Since Qi Weilun assisted Wei Zeng in the uprising, he has been working hard for the stability of the hinterland of Yanbei. Wei Zeng can rest assured that he can fight with the enemy outside, and he has no worries at all, and Qi Weilun has made great contributions. Qi Weilun has always been benevolent, but for the sake of the overall situation, he has to perform some majestic acts.

"Everything is for the people of the world, as long as you can help the virtuous brother unify the world, all this is worth it. As long as the virtuous brother implements benevolent government in the future, so that everyone can live and work in peace and contentment, these tricks will no longer be used. Qi Weilun said secretly in his heart.

Wang Qinwei has been ordered to inquire about Yanbei, and those families are secretly dissatisfied with Wei Zeng, so he naturally knows it. It's just that in the past few years, Shui Qingliu has focused on leveling down disobedient officials, and has never had the opportunity to attack Yanbei.

Now that Shui Qingliu personally led the army to confront Wei Zeng, Wang Qinwei sneaked to Yanbei to contact these families who were dissatisfied with Wei Zeng, and wanted to light a fire in Wei Zeng's backyard.

Wang Qinwei's operation was surprisingly smooth, and several families all agreed under the temptation, and when the Mobei Zhantu people raised troops, they gathered the entire family to intend to rebel. It's just that the praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind, and they have long fallen into the net under the Qi Wei Lunbu.

It was the night moon and the dark wind was high, and in Stone Wind City, the little gangsters who were bought by the demon cultists lit fires everywhere to create chaos. The people of several families gathered in one place, and when the city was chaotic, they killed the city lord's mansion, wanting to kill all the high-ranking officials in the city and Wei Zeng's family, and then rebelled in the city.

It's just that these people didn't go far before they were intercepted by the men and horses arranged by Qi Weilun. In a fight, several people from the mutinous family were killed, and only a few escaped.

Zhan Tu attacked the south, and it was not only these people in Stone Wind City who responded to the rebellion, although some local guards were reminded by Qi Weilun, they were still murdered because of negligence. The Zhantu people who went south to enter the Kou. and several families who conspired to rebel echoed each other, causing a lot of chaos in the entire Yanbei.

Gu Chayi went south to plunder Xu Huai, trying to force the Suicheng soldiers to surrender. After receiving the news that the Zhan Turks were moving south, he immediately led more than 10,000 cavalry to the north to help.

The defenders of the border were fortified and strong, and Qi Weilun was already on guard against the rebellious family, so the Zhan Turks and the rebels were fierce. In fact, it did not cause much harm.

When Gu Chayi's horse team rushed back, several mutinous families were under the iron hooves and did not even have a chance to escape. The scattered Zhantu people failed to conquer any of the cities, and after the Gucha was killed, they had to retreat.

The Demon Cultists' plan to sabotage the stability of Yanbei's rear ended in failure. Qi Weilun instead took this opportunity to remove many unstable factors in Yanbei.

Asa, who was far away in the north of Mobei, was also persuaded by the demon cultists to attack Yanbei in the south. Asa agreed. But on Asa's way south, the front of the army was directed at the empty Zhantu tribes in the rear.

"Our next step is to attack a small city in the northeast of the river, there are not many people there, but there is an abandoned iron mine, as long as we can occupy it, we will no longer have to trade with those black-hearted Central Plains people." Asa commanded, and then led his army west.

Shui Qingliu attempted to cause chaos to Wei Zeng, who was fighting in Guanbei, by disturbing the rear of Yanbei. Thus defeating Wei Zeng. However, Qi Weilun strategized and made the Zhantu people who invaded Yanbei return in vain. He also suppressed several wealthy families who colluded with the demon cultists to rebel, and smashed Shui Qingliu's conspiracy. When Guchayi's horse team returned, all the chaos was calm.

Wei Zeng was also very nervous after receiving the news of the attack on the rear of Yanbei, slowed down the attack on the army of Guanbei, and prepared to return to the reinforcements as soon as there was a problem in the rear of Yanbei. At the same time, Shui Qingliu led the army to keep an eye on Miso. Seize the opportunity and attack Wei Zeng.

A month later, the rebel family was completely suppressed, and the horse team that was no match for Gu Chayi was driven back to Mobei, and Wei Zeng could finally let go and start a decisive battle with Shui Qingliu.

The Yanbei army has not stopped fighting for several years, especially the battle with the iron-blooded army for more than a year. The combat effectiveness of Yanbei soldiers has been greatly enhanced. After the baptism of iron and blood, even a coward can grow into a warrior, not to mention the Yanbei boy who is already generous and sad, and values righteousness and death?

