Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 193
Ran Min will definitely come, the key is where he comes from.

Surabaya was well defended, and the barbarians in Zhao's army were not good at water, so the battle would definitely not be here.

The terrain of Taishan County in the east is complicated, which is not conducive to raising troops.

The only possibility is to go to Jibei County in the northwest, pass Rencheng, and attack the side of Lu County from the west.

"General, great joy, Dongjun Liu Qijiang!" At this moment, Zhang Shengye hurriedly came to report.

Although he had expected it in advance, upon hearing the news, Li Yue felt a big stone in his heart, and the biggest benefit of this war was in his pocket.

The land of Yanzhou was saved from a war, and his own Yanzhou pastor finally lived up to his name.

"How about Jibei, Mount Tai, and Dongping?"

"Jibei and Dongping surrendered together, and the news of Taishan County has not yet spread."

"Order Xu Cheng to rush to Dongping Kingdom with two thousand riders at a high speed, and the scouts should do more reconnaissance!"

"Wei!" Zhang Shengye cupped his hands and left.

All of a sudden, the whole city of Lu and the camps outside shouted like a tsunami, "Long live, long live!"

The soldiers cheered like thunder, and they were even more surprised than Li Yue.

For more than two years, how can the soldiers not be happy from being a refugee bandit to today?
Swallowing Yanzhou, Heiyun Mountain has taken the first step in this troubled world.

The morale of the Black Cloud Army reached its peak in an instant.

The enemy army was still crossing the river, but when they heard the deafening roar, they retreated again...

North Shore of Surabaya.

Ran Min was looking at the Heiyun army on the other side with a group of Hu Jin generals.

The sudden cheers made them a little dazed.

Zhang Wen said: "This is why Liu Qi must carry me and return to Heiyun Mountain!"

There was a burst of anger on Ran Min's face, Dongjun was related to the victory or defeat of this battle, and Ran Min had already made promises, as long as Liu Qi was willing to help, not only would the past be forgiven, but he would also be promoted to Shangshu Zuopushe and named Yunhou.

Even if Liu Qi didn't surrender himself, as long as he remained neutral, Ran Min would have the confidence to defeat the Heiyun army.

"A detailed report, a few days ago, Fangtou's thousands of Di troops joined the bandit army!" Wang Jian, who joined the army, changed the subject.

During the great chaos in Hebei, not only 20 refugees went south, but more than [-] refugees wanted to return to the west.

These people are the people of various ethnic groups who were forced to relocate from Guanzhong by Shihu back then. They have lived in Hebei for 17 years and are still nostalgic for their hometown.

Now that Shi Hu is dead, and the kings of Jie and Zhao are fighting with each other, seeing that there will be chaos in Hebei, it is natural for people to return.

Fangtou's benefits are not under the Black Cloud Mountain.

That's why Pu Hong did not hesitate to send troops to assist Heiyun Mountain and hold Ran Min back.

"Shi Cheng, the leader of the army, Shi Qi, the servant, and Shi Hui, the prefect of Hedong, have had a lot of contact with His Majesty recently. King Xinxing colluded with Yao Yizhong secretly in Xiangguo. This battle should be done quickly rather than later, and it cannot be delayed any longer." Zhang Wen said cautiously.

He was also a beggar general, and he had little interest in attacking the Heiyun army.

After so many days of confrontation, the Surabaya defense line remained motionless, but Zhao Jun was quite tired.

When Shi Hu was still alive, Ran Min once said: "Pu Hong is so handsome, he must get rid of the soldiers, so he should get rid of them as soon as possible."

When Liangzhou was defeated, Shi Hu did not act rashly.

In fact, Ran Min was very annoyed at Li Nong, Li Nong also set off this war, while Li Yue was in Lu County, the northern and southern armies attacked him with the momentum of a great victory, and resolved the troubles of Heiyun Mountain in one fell swoop.

Ran Min rushed over in a hurry, but Li Nong didn't even last ten days. The city was destroyed and everyone was captured alive.

Wang Jiandao: "The chief governor and Li Shijun have an old relationship, so we might as well call off the troops for a while and make peace. Forgive me for your subordinates to say bluntly that the chief governor's trouble lies in the north, not in the south."

Ran Min looked at the Heiyun army roaring with waves, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes, "Even if we want to strike down the troops and make peace, we must severely set back the Heiyun army's momentum. Send an order that [-] elite infantrymen follow me to meet Li Xingjin in person!"

A heavy rain poured on both sides of Surabaya, and the river became more turbulent.

The floating corpses crowded in the river were washed down by the flood, and the bloody and rancid smell that soared into the sky was much lessened.

