"Can we enter or not?" Di Qing led everyone to two miles in front of the forest and asked, looking at the dense forest in front of him.

Jiang Ning slowly shook his head: "No."

"Why don't you advance? If you don't take advantage of the victory and annihilate them all, you will miss a great achievement." A slightly fat man stood on a high horse with a sword at his waist.

This person is the general and deputy general of Shandong Prefecture. Cao Rongsheng is a man who is greedy for merit. Although he has some martial arts skills, there is still a big gap between him and Di Qing and others. His official position is from the fourth rank military general, and his official position is higher than Di Qing's.

, lower than Jiangning.

A few days ago, letters from Di Qing and the General's Office and the Prefect's Office were delivered to the two adults. Both of them suffered losses at the hands of Liangshan, not to mention the loss of troops and the loss of generals, and it was also difficult for the court to communicate with each other. However, this time Di Qing used...

The implication of the letter from the Ministry of War is that we will do the hard work, you just need to build up your momentum and take the credit. This is also a sign of great love for the two adults on your right.

If we don't send troops, the right minister has moved out, and the letter from the Ministry of War is used. The relationship between the two is naturally self-evident. Di Qing's name is still acceptable among military generals. After all, he has been at the border for many years.

Many Xiaosheng are more or less related to Di Qing. After going back and forth, Di Qing is quite famous among the generals. In addition, he has been at the border for many years and has a somewhat gangster air about him, which makes people intimidated.

Therefore, Di Qing asked the Shandong government for help. There was no reason for them to ignore the situation. If the matter went to the right minister, no one would look good. However, he did not want to provoke the Liangshan thieves, so for a while he thought of finding someone to lead him.

Just go and have a look.

This Cao Rongsheng wanted to climb up the ranks. He had been working as a fourth-grade lieutenant general for several years, but he had been unable to be promoted due to lack of military exploits.

Di Qing took action, and a small victory was still guaranteed. After thinking about it, he went to his lover again and poured out his bitter experience. Who would have expected that the brothel's best friend urged Cao Rongsheng to send troops. This opportunity cannot be missed, and it will never come back. I don't know when it will be possible.

With such a good opportunity, it would be hard to point at the Ministry of War and Shandong Prefecture.

Cao Rongsheng then led 5,000 soldiers and horses, and two generals traveled all night. Finally, at dawn today, he arrived at the riverside and met up with Di Qing, who was preparing to pursue him. After learning that Jiang Ning was already in the third rank, he felt even more excited.

He is eager to achieve great results, but the number of thieves in the forest is only 3,000, so what kind of trouble can they cause?

Jiang Ning's words ruined his future. How could Cao Rongsheng not be anxious?

But I heard Jiang Ning say: "If birds don't enter the forest, there must be an ambush in the forest. Behind the forest is a mountain. They let us go in. If they attack with fire, none of us can get out. Even without attacking with fire, we will be surrounded on all sides."

, cut us off at the middle, and our chances of winning are not good. Entering will be a dead end."

"Then you tell me, if you don't go into the forest, how can you arrest people?" Cao Rongsheng asked with a frown.

Jiang Ning chuckled: "Didn't I just say that using fire to attack here is an excellent choice."

Jiang Ning pointed to the back mountain and said: "Burn them from here and force them up the mountain. We will lay an ambush on the mountain and wait for them to go up the mountain. If anyone runs back from the fire, just shoot them to death with bows and arrows."

"I will take people there..." Cao Rongsheng took the lead and led people around the forest towards the back mountain.

Jiang Ning smiled bitterly and said: "If you are so eager to seek merit, I am afraid that the Liangshan bandits will catch you. I also asked General Di to send a thousand men and horses to ambush behind the mountain to avoid being broken through."

Di Qing nodded. It was indeed rare to see a local army that was so actively trying to make contributions. He ordered a thousand men and horses, handed the remaining thousand to Jiang Ning, and personally led the team towards Houshan Rao.

passed.

Jiang Ning gave an order, and a thousand men were divided into three teams and burned the mountain in the wind.

