Shortly after Gao Jin's troops captured Tongren, the Qing army in Guangxi finally began to move. The 40,000 army led by Guo Yong himself, including 20,000 wolf soldiers, entered Guizhou from Congjiang, and then divided into two groups, one to the north to Liping and the other to Rongjiang westward, and at the same time, he used the banner of the three provinces of Qinming.

As Zhao Hongcan's confidant general, Guo Yong did not advance quickly after entering Guizhou. Although he joined Guizhou in the name of joining the three provinces to wipe out Gao Jin's troops, in fact, every time he arrived at a place, Guo Yong reorganized the green camps and places in Guizhou in the name of the admiral of Guangxi, the vanguard of the three provinces.

It is said that it is a reorganization, but in fact it is an incorporation. Guizhou has not many total troops, and only five towns have full plans. Moreover, the main forces of the five towns are mostly concentrated in Guiyang and the line to Tongren. As for the green camps arranged in other areas, they are relatively scattered, which brings great convenience to Guo Yong's actions after entering Guizhou.

At the beginning, Guo Yong easily recruited some green camps and even directly annexed the troops stationed in the southeast of Guizhou, causing the army entering Guizhou to rise from 40,000 to more than 60,000.

As for those generals, deputy generals, generals, etc., because of their imperial deeds, not many people opposed it. Even if there are opponents, Guo Yong naturally had a way to deal with it. You must know that when he and Zhao Hongcan ran from Guangdong to Guangxi and directly annexed the various towns in Guangxi, they had used these methods long ago, just copying them.

But when Guo Yong personally led the main force to Longli, he did not advance to Guiyang but turned around and advanced westward. The army entered the Qingzhen area. At this time, the main force of the Qing army in Guiyang felt something was wrong and hurriedly sent an emergency report to Bei Henuo, who was far away in Kunming. When Bei Henuo learned the news, he was furious. He understood that Zhao Hongcan had attacked Yunnan and Guizhou directly, and hurriedly sent people to contact Guizhou's troops, and at the same time began to mobilize troops in Yunnan to prepare to enter Guizhou.

"Strange, it's really strange." Tongren and Gao Jin were a little confused about the news that had just been sent back, and Zhang Miao and Lady Lin, who were recruited by him, couldn't figure out what the Qing army in Guizhou was doing.

After taking Tongren, Gao Jin's troops did not advance quickly, but instead steadily and stabilized the surrounding areas of Tongren, and then marched towards Guiyang. But at this time, the Qing army in Guizhou had already responded. From Tongren to Guiyang, the Qing army had mobilized the troops of the three towns to be on high alert. Especially Gao Jin launched a tentative attack and found that the Qing army had good combat effectiveness and strong fighting spirit, so he adopted the strategy he had set before.

But the series of news just now puzzled Gao Jin, because the Qing army, which was originally on the front line, suddenly mobilized, and many Qing troops took the initiative to retreat. In addition to leaving some of the garrison forces, the main force had retreated towards Guiyang. The Qing army made Gao Jin puzzled, and he couldn't figure out what the Qing army wanted to do.

"Prince, is it because Qing Gouzi wants to set up an ambush and lead our army to attack them all?" Zhang Miao frowned and thought for a while, and asked hesitantly.

"This is impossible!" Madam Lin immediately retorted: "Where is such an ambush in the world? Just throw the city to the opponent, so our army will occupy it directly. As long as the army does not advance lightly, what will the Qing army do to me?"

"But if this is not the case, why is Qing Gouzi like this? Could something happen to them? " Zhang Miao scratched his head and asked.

"God knows." Lady Lin also shook her head and said, "What medicine is sold in this gourd? Is something really wrong? But it's wrong. The southwest of Guizhou is Yunnan, and the south is Guangxi. It's all the territory of the Qing court. What big things can happen?"

"Wait, Madam Lin, what did you say just now?" Gao Jin asked suddenly.

"I said it was all the territory of the Qing court, so what big things could happen." Lady Lin was a little surprised, but she repeated it.

"No! It's the previous sentence."

"The previous sentence? Oh, I said that southwest of Guizhou is Yunnan, and south to Guangxi..."

With a "bang", Gao Jin slapped the table with a palm and burst into laughter: "That's right! It must be like this, it must be like this!"

"Prince?" Zhang Miao and Madam Lin looked at each other, not understanding what was wrong with Gao Jin.

Gao Jin smiled and said, "Guangxi! It must be Guangxi!"

"Your Majesty, are you talking about Zhao Hongcan?" Lady Lin reacted the fastest and immediately understood.

Gao Jin nodded and said, "That's right! When our army entered Guizhou, Zhao Hongcan secretly contacted our army, clearly aiming to drive tigers and swallow wolves. Now our army has occupied Tongren, and now that the Qing army in Guizhou has suddenly been mobilized like this, it must be that something happened in the rear. If I had expected it, I'm afraid Zhao Hongcan had already taken action, otherwise the Qing army would never have done this."

"But, what if that's not the case?" Zhang Miao couldn't help asking.

"Nothing is wrong!" Gao Jin was excited and said with a smile: "No matter what, this is a great opportunity for our troops. What Madam Lin said before was a good trap. It is impossible to put the city in front of our army. Now, just try a bite and swallow it in your stomach. Besides, our army is going to attack Guiyang anyway, which is a matter of time, so it doesn't matter if you fight earlier. It's better to fight it clearly. Once you miss the opportunity, you will lose a lot."

"Prince, be careful." Although Zhang Miao thought Gao Jin's words made sense, he still reminded him.

Gao Jin waved his hand and said, "What you need to fight is to be bold and meticulous. The so-called opportunity must not be missed, and the time will not come again. Once you miss it, it will be difficult for our army to fight again. I will pass on the orders and gather the troops immediately and fight Shi Qian first. If everything goes well, then fight Yu Qing!"

Gao Jin was an action faction, and immediately mobilized the troops after making the decision. Originally, Gao Jin's troops took Jiangkou, which was not far from Shiqian, and Shiqian was the only way to Guiyang. In addition to leaving 20,000 troops to station Tongren and Jiangkou, Gao Jin personally led a large army to march towards Shiqian. He did not encounter the main force of the Qing army along the way. When he reached the city of Shiqian, the entire Shiqian was panicked. The more than a thousand Qing troops left behind were simply vulnerable to Gao Jin's tens of thousands of troops.
