Chapter 277 Sneak Attack on Pizhou

Li Fen was very satisfied with the plan proposed by Zhao Tai.

Defeating Zhao Tai and gaining Mongolia's trust, he won once.

Suppress Zhang Rou and Shi Tianze and make him the largest warlord in Hebei and Shandong. He will win again.

After his strength grew, he was able to suppress Zhao Tai, turn Zhao Tai into the giant bandit he raised, and continue to benefit from Mongolia. He was a winner.

Ta Si was also very satisfied with Li Fen Jinxian's strategy.

After Mu Huali died, his father Polo also died a few years ago.

Because Muhuali and Pulu died one after another, his generation lost care before it developed.

It's the same wherever people go. The Muhuali family is now being marginalized.

If Tasi can win this battle, he will definitely be appreciated by Wo Kuotai and bring their family back to its core.

After listening to Li Fen's plan, Tasi immediately adopted his suggestion, summoned Zhang Rou and Shi Tianze to discuss, and formulated a battle plan. Li Fen would outflank Zhao Tai, while Zhang Rou and Shi Tianze would contain Zhao Tai from the front.

After Zhang Rou and Shi Tianze heard this, they both rolled their eyes at Li Fen.

Now that their strength has not been restored, they hope to confront the Jin army across the river and do not want to cause any big trouble.

The two of them did not expect that Li Fen would suddenly be so brave and actually want to outflank Zhao Tai's retreat, and they would need the two of them to cooperate to contain him.

Now their strength is more than 10,000 more than the opposite side. If Li Fen leads his troops to sneak attack Zhao Tai's rear, then they will divide their troops again.

This made the two of them feel a little uneasy, fearing that Zhao Tai, who was opposite him, would find out and do something to them.

In addition, even if this battle is won, it is also the credit of Li Fen and Ta Si, and it has little to do with them.

Therefore, both of them are not very motivated.

Zhang Rou said in a deep voice: "Marshal Du, I thought it would be safer to confront each other across Surabaya."

Shi Tianze also said: "Yes! Although we can't cross the river, the Jin soldiers can't cross either. With the strength of our Mongolia, if we continue to stand at each other like this, the Jin army will definitely be unable to hold on."

Tasi frowned when he heard this, "Were the two commanders scared out of their wits in Xuzhou? Now it's Li Fen who is outflanking us. As long as you two are restrained head-on, can't you do this?"

Zhang Rou and Shi Tianze quickly lowered their heads, "I don't dare to do this because of my humble position."

Tasi glared at the two of them and said in a deep voice: "I have made up my mind. Li Fen, please prepare yourself and set off tonight."

