As the night grew darker, the Black Cloud Army rested in three groups as usual.
Many old soldiers slept directly in the grass holding their spears.
The scouts were still searching for the enemy's movements in the night.
Until the next morning, there was still no attack from any army.
Under the morning light, Shi Bin retreated more than two hundred steps. The army seemed to have not slept all night, and its morale was even lower than yesterday.
He was not the only one who had trouble sleeping all night. Yao Yizhong's Qiang cavalry was even more tired, and the horse's galloping speed was not as fast as before.
Pu Hong's army in the south was quiet.
However, the news brought back by the scouts was not optimistic. The Chinese troops that Shi Bin had cleaned up the battlefield were returning one after another, and their strength was increasing.
At this moment, the war drums suddenly beat in Pu Hong's army, and five or six thousand Di troops lined up and slowly came out.
The soldiers in front, the cavalry in the back, advanced to more than a hundred steps, and then raised their large shields and spears.
The armor was in pieces, and many of the soldiers were injured and slightly tired, but their energy and morale were still there.
More than a dozen unarmed cavalrymen rushed forward vigorously, "General Charioteer and Cavalry, please ask Chief Li to speak!"
On one side is a general of chariots and cavalry, and on the other side is just a village leader, completely different.
Li Yue himself felt a little shabby. Shi Bin, Yao Yizhong, and Pu Hong were the three forces, and only Pu Hong could say a few words to him.
The key to this confrontation is Pu Hong.
Li Yue was not surprised at all when he took the initiative to invite him to talk.
More than a hundred soldiers protected Li Yue and walked to the front of the formation. The shields on the opposite side turned away and Pu Hong walked out. There were twenty or thirty people around him, lined up in a row. They were all powerful and majestic. They were obviously different from the two-crotch armor worn by the soldiers. There were several The man wears bright light armor.
The rise of the Di people is exactly the foundation that Pu Hong has laid in Fangtou in the past eighteen years. He has gathered a group of capable ministers and generals around him, and his descendants are each better than the last.
"Greetings to General Chariot and Cavalry!" Li Yue bowed his hands in greeting.
There is no way, Pu Hong has a lot of names on his body, whether orthodox or not, he is still much better than Li Yue, the empty leader of the village.
The people in the north did not care whether Pu Hong's official position belonged to Jie Zhao or Jiangdong.
It has been thirty or forty years since Yiguan crossed to the south, almost two generations ago. If it weren't for Shi Hu's perverse behavior and unpopularity, how many people would remember the Sima family's court?
"The leader of the village is very resourceful, and his military tactics are very similar to those of Wei Wu!" Pu Hong put his sword on the ground, and his strong voice came directly.
"The cavalry general is tenacious and a hero of the world!" Li Yue complimented.
Pu Hong looked up to the sky and laughed, and went straight to the point, "Now that the leader of the village has forced King Yan to retreat, why not just retreat?"
"General Chariot and Cavalry misunderstood. I came to greet King Yan sincerely, how could I be forced to retreat? It's a pity that King Yan does not understand my intentions..."
"The leader of Li Village is a wonderful man. If I suggest that King Yan send an army to cross the river from the north and go straight to Xingyang, will the leader of the village be so safe today?"
Li Yue was stunned. The Black Cloud Army was naturally not afraid of a head-on battle.
But Pu Hong's move of black tiger pulling out the heart is extremely threatening.
First, Li Nong, the nominal commander-in-chief of the beggar army, was still in the city.
Second, the Heiyun Army relied on Xingyang for its supplies.
As long as a group of troops brought Shi Bin's military order to the city, there were many rebellious people in the city to cooperate.
If they retreat ten thousand steps, even if they can't attack Xingyang, the food route will definitely be cut off. The Heiyun Army can sustain it. Will Guangzong's begging army be obedient?
Masters compete with each other, until the point is reached.
Li Yue's military threats could scare Shi Bin, but not Pu Hong.
"The leader of the village is already famous all over the world. As the saying goes, too much is too much, so how can there not be a visionary on the side of King Yan? Now the fight between your two families will only benefit others!" Pu Hong's voice became louder and louder, and his momentum became more and more powerful. More and more.
