Back Off, Let Me Come

Kang Shi was obviously not the only one eyeing Chaoli Pass.

When Zheng Guoxi, the philanthropist Qiao, was distributing the national seal everywhere, several self-aware small forces knew that they were unable to compete with Huang Lie and other forces for the national seal, so they did not join in the pursuit of the national seal. This actually led to a huge chaos among the forces that caused them to withdraw from Qianzhou in advance due to a strange combination of circumstances.

They are lucky and somewhat unlucky at the same time.

Fortunately, they were close to the Miaojiang River. When the national seal was born, they immediately retreated across the river with the treasure in their arms and reached the border of Yanzhou. Unfortunately, they are not the only ones who think so. Along the way, we also encountered other forces with national seals.

An alliance?

Neither trusts the other.

Are we going to fight if we don't form an alliance?

The strengths of small forces and small forces are close again.

This resulted in the fact that although the fighting in Yanzhou was not as fierce as that in Qianzhou, the people were in dire straits and corpses littered the fields.

One lucky person among them stood out and returned to Chaoli Pass smoothly, so that he could take advantage of the natural dangers of the pass to gain a chance to breathe. But this lucky guy was not so lucky, because they met Kang Shi's soldiers and horses before they were even hot at Chaoliguan. At first, they were a bit lucky.

Who among the Allied forces didn't know that Shen Tang's troops were split into two?

Kang Shi's army was small in strength. Even if Gong Xiqiu and others joined him, he still had the natural danger of Chaoli Pass to rely on, and he also held the national seal. When it comes to fighting, the advantage lies with you.

result--

Kang Shi also had the national seal in his hand.

Chaoli Pass, known as Yanzhou's dangerous pass, changed hands twice in just half a month. Kang Shi took advantage of the gap where the defenders were not stable, led his troops to attack, and captured the place in one fell swoop. He didn't even drink a sip of hot water, so he immediately deployed his only manpower to defend various parts of the pass.

A large number of scouts were sent to contact the Lord and others.

Wei Shou had been the guard of Chaoli Pass before, and the soldiers and horses he left behind were very familiar with the situation inside the pass, which actually reduced Kang Shi's workload. Kang Shi, who had not slept well for several days, had red eyes. He reluctantly cheered up: "In addition to guarding Chaoli Pass and rendezvousing with the lord's troops, there is one more important thing at the moment."

The flood situation in Yanzhou is more troublesome than expected.

Not only are there floods, but diseases are spreading wantonly.

The problem now is that they are short of people, food and medicinal materials.

If these two troubles cannot be solved, the common people will gather and launch riots, with disastrous consequences. It's not that these common people can threaten themselves when they gather together, but the war has reached this point. As long as our own forces can stabilize their position, the northwest region will basically be stable. But what if there is only land but no population? These common people will be the main force in revitalizing various states in the future.

As long as it doesn't affect yourself, save if you can.

Gong Xiqiu said: "The situation in Yanzhou is not bad..."

Compared to the chaos in Qianzhou's borders, Yanzhou is just looking at depression. After all, the war is between forces from all sides, and the people seem to be quite stable. Kang Shi said speechlessly: "Yanzhou looks okay. That's because most of the young people here have been transferred to Qianzhou by Zheng Qiao. With Chaoliguan as the boundary, 70% of the half of Yanzhou outside the pass are old and weak. They How much chaos can we create if we get together?”

Yu Zi looked solemn and said: "The bodies of the old and the weak are far less resistant than the young and strong. Once the epidemic gets out of control, it will be difficult for them to survive. The most terrible thing is that the shortage of food and medicinal materials is not only outside the customs, but also within the customs. The epidemic has also spread. ”

There is a shortage of food, medicine, and troops...

The pressure of three mountains was so heavy that people could hardly breathe.

It also made Kang Shi doubt his life. Could this be his own bad luck again? Just when he was at a loss what to do, the scouts came back with exciting information - they detected a group of men and horses, with a small number of troops, escorting a large number of baggage vehicles.

Kang Shi was shocked: "A baggage truck?"

He hurriedly asked: "Have you found out what was escorted in the car?"

Yu Zi was responsible for handing over information to the scouts, and then she integrated it back to Kangshi: "That group of people acted cautiously, and the scouts did not dare to approach rashly, but judging from the depth of the wheels of the baggage truck and the objects left behind, there were corn and wheat, and the truck was full. All."

Kang Shi put his hands in his sleeves and frowned in deep thought.

Yu Zi said: "The military advisor is worried about fraud?"

Kang Shi rubbed the bridge of his sore nose and said unnaturally: "Wei Heng thinks... there will be such a coincidence?"

Pie in the sky may fall into the sky, but it is unlikely to fall into his mouth. He was suffering from a shortage of food and was so worried that his hair was falling out. The scouts sent back the news that a mysterious food transport team had appeared near Chaoliguan? It can't be such a coincidence, right?

Naturally, he would worry that this was a plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain.