There is no doubt that this war has reached the most critical moment.

Liu Qi's surrender brought no suspense to the battle. With the support of Yanzhou's most affluent Dongjun, the Heiyun Army could hold out for at least half a year, but the opposing Ran Min definitely couldn't last.

Based on Li Yue's understanding of Ran Min, he will definitely make a desperate blow!
"Report to the general, Taishan County surrenders!"

"Report to the general, Colonel Xu has entered Dongping Kingdom."

"Report to the general, Ren Chengguo will report carefully, Qi Min and Ran Min on the north shore have frequent contacts."

"Report to the general, at the hour of yesterday, Ran Min personally led [-] elite troops to ride westward!"

The news sent by the scouts was almost within Li Yue's expectations.

As soon as Ran Min's army arrived, Ren Chengguo Qi Min flirted with him. Li Yue had heard about it for a long time. Dongjun did not surrender, and Ren Chengguo was sandwiched between Lu Jun and Chen Liu, posing a great threat.

But now that Liu Qi has surrendered, Ren Chengguo has become a shackle.

And Ran Min, who really made a move.

With Xu Cheng's 2000 troops, I'm afraid they are not his opponents.

The northern bank of Sishui without Ran Min poses little threat to Lu County. Now that the river is soaring, it is even more impossible to cross the river on the opposite side. "Command General Pu Xiong to send troops with me to help Dongping Kingdom!"

"Wei!" The soldiers left in a hurry.

Li Yue stared at the map and carefully recalled whether there were any mistakes or omissions.

If the husband has not fought and the temple counts as a winner, it must be counted as more; if the temple has not fought and the temple is counted as invincible, it must be counted as less, more counts as victory, and less counts as invincible.

Many things on the battlefield are obvious.

[-] elites were dispatched, and the scouts would not be mistaken. Even if Ran Min wasn't inside, eating these elites would hurt Ran Min's muscles and bones.

The real usable army in his hand was the [-] Gaoli imperial guards and the more than [-] Guangzong begging living army. After these two elites were wiped out, I am afraid that Ran Min would never recover from the fall. The elites cannot be recruited casually.

The Gaoli Imperial Guard and the Guangzong Qihuo Army are veterans who have fought in the battlefield for many years.

Unknowingly, my eyes moved to one place, and my heart moved. Sometimes I still have to defend. Strategically, you can despise the enemy, but tactically, you must pay attention to it.

An hour later, the [-] Heiyun Army and the [-] Di Army headed northwest.

Lu County was left for Liang Xiao and Bo Wu to defend.

The heavy rain made the roads muddy, rivers flooded everywhere, and wild fish washed up on the official roads, making marching very inconvenient.

But the difficulties are the same, it is difficult on my side, and it is even more difficult on Ran Min's side.

"Hurry up, hurry up!" Di Jun on the left was striding forward in the muddy water carrying equipment weighing dozens of kilograms.

This time, Puhong spent a lot of money, and the three thousand people were well-equipped, all wearing iron armor, half with bows and spears, and half with swords and shields.

Pu Xiong came from behind, followed by a few generals, "Jan Min is the lord of the cavalry, this heavy rain is beneficial to our army! General, why not abandon the horses and livestock, and go straight ahead with light soldiers, and you will be able to reach Dongping first!"

Li Yue looked back and saw that the hoofs of the horses were completely stuck in the mud, many donkeys and mules slipped and fell, and seven or eight soldiers went to help them.

"Thank you, General, for reminding me!" Others were polite, and Li Yue also bowed politely.

Pu Xiong said with a smile: "After this battle, Heiyun Mountain has gained a firm foothold in the Central Plains. From now on, you should be closer to my family."

The reason for being so close to Fangtou is that there is no conflict of interest for the time being.

Under the pressure of Ran Min, they had to hug each other to keep warm.

It doesn't really matter how good the relationship is.

Just as he was about to reply, he saw a burly one-eyed general beside him saying harshly, "You are Li Yue?"

Pu Hong talked with his peers, Pu Xiong was polite to him, but this person called him by his first name, and his words were very disrespectful.

"Changsheng is rude!" Pu Xiong scolded.

The one-eyed general snorted coldly, and strode forward with the knife in hand.

Pu Xiong cupped his hands again and again, "This son has a weird temperament since he was a child, I hope the general will forgive me a lot."

"Where is it? It's just a momentary loss of words." Li Yue didn't take it too seriously. Right now, he still needs to rely on the strength of the Di people. Naturally, it is impossible for a word of Meng Lang to cause a breakdown in the relationship.
