The genius shone brightly, and Yang Qing received news that Li Qiucheng led hundreds of cavalry to suddenly appear in Ningxiang and were plundering them.

There are three townships in the southern part of Anshang County, namely Ningxiang, Dingxiang and Hexiang from west to east. Among them, Dingxiang has the most prosperous households and the largest population, followed by Ningxiang.

Now that Ningxiang was in urgent need, Yang Qing did not dare to neglect, so he immediately raised troops and ordered Liu Yin and Lu Shun to send two tuns of soldiers and horses and Feng Chong's cavalry, a total of more than 600 people, to rescue him.

"Master Fu, it seems that Li Jiucheng has learned his lesson wisely. Knowing that my army has arrived, he stopped dividing his troops and gathered his troops to attack." Huo Jian waited for the generals to leave and then stepped forward to report.

Yang Qing smiled and said: "Shu Zhi hit the nail on the head. He could see Li Qiucheng's intention at a glance. This thief knows that my army is coming from the south and is at its peak. Naturally, he does not dare to divide his troops to fight again."

"Hmph, although this guy is smart and vigilant, he doesn't know how to gather his troops, which just gives our army the opportunity to gather and annihilate them. I will never let go of this good opportunity. As long as Feng Chong and the others bite the Yi soldiers, I will

If we use the follow-up troops to attack, we will surely gain full success." Yang Qing said with disdain.

Seeing that Yang Qing was so arrogant, Huo Jian felt secretly happy. He still smiled and said, "What Fu Jun said is true. Once Fu Jun comes in person, the barbarian soldiers will become enemies."

"Haha, I have given you too much credit. I have given you full authority over the military and political orders. Please handle them carefully."

Huo Jian cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Fu, Jian will work hard for it."

"Shu Qi, what do you think of my performance just now?" After Huo Jian left, Yang Qing asked Wu Que, who was standing by, with a smile.

Wu Que also smiled and replied: "The prince looked so confident just now, my subordinates almost wanted to believe it."

Yang Qing stood up, waved his hands and said with a smile: "Haha, some small plans are not worth mentioning. I'm afraid that Feng Chong's fight against them will be in vain."

As expected by Yang Qing, as soon as Feng Chong led his army to Ningxiang, the scouts reported that the barbarians had retreated and they did not know where they had fled. Feng Chong had no choice but to leave two groups of infantry to guard the area after appeasing the people.

, led the remaining troops and horses back.

Yang Qing didn't say much after hearing the report. He encouraged Feng Chong a few words and asked him to lead his troops back to the camp to rest.

One day later, the scouts reported that the Yi cavalry appeared in Hexiang again. Yang Qing was furious when he heard this, ignored Huo Jian's efforts to dissuade him, and went to rescue the army. However, before the army entered Hexiang, he had to retaliate again.

Li Qiucheng has led his troops back to Xindao County.

Yang Qing had no choice but to lead his troops back to the Dingxiang camp.

In the next few days, relying on the rapid maneuverability of the cavalry, the Yi people appeared in Ningxiang and then in Dingxiang. In short, they entered and exited the three townships at will. Whenever the government troops came to rescue, the Yi soldiers would retreat in time.

, making it impossible for the officers and soldiers to rescue them.

After a few days, the south of Anshang was disrupted by the barbarian soldiers, but Yang Qing's army was always unable to rescue them. The barbarians dragged them to the point where they were exhausted, and the soldiers under his command were full of complaints.

On this day, Yang Qing saw that he could not remain passive like this, so he sent an order to raise his tent and gather the generals to discuss strategies to defeat the enemy. Everyone had already said something, and after a few words, they all agreed that it was necessary to find out the nest of the barbarian soldiers.

"Master Fu, it is not the best policy for our army to go around fighting fires like this. We have to find out where the barbarians are hiding, and then send the army to attack with thunderous force, and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop. That is the best policy." Huo Jian said sincerely.

