19, the sound of the east and the west spread to the west

After the plan was decided, each sent troops.

After Yan Xing's military order was conveyed, Cao Yuan and Wei Xuan soon brought a bell of troops to join Yan Xing, Dian Wei's other bell of troops and the Xiliang cavalry of Zhai Hao's troops to the county brigade camp on the east bank of the Fen River.

In less than half a day, Cao Yuan had already approached his destination with his troops.

Cao Yuan sent scouts to the near barracks of Hedong County soldiers to explore military information, and then ordered the troops to rest in the forest on the side of the road. He and Wei Xuan, Yan Xing, Dian Wei and others gathered in a clearing in the forest to discuss how to seize the military power of Fan Gui and Zhang Lang next, and waited for the information about the soldiers of Hedong County that the scouts reported.

After discussing for a while, before everyone finished their conversation, the scout had already returned.

The sound of horse hooves came to an abrupt end outside the forest. With a horse's neigh, a strong man held a captive with his hands and feet tied and his mouth blocked, jumped off the horse.

Cao Yuan in the forest raised her head and said slowly.

"Sima Zhai is back and even caught the slaughter."

Then, Zhai Hao, wearing leather armor and holding a ring knife, walked in with great strides. After seeing Cao Yuan and others, he sneered, threw the prisoners over and said casually:

"Fan Gui, Zhang Lang, the gang of officials, said verbally to guard against the Baibo thieves crossing the river, but the defense of the camp gate in the east was even stricter than that in the west. However, I happened to be hit by a small woodcutter and caught him!"

The east gate faces the direction of Jiangyi behind, and the west gate faces the direction of Baibo in Linfen.

"It's a blessing to Sima Zhai!"

Cao Yuan smiled and sent the soldiers to add another horse stool, and kindly invited Zhai Hao to sit down, and then asked Wei Xuan to capture the county soldier and question him.

Looking at Zhai Hao who had just gotten off the horse and was sweating profusely, Yan Xing began to say:

"Zhai Sima, I have discussed it with you just now. In addition, what you said just now, it can be concluded that the soldiers of Hedong County have been prepared for a long time. We went directly to the camp from Ximen, but I was afraid that Fan and Zhang would find out in advance. After resisting, they used the fortifications of the camp gate to block it. I was afraid that the war would start and hurt more people."

"Therefore, we decided to attack the west, and use the brigades to make a big fuss, pretend to come from the west, and send other strange soldiers to break into the camp from the east, loudly proclaim military orders and proclamations, disrupting the morale of the army in the camp. Then, the inside and the outside should work together to seize the army camp of the Hedong County soldiers."

Zhai Hao knew that Cao Yuan was a military officer who was valued by Yan Xing, so he would not go against him for no reason. He could not wait to deal with Fan Gui, Zhang Lang and others. After hearing Cao Yuan and others' arrangements, he clasped his fists without saying a word:

"Jun Cao is the person who is personally in charge of the army in charge of the army by the lieutenant. Of course, we have to follow Cao's decisions in this matter. All our troops and horses will follow orders."

"Then we have to rely on Sima!"

Cao Yuan and Yan Xing's troops were mostly infantry. If they wanted to attack the east and attack the west and break into the camp, they had to call on the Western Liang cavalry of Zhai Hao's troops. Zhai Hao was a newly recruited Yan Xing and his position in the army was higher than Cao Yuan. Therefore, although Cao Yuan was in charge of this matter, he was kind all the way and had been talking to Zhai Hao in a deliberate tone.

Now that he heard Zhai Hao obeying orders, Cao Yuan was naturally happy, and Wei Xuan also questioned some information.

The captured soldiers were soldiers in Fan Guiying Camp. According to him, the soldiers of the middle and lower ranks of Hedong were not aware of Yan Xing's military order to recall the troops and horses. The instructions they received were always stationed along the Fen River coast. However, in the camp that had been stationed in a stable manner recently, there were some movements. In addition to shrinking its troops and turning the key points of defense towards Jiangyi, some soldiers and horses were also sent out to the camp at night.

After listening to the information that Wei Xuan asked, Cao Yuan looked around everyone and said solemnly:

"Since we have already obtained the general situation in the camp, we should act as soon as possible, so as not to delay it. If the scouts of the Hedong County soldiers discovered our army's division deployment, it would take more effort."

"Order! Choose from the troops of Sima Zhai to select thirty elite cavalrymen, hide their tracks, bypass the post of the west gate, hold a manifesto, break into the camp from the east gate of the barracks, and announce the order to withdraw troops to the county soldiers to disrupt their morale. Using this small soldier as a guide, he drove directly into the central army, captured Fan and Zhang to prevent him from taking the opportunity to cause chaos. The three armies seized the commander, and the brave must not do it. Dian Jun, this matter will be relied on you!"

Dian Wei nodded, his face was normal, and his voice was promised.

"Yan Jun and Hongqi led their troops to the east gate with me to chaotic Hedong County's soldiers. If something happens, they will scramble to attack the soldiers of the army and camp with all their might."

