() Half an hour later, Liang Yong set out with 130 soldiers and started to fight.

Guo Xiu and Qingwu are in charge of the manor, and they lead 300 women to clean the battlefield. It is a cruel thing to let the delicate women deal with these corpses, but Liang Yong has no choice. Now there is not enough manpower, so he only He could leave ten soldiers who had not recovered from their injuries to help them.

It took less than an hour to catch up with DuPont. At this time, DuPont had already met with the large army, and thousands of people gathered on a hillside, with tight camps and smoke rising in the surrounding woods. It was DuPont's main force ambushing there. They were waiting for the main force of the People's Army and preparing to come for a counter-encirclement. They just waited for a day, but did not wait for the main force of the People's Army.

Not only did DuPont find himself fooled and curse in anger. At this time, Liang Yong stood on the top of the mountain in the distance and observed here, but he was also secretly anxious. Why didn't there be any movement? If DuPont's large army could not be mobilized and was forced to continue fighting hard, it was not himself. What I want is a thousand jing savvy troops, with complete baggage, and the People's Army will not have an advantage in fighting head-on, and even if they can win, it will be a tragic victory.

Shortly after DuPont entered the tent, he ordered the flag to wave, and the army lying in the woods continued to show themselves, gathered in the camp, and attacked the manor again.

Liang frowned even deeper. If the enemy continued to attack the manor, he had to change his strategy, quickly withdraw the manor, arrange for everyone to retreat, and after a day and night of hard fighting, the remaining people of the People's Army would definitely not be able to stop the attack of DuPont's army. He could only retreat into the mountains in advance to hide. Liang Yong could not predict how the battle would develop later, but it was certain that the battle would be extremely difficult.

Just then, dust was flying in the distance, and a war horse was racing towards him. It was a spy from the Knights. The spy rushed into the camp with a flag and shouted directly into the big tent. Seeing that there was an emergency military report, Liang But I was happy to see it. The direction of the spy should be related to his plan.

"Report." The spy rushed into the tent and knelt in front of DuPont and shouted.

"What's the situation? Tell me quickly." DuPont asked in surprise.

"The Governor General is not good. Our manor is attacked. Two thousand rebels are attacking our manor. When Bei Shi comes back, there are still tens of thousands of rebels who have reinforced him..." The spy answered urgently.

"What." DuPont exclaimed, his face became extremely ugly. The manor mentioned by the spy was not the manor that Liang Yong did, but DuPont's nest in the suburbs on the other side of the city. It was his largest and most luxurious manor on Qizhou Island. For tens of thousands of years, nearly half of his wealth was hidden, and he was robbed by the rebels. He would have no chance to turn around if he lost the wealth inside.

Although he was very glorious on Qizhou Island, these also require huge financial resources as support. Without the continuous supply of money to the Holy Church, his position as the governor has long been replaced by others.

"Did they capture the manor?" DuPont asked anxiously.

"Not yet. Although these rebels are large in number, they are not strong and have no powerful weapons. When I came to report the news, they were still holding on." The spy replied.

This made DuPont relieved and quickly sent an order: "All the soldiers of the Knights obeyed the order and packed their bags and rushed to DuPont Manor to help." Now he was not in the mood to continue to suppress the bandits and had to lead his army back to protect the manor.

The deputy general asked in confusion: "Where did these rebels come from? Have you seen clearly?"

"You still need to ask, it must be the main force of the enemy who was unable to attack us yesterday, such a cunning man." DuPont cursed.

The spy also nodded and said, "I see a golden dragon embroidered on their banner, shouting long live the People's Army, and they should be the assistant of the People's Army."

The deputy general was no longer confused and hurriedly ran out to organize the army to retreat urgently. However, this time DuPont no longer dared to advance recklessly, but instead asked the deputy general to be fully responsible and sent the jingling knights to cruise around. The army and logistics personnel retreated at the same time. I would rather delay more time than ensure the overall combat effectiveness of the army. At the same time, I sent a large number of spies to inquire about the enemy situation and return to the manor to deliver letters so that my family can keep them.

The army retreated slowly, and the beam on the top of the mountain was determined by determining the direction of the DuPont army's withdrawal. It was to move faster, immediately lead the soldiers to disappear from the back of the ridge, march quickly to the planned destination, they must The DuPont army arrived before, which was different from taking a shortcut just now. At this time, they had to avoid the DuPont army on the road, but instead needed to take a detour, which was further away than the DuPont army.

The distance is longer and can only be compensated by fast marching. This is a severe test for the soldiers' physical strength. They have fought for a day and a night, and the rest time in between is no more than an hour. They consume a lot of physical strength. It is completely super strong to be able to persist now. The will.

It was still yesterday evening, the undercurrents among the people of Qizhou Port became public. DuPont led the army to the suburbs to suppress bandits. Everyone knows that the news conveyed through special channels is just like people going to the battlefield to watch the battle with their own eyes. Every setback and failure of the army, in less than an hour, the city will receive news, which will make people happy and hopeful.

At night, it was reported that the main force of the People's Army was marching into the city and liberating the city. People were so excited that they couldn't sleep and ran around to tell each other.

But in the second half of the night, I got reliable news that the main force of the People's Army had already passed by the city and was preparing to attack DuPont's old nest DuPont Manor. Moreover, there were People's Army soldiers in military uniforms appeared on the streets to organize the young and middle-aged people in the city, not to let everyone do it. Participating in the battle, let everyone carry their property, and promise to get 20% of the property they bring back, which is a great thing that has no capital and no profit.

Without fighting for the war, we could share the fruits of victory in the war. Countless people immediately signed up enthusiastically. Not only young and middle-aged people, but also old men and women raised their hands to participate, and soon more than 100,000 people gathered.

After some strict selection, nearly 80,000 young and middle-aged men carried shoulder poles and marched towards DuPont Manor. Their speed was not fast. It was already the next morning when they left the city. It was not surprising that they were discovered by the spies from the Knights. The spies didn't know that they were not going to fight, but just moving their property, and they were also scared to death as reinforcements from the civilian army.

They were not moving fast, and they did not go along the avenue to DuPont Manor. After leaving the city, the soldiers leading the way led the troops to advance to the mountains. According to their statement, the battle ahead is still continuing, so everyone can get close to DuPont Manor. Hidden in the mountains, so that everyone will not get involved in the battle, but will be able to enter the battlefield as soon as possible, collect money and play the role of transporting the army at the end of the battle.
