Yang He, who led the Zheng family army to Wanxian, heard that Zhang Xianzhong had fought a bloody road and went in the direction of Liangshan, his face turned blue with anger, he knew very well that this was a bureau carefully laid out by Zheng Xunrui, as long as he went on step by step according to the plan, the extermination of Zhang Xianzhong would be just around the corner, but he couldn't imagine that there was a problem here in Ma Xianglin.

Ma Xianglin knew his mistake, and after seeing Yang He, he lowered his head and didn't speak.

Yang He is not good at complaining about Ma Xianglin, after all, he is not a sergeant of the Zheng family, and the only one who is qualified to speak is Zheng Xunrui, and he, the deputy general of the Zheng family, cannot trespass, otherwise he will make trouble for Zheng Xunrui.

At this time, there was only one way, that is, to speed up the march and quickly rush to Liangshan County to see if Zhang Xianzhong could be intercepted.

The losses of the white pole soldiers are also heavy, three thousand white pole soldiers, more than 1,000 killed, more than 500 seriously injured, less than 1,500 people who can continue to fight, more than half of the losses, the loss of the guard army is even greater, the number of dead reached more than 3,000 people, but the rogue was killed close to 10,000 people, that is to say, the sergeants under Zhang Xianzhong's command, there are only more than 10,000 people left, and there is one point that cannot be ignored, that is, Zhang Xianzhong is now fleeing for his life, as long as the rogue who was injured in the battle cannot be well healed, a little careless, It is possible to be eliminated by the army, so it is good that Zhang Xianzhong can retain about 10,000 sergeants.

But the remaining rogues must have extraordinary combat effectiveness.

Yang He and Ma Xianglin discussed it a little and made a decision to lead 10,000 soldiers of the Zheng family army to pursue along the direction of Liangshan, and Ma Xianglin stayed in Wanxian to rest. It is also necessary to prevent Zhang Xianzhong from killing back the carbine.

Wanxian is one hundred and sixty miles to Liangshan, but it is this one hundred and sixty miles, Yang He spent a day and a night to arrive, and the road is too difficult to walk.

rushed to Liangshan, but found no trace of Zhang Xianzhong. Yang He sent a large number of scouts.

Wang Xiaoer took the initiative to invite Ying, and once again led the capable scouts to investigate everywhere.

It is said that there was no trace of Zhang Xianzhong in Liangshan, and Yang He should have pursued in the direction of Dazhu, but he did not do so, and blindly pursued under the premise of not being familiar with the situation. It is impossible to have any effect, and the terrain around Kuizhou is too special, Zhang Xianzhong can hide wherever he hides, and he can cover his whereabouts, maybe at this time. Zhang Xianzhong was still hiding somewhere in Liangshan.

Yang He made this judgment for his own reasons.

Zhang Xianzhong broke through the encirclement arranged by Ma Xianglin in just half a day, Yang He led the Zheng army to Wanxian, to say that Ma Xianglin paid a little attention and laid down two lines of defense, Zhang Xianzhong had absolutely no way to escape, but unfortunately Ma Xianglin buried a great opportunity, Yang He led the Zheng army to set off overnight. Rushed to Liangshan, and there was basically no delay along the road.

Zhang Xianzhong and Ma Xianglin fought, and the consumption must be very large. That indicates that Zhang Xianzhong's march speed cannot be very fast, that is to say, Zhang Xianzhong may not have left Liangshan, it is very likely that he will rest somewhere in Liangshan, and leave after recuperating. Besides, Yangsan to Dazhu is not just a road. The rogues under Zhang Xianzhong's command have become stronger. It's entirely possible to choose a different path to move forward.

What is strange is that after three consecutive days, Wang Xiaoer did not detect anything.

There was no information coming from the direction of Dazhu, and there was no sign of large-scale rogues passing by.

This made Yang He confused, and he didn't know how to choose.

On the third day of June, Zheng Xunrui and Qin Liangyu rushed to Wanxian.

County office, wing, Ma Xianglin knelt on the ground, Qin Liangyu's expression was very bad, she felt ashamed, Zheng Xunrui's deployment is basically foolproof, as long as everyone implements the deployment requirements, but the problem actually appeared in his son's body, only half a day away, if Ma Xianglin can still hold on for half a day, Zhang Xianzhong will be completely wiped out, you must know that Zheng Xunrui sent 10,000 soldiers of the Zheng family army to Wanxian to exterminate Zhang Xianzhong.

Zheng Xunrui entered the wing room and saw Ma Xianglin kneeling on the ground, he hurriedly stepped forward and prepared to help Ma Xianglin up.

"My lord, this is all the mistake of the old body, the old body is willing to bear the punishment of a qiē, the adult painstakingly arranged, it was ruined, the old body cannot make up for it, the old body does not want to protect the short, Xianglin has not been able to fight according to the deployment of the adult, the guide zhì Zhang Xianzhong escaped, no matter how the adult is punished, the old body obeys."

After saying these words, Qin Liangyu's body trembled slightly, according to military regulations, Zheng Xunrui can behead Ma Xianglin, such a mistake is too big, let Zhang Xianzhong and more than 10,000 rogues under his command escape, the loss caused is huge, from the beginning of May, Zheng Xunrui has carefully arranged, trapped Zhang Xianzhong in the place where Wanxian and Yunyang meet, so that Zhang Xianzhong has no way out, can only choose to show his head, at this time, if the armies can cooperate well, they can completely exterminate Zhang Xianzhong.

