As Zhang Ping'an, the commander of the Pokémon Army, issued the command of the slave army, the intense sound of war drums became rapid. Yan Cheng commanded the heavy armored cavalry to arrange in five rows of horizontal lines to start to move out. While they gently clamped the horse's belly, they urged the horses to walk forward slowly, while pulling off silver armor. With the sound of war drums getting faster and faster, the heavy armored cavalry's war horses entered the trot to warm up the speed. When Yan Cheng's flag bearer's battle flag pressed forward, the entire cavalry team began to accelerate.

Zhang Ping'an, standing on the hill, heard a heavy horse hooves roaring in his ears. The heavy armored cavalry of the Po Nu Army burst out like a tsunami. Huge waves stirred the black mud across the embankment, opened his bloodthirsty mouth to swallow all life along the way. The remaining soldiers of the Hui army were swallowed by the black tide, leaving the ground dazzling blood. Seeing this, Zhang Ping'an frowned. It was not that the heavy armored cavalry performed poorly, but that the heavy armored cavalry was far less casualties than the musket soldiers. About a dozen heavy armored cavalry fell on the battlefield. On the other hand, the musket soldiers of the Po Nu Army basically had no casualties and also eliminated the main force of the Hui army.

Regarding the outdated military branches of heavy armored cavalry, Zhang Ping'an once again had the idea of ​​abolishing its establishment, but all this had to be considered after this war. Faced with the soldiers of the return army, Zhang Ping'an waved his hand and signaled to follow the old rules of the slave army. So, the personal barracks and mountain troops built a head of Jingguan and two corpse mountains on the battlefield. As for the important general of the return army, Ma Dezhong, who was knocked out by the heavy armored cavalry, was trampled on by other war horses and injured and captured.

Zhang Ping'an, the commander of the Pou Nu Army, had no time to interrogate Ma Dezhong on the battlefield, but Tian Peng led the mountain troops to cut off the rear and retreated. As soon as he returned to Lingzhou, he locked himself in a tent and looked at the map. This time, he wiped out Ma Dezhong's troops in the army, which was equivalent to stabbing the hornet's nest of the returning army. It would be abnormal if Ma Tengyao had no reaction. As long as Ma Tengyao had action, the opportunity for the Pou Nu Army would come.

The big tent of the General Staff of the Pool Army was busy. Gu Xinzhe walked to the coach's tent with five new maps just drawn. Hao Yidao at the door hurriedly opened the curtain. The biting cold wind blew along the wide open door, causing Zhang Ping'an to shivering. He started to curse: "You bastard Hao Yidao, let's squeak first!"

"Squeak!" Gu Xin squeaked in his mouth, making Zhang Ping'an laugh and cry.

Gu Xin handed over the new map and asked, "Boss, the State Administration just sent a notice. He said we seemed to have done something wrong."

"Tell me directly, what's wrong?" Zhang Ping'an took the map and spread it on the table, carefully observing the mountains and rivers on the map.

"According to the National Government, the head coach of the Hui army, Ma Tengyao, spread rumors that our slave army will kill Shaanxi Huihui this time. So..., the Hui army is so determined to resist." Gu Xin's attitude of wanting to speak but stops shows that Marshal Zhang's approach to Beijing Guan this time was a bit of a mistake.

"It's a big deal! Do you need to talk to me so carefully? How old you are, you can learn to be foolish in front of me. You have to learn to be heartless!" Zhang Ping'an taught Gu Xin a lesson, and his eyes never left the map.

While looking at the map, Zhang Ping'an also used charcoal pens to mark the situation of the defeated slave army and the return army on the map. When Zhang Dashen was focusing on the war, no one dared to interrupt his thoughts. Gu Xin also closed his mouth and sat beside Zhang Ping'an waiting for his further orders. After studying the map for an hour, Zhang Ping'an drew a picture in a mess. His years of experience in fighting war still made him realize a hint of the return army dynamics.

