"Right General, the bandits will not be wiped out this time, but they will return to the mountains and forests. There will be a chance to slowly plan them in the future. But if something goes wrong in Siyang County, the blame will be inevitable!" Xu, the commander under Meng Zhao, was under his command.

Feng, Chen Chang and others said together.

Why didn't Meng Zhao understand what they mean? The last time he failed in Boping, the Shanyang Prefecture Army entered the southern part of Liangzhou Prefecture, which has already caused many people's ideas and dissatisfaction in the rear. If Siyang County is lost again, he

This right general has also come to an end.

However, he was just unwilling to give up. Seeing that more than 10,000 bandits trapped in the west were about to be arrested, he could make up for the food and supplies robbed by the Shanyang Prefecture Army in the north of Siyang City. However, he was also attacked by this Shanyang Prefecture Army.

If it is destroyed, the hatred in his heart is really difficult to eliminate.

"Crack..." Meng Zhao squeaked the hilt of the sword in his hand, almost breaking. How could he not know about this? But he knew better that the Shanyang Prefecture Army would not really invade Siyang County. Although

The failure of his southern expedition does not mean that the Shanyang Prefecture Army is stronger than him, nor does it mean that the Shanyang Prefecture Army dares to fight back. If he really wants to fight back, he will fight back when he retreats.

The army is not the Yanzhou Prefecture Army, it is just a place of one prefecture. It is full of plans, including Boping, which is a county with a population of only 700,000 or 800,000. How dare you compare with the Tang army?

In comparison, now it is gathered together, because hundreds of towns have robbed the robbers in the west, and the scourges of the bandits in the town are even more harmful. It will be even more difficult not to wipe them out while they gather together and wait for them to disperse.

Moreover, because they looted a lot of supplies from the wealthy and clan families, they would gradually grow and grow just by just a little stabilizing.

Meng Zhao was not the most worried about this. What he was most worried about was that these bandits began to be organized. Once they were connected together in the future, there would be tens of thousands of troops, which would be enough to pose a fatal threat to them. More importantly, because the mountain is

The Yangfu Army first defeated the Tang army to attack Boping, and then rushed into the back of its own side, and robbed the property transported to Siyang County. This greatly boosted the morale of the bandits. With the instigation of the Shanyang Prefecture Army and the lead, now

Many former Liangzhou Prefecture Army who had hidden their names or fled abroad joined in, and even some of the new affiliated troops had fled, let alone ordinary people. If they were not cleared out in time, Liangzhou Prefecture would rise again in the future.

During the war, these bandits could gather tens of thousands of bandit troops in just one's own way, and should not be underestimated.

In fact, Meng Zhao also felt a little regretful, regretting that in order to seize the Liangzhou Prefecture and consume the Shanyang Prefecture army in Boping, he recruited the local area too strongly, and at the same time, he did not send people to stabilize Liangzhou Prefecture in time.

The newly acquired counties in the south suddenly made the people in the southern counties no longer have the hearts of the people. This is also the reason why these bandit activities were not bravely counterattacked by the people.

Meng Zhao also knew that if he ignored Siyang County, the local victims of Siyang County would react to the rear, saying that he would watch Shanyang Prefecture Army in Siyang County and cause trouble for the people. Even those who were jealous of their right generals

People in the position will also attack themselves.

"Transfer to my order, and all armies will accelerate their encirclement. We will deal with these bandits in the southern counties of Liangzhou Prefecture within three days." Meng Zhao gritted his teeth and ordered in a deep voice.

"General, this is not the case...why, the general will still go westward and lead some people to retreat to Siyang County." After the general Meng Zhao made the decision, Yuan Li had to think of another way.

Meng Zhao said with a serious expression: "No, plus the private soldiers of the village, each group of soldiers is only about 5,000. How dare you divide the troops and retreat? The bandits on the opposite side show signs of gathering their shares, and their predecessors are many.

They are all from Liangzhou Prefecture Army, but they are not ordinary bandits. They know how to arrange troops and arrange battlefield rules. With just five thousand people along the way, this general thinks it is insufficient. If they divide the troops again, it will be even more dangerous. After all,

These local heroes cannot count on.”

After a pause, Meng Zhao continued: "Don't forget that there are nearly 5,000 Shanyang Prefecture troops in Siyang County. They can fight hundreds of miles, which is not a simple army, especially Li Feng, who is a trick.

There are so many. If you go less, you will only suffer losses and will not take advantage of them. Besides, they still have two thousand cavalry. Although these two thousand cavalry are at most beginners, they are still cavalry, aren’t they?”

