West of Quezhou.

The letter from Zhuang Qingyue confirmed the collusion between the Liangzhou garrison and Xu Lin.After Xiao Ling hurriedly marched, he stopped at the foot of the dangerous mountain to the west of Quezhou.

The deputy commander of the forbidden army stepped forward: "My lord, what are your orders?"

"Stop marching, tell the sergeants to rest for a while."

The deputy commander was stunned, and raised his head to judge the color of the sky: "My lord...it's not until noon, can we go on?"

Although he has no chance to actually go to the battlefield, he also knows that the battlefield is changing rapidly, and the more opportunities he seizes, the more chances of winning.

Right now, the morale of the Forbidden Army is high, and it is reasonable to take this opportunity to wipe out the rebels in one go.

Faced with the deputy commander's questioning, Xiao Lingfeng waved his hands indifferently.

"It doesn't matter." He looked at the dangerous peak that went straight into the sky in the distance, and his expression of squinting his eyes was somewhat similar to Zhuang Qingyue's, "After half an hour, this king has other arrangements."

The deputy commander was very keenly aware of the hidden danger in his tone, so he couldn't help but quietly raised his hairs—although he knew that such danger was not aimed at him.

Half an hour later, the Imperial Army finished resting.

The deputy commander's subordinates were about to tell the soldiers to clean up the traces of buried pots and cooking, but they were stopped by the deputy commander with a wave: "Wait, let them not have to clean up too clean."

The subordinates were puzzled.

The deputy commander squinted his eyes following Xiao Lingfeng's movements and said, "Let them bury the place casually, so that it looks..."

Subordinate: "Look?"

The deputy commander pondered for a while, but still couldn't find a suitable description: "It looks like it's been buried, but it's not completely buried."

Under the personal guidance of the vice-commander, the soldiers finally made the temporarily rested place satisfy the vice-commander.

Xiao Lingfeng took a look as he passed by with Wuyun Taxue, and randomly gave the deputy commander a look of approval.

Seeing the eyes full of admiration, the deputy commander's blood surged, he unconsciously puffed out his chest, and then swaggered forward, following Xiao Lingfeng's instructions, ordering the guards to change their course.

Two hours later, the deputy commander was lying on the edge of a dense forest with his head covered in yellow weeds.

This dense forest is close to the dangerous mountain in the west of Quezhou, but it is not the only way to go to Gyeonggi from the west of Quezhou——

Even because few people come over at all, the dense forest is so deep that you can't even see the road.

"Can this work? Can you squat down to get people?" The deputy commander whispered suspiciously, because no matter how he looked at it, the Liangzhou garrison would not pass by such a place where weeds were so dense that they couldn't get down.

Besides... He glanced at the dense forest in front of him.

"No entry into the forest" is a truth that even ordinary people understand.

Beside him, a small weed pile moved, and a joyful voice came from under the grass pile, carrying the undisguised displeasure of the young man: "Your Majesty has always planned out strategies, you just follow the orders of the army. "

The deputy commander was choked by the joy of being a child. Not only was he not angry, but he felt that what he said was quite reasonable.

The Lord of War, Xiao Lingfeng, has never been defeated in the Northwest conquest for so many years. In terms of controlling the battle situation, how can he, a half-hearted person who stays in the imperial capital all the year round, be dissatisfied.

"you're right."

He said something in a low voice, then reached out and touched Xi Le's head, "I'm not as good as my little friend."

The weeds swayed with his movements, making a rustling sound, and soon mixed with the sound of the wind blowing the grass, so that no one could hear the slightest abnormality.

Although Zhuang Qingyue intercepted Liu Qingping's message, in order not to startle the snake, she decided to send the letter out.

So at this moment, the Liangzhou garrison is planning to take the route that is not easy but can avoid Xiao Lingfeng and quickly reach the imperial capital according to the information given by Liu Qingping.

The army passed over the dangerous mountain west of Quezhou without incident, and the commander of the garrison breathed a sigh of relief.

He stopped his horse and looked up into the distance, which was the direction they were about to go.

Because of the barrier of mountains, the climate here is not as cold as Liangzhou, so that even in the season of withering vegetation in winter, the forest in the distance has never completely decayed, even if it is not as lush as summer, even the forest Withered and yellow grass blades inevitably appear on the edge, but it also deserves the title of "dense forest".

The dense forest stood quietly in the distance, and there was no other movement except the sound of the wind.

The commander rubbed the space between his brows, feeling that the road ahead would not be as peaceful as it appeared on the surface.

And at this moment, the scout teams sent to various places to explore the way turned around one after another, bringing the latest news.

"Commander..." The leader of the scout team had joy in his eyes, "We found traces of the Imperial Army on the road to the south, and they really left from there!"

The commander still felt uneasy in his heart, and asked calmly, "How did you find out? Did you see it with your own eyes?"

The scout captain didn't see it with his own eyes. After all, it was Xiao Lingfeng's soldiers. If he got too close, how could he come back alive?

