At this time, a plum branch shrunk its body on the top of the tent, because the top of the tent is pointed, there is a pillar supporting there, so the part of the spire, the light can not shine inside.

Yizhimei used real kung fu, put her legs together, hooked the pillar, and then stuck her body up, grabbed the pillar with both hands, and her face almost touched the surface of her feet. [No pop-ups. 】

Her whole body was stacked on top of each other, huddled in the tight spire on top of the tent.

Fierce as a tiger and his own soldiers, neither she was found. They never imagined that this place could hide a person.

At this time, the night was already dark, and the fierce tiger had just drunk some wine, feeling a little hot, he took off his clothes and pants, only wore a half-cut trousers, and fell asleep on the bed.

Yizhimei didn't move, she had to wait until the fierce tiger was completely asleep before she could come down.

This requires real kung fu, hanging on the pillar for more than half an hour, ordinary people can't stand it, but a plum body is light and agile, these years to go south and north, followed his father to steal a lot of rich gentry, among which there are also secret rooms, so the kung fu is very good.

She waited until she snored slightly, then she loosened her hands and feet, let her limbs that were beginning to go numb, and then gently climbed the pillar and climbed down the ground.

Yizhimei gently untied the box on her back, put it on the head of the fierce bed, and stuck the knife on the lid of the box. Then she put a chair on the table, took out a small bottle from her bosom, which contained some ointment, she picked a little with her fingers, and rubbed it under her nose, then took out the incense and the blowpipe, and blew a tube of the incense in the tent.

After blowing this tube, she felt that it was not enough, so she blew another pipe.

At this time, Yizhimei touched an inkstone from the table, and then got under the bed, and with a wave of her hand, the inkstone flew out and hit the leg of the chair.

The chair was knocked under the table with a loud noise.

When the two warriors standing outside the tent heard this, they couldn't help but be stunned, lifted the curtain and took a look, and it was dark inside, so one walked in with a torch and the other with a knife.

The two of them entered the tent, and heard that the fierce tiger was still snoring, so they did not go to the bed, and shone the torch on the ground, and the chair turned to the side.

The other four people outside heard this, looked at each other, and felt that something was wrong, so they rushed into the big tent together, raised their torches, and saw two samurai fall to the ground, and the torches fell to one side, not extinguished.

The four people felt that it was not good, and hurried to see the fierce tiger, but saw that he was sleeping soundly in bed, and the four of them did not feel puzzled, and some people found that there was an extra box on the inside of the pillow of the fierce tiger, and a knife was inserted in it, and they were taken aback, and they were about to reach out to pull it out, but they felt dizzy and fell down.

At this time, the people lying on the ground in the tent, and the fierce tiger also smoked the incense, and slept like a dead pig.

Yizhimei secretly laughed, crawled out from under the bed, swaggered out of the big tent, avoided the patrol, turned out of the camp, and rushed back to the county seat overnight.

When she returned to the county seat, it was already dawn, and Bai Qi, Li Yan and others had already gathered together to wait for her.

Li Yan was very anxious, he didn't know if Yizhimei could get out of the way, and when he saw her come back, he was relieved.

Bai Qi seemed to be confident, and he had already asked someone to prepare breakfast, and Yizhimei told him about the situation last night while eating.

When everyone listened, they all admired Yizhimei's courage and means.

Xiaoqing was on the side, and she didn't dare to squeak anymore, it seemed that she was a little convinced.

After listening to this, Bai Qi said to Li Yan: "It's done, let's wait for the news of the withdrawal of the official army." ”

Li Yan said: "If the official army retreats without a fight, Miss Mei has made a great contribution." ”

Bai Qi said: "That's natural, Miss Mei, when the official army retreats, I will reward you heavily." Yizhimei shook her hand again and again: "I don't want any reward, Qin Jun saved my life, this can be regarded as a reward for Qin Jun." ”

Seeing that Yizhimei had eaten breakfast, Bai Qi asked her to send her to rest. Then he sent a lot of scouts, and ordered all the soldiers to go to the city to defend, five steps and one flag, ten steps and one banner, and be sure to arrange it neatly.

Li Yan didn't know why, so he asked why this was the case, but he smiled and didn't answer.

After a while, the scouts reported one by one, like marquees.

"General Yu, the officers and soldiers have not yet pulled out the camp and moved forward......"

"General Yu, as fierce as a tiger sent a cavalry, about hundreds, somehow."

"General, a cavalry of the official army is approaching our city."

"General Yu, this cavalry of the official army has been sentry near our city for a long time, and then left with a whistle......

"General, the cavalry of the officers and soldiers will return to the camp, and then start to pull out the camp."

"General Yu, the officers and troops have begun to withdraw......"

