One person rushed to the front with a long lance, and Chang Yanzhi and the others either drew swords or guns, and followed behind not far or close, facing an enemy twice their size, they were not in much of a hurry.

Xu Ji had no weapons, jumped off his horse, and stood behind and watched in surprise.

Equally astonished was the group of pursuers, who did not understand the courage of the stragglers on the opposite side to dare to charge at the larger number of cavalry.

The leader of the chasing soldiers wanted to show off his skills, and asked for a lance from the entourage soldiers, "I'll go to battle alone!" ”

No one dissuaded him, for the enemy was so weak that he was a young man like a bamboo pole, and he ran with ease, and he held a lance effortlessly.

The leader clapped his horse to meet him.

A simple engagement, the end of a round, without any tricks, but the result surprised the pursuers.

The young man like a bamboo pole overturned the leader of the horse, and dozens of pursuers watched their boss fall into the deep valley, screaming for a long time.

"Tang Weitian, the general of the Yizhou Army, is here, see who dares to touch a single hair of the Metropolitan Governor?"

The pursuers only lost one leader, and the number was still superior, but when they saw the strength of the enemy and heard the words "Yizhou Army", they had no fighting spirit, and they were originally unable to defeat the officers and soldiers of Han and Yizhou before fleeing into Qinzhou, and they were particularly afraid of the latter, and no one took the lead, so they turned their horses' heads in a panic and fled along the same road.

Tang Weitian chased out more than two miles, and confirmed that no one accepted the challenge, so he came back with a long lance, "It's like this again, I ran away as soon as I fought, and I thought that there were many of them, and they could be bolder." ”

Chang Yanzhi and the others had already returned to Xu Ji's side and said with a smile: "You provoke the enemy generals with one shot, who dares to fight you?" ”

"I'll keep it next time." Tang stood against the stone for the heavenly general, came to Xu Ji, and knelt down.

Xu Ji hurriedly stretched out his hand to help, but he didn't help him up, Tang Weitian still knelt down, kowtowed respectfully and respectfully three heads, got up and said: "The governor of the capital doesn't have to shirk, I will kowtow this time, and I won't kowtow in the future, you have long since stopped being the king of Wu, and I have also changed the master, these three heads can be regarded as reparations." ”

"What is the sin?" Xu Ji asked.

"When the Metropolitan Governor went to Yecheng, I didn't follow ......"

Xu Ji smiled: "Kowtow when you leave, and kowtow when you meet again, it's enough." ”

"The Governor ......"

"Don't use that name anymore."

"Why did Childe get here?" Tang Weitian asked.

Xu Ji didn't answer, but looked at Tang Weitian first, "It's just been more than a year, you've grown taller." ”

Tang Weitian has indeed grown a lot taller, but his appearance has not changed much, and he said with a smile: "Not only has I grown taller, but my strength has also increased, I worshipped a Master, and learned the lance and knife techniques, but the bow method is poor, and I always can't shoot accurately." ”

"Being good at a set of skills is enough to make a living. First of all, how did you meet you? Xu Ji was worried about Tang Weitian's safety before, and he didn't have time to ask Chang Yanzhi questions, and he noticed that the people who came back with Chang Yanzhi were not the original Gong soldiers, but a group of strange soldiers.

"Walking on the road and bumping into it, I had a problem as soon as I saw it, Lao Hong said that there was no need to be nosy, I don't think this will work......"

Tang Weitian said upside down, Chang Yanzhi interrupted him with a smile, "Let me tell you, our group hasn't walked out of the plank road yet, and we met General Tang leading troops to inspect on the way." We wanted to hide, but unfortunately we didn't escape General Tang's eyes and were captured alive by him on the spot, but fortunately I knew him, otherwise we would have been picked to death by this long lance. ”

Tang Weitian said: "You can't blame me, I didn't know you very well at the beginning, and I didn't recognize you when we met at first glance." ”

"Yes, yes, blame me. Then as soon as I talked about Childe's condition, General Tang was in a hurry, and took a dozen of his subordinates down to save people, lost his horse halfway, and walked here, just in time to meet Childe. ”

"What about your former companion?" Xu Ji asked.