From the complicated military newspapers sent by the scouts, Zhang Ping'an discovered the main direction of the gathering of the Hui army. It was the Matouyan Fort stationed by Huang Zhi's army on the southwest side of the Po Nu Army. It is adjacent to the Yellow River to the south and the Ningxia Zhongwei Road. This strategic area is smooth and easy to attack and difficult to defend. Therefore, Huang Zhi set up his command site on a hill called Luweigou two miles east of the Yellow River. Ma Tengyao was very cunning in his use of troops. He directly pushed the main force of the Hui army to the north of the Po Nu Army, but the Hui army established three large camps on the northwest side of the Huang Zhi's army.

According to the observation of Huang Zhi's reconnaissance scout, nearly 100,000 troops came from this direction. If the Hui army had not lacked war horses, the scouts who went to reconnaissance would not have dared to get too close. The most important thing was that the scouts discovered the 5,000 cavalry of the Hui army and forced the scouts to dare to use a 100-man team to approach the Hui army camp. In Zhang Ping'an's expectation, the reunion could achieve his idea of ​​annihilation of the main force of the Hui army to the maximum extent, so he did not attack the concentrated Hui army. However, today, Scout Huang Zhi found the main force of the Hui army retreating from the Ningxia Central Guard in the south of his troops, which made Zhang Ping'an feel his strategic mistakes.

The commander of the Rebellion Army, Ma Tengyao, paid attention to the heavy military force. Every time he advanced ten miles, he would set up a camp and then advance in turn. This strategy of using troops in a converged into a group made Zhang Ping'an, a fox wolf, nowhere to whine. Then, the scouts of Liu Qingshan's troops in the Possess Army, saw the Rebellion troops all over the mountains and fields. According to the scouts' response, they estimated with their naked eyes that there were more than 500,000 people here, including men, women, young and old.

"I'm talking about a novice, go and send an order to Liu Yuhu, the deputy commander of the auxiliary soldiers, transfer 3,000 to Huang Zhi, and * also transfer 500 to Huang Zhi's army. Well, add more muskets and ammunition to Huang Zhi's army. By the way, transfer 5,000 to him. Du Yehe brings 3,000 ghost sword teams to reinforce Huang Zhi's army; order Zhao Guangming to transfer chariots to this direction; order Yang Kui to transfer 200 crossbows and 500 tiger guns to Huang Zhi's camp. Your General Staff helps Huang Zhi make a defense plan and strive to drag the main force back home here."

After saying that, Zhang Ping'an stood up and walked to the big map, took out a teaching stick from the map and pointed it at the direction of Ponucheng. "Today I issued an order: the Qiheng tribe in Rongcheng has reached 20,000 auxiliary soldiers, Pang Guang's tribe will lead 50,000 auxiliary soldiers to reinforce Guihua Wu Tianxing and Xu Zhen tribe. Order: After the army gathers, the test aircraft will move westward."

"Boss, you have transferred most of the main force of the Ponu Army in the direction of Ponu City. Are you not afraid of something happening to the Jurchen side?"

"What are you worried about? Sister Yang has a * in her artillery team. This thing is just a bad transportation disadvantage. In addition, it is a defensive weapon. Ten thousand * can consume at least 200,000 Jurchens. The old slave will not be so bold to fill in the Jurchens in Ponu City! But what you said makes sense, then order Lu Jiandou to be on guard strictly. The city gate curfew will be closed when it gets dark. There are Lu Jiandou inside and Zhang Li outside, and there are tens of thousands of reserve forces in the Golden Wolf Camp. We are still sure to persist until we withdraw our troops."

"If we are in a stalemate with the Hui army in the southwest of Lingzhou and the Hui army in the city is going to leave the city to respond, boss, how can we deal with it?"

"We have to wait for them to come out. We will attack Lingzhou City the day after tomorrow! First, use the decisive chariot to explode the city wall, then use * and muskets to consume the city's return troops, and then destroy the return troops in the city and then siege them. Tell me, how can I worry about my slave army?"

