Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 51 Confrontation
Originally, Li Yue had some respect for Xuanyuan Mountain, but they had bad intentions for Heiyun Mountain.

Cui Jin's last news two months ago said that everything was under control, and expressed Heiyunshan's goodwill to Guo Shi in a circumstantial manner.

I don't know why Xuanyuan Mountain sent people to spy on him.

Could it be that Cui Jin was seen through by Guo Shi?

Thinking about it carefully, the possibility is unlikely. If Guo Shi finds out the clue, the best way is to pretend not to know, pretend to form an alliance, and then take Heiyunshan out of the pot. There is no need to show hostility prematurely.

Li Yue could only continue to wait for news from the scouts.

Xuanyuan Mountain is related to the next development of Heiyun Mountain.

There is no need to think about the north and east, under the eyes of Yecheng, there are all important military towns controlled by the Jie people, and expanding northward is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.

To the west is Luochuan, which is also the key area of ​​Jie Zhao's business, so it can only go south.

Chonggao and Mixian are connected to Heiyun Mountain, and both are mountainous areas, with great potential for development.

After unblocking these two places, the passage to Luyang Tieshan in the south will be opened.

When the iron, coal, and people are available, Heiyun Mountain will be able to leap up.

But now that Xuanyuan Mountain has changed, the plan can only be interrupted.

As the autumn harvest approached, the two groups of men and horses in the south were eager to move. They sent a small group of troops to cross Weishui to plunder the grain south of Weishui Fort, and some young people who were busy in the fields were also taken away by them.

It wasn't until the scout battalion was assembled, and in one day, there were eleven small battles, killing more than 100 of them and more than 40 of the scouts, that they were driven back to the south of Weishui.

But the opponent did not restrain himself, instead gathered a large force and charged towards Boshui Fort.

The breath of war permeated the air.

Li Yue personally led the troops down the mountain and faced off on both sides of the Weishui River.

The red flag on the north bank is like blood, and the spears are like rows of reeds.

There are two groups of people on the south bank, one east and one west. There are two thousand people on the west side, but they are ragged and listless. Beggars.

Xuanyuan Mountain has guarded the lonely mountain for nearly 20 years, and has never actively expanded, so that it has become the tragedy it is today.

And since Heiyun Mountain annexed Jijiabao, it has never stopped for a day, annexing the surrounding forces frantically, which also caused Heiyun Mountain to be extremely aggressive up and down.

The east side has a bit of momentum, with mixed infantry and cavalry, with more than 100 shields and spears in the front row, a group of archers in the middle, and more than a hundred cavalry on each side.

They were real cavalry, and everyone rode back and forth on their horses, as if they were looking for their own weaknesses, and occasionally shot an arrow to test the reaction of the North Shore.

The two sides faced each other like this, Li Yue didn't dare to cross the river, and he didn't dare to come over from the other side.

"Master Guo, please come out and tell me!" Li Yue shouted at the opposite side, but there was no response.

The dull confrontation lasted a day and a night.

The soldiers did not move, and the scouts strangled fiercely.

The scouts in Heiyun Mountain were not mere scouts, they shot every arrow and were tenacious in fighting spirit, but there were horses on the opposite side, coming and going like the wind, donkeys and mules were still a bit weaker in front of the horses, and they were barely evenly matched.

Li Yue became angry, and people shouted: "Fight and not fight, retreat and never retreat, why?"

Wei Shan said angrily: "Damn it, you really think we are afraid of him! I would like to lead three hundred soldiers to cross the river and fight!"

Li Yue looked at the south bank, and the people of Mi County in the east couldn't bear it anymore, after all, they couldn't sleep a day and a night.

The people in Xuanyuan Mountain to the west were even more dejected, and even moved back dozens of steps, as if they didn't want to be on the front line.

With just this small action, Li Yue knew that they were not in the same heart.

Looking back at the formation, the soldiers' eyes were bloodshot, just waiting for the kill to cross the shore.

The high-intensity training during this period was not in vain, and the soldiers were all really young and strong, staying up all night was nothing.

The officers kept on boosting morale.

Xu Chengdao: "They have come to plunder and come for profit, and now they are against our army. They have nothing to gain, but they don't leave. They must be cheating!"

This confrontation was inherently full of weirdness.

Wei Shan was startled and said, "Could it be that you are making a noise?"

This possibility is very high. Weishui can't walk. They can go around from Jing County in the west.

From this point of view, the opponent didn't come here for the food in the field at all, but to attack Heiyun Mountain!
"Order to strengthen the scouts near Jing County."

"Follow the order!" Zhang Shengye headed northeast with more than a hundred scouts on donkeys.

"Beat the drum, shout, Xu Cheng led three hundred soldiers across the river to attack the bandits on the west bank of Xuanyuan Mountain!" Li Yue decided to break the deadlock, feeling that the opposite party's coming this time was not that simple.

Continue to drag, the situation will be even more unfavorable.

"Decree!" Xu Cheng raised his long sword and went down the river with a shield of three hundred swords.

The sound of drums and shouts rang together.

The river here is not deep, at most submerged the neck, wearing heavy armor is not easy to be washed away by the river.

Seeing the 300 men and horses from Heiyun Mountain approaching aggressively, the other side was obviously a little unbelievable. After a moment of dazed effort, Xu Chengcheng led the men to the shore.

"Come and die!" Xu Cheng raised his knife and roared together with the soldiers.

Although he is short in stature, he is extremely vigorous, striding forward, with a shield in his left hand and a knife in his right, walking in the forefront.

Li Yue was always watching the movements of the troops in Mi County on the north bank. As long as they dared to move, Li Yue would immediately order the whole army to attack.

However, the people in Mi County remained motionless.

When the snipe and the clam compete for the fisherman's profit, everyone wants to be a fisherman, not a snipe and a clam.

Just as Xu Cheng rushed over with murderous aura, Xuanyuan Mountain's people suddenly dispersed, turned around and ran away...

Li Yue remembered that Cui Jin said that Xuanyuan Mountain was quite powerful, but he didn't expect it to be so rotten, which made Li Yue more sure that something must have happened on Xuanyuan Mountain.

"Good opportunity!" Li Yue asked the flag bearer to wave the tooth flag to the west.

After chasing for a while, Xu Cheng turned his direction and killed the troops of Mi County.

"Cross the river!" Li Yue drew his sword and was the first to jump into the river, followed by Wei Shan.

The soldiers rushed into the water, and the water splashed.

This group of people came to rob their food and destroy their fields.

Fighting for themselves, of course, everyone is brave, yelling and killing the people of Mi County in the east.

"Death! Death!" the soldiers shouted over and over again.

When a rain of arrows fell, the soldiers squatted in the water and easily avoided the rain of arrows. They were all close to death. They had been fighting for many years and had extremely rich experience. Many Li Yue did not expect that they had already formed a habit.

"Call..."

When the soldiers walked out of the river, the horses were agitated by the murderous intent, and kept retreating. No matter how the cavalry whipped them, they dared not move forward.

The comparison these days is who wants to die.

For the sake of forgetting the home, forgetting the relatives beyond the bounds, and forgetting the enemy, one must die and live.Hundreds of people are slaughtered, falling into chaos, thousands of people are slaughtered, enemies and generals are captured, ten thousand people are slaughtered, and they run rampant all over the world!
Only now did Li Yue understand the essence of the art of war. If 1 people sacrifice their lives, they can rule the world.
