Great Tang Southern Emperor

"Hou Junji is here..." Just when everyone thought they were safe, there was a sudden shrill cry, and then everyone heard the deafening thunder - but those who are familiar with the military knew very well that That was not thunder at all, but the sound of thousands of horses trampling the ground.

And only Hou Junji's cavalry could make such a commotion on such an occasion.

"Everyone, run." There was no need for the Tarantula to instruct what to do next, and Chu Yannian understood his meaning without a teacher. The chase came, and of course this group of tired teachers would run away. If Hou Junji was still wandering around calmly at this time, even if Hou Junji was a fool, he would know that there was a trap ahead.

"Run, Hou Junji is coming after you."

"Help, who will help me?"

"Don't kill me, I didn't do anything."

"Everyone, don't be in a hurry, don't be messy, td who pushed me?"

"..."

In fact, there was no need for Chu Yannian to remind them, the originally scattershot crowd had already started running quickly at this time, everything Hou Junji had done in Rili City had already made everyone understand his nature, not to mention that he and others had killed him out of the city, Huge loss of face for Hou Junji, Hou Junji must have been burning with anger, at this time, falling into his hands would definitely be a dead end.

"Hey, after all, they are people who have never seen the world." Tarantula looked at the panicked people, then at the orderly soldiers, and sighed in his heart: "Trained people are different from untrained people. .”

"..."

Chu Yannian next to him secretly rolled his eyes and said nothing, but said in his heart: Are you talking nonsense?If the common people can be like soldiers, why does the court spend so much money training soldiers every year?Wouldn't it be over to recruit people directly?And don't even think about it, this group of people just survived the massacre, and it was the time when they were most frightened, and now Hou Junji is chasing after them, it's good that they didn't blow up their nests immediately, what else do you want them to do? ?

But I want to think about it, but he is not slow at hand, and quickly ordered his subordinates to help maintain order, and despite the loud sound of horseshoes, they are actually far away from him, not to mention that he is in the jungle now, and Hou Junji's iron cavalry No matter how powerful he was, he had to get off his horse when he entered the jungle, so there was no need for him to be so flustered, all he needed to do was make a running gesture.

Chapter 962: The plan has begun... ([-] words)

Chapter 321 The Plan, Started... ([-] words)

During the run, Chu Yannian asked a question that he had been wondering since Hou Junji's cavalry appeared: "Speaking of which, my lord, since you have the ability to make Hou Junji drunk for two hours, why don't you take all his horses?" How about killing it? This way we can also have a good rest."

Tarantula rolled his eyes: "Aren't you talking nonsense? We're playing the role of defectors. Can you kill Hou Junji's horse at the same time as you are alone?"

"Yes, the last general didn't think of this." Chu Yannian touched his head and said a little embarrassedly, but he made a decision in his heart. Even if there are questions in the future, he can't ask these cultural people anymore, and discuss things with them. I seem to be mentally handicapped, just asking some low IQ questions is too low my IQ.

"Okay..." The tarantula that was running stopped suddenly: "Let everyone stop, we are already safe."

"Ah? Stop? It's less than ten miles away, right?" Chu Yannian looked at the mountain in the distance, which was two or three miles away from him. Why did he suddenly say it was safe?

"Don't worry about it, anyway, we don't have to keep running, just walk slowly." The tarantula didn't explain, it's too troublesome to explain this kind of thing, not to mention that it's a suspicion of them after all, if you say it Chu Yannian is likely to be angry—Hou Junji has been operating in Nanyang for many years. Although he has lost popular support recently, it is impossible for Chu Yannian to have no loyal Hou Junji under his command. Therefore, in order to prevent Hou Junji’s loyalists from The news got out, which is why Tarantula told a fake data, so that even if Hou Junji really got the information that there was an ambush ahead, unless he went back immediately, he would eventually be fooled.

As for whether Hou Junji will stop or even return after knowing the trap...

That's even more impossible. Hou Junji is a proud person. Being betrayed by his subordinates must have made him furious. Today, his face has been completely lost, and he is full of anger. People are all torn apart, so who cares about traps or not?And he felt that he already knew there was a trap, as long as he walked carefully, it was impossible to fall into the trap.

What's more, if he retreated because there was a trap ahead, not only would he be unable to vent his anger, but the natives who followed him would also look down on him.

