Shortly after fifteen stallions were replaced by a plan to replace them with pillars, Feng Yi and several of their confidants followed Liu Zheng out of the military camp and rode their horses to the northwest.

Feng Yi was secretly surprised and wondered what Liu Jing was going to do at this time

There is also the boy in front of me. Although he was not riding a horse, he ran like a flying person. He was able to compare with a war horse. I heard from Cao Yun that this person was the most powerful scout in the Jiangxia Army. It seems that he is indeed well-deserved.

"Where are we going?" After walking for more than ten miles, Feng Yi finally couldn't help asking.

Liu Zheng didn't ask questions and answers. He jumped gently, jumped onto a big tree, stared around for a moment, pointed to the west, "just in front"

Everyone walked west for several miles, and a hidden little appeared in front of them. At this moment, a whistle sounded, and dozens of sentries stopped them, surrounded them, raised their crossbows and pointed them at them, shouting: "Who are you?"

Liu Zheng bowed forward, took out a command arrow, and smiled and said, "It's me, I'll look for General Wei."1

The Jiangxia army knew him and there were command arrows. The sentry collected the crossbow arrows and led them into the depths of the woods. Soon, the group saw the small side of the army filled with soldiers resting.

Not far away, there was a small tent in an open space. Everyone came to the small tent. The sentry went in to report and soon came out and said, "General Wei invites you in."

Feng Yi entered the small tent. The light in the small tent was dim. There was a table in the middle, and a map was laid on the table. A burly general was carefully checking the map. Feng Yi knew that the person in front of him was Wei Yan, the general under Liu Jing. He stepped forward and bowed and said, "See General Wei."

Wei Yan looked up at him, smiled on his face, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "We are all from Yiyang."

The two had the same accent, which immediately made Feng Yi feel kind of assassin meeting his fellow villagers in a foreign land. He also smiled and said, "I am from Huangqiao Township."

"I know, you and Cao Yun are fellow villagers, I am from Muar. If you know, it's east of Huangqiao."

"I know that when I was a child, I often went to the club every day. There was a towering tree there, known as the Tree King. I still remember it very clearly next to the blacksmith shop."

Wei Yan smiled, "That tree king is near my house. At that time, I often fought with young men from Huangqiao. We were about the same age, maybe we even fought when we were young."

"Very likely"

The two laughed together and their relationship immediately became close. Wei Yan then pulled him to the table and knocked the map on the table with his radish-like index finger, "This is Yicheng County, General Feng, I am ordered to take Yicheng County tonight."

Feng Yi, Yicheng County, was secretly shocked and said quickly: "Most of the navy soldiers' families are in Yicheng County. Once the war starts in Yicheng County, Zhang Yun may send reinforcements to come immediately."

"I know this, Shou is even more clear, so Shou asks General Feng for help."

"I"

Feng Yi was stunned, and thought about it, and he suddenly understood something.

...........

Like Chaisang County, Yicheng County is not the county gate, with only two city gates, the East City Gate and the West City Gate. The East City Gate is close to the Han River and is the main city gate of Yicheng County.

The Xicheng Gate is the auxiliary gate, which is connected by Lu and Xiangyang in the north. At the same time, the Navy Camp and Yicheng County are connected mainly through the Xicheng Gate, and it is not far apart, only ten miles away.

There were about eight defenders in Yicheng County, mainly guarding two city gates. During the day, news of the battle between the Jiangxia army and the Jingzhou army had already reached Yicheng County, making the atmosphere in Yicheng County tense.

The defense of Yicheng County is under the responsibility of a tooth general, and Cai Yi also arrived in Yicheng County when it was almost dark. He planned to stay in Yicheng County for one night and set off for Xiangyang early tomorrow morning.

The night was dark, it was early spring, and the spring was chilly, and the night wind was still a little chill, which made the defenders on the city tremble. Several soldiers muttered in a low voice, "If I had known that I had been going to the city with my bed, it would be warmer if I had wrapped myself in my body."

"It would be strange if you were dreaming and you were wrapped in a quilt to the city."

"Sleeping is good, what's going to happen now?"

"What's the matter, don't you know that the war has begun on the navy?"

"It's all my business to start a war. If you have the ability, give me more money and food."

Several soldiers were quarreling on the top of the city. At this time, a sound came from afar. Everyone stopped and their eyes turned to the outside of the city. Soon, a Jingzhou army appeared outside the city, with about a thousand people, and was a general, which was Sima Feng Yi from another department.

"Listen to the city soldiers, I am Feng Yi, another Sima of the Ministry of Justice Zhang, and come to support the county defense and open the city gate quickly."