However, the food was right in front of him. If he didn't take a bite of such fat meat, he would regret it even in his dreams. He was hesitant for a while.

Kang Shi asked again: "Have you found out their identities?"

Yu Zi shook her head: "I didn't find it."

This grain transport team acted very cautiously. They did not display any flags, and the grain transport troops and horses had no iconic features. They were all dressed up as ordinary people. But judging from the momentum around them and the formation in action, they are definitely a well-trained elite.

When he was healthy, he held his chin in his hands and thought.

The signs of a sneak attack to rob food cropped up and then suppressed.

After asking for more than a dozen times in his heart, Kang Shi decided to take a risk and entrusted Gong Xiqiu with help just to be cautious.

Gong Xiqiu refused as soon as he heard this.

When I was decisive, I almost forgot the next part.

"Why not?"

Gong Xiqiu pointed to his eyes. Although he did not rely on his eyes, they were still inconvenient for leading troops to ambush: "You can do the same to the one named Chu."

Kang Shi said: "General Chu also refused."

Because Chu Jie felt that he was more reliable than Gong Xiqiu in guarding the pass, and he was the guard general of Yonggu Pass, Kang Shi really couldn't control him.

the most important is--

Strictly speaking, Chu Jie is not a subordinate of the lord.

Gong Xiqiu muttered: "If he refuses, then I will go?"

Thinking of the sacred object's sake, he didn't care about it with Kang Shi.

However, fortunately, he led his troops to ambush.

Otherwise, this farce would be really laughable.

As a sixteenth-level great master, and possessing certain special features of the Martial Arts Totem, he sensed an extremely familiar aura from the ambush target. Gong Xiqiu's face was as exciting as the overturned palette, and he played a drama of falling from the sky.

The food transport team below noticed it instantly.

"Who wants to die?"

A figure rushed out among them.

Gong Xiqiu slapped the provocative Xun Ding back, and cursed angrily: "Look who I am before I speak harshly! Xun Yong'an, I haven't seen you for a while, but your staff has grown a lot. But you are bolder!"

A slap hit Xun Ding's chest, causing his breath to surge.

Although the sky was pitch black, Gong Xiqiu's dark green martial aura lingered all over his body, and coupled with his iconic voice, Xun Ding recognized his identity. So he stabilized his figure in mid-air and landed lightly on the ground. Coupled with his father Xunzhen's words falling down in time, he immediately started shaking, covering his chest and cursing: "Gong Xiqiu, are you sick? Come out of here." Why are you so scary?"

Gong Xiqiu's attitude has always been a mystery.

However, there was no murderous intent in him, and Xun Ding was not worried that the other party was an enemy. The next second, he felt like he was being slapped in the face by reality - human heads and silhouettes appeared on the hills in the distance. If he hadn't looked carefully, he would have thought they were bushes...

Xun Ding: "..."

Gong Xiqiu is ambushing them with his troops?

As soon as this thought came out, Xun Ding had the intention to kill.

But before the killing intent could break out, Gong Xiqiu slapped him again. The latter was still humiliating him: "I really should let you see how stupid you are. Xun Yong'an, you are unleashing murderous intent in front of me. It's really terrible." Do you think your life is too long?"

In the end, Xun Zhen took action to pull his son back. He looked at Gong Xiqiu with a serious look and asked, "What's going on?"

Gong Xiqiu waved his hand behind him: "Everyone come out!"

Xun Ding: "..."

The two parties sat down and looked at each other.

I checked my eyes and saw that it was really my family!

Xun Ding said in surprise: "Commander Kang has captured Chaoliguan? But, the previous news said that Chaoliguan is at..."

Gong Xiqiu said quietly: "You didn't get the news in time."

Xun Ding: "..."

In the current situation, it is normal for the intelligence to lag for seven or eight days. Moreover, with their few manpower, it is possible to protect the food from arriving here safely and avoid refugees and allied forces in Yanzhou. It is not easy to say that it is not easy. Fortunately, Gong Xiqiu recognized him, otherwise the two armies would have to fight to find out he was one of his own, which would be really embarrassing. After the misunderstanding was resolved, Gong Xiqiu asked someone to send a message to Kang Shi, asking him to send someone to take over this batch of grain.

Only then did Xun Ding have the time to care about Gong Xiqiu's eyes.

"What's wrong with your eyes?" He was murmuring in his heart, which man is so powerful that he could blind this guy's eyes.

Gong Xiqiu raised his hand and stroked the cloth covering his eyes.

Use the calmest tone, pretending to be the most awesome: "What are you talking about, these eyes? When I broke through and was promoted to the sixteenth level, I encountered a little trouble and my eyes were temporarily blind."

Xun Ding: "..."

He just said that Gong Xiqiu seemed to have beaten him more easily than before, and together with this guy, he had reached a new level.

Xun Ding looked calm on the outside, but inside he was so jealous that his facial features were deformed.

