Panjiawu has been reduced to ruins.

Liu Chenglin stood on top of the ruined Wubao fort wall with a pale face, and his eyes seemed to be about to erupt fire.

The attack took place on the day of Li Ze's marriage, that is, the day Liu Chenglin threw a banquet, when he was discussing with his colleagues to completely take down the last recalcitrant dock forts in Yingzhou.

This was a slap in the face that made him hurt so badly. On the high watchtower of Pan's main house, a long white banner hung down from it, and the big crimson characters were particularly dazzling.

"He is handsome and handsome to the wedding!"

Li Ze got married, and the Lu Longren gave gifts, but their gifts were blood and corpses.

Panjiawu is just a small dock fort, there are hundreds of families living in the fort, when Li Ze took Yingzhou and Liu Chenglin's army attacked, Pan Feng, the head of the Pan family, knew that he could not resist, and even if he surrendered.

After that, Liu Chenglin stationed 100 soldiers here, and Yixing Society also stationed 10 members here.

But now, these people are dead.

Their bodies could no longer be found, only their heads remained, and outside the dock fort, they were built into a Jingguan, and the head of Pan Feng, the head of the Pan family, was placed on top.

Liu Chenglin stared at the dead head with fear for a long time. He had promised to keep Pan Feng's family safe, but now, that seems to be the biggest joke.

The hundreds of families in Panjiawu are all gone, and they should have been plundered by the Lulong people, and Liu Chenglin can imagine that these people will definitely be used by the Lulong people as witnesses to show up and say, creating greater panic in Yingzhou and shaking the rule of Wuwei Jiezhen here.

The Lulong people have ruled Yingzhou for almost 20 years, and the people of Yingzhou have become accustomed to their high pressure, and their hearts are accustomed to their ferocity.

With a thud, he slammed his fist into the broken dock wall. With this punch falling, a large piece of the burnt dock wall in front of him shook a few times, and fell down with a bang, Liu Changfeng on the side was startled, grabbed Liu Chenglin and took a few steps back.

"If you don't take revenge, you won't be a man." Liu Chenglin carried his red cherry spear and strode down.

The Shenzhou Thorn Shi Duteng, who followed Liu Chenglin all the way, grabbed Liu Chenglin and said: "General Liu, calm down, you will not raise troops because of anger, you are angry at the moment, you lack the most basic calmness of a general, it is not appropriate to send troops at this time, the gentleman will take revenge, ten years is not too late, please General Liu think twice." ”

Liu Chenglin's footsteps paused slightly, and he turned his head to look at Du Teng, but Du Teng pulled his sleeves tightly and refused to relax.

"If this revenge is not avenged, how can morale be maintained? What do Yingzhou people think of us? Only blood for blood, tooth for tooth. ”

At this moment, Sun Zhi also walked over and said: "Cheng Lin, Du Thorn Shi is reasonable, the opponent is brazenly attacking, there will inevitably be a corresponding backhand, at this time we are not ready to attack in a big way, rashly attacked, there is no way to Shi Jiawu This kind of large dock fort, maybe they will fall into their trap, even if they don't have a trap, we can only fight like this, we can only itch through the boots, and let the enemy see the joke in vain." At that time, it will hurt morale even more. ”

Du Teng is an old military officer, and although Sun Zhi led the troops to fight less, he used to work in the shogunate of Henghai Festival Town all the year round, and in comparison, they were more calm.

Liu Chenglin took a deep breath, stood there for a moment, and finally nodded, "I know it in my heart." ”

Walking down the ruined walls of the dock fort, Liu Chenglin walked in front of the Jingguan who was still standing there, knelt on one knee, and slammed his left chest armor with his right hand.

"Brothers, don't go too far, and see that Liu has avenged you, cross the Meng Po Bridge again, and drink Meng Po soup again."

Stood up, turned his head away, and waved his hand, and a group of guards trotted forward and began to rein in the heads. Inside the dock fort, the searching soldiers are also coming out in a group.

In the distance, the rangers led by Li De were also returning.

Li De turned over and dismounted, walked in front of Liu Chenglin, and said with a fist: "General, it was not a simple cavalry that attacked Panjiawu, but a mixed mix of infantry and cavalry, but those foot soldiers obviously also came on horses, mules, donkeys, etc., and they also carried some simple siege tools, a small fort like Panjiawu can't resist." That's why they came so quickly and retreated so quickly. ”

"Are you from Shijiawu?"

"It can only come from Shijiawu." Li Dedao.

Liu Chenglin nodded.

"General Liu." In the city, Bao Hui, who led the search team, came over with a bag of things, came to Liu Chenglin's side, and spread out the burden he was carrying, which was some feather arrows, broken armor, and broken knives and spears.

