Mi Yuansheng led his troops to set out from the small road, crossed mountains and ridges through Dan and Tong counties, trying to avoid the main road to avoid the news leaking.

The army arrived at the border of Yuetai County, bypassed the checkpoint, and flowed down the Lishui River to reach Yuetai County.

Before leaving, Mi Yuansheng obtained the sand table of Yuetai County from Ningze. Through the information obtained by Fei Ge's letter, he marked the distribution of troops and the location of the checkpoints in various places. It was very simple to bypass it. Although it was difficult to break the mountain and break the road, he successfully arrived at his destination.

The army shuttles through the mountains and dense forests, and is unknown to everyone.

I arrived at Lishan, the northern part of Yuetai County, and ordered to stay on site for rest and rest, and wait quietly for energy and rest.

Yu Liang didn't know that at this moment, an army crossed mountains and ridges to reach the vicinity. Due to the order of the governor He Qi, Yuetai County mobilized tens of thousands of troops to assist the battlefield ahead, and the troops sent to the surrounding county town to collect military rations, the city's defense was less than 5,000, and its defense was lax.

After all, I can't imagine that anyone would accurately bypass various levels and directly arrive at Yuetai County City.

This is no wonder! Most people can't imagine that Ningze has a virtual map that can view the terrain and know the distribution of troops in various locations. What's more, there are Fei Ge who sends letters, and it's so clear that it's all about sending information by sending intelligence officers from all sixteen prefectures and counties.

Even at some secret levels, the strength of the subordinates is clear at a glance.

Facing Ning Ze's super plug-in, it's really hard to defend against.

At this moment, Yu Liang was still discussing the topic of taxation with his confidant to get more money and food.

The soldiers of Huajun were resting for a long time and were ready to go to the war with great energy.

However, there was a different situation in Yuetai County, because there was no information on important levels and the defense in the city was lax.

Late at night, Mi Yuansheng led the soldiers to go down the mountain quietly, with people holding pieces and horses covering their hooves, and quietly arrived at the foot of Yuetai City. He used crossbow arrows to suddenly attack and killed the guards on the city wall.

Then he quickly set up a ladder, and Mi Yuansheng took the lead in climbing the city wall.

The platform defenders were caught off guard and didn't know where the other party came from. They were like heavenly soldiers descending to earth.

Mi Yuansheng killed and scattered the guards, cut off the slings and opened the city gate, and the army quickly rushed into the city.

Yu Liang was sleeping soundly, and suddenly someone came to report in a panic: "Master, something big is not good!"

Yu Liang, who was awakened by the quarrel, was in a bad mood and angrily scolded his subordinates: "Why disturb people's dreams?"

"Master, something is wrong!" his subordinates responded urgently, "The soldiers and horses who came from somewhere suddenly attacked and broke through the city gate at night and had already rushed in!"

"Absurd!" Yu Liang said angrily, "Every level is tightly defended, where can the troops reach the city? Could it be that they have wings?"

"The Lord of the Palace, the subordinates dare not speak nonsense! The situation is urgent now, please lead troops to meet the enemy."

Yu Liang wanted to scold him, but suddenly heard the sound of killing outside. He was so scared that he rolled down from the bed and shouted in panic: "Come on! Take my officer's weapons and armor!"

Yu Liang panicked and put on his armor and took out his knife.

He rushed out with his troops and happened to meet Mi Yuansheng.

Mi Yuansheng led his troops to rush forward, and Yuetai County was in chaos in the melee.

The general Qiang Duan, Su Chu (chu) stepped forward with a gun, and was easily defeated by Mi Yuansheng.

Yu Liang was frightened. He didn't know how many enemy troops were in the dark night, but he only knew that the sound of killing in the city continued.

Because he could not match Mi Yuansheng, he turned around and ran away.

If the master is like this, his subordinates will naturally cherish their lives. How could they fight against Mi Yuansheng's life and death?

So the soldiers on the platform were defeated.

Yu Liang fled to the south gate, and Mi Yuansheng led his troops to catch up and killed him with one knife.

