Li Lingrui held the table, with a complicated expression on his face.
When he received Li Lingxuan's transfer order and learned that he was going to take control of the Southern Expedition Army camp, Li Lingrui was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night.
He knew that Li Lingxuan was preparing to train him and let him take control of the military.
After taking over the Southern Expedition Army, Li Lingrui was also full of confidence and vowed in his heart to fight a good battle.
Not only for himself, but also for his emperor brother.
Therefore, he did not launch an attack immediately after taking over the Southern Expedition Army. Instead, he spent a lot of effort to replace the main positions with his own people.
After doing this, Li Lingrui still didn't take action.
Many staff members thought that Li Lingrui was waiting for the heavy crossbows and catapults to be in place.
Only the person in charge of intelligence who knew him best knew that what Li Lingrui was waiting for was not only a catapult and a heavy crossbow, but also a golden sword.
Because Jin Feng is growing so fast, if you don't kill Jin Feng, just kill the tens of thousands of Shu troops who are facing each other, it will not affect Jin Feng's foundation at all.
Therefore, this time Li Lingxuan secretly told Li Lingrui that the first goal of the Southern Expedition was to kill Jin Feng.
But what Li Lingrui didn't expect was that before he arrived at the Southern Expedition Camp, Jin Feng actually went to Yuguan City.
This made Li Lingrui not know what to do.
He can't go to Yuguan City to hunt down Jin Feng, right?
Regardless of whether he has the courage or not, he can't catch up.
Therefore, Li Lingrui kept putting pressure on the Shu army, but kept delaying.
Otherwise, he was afraid that with his own order, the Southern Expeditionary Army would directly destroy the Shu army, and Jin Feng would not dare to come. At that time, he would have no choice but to lead the Southern Expeditionary Army to Sichuan and Shu to find Jin Feng.
However, Dangxiang's southern expedition was mainly composed of cavalry, and Sichuan and Shu were mountainous, so Dangxiang's troops would be unable to move even when they arrived in Sichuan.
What's more, now that Jin Feng's foundation has been established, the entire Sichuan and Shu are completely controlled by him and the Ninth Princess, Qing Xinyao. It is much more difficult to defeat Jin Feng in Sichuan than in Xizhou!
So Li Lingrui has been waiting for Jin Feng to come over.
I originally thought that Jin Feng would not be able to return from Yuguan City until next spring at the earliest, but within a month, Jin Feng came back and rushed to Xizhou as soon as possible.
Li Lingrui was so excited when he heard the news that he immediately ordered the Black Cloud tribe to ambush Jin Feng.
Who knows, the Black Cloud Tribe failed!
And before he could get over the shadow of the defeat of the Black Cloud Tribe, Jin Feng sent people to rob the transport team again, forcing him to exchange hostages.
Not only Jin Feng understands conspiracy, but Li Lingrui also understands it.
When you have an absolute advantage, crushing it openly is more effective than any strategy.
So Li Lingrui decided that if Jin Feng didn't take action last night and today, he would launch a general offensive tomorrow. Even if it cost people's lives, Li Lingrui would crush the Shu army camp and capture Jin Feng alive!
But who knew that before he could take action, Jin Feng had already run away...
At this moment, Li Lingrui's heart was filled with frustration.
Although he had never met Jin Feng, he suffered several defeats at the hands of Jin Feng.
The person in charge of the intelligence noticed that Li Lingrui had a frustrated expression on his face. He was afraid that he would be beaten to the point of collapse, so he quickly changed the subject and asked: "Your Majesty, although Jin Feng ran away, there should still be many people in the Shu army camp. Do you want to
Did you send someone to arrest them?"
Hearing this, Li Lingrui raised his head and glanced at the person in charge of the intelligence, and then replied: "Of course we have to arrest them, but since Jin Feng asked them to stay, he must be prepared. Be careful when passing by!"
"yes!"
"In addition, we will send people to inquire around the Brass Valley. I want to know all the conditions of the Brass Valley!" Bayi Chinese website
"Yes!" The person in charge of intelligence bowed in response and backed away from the tent.
Li Lingrui turned around and continued to stare at the brass ditch on the map, his eyebrows furrowed into a knot.
The current situation gave him a feeling of dilemma.
Li Lingrui knew that the less impulsive it was at this time, so he forced himself to calm down and decided to think clearly before taking action.
…
From the south gate of Dangxiang's camp, thousands of cavalry roared out and headed straight for the Shu army's camp.
Jin Feng knew that a large-scale retreat of tens of thousands of people could not completely escape Li Lingrui's eyes and ears, so before leaving, he specifically told the remaining bodyguards that he would retreat immediately if he found that something was wrong.
On the observation deck of the Shu army camp, the scouts had been staring at Dangxiang's camp with binoculars. As soon as Dangxiang's soldiers and horses rushed out of the camp, the scouts discovered it.
"Stop acting, the party members found out, run away!"
The scout fired two loud arrows into the air, turned around and rushed down to the observation tower.
The camps of the two armies are only a few miles apart. For the cavalry running at full speed, they can reach them in a few minutes.
In order to save time, the scouts had already prepared their horses under the observation tower.
After jumping down from the observation deck, I jumped directly on the horse and rode towards the south.
The bodyguards who used to patrol the camp and carry boxes no longer acted. Just like the scouts, they threw the boxes on the ground, turned around and ran towards the horses tied to the side.
The escorts ran out of the south gate of the camp, and the party's cavalry had already arrived outside the trench at the north gate.
Because the person in charge of intelligence had reminded them, after the party's cavalry arrived at the north gate, they did not dare to rush in directly. Instead, they sent a suicide squad to jump over the ditch on foot and went to the northernmost tent of the Shu army camp.
The suicide squad carefully entered the Shu army camp, and then opened the tent curtain with a machete.
The tent was empty, not to mention the ambush, not even a single straw shoe was left.
I picked up several more tents one after another, and they were all like this.
Soon, the death squad inspected all the northernmost row of tents.
Several others ran to the middle of the camp and began to check other armories on the left and right.
"Brother, there is no one!"
The death captain went back and reported: "They have all run away, leaving only these empty tents!"
"The king has told us that we should be careful!"
The leader of the cavalry team said coldly: "Lao San, take people in and check all the tents again. Don't miss any corner!"
"Yes!" A small leader left with his men.
"Fourth and Fifth Brother, you lead people to outflank him from both sides. If anything happens to the Third Brother, you will immediately reinforce him!"
"Yes!" Two more small bosses dispersed with their men to the left and right.
After explaining this, the cavalry captain led the remaining men across the ditch and entered the Shu army's territory.
But he did not enter the Shu army camp, but walked towards the catapult position on the left side of the trench.
In order to prevent being discovered by the party members, Jin Feng did not dismantle the catapults and heavy crossbows at the front of the position when leaving.
Now that Dangxiang's catapults were burned by Jin Feng, this batch of catapults just fills the gap.
Moreover, these catapults are the most advanced models in the iron smelting workshop, and they can be handed over to craftsmen for imitation when they are returned to the party.
From the perspective of the cavalry leader, this was a bit of an unexpected gain.
But just when the cavalry leader was about to reach the first catapult, he suddenly heard a crisp sound coming from the feet of the horse.
