"The reason why Pingjiang is called Pingjiang is that it is calm and calm. However, the water surface of Pingjiang is wide and there are many places to cross the river. However, it is too difficult to cross safely. There are enemy troops and horses patrolling along both sides of the river. It is difficult to handle." Zhang Songzhi looked at the only map.
Shaking his head, it was obvious that he was not bad at martial arts, but it seemed a bit difficult to lead an army. He was obviously a pioneer general who could charge into battle.
"If you don't have any good suggestions, let me tell you, go north and go all the way upstream from Pingjiang River. Although we have to take a detour, the water upstream is shallow. We can go directly through the water. The only thing we have to do is to let the enemy
You might have thought that it would be possible to intercept it here, here, or these two places."
"The young master has a good idea. This way we can avoid big trouble. Although the enemy will block us, we are all cavalry. The first few places are all plains. If we can't block them, there will be some trouble in the end."
Zhang Songzhi nodded immediately.
"It is estimated that there is a 70% chance of success if we take this path, but in the end the remaining people will definitely not be more than half, or even less than a third." At this time, Lin Haoming spoke.
"Commander Ning, maybe you have an idea."
"Young Master, why do we have to run away all the way?" Lin Haoming suddenly asked.
Hearing this, everyone was shocked and looked at Lin Haoming one by one, wondering what he was going to say.
"Commander Ning, do you want to attack Ning'an County?" Sun Zan directly revealed Lin Haoming's thoughts.
When Lin Haoming heard this, he was shocked. This little guy's mind was really not simple. He could actually guess it. So he came over with a smile and said: "Ning'an County experienced a battle not long ago. Although it was a defensive defense after our defeat,
The battle for the city was fierce, and within a few days Ning'an County was reduced to ruins. I heard before that the city walls of Ning'an County collapsed, and if they collapsed, they would not be able to stop the cavalry."
"Commander Ning, you are too courageous. Although Ning'an County is not big, it has the best ferry crossing the Pingjiang River. It was for our people to cross the river smoothly that we fought a war. Now there is a lot of stockpiles here.
To transport supplies across the river, the garrison must be at least 3,000 strong."
"It's just these supplies that we need to fight. As for the three thousand defenders, there were two thousand who escorted us before. General Liu was not defeated easily. There were no more than thirty casualties on his side." Lin Haoming said.
"This is different. Those are not elites."
"Are the people who guard the supplies in the county the elite? No, right? Let's go in, grab some food and grass that we can carry with us, then light a fire and run away." Lin Haoming signaled.
"Where to run?" Liu Zhenshan asked.
"Continue to sweep all the way south." Lin Haoming said.
"If we continue our sweep all the way, we won't be able to come back. Where can we go in the end, to Huanglang Mountain?" Liu Zhenshan shook his head.
But at this moment, Sun Zan smiled and nodded: "That's right, it's Huanglang Mountain. Go to Huanglang Mountain. General Liu, let's go to Huanglang Mountain."
"Young Master, how can you say this? Where is Huanglang Mountain? At the junction of Yue State, Chu State, and Wei State, there are thousands of tigers and leopards in Huanglang Mountain for 1,300 miles, and in the depths is a barbaric and smoky land. Even if
People from Chu are not willing to go in easily." Liu Zhenshan shook his head.
"General Liu, the best thing for me to do now is to go there." Lin Haoming sighed.
"Ning Zhongying, what do you mean?" Liu Zhenshan was furious.
"General Liu, what Commander Ning said is actually correct. Although there are still a few people in the Duke's Palace at Zhenbeihou, they are all infantry. You have brought out the most elite 800 cavalry. This is against military orders.
Yes, after you go back, Wei Tong will kill you, and the only way to save you is for me to surrender and hand over all the troops, including these eight hundred cavalry, to Wei Tong. I asked others to go with me before, and I also gave you
I can offer my help when the time comes. After all, I have no place to go. As for attacking Ning'an County, I have always had this idea in my mind, but even if I say it, no one will respond. I didn't expect you, Commander Ning, to do it.
I saw it." After Sun Zan finished speaking, he directly thanked Lin Haoming with his hands.
"So, if you still want to go to Zhenbeihou, you can leave quietly. This is much safer than eight hundred of us riding together. Once we hit Ning'an County, we will have a greater chance of crossing the river." Lin Haoming
indicated.
"Young Master, if you really decide to go there, I, Zhang Songzhi, will not be able to accompany you, but I will also remember General Liu's life-saving grace." Zhang Songzhi stood up and saluted Sun Zan.
Seeing him like this, Lin Haoming also stood up and said: "Young Master, I also want to cross the river."
"Commander Ning, you made the suggestion, why don't you follow it?" Sun Zan said in shock.
Lin Haoming sighed: "My young master saved my life, so I want to repay this kindness. I was adopted by Uncle Zhongyong's Mansion when I was a child. Now all my skills are given by Uncle Zhongyong's Mansion. I remember this kindness. I and my fifth son
We are about the same age, we grew up together, we can barely be considered classmates, and we cannot let go of this relationship, so I ask my young master to understand."
"Commander Ning is a great talent. You have paid attention to me. If..."
"Young Master, don't worry. I am the only one who knows here. Commander Ning proposed going south. If I don't tell others, others will not know about it. It will just be regarded as the attention of the Young Master." Zhang Songzhi stated again.
"Commander Ning, I know it is useless to say anything else. Now I am not qualified to speak big words, but I still want to say that if one day I am still alive, I will repay you." After Sun Zan finished speaking, he cupped his hand towards Lin Haoming again.
Lin Haoming also returned the gift, and then left with Zhang Songzhi to ask the remaining people whether they wanted to leave or stay.
It was really dangerous to go south, and it was not that easy to cross the river now, so nearly half of the people decided to escape directly and dispersed among the people. Only about thirty people were left and were willing to cross the river with them. Fortunately, more than thirty people were all masters.
This makes crossing the river easier.
When it was almost dawn, everyone separated and left.
Lin Haoming and Zhang Songzhi led more than thirty people, abandoned their horses and headed for the river on foot.
After waiting for a day, the next night, a fire broke out in Ning'an County, and chaos broke out all along the river. Taking advantage of the chaos, the two men showed off their power and took the lead in killing a group of people. They put on military uniforms and disguised themselves as enemy soldiers. At night, they secretly killed
Cross the Pingjiang River.
Among the more than thirty people, there were several people who were originally from Zhenbeihou's residence in the capital and were relatively familiar with this area. They all took off their military uniforms and took the country roads to the territory controlled by Zhenbeihou.
Five days later, a group of people finally arrived at the junction of the two sides and met a group of patrol soldiers belonging to the Marquis of Zhenbei. As a result, this group could not bear a few people from the Marquis's mansion, so everyone was tied up again.
