At this point, Qiqitao has completely opened up his own transportation line and does not have to worry about the problem of the retreat. The continuous supply of supplies is transported along the Jialing River and then transported to Qiqitao by land.

The sufficient supplies gave Qi Qitao the confidence to fight Zhang Xianzhong, and the army began to enter Sichuan continuously. The forward was approaching Zitong! After four days of fierce battle, Zitong was conquered, giving Jianmen Pass and Baoning Mansion a barrier!

Unlike in the past, Qiqitao, who entered Sichuan, was not like an attack that was as fierce as the outside world. Instead, he took steady steps and stabilized one place when he occupied one place. He began to patiently sort out local government affairs, counted the inside, allocated land, and carried out spring plowing.

This is because Qi Qitao knew one thing, that is, Zhang Xianzhong had nowhere to escape now! Maybe he could escape into the mountains with some of his confidants, but his troops would definitely not be able to escape!

The mountains seem to be very rich in food, but it definitely cannot provide the needs of the army! Hundreds of thousands of people flocked into the mountains, and the only possibility is to starve to death or kill each other! Therefore, Qi Qitao is very sure to encircle and annihilate the Western Army on the Chengdu Plain!

And it doesn’t matter even if Zhang Xianzhong escapes! It’s not the early years now. As long as he shakes the flag, a large number of refugees gather!

You know, it is a rare thing for the people in the West Railway Station area! Moreover, the ethnic minorities here live in the mixed place, and the local chieftains are the ones who really speak well! So once Zhang Xianzhong only brought a few people to show up in front of them, he would be tied up and sent to the court in exchange for rich rewards and stricter and longer-term chieftain rule!

With the occupation of Baoning Mansion, Qi Qitao really opened a gap in the mountains around Sichuan and extended his tentacles into the Chengdu Plain! For this reason, Zhang Xianzhong had to withdraw the small troops that raided Shandong's military and food routes because they had lost their meaning!

Because he was not able to transport a large army across the Jialing River, and the scattered troops did not have enough combat strength after crossing the Jialing River, and they just died in vain! So the matter went around and returned to frontal combat.

Under Zitong City, Zhang Xianzhong took the initiative to retreat when the two sides fought in a strategic battle.

.Because he knew that his troops could not be taken back to Zitong City! Instead of wasting his troops here, it would be better to retreat and gather together to prepare for the decisive battle.

But strangely, after Miracle Tao occupied Zitong City, he left a mobile team and all other troops were dispersed and devoted to spring plowing and repairing water conservancy facilities. This made the Western Army very confused!

After Liu Pei learned the news, he admired Qi Qitao's flexible response. Because from the map, Zitong City, Jianmen Pass and Baoning Mansion were surrounded by a huge triangle, protecting the entire Baoning Mansion behind him.

Baoning Mansion accounts for almost one-sixth of the entire Sichuan area. As long as it is managed properly in this area and there is a normal harvest for spring farming this time, the army will have a foundation for operating the southwest! After all, food is the only hard currency in the troubled times!

Qi Qitao plans to use small troops to attack for a short period of time during this period to hold the Daxi Army. When the Daxi Army prepares for the decisive battle, they will find that they have no food in their hands!

Because all those who can fight are gathered together to prepare for war! At that time, as long as Qiqi shakes her food bag a few times, a large number of Western troops will turn against each other!

Qi Qitao has thoroughly understood Liu Pei's idea! He knew that what Liu Pei wanted was not a country full of soreness, but a complete country! Especially in Sichuan, a place with a large population, as long as enough population is moved to the northwest, Liu Pei's plan to march north will be safe.

Because on the long journey of Liu Pei's expedition to the Ural Mountains, he needed a large population to confuse the local culture, language and religion. In order to achieve this goal, there is no more suitable place than Sichuan.

So when Qi Qitao reported his combat plan to Liu Pei again, Liu Pei agreed without saying a word because it was much better than his original plan!

Liu Pei also wrote a letter, specifically asking Qi Qitao to slow down the attack speed and make sure to reduce the war in Jiangnan until the complete completion of the specific reason! Liu Pei explained in detail the specific reason in the letter.

He told Qi Qitao that this matter involved the entire strategy of the Southwest. Liu Pei asked him to calm down.

After deciding Sichuan, you must be prepared to send troops to Yunnan and Guizhou at any time! At the same time, in the letter, Liu Pei also asked Qi Qitao to marry local native women as much as possible and build the road to Yunnan and Guizhou as much as possible.

After receiving Liu Pei's letter, Qi Qitao did not fully understand Liu Pei's specific arrangements, but he would definitely do it according to Liu Pei's requirements without changing. Over the years, he and Liu Pei have already honed their tacit understanding.

Moreover, what Liu Pei had to do had never failed, which also gave Qi Qitao sufficient confidence. Therefore, after stabilizing the triangle area, Qi Qitao began to take turns to attack with troops of about 10,000 people, constantly infiltrating into the areas controlled by the Daxi Army and eroding their territory!

At the same time, the officers leading the troops were also selected and clever figures. These people had already conspired to develop a strategy of splitting and attacking together in private!

In other words, if they encounter small groups of troops, they will eat them alone. Small towns will be wiped out in one go! If they encounter large cities or large groups of enemy troops, the nearby people will unite to eat them! If the number of opponents is large, these people will turn around and run away, and there will be no chance of a decisive battle in the Western Army!

But not only did these people run fast, but the infantry cannons they carried were very convenient and had fierce firepower! Once the Western Army fought with them, they would suffer heavy losses! This led to Zhang Xianzhong and others being dizzy by this tactic and being unable to understand the key points!

But not only did a large number of people gathered and consumed a lot, but they also wasted the fighter's opportunity! So they also dismantled a large number of people into small units for a dragnet-style sweep! In this way, the small-scale battle between the two sides has never stopped!

Of course, Zhang Xianzhong's selfishness is also hidden in it! The purpose of his frequent battles with Qi Qitao is to imagine that he would eliminate unqualified soldiers through enough battles and train all the remaining people into elites in hundreds of battles like before!

In fact, he succeeded! It took only three or four months for his soldiers to break out at the beginning to be able to simply stand up to use the terrain to fight with Shandong soldiers and horses.
Chapter completed!
