Han Zuo Gaomen

Chapter 1409
Although fully prepared, the real warriors in the army are quite different from the brave villagers. Fortunately, there were no major mistakes in the execution of the mission. His followers were still captured alive, but these tribesmen in the Meng's camp also paid a heavy price.

Although Meng Kuang was caught by surprise, he first stabbed the leader of the Jie army with a short blade, but then he was thrown away by the elbow of the leader, as if he had been hit by an iron rod between his chest and ribs, and he struggled for a long time before he managed to stand up. Covering his painful abdomen, he dared not take a big breath.

"You Ding wants to die..."

The leader of the Jie army has messy hair at this moment, except for the short blade inserted deeply in the shoulder socket, all his hands and feet are twisted to varying degrees. People dare not approach easily.

Although he was injured by the attack, he also made a fierce counterattack afterwards. A considerable part of the Meng clan members lying in the hall were injured in his counterattack.But in the end, the tiger was defeated by the wolves, and the members of the Meng clan also had reasons to fight for their lives. In the end, the members of the Meng clan broke off their limbs and lost the ability to resist.

As for his followers, the situation was roughly the same. One of them was so unlucky that his skull was smashed open by a hard object, and his brain was smeared all over the ground.

"Clean up..."

Meng Kuang endured the pain and heartache, ordered his clansmen to clean the battlefield, and made sure that Pan Jia was not seriously injured, so he was relieved.In short, the matter was done, and they had to rely on Pan Jia to have a dialogue with Qu Zhou's master Wang.

The leader of the Jie army is still cursing, in his opinion, he only regards the Meng family as puppet minions, and now he has suffered a backlash. Compared with the safety of the situation, there is a kind of shame in his heart that cannot be vented.

"The dog thief is courageous. He dares to be rampant when he is about to die!"

With such a good development, Pan Jia was also very happy in his heart. He personally grabbed a ball of rancid sludge and blocked the owner's mouth, then looked at Meng Kuang and said, "It's not too late, please Meng Kuang Immediately, you and I escort these Jie soldiers back to the city..."

Meng Kuang didn't hesitate too much, Dang even nodded.The camp of the Jie army is not far from here, and the owner of the building has not returned for a long time, and his whereabouts are also confirmed. Soon after, Jie soldiers will definitely come to search.

Returning to Quzhou on this trip was still unpredictable, and Meng Kuang didn't know whether such a meritorious deed could make up for their previous crimes.But now that things have come to this point, there is no choice but to move on.

Before leaving the camp, Meng Kuang first presided over the departure of the clansmen from the camp, and moved deeper into the meadow to hide.They cooperated with the Jie army before, and they knew in their hearts that they were seeking skins from tigers, so they naturally had to reserve a way out, which was just in time to come in handy at this moment.

In just over an hour, all the clan members had already moved out. After all, they didn't have much wealth to live in the countryside.After Meng Kuang led a dozen Ding and Zhuang people to clean up the traces of other people's evacuation, he, Pan Jia and the other three went towards Quzhou County in the dark.

In Quzhou County, Huan Yi and Jin Xuangong did not rest either.It should be known that if Pan Jia's trip does not go smoothly, military disasters may break out at any time, so even in the middle of the night, they are still busy supervising the construction of defenses inside and outside the city, although it is difficult to build the city into an indestructible camp in such a short period of time Fortress, but it can be regarded as better than nothing.

It was late at night when Pan Jia and the others returned, and the soldiers on duty led them directly into Jin Xuangong's camp.Jin Xuangong also had not been lying down with his clothes together for a long time, and he was quite pleasantly surprised when he learned that Huan Yi's previous arrangement had actually paid off. He didn't have time to ask about the process, so he asked someone to inform Huan Yi in the city first, and then seized the time to interrogate the wounded disabled captives.

Not long after, Huan Yi also arrived here.Seeing the arrival of this young royal official, Pan Jia was also overjoyed, striding towards him and clasping his fists, he said, "Duke Ming, you have fulfilled your mission..."

"Okay, very good!"

Huan Yi stepped forward, raised her hand and patted Pan Jia's shoulder heavily. Seeing that there were many scars on the other side's head and face, she couldn't help frowning again, and it fell into the eyes of Meng Kuang, who was standing on the other side, with a deep heart. Unavoidably, there was another sudden rush inside, and he was in a hurry to pay respects, and said in a trembling voice: "Meng, a criminal in the wild, sees Ming Gong..."

Jin Xuangong was still in the interrogation, and Huan Yi was not in a hurry to intervene. He just pulled Pan Jia to ask him in detail to go through all kinds of things. Kuang pondered and said: "This environment has been in chaos for many years, and many people are in trouble. Let's not mention the old relics for the time being. I can feel the righteousness and return to the king's rule. There is indeed loyalty. As for the future..."

"I am guilty of a serious crime, I dare not beg for mercy. I just ask for a little help in the king's affairs to pay for the previous crime. If the Lord Ming is sympathetic to the wild people's strength and skills, I will repay the grace of life with the labor of dogs and horses!"

Hearing Meng Kuang's reply, Huan Yi couldn't help being stunned for a moment. In terms of conversation alone, this person is much better than Pan Jia, but after all, the old bad is true, and he doesn't know that this time's repayment will be rewarding. No matter how much, Huan Yi didn't promise lightly.After all, Qu Zhou has already come to rule, the majesty of the king's laws must be maintained, and punishments and rewards cannot be determined by his will.

