.Traveling troops from Chongqing, I did not enter Hubei along the river, but went straight down from Nanchuan and marched rapidly towards Guiyang. The first one to reach Tongzi County.

In order to give Yu Chengqing the illusion that I had only three thousand people, I rarely had the vanguard, and led 3,000 people to attack Tongzi County first. My main force slowly hovered in the mountains at the junction of Sichuan and Guizhou, waiting for Yu Chengqing, who was waiting for Huangdu to come to rescue him after hearing the news.

I had already found out that Tongzi County had not been attacked, and Tongzi was a small county. Because this small county had no value on weekdays, there were less than 200 soldiers in the city, so there was no defense at all.

Yu Chengqing suddenly appeared in front of Tongzi County for the three thousand years. When the young commander in charge of the county saw the "army" approaching, he immediately withered. While sending people to ask Guiyang for emergency, he just resisted slightly, but instead opened the city gate and surrendered.

As soon as the city gate opened, Hantu's 3,000 people encountered almost no resistance. They soon occupied the county government and locked up all the county government officials. According to my previous instructions to him, Hantu posted a notice of "clearing the king" in the county town to appease the hearts of the people.

With my intentional actions, the news that I led the army to attack Guiyang soon reached Guiyang. According to the secret report of the factory guards I had in Guiyang, the governor and the censor immediately sent an urgent letter to Yu Chengqing, who was in Huangdu, asking him to return to the army, and at the same time, the secret letter sent to the capital was also sent.

Although Yu Chengqing's more than 10,000 people were not many, it was like a fish stalk to me. If I ignore him and lead the army directly into Beijing, I have to prevent him from rushing to the root of Sichuan. Instead of doing this, it is better to start first and eat him with my superior forces, and then switch to Hunan and Hubei. Anyway, my soldiers have not gone through actual combat, so that they can train and get a big victory to boost morale. It is also a very good thing.

During the march, I told my thoughts to Eighteenth brother. After hearing my words, Eighteenth brother immediately clapped and cheered, saying, "Brother Seventeen, you are so thoughtful. As long as you win this time, the news will definitely be transmitted to Yanjing. At that time, we will echo the father north and south, and the morale of the army will definitely rise sharply. If the Bangzi people in the court want to withdraw the vassal state, it can be considered as shooting themselves in the foot."

I said, "Yu Chengqing heard that our troops were out of Tongzi. Naturally, he thought our purpose was Guiyang. With his temperament, he would rush back from Huangdu along the Dejiang, Fenggang and Meitan lines at the fastest speed, and finally set up an ambush for us between Zunyi and Xifeng." I paused slightly and smiled and said, "We can let Hantu slowly rush in Tongzi tonight, and then we will lead people to the necessary road near Meitan County, which will be waiting faster than Yu Chengqing. Jieshi will definitely be able to achieve unexpected results."

After hearing this, the eighteenth brother nodded happily and asked me some details. He smiled and took the order and prepared to go.

The reason why I dared to believe that Yu Chengqing would take this route is because Yu Chengqing didn't know that I actually had 30,000 people in my hands, not 3,000 people. Once he learned that my 3,000 people were all near Tongzi, he would come back without hesitation to intercept me. On the contrary, if he knew that I had 30,000 people under my command, he would not dare to rescue Guiyang.

"Yu Chengqing, let you become the first defeated general in shocking the world!" I looked at the back of my eighteenth brother who gradually walked out of the camp, and suddenly felt a little excited.

Late at night, in the quiet forest, the cold wind is like a sword and the moon shadow is like a shuttle.

Although it was already early spring, it was still chilling at night. My eighteenth brother and I stared quietly at the end of the official road in the mountains and forests, without realizing the coldness in the wind.

Since early this morning, I have led my 27,000 people to set up an ambush in this mountain. The mountains have always been sparsely interpersonal and lush with grass and trees. Our people have found excellent locations to hide. In this darkness, there is nothing to be seen with the naked eye.

"It's almost two updates, why haven't you come yet?" Brother Eighteen whispered in my ear. He looked at the soldiers lying around him and said with some concern: "It's cold and cold, I'm afraid that if you lie down on this ground, your brothers will get cold and sick."

In my imagination, Yu Chengqing should have rushed back overnight. Although it may not be fast, he should have arrived here at this time. I didn’t expect that after waiting for so long, there was no news yet. It really made me begin to doubt my previous confidence and slowly speculate.