"It's not those township soldiers from Shijiawu who are attacking, but the elite army of the Lulong people." Bao Hui picked up these things on the ground, "Although Shijiawu has received military support from the Lu Long people, a large part of their weapons are still self-raised, and standard weapons only account for a small part, but these broken blades that we searched in and out of the dock are all Lu Long's standard blades, and we haven't seen the weapons used by the Shi Jiawu villagers, so it can be confirmed that it is Lu Long's elite who attacked." ”

"Although Panjiawu is small, it can also gather five hundred villagers, plus the people we are stationed here, the armed force of six hundred people is not small, but the Lulong people can conquer Panjiawu so quickly, they can only have an absolute upper hand in terms of strength, and it should be no less than three thousand." Liu Chenglin, who calmed down, looked at everyone.

"Three thousand?" Everyone present frowned.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Lulonians have officially started war against us." Liu Chenglin snorted coldly, "Therefore, our war against them will not be postponed any longer." The longer it goes, the more troops the Lulons will send over. Now is the time of scarcity, and the Lurons suddenly attack us, with the intention of only wanting to take the preemptive advantage and make us exhausted. ”

"But in this way, if we report it back, won't they be self-defeating?" Sun Zhi said in surprise.

Du Teng shook his head: "Sun Thorn Shi doesn't know anything, just look at the Lu Long people are all cavalry, even those infantry are equipped with mounts, it means that the other party wants to fight a guerrilla war with us." If we go east, they will go west, and they want to lead us by the nose. They didn't think about occupying our territory, nor did they think about defeating our main force, they just wanted to create panic in Yingzhou, they could fight and run, but we had to worry more, and if we didn't exterminate such a guerrilla force, our internal instability would be unstable, and they wanted to use such an active force to contain our large army, forcing us to encircle and suppress this force first. But in this way, it is also into the other party's intentions, even if we finally surround and kill all this army, but they also bought enough time, once it is delayed until the autumn, I am afraid that Zhang Zhongwu will be able to turn around and mobilize enough troops in front of our Wuwei Festival Town. ”

"Du Tingshi is worthy of being an old military officer, and he broke the other party's mind with one word." Liu Chenglin nodded approvingly: "The general opposite us is a tricky figure. ”

"But what are we going to do?" Bao Hui stood up and asked.

"Now that you have seen through it, you naturally can't be led by the enemy." Liu Chenglin slammed the spear in his hand: "Li De, this enemy is handed over to you, I hope you can catch up with the enemy and destroy them." Except for your Rangers, I will give you all the cavalry in my hands. ”

"Yes!" Li De clenched his fists and promised.

"Our main force is unswervingly attacking Shijiawu. Du Thorn History, Sun Thorn History, I still need more grain, grass, weapons, and even all kinds of siege equipment, relying on Yingzhou alone cannot guarantee what my department needs. ”

Du Teng and Sun Zhi both nodded and said, "General Liu, don't worry, within ten days, we will transport your troops to Yingzhou." ”

"Bao Changshi!" Liu Chenglin looked at Bao Hui.

"What does the general command?"

"The nails you planted in the early days, now I need them to do their job. I want to know the specific number of soldiers and horses in Shijiawu, how many township soldiers, how many Lulongs, how many long-range weapons, if I can get a specific defense map, it would be better, in short, as long as it is news in Shijiawu, I want it. Liu Chenglin said.

"Understood." Bao Hui said.

"The enemy has declared war, so let's let them see what a really strong army is." Liu Chenglin turned over his horse, and took one last look at the dilapidated Panjiawu, as well as the crops outside Panjiawu, which were originally lush and green, but now they have all turned into large areas of coke, and he grabbed the war horse between his legs and ran towards the way he came.

The Yingzhou Liu Chenglin Department sounded the clarion call for war, and their target was naturally Shi Jiawu, who was now strongly supported by the Lulong people. And at this moment, less than fifty miles away from Panjiawu, which had just been broken and burned, in a huge rift valley, a cavalry was resting here.

Several horses came running from afar, and above the rift, several figures flashed, looked around for a moment, and then turned towards the rift, waving the flag a few times.

In the rift, a cavalry that had been ready to attack turned over and dismounted, and put away the weapons in their hands.

"General Fei!" The horsemen drove straight into the middle of the rift, turned over and dismounted, and bowed to a young general.

"Then where did Li De go?" The young general surnamed Fei came from the Fei family, a powerful family in Youzhou, and was also Fei Zhong's own nephew.

"The Lide cavalry is encamped thirty miles from us, and should soon find our traces. They're scouting, and we don't dare get too close," the scout said.

"Li Ze's henchmen, how can they not have a few skills?" The young general surnamed Fei laughed: "But Yingzhou is our Yingzhou, they are outsiders, where do we know everything about here." Are you about to discover us? Ha, then just leave him a little trace, and let him chase us well! ”

Around the general surnamed Fei, there was a burst of laughter.
