Chapter 313 Tiger Row (14)

In the city of Pingchang, there is a Dengzhou reinforcement army of thousands of people at this time, plus a big leader Wang Zhen, two leaders Meng Yigui and Chang Ling, a guest Qing Xie Minghe... and Bai Yousi just met with Ma Ping'er I went straight to the Qipan camp in front of Ban County to find Zhang Xing to meet up, and only set off for half an hour.

In fact, Wu Jingfeng had already left Douzigang, and Wei Xuanding had also left Banxian County to gather there.

Everyone is preparing to conduct strategic discussions on the next stage of the war based on the latest battle situation on the east and west sides.

And at this time, outside Pingchang City, an official army following the arrival of the reinforcements suddenly sent envoys into Pingchang City to ask for surrender. Not to mention other places, the few people in the city were naturally shocked.

"Is it a false surrender?!" Wang Zhen, as the only big leader here, but also the leader of the reinforcements who just came from Dengzhou, almost instinctively said something that almost everyone would have doubts about. "It's late in the evening, come to do Nei Ying Qu City?"

"Not necessarily." Chang Neg blurted out. "How can there be a Sima who supervises the army, leads a Zhonglang general, holds a prefect hostage, and brings an army to make a false surrender? This is too big! There are all big counties in Hebei, and a prefect is against the mark. A big boss."

"It won't be a false surrender!" Xie Minghe quickly read the letter of surrender brought by the messenger, and immediately made a promise. "I know Chen Bin. He and I are old friends from Jiangdong, and I was ordered to persuade him to surrender before. He didn't come here for no reason... I am willing to be his guarantor."

Wang Zhen still hesitated.

"Whatever he does." Meng Guiyi said in a low voice at this moment. "Let them wait, let's quickly send someone to the camp in Ban County to ask for instructions."

"Ask for instructions is inevitable." Xie Minghe immediately came to his senses, and then quickly spoke out. "However, if this army is not included in the city at this time, Xue Changxiong will find out that if he leads his troops to attack at night, the descending army will probably be wiped out! At that time, no one will dare to continue to surrender. This is a great opportunity It will be ruined for nothing.”

Wang Zhen was slightly taken aback.

But at this point, Meng Yigui and Chang Ling didn't say much anymore. It was not just because, like Wang Zhen, they were newcomers and their eyes were smudged about the situation in Hebei.Another important point is that although they are leaders, they are essentially descendants, and they can't be called Miao Honggenzheng... It's not that they don't want to make contributions, but that their shoulders are really narrow and they can't bear that responsibility.

Xie Minghe originally wanted to urge, but after thinking about it, he grasped an important point instead: "Your Excellency, think about it... Where did they come from? It was from the east! And it was clearly stated in the letter that he knew that Big Leader Bai defeated You last night. Regarding the matter of the state army, if you go to Yangxin and go to Yangxin, you will not be able to catch up, so we don’t care about anything, just say one thing, that is, the army outside the city at this time thinks that Chief Bai, Your Excellency and I are leading The Dengzhou soldiers are in the city! So, give them the guts to pretend to surrender under the nose of a master like Chief Bai?"

"Not bad!" Wang Zhen was stunned. "If you know that Chief Bai is here, how dare you bring three such important people here to feign surrender and make money? It must be true surrender."

"That's it." Xie Minghe was overjoyed, and hurriedly continued to distribute. "Boss Wang and Boss Meng are making arrangements in the city. I will go out of the city to pick up people to see if it is Chen Bin. If so, I will bring people in immediately... Chief Chang will immediately go to the west to inform the leader and the others!"

Wang Zhen immediately made a decision: "Just do it like this!"

Now that someone is responsible, the matter will be carried out quickly, and soon, Xie Minghe leads the way, Chen Bin and Wang Fubei escort the prefect of Zhou who has been crying all day, and his tears are almost dry, and the man who is finally in a daze Zhang Gongshen came in.

When the two sides met, Chen and Wang naturally wanted to invite Bai Yousi.

