"Hejian Zhang He, whose courtesy name is Junyi, is one of the four court pillars of Jizhou. He is highly skilled in martial arts and good at commanding troops. He is a general who has risen to fame in the Jizhou army in recent years." Li Zhi replied without thinking.

"Zhang He and Zhang Junyi? It turned out to be him." Li Li murmured in surprise, then his face changed suddenly, and he waved his hands: "No, Zhang Yan is in danger! Immediately send an order for the whole army to go straight to Yuan Shao's army! I hope it is not too late."

Chapter 765

While chuckling, Li Li suddenly thought of something, and asked: "Oh, by the way, the general Yuan Jun who escaped just now is good at martial arts, and his formation is quite organized. Who is he?"

"Hejian Zhang He, whose courtesy name is Junyi, is one of the four court pillars of Jizhou. He is highly skilled in martial arts and good at commanding troops. He is a general who has risen to fame in the Jizhou army in recent years." Li Zhi replied without thinking.

"Zhang He Zhang Junyi? So it was him."

Li Li groaned in surprise, and then his face changed suddenly: "No, Zhang Yan is in danger! Immediately send an order to the whole army to go straight to Yuan Shao's army!"

"Uh! Why is this?" Li Zhi asked in amazement.

Li Li said: "Zhang He is the general of Jizhou. After the death of Wen Chou and Yan Liang, this person should have been guarding Yuan Shao. Especially at this moment, Zhang Yan is leading troops to attack the Chinese army, and Yuan Shao's safety is threatened. At this critical juncture, Zhang He should Stay by Yuan Shao's side and cannot leave for a moment. However, he has the time to lead his army to resist our army's surprise attack. What does this mean? That is to say, the Black Mountain Army under Zhang Yan has been severely injured by Yuan Jun, and Yuan Shao is sure that he can only With the more than [-] soldiers and horses around him, he completely wiped out the Black Mountain Army, so he sent Zhang Xi to prevent our army from rushing to help Zhang Yan. In this way, Zhang Yan and his [-] Black Mountain Army are definitely in danger and will be destroyed soon."

After finishing speaking, Li Li waved his hand to signal Li Zhi not to say more: "Zicheng quickly assemble the army, I will launch an attack immediately, otherwise the Black Mountain Army will be wiped out. No matter what, I, Li Li, will not stand by Seeing so many Black Mountain Army soldiers die in vain, we must lead the army to rescue. We can save as much as we can, and I hope it is not too late."

"No!" Seeing this.Li Zhi didn't say any more, and immediately went to organize the army to fight.

Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that Li Zhi had gone far away, and Li Li looked at the Yuan Junshuai flag swaying in the wind with a stern expression.A look of disappointment appeared on his face.

He only heard him muttering to himself: "Until now, Yuan Shao's long-planned conspiracy has still not leaked a trace, and the flag of the Chinese Army Commander is still upright. Zhang Yan, Zhang Yan, you hold a full 3 black mountains in your hand." Army, but you can't break through Yuan Shaozhong's army of more than [-] horsemen, you let me down so much!"

As soon as the words fell, Li Zhi left and returned.He stepped forward on his horse and said respectfully: "My lord, all the more than [-] war cavalry are ready. Please give me an order, my lord."

"Order Wangdang to lead three thousand Black Mountain war cavalry back to Yuan Jun's flank, and directly attack Yuan Shaoshuai's banner. Chen Dao led Feiyan Qingqi to attack from the front, and took Yuan Shaoxiang's head directly; if possible, try to rescue Zhang Yan. Jin Yiwei Follow me around. Wait for the opportunity to move. Don't move without my order!"

"No, my lord, wait for a while, and I will pass on this order at the end." Li Zhi respectfully ordered, reined in his horse, turned around and retreated.

A moment later, there was a sudden "da da" sound of horseshoes, but seeing more than [-] Montenegrin cavalry split into two, Wang Dang and Chen Daoer followed the order.They each led their troops straight to Yuan Shao's army and galloped away.

