Wei Wei, Xunqi, lived in a courtyard and refused to surrender. Wang Meng sent troops to attack. He led more than 20 trusted men to fight to the death and kill several people. Wang Meng had no choice but to order the Yulin Army to shoot arrows at once and shoot all twenty people.

Wang Meng shook his head and sighed: "This person is a powerful general, and he is so loyal. It is really admirable... The general who died in battle, don't behead him, leave a whole body for him!"

After destroying the Qingqi tribe, Wang Meng looked at the flat river in front of him and the continuous Mangshan in the distance, and couldn't help but mutter to himself: Where did Liu Xiu go? Where is the fifth reunion now?

Speaking of which, Liu Xiu actually has several choices.

One is to choose to go back directly.

The nearest road back to Hebei is to go directly north from Luoyang, cross the river near Mengjin Ferry, and return to the territory of Henei on the north bank of the Great River. But there is a problem here, that is, Mengjin Ferry is stationed with 30,000 troops from General Fangdan and General Pingcang Cui Xiu. Liu Xiu led his army to cross the river from then on, and he is likely to be blocked by Fangdan and Cui Xiu. With the newly defeated soldiers he led, he encountered the Xin'an elite soldiers and the Yulin Army, and his chances of victory were not high.

The second option is to drill into Mang Mountain and find a way out from Mang Mountain for more than a hundred miles, so that you can successfully reach the banks of the river, cross the frozen river surface, and return to Hanoi County. The problem with this road is that the road is narrow in the mountains and the army is not easy to pass. If a team of tens of thousands of people enters the mountain, it will not be easy to hide its traces, but will be easily caught up.

The third option is to simply go east to Yancheng and join forces with Feng Yi and Wang Liang. However, this possibility is the least, because Feng Yi and Wang Liang are trapped in Yancheng and the situation is not optimistic.

Wang Meng was unsure of his mind. After thinking about it, he was all cavalry and could not get into the mountains to chase infantry. There was Liu Mao's army in Yanshi, so it was difficult for the enemy to escape, so he didn't need to add icing on the cake.

It would be better to simply continue to go north to Mangshan Pass and arrive in Mengjin. As for whether you can catch up with Liu Xiu, it will be up to fate!

Wang Meng ordered the army to set off, and the sound of horse hooves rumbled, shaking the earth trembled, and the six thousand iron cavalry rushed north in a mighty manner.

The Yulin cavalry all have one person and two horses. The empty horses run with the army. When the horses they ride are tired, they can transfer to the air horses at any time. It seems that riding in turns can maintain the speed of the march.

In winter, the ground is hard and there is residual ice and snow. When the sun is sunny during the day, some water will be melted on the ice, and it will be very slippery. No one dares to let horses run quickly on this road, otherwise it will easily slip. They can only carefully tie the reins and trot forward.

Fortunately, the Yulin cavalry has been equipped with horseshoes, with an anti-slip design underneath, which enhances the grip of the horseshoes and makes the horses walk more steadily, so the march will not be too slow.

By the time the sun sets, the army has arrived to close the warehouse, and it is only a few dozen miles away from Mengjin.

At this time, Wang Meng was no longer anxious and dared not chase forward in touching the dark.

The soldiers set out from Luoyang early in the morning and fought for half a day. They were very tired. On such a cold winter night, they were moving on the dark and slippery road, which was very dangerous to horses and people.

There were originally garrison troops in Pingteng. Liu Xiu attacked this place when he went to Luoyang. The garrison troops fled and the Hebei troops arrived. When Liu Xiu retreated, the Hebei garrison troops also retreated. Now this empty military camp is still left. Although it is messy and dilapidated, it can still block the cold wind for them.

Wang Meng ordered to close the warehouse and rest overnight. The soldiers caught fire in the camp, ate some hot food, maintain their strength, and resist the invasion of the cold.

The soldiers slept in one place and slept all night long. Of course, the comfort was much worse than at home. Fortunately, they were all young men in their twenties, with strong bodies, firepower, not afraid of the cold, and did not feel that it was difficult to get over it. When it dawned, they all became energetic again.

The next morning we set off until noon, the sun was hanging in the air and the river was looking at them, and they were only more than twenty miles away from Mengjin Ferry.

Wang Meng sent people to Mengjindu to contact General Fangdan, Puyang and General Pingkang Cui Xiu. A total of three people were gone, only one of them came back in a hurry, with an arrow inserted on his shoulder. He told Wang Meng about an amazing news: Mengjindu was lost.

The three of them were attacked, and the two died. Fortunately, he soon fled back.

At this time, the enemy was guarding the enemy army. I don’t know who led the army, but I don’t know the specific number, but it seems that there are at least tens of thousands of people.

Mengjin Ferry is the gateway between Luoyang and Hanoi, and is an important ferry along the river. Although the river water is frozen now and you can march directly, this ferry seems useless, once the river thaws, Mengjin Ferry is a key place for military strands to compete.

Whether from Luoyang to Hanoi or from Hanoi to Luoyang, the army must pass through Mengjin Ferry. There are many small ferry crossings along the Yellow River, but none of them can carry the transportation of the army.

Wang Meng ordered the cavalry to line up and prepare to face the enemy. In the blink of an eye, he came to the riverside and looked over from afar. He saw that the snow on the river had disappeared, and only the ice surface was shining in the sun.

The ferry by the river is Mengjin Ferry, which is ready for battle and is under strict garrison.

Mengjin Ferry has always been heavily guarded, and the fortifications at the ferry are very strong. When Fangdan and Cui Xiu were guarding, the enemy troops on the other side sent large troops to attack several times, and Mengjin Ferry is as stable as a rock.

So where are they going now? If they retreat, they can even send back the news. Moreover, Wang Meng did not encounter a defeated soldier from Mengjindu along the way.

Wang Meng looked at the ferry, not knowing whether to attack. If he attacked the ferry, facing the strong fortifications, the impact of the cavalry could not be exerted. With less attacks, there would be no chance of winning.

While hesitating, a group of people suddenly ran out of the east. When they looked at their outfits from afar, they knew that they were also Yulin cavalry. When they got closer, they saw that the young general in the lead had extraordinary physical appearance and a heroic posture. They were the fifth reunion of the infantry captain.

Wu Lun rode his horse over and said to Wang Meng: "General Zhonglang, you are here just in time. The thief Liu Xiu is at the Mengjin Ferry!"

It turned out that the fifth reincarnation led two thousand elite cavalry, chasing Liu Xiu north all the way, following him closely, biting very tightly. On the way, he wanted to break through the enemy's formation several times, but he gave up because there were too few soldiers and he was not sure of winning.

When it was dark, they each set up camp, but Liu Xiu was gone in the camp. He led thousands of troops to stay in the local area to resist the enemy, but Liu Xiu continued to go north with great speed.

Wu Lun led two thousand light cavalry to step by step, and did not stop, but continued to chase northward. Liu Xiu collected the troops stationed all the way, walked to Mengjin Ferry, and led his army to capture the ferry in one fell swoop.

After hearing the words of the fifth reun, Wang Meng asked anxiously: "What about General Puyang and General Pingcang?"
