"Really? You need to pay attention to this. In my opinion, it is better to strengthen the army and prepare the soldiers to go to war at any time!" Hua Mulan didn't understand the real situation, so she said this to Zhao Junsheng.

Zhao Junsheng nodded: "I have ordered the spy to continue to investigate carefully, trying to find out what happened to the Yan army, so that we can make corresponding deployments! It's just that Yuyang prefect and Zhenbei general Feng Da are rebellious and don't listen to orders. , this matter is a little difficult!"

Hua Mulan heard the words

He frowned, "Feng Da? Since he didn't obey orders, why didn't brother Junsheng take him down? Report to the imperial court to re-appoint the prefect!"

Zhao Junsheng shook his head: "This matter is not that simple. This Fengda has managed Yuyang like an iron bucket. Needles can't be inserted and water can't be poured in. Moreover, this person has many complaints against the court and the emperor. As long as I If there is any trouble in the side, it may force him to turn against him, if he takes refuge in Beiyan, it will not be good news for us!"

A few days later, Generalissimo Zhang Xing led an army of [-] across the border and invaded Yuyang. Pinggu and Hunu were captured successively. Thousands of cavalry attacked, but were defeated by Zhang Xing with an absolute superiority. Feng Da immediately retreated to Yuyang County, only relying on hundreds of people to defend the city, and sent fast horses to ask Zhao Junsheng for help. They came to rescue, but Zhang Xing set up an ambush on the way with the strategy of besieging the city and annihilating the [-] reinforcements in Kuangping.

So far, the Wei army in Yuyang has been completely lost, leaving only a few hundred defenders in Yuyang County.

Zhao Junsheng received the distress letter, but tore it up.

"Li Bao!"

"exist!"

"Go and kill the messenger in secret, don't tell anyone about this!"

"As ordered!"

Zhao Junsheng summoned civil and military officials to the governor's mansion to discuss matters on the second day.

"Everyone, the Yan army has arrived at Yuyang city, how should I deal with it?"

Dongfang Chen stood up and cupped his hands and said, "General, this subordinate thinks we are ready, don't be caught off guard by the Yan army!"

Hua Mulan also stood up and said: "I agree with Mr. Dongfang's words, we don't know how long Yuyang can last, but we are now gathering troops and horses, and at the same time sending scouts to find out the military situation!"

At this moment, a soldier ran in quickly to report: "General Qi, the Yan army has broken through Yuyang, Yuyang prefect Feng Da led a hundred people to break through and flee to Rouran!"

"Hey, this Feng Da's life is really big, he won't die!" Zhao Junsheng couldn't help but stood up and said, and after thinking about it, he immediately ordered: "Li Bao, go and give Gao Xu an order to lead his army to march eastward and capture Kuang Ping Shu!"

Chapter 468 The Brave Wins

Feng Da was beaten away by the Northern Yan army. When he was in Yuyang, Zhao Junsheng could not easily send troops to attack him. Although this guy was not very obedient, he was still a minister of the Northern Wei Dynasty. Now that the Northern Yan army entered Yuyang, Zhao Junsheng There are no scruples, when will we wait if we don't send troops at this time?

Under Zhao Junsheng's series of orders, soldiers and horses from all walks of life in Youzhou, which had been prepared for battle, quickly assembled in Jixian County. Among them, there were [-] cavalry from Youzhou Army, [-] soldiers from Fan Yangliang Township, and [-] soldiers from the capital. Hundreds of soldiers and horses, plus the county soldiers of Fanyang and Yanjun, and Youzhou state soldiers, there are more than [-] Han troops.

It is [-] Xianbei cavalry plus [-] Han infantry. This is the largest force Zhao Junsheng can use on the surface. In fact, he has given up defense because all the troops from the two counties have been mobilized. Scattered in the two counties and each direction, it is easy to be defeated by the Yan army. It is better to concentrate to play a stronger combat effectiveness.

In fact, Zhao Junsheng can still use at least [-] Han infantry soldiers. These soldiers are farming and training at the same time. This is done without telling the court. Zhao Junsheng does not intend to let them be exposed, and will not use them unless forced .

Just when Zhao Junsheng was about to lead the army, Hua Mulan came to him and said, "Brother Junsheng, I plan to return to Wuchuan to accompany my mother and younger brother!"

How could Zhao Junsheng agree when he heard it?At that time, I was anxious, "This is a few days to leave? No, no, people say that they are fighting tigers and brothers, and their father -son soldiers; husband and wife can break the gold!"

Hua Mulan said, "I'll cause trouble for you by staying here, and it's not justifiable for me to stay here..."

"Isn't this easy to handle? I'll appoint you an official position. You will be the deputy general of the Youzhou Army. Army Sima Wei Chi Yandong will assist you in commanding the soldiers and horses. You see, a big war is about to break out here. You should leave at this time." Aren't you a deserter?"

Hua Mulan felt a little embarrassed by Zhao Junsheng's words and left. The main reason was that she was worried that other people would gossip. The two of them stuck together all day before they got married. Sometimes the power of gossip cannot be underestimated.

"It's okay if I don't leave, but you must promise me that I will go to the barracks to eat and live with the soldiers!"

Zhao Junsheng scratched his cheeks, looking embarrassed: "Well... it's okay to eat together, it's fine to live together, I..."

Hua Mulan interrupted him: "What are you thinking? I live in a dental tent, why worry about having female soldiers with you? It's settled!"

The happy life was far away from him, but Zhao Junsheng had no choice but to agree.

