The Bulei Chu River (now the Jinsha River) flowed rapidly, and the roaring sound of the river could be heard from afar, and nearly 6,000 people from Qi Liang's headquarters marched on the muddy road, and it rained all day for the past two days, and the march was even slower due to the drag of artillery.

"It seems that if it goes on like this, it won't be able to reach Ningyuan Mansion (now Xichang area) for half a month!" Qi Liang rode on his horse and frowned in thought, gradually getting impatient with the snail-like marching speed, and suddenly shouted and ordered: "Call Commander Lu over!" ”

Lu Huixiang led the way in front and didn't come over, but Zhang Jingshan flew over, "Yu Shizi!" Ningyuan Mansion urgent! He threw himself on his horse, anxiety on his brow.

Qi Liang's heart was shocked, and he had a bad premonition, and ordered: "Report quickly!" ”

Zhang Jingshan said loudly: "Ningyuan Mansion is in a hurry, and it is besieged by 10,000 Qing troops!" ”

Qi Liang was shocked: "Didn't you say that Zhao Liangdong's ministry would not leave the state capital in the near future?" ”

Zhang Jingshan said: "Now the situation has changed, it is reported that Zhao Liangdong's department has been partially supplemented, and it has also received the support of the Tibetan and Yi ethnic minorities, so he went south in advance!" ”

Qi Liang jumped off the horse: "Jingshan will talk about the changes in the military situation in detail!" Looking around, seeing that Lu Huixiang hadn't arrived yet, he couldn't help asking, "Why hasn't Commander Lu come yet?" ”

Liu Dexiang next to him bowed down and said, "Go and urge me personally!" ”

The ground is muddy, just take two steps, the shoes will be covered with mud, the footsteps seem extremely heavy, and there is a drizzle in the sky, like a needle, stretching. I couldn't feel anything when I made a move, but Qi Liang's armor was already full of shi.

Qi Liang wanted to find a place to shelter from the wind and rain, but the four fields were vast, the sky was gray and gray, and the whole earth seemed to be shrouded in a layer of fog, and he couldn't see far or clearly.

Lu Huixiang finally rushed over, he wiped his face, and he didn't know whether it was rain or sweat, and asked loudly: "Shizi!" What is the important thing to call the lowly to come? ”

Qi Liang was full of sorrow: "The military situation in Ningyuan Mansion has changed, let's discuss it together!" At the beginning, he was just going to discuss the speed of the march with Lu Huixiang, and the plan did not change quickly!

Lu Huixiang immediately said: "Shizi! There is a gazebo in the front two! Let's go ahead and talk about it! ”

Qi Liang agreed, jumped on his horse again, and took the lead, and the marching team gave way to let them run.

Although it was only Mercedes-Benz Erli, the faces of the three of them were as if they had washed their faces, and the first thing the three of them did after entering the dilapidated gazebo was to wipe their faces.

"Shizi! What's going on? Lu Huixiang couldn't wait to ask.

Qi Liang commanded: "Jingshan! Talk to General Lu! ”

Zhang Jingshan said: "Three days ago, the Qing army Zhao Liangdong suddenly appeared under Ningyuan City, the number of people was about 10,000, they started the siege on the day they arrived, the battle situation was quite tragic, General Miao Renning of Ningyuan Mansion was in a hurry!" ”

Lu Huixiang was not anxious, and asked quite calmly: "What about the direction of Zhaotong Mansion?" ”

Zhang Jingshan said: "The Qing army was not found in Zhaotong Mansion, and General Hu Guozhu of Zhaotong Mansion did not report any abnormal situation!" ”

Although Zhaotong Mansion and Ningyuan Mansion belong to Yunnan Province and Sichuan Province respectively, due to the bending of the border between Yunnan Province and Sichuan Province, the northern part of Yunnan Province has two goat horns, which almost extend to the middle of Sichuan, so the latitude of Zhaotong Mansion and Ningyuan Mansion in Sichuan Province is almost the same, and they are connected together to form the defense line of the Wu army against the southward movement of the Qing army.

