The initial battle of Beigong was unfavorable, which led to a sharp drop in morale under his command. In desperation, he had to order the entire army to retreat 30 miles before setting up camp, and then plot against Loufan County.

In the Beigong Battle Camp.

"Little General, this Loufan is no longer in the area, so I must have fled to the deep mountains."

At this time, a thousand-man commander was reporting the news he received to Beigong Zhan.

"Damn it, Yang Fan is so cunning. Our army travels hundreds of miles a day, and it only takes two days to set off from Shuofang. Could it be that he is a god?"

Beigong Zhan punched the table in front of him and said angrily.

"Little General, this morning, a whistle cavalry of our army suddenly encountered more than ten cavalry and Han cavalry. After fighting, they lost to the enemy and lost more than forty people. Could it be that Yang Fan judged from here that our army would come? He took the lead in hiding the people in the mountains?"

The commander suddenly thought of something and hurriedly said to Beigong Zhan.

"There is such a thing? It seems that our whistle cavalry encountered Yang Fan's cavalry in the morning. It's hateful that our army is not good at attacking the toughest, and if Yang Fan seizes the city and guards, wouldn't we have no choice but to do anything to him?"

Beigong Zhan was extremely bored, so he picked up a jar of wine and then tilted his head to drink it.

"Did the young general forget the advantages of our army?"

The commander of the thousand-man immediately smiled and said with a sarcastic test.

"Yes, our army is all elite cavalry. After going around Loufan, we robbed the mainland of Bingzhou. It would be fine if Yang Fan did not leave the city. If he dared to leave the city, I would definitely tell him that he would never return."

After being guided by the commander of the thousand-man, Beigong suddenly realized it and then burst into laughter.

On the other side, in Loufan City, Guan Yu had just arrived with two thousand cavalry and three thousand infantrymen, and with him was a letter from Xi Zhong.

"Everyone, Zhicai's letter has already stated that I don't know what we should do?"

Yang Fan summoned everyone to discuss the matter late at night, and then asked Xi Zhong's letter to circulate it. It turned out that what Xi Zhong said in his heart was the idea that the commander of the thousand-man gave to Beigong Zhan.

"Sir, what the Chief of the Opera's letter is also what Zhou is worried about."

Hao Zhou said worriedly after reading the letter in his hand.

"Lord, if this Beigong Zhan bypasses Lou Fan, we really have no way to deal with him."

The cavalry is only ten thousand, but it cannot be stopped. In this flat Bingzhou, where the horse is over ten thousand, it is an invincible existence. Guan Yu, who is also the commander of the cavalry, knows this well and says anxiously.

"Although he can gallop at will in Bingzhou, all things are mutually resilient, and there is a way to deal with him."

Yang Fan was recalling the military tactics and battle formations taught by Lu Zhi. After thinking for a while, he could not find the way to break the enemy.

"At present, we can only send people to Jinyang and invite governor Zhang Yi to send troops to fight against the thieves."

Then Yang Fan thought of the three thousand Bingzhou wolf cavalry in Jinyang City and said to Guan Yu.

"That's all."

Guan Yu was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled bitterly.

"In fact, we have another way."

At this time, Hao Zhou suddenly said softly.

"What method? Kong Yi would like to tell me frankly."

When Yang Fan heard this, he was immediately excited and asked quickly.

"What the Qiang and Hu cavalry rely on is only the war horses under their crotch. If their war horses cannot fight, wouldn't they become toothless tigers?"

Hao Zhou showed confidence and talked freely.

"What can make its war horse lose its combat capability?"

Hao Zhou's words immediately attracted Yang Fan's attention and asked urgently.

"There is something in the wild in Bingzhou, called Dog Tongue. Its flowers bloom several petals, like lotus seats, orange-yellow, slightly bitter, and slightly poisonous. If horses, cattle and sheep are used too much, it will cause weakness in the limbs, lose weight, blindness and even death."

Hao Zhou seemed to have noticed it in his heart, and he smiled slightly and said.

"There are such strange things in my Bingzhou area? Where did Kong Yi learn about it?"

Yang Fan was stunned when he heard this, and then said in surprise.

"Zhou suffered from a strange disease when he was young and had poor urinary tract. Fortunately, the Ma Doctor Yunzhong used a wonderful hand and was cured. The thing that Duke Ma used was this dog tongue grass, so Zhou had some research on this thing. By chance, he learned that this thing is extremely harmful to cattle, sheep and horses."

Speaking of this, Hao Zhou immediately said with a sigh.

"Oh? Is this thing hard to find?"

After hearing Hao Zhou's words, an idea suddenly arose in Yang Fan's heart, and he asked quickly.

"This dog tongue grass is very easy to survive. There are countless people in my Bingzhou area. However, the old farmers who have livestock at home also know the effect of this thing. I believe that the Qiang and Hu people will raise horses all year round and will not be deceived and let their mounts be eaten by accident."

