While Zhao Junchen was trying to trick Huang Shenming into doing something, Jiang Quan was also wearing a helmet to cover his face, camouflaging his facial features and body shape, and was galloping among the Liaodong army, galloping all the way westward.
Although Zhao Junchen hopes that Jiang Quan can play a role next, Jiang Quan himself is anxious and worried about gains and losses.
Because Jiang Quan didn't know whether he was capable of meeting Zhao Junchen's requirements and completing the tasks assigned by Zhao Junchen.
The task assigned by Zhao Junchen was actually very simple to put it bluntly. It was to try to contact Fang Zhenshan, Wu Shilin and others and pass on the news, so that they would never be afraid of He Bandit's military power, let alone compromise to He Bandit's obstruction. They must To find a way to participate in the chaos in Liaodong, it is best to break through the obstruction of the bandits in one fell swoop and lead the army directly to the garrison camp surrounded by dense forests in Liaodong Town.
If it really doesn't work, we must try to delay the time so that He Bandit cannot lead his army back to the camp in a short time.
However, although this task sounds simple, it is extremely difficult to execute.
Under the current circumstances, not to mention whether Jiang Quan could convince Fang Zhenshan and Wu Shilin to act according to the plan, even if he wanted to contact and convey news to Fang Zhenshan, Wu Shilin and others, it would not be an easy task.
Thinking of the difficulties of the tasks he shouldered, Jiang Quan couldn't help but feel timid and lacking in confidence.
"Before, just in case, Zhao Gechen said that eggs cannot be put in one basket, so he lurked alone next to Huang Shenming, while I hid next to Li Shijie...
In this way, as long as the Guan Ning Cavalry takes action according to the original plan, there is a high probability that one of Zhao Gechen and I will take advantage of the situation to leave the camp, and then have the opportunity to contact all external forces...
But now that I think about it, it would be better for Zhao Gechen to exchange places with me and let him hide next to Li Shijie. After all, I am far from as wise and resourceful as Zhao Gechen. Although I have successfully left the camp with Li Shijie and mixed in with the army, He may not have the ability or opportunity to complete the tasks assigned by Zhao Gechen...
If I just come back empty-handed this time, not only wasting the opportunity, but also delaying the opportunity, how should I explain to Zhao Gechen?
Sigh... If Zhao Gechen and I were to change places, then he might have thought of a perfect plan by now, allowing him to completely escape the control of Liaodong Town..."
While he was sighing secretly in his heart, Jiang Quan suddenly noticed that someone around him was secretly observing him.
Jiang Quan looked out of the corner of his eye and found that a group of Liaodong cavalry reinforcements had surrounded him intentionally or unintentionally.
After realizing this, Jiang Quan suddenly became confused.
Could it be that...his disguise has been discovered?
But after Jiang Quan suppressed his panic and observed carefully, he soon felt a little more at ease.
Because the secret surveillance and silent siege of these Liaodong cavalry reinforcements were not just targeting Jiang Quan alone.
He Bandit led his troops out this time, taking with him all the senior military attachés of Liaodong Town except Huang Shenming. Most of the private soldiers under these senior military attachés of Liaodong Town were left in the camp, but they were still surrounded by people. He was escorted by several personal soldiers.
The secret surveillance and quiet siege of the Liaodong cavalry reinforcements at this time were aimed at the personal protection of all high-level military attachés in Liaodong Town, and Jiang Quan was just one of the targets. It was obviously a precautionary measure just in case. As long as these personal guards The soldiers and guards did not make any changes, and the Liaodong cavalry reinforcements that surrounded and monitored them would not take any more actions.
Thinking of this, Jiang Quan felt both deeply stressed and secretly grateful.
He felt the pressure because He Bandit, He Rensheng and others were much more cautious than expected when doing things. Under such close surveillance, Jiang Quan must be more cautious if he wants to complete the tasks assigned by Zhao Junchen. difficulty.
Secretly rejoicing because Jiang Quan suddenly discovered that it might be a good thing to let Zhao Junchen stay in the camp and leave the camp to carry out the mission. After all, the mission he shouldered was more risky, and naturally this kind of risk should not be Leave it to Zhao Junchen, not to mention that he is a soldier after all, and he behaves like a soldier in every gesture. He is not conspicuous among the army. On the contrary, if Zhao Junchen is allowed to move among the army, he will soon be People will find abnormalities.
