To the west of Nanjun City is Zhijiang City, to the southwest of Zhijiang City is Yidu, and to the southeast of Yidu is Songzi City.
On the map, Zhijiang City and Songzi City are almost directly opposite each other.
The reason why the Northern Dynasty army wanted to take a detour was because except for Zhijiang and Yidu, Nanjuncheng was the territory of the Southern Dynasty.
Jun Ci killed Governor Lu and pulled out the spy of the Guan Long Army in Zhijiang City. At the same time, he killed the people sent by Zhou Guang to Nanjun City to summon the Guan Long Army. This undoubtedly made Zhou Guang and even Xu Meng know that they wanted to follow the Zhijiang Army.
The road from Jiangcheng and Yidu City to Songzi City is impassable.
Zhou Guang defended Songzi City tightly. If Liu Zongruo was determined to attack the city, Zhou Guang could only hold out for five days at most, even if his hands and eyes could reach the sky.
If Xu Meng comes from Zhijiang City, Jun Ci does not need to make things difficult for them. He only needs to block some procedures to prevent them from responding in time.
"Guan Long's army had to give up marching from Zhijiang City to Songzi City along Yidu City." Huo Qingqu stood beside Jun Ci and couldn't help but said happily.
"Leave Nanjun City and follow Jiangling County. We only need to capture Jiang'an County and then we can reach the gate of Nanping County." Liucheng also suddenly understood, "Surround Wei and rescue Zhao!"
Nanping County stationed 50,000 troops, but 30,000 soldiers fought hard against Zhou Guang in Songzi City, and all they took away were elites. As long as Xu Meng captured Jiang'an County, he could besiege the city for Nanping County.
"We only need to pass the news to Nanping County in advance, so that the Southern Dynasty Army staying in Nanping County can surprise the Guanlong Army and ambush them!" Huo Qing channeled.
He spoke with great enthusiasm and no scruples, because he hated the Zhou family, especially Zhou Guang, and naturally hated the Guan Long Army under Zhou Guang.
Moreover, Huo Qingqu himself was not a soldier of the Northern Dynasty, he was only loyal to Jun Ci.
Qin Xiao and others were extremely silent.
They knew that Guan Longjun and them were at a point of death, and they had no discomfort in killing Guan Longjun with their own hands. However, the Southern Dynasty Army had to betray Guan Longjun's whereabouts to the Southern Dynasty Army.
For them, this is no different from collaborating with the enemy, and it is inevitable that they feel that they cannot overcome that hurdle.
How sharp is Jun Ci?
Knowing everyone's thoughts clearly, she said: "We don't need to reveal the whereabouts of Guan Longjun. Xu Meng will not be so desperate. Qin Xiao, take three thousand people to guard Zhijiang City."
Qin Xiao didn't know why, but he felt relieved: "General, I'll go now."
"The general is too kind to Qin and the others." Huo Qingqu said politely after everyone had left.
"A gentleman does what he does and what he doesn't do." Jun Ci didn't think there was anything wrong with Qin Xiao and the others. "If they don't hesitate to unite with the enemy to kill the Guanlong army in order to survive today, I will not dare to reuse them in the future."
Jun Ci herself was not a very glamorous person, otherwise she would not have cooperated with Song Po. Although Song Po was her prisoner of war at that time, he was still an enemy in essence.
After all, Qin Xiao and the others had just entered the battlefield, and their family and country were more important than anything else. Jun Ci was somewhat appreciative of them.
Huo Qingqu thought for a while and said with a smile: "They are different from what the general and I have experienced. It is only reasonable that they have a burning heart. They have such a heart, but they have no objection to the general's use of Song Po. This shows that they have a burning heart for the general.
loyalty."
Jun Ci turned his eyes and glanced at Huo Qingqu: "Do you still want to say who Songzi City is?"
Huo Qingqu laughed: "I can't hide it from the general. Commander Qin's reaction to this was far beyond the expectations of his subordinates."
Songzi City was forced to abandon the city, and who was the most unwilling to do so was naturally Qin Xiao.
The incident that caused the abandonment of Songzi City was when Jun Ci sent the heads of more than a dozen generals of the Guanlong Army to Zhou Guang. Zhou Guang, out of grief and anger, blamed Liu Zong for the crime, which created the current situation.
After leaving Songzi City, Huo Qingqu had been worried that this matter would become a knot in Qin Xiao's mind.
"To be honest, general, my subordinates accidentally overheard Commander Qin scolding several building owners that day." Huo Qingqu didn't want to mention this at all, as he was suspected of provoking.
But when Jun Ci mentioned this, Huo Qingqu simply said it.
Wu Zheng blindly worshiped Jun Ci, and did not blame Jun Ci for this matter at all. The few building owners who complained may not have much different intentions, but after all, they fought bravely and paid such a heavy price to win the first place in life.
Not everyone in this city is like Qin Xiao and Wu Zheng, who can let go of their attachments because of their loyalty to the king.
This is merit and the experience of a general!
It is more likely to be a feat that will bring glory to the family!
Someone lamented: "It would have been nice if the general had not given his head to Zhou Guang."
Wu Zheng's eyes immediately turned red: "Are you questioning the general? Without the general, do you have the courage to stand here? Where did your martial arts come from? What does your statement mean to White Eyed Wolf?"
The person being accused also lost his composure and started arguing with Wu Zheng.
Later, Qin Xiao came: "We are the Central Guards, and we are the general's subordinates. The general's honor is our honor, and the general's humiliation is our humiliation! The leader of Wu Ban is right, if there is no general, we
I’m afraid we can’t even take Yidu City, let alone Songzi City?”
Seeing that the man was unconvinced and wanted to argue, Qin Xiao did not give him a chance: "You may want to say that if there is no general, we will not be implicated in going to the battlefield."
Seeing that the man was choked, Qin Xiao sneered and said: "When your martial arts skills are getting better and better, why don't you blame the general? When you kill the bandits and make money and make your family rich, why don't you blame the general? When you enter the city and you are not bullied by the other three armies.
, how can you not blame the general? You can straighten your spine and shout loudly to others that you are the Central Guards. When others avoid you because of the general, how can you not blame the general!"
Qin Xiao's four questions made him speechless, and finally he knelt down on one knee with a plop: "Commander, I forgive you. I am humble in my position and can speak freely. I am willing to lead the military law!"
Seeing his sincere expression, Qin Xiao calmed down a little and helped him up personally: "You and I are in the same army. Although I am angry with you for talking nonsense, I don't want to use military law to let the general know about it, for fear of hurting her desire to spur you and me.
"
Then Qin Xiao said again: "Because of the grudge between the general and the Guanlong army, the general will not send the head back. I am afraid that General Zhou will not give up. It is not my villain's heart. From what I can see, if necessary, General Zhou will
If I want to have an attack, I might kill a few people with my own hands..."
Who to kill?
Kill Guan Longjun to blame Liu Zong?
No one present believed it. It could only be killing insignificant people. This was in line with the Zhou family's style.
Therefore, whether or not Jun Ci will send his people back, the situation has reached this point. As long as Zhou Guang still wants to stir things up and start a war, he will make this move.
On the contrary, Jun Ci gave Zhou Guang's head and perhaps saved a few innocent people.
The person who had casually sighed now was blushing and even more ashamed.
Huo Qingqu saw all this, and he was deeply touched.
Jun Ci is trying hard to protect Qin Xiao and Wu Zheng.
Why didn't Qin Xiao, Wu Zheng and others protect Jun Ci everywhere?