At this time, Hao Zhou suddenly thought of something and said with a wry smile.

"What's the problem? Fan also has concerns in his heart."

Yang Fan smiled slightly, tapped his fingers gently on the desk in front of him and said with a smile.

"Does the lord have a plan to defeat the enemy?"

Guan Yu knew his meaning well and quickly asked.

"Our army can collect this dog tongue grass, dry it, grind it into powder, mix it into the forage, select a team of soldiers to escort it, and let the Qiang and Hu people snatch it away."

Since ancient times, soldiers have never been tired of deceitful deception. Yang Fan's plan is extremely vicious. If he succeeds, he will use the life and death of more than 10,000 high-quality war horses to accompany him.

"That's more than 10,000 best war horses! This..."

After hearing this, Guan Yu felt unbearable and said in embarrassment.

"Since ancient times, those who have accomplished great things are not limited to minor matters. If our army cannot annihilate this group of thieves as soon as possible, then how many people in Bingzhou will be troubled by it? Who is more important, how could Yun Chang not know?"

It’s not that Yang Fan doesn’t feel sorry for those war horses, but that he is busy with autumn harvest at this time in Yanmen County. If this group of cavalry invades, the losses will be more than ten thousand war horses. Therefore, Yang Fan can only say this.

"Yu knows what the lord is worried about."

After hearing this, Guan Yu's face suddenly turned right and then responded.

"Since this thing comes from Kong Yi's mouth, how about the sails that collect dog tongue grass? "

Since he made up his mind, Yang Fan immediately ordered Haozhou.

"I wonder if there are thousands of kilograms of dried dog tongue grass in Zhou's family?"

Hao Zhou suddenly thought of the collection at home and quickly spoke.

"Enough, enough."

Unexpectedly, Hao Zhou actually collected this dog tongue grass. Yang Fan then spared some effort and said with a smile.

"Then the lord sent someone to go back with Zhou Yun to get him."

Hao Zhou then stood up and clasped his fists at Yang Fan.

"Well, Yun Chang, you sent someone to follow Kong Yi back, take the dog tongue grass, and then grind it into powder."

Seeing Hao Zhou so capable, Yang Fan was even more happy and immediately ordered Guan Yu.

"promise!"

Guan Yu immediately took the order and left.

"Why, you will take people to the city to collect fodder, carts and other items from door to door. Remember not to force rob, you need to buy it with money. If the money is not enough, you need to write an IOU and then deliver it to your door after this battle."

After Guan Yu and Hao Zhou left, Yang Fan said to Dian Wei again.

"Oh, I wonder how much the lord needs?"

Dian Wei then clasped his fists and responded.

"Of course the more, the better!"

Yang Fan then stood up and chuckled.

After being busy all night, Dian Wei collected hundreds of trucks of food and grass. In order to make the play more realistic, Yang Fan paid out of his own pocket and added more than 20 trucks of finely ground white flour and wine and broiler chickens and ducks. In fact, Yang Fan spent some money on those twenty trucks of flour, wine and broiler chickens and ducks, and the rest were provided free of charge by Lou Fu people. Last night, Dian Wei Yanming said this was for the use of defeating the enemy. The people generously donated money and voluntarily donated the grass and vehicles from their homes. It can be seen that the Qiang and Hu have been invasive invading the border for many years, causing indelible pain to the people of the Han area, so this rare scene of response.

The next day, the gate of Loufan City suddenly opened. Yang Fan's two thousand guards and Guan Yu's five thousand Xunjie Battalion soldiers carried the batch of food and grass slowly left to the south. How could this movement escape the eyes of the Qiang Hu and Squirt Cavalry? A few quarters of an hour later, the matter was learned by the Beigong Zhan, dozens of miles away.

"Hahaha... Yang Fan really committed suicide."

Beigong Zhan, who suddenly heard the good news, was stunned at first, and then burst into laughter.

"Send the order, and a quarter of an hour later, the entire army will leave the camp, bypass Loufan, and follow the general to annihilate the second-rank general of the Han Dynasty."

Beigong Zhan was quite contemptuous of Yang Fan in his words.

A moment later, more than ten thousand Qiang and Hu cavalrymen left the camp and whistled towards the Han area.

On the Loufan city wall, Hao Zhou looked at the group of Qiang and Hu cavalry around the city wall and headed south, and immediately smiled inexplicably.

"It's not unreasonable that Yang Bowen can make such a name in just a few months!"

Hao Zhou stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the Qiang and Hu cavalry that were leaving, and began to worship Yang Fan. I expected that last night, everyone could come up with a plan to defeat the enemy in just a few words. He was a person who was active in his mind, but these outstanding people were just the prefect of the county. Thinking of this, Hao Zhou couldn't help but feel a little disappointed with the court. He still remembered what Yang Fan patted his shoulder before leaving this morning, saying, "Kong Yi, if you win this battle, you should be the first contribution. After that, the position of Yanmen County Magistrate is empty, and I hope you don't dislike it."
