Thirty miles away, Jia Long held his hands behind his back and sighed quietly for a while, a little relieved and helpless. Zhang Ren had been following him for more than twenty miles, and the scouts ran back and forth, but the main force refused to approach and did not give him any chance to attack, but stuck behind him and refused to leave. Jia Long understood that Zhang Ren hoped to attack him with the people intercepted in front of him. He was waiting for the opportunity and waiting patiently.

This is a promising young man, but unfortunately, he can't use it for me.

None of the cavalry came back, and the entire army should have been wiped out. This was both as Jia Long expected and somewhat unexpected. More than one hundred cavalrymen were going to chase and kill more than four hundred young men. Even if they win, they would win miserably. What's more, there were more than three thousand ba people behind Gan Ning, but no one could escape, and there was not even a letter to report. He still felt something was wrong.

"Captain!" A personal guard beside him pointed at a war horse running from a distance and called out. Jia Long knew that the scout he sent to inquire was back, and he couldn't help but feel excited. After knowing the result of the more than a hundred cavalry, he could roughly guess what happened before.

The scout rushed to Jia Long, turned over and dismounted, rushed a few steps, and saluted Jia Long: "Captain."

"Don't hurry, just say it slowly." Jia Long relaxed instead, waved his hand gently, and signaled the scout to slow down. The scout took a sip of water and calmed down, and then he told the situation he found out.

He checked the battlefields of the two battles. On the first battlefield, there were 351 corpses in brocade clothes, 126 knights, and on the second battlefield, there were 281 corpses of 183 knights. In other words, many knights who rushed to fight for their lives were all killed in battle. Judging from the war horses that were still tied to trees after being cut down, this time Gan Ning successfully curbed the speed of the cavalry, which led to the annihilation of the entire knights.

When Jia Long heard this, his brows frowned slightly. He felt that he was underestimating the enemy. He wanted to use the advantages of the cavalry to wipe out the group of young men, the young men of Gan Ning, to kill the morale of the Ba people, and then break it up in one go, but more than 300 knights were completely wiped out by Gan Ning. In this way, not only did the purpose not be achieved, but his morale was damaged. More importantly, except for some scouts and war horses, he could only walk by himself, and could no longer take out a slightly larger cavalry.

Bashu is mountainous and cavalry is inconvenient, but on this plain, a cavalry of hundreds of people can play a crucial role in wedging into the battlefield at critical moments. This is also the reason why Jia Long will lead more than 300 cavalry.

However, this cavalry that he relied on to reverse the situation was completely wiped out by Gan Ning and even broke the Wu Ban. When he thought of Wu Ban, Jia Long's eyelids began to jump uncontrollably. Wu Ban was monitored by Liu Yan. As a result, he died on the battlefield. How could he explain to Liu Yan when he went back?

"Oh--" Jia Long sighed softly, frowning.

Soon, Jia Long got the news again. The Ba people were thirty miles ahead, occupying the dangerous terrain, and waiting for them to attack. After hearing the newspaper, Jia Long ordered the entire army to rest on the spot, with his hands behind his back, and kept paced around.

All the supplies such as tents were lost. Each soldier had only three days of dry food except for his own weapons. Fortunately, the weather was relatively warm at this time. Even the open-air camping was not a big problem. After hearing the order to rest, they still maintained their formation and took turns to send people to fetch water and chewed the dry food. They also knew that there were blockages in front and pursuers behind, and that they could fight at any time. They dared not be careless. More importantly, although they followed Jia Long, the captain, for less than a month, they knew that Jia Zheng was a killer without blinking, and no one wanted to lose their heads in vain.

As night fell, Jia Long had not issued a new order, and before the soldiers sat back to back together, they fell asleep. Jia Long's thin figure gradually hid in the night, but his steps were still steady and unconfused.

...

Park Hu and others discussed for a long time, but finally handed over the military power to Liu Xiu. They did not want to die like Ma Xiang and Zhao Ge. At this moment, they were not sure if they wanted to defeat Jia Long. First, Jia Long's record was too amazing, and second, they themselves knew that in terms of courage, the Ba people were brave enough, but fighting was not all possible by virtue of courage. They followed the court many times to suppress rebellions, but no one was able to take command. They were just a knife, a relatively sharp knife.

Since you have defected to Liu Xiu, then just be more thorough.

Liu Xiu took over the military power and redeployed the defensive formation. The formation arranged by Park Hu and others was relatively rough, that is, when the enemy came, they rushed forward, surrounded them, and attacked from all directions. Such a formation is suitable for dealing with opponents with a huge number of people and a lack of fighting will. It is not easy to stop Jia Long. Liu Xiu made adjustments, strengthened his defense and prepared for a hard battle.

