The crescent moon in the sky hid shyly in the thin clouds, with only a faint hazy light between the sky and the earth, and all things can only roughly see a vague shadow.

Gao Daquan rode on the horse and looked quietly ahead, like a sculpture.

A strange bird scream came from the night sky, Gao Daquan raised his eyebrows and turned his head to look over.

A light figure flashed out of the night, quickly walked to the front of the tall horse, and whispered: "Command, the Jiaozhi people in front of me just woke up and were burying the pot to cook, but the fire had not yet started!"

"Okay, the time is just right! You can return to the team and prepare to fight with the Jiaozhi people!"

Looking at the dark night ahead, Gao Daquan gritted his teeth and said to the messenger beside him: "Go to the back to send commands and commands, the entire army will move forward quietly, don't lose it! Also, when you hear the sound of the horn, you will rush forward with all your might, each looking for the Jiaozhi people to fight. The sun rises and follows me with you from the battlefield, and look for another opportunity in front!"

The messenger Yingnuo went backwards.

When he came out, Xu Ping gave Gao Daquan the task of harassing the Jiaozhi soldiers and increasing the difficulty of supplying food and grass in Jiaozhi, and the other was to show the existence of the Song army and make the local officials disagree with Jiaozhi.

These two tasks were completed well, and some local officials had even made it clear that they were willing to surrender to the Great Song Dynasty, and undercurrents began to surging in the northern part of Jiaozhi.

Xu Ping had never expected the current situation at that time, and of course he did not give any special orders. Gao Daquan received the news and led his subordinates to march in an urgent manner.

He had only two thousand cavalry under his command. After several days of fighting, he did not dare to swallow more than 10,000 elite soldiers in one bite. As long as he disrupted the marching steps of the Jiaozhi people at the right time, he would have to let the Song army chasing behind him follow in time, so he chose this opportunity.

Li Renyi was awakened by his personal soldiers and asked sleepyly: "When has it been? Have you finished the meal?"

The personal soldier said: "It's making a fire. Last night, good luck found a sheep and roasted it for the high official to make breakfast!"

Li Renyi nodded with satisfaction and sat up and rubbed his sore legs. He had been enjoying happiness in the palace for many years. Where have you ever suffered such hardship? After a few days, I felt that I couldn't bear it.

At this moment, a dull horn sound broke through the tranquility of the middle of the night. The frightened birds in the surrounding mountains and forests flew into the air, and the whole world was filled with panic.

Li Renyi was so scared that he shook his whole body and almost rolled to the ground. He had just left three thousand people to cut off the back yesterday. Why did the Song army catch up so quickly? More than 10,000 people were elite soldiers of Jiaozhi, and they could not be defeated casually. They had to hold the Song army back for a day and a half.

As soon as dawn, Xu Ping took Tan Hu, Lu Fang and two thousand township soldiers out of Nanliangzhou City and rushed to the south. After thinking it through last night, Xu Ping's mentality finally changed and he decided to go to the front to supervise the battle himself. He eliminated the defeated Jiaozhi defeated soldiers north of the Fuliang River and did not leave any trouble for his descendants.

Looking at history in the past life, I often saw commanders who were careless and failed in the end, which made future generations extremely regretful. Now that I am facing this situation, I cannot let this happen to me.

After leaving the valley entrance and heading south, Xu Ping looked at the low and rolling hills, sparse farmland and villages on both sides of the road, and felt that his choice was a wise move.

The terrain here is also suitable for growing sugar cane, which can expand the sugar sugar business here. According to the practice in Yongzhou, this land will eventually be inseparable from the Central Plains. Moreover, the land here is more fertile, unlike Yongzhou where limestone is everywhere, and rainwater cannot retain nutrients and can feed more people.

In this era, due to technical limitations, the delta region covered with swamps was not easy to develop. Unless the manpower is particularly sufficient, they still have strong organizational capabilities. For example, Liangzhe Road has reached its current scale for hundreds of years.

On the contrary, these low hilly places are more suitable for reclaiming farmland because they are not flooded. Although their potential is not as large as the southern delta, they take a short time and take quick results.

The front was swept by the Song army brigade without any obstruction. There were local officials consciously supplying food and grass along the way. Xu Ping walked very smoothly and advanced very quickly. On the third day, he finally caught up with the brigade of Sang Yi, Zhang Rong and Han Daocheng.

After receiving the report, several people came over to greet Xu Ping.

Seeing that Gao Daquan was also with several people, Xu Ping nodded and said, "So you have already met them, why didn't you intercept the defeated soldiers in front?"

Gao Daquan saluted with his hands: "Officials, I stopped the defeated soldiers of Jiaozhi. Inspection Officer Sang and others rushed over. We have worked together to eliminate them! Li Renyi, the military supervisor sent by Shenglong Mansion, was also captured and taken in the front military camp. Should the officials interrogate them?"

Xu Ping was stunned, but he didn't expect that he had just come in vain. After looking at several people, he asked, "When did it happen?"

Sang Yi said: "The day before yesterday, Gao Daquan stopped the defeated soldiers of Jiaozhi. Yesterday, Han Daocheng arrived first. Zhang Rong and I arrived around noon, and we won a great victory in the afternoon!"

"Why didn't I notify you in time?"

Xu Ping was slightly unhappy. They should have paid back such a big thing overnight, but he was still anxious on the road, but several soldiers were resting here.

Sang Yi had a strange expression on his face, looked at the other people, and said to Xu Ping: "We are still discussing how to repay you, but if we don't want the officials, we will come."

Xu Ping glanced at the few people and knew that there must be something wrong with them to tell him. He pretended to be a fool, and then said, "What do you mean? Let's go to the military camp."

When he arrived at the central army tent, Xu Ping sat down in the main seat and the soldiers served tea. Xu Ping slowly drank the tea before asking the few people in a deep voice: "Tell me, what are you discussing?"

Several people looked at me and I looked at you, and finally Sang Yi said: "Officials, we are discussing here whether to return as directed by the official, or--"

"Or what?"

Sang Yi looked at Xu Ping's face and said carefully: "I'll still march into Shenglong Mansion!"

"What?" Xu Ping stood up and looked at the few people standing in front of him.

Sang Yi said: "Gao Daquan has been coming and going by the Fuliang River these days. I have found out clearly that there are only 5,000 elite soldiers in Shenglong Mansion, and the others are just servants and so on. We have five or six thousand cavalry and more than 10,000 infantry here, maybe we can try it."

Xu Ping shook his head: "Shenglong Mansion is the Jiaozhi Royal City. The city is strong and guarded by 5,000 people. Even if there are 50,000 people going to attack, it is not something that can be defeated in a hurry. Besides, when is it now? It is already the end of March, and the rainy season is coming soon. As time goes by, the food and grass cannot be supplied at all."

Speaking of this, Xu Ping sighed: "Not to mention, the Fuliang River Jiaozhi in front of him has always been a barrier to Shenglong Mansion. It has been operating for many years, and it is difficult to cross the river."

Gao Daquan stepped forward and said, "The Fuliang River Jiaozhi has already closed all the ferries, so it is difficult to cross the river. However, more than fifty miles upstream, there is a place to cross the river. A few days ago, I scared the people of Jiaozhi along the river and accidentally found a local official who had a ferry, and he saved it at once."

"It is precisely because of this news that we are discussing here-"

Sang Yi said, looking at Xu Ping with the others.

(I feel so useless recently, but I just can't write it. I originally wanted to update the leader on the weekend, but I couldn't write it out, so I had to push it back. Maybe after writing this plot, my condition will improve. Now I'm full of plots of going back to the capital, which is really annoying.)
Chapter completed!
