The farmer was preparing for the war in full swing, and Xiang Yan's army also drove to the Daze Mountain.

Xiang Yan sat on the horse, his red horse walking steadily. His horse whip pointed at the slowly retreating scenery and said to the left and right: "Along the way, Daze Mountain radiated hundreds of miles, all owned by farmers. The land is fertile and the houses are flat. It is said that there are 100,000 farmers. Even if it is not as good as that, I am afraid it is not far away. Moreover, these bandits actually know how to strengthen the walls and clear the fields, which surprised me."

"These mud legs of the Shangzhu Kingdom will know that Qingye will be cleared. Their solid walls will not have any effect on my Tenglong Legion."

"Yes, hahaha."

"Yes, the 100,000 regular troops attacked 100,000 mud legs, which was like killing chickens with a slaughter~"

The generals were filled with a breath of happiness.

At this time, a horse came from behind and shouted, "Report, Shangzhuguo, all the scouts who should be rewarded on time today have not returned."

"Well~"

Xiang Yan held the horse down, and his majestic face under the armor was filled with haze, "Didn't you all return?"

“Yes, all are not returned.”

The generals began to communicate with each other and talked in a low voice.

Xiang Yan looked at the main road leading to Daze Mountain in front and said, "The Daze Mountain is ahead. It seems that these bandits are going to fight stubbornly. Send scouts to explore again."

"promise."

The result of the additional scouts did not change much. The entrance to this dignified main road seemed to have become a man-eating beast, and no scout who explored the way did not come back.

"One thousand infantry is the front, push forward first. The elite cavalry followed closely and rushed over when they heard the sound of killing."

A thousand heavily armored infantry appeared in the eyes of the Shennong Hall with heavy steps, and some people couldn't help asking: "Master, do we kill these iron lumps?"

Zhu Zhong inserted the short sword back into the scabbard and greeted him, "Hmph, Xiang Yan's army is coming in, let's retreat first. We will kill those who are exploring the way through the forest. Those people are so talented. Only after killing them will Xiang Yan feel distressed. Do you understand?"

"Okay, I understand, Master."

"Let's go."

Therefore, Xiang Yan's army entered Daze Mountain without encountering any twists and turns, as if the death of all the two scouts had never happened.

When he marched to a place, he looked at the extremely simple and incomplete map in his hand, compared the terrain and ordered the entire army: "Camp on the spot and block the northern exit of Daze Mountain."

After walking for a while, the team set up the camp. Assuming that the exits of Daze Mountain 5th Road had been blocked, Xiang Yan sat in the central army's tent and breathed a sigh of relief.

He sat in the general's position and stared at the incomplete information map in front of him, and recited: "Those who have lost water, welcomed the tomb, and fought against the current, live in the land and welcomed all the trees are the most important thing. The terrain of this Daze Mountain is rugged, covered with forests, with complex hydrology, and dangerous military terrain."

"The order to ask the scouts to step up their surveys and draw maps."

"No." The guard next to him held his fists and took the order, turned around and walked out.

Xiang Yan called him again and said, "Slowly, remember to call more elite boys to guard the scouts."

"promise!"

"The Sixth Farmer Hall, the Master of the World... It's a little troublesome now..."

He probably knew what the farmer had intended, but he was just wandering in the mountains and forests, hunting and exploring scouts, which made him unable to fully understand the terrain.

"Come to come, let the scouts and infantry guards go out carry bows and crossbows, and carry more arrows. Don't be too greedy for far away, and survey them slowly bit by bit."

The messenger who walked in outside the tent quickly took the order and left.

...

Next to an unknown stream in the valley, the scout team that was exploring the path was observing the moss grass by the water, and some infantry guarded.

A sudden sound of "Kill!" came from beside him.

A wave of crossbow arrows flew past, and more than a dozen peasant disciples jumped out, quickly killed the scouts, and then left.

Such things keep happening everywhere in the mountains and forests. None of the ten scout teams sent out remain.

Xiang Yan had to match each scout team with good soldiers, and even dispatched thousands of troops, supplemented with a large number of infantrymen, turning the survey team into a special forces team.

This response is effective. Although there have been huge casualties, the topographic map was finally drawn bit by bit.

