In the camp of the Ming army, a soldier came to report in a panic: "Tell the prince, tell the general!" Something is wrong! Our grain routes were attacked by thieves, and the grain trucks were burned down by thieves! ”

"What? How did the thieves get behind us? Li Dingguo pretended to be panicked.

"It's over, it's over! Now our grain route is cut off, and the army's morale will be unstable! Bai Wenxuan sighed.

Li Dingguo asked, "How many thieves have come back to our backs?" ”

The soldier replied, "About three or four thousand!" ”

Wang Xinyu frowned: "The thieves cut off our army's food route, which will cause the army's heart to be shaken!" Troops must be sent to exterminate the Tartars who are attacking our grain routes! ”

When the soldiers retreated and there were no outsiders around, Li Dingguo asked, "Is this trick useful?" Wu Sangui and Ai Xing Ah will they be fooled? ”

It turned out that all this was a plan carefully set up by Wang Xinyu, Deng Hong was sent to Wu Sangui's army undercover, and the Ming army deliberately let a small road for the Qing army to enter. As for the burned grain, on each truck, only the top few bags of grain were aged grain mixed with half sand, and the rest of the bags were filled with broken straw mixed with sand. Although the army has lost more than ten stones of aging and deteriorating food, it can be considered a success if it can lure Ai Xing Ah to be fooled.

"Let King Gongchang take a group of men and horses and pretend to exterminate the Tartars hiding in the mountains! Only defeat, not victory! Then we gradually withdrew our troops and led the Tartars into our pre-set ambush circle! As long as he can kill with one blow and get rid of Ai Xing, Wu Sangui will inevitably withdraw his army! Wang Xinyu said.

"Good! Then act on it! Let King Gongchang bring 5,000 men and horses to find the Tartars, and then if we can't find them, we will let people bring a batch of fake grain and grass for them to burn! Li Dingguo nodded slightly.

Bai Wenxuan left the city with 5,000 Ming troops and went to the avenue leading to Bamo to search for the Qing army that attacked the Ming army's grain route.

When they arrived at the place where the grain trucks were attacked, they saw that all the trucks had been burned to ashes. Bai Wenxuan said angrily: "Bold thief, dare to sneak attack our army's grain road!" Search the mountains for me! These thieves must be found! Otherwise, our army's food route will not be peaceful! ”

Wu Guogui took 3,000 soldiers to hide in the mountains and forests. Seeing Bai Wenxuan leading the army to arrive, he immediately drilled into the mountains and forests.

"The thieves are over there!" A Ming sergeant shouted.

"Chase!" Bai Wenxuan shouted.

Five thousand Ming troops pursued deep into the mountains and forests.

The 3,000 soldiers in front were originally elite Qing troops who were good at mountain warfare, and they arranged traps along the way and hid in the shadows to release cold arrows, which made Bai Wenxuan lose dozens of people, but he couldn't catch up with these Qing troops at all.

Wu Guogui led 3,000 Qing troops and led the Ming army around the mountains and forests. Bai Wenxuan's Ming army couldn't catch up with the Qing army, but instead lost a group of people. But Bai Wenxuan pursued closely, so that the Qing army could not free up their hands to attack their own grain routes. On both sides, you chase after me, and there are also lone people in the Qing army who were killed by the Ming army.

"General Wu. There is still a plan for lowly duties! Deng Hong offered another strategy.

"What's the best way to get rid of these dogs?" Wu Guogui asked.

Deng Hong pointed to the mountain road in front of him: "General Wu took the main force and went over there, waiting for the opportunity to attack Minggou's grain road again." Take 500 people with your humble position, lead the Ming dog to the mountain road on the left, and create a chance for General Wu to escape, so that General Wu can make another miraculous feat! ”

Wu Guogui was overjoyed and said: "Brilliant plan! However, it is too dangerous for Mr. Deng to lead the troops to attract Ming Dog! Let's go to the right with Mr. Deng leading 2,400 people! The matter of attracting Ming Gou will be left to General Ben! ”

"General, you are a handsome son, how can you take risks! This kind of thing is still humble! Deng Hong pleaded.

Wu Guogui made a blank face: "The handsome man has explained, you must ensure the safety of Mr. Deng!" Here General Ben is the main general, Mr. Deng must listen to me! Hurry up and take the main force and go! ”

Deng Hong couldn't survive Wu Guogui. I had to arch my hand: "Thank you, General!" Humble duty must live up to the mission! ”

The two Qing armies parted ways, Wu Guogui took 500 men and horses to drill into the depths of the mountains and forests, and Deng Hong took 2,400 men and walked through the mountains and forests on the right.

Soon. Bai Wenxuan caught up, and Wu Guogui let people release arrows to attract the attention of the Ming army.

Bai Wenxuan was really "fooled" and led the army to chase after Wu Guogui. As a result, Deng Hong seized the opportunity. Five days later, it reappeared on the edge of the grain route of the Ming army. The Qing army lay in ambush in the mountains and forests for two days, and the second batch of "grain transport teams" of the Ming army appeared again.

"Kill!" Deng Hong pulled out his sword and pointed to the avenue in front of him.

More than 2,000 Qing troops fought out of the mountains and forests and rushed straight to the Ming army's baggage team.

"Not good! There is an ambush! "I saw more than 2,000 fierce and vicious Qing troops killed. The Ming army auxiliaries and Minzhuang abandoned the grain carts one after another and fled in all directions.

Deng Hong rushed to the avenue with the Qing army, and once again set fire to the Ming army's baggage vehicles.

Seeing the billowing smoke rising from the mountain road in the distance, Wu Guogui was overjoyed: "Mr. Deng has succeeded again!" Ming dog food and grass were burned twice, and this time they will inevitably be shaken by the hearts of the army! ”

Of course, just like last time, except for the above bags of aged grain mixed with sand, the rest of these grain trucks are crushed straw, rice bran, sorghum husks and corn husks mixed with sand.

