The five cities built by Han Rong started from Luoxing Mountain and Siwang Mountain on the side of the Great River, and then ran through the entire Shangyuan County from north to south, sandwiched between the Qinhuai River, Xuanwu Lake (Kunming Lake) and Jiangling Mountain (Zhongshan), each connected by a city wall, the purpose was to control the channel between the Yangtze River and the Qinhuai River.

Previously, when Li Qi confronted Gao Yue, he sent his general Yao Zhi'an and 3,000 Hague troops to take a big boat to float the river and garrison the five cities of Shi.

But now several cities in succession, are blocked by the rebellious quarrying army, the quarrying army itself is more than 3,000 soldiers, not enough to constitute a siege, but with the quarrying army to the "tea lord", "salt kou", "white disciples", "Xianglu children" can be big, no less than 10,000 people, and there are more successors are coming from Danyang Lake by boat (Danyang Lake, Tang Dynasty was a big lake, in the current Wuhu, Dangtu, Yixing, Gaochun, later generations around the lake to make fields, has disappeared, leaving only Shijiu Lake, Gucheng Lake and Nanyi Lake several small lakes), as for Jiangning, The people of Shangyuan and Lishui, a total of three counties, also came to help, dug trenches and built fences, and suddenly surrounded the stone city.

"Yao Zhi'an, have you seen it, what is the obedience of the human heart, this is the obedience of the human heart! Gao Weigong collected less money and taxes in Huainan, abolished the ban, painted the fields, and paid taxes evenly, and the people's hearts were happy; However, Li Qi is in Xuanrun, he is perverse, tyrannical, and disgusted, which should be an inevitable reason. If you still think about helping the abuse, after the city is broken, I am afraid that you will regret it. On the earthen hill in front of the Three Mountains Gate, Wang Qiji, the soldiers and horses of the quarrying army, shouted at the head of the stone city.

And Yao Zhi'an in the city is restless, and the six gods have no master.

After a while, when he heard that Gao Yuefang had another army, light and strong, and directly cut into the Qingxi at the foot of Jiangling Mountain, cutting off the connection between Xuanwu Lake and Stone City, he was so shocked that he rushed to the Zhoushan Mountain in the southeast corner of Xuanwu Lake to see the movement of this army from afar.

I saw that this army took the gun hand as the first, holding a spear, a flat sword, and a boring palladium foot soldier as the center, escorting heavy pack horses, vehicles, light artillery, and armored cavalry as the back, a long snake, wandering on the side of the Qingxi Quyuan, shaped like a wind, against the four sides of the residence is autumn without offense, straight to the commanding heights of Jiangling Mountain - Yao Zhi'an was frightened, and said to the military academy around him, this is really Gao Weigong's Wu Yi Army, Wu Yi Army has arrived, why is Run Shuai just relying on the four courtyard disciples, holding the hard, and falling the six tun soldiers, it is impossible to defeat at all.

"So how do we do that?"

"I'll talk about it in a day or two for the time being......," Yao Zhian decided to ride down the wall a little.

In fact, at this moment, Li Qi's army has followed the road west of Jingkou to the foot of Baohua Mountain, and then there is the Shogunate Mountain and Luoxing Mountain in Jinling. ”

Hearing about the Danyang army and guarding something, Li Qi was quite evil in his heart, he couldn't trust Bai Liangqi, but he couldn't do nothing, so he asked the scout: How many soldiers and horses are there in the Wuyi army in Guilin Yuan?

"About two thousand up and down, starting from Guilin Garden, to the west with the back of Xuanwu Lake and the weir, set up several heavy formations; It seems that on Jiangling Mountain, there are also ambushes with banners. ”

For a while, Li Qi didn't know how to fight, so he had to call his henchmen Li Jun and Xue Jie, and everyone studied on the brocade map, "From this road to Stone Town, you have to pass the Guilin Garden between Luoxing Mountain and Jiang Mountain." ”

"What if this road is planned in advance, and it doesn't fight with Gao Yue's soldiers and horses, but only in the deep ditch and high base opposite Guilin Yuan?"

