Chen Liu guessed that if Hua Rong saw such a scene, according to his greedy and self-righteous mind, he would definitely come to attack the camp at night, and once Hua Rong came out, the soldiers lurking at the gate of the pass would rush up and attack the pass.

As Chen Liu expected, Hua Rong was really fooled and came out of Guanzhong, wanting to attack the camp of the Tiger Ben Regiment at night.

The literati rescued by Liu Dazhuang yesterday had already belonged to the Pingbei Army at this time, and after Liu Dazhuang untied the rope of the literati, he communicated with the literati, and the literati was also a person who knew the general situation, and also had some real skills, so Liu Dazhuang left the literati and recommended it to Liu Xia after Liu Xia came.

Liu Dazhuang ordered the guards to send the letter to Liu Xia and then went back to sleep, now he had to sleep well, and then proceeded to capture the city.

The news of the capture of the Tiger Prison Pass did not spread immediately, after all, few people escaped from the Tiger Prison Pass, but the people in Luoyang City would not know that the Tiger Prison Pass had changed hands in a few days.

Zhengzhou

"Dadada"

The sound of horses' hooves began to sound.

At this time, Liu Xia had already led the people to Zhengzhou, and along the way, Liu Xia began to increase his speed.

"There's a scout ahead of the general." A guard said respectfully.

Liu Xia hurriedly said, "Go and call that scout over." ”

After saying that, a dusty scout walked over with sweat in his hands.

I saw that the scout bowed to Liu Xia and said, "Return to the general, report the battle ahead." ”

With that, the scout took out a sealed letter from his bosom and handed it to Liu Xia.

Liu Xia immediately took it, then tore open the envelope, took out the letter inside and looked at it, after a while, Liu Xia's face showed joy, and said to Chen Liu: "The news from the front of Dazhuang, now that the Tiger Prison Pass has been taken, the Tiger Ben Regiment will go to capture Gongxian, Yanshi and other places after resting for a while." The strategy of joining the army was really useful, then Hua Rong was hit by the strategy of joining the army and got out of the Tiger Prison Pass, and then he was taken by Da Zhuang. ”

Chen Liu smiled and said, "That's General Liu's majesty, hahaha."

"Okay, pass the order down and tell the people to speed up their pace and move forward."

"Yes!"

"The general has an order, speed up the pace. Speed up! ”

"The general has an order, speed up the pace. Speed up! ”

Zhengzhou is not far from the Tiger Prison Pass, if Liu Xia marches at full speed with the cavalry, it will not take half a day to arrive, but now there are still seventy or eighty thousand people following, so this trip has been delayed for a long time.

Liu Xia's order was issued, so that many people complained, after all, this day's walk, how tiring it is, some people have mules and horses at home, but they are free, can ride a small donkey, or sit in the carriage, but those who don't have to be tired and tired.

However, there is no way to do this, the sooner you arrive, the sooner you are safer, if the Qing army attacks at this time, all these people will be killed, although this is somewhat unlikely.

----------

In the ruined temple, a woman wearing a white shirt and holding a sword with a mask stood in the middle of the ruined temple, and two men stood opposite her, and a beautiful woman.

I saw one of the men, and said to the masked woman, "Our Lady, the assassination failed, we lost several brothers, and we still didn't kill the dog thief of Dordor . ”

"The brothers killed a Tartar prince before, which caused Dolgon to increase the city's defenses, and many of our people were exposed and arrested, and many of them are now suffering in the prison, how is the Virgin good now."

Another man also said: "Brother Zuo is right, the assassination of Kong Youde also failed, I didn't expect Kong Youde's martial arts to be so strong, but it's a pity that Peony died like that, alas." ”

The white-shirted masked woman frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and said: "I already know what you said, although Kong Youde is not dead, but he lost an army of eight thousand, and it will not end well if he goes back, but Duoduo, Duoduo has killed so many Yangzhou people, and sooner or later he will be cut by a thousand knives." ”

The beautiful woman next to him continued: "Yes, Kong Youde is really defeated, I didn't expect that Liu Xia to be so powerful, I really want to meet the real person." ”

The white-shirted masked woman heard the beautiful woman talk about Liu Xia, and a trace of softness flashed in her eyes, but it disappeared in an instant, and she returned to her cold face.

"Liu Xia will come into contact with you in the future, Xiaolan, you don't have to worry."

When the girl known as Xiaolan heard this, she hurriedly said happily: "Our Lady is really! ”

The two men next to him felt sour and a little jealous at this time.

The white-shirted masked woman glanced at Xiaolan coldly, and Xiaolan suddenly restrained her joy, and said: "The arrested people can't help but save them, after a few Dharma protectors came, Our Lady of Ben discussed with them, and then we got up and went to Beijing to rescue those people." ”

When the two men heard this, a smile appeared on their faces, and they said, "Thank you, Our Lady! ”

Because of the attack on Duoduo, the city of Beijing increased its defense and search efforts, so that many White Lotus disciples were exposed and arrested. Today, many of the heavenly prisons in Beijing are members of the White Lotus Sect who have been arrested.

