On the 25th day of the first lunar month, the snow on the ground had melted, and the air was filled with a little warmth. Yao Xing, Liu Bobo, Tuoba Lie, Tuofa Lie and Juqu Mengxun gathered together again while the spring breeze blows. However, they did not have any joy in their hearts of the future of spring.

The letter from Yao Bin and Tan Daoji detailed the various difficulties in front of him, and did not hesitate to the consequences of retreating to Ji, which made them helpless!

Just recall the troops outside. Wei Feng can also destroy the Huailing Army and come back. It will be even more difficult to deal with Wei Feng in charge of the war. After all, the only one who stays in Qiao is his subordinates, and he can't do as he pleases. However, if he doesn't recall, the reinforcements of the Ming army will arrive at any time, and their advantage in military strength will immediately become a disadvantage. In short, it is a dilemma.

All the five people remained silent. After a long time, Juqu Mengxun said with difficulty: "Since things are no longer possible, it is better to withdraw as soon as possible. After we go back, we will defend Guanzhong with all our might, and the Ming army may not be able to attack.

Tuoba Lie said anxiously: "Retreat? The plan is pretty good, but I'm afraid I can't even cross the water. Besides, the Ming army would not allow you and me to retreat? If you are not careful, the entire army will be wiped out!"

"We are all fucked by Liu Jinu!" The bald lie Tan suddenly cursed Liu Yu hatefully!

Everyone did not answer the word, what's the use of blaming Liu Yu? Although Liu Yu promised tempting conditions, no one forced him to come.

"Tait ~~" A sudden sound of horse hooves came from afar, which made everyone feel tight and they all looked up. A scout was racing towards him!

From afar, the scout loudly called out: "Report to all the lords, there are 40,000 infantry and cavalry in the Ming army heading south along the water, only thirty miles away!"

"What?" The five people's expressions changed drastically. Liu Bobo said anxiously: "We should take advantage of the fact that the Ming reinforcements have not yet established a stable foothold and immediately launch a surprise attack. I'm afraid it will change later!"

Yao Xing waved his hand, and when the scout approached, he asked with a calm face: "Can the Ming army have ships accompany you?"

"Report to Your Majesty!" The scout dismounted and bowed: "The Ming army was next to the shore of the water, and there were more than thirty warships escorting the river."

As soon as these words were said, everyone was completely out of their minds for assault. The Ming army could build a defensive position based on warships and attack, but they could only die in vain.

"Oh~~" Tuoba Lie sighed and said dejectedly: "The Ming army may come to attack tomorrow. We are at a critical moment of life and death. One side is attacked. The other four sides must go to help in time, and also ask Liu Jinu to inform him of some troops. He has some troops in his hand. He can't let him stand by. In addition, he must send envoys to see General Yao and ask him to send some troops to support him quietly, or he can hide it from the Ming King."

Yao Xing looked at Tuoba Lie deeply and said, "I don't want to write a book when I go back. We will all go back to the village to prepare quickly. Especially Master Wei, you must be more careful." After that, he walked back quickly, and the other four people also left one after another.

The five people had just returned, and the Ming army camp also received news that reinforcements were coming. Standing on the arrow tower in the village, you could already see the faint shadow of sails on the water surface.

Cui Hao pondered: "Soldiers are very fast, and if you are too late, you are afraid that Yao Xing and others will prepare. It is better to send troops immediately and transfer to his camp!"

"This..." Xu Daofu hesitated: "General Jiang has just arrived and his soldiers have not yet had to rest. Why would he attack again tomorrow?"

"Hey~~" Wang Zhene waved his hand: "Mr. Cui Dalang said it is reasonable. After all, the Northern Army and the five countries are still in contact with each other, and they may still ask for help from Tan Daoji. Only by accident can one of them be justified. Although General Jiang is just a new arrival, he does not have to fight directly. We will attack the camp and ask General Jiang to provide cover."

As he said that, Wang Zhenye looked at the five camps not far away and pondered: "From the water, it is Tuoba Lie, Liu Bobo, Tuofa Jushitan, Juqu Mengxun and Yao Xing in turn. Each village is three miles apart. Perhaps anyone would think that our army will attack one of Tuofa Jushitan and Juqu Mengxun first. After all, their military strength is the weakest, but they are far away from the water, which means that our army will run more than ten miles and are likely to be intercepted on the way. In addition, Yao Xing is the same, and the distance to attack Yao Xing is even longer."

Cui Hao took it and said, "General Wang said it right. Between Tuoba Lie and Liu Bobo, Tuoba Lie is closest to the water, it is very likely that even he himself thinks that if our army does not attack Tuofa Lietan and Juqu Mengxun, he will definitely attack him. In fact, attacking Tuoba Lie is indeed the best position, but the Tuoba family and our army have no choice but to refuse to surrender.

Therefore, Hao suggested that it might be better to march between Tuoba Lie and Liu Bobo's camp. Tuoba Lie will inevitably make a defensive posture. Liu Bobo dare not send troops easily. The other three companies will attack when our army's troops are deployed. When the army is in progress, our army suddenly turns and quickly intersects and surrounds Liu Bobo's troops to attack. Liu Bobo and the king have no resentment. If he is not supported, he may lead his troops to surrender. The possibility of a death battle is not high. If Liu Bobo can really surrender to the king, it may lead Tuofa Jutan and Juqu Mengxun to surrender one after another. In this way, only Yao Xing and Tuoba Lie, as well as the Northern Prefecture Army, will be left with the alliance. The alliance will collapse!"

