At the time of life and death, Lin Daqing had to give up his rude demands.

completely broke with Guo Mang, and his own situation was not very good.

"Good!"

Guo Mang said simply.

Although Lin Daqing agreed to resist the Qin army, Lin Daqing's temporary blackmail still aroused Guo Mang's mind.

Almost without hesitation, Guo Mang said in a loud voice: "Commander Lin, you lead the army out of the valley to lure the enemy, and General Ben leads the army to set up defenses in the valley, and at the same time, send people to lead the army to set up an ambush outside the valley." ”

According to Lin Daqing's plan, if he wants to hit Lin Jianlu hard, the Qin army led by Zhao Poyu must first lure Zhao Poyu's troops and quickly annihilate them in the valley.

Then send the hidden army outside the valley to surprise the forest law office from behind.

It must be done in an orderly manner to have a chance to implement the plan.

Otherwise, not only will the army in the valley be in danger.

In Guo Mang's view, Lin Daqing led the mountain bandits to introduce Zhao Poyu's troops into the mountains, and when he commanded the army to inflict heavy losses on the Qin army, he could also take advantage of the situation to solve Lin Daqing's trouble.

It's killing two birds with one stone!

Lin Daqing didn't say much, and nodded: "Lin will do it immediately, General Guo is waiting for Lin's good news!" ”

Walking out of the barracks with several leaders, a leader said to Lin Daqing: "Boss, Guo Mang is ready to empty gloves white wolf, let the boss lead the army to lure the Qin army into the valley, Zhao Poyu, the Qin army led by Lin Jianlu is not a simple role, I heard that Zhao Poyu kills people like hemp, we go to make bait, it is likely to encounter the total annihilation of the Qin army, not to mention, even if we lead the army to introduce Zhao Poyu's elite into the Long Snake Valley, we will also encounter Guo Mang's blow, this move is very dangerous, if you are not careful, the army that the boss has been running for many years may all be damaged!" ”

"Yes, the Mu brothers have only occupied the three states, I heard that the King of Qin occupies seven or eight states, and there are other vassal states in the north, even if the Mu brothers lead the army to annihilate Zhao Poyu's army in the Long Snake Valley, it will not be able to change the current situation. Besides, in Changliu County, there is also a Qin army, Guo Jikang, Gongsun Ang, is not a good type, leading the army to Boyang County, there is no need to go through the Long Snake Valley, whether to help Guo Mang, the boss should think clearly! Another leader suggested.

When Lin Daqing heard this, he turned his head to look at the two leaders beside him, his face was ugly.

He didn't know how powerful the Qin State was, and he had also thought of temporarily defecting to the Qin State, so as to seek benefits, and strive for the plan to occupy Changbi Mountain and make a fortune here.

However, Zhao Poyu didn't give him face, and led the Qin army all the way west, directly killing his old friends, and throwing the other party's head into the county town he managed, which was obviously an example of killing chickens and monkeys.

Lin Daqing prides himself on being a character, but he is so despised by his juniors, how can he have face.

The most important thing is that Zhao Poyu killed people like hemp, led the army all the way, did not leave any prisoners at all, defected to Zhao Poyu, and Xing just led the army to go, and directly let Zhao Poyu command the Qin army to kill all of them.

When the time comes, let alone seeking benefits, they will continue to enjoy the glory and wealth in Changbi Mountain, and they will even die without a place to be buried.

When Lin Daqing hesitated, he said to the two leaders unhappily: "What you said, it's not impossible to happen, but, but Zhao Poyu's attitude towards us is very bad, and we defected to Zhao Poyu, aren't we humiliating ourselves?" ”

"The boss is right!" After expressing his suggestion, he did not get Lin Daqing's support, he immediately gave up the idea of surrendering to Qin, fully supported Lin Daqing, and no matter what plan Lin Daqing had, he would implement it all.

"Hehehe!"

Lin Daqing laughed weirdly twice, clenched his fists and said: "Guo Mang asked us to be bait, and he didn't take us into account at all, although Zhao Poyu is very dangerous, but it's not impossible to touch." ”

"What the boss said is right, in fact, surrendering to Qin is the best choice, especially after we know Guo Mang's plan, if we leak the news to Zhao Poyu, we will definitely be able to win the trust of the other party, and maybe we can continue to gain a foothold in Changbi Mountain." The three leaders said that he followed Lin Daqing's words and explained the benefits of surrendering to Qin.

Hearing this, Lin Daqing did not speak.

After being silent for a long time, he quickly returned to the place where the mountain bandits were encamped, Lin Daqing, who was silent all the way, suddenly spoke: "Third child, you go for a trip in person, try to contact Zhao Poyu, and probe the other party's message, if Zhao Poyu is willing to forgive us and continue to let Changbi Mountain be managed by us, I think I can choose to cooperate with Zhao Poyu." ”

Lin Daqing survived the huge uprising, and he was still alive and easy, and he had his own abilities.

This person likes to bet on both sides the most, no matter how tragic the killing of both the enemy and the enemy, in the end, he can always be the beneficiary.

