    Knowing that Liu Cong, the King of Han Dynasty, was coming in person, Huang Zhong and Cheng Gongying had already found a place to live in Hongnong City. It was very spacious, with a hall and a study room, and they changed the hall into the lobby of the Marshal's Mansion, with several maps hanging in the middle.

    Liu Cong is here not only to command the battle between the Luoyang Corps and Xu Huang, but also to keep an eye on other aspects of the battle.

    After taking a short rest, Liu Cong summoned Huang Zhong and Cheng Gongying to discuss the war.

    "Uncle Wen, how many troops and horses are there in Bingzhou? Is there any movement in Xu Huang recently?" Liu Cong asked Cheng Gongying.

    "My lord, Xu Huang in Bingzhou used to have an army of 50,000. Most of these soldiers and horses are veterans of hundreds of battles and are very powerful. This year, 10,000 new soldiers have been trained. In addition, when Li Dian came, he brought 10,000 soldiers and horses, so there are 10,000 new soldiers and horses in total.  An army of seventy thousand!¡±

    "Li Dian also came to Bingzhou?"

    "Perhaps Cao Cao felt that Xu Huang's generals were too young, so he sent Li Dian as his deputy general."

    "Who are the generals under Xu Huang's command?"

    "There are Wenji, Xu Yi, Dianman, Zang Shun, Du Ji and so on!"

    "Oh?" Liu Cong nodded. Except for the two veterans Wen Ji and Du Ji, the others were indeed young people.  Xu Yi was the son of Xu Chu, Dian Man was the son of Dian Wei, and Zang Shun was the son of Zang Ba. They were all in their twenties.

    "Xu Huang's army is now stationed at Huguan and has no rush to march. His subordinates thought he was sending a surprise force to raid Mengjin or Xiaopingjin."

    "It seems that Uncle Wen has already thought of it and should be prepared."

    "Ma Su and Niu Jin each led five thousand soldiers and horses to guard Mengjin and Xiaopingjin. The water level of the Yellow River has risen recently. Even if they bring a ferry, it will not be easy to cross the river, so there is no need to worry!"

    "If Mengjin and Xiaopingjin fail to attack, Xu Huang will have no choice but to attack Hongnong! We just wait here!"

    "My lord is wise!"

    In Huguan, in Xu Huang's handsome tent, Xu Huang, Liu Ye, and Li Dian were also looking at the map and thinking about it, but the expressions on their faces were not nervous, they were all relaxed.

    At this time, a soldier brought a piece of information and handed it to Xu Huang.  After Xu Huang read it, a smile appeared on his lips.

    ¡°Zi Yang¡¯s guess was indeed right, Liu Cong came to Hongnong!¡±

    "Wei Yan of the Central Plains Corps is brave and resourceful, Pang Tong is unparalleled in wit, and Liu Cong, the king of Han, can rest assured. Deng Ai of the Kwantung Corps, although young, has already shown his talents, and Liu Cong, the king of Han, is also assured. Liangzhou Corps is known as the Ten  An army of ten thousand marched to Yanzhou. Zhao Yun and Ma Chao were both enemies of ten thousand. Zhuge Liang and Li Yan showed their talents outside Xiping City. How could Liu Cong, the king of Han, not be worried? Only the Luoyang Corps, Huang Zhong was brave but without any plan.  Cheng Gongying has not experienced many battles, so Liu Cong, the king of Han, must be worried!" Liu Ye also explained with a smile.  He was also a clan member of the Han Dynasty. Although he joined Cao Cao, he still respected Liu Cong based on his title.

    "It seems that our battle with Huang Zhong and Cheng Gongying is actually a battle with Han Wang Liu Cong!" Li Dian looked a little serious at this time, "Gongming, Ziyang, you said that Liu Cong is here, our strategy can still be  Is it possible? Liu Cong must be the best at making surprise moves!"

