    In fact, Ba County is not called Ba County, but should be called Bazhou, which is later known as Bazhong County. However, the Sichuan people at that time called place names very casually. They just called Bazhong and Bazhou randomly, which is wrong.  .This place is located at the southern foot of the Daba Mountains at the junction of Sichuan and Shaanxi, bordering Dazhou to the east, Nanchong to the south, Guangyuan to the west, and Hanzhong to the north.

    The terrain within the territory is high in the north and low in the south. The snow-capped mountains in the north are powerful and majestic.  In the south, Lingshan Mountain is towering and green, with unique scenery, grottoes and scenic spots, which are famous as Bashu, Taoyuan Wonderland, and Nuoshui scenery, which makes people forget to leave.

    At this time, Bazhou City was still in the hands of the imperial court and was guarded by the local Sichuan Army Lieutenant General Zhang Zuokai. However, Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai just passed by the city. Although they fought twice with Zhang Zuokai, they did not take any advantage.  Cheap.  After all, the Sichuan soldiers are at home here. Whether it is Zhang Xianzhong, Luo Rucai, or even Zhu Yuanzhang, they still have to lose three points of their momentum in these high mountains.

    Luo Rucai volunteered to stay and contain Zhang Zuokai's troops, leaving the easier-to-deal with Sweeper King and Rampage Wolf to Zhu Jun.  So Zhu Jun bypassed Zhoucheng from a distance and passed through the extremely dangerous mountainous area to the south, intending to snipe the Sweeper King and Rampage Wolf first.

    For Zhu Jun who had just entered Shu, it would have been absolutely difficult to move in the Daba Mountains, but after a winter show of training, they had barely adapted to marching in the mountains.

    For everyone, the most troublesome problem is the generals' horses It is difficult for the horses to travel in this rugged mountain forest, but the generals cannot live without horses. This is not just a matter of saving face.  Another trouble is Li Jieqiong. Without riding a horse, it would be difficult for her to keep up with the movements of the large troops.  So every time they came to a cliff or a high ridge, the soldiers would use ropes to hoist the war horses up and down. At the same time, they had to hoist Li Jieqiong up and down This little girl was quite embarrassed. Every time the soldiers used ropes to hang her up,  When hanging, he would shyly apologize for causing trouble to everyone.  Zhu Yuanzhang originally thought she was troublesome, but after thinking about it carefully, he should help her complete things like revenge even if it was troublesome. He should comfort his subordinates when their emotions needed to be comforted. Although she was not a very important subordinate,  To Zhu Jun, she was dispensable, but she represented a category of people, those whose relatives were massacred by the Thirty-sixth Battalion. There were many such people under Zhu Jun's rule, especially those from Henan and Henan provinces.  Among the people who migrated from Shanxi, three or four out of ten had some degree of enmity with the Thirty-sixth Battalion.  By helping Li Jieqiong avenge her, I believe these people will also recognize from the bottom of their hearts the leader Zhu Yuanzhang's care for them.

    The army trekked in the mountains for a long time, and finally news came from the front that the leader of the generalissimo was stationed in the front.  It turned out that Zhu Jun's vanguard had already confronted the Sweeper King and Rampage Wolf. Of course, they were not facing each other in military formations, but separated by several ravines and hills. They used scouts to face each other and beat them several times.  scale rack.

    Due to the complex terrain, both sides did not dare to move forward haphazardly. After knowing the other side's existence, they set up camp and sent a large number of scouts to wander in the mountainous area to detect the other side's military situation and at the same time grasp the nearby areas.  terrain.

    After Zhu Yuanzhang heard the news, he merged the army and the vanguard into one army. He waited in the big tent for Xu Renjie to come back and report. After a while, Xu Renjie appeared in his tent and reported seriously: "Sweeping the King's Department  There are about 20,000 people, including 15,000 of the Rampant Wolf Division, scattered among the mountains and forests in front, and all the ravines are filled with their people, and now it is difficult for the scouts to penetrate."

    "Yeah!" Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, noncommittal.

    Li Jieqiong next to her couldn't help but become anxious: "Brother Zhu Bage, how are we going to fight this battle? How can we kill the rampant wolf?"

    Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but laugh: "The two armies haven't handed over yet, and you ask me how to fight this battle? Do you really think I can win a decisive victory thousands of miles away? I don't know the enemy's combat strength or the distribution of its troops. If I do it at this time  Just slap your head on the head and formulate a strategy, and then you just wait to suffer defeat and be captured by the rampaging wolf again."

    After hearing this, Li Jieqiong blushed in embarrassment. Thinking of being caught by the wolf again, her face turned pale and her body shook.

    Zhu Yuanzhang said: "You don't have to worry. In fact, our army already has two advantages."

    Li Jieqiong was surprised: "Are there two advantages? Which two?"

    Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand to Xu Renjie, and Xu Renjie said with a playful smile: "First, our army is in the northwest, while Sweeper King and Rampant Wolf are in the southeast of our army. The terrain of Bazhong is higher in the north and lower in the south, which means that their current position is higher than  We need to stay low. As long as our army occupies a few relatively high hills and looks down, we can more easily grasp their movements, and it will also be advantageous to fight from a high position."

    "Second, the Sweeping King and Hengxinglang have surrendered to the government, which means they are the suppressing party, and we are the suppressed party. This relationship dictates that they must take the initiative to attack, while our army canStay calm and wait for them to attack.  "

    After hearing this, everyone couldn¡¯t help but nodded in agreement.  Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and glanced at Xu Renjie, with admiration in his eyes.  He took over the conversation and said: "Since the other party is attacking our defense, we only need to find out the terrain near us. The ravine on the other side is blocked so that we cannot conduct reconnaissance. If we don't conduct reconnaissance, we won't go there anyway.  .¡±

    The leaders suddenly realized and became happy immediately.