Now send the three leaders to the Qin army camp to discuss with Zhao Polu, if Zhao Polu agrees to accept them, they can secretly defect to the Qin army and assist Zhao Poyu to attack Guo Mang in exchange for their own interests.

If Guo Mang inflicted a heavy blow on Zhao Poyu in the Long Snake Valley, and wiped out the law firm in the forest outside the valley, the Mu family army would be able to suppress Changbi Mountain to the death, even if Guo Mang would be aware of it in the future, he would be able to push the problem clean.

Hearing this, the three leaders nodded deeply and asked, "Boss, do you want to send Qin Jun some money and food to express the sincerity of cooperation!" ”

"There's no need, if Zhao Poyu is willing to cooperate, he should give us food, grass and ordnance!" Lin Daqing vetoed the proposal of the three leaders.

"Whoa!"

The three leaders did not hesitate and left quietly with a few cronies.

Back in the barracks, Lin Daqing said to the second leader beside him: "Second brother, send more brothers to monitor Guo Mang's moves, it is best to understand that Guo Mang is deployed outside the valley, in addition, you must send someone to monitor Zhao Poyu, the army led by the Lin Jian Law Firm, always beware of their sneak attacks!"

Tell the brothers, in recent days, you must cheer up, who dares to take Lao Tzu's words as a deaf ear, don't blame Lao Tzu for being polite! ”

"Whoa!" The second leader nodded heavily, not daring to disobey Lin Daqing's order.

.......

On the official road from Hanhai County to Boyang County, Zhao Poyu led the army as the vanguard to open the way for the Qin army.

In the past few days after leaving Yancheng, Zhao Poyu led the army to be in a state of combat at all times, Hanhai County, Boyang County, there are too many mountain roads between the two places, and there are many mountain bandits hidden, these mountain bandits are instructed by Mu Heng, and often use the terrain to secretly attack the Qin army.

Although almost all of them hit stones with eggs, and all of them were killed by the Qin army during the battle, these unexpected attacks also caused him to lead the Qin army to suffer a lot of losses in vain.

Zhao Poyu was not only dissatisfied with Mu Heng, but also hated the mountain bandits in Jianzhou, but if the mountain bandits dared to attack the Qin army, they would definitely kill them.

At this time, he led his army to reach Changbi Mountain, and the scouts sent back the news that there was a huge number of mountain bandits hidden on the front line of Changbi Mountain, almost more than 5,000 people.

According to Zhao Poyu's understanding, this is a defeated rebel army, which has been entrenched in Changbi Mountain for many years and is very familiar with the terrain near Changbi Mountain.

Both the number of bandits and their combat ability far exceed those encountered in the past.

If he marched on the plain, Zhao Poyu not only attacked the other party by surprise, but the mountain bandits dared to come out to attack the Qin army, and he commanded the Qin army to easily kill the other party, but unfortunately, the official road in front of him led to Changbi Mountain, where the terrain was more complicated.

He led the army to the first time, the enemy was in the dark, the Qin army was in the light, and he didn't want to lose the Qin army in vain.

When leading the army to hurry, Zhao Poyu took out a wine jug and took a sip, and said to the general next to him: "Order the three armies, the closer to Changbi Mountain, the more dangerous it is, at this time, the more you can't underestimate the enemy, wait for the army to pass through Changbi Mountain and enter the hinterland of Boyang County, and the general will reward the three armies." ”

"Whoa!"

The general nodded.

There is no need for Zhao Poyu to say that the soldiers of the Qin army do not dare to underestimate the enemy.

After all, along the way, the dangers encountered are often unguardable, and no one wants to joke with their lives.

"General, the last general has a saying, I don't know whether to say it or not!" The general said.

"Say!" Zhao Poyu said coldly.

The general pursed his lips hesitantly, and said cautiously: "At present, the scouts have not yet reported the situation of the Mu family army in Boyang County, but the last general heard that there are two very dangerous places in Boyang County, one is the Huangniling near Jingliang City, and the other is the Changbi Mountain where the army is about to go.

Changbi Mountain stretches for hundreds of miles from north to south, and it is the only way for us to enter Boyang County, but the Long Snake Valley in Changbi Mountain is the only passage, and it is rumored that the Long Snake Valley is a man who is not destroyed.

Mu Heng fled back to Jianzhou in embarrassment, if he wanted to stop the marshal and the general from leading the Qin army, he would definitely send a large army to set up defenses in Changbi Mountain, especially in the Long Snake Valley, and the general led the army to the hinterland of Boyang County, which was very difficult. ”

"General, what Hu Zhonglang said is right, the Long Snake Valley is indeed a very dangerous place, and the general should have made plans early!" Another biased general suggested.

Zhao Poyu had heard of the situation in the Long Snake Valley, and had not yet led the army to approach the Changbi Mountain, and had recently been fighting against the mountain bandits who attacked them, and Zhao Poyu did not know much about the specific situation of the Long Snake Valley.

"Map!"

Guo Poyu said loudly.