Although the army of Guanbei is not weak, after all, it has not experienced a major battle for a long time, and the demon sect has eliminated a large number of disobedient generals in order to consolidate its position, which has greatly damaged the combat effectiveness of the Guanbei army. Therefore, when the Yanbei army launched a posture and attacked with all its might, the Guanbei army was defeated and retreated.

After several battles, in the bloody battle in March, Shui Qingliu had lost the land of a hundred miles south of Lu Yecheng, and all the large and small cities were occupied by Wei Zeng, and Lu Yecheng was also exposed to the troops of the northern army of Yanbei.

Now Wei Zeng's eyes are the forest sea surrounding Lu Ye City, the forest sea is boundless, and the mist will always rise in the morning and dusk, making the forest sea even more mysterious.

"The main altar of the Demon Sect is in this forest, and when they were surrounded and suppressed by the officials and soldiers in the past, they hid in the dense forest and fought with the officials and soldiers, and they have not been exterminated by the officials and soldiers. It's a pity that the imperial court is mediocre, and it actually allows the demon cultists to infiltrate the high-level of Guanbei, and these demon cultists can now do evil in the name of blatant cruelty, which is really unreasonable. If we want to attack Lu Ye City, we must pass through this deep forest and tell the soldiers in front of us that we must be careful and not be plotted by the demon cultists. Wei Zeng commanded.

After hearing Wei Zeng's instructions, the generals strengthened their defenses, entered the forest, and advanced in the direction of Lu Ye City.

"Li'er, your entire family was killed by demonic cultists. I promised you that I would take revenge on you, and today I will fulfill my promise. If I can't wipe out the demon cultists this time, I won't retreat. Wei Zeng touched the jade pendant hanging on his chest, and said secretly in his heart.

Shui Qingliu had already returned to Lu Ye City at this time, and in the face of the disadvantaged battle situation, Shui Qingliu was resentful in his heart. After more than four months of fighting, not only did Wei Zeng not be defeated, but he lost a hundred miles of land, and he was naturally not happy.

"Could it be that the rear of Yanbei is really monolithic? The Zhantu people and the Yanbei Hao clan fought together, and they didn't even take down a big city? As soon as Gu Chayi's horse team returned, all he had to run away from? Shui Qingliu asked.

"The rear of Yanbei is indeed very united. Wei Zeng was originally from Yanbei, and he has done okay in the past few years, but after the incident of those wealthy families, not many people responded at all. And although Qi Weilun of Stone Wind City is only a scholar, he is also a little smart. For a while, we couldn't make the rear of Yanbei chaotic. Wang Qinwei replied.

"The Zhantu people in Mobei are simply scattered. Although they sent troops together, they fought separately and did not cooperate with each other at all. If they can gather their troops in one place, they can also take a few border cities. The current Zhantu people are really a mess of mud that can't be pasted on the wall, no wonder there were 100,000 troops a few years ago. was also defeated by the 30,000 people led by Wei Zeng. Zuo Qinwei said resentfully.

"It seems that everything is on our own, and I am really blind to rely on the Zhantu people. However, the horses of the Zhan Tu people still have to be obtained, and a cavalry unit is formed, and we will have more chances of winning against Wei Zeng. Shui Qingliu commanded.

"Lord Demon Lord, rest assured, although the attack on the hinterland of Yanbei failed this time, it is not for nothing. I have already brought back a few thousand horses, and I will trade some with the Zhantu people to form a cavalry team of 10,000 people. When the time comes, Wei Zeng will definitely hate this. Zuo Qinwei replied.

"Very well, you go down and arrange to go. I'll give you whatever you want. This cavalry unit must be formed as quickly as possible. Now Wei Zeng has led people into the dense forest, which is our territory, and Wei Zeng must not be allowed to take advantage of our territory. Shui Qingliu commanded.

"We have been operating in the dense forests around Luye City for decades, and we are very familiar with the terrain, in the past, whether it was the official army or the Death Sect, as long as we entered the dense forest, there was only one way to die. Wei Zeng dared to enter the dense forest, so he didn't want to take any advantage. Wang Qinwei said.

"Listen. Although we have lost a lot of land in the past few months of fighting, we only need to defeat Wei Zeng in a dense forest. We can take back all the land. It is our doorstep, at our own doorstep, do we still have to be bullied by others? There is no room for mistakes in this battle, otherwise we will see you. Shui Qingliu said sternly.

Several demon guards and more than a dozen demon leaders all made up their minds when they heard Shui Qingliu's words. Then he left Lu Ye City and ambushed the army led by Wei Zengsuo in the dense forest.

