V3.Chapter 93

It can also be felt from the opinions of the heads of the armed forces that they have determined that their own side is in control of the victory. It is only a matter of time to wipe out the rebels. Even the follow-up plan to prevent Li Shu from absconding has been thought out in advance.

Within the territory of Baiyang County, the Sichuan army's battle was still smooth with the wind and water. Without effort, it successively occupied one city and four towns. Next, the goal of the Sichuan army is Qijia City, the county seat of Baiyang county.

To go to Qijia City, you have to pass through a dangerous place, Wan'an valley. Wan'an Valley is steep. It is a long and narrow canyon with high mountains on both sides. There is only one road in the middle.

Because of the dangerous land here, there are often falling stones and wild animals, and there are always casualties among passers-by, so people gave the canyon the auspicious name of "Wan'an Valley", hoping to use the name to defuse the ferocity here.

Of course, this is superstition. The canyon is still the same Canyon, and deaths and injuries still often occur.

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

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

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

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

Gao Peng smiled and said with ease: "General Chen, don't worry. Our scouts just inquired about wan'angu yesterday. There was no ambush. Now they can pass safely."

Chen Lihua nodded, shook her head again, and said positively, "the rebels are cunning and have to guard against it. Immediately send scouts to continue to inquire."

"This..." Gao Peng frowned slightly. It's too much. Chen Lihua was too cautious. He whispered, "general, it's late now. If we wait for the spies to inquire, it will be dark. Our army can only wait for tomorrow."

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

When he said this, Gao Peng couldn't say anything more. Then he ordered the deputy general to send out the spies of the 11th corps to inquire into the Wan'an Valley in front of him. Then the heads of the armed forces ordered the whole army to set up camp on the spot and continue on their way tomorrow.

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

The spies sent out didn't come back one after another until late at night. The information they brought back was consistent. There was no ambush on the peaks on both sides of Wan'an Valley, and there was no trace of rebels or traces left nearby.

Hearing 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 about it today. It's not asking for trouble!

However, Chen Lihua doesn't think so. Delaying one day is nothing. As long as it can ensure that everything is safe, it's more important than anything.

There was nothing to say that night. Early the next morning, the Sichuan army set off and passed through Wan'an valley.

Zhenjun really doesn't have an ambush here. Even a fool can see that it's easy to set up an ambush in such a dangerous place. If Yin Li still sets an ambush here, he is no longer worthy to be the commander of the army.

After successfully passing through Wan'an Valley, another 30 miles ahead is the Qijia City, the county seat of Baiyang county.

As long as the Sichuan army takes Qijia city again, most of Baiyang county has been controlled by the Sichuan army, leaving only a small border city - longtangkou.

At this time, the generals of the Sichuan army were like beating chicken blood, urging their soldiers to march in a hurry. When the Sichuan army was ten miles away from Qijia City, spies galloped back and reported to Chen Lihua and others that a rebel army had just fled Qijia city in a hurry and was heading for longtangkou. As for the specific military strength, there were too many to count. It was conservatively estimated that it was about 40000 or 50000 people, which could be basically determined that it was the main force of the rebel army.

It is said that the main force of the rebels did not dare to defend even the county and city and directly abandoned the city and fled. Chen Lihua and others were overjoyed. This opportunity is too rare. Isn't this a good opportunity for our side to fight to the death with the rebels?

Chen Lihua ordered on the spot that all the officers and men march in a hurry. They must catch up with the rebels who fled to longtangkou and have a frontal confrontation with them on the flat ground.

The officers and men of the Sichuan army who received the order made great efforts to advance one by one. They arrived at the ten mile distance in less than half an hour.

The rebels really ran away. There were no soldiers left in such a large county, and the city gates were hidden. The Sichuan army didn't even use the siege equipment. They directly opened the gate and poured into the city like water.

The Sichuan army in the advanced city did not make any stop, but directly crossed the city to pursue the rebels who abandoned the city and fled.

There are more than ten thousand shops in the city, but there are almost ten thousand people in the city. There are also a lot of shops in the city. There are almost ten thousand people in the city.