"General Tang thought they were slow, so he stayed behind."

"Who is chasing you?" Tang asked for heaven.

"It should be a subordinate of the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King Xu Dashi." Xu Jidao.

"What a bold guy, he dares to be unfavorable to Childe, doesn't he know your former identity?"

"My former identity was only of some use to the old army, and the new army didn't recognize it at all."

"So if you don't mean King Wu, you're a ...... Forget it, I won't talk much, let's go on the road, I'll take revenge on you. ”

"You still want to go to Qinzhou?"

"Yes, don't worry, son, not only our people, but also the army of the King of Shu behind us, we will be able to catch up in a few days."

Chang Yanzhi interjected: "The king of Shu sent an army of 100,000 to sweep through Hanzhong and is coming to Qinzhou. ”

"Which King of Shu?" Xu Ji wants to confirm.

"Gan Zhao, who else could it be?" Tang Weitian is bold, he dares to say anyone's name, and he must not feel ashamed.

Xu Ji has too many things that he doesn't understand, "Let's go back first, join the Shu army, and then make plans." ”

Tang Weitian said with a smile: "Gongzi is still so cautious, I have fought many times with these Hanzhou descending army, they are a group of cowards, bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, they will disperse as soon as they fight, don't look at us There are only a dozen of us, and it is not a problem to deal with thousands of people." ”

Xu Ji was used to bragging, and he didn't care about the "100,000 army" and "more than a dozen people against a few thousand", and said with a smile: "I have other things to see the commander of the Shu army, and I need you to introduce them." ”

"You don't need to be introduced, it's also someone that Childe knows, Iron Kite, remember? Now it's the Iron General. ”

"I remember, but I don't know you so well, and I haven't seen you for many days, so I need you to introduce me."

"Well, anyway, General Tie also said that he wanted me to go back in time."

Everyone turned around, there was only one horse, led by Chang Yanzhi, Xu Ji and Tang Weitian walked side by side, asked many things, and asked others for verification, and finally roughly figured out what happened in Han and Yi Prefectures.

Gan Zhao never forgot Yizhou, which Xu Ji had recommended, and after leaving the Eastern Capital, he gathered the soldiers of the headquarters and found a way to Yizhou, which was also his luck, he did not encounter too many obstacles along the way, avoided a large number of officers and soldiers, and entered Yizhou smoothly.

The world is in turmoil, and there has never been much news about Yizhou, but in fact, it has become a pot of porridge here, divided into more than a dozen forces, fighting each other, not stopping for a moment, and no one can spare their hands to inquire about outside affairs.

Xu Ji once suggested that after Gan Zhao entered Yi, he would play the banner of the old Shu and look for the descendants of the Shu king, but Gan Zhao soon found that there was no need for such trouble, since Tiancheng Dingding, Yizhou moved into a large number of foreign scholars, and he had no nostalgia for the old Shu king, and he could be completely self-reliant.

At the beginning, Gan Zhao still used the banner of the World Army, and found that it was not very easy to use, so he changed to an ownerless army, and whoever gave more benefits to the forces in Yizhou, he fought for whom, and at the same time kept sowing discord and preventing the opponent from uniting, and in only half a year, he had gained a foothold in Yizhou and became one of the most powerful forces, and he no longer had to work for others.

But it's just "one of them", too far from his goal, just at this time, there are rumors that the three daughters of King Yidu have fallen into the people, working as maids for others, and they are on the territory of Ganzhao.

Gan Zhao "rescued" the three daughters of the king of Yidu, married the elderly, promised the two younger sisters to his generals, and then played the banner of avenging the king of Yidu, attracting many people to take refuge.

