It can also be felt from the opinions of the heads of the armed forces. They have all decided that their side is in a position to win. It is only a matter of time before they can wipe out the rebels. Even the follow-up plans such as preventing Li Shu from absconding have been planned in advance.

Within the territory of Baiyang County, the Sichuan army's operations were still smooth, and without any effort, they successively occupied one city and four towns. Next, the Sichuan army's target was Qijia City, the county seat of Baiyang county.

If you want to go to Qijia City, you will pass through a dangerous place, the valley of Wan'an. Wan'an Valley is a long and narrow canyon with high mountains on both sides and only one road in the middle.

Because of its dangerous land, falling stones and wild animals often occur, and pedestrians are always killed and injured. Therefore, people have given this valley the auspicious name of "Wan'an Valley", hoping to use the name to defuse the evil spirit here.

Of course, this is a superstition. The canyon is still that Canyon, and there are still many deaths and injuries.

When the Sichuan army arrived here, Chen Lihua urgently ordered the whole army to stop moving temporarily.

He took a GaN Chuan to the front of the army and stood on a high ground, overlooking Wan'an valley from a distance. Looking at the deep canyon ahead, Chen Lihua murmured in her heart: "what a precipitous place!"

Chen Lihua is an experienced veteran. He can see what terrain is easy to ambush and what is difficult to pass.

He said to the surrounding Generals: "this is a precipitous place. If the rebels occupy the peaks on both sides of the canyon, our army will rush in, and the consequences will be unimaginable!"

Gao Peng said with a smile, "don't worry, General Chen. Our scouts have just inquired about Wan'an Gu yesterday. There is no ambush. Now we can go through safely."

Chen Lihua nodded, shook her head again, and said in a positive tone: "the rebels are so cunning that they have to defend themselves. They will immediately send scouts to continue to investigate."

"This..." Gao Peng frowned slightly. This is too much to do. Chen Lihua is too cautious. He warned in a low voice: "general, it's not early now. If we wait for the scouts to investigate, it will be dark. Our army can only wait for tomorrow to go."

Chen Lihua said: "now our army is not in a hurry to fight the rebels. It's not a day short."

When he said this, Gao Peng couldn't say anything more. He immediately ordered the deputy general to send the spies of the 11th regiment out to explore the Wan'an Valley in front of him. Then, the commanders of all armies ordered the whole army to set up camp on the spot and continue to move on tomorrow.

Wan'an Valley is not a small canyon. It will take a long time to find out the whole valley.

The spies sent out did not come back until late at night. The intelligence they brought back was consistent. There was no ambush on the mountains on both sides of the Wan'an Valley, nor was there any trace of the rebels nearby.

Hearing of the spy's return, all the generals shook their heads in their hearts. They had just inquired about this place yesterday, but Chen Lihua had to inquire today. This is not asking for trouble!

However, Chen Lihua doesn't think so. It's nothing to delay a day. As long as you can make sure everything is safe, it's more important than anything.

In the morning of the next day, the Sichuan army set out and passed through the Wan'an valley.

Zhenjun did not ambush here. In such a precipitous place, even a fool can see that it is easy to ambush. If Yin Li still ambushes here, he is not worthy to be the commander of an army.

After the Wan'an Valley smoothly, another 30 miles ahead is the county seat Qijia city of Baiyang county.

As long as the Sichuan army takes the Qijia city again, most of Baiyang county will be controlled by the Sichuan army, leaving only a small border city, longtangkou, for the rebels.

At this time, the soldiers of Sichuan were in a hurry. When the Sichuan army was still 10 li away from Qijia City, the scouts came back at a high speed and reported to Chen Lihua and others that a rebel army had just fled Qijia city and was heading for the direction of longtangkou. As for the specific strength, because of the large number, it is impossible to make statistics. It is estimated that the number of soldiers is about 40000 or 50000. It can be concluded that it is the main force of the rebels.

It's said that the main force of the rebel army did not dare to defend the county and city and directly abandoned the city. Chen Lihua and others were overjoyed. This opportunity is too rare. Isn't this a good opportunity for us to fight a decisive battle with the rebels?

On the spot, Chen Lihua ordered all the officers and soldiers to march in a hurry, and they must catch up with the rebels who fled to longtangkou and confront them head-on on on the flat ground.

It took only ten and a half an hour for the soldiers to move forward.

The rebels really fled to a large county without any soldiers left. The gates of the city were all covered. The Sichuan army didn't even use the siege equipment. They pushed the gate of the city directly and poured into the city like water.

The Sichuan army in the advanced city did not stop at all, but went straight through the city to pursue the rebels who had abandoned the city.

Qijia city is not a small city. It is almost the same size as the prefecture. There are more than 100000 people in the city. The city is also very prosperous. There are many shops, large and small, which are owned by the people of Chi Yue.

