Chapter 222: Find
Baoshan County is a Lin County of Mingshui County, although one is under Xingzhou Prefecture and the other is under Hanzhong Prefecture.
Although the two counties are Lin counties, the traffic is not convenient, because there are continuous mountains and rivers between the two counties. In the past, there was a small road for people to travel between the two counties, but it was only a small road, with mountains and rocks on both sides. , even a small trolley can't pass, so people have always had to pass through Xingzhou Mansion first, then go out Xingcheng Pass and enter Hanzhong Mansion, and then go to Baoshan County.
And this trail was blocked by the earth and rocks on the mountain after Dazhou officers and soldiers bombed it after Jinbing occupied Hanzhongfu.
But Zhuang Dawei offered them another path.
Baoshan County and Mingshui County are blocked by roads. Qi Haoran's ultimate goal is not it, but the entire Hanzhong Mansion.
Qi Xiuyuan also knew his younger brother's ambitions. This battle was not for his younger brother to command, but for him to be the vanguard.
Qi Haoran once boasted in front of him how powerful the scout battalion he had trained for half a year was a test at this time.
Baoshan County did not have Jin soldiers stationed. As long as they occupied the county government and controlled the people inside, they could use Baoshan County as a stronghold to expand to the entire Hanzhong Prefecture.
And Qi Xiuyuan wants to import a large number of troops and horses into Hanzhong Prefecture quietly, so it cannot pass through Baoshan County, because the horses and food and grass cannot pass through that path, so Qi Haoran and the others must control it as soon as possible after occupying Baoshan County. Qinghe Town, twelve miles away from Baoshan County.
Qinghe Town leads directly to Baiqi Town, Shunzhen County, Xingzhou Prefecture. There are checkpoints between the two countries and soldiers are guarding it. Qi Haoran's task is to kill those soldiers, so that Qi Xiuyuan's soldiers and horses can go directly to Qinghe Town.
The soldiers and horses entered the Hanzhong Mansion, and they could attack from inside and outside to take down the Hanzhong Mansion.
Qi Xiuyuan dared to attack Hanzhong Mansion at this time. In addition to his strong troops and horses, and all the new soldiers have been trained, the most important point is that Hanzhong Mansion has been a little chaotic during this time because of the poor harvest.
Attacking the Hanzhong mansion at this time will help to gain popular support. Besides, there may be a major disaster next year. This is both a disaster and an opportunity. Taking advantage of this opportunity to recruit more soldiers and military households will only benefit him and not hurt him.
Of course, Qi Xiuyuan would not take this risk by himself, so after he made the plan, he sent a letter to General Yuan and asked him to recover the country together.
This is General Yuan's lifelong wish. Whenever possible, he will work hard. Although Qi Xiuyuan did not write down the specific time for his actions, he believes that the elite of the Yuan family must be always ready. As long as he moves here, the Yuan family will come forward to contain it. Soldiers and horses in Caizhou and Tangzhou.
Qi Xiuyuan considered every problem, and seeing that Rongxuan couldn't find any problems, he smiled: "So it's settled, only the four of us know about it, don't tell the soldiers below, Haoran, you are now Just go back and get ready."
Fan Zijin saw that everyone had something to do, and he was the only one who was free, and hurriedly said: "Big cousin, and me, I'll go with Haoran too."
"No," Qi Xiuyuan said with a cold face: "You follow Rongxuan honestly, and follow him to prepare food and grass. Haoran is there to kill people, not to go out on a picnic. You will only cause trouble if you go."
Fan Zijin's eyes widened and he looked at his big cousin in disbelief. When did he cause trouble?
Rong Xuan chuckled and said to him: "Haoran they are going to march quickly, even the trained soldiers may not be able to withstand this intensity, you still don't think about following, the preparation is the most important thing, right? Now, the food that your people brought back from Lin'an Prefecture will be requisitioned first, and when Hanzhong Prefecture is occupied, we will return the five camps to you."
This time, Qi Haoran jumped up, "How does this work? That's the food for our fifth battalion, we're about to run out of food."
Qi Xiuyuan flicked a finger on his forehead and said, "Don't think I don't know how much military ration you have received in five camps this year. The five camps are yours the most. How much did you deduct privately?"
Qi Haoran shouted: "I have already paid one third more than them. Big brother can't ask for all the military rations, right? I borrowed a lot from the Sun and Zhao families when I built the water conservancy. The food has not been returned to the family."
Qi Xiuyuan coughed lightly, grabbed his brother's shoulder and said, "Big brother knows that you are in a difficult situation right now, but isn't it a special situation? If you want the soldiers to charge, you must always feed them."
Qi Haoran said unhappily: "I gave you so much military rations, aren't they all in the warehouse? The ones that Zijin brought back from Jiangnan were bought with silver, and we spent a lot of money."
"That is reserved for next year. As long as it is used, it will be noticed by others. Isn't the action a secret now? The Sage doesn't want there to be any more wars at the border. Do you think our soldiers will be recalled by the Sage before they leave the border?"
Qi Haoran slumped his shoulders and could only respond, but he was muttering to the emperor in his heart that he was trying to get back the land for him, but he was trying to stop him, and he didn't know what his mentality was.
Qi Haoran went back to prepare, and transferred out the scout camp that Mu Yangling had been training with for half a year. He didn't say what he was going to do, he just encouraged them, and then ordered the kitchen to give them food and drink.
Then early the next morning, Qi Haoran led people into the mountain quietly.
Mu Yangling was lying in the woods, watching Qi Haoran bring the scout camp up the mountain, his brows could not help frowning. Although she and he often brought people to train in the woods, they had never been so prepared.
They are fully armed, and at first glance, they are going to the rhythm of the mission.
Mu Yangling was lying in the jungle and watched them disappear into the forest, and recalled in his mind that there seemed to be a path leading to Sipan Village.
Mu Yangling exhaled after making sure that the person was far away, got up and patted the grass clippings, picked up the bow and arrow on the ground and was about to turn around, his body suddenly froze, turning around a little stiffly, Qi Haoran was looking at her with a cold face.
Mu Yangling gave a stiff smile, stretched out his right hand and gestured like a lucky cat, and said, "What a coincidence."
Qi Haoran snorted coldly and said, "It's only a matter if you make your breathing lighter."
Mu Yangling knew that he was telling the truth. The moment she saw Qi Haoran just now, her mind was up and down. She had already merged with the environment, but she accidentally missed her breath. It was only for a moment that Qi Haoran noticed it unexpectedly.
Mu Yangling was annoyed by his negligence, but also happy for Qi Haoran's growth. He could be so powerful, thanks to her training.
"Are you going to Hanzhong Mansion?"
Qi Haoran didn't want to say it at first, but he nodded and threatened her with staring eyes, "Don't say this."
Mu Yangling felt that there was no deterrent at all, smiled, looked at him and said, "Then be careful, but you must come back alive, don't lose most of your life like last time."
Qi Haoran also became serious, nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely come back alive, and your father will come back alive too."
Mu Yangling's eyes widened, "My father is also participating?"
Qi Haoran just smiled, "I'm really deceived, I'm really stupid." He raised his hand and said, "Okay, my lord is gone, you can help me pay more attention to the situation of the fifth battalion and corn when I'm not here. You also need to worry more about the matter, but don't be stolen."