Xu Feng said hatefully: "It's all these damn gentry and wealthy families. When we collected horses and bought them with money, they were all unwilling to come out. Now, they all became the spoils of the Shanyang Prefecture Army. Damn it! These people,

All deserve to die!"

Speaking of which, none of these soldiers and generals have a good impression of these wealthy families who occupy countless land, countless slaves, and countless money and grain. However, for the time being, they cannot move each other, at least before stabilizing Liangzhou Prefecture.

"Okay, there is no need to say anything. I don't believe it. The Shanyang Prefecture Army is really brave enough to stay in Siyang County." Meng Zhao waved his hand and said coldly.

…………

Siyang City.

After the seven or eight hundred soldiers sent to be bait returned successfully, Zhao Xun was completely relieved. So far, all the actions were expected. As for the effect below, it depends on the other party's response.

"General, do you think Meng Zhao is back or will he not come?" Lu Yu asked in a deep voice, and Zhang Yongxue, Guan Lin and Li Guochang on the side also listened in a slight manner.

"What? Has your tail been raised up recently?" Zhao Xun asked with a smile as he looked at Guan Lin and others showing an interesting expression.

Guan Linhan smiled and said, "How is that possible? My subordinates are just concerned about the overall situation. After all, the enemy will not come back to help, it is all related to this place."

Zhao Xun smiled and said, "If it is someone else's concern, I still believe it. But are you? This is the first time I heard that you, who are careless, have also begun to pay attention to the overall situation."

"However, no matter whether he comes back or not, it has nothing to do with us. After all, we still cannot stay here for a long time. If we have the entire Yanzhou Prefecture Army as our backing, we can fight. What..."

Zhao Xunren sighed without knowing it.

What, among all, except Zhang Yongxue, everyone knew very well. Xu Jie was preparing to abandon tens of thousands of troops and the two prefectures and the Tang army in exchange for sincerity to alliance with the Tang army. Then, Xu Jie naturally disagreed with the Shan

The Yangfu Army defeated the Tang army. Therefore, fighting with the Tang army also became a separate task for the Shanyang Army. If you want to fight with the elite occupying the three palaces, you will change the name to the Shanyang Army.

They are really not an opponent. If the Xiaoguo Army had not restrained the Tang army at this moment, they would have no chance to win at all. Maybe Shanyang Prefecture would have been captured by the Tang army long ago.

It would be great if Yanzhou Prefecture could be taken down. In that case, Shanyang Prefecture and Yanzhou Prefecture could be connected with the southern part of Jizhou. By then, everyone would not be afraid.

The news that Siyang County was captured by the Shanyang Prefecture Army reached the surrounding counties within one day. However, Meng Zhao did not return to the rescue immediately and still ordered to encircle and suppress the bandits. Some people did not understand,

Some people even dissatisfied with this. But a small number of people still know that the threat brought by bandits is greater than that of the Shanyang Prefecture Army. After all, the Shanyang Prefecture Army belongs to Shanyang Prefecture

The army, but these bandits wanted to settle down in the southern part of Liangzhou Prefecture. The southern part of Liangzhou Prefecture is also bordering Shanyang Prefecture. It's fine on weekdays, so naturally the bandits would not dare to do anything to the Tang army. But if they were

When the Tang army and the Shanyang Prefecture Army started war, the rear was a big problem.

The Tang army acted like this, not to mention that the person arranged by Zhao Xun had already notified him, even if no one was notified, the bandits knew that the Tang army wanted the right to wipe out themselves. After learning about the Tang army's net encirclement plan, the bandits were also shocked. Especially those mansions

The bandit leader who was a military officer knew the meaning of this.

Those who understand, the experienced bandit leader will naturally not leave alone easily. And those small gangs and some bandit leaders who were panicked because of the approaching Tang army naturally wanted to escape immediately. But soon, their ending made nearly a hundred other troops

The bandits understood that this time, these Tang troops seemed to be serious.

After the bandits discussed, they formed the first alliance, and finally formed the eight families and became eight large gangs. The eight bandits controlled by Zhao Xun were also mixed together, with Zhao Xun's personal guard team leading Wang Yue, leading by Wang Yue, the leader of Zhao Xun's guard camp team.

, a total of more than 1,500 people. It is also the least number of people among the eight great masters. However, it is also the most exquisite weapons and the most powerful soldiers and soldiers. It is not because of anything else, but because of Wang Yue and others, they do not recruit refugees at all.

Join and expand your staff wantonly.

