Although there were no soldiers in the Taolin Fortress, it was not entirely empty. There were hundreds of young and strong people from Shahe Township. They were all good at fighting against the bandits of Li Damu’s army during the spring season. So why are they here? This starts with Wen Chou leading his troops to Luancheng County to buy grain.

But the Japanese Wen Chou, Chen Ning and Dong Jiang led 400 Taolin soldiers, embarked on the journey to Luancheng County with great pride and courage! The news of Wen Chou leading his army to leave spread like wildfire. Ordinary people may just smile when they heard it, but if it was heard by those who were interested, it would be very different! They would think this was an opportunity, a rare opportunity.

Now, there are only a few people in Shahe Township who think so! These people are not others, but bandits of the former Li Damu tribe who were sentenced to be labored for a year by Wen Chou, and were captured by Wen Chou led the people of Shahe Township. Wen Chou was usually safe and there was no trouble, especially after the establishment of the Taolin School Command, they were even more honest. Moreover, Wen Chou only blamed them for laboring for a year, and then they would restore their good family status, which made them all hope.

These people did come into contact with the remnants of the bandits of Li Damu's army not long ago, so the thief's heart was revived and rekindled. They had long tried every means to convey the recent situation of Shahe Township and Taolinsai to the bandits who came to join in. Although Shahe Township, which was developing safely and steadily on the surface, there were undercurrents underground!

Back to the day Wen Chou ran away.

After these people tried to spread the information, a group of bandits came to attack the trap that night! They were caught off guard by the Taolin! There were quite a few people, with more than 3,000 people! But I don’t know which of the three remaining leaders. Now it seems that the three are divided equally, and the more than 10,000 Li Damu’s army may be divided into three parts.

However, what I never expected was that Taolinsai was prepared for it.

Speaking of which day, when discussing who went to buy grain, Taolinsai people took into account many threats and repeatedly deduced them. They decided to go to buy grain without any mistakes. Among them, the main enemy was the remnants of Li Damu, because they were the closest Black Mountain Army bandits. Moreover, they were the most familiar with this place because many bandits themselves were residents nearby before they fell into the grass.

However, when Li Damu died, his subordinates had no leader and conquered each other, and they had a chance to breathe in Shahe Township. Of course, there was also the deterrent effect of Wen Chou, the title of a fierce man! After all, Li Damu, the superior of these bandits, led an army of more than 10,000, and they were defeated by Wen Chou, let alone them?

After the Japanese Chou left, villagers went to Taolinsai to visit and observe the training of Taolinsai soldiers! On the surface, they were trying to further carry forward the tradition of supporting the army, but in fact they were to let these villagers hide in the Senezuela in case of emergency. From morning to night, there were about thousands of strong people coming to the Senezuela! Perhaps it was a day-to-day talk to them to kill the enemy, but it was more than enough to defend the city, not to mention that they were facing bandits with not very strong combat power!

As a result, a premeditated empty barrier was formed, and the soldiers of the Taolin Pass had long been ambushing outside the barrier, preparing to give the enemy a fatal blow!

That night, more than 3,000 bandits fell into an ambush in Taolin Pass and fled only hundreds of people. Others either died or surrendered! In Shahe Township, there were very few casualties, which were almost negligible. This was a great victory, led by the army's Sima Jiang Xuan and Jiang Jinyan! Jiang Xuan's prestige in Wen Chou's army was gradually established from this battle!

Of course, this is also due to the courage of Yan Liang, Liu Zhong and others! Otherwise, no matter how good the plan is, it would be useless if it does not have enough execution!

The great victory that night did not make Jiang Xuan relax his vigilance, but instead became more careful, because he learned from the captive bandits that there were nearly 10,000 bandits who came to the night attack this time, and were led by three leaders under Li Damu.

Now that one of them has been broken and the other two have not come to rescue them for some reason? But this is also what Jiang Xuan is worried about. The enemy on the surface is not scary. What is scary is that you know that there are two tigers waiting for an opportunity to retaliate, but you don’t know where they are hiding!

But I heard the captives say that the three were originally moving forward. Their first launched a charge, and the other two arrived later! But things went against my wishes. Perhaps the bandits who later saw that Taolinsai had been prepared, so they retreated quietly. It was also possible that they changed their strategy and took a detour to attack the empty Shahe Township!

At this moment, Jiang Xuan ordered Yan Liang to lead 200 soldiers and 800 soldiers to pursue the hidden places of the bandits. He also ordered Liu Zhong to lead 200 soldiers and 800 soldiers to return to Shahe Township to prepare for the accident. In addition, Tie Qian was also responsible for organizing the remaining hundreds of soldiers to stay in Taolin Pass!

