"Strategist, it's still early, why do you set up camp, the rebels are ahead, it's better to let us go and arrest them, and then it's not too late to rest." Shi Jin asked with a big grin.

"Alas! Today's negligence almost put the brothers in danger, and I am really ashamed. Zhu Wuhou said fearfully.

"The military advisor has an idea, but to say it, the brothers and others will definitely do it." Shi Xiu said with his fists clenched.

"The ancients had a cloud: the time is not as good as the place, and the place is not as good as the people." We are all from the Central Plains, Shandong, and Hebei, so we have lost our geographical advantages. You have to get the villagers here to guide the way, so that you can know that the mountain road here is tortuous. Zhu Wu analyzed.

"What the military advisor said is extremely true, many brothers have been damaged before, and now we have to be careful." Lu Junyi agreed.

"Finding the way to find people, this is the little brother to do." Shi Qian took the initiative to ask for orders.

"Very good, brother go and be careful." Lu Junyi nodded in agreement and admonished again.

"Little brother saves!" Shi Qian agreed, did not delay, and immediately left the camp.

"The rest might as well listen to Situ's opinions." Zhu Wu turned his head to stare at Situ Changfeng and said expectantly.

"All military advisors are in charge." Situ Changfeng said modestly.

"Brother Situ was born in the army, and he is known as a golden armor general, which is better than our reckless people, please speak freely, don't worry about my brother and others will have opinions." Zhu Wu said with relief.

"What the military advisor said is extremely true, although you are the youngest, brother, you don't have to worry about it, but it doesn't hurt to say it." Lu Junyi also persuaded.

"In my humble opinion, the first thing to do is to find out who the other party's master is, what his specialties are, and what the nearby terrain is, so that he will not be ambushed." Situ Changfeng arched his hand and said.

"Very good, the ancients said: Knowing oneself and knowing that the other side has won a hundred battles, it is exactly like this, a certain has also read the book of soldiers, but he does not know how to use it, he is ashamed and ashamed!" Lu Junyi said embarrassedly.

"Hmmm! Situ was absolutely right. It is worthy of leading soldiers and receiving guidance from famous experts. Shi Jin exclaimed.

"It's so good, just do it according to Situ's intentions, Shi Xiu, Chen Da, Yang Chun, Li Zhong, Ru and other four people, lead people, and secretly go to the vicinity to find a way to catch two tongues. Shi Jin, Situ Changfeng, protect the military division and explore the terrain. Lu Junyi said.

"Yes!"

The crowd received orders one after another and went around to investigate.

What Lu Junyi and the others didn't know was that just one mile in front of them, on both sides of the dense forest, there were many archers and crossbow arrows in ambush. If you rashly enter the encirclement, you can say that you will die for a lifetime, which is really dangerous.

This group of ambush soldiers waited for a long time, but no one came, and sent people to investigate, only to know that Lu Junyi and others had retreated five miles to the village. had to reluctantly withdraw the troops and return to the camp.

…………

At noon the next day, Shi Qian came back in the dust. Lu Junyi gathered again and convened everyone to discuss the battle situation.

"Guarding the pass, but he is a general under Fang La, nicknamed Xiaoyang Youji Pang Wanchun, and he is the most powerful shooter in the country of La, Jiangnan. led two lieutenant generals: one called Lei Jiong, and the other called Ji Ji. These two lieutenants both pedal seven or eight hundred pounds of crossbows, each with a branch of thistle bones, and 5,000 men and horses under their hands. Shi Xiu reported first.

"There is a small road on the side of the West Mountain Ridge, which leads directly to the main road behind the Guan, but now it is blocked by stones." Shi Qian arched his hand and said.

"What do you think about the military advisor?" After listening, Lu Junyi asked.

"The mountains here are high and dense, and there are many shrubs, so you can take people into the mountains from the small road by the Shiqian brothers, but when they see the fire in front of them, they immediately set fire to the back mountain.