Seeing a large number of Sichuan troops rush into the city, the people in the city are very calm and can't see the color of panic. From the heart, Zhen people are not afraid of the Sichuan people, or they are not convinced of the Sichuan people. However, the Sichuan army has always had the reputation of being a teacher of benevolence and righteousness. The military discipline is strict, and the soldiers will not kill innocent people indiscriminately or rob the people's property.

At this time, looking at the Sichuan army rumbling through the streets, the people didn't flee in all directions, but retreated to both sides of the street. One by one, they also stretched their necks and looked around, completely holding the mentality of watching the excitement.

A teahouse on the side of the road, on the second floor. Tang Yin and Qingyu are sitting by the window. Around it, the whole tea table on the second floor was occupied by their people, including ah San, ah Si, Yin LAN, Cheng Jin and his hidden arrows.

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. He said happily, "who says Zhenren is stupid, who should hide and who shouldn't hide, they know very well!"

Qingyu was also happy. He nodded with a smile and asked, "young master, do you think Zhenjun can win this war?"

Tang Yin snorted and said, "according to the exploration of Tianyan and underground network, the current strength of the Sichuan army is only 130000, while the strength of Zhenjun is 70000. Even if the two armies have a frontal confrontation, it is difficult for the Sichuan army to win. What's more, Yin Li still uses the tactics of double attack. In this battle, the Sichuan army will be defeated."

Qingyu youyou said: "Yin Li has seen through Chen Lihua, or he has seen through the habits of the Sichuan army. It is expected that after the Sichuan army enters Bainan County, it will be stationed everywhere, resulting in a sharp reduction in the main battle force. This person is smart, not only good at strategy, but also good at insight. In the future, the king needs to be more careful about this talent. Yes!"

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

At this time, the Sichuan army passing in front of the teahouse has become cavalry. The cavalry team is in a neat formation, five riding in a row and walking in a neat and uniform way.

About a thousand riders passed by, followed by a group of Sichuan generals. The leader, who was over 50 years old, had gray hair and wore gold helmets. He looked extraordinary and majestic.

Qingyu glanced at it from the corner of his eye and whispered, "childe, this man is the commander of the 17th army of the state of Sichuan. Chaisong is originally a literary general, but he is famous for his bravery and bravery."

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

"I met a few years ago. The Chai family is a famous family in the state of Sichuan and has been doing business for generations. A strong-natured general like chaisong is really different from the Chai family!"

Qingyu is an authentic nobleman of Mo country. He is well-informed and knows the noblemen of Sichuan country very well. He talks like a treasure.

Tang Yin smiled more intensely and said slowly, "unfortunately, the only general of the Chai family is afraid to die in Zhenxi this time."

While he was talking, Chai song, who passed by the teahouse, happened to look up at the second floor where he was located. Qingyu didn't turn his head for the first time, while Tang Yin didn't avoid it. He smiled at Shang chaisong and nodded to him.

Chaisong couldn't help taking a breath. He hadn't seen Tang Yin, let alone guessed that the Youth Association sitting in the qijiacheng teahouse was Tang Yin, the king of the wind. He just felt that Tang Yin was introverted and surprisingly handsome. He was different from ordinary people, especially his eyes. Even if he was smiling, he couldn't hide the glittering essence.

What a cheerful and dignified young man. Who is this man? Is it Zhenren? In Chai song's impression, most of Zhen people have a savage hostility, which is very uncomfortable, while Tang Yin can't feel it at all.

If he had to go after the fleeing rebels, he really wanted to get off the horse and talk to Tang Yin on the second floor. Unfortunately, he didn't have the time now because he was in charge of military affairs. Chai song is also very polite. Even if he is a general and the other party is dressed as civilians, when Tang Yin nods to himself, he also nods back. Then, he whispered to a bodyguard around him, "keep the young man on the second floor of the teahouse. When benshuai has wiped out the rebels, I'll see him back in the city. Remember, don't be rude!"

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

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

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