Conquering the west to rebel against the general, Tang Wannian, the king of Pingnan of Great Chu, led a large group of men and horses to leave Yanling Pass, and went forward for two days, and finally saw the continuous military camps and the banner of the Ma family army fluttering in the wind above.

Tang Wannian was not in a hurry to order his subordinates to attack.

While he ordered his soldiers to camp on the spot, he sat on his horse and squinted his eyes and looked at the enemy camp with contempt and hatred.

Not long after, "Suzaku General" Qiu Shengrong rode his horse to his side, bowed down and saluted: "Lord Nan, my soldiers and horses have set up camp, and the soldiers are waiting for your order. ”

Tang Wannian raised his hand and raised his horsewhip, pointed to the direction of the Ma family's army camp and asked, "General Qiu, how do you feel when you look at the location of the enemy's camp?" ”。

Qiu Shengrong turned his head suspiciously, stared in that direction for a moment, then glanced back at Tang Wannian, lowered his head and carefully clenched his fists and said, "The last general is stupid, I don't know what the Southern Prince's opinion is?" ”。

Tang Wannian raised his chin and said with a smile: "According to this king, since Ma Maoxun and his so-called five tiger generals went to see the king of Hades, the dragons have no leader, just a group of rabble!" Although it took a lot of hard work to put together some people temporarily, it was really vulnerable! It is estimated that in less than two months, you and I will be able to return triumphantly. ”

Qiu Shengrong frowned, and said in a low voice: "Don't be careless to underestimate the enemy, the last general still doesn't understand what you mean, Lord Wang." ”

Tang Wannian turned his head, glanced at Qiu Shengrong with a slightly regretful look and said: "Ma Maoxun attacked the city back then, and he also occupied several state capitals in Daqi. Now, the army of our Heavenly Dynasty King is overwhelming, and no matter the number of men and horses, equipment, or combat power, it is comparable to these remnants of the scum. If they retreat to the state city and defend against the danger, they can still spend some time with us. Thus opening up a position in the wilderness is tantamount to striking a stone with an egg! It's no different from a widow who can't think of committing suicide by hanging a beam and wiping her neck to find death, right? ”。

Qiu Shengrong turned his head to look at the camp of the Ma Jiajun again, turned his head and looked at Tang Wannian, and the two of them looked up to the sky and laughed almost at the same time.

After laughing, Tang Wannian, who was on the horse, waved his hand extremely chic and said: "Pass the order, bury the pot and make rice, let the soldiers have a full meal, strengthen patrols at night, and rest for the night." Tomorrow our army will attack in a big way! ”。

The wind was blowing, and soon the wind and sand were all over the sky, and the afterglow of the setting sun was wantonly smeared on this desolate and lonely land, but it still did not show much vitality.

As soon as Tang Wannian, the king of Pingnan, put down the dishes and chopsticks, a soldier entered and knelt on the ground to report: "Report to the prince, there is a sentry from the Ma family military camp, and it looks like there are only one hundred and ten people, marching slowly, and coming straight to my camp." ”

Tang Wannian glanced out of the tent in confusion and muttered to himself, "Stealing camps? It's not dark yet! It's impossible to borrow their guts! Re-explore and report again. ”

The soldier got up, quickly turned around and retreated, leaving Tang Wannian alone with his head bowed and frowned, puzzled.

As the sky grew darker, "General Suzaku" stepped in, bowed down and saluted: "Lord Wang, there are 100 people and horses who escaped from the Ma family's military camp, saying that they are here to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, do you want to summon them?" ”。

Tang Wannian stood up and grinned: "This is a bit interesting, before the two armies start a war, someone on the other side will be a deserter!" Go to the big tent of the Chinese army, and spread the word that they have come to meet the king. ”

Tang Wannian, who was sitting behind the handsome case, looked up and saw that the Ma Jiajun deserters who came in were gray-faced, their faces were vegetable, and there were two people holding a burly strong man. The strong man seemed to have a problem with his legs and feet, but he was dragging his legs and couldn't move normally.

Everyone hulala knelt on the ground, and Tang Wannian waved his hand and said, "All raise their heads and talk back." ”

He stretched out his hand and pointed to the strong man who was crawling on the ground, and his legs and feet were obviously not good, and said, "What is your name?" What's going on with the legs and feet? Why did you come to join my Great Chu King? ”。

The strong man raised his head, stretched his neck with difficulty, his face was covered with sweat, and said with difficulty with both hands: "Back to the prince, the villain's name is Du Lifu, most of the people in the capital, who make a living by selling coolies. I was kidnapped and coerced by the Ma family and thieves to be here, and I was forced to serve as a petty official to help them carry grain and grass, and these people are all my brothers. This time, we waited to escort the grain and grass to the front of the two armies, but we didn't know that the road was delayed for a few days, and we were severely beaten by the thieves and generals. They escaped together. Thinking about it, only if you go to the prince of Dachu, there is still a glimmer of life! ”。

Tang Wannian frowned, skeptical. He waved his hand and whispered to the attendant beside him: "Carry him down, find two military attendants, and carefully help him examine his injuries to see if what he said is true or false."

The attendant nodded understandingly, waved his hand, and beckoned the two men to carry the burly, sweaty Duliv out.

Tang Wannian stood up and asked the other person kneeling on the ground, "How many soldiers and horses are there in the horse thief camp at the moment?" Who is in charge? ”。

The man glanced up at him, then lowered his head and hugged his fists and said: "Back to the prince, there are forty or fifty thousand horses gathered in the camp of the Ma family's army, and the commander should be Ma Maoxun's son, named Ma Chengen." However, listening to Brother Du's private words, that kid has not dried up, his temper is very short-tempered, and he has many discords with his generals, and no one believes in him! ”。

Tang Wannian nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand, and said, "Take them all down, and prepare some food and drink to entertain." When you come to my camp, you're going home! Not only that, but on the other day, the Great Chu Wang Division broke through the Ma family army camp, and this king will remember your first merit, and each will have a reward! ”。

Back to his sleeping tent, with a stick of incense, the "Suzaku General" walked in with the two military attendants.

Tang Wannian first asked the two Lang Zhongdao: "You two have gone to check your injuries, how is it?" ”。

The two Lang Zhong glanced at each other, and one of them pursed his lips and smiled: "Back to the prince, I'll wait to see it." The so-called butt blossoms, but so, the swelling is so high, but fortunately it doesn't hurt the bones. As he spoke, he made a slightly exaggerated gesture, as if a mountain beam had suddenly risen from the flat ground.

Tang Wannian nodded and smiled: "If you start so hard, everyone will be forced to be anxious." Even so, beware of deception and pass on the order: give this group of people good food, drink and hospitality, and at the same time strictly guard and monitor them closely! ”。

The two Lang Zhong bowed and retreated, Tang Wannian turned his face to look at the "Vermilion Bird General" and said with a smile: "General Qiu, as expected: the thief army has scraped together some people, and the commander is a milky swinger brother, so don't worry!" ”。

Qiu Shengrong bowed down with a smile on his face and saluted: "Congratulations to the prince, congratulations to the prince, so that our army can easily win and return to the dynasty as soon as possible!" The prince commanded the troops to quell the northwest bandits in one fell swoop, and he should have made great achievements and achieved a shocking feat! ”。