And at this time, Xie Minghe just told the truth, clearly telling the other party that Bai Yousi had brought another female leader, Ma Ping'er, to the camp in Ban County.

"Then I'm going to Banxian Camp too!" Chen Bin thought for a while, and immediately spoke. "Tonight, you must meet someone who is in charge."

"I can make my own decisions." Wang Zhen replied proudly. "Just now I made the decision to let you in."

Chen Bin was stunned for a moment.

On the contrary, Xie Minghe had no choice but to smooth things over: "This is the leader of the Great Sage King with one arm."

"It's not this that decides..." Chen Bin came to his senses, suppressed the emotion that he didn't know whether it was anger or helplessness, and quickly explained. "It means that as the supervisor of the army, I have the secrets of the overall military situation, and it is only effective tonight. I should inform the commander of the army who can make the decision as soon as possible. There are those who can decide to send troops to fight. Therefore, it is not Zhang and Bai. In person, Wei and Xiong wouldn't say anything if they came to ask, let alone Chief Wang?"

Wang Zhen knew the pros and cons to some extent, but when he was rushed by the opponent, he felt a little uncomfortable for a while.

It was Xie Minghe who had no choice but to come back immediately to make amends: "Boss Wang, Chen Bin is the supervisor of the army, and he knows the secrets of the Hejian camp. The chance of victory may be tonight! Why don't you sit here and I will accompany him to chase after him?" Chief Chang!"

Wang Zhen nodded angrily: "Go quickly!"

Just when Chen Bin and Wang Fubei formally surrendered, and then hurried westward with Xie Minghe, Xue Changxiong and other high-ranking officers had already realized that Chen Bin was at the Mamianhe military camp, which was not far in a straight line. problem occurs.

"There is no news at this time, I am afraid that Chen Sima really met Bai Sanniang's Dengzhou Army!" Murong Zheng said seriously. "Do you want to send a soldier to rescue?"

"It's too late to rescue him right now?" Zhong Lang Jiang Wang Yu frowned slightly. "If Bai Sanniang really hit him head-on, and then Bai Sanniang only stared at him, forgive me, there is no help at this time... On the other hand, as long as Bai Sanniang doesn't target Chen Sima, then I It is estimated that Chen Sima and Zhou Taishou were at most driven to the east, and temporarily retreated to the Leling and Wudi areas."

"Not bad." Xue Changxiong nodded in his seat, also worried. "That's the reason... But Chen Sima is the key point in the army. I can't live without him here for a day. That's good. Write a document immediately and let the messenger take it to Leling. First, see if Chen Sima is there? If so , let him come back as soon as possible; if not, immediately let Wang Fubei, who should be in Leling at this time, go south with Han Dingbo to search and rescue!"

In the big tent, several Chinese military confidential documents looked at each other. They actually listened to this military discussion at the beginning. At most, they said that the Youzhou Army was defeated too quickly, and Chen Sima had a bad information. This seems to be correct. The above... But at this point, it is full of doubts.

"What's wrong?" Xue Changxiong frowned. "Aren't you going to make a military order as soon as possible?"

In desperation, the confidential lieutenant surnamed Yu who had taken half a step before could only bite the bullet and remind carefully: "General... Before Chen Sima went to pick up Zhou Taishou today, he specially made a few documents at the order of the general, according to the order of the general. Documents, the two generals Wang and Han, as well as the soldiers of Bohai County, are going south to Yangxin to gather the Youzhou Army... Has the General forgotten?"

Xue Changxiong froze on the spot: "Follow my order? Why didn't I know?"

The entire Chinese military camp was silent.

"Then send people to Yangxin at the same time!" Murong Zhengyan was the first to react and quickly reminded. "At this time, it's the first thing to find out about the military situation in the east, and at the same time try to search for Chen Sima! After the lineup is over, we can discuss it!"

Xue Changxiong came to his senses and waved his hands quickly: "Have you heard that, hurry up and do the paperwork!"

Several confidential documents went to work separately as if they were pardoned.