But he believed in his reconnaissance experience and ability, so he firmly reported his analysis and judgment.

"We found traces of the imperial army on the route to the south. They should have rested at noon, and there are traces of burying pots for cooking on the ground. Although they were buried, the methods were clumsy. You can still find the clues when you look closely."

Speaking of this, there was a little disdain in his eyes: "After all, they are veteran soldiers in the imperial city who have never been on the battlefield and seen blood. They can't even clean up the traces of marching."

Although the commander faintly felt that something was wrong, the scout's phrase "Old soldier" reminded him.

Even if Xiao Lingfeng used his soldiers like a god, it has only been less than two days since he took over the imperial army. The imperial army lacks training and training, and it is normal for such omissions to occur. It should not be deceitful on purpose——Thinking of this, he suppressed the anxiety in his heart disturbed.

Seeing that the time was almost up, the commander waved his hand to signal the army to move towards the dense forest.

On the edge of the dense forest, although Xi Le was lying on the ground, her spirit was highly concentrated.Using the camouflage and cover of the haystack, he took out a small bamboo tube specially provided by the shadows and stuck it in front of his eyes, through which he secretly observed the movement in the distance.

A figure gradually appeared in the distance, and through the lens on the bamboo tube, Xi Le could even see the iconic blue armor of the Liangzhou garrison.

"Here we come." He tensed his body and reminded the deputy commander in a low voice.

The deputy commander also became alert, and the two held their breath involuntarily.

As time passed, the Liangzhou garrison was getting closer and closer, so close that even the deputy commander lying in ambush could see the stretching blue army without using a small bamboo tube.

Before the Liangzhou garrison came to the dense forest.

The commander of the garrison slowed down, and the uneasiness that had been suppressed earlier surged up again, even more intense than before.

The sky is getting darker and darker, but the dense forest is quiet, like a beast with a huge mouth in the night, just waiting to devour the Liangzhou garrison without leaving any bones.

The deputy commander of the garrison also noticed the hesitation of his own commander.He didn't know the danger of bringing a large army into the forest in the evening, but if it was delayed until nightfall, the danger would only increase.

After hesitating for a while, he urged his horse to approach the commander of the garrison: "Commander, it will be dark if you don't pass the forest."

"We have already avoided the forbidden army, so we should be fine." He persuaded in a low voice, "If it is later, it will not only be more dangerous, but also delay time. At this time, the great cause of the commander-in-chief cannot be ruined by us."

The commander of the garrison changed his expression slightly, and was finally persuaded by him.

"Go at full speed and pass as fast as you can!"

Seeing the Liangzhou garrison speeding up again, the deputy commander and Xi Le, who were squatting on the edge of the dense forest as outposts, breathed a sigh of relief.

Xi Le stared intently at the movement of the Liangzhou garrison, and her hand holding the whistle was already wet with sweat.

When the last small group of defenders stepped into the dense forest, Xi Le immediately put the whistle to her mouth and blew it violently.

The whistle was sharp and piercing, and it seemed unusually abrupt in the dense forest where only the sound of horseshoes could be heard.

Almost instantly, the commander of the Liangzhou garrison knew that he had been ambushed.

"There is an ambush! Withdraw! Quickly withdraw!" He shouted and ordered, trying to retreat quickly before the ambushing imperial army attacked.

However, he ignored that the whistle was not a reminder to retreat, but a signal to attack.

The moment the garrison commander's voice fell, there was a loud cry of killing in the forest.

Following this movement, the imperial guards in black appeared. Rows of archers had already formed their formations, and the rain of arrows woven into an airtight net bag under the hood, easily crushing the Liangzhou garrison. Take it all in!

The cavalry couldn't use it in the dense forest, and was completely caught off guard by the rain of arrows, and stumbled into Luancheng.

But after all, it was once a well-trained regular army.Soon, the rebels erected their shields, gradually resisting the bows and arrows shot from all sides.

Behind the archers came the Forbidden Army armed with long knives and preparing to surround them. The rebel leader looked around the Forbidden Army, but did not find Xiao Lingfeng.

He stared in amazement at the leading general he had never seen before, and gave a loud drink to strengthen his momentum.

"Where is Xiao Lingfeng! Do you dare to ambush me here, and dare not come out to challenge me?"

The general was the deputy commander's subordinate, as if he had never experienced this kind of confrontation between the two armies, he immediately panicked after being yelled at by him, and looked up at a certain treetop to the east.

This glance did not escape the eyes of the rebel leader.

He sneered, and shouted at the Liangzhou garrison behind him: "Break out to the west!"

From the moment he saw the look in the eyes of the general of the forbidden army, he was certain that Xiao Lingfeng was hiding in the east and waiting to strangle them to death. That place must have the most sufficient troops. place breakout.

But he didn't notice that the general looked flustered, but his eyes were extremely calm.

What he didn't even realize was that those shadowy forbidden soldiers who seemed to rush forward to fight with them didn't actually rush forward.