Li Fen immediately clasped his fists and said, "I humbly obey my orders!"

~~~~~~

It was night, the third watch, and Li Fen led his fifteen thousand men and horses to leave the Mongolian army camp and headed east into the rolling mountainous area, passing through Mengshan Mountain and heading to Yizhou.

After Li Fen left, the Mongolian army on the north bank of Sishui launched several attacks on the south bank, but was repelled by the Jin army.

The Mongolian and Jin armies on both sides of Surabaya entered a state of confrontation.

At this time, on the north bank, Zhang Rou and Shi Tianze were stationed on horseback by the river, looking at the Jin army camp on the south bank, and saw nothing unusual.

Zhang Rou frowned, "Old Shi, do you think Zhao Tai will find out and Xiao Li will attack him secretly?"

Shi Tianze pondered for a moment, "It's hard to say! Zhao Tai has won several games in a row. He is not a saint, and it is not impossible for him to have arrogance in his heart. If he is careless and does not notice it, I think Li Fen has a chance."

Zhang Rou shook her head, "With the current situation of the Jin Kingdom, Zhao Tai cannot afford to lose at all. If he loses a big game, he will be in danger. Although Zhao Tai has won one after another, it is clear that he has not yet passed the crisis of survival.

I don’t think it’s possible for Zhao Tai to be careless and arrogant at this time.”

Shi Tianze nodded slightly, "Old Zhang, what you said makes sense, but Xiao Li has been gone for a few days, but there is no movement from the Jin Army on the opposite side. It seems that Zhao Tai has not discovered the problem yet. If Xiao Li succeeds in the sneak attack,

Zhao Tai withdraws his troops, will you pursue him or not?"

Zhang Rou pondered for a long time, "If Li Fen succeeds, I will naturally pursue him. Besides, it is not up to us to decide whether to pursue him or not. We have to listen to Marshal Tasi."

Shi Tianze nodded, "Yes, it's really not up to us."

On the south bank, in the Jin Army's camp, Zhao Tai, Wuxian and others were discussing the military situation.

After hearing Zhao Tai's plan, Wu Xian frowned slightly, "Guorui, Li Jun is capricious, and I think Li Fen is unreliable. Guorui, your plan is very good, but I am a little worried. This Li Fen has

Maybe it’s all fake and real.”

Wang Bin said: "The Duke is overly worried. Our commander-in-chief has been prepared for a long time and has an army in Pi County. Even if Li Fen wants to fake it, he doesn't have the strength."

Zhao Tai smiled and said: "Brother, don't worry, I am absolutely sure about Li Fen. Now we should discuss how to deal with the enemy troops on the north bank."

Zhao Tai indeed did not trust Li Fen, so he left Sun Li to lead the Yan navy to guard Pi County.

If Li Fen wanted to take Pi County, Sun Li's 10,000 people would be enough to withstand Li Fen's attack.

In addition, Zhao Tai placed a senior spy next to Li Fen. He knew Li Jun's movements clearly, and he could know any move Li Fen made, so there was no need to worry about Li Fen.

Seeing that Zhao Tai was confident, Wu Xian stopped worrying about whether Li Fen was reliable and started thinking about how to deal with the Mongolian army on the north bank.

But after thinking about it, he smiled and said, "Guorui, you have already made a plan, so just act according to your plan."

Zhao Tai smiled and said: "Okay, then when Li Fen launches an attack on Pizhou, we will pretend to retreat. The Mongolian army on the north bank will definitely pursue them when they see this. Then we will ambush them halfway and try to wipe out Zhang Rou and Shi Tianze's men."

Wu Xian smiled and said, "That Zhang Rou and Shi Tianze were defeated miserably in Xuzhou. They fled back to Hebei and finally managed to recruit these people, but Guorui you killed them again. The two of them are probably going to be angry to death!"

"Hahaha~" Zhao Tai raised his head and laughed, "This is the effect I want. I must let them know that following Mongolia against me will not benefit them."

Ten days later, Li Fen led his subordinates and finally crossed Mengshan Mountain and arrived in Linyi. Then they went south along the Yishui River and headed straight for Pi County.

The Mongolian army was approaching Pizhou, and Sun Li, the acting commander of Yanjun in Zhongyi Town who was stationed in Pizhou, received the news and immediately ordered 10,000 troops to stop the attack.

The two armies met in Aishan. As soon as the two sides engaged in battle, Sun Li suddenly retreated. Li Fen took the opportunity to use his troops to cover up the attack and captured Sun Li's camp.

In Yan Haijun's camp, Sergeant Li counted the seizures. Li Fen proudly rode on his horse and ordered his subordinates, "Immediately report to the marshal of the capital that our troops defeated the blocking enemies in Aishan, killed thousands, and seized all the baggage.

Capture an enemy camp."

"Yes!" The subordinates immediately clasped their fists, and not long after, a group of cavalry galloped north to report the victory.

At this time, Yan Haijun retreated all the way, and Li Fen, who had captured the camp, did not rest. He pursued with his army and went straight to Pizhou.

The mountains of supplies outside the city were seized by Li Fen because they had no time to transport them away. Li Jun's morale was immediately boosted.
