Do you have the strength to force me to join the Liangshan bandits?

Chapter 692 Qin Ming: Bring it on! [2 Updates]

Although Lin Chong and Jin'er were a second wife, Cai Fu still arranged a relatively grand wedding for them.

This made Lin Chong very grateful to Cai Fu, and from then on he had a family again and was no longer alone.

Lin Chong and Jin'er were newlyweds, and Cai Fu waited for them to enjoy their blissful days before finally deciding on the secondary capital.

Since Cai Fu wanted to focus his strategic efforts on the Jin state, he would definitely send a large army there after securing Tanzhou.

The transfer of hundreds of thousands of troops required a considerable amount of preparation time, and the journey could not commence until a month later.

Cai Fu, along with Lu Junyi, Lu Zhishen, Guan Sheng, Wu Song, and the "Four Little Tigers," traveled to Tanzhou.

Among the generals accompanying him were Lin Chong, Du Xue, Yang Zhi, Xu Ning, Wang Yin, Fang Jie, Deng Yuanjue, Shi Bao, Bian Xiang, Sun An, and others.

Young players include Zhang Kui, Wu Shangzhi, Niu Gao, Dong Xian, Zheng Huai, Di Lei, and others.

The Blood Dragon Cavalry, the Qilin Camp, the Arhat Camp, the Double Blade Camp, the Sin Army, and the Evil Army all marched north.

In addition, there are special talents such as Shi Qian, An Daoquan, Ling Zhen, and Tang Long.

And Princess Tianshou, Zhao Fujin, Cai Ya, Li Ping'er and their group of physical education coaches.

The total force consisted of 150,000 cavalry and infantry, marching north towards Tanzhou in a grand procession.

Cai Fu arranged for Shi Xiu to remain in Qingzhou as the chief disciple. After being trained for so long, it was time for him to take charge on his own.

With advisors Zuo Mou and Wang Zuo as assistants, and generals like Li Tianrun, Lü Shinang, Yan Bixian, and Yan Bida, Qingzhou can be assured of peace.

More than half a month later, Cai Fu's army arrived in Tanzhou.

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

When Cai Fu arrived in Tanzhou, Qin Ming and Hua Xiaomei also arrived in Nanning Prefecture.

"The scenery here is so beautiful!"

Hua Xiaomei lifted the curtain and peeked out:
"It's already freezing cold up north, but here it's still springtime!"

"Yes, we'll be reaching Nanning Prefecture soon!"

Qin Ming took a deep breath and felt that the air was very sweet.

Just then, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly rang out from ahead.

Qin Ming did not panic. This was within the territory of Nanning Prefecture, and most of the cavalry were under Hua Rong's command.

However, to their surprise, several fast horses charged towards them, their armor not conforming to the Qi army's standard.

And these cavalrymen are so tall! From a distance, their feet almost drag on the ground!

Qin Ming's heart tightened, and he shouted, "Bring the staff!"

The guards driving the carriage quickly stopped it, and one of the guards accompanying them cut the hemp rope under the carriage with a knife.

With a clang, Qin Ming's spiked club fell to the ground, and his personal guards quickly handed it to him.

At this moment, the cavalrymen had arrived close. Qin Ming looked closely and saw:
What are you doing?
It turned out that it wasn't that the cavalrymen were tall, but rather that their horses were too short, all with short legs.

This resulted in those cavalrymen riding their horses like they were riding dogs, their feet almost scraping the ground...

"stop!"

Several cavalrymen surrounded Qin Ming and demanded an explanation:

"Who are you? Where did you come from? What brings you here?"

Qin Ming sneered, "Are you all blind? I'm General Hua's brother-in-law!"

"Hua Rong's brother-in-law?"

The cavalrymen exchanged a glance and burst into laughter.

"Perfect opportunity to capture him and claim the reward!"

"Oh!"

Without saying a word, Qin Ming went up and swung his spiked club, instantly blowing Ma Jun's head off, who was laughing the loudest!
The other cavalrymen were dumbfounded. At this moment, several of Qin Ming's personal guards grabbed their broadswords and charged forward!
"kill--"

Qin Ming swung his spiked club and quickly beat several cavalrymen until their heads were bleeding profusely!
"Say!"

