Ying Yi sat cross-legged quietly with a long sword across his knees. Zhou Li and Zhu Bingkun were already in full military uniforms and sat on his side with a tranquil expression.

More than three thousand soldiers and horses were silent, and the atmosphere in the valley was calm.

Seeing the setting sun, there was no return at night: "Report, sir, I found the traces of Hao Yaoqi and Liu Zongmin's two thieves!"

Ying Yi was excited: "Where is it?!"

"Hao Yaoqi's subordinate is on the left, and Liu Zongmin's subordinate is on the right, all of which are hidden in the forest more than ten miles away!"

Ying Yi smiled and said, "Okay! Try again!"

He looked at Zhou Li on his face, and Zhu Bingkun said, "What I worry about is that no foreign soldiers will come. It seems that I still looked at the thief with a high glance."

Then he said, "But after another thought, it's reasonable. Hao Yaoqi lost his troops and generals for the sake of the two million taels of silver. How could he be willing to do so if he had no gains? Liu Zongmin also came to seize the silver at the order of a thief. Since there was trace of the silver, they could not watch it."

"Let the soldiers eat and drink enough and prepare for the battle."

Zhou Li and Zhu Bingkun immediately did not dare to neglect them. They continued to give orders along the way, and more than 3,000 soldiers ate dry food on the spot.

The situation on the ground in Nanyang is not complicated. Apart from Ying Yi, the hidden troops, were only Huguang soldiers, Hao Yaoqi, and Liu Zongmin soldiers. But because of this, Ying Yi was able to capture the chestnuts from the fire.

Zuo Liangyu already knew that Zheng Yunzhi had the "five thousand" green and strong. However, Zuo Liangyu's inherent thinking never put the "five thousand green and strong" on the opposite side. He would never have thought that Ying Yi would play with him in his palms like this. He thought that Zheng Yunzhi had brought the "five thousand green and strong" to fight with Li Guo from Kaifeng at this time.

As for Hao Yaoqi and Liu Zongmin, they were completely unaware of it.

They all stared at the silver.

The soldiers eat and drink well, but there will be rewards if they don’t collect at night.

"A group of officers and soldiers heading towards Yuzhou are coming to Baihe Valley, and they are ten miles away."

Ying Yi heard this and said, "How many people are there? Who is leading the troops?"

Ye Bushou said: "Around 15,000, the big flag has the word "left" written on it."

Ying Yi waved his hand while thinking, "Take again, continue to pay attention to the direction of Yuzhou."

"Here!"

After the night failed to take him away, Ying Yi said to Zhou Li and Zhu Bingkun: "Zuo Liangyu is an old corps. He will definitely not ignore Hao Yaoqi and Liu Zongmin. Haha, there are three troops within ten miles, three directions. Interesting."

Zhou Li pondered: "What do you mean is there a soldier behind Zuo Liangyu?"

Zhu Bingkun laughed: "It's all old corpses. Zuo Liangyu sent 15,000 people, he had 40,000 people, and there were 25,000 people. Hao Yaoqi and Liu Zongmin were both on the left and on the right, and they were more than 10,000 people, supporting each other."

Ying Yi laughed: "I heard that Zuo Liangyu has a son named Zuo Menggeng. These 5,000 people must be led by Zuo Menggeng. Zuo Liangyu is still hiding behind. In the end, is Zuo Liangyu's first-class chess move, or Hao Yaoqi, how powerful Liu Zongmin is?"

Zhu Bingkun and Zhou Li both laughed: "It should be the adults who are playing first-year chess."

"Ten miles, it's almost there." Ying Yi stood up and said, "Send the order and prepare. At most, half an hour will be left. At that time, the sky will be killed. The moon will be dark and the night will be killed. The wind will be high and the beacon will be fired."

...

Although the army is very fast, the army is bloated after all. Ying Yi waited left and right, but he didn't come for half an hour. After waiting for another quarter of an hour, he returned several times during the night. The big flag of the left character appeared outside the Baihe Valley.

"I didn't expect that Hao Yaoqi and Liu Zongmin were a little smart."

Ying Yi pondered, "I actually stopped moving."

Ten thousand officers and soldiers had arrived outside the Baihe Valley, but for the past half an hour, the two bandits hiding ten miles away on both sides did not move.

Sure enough, even if you are a thief, you are capable.

"Sir, what should I do now?"

Zhou Li asked frownly.

Ying Yi smiled and said, "All it's up to my plate, can you still get out? Follow my orders and don't be anxious."

“Come in.”

Outside the valley, the officers and soldiers pressed their clothes and divided a team of people and came in secretly.

"Want or not?" Zhou Li was a little impatient.

Ying Yi smiled and said, "They advance, we just need to retreat. But before retreating, we still have to fight."

He waved his hand, and a commander next to him waved the command flag. Most of the more than 3,000 soldiers hidden in the valley began to retreat to the ridge, and a small part was hidden in the forest. As the command flag waved, three long horns like goose sounded. In the bang sound, hundreds of feather arrows flew out and screamed a few times.

A group of officers and soldiers entering the valley were pressed on the spot by sparse rain of arrows. After a few people died, they became flinched.

As if it was a signal, these screams sounded, and most of the officers and soldiers outside the valley began to enter the valley. Seven or eight cannons were scattered in one stroke and aimed at the valley. At the same time, about a thousand people separated from the large army and quickly entered the valley.

In the darkness, the bowstrings were buzzing, followed by muskets crackling, occasionally flashing with flames, and screams became dense.

Ying Yi was condescending with an indifferent face.

One thousand people, another thousand people, a total of three thousand people entered the valley. The hundred archers Ying Yi placed in the valley were forced to retreat continuously, and there were also casualties and injuries.

The officers and soldiers were very cautious and did not advance rashly. They compressed the space in the valley step by step. Seeing this, Ying Yi knew that it was almost done. He nodded to the messenger beside him. After a moment, three short roars rang out. The archer in the valley suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly looked at the beams on both sides to retreat.

At this time, I heard the officers and soldiers in the valley shouting: "The thief has gone up to the beam!"

Soon, seven or eight cannons at the entrance of the valley were aimed at the ridges on both sides of the Baihe Valley.

Ying Yi saw clearly that he did not want to eat the cannons of the officers and soldiers. He immediately led his people back into the dense forest and disappeared. The officers and soldiers set off several rows of cannons, but when they saw no response, they sent a thousand people to check on the beams on both sides, but only saw traces and no one was seen.

Zuo Menggeng was very happy and hurriedly asked someone to explore the valley. Sure enough, there was money, so he was overjoyed.

"In order to keep the secret, Hao Yaoqi must not have many people in the valley. No wonder he was easily forced to leave." Zuo Menggeng thought of this in his heart. He was very excited and shouted: "Send the order and don't move the wooden boxes without any movement. You can transport them all out quickly. Let's go back to Yuzhou!"

The night was heavy, and Zuo Menggeng quickly transported dozens of heavy boxes out of the Baihe Valley and carried them onto the carriage one by one. Before he even had time to check carefully, he drove his troops away.

Although Zuo Menggeng was young, he was also an old corps. Moreover, when he came, Zuo Liangyu ordered him to say that he was a thief by his side, and he might not have been spying on him, and he must be as soon as possible.

He was also anxious now. Although there were 15,000 soldiers, it was not safe.

At this time, Liu Zongmin, ten miles away on the right, heard the sound of cannons and couldn't help but sneer: "What a barbarian who is shaking the flag, he really has the intention to betray the King of Rebellion."

The left and right were puzzled: "Why do you say this when you hold the plate?"