Early in the morning, there was a thundering drum sound from the barracks outside Jixian City, and the generals assembled quickly. The cavalry were arranged in square formations with buildings as the unit, and the infantry were arranged in six large square formations with thousands of people as the unit.

Zhao Junsheng and a group of officials from the governor's office rode horses and stood at the front of the team.

Cao Jiao rode his horse and ran over to report: "General, the whole army has assembled and can go out at any time!"

More than [-] people rode on horseback and glanced past. There was a large black area, and the entire school ground was full. It was really difficult for ordinary people to say a few words so that everyone could hear them, but this was for Zhao Junsheng. It is not difficult.

He mobilized his internal strength to speak out: "Generals and soldiers of the whole army, the country of Yan is fighting without declaration. Nearly 2 people suddenly rushed into our Youzhou territory and captured the entire territory of Yuyang County within three days. If we don't send troops again, the Yan army will soon It will be killed soon, and then Yan County and even the entire Youzhou territory will be devastated. Most of you are from Youzhou. If Youzhou falls to the Yan army, not only you, but also your family members will be killed by Yan. The poisonous hands of the army, so I can't just wait for death, I can't be caught without a fight, I must take the initiative to attack, will you soldiers be willing to fight with me to defeat the Yan army in order to protect the family and the elders in the hometown?"

All the soldiers were encouraged after hearing these words, and their morale suddenly rose. None of them wanted to wait for death, and none of them wanted to watch their family members and fellow villagers being tushed by the Yan army.

"Fight, fight, fight..." Everyone raised their weapons and roared in unison.

Zhao Junsheng raised his hand, the roar gradually stopped, and he ordered loudly: "Let the Youzhou Army take the lead and march towards Yuyang first, followed by the Army Capital Garrison, Liangxiang Army Garrison,

Youzhou state soldiers, Yanjun county soldiers, and Fanyang county soldiers, let's go! "

The army set off one by one, and when the soldiers of Fanyang County walked out of the barracks, [-] civilians had been waiting outside the barracks for a long time. They drove a large number of carriages, which were loaded with a large amount of luggage, and the soldiers of Fanyang County acted as escorts to transport the luggage.

The entire army was lined up, stretching a distance of seven miles.

Yan Jun's spies and secret agents are not for nothing. The news of Zhao Junsheng's dispatch of troops quickly spread to Yuyang. Zhang Xing, Generalissimo of the Army Expedition to the West.

The Yan army had just rested, and Zhang Xing heard that Zhao Junsheng sent troops, which happened to solve the military power of Youzhou once and for all, and completely captured Youzhou before the Northern Wei court reacted.

Zhang Xing ordered Yao Zhao to lead 5000 people to guard Yuyang County to ensure that there would be no problems with the supply of food, grass, ordnance and other supplies for the army. He himself led 3000 people on foot and marched south to face Zhao Junsheng's army.

In less than a day, the main force of the Yan army arrived in Anle, and just after setting up camp, a messenger came from Yuyang County to report: "Commander, a group of soldiers and horses suddenly appeared in the north and captured the Kuangping garrison. It is suspected that the Youzhou army , about [-] people, General Yao asked the villain to report, and asked the commander-in-chief to allow him to lead the army to fight, defeat the [-] Youzhou army, ensure the safety of Yuyang, and guard the retreat for the main force of the army!"

Zhang Xing instinctively felt that this sudden news was unusual. As an old opponent, he knew very well the bg li bu shu in Youzhou, and there was no other garrison in the north of Yuyang except Kuangping Garrison. Where did the Youzhou Army with more than [-] people come from?

After some consideration and weighing, Zhang Xing agreed to Yao Zhao's request to send troops. He said to the messenger: "Go back and tell Yao Zhao that the commander allows him to lead the army to attack, but you must ensure the safety of Yuyang!"

"Yes, handsome!"

The time Yao Zhao chose to send troops was very strange. Most of the commanders and generals would choose to go out in the morning, but Yao Zhao chose at dusk. In Yang County, I rode 1000 paces and set off to the north at dusk. The soldiers even ate their dinner in a hurry.

The sky gradually darkened, and the air was filled with dry heat. The sun had just dipped below the horizon, and the residual heat it left still shrouded the earth in heat.

As night fell, there were more mosquitoes, and the air was full of small waste mosquitoes, which accidentally flew into the eyes or inhaled into the nostrils, and the soldiers of the Yan army had to wave their hands to slap the mosquitoes while they were on their way.

At this time, Gao Xu was also setting off from Kuangping Garrison to Yuyang County with soldiers and horses. The two armies were heading towards each other, but Gao Xu's army did not light torches and had a guide to lead the way.

And Yan Jun lit torches under Yao Zhao's order, which not only attracted more mosquitoes, but also made the soldiers and horses stand out in the dark night in the wilderness.

Five or six miles away, Yao Zhao's army was discovered by Gao Xu's scouts, and the news was quickly reported to Gao Xu.

"Order the army to stop advancing, gather in formation, and get ready to attack!" Gao Xu issued an order to his subordinates.

The well-trained soldiers of the army completed the change of horses as quickly as possible, and formed a frontal formation to meet the enemy. They waited quietly in the dark night, even if they were bitten by mosquitoes, they did not make a sound.

The Yan army scouts who were exploring the way ahead were killed one by one silently.

Yao Zhao is not a reckless man who doesn't know anything. It has been a long time since the sentry sentry came back to report to the front. This made Yao Zhao suspicious. He immediately issued an order to stop the advance of the whole army.Continue to send scouts to investigate the situation.