Qin Ming held a spiked club over the head of a cavalryman and demanded in a stern voice:

Who are you?

“I am a soldier from the Dali Kingdom…” The cavalryman explained the whole story with trepidation.

It turns out that Gao Taiming, the prime minister of the Dali Kingdom, personally led an army of 50,000 to attack Nanning Prefecture!
Just yesterday, 50,000 Dali soldiers surrounded Nanning Prefecture.

Their encounter with Qin Ming while scouting the area was purely accidental yet inevitable...

"Isn't that reasonable?"

Qin Ming was both shocked and furious. He went up and struck him with his staff, shattering his skull!
After killing several cavalrymen, Qin Ming changed into the armor of a Dali soldier and went to Nanning Prefecture alone to scout.

……

Nanning Prefecture.

On the city gate tower, Hua Rong looked down at the many Dali soldiers below with a worried expression. What should he do?

Zou Yuan, the "Dragon Emerging from the Forest," said with a worried expression:
"We only have 10,000 men, and we have no chance of winning if we launch an attack."

"Nanning Prefecture is an exclave, and even if His Majesty learns of this and wants to save us, it's beyond his reach..."

What if we hold out and refuse to come out?

Zou Run, nicknamed "Unicorn Dragon," rubbed his single horn.
"If we hold our ground and don't come out, they can't get up either!"

Wei He shook his head and said nothing.

If you want to hold out, you need to have enough food and defensive equipment.

The most important thing is to hold your ground and not retreat. How can you break through the Dali army's siege of you for a year?
"We can hold out and refuse to come out, but the problem is we can't send a message to the king..."

Zou Yuan sighed: "If we can't send a message out, there will be no reinforcements, which means we'll be trapped here and die by the Dali soldiers..."

Although Huaguo is very close, it is located in the mountains with inconvenient transportation and a self-sufficient lifestyle, so it rarely has any contact with Nanning Prefecture.

Without anyone to send a message, it's impossible for them to come to the rescue on their own initiative.

"Let's hold on for now."

Hua Rong shook his head, and just as he was about to descend the city gate tower, his gaze suddenly sharpened:
"Look, the Dali soldiers are in chaos in their rear!"

"what?"

Looking around, Zou Yuan and Zou Run indeed saw chaos and fire behind the Dali soldiers!

Zou Run was overjoyed: "Could it be that reinforcements have arrived?"

Meanwhile, inside the main military tent of the Dali army, Gao Taiming, the prime minister of the Dali Kingdom, was speaking with a man with eagle eyes:
"Don't worry, Military Advisor Ha. Since Nanning Prefecture is isolated and without support, I will take it sooner or later!"

"No reinforcements will come."

The eagle-eyed man said confidently:

"The Song emperor hates the Qi king to the bone, and the Song soldiers will not come to rescue Nanning Prefecture."

"King Qi was far away in Shandong, and even if he heard the news, he was unable to help."

"The Prime Minister only needs to surround Nanning Prefecture and not let a single person escape, so that foreign countries will not receive the news and will not come to the rescue."

"Therefore, Nanning Prefecture is already in the Prime Minister's hands."

Gao Taiming laughed heartily: "We have to thank Strategist Ha for his guidance!"
"Our Dali Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom have become allies. One is in the south and the other is in the north. It is a match made in heaven!"

Just then, someone came to report:
"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! A scout has returned and gone mad for some reason, killing anyone he sees!"

"He has already killed dozens of people, and he even set fire to two military tents!"

"what?"

Gao Taiming's face darkened, feeling he had lost face in front of his allies. He looked back at his third son, Gao Mingqing:
"Bring me his head!"

Gao Mingqing was the Dingyuan General of the Dali Kingdom, and at a young age he was praised for his "unmatched bravery."

Gao Mingqing accepted the order and left with a dozen personal guards on horseback to the rear army, only to see a lone rider disappear into the distance.

"Gone! Gone!"

The soldier next to Gao Mingqing shouted:
"General Gao, that bastard killed dozens of people and then fled!"

"Humph!"

Gao Mingqing was furious and led a dozen or so personal guards on horseback to chase after the distant figure...