This mountain col, walking north is a hillside of more than 100 meters. The dense forest on the mountain blocks the sky and the sun, and the trees are about three feet high. It is an excellent place for an ambush. The mountain wind blows towards the mountain, although there are occasional wind blows.

Change, but Jiang Ning keeps people at a certain distance from the fire spot, so it doesn't matter.

Wu Song led his people back from the front, and the people behind him were all disgraced. When Zhu Wu saw this, he also saw raging black smoke rising into the sky, and his face was slightly shocked: "This Jiang Ning actually used fire to attack?"

"This guy is quite vicious. He didn't even take a look at his face and just set fire to the mountain." Wu Song said angrily: "If there was a fight, I would definitely chop off this guy's head. Unfortunately, the fire was too strong and came from all directions. Behind the fire there were people.

The officers and soldiers were armed with bows and crossbows and could not break through, so they hurriedly brought people back to join you brothers."

Lin Zhong frowned and said: "In this case, we can only go back to the mountains. I don't know where brothers Yan Qing and Ou Peng are?"

"Calculating the time, we should be arriving at the back mountain soon, but this birthday, damn..." Zhu Wu, who had always been extremely calm, couldn't help but curse at this moment.

Guan Sheng said, "That's all we can do now. The birth plan must have been transferred by them in advance, but we don't know it yet. The top priority is to transport these birthday plans back. Although it was unsuccessful, it was not nothing.

I’ll make plans after I get back.”

Chai Jin also said: "Yes, since I know that Hangzhou Jiangning was the one who was causing the obstruction, I will report it to my brother Ming Gongming after I return. When I fell, I personally led my troops to sneak into the city of Hangzhou and kill Jiangning's family without leaving any trace, so as to relieve the hatred in my heart."

.”

Zhu Wudao: "Evacuate first. After a while, the fire will come up and there will be no way out. I bother Coach Lin to be the vanguard and close the general's palace behind. If they don't enter the forest, there is nothing we can do. The risk of going out is too great. It is a small matter for the official ship to be robbed."

, but there is Hua Yourong who is wanted by the imperial court. After Shandong Mansion knows about it, they will definitely send reinforcements to protect it. Maybe there are reinforcements outside now, so withdraw..."

Zhu Wu was unwilling to do anything, but at the moment there was nothing he could do. Di Qing and Jiang Ning were approaching fiercely. He thought they were in the dark, but he didn't expect that the mantis was catching the cicada and the oriole was behind them, but they were pecked by the eagle and dog.

I was thinking of making a comeback, but if the other party used a chain trick, all the brothers who were brought down the mountain would probably never come back. To be on the safe side, I had better make plans after returning.

The group of people lost their luggage, packed their only three carriages, and watched the thick smoke billowing from the bottom of the mountain, heading towards the back mountain.

There is a shortcut between the slopes of the two mountains, and mountain fires roar from both sides. Lin Chong leads the way, followed by Wu Song, Zhu Wu, and Chai Jin. Li Jun and Zhang Shun escort the seriously injured Li Gun, and Guan Sheng is behind.

, a group of people walked along both sides of the mountain road, but did not appear on the mountain road.

According to Zhu Wu, although the mountain col between these two peaks is not large and the slope is not suitable for an ambush, it must be guarded against. After all, they have been resting in the forest for two hours, and anything could happen.

"High official, where do you think we went wrong? This is the first time that we have suffered such heavy losses since my brother Gongming and the military advisor took action. Is it possible that Jiang Ning is as powerful as they said?" said the political bastard Li Jianglong.

hansome.

Chai Jin looked around and said as he walked: "I didn't believe it at first. On this trip, even though I was careful every step of the way, Brother Yi didn't reveal any flaws on the boat, but Jiang Ning happened to recognize Brother Yi. For the first time

It's really weird to call the prodigal son Yan Qing by his name when they meet. If not, they wouldn't have separated the birth date and made preparations in advance. This Jiang Ning does have two tricks."

"However, the woman next to him is really powerful. She took two shots. The first time she blocked Li Kui, and the second time she took down Brother Huang Xin..."

"It's not good, it's not good..." Li Jun hadn't finished speaking. If he could take this woman back as a wife, it would be even more powerful, but he heard someone shouting from the front: "It's not good."
