I’m The King Chapter 627: : Cross the river?

Three thousand cavalry stood by the Yishui River. Zhou Changshou reined in his horse and stood on the embankment. He looked at the pontoon bridge in front of him, but he did not give the order to cross the river.

This pontoon bridge was newly built after Zhao Guo regained control of the whole city, Weicheng and other five cities. In name, it was to facilitate business exchanges and personnel exchanges between the two sides of the strait, but in fact, at that time, Jiang Xinliang already had the intention to vote for Zhao. The bridge was built so that Zhao Jun could quickly cross the Yishui River and enter Yuyang County when necessary.

The bridge is in front of him, and Yuyang County seems to be in his hands, but Zhou Changshou hesitated at this critical moment.

Although the generals around were anxious, none of them spoke out. They just focused their eyes on him. Taking Yuyang County, the last army of Yan State that can fight will no longer exist. Although Tan Feng has tried his best to train a new army in the past few years, this army is currently restrained by Qi State. Another strong army conquers the Eastern Army. I am afraid that Yan State will collapse early. Let alone intervene at this time, everything seems so smooth, so satisfying. But precisely because everything was too satisfactory, Zhou Changshou hesitated instead.

After following Zhao Mu for a long time, Zhou Changshou also understands that everything that looks beautiful may be wrapped with a deadly thing inside. Tan Feng is not an idiot. Once Zhao Zhuo was assassinated, Zhou Changshou would never believe it if Tan Feng was not behind him.

Yan State is weak and Zhao State is strong. At this time, Tan Feng has no reason to provoke Zhao State. If he did so desperately, it must be because he already knew Zhao State's idea of ​​attacking Yuyang County. Let Zhao Guo not take care of himself. But is that all? Zhou Changshou thought along this line of thought.

Is that all?

Could this be a huge bait, and even Jiang Xinliang is part of this bait?

The Taiwei left with ten thousand elites. All that was left to me was the 3,000 cavalry and 10,000 defenders, but the 10,000 defenders were spread across five cities, and each city only had more than 2,000 people. These three thousand cavalry.

There was great chaos in Handan, but Yuyang County, the center of the storm, was as usual, so peaceful that it was incredible.

Is Jiang Xinliang trustworthy?

If he is credible, what will Tan Feng do next?

Once I cross the river, what will happen?

Looking at the huge pontoon bridge in front of him, Zhou Changshou suddenly shivered. If, once you cross the river, the bridge suddenly disappears, what should you do?

The more he thought about it, the more horrified he became. Zhou Changshou couldn't help but think of what Zhao Mu said before he left, that he can give up before he can give up, and he can't rush forward. It was only at this moment that Zhou Changshou realized how difficult it is sometimes to be a decision maker. He was under Zhao Mu's command before, what did Zhao Mu say. He just does what he does, there are very few things that he needs to make decisions on, and even if there are, it is on the battlefield. Temporary tactical changes, but now, Zhao Mu gave him a ambiguous suggestion, how to do it. But he was needed to make up his mind, and if he got it wrong, it would cost the lives of countless people.

There will be chaos in Zhao. I must not make any mistakes here. If this is really a trap, and it is aimed at the thousands of cavalry under my command, once I fall into the trap, not only will the thousands of cavalry be lost, but the five cities of Weiwei that I have finally recaptured will also be destroyed. Can't hold it, and at this moment, the country definitely doesn't have enough strength to launch a counterattack.

Or, this is what Tan Feng wants. Tan Feng not only wanted to thwart Zhao Guo's plan to invade Yuyang, but even planned to bite back.

"General!" A general beside him reminded in a low voice, "Do you want to cross the river now?"

Zhou Changshou took a breath, a huge temptation was in front of him, if he didn't give it a try, he would never be reconciled.

"Gan Ning, you take five hundred cavalry to cross the river first, and the rest should be stationed first." Zhou Changshou ordered. "He Kailai, your tiger and leopard cavalry is too slow. I want to know the movements of the Yan army in Jiuyuan direction, the specific situation of Yuyang County, and the movements of the various units of the Yuyang County Army."

"Obey!" The two generals bowed to accept the order at the same time.

Zhao Qi started to cross the river, watching one after another cavalrymen leading their horses and walking on the undulating pontoon bridge, Zhou Changshou also heaved a sigh of relief, whether it is a mule or a horse, it must be pulled out yes.

In a small village not far from the Yishui River, Tan Feng frowned and listened to the sentry's report, and sighed, "I underestimated Zhou Changshou. This man is a fierce general under Zhao Mu's command. He is famous for his fierce fighting and dashing, but it is unexpected that when he stands alone, he has such a cautious temperament, no wonder Zhao Mu kept him."

"My lord, this person doesn't cross the river, so we just sent a small group of people to test it out, so we are a little embarrassed." If this cavalry goes deep, our arrangement will be exposed."

"Let's try again, Kou Hanfeng, go in person, meet the cavalry who crossed the river first, and tell them that I have discovered Jiang Xinliang's plot. Heading towards Yuyang County City, preparing to attack Yuyang County City, Jiang Xinliang is in danger, please General Zhou quickly cross the river to help the county city." Tan Feng said.

"Subordinates obey!" Kou Hanfeng nodded vigorously, turned around and wanted to leave.

