Robber Zhi was a very proud man. In his early years, he was a bandit in Dayezawa. He had 9,000 soldiers under his command. In the towns that he passes through, the big country defends the city, the small country protects the city, and the people suffer from it.

It was not until he was beaten a few times by Zhao Wuxi with his military pawns that his unruly heart was a little calm, and he reluctantly condescended to it.

But in the past few years, the martial arts of Robber Zhi began to prosper again. First, they chased the merchants of Qi State on Jishui, Pushui, and Wudao; they also caused trouble for the Chen family of Qi State on the big river; In the Song Rebellion, he made great contributions with a special army. Of course, there he also met the second person who was convinced in his life, the mysterious fisherman who led the way in the grass.

In short, Thief Zhi became proud again, and felt that he could beat the invincible player all over the world.

As a result, he was transferred to Jin with great enthusiasm this time, and he suffered a big defeat just after showing his head in Jijin.

He was very depressed, and at this moment, under Zhao Wuxi's scrutiny, he looked very embarrassed with his unshaven face.

Zhao Wuxi stared at this subordinate who was not afraid of the powerful: "Tell me, what's going on?"

Thief Zhi opened his mouth several times before saying, "This is what happened. A few days ago, when we arrived at the south bank of Jijin, we were ready to cross the great river north. Because the scouts and the sentries said that the Zhongxing clan hastily marched westward, we believed it to be true. , rest assured to cross the river, until now, everything is going well."

"Although there is a small town on the north bank of Jijin, it occupies a small area, and most of the piers are outside the wall. Just when we had just passed half of the people, we suddenly got news that a large army was approaching. More than 10,000 people from the clan suddenly attacked Jijin, so we were caught off guard."

Zhao Wuxi listened and was dumbfounded: "Isn't this the trick that I used before, there are talents in the Bank of China, who even steal the teacher and use it on you, and it still works?"

He was a little disappointed. Although the elites in the follow-up troops could not compare with the forwards, there were also a thousand soldiers standing in the line. In addition, Yang Tong Rong is good at defending, and Robber Zhi is good at attacking. The cooperation of these two people should be foolproof. Unexpectedly, there was still a defeat: since the military soldier became an army. Biggest defeat ever!

Thief Zhi said ashamedly: "The timing of the enemy's army was very good. It took two days for 8,000 people to cross the river, and the river cut off the north and south from each other. The previous precautions were far from enough. At that time, I took the refugee division and the left army. He was already on the north bank, and Sima Yang Tong was on the south bank. When the enemy attacked, he also wanted to come for reinforcements, but most of the boats were on the north bank, and with the rapid currents, the rafts carrying reinforcements were rushed downstream, and it was difficult to respond. The rest of us are outnumbered."

"Go ahead, how many people have been lost, this is what I care about most!"

Thief Zhi said: "After the attack, we lost nearly a thousand, and the minister saw that the adjacent positions were lost, and he felt that the North Bank Pier and Xiaoyi might not be safe. So he took people to cover everyone and evacuate. I stood there for a few hours, Let the military soldiers and the central army withdraw smoothly, leaving only the left army..."

The Zuo Army was a miscellaneous army made up of the people belonging to Doctor Donglu. These people were originally drawn out to serve as civilian husbands. Zhao Wuxi could already guess the result.

Thief Zhi said bitterly: "Those doctors who commanded the left army were also unequivocal. When Zhonghang's disciples rushed over, they cut off the flag and surrendered, and my flank collapsed like this."

As a result, although the military soldiers and the central army suffered casualties, the main force was successfully withdrawn to the south bank. It may be a fortune to be stationed in Linyan under the command of Yang Tongrong. The left army Zetai half surrendered to the enemy, Zhao Wuxi was not a pity, but he was also a little unhappy.

"In the end. I can only make a **** path by myself, and lead my men to break out of the tidal flats and reeds. It is not easy to go to the south bank, so I drive west along the river bank, hoping to find the main force of the general..."

Fortunately, the riverside is a familiar terrain for Robber Zhi, and this time he brought more than a thousand people to escape. These rabble, robbers and refugees, were usually peasants in the fields, with average training and average treatment. To actually break through the heavy encirclement of the Zhongxing clan and come out alive, and then travel two hundred miles west to join the main force, it is really remarkable.

"The ministers have humiliated the monarch, and the generals should punish them!" Robber Zhi's face was burning badly. His eyes were usually higher than the top, but when Zhao Wuxi swept Fan and Handan, he fought a shameful fight by himself. It's a shame to lose the battle!

Zhao Wuxi asked, "You said that you resisted for several hours, so what happened to the enemy's losses?"

Thief Zhi said loudly, "We haven't made it easier for them. The Bank of China and the Fan family have paid at least 2,000 people to conquer Jijin!"

Two thousand people... Zhao Wuxi doesn't know if this number is reliable, so let's take it as a reference.

"Sorry, you should be punished by military law... But you also have the power to cover. Even I didn't expect that Zhongxing Jinzun was so good at fighting, and Zhongxingyin was accompanied by a brilliant advisor..."