Seeing a large number of Sichuan troops rushing into the city, the people in the city are calm and can't see that they are frightened and flustered. From the heart, Zhen people are not afraid of the Sichuan people, or are unconvinced to the Sichuan people. The Sichuan army has always been known as a teacher of benevolence and righteousness. The military discipline is strict. The officers and soldiers will not kill innocent people or rob people's property.This is how it is at this time. Looking at the surging Sichuan army on the street, the people did not flee in all directions. They just retreated to the two sides of the street and stretched their necks to look around. They were totally in the mood of watching the excitement.

A teahouse by the road, second floor. Tang Yin and Qingyu are sitting by the window. Around it, the entire tea table on the second floor was occupied by their people, including ah San ah Si, Yin LAN, Cheng Jin and his secret arrow staff.

Looking down at the Sichuan army swarming through the street and the Zhenren people on both sides of the street, Tang Yin couldn't help laughing at the harmonious scene that the rivers on both sides didn't violate the well water. He said happily, "who says that the Zhen people are stupid, who should hide and who should not? They are very clear in their hearts."

Qingyu was also happy. He nodded with a smile and asked, "do you think the Zhen army can win this battle?"

Tang Yin snorted and said, "according to the investigation of the sky eye and the ground net, the Sichuan army has only 130000 troops left, while the Zhen army has a total of 70000. Even if the two armies engage in a frontal confrontation, it is difficult for the Sichuan army to win. What's more, Yin Li still uses the tactics of attacking on both sides. In this battle, the Sichuan army will surely lose."

Qingyu youyou said: "Yinli has seen through Chen Lihua, or he has seen through the habits of the Sichuan army. It is expected that when the Sichuan army enters Bainan County, it will garrison all over the country, resulting in a sharp reduction of the main combat forces. He is smart, not only good at strategy, but also good at insight. In the future, the king should be more alert to this talent. Yes!"

"Well, I didn't expect Li Shu's men to have such a general talent. Maybe we shouldn't have recommended him to Li Shu at first." Tang Yin shrugged, picked up the teacup, drank the tea out of it, and then his eyes fell on the street outside the window.

At this time, the Sichuan army passing by the door of the teahouse had become cavalry. The cavalry troops were in a neat formation, five riding in a row, and passed in a neat and uniform way.

More than a thousand riders passed, and a group of Sichuan generals came to the rear. The leader was more than 50 years old. He had gray beard and hair, and was wearing gold helmets and armor. He looked dignified and majestic.

Qingyu took a glance at the corner of his eye and whispered, "young master, this man is Commander-in-Chief of the 17th army of Sichuan. Chai song, originally a general of the army, is known for his bravery and bravery."

Tang Yin laughed and asked, "do you know him?"

"I met a couple of years ago. The Chai family is a famous family in Sichuan and has been engaged in business for generations. Chai song, a general with a strong disposition, is really a different kind of general in the Chai family."

Qingyu is an authentic nobleman of Mo state. He is well-informed and knows well about the aristocrats of Sichuan. He is like a family treasure.

Tang Yin's smile was stronger in his eyes, and he said slowly, "unfortunately, the only general of the Chai family is afraid to die in Zhenxi this time."

As he spoke, Chai song, who passed the teahouse, happened to look up at the second floor where he was. Qingyu does not turn his head for the first time, while Tang Yin does not avoid it. He smiles at shangchaisong and points his head to him.

Chai song could not help but take a breath. He had never met Tang Yin, and could not have guessed that the Youth Association sitting in the tea house of Qijia city was Tang Yin, the king of the wind. He just felt that Tang Yin was introverted, and his appearance was extraordinary. He was different from ordinary people, especially his eyes, even if they were smiling, they could not cover up the flashing light.

What a high spirited young man, who is this man? Is it a virgin? In Chai song's impression, Zhen people are mostly with a savage anger, which is extremely uncomfortable, but in Tang Yin, he does not feel it at all.

If he had to go after the fleeing rebels, he really wanted to get off his horse and talk to Tang Yin on the second floor. Unfortunately, he didn't have the time because of the military affairs. Chai song is also very polite. Even if he is a general and the other party is dressed as a civilian, when Tang Yin nods to him, he nods in return. Then, he turned his head and whispered to one of his bodyguards: "keep the young man on the second floor of the teahouse. When I wipe out the rebels, I'll come back to see him. Remember, don't be rude!"

The bodyguard first looked up at Tang Yin at the teahouse window, then nodded again and again, arched his hands and said, "yes! General

Chai song didn't stop for a moment, but went straight over. The bodyguard who received his order, with more than ten soldiers from Sichuan, stopped, pulled his horse to the door of the teahouse, turned over and dismounted, and walked into the teahouse with great strides.

The guards and more than ten soldiers from Sichuan Province went up to the second floor, but when they got to the second floor, he immediately stayed. There were few people on the first floor of the teahouse, but the second floor was full of people. Moreover, there was a strange smell in the air, which made him feel chilly.
