Eighteen rounds
This time when everyone gathered together again, there was nothing else except dry food, swords and guns. Huan Zhen knew that it had been delayed for a lot of time. If he didn't leave quickly, he might have to block the official army's nest. He immediately shouted loudly. Fu Shan was accompanied by Liu Heihu and personally set off the road ahead. Huan Zhen and Hui Dengxiang were pressing the formation behind, and five or six thousand people, including his family, were winding away. He was afraid that he would reveal his movements, so he ordered the battalions to command, and the chief of the post and the flags of each team to restrain his subordinates at all levels. He must not light up half a spark of fire or make any sound.
Liu Heihu's path was very familiar. A Fu Shan who looked at the familiar map was added next to him. He led the way in the dark, and there was no mistake in leading the way. Guotian Army walked north along the mountain path and quickly left Xiaowutai Mountain. On the way, Huan Zhen continued to send spies to monitor the movements of the official army and made several rewards. Chang Rong seemed to have not discovered that Guotian Army had abandoned the camp and was still heading towards Beitai according to the original marching route. Huan Zhen felt a little relieved and arranged two posts to escort the families of soldiers who could not fight to escape. The rest of the people made a big circle from the north to the west. Thanks to his mountain running training method, the marching speed of these bandits was really
Scratch and scream, without saying that when the sky was dawn, he had already moved back from Xijingou to the mountain. After passing Xijingou, it was the boundary of Xitai Peak. According to Fu Shan's plan, he had to send scattered cavalry and harasse the official army for several days. He had to ask the official army not to leave immediately, but also to make them unable to figure out where the main force of the Tianjun Army was. To achieve this goal, the best hidden place is Xitai. Xitai Peak is the steepest and most dangerous mountain in Xiaowu Taichung. Everyone was almost climbing the mountain. Soon they were so tired that they were exhausted. Some of the poor physical constitution almost fell behind. Seeing this, Huan Zhen saw that he had already walked to the mountainside and ordered the troops to sit down and rest.
When the soldiers heard this, they lay down on the ground as if they had received a pardon. Some people took out dry food to eat, some people lie down in the mountain stream and some took off their shoes to lie on their backs, and they were in chaos. Huan Zhen saw it and shook his head secretly, thinking that after this matter, he would have to fix it. Even if he had broken up with Hui Deng, he would not care about it. Otherwise, with such military discipline, even if there were 50,000 people, it would have been only 50,000 bandits. Suddenly, he thought that since he knew to send spies to follow the official army, why did he see that the official army would not leave any spies everywhere he passed? He immediately called Liu Heihu and asked him to lead people to investigate the surroundings, and he must do it well. He felt that it was not appropriate enough, so he summoned the commands of each battalion to communicate them layer by layer, and he must not leave any traces. Everything was arranged and he sat down to rest.
He sat there, slowly chewing dry food in his mouth, thinking about the current military situation. Have the government troops arrived in Beitai now? Has the fire broke out in Beitai? The fire of the house in Beitai was extinguished? The generals of the government army would order to pursue in which direction they would be found by the government army? What if his troops were discovered by the government army? Suddenly, they thought that although he was determined to rectify the army, there was no prescriptive rule in his heart. How could he rectify it? There was no plan at all. This was a first-class problem. Even if he had a comprehensive plan, there was only one Huideng Xiang in his eyes. How could he be at his mercy? These questions were circling in his mind, and none of them could come up with the answer, which made him feel unwilling to accept it.
Hui Dengxiang walked to him and sat down, handed him a sheepskin water bag. Huan Zhen took it over, drank it all, and said casually, "Thank you." Hui Dengxiang was stunned and said, "Brother, I almost fell into the trap of a traitor. I misunderstood my brother, and I was so sad." Huan Zhen was upset, responded casually a few times, but didn't pay attention to what he said. Hui Dengxiang saw this, but Huan Zhen said, "Of course not! After hearing who was instigated, you are suspicious of such a shadowless thing."
Huidenxiang said, "However, why do the commanders of each battalion say that when you give orders, you look like a general. They also said... I am just a puppet general!" Huan Zhen was angry and funny, and sneered, "Is it worth my fight with you? You are the commander of the first army, and you may be a little sensible. Don't ask others to say anything, what do you believe?" Huidenxiang blushed and muttered something. As soon as Huan Zhen said, he felt that his tone was a little heavy, and his heart was slightly Uneasy, he hurriedly said: "Second brother, if you don't believe me, even though you have eliminated the title of military advisor, Huan Zhen was originally a slut, and he was not afraid of becoming nothing." He said these two sentences, and was just a pity that his life experience was purely inspired and had no meaning. He didn't know that although Hui Dengxiang was not smart in his usual mind, he thought too much at this moment, thinking that he was hinting that if he was relieved of his position as military advisor, he would turn against his brother.
