Transmigration begins with archery training

If this battle was made up by a storyteller...

Then this storyteller will definitely be cursed to death, pelted with rotten eggs and vegetable leaves, and accused of making up stories!

But rather.

The story of crossing Hongze four times is true!

After this battle.

That young man's name will surely resound throughout the world!

From then on, everyone knew about it!

How could Dong An withstand such a heavy blow?

Secondly, it is naturally the celestial book.

Unlike Liang Jinian's rebellion, which was for the purpose of seizing power, Dong An's rebellion was purely for the sake of the Heavenly Book.

Now that the Heavenly Book is in Chen Sanshi's hands, there's no way he can get it back.

For Dong An, this battle naturally lost its meaning.

With these two factors combined, how could one not commit suicide?

His life is not important, but the entire Great Qi will suffer because of it!

"Bastard thing!"

Zhong Wuxin kept cursing, "If I had known, I wouldn't have needed the 'catching a turtle in a jar' strategy!"

original.

The Great Qi army was prepared to march directly into Mingzhou and confront the Sheng Dynasty's forces head-on.

It was a joint strategy devised by Liang Jinian and Dong An.

They said they had a way to first devour the 40,000 troops of the Great Sheng Dynasty, plus a bunch of innate martial saints, to directly seize the "Great Power," and then, taking advantage of Sun Xiangzong's absence, crush Liangzhou and Great Sheng in one fell swoop.

result……

It's not a case of catching a turtle in a jar; it's clearly reaping what you sow, a complete case of shooting yourself in the foot!

If I had known this would happen, I would have just started a war. Even if the cost was higher, I would still have had a 50% chance of winning!

Now, not a single one remains!

"My lord, I haven't finished speaking yet."

The soldier continued, "Dong An's deputy general, Li Tiancheng, and his men seem to be moving closer to us. They say they don't know what to do after losing their commander and hope to merge with us before making any further plans."

"not good!"

Zhong Wuxin immediately realized: "They're not here to join forces, they've betrayed us and are going to attack us from both sides with Lü Ji! Quick, retreat! Don't leave a single person behind! The entire army must retreat tonight and go straight back to the west of the Great Wall!"

"Isn't that..."

Several lieutenants who had been listening nearby asked, "Are we not fighting anymore?"

"What are you talking about!"

Zhong Wuxin angrily said, "Dong An still has a chance if he lives, but if he and Liang Jinian die together, the 'general trend' will be completely ruined. If we continue fighting, we will definitely be defeated. We can't afford to retreat too slowly, hurry up!"

"withdraw--"

……

The Xuanwu Camp is a large military camp.

"Boss!"

"good news!"

"Great news!"

Nie Yuan burst into the tent with an excited expression, holding a secret letter in his hand.

"Third brother, why are you becoming more and more unreliable?"

Lu Ji had just put on his armor and picked up his enormous halberd: "What good news could there be? Is Dong An dead?"

"Yes! Dong An is dead!"

Nie Yuan slammed the secret letter on the table: "Li Tiancheng and others have sent a letter claiming that they have agreed to make amends for their past mistakes and are advancing at full speed towards Jianmen Gorge, preparing to attack us from both sides and wipe out the Western Qi Kingdom in one fell swoop!"

"really?!"

Lu Ji hurriedly asked, "How did Dong An die? Did Li Tiancheng and the others assassinate him together?"

"Do not."

Nie Yuan said, slowly and deliberately, "He was literally angered to death by his junior brother."

"..."

Lü Ji remained silent.

From that moment on, he knew.

What kind of person will be added to the Eight Great Camps?

"Report!"

"Commander Lü!"

"The scouts have reported that half a day ago, the main force of Zhong Wuxin's army began to withdraw from Jianmen Gorge!"

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's chase them!"

Lu Ji did not lose his composure under the enormous change: "Three thousand elite troops will follow me in the lead to charge and pursue, while the rest will split into two groups, left and right, to prevent Li Tiancheng and his men from feigning surrender!"

"Beat the drums, advance!"

……

Outside Yangchun Prefecture, in the wilderness.

After killing more than thirty pursuers with his bare hands, Sha Wenlong continued his exile with Cao Fan. It was at this time that Hai Dongqing returned with intelligence from Jianmen Gorge.

"General Lü said that Jianmen Gorge has been breached, and told us to keep moving forward!"

"General Lü is indeed incredibly brave..."

Cao Fan exclaimed, "The Jianmen Gorge is easy to defend but difficult to attack, yet it was managed to be breached in such a short time..."

"but……"

Sha Wenlong's expression was uncertain: "It wasn't General Lü who took it, but the Western Qi Kingdom withdrew on its own initiative because... because after Chen Sanshi crossed the Hongze River four times, he went straight to Meishan Prefecture to kill the Liang traitor, and then he angered Dong An to death."

"What did you say?!"

Upon hearing this, Cao Fan's injuries seemed to heal instantly, and he suddenly jumped up from the ground: "General Sha, you're not mistaken, this isn't false intelligence from the enemy?"

"Your Highness, it is indeed true."

Sha Wenlong sighed deeply: "Take a look for yourself."

"How did he do that?!"

Cao Fan's hands trembled uncontrollably, his eyes were bloodshot, and he spoke incoherently: "The results of the four crossings directly... led to the retreat of the entire Western Qi army. In other words... this Mingzhou campaign was equivalent to Chen Sanshi quelling the rebellion with only three thousand men!"

"One man can govern an entire state!"

"This is not just a meritorious deed, it is a divine achievement!"

"This is one of the top ten Heavenly Merits in the past three hundred years of our Great Sheng Dynasty!"

"Sir!"

Seeing that the other person was about to fall, Sha Wenlong hurriedly stepped forward to support him: "Your Highness!"

"General Sha, I can't win against him..."

Cao Fan had to admit, "Not only me, but from now on, no one in the younger generation can compete with him."

"A tall tree catches the wind, which may not be a good thing. He will face more trouble in the future!"

Sha Wenlong advised, "Besides, Your Highness, there will be other opportunities in the future. After returning, you can rest for a year or two and then immediately go on to conquer the grasslands and defeat the barbarians. The merit of that will be much greater than that of suppressing the rebellion!"

"General Sha."

Cao Fan gritted his teeth and said, "You ask why Yu Song disobeyed orders? If he hadn't, the result should have been that all those Chens would have died on the way to attack Yangchun Prefecture, while you and I led over a thousand cavalry to break through the encirclement, attack Jianmen Gorge from the rear, and coordinate with General Lü to defeat the enemy. This great achievement should have been yours and mine, it's ours, we deserve it!"

"The young master is right. How could a mere adjutant dare to disobey orders!"

Sha Wenlong clenched his fists so tightly they cracked: "When we get back, I will list out all his crimes! If all generals were like him, I don't think we should fight this war; everything would be in complete chaos!"

……

Luotian Pass.

"Liang Jinian is dead!"

"You traitors, surrender immediately, or your entire clan will be exterminated, leaving no one alive!"

"..."

Chen Sanshi's forces numbered only 1,500 men. Wherever they went, all surrendered at the mere sight of them. They eventually joined forces with the Imperial Guards of the capital, completely opening up the Luotian Pass and stabilizing the situation in the south.

At the same time, news also arrived that Dong An had committed suicide.
