Liu Bao saw that there was chaos at the city gate, and immediately rushed to this side, but the woods were still five miles away from the city gate, and it would take more than ten minutes to come over, that is, less than a quarter of an hour.

Liu Yixian and the others quickly eliminated the soldiers at the city gate, and then the people near the city gate also ran clean, and Liu Yixian and his men began to draw out axes to destroy the city gate shaft.

And Liu Yixian nervously observed the movements in the city, the city was in a panic, and the Qing army above also knew that someone had seized the door, and he didn't know what to do, and he saw Liu Baojun outside the city with sharp eyes and began to scream.

However, there is no point in shouting, Liu Yixian and the others are hiding in the city gate hole, and the people above have nothing to do.

Five minutes later, the Qing army in the city gate tower organized the first wave of attacks to recapture the city gate, but there were only fifty or sixty people on the city wall, and they were scattered by Liu Yixian's platoon of guns just a few steps after they screamed, leaving behind one or twenty corpses.

At this time, Liu Bao was still three miles away from the city gate, and a large wave of officials also rushed out of the yamen of the Qing army, rushing towards the city gate.

Liu Yixian saw this general situation and immediately asked everyone to stop shooting and prepare for close combat, although the penetration of the short gun is not as good as the long gun, but the short gun is prepared for close combat, and the Qing army began to charge quickly for the sake of success.

Liu Yixian calculated the distance, and when the Qing army rushed to a hundred steps, he pressed the fire fold on the lead of the explosive pack, and the Qing army rushed to sixty steps and heard a boom, and the explosive bag exploded in the crowd of the Qing army, and in an instant, the door panel and the coffin board flew together.

The Qing army was stunned by the bombing, and did not react for a while, and when the smoke cleared and saw a messy battlefield, the Qing army looked at each other, whether this was rushing or not.

Everyone hid behind the Fangshan house and waited for the orders of their superiors, and Liu Bao's people were less than a mile away from the city gate. ”

The Qing army dispersed in a hurry, Liu Yixian and the others breathed a sigh of relief, although they were ready to die, but who didn't like it.

Liu Bao led the troops into the city, passed by Liu Yixian patted him and said, "Well done, good job!" ”

Then he hurried to attack the county government to take over the city defense, and the resistance in the city was very weak, but it took a lot of effort to find out these bad guys who were hiding.

These people either have a cellar secret room at home, or they have prepared an outer house in the three caves of the cunning rabbit, but these people usually do too many bad things, and there are many people who hate them for not dying.

All that's left is to interrogate the prisoners while waiting for Luo Xu's main force to arrive.

In the afternoon of the next day, Luo Xu arrived with the main force, but the Qing army also followed behind, and the forward was only more than fifty miles away from Yancheng, and it was expected to arrive as soon as the next morning.

After Luo Xu entered the city, he briefly understood the situation of Liu Bao's interrogation, and began to formulate the next plan, and the original plan to go back to Bears Ears Mountain was lost.

The Qing army reacted faster than expected, the Qing army in Linyi went directly south, those from the north had already reached Zaozhuang, and Zahela joined the reinforcements from Xuzhou and copied from the west.

Now the only way out is to go south, but to the south of Pingchuan, it will be greatly convenient for the Qing army to encircle and suppress, because the Qing army still has cavalry!

Although the current situation is tricky, it is not dangerous, and the Second Division still has the ability to defeat one of the Qing troops and withdraw to Shandong, but it is still that problem, and it is not beneficial to bring the Qing army back to Shandong.

Luo Xu was scratching his head and thinking, and Liu Bao came over again: "Commander, what are we going to do next?" ”

Luo Xu glared at him, turned over the map without saying a word, and continued to look.

Liu Bao didn't get angry when he touched his nose, and said with a smile: "Division commander, you see, the Qing army has always thought that we and Fan Wei are in the same group, so if we pretend to go west, the Qing army will definitely not move to the west, and Zaozhuang's movement to the southwest will let the troops in Linyi go behind us, so that they won't give us a way back?" ”

Luo Xu looked at Liu Bao drawing on the map, frowned and asked, "What do you want to do?" ”

Liu Bao said with a smile: "Don't do anything, I just thought, we can neither go south nor too far north, let's just go here......"

Luo Xu took a breath: "Linyi? Isn't that good? It's a big city, you don't think it's as easy to fight as Yancheng, right? ”

Liu Bao said with a smile: "Of course, our purpose is not to fight Linyi, but to attract the Qing army, we can set up an ambush here and give the Qing army such a moment, what is this called?" Siege Wei to save Zhao! Right! It's what the general said about encircling the point to send reinforcements! ”

Luo Xu nodded: "It really takes time for the other two Qing troops to support in this way, we can defeat this Qing army, and just send the people who have taken refuge to the base area, okay!" That's it! If you don't give him a hard beating, they still have to bite us! ”

Liu Baole said: "Teacher, you are really good, just do it!" As long as I guarantee that a regiment will give you a beautiful one, more than 5,000 people still want to surround us! ”

Luo Xu patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, there is a difficult task to be handed over to you now!" I don't know if you can do it well? ”

Liu Bao put his legs together: "Guarantee to complete the task!" ”

Luo Xu nodded and said, "Okay." I now order your troops to move in the direction of Xuzhou, make a main posture along the way, and find an opportunity to return north to Bears Ears Mountain in three days. ”

Liu Bao was dumbfounded: "What? ”

Luo Xu glared: "What?" Do you want to disobey? ”

Liu Bao said unhappily: "Yes, I promise to complete the task." ”

Luo Xu continued to look at the map, and after a while, he saw that Liu Bao was still dangling in front of him, frowned and asked, "Why don't you go to research how to complete the task well?" ”

Liu Bao said with a smile: "Haven't you asked in detail yet?" Commander, you drink water. ”

Luo Xu looked at him with disgust, Liu Bao came up and said: "Division commander, you have to tell me, the villages and towns along the way must be beaten, but in order for us to pretend to be a little bit like this, we must take a detour to the south, hit a big town or county, and lead the Qing army far away~"

Luo Xu nodded: "Be careful not to play too much, don't be caught up!" I can't rescue if you run away, if you are surrounded, no one will save you! ”

Liu Bao smiled and said: "Although I don't have the beauty of President Wu, the general said that he has me in his heart!" ”

Luo Xu said with contempt: "Less stinky and poor!" Get to work! ”

Liu Bao suddenly asked, "When do you think we can drink the happy wine of President Wu and the general?" ”