Although Hui Dengxiang is a man of a weak ear, he is very generous and kind. He attaches great importance to friendship and brotherly loyalty. He became sworn brotherly and sincerely treated Huan Zhen as his elder brother after he worshipped him. Later, Huan Zhen helped him develop his army, and he was even more grateful to Huan Zhen. In terms of brotherhood, it was so deep. This time, he became suspicious of Huan Zhen, and the situation was also the case. In addition, the three of them became tigers and destroyed their bones. He did not express his doubts about Huan Zhen, but he was very real and immediately regretted it afterwards. He always couldn't be stable as if he was blocked by a big rock in his heart. He was not with Huan Zhen. Who knew that Huan Zhen actually said this, although it was not his original intention, but after Hui Deng's misunderstanding, he thought he was using the love of the charity to threaten him. Even if he was loyal, he couldn't help but get angry, not to mention that he was a thief who was used to being a tyrant business, and he was about to go off immediately.
Huan Zhen saw that his face was wrong, but he didn't expect that his words would misunderstand him. He only said that he still suspected that he had intentionally seized power and could not let go. He thought that the enemy was in front of him, and you still had this leisure to fight with me. In anger, he stopped talking to him. He stood up and looked for Fu Shan and shouted loudly: "Qingzhu! Qingzhu!" Fu Shan was on a small hill not far away and heard his shouting, and immediately ran over. Huan Zhen waited for him to run closer and asked, "There is any news for the explorer?" Fu Shan shook his head, and before he could speak, he saw a man running from afar, running to the three of them, panting, "The government army is heading south!"
It turned out that Chang Rong rushed into Beitai without any obstacles along the way, and he felt something was wrong. When he saw a burning broken wall, he immediately realized that the bandits had fled far away, but he had nowhere to vent his anger. After thinking about it, he asked 5,600 officers and soldiers to take off their pants together, and each of them pulled a shit underground. He had expected that the Heavenly Army would not go east, and since he came from the west, he would not go west; now he divided the troops and left a thousand people to wait on the spot.
, led two thousand people to pursue the north, and the remaining two thousand people to pursue the south. The spy could see clearly and immediately ran back to report. Huan Zhen fell heavily, screaming, but it was a pity that the general was so playful. Even if the enemy camp was empty, he shouldn't have asked the soldiers to take off their pants and shit. He was so careless. If he was about to leave and suddenly attack when the official army's pants were all faded, wouldn't it be a big victory? Unfortunately, a good opportunity slipped through his fingers in vain.
But things have passed, and regret is useless. It is better to grasp the current situation. Since he knew that the two thousand officials were in the north, he now picked up a battalion of soldiers with Fu Shan. They were all strong and flexible. He chose two experienced people to take the general and told them to harass the officials in the north and not to fight with them. As long as the officials chased them, our army retreated. The Ming army was not good at fighting in the mountains, and was not as familiar with the terrain as we were.
As long as they move quickly, they will never be caught up with him. They also ordered them to send people back and forth to contact each other and report their locations. After some instructions, they were asked to lead their troops there. As for the two thousand officials in the south, they were also made according to the same gourd. The thousand people left behind in Beitai must have camped at night, so they sent three more posts to go outside the camp and shouted. But when the officers and soldiers came out, I retreated, and took turns day and night, so that the officials and soldiers could not sleep.
He had finished his assignment and felt a little relieved. He counted on his hands, and there were two battalions and one sermon remaining. He thought that since the official army was chasing north, it would be very troublesome if he found out that he was stationed here. He immediately ordered to set out and march deep into the mountains.
After a day and night, he received several reports. The harassment was very smooth. The official army was frightened at night and could not sleep well. He was listless during the day. Huan Zhen was secretly happy, but he did not show it. Fu Shan was very silent. He still held his map every day, not knowing what he thought about. When he asked him, he was strangely circled around in ancient times, but he refused to say it. During this day and night, Huan Zhen wanted to find an opportunity to have a deep conversation with Huiden several times, but every time he saw him, he always talked about it with a few friends in the past, as if he was deliberately hiding from himself. He could not imagine that he had to stop talking.
Before dawn the next day, Huan Zhen was sleeping soundly, but somehow woke up. Seeing Mr. Zhou and Xuexin waved to him from afar. He had not met the two for a long time, he missed him very much. He ran forward, but he ran faster and faster, but the distance was getting farther and farther. Gradually, the two of them shrank into a small dot and were completely invisible. Huan Zhen was anxious and shouted everywhere, shouting his throat, but he could not see them. When he looked around again, the mountains, rivers, trees, and pedestrians on the roads disappeared for a moment. He was filled with fear and couldn't help but scream, but even the sound he made seemed to have disappeared from the air. He felt his legs were weak, and he could no longer stand steadily, and he sat down to the ground.
Suddenly, a voice came from behind him, calling his name softly, as if it was Xue Xin. Huan Zhen was overjoyed, and jumped up and shouted, "Xue Xin, where are you?" While turning around, he looked at the place where the sound came from. Unexpectedly, when he turned around, he had a face that he had a blurry face. After finally seeing the man clearly, it was Zeng Fang who stretched out his arms, strangled his throat, and tightened it hard. Huan Zhen struggled desperately, gradually breathing, and suddenly screamed, sweating profusely on his body, which was a nightmare.
He sat up panting, feeling his heart pounding. Look at the sky, it was the darkest period before dawn. After a while, he was breathing for a while, and was about to walk again and rest for a while, he suddenly felt a sense of panic for no reason, as if he was trapped in a cage by Zeng Fang in Ximazhuang that day, and he felt like he was trapped in a cage and could not escape.
