Zhang Xuan's soldiers captured Fei County and Linyi without blood, completely exterminating Sun Xuanya and Meng Rang, and the news spread to Zhuan County a few days later, and Wang Bo immediately panicked.

From the time they found out that the Sui army was a fake garrison in Zhuan County, Wang Bo realized that Zhang Xuan was likely to attack the east and west, attack Liyu and attack Linyi, but the final result was still beyond his expectations.

It turned out that Zhang Xuan used Mengyin Fort as a bait, and then attacked Liyu County, luring Sun Xuanya to attack Mengyin Fort, and the Sui army quickly killed back, and then plotted against Chen Haishi and Zhao Liang to seize Linyi County.

In the lobby, Wang Bo was pacing back and forth in the room worriedly, he thought that Zhang Xuan would continue to attack Liyu County after he hit himself hard in Lu County, but he didn't expect that Zhang Xuan would make a false shot and turn around and destroy Sun Xuanya.

Wang Bo couldn't help but sigh for a long time, and said to his wife and brother Xu Shunming: "The last time we defeated Pei Renji's southern expedition, it was because the two armies were each other's horns, so that Pei Renji lost one and the other, and finally failed miserably, but this time Zhang Xuan attacked the east and west, false and real, so that both of us did not dare to easily save each other, lest we fall into his ambush, but he concentrated his forces to eat them one by one, he destroyed the cooperation of our two armies, this person may not be as experienced as Zhang Xutuo in leading troops to fight, but the strategy is far above Zhang Xutuo, I am afraid that Liyu County will not be able to hold it." ”

Xu Shunming saw the fear in his brother-in-law's heart, and estimated that he wanted to give up and retreat westward from Liyu County, so he persuaded: "Since most of our materials have been transferred to Lu County, and even our family members have left, leaving the county has become a chicken rib, I mean that since Liyu County is no longer the main foundation, then the brother-in-law does not need to stay here, send an ordinary general to guard, and then transfer to Lu County to operate." Wait for the right time to make a comeback. ”

Wang Bo nodded silently, Xu Shunming said what he thought, although Zhuan County will not give up immediately, and it is still needed to contain Zhang Xuan's army, but there is no need for him to stay here anymore, he should go to Fangshan Xinzhai.

"Alright! Tonight we escort the last shipment. Left the county overnight. ”

In the evening of the same day, the torches were lit in front of the west city gate, and the night was illuminated as day, and nearly a thousand ox carts and mule carts were parked in front of the city gate, full of cloth, copper, coins and other goods, and the grain had been sent away.

Of course, the warehouse door was locked with iron. There is also a seal, and it seems that there are still a lot of belongings inside.

Wang Bo wore armor and helmet, riding on a majestic horse, and he asked impatiently, "Why hasn't General Liu come yet?" ”

"The lowly position is coming!"

General Liu Haochun ran over quickly, saluted Wang Bo and said: "Go to inspect the barracks, come one step late, please forgive the king!" ”

Wang Bo snorted coldly and said to him, "After I leave." You give me to defend the county and try to hold Zhang Xuan back. If you hold Jang Hyun for at least two months, I will give you a heavy reward, but if the city is lost, will you come to see me? ”

"Humble, remember!"

Wang Bo didn't say anything more, and shouted: "The army is leaving!" ”

An army of 6,000 guarded 1,000 carts slowly started and drove towards the city gates. Wang Bo left the city under the strict escort of hundreds of his own soldiers, and walked into the dark night, and after half an hour, the army finally disappeared into the night.

"Close the gates!"

Liu Haochun shouted, and the city gate slammed shut. The drawbridge was pulled up, Liu Haochun turned around and walked towards the warehouse, when a soldier ran over and whispered: "General, the lowly duty has been counted, and the grain is indeed only a thousand stones." ”

Liu Haochun scolded in a low voice, most of the grain was transferred, and they had two thousand soldiers, but they only left one thousand stone of grain, and let him hold on for two months, obviously to let them go to the city to plunder the grain.

