"Even the lord of the fort, the scouts under my general's command came from news that their route was likely to be heading to Tianyao Village. These defeated soldiers disturbed the place and eliminated the place one day earlier, and returned the place to peace one day earlier. I am going to be prepared to send troops to Tianyao Village to wait for work, what's wrong?" Bao Zhengting had had enough of it and sent troops to follow the other side every day to chase. If the other side could be wiped out in one fell swoop, he could also return to the court.

"General Bao, the other party is likely to pretend to be mysterious and act as a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain. Even if Tianyao Village is away from Lianjiabao, it will take one and a half days to travel with light clothes." Lian Yuanshan didn't believe that the other party's behavior was so easy to master? Maybe it was because of the flaws that led them to be deceived.

Bao Zhengting was unhappy, but he had no choice. Although he was a serious general in the court, more than half of the five thousand soldiers he brought had been lost. The soldiers who were replenished on the spot were all selected by these gentry. If they really broke up, the army would probably disperse in an instant.

And most importantly, the current logistics supply of the army is in the hands of this group of people.

"If it weren't for being mysterious and being successful by the other party, who could have paid this responsibility?" Bao Zhengting certainly believed in his scouts, but these gentry obviously trusted their sources more.

"General Bao, don't worry, just be prepared for rescue. Whether it is Lianjiabao, Tianyao Village, or other places, as long as there is sufficient food and grass, we have built beacon towers and strengthened our guard. As long as the other party's food and grass are exhausted, it will naturally disperse." Lian Yuanshan and the others did not want to make a contribution, just force the other party away. Everyone's purpose was different, so there would naturally be differences.

"Then you succeed, I will wait!" Although Bao Zhengting was angry, he could only endure it. If he wanted to achieve his full success in this trip, he could not do without the support of these gentry.

There were still more than twenty miles away from Tianyao Village, Gao Quan ordered the team to stop. The public statement was to investigate and prepare the siege equipment. In fact, the real reason was that he had to wait for news and wait for Gao Jichong to send someone over.

Although I don’t know where Gao Jichong was hiding, his current location was arranged in advance by Gao Jichong.

Gao Quan stood on a big stone and looked at the hill opposite. If everything went well, the signal of taking action was there.

Until the sun sets, a kite suddenly flew up on the hill where there was no movement. The kite was very big, and even if it was so far away, it could be seen clearly.

"Build the pot to make rice! Let's eat open today!" Gao Quan shouted loudly, and he had to let his brothers eat enough so that he could work hard tomorrow.

"Sir, this equipment is not ready yet." One man said in a low voice. If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools. Everyone understands this principle.

If the equipment is not complete, you can only fill it with your life.

"We don't have much food and grass. Besides, if we waste more time, the probability of exposure will be much higher." Gao Quan made an excuse casually. Anyway, the war will start early tomorrow morning, so he cannot miss Gao Jichong's plan.

As for ordinary soldiers, they don’t care about that much, they just eat openly.

Before dawn the next day, Gao Quan led everyone on the road. After this point passed, the probability of being discovered in advance was much smaller.

Thousands of people were walking between the countryside with torches, like a dragon rushing towards Tianyao Village.

Tianyao Village is divided into inner and outer villages. The inner village is surrounded by rivers and has strict defenses, which is also a place for material reserves. As for outer villages, it is much looser and there is no plan for houses, and it is scattered around.

The elite troops led by Gao Quan have not yet approached the outer village. The barking of dogs has disrupted the peaceful Tianyao Village.

The builder of Tianyao Village originally regarded this outer village as a barrier to the inner village. Once someone attacked, his traces would inevitably be exposed.

Now, it’s just a shiny day. Most of the tenants living in outer villages are still dreaming and are awakened by the barking of dogs. Some people are alert to go out to find out the situation. Some people from the inner village have already reported it, saying that they are going to prevent bandits.

As soon as I arrived at the intersection of Waizhuang, I saw endless torches moving quickly towards this side. And as the distance approached, I could see some blurry images.

The entire outer bank suddenly became in chaos. After a storm, each family began to pack up the things they could carry and ran to the inner bank.

The third owner of Tianyao Village was named Pan Mingliu, and the other owner of the big owner and the second owner went to Xiongzhou City, and the young and strong people in the village also took away a lot of them.

"Most of the three owners of the country have entered the Neizhuang. The vanguard of the bandits is less than a mile away from the suspension bridge." When the sky was a little brighter, the guards looking out on the city tower finally saw it a little clearer and ran down to report to Pan Liu.

"Wait for two more incense sticks to raise the suspension bridge." Although it is only a small river that is only a meter wide, it can also bring a great sense of security.

"Would you like to light a beacon?" the guard asked hurriedly. Just by them, it is impossible to defeat the other party. All they have to do is to resist for several hours and wait for reinforcements from Xiongzhou City to arrive.

"Wait a little longer!" Pan Liu was also afraid of death, but the elder brother sent someone to explain that he must be sure that he was the other party's main force in order to ignite the beacon. If the beacon is accidentally lit, he will be lured away from the mountain by the other party, he will not be able to bear the responsibility.

