    Guo Daxian waved his hand vigorously to drive away the big mosquitoes around him, but he could only focus on what was in front of him and not what was behind him. His buttocks were getting more and more itchy, and when he touched it with his hand, several big lumps had been sucked out by the mosquitoes.  !

    The captain of the guard stumbled over and yelled with a silly smile: "General, we have finally crossed Yujun Mountain! The vanguard reported that they will soon reach the foot of the mountain!"

    As he spoke, the guard captain Guo Gang couldn't help but shed tears. Is this trip easy?  Along the way, more than 40 or 50 soldiers fell to death on the cliff, and more than 150 people sprained their ankles and limped behind.  If these stragglers and wounded soldiers cannot get out of the dense forest before dark, they will become prey of wild beasts!

    Guo Daxian sighed, then picked up his energy and said to Guo Gang: "Wealth and wealth are found in danger. No matter what you say, we finally came out!"

    Guo Gang bowed and asked: "General, is our next step to attack the enemy checkpoint at Yujun Mountain? We have to take a rest first, otherwise the soldiers will be very tired and will not have enough physical strength to participate in the attack!"

    Guo Daxian shook his head repeatedly: "Time waits for us, how can we have time to rest! However, let's not attack Yujun Mountain, but rush to Qinshui!"

    "Towards Qinshui?" Guo Gang repeated in surprise.

    Guo Daxian smiled and nodded, "Rush to Qinshui! If we attack Yujun Mountain and cut off Xu Rong's retreat, then he will probably fight us head-on and fight to the death. What good will this do to us?"  Anyway, Xu Rong has concentrated his main force at the Yujun Mountain pass, so we can simply attack Qinshui and plunder Qinshui¡¯s warehouse! Besides, even if the war goes against us, we can retreat to our base along Qinshui!"

    "Robbing the Qinshui warehouse?" Guo Gang whispered: "This is not very authentic. Besides, our army is composed of elite soldiers selected by each army. Will they obey the general's order?"

    Guo Daxian laughed loudly. In Guo Gang's surprised eyes, he whispered: "Who doesn't love gold and silver treasures, and who wants to die in war? Gangzi, your kid's understanding of people's hearts is still not good enough!"

    As he expected, later, after Guo Daxian announced that the target of the attack was Qinshui, only a few dozen of the nearly 800 troops hesitated to express opposition.  However, with the guarantee of Guo Daxian's freedom to come and go, these dozens of people finally chose to obey the order.  After all, they have few people. If they encounter Cao Jun after leaving the large army, they will only die.

    Guo Daxian was very happy after receiving the command of the troops.  Even if he has five thousand troops, how can those rabble be compared with these elite soldiers!  Under his command, eight hundred elite soldiers immediately rushed towards Qinshui.

    In Qinshui County Government Office, Zhou Dao paced back and forth in the lobby, very hesitant.  News came from Yu Junshan that Xu Rong had been locked in a fierce battle with the Black Mountain Army.  Qinshui is relatively calm. The 500 regular troops and 800 young men in my hands are idle, what a waste!

    Guo Wei, the gatekeeper of Qinshui County, bowed his hands to Zhou Dao and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the County Magistrate is currently fighting a life-and-death struggle with the enemy in Yujun Mountain. We stay here in the county government and have nothing to do.  There must be something wrong. Although a certain person is not talented, he is also proficient in martial arts. He is willing to lead more than a hundred government officials to Yujun Mountain to reinforce the county magistrate! "

    Zhou Dao shook his head, "No! Qinshui City still needs these government officials to suppress it. If we pull them all away, it will inevitably cause turmoil!"

    Guo Wei nodded repeatedly: "Your Excellency, you have thought carefully. How about I take the young and strong people I recruited out of the city for reinforcements? Anyway, as long as we hold Yujun Mountain, we can prevent the enemy from going south."

    Zhou Dao nodded slightly, frowned and said: "What you said makes sense, but it would be too risky to go out to the city for reinforcements"

    "Sir!" Guo Wei said in a deep voice: "I, Guo Wei, have been in Qinshui for these years. Only the county magistrate and you understand the suffering of the people and do light corvee. It is really a role model for us. Now I can serve the county magistrate and you  I, Guo Wei, am really willing to share some of my worries! Please give me your order, sir!"

    "Okay, okay! Okay!!" Zhou Daoshu raised his brows and said loudly: "The strong wind knows the strong grass, and the rough wind knows the loyal ministers! It's just that we don't have the authority of the county magistrate, and we can't send out the whole army. Let's do this. We have recruited a total of eight  Bai Qingzhuang, you lead 300 people to Yujun Mountain first. If the county magistrate agrees, you will send someone here with his handwritten letter, and I will order the young people to go to reinforce. What do you think?"

    Guo Wei sighed and said: "Sir, rules are dead but people are alive. Why don't you act accordingly!"

    Zhou Dao shook his head, "The rules are the rules! How can they be changed casually?!"

    Guo Wei tried to persuade him a few more times, but he could only agree and go to Qingzhuang Camp.Select the accompanying soldiers.

    When he arrives at the camp, his confidants will come to serve him.  Seeing that he was surrounded by familiar people, one person asked in a low voice: "Sir, shall we proceed as planned?"

