As soon as the Hu army withdrew from the Emerald City, the troops of the Si army had already arrived at the city. Seeing the city gate open and no Hu soldier could see on the city wall, Qian Xiaoxing stopped at the horse and said strangely: "What's the name of Hu army? Could it be that the city plan? Logically, Luo Tianji does not have this skill yet."

Lu Shengzhong couldn't help but smile, "Seventh brother, you have thought too much. You have complicated simple things. I think they just ran away."

"So that's the case," Qian Xiaoxing smiled embarrassedly, but for the sake of safety, he ordered the scouts to go to the city to investigate.

After a while, the scouts came back to report: "Teacher Commander, Chief of Staff, no trace of Hu's army was found in the Emerald City. I asked the people in the city that Hu's army had indeed just retreated."

After hearing this, Qian Xiaoxing couldn't help but curse: "Banana, you bara, Luo Tianji's escape skills seem to be okay. If we are surrounded by us, we must destroy them."

Then Si Jun entered the Jade City, closed the city gate and arranged defenses, and Qian Xiaoxing sent someone to investigate Hu Jun's movements.

In the evening, the scouts came back to report that the Hu army had retreated to the mountain city. Although Qian Xiaoxing guessed this result, he always felt something was wrong, but he didn't know where the problem was. After thinking about it, he immediately ordered the soldiers to inform the generals and prepare to hold a military meeting.

After everyone arrived, Qian Xiaoxing spread out the map and said, "Hu army has retreated to the mountain city. What do you think."

Sima Chuchu immediately said: "The whole mountain city is not far from Shan, and there is only one city in the middle. Let's go and attack Shan Capital!"

"Fight and beat! You know that even beat Shan to save your father, don't you think about the consequences?" Qian Xiaoxing couldn't help but curse.

Sima Chuchu didn't think too much. When Qian Xiaoxing scolded her, she had to pout and say, "Then what are the consequences do you think there will be?"

Qian Xiaoxing said helplessly: "If we go to fight Shandu, if Shandu can't be defeated for a while and the capital of Hu is attacked, the border troops of Hu will give up the defense of the outside world and will definitely come back to rescue. At that time, we will be surrounded by more than 200,000 Hu troops. What do you think we will do?"

"I..." Sima Chuchu thought for a while, but there was no way, and she lowered her head and said, "I can't think of it."

Qian Xiaoxing had no choice but to say: "In theory, we will attack the whole mountain city next, but if the Hu army retreats again, we will be led to the hinterland of Hu. Although Hu Guoshan has increased the danger, at the same time, the danger of our Si army has also increased. Therefore, if we fight or not, it is difficult for me to make a choice."

"You can't fight!" Lu Shengzhong immediately objected and said, "Our State Si finally had these 60,000 troops. If you are trapped, it will be over. Everything will be stable."

Qian Xiaoxing looked at the other generals and nodded one after another, supporting Lu Shengzhong's opinion, and had to say, "But, I'm in a dilemma, I don't dare to advance, so I'm just stopping here?"

After hearing this, everyone started to discuss it in a low voice. As long as more than 200,000 border troops in Hu were still there, it was obviously a very risky act to enter the hinterland of Hu to attack Shan Capital. It seemed that the fat piece of Hu was still not easy to eat.

Ni Qiu, chief of staff of the brigade of the Zongheng Cavalry Regiment, seemed to have thought of something, stood up and said, "Chief of Staff, since we cannot move forward at the moment, we can use the power of Shiguo and Linguo. I think it is time to unite and everyone will destroy these Hu troops together."

Qian Xiaoxing agreed with this suggestion and said, "This idea is good. Shi Guo has long been united with our country. It is a pity to leave such a relationship without any need. As for Lin Guo, he will not come. As long as Shi Guo can attack Hu Guo, the Hu defense line will completely collapse. Then send someone to Shi Guo to inform King Shi that he can attack Hu Guo with all his strength."

After hearing this, Shi Yeying said, "Then I'll go. I haven't been back for a long time. Just give the Yeying Group to Chuchu."

"Will I not be alone that night?" Qian Xiaoxing blurted out.

"My task was also handed over to Chuchu that night." Shi Yeying smiled.

"Uh..." Qian Xiaoxing was stunned for a moment.