It turned out that Li Qi was touted by a group of brave men as why "Xie Dongshan was reincarnated", but he was really about to come to the battlefield, and when he saw the hideous scene of mountain peaks and walls, ditches and fences, and guns and spears like a forest, he began to hesitate again.

"However, the Danyang Army has quite suspicious movements, and it is too dangerous to let them cover on our flank......" Xue Jie was worried.

Li Qi was also helpless in this regard, sighed and said that the belt was brought out, and he was not at ease in Dantu Jingkou after staying, so he could only hold the Bai Liangqi and rush into Guilin Yuan at the right time.

In the middle of the day, Li Qi and his subordinates went out to look at the camp of Gao Yue's Wu Yi Army from Jiang Ling Mountain to Guilin Yuan.

The field fortifications of the Wu Yi Army were not only repaired quickly, but also repaired well: after all, the predecessor was the elite of the generals of the Dingwu Army and the Yining Army, first digging trenches on the slope, building earth walls, cutting wood and erecting fences, and then using earth and stone and bamboo baskets to build four artillery positions, two medium-sized long-barreled copper cannons on the left and right wings, and the muzzles faintly emitted beautiful light in the winter sun; Then one-third of the foot soldiers occupied the ridge line with spears and boring palladium, and the rest all set up camp at the reverse slope, while the three hundred divine thunder gunners stood in the center of the formation, standing in a staggered chessboard formation to ensure the space for firing the fire, each holding a short boring, which could be inserted into the ground to set up a gun to fire, and rigidly controlled the open space within a hundred paces down.

As for Jiang Lingshan, halfway up Li Qi also obviously found that there was also a camp of Wu Yi's army there, but it was very silent, and the silence was terrifying. Li Qi, who was unwilling, asked several staff members to read out the document aloud to the field camp of Wu Yijun, saying that the emperor in the court had ruled to depose Gao Yue's Huainan Jiedu envoy, you don't have to follow suit, you can lay down your arms and return to obedience, and those who are unwilling to be soldiers can be released back to the village.

But Wu Yijun didn't even say "sneering", he was still very silent, and could only hear the sound of various battle flags blowing in the wind.

Although Li Qi has no actual combat experience, he can feel a fierce murderous aura, a murderous aura that can kill all the plants and trees in an instant from the cold winter frost, rolling up from the foothills and hills, and it is rushing to the face!

At this time, in the Jiang Ling Temple on the mountain, Ming Huaiyi and Guo Zaizhen were also condescending, looking at the formation of the town navy.

"Wei Gong is right, after the death of Han Jin Gong, the town navy is really not powerful, and watching Li Qi's formation is like child's play."

"That's easy, as long as you shake the red flag on the mountain peak, I will lead the iron cavalry to rush out and kill Li Qi under the lake weir!"

"Yes, when Li Qi's camp is in chaos, he will attack. As long as Li Qi is defeated, Stone Town will naturally go down without a fight. ”

However, what neither Guo Zaizhen nor Ming Huaiyi expected was that Li Qi's army collapsed faster than they expected.

After nightfall, Li Qi sat in the tent, uncertain.

Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves outside the tent sounded, Li Qi stood up disgraced, and several scouts turned over and dismounted, and said to him that it was not good to do a big thing:

Marching Zuo Sima Wang Wei, after leaving the Jingkou under the festival, fled over the city wall;

Changzhou Assassin Shi Wei Xiaqing and Suzhou Assassin Shi Li Shiju immediately suddenly summoned the children of the township and the children of unity, guarded the city gate, and launched a rebellion against the festival;

Li Ruochu, the assassin of Yuezhou, and Li Shangrong, the commander of the Yisheng Army, also took the opportunity to raise troops, crossed the Taihu Lake to meet with the rebels, and called himself "the envoy from the east", and made a threat to attack my Dantu Jingkou.

"What, I should have asked the generals under the command of Ben Dao to go with swords and kill these bastards in turn!" Li Qi was full of remorse, and the fire in his backyard had spread rapidly.

But as soon as he finished speaking, he heard a thunderous shout erupting on the right side of the camp, "The soldiers and horses of the Danyang army have turned Bai Liangqi against him!" ”
