Chapter 221: Praying Mantis Catches Cicadas (5)

Hearing the words, Peach Rabbit turned around and said:

"Big brother!"

It turned out that the peach chased the tiger and rode over,

Tao Zhuhu first saluted Lan Ziyi with a fist on the horse, and then urged the horse to come to the two of them, knocked on Tao Zhutu's head, and said in his mouth:

"You are becoming more and more presumptuous, and you dare to be so rude to the young master!"

The peach chase tiger is not light, the helmet on the head of the peach chase rabbit was knocked on the ding dong, and there was another muffled sound under the helmet.

Although Lan Ziyi knew that Tao Zhuhu was not really doing it, he still hurriedly raised his hand to stop Tao Zhuhu,

兰子义 says:

"Big brother, don't be like this, the third brother's doubts are also the doubts of the soldiers, and the third brother just asked the words for the brothers."

Because Lan Ziyi came forward to solve the siege, Tao Zhuhu did not continue to clean up Tao Zhuhu,

The peach rabbit also stepped aside in recognition of each other, not daring to squeak again.

Lan Ziyi asked Tao Zhuhu again:

"Are you all together?"

Tao Zhuhu replied:

"The cavalry officers and soldiers have all been gathered, and they have all been incorporated into the Jihu Battalion according to your requirements, young master, and now they are all ready, just waiting not far ahead, Li Guangzhong is already there, when the young master wants to leave, we can leave at any time."

Lan Ziyi nodded when he listened, and said to Tao Zhuhu:

"Big brother, you go to the front of the army to lead the team first, I'll wait for the two gentlemen Qi Hou and the Qiu family in the back, and I'll go over after meeting them."

Tao Zhuhu heard the order and hugged his fist again, whipped the horse and rushed forward, before leaving, Tao Zhuhu did not forget to turn around and tell Tao Zhutu:

"Protect me for a good young master, no matter how dare I break your legs!"

Saying that the peach chased the tiger and rode away with the peach and the deer,

After the two horsemen were gone, Tao Zhutu came to Lan Ziyi and asked:

"Young master, am I really rude?"

Lan Ziyi replied with a smile:

"Third brother, what you said is all a joke, where is there any rudeness about your brother?"

Hearing Lan Ziyi's words, Peach Rabbit showed a sincere smile with relief, and then Peach Rabbit asked:

"Young Master, if you say that, I'm relieved.

But why is it that when I was in the capital, if I called the young master a little bit of you, you would be furious, and after going out to fight a few battles, the young master returned to the simplicity he had when he was in Luoyan Pass? β€œ

Lan Ziyi did not answer this question of Tao Zhutu,

He looked at the soldiers who were constantly leaving the city in front of him, and wondered if these soldiers knew what they were doing, or if they were just a cloud of people.

If it is said that there are clouds of people, how can Lan Ziyi not be a cloud of people in the days when he was drunk and dreamed of death in the capital? Thinking about it like this, the problem of chasing the rabbit is really acute, no wonder I feel heartache and don't want to face it.

Seeing that Lan Ziyi didn't answer, Tao Zhutu also realized that he had asked the wrong thing, so he stopped asking and looked up to observe the surrounding situation.

But Lan Ziyi couldn't hold back the doubts in his heart, and asked the soldiers marching on the road:

"This brother, there are many thieves in Shouchun, and there are many bad lucks here, have you ever thought about what to do if you don't come back like this?"

The sergeant who was questioned replied:

"Just because you call us brothers, Master Hou, even if I die, it's worth it."

One of the sergeants behind the sergeant replied:

"These days I have fought against demon thieves and died so many brothers, I have earned it, Master Hou doesn't have to worry about me."

Another sergeant replied:

"Hou Ye is clever, leading troops to fight and taking the lead, I believe you, there is a desperate situation in front of you, Hou Ye will also lead us to kill a bloody road."

A few sergeants walked forward with a word, and in the blink of an eye they had already walked to the front and disappeared.

