How could Yang Zhan care about his own safety? The Western Army was sent away at the front door, and the Qing Army was welcomed at the back door. He must find out the enemy's true and false status as soon as possible.

Guangyuan, Mianzhou, and Baoning were full of Manchu cavalry. These places that had been desolate by the Western Army were now bustling with new life.

Yang Zhan took the overland route, where it was easiest to become invisible in the deep mountains and dense forests. The only people traveling with him were Liu Jiankuan and Daban Ya. Two Taoist priests and a monkey drifted in and out of the ravines and jungles.

When he first served as the garrison in Guangyuan, he had traveled all over the mountains and rivers of northern Sichuan and was most familiar with the terrain here. He knew where there were dangerous mountains and passes and where there were villages.

After two days, he has figured out the situation of the Qing army. It can be said that the enemy is overwhelming! The leader is none other than General Jingyuan of the Qing Dynasty and Prince Hauge of Shuosu. Hauge is brave and good at fighting, powerful and good at strategy.

There are also brave and diligent generals like Obai.

As long as he saw the Qing army's camp clearly, Yang Zhan knew in his heart that he could defeat Zhang Xianzhong and his adopted sons, but he had no confidence in defeating Hauge.

In fact, this Hauge is really too powerful. When he went west, he conquered the whole of Shaanxi with three strikes, five strikes and two strikes, and wiped out the remaining forces of Li Zicheng. Now, just after entering Sichuan, he defeated the Daxi Army and occupied it easily.

Sichuan natural danger.

Yang Zhan secretly rejoiced. Fortunately, Li Zhiyong and Tie Jiaoban were sent to guard the post road early. As soon as Zhang Wenxiu boarded the ship on the Jialing River, they led the Fuhu Army to occupy Shunqing and block the Qing army. Otherwise, the Qing army would have been close to Chengdu.

Thinking of Chengdu, he felt a pain in his heart again. Plans had been made, and stone and wood materials had been prepared, and he was about to rebuild a capital city for the Shu Kingdom. Now, the Qing army has entered Sichuan, and wars are frequent, and he doesn't know how long it will take.

What month.

When the exploration was almost complete, they headed towards Shunqing. As soon as they reached a valley, a fast horse came from behind. The man on the horse fled in confusion. Yang Zhan, seeing Kuan, Big Banya flew up the tree, followed by a team

The soldiers of the Qing Dynasty were shouting and screaming, with blazing guns and iron arrows flying randomly.

Without thinking, Yang Zhan picked up his bow and arrows, and killed the Qing soldiers one by one, shooting the last one in the leg.

The Qing soldier had already fallen off his horse, but he struggled again and stumbled to grab the horse's reins. Jian Kuan jumped down from the tree and restrained him.

The man being chased looked back, got off his horse, bowed to them and said, "Thank you two masters for saving your life!"

Jian Kuan chuckled and said, "Don't call me Master yet. Who are you? Why are you being chased?"

That man was a tall and sturdy man, and judging by his behavior, he was also someone who had practiced martial arts.

"I am from Sifang Village in Fenghuang Mountain. I heard that Zhang Xianzhong's team left, so I wanted to go back to the village to see what happened. I didn't want to encounter these Qing soldiers!"

"Luo Weichi, are you alright?" Yang Zhan greeted with a smile.

The big man was startled and looked up at Yang Zhan. Then he recognized him and leaned over to bow again: "General Yang, I finally see you!"

Yang Zhan helped him up and introduced to Jiankuan: "This is Luo Weichi, my subordinate when I was in Shaanxi." Then he asked: "Why are you here?"

Luo Weiji sighed, "General Yang doesn't know something. After you left, Shaanxi fell into war. We fought several times with the bandits, but they all broke up. I don't know where to go. I heard that you

When I was in Guangyuan, I wanted to come and seek refuge with him. As soon as I entered Sichuan, I heard that Zhang Xianzhong had captured Chengdu, so I stayed in the village at Fenghuang Mountain."

Yang Zhan asked Jian Kuan to knock the prisoner unconscious and put him on the horse, and then said to Luo Weijie: "Let's go, take me to your village."

From Shunqing to Xichong, there are two big rivers, one called Xixi and the other Jingxi. There are many cottages between the two rivers. Most of these cottages are built on the mountains and are surrounded by abyss.

For many years, the mountain people have kept together and stocked up on grain to keep watch. Normally, everyone chooses fertile land for cultivation at the foot of the mountain. Once the police are called, they gather all the grain and clothes into the village and refuse to defend it. The village can accommodate ten thousand families, and there are many villages between them.

They are in contact with each other. There is a policeman in one village, and other villages come to support. This is the way residents in this area have dealt with bandits and robbers for many years.

There are more than a hundred such large and small cottages. Among them, the most powerful and dangerous cottage is Luo Weiqi's Sifang Village. Because he has served as an officer and is very good at fighting, dozens of surrounding villages obey his orders.

A while ago, Zhang Xianzhong called, and they really had no way to resist the hundreds of thousands of Western troops, so they were forced to abandon the stronghold and fled into the deep mountains and deep valleys.

The Daxi Army left and the Qing Army came. Luo Weijian wanted to come back and have a look, but unexpectedly encountered the Qing Army. The most unexpected and surprising thing was that he finally found Yang Zhan.

When the Daxi Army left, Zhang Xianzhong was already dead, so the stronghold was not destroyed. On the contrary, when they were stationed here, they reinforced the stronghold.

Luo Weijian invited Yang Zhan into Sifang Village and saw Kuan awakening the prisoner. Although the prisoner was dressed in Qing soldier uniform, he was a Han. It was precisely because of this that Yang Zhan kept him alive.

When the prisoner woke up, he naturally understood how to survive and told him everything he knew about the inside story of the Qing army.

It turned out that the reason why the Qing army did not continue to attack was because Yang Zhan had already sent troops to resist. They were competing for credit among themselves and were causing a lot of trouble.

The dispute is: Who shot Zhang Xianzhong to death?

It is impossible for Yabulan, he followed Dorgon. Haninga said it was him, and Obai said it was him. Hauge couldn't tell who it was, so when he reported it to the court, he simply said that he shot him to death himself.

Zhang Xianzhong broke through more than 130 camps of Zhang Xianzhong and beheaded tens of thousands of people.

The news of the victory reached the capital, and Emperor Shunzhi issued an edict to commend Hauge. Haninga and Obai were not happy, feeling that General Jingyuan had taken away their credit and was throwing a tantrum in the army.

Yang Zhan was secretly happy because he never thought that he could kill three birds with one stone by disguising himself as a Qing army and shooting Zhang Xianzhong.

Luo Weiji asked curiously: "Then who shot Zhang Xianzhong to death?"

The prisoner said: "The Qing soldiers are divided into several factions. We Han soldiers who followed Liu Jinzhong did not dare to speak. In fact, it is our commander-in-chief Liu Jinzhong!"

Seeing Kuan covering his mouth and snickering, he mocked, "How capable is your General Liu?"

Yang Zhan still didn't want to reveal the truth now, so he changed the subject and asked in detail about the other deployments of the Qing army. The prisoner could only tell a partial story, so Yang Zhan gave him a lesson and let him live.

Luo Weichi took them to visit the mountain stronghold and the fortifications built here by the Daxi Army.

At the end, Yang Zhan looked at Luo Weiqi with burning eyes and asked: "How is it? You came to find me at first, but you didn't find me. Now that we meet here, is it destined by God to let you take on this mission?

"

"What mission?"