When the sun slowly rose from the hills in the east, Gao Quan and his party arrived at the small river in front of Neizhuang. Except for some lonely, old and weak, the outer village did not even have a decent food. It seems that Tian Yaozhuang was ready for this.

"Sir, let's cross the river through the floating bridge and kill him!" Du looked at the river in front of him. The water flowed very slowly. If it weren't for armor, he would have dared to jump down and start a battle.

"Don't hurry, pull all the crossbows over and line them up, I want to attack the fire." Gao Quan was abnormal and was not in a hurry to cross the river.

Although the soldiers under his command had doubts, the war was imminent, and no one dared to question his orders and nodded to do it.

More than a dozen crossbows, and more than two hundred archers, were all in place, wrapping cloth strips soaked with tinder oil on the arrow, and then they leaned against the torch next to them and began to burn.

"Hurry, go and click the beacon!" Pan Liu saw this posture and knew that this was definitely an elite. Now there were hundreds of soldiers in his eyes, which were definitely the main force of the bandits.

"Let it go!" With Gao Quan's order, hundreds of rockets flew towards Neizhuang.

Neizhuang was ready. When the rocket fell, the young and strong men hiding in the corner picked up the bucket and fed water into the water tank to put out the fire.

When two thick black smoke rose into the sky, Gao Quan breathed a sigh of relief and finally drove the soldiers in the city out.

"Fight at the suspension bridge and smash it hard!" Gao Quan saw that the two small catapults were almost ready and aimed at the suspension bridge in Neizhuang. It didn't matter if he couldn't get in, but he couldn't let the other party come out and ruin his major affairs.

The generals under his command were all confused, but they could only take the order. It was no difficulty at such a close distance. With the cooperation of the crossbow, the suspension bridge quickly turned into pieces.

In Xiongzhou City, he saw Bao Zhengting who was in flames, organized soldiers to go to war and cursed. If those idiots weren't in the way, he would have taken the other party in one fell swoop.

Even Yuanshan couldn't speak, and he didn't expect that these people did not talk about martial ethics and kept Lian Yun in front of him.

Instead of going to the fort, he went to attack Tianyao Village, which made the two owners of Tianyao Village now have no good looks to him.

"Don't worry, two owners, General Bao will definitely succeed in this trip!" Seeing Bao Zhengting leaving the city with more than 3,000 elite troops, Lian Yuanshan breathed a sigh of relief, and it should be time to do so.

In Tianyao Village, all the suspension bridges had been destroyed. Gao Quan left only a few people staring at the inner village and prevented anyone from secretly coming out, so he transferred most of the people to the outer village.

"Sir, what are we doing? If we delay this, how can we get in today?" One of them was anxious. The whole team had only one day's food left, and there would be a risk of food being out of stock tomorrow.

If you attack with all your might, you may even rob. Now, why are you setting up defense facilities in the outer village?

"You can just obey the orders, and I will definitely give you an explanation." Gao Quan was unmoved. He would never miss a trace of his mouth before the enemy arrived.

The wood originally planned to build pontoon bridges and ladders was used as construction fortifications in outer villages, blocking all the aisles between houses, forming an airtight defensive wall.

If the fortifications of this level are real battles between the two armies, it is just a trick for children to play house. But now the other party is coming lightly, it is different.

Pan Liu looked at the scene in front of him and felt unsure. The opponent was obviously not the normal rhythm of the attack. Although he didn't know what the opponent was planning, it was definitely not a good thing.

I climbed up the city tower and looked into the distance. I felt a little incredible. The other party was demolishing the house. Could it be that they were here for these bricks and tiles?

"Three owners, what are the other party going to do?" The guard looked very sad. The house he had just started last year, and the beams on the roof were demolished. Even if the thief retreated, who should he pay for his losses?

"Do they want to trap us to death? But the location is wrong." The third owner was a little confused. If he really wanted to trap them to death, this defense should be closer to the river surface to facilitate concentrating troops.

"Master of the Third Manor, do you think the other party is going to fight against the officers and soldiers?" The guard felt that this posture seemed to be guarding against the rear. What would appear in the rear should be the officers and soldiers in Xiongzhou City.

"They are going to fight to the death? Why did they pick us here? The advantage is not obvious." Pan Liu felt a headache. If you really want to fight against the officers and soldiers, you should find a dangerous place to go.

Could it be that I want to fight with my back? Looking at the river in front of me, it seems a bit far-fetched.

Although the Southern Han court was in chaos, it was not all full of wine. At least Bao Zhengting was still a qualified commander. He wanted to fly to Tianyao Village immediately, but he still released all the scouts, for fear of being ambushed by the other party.

Compared with the forces between the two sides, even if they are ambushed, the problem is not big, but Bao Zhengting does not want to take risks.

"Report! The enemy is still in Tianyao Village, and there is no sign of evacuation." The scout rushed all the way and ran to Bao Zhengting to report. Before he got close, he was driven away by the opponent's cavalry. He just took a look from a high place and knew that the opponent was quite crowded.

"Go forward at full speed!" Bao Zhengting was overjoyed. The credit was right in front of him. He didn't care about being trapped. What he had to do now was to move forward quickly and not let the other party escape.

Bao Zhengting was only concerned about rushing to the road, without knowing that on the hillside three miles away, Gao Jichong held up a telescope and saw all this in his eyes.