Zhao Wuxi turned his head and asked, "Could it be the Qi Ren Gaoqiang mentioned by Mr.

Yang Yin, who was sitting beside Zhao Wuxi and listened carefully, didn't say anything, and then he cupped his hands and said, "There is only Gao Qiang, this person used to be the Zhengqing of Qi Guo, one person is more than ten thousand people, but he lost everything overnight. As the saying goes, he becomes a famous doctor by folding his arms in three. He knows not only the cold in high places, but also the pain in low places. For thirty years, he has dealt with pains, read thousands of books, and is the number one counselor of the Zhongxing clan.”

Wu Xian said with a sigh: "Fan has Wang Sheng, Zhang Liushuo, and Bank of China has Gao Qiang, these two really cannot be underestimated."

Seeing that everyone's belief in winning was a little shaken, he raised his voice in vain: "But my Zhao family is even more talented! There is Dong Zi to stabilize the rear of Jinyang, Mr. Yin guards the eldest son, Mr. Fu runs around in Xintian, and some Yangzi is ruthless, there are Mr. Yang who can answer everything, there are postal service horses and soldiers involved in danger, Zheng Sishi is around and guards, and Mr. Zhou bluntly advises..."

In the end, Zhao Wuxi walked up to Thief Zhi and patted him on the shoulder: "I have a lot of talents under my command, just say Zishi is an extraordinary general, even though you were defeated in this battle, you are still honored. The humiliation suffered by the left army dragged down, just get it back in the next battle!"

"Wei!" Roar Zhi was very moved when he understood, and he promised loudly, but he didn't know what Zhao Wuxi was thinking was that for the reckless Robber Zhi, losing the last game is not a bad thing.

"By the way, where is the BOC army now!?"

Thief Zhi became serious: "Zhonghang Shi set fire to Jijin Pier, and left more than a thousand people to look at the other side, and then returned to Muyi for a day to rest, and then went out of the nest and brought it to Fan and Gonggong, probably in the A hundred miles behind me!"

Zhao Wuxi looked at the map, and his expression became solemn: "Gao Qiang and Wang Sheng had a tacit understanding, Fan retreated, and Bank of China came to the rescue after eliminating the worries. In this way, the battlefield moved north here, to our unfamiliar away field. ...but, I'm afraid they won't come!"

After closing his eyes and thinking for a moment, Zhao Wuxi opened his eyes full of fighting intent, and said earnestly: "Two or three sons, Mianzhi, the real war has just begun!"

...

This was Zhao Wuxi's tent, but Zhao Yang listened quietly outside, while Dong Zhao soldiers on duty did not dare to make a sound.

Strange to say, after the father had beaten his son neither light nor heavy, the line between East and West was clearly broken, and the vague rejection and hostility disappeared.

After joining the army again, Zhao Wuxi often asked questions to Zhao Yang's diners, and he was more and more recognized by the Western Zhao retainers. Zhao Yang also walked around the East Zhao barracks from time to time, and his personality charm appeared again. The soldiers also know that this is the old lord and must obey him like a general.

After hearing that Zhao Wuxi was encouraging the audience inside, Zhao Yang nodded slightly, applauding Zhao Wuxi's increasingly skilled imperial skills. He is indeed a good heir. If he is unable to manage like the last Fengzu, or if he encounters misfortune in the war, Wu Xian should be able to take over the entire Zhao family logically, and completely let the east and the west merge into one. ...

At least on this point, Zhao Yang can rest assured.

He admired his son's growth and frowned after hearing the last sentence. He didn't go in, but walked around the camp with his hands behind his back.

At the watchtower, the low horn, which indicates that everything will be fine, played loudly, stirring the melancholy and lonely air of the evening.

To be honest, this is the life Zhao Yang likes. On the battlefield, walking among soldiers is much more comfortable than staying in halls and temples. Zhao Yang's subordinates love Zhao Yang very much. In front of a campfire, three crossbowmen dared to invite him to share the hare they had just caught. A young horseman blushed and bowed to his head to tell his story. His ancestors were retainers who served the Zhao family for several generations.

After a short half-circle, the night gradually came, and the bitter summer wind passed through the willow bushes, the branches tossed and whispered.

Zheng Long held the sword~lightnovelpub.net~ Zhou She held the pen and paper, and followed Zhao Yang silently, one wanted to ensure that the lord was unharmed, and the other wanted to record every word of the lord. It was dark, and a few lily fireflies were already flying around them...

This is the silence before the big battle...

Only then did Zhao Yang look to the east. A hundred miles away, the army of the Zhongxing clan was heading towards this direction.

Zhao Yang seemed to be able to see that on the vast Hanoi plain, the wind was blowing with thunder, and the Xiongzhang flags of the Zhonghang clan were all over the four fields, all pointing to the west. Remaining from the bottom, trekking on the avenue on foot...

They are almost the same number as their own, and there are Fan's and Gong's Fan's defenders to support them. This battle is not easy to fight.

But it is the collision that decides the outcome of the entire war and the fate of Jin!

"No shirt is right, the real war has just begun!"