So far, only three thousand soldiers and horses remained beside Li Li.At this time, more than 10,000 cavalry from the Xiliang Army were still on the main battlefield a few miles away, fighting fiercely with the soldiers and horses of Lu Bu, Liu Bei, and tens of thousands of Yuan Jun.Judging from this situation, it is very difficult for the Xiliang Army to completely defeat the Allied Army in a short period of time. If they want to defeat Lu Bu and Liu Bei's [-]+ army head-on, it is very likely that the result will be determined after a fierce battle overnight.However, if it was just to break through the Allied defenses and come to support Li Li, no matter if it was the Flying Bear Battalion, the Qinglong Battalion, the Shuofeng Battalion, or the Longxiang Battalion, it only took half an hour to tear open a hole and rush to Li Li's side.

And this is precisely the result of Li Li's deliberate arrangement.What he most wanted to see was that Zhang Yan led his troops to force Yuan Shao to retreat, thus exposing the conspiracy that Yuan Shao had been hiding all along.Once Yuan Shao's plan was exposed, Li Li immediately led the Jinyi Guards back to the main battlefield, flanked Huan Fei, Dian Wei, Zhang Liao and others, and then joined forces to defeat the main force of the Allied forces in one fell swoop.However, if Yuan Shao's conspiracy lingers, Li Li will not leave the Allied rear, let alone lead his army to attack Yuan Shao's army.

Therefore, before that, Li Li had always pinned his hopes on Zhang Yan and the Black Mountain Army.But now Zhang Yan and the Black Mountain Army were unable to attack for a long time, but lost to Yuan Shao's army and were in danger. This prompted Li Li to send Feiyan Qingqi to continue attacking Yuan Shao's army.Moreover, in order to ensure nothing goes wrong, he also asked his trusted general Chen Dao to lead the army in person.

Obviously, Li Li is determined to win this battle, and will not give up until he achieves his goal.Casualties are not considered, no cost is spared, even if all [-] Black Mountain troops are involved.It has to be said that Li Li at this moment is indeed iron-blooded and ruthless, as if he completely treats the Black Mountain Army as an abandoned child, without any mercy.

"My lord, Wang Dang and Chen Dao have already led the troops to fight."

Just as Li Li was staring at Yuan Junshuaiqi in a daze, Li Zhi quietly came behind him and reported respectfully.

"Well, I've seen it all. I hope they can live up to their high expectations and succeed in one fell swoop." Li Li nodded without looking back.

Li Zhi nodded happily, and said in a low voice: "There is something that I don't understand at the end, I beg your lord to make it clear. Now that the army has been sent out, why should we stay here?"

"Nothing. I just want to see with my own eyes what Yuan Shao's plot is and what he wants to do. And this is the best position on the entire battlefield. It is the closest to him, and he can advance and retreat freely without worrying about being ambushed or surrounded by the enemy." Li Li said in a low voice without concealment.

Li Zhi nodded slightly, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of the handsome flag beside him, he was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyes to look at the main battlefield where the Fei Xiong soldiers were, and saw the same handsome flag flying in the night sky.

"My lord, this..." For a moment, Li Zhi pointed at the handsome flag beside him in astonishment, and then pointed at the battle flag flying on the main battlefield: "How can our army have two handsome flags?"

"Oh, this handsome flag was just hung up." Li Li looked back at his handsome flag and smiled disapprovingly.

"Ugh!" Li Zhi was stunned when he heard the sound, and looked at Li Li in bewilderment: "According to what the general knows, since ancient times, there can be many general flags on the battlefield, and each battalion leader has his own general flag. There can only be one commander-in-chief flag in the army. But now our army has two commander-in-chief flags, won’t this make our soldiers at a loss what to do?”

Li Li nodded happily and said: "Zicheng is right. There is indeed only one side of the commander-in-chief flag, so that the entire army can be dispatched in a unified manner. Orders and prohibitions; otherwise, many schools will be sent out, causing chaos in the army. However, the reason why I ordered the soldiers just now Putting up this handsome flag. But it has other intentions. Before the army attacked, I told Huan Fei that once he saw another handsome flag appearing in the rear of the allied army, he would drop down the central army when the army rushed to the rear. Shuai Banner, let the Shuai Banner next to us take over the whole army. This is Li Daitao's tactic, a stopgap measure. It is okay to use it once in a while. If it is used many times, it will not work.

