"Oh, it turns out it's the remnant of Wu Sangui." Master Wang Jingji's words made everyone understand instantly.

"This group of rebels can still be brought up with such a background, so it is urgent to rehabilitate. After the rehabilitation is successful, maybe the court will not be held accountable, and the seat can be moved upwards." So, Zhao Lixiao, who had plans in his mind, looked at Li Yicun and asked earnestly:

"Mr. Li, since these rebels are the remnants of Wu Ni, it is urgent to quell the rebellion. What do you need our assistance?"

"Master, since it is to quell the rebellion, it is naturally necessary to have soldiers, horses, food and salary. I have some soldiers, but there are many traitors, which is not enough. I need the magistrate to help collect some civil and political help." Li Yicun stood up from his seat and said slowly.

"There is no problem with this." Zhao Lixiao nodded and agreed.

"There is also the issue of the mobilization of troops. Mobilizing troops requires documents from the Ministry of War, so in the mobilization, I hope that the prefect can write a letter to help explain the urgent need for rehabilitation, so that the court will not blame it." Li Yicun continued.

"Of course. I will gather people and strong for you as soon as the sky is dawn. I will also write a letter with you to explain the urgency of the situation." Zhao Lixiao agreed readily.

If it were other things, Zhao Lixiao would definitely try his best to shirk responsibility, and ignore it if he could. But this is someone rebellion in his jurisdiction. If he cannot suppress it quickly, he will not only be able to protect the black sand on his head, but also even if he is not good at it.

"Then I will thank the magistrate." Li Yicun bowed to Zhao Lixiao and thanked him, and then continued: "Since the problem of military and horses has been solved, the next problem is food and salary."

"The magistrate also knows that it will take more than a month to pass the documents to the capital even if the fast horse is passed on, and it will take more than a month to pass them down. After one round and one trip, I don't know how strong the thief will grow. What I mean is, can the magistrate advance the yamen taxes and make up for the court's food and salary?" Li Yicun asked.

"No problem. Since ancient times, people say that before the troops move, food and grass will come first. As the imperial court, I have no reason to let my Qing soldiers go to rehabilitate the war on hunger. As soon as the dawn, I asked Chen Dian, the household house, to arrange the money and food problem." Zhao Lixiao agreed readily.

"Okay, with the words of the prefect, our army will surely be able to pacify this rebellion quickly." Li Yicun promised loudly.

"In this way, it will be a blessing for Lord Li. In the Qing Dynasty, I, a pillar of Lord Li, can only be as stable as Mount Tai." Zhao Lixiao said in a compliment.

"The magistrate is too good. It is really a blessing for the court and a blessing for the people..." Li Yicun replied with a flattery.

...

Thanks to Zhao Lixiao's strong support, Li Yicun quickly got his own desire for troops, money and food. Within two days of quelling the rebellion, he left Qilin County to Malong County.

After Wu Sixi and others captured Malong County with a strategy, they immediately opened warehouses to scatter grain and recruited soldiers and horses. However, the population of Malong County was not prosperous, so there were naturally not many young and strong people coming to join.

Wu Sixi and his gang only recruited hundreds of people when they tried their best. With these people and Wu Sixi's own personnel, all of them were only about 1,400. Moreover, due to the tight time, many of Wu Sixi's team did not even have a weapon, so they could only use them with farm tools as weapons.

Although the number of Qing soldiers coming to quell the rebellion was not large, and the number of strong men collected was only more than 2,000. However, the Qing army had at least sufficient weapons and each had a weapon.

Judging from the information obtained by Wu Sixi, the Qing army was much better than Wu Sixi's Great Zhou army in terms of numbers and weapons, but Wu Sixi did not think he would lose.

This is a big gamble. If you win the bet, you can further expand your strength and you will be able to compete in the world in the future.

"The strength is always achieved."

Wu Sixi felt that the group of Qing troops attacking them could only defeat less than 800 officers and soldiers. As long as his more than 1,000 troops could defeat the officers and soldiers with one breath, the battle would be a victory. As for the remaining civilians and strong people in the Qing army, they were not worth worrying about.

After defeating these Qing troops, his Great Zhou army could quickly expand its territory to Qilin County, and then the entire Qujing and even the entire Yunnan.

Li Yicun didn't know Wu Sixi's thoughts, but he also believed that what this group of rebels could really fight was the initial hundreds of old bandits who dared to attack the county town. As long as they were killed, the remaining young and strong men who were wrapped in the brigades would be just to send military merits.

Since Wu Sixi visited the Qing army to come to encircle him early in the morning, Wu Sixi prepared early, thinking that he could ambush the Qing army on the way.

However, the temporary Great Zhou army did not know how to ambush at all, so the Great Zhou army ambushed on the mountain was accidentally discovered by the Qing army. Helpless Wu Sixi had to give up the ambush and set up his own formation before the Qing army launched an attack to compete with the Qing army with real strength.

The war between the two sides was about to begin. Although the army was lazy and often did not practice, it could barely form a formation after the drums sounded. On the other hand, Wu Sixi's "Big Zhou Army" did not look like an army at all, and the scattered look was like a group battle in the countryside.

At this time, there were not many words on both sides, and the sound of war drums on the battlefield was constantly rushing.

"Get war..."

The two sides were getting closer and closer, and with the shouts from the Great Zhou army, the war began.

In fact, it was not that Wu Sixi could not calm down, but that he was afraid that many of his Great Zhou army, who had not experienced war, would retreat directly under the sound of war drums of the Qing army. In order to prevent such a thing from happening, Wu Sixi could only choose to make a move and give it a try.

"Kill... Kill all the dogs, soldiers, kill all the Tartars..."

Accompanied by the shouts, the Great Zhou army rushed out like a flood, holding its own "weapons".

"Archer, leave the line..."

"shoot…"

Looking at the Great Zhou army rushing towards him, the Qing army hurriedly mobilized.

"Swish...swish..."

Dozens of bows instantly shot out a wave of arrow rain. As soon as this wave of arrow rain flew into the Great Zhou army, twenty or thirty of it were injured and thirty people were killed.

It’s also a good thing that this group of Qing army lacks artillery and does not have many bows and arrows. Otherwise, just a few long-range strikes by the Qing army would have to retreat if the Great Zhou army could not even contact the Qing army.

Although the Zhou army had suffered a lot of casualties due to the Qing army's shooting, they still gritted their teeth and rushed to the front of the Qing army.

Seeing the Great Zhou army that was about to rush to the front of the formation, Li Yicun sat steadily on the war horse and said mockingly:

"This group of thieves is really a bit bloody. But it's time for these mud legs to understand what war is."
