Soochow was embarrassed twice in a row, and he was involved every time.
Now sold out by the Song people again, the Ming Cult is growing like a tiger with wings and a dragon descending into the sea in the thousands of miles of mountains in Qingxi Cave.
There may be people from the Ming Cult lurking in every tree, underground, or bush;
Every mountain spring, wild fruit, bird and beast may contain poison;
Poisonous insects and fierce beasts, every one of them is deadly, and the miasma and demonic mist are impossible to guard against.
At a riverside, Wu Jun had just used their horses to prove that it was not poisonous, and they all drank water by the river.
Because they dared not drink water for days, many people jumped directly into the river and choked to death.
Gan Ning looked at the embarrassed soldiers and punched the tree, causing the thick trunk to snap.
"I will not avenge this! I swear not to be a human being!"
Footsteps sounded in the jungle. Gan Ning turned around suddenly and found that it was his old partner Kan Ze.
"Sir, why are you here?"
"The Grand Governor has decided to withdraw his troops. There is no way to fight the war in this damn place."
Gan Ning's eyes turned red and he frowned: "Withdraw troops?"
"The governor wants you to cut off the queen." Kan Ze said weakly, leaning on a wooden stick.
Gan Ning was not angry but happy. He touched his waist knife and said: "Go and report to the governor and ask him to withdraw his troops. I will only take my own troops to cut off the rear."
"General, if the battle is like this, don't underestimate the enemy." Kan Ze said with a sad face.
Gan Ning snorted coldly and said: "Do you really think they are magic soldiers? They are just a group of grass bandits. As long as we don't fall into their tricks and avoid the death spots on the terrain, I would like to see what they are capable of."
Kan Ze sighed and continued walking forward with the wooden stick. Soochow was very embarrassed this time.
Moreover, he has lost both dignity and face, and the battle situation in Jingxiang will most likely be affected as well.
Today's powder keg of the Six Dynasties is actually in Jingxiang, but the sudden collapse of the Song Dynasty caused people to temporarily focus their attention here.
After Kan Ze left, Gan Ning immediately found a big tree and jumped up.
After climbing up and looking far away for half a quarter of an hour, he landed and said in a deep voice: "Give me the order to go down, store the water source, and open it to eat."
His lieutenant felt something was wrong and asked in a low voice: "General, aren't we cutting off the rear?"
"It's about breaking off the rear. If we just defend here, how can we break off the rear? This damn place is their lair. The enemy only needs to bypass us to continue pursuing. Using ordinary methods to break off the rear is something only fools can do."
"What do you mean?"
"Offense instead of defense!"

The return of the Western Army changed the situation in the north.
After subduing the Dangxiang people, the Western Army's strength increased by leaps and bounds. Coupled with its numerical advantage, it was almost able to compete head-on with the Ligustrum people.
Coupled with the guerrilla warfare of the Bianliang Forbidden Army, the situation near Kaifeng Mansion has improved a lot.
Just as the situation improved, there was another quarrel in the court.
Li Gang rolled up his sleeves and shouted loudly, asking Her Majesty the Queen to lead the expedition in person. He himself would be the deputy general and directly wipe out all the Tatars. He would kill all the Tatars in the hinterland of the Northern Desert and wipe out the Tatars.
Zhao Fujin yawned. She had been watching the minister spit on him all morning, and he still had no intention of stopping.
"He's so awesome. Isn't his voice tired?" Zhao Fujin held his chin and thought silently.
Nowadays, Li Gang is the main force in the anti-corruption campaign. He has wiped out many once-high-ranking officials, which has greatly improved his status. Although he has not yet been promoted, everyone is afraid of him.
Who among the officials in the Song Dynasty had a completely clean butt?
I'm afraid there aren't any.
Because of this, they were even more wary of Li Gang, who had the power of life and death. No one dared to stop him from roaring in court.
Zhao Fujin rolled his eyes and said: "Senior companion, give Li Shaoqing a glass of water to moisten his throat."
This trick really worked. Li Gang was so excited that he finally stopped shouting.
Seeing that Her Majesty the Empress was so gracious, he must have agreed with his statement. He drank all the water in the bowl, wiped his mouth and asked, "Your Majesty, when will we go to war?"
Zhao Fujin said: "Let me go back and think about it."
"Your Majesty, I think this matter is extremely urgent, and there is nothing else to think about. It is better to send out troops immediately after retreating from the court! I am willing to be the vanguard and take the lead!"
Zhao Fujin was a little helpless, but didn't know how to deal with it. At this time, Xue Baoqin, who was next to her, saw that Fu Jin was so uncomfortable and bravely said: "Even if you want to send troops, your Majesty will have to discuss it with the officials of the Ministry of War, and then the Privy Council will finalize the details."
, how can you be so careless."
Zhao Fujin felt relieved, nodded quickly and said, "Yes, this is exactly what I want to say."
"Quit the imperial court!" The chief eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs could no longer listen any longer and shouted loudly.
Most of the officials wiped the sweat from their foreheads and carefully exited the Fengtian Temple, consciously or unconsciously staying away from the anti-corruption plague gods.
Several officials gathered around Li Gang, and one of them whispered: "Shaoqing, judging from your Majesty's intentions, it seems that he does not agree to send troops."
"There are bad people around Your Majesty."
Everyone nodded in unison. The bad guy they were talking about was Li Yu, the leader of the Zheng Jing Sect.
Now all the national policies of the Song Dynasty are from the hands of this person, and he is like a new Cai Jing.
"No, we cannot allow His Majesty to be controlled by Taoists, otherwise the country will be ruined."
"Yes, Taoist priests are always outsiders. If they don't read the books of sages, how can they govern the country well?"
Li Gang looked melancholy and sighed deeply, "It is really not an easy task to get His Majesty out of this man's control."

Qingxi Cave, night falls.
At this time in the past, the soldiers and horses of Soochow were always on guard, fearing that a group of Mingjiao people would appear out of nowhere.
Their whereabouts are secretive, their methods are sinister, and they are very terrifying. The sources of Mingjiao are very complex, and they all excited King Ming, who is Fang La.
However, the teachings not only recognize the status of the Buddha, but also integrate the tenets of Manichaeism. The Ming King Fang La is the common descendant of the Buddha, Mani and the Three Purities, and is the torch to save the world.
At this time, most of the Soochow soldiers and horses were on their way to escape from Qingxi Cave. With their strength, although they could not take the initiative to attack Qingxi Cave, they were still very confident in their retreat. Only one group of soldiers and horses stayed still, had enough to eat and drink, and deliberately
Ready to go.
Gan Ning's troops at his headquarters numbered more than 3,000. They once robbed Cao's camp at night and became famous all over the world.
General Gan Ning was sitting on a wooden post, sleeping with his eyes closed, surrounded by soldiers who were waiting in full formation.
A gust of mountain wind blew by, and Gan Ning's eyes suddenly opened. He stood up with his arms bare, holding a big knife in his hand.
Sure enough, soon there was a sound of footsteps, rustling, and I didn't know how many people there were.
The sound was like tens of thousands of snakes crawling in the grass. It made people's scalp numb, but Gan Ning's soldiers and horses did not move at all.
He raised the big knife in his hand, and the bang was shocking!