About two months ago, Gan Zhao captured the Jindu City of Yizhou and occupied the entire Yibei region.

Next, everyone thought that the king of Shu would continue to wave his army south and seize the entire territory of Yizhou, but he made a surprise move and sent the general Tie Kite to lead his troops to enter Hanzhou in the name of the Yizhou army, taking advantage of the fact that the officers and soldiers of Hanzhou were busy exterminating the descending army that rose everywhere and seized a large piece of territory.

At this time, Gan Zhao no longer used the banner of the descending army, because he married the daughter of the king of Yidu as a concubine, but claimed to be the imperial prince, and the army was also the division of the imperial court.

The local army in Hanzhou was suspicious of this sudden "officer and soldier" and did not form an alliance with it until not long ago: the Hanzhou army pacified the eastern counties and tried to connect with Jingzhou, while the Yizhou army focused on the west and pursued the fleeing incarnation army

The situation in Han and Yi states was not expected by anyone at all, and Xu Ji was no exception, thinking back to the Gan Zhao Gan treasurer he knew, he could never have imagined that this person could achieve such great achievements, and the kings of the eastern capital at the beginning could not compare to him.

Regarding the situation in Hanzhou, Chang Yanzhi also inquired and understood, there is indeed a new herdsman, who is a Xi family, so no matter what, the road to Jingzhou must be opened.

Lou Yan, the sixth son of the Lou family, is not an unknown person, he is also the governor of Han Governor Shi and the general of Pingxi, and his status is second only to Xin Mushou.

Xu Ji asked again: "The heroes all submitted a letter of surrender to Shan Yu, it is said that all parties in Hanzhou have handed it over, and even went to see Shan Yu in person, what about the King of Shu?" ”

Tang Weitian said: "I don't know if the surrender letter was handed over, but the King of Shu definitely didn't go to see Shan Yu." ”

"Is there a lot of food in Yizhou?" Xu Ji has been in Gongjun for a long time, and he is also extremely concerned about this matter.

"It's okay, I'm not hungry anyway." Tang Weitian still looked like he didn't know, he was more willing to tell his experience of fighting, and his eyebrows fluttered, and more than a dozen soldiers helped, which made him unable to stop, talking when walking, and talking when eating, until that night, when everyone was around a fire and ready to rest, he said unsatisfied: "First of all, there are more interesting things, let's talk about it tomorrow." ”

Xu Ji kept laughing and didn't stop Tang Weitian's nagging, although he didn't care about these things.

After sleeping for a while, Tang Weitian suddenly felt a little rude, and asked, "How is the son?" I was so busy hurrying that I didn't have time to ask the general. ”

"I ...... I was busy arguing with people, and I didn't get anything else done. ”

"Haha, Childe is arguing with people, and he will definitely win every time......" Tang Weitian fell asleep.

Xu Ji was worried that the pursuers would arrive again, so he always wanted to set off earlier, but Tang Weitian didn't care, "This road is narrow, and I am not afraid of how many pursuers come." ”

Fortunately, the pursuers never reappeared, and the Hundred Eyes Heavenly King probably thought it was not worth the trouble of being a scholar.

Walking for two days in a row, they met the Shu army in advance, a total of more than 1,000 people, most of them were from Yizhou, they had no impression of the former King of Wu, but they were in awe of General Tang, and they gave way and bowed their hands to worship, calling him "the general who shook the sky", to the effect that he could always throw his opponent to the sky with a lance.

Tang Weitian wanted to go to Qinzhou with the army, but Xu Ji insisted on seeing the iron kite, Tang Weitian had no choice, after hesitating, he decided to send the old master first, and then come to catch up with the front team, the vanguard of the Shu army could not do without him, the Tang general.

After another day's trip, Xu Ji met the main force of the Shu army, what he saw in his eyes, the morale of the soldiers was high, and he had no intention of retreating, he had been thinking about it for a few days, and still didn't know how to persuade the iron kite not to enter Qinzhou.
