"If the bandits return, I'm afraid there will be no peace in eastern Sichuan."

"Can I write to His Majesty..."

"This is the will of His Majesty." Murima's eyes immediately flashed with ferocity, and he interrupted Li Qinxiang.

"You little dog slave, do you want to disobey my order?!"

Murima was from the Jianzhou Bordered Yellow Banner, which was much more noble than Li Qinxiang's Han Army Plain Red Banner.

What's more, he is the younger brother of the famous Aobai, and his power is far greater than that of the shallow-rooted Li Qinxiang.

So he started calling him a dog slave.

"I..." Li Qinxiang was speechless for a moment.

I was just making a suggestion, why did you just accuse me of disobeying your orders?

"Well, this is the situation." Compared to Murima, another Jianzhou governor, Tu Hai, was much easier to talk to. He quickly spoke up to smooth things over.

"Governor Li, you just arrived and don't know the specific news yet.

"Is such that."

"Something big happened in Yunnan and Guizhou!"

Soon, Tu Hai came out with one earth-shattering piece of news after another, which stunned Li Qinxiang.

What?

Are the remnants of the Yunnan Dashi Army making a comeback?

A chieftain in southern Yunnan, calling himself the Holy Wood Western Heavenly King, gathered the wild monsters and spirits of the barren mountains, inherited Li Changsheng's banner, and rebelled again?

The momentum was so great that it swept across Yunnan and Guizhou provinces. Even the Western King Wu Changbo and the Guizhou Governor Li Benshen died for their country.

Yunnan and Guizhou provinces have fallen into the hands of bandits again?

"This this……"

Li Qinxiang sat down with his eyes wide open.

Now the situation has really returned to what it was ten years ago.

We really have to withdraw our troops.

After Yunnan and Guizhou provinces fell into the hands of the bandits, the enemy could attack Huguang in the east and Sichuan in the north.

If their army of more than 100,000 or 200,000 men still insisted on staying in the Kuidong mountainous area, once their retreat and food supply were cut off, who knows how many men could be evacuated from this remote and desolate area?

It is not impossible that they were all buried in this mountain.

“All the previous efforts were wasted.”

"All my efforts have been wasted." Li Qinxiang murmured as he slumped in his chair.

Why can't we wipe out all these damn bandits?

Li Qinxiang, former general under Zuo Liangyu, was fighting against bandits when he followed Marshal Zuo.

As a result, decades later, the bandits have not been completely wiped out.

Seeing that the last bit of bandits was about to be eliminated by himself

But no one expected that another big thing would happen in the south.

"Hmph." Murima snorted coldly and said arrogantly.

"Now that you know, let's do it quickly."

"Let the bandits in these mountain valleys starve to death."

Murima has been feeling unwell since entering this mountainous area.

There are many steep paths here, and even walking alone requires you to take it easy.

How could the Jianzhou Eight Banners, accustomed to cavalry, be allowed to freely display their abilities?

And now the bandits are rebelling...

Finally, the opportunity to show off has arrived.

"Let's go to the south and make a name for ourselves!" Murima shouted.

"Humph! The Green Camp soldiers are unreliable!"

"Even the prince can be beaten to death by a group of bandits."

"We, the Eight Banners of Jianzhou, are the only ones who can truly share our master's worries!"

"Once we get to Sichuan, I'll show those bandits what the Jianzhou Iron Cavalry, unrivaled in archery and horsemanship, are like!"

"What Holy Wood Heavenly King? When we catch him, he'll be cut into pieces!"

Murima was full of high spirits, as if he had already seen himself defeating the bandits in one fell swoop, recovering Yunnan and Guizhou, and making an unprecedented contribution.

. "

In the Green Camp soldiers' camp, Shi Lanshu was shocked to learn that the Jing Army was about to retreat.

"Uncle, this, this..." she said in surprise.

“Isn’t this giving up halfway?

"This is also a helpless move." Li Qinxiang said helplessly, holding his forehead lightly.

