Chapter Ninety-Four, The Crisis in Xi'an 8

Ziyi said: "You can't put it, you can't fight it, it's ......."

His attitude was a little negative, and he wished that these people would make the difficulties bigger, and then the Qin army would be able to avoid fighting with the official army.

Li Dang looked at everyone and said: "Although we can't stop Zuo Liangyu in Huayin, but we can't let him rush to Xi'an happily...... In a word, just don't let him pass quickly. ”

Someone shook his head: "If this is in the mountains, maybe it is possible, Huayin City is outside the main road field, which is conducive to the galloping of cavalry, this idea may not come true." ”

Ziyi secretly glared at this person, thinking to himself what kind of mouth do you have, let him go to work, and when he knew that this method would not work, Zuo Liangyu would have already passed, so as not to bother.

But he couldn't say that in his mouth, so Ziyi said: "Don't fight, the official army is powerful, we can only outwit, not the enemy, the current military situation is like fire, we can't delay, Li Kang, I'll give you five hundred people, try to drag Zuo Liangyu as long as you can, we can drag it for as long as we can, and we'll find a way here." ”

Li Dare took the order and went out to order troops.

Ziyi waited for Li Dare to set off, and then yawned lazily: "It's all gone, I have my own arrangements." ”

When everyone left, Ziyi came to see Fan Ju and told him about Fang Cai, Fan Ju smiled and said: "You did a good job, we just want to let Zuo Liangyu go over, and then follow behind the official army, act when the opportunity arises, and when the blood under Xi'an City is flowing and both sides are exhausted, let's rush over and succeed in one fell swoop." ”

Ziyi was very happy: "Fan Xiang's idea is too good, Guan Zhuang stabs the tiger, killing two birds with one stone." ”

Fan Ju's eyes narrowed: "I just thought of Li Gan, this person is too close to Li Yan, if Li Yan can die under the city of Xi'an, it would be the best, but once he is alive, Li Kang will inevitably take care of him, so in my opinion, it is better to get rid of Li Gan." ”

Ziyi was shocked: "Kill Li Kang?" But as you said, this will arouse suspicion in the military. ”

A cold light flashed in Fan Ju's eyes, and he said, "Didn't you send him to intercept the official army?" If he is killed by the officers and soldiers, there will be no objection in the army. Ziyi was a little anxious: "But what about the five hundred brothers around him, are they all given to the official army?" Fan Ju shook his head: "Naturally not, five hundred people is not a small number, and I am still reluctant." You immediately send your henchmen, and when the officers and soldiers approach them, or when they are in a scuffle, they will secretly kill Li Kang, and there will be no future trouble. ”

Ziyi nodded slowly: "Okay, I'll do it." ”

He got out of the account, called a confidant soldier, surnamed Zhang Mingji, and gave an order, this soldier received the order, beat the horse and came to the school field, just Li Dang ordered 500 people and horses, about to set off, this personal soldier Zhang Ji said hello to Li Dang: "General Ziyi sent me, ride a good horse to follow you, pass the news faster." ”

Li Kang didn't think much about it and set off together.

They walked in Xicheng, walked more than ten miles, after turning a corner, the official road became narrower, here is the only way to Xi'an, and then there is a fork in the road, when chasing Sun Chuanting before, it was here that Sun Chuanting was divided.

Li Dang looked at the terrain, jumped off his horse and ordered: "Dig the road for me, it is better to dig more pits to trap the hooves of the officers and soldiers, and the other people will cut down trees and carry stones." ”

When they went out of the city, they were armed with shovels, saws, and other tools, and when they heard the order, the five hundred men began to move.

Zhang Ji didn't get off the horse, he said to Li Kang: "I'll inquire on the way here to see if the official army has driven over." Li Dare agreed, Zhang Ji beat the horse like flying, and ran towards the way he came.

Besides, Zuo Liangyu, he entered Tongguan in a hurry, just took a breath, and looked around, when the peasant army left, all the food and property were taken away, and the current Tongguan was poor and white, and it was an empty city. He ordered the men and horses to fight in the pass, and after eating, the men and horses left the Tongguan Pass and marched towards the main road.

After walking less than ten miles, two horses flew in front, and immediately the knights were dressed as ordinary people, and they came to meet the officers and soldiers, and the forward battalion saw that the people were not good, and they were ready to open their bows and arrows, but they heard someone shouting: "Where is the general soldier left?" Where is the left general soldier? The personal soldiers of the guerrilla general Shi Kefa have important things to see. ”

It was Shi Kefa's personal soldiers who came, and they marched together and finally came to Tongguan.

The forward battalion ordered a few people to wait for them, and someone had already gone to report to Zuo Liangyu, Zuo Liangyu's heart trembled, and he was a little surprised. Could it be that he was ordered by Hong Chengchou to come to Xingshi to ask for sin?

He was anxious in his heart, and hurriedly invited someone to meet him, and the two soldiers saw him, and after bowing their hands, they said: "On the orders of the governor, there is a secret matter, and I want to tell the chief soldier." Here is the handwritten letter of the Great Decree and the Governor. ”

Zuo Liangyu was a little relieved, if it was Xingshi who asked for the crime, Hong Chengchou would not give him a letter.

The soldiers took out the letter and the golden paint order, Zuo Liangyu read the letter, and hesitated a little: "Leaving two thousand men and horses, can you capture Huayin City?" ”

He was not worried about whether he could attack Huayin, but about his two thousand men. It is not easy for Zuo Liangyu to recruit these soldiers, and after training, let them listen to their orders and work hard for themselves, and now they will leave 2,000 people to attack the city, in case of loss of soldiers and many casualties, he is most distressed. But Hong Chengchou's order could not be disobeyed, so he had to say so.

Shi Kefa's personal soldiers did not understand the meaning: "Lord Hong has already become a bamboo in his chest, this Qin army will inevitably take advantage of the battle of Xi'an City to go to collect fishing profits, and there will definitely be no fewer people and horses pulled out at that time, and there will naturally not be many soldiers and horses left in the city, plus this is a sneak attack, and by surprise, Huayin will definitely be captured." ”

Zuo Liangyu called a strong general next to him, named Wu Guobao, who was his confidant general, and instructed him: "You take two thousand men and horses, go back to Tongguan first." Send scouts and spies to Huayin City to inquire about the news, and just wait for the Qin army to drive out of Huayin, and then launch a surprise attack. ”

Besides, Li Kang, he is busy with 500 people, and thousands of holes have been dug on the official road, and there are also piles of big stones and messy wood in many places, not to mention the cavalry, even if it is a person on foot, he has to climb around and around. Li Dang saw it in his eyes, was very happy, and spat in relief: "This time it makes Zuo Liangyu worry too......

was happy, suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, Zhang Ji came back from inquiring about the news, Li Dang waited for him to get closer, and asked, "Where is Zuo Liangyu?" ”

Zhang Ji shook his head: "I went out for more than 20 miles, and I didn't see a single officer or soldier, strange thing, did they take a detour?" ”

Li Dare said: "Maybe they are still resting in Tongguan, they ran more than 100 miles in one night, which is enough." ”

As soon as he heard that the official army had not yet come, Li Dang was relieved and still commanded the Qin army to set up roadblocks.

Zhang Ji reached into his arms, touched the hidden short knife, and glanced at the way he came, he knew that in a few moments, the official army was about to appear.
