Li Tangshan found himself in the trap of Gang Ningci, although Li Tangshan has always wanted to get rid of this Gang Ningci, but this guy is a scheming character. He was also used by Gunning to steal food, and he also set fire to destroy 10 boats.

Tonight, Li Tangshan suffered the most important loss since coming to the Qin Dynasty, and his face was all splashed by Gang Ningci. Gang Ningci not only robbed you of your food, but also repaired it tactically and verbally.

Li Tangshan locked himself in the room and sulked by himself. Wu Rui also rushed back from Rongjiang, and Li Tangshan also disappeared behind closed doors.

Shi Lu, Wu Rui, Yu Weizhou, etc., everyone doesn't know what to do.

In fact, Li Tangshan was so easily defeated by Gang Ningci, Li Tangshan was thinking about how to catch Gang Ningci in the room, and he must be eliminated at all costs. This guy is smart, bad-hearted, and ruthless, as the saying goes: "Hooligans are not scary, but they are afraid that hooligans are educated".

Li Tangshan looked at the topographic map of the Ocean Mountain in front of him in a daze, and already knew that this gang was on the mountain not far from Xing'an, and the mountain was king.

Zhao Tuo had already taken Longchuan City, and Ren Huan was worried that the line was too long, so he didn't let Zhao Tuo continue to advance. Ren Huan asked Zhao Tuo to go to Xing'an on his behalf to see how Lingqu progressed? See if there's anything we can help with?

Zhao Tuo is the second-in-command of the Southern Expeditionary Army, of course, Ren Huan did not let Zhao Tuo come to visit the mountains and rivers, but actually came to supervise the war. Zhao Tuo asked the blue wolf to do a good job in the defense of Longchuan, and led hundreds of people to Xing'an.

As soon as Zhao Tuo arrived, he listened to everyone's introduction that Li Tangshan fell for Gang Ningci's tricks. Zhao Tuo vaguely felt that Li Tangshan had never bargained for anything under Xi'ou's hands since he took over Tu Ju's Western Expeditionary Army, and he had already known the powerful combat effectiveness of the Xi'ou Alliance, and sighed in his heart how lucky he was.

Zhao Tuo knocked lightly on the door three times: "Brother-in-law, I'm Zhao Tuo!" ”

Li Tangshan opened the door from the inside and let Zhao Tuo in: "Why are you here?" General Ren is afraid that we will not advance effectively, so he asked you to come over! ”

Zhao Tuo nodded, saw Li Tangshan on the map on the wall, walked quickly to the front of the military map, and saw that there were many symbols, arrows and circles drawn on it. Then he said, "Brother-in-law, you already have a plan in mind?" What do you say you need me to do? ”

Li Tangshan nodded and pointed to the place in Motianling: "This place is their important stronghold. The mountains are high and densely forested, and there is a large plain above. ”

Zhao Tuo seemed to have an idea in his heart, and said with a deceitful smile: "Then what are you waiting for, gather the army and rush straight over." ”

Li Tangshan didn't see the treacherous smile on Zhao Tuo's face, looked at the map with his eyes and said, "Those places are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there are many natural karst caves. It is easy to spot during the day, but it is even more dangerous to set off at night. ”

Zhao Tuo smiled and said, "Brother-in-law, let's have a scare snake!" Let them know that our army is pressing, they are already small in numbers, we only besiege and do not attack, as soon as they know that we are moving, they will transfer food, and we will block the main passage. Then it's time for us to perform! ”

Li Tangshan shook his head and said, "Zhao Tuo, you must be careful not to kill the common people. ”

Zhao Tuo nodded: "Brother-in-law, I am measured!" ”

In the early morning of the mountain city of Xing'an, some faint mist has not yet dispersed, looking at it from a distance, the soft morning light is sprinkled in the mountains and forests, and the lush leaves have a deep and shallow red and green. The grass on the hillside, clusters and clusters of unknown wildflowers, bathed in the sun, each Qin soldier bloomed with a resolute expression, and the dew drops on his hair flashed with colorful light in the morning light. Zhao Tuo was the commander-in-chief, Li Tangshan and Wu Rui were the main generals, Li Tangshan was in charge of the frontal attack, and Wu Rui blocked their escape to Guilin City from the Rongjiang River.