Thinking of this, Jiang Quan finally stopped worrying about gains and losses, and began to seriously consider how he should perform the task.
But Jiang Quan himself was not a witty or talented person, so although he thought hard, he still had no clue. In the end, he could only decide to take it one step at a time.
Almost at the same time that Jiang Quan gave up thinking, the Liaodong Town army suddenly stopped moving, and then news came that signs of Guan Ning's cavalry had been found in the front, so that the entire army was ready for battle.
After about another incense stick, Jiang Quan saw an army appearing in the distance, with a size of about three thousand people.
The Guan Ning Cavalry troops stationed near Hujiazhuang only have 2,000 troops, so the army in front of them is obviously not only Guan Ning Cavalry, but also includes representatives of Liaodong regiment training, Liaodong branch training, and various gentry clans in Liaodong.
*
At the same time, at the front of the army in Liaodong Town, He Bandit snorted coldly after seeing this scene and said: "Wu Shilin and Fang Zhenshan have indeed decided to join forces and even mixed the two armies together. action!"
Next to He Bandit, Ximen Sheng said slowly: "They mixed the troops together, which is actually a good thing for our army!
If the Guan Ning Cavalry chooses to act alone, after all, they are as powerful as the Liaodong Cavalry in the world, and they were lucky enough to win the Liaodong Cavalry in a competition a few days ago. Currently, their morale is strong, and our army still has to be wary of it. a bit!
But if the Guan Ning cavalry chooses to mix and act with the Liaodong regiment training, Liaodong branch training, and the servants and guardians of the various gentry and wealthy families in Liaodong, they will be tied up and hindered! Under such circumstances, if we have to fight with real swords and guns, our chances of winning will be greater! "
On the other side, Li Zehe would not give up any opportunity to criticize Ximen Sheng, and immediately sneered: "If we follow He Qianhu's original plan, we can mobilize at least seven or eight thousand soldiers and horses this time, not only Including 5,000 reinforcements from all walks of life, and more than 2,000 troops stationed in the camp!
But now, because of the mutiny, the troops stationed in the camp dare not move lightly. Our troops only have more than 5,000 reinforcements from all walks of life. Among them, the Liaodong cavalry reinforcements only have 2,000 troops, which is comparable in size to the Guanning cavalry. The advantage is not that big!
Therefore, it is better to be cautious. If we lose to the Guan Ning Cavalry again, we, Liaodong Town, will not be able to raise our heads in the future! "
These words were obviously criticizing the mutiny instigated by Ximen Sheng.
Upon hearing Li Zehe's accusation, Ximen Sheng's face turned cold and he planned to refute.
At the same time, Li Shijie heard Li Zehe and Ximen Sheng repeatedly mention the Liaodong Cavalry's recent defeat to Guan Ning Cavalry, and seemed to be secretly blaming himself, and couldn't help but look embarrassed.
Seeing that these high-level military attachés were about to start fighting among themselves again, He Rensheng quickly spoke up and warned: "Everyone, let's take care of the matters at hand first. If we still only focus on fighting among ourselves at this time, I'm afraid we will make the Shanhaiguan Wu family laugh even more."
Over the years, the Wu family in Shanhaiguan and Liaodong Town have been fighting openly and secretly, with a strong sense of competition between them. Therefore, after hearing He Rensheng's persuasion, the military attachés in Liaodong Town felt the same hatred and the dispute was temporarily suspended.
At this time, the Guan Ning cavalry and other troops in the distance also stopped moving.
After a while, Wu Shilin, the commander-in-chief of Shanhaiguan Pass, and Fang Zhenshan, the governor of Liaodong, each left their army with dozens of guards and slowly approached the Liaodong Town army. It seemed that they wanted to fight with the Liaodong Town army. The army makes contact.
Seeing this scene, He Bandit thought for a moment and then led the senior military attachés of Liaodong Town and more than a hundred personal guards to greet him.
However, as the two sides got closer to each other, He Bandit and others discovered a strange scene.
It turned out that just behind Fang Zhenshan's horse, there were more than ten prisoners who were tied up by Wuhuada!
Among these prisoners, the leader was the only well-known and respected scholar in Liaodong—Zhang Zhengqing!
