"Kill, kill with our family."
Li Yan was also ignited with fighting spirit, waving the fly whisk and shouting with a sharp voice.
"Chen Tong rebelled and committed a heinous crime."
"You must have been deceived by Chen Tong, and your crime will not lead to death."
"My family would like to advise you, surrender immediately and resist stubbornly, the only way out is death."
Of course, Li Yan did not forget to disturb the morale of the army.
Everyone has known since ancient times that rebels will not end well.
Especially after the leader of the rebels is captured, the rest will either flee or fight to the death.
Escape, there is still a glimmer of hope.
Resist desperately?
Not to mention whether you can resist it.
Even if you can resist it, what can you do?
The imperial court does not have such a small number of troops.
Even if the army is sent, there will still be no way to escape.
Therefore, those people had no intention of fighting bloody battles, and all they wanted to do was rush out.
Just rush out and you can escape.
This then led to a situation in which the number of Yuzhou troops became smaller and smaller, and more and more people fled.
…
"Master, they are fighting."
In Henan County, Xia Quan, who was traveling westward, saw the team of scout Liu Muyun.
According to Zhao Ping's request, the scouts were divided into two teams.
The first team provided information to Xia Quan. Considering that Ruan Wendi was more suitable to be a military advisor, Zhao Ping sent Liu Muyun to Xia Quan for fair distribution.
Another team provides information to Ruan Wendi and Zuo Zhigang.
At this time, Xia Quan once again received the message from Liu Muyun.
He said blankly: "A fight started?"
"So fast?"
"Could it be that His Majesty has been seriously injured?"
"Not Your Majesty."
Liu Muyun said: "I didn't dare to get close. I kept listening. The person leading the group on the opposite side seemed to be a father-in-law and called himself our family."
"Your Majesty seems not to be here."
"Your Majesty is not here?"
Xia Quan was stunned again, "Isn't His Majesty going to personally conquer the bandits?"
"Why isn't he here?"
"this……"
Liu Muyun shook his head, "Master, I don't know either."
"All right."
Xia Quan also knew that letting Liu Muyun inquire about the information was fine, but asking him to analyze it was equivalent to playing the harp on a cow.
I could only change my question and ask, "How is the battle going?"
"Has that father-in-law ever been injured?"
"The battle situation is a bit strange."
Liu Muyun said: "The team sent by the father-in-law is relatively weak. They seem to be new recruits without any experience."
"Some people didn't even have decent weapons in their hands. They even took out wooden sticks and farm tools."
"It is said that the troops in Yuzhou are stronger and have more manpower."
"But the people here in Yuzhou ran away after breaking out of the encirclement, without looking back."
"Oh? The King of Yuzhou is surrounded?"
Xia Quan was even more surprised, "Does Your Majesty have that many troops?"
"Yes."
Liu Muyun said: "The father-in-law led only about 30,000 people, but they were extremely scattered. They completely surrounded the people led by the King of Yuzhou."
"It is precisely because of this that it appears weaker and easier to break through."
"Let many of the Yuzhou King's troops escape."
"Master, I have another important message."
Liu Muyun said seriously: "I was watching from a distance, but I couldn't see clearly. I could only vaguely see that the king of Yuzhou, Chen Tong, seemed to have been captured alive by that father-in-law."
"From the reaction of the Yuzhou soldiers and some of the words shouted among them, it is not difficult to judge that this information is true."
"As for nothing else."
"Master, you think about it carefully, and I'll go find out more."
After reporting what he knew to Xia Quan, Liu Muyun went back again to gather information.
"Brother Quan, since they are already fighting, we can't be idle."
Mao Shiba suggested: "Let's rush over and fuck him."
"If you dare to rebel, you are a rebel."
"Killing anyone is a meritorious service. If we kill more people, we will make more merit. We can ask sir for a reward later."
"No."
However, Xia Quan shook his head.
"Why?"
Mao Shiba scratched his head and said, "Did I say something wrong?"
"Shiba Mao, before we come here, what is the mission that sir gave us?"
Xia Quan asked.
"Rescue Your Majesty."
Mao Shiba said.
"But where is your Majesty?"
Xia Quan asked again.
"Your Majesty is not here."
Mao Shiba said: "She must be timid and afraid of getting into trouble, so she let that father-in-law act as a scapegoat."
"Haha, Shiba Mao, you underestimate our Majesty too much."
Xia Quan sneered, "His Majesty personally marched with 50,000 soldiers and horses. Although the combat power is insufficient, the guards around him are absolutely powerful. A mere Yuzhou king rebels and cannot hurt him."
"Then why didn't he come to quell the rebellion himself?"
Mao Shiba asked.