Speaking of this, Zhang Ping'an flipped over a new picture and drew a line of defense in the camp where the Slave-Breaking Army besieged Lingzhou. "We must learn from our mistakes and learn from Pingliang Pinglu Institute. The lessons of Pingliang Pinglu Institute cannot happen again. At night, you must let the scouts find out whether there are pits outside Lingzhou. If so, fill it up. This attack is the responsibility of you, the little man. The direction is set to the south of Lingzhou City, ignore the Lingzhou City Gate. By the way, let Liu Chong's troops and Zhang Tong's troops exchange defenses!" Gu Xin did not refuse to take charge of the command this time. He felt that this was a rare opportunity to be responsible for command, and he still didn't know whether he could command a battle alone in the future.

After Zhang Ping'an issued a war order to the General Staff, Lingzhou became busy. In order to conceal the fact that the Possess Army guessed that the main attack area of ​​the Return Army, Hu Ming's army, at the forefront of the battlefield, all strengthened the construction of fortifications. In particular, Huang Zhi's army, with the help of the General Staff, built nearly three defensive areas in the distance, middle and middle. In view of the characteristics of Ma Tengyao's return army being good at using fire attacks, Hu Ming and Huang Zhi camp made nearly 100,000 ice bombs.

Just as the Ponu Army and the Hui army were preparing for war, the Hui army commander Ma Tengyao came to the Lingzhou front line. He was full of grief and angry eyes. After receiving the scouts, he wiped out all the troops of Ma Dezhong, who had retreated from the Ningxia defender. The Ponu Army built the heads of the Hui army into Jingguan and the mountain of corpses. The general commander Ma Dezhong disappeared. According to the description of the escaped Hui army's remaining soldiers, Zhang Ping'an, the commander of the Ponu Army, personally led the troops and wiped out Ma Dezhong's troops in just three hours. The Ponu Army made a stunning appearance and gave the Hui army a warning.

As soon as Ma Tengyao arrived at the army camp, he climbed up a mountain controlled by the Hui army in the northwest of Huang Zhi's army in the Ponu Army and looked at the Ponu Army camp. As he looked at Ma Tengyao's face turned pale. Zhang Ping'an, the commander of the Ponu Army on the opposite side, deserved to be the title of Grassland Fox Wolf. Judging from the formation of the Ponu Army, the Grassland Fox Wolf guessed the direction of the Hui army's attack. If the Hui army led by him could not defeat the Ponu Army in a short period of time, there would be no suspense in the outcome of the war.

Nowadays, the Hui army seems to be strong, but only he, the commander, knows that the food for the Hui army is not enough. This year, there is no drought or rain in Ningxia, and the land is generally poor. Millions of people have to stutter and eat. The food and grass collected by the Hui army is only enough for one month. The opposite Ponu Army has the support of the Ming Dynasty court, so there will definitely be no problem with the food and grass. Therefore, the Hui army led by Ma Tengyao cannot be delayed and must be broken with the Ponu Army in a short time. Once the war is in a stalemate, there is no way out for the Hui army. Only by defeating the evil wolf Ponu Army on the grassland can the return army attack the Guanzhong Plain and run there to eat.

But the densely packed trenches and trenches on the opposite side of the Ponu Army indicate that the opponent of the Hui army is not a good master. Although the Ponu Army did not build a village wall. However, outside the several low walls with distinct layers of irregular layers are trenches that are ten feet deep, and several layers of three feet high white triangle ice piles hinder the passage of shield vehicles. The Ponu Army relies on three hills about ten feet high to form a solid defense zone. Another Ponu Army camp five miles away becomes a horn with it, and can provide rapid reinforcements here.

Ma Tengyao knew very well that although Zhang Ping'an, the commander of the Po Slave Army on the opposite side, was much younger than him, he was definitely more experienced in fighting experience. Therefore, when preparing for combat, Ma Tengyao dared not be careless. He had to use all his strength to break the solid defense line of the Po Slave Army. What Ma Tengyao did not expect was that when he was still preparing to attack the Po Slave Army's western defense line, his opponent Zhang Ping'an, the grassland fox wolf, launched an attack in advance.
