On the ninth day of the ninth month of September, on the day of the Double Ninth Festival, the Chenggu Qing army recaptured Xie Gong Town.

But the matter was not over, and soon, Zhou Shaoyong's army in Xixiang launched a counterattack like Chenggu. At the same time, the Lan Dynasty Pillar Army in Yangxian County also strengthened the strength of the former Gongzhen, giving the Chenggu Qing Army a greater containment.

Chenggu, Yangxian, Xixiang——

Nan Zheng –

Guangyuan, Ningqiang Prefecture -

The small Hanzhong Mansion has formed three battlefields that are fighting against each other. It was in such a situation that Liu Xian led his army to the Sichuan-Shaanxi border.

"I've seen Futai under the mark."

Zhaohua County Ya, Liu Xian met Liu Rong, the family of 500 years ago. is worthy of being a famous person in the literary world, maybe a month is long enough, and the cultivation is different, Liu Xian can no longer see the slightest panic and sorrow from his face.

"Liu Xiezhen!"

Liu Rong looked at the young lieutenant general in front of him, who was very famous in the Hanzhong realm, and the recent rise to fame, with scrutiny and curiosity in his eyes.

It was this person who led the troops to stick to the city, contained half of the strength of the Taiping army, burned the western camp, relieved the siege of Fengxian, and saved the future of all the officials in Hanzhong at that time, and even the lives of their families. He is famous in Hanzhong!

It is also this person who is in a critical moment to stop the enemy's front, seven or eight battles, Yan zhòng sluggish Shi Dakai's march, no matter whether it is God's help in the end It rained heavily, thwarted Shi Dakai's strategy to march into Chengdu, and defeated Shi Dakai in Mianning Xiaodao, he is a well-deserved hero. However, in Sichuan, the army regarded him as cheap, and the officialdom regarded him as an outsider, which was out of place. As soon as Hanzhong was in danger, he was kicked by Luo Bingzhang!

"Don't dare to be an adult!"

Xiezhen, or Xietai, is the title of the deputy general in the officialdom. But it is definitely the name of the subordinate to the superior, and there are few people at the same level who call it so formally, Liu Rong is the dignified governor, and Liu Xian dares to take on it. Besides, the other party treats you as an outsider entirely.

Liu Rong nodded slightly, and the rusty atmosphere seemed to have decreased a little. briefly introduced the situation in Hanzhong to Liu Xian, and Liu Rong pointed to the Qingshi Pass on the map.

"Mark it and get it!"

Liu Xian clenched his fists and retreated. Qingshi Pass, the road to Nanzheng——

Rushing from Zhaohua to Bayuguan in the east non-stop, I didn't have time to take a look at Guangyuan, the main battlefield in Hanzhong today, Ningqiang Prefecture. Liu Xian knew that there were now two battalions of Zhu Guiqiu and Zhang Yougeng's Guizi and Xiangdao in Bayuguan, with a number of about 5,000 people.

Although the strength of Zhu and Zhang is comparable to his current military bravery, these two belong to the background of the Hunan army, not to mention that Zhu Guiqiu is still a deputy general, it is impossible to listen to Liu Xian's orders, and his own trip to Bayuguan is not much different from fighting alone.

After walking on the road for two more days, Liu Xian saw the shadow of Bayuguan. This is a small place, Zhu Guiqiu and Zhang Yougeng's two 5,000 people, together with the recruited eldest husband, can't be stuffed at all. Therefore, except for some of the personal soldiers and Zhu Zhang stationed in the pass, most of the Qing soldiers were stationed outside the small battalion.

Liu Xian led the army all the way over, and his troops and horses attracted the attention of many people.

After all, the queue is so neat under the long journey, and there are so many carriages, horses and artillery, looking at it gives people the appearance of an elite soldier.

If you want to say why it is a long journey, everyone is a person who fights, just look at the appearance of Liu Xian's army up and down. Besides, Liu Rong will definitely send someone to greet Zhu and Zhang when he goes to Bayuguan, and many people in the Qing army here know that there is a reinforcement from afar that will arrive today.