Upon hearing the news that the grain cart had been cut again, Li Dingguo pretended to be furious and sent another 5,000 men and horses to assist Li Dingguo.

At this time, Zhao Liangdong's 50,000 Qing troops also joined Wu Sangui. At this time, Wu Sangui had already learned about Mu Zhan's defeat and killing, and Wang Jinbao wanted to attack the grain and grass warehouse of the Eight Mo Ming Army but failed. Because Mu Zhan was killed, Wang Jinbao lost more troops and lost most of his men, leaving less than 2,000 people to flee back from the forest. Wang Jinbao's remnants of the defeated army walked back and forth in the forest for more than a month, and on the way there were countless people who died of illness, starvation, scattered, bitten by poisonous snakes, and died of exhaustion, and when they walked out of the forest, Wang Jinbao had less than 500 people left.

The defeated Wang Jinbao did not dare to come to see Aixing, so he led the remnants of the defeated army to retreat to Kunming.

Hearing these news, Ai Xing Ah was furious and said: "Wang Jinbao is a dog minion! I actually lost one of my generals! I also lost all my Eight Banners elite! After the general returns to Kunming in victory, he must be punished for his crimes! ”

Three days later, one of Wu Guogui's personal soldiers came back to report that he had succeeded and burned two batches of grain and grass for the Ming army.

Ai Xing Ah and Wu Sangui were overjoyed, and almost said in unison: "This Mr. Deng is really a great talent!" ”

"Such a talent, he should do things for the imperial court!" Aixing Adao.

Wu Sangui said with a smile: "To do things for this king is to do things for the court!" What's the difference? ”

Although Ai Xing didn't say anything on his mouth, he was unhappy in his heart: Doing things for you is far from doing things for the court!

"The thieves' grain and grass were burned by our army, and if you want to transport food from Bamo again, it will take at least a month, and the thieves' food can't support it for so long, and the army will inevitably be in turmoil within a few days! As long as we wait another four or five days, it is estimated that they will withdraw their troops! Liu Xuanchu stroked his beard and smiled.

The Qing army sent spies everywhere to spy on the Ming army. Wu Sangui also asked people to go to the opposite hill to observe the movements in the Ming army city from a distance. The next day, I saw Li Dingguo adding troops to the back, and it seemed that he was going to deal with Wu Guogui and Deng Hong. After another three days, it was found that the Ming army showed signs of withdrawal.

"Tell the marshal! General Wu and Mr. Deng led the army back victoriously! "A soldier came to report.

"Hurry up and welcome the two of them in!" Wu Sangui said.

Wu Guogui and Deng Hong approached the big tent of the Chinese army and saluted Wu Sangui and Aixing A.

"Great work! The thieves' grain and grass have been destroyed, and the army's heart has been shaken! The spies sent by this king found that the thieves were about to abandon the impregnable city and withdraw their troops, hahaha! Wu Sangui looked up to the sky and smiled.

Early the next morning, the spies came to report: "The thieves have all withdrawn!" There was no movement in the city! ”

Wu Sangui was overjoyed: "Pass my order, immediately pull out the camp and go to the thief's city!" ”

The Qing army arrived at the city abandoned by the Ming army, and just when Wu Sangui and Ai Xing'a were about to enter the city, Deng Hong dissuaded the two: "Marshal, General Pingxi!" You two are the pillars of the court, and you can't enter the city easily, for fear that the thieves will be deceitful! Be careful! ”

"The city is already empty, how can there be fraud?" Wu Sangui asked in surprise.

"The pseudo-Ming pseudo-Jin king and the Qiongzhou governor Wang Yu, these two are extremely treacherous and cunning. Since these two would build such a castle, they would probably do something in the city! Please be careful! Deng Hong arched his hand.

Wu Sangui nodded: "That's right!" In this way, let dozens of auxiliaries enter first! ”

The Qing army sent fifty auxiliaries into the city to search carefully. After about half an hour, two auxiliaries came out to report that the city had long been empty, and that nothing suspicious had been found in it, and no traps or anything else had been found.

"Into the city, right?" Wu Sangui turned his head and asked Deng Hong.

"It's better for the two adults to be careful! Wait and see! Deng Hongdao.

After another half an hour, I heard an earth-shattering explosion in the city, all the fortresses collapsed in the explosion, and the Chinese army camp in the center of the city was also blown into ruins.

"The thief is really cheating!" Wu Sangui broke out in a cold sweat. If it hadn't been for Deng Hong's reminder just now, I'm afraid that when he entered the city, he would definitely go to the fortress and the central camp, then he would definitely be dead now! It's scary to think about.

Ai Xing Ah sighed: "Mr. Deng is really Zhuge in the second life, and he is like a god!" ”

"Thank you General Pinxi for the compliment!"

"Mr. Deng, are you willing to follow General Ben?" Ai Xing asked.

Depend on! Dig the corner of Lao Tzu and follow him! Wu Sangui scolded in his heart.

Deng Hong looked embarrassed, first looked at Wu Sangui, whose face was already gloomy, and then at Liu Xuanchu, his lips squirmed a few times, and he hesitated for a moment before he spoke: "Thank you General Pingxi for your love!" But the lowly position was introduced by Lord Liu, and the lowly position cannot betray Lord Liu and the prince! ”

"Mr. Deng, doing things for General Ben is doing things for the court, and it's not the same as doing things for King Pingxi?" Ai Xing Ah was very displeased.

Deng Hong arched his hand and replied: "My lord, this matter is still allowed to be considered for a few days. (To be continued.) )