"Missing!" Wang Zhenye shouted fiercely: "The good skills of Cui Dalangjun's envoy were intertwined with reality. Liu Bobo probably never expected that the first person to be captured was him. We immediately coordinated with General Jiang and asked him to lead the army to cover him. In addition, Cui Dalangjun was asked to guard the camp, and Zhenye and General Xu led the army to fight!"

Leading the army to fight the most, and guarding the camps has very little credit, but Cui Hao's essence is a civil official. He is a military official. He is a counselor in his army. As long as he comes up with good strategies, he will make great contributions and have no great connection with the specific battle. It is precisely for this reason that Wang Zhene was relieved to ask Cui Hao to guard the camp. If he had changed to other military generals, those who were open-minded could not care about it. If they met a narrow-minded person, they would likely set an opponent for themselves!

You should know that Cui Hao is talented and has a strong reputation and is deeply trusted by Wei Feng. It is inevitable that he will join forces with Xie Gongyi to take charge of the government in the future. What’s more serious is that Cui Hao has a sister about to be promised to Wei Feng, and Wang Zhene is just alone!

If you are not sure, Cui Hao will not be unhappy. Wang Zhene would never dare to make such suggestions, even if he is Wei Feng's designated chief general, he must be concerned.

Sure enough, Cui Hao nodded and said, "Okay, please General Wang and General Xu. Youhao is in charge of the camp. Please feel free to attack. Please don't be greedy for merit. If you defeat Liu Bobo, you will immediately withdraw your troops!"

Wang Zhene and Xu Daofu bowed their hands and walked out quickly.

......

An hour later, the Ming army camp suddenly horns and drums shook the sky. Thirty-five thousand soldiers carried crossbows and chariots, and the chariots quickly penetrated between Liu Bobo and Tuoba Lie. On the other end, Jiang Xuan, forty thousand infantry and cavalry, also left the fleet and came towards Wang Zhen's evil army. The navy arranged a large number of ships facing Tuoba Lie's camp. The three armies worked together to act as if they were encircled and annihilated Tuoba Lie.

Tufa Jietan and Juqu Mengxun both breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of their hearts. What they were afraid of was that the Ming army was picking up persimmons, but the reality was that the Ming army was quite righteous. Immediately afterwards, Yao Xing sent an envoy to send 5,000 troops each and 10,000 troops to rescue the Qin army at any time.

Liu Bobo stood on the arrow tower, his eyes showing a look of shock and suspicion. The Ming army was marching in the middle between him and Tuoba Lie. The intuition of his career as a horse thief over the years reminded him that it seemed something was inappropriate!

Liu Bobo gritted his teeth and called out, "Let the brothers guard the camps firmly, focus on defense, and then make a decision after seeing the movements of the Qingming Army."

"As for your order!" He hurried away.

"Damn it! It's really for me!" Next door to Liu Bobo, Tuoba Lie cursed hatefully and ordered loudly: "The Ming army and the Wei people are deadly enemies. Since they are here to attack me, they will fight to the death. Do you have the will to die?"

"Yes!" The camp was full of momentum, and everyone's face showed resentment. They also understood that if they fought against the Ming army, they would die if they were defeated, and there was no second way to go.

In an instant, the village was fully mobilized, similar to Liu Bobo. In addition to retaining some of the cavalry, the horses were concentrated in the center of the village, the bow and arrow formation, the shield formation, and the chariot formation were arranged layer by layer in the village, which was completely a defensive formation.

On the head of Qiao's city, Xie Hui frowned and guessed: "General, Hui sees that the Ming army may not be going to attack Tuoba Lie, but it is very likely that he is heading for Liu Bobo."

Liu Muzhi took it and nodded and said, "Looking at the Ming army's march, he can do both, but Tuoba Lie's target is too obvious. Attacking Liu Bobo may have unexpected results. Moreover, the Ming army swam on both sides, which can force both sides to adopt defensive formations and slow down the rescue of the other side. This is probably due to Cui Hao's clever plan from Qinghe."

Shen Linzi followed and said, "General, whether the Ming army attacked the Xia people or the Wei people, should we go out of the city to support it?"

Liu Yu hesitated for a moment and shook his head: "My sixty thousand army was trapped by the Ming King on the shore of the water, but there were actually only 30,000 defenders in the city. If he could not seize the opportunity of killing with one blow, sending his army out of the city would be like a drop in the bucket. Let's see the situation first. In fact, together with the five-nation coalition forces, our troops in Qiao also had 100,000, which was equal to the Ming army. It was just too dispersed that the Ming army would find opportunities to defeat them."

"Oh~~" Liu Yu sighed, looking helpless, knowing that the crux of the problem is one thing, and solving the problem is another. If you want to be honest, at least the Beifu Army will not be able to do it. He will never allow the five-nation coalition forces to enter the city. The five sides have plots.

Everyone sighed with Liu Yu. There was nothing more to do in the world than this, and then they looked down at the city.

Sure enough, without Xie Hui's guess, when the Ming army running on both sides was about to penetrate between Liu Bobo and Tuoba Lie, Jiang Xuan's troops suddenly split into more than 30 small formations, each formation was equipped with chariots, with all the crossbows and cannons, with about 1,000 troops, three-quarters of which were quickly interspersed between Liu Bobo and Juqu Mengxun, and every hundred steps apart, they built positions of more than 1,000 people in a large cart, and the speed was so fast that it was shocking.