Hundreds of soldiers surrounded the main general Liu Chunhao to the front of the warehouse gate, which was locked by a huge iron lock and a seal was affixed to it, "Smash open the door!" Liu Haochun ordered in a low voice.

Dozens of soldiers slammed open the door of the warehouse with a huge log, and everyone rushed in, and they were stunned by the scene in front of them, the warehouse was empty, only a few hundred large wooden buckets containing money remained, and there were only a few rotten money and cloth on the ground.

Liu Chunhao thought that Wang Bo would leave a little money for him to motivate the soldiers, but he didn't expect to move all of it to Wang Bo.

Liu Chunhao's face instantly turned pale, and he couldn't say a word

Three days later, Zhang Xuan led 9,000 troops to arrive in Zhuan County, the gate of the county seat was opened, Liu Chunhao did not resist, he led 2,000 soldiers out of the city with white flags to surrender.

The scene that Wang Bo didn't want to see happened again, the 2,000 soldiers he pinned his hopes on didn't even resist for an hour, and surrendered directly to the Sui army, and the fuse that led to the surrender of the soldiers was the empty warehouse, which was also a consequence that Wang Bo never dreamed of.

Zhang Xuan did not stay in Zhuan County, he left the partial general Du Yunsi to lead 1,000 people to guard the county, pacify the people, and disband the surrender army.

Zhang Xuan himself, under the leadership of Liu Chunhao, marched quickly to Lu County to kill

It is only 30 miles west from Zhuan County to enter the mountainous area of Lu County, and the big mountains of Beiwei Mountain, Niqiu Mountain, and Fangshan are hundreds of miles long, with lush forests and sparse population.

Wang Boxin's foundation is not far from Qufu County, this area has a slightly larger population, and the mountain is steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is a good place to fall into the grass.

As early as two years ago, when Wang Bo first arrived in Luxian County, he began to look for a way out in Lu County, he incorporated a remnant of Xu Yuanlang in Fangshan and fell grass, and chose Fangshan as his retreat, Wang Bo has been sending people to operate in the past two years, so that his cottage has gradually become quite large-scale.

After defeating Pei Renji's army for the first time a few months earlier, Wang Bo realized that the Sui army would once again march south to Langya County, and from then on he began to transfer food supplies on a large scale, and moved his family to the new village of Fangshan.

It wasn't until Zhang Xuan completely exterminated Sun Xuanya that Wang Bo realized that danger was coming, and he had to abandon his old nest and retreat to his third lair.

Fangshan is about 250 miles away from Liyu County, mainly on mountain roads, rugged southward, a large number of heavy wagons march very slowly.

There is a cloud in the art of war: 'Thirty is a rounding'.

This means that the army should march thirty miles a day, stop at night to rest, and maintain sufficient physical strength. And wait for the grain and grass behind to be loaded, and if the march is too fast, it is easy to lose touch with the load, resulting in the baggage grain and grass being captured by the enemy army in ambush.

Although Wang Bo did not walk only thirty miles a day, he did not retreat quickly, and his baggage march was slow, and he only walked less than fifty miles a day.

After three days of marching. Wang Bo led the army to the vicinity of Niqiu Mountain, a hundred miles away from Fangshan, and it was getting late, so the army camped in a deserted valley to rest.

"Is my brother-in-law still worried about Liyu County?" Xu Shunming walked up to Wang Bo and sat down and asked with a smile.

