As soon as he heard that there were pursuers coming, Zhang Chenghu suddenly became nervous and asked immediately:
"How many of them are there?"
Upon hearing this, his subordinates said without thinking:
"The enemy seems to regard us as a small force. They only chased over a hundred people. However, they are very fast and will catch up soon. We may not be able to get rid of them... ··············”
Hearing this number, Zhang Chenghu secretly breathed a sigh of relief and directly ordered:
"Since you can't get rid of them! Then kill them! Everyone is preparing to ambush. No one will be left alive in this battle. The battle must be resolved within a cup of tea."
"yes!"
After receiving Zhang Chenghu's order, these elites of the Fengwu Army quickly hid in the woods and waited calmly for the arrival of their prey!
Although the Zhennan Army that was chasing him had about the same manpower as his own, Zhang Chenghu was very confident in his side. Although under the training of Xu Zhaojie, the Zhennan Army's combat effectiveness was also very strong, much stronger than the Henan Army and Qi Army. However, in the small-scale conflicts between the two sides on the border, the ratio of casualties on both sides was about one to two.
But now that he is surrounded by the elites of the Fengwu Army, and they are in an ambush situation, Zhang Chenghu is very confident that he can resolve the battle within a cup of tea, and then continue to move towards Xiaowuling, which is about 30 meters away from Hebei Province. The Henan border is only about ten miles away, so wherever you go you can basically say it’s safe!
As reported by his subordinates, the speed of the Zhennan Army that was chasing them was indeed very fast. Zhang Chenghu’s men had just set up an ambush, and they had already killed them quickly. At this time, these Zhennan Army officers and soldiers were not aware of the danger, and their faces were full of confusion. It’s full of excitement and expectation······················
In order to completely annihilate this small unit that killed Anqing Commander Chen Zongchang and give Xu Zhaojie an explanation so that he could take the post of Commander-in-Chief as he wished, Wang Songhe not only sealed the border, but also offered generous rewards for killing a soldier. If you join the military force, you can be rewarded with five taels of silver, and if you kill five, you can be promoted to one level!
For such a generous reward, many Zhennan Army officers are very coveted. They regard the heads of Fengwu Army officers as the golden key to their promotion and wealth!
However, imagination is beautiful, but reality is very cruel. Just when the soldiers of the Zhennan Army were dreaming about using the heads of Fengwu Army to make a fortune, with Zhang Chenghu's loud shout, hundreds of Fengwu Army came out of the woods, They were like fierce tigers coming down the mountain. The Zhennan Army, which was caught off guard by this wave, lost dozens of people.
Although the remaining officers and soldiers of the Zhennan Army wanted to form a military formation to resist the Fengwu Army's attack, at this time, Zhang Chenghu's subordinates and the elite personal martial arts of the Fengwu Army showed their superiority, and soon the Zhennan Army was defeated. The Confederate army's formation was shattered into pieces, dividing and surrounding the opponent.
After a little more than a cup of tea, there were no longer any Zhennan Army officers standing on the ground. After a quick sweep of the battlefield, Zhang Chenghu led his men and continued to move towards Xiaowiling. Two hours later, they finally Arrive at the destination.
Seeing that his brothers were very tired after a whole night of tossing, and even a dozen of them could no longer walk, Zhang Chenghu let the scouts out and asked his men to rest here for a while and eat some brothers. Drink of water························
While everyone was resting, Zhang Chenghu was looking far behind. Although he knew very well that Jiang Dahai and his dozen brothers, who were tasked with covering and luring him, were being pursued by tens or hundreds of times the enemy force. Down, it's hard to survive and come to Xiaowiling round.
But Zhang Chenghu is still looking forward to a miracle happening!
Jiang Dahai was selected from the First Army to Feihu Camp just a year ago. When he first entered Feihu Camp, he was just a top soldier. However, he was brave and careful, and his personal martial arts was also very powerful. In addition, Feihu The battalion was responsible for many missions of infiltrating behind enemy lines and raiding and killing. The casualties were very high, and official positions were often vacant. Therefore, after repeatedly making military exploits, Jiang Dahai went from being a top soldier to the commander of Feihu Camp like a firework!
Although they only got along for a year, Zhang Chenghu admired Jiang Dahai very much for his courage in fighting and fighting. He was also specially brought with him on this mission to attack Liu Zongchang.