Large-scale military operations, Jijun, Rigangshan and Okoningji soon received information. Jijun and Rigangshan advocated sending grain back to Guilin City, while Gangningci advocated staying in the caves in the mountains without the actions of the Qin soldiers.

Jijun and Rigangshan strongly opposed Gang Ningci's suggestion, these grains were exchanged for everyone's lives, and the city of Guilin had been out of food for several months, and it was dangerous to grab this bit of grain and stay here; Gang Ningci thought that he could make a great contribution again, and he could ask Zhao Gao and Yan Le to give him a higher position. In the end, it was decided that Gang Ningci would lead a small number of soldiers to stay here, and Jijun and Rigangshan would send the grain back to Guilin City.

Jijun and Rigangshan were fiercely attacked by Wu Rui's army on the western front, and fled to the city of Guilin in a hurry, losing half of the grain.

Gang Ningci was too cunning, and he appeared and disappeared in the mountains, so that Li Tangshan and Zhao Tuo could never accurately and clearly grasp his whereabouts. Zhao Tuo was so angry that he jumped to his feet, and he didn't have the vigor that he had just come to Xing'an. Zhao Tuo ordered the mountain to be set on fire, and Li Tangshan strongly objected: "Zhao Tuo, you are the boss, I should obey your orders." But don't worry about burning the mountain, so many Baiyue civilians live in the mountain, so innocent people are harmed, and they are not guilty. ”

Zhao Tuo shook his head: "Brother-in-law, you are so kind to a woman, how can you achieve great things like this." Sacrifice a few ordinary people, I will bear this responsibility. ”

Li Tangshan thought to himself: "What bullshit responsibility is this, does the old general Ren Huan care about the life and death of those ordinary people?" ”

Li Tangshan shook his head and walked away without speaking, in his heart, the universal value of modern people, the bottom line of not being able to slaughter civilians has no market at all in this barbaric era.

In the autumn, the wind was dry and dry, Zhao Tuo burned so that Gang Ningci and others had nowhere to hide, and the flames of Zhao Tuo's army were unstoppable, and they cried wolf howls when they were beaten, and they couldn't form an army, and all of them were caught by Zhao Tuo and Shi Ding.

Zhao Tuo didn't have the habit of treating the captives well, so he let Shi Ding beat them one by one first, and all kinds of scolding, howling, and whipping were intertwined, and Xing'an City became a human purgatory.

Zhao Tuo's tough actions made Li Tangshan feel that he had no right to speak in the city, and ran to the construction site with Shi Lu every day, and the only good news at this time was that the last section of the Lingqu was finally completed with everyone's efforts.

Zhao Tuo was also very happy when he heard this good news, and thought: "No matter how good things have been done to catch up, this brother-in-law of mine is really prosperous, and he can help himself every time he has a major good deed." ”

Shi Lu has been living under a huge pressure every day for a year, and today he finally completed the construction, and he lay in bed and rested for a day and a night before waking up.

Zhao Tuo discussed the completion and opening ceremony with everyone, which means that the Yangtze River water system and the Pearl River water system are truly connected, and a large number of supplementary materials can be sent to any small country in Lingnan.

Zhao Tuo said loudly: "I decided to sacrifice the blood of these captives to Lingqu during the opening ceremony. ”

When Li Tangshan heard Zhao Tuo, he was frightened, and hurriedly said, "What! That's hundreds of lives! This must not be! ”

General Shi Ding, who was standing next to him, said: "Lord Li, you are not right, such an important project has already been a great blessing to them with those lowly sacrifices?" I agree with Lord Zhao Tuo! Isn't that right? ”

Zhao Tuo's eyes lit up when Shi Ding was the first to appear to support him, and he had already given Shi Ding a hundred praises in his heart!

Wu Rui shook his head and said, "Although Lord Shi Dingzhao's suggestion is very good, it is not in line with the policy of General Ren and Ji Baiyue. ”

Zhao Tuo heard that Wu Rui was openly against him, and the more he looked at it, the more unpleasant he became.

Everyone agreed with Zhao Tuo's suggestion.

Li Tangshan saw that everyone supported Zhao Tuo's statement, Li Tangshan felt that he was very powerless, and only Wu Rui was on his side, but Zhao Tuo didn't like Wu Rui even more, thinking that Wu Rui was against him everywhere.