There was a quick glance and a few words of greeting the night before, but there was not much communication. Now we have a deep conversation, and it is really extraordinary.
Yesterday, Shi Bin was not caught when crossing the river, which frightened Pu Hong, and there would be no chance again in the future.
Fortunately, Pu Hong is not completely devoted to Jie Zhao, otherwise the consequences would be unpredictable.
It was precisely the various contradictions within Jie Zhao that allowed Li Yue to jump to where he is today.
"Hahaha, with your talents as a chariot and cavalry general, why should you succumb to others? How about you and I joining forces?" Li Yue said loudly.
Among all the forces in Hebei, the Beggar Army was the strongest, but with a commander like Li Nong, they did not show their due strength at all.
On the contrary, Pu Hong's men are full of talents and have strong soldiers and horses.
Of course, Li Yue just said this to test the other person's thoughts.
"How to join forces?" Pu Hong was quite interested in this proposal.
Li Yue said solemnly: "If the general starts an uprising, the Black Cloud Army will help him!"
Fangtou is only two hundred miles away from Yecheng. If we are well prepared and advance with light troops, we can reach the city in a few days.
With the current situation in which King Jie and Zhao are strong, they must be caught off guard.
Liang Du's uprising was tantamount to tearing open Jie Zhao's shell.
None of Shi Hu's disciples can turn the tide, Shi Bao is like this, and Shi Bin is like this.
A bright light flashed across Pu Hong's eyes across from him. Today is different from the past. Shi Hu is old and Jie Zhao is dying. He didn't think about it before, but now he can't think about it, so he is no longer Pu Hong.
Di Ren's strength is by no means limited to the troops in front of him.
The opposite side suddenly fell into silence. Only the morning breeze blew by, and the grass all over the mountains and fields swayed and made a rustling sound.
Li Yue waited quietly. Even if he couldn't inspire Pu Hong today, he would definitely plant a small flame in his heart.
"Hahaha……"
Pu Hong's strong laughter was blown by the wind, "Master Li, I originally thought that you were just a good general, like Li Ju, Zu Ti, Su Jun and others back then, but today it seems that you are not a thing in the pool either! "
"General, I will kill you."
After all, Pu Hong was Pu Hong and was not fooled. As long as Shi Hu was still alive, no one would move easily.
No matter how rebellious Shi Hu is, he is the only one who can mobilize the power of the whole country of Jie and Zhao.
However, Li Yue also tried his best, and he was just short of getting angry.
"Don't the village master also want to put someone on the fire? They are just mutually exclusive. We can talk about joining forces, but it is not today. Today, Fangtou is still a minister of Zhao!" Pu Hong's words actually contained an inexplicable tone. Funny…
"Well, let's talk about it another day. Today I'll give you a credit and say goodbye to the general!" Li Yue didn't say anything. How to join forces and how to form an alliance remains to be discussed.
It can only be determined based on the future situation.
This conversation gained a lot. Black Cloud Mountain is surrounded by enemies on all sides, so it would be best to have an ally.
Li Yue has always had a good impression of Di people.
Pu Hong was generous and generous. When Heiyun Mountain was short of food, they did not hesitate to help.
Huan Wen in the south is a behemoth, and the land of hundreds of miles in the Black Cloud Mountain is just a piece on his chessboard. Since it is a chess piece, of course it can be abandoned at any time.
After the meeting, Li Yue immediately ordered the troops to withdraw.
On the surface, the Black Cloud Army looked like they were being forced back by Pu Hong's army. It was a small achievement for Pu Hong to give Shi Bin an explanation.
As long as the Black Cloud Army holds on in front, Shi Bin will definitely continue to force Pu Hong to fight.
At this time, Yao Yizhong came with his troops, but seeing that there was no fighting between the two sides, he still did not dare to act rashly and watched the Heiyun army cross the river.
Liang Du rebelled, and Li Yue got a lot of things that he needed to digest, and his soldiers needed to recuperate.
On Monday, I was so busy that I was dizzy and rushed to make two updates. Don’t blame the bosses...