When Liu Xiu arranged the formation, Guo Jia sat aside, hugged his knees with his hands, looked up at the sky, and blinked from time to time. After Liu Xiu finished making arrangements, he handed over a pot of water and smiled slightly: "You are thirsty, drink a sip of water to moisten your throat."

Liu Xiu took the kettle and took a big mouthful of it. Park Hu and others were stubborn and could not understand his arrangements. He had to explain it over and over again, and his throat was almost smoking. "Fengxiao, you will be in the back later."

Guo Jia smiled and knew that Liu Xiu was going to lead the way again this time, he shook his head: "General, it seems that it is not enough to wait for the rabbit."

Liu Xiu was stunned and thought for a moment: "You mean, Jia Long won't come?"

"If Zhang Ren did not give him a chance to attack, I think Jia Long would not come." Guo Jia pointed around: "Jia Long is from Shu County. He rushed to Mianzhu from here. It is impossible not to know the terrain here. He sent cavalrymen to seize this terrain. Now that we have taken the lead, can he still fall into the trap?"

Liu Xiu rolled his eyes, raised the corners of his mouth, and there was a little bitterness in his mouth. He just was just concerned about arranging Park Hu and others, but forgot about this. Jia Long is not a pig, and he knew this was a pit, would he still come? Although the scout reported that Jia Long had been camping thirty miles away, but for a night, who knew if it would change.

"Then what do you think he might be?" Liu Xiu was a little overwhelmed. This was the Chengdu Plain with a flat horse. It was close to the western foot of Longmen Mountain between Mianzhu and Luo County, so he could find a terrain that was conducive to defense. If Jia Long did not walk from here and turned west, he would not find any good terrain there. Even if there was one, it would be too late for him to change his formation now.

"I think it should be here." Guo Jia looked at the ground. There was a sketch on the ground.

"Shifang?"

"Yes. Shifang, Jialong's location, our location, roughly form an equilateral triangle, thirty miles, if you march quickly, you can reach it in about an hour. Although Shifang is just a county and there will be no more troops, if Jialong enters the city, we will have no choice. I think Jialong will turn suddenly and rush to Shifang. When the scout reports the news, we may not be able to catch up even if we want to."

Liu Xiu nodded repeatedly, his palms were covered in sweat.

"But we have a boat." Guo Jia laughed: "If Jia Long wants to reach Shifang, he must first cross the Luoshui."

Liu Xiu glanced at Guo Jia and laughed. Shifang County is in the south of Luoshui. If Jia Long wants to get to Shifang from his current location, he must cross the Luoshui. Although Luoshui is not difficult, it is urgent that Jia Long will find it difficult to cross the Luoshui three or four thousand people, but they have this advantage. Gan Ning has a hundred boats anchored on the Luoshui and flow upstream, which can easily smash Jia Long's plan to pieces.

Of course, if you sit here and wait foolishly, you will be unable to talk about anything.

Liu Xiu then found Gan Ning. After Wang Zhi's acupuncture, Gan Ning had fallen asleep deeply. His breathing was stable. Liu Xiu touched his forehead and felt a little hot. But it was not considered perm, and the problem of inflammation should not be serious.

"He is in good health and has used medicine in time, so there should be no major problems." Wang Zhi said with a smile.

"That's good." Liu Xiu did not disturb Gan Ning, and then asked the young man who was serving Gan Ning to call other people in charge and talked about his plan. The young man immediately nodded without saying a word and agreed to send someone to Luoshui.

...

Humingshan, Liu Yan and Mrs. Lu sat opposite him. Liu Yan wore a scarf and dressed in a well-tailored cotton dress. He looked elegant and graceful. He was just a scholar-educated scholar, not a governor of Yizhou who held the power of Yizhou. However, behind him were five big-sleeved warriors, staring at Mrs. Lu on the opposite side.

Liu Yan was very calm. It was not because of these five warriors. He knew that Mrs. Lu's Taoist skills and martial arts were good. If she really wanted to hurt him, these five warriors could not stop them. However, he had another move. His son Liu Zhang was now "studying" with Zhang Lu and Zhang Wei. There were also five such warriors around him. If Mrs. Lu had any bad intentions, she had to consider her two sons first.

Obviously, this move is very effective. Although Mrs. Lu looked unwilling and there was a faint anger between her eyebrows, she could only hide between her eyebrows and dare not show it. On the contrary, she had to patiently explain some key points of meditation to Liu Yan.

