The Second Master of the Iron-blooded Lian of the Red Chamber

In the past six months, Jia Lian also often received letters from Jiang Dahu.

Just as Jia Lian expected, shortly after Jia Lian's army set off, the dawn organization discovered the traces of Situ Shuo's escape.Jiang Dahu ordered his men to pursue him secretly, and at the same time took away his men to secretly defend the imperial city.Sure enough, a lot of fine work has been mixed into the Northland.

The other party originally wanted to use Situ Shuo to lure Jiang Dahu out, but he didn't want Jiang Dahu to be prepared, but instead caught a lot of secrets that Zhen Hanguan stayed in the capital.Perhaps the other party saw that the court had never been fooled, so he took the hook, and Jiang Dahu once again lost clues about Situ Shuo's whereabouts.

Jiang Dahu was not in a hurry, while defending the imperial city, he commanded his subordinates to assassinate the network, and inquire about the military situation for the battle ahead.

A few months later, the Japanese pirates could not withstand the attack of Liu Ping's tribe, surrendered and became ministers, and sent envoys to the court to ask for peace and pay tribute.The South Vietnamese Army and Zhenhanguan lost important support and fell into a situation of isolation and helplessness.

When Emperor Jinghe learned that the Japanese pirates had retreated, he was overjoyed and did not mess up his position. He issued an imperial decree that Liu Ping, taking advantage of the morale of victory, led his troops to march westward and join Jia Jing's troops to encircle the South Vietnamese army.

The land of Nanyue has high mountains and dangerous roads, and the folk customs are tough. The Nanyue Army is brave and good at fighting.In addition, Zhenhanguan itself has a high level of strategic literacy, proper command, and it is easy to hide in the mountains. Although the two armies of Jia Jing and Liu Ping converge, they cannot wipe out the South Vietnamese army in a short time.

If this is the case, firstly, the imperial army also has many capable men who are proficient in the art of war; secondly, the military strength of the imperial army is several times that of the South Vietnamese army; The army still wins more and loses less, advancing steadily.

Looking forward to more than a year, although the South Vietnamese army is still stubbornly resisting, the imperial army has already recaptured Yunnan and Guangdong Sea, and marched into the territory of South Vietnam.

Seeing that the victory was imminent, the morale of the imperial army was greatly boosted.Although Jia Jing is the head coach of the Southern Expedition Army, Jia Jing knows Jia Lian's abilities better than anyone else; besides, Jia Jing can't write two Jia characters in one stroke. Views.Therefore, in the battle of the Southern Expedition, Jia Lian was called the vanguard, but in fact he was no different from half a commander.

The situation of the South Vietnamese Army was the opposite of that of the Imperial Army.

The main force of the South Vietnamese army is the South Vietnamese army, but it is often the Siamese army that is forced to charge.Originally, the South Vietnamese Army still had an army that was forced to go to the front line to confront the imperial army head-on, but it was a strong man captured by the South Vietnamese Army in Yuehai during the Japanese Occupation.

Later, when the imperial army arrived, the Guangdong Navy saw that the imperial army was so powerful, and that they themselves belonged to the Celestial Dynasty, how could they die for South Vietnam?In the battle map, soldiers from Guangdong and Haiti turned their backs one after another.Although many died in battle, those who survived either returned to their hometowns or joined Jia Jing's department on the spot, turning around and attacking South Vietnam.

The hometown of the soldiers from Guangdong was occupied, and the people in Guangdong were devastated. The soldiers' wives and children were separated, their families were destroyed, and their hatred for South Vietnam was higher than the sky and deeper than the sea.This group of people are red-eyed, and many of them have no relatives in their hometown. They only want to kill more South Vietnamese people to relieve their hatred. Not only are they not afraid of death, but they also ask to join the vanguard camp led by Jia Lian. Rewarding, scratching with hands, biting with mouth, I can't wait to pull two South Vietnamese people on their backs.

Not only that, although the chieftain in Yunnan led a mutiny, the South Vietnamese army retreated steadily, and Yunnan was recaptured by the imperial army. Except for some generals who pledged their allegiance to the chieftain, the low-level officers and low-level soldiers also began to lose their homeland. Slack, some even want to join the imperial army like soldiers from Guangdong and Hai.

