Shazhou.

Gewa stood at the head of the city, looking at the desolation in the distance, his face gloomy.

After successfully breaking through Xiaogu County, Gewa sent two roads on the left and right, a total of 60,000 soldiers to pursue the Jin army, but as a result, only one large army carried out its orders, and the other 30,000 soldiers, for the pursuit of the Jin army, obviously did not have any interest, scattered in all directions, seized the city and looted, with this example, the rest of the troops did the same, looting, originally in the rear, led 20,000 guards, but became the vanguard of the front, the first to arrive in Shazhou, etc., that is, three days, until two hours ago, One hundred and fifty miles away, an army of about 20,000 people was rushing towards this side.

There are not many troops around Gewa, only 20,000 people, if at this time, Li Xun dares to take risks and use Qi, pour everything he has, and go straight to Shazhou, it is possible to capture the thief and capture the king first, and directly kill Gewa, once there is no Gewa, the entire Tubo army will collapse without a fight, but Li Xun can't predict the prophet, how can he know Gewa's movements?

"General Ashawan has arrived."

Gewa turned to look, a middle-aged Tibetan general strode over, this person was dusty, but his face was full of red light, and there was a sense of satisfaction in his eyes that could not be concealed.

"See the King."

Ashwan bowed and bowed.

Gerva nodded: "Where have you been these days?" ”

Ashawan looked at Gewa with a bumpy expression and said: "The last general originally wanted to take the small road and cut off the back road of the Jin army, but he didn't expect to take the wrong road and lose his way, so as to delay the military plane, and ask the king to punish him." ”

In the end, Ashavan pretended to be guilty.

Gewa said with a smile: "This is the territory of the Han people, we are here for the first time, we are not familiar with the road conditions, and there are mistakes, which is also excusable, you don't have to take it to heart." ”

Ashawong said cautiously: "The king really doesn't blame the last general? ”

Gewa glanced at Ashwan and said lightly: "You are not guilty, how can I blame you?" ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Ashawang's face was filled with joy, and he was greatly relieved in his heart.

Gewa patted Ashavan on the shoulder: "Go and prepare, there will be a tough battle to be fought next, and I need your strength." ”

"The last general swears allegiance to the death."

Aswan made a reassurance, then turned to leave.

Saddle Moo approached alone and whispered, "My king, why should the king spare him for ignoring the military order and deserving death?" ”

Gewa looked at the back of Ashwan leaving, there was a heavy murderous intent in his eyes, and he said coldly: "Now is not the time to kill him." ”

In the blink of an eye, it was two days later, and Gewa finally waited for the arrival of all the troops, except for a small number of soldiers and horses to stay in the states, he immediately commanded an army of 150,000 and marched into Wu'an City.

Unexpectedly, after the 150,000 Tubo army arrived in Wu'an City, it only surrounded the entire city and did not launch an attack, this situation lasted for several days, and the actions of the Tubo people were beyond the expectations of Li Xun and others, but it was also an unknown thing, but it also made everyone feel nervous.

On the other side, more than ten people, including Niu Jin, Liu Zhan, and Hou Quan, took small roads and mountain roads, bypassed the inspection of the Tubo soldiers, and entered Minzhou.

The purpose of Niu Jin's trip is very simple, that is, to go to his bandit brother-in-law Wang Qun, persuade him to submit to Li Xun, and use this as a breakthrough to drive the bandit forces in the seven states in the western part of Longyou to condense into a force, outside the main battlefield, attack and harass the cities that have been occupied by Tubo from behind, and even shake the entire Tubo army.

"Old Niu, you can go up by yourself later, and we will wait for you below."

In a forest, Hou Quan squatted on the ground and took a big bite on a steamed bun.

Niu Jin was stunned and puzzled: "You don't go up with me?" ”

Hou Quan said: "Didn't you kid say that when you took refuge in Jieshuai, your brother-in-law has broken off with you, the previous time you persuaded Liu Zhan, the leader of the Guazhou bandits, Yeshan was destroyed, so many bandits died, the bandits of Longyou Road hated you to the core, you kid went up the mountain this time, who knows what will happen, I have the old and the young, I can't take risks with you." ”

Niu Jin scolded extremely dissatisfied: "Fuck your uncle, we are brothers, you treat me like this?" ”

Hou Quan laughed and said: "The two of us can't act at the same time, it's best to be separated, whoever has an accident, the other can continue to do things, isn't it?" ”

Niu Jin smiled bitterly, what Hou Quan said was also reasonable, so he didn't say more.

At this time, Liu Zhan walked over and patted Hou Quan's shoulder: "Old Hou, are you saying bad things about me again?" ”

Hou Quan naturally shook his head and denied it.

"Labor and management have heard it, you are a deflated calf, you speak ill of people behind your back, be careful of rotten**."

Liu Zhan scolded, then looked at Niu Jin and said, "Niu Jin, I'll go up the mountain with you." ”

Niu Jin frowned and said: "They hate you, I'm afraid it's much heavier than me, you're not afraid of death?" ”

Liu Zhan sneered: "Everyone used to be on the same road, and it was not so easy to kill me. ”

Liu Zhan is filial piety, dare to act, he led more than 3,000 people to obey Li Xun, Li Xun did not treat him badly, gave him the position of lieutenant general, Liu Zhan's mother was extremely happy about this, therefore, Liu Zhan is naturally grateful to Li Xun, very grateful, but with Lei Wanhai, Li Cunxiao, Hou Quan, Zhao Zhang and a group of young officers, they are very dissatisfied with this, and they despise Liu Zhan, feeling that a person born as a bandit, but surrendering by taking advantage of the situation, can also obtain a high position, they are not convinced, so, in Li Xun's group, Liu Zhan is almost isolated, Liu Zhan's self-esteem is extremely strong, he can't stand the cold words behind others' backs, this time Niu Jin came out, he took the initiative to ask for help, just to prove himself.

Hou Quan glanced at Liu Zhan deeply, patted him on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "You have to protect yourself, if you can't do anything, don't force it, we have other ways." ”

Liu Zhan nodded and did not speak.

Niu Jin's operation, Li Xun specially approved, his 500 patrol battalion are brought out, if persuasion fails, then directly destroy Wang Qun, blame Tubo, must not let the bandit forces of Longyou Road, be used by the Tubo people, because the bandit forces of Longyou Road are numerous, the Han people only occupy a small part of them, they have no sense of belonging to the Jin Dynasty, if Gewa is won over by heavy profits, they may take refuge in the past, this is what Li Xun does not want to see.