Therefore, both public and private, Hou Junji had to chase after him, and he couldn't send anyone. He had to lead the team to hunt down and kill him. Only in this way could he regain his prestige—and all of this was Xue Rengui's plan. Among them, as long as he dared to bring people in, he would definitely die.

"Okay, let's stop." After walking for more than a mile, everyone found an open space. The moment they saw the open space, some smart people understood what the so-called response of the tarantula was— ——This blank area is not formed naturally, but was cut out by people. The width is more than a mile wide, and the length is beyond the edge. The overall shape seems to be a wide road. Combined with this dense jungle, anyone with a little brain can understand what this means... This is clearly a jungle fire barrier.

The people who guessed all this were naturally rejoiced. Hou Junji condoned the aborigines to massacre the Han people, not to mention that they were almost in the wrong hands, but that many of the massacred people were relatives and friends of the survivors. Friends—this is also normal. After all, when the immigration policy is implemented, the whole village is basically relocated. Even if it is finally relocated to another place, the familiar people will almost all live together. This is the case in Rili City Case.

Now that Hou Junji acquiesces in the massacre of Rili City by the natives, if it weren't for the help of an army that can't see through it, the people in the entire Rili City might not survive. The important thing is that many of their relatives and friends died at the hands of the natives. Naturally, they hated Hou Junji and the natives deeply, but they had no strength to take revenge.

Well now, someone has avenged himself. Although it is not clear what the other party is, there is no doubt that the people at this time are already grateful to this benefactor who is still hidden in the dark.

The common people were grateful, but Hou Junji's secret agents hidden in the crowd were going crazy - the enemy was so cunning, they actually gave him a false news, what should we do?

Do you want to report the new information to the general?But the problem is that it is already too late even if he wants to report the news, not to mention that he and others have passed the fake news to Hou Junji, how would he understand it if he changed rashly at this time, and with so many people watching, can he understand? Escaping is a problem, and more importantly, the sound of horseshoes in the distance has disappeared, which shows that Hou Junji may have led the team into the jungle, which means that he may have fallen into the shadow of the man in the dark. Trap, even if I really spread the news at this time, I am afraid that he will not have time to retreat.

The guesses from the spies were correct, Hou Junji had indeed entered the jungle at this time.

Looking at the dark clouds above his head, Li Siqian, who was following him, always felt uneasy: "General, there is a cloud in the art of war, and you should not enter the forest. There may be enemy ambushes in the forest. We are Shouldn't you explore the jungle first before making any plans?"

"What are you afraid of? I have already seen through the enemy's plot, so there is nothing to worry about." Although others do not recognize his position, Hou Junji cares about this title very much. Whenever he mentions himself, he will replace him with me.

"But the news sent back by the elaboration may not be true." Of course, Li Siqian knew what Hou Junji's so-called enemy's conspiracy was. To be precise, Hou Junji did not understand the enemy's conspiracy, but guessed the enemy. A place to lay traps.

Hou Junji stopped suddenly, and looked at Li Siqian coldly: "Li Siqian, don't you have something to hide from me?"

"Of course not, there is no doubt about it." Li Siqian immediately denied it, even if he had him, it would be impossible to admit it. This is not the time to talk nonsense, otherwise, even if he and Hou Junji are acquaintances, he will definitely turn his face immediately and say Maybe he will kill himself——I am a frail scholar, and I can play tricks, but I am not a match for these reckless men.

"Could it be that your people didn't entangle the young army?" Speaking of the young army, Hou Junji's eyes flashed with fear. At this moment, looking at the whole of Nanyang, if you want to say that you can really pose a threat to yourself , there is only the Boys Army, but now the Boys Army is dragged a hundred miles away by Cheng Jianxi like his life, wait for his own side to prepare, and then have a good arm wrestling with the Boys—it doesn’t matter whether you win or lose, as long as you win The north and south gates are closed, even if you are defeated, you can retreat to Nanyang, but the youth army can't even think about attacking.

"The Boys' Army is still a hundred miles away, and we're holding us back." Speaking of the Boys' Army, Li Siqian's eyes flashed with pain—you must know that Cheng Jianxi paid a huge price to hold the Boys' Army back. The dead people alone are enough to make their hearts hurt for a long time.

"Since this is not the case, could it be that the Tang Dynasty has entered Nanyang again?" Hou Junji asked again.

"This is even more impossible. Now almost all the troops in the South of the Tang Dynasty have been dragged down, and they cannot support Nanyang at all." Li Siqian denied it again, and he can guarantee this. There is no doubt about the delay in the major battlefields—what's more, even if there are troops entering Nanyang, Cheng Jianxi's intelligence capabilities can detect such a large military transfer in the first place.

