Chapter 589 Launching a General Offensive

Chapter 589 Launching a General Offensive

A quarter of an hour later, Qin Sheng led all the young men from Baihu Village down the mountain to join the Jintai Army.

Baihu Village is mostly populated by Donghai locals or people from surrounding areas. These bandits, who are familiar with the terrain, serve as guides, leading the team east and west toward Chu County.

When they were hungry, they would eat some of Pingzhou's special military rations, and when they were tired, they would catch up on news.

During the first break, Qin Sheng held a small meeting with the generals of Jintai Army and several leaders of Baihu Village to get to know each other.

Before that, Qin Sheng quietly communicated with Wen Hu.

"Captain, I want to tell you something."

"You said."

"Because this time our brothers from Baihu Village went to Juzhang to successfully rescue the people, and because I have some connections in Pingzhou, Pingzhou gave it some thought and decided to arrange for me to be the leader of this team temporarily. Jintai Army There are people in charge over there, but you are still in charge of our Baihu Village. It’s just that during the operation, the Baihu Village must obey military orders, can you do that?"

"Don't worry!" Wen Hu was not unconvinced about Qin Sheng becoming the leader of the entire team.

The deputy head of the village secretly told him that the fourth master might have some connections with Hepingzhou. And he is still the head of Baihu Village, but he also needs to listen to instructions and obey military orders.

When the two returned to the team, the big guys took the military rations and ate with gusto.

"Don't tell me, this stuff is quite delicious, sweet and delicate."

There was a young man of fifteen or sixteen years old who cherished the military rations in his hands. When he saw Wen Hu and Qin Sheng, he couldn't help but said, "Master Si, it would be great if the food in Chu County were all fine grains like this." He only ate one piece. , drink some more water, and feel full in your stomach.

In this era of scarcity of supplies, many people may not be able to take a bite of candy in their entire lives.

The people next to him laughed at him when he heard this, "Why did you make such an unrealistic wish for the Fourth Master?"

They just learned from their brothers in the Jintai Army that this was specially made military rations for their emergency march.

"Don't worry, as far as I know, the food in Chuzhou is not bad." Qin Sheng gave them reassurance.

"Then hurry up and set off, I can't wait." Someone urged. They all knew that there were currently three teams heading towards Chu County at the same time. It was unclear what the benefits of the first team arriving were, but it was better to arrive first than last. To good.

One day later, the Jintai Army successfully arrived in Chu County and arrived at the designated place.

This is a dry rocky bed.

Everyone looked at each other, where is the food and grass? Where is the food and grass promised to them?

Qin Sheng found the special mark, "This is it."

After Qin Sheng walked around, he pointed out three places.

Everyone suddenly realized that the food was buried underground?

"Choose a spot and start digging."

"Dig here, this mark has the largest range!"

Once you have chosen a location, go to work.

"We were the first to arrive, right?"

"Hehe, it looks like it should be."

As soon as the cellar was dug, Qin Sheng's people checked whether the grain was damaged. After confirming that it was not bad, they probably started drooling just looking at the grain in the cellar.

"Get rich, get rich."

" Transport away, transport them all away!"

In addition to food, there are also some detachable wooden carts thoughtfully placed in the cellar.

After they took out the grain, they decided to erect huge rocks and block the cellar door without filling it with soil.

Before leaving, they placed a piece of cloth with writing on it under the boulder. The cloth said: The food has been taken, and the first one is indeed a big portion. Now there is no need to go hungry.

……

The Sun Army led by Sun Congyi arrived at the designated supply point on the evening of the next day.

During this march, they experienced the benefits of carrying an engineer battalion with the army. Although it was not as exaggerated as "opening roads over mountains and building bridges when encountering water", the journey was incredibly smooth.

In addition, the special military rations are delicious and most importantly, they are easy to carry.

They thought they were the first. After all, they were traveling non-stop all the way.

But when they arrived, they found that there was a place that looked like it had been dug up violently, and a huge boulder was blocked there, like a door.

Sun Congyi and Muye quickly stepped forward to take a look and found the cloth pressed under the boulder. When they pulled it out, they found that it was the message from Qin Sheng's team.

"It's okay, it's not bad if we arrive second." Sun Congyi was also comforting himself when talking to Muye.

At this time, a school captain came over and said, "General, General Yue and the others have also been here and have already taken away the second portion of food and grass."

It's just that they kept a low profile, not as arrogant as General Qin Sheng's team, and they just left messages.

Sun Congyi and Muye, look at me and I look at you, okay, is this Pingzhou speed?

