East Factory Governor

Chapter 493
Of course, Meng Wei was not looking for some demon sect, but Hong Chengchou.It's just that if Qin Shuhuai sent people to search everywhere from the beginning, it would inevitably arouse the suspicion of the Demon Cult.So he simply waited for the Demon Sect to come up to ask for someone, and then took advantage of the problem to send troops to find Hong Chengchou in a grand manner.

Wu Lie only said that Qin Shuhuai was cautious and refused to believe in our religion, so he smiled wryly, "Master Qin, you are really worrying too much! Okay, okay, then let someone go and see if you can find someone from my teaching." .”

Qin Shuhuai chuckled, and said, "Master Wu Banner, the lives of more than 4 soldiers are at stake. This Marquis should be more careful, and please don't be offended by Banner Master Wu. Don't worry, if you go for a while, I will wait until I confirm that you are not If the agreement is not violated, he will naturally be released."

Wu Lie had no choice but to return to his team and report the matter to Zhao Ju.

The brigade moved on.

Let's say that Meng Wei ran all the way with his horse whistle, passed by Pingxiang, and went straight to Gongjing.When we arrived at Gongjing, we found that the county seat of Gongjing was under martial law.

This shows that Hong Chengchou did not receive news from Zhao Wu'er and the Xiao Chengjing player, but just arrived at Gongjing as agreed last night.

Meng Wei hurriedly took out his token and identity document and handed them over to the defenders. The defenders immediately went in to inform Hong Chengchou after seeing it.

Hong Chengchou quickly brought someone out himself. He had seen Meng Wei before, so he recognized him from a distance.

Meng Wei didn't show courtesy to Hong Chengchou either, and immediately said after meeting, "Lord Hong, Lord Hou ordered you to lead troops to lie in ambush in this area, and soon the [-] troops of the Devil's Cult will come over!"

When Hong Chengchou heard this, he immediately said, "Okay! This officer will arrange it now. General Meng, please enter the county government office, and work with this officer to see where the ambush is suitable."

Meng Wei had to wait for Hong Chengchou to decide on the location of the ambush before going back to report to Qin Shuhuai, so he said without hesitation, "Well, let's go in quickly."

The two entered the county government office, compared the map, and after a brief discussion, they quickly determined the best ambush location, which was a place called "Silinggou" ten miles west of Gongjing.

After confirming, Meng Wei immediately ran back without stopping.

At about three o'clock in the morning, Qin Shuhuai led the army to Liangping, which was more than fifty miles away from Lanzhou City.

Along the way, Wu Lie came to ask several times, but Qin Shuhuai prevaricated each time with various reasons.

When they arrived in Liangping, the Demon Sect couldn't take it anymore and was about to issue an ultimatum to Qin Shuhuai.However, Qin Shuhuai, uncharacteristically, stopped on his own initiative, expressing that he wanted to hand over the hostages.

Soon, Qin Shuhuai returned Zhao Wuhen, the left protector of the Devil Sect, to the Devil Sect.The reason why he kept the great apostle instead of Zhao Wuhen, who had a higher status, was because he felt that the great apostle had a higher level of cultivation than Zhao Wuhen.

So the great apostle must die!
Before leaving, Zhao Wuhen glanced at Qin Shuhuai with a sinister look.

Qin Shuhuai didn't take it seriously, and with a smile on his face, he cupped his fists at Zhao Wuhen and said, "Protector Zhao, we will meet later!"

After the Demon Sect welcomed Zhao Wuhen back, he immediately untied him and released his acupuncture points.Seeing that Zhao Wuhen was not seriously injured, he breathed a sigh of relief.

The efficacy of Shixiang Ruanjin Powder lasted for three hours. At this time, Zhao Wuhen's true energy had not yet recovered, and it was still only [-]% of the original energy, but he was still traveling with the army.

The team moved on.

Not long after, Meng Wei came back.

Walking to Qin Shuhuai's side, he lowered his voice and said, "Master Hou, as expected, Hong Chengchou has not received any news. It must be that Zhao Wu'er and the others were killed."

Qin Shuhuai's heart sank. Although he hadn't seen these two people a few times, he still felt distressed.

Meng Wei continued, "However, my subordinates found Hong Chengchou in Gongjing, and made an agreement with him to lay an ambush in Silinggou, west of Gongjing. Let's go along the current road and just pass there."

Qin Shuhuai nodded slightly, indicating that he knew.

Continue to move forward, about two quarters of an hour later, Wu Lie came to remind him again.

"Master Qin, you have already left the city for sixty miles, you should return the great apostle to us."

Qin Shuhuai said with a dark face, "It's only been a while, why are you asking for someone again? What kind of tricks are you playing?"

"Master Qin, it's obvious that you have been procrastinating, so why are you blaming us again? As the saying goes, a man stands up to the heavens and stands up to the earth, and keeps his word. Master Qin is known as the leader of the martial arts and is a world-renowned hero. Could it be that he wants to go back on his word?" Wu Lie said fiercely road.