However, time is also passing quietly.

He was unable to enter the peasant family for many days, and even suffered meaningless injuries. Some generals in the army could no longer sit still.

"The army of Shangzhu Kingdom has stalled and the morale among the army has declined greatly. When will we annihilate those bandits?"

"Yes, the soldiers are eager to make contributions. Will my Tenglong Legion, who will fight a group of mud legs, and still surround the mountain and slowly waste them to death?"

"The Shangzhu Kingdom, with 100,000 farmers, can they still hide in the mountains to fight guerrilla warfare? There must be an old nest. I think we should follow the road and directly hit the Yandi Valley. The inheritance of the bandits' ancestors was taken away, and it seems that they can't come out!"

"Yes! Go straight to the Yandi Valley."

"Shangzhu Kingdom, advance."

Xiang Yan spread the map he was currently drawing on the table, pressed his sword and stood up, "Look at these unexplored places, what are the clues?"

"From my camp to the south, the direction of General Xiang Liang leading to Jingzhe Slope is actually unknown. This must be the key path that the bandits pay attention to."

Xiang Yan nodded and praised: "Yes, judging from the current situation of scouts in all directions, it is the key defense of the bandits, and it is a place called the Spring Equinox Stream.

Xiang Liang was attacking Jingzhe Slope. According to me, this Spring Equinox Stream is likely to be able to reach the back of Jingzhe Slope, so the bandits should focus on preventing our army from catching it.

I want to send three thousand troops as the vanguard, five thousand men to suppress the rear army, and advance to the south of the Spring Equinox Stream. First, draw a map, and second, if the Spring Equinox Stream can really reach the back of Jingzhe Sloam, then the enemy facing Xiang Liang will be frightened and help him conquer Jingzhe Sloam in one fell swoop."

The generals in the tent praised him together: "The country on the top of the pillar is wise."

...

Spring Equinox Stream

The Chu army had three thousand fronts and five thousand backs moved south cautiously, and Zhu Zhong, who was ambushing his disciples, was a little difficult to get off the road.

The other side, one in front and one behind, can stabilize the rescue even if they encounter a surprise attack. Once the disciples he led are caught in a head-on battle, it is hard to say that they are killed or injured.

"Master, are we really letting them over?"

"Yes, Master, fight."

Zhu Zhong thought of the plan behind and gritted his teeth and shouted: "Kill!"

"Twenty-fourth Earth!"

There were more than 3,000 peasant disciples rushing out from both sides, forming a formation and crashing into the 5,000 team of the rear army.

The rear army was attacked without any chaos. Under the shouts of the main general, they quickly changed their formation and counterattacked. The front army also turned around and concealed the killing, and the battlefield was in chaos.

The Chu army had 8,000 people, and faced the attack of 7,000 people from the peasant family, and quickly seized the upper hand and gradually gained the upper hand in the fight.

Zhu Zhong led the way to rush towards the opponent's commander, and countless Chu soldiers surrounded him fearlessly to protect his general.

He paid some price to finally kill the chief general, causing chaos in the Chu army and the battle situation of the peasant disciples improved slightly.

The fight lasted for a long time, and the tinkling stream of the vernal equinox stream could not flow. Four or five thousand corpses were left here, with the viscous smell of blood attracting countless birds and beasts that feed on the corpses.

Zhu Zhong was still scared when he fought in this ambush. He attacked and had twenty-four land zodiacs, but he was only one-to-one with the Chu army. This was the killing of the opponent's general, and the battle behind him...

Xiang Yan knew that there were at least 7,000 teams in the Spring Equinquer Stream. He calculated the battle circle of scouts everywhere in his mind and roughly confirmed, "The main force of Shennong Hall should be this team. The enemy guarded the Spring Equinquer Stream to the death. It seems that we have found the right place.

The Qiufen Ridge facing Xiangqu is Chiyou Hall, the Jingzhe Slope facing Xiang Liang is Kuiwei Hall, Long Yi is in Bailuyan and Gonggong Hall, Long Hu is in Xiaohan Mountain and Siyue Hall, and there is also a Lieshan Hall missing.

Hurry up the army and advance southwest.”
