Guo Daxian waved his hand vigorously and drove away the big mosquitoes around him. But he could not care about the fact that behind him, and the butt became more and more itchy. When he touched it with his hand, several big bags had been sucked out by the mosquitoes!

The captain of the guard stumbled and ran over, smirking and shouting: "General, we finally crossed Yujun Mountain! Pioneer report that they are about to reach the foot of the mountain!"

While speaking, Guo Gang, the captain of the guard with a big face, couldn't help but shed tears. Is this trip easy? Along the way, there were more than forty or fifty soldiers who died on the cliff, and more than one hundred and fifty people sprained their ankles and limped behind. If these fallen soldiers could not get out of the dense forest before dark, they would become prey of wild beasts!

Guo Daxian sighed, then raised his spirits and said to Guo Gang: "We are in danger, no matter what, we finally came out!"

Guo Gang bowed and asked, "General, will our next step be to attack the enemy level in Yujunshan? We have to take a break first, otherwise the soldiers will be very tired and have no sufficient physical strength to participate in the attack!"

Guo Daxian shook his head repeatedly: "I don't have time to wait, how can I have time to rest! However, we will not attack Yujunshan, but rush towards Qinshui!"

"Roar towards Qinshui?" Guo Gang repeated in surprise.

Guo Daxian nodded with a smile, "Roar towards Qinshui! If we attack Yujun Mountain and cut off Xu Rong's retreat, then he may fight with us and fight to the death. What's the benefit of this? Anyway, Xu Rong concentrated his main force at Yujun Mountain checkpoint, so we simply attack Qinshui and plunder Qinshui's warehouse! Moreover, even if the war is not good, we can withdraw our nests along Qinshui!"

"Snatch the Qinshui Reservoir?" Guo Gang whispered: "This matter is not very authentic. Besides, our army is full of elite soldiers selected by each army. Will they obey the general's orders?"

Guo Daxian laughed loudly. In Guo Gang's surprised eyes, he whispered: "Who doesn't love gold, silver and treasures, who wants to die in a war? Gangzi, you kid's understanding of people's hearts is still a bit short of time!"

As expected, later, after Guo Daxian announced that the target of the attack was Qinshui, only a few dozen people hesitated to express their opposition to the troops close to 800. However, with Guo Daxian's freedom of coming and going, these dozens of people finally chose to obey the orders. After all, they were few, and if they met Cao's army after leaving the large army, they would have to die.

Guo Daxian was very happy after obtaining the command of the troops. Even though he had 5,000 troops, how could those mobs be compared with these elite soldiers? Under his command, eight hundred elite soldiers immediately rushed towards Qinshui.

In the Qinshui County Government, Zhou Dao paced back and forth in the lobby, very hesitant. News came from Yujun Mountain that Xu Rong had already been in a tough battle with the Black Mountain Army, and the battle was very fierce. Qinshui was relatively calm. The five hundred regular troops in his hands, eight hundred young and strong, wasted!

Guo Wei, the lower reaches of Qinshui County, bowed to Zhou Dao, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. County Magistrate, the county magistrate is fighting desperately with the enemy in Yujun Mountain. It is a bit inappropriate for us to stay in this county yard to do nothing. Although I am not talented, I am also skilled in martial arts. I am willing to lead more than a hundred yamen runners to Yujun Mountain to reinforce the county magistrate!"

Zhou Dao shook his head, "No! Qinshui City still needs these yamen runners to suppress them. If they are all pulled away, it will inevitably cause turmoil!"

Guo Wei nodded repeatedly: "It's still my consideration. Why don't I take the young and strong people I recruited out of the city to reinforce? Anyway, as long as I defend Yujun Mountain, I can stop the enemy from going south."

Zhou Dao nodded slightly, frowned and said, "What you said makes sense, it's just that it's too risky to go out of the city to reinforce..."

"Sir!" Guo Wei said in a deep voice: "I, Guo Wei, have been in Qinshui for many years. Only the county magistrate and you understand the suffering of the people and light labor service. I am really a role model for us. Now I, Guo Wei, can share some troubles for the county magistrate and you! Please give me the order!"

"Okay, okay! OK!" Zhou Dao stretched his eyebrows and said loudly: "The strong wind knows the strong grass, and the slander knows loyal ministers! But we don't have the authorization of the county magistrate, and we cannot dispatch the entire army. So, we have recruited a total of 800 young and strong men, and you lead 300 people to Yujun Mountain first. If the county magistrate agrees, you send someone to bring his handwritten letter here, and I will order the young and strong men to go for reinforcements. What do you think?"

Guo Wei sighed and said, "Sir, rules are dead, people live, why don't you adapt!"

Zhou Dao shook his head, "Rules are rules! How can we change them at will?"

Guo Wei advised him a few more words, but he had to agree and go to the Qingzhuang Camp to select the accompanying soldiers.

When he arrived at the camp, his confidant came to serve. One of the people saw that they were all acquaintances, and asked in a low voice: "Sir, let's act according to the plan?"

Guo Wei sighed and lowered his voice and said, "This Zhou Dao is really unrealistic. He said that without Xu Rong's order, he would not be able to dispatch troops without authorization. He only agreed to lead 300 people out of the city. Only 300 people had a bird for it, and he could not achieve the goal of attacking Xu Rong from the back! Let's do this, everyone leads people to select all our confidants, and we will concentrate our efforts to seize the northern gate of Qinshui to welcome all the heroes of the Heishan Army!"