On the duty station chief, he knew Feng Yi and hurriedly shouted: "General Feng is waiting, I will send someone to report to General Ma immediately."

A soldier ran to the city tower and rushed to report to General Ya that the general who was in charge of guarding Yicheng County was named Ma Zan, who was Zhang Yun's confidant. Tonight, due to the naval army war, he did not dare to go home, so he slept in the city tower. He had just fallen asleep before he was woken up by the soldiers.

"General Ma, report something"

"What's the matter?" Ma Zan asked viciously. He had not had a good sleep these days, and he was woken up after falling asleep easily, which made him particularly annoyed.

"A army came from the navy, saying it was to reinforce the county's defense."

Ma Zan sat up and said, "Who is leading the troops?"

"It was Feng Sima, who brought about more than a thousand people."

"Why is it him?"

Ma Zan frowned. He knew that Feng Yi and Chen Shuo were actually both Cangwu guarding Wu Ju. They were not Zhang Yun's confidants. Zhang Yun would not usually send him here, but should send Yang to come first. More importantly, Feng Yi is a Sima of another department, and he is just a tooth general, and he is half a level lower than him. Is the captain trying to let him obey Feng Yi?

Although he was a little dissatisfied and puzzled, he still put on his shoes and quickly walked to the city gate. He looked at the city. It was indeed Feng Yi, with more than a thousand soldiers following him. He asked loudly: "General Feng, there is a commander to command arrows."

Feng Yi took out a command arrow, which was a copy of the Jiangxia army. It was exactly the same as the real command arrow. Moreover, the increase of troops only requires command arrows. If it is a change of defense, not only command arrows are required, but also military talismans. Only Zhang Yun and Ma Zan know which military talisman is, so it is difficult to imitate it, so it is much easier to increase troops.

When he put down a basket on the city, Feng Yi ordered the soldiers to put the arrow into the basket and pulled it up. In fact, Ma Zan did not suspect that Feng Yi was cheating. He just didn't want Feng Yi to enter the city and become his boss, so he found various reasons to delay, but Feng Yi's arrow was completely correct, so he had no excuses.

Ma Zan laughed dryly and said, "President Feng, don't blame me, because I heard that the war on the river surface in the afternoon, so I should be stricter and just routine."

Feng Yi also smiled and said, "It's okay, the lieutenant is just worried that the Jiangxia army will attack Yicheng County, so he ordered me to increase his defense. It was supposed to be Yang Sima, but he was injured in the afternoon, so Deputy lieutenant Chen suggested that I help with the defense. General Ma is still responsible for the defense. I will only come forward when the Jiangxia army sieges the city."

Ma Zan then suddenly realized that it was Chen Shuo's suggestion. No wonder Feng Yi ignored the defense and finally felt relieved. He told the left and right: "Kaicheng"

The money was put down and the city gate was slowly opened. Although the battle status of Yicheng County was important, the strategic fulcrum was the navy, not the county town. Therefore, the county town was a little simple and had no urn city. You could directly enter the county town through the city gate.

Feng Yi watched the city gate open, and he whispered: "Enter the city."

He urged the war horses to slowly enter the county town with the soldiers. Ma Zan had already gotten off the city and greeted him at the city gate. Although he did not welcome Feng Yi's arrival in his heart, he still pretended to be a little polite on the surface and bowed and smiled: "Thank you for your hard work in Sima Feng."

Unexpectedly, Feng Yi suddenly turned against him and ordered: "Catch him."

Several soldiers around him rushed forward and pressed Ma Zan to the ground, putting a long sword on his neck. This change suddenly caught everyone off guard. The sudden change shocked everyone. Ma Zan was pressed to the ground and shouted: "Feng Yi, what's my fault for arresting me?"

"You know it in your heart"

Feng Yi raised another arrow and shouted at the defenders on the city and below, "Ma Zan, the governor of Yicheng, colluded with Cao's army, and attempted to betray the Jingzhou army. The captain had an order and was executed without mercy."

"You fart"

As soon as Ma Zan cursed, Xueliang's sword slashed fiercely. With a scream, Ma Zan's big head rolled out one foot away, and blood spurted out from his neck. Several people in the city were silent. Everyone was shocked. Was Ma Zan slaughtered like this?

Feng Yi immediately ordered, "I will take over the city defense, and all the soldiers will return to the barracks."

He secretly ordered his subordinates to capture Ma Zan's twenty confidants, and no one was allowed to let go. Soon, Wei Yan led the remaining 2,000 people into the city, took over the East City Gate, and controlled Yicheng County like an iron barrel, and no one could escape.

At this time, they got an unexpected gain. Several soldiers pushed Cai Yi, who was tied up, and reported to Wei Yan: "Report to General Wei, this man wanted to escape from the city, but was caught by his brothers, and only then did he realize that he was Cai Maozhi."