I originally thought of giving Jiang Dahai some experience so that I could promote him in the future, but I didn't expect that things would turn out the way they do now!
The task of covering the retreat of the main force and luring away the enemy's pursuers is very difficult and arduous. It is impossible for ordinary people to complete this task. Therefore, under the circumstances, although there were other options, Zhang Chenghu still felt that Jiang Dahai was the best candidate. , only he could complete this task, so he finally made this painful choice!
After waiting for a full stick of incense, seeing that the sky was getting a little brighter, but there was still no sign of Jiang Dahai and the others in his sight, Zhang Chenghu couldn't help but close his eyes and sighed silently in his heart.
Although personally he wanted to wait for Jiang Dahai for a while, but as a commander, he could not risk the lives of more than a hundred brothers under his command when the enemy might catch up at any time!
Opening his eyes again, Zhang Chenghu regained his composure and ordered loudly:
"Brothers, let's go home..."

Yijing, Governor's Mansion
Late at night, after paying the food, Ye Mingsheng was very exhausted physically and mentally, and just wanted to have a good sleep. However, at this time, he only felt a small hand behind him hugging his waist.
Feeling the breath so close at hand, Ye Mingsheng was a little surprised. An Miaoyi's combat effectiveness has never been very high. She often needed Qiqige's help to deal with her. She was almost exhausted from the fierce battle just now. Why did she recover so quickly now? coming?
Just when Ye Mingsheng was hesitating whether to fight for three hundred rounds, An Miaoyi's gentle voice came to his ears.
"Ms. sir, are you asleep?"
"Um?"
An Miaoyi was silent for a while in response to Ye Mingsheng's response. Just when the very sleepy Ye Mingsheng was about to fall asleep, she leaned into Ye Mingsheng's ear and said:
"Ms. sir, can I ask you something?"
An Miaoyi's voice suddenly woke up Ye Mingsheng. Ye Mingsheng rubbed his eyes and then leaned on the bed. Although he didn't know what An Miaoyi wanted to ask him, Ye Mingsheng felt that based on his treatment of An Miaoyi Understand, she still insists on asking herself at this time, it is definitely not an ordinary thing, so Ye Mingsheng needs to take it seriously...
Facing An Miaoyi's gaze, Ye Mingsheng said seriously:
"Tell me everything you know!"
After receiving Ye Mingsheng's answer, An Miaoyi bit her red lips and said:
"Ms. sir, did Qiqige come to see you that day?"
Seeing An Miaoyi mention Qiqige, Ye Mingsheng was somewhat surprised. In the short time just now, regarding An Miaoyi's inquiry, Ye Mingsheng thought that she would ask about the Murong family, so Ye Mingsheng was very cautious. He said everything he knew, but he didn't say the second half of the sentence!
But since An Miaoyi didn't ask this, then this is a good thing for everyone!
Although Qiqige said that day that she came without telling An Miaoyi, it is obvious from now on that An Miaoyi knew something, but she was not sure yet. Therefore, at this time, if she said that Qiqige did not If you come to find yourself, you are treating An Miaoyi as a fool!
Ye Mingsheng did not deny it. He nodded slightly under An Miaoyi's gaze and said:
"She came to see me!"
Seeing Ye Mingsheng admitting so straightforwardly, An Miaoyi seemed a little surprised. After another moment of silence, she asked Ye Mingsheng:
"Mr. sir, you two..."
Seeing An Miaoyi's eyes flickering and speaking vaguely, Ye Mingsheng was also a little confused as to what An Miaoyi knew.
After hesitating for a moment, An Miaoyi finally made up her mind, looked at Ye Mingsheng and said:
"My lord, please take Qiqige as your concubine! I should have known better!"
Seeing that An Miaoyi didn't mention Xiao Ruolan, and even asked him to take Qiqi as his concubine, Ye Mingsheng couldn't help but said in curiosity:
"Miaoyi, what exactly do you think?"
Faced with Ye Mingsheng's inquiry, An Miaoyi simply did not hide it and talked directly to Ye Mingsheng. Although she believed Qiqige very much, under Jiyue's persuasion, and saw with her own eyes that Qiqige deliberately concealed it and deliberately An Miaoyi secretly met Ye Mingsheng without telling her, so An Miaoyi was somewhat suspicious. Qiqige was not satisfied with her being just a maid here, and started to seek a place in Ye Mansion.
