On the eighth day of the second month of the sixth year of the first year, the army gathered in Yunnan began to set off, and quickly pounced on Hunan, due to the rush of time, the transportation of grain and salary was not enough, and the 100,000 expeditionary force only brought ten days' rations, marched on foot, first along the gallop road into Guizhou, and then into the Hunan border. **

After a short rest, Li Xiaowei's 10,000 pioneers took the lead in entering Loudi, where the mountains are surrounded by mountains and peaks everywhere, and the march is extremely difficult.

At this time, it was in the early spring period, the blooming flowers were dotted among the mountains, and the peaks of the clouds were blocked at the feet of the Ming army due to the natural barriers, Li Xiao looked at the surrounding terrain and frowned, Li Xiong and Kehaduo agreed on the landing time after ten days, that is to say, the vanguard army must arrive at Changsha City within ten days, such a short time, it is really difficult to cross such terrain and then rush to Changsha City, fortunately, the Ming army has the subject of trekking and cross-country when recruiting recruits, even if it is assigned to the battalions, Every morning, you also need to run five kilometers of long-distance running, although the physical strength is overdrawn, but the military order is like a mountain, everyone is trying their best to persevere, and it is not impossible to rush to Changsha after ten days.

"Lord Commander, the mountain roads here are continuous, there are lofty mountains and mountains everywhere, the terrain is very dangerous, if the Qing army sets up a team of ambushes here, I am afraid that it will suffer." A general who followed Li Xiao was full of worries, they had seen the sand table of the Loudi terrain, and they didn't think how terrifying the undulating terrain in the sand table was, but now that they are on the scene, they feel how dangerous it is.

This sentence reminded Li Xiao, Li Xiao frowned and stopped his steps, a large army passed by him, many people's physical strength has reached the limit, and their expressions are all shriveled, if the Qing army sets up an ambush here at this time, I am afraid that something will be wrong.

Although Ke Hado surrendered, Li Xiong's words are also very credible, but everything is afraid of a case, once something goes wrong, it is not fun, once the elite of the 100,000 Ming army is buried, the past few years of crusade in the east and west will be in vain, Li Xiao beckoned, and said to the general: "You quickly go back to report to the Chinese army, let them go slow for the time being, and our army is separated by thirty miles, don't get too close, in addition, you can ask Mu Zongbing to lead a team of strange soldiers to find another way, once the vanguard army and the Chinese army fall into an ambush, You can immediately kill a way to rescue. ”

The general nodded, turned his horse and walked back, Li Xiao stopped and watched, the more he felt that this was a dead place, because the road was narrow and winding, the Ming army of 10,000 was five or six miles long in the march, and the tail could not echo, once someone in the mountain was killed, the Ming army could be cut into four or five sections, and then there was no unified command, and the contact was lost, then it became a turtle in the urn, Li Xiao did not dare to take this risk.

The general's fast horse galloped back, and in half an hour, he bumped into the Chinese army brigade that followed closely behind, and met Li Dingguo under the guidance of the soldiers along the road.

Li Dingguo's Chinese army is in the front team, Mu Jianming and Li Xiong are accompanying him, Li Xiong's chest is full of elephants, and Li Dingguo talks about quoting scriptures, which is very important to Li Dingguo, even Mu Jianming is listening to the wonderful, Li Dingguo thinks that Li Xiong is a talent, and is pondering the matter of recommending him in his heart, and sees a fast flying horse coming from a distance, Li Dingguo raised his eyes and looked, and recognized that the person was the general next to his son, so he waited on the horse, and waited for the general to come and dismount to see the salute, Li Dingguo asked: "General Wu, Is there any news of the Vanguard? ”

The general said: "The last general is here to tell General Li what he said." The general hesitated to glance at Li Xiong behind Li Dingguo, and closed his mouth with a somewhat embarrassed face.

Li Xiong turned the reins of the horse very knowingly and said, "Let's take a look over there." With that, he turned his horse and walked away to the other side.

A trace of doubt flashed in Li Dingguo's eyes. The general conveyed Li Xiaodi's words one by one. He also described the terrain in front of him. Li Dingguo listened attentively. I was also suspicious. He's a seasoned man. Be wary of everything. Although Li Xiong doesn't seem to have any problems. But he is still willing to proceed with caution. Nodding his head, he said, "Mr. Li is worried." Sword inscription. You take a team of men and horses to forge a new path. The Chinese army must also move forward slowly. Don't rush it. Let Mr. Li be careful. Even if the arrival in Changsha is delayed, it doesn't matter much. ”

The general nodded. Turned over and got on the horse. Li Dingguo was the chief military officer of the expedition. Mu Jianming got the order beside him. I also went to the headquarters to summon it. Li Dingguo stationed on his horse and stroked his beard and looked into the distance. That suspicion came out again. I always feel like something doesn't seem right. But there has been no flaw in the past few days. He couldn't figure out his thoughts.