Seeing that everyone was covering their mouths and laughing, Lu Shengzhong immediately said, "Okay, that's it, let's go, the meeting will be over!"

Sima Chuchu and Shi Yeying walked out together, and Sima Chuchu complained in a low voice: "Sister Ying, why do you say this in front of so many people?"

Shi Yeying asked back, "Am I wrong? Don't you like Qian Xiaoxing? He has a lot of wives anyway, so there are not many more of you."

"Who said I like him? He is a big gangster and a big bad guy. I don't like it anymore." Sima Chuchu defended.

Shi Yeying smiled and said, "Okay, you don't like big hooligans and big bad guys. Some people like it. I think Lu Jin likes him too. Don't blame me for not reminding you."

"This..." Sima Chuchu began to think after hearing this, and Shi Yeying said, "Think slowly, I'll go back and prepare first."

The next day, Qian Xiaoxing bid farewell to Shi Yeying and asked him to pay attention to safety all the way. Then he returned to the Emerald City. Qian Xiaoxing estimated that Shi Yeying would return to Shi Guoyidu, and then Shi Guo sent troops to attack, which would take at least half a month. It seems that he could only wait during this period.

Two days later, Qian Xiaoxing was inspecting the garrison situation in the city. Lu Shengzhong walked quickly and said, "Seventh brother, something is wrong."

Seeing Lu Shengzhong's face serious, Qian Xiaoxing asked anxiously: "What happened?"

"I just received the information that five hundred Hu army cavalry crossed Lanjiang from somewhere, arrived at Noguchi City, burned our salt factory, plundered a lot of people's property, and more than a dozen people were killed."

"What!" Qian Xiaoxing said angrily: "You Luo Tianji, you don't have the ability to fight, you are good at doing these small moves!"

Lu Shengzhong said anxiously: "We don't have one soldier and one soldier to defend the seven cities in the south of the Yangtze River. These five hundred cavalrymen are like entering a no-man. I heard that they are still going to Liudao City, and they probably have to destroy our iron plant!"

Qian Xiaoxing thought that the salt factory he had worked hard to build was burned and the iron smelting plant was about to be destroyed again. He was so distressed that he said angrily: "This is great. We must not let them do anything wrong. We immediately send two thousand cavalry back to encircle and suppress them, and kill me no one."

"Well, no one I want to kill is left!" Lu Shengzhong was also very angry.

After a while, two thousand cavalrymen of the Cavalry Brigade of the Army rushed out of the Emerald City and headed towards the south of the Yangtze River...

In the city of Shanshan, Sima Yiqing and Luo Tianji sat together and discussed the matter. Luo Tianji said in admiration: "Teacher, we retreated to the city of Shanshan. As expected, Si Jun dared not attack again."

Sima Yiqing snatched his beard and replied: "Qian Xiaoxing is not stupid. If he dares to rush his army straight in, we will have to fight him to the death. Only Shi Guo and Lin Guo will take advantage of it."

"Then we sent 500 cavalry this time and secretly crossed the Lanjiang River. What is the real purpose?" Luo Tianji of course understood that the 500 cavalry going to Jiangnan would be just harassment at most and would not have much impact on Si State. Sima Yiqing's doing this must have a deeper meaning.

Sima Yiqing laughed and said, "These five hundred cavalry, like the sand in Qian Xiaoxing's eyes, will definitely make him feel extremely uncomfortable. What I want is this effect. In this way, we can also arrange the next plan."

"The teacher's plan is one step after another. The students admire it. What is the next plan?" Luo Tianji asked.

Sima Yiqing came to the table, looked at the map and said, "There are roads everywhere here, and I can send 10,000 soldiers to each place."

Luo Tianji followed the place Sima Yiqing pointed to, and saw that Sima Yiqing said the four locations, each in the upper, middle and lower reaches of Lanjiang, and was hundreds of miles apart. He asked strangely: "Teacher, we have a total of 60,000 soldiers. If we are scattered, what should we do if Qian Xiaoxing defeats them one by one?"

Sima Yiqing waved his hand and said, "The purpose of my doing this is to create an illusion, that is, our troops will cross the Lanjiang River and go to Jiangnan to burn, kill and loot. If Qian Xiaoxing wants to defeat each one, his 60,000 troops will definitely not be able to take care of all the troops. As long as there is a place for the troops to cross the river, he will not be able to withstand it."