Qin Shuhuai smiled like a rascal, "Master Wu, did you say that sixty miles is already sixty miles? Did you measure it with a ruler along the way?"

"This..." Wu Lie was speechless for a moment.

Qin Shuhuai said without negotiating, "Don't worry, my task is to take the brothers away safely. Go forward for a while, and I will let you teach the great apostle."

Wu Lie had no choice but to go back and report to Zhao Wuhen again.

Going forward, it was within a range of sixty miles, which was beyond the bottom line of the Demon Cult.

Zhao Wuhen thought for a while and said, "Let them go another ten miles. If they still refuse to let him go, we have no choice but to do something very difficult. I think the apostle will forgive us."

Everyone in the Demon Cult was slightly surprised when they heard this.

At this time, Qin Shuhuai called Meng Wei and whispered some instructions to him. Meng Wei nodded and immediately patted his horse to the front of the team.

The team soon arrived at Silinggou.

The so-called Silinggou, as the name suggests, is a depression surrounded by four mountains, and the road they walked happened to pass through the four mountains.

With an army of [-], Hong Chengchou ambushed in the middle of the four mountains.

Watching the fire dragon composed of countless torches slowly pass under it, Hong Chengchou lightly pressed the saber at his waist, with a hint of excitement on his face.

Ever since the Devil's Cult raised its troops, it has swept through Gansu at a rapid pace, and the army has no victories so far.However, if the officers and soldiers are not in order tonight, you can win a big victory!

With such a great victory, it is bound to deal a severe blow to the Demon Cult's arrogance and temporarily stop the Demon Cult's offensive, so that their threat to Shaanxi will be much smaller.

Hong Chengchou was originally worried that the official army in Lanzhou City would not be able to withdraw, and that the official army would be forced to fight the Demon Cult in a decisive battle near Lanzhou City.Once the decisive battle begins, the officers and soldiers are bound to be in danger.If the army is defeated, the Demon Sect will surely sweep Shaanxi together with Gao Yingxiang, and he, the governor of Shaanxi, will be in a state of distress.

But he never expected that the situation in Lanzhou City would undergo such a drastic change in just a few days.This miraculous Lord Qin Hou brought out the officers and soldiers in the city safe and sound, and even brought a piece of fat with him!
If the Demon Sect's 11 troops can be eaten, the Devil's Sect's eastward offensive will definitely suffer a huge blow!Moreover, as long as the government troops in Lanzhou City withdraw to Guyuan and Pingliang, they will be able to form a barrier to the east of Shaanxi together with the [-] martial arts allied forces.

As long as the Demon Cult doesn't come, he can start to wipe out Gao Yingxiang's tribe first.In this way, the situation in Shaanxi can be settled!

Settling Shaanxi, and then counterattacking Gansu, the mere tens of thousands of Demon Cults have nothing to fear!
The talented Hong Chengchou knows the significance of this ambush better than anyone else.At this moment, on his calm and calm face, a pair of dark eyes were shining brightly.

The Ming army consisted of 5000 people, arranged in three parallel rows, and the team was six to seven kilometers long.The 5000 members of the Demon Cult behind it are two to three kilometers long.

Meng Wei passed Qin Shuhuai's order to Cao Wenzhao. Although Cao Wenzhao was the commander in chief and commanded all the troops, he already regarded Qin Shuhuai as the supreme commander, and immediately arranged for the troops to follow suit.

The soldiers of the Ming army in front of the team immediately divided into two groups when they just entered Silinggou, and ambush on the left and right sides of the road respectively.

The soldiers of the Ming army behind them followed suit and ambushed one by one along both sides of the road.

Therefore, it seems that the team is still moving forward without haste, but in fact, the Ming army in front has already ambushed on both sides of the road.

All of this happened quietly in the dark a few kilometers away, and the Demon Cult soldiers were all behind the Ming army, so naturally there was no way of knowing.

Some Demon Sect soldiers wanted to rush to the front of the Ming army before, but they were asked by Qin Shuhuai on the spot if the Demon Sect wanted to attack the Ming army back and forth?He also put on a threatening posture that he was about to kill the hostages and start a war with the Demon Cult.The Devil's Cult naturally didn't want to intensify the conflict, so they had to give up.In order to keep the plan secret, Qin Shuhuai also sent Meng Wei, Zhiren, Wang Datong, Shang Shui, Sun Bai, Chang Wuji and other experts to investigate secretly, to strictly prevent some experts from the Demon Cult from running to the front of the team.However, the Demon Sect knew Qin Shuhuai's shrewdness, and was afraid that the apostle would be killed if he played tricks, so he kept his word and didn't make any small moves—except that before they set off, they secretly turned a thousand Rui Jin Banners into ordinary soldiers appearance, mixed into the team.

In the Devil's Cult team, Zhao Wuhen has naturally taken over the highest command of the team.

Seeing that he had already left the city for more than 70 miles, he found Jin Gang and gave him some instructions in a cold tone.

Jin Gang immediately rolled his eyes, looking surprised and unable to refute.

Both sides have their own calculations, and are about to showdown.
