In the early morning of the ninth day of the 10th lunar month, it was just dawn. He Fu had arranged combat deployments for the two rebels in a village called Niuyueling.

There are many mountains and forests here, with the Zishui River to the south and east, and a river to the west called Huangbei River; the river wraps this place like a "concave", and He Fujun is in the middle of the concave...

The rebel Quneng troops are located on the west bank of Huangbei River and are currently stationed around a market called Nanyue Township.

On the river surface near the market, there is a stone arch bridge "Wenchang Bridge" funded by a gentry; to the south there is a river beach and Hexinzhou. Because the water is dry in winter, you can directly cross the river. However, the east bank of that place is surrounded by mountains and forests, and the terrain is complex. He Fu sent troops to guard these two places in advance.

The Han Wang Army's partial division of tens of thousands of infantry and cavalry (actually the main force of the Han Wang Army) is located on the south bank of Zishui, near a Jiangxin Island called "Nanyuezhou". Last night, the Han Wang Army had built a boat bridge on the narrow river surface overnight, and had already crossed the Zishui north this morning.

He Fu discussed with the generals and decided to first block the exhausted army of Qu Neng's troops on the west bank of Huangbei River; concentrate the main force to defeat the partial division of Han Wang's army near Zishui, and then return to the army to block the Qu Neng's rebels.

At this time, there was a sound of drums and trumpets around, and the horses were noisy. The troops were pulling their camps and advancing south. In addition to He Fu's army's 100,000 people, there were also 10,000 cavalry reinforcements from the north that came last evening. The morale of the soldiers was greatly boosted.

But the noise did not block the shout outside the door: "Report! General Pinghan's military order!"

After a while, the guards came into the house with a military general, and the civil and military officials in the house looked at each other.

He Fu took the military order of the lacquer seal and took it apart and read it himself first... Zhang Fu wrote something himself and stamped the seal of the General Pinghan. This is a very reliable military order. After reading the content, He Fu felt a "knock" in his heart and immediately understood: Zhang Fu already knew that the military situation was wrong!

He Fu calmed down and tried his best not to let his emotions appear on his face, but his expression still changed subtly.

"Let's go down." He Fu waved his hand calmly.

The general who delivered the letter held his fists and said he was leaving.

No one was talking in the room for a while, and the deputy generals and civil servants were waiting to observe the military order. This is the rule in the army, and everyone doesn't need to urge them. Generals like He Fu should understand it.

He Fu took the paper and walked in the room for a few steps, then picked it up and raised it in the air: "This is the traitor of the Jinyiwei's minister who misled the British Duke. At this time, the war was about to come, and I actually wanted me to face the Quneng rebels? It's outrageous!"

Deputy General Xiangcheng Bo Li Long said, "What does military order really mean?"

He Fu handed to Li Long in that direction: "Is there still a fake?"

Li Long walked over here, but He Fu took his hand away, put the order directly into his arms, frowned and said, "At this time, we cannot shake the morale of the army, and even fail. We should still attack according to the rules! After winning this battle, what responsibility do we have? I will take it all with all our strength!"

Everyone was silent. Li Long stood in the middle and withdrew his empty hand, his face suddenly turned a little embarrassed.

Li Long's father was a military general in the former Yan Prince's Mansion and was awarded the title in the "Jingnan Battle"; Li Long was a hereditary Xiangcheng Bo. He was a teenager. He became an earl because his father died and had no merit or prestige in the army. At this time, Li Long wanted to speak but stopped and finally said nothing.

This is a subtle moment. He Fu knew that he was blatantly violating military law, but he still wanted to make a fuss! As the commander of the army, he led his troops outside, and usually has a certain right to live and kill the generals. At least it is easy to wear shoes for others... He Fu was blatant, and most of the people present would not stand up to oppose him.

As expected, Li Long's silence made everyone unwilling to be the first to be the first. Because He Fu had already said that he was responsible for it alone. Anyway, someone interrogated the matter afterwards. Whoever jumped out at this time seemed to have a grudge against the Lord He Fu!

"The central army is also ready to set off." He Fu quickly ordered.

Everyone held their rituals and said, "I will obey the order!"

He Fu walked out of the pedestal and glanced at the reins that the guards bowed and handed over. He first calmly put on the iron helmet before taking the reins. At this time, He Fu turned to Chen Dachui and said, "Li Sheng, go to the south with a few brothers from the central army and then explore the number of rebels."

Chen Dahui clasped his fists and said, "You little one obeys the order!"

He Fu said again: "By the way, it would be best if he could find Zhang Yong (Zhang Sheng)."

Chen Dachui was stunned for a moment, clasped his fists and bowed: "If you take your leave, you will definitely come back as soon as possible to report to the general."

Before receiving the order from Zhang Fu, He Fu did not intend to support Chen Dachui away. It was a temporary decision now. But at the critical moment, He Fu was surrounded by people and had no chance to have a close conversation with Chen Dachui. He could only use this method to hint him.

The so-called Zhang Yong (Zhang Sheng) had already returned to the King of Han at the end of September. He Fu asked Chen Dachui to find Zhang Yong, which was a subtle meaning. I hope Chen Dachui was smart enough to guess the meaning... Don't come back!

When the crowd walked out of the village, the sun had not yet risen and the sky was already dawn. This place was relatively humid, and there was some mist in the air before the sun rose. He Fu looked south, and there was a large area of ​​relatively flat open space, and the surrounding mountains and forests were faintly visible in the distance.

Banners on all sides were like clouds, and countless people and horses were marching southward with the sound of drums. He Fu looked around and saw countless wide-eaves iron helmets shaking in the mist. At first glance, they looked dense.

Within two incense sticks, the Chaoyang rose up on the undulating mountains and forests to the east. At this time, He Fu's army received two more military orders one after another! The content was exactly the same.

The central army issued three military orders in a row, but He Fu dared not take them up again. He had to give the military orders to the deputy generals and civil servants around him to circulate them.

Li Long, the lord of Xiangcheng, took the lead and said: "The British Duke strictly ordered to stop the general from advancing, probably because he felt that the Han King's army in the south was more than tens of thousands?"

He Fu immediately glanced at the young Li Long and felt that this guy was quite young, but he seemed to have learned a lot from his father and had some knowledge. In time, this was a general.

But now He Fu has no intention of paying attention to Li Long. He Fu knew that the military situation could not be concealed for too long; but Qu Neng escaped south within a few days, and the situation was urgent, He Fu took advantage of a loophole... It was about to succeed, but at this critical moment, Zhang Fu didn't know how to see through it!

If you are half a day later, things will go smoothly!

He Fu couldn't give up and said to the generals of the central army: "I said that this must be the treacherous ministers of the Jinyiwei misled the British Duke and told us to watch Qu Neng run away! The soldiers of the Jinyiwei did not fight, but did sneaky things. They knew the battle formation of birds!"

The civil and military officials around him looked at each other, and someone was about to speak.

Just then, a shout suddenly came: "Report! General Zhang of Pinghan is here!"

After a while, a group of handsomely-clad cavalry rushed straight towards this side from the north. The tall-shaped Zhang Fu looked angry and rushed towards He Fu's central army flag first.

"He Fu, you are a traitor!" Zhang Fu said the first thing he said to him was a curse. He then asked, "Where are the two soldiers who defected to He Fu? Zhang He, the two people who were interrogated by the Jinyiwei!"
