Jianmen Pass, Wang Weizhang, and Xiao Shiwei rode a few donkeys, and walked for 3 days. Finally, he arrived outside Jianmen Pass.

The dignified 4 Sichuan Governor and the second-rank official of the Ming Dynasty, he was as down and out as a disciple of the Beggars' Sect. The more embarrassed he was, the more embarrassed he was. So much so that the defenders of Jianmen Pass almost treated them as stealing others.

The donkey's beggar was blasted out.

Fortunately, although the defenders at Jianmen Pass did not recognize the Governor of the 4 Sichuan, it was because Xiao Shiwei was the direct superior of the officers and soldiers near Jianzhou and recognized the face of Xiao Shiwei, the Jianzhou soldiers, so he did not make any bigger jokes.

Wang Weizhang ignored these things and after entering Jianmen Pass, he quickly ordered the defenders of Jianmen Pass to be on alert and attack below the north at any time.

Four hours after Wang Weizhang entered Jianmen Pass, a team of people hurried outside Jianmen Pass. These people, under the banner of officers and soldiers, claimed that they would be pursued by Pei Thief behind them, and requested to enter Jianmen Pass to take refuge.

But the news that Chaotian Pass, Guangyuan and other places had long been lost as Wang Weizhang entered Jianmen Pass and spread wildly inside Jianmen Pass. How could the defenders of Jianmen Pass easily be deceived? So they took the trick, pretended to agree, and then waited for this

After criticizing officers and soldiers approached Jianmen Pass without warning, four ambushes occurred in four weeks, and arrows fell like rain.

—

The officers and soldiers who were buried suddenly lost more than half of them, and the rest also fled. Looking at the 'thief'''s escape, the guards of Jianmen Pass laughed and pointed at the officials and cursed: "Bah, the surname Pei

A traitor, is it so easy to cheat when you are a grandpa?"

At this time, Liu Changle, who was far behind, also brought people to show his figure. Looking at the fleeing official army, Liu Changle already knew that Jianmen Pass was still on guard and then took Jianmen Pass to the surprise attack.

, it is not that easy.

The officers and soldiers who just wanted to enter the pass were actually really officers and soldiers, but they were Guangyuan's officers and soldiers. After Guangyuan was captured by Pei Zhuer, a group of officers and soldiers were concerned about the court and would rather escape than surrender to the Pei family army. Liu Changle met on the road

When this group of people were in trouble, they suddenly had a whim and used these people as chess pieces to test Jianmen Pass. The response of the Jianmen Pass defenders was also good.

Therefore, Liu Changle was far behind the officers and soldiers, driving them towards Jianmen Pass.

"Zhang Suxi, you bring 1,000 people to try the quality of Jianmen Pass." Liu Changle looked at Jianmen Pass and said calmly.

Jianmen Pass is the last barrier to enter Shu. It is located at the interruption of Jianmen Mountain, 30 miles south of Jiange County. It has sharp cliffs on both sides, and it goes straight into the sky. The peaks and mountains lean against the sky like swords. The cliffs are broken and the two walls are opposite each other.

It is called "Sword Gate". It enjoys the reputation of "Sword Gate is in danger in the world".

Zhang Suxi led a 1,000-biting shield soldier and moved 1 inch and 1 inch towards Jianmenguan. Before he could reach Guancheng, the cannons arranged on Guancheng should first spit out the flames, and the shells made of lead were in Zhang Suxi's headquarters.

45 bloody roads were plowed out in the 5th journey. Immediately afterwards, the door was closed, and dense rain of arrows poured down like a heavy rain. The Pei family army, who had just received a heavy blow, was immediately severely injured.

At this time, behind Bangbang, the Pei family army's main formation sounded a sound of gold. Zhang Suxi immediately breathed a sigh of relief and led the remaining troops to retreat, leaving more than 100 corpses on the desolate ground.

Zhang Suxi returned to Liu Changle and lowered his head and said, "General, I."

"Well, there is no need to say more. I will pass on the order, retreat ten miles to set up camp, and send someone to quickly pass the situation here to the general to know."

"Yes, my subordinates' order."

Taiping County.

Zhao Jiang ran back to the county town with sweat. As soon as he returned to the city, he met the magistrate Chen Congjiao who was waiting for him to come back. Chen Congjiao secretly pulled Zhao Jiang to the side, avoiding everyone's sight, and whispered

He asked: "How is it? How many troops are there in Tongjiang, Dazhou?"

Hearing these words, Zhao Jiang said with a sad face: "Sir, Guangyuan, Jianzhou has changed. Chaotianguan, Guangyuan, and Zhaohua are lost. The governor finally escapes back to Jianzhou, but his soul is lost. He convenes Kui continuously

The troops from the Prefecture, Baoning Prefecture, Shunqing Prefecture, and Chengdu Prefecture gathered in the direction of Jianzhou."