But Xue Changxiong immediately ordered one person: "Deputy Yu, come here and explain to us what Chen Sima did in the morning."

Deputy Lieutenant Yu knew something was wrong, but he could only move forward tremblingly, surrounded by many Zhonglang generals, and began to narrate: "When the sun was still dark in the morning, my subordinates dozed off at their desks here. Sima woke up with a slap on the forehead..."

Qian Tang, the prefect of Pingyuan who listened carefully to the story, couldn't help but rubbed his shoes on the ground.

Besides, on the other side, Zhang Xing and Bai Yousi met each other, and then went to call the leaders to prepare for a meeting. Before the meeting, we had dinner together, and then the meeting started for only a quarter of an hour, and the discussion of the incident was just confirmed by the current parties. Regarding the military situation, Xie Minghe suddenly broke in and reported directly to Zhang Xing's ear.

Everyone was surprised.

Zhang Xing also froze in place.

Xie Minghe had no choice but to repeat it again and again.

Zhang Xing finally said, "Aren't you kidding me?"

Zhang Dalongtou couldn't help being so surprised, Xue Changxiong on the opposite side didn't dare to think in this direction until now!That's Sima, the supervisor of the Hejian camp!
"He's right in front of the door, Chief Chang is watching!" Xie Minghe quickly pointed his finger outside the door. "I asked clearly... the internal reason is that Xue Changxiong has been angry with him these days and does not respect him, and the external reason is that Chief Bai led the Dengzhou Army to suddenly defeat the Youzhou Army. He took the responsibility and was afraid of losing his temper, so Just come and vote! Zhang Longtou, listen to me, this person's identity, he must know all the important affairs of the military aircraft on the other side, and he came to look for you immediately after he surrendered, I'm afraid he really has something in his stomach, so why not take the initiative to greet him as a gesture?"

Zhang Xing came back to his senses, and after realizing the truth of the matter, he got up immediately without hesitation, only shook the white short cloak on his body, looked around, and said seriously: "Everyone, Sima Chen, the supervisor of the Hejian Camp Bin abandons the dark and turns to the light, just outside the door, you all come out with me to welcome you!"

Everyone was astonished, and many people were dumbfounded, but the quick-witted ones were as overjoyed as Xie Minghe. Immediately, no matter whether they were quick-witted or dazed, whether they had just arrived or were originally in the camp, they all got up with Zhang Xing, Let's go out together.

The sky outside was already very dark, Chen Bin stood sideways outside the big barracks, looked at the barracks coldly, thoughtfully, often leaning on his side, just pacing back and forth.

Then, the two of them smelled hurried footsteps in the big barracks, and there was a lot of movement. They thought that there were soldiers coming out to stand in front. Unexpectedly, as soon as they moved their bodies to look, they saw dozens of people wearing white and black cloaks. The leaders of the Dethrone Dragon Gang rushed out.

The leader stretched out his hand even from a distance, and raised his voice and said: "Chen Sima! Your coming today is just like the day when Youlong entered Eastern Chu, and it seems like the ancestor abandoned Longxi! Maybe the road will still be uneasy in the future, but I will never regret my actions today!"

Chen Bin sneered in his heart after hearing the previous example, because although the two were the best for a while, neither of them had a good end... But after hearing the second half of the sentence, he felt that the other party was a pragmatic person after all... After all, the experienced He himself was thinking about today's incident on the way, and he only felt that struggling in troubled times was indeed difficult. If he looked back on today in the future and could not regret this behavior itself, it would be considered good.

What's more, the opponent's posture of leading everyone out to meet him is actually far beyond his imagination.

Therefore, this Chen Sima also forced a smile, ready to go forward to shake hands with the other party, which can be regarded as a performance.

The two sides shook hands, and Chen Sima wanted to say some words on the scene. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xing on the opposite side didn't have a chance to speak to him, but directly dragged him to turn around, then let go of his hand, and pointed to a middle-aged man in a commoner coat with a white cloak in front of him. Year Scribe:
"This is Wei Gong Wei Xuanding, the chief of our Dethroned Dragon Gang!"