Gong Xiqiu was originally a stumbling block between him and Alai, but now not only has this stumbling block not been kicked away, but it has risen from the ground and turned into a high mountain and dangerous peak in front of him. He is angry!

As if he could read Xun Ding's thoughts, Gong Xiqiu grinned, revealing two rows of neat white teeth. He really deserved a beating!

Xun Ding was so angry that he almost fainted on the spot.

Fortunately, Gong Xiqiu was not very interested in him.

With his eyes full of the other person, he asked the leader of the team: "Why doesn't Mama come with you?"

Xun Zhen said: "My lord, I have other things to do."

Gong Xiqiu asked: "Is it safe?"

What should I do if the holy objects are running around and bump into each other?

Xun Zhen said: "It's naturally safe."

If something could happen to my lord with this configuration, there would be no safe place in the world. Even if it doesn't work, there is still prayer.

When Kang Shi learned that the remaining grain was on the way, he was so happy that he clapped his legs and laughed: "With this good luck, who will call me sick again?"

It turns out that smiles don’t disappear, they just move.

In the same way, luck is the same.

Kangshi sent troops and horses to pick up the grain transport team. Except for Xun Ding's team, the remaining three teams were all expected to arrive, but the last one did not show up at the scheduled time. When the news came back to Chaoliguan, Kang Shi felt a thorn on the mat under his buttocks.

One word is like sitting on pins and needles.

He looked solemnly: "How come you can't receive it?"

Gong Xiqiu: "Could it be that we were delayed on the way?"

Because there is too much food in the Qianzhou Granary and the transportation target is too large, it is easy to be detected by the enemy. Chu Yao and others then discussed dividing them into five routes, staying up day and night, and taking five different routes. After careful calculation of the marching time of the five teams, they should be able to arrive at the last route when night falls today. The time difference will not exceed an hour, and now half a day has passed.

Xun Ding: "Wuhui is in charge of the last step."

Gong Xiqiu asked: "If he is in charge, there will be no delay?"

The atmosphere in the hall was solemn.

Xun Ding whispered: "If we lose contact at this moment, we must be in trouble, maybe even an enemy..."

Or an enemy with the national seal.

The broken sword that Zheng Qiao borrowed from Ning Yan was now in the hands of Chu Yao. This thing is a hot potato. Whichever hand it is placed in, the risk of encountering the enemy is greater. Chu Yao took this into consideration before finally setting off.

Kang Shi took a deep breath.

Some people don't dare to think about Chu Yao's situation.

If something happens to Chu Yao, the Lord will go crazy.

He asked Xun Zhen: "Hanzhang, could you please map out the marching route to Wuhui and arrange for troops to search."

Everyone would rather hope that Chu Yao would be delayed by encountering refugees along the way, rather than hope that they would be unlucky enough to encounter a strong enemy. On that day, Shen Tang led his troops to attack Cunshan City. Most of the soldiers who were sent out were literati and scribes, while few brave warriors had high-end combat power.

According to what Xun Zhen and others said, the lord later took Wei Shou, Jiang Sheng and Ning Yan to Zheng Qiao to ask for his head. The combat power Chu Yao left behind along the way was even more pitiful. At this time, the troops were divided in order to transport food, and Chu Yao only had more than 2,000 troops.

More than two thousand people met the forces holding the national seal... Even if Chu Yaoluanxin and a few literati were defiant, they couldn't defeat them!

Kang Shi sent out manpower to search for the whereabouts of Chu Yao and others, and at the same time sent people to squat at the agreed location to guard Chu Yao's whereabouts.

Maybe Chu Yao was just delaying.

Chu Yao didn't squat down, but the Lord did.

The next day, Shen Tang and his party, dressed as refugees, passed by here and were stopped by a patrol shortly after.

"Who are you?"

When Shen Tang saw their flags and recognized them as his own soldiers and horses, he lowered his guard, raised his hand and lifted his bamboo hat with his fingers, revealed a smiling face, and said loudly: "Me? My surname is Shen, my first name is Tang, and I have the courtesy name Youyou." Li, let your team lead over."

Her face is quite recognizable.

The team leader hurriedly reported the news.

While waiting, Shen Tang also found out some news that Chaoliguan had been occupied by her family, and her eyes lit up.

"Ji Shou can do it, this operation is awesome!"

By stabilizing Chaoliguan, the overall situation in the northwest can be determined!

Qian Yong on one side felt his teeth sore from hearing this.

Huang Lie and others planned hard, but they were finally picked up by her.

"Alas, time is also fate."

As long as the big winner in the end is not Zhang Yongqing or Huang Lie, he can accept any cat or dog. But soon, Qian Yong keenly realized that something was not right about the atmosphere. He raised his hand and tugged on Shen Tang's sleeve and winked at her: "Something's wrong!"

Could it be that there is a fraud at Chaoliguan?

(σ)σ:*☆

I know you've been scared of knives recently, don't worry, Wuhui's side is safe.