    Guo Wei sighed and lowered his voice and said: "Zhou Dao is really following the past. He said that without Xu Rong's order, he could not mobilize troops without authorization. He only agreed that I would lead 300 people out of the city. Only 300 people are useless, and it is not enough.  Let¡¯s attack Xu Rong¡¯s target from behind! Let¡¯s do this, let¡¯s all lead separate groups to pick out all our confidants, and let¡¯s concentrate our efforts to seize the north gate of Qinshui, so that we can welcome the heroes of the Black Mountain Army!¡±

    Everyone nodded and went their separate ways.  It turns out that Guo Wei felt that since Cao Ang came to power, he was very dissatisfied with the light taxation and corvee labor, which made his oil and water less and less.  It happened that Guo Daxian sent someone to win over him and promised him the position of county captain, and Guo Wei was immediately moved.

    Xu Rong¡¯s previous investigation of Guo Daxian¡¯s subordinates was very hasty. He only arrested the secretaries who had sneaked into Qinshui in the past few days, and did not find Guo Wei.  But since Guo Wei had already boarded the pirate ship, how could he dare to disembark easily? What if Xu Rong knew the inside story of his rebellion later, would he be allowed to do so?  !  Therefore, Guo Wei was more focused on resisting Xu Rong, but Zhou Dao was really thoughtful in arranging things this time, so that he could not find a chance to rebel, and in the end he had no choice but to take the initiative.

    Half an hour later, more than 300 soldiers were selected, all of them young and strong soldiers who were dissatisfied with Cao Ang's new policy.

    Guo Wei took them straight to the north gate. When they arrived at the north gate, they saw that the city gate was tightly closed and there was no one idle on the street.

    Guo Weiwei shouted: "Who is on duty on the city?"

    Hearing his cry, the thief Cao Xulie shouted loudly: "Xu Lie is here, who is in the city? What's the matter?"

    Hearing that it was Xu Rong¡¯s confidant Xu Lie, Guo Wei quickly put on a smile and said with a smile: ¡°It turns out it¡¯s Brother Xu, it¡¯s me, Xiaowei!¡±

    Xu Lie poked his head out from the city gate and asked in surprise: "It turns out to be Xiaowei. What are you doing with so many people?"

    Guo Wei sighed and said loudly: "No, the county magistrate asked me to lead people to take over the defense of the north gate, and let you go down to the city to rest for a while so as not to exhaust your energy. Brother Xu, the county magistrate is very kind to you. If you do it in the future  Now that you are prosperous, don¡¯t forget to support me, my brother!¡±

    Xu Lie frowned slightly, "You said Zhou Dao asked you to replace me? Do you have the troop transfer documents?"

    Guo Wei said impatiently: "Brother Xu, what kind of friendship do we have? Why do you still doubt me?! No, here is Zhou Xian Cheng's document! Do you want to open it in person to verify it? My thief Mr. Cao  !¡±

    Hearing what Guo Wei said, Xu Lie had the nerve to step forward to verify, and said with a smile: "No, no, you wait, we will go to the city right now."

    Guo Wei smiled and nodded, and whispered to the nearby men: "After they come down to the city, we will seize the city gate immediately. We must be quick, accurate and ruthless, and we must not show mercy to them! Especially Xu Lie, who is  He is Xu Rong¡¯s confidant, killing him is a great achievement!¡±

    Everyone nodded, indicating that they had heard the order.

    Guo Wei looked around, "Life, death, wealth, and wealth all depend on this!"

    He was about to say some more encouraging words when he heard Xu Lie from the tower shouting loudly: "Fire the arrow!"

    Before Guo Wei could react, he saw more than a hundred archers pouring out from the edge of the battlement, and they started shooting at his men with all their strength.  Along with the sound of arrows, hundreds of well-armored soldiers slowly approached on the long street behind him. They were Cao's regular troops.

    Guo Wei's men were completely unprepared. They all dreamed of getting promoted and getting rich. When they were covered by the arrows, they immediately panicked.  The clever soldiers knew how to raise the soldiers in their hands, while the ordinary soldiers fell under the rain of arrows.  Some soldiers were lucky enough not to be shot in the vital parts and screamed involuntarily.

    Guo Weiwei was shocked. How did Xu Lie see through him? He turned aside, hid behind the guard, and raised the wooden shield.  Before he could stand up and speak, the guard had been hit by several arrows and fell to the ground dead!

    Guo Weiwei shouted: "Xu Lie, what's going on? How can you shoot arrows randomly?! We are all loyal people here, you crazy bastard!"

    Xu Lie didn't speak, but just stepped aside, and saw Zhou Dao standing at the top of the city, shouting loudly: "Rebel Guo Wei, I'm Zhou Dao here! I have only been working with you for a short time, but I know  You are a guy who is greedy for life and afraid of death. How can a person like you take the initiative to go to the battlefield?! I became suspicious at that time. Considering that your crime has not yet been exposed, I kept quiet and waited for the opportunity.  ! Sure enough, you actually claimed that I asked you to come here to change defenses because you must have wanted to dedicate the city gate to the Black Mountain bandits, and your heart is to be killed!"

    Zhou Dao rebuked loudly, and Cao Jun bowedThe gunman fired with all his strength. By the time Zhou Dao finished speaking, only forty or fifty of the three hundred people around Guo Wei could stand.

    Guo Wei, whose intentions were discovered by Zhou Dao, kept doing nothing and shouted loudly: "Yes, I want to dedicate the city! I am a Qinshui person, and I can't watch the lives of Qinshui be ruined! What's wrong with dedicating it to the Black Mountain Army? People  How many soldiers and horses do we have? How many men and horses do we have?! Are you staying here to wait for death?! Zhou Dao, follow me wisely and join Guo Shuai, and you will have your own wealth, otherwise"

    Zhou Dao didn¡¯t wait for him to finish, and shouted loudly: ¡°Shoot!¡±
