Li Jing led a large army to cross the Yangtze River from Jingzhou and galloped southward. Finally, half a month later, he arrived at the first stop on the Yuezhou border, Huarong, which is the place where Cao Cao's defeat in Huarong Road in history.

If you want to go to Yueyang, you must go to Huarong. Huarong's terrain is dangerous, and it is difficult for us to distinguish between the enemy and the enemy. Li Jing attaches great importance to this. According to the speculation of the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan, the entire Yuezhou is not safe. But he still needs to rush over to protect the Supreme Emperor as quickly as possible.

"Master, the terrain of Huarong Road is extremely narrow and long, but our itinerary cannot be delayed. What should we do?" Zhang Liang asked.

Li Jing was also pondering about this matter. After a moment, he ordered: "Camp on site and send four scouts to investigate whether there are ambushing on the mountains on both sides of Huarong Road. The army rested for half a day and prepared to set off after half a day."

After some investigation, I found that there was no ambush on Huarong Road. The generals thought that this was a false alarm, but Li Jing did not dare to be careless and ordered the entire army to move into ten groups and quickly pass through Huarong Road by moving ants.

Zhang Liangxin said that the general was really cautious, but he didn't know. Fortunately, Li Jing was cautious this time, otherwise he would have lost a lot on Huarong Road. Although he had been searched by scouts on the mountain and had no ambush, this does not mean that it was really safe.

At the edge of the cliff, a small group of soldiers were discussing something, and the team was scolding: "Damn, the general opposite is too shameless, and it seems that there is no ambush. He is still going to go there in this way? This is too cowardly."

"How can we explain to the leader when we go back?" a soldier said worriedly.

"There is any solution, but it doesn't matter. These institutions are not used this time. They will have to go there sooner or later, and it will be the same if they use them next time. Anyway, we are just adding some casualties to them, not to destroy them here.

The fourth brother, go and report to the leader. We continue to surveillance here. The Lord ordered that although the court sent 20,000 troops this time, this is open. We must observe clearly whether there are troops coming in secret."

A day later, Cheng Huaimu and his friends also walked to Huarong, but the difference was that they increased from a team of 10,000 to 10,000, because when they were in Jingzhou, in order to cross the Yangtze River, they arranged for the Water Forest Gang on the Yangtze River as a special water army at the suggestion of Li Yuanba. Of course, these people were not good at fighting, and they could only be used to cross the river and sail.

"Master, there is a natural danger on Huarong Road, how can we get over?" Li Yexu asked.

"What are you afraid of? Aren't the 20,000 imperial soldiers who were clearing the way for us? Let's just follow us?" Yuchi Baolin shouted.

Li Chengdao stopped him and said, "No, for caution, we must conduct investigations. Although we are now disguised as disciples of the Beggars' Gang, it is difficult to guarantee that the other party will not attack the large number of beggars. After all, beggars do not seem to have the strength of the army, and this is a good place to ambush."

Cheng Huaimo ordered: "Send the most elite tiger guard scout and search carefully on the cliffs on both sides. No matter whether the other party is ambushing or not, don't be alarmed, come back quickly to report."

The Tiger Guard Scout is a special existence among this army. It is not a spy, but a tiger in the Tiger Army who has been with the soldiers for a long time. It can communicate with others and understand people's wishes. Such a smart tiger was selected to form a scout team. Although both sides cannot communicate in animal language, it is still convenient to express simply that no one is present. Moreover, searching in this way is more advantageous than being a scout in the mountains.

Sure enough, with this secret weapon, in less than a day, the two teams hidden on the cliffs on both sides of Huarong Road were discovered by tigers. Unlike human scouts, the two teams would not pay attention to the passing of the tigers. They all thought that this was the tiger coming out to find food. Who would have thought that he was the scout of the other party?

"You mean, there are teams of people lying on both sides?"

"That's right, the Huwei scouts can't count the number of people, but they don't know that there are many people!" Yuchi Baolin replied.

"So, there is something strange about this. In other words, they have already monitored the movements of the army, but why not ambush here? A 20,000 army, Huarong Road ambushed and intercepted once, and then it will lose 5,000 upwards. What is the other party doing?" Li Chunfeng was puzzled.

"Then how do we pass?" Qin Huaidao asked.

Everyone was worried about this. The more than 10,000 soldiers were originally intended to hide. If they passed by so blatantly, they would definitely be discovered. It was not about 5,000 infantry, but about two cavalry teams.

"All infantrymen are disguised as transport teams of the Beggars' Sect. We treat them as the passing of transporting food, grass and weapons to the army ahead. Three thousand cavalrymen disguised as Green Forest men and horses, each preparing different weapons and passing them in batches. Each time, about ten people will be transported over within five days. It will be a great achievement." Cheng Huaimo ordered.

Because according to Li Jing's army's itinerary, it will take two days to reach Yueyang. Since it is a bandit suppression, it will take until it has a good time before taking action, so there will be no big battle within a few days.

"Boss, another group of people came, will you do it?" shouted the small team of soldiers lying on Huarong Road.

"Damn it, it's really a weird thing. Their grain transport team had just passed a few days ago. Here are another beggars who came to help transport grain? Are they going to waste time with us in Yuezhou?

If you can't do it, don't you see it's the transport team of the Beggars' Gang? The master has an agreement with others that the Beggars' Gang will not participate in the war, and we will not kill the Beggars' Gang, a group of beggars running errands, regardless of them.

Humph, all the evil spirits in the past two days have been squeezed here, and now even beggars are coming to join in the fun. It seems that Bai Fan is really capable, so many people protect him."

The journey went smoothly, Li Jing brought 20,000 people into Yueyang City without any obstacles. When he saw the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan, for his safety, Li Jing immediately ordered the takeover of Yueyang City Defense.

But a day later, just as everyone was discussing how to find the hiding place of the bandits, Cheng Huaimo sent someone to report that he had found a scout ambush on Huarong Road.

Li Jing was puzzled, why did the other party just send scouts to monitor but not take action? In the war, Huarong Road is the most suitable for ambushing. If you don’t want such a good place, what do the other party want to do? Are they really a bunch of incompetent bandits?

Soon, reality told Li Jing the answer that he was not a bad bandit, and he looked down on the Bianbajiao of Huarong Road because he had better plans.

"Report! General, a large number of soldiers and horses appeared around Yueyang. Judging from the situation, they were going to attack the city!" The city gate guards came to report loudly.

"What? Where did the people come from? How many people are there?" Li Jing was shocked in the city lord's mansion.

"I don't know where they came from. They came from all directions. Judging from the number of people, there was no less than 50,000 troops, and Yueyang was surrounded by water!"

He urgently brought his generals to the city to investigate and saw that there were soldiers below. When he thought of Cheng Huaimo's report, Li Jing didn't understand that he was deliberately letting go. After asking you to get into the trap, he closed the door and beat the dog.

Being able to gather tens of thousands of soldiers quietly to siege Yueyang, it means that Yueyang is already an isolated city at this time, and the entire Yuezhou has fallen into the hands of bandits.

Seeing this, Li Yuan suddenly realized and sighed: "The other party has such a clever plan. He secretly controlled the entire Yuezhou area and left Yueyang alone to deal with the court. Now he used this old guy as bait to attract reinforcements from the court, and finally destroyed us all.

What a vicious plan.”

However, Li Yuan was as smart as he did not guess the other party’s plans at this time. The other person’s viciousness was more than that!