Most of these sects are composed of some martial arts people, they have kung fu and are good at some assassination operations, although they are not ** organizations, but now the Han nation is falling into foreign invasion, these White Lotus Sect people are Han people, and they began to assassinate the Manchus.

However, those high-level characters who are full of people are all protected by a large number of people, and the best result at present is to successfully assassinate a county king.

On the morning of the 26th, Liu Dazhuang let the Tiger Regiment rest for a day, and then Liu Dazhuang asked the third battalion of the Tiger Regiment to guard the Tiger Prison Pass and wait for Liu Xia's arrival, and the other two battalions began to attack Gongxian under the leadership of Liu Dazhuang and Niu Wei.

On the afternoon of the 25th, the news of the capture of the Tiger Prison Pass had already spread to Gong County, which was next to it, and the county magistrate in Gong County had already fled in fright, because the Tiger Prison Pass had been breached, where did he still have the ability to defend Gong County? Gongxian is just a small county town, and the city is not high, so it is impossible to stop Liu Dazhuang's attack.

Therefore, the county magistrate of Gong County directly left the county seat of Gong County with his wife and children without saying a word, and fled to Luoyang City. After all, Luoyang City is a tall city, and it is basically impossible for thousands of people to attack it.

At the same time, there were also the large and small squires in Gong County, these people usually do evil, deceive the good and fear the evil, I heard that Liu Xia killed a lot of squires along the way, so they were all afraid. However, the people in Gong County did not leave, how could they have a reason to leave when Wang Shi arrived?

Liu Dazhuang didn't need to attack at all when he arrived in Gong County, because the city gate of Gong County was wide open, and the people were not afraid of Liu Dazhuang's arrival.

Liu Dazhuang entered the city of Gongxian without much effort, and ordered a scout to send a message to Liu Xia that Gongxian County had been taken.

Next, Liu Dazhuang's goal was Yanshi, Yanshi was some distance from Gongxian, it was still early at this time, Liu Dazhuang calculated, all the cavalry rushed over, and was able to reach Yanshi at noon. Liu Dazhuang only left a brigade of men and horses to guard Gong County, after all, Gong County is not far from the Tiger Prison, if someone from Gong County comes to attack, the defenders of the Tiger Prison will come to the rescue.

After Liu Dazhuang rested in Gong County for an hour, he led more than 1,000 people to set off towards Yanshi, which was no better than Gong County. Yanshi City is not too far from Luoyang, so the city is not small, and Yanshi is also a place with a very deep history and culture, which has appeared in the Shang Dynasty and used to exist as the capital of the Shang Dynasty.

Because of the squires of Gong County, Yanshi City also knew the news of the Tiger Prison Pass being breached at this time, but the official news of the occupation of Gong County has not yet come, but as long as people with brains know that Gong County must have been occupied at this time.

The squires of Yanshi also began to panic, Liu Xia was coming, what should they do?

I believe that it will not be long before Liu Xia's army will attack, and Yanshi does not have many defenders at all, and it is difficult to hold the city.

Liu Zhong, the general soldier of Henan, has only 3,000 soldiers and horses, and they are basically in Luoyang City, even if Liu Zhong only sent 500 people to guard the Tiger Prison Pass, how many people can there be in the Yanshi in the Tiger Prison Pass?

The squires in Yanshi City, for their own wealth and their own lives, began to gather their own house slaves, and more than a dozen squires quickly gathered a thousand soldiers and horses, but these house slaves were more new than new soldiers, and it was estimated that they could faint when they saw the dead.

At noon, Liu Dazhuang's soldiers and horses had already arrived at the Yanshi City, which had already closed the city gate.

"Regiment commander, according to the news from the scouts, there are nearly a thousand soldiers and horses in this Yanshi City at this time, but these two thousand people are the house slaves of the squires in the Yanshi, and they don't have much combat effectiveness, if you want to defeat them, even a large team of men and horses is more than enough."

A brave lieutenant said to Liu Dazhuang.

However, Liu Dazhuang said coldly: "If it is a face-to-face competition, it is indeed possible to easily defeat them, but now it is not the two armies fighting on the plains. Even if the 1,000 house slaves were in waste, they would still throw rolling wood and fire oil from the city. After all, they occupy the city at this time, and they are condescending, and it is difficult for us to attack the city. ”

Niu Wei also frowned at this time and said: "Now we don't have many soldiers and horses, only a thousand people, and there are no siege equipment, although this Yanshi City is not too tall, but it is also difficult to get in, Da Zhuang, do we have to wait until the general arrives to attack the city?" ”

Liu Dazhuang immediately shook his head and said: "The general's order is to attack the Yanshi before he arrives, although we have few people and we don't have siege equipment yet, but then outwit them, they will always have mistakes." ”

After hearing this, Niu Wei frowned and said, "Da Zhuang, what do you have in mind?" ”

Liu Dazhuang said: "Where do I have any ideas, and the military advisor didn't give me a good idea, and now we can only rely on ourselves."
