Emperor Ming Dynasty

Chapter 83 Everything is a Misunderstanding

Ningqiang Prefecture, as the name suggests, is the place where the Qiang people gather.

It belongs to Hanzhong Prefecture. Although it is called a state, it is actually a county. For details, please refer to county-level cities.

And because there is Yangping Pass here, which locks the throat of the local government, Ningqiang Guards were set up to suppress the local government.

Zhao Guangyuan commanded thousands of local Han soldiers and horses. At this pass, merchants traveled from south to north, which can be said to have reaped the benefits.

Because he has a good father, he is almost domineering.

In the evening, news came from Nanzheng that a group of officers and soldiers had seized the city.

"Where is this going?"

Zhao Guangyuan was rather annoyed: "The government army has occupied Hanzhong City, isn't this one of our own? How do you call it a preemption?"

However, in response to the request of Xianing and Qiang Zhizhou, they had to guard the pass and guard the city.

Not long after, he saw hundreds of cavalry galloping towards them.

"Where are the cavalry in Hanzhong?"

Zhao Guangyuan was dumbfounded. How could he fight this? Thousands of infantry would die in front of the cavalry.

So, they just let the cavalry wreak havoc in front of them.

"Cut off the external road of Yangping Pass, and no one is allowed to cross it alone."

Li Jingwu straightened his chest and said confidently.

He has received a military order, and he must surround Yangping Pass to prevent all news exchanges.

"But, General, we can't get through on horseback!"

The vice president beside him said helplessly: "A horse can't run up the hillside, and it can't block the two ends. Besides, the Jialing River is next to it."

"Ok?"

Li Jingwu couldn't help being taken aback when he heard the words, he took a closer look and found that it was indeed the case.

Yangping Pass is bordered by the Qinling Mountains in the north, Micang Mountain and Daba Mountain in the south, leaning against the Jialing River,
Although the mountain is not too steep, it is difficult to cross it with only cavalry.

It's impossible to dismount and walk, right?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but frown: "From this point of view, haven't I failed the general's expectations again?"

Once in Fengxian County, and now disappointed again, is this okay?

For a moment, his chest was congested.

Riding on the horse, he looked aimlessly, and after a while, he found that not far away, Ningqiang Prefecture was standing there alone.

"Where is Ning Qiang?"

"Yes." The guide said helplessly.

"Okay, then why go to Ning Qiang?"

Li Jingwu was overjoyed and waved his whip.

"Mr. Qian, if you occupy Ningqiang, you won't be able to block Yangping Pass!"

"Your brain is full of mud."

Li Jingwu couldn't help showing off: "The establishment of Ningqiang Guard is not only for Yangping Pass, but also for Ningqiang City."

"Once Ningqiang City is lost, he, the commander, will also fail in his duties, and dismissal is inevitable."

As he said that, he led hundreds of cavalrymen and rushed to Ningqiang City unexpectedly.

Yes, even though the city of Ningqiang is small, there is nothing they can do with the cavalry.

Li Jingwu didn't care.

Like most Qin Jun, he is also from Yulin and knows the power of poverty.

In order to make a living, the soldiers of the three sides can join the Chuang army to fight against the imperial court, and naturally, they will also join the Qin army to suppress the rebellion.

Surrounded by mountains in Ning and Qiang Prefecture, there is only a little cultivated land in the river beach area and in the dams between the mountains.

"Did you see that group of thatched huts? That's where the trackers live."

Li Jingwu is a rough man, he has his own way, so he couldn't help saying coldly: "Tell them, as long as you put on a show at the gate of the city, I will give them a tael of silver."

"In a short while, there will be hundreds or even thousands of people."

Sure enough, under the threat of hundreds of cavalry and the temptation of money, the trackers couldn't resist, so they could only "surround" Ningqiang City with sticks.

Zhizhou in the city is naturally aware of this fake trick, but Yangping Pass in the distance is not.

Taking a look, seeing that Ningqiang City was besieged, Zhao Guangyuan became anxious for a moment:

"There are only a few hundred people in the city, how can we hold it!"

He was impatient, like an ant on a hot pan.

If Ningqiang City fell, he, the commander, would definitely be punished for dereliction of duty.

He wanted to attack, but he was afraid of being ambushed.

It can be said that the front is afraid of wolves, and the back is afraid of tigers.

"Forget it, if I lose Yangping Pass, I will be dismissed at worst, but if Ningqiang City is lost and Zhizhou accidentally dies, I will really be doomed."

If the civil servants currently in power lose their lives due to their own fault, it will not be as simple as dismissal.

In an instant, he made up his mind to leave a thousand people to guard the city, and personally lead two thousand infantry to break the siege of Ning and Qiangzhou.

"Finally out."

Li Jingwu couldn't help but be overjoyed when he saw Yangpingguan dispatching troops: "I am brave and resourceful, who dares to say otherwise?"

"These soldiers in the guards are flamboyant, I understand it clearly,"

Although he had been a recruiter for several years, he was from the Yulin Guard, so he knew a lot about the officers of the Guard, and he was responsible for guarding the land, so he couldn't get rid of it.

"Boys, charge me, these two-legged toads can only be captured by us, hahaha!"

In an instant, hundreds of riders were moving like the wind, huffing and heading straight.

As soon as Zhao Guangyuan arrived halfway, he saw the pretentious trackers, and was instantly furious: "Thief your mother, how dare you bully me."

Unfortunately, it was too late at this time, and the horse's head of the cavalry was faintly visible.

……

It was already the second day when Zhu Yixi led the infantry to Ningqiang city.

He was in the city and met Zhao Guangyuan, commander of the Ningqiang Guard.

"General, I finally lived up to your expectations. I won Yangping Pass, and by the way, Ningqiang Prefecture."

Li Jingwu straightened his chest, smiled all over his face, and his eyebrows almost jumped out.

"Okay, I will give you a credit."

This time, Zhu Yixi was quite impressed with Li Jingwu.

He originally thought that Li Jingwu, like Li Jizu, belonged to the reckless category, except that one was a cavalry soldier and the other was an infantry soldier.

I never thought that Li Jingwu is rough and fine, like a character like Zhang Fei.

However, he thought about it immediately, after all, Li Jingwu did not accept him overnight. It is understandable for him to see all directions, listen to all directions, and have a delicate mind.

"It seems that Li Jingwu can be cultivated."

Zhu Yixi thought about it, and then walked away quickly.

Seeing Zhao Guangyuan who was tied up, Zhu Yixi pretended to be surprised and said, "How can you treat Brother Zhao like this?"

Saying that, in the surprise of the latter, Zhu Yixi cut the rope directly, and said with shame on his face:
"Brother Zhao, everything is a misunderstanding. You see, it's all my fault that I didn't explain clearly, which caused you to be so wronged."

Zhao Guangyuan was stunned, he felt a little overwhelmed.

What exactly is going on?

"I was sent by Governor Sun to go to Hanzhong and northern Sichuan to suppress bandits. This time, I also wanted you to help defend me. I never thought that there would be a fight. It's a crime, a crime..."

Saying that, Zhu Yixi patted his clothes to remove the invisible dust, forced him to sit down, and explained carefully.

After a while, Zhao Guangyuan suddenly realized that they were really allies.

"It's just that, Zhu Guerzilla, there are no bandits in Hanzhong?"

Zhao Guangyuan was puzzled again.

　Make a small wish: fans break through [-]...