There is indeed a certain risk in this plan. In case the enemy finds out the news in advance, they should also prepare a handsome flag.The consequences will be unimaginable, and it will inevitably lead to chaos in our army, and the soldiers will not know what to do, so that a big defeat is inevitable.Fortunately.Only you and I, Huan Fei and Feng Xiao know about this matter.Other than that, there is no fifth person who knows, and others naturally have no way of knowing. "

Speaking of this, Li Li paused for a moment, and said in a low voice: "The reason why I did this is only one purpose, that is to hide my whereabouts and wait for the opportunity to sneak to the rear of the Allied forces. Wait until Zhang Yan, Chen Dao and Wang Dang After discovering Yuan Shao's plan, I immediately raised the banner and led the whole army to attack and kill. I vowed to defeat the allied army in one fell swoop. Before that, the handsome flag beside us was for Huan Fei to see and wait for him to wave it After the flag responded, we hid the handsome flag and waited until the last moment to play it out."

"Huh?" Before the words finished, Li Li exclaimed, and then pointed to the Xiliang Commander-in-Chief flag waving above the battlefield, and said to Li Zhi: "Look, that is Huan Fei waving the flag in response, which means he has seen it. Our handsome flag knows where we are."

"Oh?" Li Zhi looked up in astonishment, and sure enough, he saw the handsome flag waving in the air in the distance: "Well, that's true. Feihu's reaction speed is really fast. We just erected the handsome flag on our side, and it was immediately caught by him." Found!"

Li Li nodded and said: "Flying Tiger is indeed powerful. He can see all directions and hear all directions. In addition, he is extremely tall and sits on the back of a golden beast. He is a head taller than everyone else, so naturally he can immediately See the handsome flag."

Speaking of this, Li Li hurriedly urged: "Hurry up, Zicheng, order the soldiers of the Golden Guards to extinguish the torches! This way, others will not be able to see the handsome flag, and naturally they will not know that I, Li Li, are in the rear of the Allied forces at this time." .”

"Promise." Li Zhi accepted the order, and then beckoned to his own soldiers to convey the order separately. Not long after, the more than [-] golden guard cavalry all put out the torches, and hid in the semi-darkness with their men and horses.

Being in the dark, Li Li and the others could actually see the battle of Yuan Shao's army two hundred paces away.

At this time, Li Li suddenly discovered that the Black Mountain Army led by Zhang Yan still had 3 to [-] troops. Although the situation was dangerous, it would not be wiped out by Yuan Jun in the short term.The two new forces, Chen Dao and Wang Dang, who had just joined the battle, played an invisible role in turning the tide of the battle, directly urging Zhang Yan and the Black Mountain Army under his tent to escape from danger, and then turned from defense to offense.The three groups of troops cooperated very tacitly, and quickly besieged the [-] Yuan Army regiments around Yuan Shao, pressing on step by step, squeezing Yuan Jun's room for movement little by little, making Yuan Jun extremely passive and in a very disadvantageous situation.

Seeing this, Li Li breathed a sigh of relief and was in a good mood. He casually asked Li Zhi, "Zicheng, what time is it,,, uh, what time is it?" Common words blurted out, but luckily he found out in time and changed his words immediately.

Li Zhi often heard Li Li say some strange words, but now he was not surprised.After hearing the words, he looked up at the stars in the sky, and said casually, "My lord, it's probably the first hour of Yin time (that is, three o'clock in the morning)."

Li Li has always been envious of Li Zhi's ability to know the time by looking up at the sky, but he has never been able to spare time to study, let alone learn it for a while.Therefore, most of the time Li Zhi is his clock, he just asks if he wants to know the time, and Li Zhi can tell the time very accurately, if there is a minute and a second in this era, then the time Li Zhi said can definitely be called the minute Not bad seconds.

