Six Hundred Thirty-Nine: Let Go of that Coach, Let Me Do It (16)

Jiang Pengji's side had the advantage, but as a siege party without any siege equipment, it was already very good to achieve such results.

She said, "The weather is cold now, and corpses are not easy to rot. The remains of soldiers should be restrained and sent back."

According to the custom of war, the bodies of soldiers are usually disposed of on the spot.

First, there were too many corpses, which was difficult to transport and was labor-intensive.

Secondly, the weather was bad and it was difficult to preserve the bodies. There were many accidents during the march and it was inconvenient to carry the remains of the soldiers.

However, it was cold and freezing at the moment, so the corpses were less likely to rot and get maggots.

Jiang Pengji planned to have them sent back to their hometown instead of burying them in a foreign land.

Yang Si's eyes widened slightly, as if he was surprised by Jiang Pengji's decision. After a while, he said in a low voice, "Yes."

The situation in Kinmen County is far poorer than Jiang Pengji imagined. The houses are dilapidated and low-rise, and the doors of every household are closed.

Occasionally, people would look out through the cracks in the door. If Jiang Pengji glanced over, they would immediately retract their heads.

Jiang Pengji formulated strict military orders. Marching and fighting must not disturb the people. Any violation will be dealt with according to military law.

"Let the soldiers rest for a while, eat something, and regain their strength. We will turn back and act according to our plan."

Jiang Pengji breathed a long sigh of relief and thought about the battle plan she had made before.

Yang Si nodded and passed on the order for Jiang Pengji.

The Pioneer Battalion is the most elite fighting part of the entire team, but Kinmen County has just been captured and it is impossible to leave anyone to defend it.

Therefore, before setting off, Jiang Pengji had informed Qi Guanrang, asking him to dispatch more than a thousand troops from the Chinese Army to temporarily take over Kinmen County.

According to her calculations, it would be too late for them to eat up the Red Lotus Sect's ambush and then turn around to Kinmen County.

The news from the Red Lotus Sect was lagging behind and took a long time to deliver. When they wanted to send troops back to Kinmen County, not only Xu Ke's siege equipment had arrived, but Jiang Pengji also arrived at the destination with the vanguard battalion. If the Red Lotus Sect wants to attack Kinmen County, which is at its peak, it will definitely use heads!

After resting for about two hours, Qi Guan asked the soldiers sent over to arrive.

Jiang Pengji took a few bites of dry food, drank some warm water, turned over and sat on Xiaobai's horse, and raised her arms.

"Set off!"

Behind him, Kinmen County is crawling on the ground, like a sleeping giant, gradually moving away and disappearing on the horizon.

According to the battle plan, Jiang Pengji will lead people to hide on the mountain road leading to Kinmen County this time.

On the other hand, the troops transferred from Kinmen County finally arrived in Fenghu County after many twists and turns.

The "counselor" scholar of the Red Lotus Sect was almost moved to tears.

Qi Guanrang repeatedly provoked and threatened, and the scholar always thought that he would receive news of Jiang Pengji's attack on the city in the next second.

I wanted to capture Jiang Pengji's scouts and kill them as a warning to boost our own momentum. However, these scouts were as slippery as loaches and could only find traces of others but could never catch them. This made the bookish boy angry. Anger is rising.

But now, all the troops from Kinmen County have arrived. Can the combined troops from the two counties still hold back Liu Xi?

The scholar felt full of security, and all uneasiness was dispelled.

"Liu Thief has gone too far to deceive others. I must give him some color to show him how powerful our holy religion is."

The scholar secretly gritted his teeth, and the outflanking plan he had thought up before once again occupied his mind, and his heart was racing... He had been frightened and frightened by others for so long with scouts, and now he had the upper hand, how could he find a way to regain the ground and let Liu Xi hide his face? damage?

Thinking of this, the scholar began to mobilize his troops and dispatched more than 3,000 people to prepare for a sneak attack on the small town and ambush Jiang Pengji.

Within the Red Lotus Sect, the scholar has great authority. Almost no one except the leader can order him to withdraw his plan.

but……

The leader of the Red Lotus Sect, who led the Kinmen County troops and rushed over to support, was dissatisfied.

The leader said, "Military advisor, our army has rushed all the way from Kinmen County to Fenghu County. The followers are extremely tired. Why don't we give them some time to rest?"

Speaking of this, the scholar suddenly became very angry.

He said sternly, "Soldiers are very fast, and fighter opportunities are fleeting. If I delay the opportunity for you and give the Liu thief a chance to breathe, will I take on this responsibility or will you take it? What's more, from Kinmen County When you arrived at Fenghu County, you took the official road, and the road was smooth. How much physical energy could you use? I haven't charged you with being slow to support me, and you almost gave Liu Thief an opportunity!"

If he hadn't played the truth with the truth, Liu Xi might have known that Fenghu County had insufficient troops.

What should we do if we attack the city before reinforcements from Kinmen County arrive?

It's good that the scholar didn't hold this leader accountable, but he still wants to rest and delay the fight?

After hearing this, the leader's face turned from white to blue, and the anger in his heart was burning.

If he wasn't afraid of the scholar's status within the Red Lotus Sect, he would have brushed him off.

Who can give him the courage to cut his own face when he can only beep but not fight?

The scholar said arbitrarily and authoritatively, "Order all the troops and horses to defeat the Liu bandits and boost the power of our holy religion!"

They dreamed of annihilating Jiang Pengji and making great achievements, but they didn't know that there were already several traps waiting for them ahead.

After capturing Kinmen County, Jiang Pengji ordered messenger soldiers to pass the news to Qi Guanrang, who was in charge of the Chinese army.

"Let me know about this matter. Inform the lord and act according to the plan."

Qi Guanrang was reassured when he heard that Kinmen County had been captured and that the vanguard battalion led by Jiang Pengji was on the road after a short rest.

At this time, the scouts in front also sent back intelligence one after another, and the troops of Kinmen County had arrived in Fenghu County.

Qi Guanrang raised his eyebrows when he heard this and ordered the scouts to go and spy again.

"If there are signs that Fenghu County has mobilized troops out of the city, report back immediately and notify all the scouts to return."

Not long after, Qi Guanrang received the news from the scouts - there was movement in Fenghu County.

He raised his eyebrows and sneered coldly.

The counselors guarding Fenghu County were really brainless.

But it was also thanks to the other party's brainlessness. If they had brains, they only needed to delay for another day, and they would definitely receive the news that Kinmen County had been lost. At that time, they would know that all this was calculated, and they would be more cautious in doing things, and maybe they could reduce losses.

It's a pity that they only knew how to talk about war on paper, thinking that the war situation would develop as they imagined.

Little did they know that daydreams are beautiful, but Jiang Pengji is too efficient in fighting.

Before nightfall, Qi Guanrang led his men to retreat from the small town and enter the mountain road leading to Fenghu County, using himself as bait and pretending to attack.

The Red Lotus scouts who were keeping a close eye on the small town quickly passed the news back.

After receiving it, the scholar was overjoyed.

"God help me! This time, I will definitely make Liu the thief lose a lot of money. Whoever can capture Liu the thief alive will be rewarded with a thousand taels and countless beauties!"

According to the scholar's script, the Red Lotus sent heavy troops to block several exits of the mountain road, and sent 3,000 members out of the city to sneak in from the entrance of the mountain road, blocking Jiang Pengji's retreat from behind, and besieging Jiang Pengji from the front and back on the mountain road, and finally capturing her alive!

A perfect script.