Lan Ziyi watched the soldiers go away, slowly exhaled, and closed his eyes.

The soldiers trust Lan Ziyi very much, but is Lan Ziyi really worthy of their trust?

At first, Lan Ziyi believed in himself and believed that he had the ability to quell the rebellion for the country and make contributions, but now, after experiencing so many things, Lan Ziyi has some distrust of himself.

The sound of horses' hooves from the city gate brought Lan Ziyi, who had just fallen into deep thought, back to his senses,

It was Qi Rongxun who came, and the four horsemen who followed him were Tao Zhulu, the father and son of the Qiu family, and the camp general of the Shenji battalion, Lan Ziyi, the battalion general, had seen it before, so he recognized it at a glance.

Several people came to Lan Ziyi and stopped in front of the horse, Lan Ziyi and Qi Rongxun saluted each other, and then Qi Rongxun said:

"I thought that Wei Hou had already led the team to leave first, but I didn't expect to be waiting for me here."

Lan Ziyi smiled:

"You have to discuss a few words with Qi Hou before marching, otherwise what if such a long line is attacked."

Qi Rongxun says:

"The thieves are busy with infighting, and they definitely don't have the energy to deal with us anytime soon."

Lan Ziyi heard Qi Rongxun's answer, looked at Qi Rongxun's confident face, and felt a little empty in his heart.

At this time, Qiu Wenruo said:

"The main force of the thieves is in internal strife, but if the thieves leave scouts along the way when they are marching, or if some people are dissatisfied during the infighting and leave in groups, and there are also outcasts who have not joined the bandits, it will pose a threat to our army, so it is better to be careful."

When Qi Rongxun heard Qiu Wenruo speak, the expression on his face turned disdainful, and he said without looking back:

"Mr. Wen Ruo is a good hand at managing money and food, handling documents, and he deserves to be the master of the army.

As for the march and the war, this is the business of these martial artists, so don't talk too much about you, a scholar. β€œ

Qiu Wenruo heard Qi Rongxun's words and leaned back slightly, and didn't say anything more.

Lan Ziyi was happy and angry when he heard Qi Rongxun's words, and when he thought about it carefully, he was more happy than angry.

Of course, he was angry because Qi Rongxun was arrogant and unreasonable, he didn't give face, and he humiliated Qiu Wenruo and didn't care that Lan Ziyi was beside him

is happy because Qi Rongxun's scolding completely exposed his short-sightedness and lack of character in the city.

Qi Rongxun looked down on both the father and son of the Qiu family, but it is a good thing, in the final analysis, Qi Rongxun is Zhang Mingyue's person, if the news of the father and son of the Qiu family is the mastermind, then it will take effort not to let anyone hurt the father and son of the Qiu family with a secret arrow, although the role of the father and son of the Qiu family is estimated to have been spread long ago.

The Divine Machine Battalion General heard that Qi Rongxun was not right, and hurriedly interjected:

"Actually, what Mr. Wen Ruo said is very reasonable, Qi Hou and I will be careful on the road."

Qi Rongxun was about to open his mouth to refute the battalion general, but Qiu Xiaozhi said:

"Wei Hou, Qi Hou has already sent someone to inform the Hailing Eastern Army to advance west and support the operation."

Lan Ziyi's heart shook when he heard this, and he didn't speak.

Hearing Qiu Xiaozhi's reminder, Qi Rongxun also turned back to Lan Ziyi and said:

"Exactly, Wei Hou can rest assured that our chances of victory are one point greater."

Hearing this, the Divine Machine Battalion General frowned and said:

"Transferring troops will be a matter for the military department, why does the major general want to transfer troops privately? This is a taboo in the imperial court.

I still feel that the messenger should be recalled, and the letter should be sent to the court, waiting for the court to send it. β€œ

Hearing this, Lan Ziyi lowered his head and said:

"Actually, Qi Hou doesn't need to ......"