    "Ha" Xu Huang laughed a few times after hearing this, "Don't worry Mancheng. No matter how good Liu Cong is at making surprise attacks, he can't think of anything this time. Zi Yang and I have been discussing this plan for a long time. To ensure that it is foolproof, we have repeatedly discussed it.  I have deduced it. Unless Liu Cong is a god, no one would have thought of it!"

    "Well" Li Dian nodded, "When I first heard about this plan, I was shocked. It's really hard to imagine, but after thinking about it carefully, it turns out to be extremely wonderful!"

    "Gongming, we still have to take precautions. It is not difficult to hide this plan from Huang Zhong and Cheng Gongying, but Liu Cong, the King of Han"

    "The King of Han, Liu Cong, is also a human being. He is not a god, let alone a destiny!" Xu Huang's tone was firm.

    "Then are we going to invade Hongnong now?" Li Dian asked.

    "We will advance our troops when the news comes from Xu Yi and Dianman!"

    "good!"

    Xu Yi and Dianman led five thousand troops and some ferries and quietly arrived at Mengjin Ferry.

    After passing Mengjin Ferry, you will reach Beimang Mountain, and after passing Beimang Mountain, you will reach Luoyang City.  From Beimang Mountain, you can see the North Palace of Luoyang City.

    Looking at the rolling Yellow River and the prepared Han soldiers on the other side of the river, Xu Yi and Dianman looked at each other, both in a daze.

    "Listen, Wei army thieves, this general has already made preparations. This Yellow River is your burial place!" Ma Di, riding on a war horse, shouted loudly across the bank with a big gun in his hand.

    ¡°CodeMan, the Han army has been prepared for a long time, what should we do?  "Xu Yi looked troubled.

    "The Mengjin Ferry is one of the eight passes in Luoyang. The Han army will be heavily guarded at any time. If we want to pass, we must attack by force. Otherwise, how can we give orders to General Xu?" Although Dianman knew that they could hardly attack the ferry, he still  Understand that if you don't fight and just retreat, you are disobeying military orders.

    "Okay!" Xu Yi became more bloody after hearing Dianman's words, "Let the ferry go and rush over!"

    The ferries were put into the water. The boats were very small. There were six people on each boat, including two boatmen and four soldiers.  The soldiers all carried swords and guns, carried bows and arrows on their backs, and carried shields.  Hundreds of ferries lined up and began rowing toward the other side.

    The war drums were beating, and the shouts of killing were intertwined with the roar of the Yellow River.  This time to attack Mengjin, Cao Jun had obviously made very sufficient preparations.

    When the ferry crossed the center of the river, Ma Su ordered the arrows to be fired.

    Dense arrows rained down like a torrential rain. Although Cao¡¯s soldiers held thick shields, some people were still hit by arrows and fell into the water.

    The second group of soldiers also had hundreds of boats and began to rush to the other side.

    These boats are very light and can be lifted by six soldiers during the march. This time, the Wei army prepared a total of more than 300 ferries.

    Finally, they were almost on the other side. The soldiers of the Wei army jumped out of the boat, waded through knee-deep floods, and rushed towards the other side with their shields raised.  But when they run, some parts of their bodies are always exposed.  At this time, the Han army's crossbowmen replaced their bows and arrows with hand-held repeating crossbows, which were both dexterous and accurate. Rows of Wei army soldiers were shot into the river, and their bodies were slowly washed away by the flood.

    "Hurry up!" Xu Yi saw that the soldiers had rushed to the other side without paying much, so he shouted, and the third team of ferries began to sail rapidly down the other side.

    Ma Su watched more and more Wei soldiers rushing to the river bank. He did not have the slightest worry on his face, but showed a sneer.

    ¡°Throw a flying thunder and blow up the Wei army bandits for me!¡± Ma Su shouted violently.

    At this time, dozens of Han soldiers were seen rushing over from a distance, holding flying thunderbolts that were emitting white smoke. When they reached the river, they threw them out almost at the same time.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
