"My lord, I lived in my grandmother's house in Xichang for many years when I was young, so I am very familiar with the terrain in that area, why don't you bring a team of people to pursue Yan Jinxuan?" Gu Lu said this to Yan Shichong after receiving the news brought back by his subordinates.

He was looking for an opportunity to join Yan Jinxuan's army. And if you want to not let Yan Shi become suspicious and leave Chengdu quickly, I am afraid that the way is to pursue.

Yan Shichong shook his head and said, "If you bring too few people, you will only be wiped out by the whole army." If you bring a lot of people, it will inevitably attract their attention, and then you will have to involve the whole army, so in this case, I don't recommend pursuit, let's see what they do next before making plans. ”

Now he still can't figure out Yan Jinxuan's intention to go to Xichang, Yan Shichong doesn't want to act rashly.

Seeing that Yan Shichong refused to send troops, Gu Lu's eyes rolled, and he thought of a plan again, leaned close to his ear and said, "My lord, there is a clever plan below to ensure that all Yan Jinxuan's people can be wiped out." ”

Yan Shichong raised his eyes and said, "Oh? Let's take a look. ”

Gu Lu immediately took out the map and explained to Yan Shichong: "The border between Xichang and Yunnan is not far away, we can ask our partners on the Yunnan side to immediately send troops to Xichang, and we will besiege Xichang all the way from Chengdu, so that the two sides can effectively prevent them from leaving the country and kill them unexpectedly." ”

Yan Shichong's eyes lit up, and then he calmed down again, and said very seriously: "But our partners over there are only more than 18,000 people in total, if Yan Jinxuan's people want to break through, where can they resist?" ”

Gu Lu had expected him to have this concern. Busy said: "We can first secretly send a group of people to Xichang to pick up our partners over there in Yunnan." ”

In this way, the defense capability of the Yan Party in Yunnan District can be increased.

Yan Shichong waited quietly for Gu Lu to continue.

Gu Lu pointed to the map and said to Yan Shichong: "Since they are taking the route from Kang'an to Xichang, then we will go from Ya'an, which can shorten the journey by half a day." I am more familiar with this route, as long as we travel day and night, we should be able to reach Xichang when they arrive in Xichang. ”

Yan Shichong touched his beard and pondered for a moment, and finally nodded solemnly.

In this way, the most suitable person to meet the partners in the Yunnan region must be Gu Lu's army.

Yan Shichong immediately ordered Gu Lu to take Gu Lu's 20,000 soldiers from the direction of Ya'an and rushed straight to Xichang.

He and the other three leaders followed in four directions.

Gu Lu then led his 20,000 brothers from Chengdu to Ya'an.

As soon as he arrived in Ya'an, Gu Lu said to his brothers: "Since we have long been willing to leave Yan Shichong, then this is an excellent time, and if we are willing to follow my brothers, raise our hands." I won't be reluctant to follow. ”

The soldiers immediately raised their hands in unison.

See this scene. Gu Lu was very moved, he said with red eyes: "Okay, then we will abandon the dark and turn to the light from today and assist Lord Yan to encircle and suppress the Yan Party." ”

All the soldiers immediately responded in unison: "Abandon the darkness and turn to the light." Encircle and suppress the party. ”

"Brethren. Then we won't take the route from Ya'an to Xichang. Let's go in the direction of Leshan until we go to Zhaotong, and Lord Yan will send someone there to meet us. Gu Lu said.

Although he didn't fully believe Yan Jinxuan's words. But since he has the heart to take refuge in him, he must show full sincerity, so since Yan Jinxuan said that they should rush to Zhaotong within three days, then he will rush to Zhaotong according to this request.

Zhaotong is located at the junction of Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan provinces, and if Yan Jinxuan plays him at that time, he can also rush back to his hometown (Guizhou) immediately.

Yan Shichong set off with a large group of people half a day after Gu Lu's people set off, and they also took the same route that Gu Lu took.

When they arrived in Ya'an, Gu Lu's men and horses were already almost in Leshan, so they didn't know that Gu Lu had changed the marching route without permission.

However, on the way from Ya'an to Xichang, Yan Shichong quickly realized that something was wrong - because there were no horseshoe prints along the road, and residents on the side of the road also said that they did not see the army passing by that day.

Yan Shichong suddenly realized that Gu Lu, this kid had rebelled with 20,000 brothers.

Yan Shichong immediately sent someone to inquire about the whereabouts of Gu Lu and his party.

However, he said that Gu Lu had expected that Yan Shichong would eventually notice this after changing the route of the march, so he asked the soldiers to advance quickly along the way.

As long as you get to Zhaotong, it's easy to do, Gu Lu said to himself.

However, the journey from Leshan to Zhaotong is not short, even if the horses run fast, it will take nearly a day to arrive, so Gu Lu is very nervous along the way.

Yan Jinxuan, who was on the march, soon received a report from the front, and the person who came said: "My lord, Gu Lu's army is rushing in the direction of Zhaotong, and it is estimated that it will be able to reach Zhaotong in the early morning." ’

Yan Jinxuan smiled slightly, and said to his subordinates: "Let's turn around and go to Zhaotong immediately." ”

Then he said to those who had come to report the news, "Go to Xichang and inform Xiang Bawang that they will also come to Zhaotong." ”

At this point, Yan Jinxuan's previous illusion of 'going to Xichang' has been achieved, and he is now going to enter Guizhou from Zhaotong with the whole army as quickly as possible.

The person sent by Yan Shichong to inquire about the direction of Gu Lu's march rushed back after half a day and reported to Yan Shichong: "My lord, Gu Lu and they are now going from Leshan to Zhaotong. ”

Yan Shichong immediately sent 40,000 horses to pursue, while he himself continued to Xichang with the others.

In the early hours of the morning, Yan Jinxuan's men arrived in Zhaotong.

In this way, they skillfully avoided the Yan Communists, who had rushed to Xichang from the Lijiang area to besiege them.

Less than an hour later, Xiang Bawang also arrived at Zhaotong with 20,000 horses.

Seeing Yan Jinxuan coming as promised, Gu Lu and his brothers immediately let go of their hearts.

In order to show his sincerity, Gu Lu immediately knelt down to Yan Jinxuan and expressed his willingness to submit, and his brothers also knelt down when they saw this.

Yan Jinxuan helped Gu Lu up with a smile and said, "Brother Gu, we need to enter Guizhou immediately, you are more familiar with the route, please show us the way." ”

"Yes." Gu Lu said busily.

So the three teams of Yan Jinxuan, Xiang Bawang and Gu Lu immediately converged into one team and went to Guizhou in a mighty way.

At this point, this large army totaled 120,000 soldiers.

And Yan Shichong's side is missing Gu Lu's 20,000 people, so now there are only 160,000 people left.

The certainty of our army's victory is much higher.

However, Yan Jinxuan was not in a hurry, he wanted to learn something from Gu Lu first.

So he asked Gu Lu to walk side by side with him.

On the way to Guizhou, Gu Lu revealed to Yan Jinxuan that 'Dong Au is Yan Shichong who has changed his appearance' and that 'the base of the Yan Party in Sichuan is in Kuizhou'.

This is really nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get there!

Yan Jinxuan immediately had a plan for the next step. (To be continued.) )