Lu Huixiang was even more relieved, the Qing army only marched in one direction, indicating that the Qing army was not attacking in a big way, Qi Liang and Lu Huixiang had the same idea, and murmured: "The Qing army adopted the method of focusing on attacking, thinking that it had learned that our army was coming to help, and wanted to seize Ningyuan Mansion before our army arrived at Ningyuan Mansion, and then repelled our army by waiting for work!" ”

Zhang Jingshan nodded: "The Qing army doesn't need to go to war, as long as they don't hold Ningyuan Mansion, our army will have difficulty in supplying, and they will retreat after a long time, and then they who have been fully rested will take the opportunity to pursue again, and our army will be defeated!" ”

Qi Liang's brows were twisted, extremely firm, and he said sonorously: "We must not let the Qing army take Ningyuan Mansion!" ”

Zhang Jingshan then asked: "Shizi! How to solve the crisis of Ningyuan Mansion? ”

Qi Liang looked at Lu Huixiang, and Lu Huixiang said: "Speed up the march and gallop to the aid of Ningyuan Mansion!" ”

Qi Liang was greatly disappointed, if it was just like this, this Lu Huixiang was just a very ordinary general! "How long can Ningyuan Mansion stay?" He asked. Now that the Qing army has come out, can't we have a little more positive thoughts?

Zhang Jingshan replied: "At least five days, at most ten days!" ”

Qi Liang asked again: "How many days will it take for our army to arrive at Ningyuan Mansion?" ”

Zhang Jingshan replied: "Three days at the earliest, ten days at the slow!" ”

Lu Huixiang saw that Qi Liang was dissatisfied, and asked sideways: "The prince wants to eat this 10,000 Qing army?" ”

Qi Liang nodded: "If we can eat these 10,000 Qing troops, it will be much easier for our army to recapture Xuzhou Mansion." ”

Lu Huixiang squatted on the ground and began to draw a map, and after a few strokes, he raised his head and said, "Shizi!" In order to eat this 10,000 Qing army, there must be two prerequisites: first, Ningyuan Mansion must be defended; Second, General Hu Guozhu of Zhaotong Mansion must cooperate! Unusually cautiously asked, "Shizi!" Can these two conditions be met? ”

Only then did Qi Liang put away his contemptuous gaze at Lu Huixiang, he had been on the battlefield for a long time, experienced in a hundred battles, and was thoughtful in all aspects. "If our army sends out a cavalry first, it can rush to Ningyuan Mansion within two days, and the danger of Ningyuan Mansion can be solved!" Qi Liang said.

Lu Huixiang asked: "Where did the cavalry of our army come from?" "Kunming Wei is still an infantry formation!

Qi Liang said: "As before, all the horses in the concentrated army are cavalry!" ”

Lu Huixiang said: "All the horses of the guards who concentrated Kunming Wei and Shizi are only five hundred horses, and this amount of strength is not enough to solve the danger of Ningyuan Mansion!" ”

Qi Liang said: "Instead of attacking the Qing army with cavalry, we used cavalry to disguise ourselves as a large army to give suspicious soldiers, so that the Qing army retreated timidly!" ”

Lu Huixiang smiled and nodded, and Qi Liang said again: "The second condition, I will immediately revise a letter and order General Hu Guozhu to cooperate!" He didn't dare to talk about others, but Hu Guozhu believed that he could still command.

Lu Huixiang was completely satisfied, and then squatted on the ground again, and said while drawing: "Let General Hu Guozhu go out of Zhaotong Mansion, rush to the front of the Qing army and reach Leibo City, block the retreat of the Qing army to Xuzhou Mansion, and then my Kunming Wei and the defenders of Ningyuan Mansion will pursue together and annihilate the Qing army in Shanlinggang!" "It turns out that people are not without strategy, but just seek stability and truth. Indeed, there can be no mistakes in a war, and one wrong step will lead to a complete defeat!

Qi Liang nodded slowly, and added: "I'm afraid that the Qing army is in a hurry, General Hu Guozhu can't reach Leibo City in front of the Qing army, I suggest that our army can send a thousand sergeants to take a small road to the front of the Qing army to delay the retreat of the Qing army, and buy time for General Hu Guozhu!" ”

Lu Huixiang agreed: "Let Xie Jinglin's 06,000-man team go!" ”

The order was delivered as agreed by the three of them, and Lu Huixiang personally led 500 temporarily organized cavalry to Ningyuan Mansion day and night to relieve the danger. At the same time, a fast horse rushed five hundred miles to the northeast to Zhaotong Mansion.

But the development of things was by no means as expected by Qi Liang and the others, Lu Huixiang's 500 cavalry did not play the role of a suspicious soldier, and the Qing army not only ignored it but stepped up the attack on Ningyuan City, and they did not stop until Qi Liang's army really arrived.