Although the morale of the soldiers at the bottom was shaken, the top leaders of the South Vietnamese Army also had their own thoughts.

Although Zhen Hanguan, Yunnan Tusi and Lou Tianlie have reached an alliance, they each have their own interests, which is in stark contrast to the unity of the imperial army.

On this day, the imperial army took another high mountain, and the South Vietnamese army was defeated again.

If it was a plain area, Jia Jing would have ordered the army to outflank the South Vietnamese army and annihilate them in one fell swoop.But in the jungle, it is easy to set up an ambush, and Jia Jing also knows the reason why the poor should not chase after him. Zhenhanguan used a group of dead soldiers as the queen, and then escaped to a mountain peak in embarrassment.

After arranging the security team and hastily setting up the account, Zhen Hanguan, Lou Tianlie, and Yunnan Chieftain Gao Yuantai went to the main account to discuss secretly.

Originally, Gao Yuantai was not satisfied with being a chieftain who obeyed orders from the imperial court, so he was persuaded by Zhen Hanguan, and cooperated with South Vietnam inside and outside, trying in vain to carve up a piece of land during the South Vietnam invasion and establish himself as a country. were expelled from their homeland.

Among the people in the tent, Gao Yuantai was the most impatient, and said angrily, "I don't know how capable Mr. Hanguan is. It's not that you were kicked out of your home by a yellow-mouthed kid. I'm afraid that all your abilities will be destroyed. It's on that lip. I don't want to light lanterns in your latrine anymore, I'd better go back and make my toast!"

With that said, Gao Yuantai stood up and was about to rush out of the camp to count soldiers.

Zhen Hanguan knew that if he was defeated in this battle, he would die without a place to die. Although Gao Yuantai was a bit reckless, the Yunnan army under him was not weak.And once Gao Yuantai leaves, those Dian troops must follow him. By then, his own strength will be even weaker, and his chances of winning will be even lower.

So Zhen Hanguan said: "Gao Tusi, if you go back now, will the Han emperor still recognize you as Tusi? It is said that Gao Tusi and his brothers in Yunnan are unwilling to join forces with Gao Tusi. Gao Tusi guesses." , now that your clan brother has accepted the imperial decree to be appointed as the new chieftain? You go back now, you still have the chieftain position? Don’t dream of spring and autumn dreams. The current situation of chieftain Gao is the same as mine, or he will go against the country and become a master , or no one wants to kill the whole body!" The more he talked, the more ferocious Zhen Hanguan's expression became, all this fell into Gao Yuantai's eyes, Zhen Hanguan looked like a person who had fallen into madness.

"You are talking nonsense! My people must support me, how could they support that coward Gao Yuanmin!" As if infected by Zhen Hanguan's madness, Gao Yuantai also screamed.But no matter how loud he yelled, he knew that Zhen Hanguan was telling the truth. Now, maybe his cousin had become the new chieftain of Yunnan.

Zhen Hanguan shook his head slightly, came back to his senses, and regained two points of his former elegance.He could see that Gao Yuantai was already panicked and scared. Gao Yuantai, who was born with fear, did not dare to go back to Yunnan, so he could only stay and let himself embolden him.Now it's not that I need Gao Yuantai, but Gao Yuantai needs himself. "How much of what I said is true and how much is false, I think Gao Tusi is clear."

Gao Yuantai frowned slightly, and thought: Zhen Hanguan was so frightened just now, why did he calm down for only a moment?Although Gao Yuantai has an upright temperament, he is not a fool who can be the leader of a place. After a little thought, he realized that Zhen Hanguan was desperate and wanted to continue to borrow his soldiers to save his life.

So Gao Yuantai also snorted coldly and said: "Mr. Hanguan's words are good, but in the land of southern Xinjiang, the Han emperors are too far away, otherwise it will not be our turn to be the hereditary chieftain of the Gao family. In the past, when the imperial court was prosperous, It is still difficult to control Yunnan. Now that the imperial court has been fighting for years, the most important thing is to pacify South Vietnam. If I take people to hide in the deep mountains and old forests, the emperor has always ignored me. Already, I will take my brothers and leave, and Zhitu hides in the mountains to live a life."

After finishing speaking, Gao Yuantai stood up with a hoot, and was about to gather his soldiers.