"Even if it's cold, you have to wait. If you continue to pass the message, it is strictly forbidden for all troops to light the fire to keep warm. Those who violate the order will be killed!"

The Eighteenth brother didn't seem to expect me to say this. After being stunned, he quickly responded to his order.

I turned my eyes and stopped looking at the distance of the official road. I kept telling myself that I would be wrong in my inference, and patience was what I had to give at this time.

In the whistling mountain wind, I suddenly heard some words not far away: "It's been two hours, why isn't anyone here yet?"

I turned around and looked, but I saw that two soldiers not far away were talking. At this distance between me and them, ordinary people might not be able to hear their words, but because of my profound skills, I could hear them clearly.

"Oh my god, why are these soldiers so slow? They can't catch up in two hours!" Another tall soldier answered.

"What a soldier? Don't scold me. Do you know that you are a soldier now?" said the short man who spoke before.

"I'm not a soldier. I'm not a soldier. This time, after the prince's battle, I'll go home to farm!"

"Farming? How can you compare to those who are in the army? As long as you practice martial arts, you can have food to eat. It's so cost-effective!"

"What's wrong with farming? It's not better than before. Since our prince made the decision, farming at home has become much more comfortable. Every family in our tutor has enough food to eat... Hey, you have to be afraid that you can't save your life when you are a soldier. Isn't farming much better than running around in the army?"

The short man thought about the tall man's words for a moment, but there was no argument. After thinking for a while, he asked again: "So since you think farming is good, why are you here in the army?"

"You don't know, the old village chief in our village said that the court could not bear to see our prince's goodness and wanted to deal with our prince. Ge, the prince is such a good person. The old and young men in our village said they wanted to bully our prince. That wouldn't they bully the people of Sichuan? So, many people signed up together to join the army... Hey, if I win in the future, I will go home to plant my land."

I listened to the two of them, and before I could think about it, I suddenly found that there seemed to be a night bird flying in the mountains and forests in the distance. My heart moved and I quickly focused my mind to look at the other side. A feeling of surprise suddenly filled my heart.

As expected, as I expected, with the sound of solid footsteps, I soon saw the torch at the end of the official road. The team was arranged in a scattered manner and rushed over without any rush. It seemed that they were the ones I would be waiting for tonight.

The Eighteenth Brother probably saw the firelight over there, returned to me with excitement, and said, "Brother Seventeenth Brother, Yu Chengqing is here, here!"

I nodded, suppressed the excitement in my heart, and said seriously: "Send the order quickly and let the palaces be careful not to make noises. Just wait for my orders and rush on, don't ask for the number of enemies to kill, remember to disperse the enemy's team first."

The eighteenth brother rubbed his hands eagerly, responded with a chuckle, and went down to send someone to pass on my order.

Yu Chengqing's long-dated arrival was beyond my expectations. I don't know what he was thinking along the way. Maybe he really didn't take my three thousand people seriously, otherwise he wouldn't come so unscrupulously.

I counted the other party's torches silently. In the mountain wind, the flashing flames were connected together, like a rising and falling fire snake, coming along the official road. There were two soldiers under each firelight. Generally speaking, the other party really had more than 10,000 people.

After a while, I could see the faces of the enemy soldiers. They all looked extremely tired, and they trembled from time to time in the bitter mountain wind. This really made me feel that the cold I had suffered before was not in vain. Compared to their soldiers under me, I could just wait for my work.

I knew very clearly the importance of intercepting the Zhongliu, so I let the other party's front army pass through the ambush easily. After a while, the Zhongjun, who was carrying the baggage carriage and horses, came over. I smiled slightly and immediately made a move to the eighteenth brother and Dali, who had been waiting impatiently, and the commander immediately lowered his voice and sent the command.

"Brothers, kill me!" Everything was ready, and my full energy blew up suddenly. Everyone could hear it in the quiet forest. The screams of my soldiers sounded loudly.

The enemy soldiers probably never thought that at this time, someone would be ambushed at this place and wait for them. In the dim fire, I saw that all of them had changed their faces, and they all showed horror. I didn't know how to deal with the situation in front of me.

However, my soldiers did not leave them much time and thought, because with those fire lights as targets, dense arrows suddenly flew towards the people under the fire horse, and screams rang out again and again.

After a few rounds of arrow rain, the enemy formation began to be in chaos. The survivors did not have time to worry about the baggage, carriages and horses, and began to run towards both sides of the official road. What I wanted was their escape, because only by expelling the defeated army and fleeing could they disperse the opponent's front and rear armies, so that the situation would completely fall towards us!