Everyone nodded repeatedly and acted separately. It turned out that Guo Wei realized that since Cao Ang took office, he had light taxes and labor service, which made him less and less oil and less. He was very dissatisfied. Guo Daxian sent someone to win over him and promised him a position as a county lieutenant, and Guo Wei was immediately moved.

Xu Rong had conducted a detailed investigation of Guo Daxian's troops, and was very hasty. He only searched the fine works that had sneaked into Qinshui in the past few days, but did not find Guo Wei's head. But since Guo Wei had already boarded the pirate ship, how could he dare to get off the ship easily? If Xu Rong knew the inside story of his rebellion afterwards, how could he tolerate him?! So Guo Wei was even more focused on resisting Xu Rong, but Zhou Dao arranged things carefully this time, so he could not find the opportunity to rebel, so he could only volunteer.

Half an hour later, more than 300 soldiers were selected, all of whom were young soldiers who were dissatisfied with Cao Ang’s new policy.

Guo Wei took them straight to the north gate. When he arrived at the entrance of the north gate, he saw that the city gate was closed and there was no idle person on the street.

Guo Wei shouted loudly: "Who is on duty in the city?"

Hearing his shouts, the thief Cao Xulie shouted loudly: "Xu Lie is here, who is under the city? What's the matter?"

When he heard that it was Xu Rong's confidant Xu Lie, Guo Wei quickly changed into a smile and said with a smile: "It turns out to be Brother Xu, it's me, Xiaowei!"

Xu Lie poked his head out of the city gate and asked in surprise: "It turns out it's Xiaowei. You are leading so many people, what are you doing?"

Guo Wei sighed and said loudly: "Now, the county magistrate asked me to lead someone to take over the defense of the North Gate and let you go down to the city to rest, so as not to waste your energy. Brother Xu, the county magistrate is so nice to you. If you become prosperous in the future, don't forget to recommend me to me!"

Xu Lie frowned slightly, "You said Zhou Dao asked you to take over me? Is there any military transfer document?"

Guo Wei said impatiently: "Brother Xu, what kind of friendship are we? Why do you still doubt me?! Now, County Magistrate Zhou’s document is here! Do you want to open it and verify it yourself? My thief, Lord Cao!"

After hearing what Guo Wei said, Xu Lie was embarrassed to come forward to verify it, and said with a smile: "No, no, you wait, we'll go down to the city now."

Guo Wei nodded with a smile and whispered to his subordinates nearby: "After they go down to the city, we will immediately seize the city gate. We must be quick, accurate and ruthless, and we must never show mercy to their subordinates! Especially Xu Lie, who is Xu Rong's confidant, killing him is a great achievement!"

Everyone nodded to indicate that they had heard the order.

Guo Wei looked around and said, "Life and Death, Wealth and Honor, This is Here!"

He was about to say something more encouraging when he heard Xu Lie shouting loudly on the city tower: "Shoot the arrow!"

Before Guo Wei could react, he saw more than a hundred archers rushing out from the battlements and starting to shoot at his subordinates with all their might. With the sound of whizzing arrows, hundreds of soldiers with complete armor were slowly approaching on the long street behind him. It was the regular army of Cao's army.

Guo Wei's subordinates were not prepared at all, and they all dreamed of getting promoted and making money. When they were covered by the arrow rain, they were suddenly panicked. The clever soldiers knew that the soldiers in their hands were raised, and the ordinary soldiers fell under the arrow rain. Some soldiers were lucky enough not to be shot at the vital point and couldn't help but scream.

Guo Wei was shocked. How did Xu Lie see through himself? He turned sideways, hid behind the guard, and raised the wooden shield. Before he could stand up and speak, the guard was already hit by several arrows and fell to the ground and died!

Guo Wei shouted loudly: "Xu Lie, what's going on? How can you shoot arrows randomly?! We are all loyal people here, you crazy bastard!"

Xu Lie didn't say anything, but just flashed to the side, and saw Zhou Dao standing on the top of the city, shouting loudly: "Treacherous Guo Wei, I am Zhou Dao here! I have been working with you for a short time, but I also know that you are a guy who is afraid of life and death and forgets righteousness when you see profit. How could a person like you volunteer to go to the battlefield?! I became suspicious at that time. Considering that your crime has not been exposed, I remained silent and waited for the opportunity! Sure enough, you actually claimed that I asked you to come here to change your defense, and I must have wanted to present the city gate to the Black Mountain bandits, and my heart would be punished!"

Zhou Dao shouted loudly, and Cao's archers shot with all their might. When Zhou Dao finished speaking, only forty or fifty people were left beside Guo Wei to stand.

Guo Wei, who was discovered by Zhou Dao, did not stop and shouted: "Yes, I want to offer the city! I am a Qinshui native, so I can't watch Qinshui creatures suffer! What's wrong with offering them to the Black Mountain Army? How many soldiers and horses are there? How many people are there? Are we staying here to die? Zhou Dao, follow me tactfully to surrender to Guo Shuai, and you will have your wealth, otherwise..."

Before Zhou Dao could finish his words, he shouted loudly: "Shoot!"