After hearing Mrs. Lu's words, Liu Yan went back and tried to sit in meditation and found it very interesting. In fact, Confucianism also has a method of meditation, which is the Xinzhai mentioned in "Zhuangzi", which was passed down from Confucius' lineage. However, Confucius used it to be quiet, reflecting on his own gains and losses every day, and also having the function of health preservation. Later, art gradually invaded Confucianism, and this pure meditation had more skills in breathing, but it was not as deep as the research in Taoism. As a Confucian scholar, Liu Yan was not unfamiliar with these, and soon found a way.

He liked the feeling of being in a daze very much. He was busy with official duties every day and sat quietly for half an hour. He really felt refreshed and relaxed all over.

However, what he liked more was asking Mrs. Lu. Seeing the younger and younger woman in front of him clearly hated him, but had to bow her knees to him, he felt an indescribable pleasure in his heart.

Yizhou is so good. Liu Xiu's army has been unable to advance so far. He can only look at Hanzhong through Zhongnan Mountain. The surprise soldiers sent by Yuan Shu were also trapped in the Xicheng by Liu Fan and Pang Xi, and finally had to withdraw from Hanzhong. Jia Long and Wu Ban arrived in Mianzhu. After just a battle, they blocked the rioters in Mianzhu. When they were just waiting to break through Mianzhu City and cut off the heads of the rioters. The remaining rioters naturally dispersed and Yizhou would return to peace.

Yizhou is mine, no one can rob it. This little woman... is so interesting. Liu Yan looked at Mrs. Lu's face, which was faintly browsing, and couldn't help laughing. He was amazed. This woman in her early thirties is like a young woman in her twenties, without even a wrinkle. It's not like me. She is not yet fifty years old, and her hair is a little white. It seems that this technique does have the effect of maintaining her face. In time, I might be able to turn white hair into black and rejuvenate.

"Encourt!" Wu Yi walked in quickly and shouted. When he saw the scene in the hall, he hesitated for a moment and walked quickly to Liu Yan. Liu Yan was a little unhappy, but he also knew that Wu Yi was not that kind of reckless person. He must have had no choice but to do so.

"What's up?"

Wu Yi approached Liu Yan and whispered a few words. Liu Yan's eyes immediately opened and showed a surprised light: "Seriously?"

"The person who reported the news is outside, and I will know it as soon as you ask."

"It's outrageous. What does Yuan Shu want to do?" Liu Yan was furious. The calm and elegant just now swept away. He stood up, shook his sleeves, and walked into the hall. The guard rushed over to help him put on his shoes. Liu Yan was waiting with his feet and cursing. As soon as he put on his shoes, he hurried out.

The hall suddenly became empty. Mrs. Lu stood up and looked at the direction where Liu Yan disappeared. She couldn't help but sneer with disdain on the corner of her mouth. She raised her sleeves, slapped her nose, turned around and walked towards the inner hall, and looked after the little Taoist boy next to her: "Open all the doors and windows to disperse this vulgarity."

"Here." The little Taoist responded with a smile and ran to open the window. Mrs. Lu returned to the inner hall and saw Zhang Lu and Zhang Wei coming over with pouting. She looked at her with grievance. She couldn't help feeling a little uncomfortable. She reached out to touch their heads: "Okay, okay, when the general of the chariot and cavalry will destroy this thief, we will be safe. Then we will take you to Chang'an."

Zhang Wei immediately became happy: "Mother, I still have to go to Jinyang."

Zhang Lu's mouth was slighted, but he wanted to speak but stopped, but just glanced at Zhang Wei with envy.

Mrs. Lu smiled and pinched Zhang Wei's little face: "Hurry up, go and invite Taoist Zuo. My mother needs to ask him for help if she has something to do."

Zhang Wei ran out happily and soon invited Zuo Ci. Zuo Ci carried Zhang Wei on his shoulders and walked like flying, making Zhang Wei laugh. The two of them came to the hall. Zuo Ci put down Zhang Wei and said with a smile: "What's the matter if Madam invites me?"

Mrs. Lu told her about Liu Yan's anger in the hall just now. When Zuo Ci heard this, she couldn't help but be surprised: "This is strange. Isn't Yuan Shu's people trapped in the West City? Why are there new moves?"

"It is precisely because I don't understand that I want to invite you to take a look and then tell General Cheqi." Mrs. Lu sighed, "Yizhou is too chaotic. I hope General Cheqiqi can pacify Yizhou as soon as possible and let the people of Yizhou be as peaceful as Guanzhong."

"Is that? That's all?" Zuo Ci squeezed his eyes, laughed, and left.

"This stinky Taoist priest is not serious." Mrs. Lu was angry and scolded. (To be continued) Please search for astronomy, the novel is better and faster!!!