Wang Yue's armoured equipment was excellent because he exchanged some of the seized hands with other bandits, including the armoured equipment exchanged from the Shanyang Prefecture Army.

The number of people in these eight families is quite large, only more than 20,000. But everyone knows that only half of them can go to the battlefield to fight the Tang army. Therefore, the bandits were helpless in the full encirclement of the Tang army.

The horse explored the horse and learned that the Tang army had formed a large encirclement of hundreds of miles, like a large net, slowly covering it.

Wang Yue was not very worried about this. After all, they were not real bandits. There were orders above and they could get out when necessary. In addition, there were more than a thousand people lurking in the mountains in Liaocheng County.

Wait for later use. Furthermore, they also know the situation in Siyang County, which is also the adults setting up an ambush to give them vitality. The Hawkeye Spy from the three western counties has always been paying attention to the development of the situation. Once there are loopholes, they can immediately

Get out.

It is also because of this that the eight families are of equal strength but are not convinced. After making their own suggestions for leaving, Wang Yue agreed without hesitation.

…………

"How dare you do this? You bully too much!" Meng Zhao's face turned blue and he roared angrily.

In the tent of the commander, Yuan Li, Chen Chang, Xu Feng and Wu Meng, who rushed back with two thousand people, also sat on both sides of his hands with an ugly expression.

"Okay! This Li Feng is good. In order to force me to return, he actually used such a method! It's so damn!" Meng Zhao's fist creaked, and the anger in his heart was conceivable.

The reason was nothing else. The soldiers reported the news the day before yesterday, but Meng Zhao ignored it. Instead, he led his army to fight. During the process of moving forward, he wiped out a group of 3,000 bandits. Although he knew that the other party was really a bandit.

More than 500 people, the rest were just ordinary people. But the harvest still satisfies him.

But soon, today, June 5th, he received the news again, from Siyang County. But this news made him feel uncomfortable and had to consider it carefully.

After the Shanyang Prefecture Army broke the city on June 2nd, after noon that day, it moved away 30,000 people to the south and ransacked the large households and treasury in Siyang City. However, due to the inaction of the Tang army, within just two days,

The Shanyang Prefecture Army in Siyang City began to become unscrupulous. It broke through dozens of forts, towns, and villages in Siyang County, and robbed countless property. Then, on June 4th, it went north from the south to the north.

Yangfu Army. On the afternoon of the same day, the 5,000 army once again moved nearly 50,000 people in Siyang County to the south, and the opportunity made Siyang County an empty county.

Meng Zhao did not expect that reinforcements from the Shanyang Prefecture Army would go north. Perhaps the spies had found out, but they were not clear about the situation in the rear. They had not yet learned about Meng Zhao's route among the five armies. But the Five Thousand Mountain Yang Prefectures

This is an unchangeable fact. He can tolerate the entry of the enemy, and the general and even the officials in the rear can see the situation in Siyang County and give him support. But now, the Shanyang Prefecture Army is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so powerful that it is so

The plan has already prevented him from sitting there and ignoring him.

The total population of Siyang County is only 120,000 to 100,000, and more than half of it was transported away by the Shanyang Prefecture Army twice. Do you think Meng Zhao can ignore it? If he ignores it, he believes that the Shanyang Prefecture Army

The next time it will be thick and the remaining people will be moved away.

Without the people, what else can Siyang County do? Now, the actions of the Shanyang Prefecture Army have left him with no way out.

"Wumeng, I will leave you a thousand soldiers and all the village warriors, stay here to fight for me. Do not let the bandits know the news. The remaining four thousand people will immediately follow the general back to Siyang to help.

County.” Meng Zhao ordered with bitterness.

Although Wu Meng and Meng Zhao were acting secretly, they could not hide it from the people of the Hawkeye Division. After all, this was a mobilization of thousands of troops. Moreover, the people of the Hawkeye Division were always staring at Meng Zhao.

, How could he let him slip away?

Meng Zhao's four thousand people, one thousand of which were cavalry, was the sum of the remaining cavalry in the conquest of Boping's remnants. But he could not only bring these thousand people southward, but would not be enough to stay. After all,

The opponent has two thousand cavalry in his hands. If he faces it head-on and does not have the cooperation of other troops, he will suffer a great loss.

After learning that Meng Zhao had returned, Wang Yue immediately secretly asked someone to notify the bandits. After receiving the news one after another, someone suggested that he rush to the source of information, that is, Wu Meng, rushing away with confidence to break the interception network and withdraw the counterfeit villages in various places.