If the Mu family army was held in the Long Snake Valley, he should indeed think of another way.

The general sent the map to Zhao Poyu, pointed out the location of the Long Snake Valley, and said: "The last general heard that the narrowest place in the Long Snake Valley can only pass through more than ten people at a time, if you can't capture the Long Snake Valley, not only will it be very dangerous for the general to lead the army forward, but even the commander will lead the army to rush to the hinterland of Boyang County, and he must come back at a heavy price." ”

Zhao Poyu lowered his head, looked at the map in detail, and when he heard the general's statement, he couldn't help asking: "Is it possible to go straight through the mountain?" ”

"There are too many miasma poisonous insects in the mountain, a few years ago, there was an uprising of the rebel army in Jianzhou who tried to climb the mountain to attack Mu Heng in Jingliang City, but the rebel army suffered heavy losses and had to withdraw, the army led by the general was mostly from Longdi, Xiliang, which was not adapted to the southern climate, and then ventured through the high mountains full of poisonous miasma, and the loss was estimated to be more serious." Partial general debriefing.

You can't go over the mountain to Jingliang City.

Suddenly, Zhao Poyu's face became serious.

In this way, Changbi Mountain, Long Snake Valley, wouldn't it become a mountain that was impossible to climb in front of the Qin army.

After a pause, Zhao Poyu asked: "Could it be that in Changbi Mountain, there is only this road leading to Boyang County, and General Ben thinks that there must be other roads." ”

Changbi Mountain stretches for hundreds of miles from north to south, and if the east and west want to communicate, they must not only rely on the Changsnake Valley in Changbi Mountain.

Hearing this, the general nodded: "The general is wise, and it is indeed not a road." ”

"yes, where are the other roads?" Zhao Poyu heard the news with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and his guess was indeed not wrong.

The general hesitated slightly, pointed to the map and said: "Changsnake Valley is the northernmost passage of Changbi Mountain, and the other passages are all in Changliu County, the general knows that General Guo and General Gongsun are leading the army in Changliu County, if the general leads the army back to the south, it can indeed resolve the danger in front of him, but there is a suspicion of competing with General Guo and General Gongsun in the south, and when the time comes, not only will the two generals be offended, but also the marshal may be involved!" ”

Here it is!

After Zhao Poyu observed in detail, he suddenly realized.

In that case, he really couldn't go to Changliu County.

Before this battle, Zhao Poyu had been fighting with Gongsun Ang in the south and north for a long time, and in the past year, Gongsun Ang took great care of him.

Now that Gongsun Ang was demoted to the rank of lieutenant by the king because of the defeat of Gaotang Prefecture, it was the time when he needed to make meritorious contributions, how could he rob Gongsun Ang's military merits.

Even if he ignores his past kindness, the army he leads probably does not approve of robbing the old marshal's military exploits.

Zhao Poyu took a deep breath and said a little depressedly: "In this way, our situation is indeed very bad, but no matter how much it costs to make a comeback, we must open up the Long Snake Valley and enter the hinterland of Boyang County in advance to ensure that the marshal is safe and sound in the rear." ’

The general did not speak.

After all, in the face of this kind of special terrain, he has no experience, and whether he can lead the army to open up the Long Snake Valley depends on Zhao Poyu's wisdom.

"Send scouts to the Long Snake Valley to reconnoiter first, no matter whether the Long Snake Valley is an iron wall or a huge peak, this time the general must open the road to the Long Snake Valley." Zhao Poyu said categorically.

This time, the Qin army fought very smoothly, and when it encountered a little trouble, it was expected, and it was able to kill the arrogance of the Qin army.

"The last general will arrange it immediately!" The general rode away.

In this way, he continued to lead the army forward for half a day, and along the way, he did not encounter harassment from the mountain bandits, which made the Qin army in a combat state very surprised.

As far as they know, there are a large number of mountain bandits entrenched in Changbi Mountain, according to the situation of encountering several mountain bandits before, the mountain bandits in Changbi Mountain should also be at the disposal of Mu Heng, the Qin army has a small half a day away, and is about to arrive at Changbi Mountain, they should attack and disturb the Qin army!

In front of the army, Zhao Poyu was also thinking about this problem.

After thinking about it, Zhao Poyu felt that there was only one possibility, that is, the mountain bandits in Changbi Mountain received Mu Heng's order, and all went to the Long Snake Valley to set up defenses, hoping to ambush the Qin army through the rugged mountain roads of the Long Snake Valley.

"These bastards!"

Thinking of this, Zhao Poyu couldn't help but scold.

If it weren't for the obstruction of the previous mountain bandits, at this time, he would have led his army through the Long Snake Valley in advance, why would there be so much trouble.

When he was distressed, a scout returned and hurriedly reported: "General, the three leaders of the bandits in Changbi Mountain, appeared more than ten miles away, hoping to meet with the general?" ”

"The bandit leader of Changbi Mountain?" Hearing this, Zhao Poyu frowned slightly, and asked, "How many troops does he lead, and does he explain why he asked to see General Ben." ”
