In the city of Shanzhou, Geng Zhongming saw Hong Chengchou off and couldn't help feeling a little nervous.

Mandahai comforted: "All parties must fight for Luoyang. If Wu Sangui does not accept the conditions, he either retreats or attacks. Now, Zhao Zamao is busy pacifying the Nanjing Incident and has no time to look west. Wu Sangui must take this opportunity to take over Luoyang. Therefore, it is impossible to retreat. If he disagrees, he is very likely to launch an attack and use force to force us to surrender."

Geng Zhongming nodded slightly and nodded, "That's the reason."

Mandahai then said: "If Wu Sangui launches an attack, it means that in Wu Sangui's opinion, we are not worth the price. If we defect to Wu Sangui, we will not have a status in the future. Therefore, only by hitting the head-on and letting Wu Sangui see our strength will he accept our conditions, and we will be respected in Zhou State in the future."

Geng Zhongming took a deep breath, "Then pass the order and order the front-line troops to defend closely! If the Zhou army attacks, counterattack immediately, let Wu Sangui know that we are not from Nibaba!"

The next morning, Geng Zhongming was still worried and came to the Qing army camp on the Hongnongjian front line in person.

Hongnongjian is a tributary of the Yellow River originating from the eastern foot of the Qinling Mountains. It is located west of Shanzhou and east of the old Hangu Pass.

At present, the main force of the Zhou army is stationed on the west bank of Hongnongjian, while the Qing army is deploying defenses on the east bank.

At this time, Geng Zhongming, Mandahai and others came to the front-line camp. In the camp, a group of Qing army generals were in the sand table and performed deductions.

"What's going on on the other side?" Geng Zhongming came in from outside surrounded by everyone.

"Report to the prince, the rafts on the opposite side began to be built. It seemed that he was preparing to cross the river to attack." A Qing army said loudly.

Geng Zhongming nodded slightly, "Last time, Wu Sangui took some advantage, I really think I am easy to bully! This time I must hit the head-on, let Wu Sangui know that he is powerful!"

Mandahai said, "Arrogant soldiers will be defeated! We have occupied the geographical advantage, and our Qing Dynasty has been defeated for so long, so it is time to win."

On the other side, in the Zhou army camp, many generals and schools gathered in Wu Sangui's big tent to discuss countermeasures.

In the middle of the tent, there is a sand table, and the terrain of Shaanxi and Luoyang is unobstructed.

At this time, Wu Sangui said to everyone, "The Lord King sent the Prime Minister to recruit surrender, but Geng Zhongming and others were unwilling to surrender easily, and they also wanted to continue to be the king with the Lord."

In the tent, the prime minister of Xia, Wu Guozhu, Wang Pingfan and other powerful generals of the Zhou army all showed contempt.

Wu Sangui glanced at the generals of his subordinates, raised his voice, and said loudly: "You and others have been fighting with the orphan king for many years and have made many military achievements. They have not yet been named kings. A group of defeated soldiers and generals, but they are still in lingering. Why should we be the king of our Great Zhou?"

"Destroy them!" Wang Pingfan and others shouted.

"Yes, let's get rid of the dog!"

The Zhou army generals had just finished the Western Expedition and defeated more than 100,000 Mongolian cavalry in the desert and west, and defeated the powerful Western Regions Yarkand to bow down and surrender to the surrender. The morale was strong, and everyone was angry when they heard the words.

The generals fought south and north, and made contributions to the Han Ma Ma for the State of Zhou. However, the position of Bohou, the slag of the Qing Dynasty, and the defeated generals who had been defeated repeatedly, were also embarrassed to lick their big faces and continue to be princes?

Wu Sangui nodded with satisfaction, then raised his hand and yelled loudly, "Okay! Since the Qing dog is not aware of the situation, then the Lone King will give them some color!"

Wu Sangui paused, "Each division is ready to make dinner tomorrow, and launch an attack after dawn to tear open Qinggou's Hongnongjian defense line for the orphan king! Let Qinggou recognize the reality and know the power of my Great Zhou soldiers!"

"Roar! Roar, roar, roar!" Many Zhou army generals all roared lowly, like excited beasts.

Wu Sangui laughed and said, "This time Gu Fei beat Qing dog to shit!"

On the fifth day of the next day, the Zhou army camp came alive. After a full meal, the Zhou army soldiers formed a formation on the west bank of Hongnongjian according to their duties.

However, due to the terrain, the Zhou army was unable to deploy, so Wu Sangui only selected 10,000 troops to join the war.

In the narrow and long area of ​​Hongnongjian, the front can only accommodate so many soldiers and horses. If there are too many, they can only watch the show in the back, and it will not play any role.

Wu Sangui did not take advantage of this battle. Geng Zhongming and others held more than 100,000 yuan in their own hands. He even bargained. If he relied solely on strategies to win, Geng Zhongming and others might not be convinced.

Although when he left Tongguan, Wu Sangui followed Hong Chengchou's suggestion and asked Zhou general Zhao Liangdong to lead 10,000 troops as a side army, to go to Luonan and follow Luoshui to fight to Luoyang, Wu Sangui still decided to conquer Geng Zhongming and others in Shanzhou.

Ten thousand Zhou troops were arranged in an army formation. After breakfast, the soldiers were full of strength and prepared to call Qinggou from the other side to look good.

At this time, officers from various battalions stood in front of the military formation and cheered their subordinates, while Wu Sangui was wearing golden armor and riding a tall horse, wandering around the various formations.

"Long live the king!"

Wherever Wu Sangui passed, the soldiers of Zhou raised their weapons and cheered loudly.

Although Wu Sangui is only the King of Zhou now, from the perspective of Zhou, Wu Sangui is the emperor of Zhou, and it will be a matter of time before he can become emperor.

At this time, Wu Sangui wandered in various formations and kept raising the horse whip to respond to it to inspire morale.

Behind the Qing army's defense line on the other side, Geng Zhongming saw the momentum of Zhou's army through the Qianli Miles Miles, and couldn't help but be secretly shocked, "Since this slave of the three surnames already has such prestige!"

When Wu Sangui surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, his strength was similar to Geng Zhongming and others, but now he has widened a huge gap.

Mandahai said coldly: "King Huaishun, don't be ambitious to others and destroy your own power! Since the battle is about to start, we must attack Wu Sangui in this battle to obtain a good condition!"

At this time, Wu Sangui wandered through each formation and returned to the Central Army's Daqin. The sky was already bright.

"King, give the order! I will kill you across the river and destroy the Qing dog on the other side, and let the king have lunch in Shanzhou City!" The mighty general Wang Pingfan was already impatient.

Wu Sangui sneered, "What's the hurry?"

After saying that, Wu Sangui turned his head and asked, "Are the artillery ready?"

"Report to the king, the artillery team is in place!" Wang Yongzhen said loudly with his fists.

Wu Sangui then said arrogantly: "Send the cannon team to destroy Geng Zhongming's river beach defense line for me. The more close the cannon can push, the more close the cannon can be pushed, the more aimed at the Lone King, bombard the three rounds first, and open the way for the selection camp."

Wang Pingfan said: "King, the opposite side is just a native chicken and a tile dog, so how can I do this? The soldiers of the Selected Front Camp are all elite soldiers in a hundred battles. I took the lead in charge and broke the Qing dog on the opposite side in half an hour."

Wu Sangui smiled and said, "The elite selection of the striker cannot be easily damaged. The artillery covers the bombardment, which is also to show Geng Zhongming the strength of my Great Zhou, and at the same time let them know that this world is not only Zhao Zamao's firearm, but my Great Zhou is also powerful!"