"So, Zilong and Gongming have already arrived at the agreed place and have been waiting for orders?" Li Li was surprised.

"Eh?" Li Zhi was taken aback when he heard the sound, and replied in astonishment: "That's right. The general pleaded guilty and left this matter behind, almost delaying the important event!"

Chapter 766

After hearing the words, Li Zhi looked up at the stars in the sky, and said casually: "My lord, it's probably the first hour of Yin time (that is, three o'clock in the morning)."

"So, Zilong and Gongming have already arrived at the appointed place and have been waiting for orders?" Li Li asked in surprise.

"Eh?" Li Zhi was taken aback when he heard the sound, and then responded in astonishment: "That's right. The general apologized and forgot about this matter, almost delaying the important event!"

Li Li shook his head slightly: "Zicheng doesn't need to blame himself, I can't blame you for this matter. After all, I am the coach, I have forgotten the time, how can I blame you?"

Li Zhi respectfully said: "Thank you, my lord, for your generosity. This matter is indeed a dereliction of duty at the end of the day. I should have reminded my lord of the time earlier, but I didn't expect it to be delayed after the previous fight."

After a pause, Li Zhi raised his eyes to look at the forest in the south of Loudiyuan, and thoughtfully said: "According to the agreement ten days ago, General Xu Rong sent two generals, Zhao Yun and Xu Huang, with [-] soldiers and horses at noon the day before yesterday. Departing from Xingyang, sneaked into the southern mountain forest [-] miles away secretly, and arrived at the scheduled location by midnight. Now it is the first hour of the Yin hour, presumably the two generals have already led their troops to the outskirts of the southern forest, waiting for the lord to give orders, they Then he can lead the army to attack from the rear of the allied army, not only can surprise the allied army's big stronghold, but also sneak attack the allied army's rear army, killing him by surprise."

Li Li nodded happily and said: "Zilong and Gongming are both civil and military generals. They are calm and well versed in battlefield conquests. With a little training, they can be independent. The reason why I let them stay in Xingyang camp before is because It's for today's battle. Just"

Having said that, Li Li's voice paused for a while.He pondered and said: "It's just that the current situation is unclear. If Zilong and the others are rashly ordered to lead the army to attack the Allied camp, I'm afraid it won't achieve the effect of a sudden surprise attack. Instead, they will be entangled by the enemy, stuck around the enemy camp and difficult to escape. If They were ordered to attack the Allied forces from behind, but they only had 2 troops on this trip, which was a drop in the bucket for hundreds of thousands of allied forces. It was like a mayfly shaking a tree, but the effect was still very small. Zilong and Gongming's road Soldiers and horses are the only hidden support for our army. If you don’t move, you will be killed. It is the last straw that breaks the camel of the Allied army. Therefore, it is not the best time for them to attack. Hold on."

"This..." Li Zhi pondered for a while while hesitating, then nodded and agreed: "My lord has considered everything carefully, and there will be no objections in the end."

The voice did not fall.Li Zhi then said: "However, my lord, do you still remember the signal agreed in the secret letter sent to General Xu Rong?"

"Of course I remember." Li Li nodded slightly, and said without hesitation: "According to the agreement, the sounding arrow will be used as the number in the decisive battle. A sounding arrow is launched into the air, which means that the whole army is ordered to attack, ordering them to lead their troops to attack the alliance directly." The rear of the army. If there are two ringing arrows flying into the sky, it means that the [-] soldiers led by Zilong and Gong Ming will be dispatched at the same time to directly attack the Allied Dazhai. If there are three ringing arrows, it means think twice All right, the intention is for the two of them to play by ear. It is entirely up to them to decide whether to attack the Allied camp or attack the Allied rear."

At the end, Li Li turned his head to look at Li Zhi, and asked suspiciously: "Why did Zicheng ask this question, could there be another good plan?"

"My lord Mingjian, the last general does have some ideas, so I ask my lord to make a decision." Li Zhi continued.

"Oh?" Li Li was a little surprised, nodded and said, "Zicheng can speak up as much as he wants, without any scruples, and there is no fault in speaking."