After hearing this, everyone in the tent thought that what Huo Jian said was the truth, and they all expressed that they had to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop.

"Master Fu, what Huo Bingcao said is true. The Yi cavalry is coming and going erratically. Most of our troops are infantry and cannot catch up. It is better to send more scouts to Xindao County to find out where the Yi soldiers' lair is.

." Liu Yin said.

Yang Qing nodded and said: "What you all said is reasonable, but there are many dense forests in the valleys in Xindao County, and it will be difficult for the scouts to find out in a few days. We still have to wait for the opportunity."

"Let's do this, Liu Yin and Lu Shun, each of you will lead the troops and horses of the four villages to Ningxiang and garrison in Hexiang. The rest of the soldiers will be left in Dingxiang under the personal command of your own officers. Let's first make sure that all three townships are guarded by soldiers and horses.

In the local area, we just need to wait for the scouts to find out the barbarians' lair, and then join forces to attack them."

"Huo Bingcao, after you go down, you will also send more scouts to the Xindao territory to investigate, and report back immediately as soon as there is news."

"No." Liu Yin and the others saluted.

"Haha, I originally thought that Yang Qing was a man of great talent, but I never expected that he would be played around with by someone." Li Qiucheng smiled and said to Li Changtai in the handsome tent in the valley.

"The general is absolutely right. Yang Qingzhi is a man of great talent and a false reputation. We only tried to devise a small plan, and this man was at a loss." Li Changtai echoed: "According to what Huo Jian said, this man has become angry from shame.

I can’t wait to find our army’s camp, gather together and annihilate it.”

"Yes." Li Qiucheng wiped the long knife in his hand and nodded: "That's very good. It means that this person is already in chaos and will fall into the trap of our army soon."

"It seems that the time is ripe to close the net. Please contact Huo Jian quickly and ask him to proceed with the next plan." Li Qiucheng sheathed his sword and gave another instruction.

"Yes. I will meet with Huo Jian tonight, and then I can let him make the final plan." Li Changtai said: "I just don't know how prepared the king is?"

Li Qiucheng put the knife on the stand, walked to the main seat and sat down: "Don't worry about this, everything is ready on the king's side, just waiting for Yang Qing to fall into the trap."

"In this case, I can rest assured. I expect that Huo Jian will work harder to cooperate with us." Li Changtai murmured.

The camp outside Dingjia Village has become increasingly dense. Not only are there two sets of antlers, but two arrow towers have also been built. It can be said that the defense is well-defended and it is impregnable.

These days, the people in the village also know that the army has strict discipline and do not dare to run around in the camp. Only ignorant children sometimes look out of the camp out of curiosity. The sentry in front of the camp sees that they are children and just makes a sound.

He scolded him a few times.

However, according to military rules, if an adult visits him outside the camp, he will be captured and questioned.

It was a night with a bright moon and stars. Yang Qing personally led a team to inspect the camp. Seeing that the sentries everywhere were well prepared and did not dare to slack off, he couldn't help but be secretly happy.

In order to train these three thousand county soldiers into a strong army, he has worked hard these days.

They used Chengdu's elite Chinese army as the backbone, opened martial arts halls and literacy halls, and used martial arts competitions to inspire military morale... After all these measures, although the county soldiers had not experienced a major war, they

In terms of strict military discipline, they have done a great job.

Of course, this is also the result of Liu Yin and others' ability to manage the army. Not to mention famous generals such as Liu Yin and Zhang Yi who have been proven in history, there are also rookies like Lu Shun and Feng Chong who have been pulled out of the army. They are also very capable. After studying at the Martial Arts Hall, it became clear that there was a possibility to go further.

Therefore, the camp outside Dingjia Village was set up very firmly, and Yang Qing felt very satisfied after inspecting it for several times.

He originally wanted to chat with the ordinary soldiers for a few more words to deepen his image of loving soldiers as sons and being kind to others, but he saw Wu Que coming over and winking at him.