Naturally, I disagree and am unwilling to fight against Tang Jun.

Finally, only three families, including Wang Yue, were willing to take the lead, while the rest were ready to wait for the results.

A group of stupid pigs, if we leave, how could the other four Tang troops not notice it? Can you still get out? Wang Yue sneered and glanced at the bandits waiting and watching, secretly mocking them in his heart.

On June 8th, the third day after Meng Zhao left, the three families suddenly entered the direction of Wumeng. Although Wumeng resisted strongly, he could not withstand the rush of five or six thousand bandits. As Meng Zhao said

, The township soldiers, it is okay to guard the city walls and forts, but the field battle is far from it! The township soldiers collapsed after a stick of incense. It doesn't matter if they retreat, and the troops in Wu Meng's hands suddenly collapsed. In an instant,

The three thousand Tang troops collapsed, causing the big net to break through a large hole that was nearly several miles away. Three bandits instantly rushed out and fled far away.

You should know that the encirclement has reached this point, and it is only a dozen miles apart. Therefore, before the surrounding Tang army surrounded him and fills the loophole, they must leave in an instant. As long as they drag the encirclement, they will be safe.

.After all, there were five or six bandits in the Tang army surrounded the siege, but there were only three bands here, and they were still bandits who could scatter all over the place at any time.

The five bandits watching behind were stunned. They didn't expect that these three brothers would actually go out. They immediately reacted and immediately commanded their troops to go east, preparing to follow the command of the three teams to escape.

Surrounding the Circle. Unfortunately, when they arrived, the three Tang troops, a total of 7,000 to 8,000 soldiers, had already been prepared. A big battle was naturally indispensable, and the final result was naturally necessitated, and the bandits escaped a little.

, but half of them were still intercepted and returned. As for the remaining three or four thousand people, they were all dead at the hands of the Tang army.

The remaining bandits had no choice but to retreat westward. At this moment, it was too late for them to regret it. After all, after the loophole appeared once, they would naturally take advantage of the situation to make up for it. In addition, three teams were missing, and three or four thousand were lost.

The remaining people were already difficult to break through the Tang army's interception. So the bandits who were caught in the ordinary people immediately threw down their weapons and turned home. As for the rest, they also began to escape and scattered around.

"Meng Zhao finally returns to the army!" Zhao Xun said with a smile after receiving the news that the detectives rushed back.

"If he doesn't come back, he's afraid that we will emptie Siyang County." Lu Yu couldn't help but smile.

Speaking of which, the migration of the people again was also a temporary idea. After moving away the 30,000 people from the towns near the city and Siyang City that day, the people from various surrounding towns were following the Shanyang Prefecture Army in the city to attack the fortress and the fortress.

At that time, they were willing to follow him and leave this place of war. After all, the Shanyang Prefecture Army had moved away 30,000 people, and treated the people well and had a good reputation. The people also hoped to get rid of the unlimited Tang army.

Charge and tax donation. Siyang County is too close to the front line. When attacking Boping City, most of the injured people were from Siyang County.

Originally, Zhao Xun did not intend to move the people again, but the 5,000 Shanyang troops who came from Boping supported us came here. After Zhao Xun asked, he found out that the 30,000 people who had returned had been subsequently arrived.

Five thousand soldiers who rushed to help were escorted back. They came to Zhao Xun's command to listen. It happened that Zhao Xun had no intention of fighting the Tang army to death, but Meng Zhao had no intention of withdrawing the troops. Therefore, the strategy of migrating the people was to destroy the households.

Appeared.

"Send the order to the entire army, let's prepare for the withdrawal of the troops." After confirming that Meng Zhao had evacuated the camp, Zhao Xun also issued an order to withdraw his troops.

"If you keep going like this, wait until Meng Zhao comes back and vomits blood with confidence!" Lu Yu chuckled.

Zhao Xun said: "It is better to vomit blood. After all, attacking Boping City has caused a lot of casualties and injuries to our army!"

"Report...emergency military information!"

At this moment, a sudden hurried cry came from outside the hall.

Zhao Xun and others were stunned, not knowing where the problem occurred.

"Let him come in!" Zhao Xun said anxiously.

It’s okay to go north, that’s... Zhao Xun, Lu Yu looked at each other, and his heart suddenly jumped.

After a while, a soldier who was already soaked in sweat rushed in.

"Report! General, Lord Feng urgently reported that there is something wrong with Yanzhou Prefecture!" As he said that, he took out a secret letter from his body that had been soaked in sweat.
Chapter completed!
