It wasn't until Lou Gui offered a plan to irrigate and freeze water to build a sand city that Cao Jun was able to gain a foothold on the south bank of the Wei River and defeated Ma Chao in Guanzhong in one fell swoop.

And this time Zhang Shun sent troops to cross the Chan River, it was also difficult to guarantee that the officers and soldiers would not take the opportunity to attack halfway.

However, looking at its deployment and formation, it is almost perfect, and it really makes it difficult for officers and soldiers to start.

"Where is Ge Lin, deputy commander in chief?" Liang Tingdong, the governor of the three sides, shouted straight away, "I order you to send cavalry immediately to harass their formation!"

"Yes, the last general took the order!" Ge Lin's Duoxining soldiers were good at riding and shooting, and they were suitable for such a task.

"However, you have to kill slowly, do you understand?" Liang Tingdong sneered, "You must not kill all at once, so that the thief will stop thinking about it."

"I'm going to lure the thieves here and wipe them out here, so as to prevent them from making a comeback!"

Liang Tingdong's idea was very simple, he finally coaxed this "Shun thief" out, how could he be allowed to hide on the Liujiaying plateau again?

Now that the officers and soldiers are running out of rations, if they don't act anymore, then the city of Xi'an will have to hand over to others!
But looking at the fate of Henan Governor Xuan Mo, Fu Zonglong, and Huguang Governor Tang Hui, how did the Governor Liang Tingdong of the three sides not know the crime of falling into the suzerain vassal? Who can afford it?
Therefore, if he wants to fight, I will fight, fight him to the fullest, and kill him cleanly, so that we can live up to the wisdom of today's Holy One!

Although Ge Lin was well versed in military matters, he had no experience in commanding large numbers of troops.

This time, he personally led tens of thousands of soldiers to help, but in fact, apart from the [-] Danyang soldiers under his command, there were only [-] Gan soldiers under his command.

The other [-] are the three thousand cavalry led by the great master of the Sina nationality and the two thousand cavalry led by Ye Binggan, the head teacher of the Xining Guard. power, but this also reduces the burden on its command.

After Na Ge Lin received the order, he hurriedly went down from the watchtower to look for Naxina Nationality Teacher Ban Zhuo Erlingzhen and Xining Wei Zhangjiao Ye Binggan to discuss.

The head teacher, Ye Binggan, was the most arrogant, and he couldn't help laughing and said: "My brothers in my teaching are the best at swords and arrows, and Han'er is cowardly, just watch me slaughter them for you!"

Ge Lin was quite unhappy when he heard this, but he didn't reprimand him at the moment when he was employing people.

He kept his face sullen for a while, then patted Ye Binggan on the shoulder, and said: "Junmen means to weaken its strength, but also not to startle the enemy and make the thieves shrink back. You can grasp the scale! "