When Zhen Hanguan saw Gao Yuantai, he was about to tear his face apart, so he really took people away no matter how tolerant he was.Wouldn't it mean that your own side will have fewer troops?So he winked at Lou Tianlie.

Although Lou Tianlie had an arm chopped off by Jia Daishan, he is still an expert with few rivals in the world. Seeing his figure flicker, Gao Yuantai only felt a blur in front of his eyes. Lou Tianlie had already put a knife on his shoulder superior.

Gao Yuantai's bodyguards saw that the leader was restrained, and hurriedly drew their swords to face each other, but although Gao Yuantai's men were agile, how could they be the opponents of Huagulouzhong?It took only a moment for Lou Tianlie's men to unload their weapons and control him.

The guards were still glaring, but they were worried that Lou Tianlie would hurt Gao Yuantai, so they didn't dare to call for help.

Lou Tianlie is not stupid, he can understand things that Gao Yuantai can understand.It's just that he is the leader of the Jianghu gang. Although the gang members are good at martial arts, they cannot be compared with regular soldiers when it comes to marching and fighting.Keeping Gao Yuantai's department, as long as he has to hold back the imperial army, it is easy to escape with his own martial arts.Therefore, Lou Tianlie is on the same side as Zhen Hanguan at the moment.

Seeing that Gao Yuantai was restrained, Zhen Hanguan said unhurriedly: "Toast Gao, what can't you say well, why hurt your peace?"

Lou Gao Yuantai said angrily: "Zhen Hanguan, if you hurt one of my fingers, don't even think about commanding my soldiers."

Zhen Hanguan said calmly: "It's not right for Chieftain Gao to say that. I have always treated Chieftain Gao with courtesy. When will I be disrespectful to Chieftain Gao?" After speaking, he ordered Gao Yuantai's guards to be suppressed. , Lou Tianlie ordered someone to give Gao Yuantai some pills before letting Gao Yuantai go, and said flatly: "Toast Gao, if you have anything to say, why don't you sit down and talk slowly."

Bone Bone Building is not a decent family. Over the years of cooperating with Zhen Hanguan, Gao Yuantai has also seen a lot of ruthless methods used by Bone Bone Building to control people. Yu Lou Tianlie.

Gao Yuantai was forcibly fed with pills by Lou Tianlie's subordinates, and he will be controlled by others in the future, and he doesn't know what kind of pills Lou Tianlie gave him, and what kind of effect it has to torment people. Where is the courage to lead the troops to leave?

Just looking at Gao Yuantai's expression, both Zhen Hanguan and Lou Tianlie knew that Gao Yuantai's anger had dissipated, so Lou Tianlie let Gao Yuantai go.

Zhen Hanguan personally poured tea for Gao Yuantai, and said politely: "Gao Tusi also underestimated my South Vietnamese army. If there is no complete preparation, how dare the South Vietnamese king dare to make a big deal with a small one? Even if Gao Tusi can't trust me, can't he Is the ruler of Nanyue also confused? Within a month, I will compare Jia Jing and Jia Lian to die on the battlefield!" Speaking of the last sentence, Zhen Hanguan's tone was both stern and determined.

A sneer of unknown meaning crossed Gao Yuantai's face. Although he was under the control of others, he didn't believe that Zhen Hanguan had any way to reverse the situation. He sneered: "Mr. ? This preparation is really complete!"

Since the battle between the two armies, because Zhen Hanguan was bluffed by a letter from Jia Lian, he was a little hesitant and hesitant in his strategic choice. Falling to Zhen Hanguan several times, it was like throwing himself into a trap.

Naturally, Zhen Hanguan could hear that Gao Yuantai's words were mocking him, but Zhen Hanguan was not angry, and said in a low voice: "Don't look down on me, Chieftain Gao, just because I have suffered several defeats. I won't say it for now. I'm afraid that the battle plan will lead to Jia Jing's detailed work. Now that the decisive battle is imminent, in order to eliminate misunderstandings and let Jia Jing benefit from mutual suspicion between our allies, this commander must tell Chieftain Gao about the strategy."

