Chapter 166 Across the River

There are many waterways in Jingzhou, and there are even more cattle hairs around Fanning. This is considered to be a risk-free and better than nothing. Among them, the relatively large rivers around Fanning City are only Tuanhe and Baihe.

The turbulent river is named after the upper reaches pass through the gorge and the water flows rapidly. It flows from northwest to Fanning City more than 20 miles away, and finally converges to the Baihe River from north to south, flowing through Fanning to the Yangtze River.

On the south bank where the two rivers meet, 20,000 tiger guards have laid a rock-stable camp. The entire Yingpan is built into a triangle, focusing on defense in the north and east directions. Twenty miles southeast behind it is Fanning City, which is a horn with it.

"Prince, someone outside the camp asked for a visit."

"Someone asked for a meeting? I haven't had a hot day yet. Who is so well-informed? Can the other party give his name?"

"The person who came was a man in his forties and called himself Zhu."

"Brother Zhu? Come and invite me quickly, forget it, I'll go to welcome me in person." Qingyan couldn't wait to run towards the Nanfang Village Gate, and saw Zhu Jiu standing at the gate from afar waving to him.

Qingyan was really surprised, "Brother! How do you know I'm here?"

"The prince is so confused. Now no one in Nanzhao knows that you led the Huwei Camp to Jingbei to fight Xiliang. As soon as you left, Zhu came to Fanning day and night, but he didn't expect that the prince was walking on the water road, and Zhu was only half a day faster than you." Zhu Jiu sighed very much every time he saw Qingyan, thinking that this young prince had never relied on his identity and was arrogant.

"Then Brother Zhu comes to find me, there must be something wrong. Let's talk about it in detail." Qing Yan took the other party's hand without saying a word and walked towards the handsome tent.

In the commander's tent, Zhu Jiu sat in the lower right head. Except for Qingyan in the upright position, only Shi Zhan guards were on the side.

"Brother, there are no outsiders here. Just tell me your intentions in the future. If I can do it now, you will do it. If there is a tricky thing, I will solve Xiliang."

"The prince misunderstood. Zhu has nothing to do to bother the prince. It is my own intention to come to Fan Ning this time, and it is even more important to the gang leader."

Qingyan thought for a moment and was overjoyed, saying happily: "Brother Zhu is here to help me defend the enemy?"

"It can be said that Li Dun can't do things too clearly, because the second Kinze and a small number of Dunhu brothers are among the two northern countries, so I can only help a little secretly and cannot kill the enemy with the prince. Alas... it's really a big regret." Zhu Jiu said in a melancholy tone.

"It's already like a tiger with the help of Brother Zhu in secret. How can I force myself to do anything?" Qing Yan said excitedly: "It just so happens that I'm very anxious now, but I'm struggling with people. I didn't expect that Brother Zhu's magic weapon would rain in time."

Zhu Jiu slapped his chest as he heard this, "What does the prince have to do but say it's okay."

"I hope to use the power of the rudder to evacuate all the people north of Xiangyang. Now it is about to start winter. If you go into the mountains to hide, I don't know how many people will die in vain. So I hope that Brother can help them enter the nearby city."

"But the number of cities is limited, and the people of Jingzhou cannot all be protected by the city walls. If Brother Zhu can escort them into Jinzhou, then I will have no worries." Qing Yan expressed the worries in these days.

Although civilians often suffer the most in previous wars, Qingyan still hopes to minimize unnecessary casualties. If the people in Jingbei transfer safely, the morale of the Xiangfan Legion will definitely increase.

"I have another thing to worry about. Brother Hui. I hope you can start the rudder and sink the ships along the waterway as much as possible. Even if the temperature is extremely low this winter, it is necessary to make sufficient preparations."

The memories in the soul and the experience of coming to this world make Qingyan a little puzzled. If it were extremely rare to snow in Jingzhou in later generations, but after living in Fanning for so many years, heavy snow fell down every winter. This is really incredible.

"Prince, please rest assured. I will complete these two things in the shortest time." Zhu Jiu said in a deep voice: "But Zhu still wants to remind the prince that Xiliang has been raising energy for twenty years, and this time he goes south is bound to win. I hope the prince can take care of himself."

"Thank you for your reminder from Brother Zhu, I will definitely be careful and take care of myself."

--------------------(I'm a dividing line)

Two days later, Qingyan stood above the sentry tower and crossed the turbulent river to look north, and saw dust and smoke rolling on the horizon. After a stick of incense, the large group of cavalry rushed towards him like a scattered sea of ​​straits, with the momentum shocking the sky.

The enemy cavalry slowly lowered their horse speed a hundred feet away from the north bank of Tuanhe River. Qingyan secretly calculated the number and found that the pair of cavalry was less than 10,000, and should be the vanguard of the enemy's army, and they set up camp for the central army.

"Your Majesty, this is a kidnapped horse from Xiliang. It is a light cavalry. It is very mobile and not to mention that it is better to ride and shoot. I was a humble official and fought with them many times with the old prince." Bai Yi explained.

Qing Yan calmly observed ten thousand crutches and thought to himself that Xiliang was indeed a country on the back of the horse. The power of these ordinary cavalry was so great that it seemed that the Western Liang Iron Cavalry was well-known.

Half an hour later, the main force of Xiliang had already reached the Gunzima and began to set up camp. Qingyan did not mean to take the initiative first. Not to mention the cavalrymen who were waiting for the battle on the other side, his 20,000 people were definitely not the opponents of the main force of Xiliang. As long as they did not cross the river, they would not fight with them.