As soon as the prefect died, his military generals surrendered one after another, and the soldiers in the city gave up resistance.

After successfully conquering Yuetai County, Mi Yuansheng contacted the local chamber of commerce and asked intelligence officer Feige to send a letter to quickly pass the news back to Hua County.

At the same time, the surrendered general Kong Wen and Kong Wu were ordered to go to various checkpoints around him to surrender the defenders.

After receiving a letter from Fei Ge, Liu Yuanxiang was overjoyed and appointed Mi Yuansheng as the prefect of Yuetai County. He surrendered to Kong Wen. Kong Wu also gave him a reward and ordered him to assist Mi Yuansheng in guarding Yuetai.

He Qi fought with Lu Gong on the front line and suddenly received news that Hua County sent troops to capture Yuetai County, almost vomiting blood.

If he wanted to lead his troops back to the city to regain Yuetai County, he had to face the Lu Cong army and was in a dilemma.

When Lu Congjun got the news, he immediately attacked Heqi's camp.

In a panic, He Qi lost his composure and was captured by Lu Cong's army and fled.

The troops in Bozhou suffered heavy losses, and several generals protected He Qi to evacuate and left the battlefield halfway.

He Qi finally fled back to Miha County, and even only the remaining defeated soldiers were left.

The Lu Cong army won a great victory, followed the trend and fought all the way to Miha County.

He Qi led his troops to meet the enemy, held the city for three days, exhausted his military rations, and the soldiers were exhausted. Although he was unwilling to give up, he had to give up Miha and retreat to Jiyang County.

Lu Cong occupied Miha and immediately sent troops to Qilan County.

There are four counties in Bozhou, including Miha, Jiyang, Qilan and Yuetai. Now Yuetai is occupied by Liu Yuanxiang's army, Miha is occupied by Lu Cong's army, and Qilan is attacked by Lu Cong's army. He Qi, who was hiding in Jiyang, hurriedly asked how to deal with it.

If Qilan is captured, Ji Yang will be left to face Lu Gong in the west and Ning Ze in the east at the same time. It will be so bad. Moreover, Zhou Yu couldn't reach his hand and would be stopped halfway, and reinforcements did not exist.

If Lu conquers and Ning Ze encircles the front and back, he will definitely die.

The most headache is that Qilan County is separated by Yuetai and Jujun, with Ningze's army in the middle, and the troops cannot gather.

This is a dead end.

"Everyone, the situation is critical now, how to deal with it?" He Qi sighed.

"Lord!" said the adviser Wang Duo, "Ning Ze took advantage of our army's fierce battle with Lu Gong and sneaked Yuetai County behind his back. It was really hateful! However, there was Lu Gong in front and Ning Ze in the back. The Prime Minister was dragged by the troops in Xizhou and could not support him. We should seek self-protection in such a crisis!"

"What are the plans?" He Qi asked hurriedly.

"Report to lord!" Wang Duo replied, "You can go to Huajun and discuss exchanges with Ningze!"

"What does this mean?"

"Ningze occupied Yuetai County, and he would definitely not let go." Wang Duo said, "Lu Gong's attack on Qilan is also irresistible. Now we are separated from the Qilan County army and are isolated and have no help. It is better to exchange Qilan County for the Ning Ze army to go to Qilan and mobilize the Qilan guard general Zhang Tao to retreat to the Yuetai. Ji Yang, Yuetai is enough to stay together and can rush to each other to help each other. When Ning Ze army arrives in Qilan, Lu Gong's army will not give in. Once the two sides fight, our army can take the opportunity to recuperate and strengthen its strength."

"Ningze sent troops to seize my platform, and would you exchange it with Qilan?" He Qi said in a deep voice, "It's a great humiliation!"

"Lord!" Wang Duo advised, "A little impatience will cause chaos in the big plan. General Zhang is in Qilan County, and is far away from our army and cannot help each other. Only by enduring for a moment can he have the opportunity to reverse the situation. As long as Lu Cong and Ningze fight, I can fix it and wait for an opportunity to counterattack!"