At this moment, Jin Xuangong had already walked out of the tent, beckoning to Huan Yi with a stern expression, Huan Yi rushed over when seeing this, and asked how the harvest was.

"Fortunately, the thieves..."

After pulling Huan Yi back into the tent, Jin Xuangong signaled the soldiers in charge of the interrogation to drag several Jie army generals into custody, while he spread out a marching map, and gave some pointers on the map: "These places There are Jie troops in ambush, if the Jie generals did not reveal it, even if the scouts go north and spread widely, it will be difficult to find out for a while..."

Huan Yi glanced at the map, feeling a chill in his heart, seeing that the locations pointed out by Jin Xuangong were all closely related to Wang Shi's strongholds in Guangping County.It can be seen that the Jie army gave full play to its field advantages and regarded the Wang Shibu Wu scattered in the county as a stealthy life. Once any major changes happened on the battlefield, they would definitely give the Wang Shibu Wu in that position a thunderous blow.

Although the field strength of the Yanping camp has increased, it has not yet formed an absolute advantage in strength. Once a full-scale counterattack begins, if the opponent's location cannot be located within a short period of time, the battalions sent to various places will definitely suffer heavy losses.

For frontline strongholds like Quzhou, there are several Jie troops guarding the surrounding areas, but the good news is that these guarding Jie troops are not all rangers.After all, apart from having a slight advantage in field battles, the Jie army's real troop input is actually far inferior to that of the Wang division's troops. The organized cavalry team wants to maintain combat effectiveness, and it costs more than several times that of infantry.

Therefore, except for a stronghold located more than 20 miles southwest of Quzhou, where there are more than [-] Jie army cavalry, the other positions are dominated by infantry, and there are about a thousand people.

The Shangbai Jie army is full of tens of thousands of people, of which there are about [-] cavalry troops, which is a very high proportion. As the intrusions from the east become more frequent, the Jie army is also under a lot of pressure. All parties in the deployment of troops are inevitably stretched.

However, the source of this information is too single, and it is doubtful whether it is credible.But right now there is no time to continue to obtain other sources of news, and it is already a surprise to be able to catch such a Jiejun master.The current initiative is still on the Jie army's side, and once they realize this loss, they must react.

"Right now, there is no time to confirm whether the news is true or not. We can only arrange for a courier to announce it as soon as possible. The general has been preparing for a long time, and he must be collecting information. He has his own method of verification."

Jin Xuangong discussed with Huan Yi Xiaozuo, and Dang even decided to send a messenger to return quickly while the sky was still dark.Although the Quzhou countryside is currently under the control of the Jie army, it is not an isolated city completely isolated from the outside world, and there are still dozens of war horses in the city.

But before sending out the messenger, Jin Xuangong still had a stern look on his face, and sat in the table looking at the marching map in silence. Huan Yi also knew that Qu Zhou was still in a precarious situation, but he also knew that military affairs were not his forte. Sitting opposite, quietly waiting for Jin Xuan Gong's decision.

"I want to attack Shangbai first!"

After a while, Jin Xuangong suddenly said.

"What, what?"

Huan Yi didn't react for a while, and looked up at Jin Xuangong, seeing the serious expression on his sharp-edged face, and realized that the other party was not joking, but he couldn't help but said: "Is it too risky? Is the message true or not?" Can't be sure, let alone..."

Jin Xuangong smiled suddenly: "It's not true or not, you have to try it out. According to this report, the Jie army is aggressive on the outside and weak on the inside, and the strong soldiers are mostly sent outside. Shangbai is already extremely weak. Even Even if there are many soldiers left behind, we probably wouldn’t expect our army to dare to attack. What’s more, Quzhou City’s small pond is shallow, even if it stays behind, it may not be able to defend it. It’s better to take the initiative to attack than pinch your fingers and wait for attack!”

Huan Yi opened his mouth, not knowing how to evaluate Jin Xuangong's decision.It's easy to try, but if you don't succeed, you will have to pay the price with your life!

What's more, Qu Zhou's current number of soldiers is less than [-]. Apart from being infantry, he has no offensive and defensive weapons to rely on. Cull?

He originally thought that he was bold enough to go his own way and send out Pan Jia, who was not too trustworthy, but he didn't expect Jin Xuangong, the commander of the king's division, to be much bolder than him, holding a piece of information whose authenticity could not be determined at all. , dare to lead the crowd directly to the base camp of the Jie army!
"Don't be impulsive, Jin Banzhu, the current situation is not so..."

After Jin Xuangong made a decision, he didn't listen to Huan Yi's advice very much. Yes, from the perspective of the general situation, it was not necessary for him to take the risk this time. With the young and Xu people in southern Jinan gradually joining Guangzong In the battlefield, it is only a matter of time before the Jie army is defeated. The difference lies in how much the master Wang has to pay. However, there is still some distance between his personal destiny and the general trend, and he is unwilling to let go of this rare opportunity.

"Once Shangbai is breached, the Jie army's morale will be shaken from all walks of life. No matter what arrangements have been made before, they will not be able to do anything. At that time, the Yanping camp will no longer need to look after the rest, and the army can go straight to Shangbai. Attack its lair and disrupt it. Siblings, even if they fail, they can be of great benefit!"

When Jin Xuangong spoke up to this point, his eyes were already radiant. There is no such thing as too much luck in the world, and it is nothing more than fighting with one's life.Even the peasants and soldiers like Qu Zhou had the courage to jump up and seize the opportunity when the real opportunity came. If he was not timid this time, it would be difficult for the rest of his life to forgive himself for being weak this time.