Wang Bo shook his head, "I'm not worried about Liyu County, I'm sorry for the kindness of the woman in the past, I had several opportunities to eat Sun Xuanya directly, but I couldn't do it, if I had all Langya County." It's not like this today. ”

"Actually, I think Lu County is also very good, the north is Daishan, the east is Beiwei Mountain, Guishan, the south is Zhoushan, the west is Juyeze, surrounded by mountains and rivers, rich in products, and there is no Sui army stationed, it is a good place to divide the territory. If Xu Yuanlang hadn't been greedy and attacked north, he would not have been wiped out so quickly. I think we can develop well in Lu County, and maybe there will be a chance to counterattack Qi County. ”

Xu Shunming is very good at talking, and when it comes to Wang Bo's heart, Wang Bo's brows stretched a lot, and he said with a smile: "You are right, I am going to build a ship by Juye Ze." If the Sui army comes to encircle and suppress, we all hide in Daze, if the Central Plains is in chaos, we can map the Central Plains in the west, and the Juyeze water system extends in all directions. I was even able to enter the Tongji Canal, and I was thinking in the past two days, first hiding in Fangshan for two years, and then entering the giant field to develop, and I would be able to grow step by step. ”

"Brother-in-law can see it, it's the best, everyone says that Langya County is too poor, and it seems a little embarrassing for us to leave Langya County, but in fact it is a wise move."

Wang Bo smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "That's right, there is progress, it's not too early, go to sleep!" We're on our way early tomorrow morning. ”

"Brother-in-law, rest well, I'll go first."

Xu Shunming returned to his lodging, Wang Bo was really a little tired, got into his small tent, and soon fell into a deep dream.

At about four o'clock, Wang Bo was woken up by the hurried call of his own soldiers, "King! Wake up, urgent information. ”

"What's the matter?" Wang Bo asked in a daze.

"Our patrol has found traces of the Sui army!"

"Ahh

Wang Bo suddenly woke up from his sleep, and he asked nervously, "Where did you find it, how many Sui troops are there?" ”

"Just twenty miles to the north, there are about a dozen people, who should be scouts of the Sui army, all cavalry, galloping across an official road."

"Light the lamp for me!"

The soldiers lit an oil lamp, and Wang Bo hurriedly opened a map, twenty miles to the north was Surabaya County, and the official road that the soldiers said was to Surabaya County.

"Could it be the Sui army of Lu County?"

Wang Bo pondered for a moment, he felt that it was unlikely to be the main force of the Sui army, and the main force of the Sui army would not go to Surabaya County, it should be the local army of Lu County.

But no matter what, Wang Bo had an ominous premonition in his heart, they couldn't go slowly, they had to set off immediately, hurry up and return to Fangshan, and there were really long nights and dreams on the road.

"Pass my orders, pack your belongings immediately, and get ready to go!"

Wang Bo gave the order to set off, and the soldiers woke up from their sleep, complained in low voices, and began to listlessly pack their belongings.

At this moment, several screams came from the mouth of the valley, and the screams spread far away in the silent night, and all the soldiers froze.

In a moment, several sentries rushed over and shouted, "Oh no, Taniguchi has been sealed by the Sui army." ”

There was chaos in the valley suddenly, Wang Bo was so anxious that his eyes were red, and he grabbed the soldier's shirt and asked sharply, "How many Sui troops are there?" ”

"I don't know, there are at least thousands of people in the black press."

At this time, the patrol soldiers from the north also rushed to shout: "Great King, the Sui army was found in the north of the valley, and there are thousands of people!" ”

The north and south of the valley were blocked, and the soldiers were terrified, and he was extremely afraid of the Sui army's attack, so that they were burned to death in the valley.

Wang Bo had gradually calmed down, and at this time there was no other way than to break through, he shouted sharply: "Pass my order, kill out of the valley to break through!" ”

'Boom! Boom! Boom! The drums of the battle were beating, and the drums were earth-shattering, and Wang Bo's 6,000 soldiers shouted and broke through to the south to kill.

Arrows were fired outside the valley, knocking down the soldiers who broke through one by one, and just when Wang Bo had nothing to do for a while, Xu Shunming rushed over and said to Wang Bo in a loud voice: "King, I have a plan to break through!" (To be continued.) )
