At this moment, Zhang Zhongjing was already panicking.
He was extremely panicked.
Li Xiao was dead.
In fact, the entire army was in chaos. No one was able to stop the soldiers who were coming at them.
Zhang Zhongjing was a spy planted by a bandit in Fushan County. Now that the situation was not looking good, it was impossible for them to resist.
The problem was that it was impossible for them to retreat.
Surrender!
That was the only path he could take.
This was especially so when he saw Zong Ba charging towards him with a blade in hand. That tall and sturdy body, as well as the ferocious killing intent, caused people to involuntarily feel fear in their hearts.
After Zhang Zhongjing thought of this, he lost all will to fight. Without wasting any more time, he knelt on the ground with a plop.
His face was filled with fear.
His expression was filled with fear.
He was afraid that he would be killed.
In the blink of an eye, Zong Ba had already arrived in front of Zhang Zhongjing. Zong Ba saw Zhang Zhongjing kneeling on the ground and sneered. He immediately lowered his saber.
Zhang Zhongjing's eyes widened when he saw that. He had a look of disbelief on his face. "I …" he said.
Before he could finish, the saber had already fallen.
Slash!
The sharp edge of the saber cut Zhang Zhongjing's neck.
Blood splattered everywhere.
Zhang Zhongjing fell to the ground. His body twitched a few times before he stopped breathing.
After Zhang Zhongjing was killed, the rest of the bandits lost their fighting spirit and knelt on the ground to surrender.
Everyone surrendered.
No one dared to resist.
After killing Zhang Zhongjing, Zong Ba continued to kill with his saber. Under Zong Ba's killing, the soldiers in front and behind attacked, and Zhang Zhongjing and Li Xiao were killed. The entire army was in chaos.
All the soldiers either fled or knelt on the ground to surrender. No one was willing to fight to the death.
Zong Ba led the soldiers back and forth to kill.
In a short time, the soldiers had completely subdued the bandits. The situation on the battlefield was completely under control.
As the leader, Zong Ba immediately ordered the soldiers to count their losses.
In less than an hour, all the casualties were accounted for.
The soldier in charge of counting came to Zong Ba's side and said, "General Zong, the results of this battle have been accounted for. In this battle, we killed more than 900 people, captured more than 1,300 people, and several hundred escaped. Our losses are less than 300 people. This battle is a complete victory. "
When Zong Ba heard this, a smile appeared on his face.
A smile appeared on Zong Ba's face as he ordered, "Retreat!"
"Yes!"
All of the soldiers immediately withdrew their troops.
Not long after Zong Ba left with his men, another group of people arrived at the scene of the battle.
The ones in the lead were Babur and Yan Pu.
Babur looked around and said solemnly, "That's true. It's Du Qi's ambush. Fortunately, we held back and didn't attack together with Li Xiao and the others. If all of them come at once, it will be difficult for us to fight against them with our military strength. "
Yan Pu said, "The entire army has been evacuated. Next time, when we ambush them, we will definitely be victorious. We will definitely win this battle!
Babble said, "Mr. Yan, thanks to your plan. This time, Du Qi ambushed the people who wanted to ambush him. Next time, when Du Qi is truly on his way, he won't be on guard. Then, we will definitely win this battle. Once we kill Du Qi, we can seize the entire Songyang County. "
Yan Pu said, "Congratulations, my lord. After this, you will have made a great contribution and will be able to leave Songyang County. Who knows, when the county governor is happy, he might even appoint you as the new county governor of Songyang County. "
"Hahaha …"
Babur burst into laughter when he heard this.
After laughing, Babur said, "It's impossible for me to become the county governor of Songyang County. If the county governor can appoint me as the county governor, yes, as the county governor of Fushan County, that will be enough. "
Yan Pu said, "You have made such a great contribution, you will definitely be appointed as an official. At the very least, you will be the county governor. "
Babur said, "I hope so."
After a pause, Babur said, "Let's go. We will continue to lie in ambush and wait for the real Du Qi to arrive."
"Yes, my lord!"
Yan Pu replied immediately.
Babur led his army and quickly left, quietly hiding.
After Babur left, another soldier quietly appeared near the scene of the battle and quickly headed to where Zong Ba was.
This soldier was the scout that Zong Ba had left behind.
The scout arrived at Zong Ba's location and reported, "General Zong, we really did find someone hiding. After our army left, a team appeared to scout the situation. Then, they left quietly. Our men have already followed them and will soon find out where they are hiding. "
Zong Ba said, "Got it. Scout again."