"So, Qian Xiaoxing will definitely distribute troops to reject them, but our soldiers' quality is not as good as the Si Jun. If we really fight, we will suffer a loss." Luo Tianji analyzed.

Sima Yiqing smiled and said, "I didn't say I wanted to fight with the Si army. If the Si army divided the troops and fought later, our troops would retreat. As long as we could hold the Si army down."

"Then what is the purpose of doing this?" Luo Tianji asked in confusion.

"You will know this in the future, let's make arrangements first." Sima Yiqing kept a secret. Luo Tianji didn't ask much after hearing this, and immediately went back to allocate troops. He sent 10,000 infantry each in the four places Sima Yiqing said.

Two days later, Qian Xiaoxing finally received news that the 500 cavalry of Hu, who were running around in seven cities in the south of the Yangtze River, had been eliminated by the two thousand cavalry sent there. However, this time the Hu army burned, killed and looted, many people were persecuted, and the factory was destroyed, which made Qian Xiaoxing heartbroken.

It is really difficult for Hu Jun to do sabotage and harassment like this. Qian Xiaoxing couldn't help but have a headache. Lanjiang is so long and if Hu Jun wants hundreds of people, he can find a place to go. The Si Jun cannot send troops to defend the entire line.

Thinking of the scene when he used hot air balloons to harass Hu Jun outside Qingyu City, Qian Xiaoxing now has a deep understanding of why Hu Jun had to gamble to Cangqiong Pass at that time, because harassment tactics really make people crazy.

When Qian Xiaoxing was considering whether he would guard several thousand cavalry in Qingyu City in the middle of the seven cities in the south of the Yangtze River to shock the Hu army, he saw Lu Shengzhong walk over and say, "Seventh brother, the Hu army has been moving. I have received the latest information. The Hu army has 40,000 infantry, divided into four teams, and headed to the Lanjiang River."

"His grandma!" Qian Xiaoxing cursed: "Is Hu Jun addicted to harassment? He sent 500 people last time, but this time he sent tens of thousands of people. Where did the 40,000 people go?"

Lu Shengzhong spread out the map, pointed to the four locations and said: "There are ferries and roads in these four locations. I guess they just want to cross the river from these locations."

"We must not let the Hu army cross the river!" Qian Xiaoxing was a little excited and said, "If we let them cross the Lanjiang River and so many people are dispersed, we will have to arrest them for half a year even if we catch them. That would be a big trouble."

"We can't let them cross the river." Lu Shengzhong also agreed and asked, "How to stop them?"

Qian Xiaoxing thought about it and said, "Since they are divided into 60,000 of them, and we are divided into 60,000 of them to block the attack. The Hu army is mostly infantry. We have cavalry, even if we fight ten thousand and ten thousand, we can defeat the Hu army."

Lu Shengzhong thought for a while and reminded: "Seventh brother, after the division of troops, our troops were also dispersed and it was easy to be defeated by each one. Could this be the trick of the Hu army?"

"Break each one?" Qian Xiaoxing thought for a moment and replied, "Whatever Hu Jun defeated each one, he only had 60,000 people. Besides, at the level of Luo Tianji, he could create any tricks. Brother Zhong, don't worry."

Although Lu Shengzhong was a little worried, seeing that Qian Xiaoxing was so confident, it seemed that he was really worried. He replied: "Okay, I will allocate my troops and go to block the Hu army."

"Well, we will allocate the 10,000 cavalry of the Zongheng Cavalry Regiment equally, and send 2,500 people to each route to assist the infantry in blocking the attack." Qian Xiaoxing reminded.

Lu Shengzhong thought about it and after the division of troops, the safety of the Emerald City where Qian Xiaoxing was located should be guaranteed first, and said, "This is OK, but the 4,000 people from the Dark Knights will stay in the Emerald City."

"The Dark Knights can't run fast, so stay in Emerald City. I have no objection to this." Qian Xiaoxing replied.

After Lu Shengzhong was assigned, there were 4,000 Dark Knights, 6,000 female soldiers of the Wild Cherry Group, and 10,000 infantry left in the Emerald City. Then the other military troops immediately set out and headed in four directions to block the Hu army.
