() Yin Qingqi slowly lit a candle lamp, and carefully observed the map around Shuzhou in this hazy warm yellow light.

For Shuzhou, Yin Qingqi is naturally more familiar than Yanzhou, when he first took office, the prefect of Shuzhou had already drawn the map and handed it over to Yin Qingqi.

At that time, the prefect of Shuzhou had long expected that with Liu Yuchen's arrogant and domineering temperament, it was impossible to hand over the topographic map to others at will, and Liu Yuchen had always regarded himself very highly, and he had soldiers and horses in his hands, and did not put the prefect of Shuzhou in his eyes, which also caused the dissatisfaction of the prefect of Shuzhou.

"Miss, what are you looking at?" Qinghong came in from outside, and it was already a bright moonlight outside the window, and it was almost noon at this time, Qinghong ordered the kitchen to make some refreshments and bring them up, afraid that Yin Qingqi would be hungry.

"Miss, if you want me to say, you better finish eating and rest early, this thing is not something that can be studied thoroughly in a while, you see the intricacies on this map, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and Shuzhou is originally known as 'the dangerous realm of heaven and man', and it is not easy to conquer."

There was a burst of worry in Qinghong's eyes, for fear that Yin Qingqi would be so hard these days that she would damage her body.

However, what Qinghong said does have some truth, Shuzhou is indeed easy to defend and difficult to attack, the mountains and rocks are steep, it is extremely difficult to enter and exit, and there is only one main road to enter Shuzhou, one side is to extend into Yanzhou, and the other side is Qamdo, if Yin Qingqi leads the army to drive straight in, I am afraid that he will be ambushed by people on both sides of the mountain and rock.

When I arrived in southern Xinjiang, it was not as flat as Yangzhou and other places, the terrain was flat, the scenery was pleasant, there were mountains and gravel everywhere, and if I was not careful, I might be killed by the gravel falling from the cliff, and Yin Qingqi did not want the brothers to risk this trap.

The reason why Dong Yu lost at the beginning was because he tried to break through outside Shuzhou City, and there was no one in the city to support him, and now in the same situation, Yin Qingqi didn't know what to do.

"Miss, what are you going to do?" Qinghong saw that Yin Qingqi had no intention of giving up, so she sat on the side and accompanied her casually.

"Have all the people of Shuzhou withdrawn?" Yin Qingqi frowned, and what he was most worried about at the moment was whether there were any original residents in Shuzhou City.

"Yes, miss, just when the plague began to run rampant, the prefect of Shuzhou led people to flee from the north gate to the surrounding states and counties, until Huo Jiuling entered the army, a total of tens of thousands of people were driven out of the city and came to Yanzhou, and now Shuzhou is in addition to Nanzhao's troops

, there is no one left, and those old, weak, sick and disabled are all poisoned by the plague......" Qinghong's eyes softened, and he burst into tears.

"Huo Jiuling is so ruthless."

Yin Qingqi frowned, and the hatred in his eyes became deeper and deeper.

"Since Huo Jiuling is unkind, don't blame me for being unjust, I have already thought of the rest of the countermeasures for this matter." Yin Qingqi slowly opened her eyes and looked at Qinghong steadily.

"Miss...... What are you going to do? Even General Xue is not completely sure! Qinghong looked at Yin Qingqi in surprise, she was worried that Yin Qingqi would do something inappropriate if she rushed her head for a while, so that she ......

"Burn, burn Shuzhou."

Yin Qingqi's eyes were cold.

The reason why they were afraid of each other before was because the people of Shuzhou, since the people of Shuzhou have now withdrawn, isn't it catching turtles in the urn?

"But how do you judge which way the wind is blowing?" Qinghong frowned, this is indeed a good idea, but if you change the direction of the wind, you will be burned.

"Shuzhou and Yanzhou belong to southern Xinjiang, and the east wind often blows, if we want to recapture Shuzhou in this way, we need people to go around from Nanzhao to the rear, on the other hand, from Yanzhou to Shuzhou The official road to block it, in this way, it will be captured."

Yin Qingqi carefully observed the topographic map, if the topographic map was correct, bypassing from the west side of Qamdo, it happened to be able to detour back to the official road leading to Nanzhao in Shuzhou.

The last time he captured Qamdo, Yin Qingqi asked people to draw a topographic map in advance, and now he is very familiar with Nanzhao.

"Miss, this matter ...... Who to let do it? Qinghong asked tentatively, An Dexin has a lot of complaints about Yin Qingqi now, and he will definitely not be willing to do these dangerous things.

"I need someone who has the courage and resourcefulness, do you remember the last pair of brothers?" Yin Qingqi smiled slightly, and said confidently, the cold light reflected on the mask, and the murderous aura made Qinghong have a trace of timidity.

Qinghong had never seen the always weak young lady with such an expression, and she had never seen Yin Qingqi go into battle to kill the enemy.

"Miss, I'll arrange it early tomorrow morning." Qinghong nodded silently.

Early in the morning, Yin Qingqi rushed to the barracks, ordered people to prepare grass arrows, wrapped in cloth, and prepared a large number of straw and carriages and horses, and ordered Zhao Ziyun to lead the team from Nanzhao

Set off, detour back to the side of Shuzhou, led the three armies by himself, as a response, Ande stayed on the official road and cut off the retreat of Nanzhao.

Along the way, there was a strong wind, and the carriage continued to fall from the edge of the cliff along the original route, and fell into Shuzhou City, under the action of the wind, the huge fire instantly engulfed the entire Shuzhou City, and the billowing black smoke shrouded Shuzhou City in a darkness.

A group of officers and soldiers escaped from the city, desperately trying to flee to Nanzhao, but were intercepted by Zhao Ziyun's army, and the killing was dark, Yin Qingqi carried the long sword of Qi Yuan, rushed into the camp, raised the knife in his hand, and soon executed all the traitors and thieves.

On the other hand, the soldiers of Nanzhao saw that this road was impassable, and originally wanted to flee towards Yanzhou, and then escape from Yanzhou to Nanzhao, but they were also killed by An Dexin with his own strength and fled, Shuzhou City was full of wailing and burning grass and trees, Yin Qingqi stood and immediately frowned.

Led the troops into the city, Yin Qingqi looked around vigilantly, the fire trucks were scattered aside, and now they were also burned, the fire spread fiercely, and it didn't take long for the walls of the houses in Shuzhou to fall down, and the people turned over on their backs.

An Dexin looked at the tragic situation in one place and stared at Yin Qingqi with dissatisfaction.

"General Yin, this endgame, you can't blame me for not reminding you, right? Although it is to recapture Shuzhou City, but now in this situation, there are no people to live in, you say, how can you explain to the emperor! ”

Yin Qingqi had long expected her to say this, but her purpose was not just to retake Shuzhou by any means, but more importantly, to use this fire to stop the spread of the plague.

Before leaving, Imperial Physician Bi had already reminded Yin Qingqi in advance that this plague was no less than the disaster in the capital more than ten years ago, and there was no antidote now, since those victims and patients had been executed by the people of Nanzhao, there was only this way to make Shuzhou return to its former state.

Yin Qingqi looked at the collapsed pavilion on the street sadly, clenching her fists tightly, she seemed to have felt Qi Yuan's helplessness back then, as the king of a country, the minister of the prince, the prince needed to do, and he had more to worry about than himself, but he still did not hand himself over to the sixth elder brother to deal with, but chose to exchange his life for Yin Qingqi's stability without hesitation.

"In this matter, I will naturally ask the emperor for the guilt." Yin Qingqi's voice sobbed slightly, and she forced back her tears fiercely, so that she would not cry in front of outsiders.
