。 ”

Qin An was talking boastfully here, but Qi Rong still didn't change his face, rode a horse, and didn't answer again, saying more to him.

By the time everyone arrived in Jiangzhou, it was already the evening of the second day. When the sky darkened, Qin An wanted to attack it in one go, but because the terrain was unfamiliar, he took a break this night to recuperate. The next day, the two led an army of 30,000, and in this way, they easily passed through two counties and arrived at the oncoming rebel army.

The first person to bear the brunt was Xue Fang, a one-armed man, who was extremely brave in battle, and single-handedly made several teams retreat hundreds of miles away. Gao Xun Tang Yu led the troops to accompany him, and He Shu led a group of brothers below, and under the first battle, it was almost difficult for the Qin soldiers to move forward.

However, there was a huge disparity in military strength between the two sides, the Qin soldiers were fully armed, and the rebel army was mostly bare-handed. Qi Rong brought his well-trained archers this time, and with the strength of such a strong attack, the Jiangzhou city gate was still strictly defended, and the stalemate lasted for more than three days. After several times, although the two sides suffered losses, the siege still did not make the slightest progress.

And this time he led the troops to suppress it, Qin An thought that he could finish it quickly, and he didn't bring too much military rations. If we continue to hold on to each other, I am afraid that we will be the first to wear out our grain and grass. If they retreat and return to Beijing at this moment, the two generals will naturally not be able to hang their faces. After thinking about it, the two decided to camp in the nearby Ge Village for the time being, and then discuss the military.

Gecun has no roosters for hundreds of miles, and there is no cooking smoke for thousands of miles. Most of the fields are barren, and presumably the villagers have long since died and fled, and there is not much left.

After the two led the army into Ge Village, the few dozen remaining villagers looked very simple. The words are only promised, and they are even more respectful to the military masters, and they must be honest farmers. Seeing that the march was short of food, the leading villagers gathered food from each family and sent large bags of steamed buns to the army.

General Qi was naturally a little wary of this. However, the eldest husband could not withstand the difficulty of food and clothing, and seeing that the military rations were decreasing day by day, complaints gradually arose in the army. Even a few bags of steamed buns are extremely precious. That night, Qi Rong's subordinates distributed most of the steamed buns to the people in the army. But he didn't want to, and after a few hours, the many soldiers who were eating on this meal began to cramp in their abdomen and moved weakly.

Most of the villagers in this Ge village were ambushed by the rebels when they inquired about the way.

That night, when it was dark, the gate of Jiangzhou was wide open. Tang Yu led people to guard the city gate, and Gao Xun and He Shu took all the men and horses and attacked Gecun while the iron was hot.

At this boundary, the Qin army was naturally not as familiar with the terrain of the nearby villages as the people in Jiangzhou. In such a dark night, many people had eaten bad stomachs, and the Qin army was like a person with hands and feet tied at this moment, and it was difficult to exert his strength. Everyone in the army must have been in a hurry, and Gao Xun took the opportunity to lead people to secretly approach and besiege from all sides. In an instant, the tens of thousands of troops stationed in Gecun were almost completely wiped out. That night, Qin An Qirong scattered with some remnants of the army and fled.
