The one thousand prisoners will be handed over to the seven thousand army preparing to break through. As for how they are prepared to deal with it, let's talk about it. And those thousands of severely wounded people, even if they break out, the best can’t last for ten and a half months, and the worst estimate is that they can’t survive these two days. After learning of their general’s promise, they are all unwilling to return. Stay in the camp to contain the enemy.

And what they think of to contain the enemy is to use this camp to destroy the enemy forces that have invaded it. In response to this, apart from being silent, everyone had infinite hatred and anger towards Dong Zhuojun and Jiang Peijun.

Now that the personnel to break through have been decided, it is okay for the cavalry to break through, but the eight thousand infantrymen is a big problem. Su Zhi and Zhao Yun discussed for more than half an hour, and then all the artisans from the generals were recruited. Finally, it was decided that these seven thousand soldiers and one thousand prisoners would cross the Sushui River, and then travel along Hebei to Wenxi and the army. Converge.

The reason for this arrangement is mainly because from various aspects of intelligence, there is no large group of cavalry on the north bank of the Sushui River. After the 7,000 foot soldiers cross the river, it should be safe.

As for the 20,000 Dong Zhuo’s cavalrymen on the south bank, when they see the 20,000 cavalrymen breaking out of the camp, they will definitely focus on this cavalry. Where can there be time and energy to take into account the number of cavalry who broke through to the other side of the river? Thousands of remnants.

However, there is still no bridge on the river, and there are no ferry ports or ships on both sides of the river. How to cross the river is another problem. There were actually several bridges above Sushui. One of them was in Wenxi, and the other was in Xie County, downstream. It's just that Wenxi's bridge has been destroyed by Jiang Pei to prevent Sizhou army from crossing the river. But the bridge in Xie County couldn't be counted on, because these seven thousand pacesmen had no chance to cross the river from there.

Since there is no bridge, just build a pontoon by yourself, but it is not easy to build a pontoon. The water surface of the Sushui River near the camp is about 30 meters wide, and the deepest part is about two meters. Fortunately, it is winter and the river water has been much smoother. But it is also very difficult to erect a floating bridge at this time.

After several discussions, suddenly a craftsman said that they had built a simple pontoon bridge. They used three to five long iron cables to traverse the river and then laid wooden boards on the iron cables. However, this kind of floating bridge can only withstand at most. It is basically impossible for people to cross the river if the truck wants to cross the river. Moreover, the iron rope is definitely not enough. After a certain distance, the river still needs to be supported by a ferry.

But there is another question, how to fix the wooden board on the chain? If the fixing is not good, the planks will either be squeezed together or slipped into the river, making it impossible for people to pass through.

Then another craftsman came up with an idea, which was to make a few holes in the wooden board, and then make a few large wooden deeds. After laying the wooden boards, the wooden deeds were driven into the wooden boards from the holes, and the other end of the wooden deeds was stuck into the iron rope. Within the iron ring, such a piece of wood only needs to be nailed to each iron rope, and the iron rope can be tightened at both ends, it is not a big problem for thousands of people to cross from above.

Now that the plan has been finalized, Su Zhi also arranged for Min Zhuang and the craftsmen to start preparations. For a while, the camp was brightly lit all night and was full of excitement. Except for the soldiers who will be on the assault mission tomorrow, other soldiers will automatically come to help prepare various supplies.

While the craftsmen in the camp were busy preparing supplies for the pontoon bridge, several soldiers who were proficient in water-based soldiers selected by Su Zhi had already left the camp with the raft made in a hurry, and moved towards the river under the cover of the night. Go, their purpose is to find the best place to erect the pontoon bridge. After the wire ropes are made, they will pull a few wires across the river and hide them first. When they are really ready to retreat, they will quickly fasten the wires. Assist the army to quickly erect the pontoon bridge.

The situation in the Su Zhijun camp was quickly reported to the generals by Fan Chou, but they didn't care much. From the generals' view, it would be really strange if the Sizhou military camp was quiet. Tomorrow morning after dawn, the Xiliang Army and Hedong Army infantry will attack the camp, and their cavalry only needs to watch them not to let them escape.

However, neither Fan Chou nor Dong Yue thought that Sizhou Army would be so stupid to abandon the camp and escape. In order to attack the camp tomorrow, Fan Chou deliberately asked Jiang Peijun's generals to transfer 5,000 foot soldiers from Xie County to support. As a result, nearly 20,000 foot soldiers were enough to attack the Sizhou Army camp.

The Su Zhijun camp is next to the river, less than two hundred steps away from the river. After a busy night, the craftsmen have built four 40-foot iron ropes. For these iron ropes, all the iron materials that can be used in the camp have been used. Run out. In addition, several wooden stakes buried several meters deep in the ground were erected in the camp, and one end of the four iron cables was fixed on the wooden stake, and then the other end had been quietly pulled into the river. Opposite shore.

However, in order not to attract the attention of Dong Zhuojun and Jiang Peijun, these iron cables were not pulled up, but were tied with cables and sank below the water.

When the first ray of sunlight shone on the ground in the morning, all the soldiers in the Su Zhibu camp were ready. The white horse Yicong, Tujia soldiers, and Yuan Rong crossbow soldiers stayed quietly beside their horses. They are the main force of today's breakout. Not only must they cover the rest of the cavalry, but they must also attract Dong Zhuojun's cavalry away in order to relieve the pressure on the infantry who broke through.

So they must not only break through the siege, but also anger Dong Zhuojun, and then go to chase their cavalry.

The other soldiers, who can ride horses, are ready to mount. The minzhuang craftsmen who can't ride horses have been tied to horses. When the army sets off, they will be trapped in the cavalry and quickly break through.

All you have to do now is to wait, and only wait for the generals of the Chinese army to come down before you can set off.

At the north gate of the camp, a thousand prisoners were guarded by a thousand soldiers, and they were also ready. As long as the enemy cavalry left, they would signal the people on the other side of the river and wait for the ropes to be tightened. , Then opened the camp gate and quickly erected a pontoon bridge.

At two quarters of an hour to Chenshi, the coalition of Dong Zhuojun and Jiang Peijun finally appeared in the sight of everyone. Less than one mile from the camp, Dong Zhuojun’s cavalry had about 10,000 horses separated from most of the horses and rushed towards the south of the camp. It is estimated that these cavalrymen are monitoring the movement of the camp in two directions, south and east of the camp. Once the camp is ready to break through, these cavalry will definitely rush forward without hesitation.
