The Tianshan army was surrounded on three sides, and no soldiers and horses went around to the east. Zhu Lingyue was not interested in the art of war in the early years, but in recent years, he has been studying military books and strategies day and night, remembering that attacking the enemy can not make it completely desperate. To give the enemy a glimmer of hope, especially in siege warfare, you must never attack from all sides, you must leave one side to show weakness.

The attack on Hezhou was like this, and Zhu Lingyue still used this tactic when attacking Qingyuan Racecourse today.

Pei Ji wanted the Xiguan Army to die and survive, but Zhu Lingyue left a glimmer of life, hoping that the Xiguan Army would not be left in despair. Both Pei Ji and Zhu Lingyue knew that the fighting power of a truly desperate person would be terrific.

Outside the racecourse, the dust was flying, people called horses neighing, and the Tianshan cavalry was already preparing for the final battle.

Inside the Qingyuan Racecourse, it was quiet and steady. Although there were tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, they gradually became silent, and each guarded his position. For every Xiguan soldier who was in trouble, he guarded his position and fought to the death.

Tianshan cavalry and infantry are as vast as the sea, and there is an endless stream. From time to time, teams are mobilized. Orders gallop back and forth outside the racecourse. They attacked the high-walled Hezhou City. It was so dilapidated that it was almost about to be taken. Now that it was facing a small racecourse and surrounded by temporary wooden fences and earth walls, it was naturally inevitable.

Zhu Lingyue was like a hunter who had locked his prey, and arranged his tactics in an orderly manner. Marquis Gan did not retreat to his own formation. Seeing that Zhu Lingyue assigned orders clearly, he sighed: "Zhu Du, I am really convinced now." To tell you the truth, I thought you were born as a literati and not good at marching, but now it seems that I was completely wrong."

Zhu Lingyue waved his hands and said with a smile: "General Gan is just joking. I'm just scratching the surface. With a large number of people, I just want to annihilate Chu Huan in one fell swoop. When it comes to the use of troops, it is far from the real general. Too many, in addition to military strength, morale, equipment, logistics, etc., we also need to adapt to local conditions, using terrain, climate, and many other conditions. If we change to other places, I dare not lightly advocate. It is nothing more than tit-for-tat, a desperate battle , here is Yimapingchuan again, so it’s just a strong attack.”

"Is Zhu Du preparing to let the cavalry charge?"

Zhu Lingyue said: "Although the cavalry rushed into the formation, although there was a loss, as long as they can open a gap, they can tear through Chu Huan's defense line. The infantry immediately followed up and attacked from several sides. It is impossible for the Xiguan army to have any chance of winning. The cavalry rushed It may not be successful once, or even two or three times, but as long as it breaks through once, it will be successful!"

"What Zhu Du said is true." Marquis Gan nodded slightly, cupped his hands and said, "There are [-] troops in the northwest, please give orders from Zhu Du!"

Zhu Lingyue caressed his beard and smiled: "The battle is coming soon, and the general can't bear to be lonely? Originally, he wanted to keep the general in Hezhou to guard, and hand over this side to the Tianshan Army, but the general was eager to fight and led the army to come with him. , Let the sons of Tianshan fight. Now the world is in turmoil and bandits are everywhere. To wipe out the bandits and stabilize the general situation, we still need a group of warriors who are good at fighting. Tianshan sons have too little experience, but this time they can also take this opportunity to experience One time. General Gan’s subordinates are all brave fighters who have experienced many battles, so they can easily lead the battle!”

Gan Hou laughed and said: "Zhu Du is strategizing, and Gan admires it." After thinking for a while, he said: "Zhu Du, Chu Huan set up defenses, and there are trenches dug on the southeast and north sides. Once there is a stalemate, only relying on cavalry, casualties are inevitable. It’s too heavy, and infantry will always be needed to hold the formation, and step forward for reinforcements at any time. If Zhu Du trusts the Northwest Army, please order some Northwest soldiers to go to the north and south to support the formation. Once there is a stalemate, our Northwest soldiers will immediately step forward to help, and the cavalry and infantry will cooperate. attack!"

"Oh?"

Marquis Gan raised his finger and pointed forward, "The front is the Horse Taming Valley, but the scouts have already reported that Chu Huan wanted to use the Horse Taming Valley as a barrier, and did not dig a trench, so it is very likely that a cavalry attack from the front can be done in the shortest time. Breaking through the defense line, the main force of Zhu Du's Tianshan infantry is here to prepare the whole army to attack at any time, and the three sides will cooperate to kill the enemy in one battle!"

Zhu Lingyue nodded slightly, but Marquis Gan lowered his voice and said: "Just one thing, I still want to ask Zhu Du, and I hope Zhu Du will agree!"

"General Gan, you and I are in-laws, we share weal and woe, if you have any demands, just say so." Zhu Lingyue said with a smile.

Marquis Gan then said: "Zhu Du should also understand that these Northwest soldiers followed me to attack Chu Huan. In the final analysis, they all wanted to be rewarded for their meritorious deeds. I hope that Zhu Du will give you a lot of rewards. You know, I am poor, and I don’t have a few copper coins in my pocket. If everyone makes contributions, I can’t give you rewards. It makes everyone feel unhappy...!"

Immediately, Zhu Lingyue understood Ganhou's meaning, and his smile became stronger, saying: "Don't worry, my relatives, you and I, the two armies, after all, it is a family, regardless of each other, whether it is Tianshan soldiers or Northwest Army soldiers, as long as they stand together No one will be treated equally, no one will be treated more favorably than another.”