"What?" Chen Congjiao's face turned pale and his lips trembled: "If I remember well, this is the second time that the governor has drawn soldiers from all over the place to gather near Jianmen. If you continue to pull this way, there will be soldiers in the local area.

Is it?"

"It's gone, it's gone long ago." Zhao Jiang said: "When I arrived at Dazhou, all the troops in the entire prefecture city were all drawn, and only two hundred old men were left to barely maintain the situation. This is still a distance from the sword.

Because the state is too far away, as for Baoning Prefecture, Chengdu Prefecture, and Tongzhou Prefecture, which are closer to Jianzhou, there are not one soldier and one soldier. It is said that some prefectures and counties only have one yamen runner left to defend the city.

However, there are still some soldiers in Shunqing Prefecture. When I handed the Lord’s letter of help to the prefect of Shunqing Prefecture, Shunqing Prefecture immediately sent someone to rescue Taiping."

Chen Congjiao's pale face returned to a trace of blood and said quickly: "It's good to have reinforcements, it's good to have reinforcements. How many people did Liu Magistrate Shunqing Prefecture photograph?"

“5,000.”

"5,000?" Chen Congjiao screamed in surprise, "What can 5,000 people do? There are 20,000 thieves in Taiping County."

body

"Sir, the 5,000 people are already all the troops in Shunqing Prefecture. Even if the prefect Liu wants to get more troops, he will be gone. They are all transferred to Jianzhou."

Chen Congjiao was speechless. He remembered that a few days ago, he suggested to the Pei family army admiral Li Guojun and Wang Xiangyun that he could deceive the officers and soldiers near Dazhou. At that time, the Pei family army only needed to set up an ambush on the road to destroy the Dazhou officers and soldiers.

Then he took the opportunity to secretly tell Zhao Jiang, who was sent to Dazhou, that he must spread the news that Taiping was occupied by the bandits to the nearby prefectures, and try his best to ask nearby officers and soldiers to send troops to defeat the bandits and save the Taiping people from water and fire.

Unexpectedly, if he let his body do everything, he happened to catch up with the governor Wang Weizhang to mobilize almost all the officers and soldiers of Beichuan, so that even if Chen Congjiao asked for help, he would have 5,000 troops coming to rescue him.

At this time, Chen Congjiao was finally afraid. If his Pei family bandits were not expelled, they were defeated by the officers and soldiers. Then they would be suspected that Chen Congjiao revealed this news to the official army. By then, Chen Congjiao was the only one who could not be expelled.

There is no door to enter the ground, and there is no place to die.

Chen Congjiao closed his lips tightly, took a deep breath, and murmured: "It's not that I, Chen Congjiao, was not loyal to the court, but I can only blame Wang Weizhang, the governor of Sichuan, for being too incompetent." He made a decision in his heart.

At this moment, Zhao Jiang suddenly said, "Sir, what did you say?"

"Nothing," Chen Congjiao laughed, and changed the subject. Suddenly, Chen Congjiao looked at Zhao Jiang's back and nodded, "General Li, why are you here? The villain bowed to you." As he said that, he was about to kneel down and acted.

.

Zhao Jiang1 Hearing that Li Guojun was coming, his heart trembled, and he turned around and knelt backwards. Unexpectedly, just as Zhao Jiang turned around and knelt down, Chen Congjiao behind him suddenly took out his arms.

He stabbed Zhao Jiang's heart hard.

Zhao Jiang was assassinated by Chen Cong Sect, and turned around and looked back, but he could no longer do it, so he died.

P Chen Congjiao pulled out the dagger, wiped it on Zhao Jiang's clothes, then put it back in his arms, and then hid Zhao Jiang's body behind a big tree next to him. The place is sparsely populated, and very few people come, just killing people hide it.

A good place for corpses.

When he returned to his room, Chen Congjiao wrote quickly, and a letter appeared in front of him. Chen Congjiao picked it up and went up and down for a lot, and was quite satisfied. He put the letter in his arms and then hurried out of the door.

At Li Guojun's residence, Wang Xiangyun was planning something with Li Guojun. When he heard his personal soldiers report Chen Congjiao to see him, Wang Xiangyun stopped in his hand and looked at Li Guojun. Seeing that Li Guojun was still pointing fingers on the geography and painting, it seemed that he didn't hear it at all. Wang Xiangyun said:

"Let him come in."

Then, Chen Congjiao rushed over, took out a letter from his arms while walking, and said excitedly to Li Guojun and Wang Xiangyun: "General, general, the big thing has been done. I have deceived the officers and soldiers near Dazhou. The general is ambushed.

The plan can be implemented."

"Oh?" Li Guojun's eyes finally moved away from the geography and fell on the letter from Chen Congjiao. Wang Xiangyun took the letter and passed it to Li Guojun with a sensible look.