Having said that, Zhen Hanguan pointed to a high tunnel in Kanyutu and said, "Please look, Chieftain Gao. On the day of the decisive battle, Chieftain Gao will lie in ambush on the top of this mountain. I will send someone to bring the imperial army up. When the time comes, Chieftain Gao The chieftain waited for his work, and annihilated the imperial army." After speaking, he detailed how he deployed, how he lured the enemy into deep, and how he led people to cut off Jia Jing's troops at the waist and annihilate them separately.

From what Gao Yuantai heard, Zhen Hanguan's plan was very subtle, and he couldn't see any loopholes.After pondering for a while, Gao Yuantai asked: "You sound nice, but Jia Jing and others are not stupid. How can you guarantee that they will be led to the mountain?" Called, call Zhen Hanguan for you.

Zhen Han and Guan Chengzhu thought in his chest: "No matter how cunning Jia Jing and Jia Lian were in the past, this time they had to fall into the trap. Chieftain Gao just lay in ambush on the mountain and killed the imperial army fiercely. It's because of the cowardice these days. Chieftain Gao only You need to know that after this battle, Chieftain Gao can not only regain the lost land, but also establish himself as king, and will not be subservient to the Han emperor."

Gao Yuantai still didn't believe it, Lou Tianlie interjected at the right time: "The most suitable person will do the job of luring the enemy deep. Chieftain Gao doesn't have to worry that Jia Jing won't fall for it." Tea wrote the words 'Situ Shuo' on the desk.

Although Gao Yuantai cooperates with Zhen Hanguan, it is not a superior-subordinate relationship. He has his own spy and informant, and he knows that Situ Shuo failed to rebel, and has already escaped without a trace.After hearing the news, Gao Yuantai finally gained some confidence.

After the discussion, Gao Yuantai and Zhen Hanguan came out of the tent, pretending to have lost their minds, and rescued the guards detained by Lou Tianlie, and left with their subordinates, parting ways with Zhen Hanguan.

In order to pretend to be more realistic, the conflict between the two sides also caused casualties, but none of the important people died.In the eyes of power lunatics like Zhen Hanguan, Gao Yuantai, and Lou Tianlie, the lives of soldiers at the bottom are nothing more than worthless.

Jia Jing and Jia Lian knew the truth of not chasing the poor, and also the truth of knowing yourself and the enemy and you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles, so they would quietly inquire about the news of the enemy camp.

There are such experts as Wei Jiu and Qin Yue in the imperial army, and Jia Lian's mountain-moving saber technique is also quite successful, so the three of them came out to inquire about the military situation today, and escaped many eyes and ears, because Zhen Hanguan's handsome camp There are layers upon layers of Bone Buildings and archers guarding against each other. Even if the three are brave and bold, they can't get close. Only the sound of quarreling can be heard in the main camp, and then the quarreling sound subsides. Something, and then the talks between the two parties collapsed, and Gao Yuantai left in anger.

Seeing this scene, Jia Lian and others did not act rashly, but quietly retreated back to the camp.

After everything was arranged, it was already night.Zhen Hanguan walked out of the tent and looked towards the direction of the imperial army camp with a look of sternness on his face. Although he couldn't see anything in the night, he was full of confidence this time: Although the battle lasted less than two years, Zhen Hanguan It has been more than ten years since they fought against Jia Daishan's ancestors and grandchildren. Zhen Hanguan knew that Jia Jing and Jia Lian should not be underestimated.It is also because of this that the imperial army can always inquire about some top-secret information, so that they are restrained everywhere.Since Jia Lian is so capable, he should have found out the information about his breakup with Gao Yuantai.

Zhen Hanguan said firmly to the night with a voice that only he could hear: "Jia Lian, see you in Wujing Mountain in ten days' time. Let's see who fell into whose snare this time."

It turned out that although Gao Yuantai's confidence was shaken and he wanted to part ways with Zhen Hanguan sincerely, all of this was already in Zhen Hanguan's calculations. The matter was pretended to be true, and a play was staged for the imperial court army spies who were spying secretly.

And that night, Jia Lian received a tip at dawn, saying that he had found news of Situ Shuo in the jungle in the north of South Vietnam.

After Jia Jing got the news, he discussed with Jia Lian and Liu Ping for a while, and decided to divide his troops into two groups, encircling and suppressing the South Vietnamese Army on the one hand, and chasing Situ Shuo on the other.