Before he finished speaking, Qiu Xiaozhi preemptively said:

"The soldiers are fast, and when the imperial court decrees that the bloody battles on the front line have been fought, now that we can unite a force, we will have a better chance of winning, and the general will not worry about these details."

Qi Rongxun nodded and said:

"Exactly,

I have made up my mind, there is no need to say more, I will naturally explain to the court after this kind of battle, as long as I can exterminate the thieves, I am not afraid of punishment. β€œ

When Lan Ziyi heard Qi Rongxun's heroic words, what came to his mind was the incident of driving a horse to the royal bridge in the capital, but he was the victim at that time, and now he is a wolf that harms people.

Lan Ziyi didn't want to continue the topic, so he looked up and asked:

"How many days are we going to walk to get to Shouchun?"

Qiu Xiao replied directly:

"Three days for the long and two days for the short."

Lan Ziyi frowned and said:

"It's still too slow."

Qiu Xiao replied directly:

"The forced march can reach the foot of Shouchun City in one day and one night, but then the soldiers will be so tired that they can't even lift their hands.

I didn't lead the cavalry to go first last night, because I was worried that the soldiers would not be physically exhausted when they rushed over. β€œ

Lan Ziyi didn't answer, nor did he nod, but he still admired Qiu Xiaozhi's accurate judgment.

But Qi Rongxun said:

"Bian Zhuang stabbed the tiger, and waited for his two injuries, this so-called sitting on the mountain and watching the tiger fight.

If your intelligence is good, then the scale of the thieves' infighting this time must be very huge, and we can wait for the thieves to fight and lose if we go slowly. β€œ

Lan Zi Yixin said that you think so completely because you don't know Lei Youde, the result of the infighting will only make Lei Youde bigger, and make the remaining thieves more difficult, there will be no lose-lose, isn't it Lei Youde who made Qi Rongxun suffer in Yuzhou?

But now is not the time to talk about these trivial things, Lan Ziyi asked again:

"Did King De arrive in Luzhou? Can you contact the main force of the Beijing Army?

Where will the three armies meet? β€œ

Hearing this, Tao Zhulu replied:

"I have already sent someone to go south to Luzhou to bypass the thief, and I believe there will be news in the near future."

Qi Rongxun also said:

"I have ordered the reinforcements from the west to join us in Shouchun, and the thieves are fighting in Shouchun, so of course they should advance to their city."

After saying this, Qi Rongxun urged the horse to walk to the front of the team, and he said to Lan Ziyi:

"It's not too early, Wei Hou also hurriedly set off to command the soldiers of the Jihu Battalion in front, the cavalry scouts are scattered, and the main army can be safe."

I marched with the army first. β€œ

Saying that, Qi Rongxun urged the horse to march, and the Shenji Battalion would follow.

Lan Ziyi heard Qi Rongxun's words and calmed down, although Qi Rongxun underestimated the enemy, his skill in commanding the troops was still trustworthy, widely distributed scouts, and reconnaissance of military information was not wasted, so he would definitely not be caught off guard when he encountered an enemy attack.

As soon as Qi Rongxun walked on the front foot, Qiu Xiaozhi came to Lan Ziyi and said:

"Wei Hou must not have the kindness of a woman, Zhang Mingyue will not have Wei Hou's kindness."

Lan Ziyi knew that Qiu Xiaozhi was talking about how he almost organized Qi Rongxun to transfer troops just now, but he didn't answer Qiu Xiaozhi directly, but just asked Tao Zhulu:

"What is the relationship between the Shenji Battalion and Qi Rongxun? Why do you call Qi Rongxun a major general? ”

Tao Zhulu replied:

"The Eastern Army uses firearms frequently, and that battalion will be promoted from the Eastern Army to lead the Shenji Battalion."

Lan Ziyi didn't speak after hearing this, he looked at the marching procession, and after a while, he said:

"Let's go, we don't have much time."

As he spoke, he took the lead in urging the horses and ran towards the army.