Not to mention that Liu Zhong led people to rush back to Shahe Township to arrange a defensive fortification, just talking about Jiang Xuan and Yan Liang led a thousand people to the place where the bandits were originally hidden, the land was empty! But from the various footprints, horse hoof prints, dilapidated branches, and panic-bending grass, you can know that there were indeed a large number of soldiers here not long ago, who had stayed here.

The horses that Jiang Xuan and Yan Liang took a closer look, and they expected that the bandits were afraid to escape. However, according to the remaining traces, they did not walk for a long time. If they advanced at full speed, they should be able to catch up! Of course, we must prevent this from the bandits' conspiracy. Maybe they were ambushing them and waiting for Jiang Xuan and the others to come!

Of course, this is unlikely, because if you lose one-third of your power to design such a strategy, only fools will do this, especially when they are still short of manpower, which is even more impossible! Of course, this is Jiang Xuan's own guess. He doesn't expect Yan Liang to help him in strategy! Isn't that a fantasy!

"How is it, Sima Jiang, should I follow him?" Yan Liang said in an inward voice. It turned out that Yan Liang did not attach much importance to Sima Ke, who was not much older than him. Although Yan Liang respected scholars, Jiang Xuan was not yet weak. He had read some books. How many of them were there? If Jiang Cheng, the three elders of his father, would have admired him so much.

But Jiang Xuan couldn't do it. Of course, these were all the thoughts before today's battle. Now, Yan Liang admired him a little, and he couldn't help but mutter in his heart, is reading really that useful? Wen Chou is like this, and Jiang Xuan is like this. Although it may not be possible to plan and destroy the enemy thousands of miles away, it is so terrible, but it should not be underestimated. Unfortunately, he is a person who takes a nap when he mentions reading.

"Chasing! From the scene, the bandits have not gone far, and they have not even had time to disguise them. Besides, there is a look of Liu Jun in Shahe Township. I think even if the other three thousand bandits go to harass them, they can block them. There is no big problem with the iron guarding on the block. Why don't we take this opportunity to chase them? It's possible to wipe out one or two and collect some spoils!" Jiang Xuanluo pondered and analyzed one by one.

"Okay, just listen to Sima." Yan Liang's eyes lit up when he heard this and said in a urn.

Therefore, a team of thousands of people followed the thieves all the way after the traces of the bandits!

It took only one or two hours to see a red light several miles away. It was thought that the bandits thought that Jiang Xuan and others would not come, so they set up camp! After all, the moon was already in the middle of the sky! Whether it was the bandits or the villagers of Shahe, they were already a little tired.

Seeing this, Jiang Xuan raised his hand and signaled everyone to calm down. He explained it again. He led everyone, Yi Yan Liang, led the two hundred Taolin Army, and quietly touched it, trying to kill the bandits off guard.

Perhaps the bandits really never thought that Taolin Army would dare to pursue him. Although there were not many people like him, they were only 3,000! There was not much strict prevention. The peripheral sentries were all quietly solved by Yan Liang and others. Seeing that the thief camp was right in front of him, a villager was exposed when he was careless. The originally quiet night suddenly became noisy.

Seeing this, Yan Liang stopped hiding, and led his people to shout and rushed to the central camp! The rest of the people also drew their swords to kill! To be honest, these bandits really have no combat power! They could not stop the footsteps of the army led by Yan Liang! It was attacked again in the dark, and there were a hundred Shahe villagers cheering on the periphery, thinking that they were suspicious of the soldiers, and they didn't know how many people came!

This time, except for the three or five hundred guards of the general, who protected him and retreated while fighting, the other bandits had already fled one by one. Seeing this, Jiang Xuan did not fight with Yan Liang, but instead directed Shahe Township to gather the bandits, thinking that prisoners were a rare labor force, and perhaps they would still be the source of troops in the future!

Yan Liang led two hundred soldiers to kill the general unimpededly. The general was not afraid of Yan Liang's only one or two hundred men, but he looked at the leader and immediately changed his qualities. He knew Yan Liang's power and without saying a word, he led his personal soldiers to escape. How far he was to escape!

In this way, some of the bandits who had originally wanted to resist had seen their generals abandoning their sect and fleeing, and Yan Liang was as powerful as a ferocious god, and even threw the remaining resistance to the sky.

In this way, excluding the first seven or eight hundred people who fled and the five or six hundred bandits who broke through the siege, the remaining more than 1,500 bandits were all trapped in the hands of Jiang Xuan and Yan Liang! More than 200 enemies were annihilated and more than 1,300 prisoners were captured! It is not a great victory.

Then Shahe Township cheered, suppressing the dejected bandits and returning on the same route, which was no problem.
Chapter completed!
