On the wall of Qichun County, Zhang Xuan stood at the northernmost head of the city with his hands, looking at Qishui more than ten miles away, he could clearly see the official road on the east bank of Qishui, although the distance was far away, but with superhuman eyesight, Zhang Xuan could still see Du Fuwei's army marching north on the official road.

The corners of Zhang Xuan's mouth couldn't help but show a faint smile, and he said slowly to Fang Xuanling beside him: "Du Fuwei is decisive and brave, but the overall strategic situation is still far behind, and the resourcefulness is not enough. ”

Fang Xuanling also smiled: "Your Highness is far-sighted, far-sighted, and competing for hegemony, the tide of history has eliminated the heroes of one side one by one, but this Du Fuwei still has to go against the times, the way of heaven is not allowed, except for sacrificing the sky with a broken body, Weichen can't imagine what will happen to him." ”

Zhang Xuan said coldly: "You can inform General Xu to prepare, Du Fuwei's road ends here, but Du Fuwei's play will continue to be performed, and the performance will be lively, so that the monarchs and ministers of Chang'an will have a good time!" ”

"Weichen understands that General Xu is ready, just wait for Du Fuwei to enter his pocket."

Zhang Xuan nodded, he no longer cared about Du Fuwei's life or death, he was thinking about the strategic deception he deployed, this time, he wanted to let the monarchs of Chang'an completely fall into the pit of the Eastern Crusade.

Lujiang County is located in the northeast of Qichun County, and due east is Tong'an County, because the west of Tong'an County is a mountainous area, the traffic is very inconvenient, even if the soldiers can go over the mountains and mountains, the mule cart carrying grain can not pass, so Du Fuwei did not consider going to Tong'an County to loot, but directly killed Lujiang County.

Three days later, Du Fuwei led the army through the Duozhi Mountain, into the territory of Huoshan County, Lujiang County, this area is open, the hills are gentle, but the population is sparsely populated, the population of Lujiang County is mainly concentrated around Chaohu Lake and near Hefei in the north, and Huoshan County is close to Dabie Mountain, although the terrain is gentle, but there are not many water sources, so the population is relatively much smaller.

Du Fuwei led his army all the way north, and many people escaped, but he also captured a lot of strong men, so that his army was always maintained at about 4,500 people, although the number of troops was not much, but Du Fuwei knew that as long as his army entered the Chaohu Plain, his army would rapidly expand to tens of thousands.

Du Fuwei rode his horse and looked around, only to see the majestic mountains in the distance, and the low rolling hills in the near distance, with forests scattered on the hills.

Although the soldiers were exhausted, Du Fuwei still wanted to go to Nanping Town in front to rest, so he ordered: "Speed up the march and go to Nanping Town in front to rest!" ”

When the soldiers heard that there was a small town ahead, they all beat their spirits and rushed forward at a faster pace.

A quarter of an hour later, thousands of teams arrived at Nanping Town, a town with 100 households, due to its location in the traffic hub, the business is very prosperous, and it is also quite famous in Lujiang County, but to Du Fuwei's disappointment, the town is empty, everyone has run away, except for a dozen wild dogs, there are no living creatures.

At this time, all the soldiers looked at Du Fuwei, although the people ran out, but it seemed that the things were still there, maybe there was still oil and water to fish, Du Fuwei himself was tired, he saw that it was almost dusk, so he waved his hand and said: "Enter the town to rest, and set off early tomorrow morning!" ”

When the order was given, thousands of soldiers rushed to the town, kicked open the doors, rushed into the house and began to rummage through the cabinets, which seemed to be the custom of this army, and no one would believe Duvoy's promise of wealth for future generations, these soldiers were mostly ruffians, each of them had their own minds, but they were much the same, and in the shortest possible time they grabbed wealth, especially easy treasures such as gold and silver.

Du Fuwei also knew that at the beginning of the army, satisfying the soldiers' desire for wealth was the only way to build an army, and only by waiting for the future to slowly control the army and improve military discipline could only go with the flow.

Duvowe was also exhausted, and he and a few of his own soldiers went into a large mansion and took up residence.

At this time, behind a hill three miles away from the town, a boundless cavalry has been waiting for a long time, this is the main force of 30,000 cavalry led by Xu Shiji, by Luo Cheng, Sun Changle and Mai Mengcai, three tiger Benlang generals each led 10,000 cavalry, their target is not Du Fuwei, but Jiangxia Tang Army, but at this time the chicken slaughtering knife was used, they wanted to annihilate Du Fuwei's army, and he would never be allowed to wreak havoc in Jianghuai.