The scout turned and left.
Zong Ba himself did not waste any time. He quickly led the army back to Fushan County. Once he returned to the county, the army temporarily set up camp. Zong Ba went straight to the county office and saw Meng Jiuyou in the study. He reported, "County Governor, the first wave of ambush outside has been completely dealt with."
"Good!"
Meng Jiuyou nodded with a bright smile on his face.
The first step of the matter was completed.
Now that this step was completed, the next step was to deal with the people hiding in the dark.
Meng Jiuyou asked, "I asked you to find out if there are still people hiding in the dark. Is this confirmed?"
Zong Ba replied, "County Governor Meng, this matter is confirmed. After we left, there were indeed people who secretly went to the battlefield to scout the situation. Our scouts have already followed them and will definitely be able to find out the situation. I estimate that it will take at most two hours to get to the bottom of the matter. "
Meng Jiuyou smiled. "I will wait for good news."
At this moment, Meng Jiuyou was overjoyed.
This was because everything was progressing smoothly. As long as they continued to advance steadily, the bandits hiding in Fushan County would be wiped out in one fell swoop and all the dangers and troubles would be completely resolved.
Zong Ba turned and left.
In less than an hour, Zong Ba returned. He came to Meng Jiuyou's side and reported, "County Governor, I have found out. This group of people hiding in the dark is actually not many. There are only about six hundred of them. "
"The location of the ambush is about eight li away from the place where the battle took place. The place is called White Horse Ferry. They are hiding at a ferry."
"Their exact location is on the south bank of White Horse Ferry."
"That is, the place where the ferry is preparing to cross the river."
Zong Ba said, "County Governor, according to the location of their ambush. It is obvious that they are preparing to ambush Young Master when he is crossing the river and catch him off guard. "
Meng Jiuyou nodded after hearing this.
He knew the situation in Fushan County very well. When he heard the news, he said, "I understand. You may leave. Now, wait for my orders. "
"Yes!"
Zong Ba turned and left.
After Zong Ba left, Meng Jiuyou immediately ordered someone to inform Xiao Jiufei. After Xiao Jiufei entered, Meng Jiuyou explained the current situation and said, "Mister Xiao, the last group of ambushers is on the south bank of White Horse Ferry."
"I know the situation at White Horse Ferry very well."
"It is on a fast-flowing river."
"Young Master's team is going north to cross White Horse Ferry. We can send soldiers to ambush this group of ambushers. This way, everything will be safe. "
Meng Jiuyou said, "What do you think, Mister Xiao?"
Xiao Jiufei carefully thought about it after hearing this. He pondered for a while and said, "County Governor, in my opinion, we should let Young Master set out for this ambush."
Meng Jiuyou said, "Why?"
Xiao Jiufei said, "The reason is simple. The enemy must be watching the situation in Fushan County. It will be very troublesome for us to send troops secretly. Therefore, Young Master will go out of the city at a leisurely pace to attract the attention of this group of ambushers. Then, our men will quickly take a shortcut and go straight to White Horse Ferry to catch them all in one fell swoop. "
"After all, the river at White Horse Ferry is fast-flowing."
"Without the warships, it is impossible for these bandits to cross the river directly."
"So, they have no way to retreat."
Xiao Jiufei said, "Under this premise, our army can kill them until they have no way to escape. In one battle, these bandits will be completely wiped out, and Fushan County will be completely safe. "
After hearing this, Meng Jiuyou carefully thought about it. His eyes became brighter and brighter. He said, "That makes sense."
Xiao Jiufei said, "So, County Governor, you must inform Young Master now and ask him to cooperate. In truth, it can't be considered as cooperation. Because Young Master can travel normally this time, we can just ambush him in secret. "
Meng Jiuyou said happily, "Mister Xiao's analysis is really good and very important. Okay, I will go see Young Master now and ask him to change the plan and prepare to go to Yongye County. "
Xiao Jiufei said, "County Governor is wise!"
Meng Jiuyou did not waste any time. He changed his clothes and went straight to Du Qi's place.
He came to Du Qi's place.
Standing in the study, he bowed to Du Qi and said, "Young Master, the first wave of the ambush has been completed. And through this ambush, we have found out that there are people hiding in the dark. In addition to the people we have eliminated, there are still people hiding at White Horse Ferry, intending to ambush Young Master again. So, we have changed the plan. "
Du Qi said, "How did you change it?"
