Sitting on the horse, looking back at Xiong Kuohai behind him, Xu Shiye felt a little amused and laughed: He was originally short of horses because of his current reserved money, and he would dream of thinking about how to get a few more war horses. But when he looked back at Xiong Kuohai behind him, he actually occupied two fat and strong war horses alone? One was naturally sitting on the body of Xiong Kuohai. On the other, there were two huge and heavy weapons carrying Xiong Kuohai: the extra-large three-pointed two-edged sword and the one-legged bronze man.

In summary, the weight of the two selected horses carrying Xiong Kuohai himself and his huge and heavy weapons is greater than that of other horses even if they are separated. Xiong Kuohai has a weight of more than 200, nearly 300 kilograms; and his two weapons are both three-pointed two-edged swords weighing 120 kilograms and one-legged bronze man combined with two-legged bronze man. This weight of about 200 kilograms is much heavier than that of ordinary iron cavalry...

After seeing off Yang Ji, who went north to hire talents, Xu Shiye's long-planned campaign to attack Changping County began to officially start a few days later.

According to the tactics of Xu Shiye and Liu Heita, Ling Jing and others to discuss the attacks of Changping County, the strategy of rebelling from the scene and attacking them was finally determined: this time, Xu Shiye only led 500 cavalry with Ling Jing and Xiong Kuohai, while Liu Heita stayed to be responsible for stationing Ji County, continued to rest and train soldiers. Qiu Xiaogang, who had not healed, would also take over the establishment of the Mo Dao Army while performing his original position as a county lieutenant.

Before leaving, Xu Shiye also entrusted the prefect Jun Fangxing, county magistrate Zhang Zhiang and others to complete the armor of the Modao Army as soon as possible, and handed over the strong soldiers selected by Qiu Xiaogang to enter the drill stage as soon as possible.

The heavy armor and Modao Army of the Modao Army actually appeared in the Southern and Northern Dynasties. It was only because of the high cost and the high requirements for the ability and physical strength of the military soldiers, and the difficulty in crafting them, so it was not popularized in the military. However, the specifications, styles, sizes of the heavy armor and Modao have already been formed. Therefore, Xu Shiye did not need to take out sketches and examples based on memory.

Changping, which had once occurred between Qin and Zhao during the Eastern Zhou Dynasty and the Warring States Period, "Bai Qi killed 400,000 Zhao troops". In fact, it was originally a county seat, but it was only listed as a county in the late Northern Wei Dynasty during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, and led the two counties of Gaoping and Xuan clans.

Similarly, Changping, which has a long history, is not only a sad past in which Bai Qi killed 400,000 Zhao troops, which had a tragic tragedy, but also a great Sima of the Han Dynasty during the rebellion against Hu Emperor Wu of Han. General Wei Qing's "Hao Kingdom" was granted a fief. The so-called Wei family in Hedong is actually the descendant of Wei Qing whose family belonged to Changping (Cai Wenji's first married husband's family). From this, it can be seen that Changping was in Jin and in the Han Dynasty, it was always under the rule of Hedong County.

Wei Qing, who was famous for the Han Empire and even the entire Han nation, was once appointed as the "Changping Hou" by Emperor Wu of Han, with a fief of 2,200 households, and was an absolutely super "Farse Marquis of Wanhu". This was only a few hundred fiefs compared to the ordinary Chehou in the Han Dynasty, and the Guannei Marquis had no fiefs, which was a world of difference. This also shows Wei Qing's military merits.

Ban Gu once praised Wei Qing and Huo Qubing like this: Changping Huan Huan, the general's first; attacking Huan Yun, restore our border; fighting Qi Qi to fight for seven battles, rushing to leisure; encircling the Shanyu, climbing Tianyan in the north. The champion of the cavalry, and the bravery of the cavalry; driving for six times, electric shocks and thunder; drinking Ma Hanhai, sealing the wolf's residence in the mountains; placing the river in the west, and praying for the county. In Ban Gu's poem, the first half of praise is Wei Qing's military achievements, and the second half is Huo Qubing's military achievements.

In the tenth year of Daye, Sima Chang'an, the great commander of the anti-Sui rebel army, led his troops to capture Changping County in one fell swoop and took it as a basis for a long time. However, like Sima Chang'an, these anti-Sui rebel leaders who were rising all over the world had no long-term strategic vision and adhered to the principle of occupying one land and grabbing one land. If they didn't know how to manage the place and cultivate people's livelihood, they would naturally make the occupied land miserable and complain.

After Sima Chang'an's troops occupied Changping, after a three-foot plunder, the tragic situation around Changping County was also caused by a thousand miles of tragic situation. At the same time, due to internal power struggles, the great commander Sima Chang'an and Li Shicai, the rising general of his troops, had a dirty and friction. After a while, it seemed like "Li and Guo were in Chang'an" in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. After a big fight, Li Shicai, the young and powerful sect, gained the upper hand.

At present, Sima Chang'an, who was originally the commander of the entire army, was driven out of Changping County by the troops who supported Li Shicai, and led Shang Zhong's subordinates to temporarily stationed in Xuanshi County, which belonged to Changping County. Li Shicai now regards himself as a great commander, and leads the troops who support him to occupy the city of Changping County.

If history does not change, it will continue to follow the original trajectory. Sima Chang'an, who was unable to compete for Li Shicai, would then move troops to Xihe and find a way out to capture Xihe County. Xu Shiye, Ling Jing and others have compiled the recent spies to carefully investigate the recent situation of Changping County, and wanted to take advantage of the conflict between Sima Chang'an and Li Shicai and take advantage of the opportunity to capture Changping County.

As for the overall strength of the Huyi Camp under Xu Shiye's army, with the full rest and training stationed in Ji County, it is actually easy to defeat Sima Chang'an and Li Shicai, which is more than enough to defeat Changping.

But considering that if a frontal full-scale attack was carried out, it would undoubtedly prompt Sima Chang'an and Li Shicai to work together to deal with foreign enemies. In this way, the consumption of attacking Changping would inevitably increase accordingly. The more than 10,000 infantry and 500 cavalry in Xu Shiye's hands were the capital for his start and the basis for further expansion in the future. To seize Changping, both sides suffered losses and were inflicted, which was definitely not something Xu Shiye could accept now.

For another consideration, Xu Shiye was still worried that he would attract the attention of Yang Yichen, the veteran Sui Ting general who had basically defeated Gao Shida and Zhang Jincheng's troops and was clearing out Gao Shida and Zhang Jincheng's remaining troops to avoid causing Yang Yichen to take heavy troops south. The overly powerful force of the commander-in-arms to advance westward will inevitably cause the place to pass, especially the shock of Hanoi County, and even alarm the eastern capital Luoyang. In this way, it is hard to say that Yang Tong, the King of Sui Tingyue in Luoyang, would not ask Yang Yichen, who was commanding heavy troops in the north for help?

Therefore, after a detailed discussion and discussion, Xu Shiye and Liu Heita, Ling Jing and others decided to implement a surprise attack.

The reason why Xu Shiye decided to take action himself was that he finally decided after his repeated insistence. Xu Shiye considered that he knew nothing about the war in the cold weapon era, and could use this relatively small-scale war to train him to accumulate practical experience for himself in the future to participate in the world of fighting. Otherwise, Liu Heita could also be the leader of this battle.

It is based on the above reasons that after careful discussion with Liu Heita, Ling Jing and others and repeated persistence, Xu Shiye decided that he would lead Ling Jing and Xiong Kuohai to lead five hundred cavalry to capture Changping County.
