In Dingbian County, more than 5,000 rebellious troops, including Zhang Zhongming, were very quiet After five days, several officers above the general level were directly summoned by Zhang Zhongming.

In the face of these henchmen, Zhang Zhongming did not hesitate and said bluntly......

"Brothers, we have been trapped in Dingbian County for more than half a month...... The rest of the food is only enough for us for five days......"

"What that means, I'm sure, is clear to everyone...... Some people may say that after three days, we will not fulfill our promise and will not let go of the more than 700 prisoners in our hands, and use these prisoners to continue to blackmail the Tiger and Par Army...... However, I would like to tell you that you can only use any method once. If we don't keep our promises, not only will we not continue to threaten the Haw Par Army, but we will anger them......"

"So, after three days, we have to fulfill our promise and release ......"

"The loss of captives, coupled with the depletion of food...... Five days later, even if there is no attack by the Haw Par Army, we will be starved to death......"

"So, Ben will decide...... Before returning the captives to the Haw Par Army, taking advantage of the lack of preparation of the Haw Par Army, they abandoned Dingbian County and broke through in the direction of Ningxia...... As long as we return to Ningxia, we can continue to live......"

One stone stirs up a thousand waves...... As soon as Zhang Zhongming's words were finished, several subordinates became boiling. There are those who agree, there are those who oppose it, and of course, there are those who wait and see.

At this time, a thousand generals suddenly opened their mouths and asked: "General, the last general wants to know whether the whole army will break through together, or only a part of the breakout, and the remaining soldiers will continue to stay in Dingbian County, covering the breakthrough troops and asking the tiger and leopard army to pursue ......."

Mr. Qian's words are compared with Zhang Zhongming. It's not as shocking, though.

But. This sentence is even more tempting...... Because. This sentence directly reminded them of a breakthrough half a year ago.

In order for himself and the elites under his command to survive, the commander Zhang Zhongming directly abandoned the main force and fled with a few elites.

Although these thousands of them are the elite in Zhang Zhongming's eyes, they were brought out by Zhang Zhongming.

However, what Zhang Zhongming did was, in their opinion, too chilling......

Right now. They are again faced with the option of breaking through...... If only a part of the people break through. That means that at least one of these people must stay......

As for who stays, it depends on what Zhang Zhongming thinks in his heart...... After all, Zhang Zhongming is still their commander

Therefore, as soon as Mr. Qian's rhetorical question was spoken, several people became lively.

A pair of eyes, as if they had been negotiated. At the same time, he gathered on Zhang Zhongming, and with full expectation, he waited for Zhang Zhongming's answer.

As the commander-in-chief, Zhang Zhongming certainly knows what everyone thinks.

Without thinking about it, he replied: "The Haw Par Army is eyeing the city ten miles away. It's impossible to evade their detection...... So. In this breakthrough, except for the wounded soldiers who could not move, everyone else broke through...... As for whether you can break through or not, it depends on your luck......"

"Luck ......" Hearing these two words, a puzzled expression appeared directly on the faces of several thousand presidents......

Facing everyone's gaze at him, Zhang Zhongming directly affirmed: "Yes, it's luck...... I'm going to break out in four different directions in four ways...... The cavalry division of the Haw Par Army has only three regiments of troops, and at most it can only catch up with three of the breakthrough troops...... That's why I said, whether you can avoid these three pursuits depends on your luck......"

"There is no doubt that the four-way breakthrough troops can only return to Ningxia as soon as possible if they break through to the west. However, surprisingly, after Zhang Zhongming finished saying this, no one chose to break through to the west......"

In their eyes, they knew that they could return to Ningxia as soon as they broke through to the west, and the Haw Par Army also knew it.

Therefore, in the process of pursuit, the soldiers who break through to the west will definitely be the focus of the pursuit of the Haw Par Army......

Seeing that everyone chose the direction of breaking through, but ignoring the direction to the west, Zhang Zhongming's face suddenly flashed an unnoticed sinister smile.

At the beginning, Zhang Zhongming's thoughts were the same as theirs, the Haw Par Army would definitely focus on pursuing the army that broke through in the direction of Ningxia.

However, after thinking about it seriously, Zhang Zhongming suddenly found that he was wrong......

If the Haw Par Army focuses on pursuing the westward breakthrough troops, there will be a breakthrough force all the way, and they will ask the Haw Par Army to control zhì in a short time.

With the equipment and limited grain and grass in the hands of the soldiers under his command, as long as they are willing, they can definitely bring a very strict destruction to the surrounding counties in a short period of time......

Compared with destroying itself, reducing the losses of the soldiers and the casualties and losses of the people of Shaanxi is obviously more important to the Haw Par Army, which loves the people like sons and attaches great importance to the people's will.

Therefore, as long as they break through the siege, the Haw Par Army will definitely destroy the enemy who is still active in Shaanxi as soon as possible......

For this secret, at this critical juncture of life and death, of course Zhang Zhongming will not say it.

After confirming everyone's choice again, Zhang Zhongming directly decided: "Since this is the case, the breakthrough troops to the west will be personally commanded by General Ben...... However, in a few days, Qian captured all the equipment and firearms of the Haw Par Army in the city, and all of them must be equipped with more than 1,000 soldiers under the command of the general...... Because, as everyone knows, breaking through to the west is the most dangerous ......"

In either case, there is no reason to refuse this request.

Therefore, more than 1,000 new-style muskets, tens of thousands of grenades and supporting ammunition equipped with more than 1,000 field units of the Tiger and Leopard Army all fell into Zhang Zhongming's hands without accident.

When several thousands of presidents left Zhang Zhongming's room one after another, Zhang Zhongming, who had been holding back for a long time, finally smiled, and laughed very happily.

He believed that the troops he led would definitely be able to ask the Haw Par Army to pursue them......

And with more than 1,000 new muskets and tens of thousands of grenades, as long as time permits, there is no problem in dominating the whole of Ningxia......

Zhang Zhongming, who was smiling heartily, seemed to have seen the picture of himself successfully answering Ningxia and becoming the king of Ningxia......

A day later, under the cover of night, more than 5,000 rebellious soldiers, who only carried weapons and five days' worth of dry food, quietly left Dingbian County and began their escape like ghosts in the night.

Under the cover of night, the news that should have reached Sun Chengzong's ears in half an hour was only reached in Sun Chengzong's ears after half an hour. At this time, Zhang Zhongming's four-way breakthrough troops had left the county seat of Dingbian seven or eight miles away......

In the face of Zhang Zhongming's sudden move, Sun Chengzong did not dare to slack off, and immediately ordered the cavalry division to pursue...... (To be continued......)