Under the long march, the military queue can still be so solemn, not to mention that the team rarely has words in the march, except for the sound of footsteps, that is, the sound of rolling carriages and horses, the solemn and majestic military force of the soldiers, it is undoubted.

Such an army is not an elite army, can it be that those teams that are noisy all the way on the march will dare to fight?

Liu Xian also carefully observed the camping of the Qing armies of Zhu and Zhang. Compared with Du Niang's introduction to the Hunan army camping and hardening the village, Zhu Zhang's second department was too lax.

Maybe it's because these people are stationed behind the gates, so there is no danger. Liu Xian could only convince himself like this.

Until I arrived at Bayu Pass, I saw that the flag was like a cloud at the pass, and there was a dense wooden fence outside the pass, and I did not relax and slack off because it was the pass, and the Hunan soldiers with swords and spears stood solemnly, rendering the momentum of a golden iron horse. I felt that 'this is what the Hunan Army looks like'!

After the pass, before Liu Xian's soldiers and horses arrived, a group of military attachés wearing horse coats came out of the gate. The two people at the head are middle-aged, burly, and have a face of age and weather.

"But Zhu and Zhang are two adults, and they have to welcome each other. In the lower Liu Xian, I have seen it! ”

Liu Xian didn't plan to weaken his momentum. No matter who stands behind Zhu Guiqiu and Zhang Yougeng, there is no need for a deputy general with good strength to be inferior to them.

However, Zhu Guiqiu and Zhang Yougeng are not people who don't have a little bit of city government and can't stand the slightest agitation. On the contrary, the two of them also felt that Liu Xian, who was slightly arrogant, was normal, after all, he sat in the position of deputy general at a young age, young and arrogant, how could he be humble and warm like an old oilman.

The commanders of the two sides met, and then introduced their own subordinates. Liu Xian was only followed by Fan Debang, Xiang Fa, Zhang Zhongkui and Huo Guangcheng, far less than the number of more than a dozen people behind Zhu and Zhang. But there are only two of Zhu Zhang's more than ten subordinates who can make Liu Xian pay attention.

A twenty-year-old Qian Zong, named Zhang Yan, the one who looks handsome, and his complexion is very arrogant, and his eyes are full of disbelief when he looks at Liu Xian.

The other is a big man in the prime of life, Du Si, named Zhu Baoguo, with a scar on the right side of his face that is almost cut in half. The expression is rough, the appearance is fierce, and the breath is extremely fierce!

These two people are handsome and ugly, and they are all Zhu Guiqiu's subordinates.

"Lord Liu came from afar, first set up camp to rest, General Zhang and I have found a place to camp for you, the soldiers and horses will be placed first, and tonight I will meet my colleagues in the army to pick up the wind and wash the dust for Lord Liu."

Liu Xian thanked him loudly, and then thanked Zhang Yougeng, and then led him down to the camping place under the leadership of a military attaché.

Behind him, looking at the mighty team of Liu Xian's army and the long queue of carriages and horses, Zhang Yougeng thought thoughtfully: "So much grain and grass? "Liu Xian, a newly rising general, if there is no strong support from external forces, not to mention guns, this is a long dragon-like carriage and horses, and it is impossible to afford it.

Zhang Yougeng's original impression of Liu Xian's 'grassroots' suddenly put a question mark, a big question mark!

Liu Xian's team set up camp for just one hour, and the speed quickly shocked everyone's attention.

Is this really an elite army? Don't be donkey and eggs, have a bright appearance, and live with a clean face! A deep suspicion rose in everyone's hearts.

Because the camp of Liu Xian's army is very simple compared to other military camps, it is completely a large square box surrounded by chariots and horses, and a tent is set up inside. The fence simply kicked down, and the ditch was gone.

Zhu Guiqiu and Zhang Yougeng are embarrassed!
