That night, Zhen Mingku, with the hooks, ropes, bows and crossbows and other tools made during the day, put on black clothes, secretly jumped from the five or six meters high city tower, and sneaked towards Xue Ju's military camp under the cover of night.

Xue Ju's main camp is located in a mountain forest a few kilometers outside the city, backed by the Jing River.

Relying on the infrared heat detection function of his mobile phone, he dodged the layers of patrols and figured out the location of Xue Jujun's grain and grass and stables.

He sneaked into the granary, screwed the prepared timer igniter, set the time for ten minutes, and placed it around the granary.

After arranging everything, he sneaked into the stable of Xue Jujun's army again, untied the reins of the horse, and secretly rode one of the horses.

Ten minutes passed, the granary caught fire, Xue Ju's army was in chaos, and they rushed to extinguish the fire.

The frightened horses around rushed out of the stable, Zhen Ming grabbed the saddle with both hands, lay on the horse's back, and rushed out of the barracks with the frightened horses under the cover of night......

When those who put out the fire extinguished the fire in the granary, they found that the war horses had rushed out of the barracks and galloped in the direction of Jingzhou City.

There was a great chaos in Xue Ju's army, and at this time, one side of the gate of Jingzhou City suddenly opened, welcoming all these war horses into the city.

When Xue Jujun's pursuers caught up with him, the archers who had already been prepared on the city tower opened their bows and drew arrows, flying arrows like rain, and those pursuers of Xue Jujun's army in the dark had no way to defend at all, so they could only retreat from the side, seeing that all the horses in the army had entered the enemy city, but they could only stare dryly and could not do anything.

There was jubilation in the city of Jingzhou, slaughtering horses and sharing food, the people of Jingzhou, who had already run out of food, finally had a full meal, their morale was high, and they had a little more grasp of resisting Xue Jujun, Liu Gan wanted to leave Zhen to fight against Xue Ju's army in the city, but he knew that his heart had already flown to the Qin princess in Chang'an City, so he had to help him write a customs clearance document and send him to the dock in the city.

……………………

Maybe Xue Jujun didn't care about the people who fled from the waterway, the boat was not blocked and pursued, Zhen Minggu went down the river smoothly, all the way through the Bai family, the Cai family, the Song family, the Dongguo family village forts, and stopped at the fishing villages along the way, most of the fishermen here are small villages and forts built by people with the same surname, and they form alliances with each other.

Although the thieves harm the township, for many outsiders who have fled here, their local clans are also another form of occupying the mountains and eating the weak.

Unfortunately, they encountered Zhen Mingku's strength this time, and the sentinels on the shore found Zhen Mingku's traces and the horses on his boat, calling friends and companions, preparing to rob, but they were captured by Zhen Mingku, and after being beaten, they were forced to provide him and the boatmen with food.

…………………………

Two days later, the ship arrived in Fenzhou, and the ship was already full of food for "filial piety" along the way.

The boatman told Zhen Mingku, the Jing River is winding, and the waterway is obviously not the best choice, Zhen Mingku went ashore, prepared enough dry food, and galloped along the official road on horseback, just thinking about rushing to Chang'an City as soon as possible, and he had no intention of appreciating the scenery along the way.

All the way to the horse, arrived in the evening, with Liu Gan to give the customs clearance documents, pretending to be a messenger from Jingzhou, there are 800 miles to send Chang'an urgently, along the way the official post station garrison knows the front of the war, Zhen life and hand in the official documents, how dare to be lazy, good food and drink hospitality, but also for him to prepare a fast horse, this road is unimpeded, Zhen Ming worked hard overnight, only three days, rushed back to Xianyang City, more than ten kilometers away from Chang'an.

After entering the city to investigate, I learned that the eldest grandson Bei'er had just arrived in Chang'an City a few days ago, and Li Shimin, the king of Qin, was originally going to lead the army to fight against Xue Ju, in order to marry the princess of Qin, Li Shimin, who had already left Xianyang City, falsely claimed that he was unwell, and entrusted the command of the reinforcements to Shi Liu Wenjing, the governor of Tiance Prefecture, and Sima Yin Kaishan, and went to Changwu County to meet Xue Jujun, and he rushed back to Chang'an City overnight, preparing to marry the eldest grandson Bei'er a few days later.

Celebrations are taking place in the city.

Zhen Mingbitter learned the news, then he breathed a sigh of relief, and rushed for a few days in a row, now he was already so tired that he was about to fall down at any time, he found a pavilion in Xianyang City, took a hot bath, no matter what he was falling apart, he would sleep first.

This sleep is a day and a night, wake up after eating and drinking, wash clean, go to the street, find that the street full of teahouses and taverns are talking about the soldiers in front, it turned out that the Tang Army's Changping King Li Shuliang led the reinforcements to Jingzhou, relieved the siege of Jingzhou, Xue Ju's army was defeated and left.

I chose a remote corner of the teahouse and sat down, listening to the storyteller of the teahouse talk about the battle situation as if I had seen it with my own eyes, although it was a bit exaggerated but fascinating.

After coming to this era for so many years, he has already learned to obtain information from places such as teahouses and taverns, although there is biased information, but if there is enough sufficient materials, after combined analysis, the real situation can be judged to be inseparable.

When he heard the storyteller say that Xue Ju's food was exhausted, which was obviously speculation, he couldn't help laughing, what he saw when he sneaked into Xue Ju's army that night, there were three large granaries alone, even if one of them was burned, the rest of the army was enough for Xue Ju's army to eat for a month or two, how could it be possible to withdraw the army after the food was exhausted.

However, when he heard that Liu Gan and Li Shuliang saw Xue Ju's army withdraw and go out of the city to pursue, his brows couldn't help frowning, as far as he knew, although Xue Ju's vanguard was only a rabble, the real elite was his personal guard, if the Tang army won the first battle and thought that it could take advantage of the victory to pursue, it would be a big mistake.

But now that the whip is out of reach, he wants to remind Liu Gan that he can't do anything, so he has to let go of his worries, go out of the teahouse, go to the official post station, take a fast horse, and gallop towards Chang'an......

……