"Chen Sima, I have admired your name for a long time, it's a pleasure to meet you!" Wei Xuanding knew the key point, and took the initiative to bow his hands to salute, but Chen Bin could only bow slightly when his hand was held.

Then without waiting for the people beside him to speak, Zhang Xingfu pointed at another person: "This is Xiongbo Nanxiong Heavenly King! We will depose one of the big leaders of the Dragon Gang."

Xiong Bonan also came to salute.

Then Zhang Xing pointed to Bai Yousi beside him: "This is Yitianjian Bai Yousi Bai Sanniang, also the leader of Zhongyi, she was the one who defeated the Youzhou army in Yangxin last night!"

Bai Yousi naturally knew what Zhang Xing was thinking, so he immediately bowed his hands and said it was a pleasure to meet him.

Seeing this person also saluted, Chen Bin was panicked for a moment, but his hand was pulled, so he had no choice but to accept the other party's salute.

"This person is also the leader of Zhongyi, Wu Jingfeng who is famous in Jingxiang!" Zhang Xing pointed to another person.

Wu Jingfeng smiled, and imitated Bai Yousi and bowed his hands in salute.

Next, Zhang Xing actually didn't pull him alone, and Fu pointed at Wang Shuyong, Shan Tonghai, Cheng Zhili, Fu Boshi, Gao Shitong, Zhai Qian, Jia Yue, Zhou Xingfan, Yan Qing, Wang Xiongdan, Ma Ping'er, Liu Zhouchen , Shang Huaien, Jia Runshi, Lu Hongyue, Zhang Shanxiang, Xu Kaitong, Cheng Mingqi, Zu Chenyan, Zheng Ting, Tang Bairen, Fan Bao, Xiahou Ningyuan, Dou Lide, Hao Yide, Zhuge Dewei, Fan Wang.

It turned out that all the leaders, big and small, were pointed out and introduced in turn, and everyone also took the initiative to salute and greet.

In the end, even though Chen Bin knew that the other party wanted to use this to express his importance and respect, he couldn't help secretly sighing after receiving a salute from almost all the leaders of the Dragon Army in Hebei.

However, after the introduction, everyone turned back to the barracks, and Chen Binfu was surprised again—without him, there was no priority in the discussion here, but a fire pit in the middle, and a circle of tables was spliced ​​together, and then this Sanlang and a group of people in white shorts The big bosses in the cloak sat in a circle.

Then, the leaders were uneven, and circled around the periphery again. The young confidential clerical officers in the barracks continued to come and go, providing documents and preparing records, and then set up a circle of desks next to the edge of the barracks.

"Bring Chen Sima a chair, it's by my side." Zhang Xing continued to hold the man's hand and gave instructions.

Immediately next to him, a young officer temporarily took a chair from the outermost periphery, and placed it beside Zhang Xing, and then Zhang Dalong personally helped the man in his hand to sit down.

The moment his butt touched the chair, Chen Bin felt completely at ease.

At this time, he wanted to speak and offered to offer the general's love.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Dalong still didn't give him a chance to speak, but continued to hold a hand and said: "Everyone...Since Chen Sima is here, we are all together, so let's take advantage of the situation to make a decision...I think Chen Sima can make it A big leader, General Wang Fubei who came with him can be a leader! And the leader Xu Shiren stayed in Pingchang this time, supervised the front line, plus the meritorious service of killing Xue Wanliang before, he should also be made a big leader!"

Everyone roared, but Chen Bin thought he was calculating clearly in his heart. He knew that the other party was trying to buy people's hearts and make gestures.

In the confusion, Zhang Xing looked at Xie Minghe instead: "Brother Xie, do you have to wait any longer?"

Xie Minghe sighed, and sat down at the side: "Today, let's follow my old friend Nan Chen to show some loyalty."

"Add one more." Zhang Xing immediately turned around and shared with the crowd. "Xie Minghe is already known to everyone. He has changed from Keqing to the leader, but still don't disclose his name to the public. Please don't waste time and make a decision immediately!"