"I don't know the specifics."
Xia Quan shook his head, "But I can be sure of one thing, His Majesty is absolutely safe."
"In this case, there is no point in us heading west anymore."
"Go back."
"Go back?"
Mao Shiba's eyes widened and he protested: "No."
"If we go back, we won't get any credit."
"Isn't that the same as losing to a steel cannon?"
"I'm not convinced."
"When I say return, I don't mean return to Xiping Village, but return to Bianliang County."
Xia Quan explained: "The king of Yuzhou rebelled, but he did not have enough troops, so he could only summon bandits."
"But bandits are usually a mob. They can rob homes and homes. But when they go to a real battlefield, they are weaklings. They can escape faster than anyone else."
"The King of Yuzhou must understand this."
"Even if he can't think of it, the counselor behind him can think of it."
"So their plan must be to pretend to welcome His Majesty, wait for an opportunity to seriously injure His Majesty, and then bring up the matter of rebellion."
"Now that I haven't seen His Majesty, and Chen Tong has been captured alive, the King of Yuzhou is gone."
"That's why the remaining ones will rush out desperately to find a way out."
"In this situation, what do they want to do most?"
"Escape."
Mao Shiba said: "If the rebellion fails, the only option left is to run for one's life."
"Yes, run away."
Xia Quan said with a smile: "The bandits have no worries and they just ran away."
"But what about the local officials in Yuzhou?"
"They have families, wives and children, gold and silver, rich treasures, money and food, etc."
"Do you want to go home and clean up?"
"good."
As if enlightened, Mao Shiba nodded and said, "If it were me, I would go home and take my family and money with me when I run away."
"Most of the local officials in Yuzhou have embezzled money, and there are quite a lot of them."
"Take these coins, change places, stay anonymous, and don't have to worry about it for the rest of your life."
"But, what does this have to do with our return to Bianliang County?"
"Hahaha, Shiba Mao, you need to use your brain more."
Xia Quan smiled and said, "Who are they?"
"Local officials in Yuzhou are the biggest supporters of the anti-King Chen Tong."
"As long as we catch them, even if we catch one, it will be greater than killing ten enemies on the battlefield, right?"
"We have 2,000 bandits and we only arrest one person?"
"We have to arrest seventy or eighty people anyway, right?"
"This is a great achievement. Do you want to miss it?"
Gudong!
Mao Shiba swallowed some saliva, held the Tang Dao at his waist, and said eagerly: "Then what are you waiting for?"
"Brother Quan, give the order quickly. We will return to Bianliang County now. We will definitely catch all those corrupt officials and not let any of them escape."
"All officers and men obey orders."
Xia Quan did not hesitate and immediately summoned all the soldiers and began to issue orders.
"Stop moving forward, let's detour north, then enter Bianliang County from the north, and go straight to the capital of Yuzhou."
"No, Brother Quan, why do you want to go north and take a detour?"
Mao Shiba was anxious, "We are in the west now. If we go directly to the east, we can step into Bianliang County. Why bother to look far away?"
"There are two points."
Xia Quan explained patiently, "First of all, the task given to us by Sir is to rescue His Majesty, and the bandit army was divided into two teams."
"Our team attacks from north to south."
"Even though we are retreating now, if we want to intercept the local officials in Yuzhou, we must abide by this agreement."
"I think Commander Ruan must have the same view. They should attack from the south."
"So, I'm still following Sir's instructions."
"It can be regarded as leaving some opportunities for the brother team to make meritorious deeds."
"Second, attack the enemy unprepared."
"If we enter Bianliang County directly, the time will be almost the same as that of those who escaped. Even before they have time to pack their things, the news of our attack on Bianliang County will reach their ears."
"When the time comes and we scatter, who are we going to chase?"
"So go north first and block their escape path."
"There are Qingzhou's troops and horses in the east, His Majesty's troops and horses in the west, and our brother's troops in the south. Let's just defend the north."
"When they fled north with their families, gold and silver, they fell into our trap."
"It also makes it easier for us to catch them all in one fell swoop, so that no more fish slip through the net."
"Brother Quan has a clever plan, so let's do it this way."
Mao Shiba fell to the ground in admiration.
He felt that he was sure to win this round, and his contribution would definitely be greater than that of Zuo Zhigang. He could be directly promoted to the deputy commander of the bandit army in the future.
He can even serve as the deputy commander of the Flying Eagle Army.
His status skyrocketed.
At the same time, another wave of waiting also conveyed the news to the ears of Zuo Zhigang and Ruan Wendi.
It’s almost the same as what Liu Muyun said.
After those people left, Zuo Zhigang looked at Ruan Wendi and asked, "Military advisor, what should we do?"