Qi Liang arrived at Ningyuan City and the day after that it was already clear, and Lu Huixiang was ashamed to come and report: "Son! Humble and incompetent, failed to scare off the Qing army! ”

Qi Liang didn't blame at all, but praised: "Although General Lu's 500 cavalry did not play a role in scaring the Qing army away, it effectively contained a lot of troops of the Qing army. ”

Lu Huixiang said: "The military situation has evolved to this point, it is meaningless for Hu Guozhu's troops to seize Leibo City, and it is no longer meaningful for Xie Jinglin's 06,000-man team to make a detour to block it. ”

Qi Liang said: "Yes! But the top priority should be how to repel these more than 10,000 Qing troops? ”

Lu Huixiang said: "What's so difficult about this? Since the Qing army has not cared about the peripheral harassment of our cavalry, why don't we plan this time and lure a part of the Qing army into an ambush and encircle and annihilate it? ”

Qi Liang asked worriedly: "I just don't know if the Qing army knows that my army has arrived?" ”

Lu Huixiang said: "It's hard to say, it stands to reason that our spies should have found out about the arrival of our army, but in the past six days, my advance cavalry has been disguised as a large army, I wonder if the enemy commander will believe it?" ”

Qi Liang said with a smile: "Whether it's true or not, let's set up an ambush for the time being, if the Qing army is not fooled, it will not be too late for us to come out and attack the enemy army head-on!" ”

Lu Huixiang nodded, and immediately said, "Let's go down and arrange it!" ”

Qi Liang finally ordered: "Get in touch with the defenders in the city, and when the Qing army retreats, cooperate to attack the enemy together!" ”

The cavalry of the Wu army appeared around the siege battlefield of the Qing army again, and they waved many banners, shooting cold arrows at the Qing army from time to time, and sometimes suddenly and quickly attacking. The troops on guard around the Qing army were annoyed, and all directions sent out infantry and cavalry mixed armies to drive away, the Wu army harassed the troops and the Qing army if they were about to leave, keep a certain distance, and after the hundred cavalry harassment troops in the south led out the seven hundred Qing troops for five miles, they saw the Qing army's cavalry and foot separation suddenly and boldly turned back and rushed back, and started a fierce battle with the Qing army, but the two sides only made contact, and they fled in embarrassment. The Qing army followed, in hot pursuit, one quickly retreated, and the other desperately pursued.

Qi Liang and Lu Huixiang stood at a high place holding a monocular and observed all this, the two put down the binoculars at the same time, looked at each other and smiled, Qi Liang said: "It's time to attack!" ”

Lu Huixiang nodded, waved his hand back, a herald waved the flag left and right, and suddenly, from the left and right flanks killed a thousand-man team, they quickly outflanked it, and a cavalry force of two hundred people was inserted behind the enemy, cutting off the retreat, and the Qing army with seven hundred steps and mixed cavalry immediately fell into the encirclement.

The Wu army pressed on the Qing army in a tight formation, and the Qing army fought valiantly despite their small numbers and disorganized formation. Due to the fact that there are some trees and barren mountains and weeds on the battlefield, the whole form of battle is complex and diverse. In the bushes, the two armies sometimes fought hand-to-hand, sometimes shooting, sometimes squads attacking, and sometimes killing each other immediately. The two armies are close to each other, swords and swords. The soldiers, with shields in one hand and swords in the other, slashed desperately with all their might.

A hundred-man team of the Wu army penetrated the lineup of the Qing army and cut down a banner of the Qing army, causing a great chaos in the Qing army. The right flank of the Qing army collapsed first, and then the left flank collapsed, and the soldiers in the confusion fled northward, which was the direction from which they came. But there was already a 200-cavalry Wu cavalry here to block it, and the Qing soldiers were unable to clear the direction of the attack, and the battlefield was full of bloody corpses.

After the annihilation of more than 700 Qing troops, Qi Liang reorganized his troops, with sword and shield men in front, archers in the middle, spearmen in the end, and cavalry concentrated on the flanks and began to rush towards the Qing army's siege battlefield.

The Qing army received the report early, did not know the truth, did not dare to fight, quickly retreated, and camped twenty miles north of Ningyuan City!