"If we don't withdraw our troops quickly, and the bandits attack our rear, we will be doomed.

"......" Shi Lanshu bit her lips lightly.

"Alas, these bandits are so hateful!"

Then, Shi Lanshu thought for a moment and spoke.

"uncle"

"Can you wait for your niece for one night?"

"Just one night."

"Although I am not talented, I am willing to lead the swordsmen of Qingyun Villa to cut off the head of that stubborn bandit!"

"Then they will naturally collapse..."

"No." Li Qinxiang immediately dissuaded him.

"Fighting in an army is completely different from fighting in the martial arts world."

"No matter how good your skills are, you can't stop a barrage of arrows and crossbows."

"Although the bandits are at the end of their rope, they still number several thousand, and the stronghold is heavily fortified. If my niece were to take the risk alone,

"Uncle, don't worry." Shi Lanshu felt confident.

"My niece has her own ideas."

Soon, Shi Lanshu told her plan.

As for Li Qinxiang, his eyes became brighter the more he listened.

"Great idea, what a great idea!!"

"Duke Lin!"

"Good news, good news!!"

Suddenly, such a surprised cry was heard among the foggy mountains in eastern Sichuan.

In this barren land, villages, camps and forts stand among the steep mountains and forests.

And the people walking among them all had their hair tied up.

The word "萌" (cute) was clearly written on the big flag flying above the camp.

Obviously, this is the gathering point of Nan Meng's remaining forces.

"What good news?"

Li Laiheng, who had just woken up, was still confused.

This simply dressed rebel leader was a little confused.

At this hour, what good news can there be?

The copycats can only survive one day at a time.

"The Tartars have retreated!" The general saw through Li Laiheng's doubts and said excitedly.

"Everyone retreat!"

"Everyone retreated?" Li Laiheng was stunned.

“Why?

You know, the army relied on stakes and trenches to launch a heavy siege, and had already trapped Li Laiheng so that he could not move.

In addition, the resources in the deep mountains are scarce, and Li Laiheng's troops are simply unable to make ends meet. After a while, the Zhongzheng Camp, which has run out of ammunition and food, will probably collapse.

Just when victory was about to happen, the Qin army retreated?

This doesn't make sense.

"But what about the Tartars' conspiracy?" Li Laiheng asked hurriedly.

"Is it possible that you want to

"No." The general shook his head repeatedly.

"The Tartars retreated in a hurry, leaving behind countless food, equipment, and weapons in the camp.

"The brothers are moving now."

"Hiss-----" Li Laiheng hurriedly put on armor and came out.

"Let's go and have a look."

Soon after, he brought his personal soldiers to the ruined camp of the Qin army.

Just as the general said, even the pots and pans were thrown all over the floor, and the place looked chaotic and miserable.

The Jing Army retreated very thoroughly, and even the strong camps that could have been used to defend were lost to Li Laiheng's troops.

The remaining soldiers of the Loyal Camp were happily collecting everything they could use and moving it to the camp.

"this….."

"That's really weird."

Fearing it was a trap, Li Laiheng sent out scouts in all directions to investigate repeatedly, trying to find out what was going on.

After repeated confirmation, Li Laiheng was convinced

The Xuan army did give up the victory that was about to be achieved and retreated in full force.

. "

"Something must have happened in the Tartar rear!"

Li Laiheng said firmly.

"You guys, quickly send more good guys to investigate!"

"Make sure you understand the situation."

This surprise came too suddenly.

If he didn't take the opportunity to follow Jingjun, take a few bites, and tear off some flesh and blood, he would have wasted this God-given opportunity.

While Li Laiheng was waiting anxiously, after a while, the scout he sent out brought back news.

"We captured a few wounded soldiers abandoned by the Tartars."

“After interrogation, they all confessed.

"It seems that there is a change in the southwest, and the Jing army is retreating in large numbers."

"Our sentries have discovered traces of the Tartars about fifty miles away."

"The formation is in disarray and the ranks are scattered."