The primeval forests around Luye City stretch for hundreds of miles. Luye City is also named after this boundless forest. There are many natural treasures in the primeval forest, as well as countless fierce birds and beasts, and there are many logging camps scattered among them, which have become a means for the people of Luye City to make a living. Now Wei Zeng led tens of thousands of people to a logging camp.

Ever since entering the Forest of Lu Ye City, some cyan figures have often flashed. When Yanbei's soldiers chased after him, those cyan figures had long since disappeared. Walking in the dense forest, no one dares to be left alone, because all those who have fallen behind have become a corpse when they are found.

Wei Zeng knew very well that not far from him, there were countless demon cultists in ambush. With their familiarity with the dense forest, these demon cultists often sneak up on the Yanbei army, and although there are not many dead, they are vigilant all day long, and they also make people panic.

"Tell the soldiers, don't deviate from the main road to chase and kill those squads, follow their respective generals closely, and don't fall behind. As long as our large army is gathered, the demon cultists will not be able to help us. Wait for Lu Yecheng to fall, and then slowly clean up these scattered people. Wei Zeng was resting in the logging camp, conveying orders, and he was also annoyed by being harassed by the Demon Cultists these days.

"But General, is this really possible? According to the Malay report from the front, a large number of men and horses were sent from the direction of Lu Yecheng, but we did not know the movement of these horses at all. Marching like a blind man like this, we are very passive, and it is not good in case of a sneak attack. Jiang Luqing said.

Jiang Luqing had a lot of good ideas to fight against the Guanbei army, and Wei Zeng had already leaned on him as a humerus. Lu Yecheng is the base camp of the demon sect, and it is not trivial to send troops to Lu Yecheng, so Wei Zeng took Jiang Luqing with him and consulted at any time.

"I also know that fighting the Demon Cultists in this dense forest is passive. But we can't stop. In the past few months, we have won one victory after another, and the morale of the soldiers is just right, and we can defeat Shui Qingliu in one go. Wei Zeng said.

"I understand the general's meaning, but the enemy is in the dark, and I am in the light, and it is difficult for us to guard against it. These days are just some small-scale sneak attacks, but they have already made the soldiers uneasy. You must know that the enemy's main force has not been eliminated yet, and I am afraid that these scattered sneak attacks of the enemy are just a strategy to exhaust the enemy, or it will be a long time before they will make a big move. Jiang Luqing expressed his doubts in his heart.

"Now that you've thought of it, is there a way to deal with it? I also know that this is very passive, but I really can't think of a good solution. Wei Zeng said with a sigh.

"If you want to turn passive into active, you can only lure the snake out of the hole. After we have drawn the enemy out, we will concentrate our forces on annihilating them, and we will naturally be able to change the situation that we are always on guard against. It's just that in order to lure them out, you need to cast a large enough bait. Jiang Luqing said.

"Oh? You go on. ”

Just when Jiang Luqing wanted to continue, a group of Tsing Yi people appeared around the logging camp, and when they saw Wei Zeng's banner, they shouted and killed him.

There were a lot of these people in Tsing Yi, obviously they came prepared, and after they rushed out, more Guanbei soldiers wearing green armor killed them, and the target was directly aimed at Wei Zeng.

The soldiers of the Yanbei Righteous Army were resting, and when they saw the hordes of enemies killing, they got up to protect Wei Zeng.

These demon cultists naturally came prepared, and after hearing about Wei Zeng's movements, they gathered tens of thousands of people to capture and kill Wei Zeng.

Under the protection of Yanbei soldiers, Wei Zeng broke through the encirclement of the demon cultists, and when Yu Chaogui led the left army to support, those demon cultists retreated.

After escaping the siege of the demon cultists, Wei Zeng and Jiang Luqing glanced at each other, and then laughed.

"I don't really need to talk about it, but as soon as I mentioned the bait, the fish came. Jiang Luqing, you kid is still so bold, you are the only one who dares to use me as bait. Wei Zeng said with a smile.

"I was going to make a good arrangement. Who would have thought that this fish could not wait like this, and it was indeed a little funny to be so embarrassed this time. Jiang Luqing replied with a smile.

"What are the generals and Mr. Jiang talking about? What fish bait, I don't understand at all. These demonic cultists are truly hateful, and I will go to destroy them. Yu Chaogui said.

"No need. The enemy is familiar with the terrain and you can't catch up. If you rush there, you will be ambushed by the enemy. But don't worry, I've already got a plan, and these little ghosts hiding in the shadows won't be arrogant for a few days. You go and inform the right army led by Miss Sa, we are about to have a big battle to fight. Wei Zeng's face was solemn and he ordered.

Yu Chaogui ordered someone to send someone to inform Sagali. Wei Zeng and Jiang Luqing continued to discuss how to lure the enemy out. (To be continued.) )