"Han Feng!" Tan Feng suddenly stopped him, looked into his eyes, and said: "Your life is in danger if you go this time, if Zhou Changshou finds out, you will definitely not be allowed to come back, but you It is Jiang Xinliang's personal guard commander, and only you can win his trust if you go, do you understand what I mean?"

Kou Hanfeng smiled and said: "My lord, Han Feng understands, but for the sake of Dayan, Han Feng is not afraid of death, as long as I can induce Zhou Changshou to cross the river, I will be honored even though I die."

Tan Feng nodded, "I will mobilize troops to pretend to attack Yuyang County, hoping to succeed. As soon as Zhou Changshou's cavalry crosses the river, I will ambush hundreds of Yanling Guards near the Yishui River." The elite will attack and burn the pontoon bridge. At that time, Zhou Changshou's three thousand cavalry will become the turtle of the Weng. If these three thousand cavalry are destroyed, the defenders stationed in the five cities of Weiwei will be nothing to worry about. We can wave the soldiers of Yuyang County and Jiuyuan County and take these homelands back into the arms of our Great Yan again. Hey, there will be chaos in Zhao's country. I can’t take it back.”

"Don't worry, my lord, Han Feng will definitely live up to his mission!" Kou Hanfeng gave a deep bow, turned around and strode away.

One day later, Zhou Changshou saw Kou Hanfeng at Zhao Jun's camp on the banks of the Yishui River. Kou Hanfeng first found Gan Ning's troops who had crossed the river, and then Gan Ning sent people to accompany him to find Zhou Changshou.

"General Zhou, please save our county guard!" Upon seeing Zhou Changshou, Kou Hanfeng, who was in a state of embarrassment and emaciated, immediately fell to the ground, "Our county guard is about to lose his hold."

"Get up and talk, let's talk in detail." Zhou Changshou helped Kou Hanfeng up, and said gently, "What happened to Governor Jiang?"

Kou Hanfeng said sadly: "General Zhou, everything was going according to the plan, but for some reason, Tan Feng got wind of it and went to Yuyang County in person to instigate several generals under the command of the county guard, General Lianchengmen. Chen Gong was also pulled over by him. If the county guard hadn't reacted quickly, even if Chen Gong had been beheaded, the city of Yuxu County would have been lost, but even so, the county city would have been in chaos. There was a mutiny in the army. Although it was suppressed, it went to five out of ten. Now, under the command of Tan Feng, several county soldiers stationed abroad have approached the county city. Once Tan Feng starts to attack, the county city will be in danger. The general is in danger, please send troops quickly to rescue the county guard, everyone in Yuyang County is grateful."

"So Tan Feng came to Yuyang County in person!" Zhou Changshou exclaimed, "I'm crossing the river now, is there still time?"

"In time, under the general's command, the iron cavalry Wushuang will cross the Yishui River and go all out to help. At most one day, they will be able to reach the county. typical.

"What's going on with the Yan army at Jiuyuan?" Zhou Changshou asked.

"Jiuyuan County soldiers should also be moving to Yuyang County now." Kou Hanfeng said: "Although we are trapped in the city and don't know the details, Tan Feng will definitely mobilize Jiuyuan County soldiers to strengthen the battle against Yuyang County. The attack on the county city, General Zhou, now we are fighting for time, if the Jiuyang County soldiers arrive first, the county city will definitely not be able to defend."

"Okay!" Zhou Changshou stood up abruptly, "General Kou, you go back first and tell Jiang Junshou that our troops will cross the river immediately to help Yuyang County City, and it will take at most one day to arrive. You let him do whatever he wants." Keep going."

"The general agreed to cross the river?" Kou Hanfeng was overjoyed.

"Of course, Jiang Junshou wants to return to Da Zhao with all his heart. How can I, a soldier of Da Zhao, colden the heart of Jiang Junshou. Come on, prepare two horses for General Kou, and let General Kou go back and report the letter first. Get ready to cross the river now!"

"Here!" Zhao Jun's generals echoed like thunder from all around.

Kou Hanfeng was overjoyed, and gave a deep bow to Zhou Changshou, "Han Feng thanked General Zhou Dayi on behalf of the county guard~IndoMTL.com~ So Han Feng went back to report first."

"General Kou please!" Zhou Changshou said with a smile.

Kou Hanfeng rode on the war horse that Zhao Jun gave him, stepped on the pontoon bridge, and walked away across the river. Looking at Kou Hanfeng's back, the smile on Zhou Changshou's face gradually disappeared.

"Come here, send an order to General Gan Ning to come back immediately." Zhou Changshou said coldly. "Son Tan Feng, how dare you bully me like this, am I an idiot?"

General Yi Ying, who was preparing his fists, was surprised when he heard Zhou Changshou's order, "General, is the river over? Why?"

Zhou Changshou sneered, "Cross the river? I'm afraid Tan Feng has dug a big hole for me and is waiting for me to jump into it? Kou Hanfeng said that he came all the way from Yuyang County, but what do you think? Has time passed? Secondly, if he galloped all the way like this, if he really came from Yuyang County, the horse under his crotch would have been abandoned long ago, but look, does that horse look like it will be abandoned?"

The crowd turned their heads and looked at the war horse that Kou Hanfeng was riding, gnawing on the grass leisurely. (To be continued..)