Speaking of which, Zhang Xing raised his empty hand, and immediately, Wei Xuanding started, followed by Bai Yousi and Xiong Bonan, and everyone raised their hands one after another, and they all passed the matter... Even Shan Tonghai didn't have any extra gestures .

After raising his hand, Zhang Xing still did not let go, but turned around and asked, "Boss Chen, we were discussing the battle situation just now, and we really don't know what to do next. Do you have any advice?"

The rest of the people also looked over together.

Chen Bin was a little uncomfortable with this new title, felt it in his heart for a while, and then slowly said: "You must already know that the Youzhou Army broke up and left?"

"It's natural." Zhang Xing opened his mouth to answer. "Luo Shu's son, Luo Xin, had his leg broken and is locked behind him now!"

Chen Bin nodded, and continued to speak slowly: "You know, Xue Changxiong also sent Gao Zhan, Xue Wanbi, and Cao Shancheng to lead a team of more than [-] people, including six Zhonglang generals as many as one Are the elite rangers from the Wanbaqian Hejian camp going around the flanks, planning to attack from the west side of Douzigang? They are also planning to use the banner of Qu Tuda!"

The crowd roared.

But soon, someone reacted.

"Yes." Dou Lide slammed the table from behind. "Wouldn't it be a good combination of those who went to transport the big wood and change the defense? I said how the two groups collided! What a coincidence... and Qu Tuda!"

Everyone also reacted.

But Chen Bin's heart moved slightly, but he immediately realized that there must be powerful spies on the opposite side of the Dragon Gang.

"So..." Zhang Xing also quickly came to his senses. "Boss Chen means that this is a fighter plane?!"

"Yes, this is a fighter." Chen Bin immediately came to explain. In fact, this is the real hole card for his decision to turn against the water this time, a hole card for changing the position of the big boss, but he didn't expect the other party to be so knowledgeable. . "Please, Zhang Longtou and everyone, you will know the time... These 2 people left the army camp at noon yesterday. Up to now, it took a day and night plus half a day, and then they went around our camp and went to Douzigang. Going to Lujiao Pass, I guess they are near Pingyuan City at this time, right? In fact, according to the military order I assigned them, they should gather at Pingyuan City at noon today... In other words, they are not in Pingyuan at this time City, camped on the road to Douzigang on the east side of Pingyuan City."

"Yes." Zhang Xing thought for a moment, then nodded immediately.

Among the leaders around, some directly nodded, some simply took out charcoal pens and white paper to draw, and some even dipped their fingers in ginger soup to make calculations on the table to find the relative position.

"So, even if the opponent finds out that I'm coming to cast... I'll throw away the dark and turn to the bright, and immediately send a messenger there. From now on, within a day and night, they will definitely not be able to join forces again. Failure to join forces is naturally an opportunity." Chen Bin continued to talk. "Then it depends on two conditions. One is whether they are in Pingyuan City or on the road east of Pingyuan City; the other is whether they will immediately go back to Ender to the Mamianhe official army camp after receiving relevant information. Converge here, or continue to attack us, or stop at the same place and be at a loss?"

Hearing this, many people are already stunned.

Zhang Xing also laughed: "Where does Chief Chen think they are? How would he choose?"

"I personally think that, first of all, they should be closer to us on the road east of Pingyuan City." Chen Bin replied seriously. "Because the troops of the Hejian Daying Camp are still safe in terms of this kind of march, it is bound to be no problem to gather at noon today, and considering that there are three people surnamed Xue in the side of the movement, they are eager to stand in front of Xue Changxiong. To show their abilities and win military merits, nine out of ten troops will be urged by them to leave quickly after assembly, and come to Lujiao Pass on the other side of Douzigang; secondly, it is because of the presence of the three brothers of the Xue family, especially Xue Wanbi This person is brave and foolhardy, but also extremely arrogant, so even if they get the news in time tomorrow, it is unlikely that they will retreat. Instead, they will continue to march, or confront Gao Zhan, Cao Shancheng and the others. .”