Ningyuan City was already in tatters, the soldiers and civilians suffered heavy casualties, many soldiers and civilians cried with joy when they saw the arrival of reinforcements, and the defending general Miao Ren Ning Zuo led a bandage on his left arm, knelt on the ground and paused: "Knock on the throne to see the son!" ”

Qi Liang helped Miao Renning up: "General Miao, please get up!" For the hero, Qi Liang felt reverence from the bottom of his heart. Then he bowed deeply to all the soldiers and civilians of Ningyuan City: "Thank you, thank you for your bloody battle, it is because of your heroic struggle that Ningyuan City has been saved!" ”

Everyone knelt on the ground and paused: "Chitose Shizi!" Chitose! Chichitose! ”

Miao Renning asked Qi Liang to rest at the prefect's yamen, but Qi Liang refused, but went to visit the injured soldiers and civilians and offered sincere condolences.

The Qing army retreated but did not retreat, Qi Liang was puzzled, and summoned the generals to ask: "Why do you say that the Qing army outside the city did not retreat?" Don't they know that they are in danger? ”

Lu Huixiang shook his head: "It is impossible for the Qing army not to know that my Hu Guozhu Department has surrounded me!" ”

Miao Renning, the defender of Ningyuan City, brought an injury to attend the military meeting: "The Qing army must have something to fear!" "A few days ago, Qi Liang has taken over all military affairs, and sent Liu Dexiang of the guard team and a thousand households of Kunming Wei to reorganize the Ningyuan garrison, and there are still 3,000 people left in the Ningyuan garrison after the reorganization.

Lu Huixiang asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Miao Renning can't answer, no one can answer, this is where everyone is confused. Qi Liang opened a simple map and said, "Let's not be suspicious first, didn't the spies from all walks of life report that there is no large Qing army to go south for reinforcements?" Knocking on the table and asking, "Eat this Qing army!" Questions? ”

Zhang Jingshan said: "There are still 7,000 Qing troops left, and there are nearly 8,000 defenders of our army in Kunming and Ningyuan, plus Hu Guozhu's troops who rushed over, a total of 15,000 people, should be able to eat this Qing army!" ”

Qi Liang was full of confidence and instructed Lu Huixiang: "General Lu is here to make arrangements!" ”

Lu Huixiang complied with the order: "Xie Jinglin's 06,000-man team occupied Luji and sealed the way for the Qing army to retreat north; Hu Guozhu, who came from the northeast, occupied Wujue and blocked the way for the Qing army to return eastward; To the south is our main army and there is Ningyuan City, and the Qing army should not go south; To the west is the surging Yalong River, which is also a dead end, so the Qing army has entered a place of four difficulties, and our army will annihilate it! ”

Zhang Jingshan reminded: "There is a ferry on the Yalong River that we must occupy, otherwise, the Qing army may cross the river from here and escape!" ”

Qi Liang looked at the map and asked, "Where is it?" "It's not on the map.

Zhang Jingshan pointed to the middle section of a long thin line and said: "Northwest of Ningyuan City, forty miles away from Ningyuan City, there is a place called Langshan that is the ferry!" "The thin line represents the Yalong River.

Qi Liang instructed: "Send 500 soldiers to occupy the Langshan Ferry, collect and burn all the ferries along the river!" On the occasion of the occupation of the Langshan Ferry, when our army launched a general attack on the Qing army, the main attack was undertaken by our Kunming Guard! ”

For a whole day, there was still no news from the Langshan Ferry, Qi Liang was very angry, couldn't the five hundred troops still take a small Langshan Ferry?

At dusk, Zhang Jingshan hurriedly came to report: "The son! The ferry port is an area inhabited by Tibetan and Yi ethnic minorities, and there are some Tibetan soldiers in it! ”

Qi Liang is very difficult now, rash attack will definitely create a big enemy for himself, but if he does not capture the Langshan Ferry, the Qing army may escape from here! Thinking about it, this is not what the Qing army is afraid of, right? Will the Qing army be supported by the Tibetan Yi army? Or will the Qing army have reinforcements coming from the Langshan Ferry? Thinking of this, Qi Liang thought that it was better to take the Langshan Ferry.

The spies in the army reconnoitred everywhere, and the range was expanded to 100 miles without finding other large Qing troops, but the spies did not cross the other bank of the Yalong River to see, Qi Liang felt that not only to take the Langshan Ferry, but also to seize the time to take it.

"Jingshan! Send people to contact the people of the Tibetan and Yi ethnic groups, and ask them to either join our army, or give up the Langshan ferry to our army! Qi Liang commanded.