"promise!"

Wei Xuan and Yan Xing also spoke in unison and agreed with a loud voice.

"As for Sima Zhai, you can lead his troops to be surprise soldiers, act in time, and support the other two groups of people!"

"promise!"

Zhai Hao looked at Dian Wei, nodded, and agreed loudly.

"Okay, you guys will act according to your order!"

Sima military account in Hedong County barracks

Although it was about noon, Fan Gui, who dispatched troops last night, had not yet got up. He was originally a child of the Fan clan. Although Baibo thieves later rose up and Hedong recruited troops. Fan Gui responded to the orders of the clan and led his clan members to join the army. After several promotions, he achieved the position of Sima in the army. However, Fan Gui was very despised in the army, but he was very hard-working in the army, but he was unable to do it in the matter of diligent military management.

However, this kind of laziness seems to be fine in Fan Gui's opinion. He thinks he is not good at generals, but he can generals. The ordinary things about governing the army are completed by the military officers under the tent, and Zhang Lang is also charged. He just needs to plan and be able to sleep in the tent and rest assured.

The military officials in the tent knew his habits. If Fan Gui got up late, he would not dare to come and disturb him. But today it was abnormal. Fan Yong, who was still sleeping peacefully, was disturbed by the noise outside the camp.

Fan Gui, who had just been woken up, was sleepy, yawning, and a little angry, and called out to the outside of the tent.

There are laws in the army, and without military orders, you must not whistle and whistle at the gate of the central army without authorization.

Who dares to test the law with his own eyes?

Hearing Fan Gui's shouts in the tent, the soldiers guarding outside the tent immediately walked in quickly. However, facing Fan Gui's inquiry, their personal soldiers outside the tent only heard noisy shouts, but could not hear the specific content clearly. They only heard words such as "Capital Captain" and "withdrawal".

"Send someone to check, what happened?"

Fan Gui was furious and immediately sent someone to check it out, but before the sent people had gone far, military officials had already arrived at the military tent and reported to him.

"Sima, a large number of soldiers came from the east. Judging from the banner, it was the banner of the Xiliang soldiers. Zhang Sima had already blocked them from the east gate and sent his subordinates to inform Sima. Please make a decision as soon as possible!"

Hearing the military officer's report, Fan Gui frowned suddenly. The Xiliang soldiers suddenly came, and naturally they had a bad intention. He hurriedly said:

"Let Zhang Sima block them and not let them enter the camp. I will come quickly!"

After saying that, Fan Gui immediately sent the military officer to report, but when the military officer didn't go far, another military officer asked for a visit to the account.

"Sima, there were cavalry clashes with the camp gate in the west, claiming that he was a storm and the captain of the army came and ordered the entire army to retreat."

"No, the lieutenant has an order, why don't I know why you didn't stop someone?"

Fan Gui's face changed drastically when he heard bad news, and then he directly questioned the military officer.

Hearing Fan Gui's questioning, the military officer was helpless and could only say:

"This group of men and horses suddenly appeared at the camp gate, and their subordinates stopped them at that time, but their armor and flags were all the same as Western Liang soldiers. The number was not large and they were not disguised. The archers did not dare to shoot arrows. Moreover, there was a big man who was very fierce and he picked up two places in the camp gate to resist horses. They loudly declared the manifesto, and the morale of the army in the camp was in chaos, and their subordinates did not know the authenticity, so they dared not take action--"

"Then send archers immediately and shoot them directly!"

Fan Gui was impatient after listening to the helpless explanation of the military officers, so he directly ordered the archers to shoot and kill them.

"But Sima, I don't think those who come to ride are fake-"

"Shut up, these unknown cavalry came from the west, and they must have been sent by the Baibo thieves to disrupt the morale of the soldiers in the camp. How could they allow them to continue to rush on their own? I will send out an order soon!"

Seeing Fan Gui's angry look, the military officer did not dare to explain anything, so he had to turn around and send a tent to pass the order.

When Fan Gui saw the military officers leaving, he knew that this time the Xiliang soldiers were trying to attack him and wanted to attack him and the Hedong County soldiers. He didn't dare to delay, so he immediately stood up and didn't care about washing. He asked his personal guards to help him wear armor. But he had just finished his clothes and armor, and there was another chaotic sound of people and horses outside the tent.

A loud voice exploded like thunder.

"The manifesto is here. The captain has ordered the Baibo bandits who have retreated and fled to Linfen. Your troops immediately set off the camp and return to Jiangyi without delay!"

Hearing this voice, Fan Gui's face became ashen as lighter. He drew his sword and said viciously:

"I actually let the thieves rush to the gate. The soldiers guarding the gate should be killed. Come and go out with me and kill these thieves together!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of fighting outside the tent, and Fan Gui rushed out with the personal guards in the tent.

I saw that there were chaotic people outside the tent, and several people came to ride in his gate to clash back and forth. One of the great men with a magnificent figure and beard like a halberd was invincible. He rode his horse back and forth, and the mount under his crotch hit and kicked a lot of soldiers who stopped him.

