Qin Huan just rested all night and left early the next morning.

Niu Er's 2000 men and horses were also taken away, leaving more than 4000 long guns and long knives missing from the last seizure.

Plus the thousand stone grain in the city, Luo Rucai and other leaders were moved!

Several leaders even had the idea of following King Hua in the future.

Luo Rucai also immediately sent someone to inform Zhang Xianzhong that after the collegial discussion of the leaders, his eighth king was elected as the general handle of the fourth rebel army.

When the eighth king received the letter, he was really excited, especially looking at Qin Huan's special purple and gold crown, bright yellow cloak and a temporary seal.

Originally, King Qin prepared it for himself, but now he reluctantly gave it up and took it out.

Although he was surprised at Qin Huan's generosity, the hat of the leader of the rebel army he had always dreamed of was finally put on his head, and it was so formal that his hatred for Qin Huan disappeared.

In addition, he was really frightened in Gucheng, the food was almost finished, and he hated Zuo Liangyu.

He immediately took his men and horses into the county, killed the newly arrived county magistrate, raised the flag again, and then asked sun hope to lead 3000 men and horses to garrison, while he and Li Dingguo led the remaining 5000 troops to kill Baokang.

Compared with the eight kings, Luo Rucai has worries behind him. Luo Rucai is in Fangxian County, back to Zhushan, which can be regarded as peace of mind.

Therefore, after receiving the reply, he settled the old and the weak in the city and went to Baokang with more than 10000 troops.

The two sides arrived at sanchahekou almost the same day. After they joined forces, they ran to Baokang County to kill them.

The reason why the king and Cao Cao are so active is that neither of them is stupid. To beat Baokang is to make them both more exit.

In addition, Zuo Liangyu has been defeated repeatedly during this period of time. His strength is weak to the extreme. At this time, he doesn't pinch soft persimmons. When will he wait?

This time, marshal Zuo was really shocked. Three thousand of his five thousand soldiers and horses were just recruited, and half of them were still holding bamboo guns.

If Hong Chengchou hadn't given the death order, I'm afraid they all wanted to retreat to Nanzhang. They immediately sent someone to Xiangyang for help, and then prepared to defend.

When Qin Huan returned to Zhushan, the army had finished cleaning up.

Red Ying thought she was going to retreat to Fangxian, but when she learned that Qin Huan had given Fangxian to Luo Rucai, she immediately exclaimed, "are you crazy? He gave Fang county to Cao Cao? "

"What else do we need in Fangxian and Zhushan? It's better to throw it to Cao Cao and let him toss with the eight kings to attract the attention of the officials and the army. "

Qin Huan turned his eyes and found that he had chosen the mountain area as his root base, which was absolutely wrong.

Unless he can lay down more than a dozen counties and connect them together, it is absolutely impossible to defend one or two counties. He has to suffocate alive.

Now this situation is doomed that he can't lay down so many counties. Moreover, even if he does, he has to garrison the leader.

Therefore, he plans not to use that base for the time being, because the base areas at this stage are completely cumbersome and live targets.

It's better to develop and train a large army in sports warfare, just like an army in a previous life. It was the long march that made countless people become mature and stable from scholars.

As long as there is a strong army in hand, when the winter moon is full and the Qing Dynasty enters the pass, the southern soldiers and horses go north to the king of Qin. At that time, he will fight wherever he wants.

"Where shall we go? Are you going to fight Baokang or attack the city? "

"Baokang has a fart. What's worth fighting? I've let the hunters find a path in the mountains for a long time. It's the one Liu Guo could walk last time. Although it's difficult to walk, it can be repaired along the way. People and war horses can still pass. "

Qin Huan spread his map on the table and pointed to a red line on it.

In fact, the general directions of Xiangyang, Yunyang and Nanyang counties on the map are too simple to be understood by Qin Huan.

Anyway, the red warbler couldn't understand, and didn't know the words. He pointed to a small circle at the end of the black line and asked awkwardly, "where is this?"

"Junzhou."

"Are we going to fight Junzhou?" Where is Junzhou? The red warbler still has an impression in his mind.

"Yes, Zhuxi in the west, Baihe in the north, Yunxi and Yunxian are heavily guarded and heavily guarded, but Junzhou is empty. Where does Junzhou fight?"

Qin Huan didn't have a good airway. If he wasn't in urgent need of salt and sulfur, he didn't have enough cotton armor in his military uniform, and there was not much food. He really wanted to hide in the mountains until the beginning of spring next year.

"Where are these counties? It doesn't seem far from us. Are there heavy troops guarding it? "

The red warbler pointed to several black circles in the South and felt that it was not far from Junzhou, but also far from Yunyang.

"Silly girl, didn't you see that I drew a pile of dense hills in the middle? It's East Sichuan. I want to go, but can the army go to Shennongjia? "

When she heard that the hill was Shennongjia, the red warbler stopped talking.

The next day, early in the morning, more than 30000 troops went eastward. It was a spectacular scene.

Two thousand engineers led by the Qinwei battalion were responsible for exploring the way and the enemy, followed by the first infantry battalion led by Liu Hu and the first firearms battalion led by Qin Meng.

Then there were more than 5000 women and more than 3000 engineers, each with a horse, carrying grain, pots and pans, and other objects.

Then Qin Huan led another firearm camp, and the second and third infantry camps. Niu Er, with more than 10000 heroes, was in charge of the rear of the hall.

Compared with the other rebel armies, almost half of them were old and weak, but Qin Huan's army were all young men and women, and only thousands of concubines and literate servant girls were cumbersome.

But even if it was a burden, Qin Huan had to carry them, because without their help, more than 30000 people would be in a mess.

Moreover, a bamboo frame modified seat is placed on both sides of the mule and horse. One is just right for one side. Only 500 horses can pull them over the mountains.

The army only went eastward for one day. As soon as it crossed liujiaao, it turned to the mountains in the North overnight.

Almost the night Qin Huan and his family left, Hong Chengchou received the news and immediately smiled.

"My Lord, the Xiaohua king can't bear to escape."

"Hehe, it's rare to escape after confrontation with the governor for more than half a month!"

"Sir, do you want to March and recover Zhushan immediately?"

"Don't worry, wait another two days, so as not to force him to jump over the wall and drill into the mountain." Hong Chengchou waved his hand.

He believed that as long as there was no pursuit, with the strength and insight of Xiaohua Wang, he would never be willing to drill into the mountain.

After all, except for Fangxian County, Zhushan is surrounded by high mountains on both sides. Once you go in and come out, you have to save one of your troops.

If Hong Chengchou knew that Qin Huan had been thinking about how to run all day, and there were no old or weak in the team, I'm afraid he wouldn't think so.

Qian Gao, an aide on one side, smiled. Naturally, he could see the governor's intention. It was clear that he wanted to drive all the anti thieves to Gucheng, and then force them to cross the river and surround and annihilate them.

After all, when you cross the river, you enter Nanyang. There is a smooth road around. At that time, there will be no mountains. Once you are surrounded, you can't really walk away.
