After Qin Qiong and Di Qing led their troops to annihilate the Goguryeo army in Zhangqiu County, they took advantage of the victory and marched all the way. At this time, Li Jiancheng had led his army to withdraw from Qingzhou. Apart from a small group of bandits, there were no armed forces in Qingzhou. Therefore, Qin Qiong and Di Qing were unstoppable along the way. They recovered a large area of land within two months and pushed the front to the edge of the Yellow River in one breath.
Such a rapid and violent offensive by Qin Qiong and Di Qing immediately frightened Zhu Yuanzhang in neighboring Hebei Province. He hurriedly dispatched his eldest son Zhu Di, commanded generals Lan Yu, Deng Tianwang, Sheng Yong and an army of 50,000 to set up defenses along the Yellow River.
Qin Qiong and Di Qing knew that it was not the time to start a war with Zhu Yuanzhang and regain Hebei. They just set up a battle array along the Yellow River to confront Zhu Di across the river. They gathered their strength and waited for the opportunity to cross the river and attack.
At this moment, news of the Donglai mutiny came. Since those who escaped to report the news were all close associates of the slain governor, the truth was somewhat distorted when it reached the ears of Qin Qiong and Di Qing.
"boom!"
In the commander's tent, Qin Qiong threw a tea cup with an angry look on his face and said: "A few days ago, your Majesty sent someone to send a message, asking this general to look for Qi Jiguang in Qingzhou. He said that this person is both civil and military, has extraordinary ability, and can be a great general." But who would have thought that Qi Jiguang would let down the Holy Grace so much. Now the old general is leading the navy to fight the Japanese pirates in a bloody battle, but he is causing trouble behind his back. It is really abominable! I will personally lead the army to destroy this bandit! "
Upon hearing this, Zhang Shuye quickly stepped out to stop him and said: "Commander Qin, Zhu Yuanzhang's son Zhu Di is currently stationed on the other side with his army. Mobilizing the army at this time will definitely cause him to move. According to the official's opinion, Donglai County is only a mere two. No matter how hard you try, thousands of county soldiers will not be able to make a big wave, you only need to send a partial division to quell the rebellion!"
"That's right, I almost ruined the situation by being so angry!"
Qin Qiong nodded slightly, looked around the generals in the tent and said, "In that case, which general is willing to go to Donglai to quell the rebellion?"
Under the tent, Qin Huaiyu and Luo Tong looked at each other, stood out together and said, "I will go there eventually!"
In addition, the newly promoted Du??⒐πNaxiao? Caiqian Junxing Hao Jian
Upon seeing this, Qin Qiong immediately said: "General Du has been in Qingzhou for many years and is familiar with the terrain. This time, General Du will be the main general, and Luo Tong and Qin Huaiyu will be the deputy generals. I will allocate you three thousand troops to quell the rebellion in Donglai County! "
Qin Huaiyu and Luo Tong have children's minds. The army has been stationed on the bank of the Yellow River for a long time, but they only train soldiers and horses all day long. The two of them had nothing to do in the camp and felt bored, so they thought of going out to quell the rebellion, not having much interest in the position of general.
But the eager to make meritorious deeds, Du Xiu was betrayed and condemned. ?
Immediately, the three of them selected 3,000 elite soldiers in the camp, took food, grass and baggage, and marched for about four days to reach Donglai County.
"General Qin, General Luo, now that the rebel city is close at hand, what do you two think should be done next?"

Luo Tong laughed and said: "This Donglai County only has two thousand soldiers. It has never experienced any major battles. How can it stop us, the three thousand elites of hundreds of battles? When the time comes, we can swarm up and break the city with all our strength!"
"No!"
Qin Huaiyu shook his head and said: "As the art of war goes, attacking the city is the first priority. This Donglai County is also a large county in Qingzhou, and the city's strength is probably not as strong as that of Qi County. Even if our army can break the city under a strong attack, the casualties will definitely be heavy. "
Luo Tong immediately asked Qin Huaiyu, "Then what do you think we should do?"
Qin Huaiyu pondered and said: "In my opinion, it is better to set up a formation outside the city and shout a battle to lure the soldiers and horses in the city to fight. When the time comes, we can capture several rebel leaders led by Qi Jiguang and others. The rebels in the city are leaderless and will inevitably not attack. Self-destruction.”
Du?? rebelled, smashed the trenches, committed crimes, stole glue, and collapsed the corpses. He was in urgent need of searching for appointments and impeding them.
Seeing the general Du?? Eat? Order to feed the scales and make trouble for the cows? I will refute the punishment and say the punishment? The bones will be broken and the heat will be played? The camels will be weighed and the bag will be weighed and the oxen will be raised? What will happen? Tu Huan? Yi Shu!
Qin Huaiyu smiled slightly, and told Du Yunyou to lie to the emperor!
At that moment, the Sui army set up a formation a hundred feet outside the city. Three thousand troops and horses were arranged in four neat square formations. The cavalry was in front, and the heavy armored infantry and crossbowmen were behind. The armor was bright, and the swords were like a forest. The murderous aura of a fierce lion.
The heroic general Luo Tong wore a silver crown on his head, a white robe, a white horse on his crotch, and a silver spear eight feet in his hand. He stood majestically in front of the formation and shouted loudly.
The soldiers and civilians in the city had never seen such a formation before. They were all scared to death and hurriedly asked Qi Jiguang to take charge of the overall situation.
Although Qi Jiguang was unwilling to resist the Sui army, he also knew that the county governor was a county chief. Even if they were guilty, they would never be lynched. Now they must have been regarded as traitors by the court, and the soldiers and civilians in the city beat them to death. The governor wanted to save Qi Jiguang. Regardless of whether he wanted to or not, in the eyes of the court, he must be the leader of the rebels.
Qi Jiguang was not afraid of death, but he was not willing to die in an ordinary way before he could use his talents, and he was not willing to be buried with the mediocre and incompetent county guard. In desperation, Qi Jiguang could only choose to lead his army to resist the Sui army, and slowly looked for opportunities to clarify the facts.
While Luo Tong was shouting and cursing, he suddenly saw the city gate slowly opening and a group of soldiers and horses forming a formation with their backs against the city wall. A military general in full armor slowly rode out of the formation, raised his hands towards Luo Tong and said, "Qi Jiguang has seen General Luo!"
"Are you Qi Jiguang?"
Qin Huaiyu, who was behind Luo Tong, heard this and slowly rode forward. He looked Qi Jiguang up and down for a while and said, "Looking at your appearance, you don't seem to be a treacherous villain. Why are you so ignorant? The general who protects children is acting right now. He led the army in a bloody battle with the Japanese pirates at sea. As a lieutenant general, he should have wholeheartedly maintained local security, so why did he cause trouble in the rear?"
When Qi Jiguang heard this, he was immediately overjoyed. What he needed was a chance to defend himself. He hurriedly handed over his hand and said, "Return to the general. It's not that Qi Jiguang is ignorant of the truth. It's because everything happened for a reason. It was a helpless move for the general!"
"quibble!"
Qi Jiguang was about to defend himself, but Luo Tong beside Qin Huaiyu couldn't help it anymore and interrupted sharply: "The murder of Shangguan Xing is a conspiracy. Now that our army is approaching, it's okay if you don't open the city and surrender quickly. What else do you want?" If you talk cleverly in front of the battle, take a shot from me!"
"Ding dong, it has been detected that Luo Tong has entered a fighting state, his force is +4, his base force is 96, and his current force has increased to 100."