"This..." He Qi gritted his teeth and thought, reluctantly turned to look at the others, "Do you have other strategies?"

The civil and military officials under you look at me, and I look at you, and they are all silent.

Wang Duo once again advised: "Lord, the most important thing at the moment is to protect General Zhang and his troops."

After thinking about it, He Qi finally gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! Then please sir, hurry up and rush to Huajun and persuade Ningze to exchange cities!"

"Don't worry, lord!" Wang Duo responded, "This time will surely be done."

So Wang Duo left Ji Yang and rushed to Huajun.

When he came to Huajun to explain his purpose, Liu Yuanxiang asked Ning Ze.

Ning Ze first asked Wang Duo to take a rest, but did not respond.

In the afternoon of the same day, Wang Duo went to Ningze's home to visit, delivered a box of gold and silver, and begged for the matter again.

Ning Ze accepted the gold and silver and agreed.

The next day, Ning Ze agreed to exchange the platform for Qilan and hand over the two counties. He asked Liang Teng to lead his troops and Wang Duo to set off and rush to the platform for transfer.

After Liang Teng took Wang Duo away, Liu Yuanxiang quickly asked him: "Military advisor, what is this? He Qi and Qilan exchange platforms must be deceitful! Why do you agree to this matter?"

"Don't worry, lord!" Ning Ze smiled, "The lower officials knew it naturally. They had secretly discussed with Liang Zhonglang last night. This time they went to Yuetai County. In order to exchange cities, they secretly seized Qilan and besieged the other party's army. Yuetai County could not be handed over to the other party, but we wanted to take the opportunity to seize Qilan."

"Can this plan work?"

"That's natural. The subordinates have arranged it to ensure that there is no mistake." Ning Ze said, "No accident, our army will take Qilan, and Lu Gong can also seize Ji Yang. This time, Qi cannot fight with Lu Gong. He Qi will destroy himself. How can he miss this opportunity?"

"Without He Qi as a buffer, our army will face Lu Cong directly." Liu Yuanxiang asked worriedly, "If Lu Cong's army attacks, may it resist?"

"Don't worry, lord!" Ning Ze smiled, "If Lu Gong attacks Jinzhou, Zhou Xu will definitely send troops. Our army is not an enemy that must be dealt with now for Lu Gong and Zhou Xu. Whether Lu Gong or Zhou Xu, they will not easily set up another battlefield before they decide the outcome of each other."

"That's good!" Liu Yuanxiang felt relieved.

Liang Teng led his troops to Yuetai County, and Wang Duo accompanied him all the way.

Mi Yuansheng was quite surprised when he learned about this.

Liang Teng secretly told him, and Mi Yuansheng realized it, so he sent someone to accompany Wang Duo to rush to Qilan County and saw the garrison Zhang Tao telling and exchanging the city.

Although he thought it was ridiculous, Zhang Tao agreed with He Qi's order. But he couldn't believe Liang Teng and was warned.

However, the exchange of printed letters between the two sides was very smooth, and there was nothing wrong during this period. Moreover, Liang Teng promised to ask Zhang Tao to lead troops to Yuetai County first, and Hua County's troops were defending the Lu Cong Army near Qilan County.

So Zhang Tao left the side troops to guard Qilan and led the army back to the platform.

The army was cautious all the way, without any accidents, and successfully entered Yuetai County.

However, after entering Yuetai County, Zhang Tao did not intend to hand over the troops of Qilan. Hua County confronted the Lu Cong army outside Qilan City. A partial army could defend the city. Yuetai County and Jiyang County were connected to one line and could unite to fight against Lu Cong or Ning Ze army. This was originally a city on its own, so how could it be exchanged?

It was pretty good to think about it, but that night that countless Huajun soldiers suddenly appeared in the city. Before he could react, he controlled them in his sleep. All the generals under him were captured and he did not react at all.

It turned out that Liang Teng conveyed Ning Ze's order, asking Mi Yuansheng to divide thousands of troops into disguise as people and lurk in the county city.

Zhang Tao only saw the army led by Liang Teng, but he did not expect that there would be an army that would hide in advance.