    Zhu Yuanzhang took out a pen and paper, drew the nearby terrain on the paper based on the scout's report, and then began to distribute it. He divided the army into very scattered parts, with a few hundred people here, a few hundred people there, and more than 20,000 people.  The army was divided into countless small teams by Zhu Yuanzhang, scattered across a large area in the Daba Mountains.  Wang Er, Yingshanhong, Hong Niangzi and others each led small troops and were stationed on a hilltop. They could only communicate with each other by beacon fire or messengers.

    The leaders went through the formation battle on the ground. The layout was so messy and folded that it was a bit confusing. Even Xu Renjie, who was best at commanding, couldn't help but feel dizzy after watching Zhu Yuanzhang's formation.  , asked: "Brother Zhu Bage, you have broken down the army so thinly and dispersed it. When the time comes to command it it will be a bit ahem a bit troublesome"

    In fact, this principle is like playing "StarCraft". If you organize all the troops into a team, it will be easier to command. Just click and flick the mouse forward and the whole army will go out. But if you organize the troops into a dozen  Working in a small team is very troublesome and not something that ordinary people can do.

    Zhu Yuanzhang knew what Xu Renjie was worried about, and he didn't bother to explain. In his previous life, a million-strong army was divided into dozens of troops, and it was not like he had never commanded dozens of battles. When he occupied the entire world and had great mountains and rivers, he had to  Management matters are more complicated, so what is this child's play?  It just so happens that Xu Renjie can get some exercise¡ª¡ª

    The wind blew through the woods, making a rustling sound.

    On the top of a small cliff, two former thieves, Sweeping King and Hengxinglang, who have now become guerrilla generals of the imperial court, are sitting on the edge of a stone discussing military affairs.

    Hengxinglang was scolding: "That idiot Yang Sichang, he actually boasted in front of the emperor that he can defeat thieves in three months. It's a joke There are so many mountains in Sichuan, the road is difficult to travel, and it is difficult to travel around the middle of Sichuan in three months.  , Don¡¯t say it¡¯s a thief, it¡¯s just a dream.¡±

    The sweeping king responded unhappily: "That's right! Three months has been a dream. Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Rucai, please don't go north over the mountains and into Shaanxi" As he said this, he raised his eyes and looked far north.  There is a large snow mountain at the end of the field of vision. It should be the highest peak of the Daba Mountains. It looks towering into the clouds and very scary.  "

    Hengxinglang tilted his mouth and said: "I think the mountains in Sichuan are too weird. In such a warm southern place, there are actually snowy mountains Is it possible for people to go to such a place where birds don't poop?  Don¡¯t worry, Zhang Xianzhong and Luo Ru are the ones who can¡¯t get over it.¡±

    The Sweeping King also smiled and said: "That's true, people like that who break mountains can't get through."

    "The two of them didn't know that hundreds of years later, a team called the Red Army crossed the snowy mountains in the Daba Mountains during the Long March, entered Shaanxi from Sichuan, and established a revolutionary base.  They are also a rebel army, but the Red Army is undoubtedly a hundred times more sophisticated than Zhang Xianzhong, Luo Rucai, Hengxinglang and Sweeping King.

    The two of them cursed at the Daba Mountain Range again and vented their anger. Then they regained their mood and said, "Zhu Ba is blocking the road ahead, what should we do?"

    "Beat him!" Hengxinglang sneered: "Others say Zhu Ba is great, but I, Hengxinglang, are not afraid of him. Are you afraid?"

    The sweeping king also laughed ferociously: "I even dared to burn down the emperor's mausoleum in Fengyang, how could I be afraid of Zhu Ba?" At this point, he said a little proudly: "I burned down Fengyang, and those gangsters in the court are still here.  You have to serve me obediently as usual, I think this court is really a bit timid."

    Hengxinglang laughed and said: "It's better to be cowardly. Heroes like us will definitely be the most powerful generals in the future. It should be no problem to be a protector of the country or something, hahaha. Okay, let's go and kill Zhu early tomorrow morning.  Eight, I will have a good time tonightthe two Sichuan girls caught in the village yesterday haven't enjoyed it yet, hahahaha."

    The sweeping king said: "You are now a guerrilla general of the imperial court, why are you still going around snatching women?"

    Hengxing Lang snorted: "What's wrong with becoming an officer and a soldier? I've seen Zu Kuan's tribe snatch money and women, and Zuo Liangyu's tribe has also done it. What can't I do? If I hadn't seen that I could do it if I became an officer and a soldier."  If you continue to burn, kill and loot, I don't care about being an officer or soldier." After saying that, he turned around and walked back to his tent.

    As expected, there were two poor Sichuan girls tied up in the tent. They were only twelve or thirteen years old. Rampant Wolf walked over with a sinister smile on his face and caught one of the little girls., stretched out his hand and ripped her clothes off.  Although the girl is small, she is also a tough Sichuanese, and her unyielding character is engraved in her bones. She turned her little head, opened her mouth and bit Xing Xinglang's hand, and bit out two deep rows on the back of his hand.  The blood mark Hengxinglang was furious. He took out the saber from his waist with his other hand and chopped it hard on the little girl's neck. Immediately, a rain of blood spurted out Hengxinglang killed a little girl but  Without any guilt, he turned his attention to another little girl and said with a cruel smile: "If you dare to resist, she will be your role model"

    Before he finished speaking, there was a "pop" sound, and a spittle was spat on his face. The rampant wolf was furious and slashed out with another knife. The blood spurted out again, and another wisp of fragrant soul disappeared