"Damn it, what are you still worried about? These are all white wave thieves, and I have killed them!"

Hearing Fan Gui's ruthless orders, the suspicious soldiers outside the tent finally had a backbone, and were all at risk, and were about to kill these cavalrymen who claimed to have been sent.

"He is Fan Sima!"

After seeing the person who ordered clearly, the captured pawn suddenly shouted to Dian Wei. Dian Wei, who got the target, immediately opened his eyes wide and stared at Fan Gui. He threw the pawn down, and his horse was in tune with each other and rushed towards Fan Gui.

"Protect Sima!"

Fan Gui's personal soldiers shouted loudly, wanting to protect Fan Gui in the center, but Dian Wei showed his might and had almost no enemy for a round. He quickly rushed up. Although the horse's chest was quickly hit by a spear, Dian Wei was even more fierce after being dismissed. After he landed in the crowd, he held two iron halberds and continued to slash, and fought out a bloody path. The cavalry behind him also followed. He bumped into or slashed Fan Gui's personal soldiers with a charge, and then worked together to catch Fan Gui, who was trying to turn around and escape into the tent when he saw that the situation was not good.

Now, Dian Wei and other cavalry generals Fan Gui were captured, but they were surrounded by the Hedong County soldiers in the camp. Outside the barracks, Cao Yuan and Zhai Hao's Buqi threatened the Hedong County soldiers.

Dian Wei forced Fan Gui to order the troops to retreat, but Fan Gui knew that Dian Wei was under the siege and did not dare to act rashly on himself. Therefore, he was confident and threatened Dian Wei to let him go and there was still a way out.

The two of them confronted each other immediately. Dian Wei was waiting for the troops outside the camp to rush into the camp and take him to help him. Fan Gui was betting on the other cavalry inside the camp and was killed. Zhang Lang blocked the troops outside the camp, causing all the plans of these Western Liang soldiers to fail.

Just one after another, the situation was stalemate at this moment.

In the end, Zhang Lang, who broke the deadlock, led his troops to block Cao Yuan and others.

Zhai Hao led the Xiliang cavalry to go around the back and attack from the Ximen, but he had a large number of people and was discovered in the distance. After Dian Wei and others came to cavalry, the gatekeepers questioned by Fan Gui no longer dared to be suspicious. They directly closed the camp gate, fired bows and arrows to block Zhai Hao's cavalry's cavalry's cavalry.

According to Yan Xing and Cao Yuan's intention, Zhai Hao had no intention of attacking the Hedong County soldiers, which triggered the war, so he did not enter the camp for a short time, but there were troops and horses in both directions, which also gave the Hedong County soldiers a huge deterrence.

When he heard that not only a small number of cavalrymen claimed to have come to the camp in Ximen, but also Zhai Hao's banner appeared one after another, Zhang Lang, who was standing on the east gate tower, was immediately anxious. At this time, he knew that something was wrong, but there were so many Buqi from Jiangyi coming in front of him. If he left at this time, he would not be able to calm the people here, let the other party aim at the opportunity, and then proclaim the manifesto loudly, or forcefully attacked, it would be troublesome.

Outside the barracks, when they saw a small-scale riot in the Hedong County soldiers guarding the camp gate, the movement of the troops in the camp caused quite a lot of noise. Cao Yuan knew that Dian Wei had successfully broken into the camp. He knew that the Hedong County soldiers were in chaos at the moment, and they had to take this opportunity to break through the camp, enter the camp, and reach the overall situation. Otherwise, they might miss the opportunity and pay the lives of Dian Wei and other warriors in vain.

Cao Yuan gave Yan Xing a wink, Yan Xing nodded, and he slapped out in understanding, came to the ground with an arrow at the camp gate, and shouted loudly to Zhang Lang on the gate tower:

"Zhang Sima, when do you want to stop me? We have sent troops from Ximen to break into the camp and declared the military order of the lieutenant. At this time, your camp is in chaos. Sima's cavalry is probably already here. If you are trapped in the camp, can you still want to resist the troops sent by the court?"

"If you lead troops to withdraw your troops at this time, you can still make atonement for your sins, but if you continue to resist stubbornly, it will be the end of the loss of your army and killing your generals."

When Yan Xing called out here, Cao Yuan also asked his soldiers to continue to shout.

"The captain has an order, and the Baibo thief has retreated and fled to Linfen. Your troops immediately set off the camp and return to Jiangyi without delay. If there is any resistance, it will be a violation of the military order. Not only will it be difficult for them to protect themselves, but it will also cause harm to the soldiers' families!"

The shouts outside the city were so loud that many Hedong County soldiers raising their hands to the camp gate trusted Zhang Lang, but at this time they began to look at Zhang Lang sideways. Zhang Lang felt very stressed for a moment and didn't know what to do. Finally, after hearing that Fan Gui was captured by the cavalry who broke into the camp, he breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't know whether he relaxed his tense mind or vented his courage to fight.