We attacked from the front, advancing on the one hand, and setting fire to the mountains on the other, so we were naturally not afraid of the rebels in ambush. Zhu Wu said.

"Good!" Lu Junyi was overjoyed to agree, and immediately made people ready.

The next day, according to Zhu Wu's suggestion, he sent troops to investigate all the way, and when he encountered a high mountain, he set fire to it.

Although the army did not advance fast, it also approached Yuling Pass unhindered all the way and quickly approached Yuling Pass, forming a formation outside the pass.

"Rebellious ministers and thieves, if you don't come down and surrender, when will you wait!" Shi Jin stepped forward and shouted.

"Little Shui Kou, dare to come and die!" Pang Wanchun replied disdainfully.

Raise your longbow and shoot your arrows!

Shi Jin Qinglong flicked the stick, and the long arrow he shot was pushed away, but he didn't know that Pang Wanchun shot a three-star beaded arrow, and when he found it, it was too late to block it, so he could only try his best to avoid the vital point.

"Ahh Shi Jin left and right shoulders, each hit an arrow, screamed in pain, lay on the horse, and rode back.

"Kill!" Lu Junyi was shocked, thinking that Shi Jin was really dead, so he hurriedly waved his army to attack, until he saw Shi Jin return to the battle and straighten up again, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brush! Brush! Brush! "The most important thing in Yuling Pass is the bow and crossbow, and when I saw the Song army attacking, the arrows rained down suddenly.

Lu Junyi commanded his men and horses, and attacked several times, but he could not advance an inch.

Seeing this, Zhu Wu ordered his subordinates to set fire to the mountain from both sides.

Yuling Pass was originally built on the mountain forest, because they were all live trees and wet trees, so there was no mention of fire attack.

Zhu Wu and the others prepared sulfur and other fire-causing things, which were not only raging, but also accompanied by a pungent smell, which could make people retreat when they smelled it.

At this moment, Shi Qian and others, who had been lying in ambush behind the watch, also set fire and artillery from behind, and were still shouting and shouting to kill.

Pang Wanchun and others thought that the Song army had already copied the two sides, and they were in chaos without a fight, so they abandoned the pass and fled.

Lu Junyi seized the checkpoint, did not stop, chased the defeated army, and went straight to Shezhou.

Shezhou guards, it is the emperor's uncle Wang Fang Yuan, is Fang La's own uncle, and the same two generals, official and civilian, jointly guarding Shezhou. One is Shangshu Wang Yin, and the other is Gao Yu, who commanded more than a dozen generals, and 20,000 troops to defend the city of Shezhou.

Pang Wanchun's three generals led the defeated army into Shezhou, Fang Yuan originally wanted to blame the three generals, but when he saw the chasing soldiers, he had to let them go for the time being, and let them make meritorious contributions.

Wang Yin and the others were just craftsmen, and when they saw Lu Junyi coming, they immediately asked for an order to leave the city and fight with them.

Fang Yuan also wanted to kill the sharpness of Lu Junyi and the others, and readily agreed.

Wang Yin, Gao Yu, and Pang Wanchun were the three generals, and they took eighteen generals to line up out of the city and wait in formation.

Of course, Lu Junyi will not show weakness, nor will he go to the camp, leading more than 20 generals to fight-for-tat.

Now Lu Junyi also understands that Fang Lajun is not so easy to get along with, he just gives orders, and Situ Changfeng is responsible for arranging the troops, and the marching strategy is all left to Zhu Wu for consideration.

There are double whips on the left wing, Ou Peng on the right wing, and Lin Chong with a leopard head in the rear army, and the grain road is also worry-free.

Because Situ Changfeng killed three generals in a row before, and made suggestions, even Zhu Wu admired him, and everyone was a righteous brother, so all the generals were not convinced.

"Liangshan thief, come to die." Pang Wanchun lost face a few times ago, and this time he took the lead and immediately shouted.