"Prince, look, there is an army on the east side of the camp and it is not involved in the camping." Shi Zhan reminded.

"That army should be planning to cross the Baihe River to surround Fan Ning's troops after the camp. Bailiji could not spend 100,000 and 20,000 people here." Qingyan smiled and said, "Our army wants to support Fan Ning, but Bailiji also knows."

Shi Zhan did not miss any opportunity to learn and echoed: "So that's the case. Our army and Fan Ning are across the Baihe River. Bailiji also wants to do this. This will not only limit Fan Ning City, but also echo the camp on the west bank of the Baihe River."

"Yes, then guess how many people Bailiji will leave behind to confront us across the river."

"Beizhi believes that at least 50,000 troops would be left behind. Bailiji could not know the number of defenders in Fanning City, so he would not send most of the troops to cross the Baihe River. The most important thing is that the prince personally led the troops here. Even if Bailiji is brave, he would have to leave several times the troops to be at ease."

Qingyan laughed in silence, "I didn't expect you to be so flattering. Ye Tian, ​​you can learn more about history and war in the future. Seeing that they have slapped the flattering in just a short time and I don't feel disgusted at all. They are simply a master here."

Before leaving Jinling, Ye Tian was promoted to the commander of the commander, so he was qualified to stand on this whistle tower. After hearing Qingyan's words, he said shyly: "What the prince said is very true. In the future, he will learn more from the commander of Shi."

"The son is teachable." Qing Yan looked at the enemy again, and his tone was teasing, "But Shi Zhan's words are not unreasonable. Bailiji might really leave half of the men and horses to press me here. Now we can only pray that the other party will lack food and grass."

Before that, the enemy camp had almost set off, and Qingyan was a little bored. Just as he was about to walk down the sentry tower, he saw a small team of cavalry coming out of the enemy, regardless of the range of the south bank.

"Don't shoot arrows, let's see what they do first."

The enemy cavalry team stopped on the shore, and a general wearing golden armor shouted loudly: "I am the prince of Xiliang, Bailiji, can the commander of your army appear and see me!"

"This grandson is a little brave and is not afraid that I will shoot thousands of arrows at once."

"It's better to be a humble prince to go there and be careful of fraud." Bai Yi was a little worried.

"Bailiji is not afraid of crossbows, so why do I have no reason not to go there in person and lead Mo Xue here?" Qingyan was unmoved.

After Qingyan led Bai Yi and Shi Zhan to the south bank of Tuan River, Bai Li Ji whispered again: "I wonder if you are?"

"Zhao Qingyan, Beifu."

"It turns out that I am really a prince who is shoulder to shoulder. I didn't expect that I am so lucky to be able to meet the descendants of the Zhao family." Baili Ji's tone was very peaceful, "When Lingzun was so popular, I was still young and had never seen the God of War Qingtian, but it would be worth the trip to see the prince today."

Qingyan smiled at the sky, "I don't know that your highness will blush after saying this. If you admire me, it's good to go to Jinling. Even if you are afraid that the journey is long, you can write a letter. I will come to Fanning to meet you, but in this situation, it's really a bit of a shame."

"The prince is indeed quick to speak. Since this is the case, I will be straight to the point. My father and I attach great importance to the prince's ability and have always been angry with Xiliang why he did not show such a great hero as the father and son of the Zhao family. So before leaving, the father told me that if I meet the prince, I must inform you of my admiration."

Seeing that Qingyan did not interrupt him, Baili Ji continued to rope: "Although the prince is nominally above ten thousand people in Nan Zhao, he does not have much military power, and only has 30,000 tiger guards in his hand. If the prince can abandon the secret and turn to the light to be loyal to Xiliang, his father will definitely hand over all his troops to the prince, and then the world is just around the corner."

"It's just a little more soldiers. Is the Emperor of Xiliang just so brave?"

When Bai Li Ji heard this, he was overjoyed, "Of course there is no only these. Giving the full power of the army to the prince is just to express his father's trust in the prince. If the prince helps Xiliang to siege Nan Zhao, after finally destroying Beiyan, the father promises to share the world with you."

"That's right. Saying more useful things can impress me." Qingyan played with the horse whip and smiled.

"I don't know what the prince is thinking. If the prince nods, we will work together to kill Fan Ning and occupy Xiangyang again. We will create a great achievement together!"

Qingyan made a gesture, and Bai Yi put a big banner on the red face without hesitation. The strong wind blew, and the black flag roared.

"Your Highness, do you know the words on it?"

"If I guessed it wrong, this should be the flag of Huangqi, the Northern Palace." Bailiji could clearly see the words on the black flag.

‘Northern Mansion’

After taking the red-eye gun, Qingyan raised the flag and said loudly: "Bailiji, my father killed you Xiliang under this flag and cried and called you to mom, making you a turtle that has been shrinking for more than 20 years. Although my son is not as capable as a son, he will also kill your grandsons under this flag without leaving any armor. Do you understand?"

The smile on Bailiji's face gradually disappeared, and he looked at the three people on the other side of the river coldly, "So, do you not appreciate the kindness of my palace?"

"I appreciate it? You broke through the gates of the wife, burned, killed, plundered and plundered, and I don't know how many things you did torment. Today, you actually licked your face and asked me to be your lackey. There are so many toads in the temple's little demon wind and big pool. There are indeed no heroes in this broken place in Xiliang. Even the words of the dignified prince are so unreasonable."

"It seems that the prince really doesn't plan to appreciate it anymore. Since I have given you a way out, you will find out the battle." After that, he snorted coldly and turned his head.