Ganhou's eyes showed joy, and he cupped his hands and said: "Since this is the case, I thanked Zhu Du on behalf of the soldiers of the Northwest Army. Zhu Du, I still have 2 people under my command, and I will send 5000 people to the north and south for support. Gan personally led [-] soldiers and horses, and when he broke through the horse training valley, he and Zhu Du entered the racecourse together, I don't know what Zhu Du wants?"

Zhu Lingyue stroked his beard and said, "There are 1 cavalry on both sides of the north and south. The governor just sent [-] infantry to support each. If you add General Gan's [-] soldiers and horses, the strength of both sides will exceed [-]. It will definitely put huge pressure on Chu Huan...!"

Marquis Gan immediately cupped his hands and said: "Then Gan will give you an order!" Turning his horse's head, he quickly galloped towards the Northwest Army formation behind. Twenty thousand soldiers and horses in the Northwest were waiting in full force at this time. Marquis Gan rode his horse and said loudly: "Listen well, Zhu Du has already spoken, and we will fight today, but those who make meritorious deeds will be rewarded heavily. Success or failure depends on this battle. Brothers, use your means to take Chu Huan's head off! , Strengthen the prestige of our Northwest Army!"

The soldiers in the Northwest Army immediately raised their swords and spears, shouting loudly, with great momentum.

"Mu Dongqing, you lead 5000 troops to support Gu Liangchen to the north, and Lu Dao, you lead 5000 troops to support Di Renjie to the south." Marquis Gan tightened the reins, high-spirited, "The others stand by and get ready. , once the cavalry breaks through the defense, you will follow me and Zhu Du into the racecourse. You all remember that in today's battle, Chu Huan's head must be taken off, but whoever takes off Chu Huan's head will surely benefit greatly reward!"

He was full of energy, his voice shook the whole field, and the soldiers in the Northwest cheered again.

Hearing the shouts of the Northwest Army behind, Zhu Lingyue stroked his long beard. A moment later, a man galloped over and said in a low voice, "Du Zhu, Marquis Gan seems to want to take Chu Huan's head. He ordered his soldiers to take Chu Huan's head." class!"

"It doesn't matter who cut off Chu Huan's head. I just hope that I can see Chu Huan's head in front of me tomorrow morning at the latest." Zhu Lingyue said with a faint smile: "Ganhou is a man who wants to save face. If Chu Huan's head is really taken off by his men, his reputation will naturally be greatly shaken, but this is not a bad thing."

The Northwest Army moved at will, and after a commotion, the two generals of Marquis Gan led his men and horses into two groups, and went to the north and south to respond. At this time, some generals reported to Zhu Lingyue: "Zhu Du, the time of You has arrived! "

At this time, the sky was getting dark, Zhu Lingyue shook the reins of the horse slightly, stepped forward a few steps, and the flags were unfurled, he turned the horse's head, looked at the soldiers behind him, and finally said in a deep voice: "You all follow me from Tianshan Mountain, for the purpose of Suppress the traitor Chu Huan, the traitor is right in front of us today, and it is also a great opportunity for you to make contributions, I just hope that you will not let go of this opportunity!" Pulling out the saber at his waist, he said loudly: "Order all the ministries to prepare to attack!"

The Xiguan army in the racecourse seized the last time and made preparations for the battle. Standing on the sentry tower, Chu Huan had already heard the low-pitched sound of horns from Zhu Lingyue's main formation in the west. Diffuse, Gu Liangchen's troops, who were facing Chu Huan, also sounded horns. Standing on the sentry tower, in the dim sky, Chu Huan saw that the Tianshan cavalry who had dismounted and waited had already mounted their horses.

The sky and the earth are vast, and the sound of the horn echoes between the sky and the earth.

Chu Huan saw that although his soldiers looked resolute, many of them were still a little nervous in the face of the large and powerful Tianshan Army, and suddenly said loudly: "Brothers, do you want to eat braised pork?"

The Xiguan soldiers were all nervous and prepared to fight to the death. When Chu Huan suddenly said this, the soldiers were a little surprised. Many people looked at Chu Huan, but they saw Chu Huan condescending and said with a smile: "My supervisor, listen!" Said that Tianshan not only has many war horses, but also raises a lot of meat pigs. The governor also heard that Zhu Lingyue is sure to win this battle, thinking that he will definitely win, and even prepared to kill the pigs after the Tianshan army triumphs. Slaughter the sheep and make braised pork for them to celebrate!"

Immediately, some soldiers laughed.

"The governor also wants to eat braised pork, and I know that you are also a bunch of gluttons, and you are also salivating for the braised pork in Tianshan. This governor here makes an agreement with you. Once we win this battle, we will go to Tianshan. Take out the braised pork they are stewing in the pot, and eat as much as you want." Chu Huan touched his lips, "Tell Ben Du, do you want to go?"

The Xiguan soldiers below said in unison, "I think, let's grab their braised pork!"

"Okay!" Chu Huan laughed and said, "Let's make an agreement like this. I will always be with you and never leave. I also hope that you... live...!"

"Never leave, never give up... live... never leave, never give up... live...!"

The shouts reverberated between the sky and the sea, and they swung far away. Gu Liangchen's troops, who were about to launch an attack, seemed to be overwhelmed by the momentum of the Xiguan Army at such an instant.

They heard the shouts in the racecourse, like thousands of troops, but looking over at this moment, because of the obstruction of the wooden fence and earth wall, they couldn't see the situation inside clearly. It seemed that the shouts from the opposite side also aroused the emotions of the Tianshan cavalry , Gu Liangchen took the lead, raised his saber high, and shouted, when the saber fell, the cavalry behind him rushed out like wolves and tigers.

The cavalry was sturdy, and amidst the roar, the hoofs of the horses were flying, dust and smoke were everywhere, and the momentum was unstoppable for a while.