Bai Qi smiled and said to Li Yan: "Master Li, I didn't expect it bad. ”

Li Yan admired it very much: "The general really expected the enemy to win, but why did the whole army defend it?" ”

Bai Qi said: "It's very simple, although the fierce tiger saw the knife and the dog's head, he still didn't want to retreat like this, he wanted to take a look and see how our defense was." If the defense is tight, the soldiers are strong, and the tiger is as fierce as a tiger, he knows that even if he comes to attack the city, he may not be able to attack it, this is a retreat he left for himself. ”

Li Yan said: "It seems that Fierce as a Tiger was frightened by our Miss Mei. ”

Bai nodded: "He doesn't want to sleep with his head, so he doesn't have to get up." ”

Li Yan said: "Fierce as a tiger fled in a hurry, should we chase and kill?" Bai shook his head: "You can't chase it, the fierce people and horses have not suffered any losses, according to my thoughts, the fierce tiger may retire from the army under the pretext of illness, so that you can deal with the court." As soon as we chase it, the fierce tiger must be angry, so take it when you see it. ”

They guessed well, fierce as a tiger slept until dawn, still can't afford it, the deputy general was a little puzzled, originally fierce as a tiger would not lie high in the morning, so he came to the big tent to take a look, there were six warriors lying inside, one by one was also sleeping deeply, and then looked at the fierce tiger, and he was not awake.

The lieutenant general was shocked and hurriedly asked people to splash water to wake everyone up.

As soon as he woke up, he immediately found the box next to the pillow, opened it, and broke out in a cold sweat. Looking at the six guards around him, none of them knew what was going on, and they were confused. Fierce as a tiger's heart for a while, people into their own big tent, it is as easy as a hand, even if you cut off your own head, it is not troublesome, if you don't retreat, the next time you put it into the box, it will not be a dog's head but a human head.

But he didn't give up, so he ordered the deputy general to take a cavalry and go to Meixian to check.

The adjutant general took 500 cavalry, rushed to the outside of the county, and looked at the city, only to see swords and guns like spikes, flags and flags like forests, and the city was heavily guarded, and I don't know how many soldiers and generals were invulnerable at all.

Meng Ruhu listened to the report of the deputy general, sighed, and knew that he would definitely not be able to capture Meixian this time, and it was better to withdraw his troops than to lose the generals here.

So he consulted with the lieutenant general, and then lay down in the soft car himself, pretending to be seriously ill, and the lieutenant led the men and horses to pull out the camp and began to retreat.

At the same time, he lied to the court that he had been disarmed, that he was seriously ill and could not command the army, so he could only withdraw the army in order to prevent the enemy from counterattacking. After the illness is better, then go on the attack.

After the fierce tiger retreated, Bai Qi put wine in the mansion to celebrate the merit of a plum, he had already written a chapter and reported it to the king of Qin, and at the same time he took out a lot of gold and silver and rewarded a plum.

A plum branch is not a penny. Just said that he was a child, and it was useless to take these silver money, and at this time, the Qin army was also in difficulty, so it was necessary to leave some silver money to recruit troops and buy horses.

Bai Qi didn't force it, and everyone drank happily during the banquet.

While drinking, the King of Qin sent someone to deliver the decree, ordering Bai Qi and Li Yan to hurry to Xi'an to discuss major matters.

Seeing this will, Bai Qi and Li Yan were secretly surprised in their hearts, thinking that something important had happened. They didn't dare to delay, and soon ended the banquet, Bai Qi ordered Lei Sheng and Wang Bao to lead the army to hold the three counties, and he and Li Yanhong and others rushed to Xi'an the next day.

After they saw the King of Qin, the King of Qin immediately invited several important ministers to come, and then handed Bai Qi a letter, and when Bai Qi opened it, it was actually written by Li Zicheng.

It turned out that Li Zicheng had entered Shanxi, and after he and Gao Yingxiang and Zhang Xianzhong divided their troops, they fought against Hong Chengchou's pursuit alone, and met several peasant armies such as the Great Heavenly King on the way, with about 50,000 people, including Li Zicheng's 30,000 horses as the main force.

After Li Zicheng led several peasant armies into Shanxi, Hong Chengchou sent the general soldiers Ai Wannian and Cao Wenzhao to pursue them in the starry night. Both men and horses were cavalry, and they moved quickly and caught up with Li Zicheng near Yuanqu in Shanxi.

But Li Zicheng had already prepared, using the strategy of luring the army to lead Ai Wannian into an ambush, and then tens of thousands of horses and horses took turns to attack and immediately behead Ai Wannian.

This battle made Li Zicheng famous, Cao Wenzhao heard about it, scolded with red eyes, and then he led five thousand iron horsemen, chasing wildly without life, and he must capture Li Zicheng alive and avenge Ai Wan.

Cao Wenzhao originally had 3,000 Guanning iron cavalry, and in recent years he fought against the peasant army, won a lot, and captured a lot of peasant troops. These people were originally very in awe of Cao Wenzhao, and seeing that he did not kill himself, he remained under his hands to listen to it, and they were very grateful, and they were willing to die one by one. Cao Wenzhao treated them like his own Guanning iron cavalry, distributing the same weapons and horses, and training them strictly.

These 5,000 cavalry were extremely ferocious, following Li Zicheng's several peasant armies to chase down, and they also won several battles along the way, but they were never able to catch the main force of the peasant army.

Li Zicheng did not have the slightest fear of Cao Wenzhao, and he even thought that Cao Wenzhao's 5,000 cavalry went deep alone, which was a good opportunity to annihilate them all. Therefore, he carefully chooses the terrain and timing.

But Cao Wenzhao is too powerful, although Li Zicheng has tens of thousands of horses, he is not sure to eat it, at this time he led the army to the vicinity of Yongji, which is not far from Tongguan, Li Zicheng inquired and knew that Tongguan had been occupied by the Qin army, and he immediately thought that the opportunity had come. So he immediately wrote a letter and sent someone to Tongguan, asking the guard to forward it to the king of Qin.