Hearing An Miaoyi's idea, Ye Mingsheng was a little dumbfounded. He said to An Miaoyi seriously:
"Qiqige is not what you think! She is as close to you as a sister and is very loyal to you!"
An Miaoyi was silent for a while after hearing this, and then said to Ye Mingsheng:
"If that's the case, why did Qiqige come to you quietly? And you made her look like that. She didn't dare to sit on a chair for two or three days... ····”
Speaking of this, An Miaoyi looked a little angry, as if she was trying to defend Qiqige!
Seeing this, Ye Mingsheng looked a little embarrassed. He was really playing crazy that day, and all the moves he thought of were used on this prairie wild horse. However, her physical fitness was really good, and she recovered in two or three days. If it were anyone else, I'm afraid he would have to rest for at least ten or eight days!
Ye Mingsheng originally didn't want to answer An Miaoyi's question. After all, it was best for An Miaoyi not to know about Xiao Ruolan. So just when he was thinking about how to change the topic, An Miaoyi seemed to be aware of it. When Ye Mingsheng's thoughts came to mind, he directly grabbed Ye Mingsheng's hand and stared into Ye Mingsheng's eyes, as if if Ye Mingsheng didn't tell the truth today, no one would be able to sleep tonight.
Seeing her expression, Ye Mingsheng sighed in his heart, knowing that An Miaoyi was going to ask the question today, but he still held the last glimmer of hope and said sincerely to An Miaoyi:
"An Miaoyi, this is not a good thing. Qiqige is also thinking about you. This will not have any impact on your life now!"
Ye Mingsheng's sincere dissuasion did not dispel An Miaoyi's idea. She looked into Ye Mingsheng's eyes and insisted:
"My lord, you know everything you just said. No matter what it is, I can bear it!"
After receiving this answer, Ye Mingsheng shook his head, but he could only say:
"Qiqige saw Xiao Ruolan and me hugging each other, so she thought there was something going on between me and Xiao Ruolan. Because she was afraid that you would not be able to bear the blow after knowing about it, she came to me secretly and advised me not to have sex with Xiao Ruolan anymore. Contact······················"
Before Ye Mingsheng finished speaking, the corners of An Miaoyi's eyes were already wet. Two lines of clear tears ran across her face, and she asked Ye Mingsheng word by word:
"Ms. sir, are you and Xiao Ruolan really together?"
Listening to An Miaoyi's inquiry, Ye Mingsheng suddenly felt very helpless. An Miaoyi was usually such a smart and smart woman, but how could she not have enough brains to deal with such a problem? Although he was very helpless, Ye Mingsheng still explained:
"Tian Yu is your brother, and he is also my brother. I, Ye, am not that hungry and thirsty. Tian Yu's life has been miserable enough. I will not bully him in this kind of thing!"
"Moreover, Miaoyi, do you think I, Mr. Ye, lack women around me? That day, Xiao Ruolan promised not to pester me, but asked me to hug her. This situation was seen by Qiqige, so Qiqige misunderstood and thought What do we two have..."
Hearing what Ye Mingsheng said, An Miaoyi wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and whispered:
"I believe my husband! Thank you so much for telling me sincerely. I misunderstood Qiqige!"
"I thought Xiao Ruolan was a decent and polite woman, and she looked at him differently. I didn't expect that she would be so shameless! I will ask Tian Yu to divorce this bitch tomorrow and let her go back to Guanzhong!"
Ye Mingsheng had no objection to this. He comforted An Miaoyi for a few words and then wanted to continue sleeping. He would also hold a military and political meeting tomorrow morning to listen to the preparations of the General Staff and the Chief Secretary for the Yunbin War. An Miaoyi and Xiao Jingren were going to have breakfast with Ye Cui, so they had to go to bed early.
As soon as his head hit the pillow, Ye Mingsheng's eyes opened suddenly, and he looked at the bed with some disbelief. Feeling Ye Mingsheng's gaze, An Miaoyi said with some embarrassment:
"Ms. sir, you resisted the temptation this time, so I should give you some rewards. This is my first time, but my skills are not as good as Qiqige's... ················”
