The vibration sound of the galloping horses came faintly from the road, and Shang Qingzhou looked at the people running on both sides of the road, and was suspicious.

"Phew~"

Shang Qingzhou reined in his horse, raised his whip and pointed at the girl on the side of the road and asked, "Are you from Youzhou City?" ”

The girl was not cowardly, and asked rhetorically, "Tell me who you are first?" There was a hint of anticipation in his voice.

Shang Qingzhou was a little surprised by the courage of a girl, and he subconsciously said: "I am a guerrilla general in the northern camp of the imperial court. ”

"Beidaying?"

The girl was suddenly a little deflated, she turned around and pointed to the east gate of Youzhou and said, "The east gate of Youzhou has been opened, and many people have run out." ”

The news of the spies was confirmed, Shang Qingzhou took a deep breath, turned around and ordered: "Dongcheng doesn't have to go, let's go directly to the border to find people from Beifu." ”

Looking at the few horses who walked away, Ruo Zhiyue had some regrets: "Why didn't Dongda Camp send someone here, so that this girl had to find it herself." ”

Shang Qingzhou whipped his horsewhip, and the war horse under him continued to accelerate in the neighing, and in less than half an hour, he came to the station of the Beifu Iron Cavalry.

Looking at the empty camp, Shang Qingzhou looked shocked.

He muttered, "Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on?" ”

"Look, General." The soldier behind him jumped down from his horse and pointed to the hoof prints on the ground.

As a heavy cavalry class, the traces left by the Beifu Iron Cavalry are also relatively obvious. Looking at the horse's hoof footprints all the way south, Shang Qingzhou wondered: "What are they doing when they go south at this time?" ”

With confusion in his heart, Shang Qingzhou returned to the Beidaying station outside Youzhou City.

As soon as the curtain was lifted, Shang Qingzhou saw his brother frowning next to the sand table, Shang Qingzhou's heart moved, and asked, "Big brother, is there something wrong?" ”

Shang Yunzhou glanced at him with a sad face, did not speak, and handed him the letter in his hand.

Shang Qingzhou looked at the general seal of the East Battalion above, and knew that something had happened, "Could it be about the Beifu Iron Cavalry?" He opened the letter and exclaimed, "Jiuqu rebellion has disappeared? This, how is this possible?! ”

Shang Yunzhou raised his hand to stop his younger brother's words, and he said in a deep voice: "I know that this is a hard thing to believe, and I also know that it is the task of the Dongda Battalion to track down the encirclement and suppression of the Jiuqu rebels, but now is not the time to hold them accountable, since the Jiuqu rebellion is out of the surveillance of the Dongda Battalion, then it only means one thing, the destination of the Jiuqu rebellion is not Yaoshan at all, and all of us have been deceived!" ”

"Not Yaoshan? Where else could that be? ”

Shang Yunzhou pointed to the marching map and said in a deep voice: "If I am a rebel and give up the option of going south into Yaoshan, then there are only two options, one is to take the northwest and return to the border of Dizhou. ”

Shang Qingzhou shook his head and said: "Go west, there is a garrison of Xiangming Pass in the southwest, and if you go there, you can only throw yourself into the net, and Dizhou in the northwest is our territory." Although it was because of Gao Bo that they were lucky to let them escape, they really want to go back now, and the difficulty is no less than attacking Xiangming Pass. ”

"That's what I mean, then they only have the option of going east." Shang Yunzhou paused and hesitated: "It's just that the northeast is in the direction of Fuzhou, where the Dugu family is the birthplace, and there have always been heavy soldiers guarding it, not to mention that there are Beifu iron horses there." ”

"Why can't it be southeast?"

"Southeast?" Shang Yunzhou shook his head and said: "The southeast direction is Luzhou, where there is a flat river, there is no danger to defend at all, and going there is undoubtedly death." ”

Shang Qingzhou pinched his chin and groaned, "This is strange. ”

The two brothers looked at each other for a long time, and Shang Yunzhou suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, didn't I ask you to go to Yuwen Hu?" What did he say there? ”

Shang Qingzhou scratched his head: "It's strange to say, I went to the camp where our people contacted the Beifu Iron Cavalry before, and it was already empty. ”

"Could it be that Yu Wenhu got the news a long time ago and went back to protect the old lady of the Dugu family?" Shang Yunzhou guessed.

"No, looking at their footprints, it seems to be heading southeast."

"Southeast?" Shang Yunzhou frowned and looked at the map of Luzhou, "Assuming that the Beifu Iron Cavalry really left because they learned the information in advance, then it proves that Jiuqu's rebellion is indeed going to Luzhou, but it is located in the Central Plains, the terrain is flat, and it is the area where the Beifu Iron Cavalry plays, compared with Youzhou City, it is only the difference between early death and late death, why do the rebels want to go there?" ”

"Big brother." Shang Qingzhou's trembling voice came, he swallowed his saliva, pointed to the east side of the map and said, "You say, will those Jiuqu rebels go here?" ”

Shang Yunzhou looked at his younger brother's fingers, and his color changed suddenly.

"The mountains and forests of Yizhou, the tribes of Baiyi!"

．．．．．．

The black-faced general Yu Wenhu stared at Bai Shixiang who was strolling leisurely next to him with wide eyes.

Bai Shixiang has changed into a gray cloth coat, although he has regained some elegance, but the tattered fan in his hand looks really a little nondescript.

When Yu Wenhu was resting at the border of Youzhou last night, he received a request for help from Shang Yunzhou.

After the Youzhou affair was over, the Beifu Iron Cavalry did almost nothing, which made Yu Wenhu, who wanted to show his strength, a little depressed, and when he heard about asking for help, Yuwen Hu agreed without thinking about it, as long as he could stay outside for a while longer, it would be excellent.

He was just about to transfer his troops when a familiar face appeared in front of him. Looking at Bai Shixiang, who had not been seen for many days, Yuwen Hu came up with a bear hug, he was happy from the bottom of his heart, not because of how deep his friendship with Bai Shixiang was, but because the head of the hundred families came with him, if Bai Shixiang had any three long and two short, it was impossible to say that the old lady would take his head to make amends to the hundred families.

After Bai Shixiang pushed away Yu Wenhu, who was covered in stinky sweat, in disgust, he immediately told Yuwen Hu about Jiuqu's rebellious movements.

Yu Wenhu couldn't help but be overjoyed, this was the credit that fell from the sky, he immediately put Shang Yunzhou's request for help behind him, jokes, compared with these big people in the previous dynasty, what is there to fight in a Youzhou.

Under his order, the Beifu Iron Cavalry began to act that night, and almost at the same time as Qiao Qi and the others set off, the Beifu Iron Cavalry also began to go south.

Because the Beifu Iron Cavalry knew Qiao Qi's destination, at the suggestion of Bai Shixiang, they took a shortcut and rushed directly to the border of Luzhou and Yizhou, preparing to wait for work at the border and ambush the Jiuqu rebels, so the time was extremely abundant compared to the rebels.

At this time, the Beifu army was preparing lunch in a small forest.

Yu Wenhu stared at Bai Shixiang for a long time, and then looked at the so-called "servant" in his mouth brought by Bai Shixiang. When he saw a burly fat man, Yu Wenhu's eyes narrowed, and his intuition told him that this was an extremely dangerous person.