Such a good opportunity is lost, and I don't know when I will be able to have a better opportunity.

When Zheng Xunrui saw Ma Xianglin, the battle of Chezhou Gorge popped up in his mind, just like that, at the last moment, when he saw that he was winning, he lost the opportunity.

"Mrs. Qin doesn't have to mind, victory or defeat is a common thing in soldiers, General Ma get up, this official heard that the losses of the white pole soldiers this time are also quite heavy, so it's better to have a good rest."

Ma Xianglin looked at Qin Liangyu and didn't dare to get up.

When Zheng Xunrui looked at Qin Liangyu, Qin Liangyu finally spoke.

"When you are told to get up, you get up."

After Ma Xianglin got up, he was reluctant to sit down, and he was embarrassed to sit down, he saw Zheng Xunrui clearly, and felt that Zheng Xunrui's youth was a little excessive, but this young adult, in the battle to destroy Zhang Xianzhong, made precise deployments, so that Zhang Xianzhong was cornered and almost suffered annihilation.

Zheng Xunrui will not punish Ma Xianglin, how to write a recital to the imperial court, he also thought about it, although Ma Xianglin does have a fault of being a heavy dà, but for the sake of Qin Liangyu's face, he does not care.

The map had been rolled out, and Zheng Xunrui opened his mouth with a stern face.

"Mrs. Qin, General Ma, don't mention the past, and then continue to encircle and suppress Zhang Xianzhong is the most important, this official received Yang He's report, a few days have passed, Yang He has not found any trace of Zhang Xianzhong, and there is no news from Dazhu, this is very strange, Fang County to Liangshan, that is, one hundred and sixty miles, Wang Xiaoer has led the scouts to reconnoiter a lot of places, without the slightest discovery, could it be said that Zhang Xianzhong is so powerful, he has passed Dazhu, and went in the direction of Quxian or Guang'an."

Qin Liangyu walked to the front of the map, and Ma Xianglin also followed.

There are a number of icons marked on the map, and these are the arrangements for the relevant battles.

Ma Xianglin looked at the map, suddenly thought of something, and spoke.

"My lord, the last general thought of a possibility."

Zheng Xunrui and Qin Liangyu looked at Ma Xianglin at the same time.

"In the mountains of Liangshan, there are many natural karst caves, these karst caves are very large, if someone is hiding in them, it is impossible to be discovered, and the last general will know that there are two large karst caves, and more than 10,000 people are hiding in them, without any problems."

Zheng Xunrui's expression became stern, and he thought for a moment.

"What General Ma said is very reasonable, Zhang Xianzhong's bloody battle in Wanxian County, it should be said that the consumption is huge, it is impossible to march quickly, and he needs to find a place to rest, but Zhang Xianzhong understands that the Zheng family army will definitely pursue behind, so he has to find a safe place to hide and rest, these caves provide him with the best location, as long as he finds the local people in the mountains, he can know the storage of the caves."

When he said this, Zheng Xunrui's expression relaxed a little.

"If Zhang Xianzhong really rests in the mountains, then he has no chance to escape."

After Zheng Xunrui finished speaking, Ma Xianglin followed and spoke.

"My lord, the last general pleads to atone for his sins."

Zheng Xunrui looked at Ma Xianglin.

"The last general is familiar with the terrain around Liangshan, and the last general implores to join the battle and search for Zhang Xianzhong with the soldiers of the Zheng family, this time Zhang Xianzhong must not be allowed to escape."

As soon as Ma Xianglin finished speaking, Qin Liangyu also spoke.

"My lord, just give Xianglin this chance."

Zheng Xunrui looked at Qin Liangyu and Ma Xianglin, and slowly spoke.

"Okay, but the official doesn't plan to let the Zheng family army enter the mountains to fight, the Zheng family army is all cavalry, there is no advantage in fighting in the mountains, the war horse has become a burden, the official's plan is still waiting for Zhang Xianzhong to come out of the mountains, Zhang Xianzhong can't be in the mountains for a long time, he doesn't have so much grain and grass, so the responsibility of General Ma is still very heavy, that is, we must firmly hold Wanxian, curb all land and waterways, and block Zhang Xianzhong's way out. As for Liangshan, let Yang He be vigilant, as long as he finds traces of Zhang Xianzhong, he will be dealt with hard. ”

Ma Xianglin was a little disappointed, his idea was to enter the mountains and find traces of Zhang Xianzhong.

Of course, Zheng Xunrui knows Ma Xianglin's thoughts, but when he enters the mountains to fight, there are too many uncertainties, even if he defeats the Liukou, people flee in all directions of the mountains, you can't chase them at all, watching people run, and there are many dangers in the mountains, and if you don't pay attention to falling under the cliff, you don't know how to die.

Therefore, Zheng Xunrui will not let go, although the white pole soldiers are accustomed to fighting in the mountains and forests, but every time the white pole soldiers fight, they cannot achieve a huge victory, they cannot completely annihilate the opponent, they are all small victories, but also because of the constraints of the mountains and forests, this kind of combat mode that is quite similar to guerrilla warfare, can continue to eat away at the opponent's strength, but it is difficult to form a fatal blow, of course, they can adhere to this combat mode for a long time, and constantly eat away at the opponent, and they can also achieve the final victory.

It's a pity that Zheng Xunrui doesn't have that much time. (To be continued)