Wei Yan was stunned and then laughed, "Mr. Cai, what a great gift from your father."

Cai Yi spat with a resentment and turned his head away. He felt a little upset. He had known that he would not spend the night in Yicheng County.

Feng Yi walked forward quickly and smiled and said, "General Wei, Yicheng County is completely under control."

"good"

Wei Yan nodded, then it was time to take the next action. He immediately ordered, "Looking for help from the beacon fire."

...........

The Jingzhou naval camp was very quiet. At this time, the update had passed and most of the soldiers had fallen asleep, but Zhang Yun could not rest. Jiangxia's warships were still staring at the water camp on the river surface, wondering if they would launch an attack at night.

All kinds of worries were like a heavy weight pressing on Zhang Yun's heart, making him restless. He had already urgently wrote a letter of help and ordered people to rush to Xiangyang overnight.

Zhang Yun was restless, walked out of the tent from time to time, looking at the direction of the Yangtze River, and guessed the movements of the Jiangxia army in his heart. At this moment, a slight commotion came from beside him, which made Zhang Yun stunned. Then a soldier shouted to the north: "Capital Captain, Yicheng County beacon fire."

When Zhang Yun turned around, he saw a beacon fire lit in Yicheng County in the distance. He asked for help when he encountered danger. Zhang Yun was shocked. Is Yicheng County in danger? Why didn't Ma Zan send anyone here?

Zhang Yun was in a state of confusion. Most of the soldiers and families of the navy were in Yicheng County. If Yicheng County was lost, the attack on the morale of the army would be unimaginable, and he was so anxious that he paced back and forth.

At this moment, several sentries rushed over with an injured soldier. The injured soldier raised the Jade Leopard Sling Talisman, knelt on the ground and panted, "Report to the lieutenant, the Jiangxia army besieged Yicheng County, General Ma and Gong Cai fought to the death to defend, and they were almost unable to support him. General Ma begged the lieutenant to support him immediately."

Zhang Yun took half of the Jade Leopard military talisman, which was the military talisman he handed over to Ma Zan. He asked anxiously: "Why is Mr. Cai in Yicheng County?"

"Mr. Cai originally only had one night rest. He rushed to the morning, but unexpectedly he was surrounded in the county town. He also begged the lieutenant to support him."

Speaking of this, the soldier took out another dagger, "This is the Lord who asked me to hand it over to the lieutenant."

Zhang Yun knew this dagger, and it was indeed Cai Yi's close-fitting dagger. Cai Yi was Cai Mao's eldest, the next head of the Cai family, and his status was extraordinary. If he had any special strengths and weaknesses, Zhang Yun could not explain to Cai Mao.

Zhang Yun no longer hesitated and immediately ordered: "Start up the five thousand troops quickly."

At this time, Chen Shuo limped over and asked: "Capital, is there something wrong with Yicheng County?"

Zhang Yun nodded and said irritably, "Ma Zan sent someone to report the news. Qian Jiangxia was besieging Yicheng County, and Mr. Cai was also in the county."

Chen Shuo was shocked, "If the lieutenant, if Yicheng County is lost, the Jiangxia army escorted the military's family to cry, the morale of the army will collapse immediately. It must not be lost. It is better to lead the army to rescue."

Seeing that he had injuries on his leg, he could not ride a horse, and his head seemed to be seriously injured, he shook his head, "You can't marches in a hurry, I'd better go to rescue him yourself, you are responsible for guarding the military camp."

Chen Shuo immediately agreed, "Subordinates obey orders."

A quarter of an hour later, five thousand troops were arranged in order. Zhang Yun also rode a war horse, holding a spear in his hand, wearing armor and helmet, and staring at Yicheng County ten miles away with murderous intent. At this time, a general rushed over to report: "Report to the lieutenant, the army has been assembled."

"Strike"

Zhang Yun gave a vicious order and urged the horse to go, leading five thousand troops to rush towards Yicheng County.

Chen Shuo looked at them walking away, and a sneer appeared on his face. According to Liu Jing's plan, he was originally going to lead his troops to Yicheng County, and then pretended to be ambushed halfway and asked Zhang Yun for help. Unexpectedly, Zhang Yun was anxious and led his troops there in person. This was the best.

Chen Shuo waited for Zhang Yun's army to disappear a mile away, then his face changed and he ordered coldly: "Transfer my order, all officers above the garrison commander will come to the Central Army's large tent to discuss defense plans."

He whispered to his confidant general: "After the officer enters the tent, you can lead a thousand brothers to surround the central army's tent, and no one is allowed to escape."

"Abide by the order"