When they took out the grain from the third cellar, Sun Congyi found that the amount was just right. Well, it was actually a little less. Compared with the first one, it was about seven to ten full.

"General Qin Liu led the Jintai army to the south."

"General Yue led the team to the north."

Sun Congyi and Muye understood, and they gave the Sun family army the nearest defense point. After joining Pingzhou, they truly felt that all their efforts were moving in the same direction.

Sun Congyi waved his hand, "Let's go, we have to perform well next, and we can't lose the reputation of our Sun family army!"

……

For the bandits in Baihu Village, after taking the food, the Fourth Master will take them to achieve military merit. Once they have achieved military merit, their Baihu Village will also have a certificate of merit.

"We need to get to Wanling as soon as possible without alerting others."

Wen Hu and others expressed their understanding, "That means our actions need to be as secretive as possible."

"Captain of the Village, Fourth Master, I know there is a shortcut, but it is difficult for us to carry so much food and grass. But if we can take a shortcut, we can avoid a long detour."

"Go and see."

Two hours later, Qin Sheng and others raised their heads and looked at the obstacle in front of them.

A small, slippery mountain peak is embedded between the two mountains.

Take it hard, it's sad.

Please take a detour, please.

Wenhu, Chen Jinlong and others were in trouble and took a detour, which was time consuming, but without a detour, it would not be easy to get there with food.

Qin Sheng said nothing.

At this time, Lu Mingzhi found his second brother-in-law and whispered.

Not long after, Qin Sheng asked everyone to find a relatively distant large cave to rest.

The cave was quite big. They piled food and grass inside, and people rested near the entrance of the cave.

Everyone was so crowded that they couldn't straighten their legs, so they stayed for free.

It's night, spring thunder rustles, spring thunder roars.

In the middle of the night, there were several huge thunderous roars, accompanied by a flash of lightning that lit up the sky.

Wen Hu was awakened.

"This thunder scares everyone to death."

"I feel like our cave is shaking. Is it an illusion?"

"Don't sleep yet. Be alert. If something goes wrong, we'll rush out!"

Fortunately, the thunder subsided in the second half of the night. The members of the team narrowed their eyes again one after another. At this time, several people wearing raincoats walked back into the cave from the outside.

Early the next morning, the sky cleared up.

A scout came back to report, "Sixth Master, Master, the slippery hill in front of us has been struck by lightning! We can get over it!"

Hearing this, many people hurriedly ran to see that the small mountain peak was really struck by lightning and was even chopped into pieces. And they only need to clean up the sand, gravel and mud a little, and then they can pass.

Wen Hu: ...They are very lucky this time, right?

Lu Mingzhi and Zhu Dazhuang looked at each other, hiding their merit and fame. Thanks to the spring thunder last night, they were able to cover up some movements.

Kuaiji, Qiantang

The generals are reporting the current battle situation to Xie Zhan.

"In the capital of Dadu, on the sea, the Cao Gang are constantly trying to break out."

Xie Zhan nodded, Pingzhou must also be anxious.

During this period, with the efforts of the soldiers, King Jin's troops were continuously eliminated by them, and now they were just short of the final blow.

The emperor had issued three imperial edicts in succession, ordering him to divide his troops and march north, but he had withstood these pressures.

Xie Zhan went through the entire situation in detail and found that nothing was missing. Everything was proceeding in the direction he had preset.

So he ordered, "Notify all armies to have a good rest tonight, eat well, and launch a general attack early tomorrow morning!"

"As ordered!"

King Jin's Mansion

The tide is gone.

King Jin looked dejected.

Bai Xingzhi comforted him, "Your Majesty, you used a state and four counties to fight against the imperial court. You used 50,000 soldiers and horses to fight against 150,000 soldiers and horses. Even though you were defeated, it was an honor."

At this time, the guard came to report, "Your Majesty, Guo Chong wishes to see you."

Bai Xingzhi was surprised, why did he come at this time?

"See you, no see." King Jin stopped.

"My lord, let's meet and see what the other party has to say." Bai Xingzhi advised. If you meet him, you won't lose anything, right?

People are about to die, and they are upset. At this moment, King Jin just wanted to wait quietly for death and didn't want others to bother him.

He felt like a dying old man, exuding the aura of death.

In the eyes of King Jin, the people from Pingzhou who came to bother him were like crows that came by smell, guarding him waiting for meat!

Later, King Jin found out that he was wrong. Pingzhou is not a crow, but a Bodhisattva who saves the suffering!