"Lord Wang. Why is the Chinese army stagnating? Seeing that the Ming army suddenly changed its plan, Li Xiong patted his horse over. I feel a chill in my heart. The target of the ambush is the Chinese army. Taking advantage of the hasty and hurried efforts of the Chinese army, there was a sudden surprise attack on two mountain passes. He, Li Xiong, can take advantage of the chaos to get away. As long as the Ming army is surrounded by the Chinese army. It is trapped by the surrounding mountains. The grain and grass carried by the Ming army were insufficient. and weary. was truncated

It can echo from afar. This is his plan. If the Ming army is divided, the front is in front. The other way, Mu Jianming's department is on the side. Even if the Chinese army is surrounded. At that time, the striker will be the back finger. Mu Jianming rushed to the aid from the flank. Horns for each other. This bag is equivalent to a few big holes. It doesn't work.

Li Dingguo glanced at Li Xiong. Seeing that his face was as usual. It's just a little confusing. Therefore there was no suspicion of him. Explained: "The mountains and rivers here are exhausted. It is the place where soldiers must die. It's always better to be careful. Rest assured. The striker is walking forward day and night. General Li must go to Changsha City first. At that time, Changsha will also be able to take over. ”

Li Xiong was secretly anxious in his heart. On the surface, he didn't dare to show any flaws. He smiled reluctantly: "The prince is well arranged." It's safe. ”

Li Dingguo shook his head and said: "Not really, let's stay here for a while, wait for the forward to have news and then hurry, the soldiers are tired from the journey, it's time to rest, come, order the three armies to camp on the spot, take water and bury the pot, and boil some hot water for the soldiers to warm their feet." ”

Li Dingguo turned over and got off the horse, he was nearly fifty years old, and his body was not as tough as before, he gave a few military orders with a tired face, pulled Li Xiong's sleeve and said: "If Mr. Li is in spirit, how about accompanying this king to play a game?" ”

Li Xiong had nothing to do for a while, so he could only take one step at a time, and hurriedly responded: "Li dares to disobey his fate, the prince is wonderful, I just hope that the prince can show mercy." ”………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

In the mountain stream with continuous peaks and veins, a group of Qing soldiers wearing uniforms and eating bird guns were hidden during the lurk, in the upper reaches of a small stream, the big tent of Kohado stood on one side, and the rest of the Qing soldiers sat cross-legged around the big tent, they had been waiting here for a day, and the spies who were shuttling in the forest had come back to tell that the vanguard of the Ming army had crossed the Flying Tiger Stream in front.

The Flying Tiger Stream is located in the middle of the Twin Peaks Mountain and the Leper Ridge, both sides are high peaks, there is only a small road in the middle, Kehado's ambush soldiers are near the left of these two peaks, Li Xiao's vanguard army passed by here, Kehado did not take any action, but quickly withdrew the scout order The three armies lurked, his goal was the Chinese army of the Ming army, not a vanguard, as long as the Chinese army of the Ming army was surrounded, the Ming army could no longer toss.

Kohado's voice is about to come out, these few days are too exciting, originally he was just an unknown white flag commander, in Hunan may still be a character, but as soon as he arrived in the capital, he became a small fish and shrimp, which is also the biggest reason why he has Suke Saha's kinship and has not been cleaned, all the time, he has lived in many shadows, both want to keep his job, but also afraid of being convicted, finally, an opportunity came, he met Li Xiong, and recruited him, Just when Hunan was surrounded by the Ming army on three sides, Li Xiong proposed an almost impeccable plan, as long as this plan was carried out smoothly, he Kehado would become a great hero of the Manchurians, a peerless general of the Qing Dynasty, and the time had come for the salted fish to turn over.

Kohado rushed to the ambush site early, he ordered only 10,000 soldiers in the green battalion, compared to 100,000 Ming troops are simply not worth mentioning, but these are all the elite of the elite, and they are also very reliable, the mountains here are steep, as long as the Qing army is desperate to guard the various intersections, the Ming army can not get out of the encirclement even if there are millions of people, not to mention their food and grass, as long as they are hungry for a few days, they can be done, Kehado has reported to the green battalions in the provinces, he believes, as long as there is a sudden surprise attack on the Chinese army of the Ming army, And divide and surround them, hold on for a few days, reinforcements from the provinces will continue to come, and the morale of the Ming army will be demoralized due to lack of food and clothing.

Kehado was nervous to the extreme, and was proud to the extreme, this plan was really seamless, on the surface, he sent Li Xiong out just to surrender, at this time the Ming army of course would have some doubts, and hesitated, and then Li Xiong deliberately declared that this was a fraudulent surrender, the Ming army suddenly realized, thinking that they had uncovered the mystery, so it was natural to plan and rush to Changsha to give a fatal blow to the fraudulent surrender of Kohado, how could they never have thought that in fact, surrender is fake, and fraudulent surrender is also fake, The real purpose is just to confuse them, to deceive them into thinking that the main force of the Qing army is under the city of Changsha, and let them hurry to Changsha, in fact, there is already a team of strange soldiers waiting for them in the middle of the road.

Kohado sat in the position of the handsome account, and the other generals were on the left and right, their faces were inexplicably excited, Kohado glanced around, and said: "The vanguard of the Ming army has passed, then the Chinese army is probably not far from here, you must restrain the sergeants, you must not easily leave the team, let alone make a fire at will, as long as the main force of the Chinese army of the Ming army arrives, they will listen to the orders of the general army, and win this immortal feat." ”

"Wow!" A few generals replied very loudly. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please log in*, more chapters, support work, support genuine reading!) )