The results of the contact were very discouraged, and Zhang Jingshan reported: "The son! The situation is not optimistic! The Tibetan and Yi Tusi were very arrogant, not only ignoring the representatives of our army, but also humiliating the representatives of our army in every possible way, and even arrogantly saying that if our army attacked Langshan, it would be against the entire Tibetan and Yi ethnic groups, and they would fight back. ”

Qi Liang frowned and asked, "How can the relationship between the Tibetan and Yi ethnic groups be like this with our army?" Didn't you ask you to improve your relations with ethnic minorities earlier? "Tianshuo Prefecture has formulated a sound and feasible ethnic policy, and the Wutong District is implemented by the county governments, while the Qingtong District is implemented by the Nighthawk Group and the armed engineering team behind enemy lines.

Zhang Jingshan hated and said: "The Fansi of the Sichuan, Tibet and Yi ethnic groups are hateful, they fooled the people, incited the people to fight against the Wu army, and carried out crazy revenge on all the ethnic minority people who opposed them. Some Tibetans also often went down the mountain in groups to loot caravans and the logistics troops of the Wu army! ”

Qi Liang was angry, but he knew that this was mainly due to strength, and he had seen that the Wu army was strong and had the potential to enter the Central Plains, and all the nationalities were not trying their best to fight? Now that they see that Wu Jun is no longer good, they see the wind and rudder again.

Do you want to fall out with Zangyi? Qi Liang hesitated. At night, Qi Liang stayed in the house for nearly an hour, and he stood silently for a while by the window and looked up at the sky; After a while, he turned to the map on the desktop, staring intently at the Langshan Ferry; After a while, he sat down in his chair and pondered, not moving. Qi Xiyin pushed the door in several times, but seeing that he had not responded, he closed the door again and left quietly.

When he was already a uYe, Qi Xiyin pushed the door in again and brought in a cup of strong hot tea. Qi Liang, who had thought hard for a long time and made a decision in his heart, noticed Qi Xiyin's arrival this time, he beckoned to Qi Xiyin, Qi Xiyin meekly walked in front of him, Qi Liang looked at the steaming tea in her hand, and said with a smile: "Sister Qi!" Don't you even want me to sleep tonight? ”

Qi Xiyin didn't know why, and smiled in surprise: "Why did the prince say that?" ”

Qi Liang pointed to the strong tea: "Sister Qi doesn't know that tea is brain-clearing and refreshing?" Now that Sister Qi is still soaked so thickly, doesn't she obviously not want me to rest tonight? "Anyway, it's ambiguous. Ambiguously staring at Qi Xiyin's towering Feng Xiong.

Where to look? Qi Xi snorted, what are these thieves thinking? His face turned red.

Qi Liang pulled Qi Xiyin, hugged her and sat down, his face leaned on her shoulder, the fragrance hit people, Qi Liang took a deep breath, closed his eyes slightly, and was quietly attached.

"Xiyin, I love you!" Qi Liang muttered unconsciously.

Qi Xiyin's delicate body trembled, very surprised, Qi Liang spoke sweetly, but he had never said this, and he was suddenly full of something called happiness. In fact, she knew that when the prince called her "cherish the sound", it was the most gentle, considerate and forgetful time for the prince.

"Sister Qi! I need your help, the Tianshuo Army is in trouble right now. Qi Liang resumed calling Qi Xiyin "Sister Qi" again, and he didn't notice the difference in Qi Xiyin's title at all, which represented his different psychological state.

Qi Xiyin showed a puzzled look, and secretly thought, "What can I do as a woman?" But she still turned around and stroked Qi Liang's face and listened to his next words.

"Sister Qi! Can you take a trip to Lang Hill for me? Qi Liang wanted to use Qi Xiyin's identity as an ethnic minority to go to Langshan to do persuasion work. Those Tibetan and Yi minorities should have a sense of identity with Qi Xiyin! Qi Xiyin's words and deeds should also be more convincing!

Qi Xiyin's body shook violently, and he looked at Qi Liang suspiciously, and Qi Liang explained: "Our army must take Langshan and seal the only possible breakthrough for the Qing army." But more importantly, I still want to have good ethnic relations with the Tibetan and Yi ethnic groups, and I can also promise you to them! ”

Qi Xiyin understood the reason why Qi Liang stayed in the study and pondered, she turned around and hugged Qi Liang tightly with pity, "Shizi! Tomorrow the slave family will go, so why should you worry? She reassured.

Qi Liang was very grateful, and after trying to calm his mind, he said gently: "Sister Qi! This trip is dangerous, bring more people with you, I will let Wei Shi'an follow you, if there is any change, you can take decisive action! ”