"Then we can prepare in advance, and send the army back to attack head-on from Douzigang!" Shan Tonghai suddenly clapped the case when he heard this. "Yes or no?!"

"Yes." Chen Bin looked at the other party, his tone full of confidence. "As far as I know, after the earth mountain collapsed, the people in the big camp in front of them were actually very resistant to storming the camp, and the big leader Bai suddenly led the reinforcements to arrive, and defeated the Youzhou army. You can divide the superior force and try to strike!"

The other leaders also talked a lot, but most of them expressed their approval, and a few expressed their worries about the distribution of troops. They were all worried that once an attack was made, Xue Changxiong on the opposite side would definitely attack with all his strength, and the camp would not be able to resist it.However, even the latter felt that if the Douzi Gang took the initiative to attack from the side of Douzigang, it must be the main attack to settle the battle in Douzigang, so as to prevent the opponent from pushing behind the army stronghold to fight Xue. Chang Xiong actually formed a pincer confluence.

"In any case, send someone to investigate between Pingyuan City and Lujiao Pass..." Wei Xuanding reminded seriously. "If they are really there, if they really come over tomorrow, they will fight."

Wu Jingfeng simply got up: "I'll go there myself, and I'll be back before the third watch!"

Zhang Xing, who hadn't said a word for a long time, waved his hand to stop the opponent, but instead looked at Chen Bin: "Boss Chen, I think the battle opportunity has indeed arrived, and if there is no accident, the victory may be determined tomorrow...Your achievements today are obvious to all, who Will never forget."

Chen Bin quickly handed over.

Immediately, Zhang Xing looked at Wu Jingfeng again: "Wu Dalang, I don't think we need to investigate."

Wu Jingfeng was puzzled for a moment, and the others were also surprised, but Bai Yousi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly laughed.

"Is San Niang the same as I think?" Seeing this, Zhang Xing also looked at Bai Yousi and laughed. "To tell you the truth, I'm still a little guilty."

"I'm here with a sword to strengthen your courage." Bai Yousi did not hesitate.

Others were still puzzled, but Chen Bin, who had been thinking too much about this matter, was shocked, then stood up in amazement, and looked at the two of them: "The Xian couple are so bold!"

Zhang Xing got up calmly, pushed the other party back to his seat, and at the same time said earnestly: "No matter what, this is all thanks to Chief Chen."

At this point, Zhang Xing did not sit back. Instead, he turned around to look at the big and small leaders around him. Then, as always, no matter how frightened and shaken he was, he did not stop at all in his actions, nor hesitated in his posture:
"Everyone, I actually have a safer and more risky idea! That is, we don't have to rely on luck to find that partial division! We don't take the risk of dividing our troops either! Only tomorrow morning, we will leave the camps and cities and gather all the strength of the entire army. Raise the whole army to fight Xue Changxiong in front of you!"

In the silence of the entire camp, Zhang Xing asked, "What do you think?"

The people around were still silent for a moment.

After a long while, only Shan Tonghai mustered up the courage and said with all his might, "That's the grand master!"

"It's the Grandmaster!" Zhang Xing answered boldly.

As soon as this statement was made, the camp exploded.

"I'm going to kill him with my own hands!" Almost at the same time, Xue Changxiong finally forced himself to believe in the possible reality after collecting all the news, including the news that the Youzhou Army's defeated soldiers had personally seen Wang Fubei's troops going south alone. Then, his eyes were red, he pulled out the straight knife, and with a single blow, he beheaded the deputy lieutenant in front of him.

The heads that had been bombed that morning were all flying.

But after the murder, General Xue, who was a dignified master, fell back to his seat in panic amidst the panic of the camp, and was paralyzed for a while.

Half an hour later, Qian Tang, the bare-handed county guard who had watched a big show, returned to the camp, and immediately found the "spy" Lu Changheng. After a little discussion, the two fled in disguise without hesitation, and came directly to Tushan.

PS: Thanks to Mr. Shengyi for another alliance, I am very grateful.

Can't stop.