Xu Shiji immediately looked at the small town of Nanping at the foot of the hill from the hill, and he could see groups of thieves looting every family's property in the town, and many soldiers had large bags and small bags, and they had a lot of property.

A hint of murderous intent flashed in Xu Shiji's eyes, and he coldly ordered: "Pass my order, the army will surround Nanping Town!" ”

The 30,000 cavalry was quickly mobilized, and the cavalry rushed westward like a torrent, and they slaughtered the Duvowe army from all directions, which was immersed in the pleasure of plundering.

Du Fuwei had just eaten dinner and was about to rest and fall asleep, when a soldier stumbled and rushed over, and when he entered the door, he hissed and shouted: "The general is about to retreat, the Sui cavalry is coming!" ”

Du Fuwei stood up suddenly, stepped forward and grabbed the messenger soldier and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Sui cavalry...... Tens of thousands of Sui cavalry came from all directions and were about to surround us. ”

Du Fuwei was like being struck by lightning, he finally understood that he had fallen into the trap of the Sui army, and Li Yuan gave him a false information.

"Li Yuan harms me!"

Du Fuwei shouted, rushed to the yard and turned over his horse, more than 20 personal soldiers also got on the horse, Du Fuwei waved his big knife, "Rush out with me!" ”

Du Fuwei couldn't take care of the other soldiers anymore, saving his life first is the king, he just rushed out of the gate, but he saw Han Huang riding a horse and rushing, "General, the northwest corner has not been surrounded, quickly break through from the northwest corner!" ”

Du Fuwei's mind was in a mess, and he almost instinctively followed Han Huang to the northwest corner, where there was a forest, and he saw two Sui cavalry of about 1,000 people outflanking and killing from both sides of the forest.

Han Huang shouted, "Rush over!" ”

Du Fuwei whipped violently, the war horse accelerated sharply, and rushed into the woods at the moment when the Sui cavalry closed, he was scared into a cold sweat, buried his head in the woods and galloped, I don't know how long he ran, Han Huang pulled his war horse from behind.

The war horse finally stopped slowly, Du Fuwei was shocked for a while, and when he turned around, he found that except for Han Huang, none of the personal soldiers behind him had followed, and all of them were intercepted by the Sui cavalry, which made him feel discouraged.

Han Huang comforted him and said: "General, stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood, as long as the general is safe and sound, there will always be a chance to make a comeback." ”

"You're right, but what I'm going to do now, I don't even know myself." Duvowe let out a long sigh.

"Why don't you return to Jiangxia first?" Han Huang asked tentatively.

Du Fuwei pondered for a moment and said: "Go to Hefei first, I still have a little power hidden in Lujiang County and Liyang County, that is my last hope." ”

Speaking of this, Du Fuwei took out a note and handed it to Han Huang, "We'd better split up, you go to Wujiang County, Liyang County, and find a person surnamed Jiang according to this address, he is my henchman who arranged to enter Liyang County in advance, and there are three hundred people on his side, let him bring all his men down to see me immediately." ”

"Then where do I go to find the general?"

Du Fuwei hesitated, but said slowly: "I will hide in Siding Mountain, which is another foundation for me, and if you tell him that I am in Siding Mountain, he will know how to find me." ”

"Humble duty understood."

Han Huang suddenly pointed to the east, "General, the Sui army is here!" ”

Du Fuwei was taken aback, and looked back hurriedly, but suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest, he turned around slowly, only to see a dagger pierced deep into his chest, he raised his head and looked at Han Huang in surprise, but Han Huang said coldly: "The reason why I rescued you is just to know how much power you still have hidden in Lujiang County?" ”

After saying that, he waved his dagger, and Du Fuwei only felt a tear in his neck, and he didn't know anything.

.........

A quarter of an hour later, Han Huang appeared at the entrance of Nanping Town with Du Fuwei's head, at this time Nanping Town was already a sea of fire, the Sui army set fire to the town, and the escaped thieves were killed by random arrows, and all the thieves who could not escape were buried in the fire.

As soon as Han Huang appeared at the entrance of the town, hundreds of Sui cavalry immediately surrounded him, and they looked at the person in front of them in surprise, and they were actually carrying a human head in their hands.

Han Huang said lightly to the cavalry: "Please go and report to General Xu Shiji, just say that General Hu Benlang and the commander of the internal guard, Liu Lancheng, ask to see him." ”
