"Marshal…Marshal ah…our military affairs are over!”
The scout rushed in front of Xu Zuhui and directly pounced on the ground, crying like a cuckoo crying blood.
"What exactly happened? Tell me quickly!”
Xu Zuhui's heart twitched as he hurriedly asked.
The scout sobbed,"Wuwu…Old General Geng's 100,000 strong army has been trapped by the Qingzhou bandits…in the Balance Valley!"”
"What is it? An army of 100,000 is trapped?"
" This…How is this possible?"
"The Qingzhou bandits only have tens of thousands of people. How can they trap General Geng's 100,000 strong army?”
"Could it be that the traitor Zhu Xianfeng can predict the future?”
All the generals were shocked when they heard this, and they all had an incredulous expression.
"Don't be anxious. Tell me the details of the military situation in Balance Valley!”
Xu Zuhui calmed himself down and said to the scout in a deep voice.
"Last night, Old Marshal Geng led 100,000 people into the valley. At first, he killed a group of bandits and fled in all directions!”
"However, when Old General Geng's main force entered the Qing Zhou stronghold, the cunning bandits actually blocked two valley entrances!”
"They even fired the Hongwu Cannons into the valley…Old Marshal Geng organized a dozen attempts to break out of the encirclement, but they were all pushed back.”
"Old Marshal Geng had no choice but to use the lives of 8,000 soldiers to protect his subordinates from breaking out of the encirclement and come to the marshal for help.”
"Marshal, please send troops to rescue Old Marshal Geng. They…they are still fighting to the death in the desperate situation, waiting for Marshal's reinforcements!”
The scout's description was full of emotion, vividly displaying the anxious mentality of a person seeking help.
If there was an Oscar winner in the Ming Dynasty, it would probably be this person.
Without a doubt.
This person was definitely not Geng Bingwen's scout.
His real identity was Zhu Xianfeng's spy leader.
After being trained by Zhu Xianfeng, his acting skills were enough to fool everyone present.
As expected.
All the generals, including Xu Zuhui, looked sad and anxious after hearing these half-truths.
"Our comrades are fighting a bloody battle in a desperate situation. We can't sit idly by!”
"General Wang is right. As long as our 100,000 troops attack, the encirclement of the Qingzhou bandits will collapse.”
"That's right. It's time to give these sinister and cunning bandits a head-on blow.”
"Marshal, please give the order. We are all willing to go to the Heavenly Peace Valley to rescue Old Marshal Geng and wipe out the bandits in Qingzhou.”
The generals were united as one and their words were filled with anger.
"Alright, since all the generals have high fighting spirit, how can I be a coward and leave my comrades in the lurch!”
Xu Zuhui swept his gaze across the generals, then suddenly pulled out his saber and shouted,""Attack the Heavenly Valley and wipe out the bandits of Qingzhou!”
"Attack the Heavenly Valley and wipe out the bandits of Qingzhou!”
"Attack the Heavenly Valley and wipe out the bandits of Qingzhou!”
"Attack the Heavenly Valley and wipe out the bandits of Qingzhou!”
The generals who were filled with fighting spirit immediately responded with three shouts.
A sinister smile flashed across the scout's excited face.
……
The first ray of sunlight from the rising sun shone on a peak of the All Ox Mountain.
The mountain range in the distance could be seen clearly.
However, Zhu Xianfeng was not in the mood to enjoy the beautiful scenery.
His gaze was focused on a winding mountain path.
There, Xu Zuhui's army of 100,000 was advancing.
"Knowing that there is a tiger in the mountain, I prefer to go to the tiger mountain. This Xu Zuhui really had the character of a Confucian general.”
"This is also forced by the situation. If he doesn't come, the Jianwen Imperial Court will definitely punish him.”
"Master, you're right. Now that the imperial court's army has all entered the trap, it's time to draw in the net.”
"Have the Guanning Cavalry gone up the mountain?”
"Replying to my lord, he had already infiltrated the valley an hour ago.”
"That's good. We can also go down the mountain and enter the valley.”
Zhu Xianfeng turned around and walked down the peak with Zhuge Liang.
About 15 minutes later.
The two of them had already arrived at the entrance of Balance Valley.
"Greetings, Master!"
Zhang Shun brought a group of warriors to welcome them.
"There's no need to be so polite!"
Zhu Xianfeng nodded and said indifferently,""Xu Zuhui's 100,000 troops are about to arrive. There's no need to guard the entrance of the valley.”
"Master, you mean to let Xu Zuhui's men enter the valley?”
"That's right. Once those 100,000 troops enter the valley, we can settle the situation with a single battle.”
"Then…Geng Bingwen's tens of thousands of soldiers?”
"You can send twenty thousand men into the valley and use the earthen jar of explosives to compress their space. The rest of the troops would lie in ambush in the mountains on both sides of the valley entrance. Once Xu Zuhui's troops entered the valley, the entire army would rush out to defend this place!”
"I understand!"
Zhang Shun bowed and went to carry out Zhu Xianfeng's orders.
Not long after.
At the mouth of the valley, 50,000 soldiers were divided into two groups.
The thirty thousand people hid in the forest beside the valley.
Another 20,000 people rushed into the valley.
When Geng Bingwen and the others saw the charging soldiers, they immediately became alert.
At this time, the Qing Zhou Army in the West Valley began to coordinate with the Breaking Ranks and suddenly launched an attack on Geng Bingwen's troops.
This time.
The remnant soldiers were already frightened birds, so they didn't have any battle strength or head-on resistance. They all fled to the East Valley.