"Since the Boys' Army is still hundreds of miles away, and no troops from the Tang Dynasty have entered Nanyang, then tell me... where did the enemy's ambush come from?"

"This..." Hou Junji's rhetorical question made Li Siqian speechless, thought for a while and said, "Although I don't know what the other party's conspiracy is, but..."

"No but." Hou Junji waved his whip confidently, pointing to the depths of the jungle: "Even if there is an enemy trying to ambush us at this time, it can only be a small army. Can't the troops eat it?"

"..." Li Siqian was speechless, but he couldn't help complaining in his heart - how about the combat power of the army in your hand, don't you have any clues in your own mind?In addition to the [-] personal guards and [-] cavalry in your hands, what kind of goods are the remaining [-] natives? Haven't you seen clearly after today's incident?

This is a full 10 people, and even more than 1 rebels can't stop it-and these 1 rebels are still surrounded in the city, and there are still more people guarding them, so it's like this Can make people break out, what can this native do?It's no wonder that Li Zhen looks down on the natives here, even the price of slaves is lower than elsewhere - where does your confidence in them come from?

"Your Majesty's army is naturally brave, ordinary people are by no means opponents, but as the saying goes, water and fire are ruthless..." Although he looked down on Hou Junji very much in his heart, Li Siqian still held his nose and admitted Hou Junji in order to inherit Jianxi's great cause He said, and expressed his worries: "If the enemy uses fire to attack, your majesty...but you are in the forest."

"Hahaha..." Unexpectedly, as soon as Li Siqian's words fell, Hou Junji looked up to the sky and laughed, as if he had heard something delicious.

Hou Junji's sudden laughter actually confused Li Siqian, and he quickly asked, "Why is your majesty laughing so loudly? Could it be that my student is not right?"

"Hahaha... what I'm laughing at is that you, Li Siqian, were stupid for a while...hahaha..." Hou Junji couldn't stop laughing—I was suppressed by this kid in terms of IQ for so long, and today I can finally It's a good revenge.

Seeing Li Si showing displeasure in front of him, Hou Junji stopped laughing and said: "Li Siqian, don't be convinced when I say you are confused for a while, where is this? It's Nanyang! What time is it? It's the rainy season! Sunny City There was a heavy rain just yesterday, and the surrounding forest including this forest was completely watered, tell me, in the forest that has just rained, how on earth should our enemies light the fire?"

Li Siqian was a little dissatisfied and said: "It doesn't mean that you can't start a fire when it rains, at least you can use kerosene..."

"Indeed, kerosene can be used to light a fire on a rainy day, but don't forget...the smell of kerosene is very strong, but we've been walking for so long, what about the smell?"

"..." Li Siqian was speechless, he really didn't think of this.

But Hou Junji rarely got the upper hand in his words, and he obviously didn't want to let him go: "Also, we have tens of thousands of people, even if we are divided into several groups, we still occupy a full radius of dozens of people. If a small group of troops wants to set fire to burn us all to death, how much kerosene will they have to prepare? How long will they have to prepare to burn us all to death? But as far as I know, Chu Yannian's rebellion is only a matter of today, right? Could it be that they could have predicted in advance that we would massacre the city, and then made arrangements in advance?"

"Your Majesty's words are reasonable, it's because the student is being rude." Li Siqian was convinced by what he said, although he still felt a faint uneasiness in his heart, but Hou Junji had already said everything to this point, so he had nothing to say. That's it, otherwise Hou Junji will be really angered.

"Don't worry, even if there are traps, with our number, there will never be any problems." Hou Junji saw Li Siqian's doubts, and smiled lightly. These scholars are good at everything else, except that they are too cautious. , I don’t know why there is no reason not to take risks when marching and fighting?If it is really possible to dominate everything by calculation, then why use the lives of the soldiers to fight?Let the generals of the two sides compare each other before the battle to see whose plan is more perfect, and whoever has the more perfect plan will win... Isn't this the end?Why go to war?It is a waste of time and money.

"Student understands..."

The army continued to advance. At the beginning, Hou Junji advanced with a relaxed attitude, but soon, he also noticed that something was wrong...

After all, he is a veteran with many years of experience in the battlefield. He has trained a super sixth sense on the battlefield, allowing him to detect danger in advance.
