The world is bustling, all for profit, the world is bustling, all for profit, this sentence recorded in the historical records has exhausted the truth of the world.

The person who opened the door of the Bai family from the inside was named Bai Yong, and he was also the concubine of the Bai family.

However, Bai Yong is different from Bai Liu, this person is not only very good-looking, but also very strong in personal martial arts, so he can be reused by the Bai family's lineage and manage more than 2,000 members of the Bai family.

In order to be able to successfully buy this person, Bai Liu not only paid a lot of money, but also gave him a promise. And this promise is - once the matter is fulfilled and Bai Liu becomes the county commander, he will appoint Bai Yong as the county lieutenant. And the reason why Bai Yong believed Bai Liu's promise was because he knew the leader of the defenders from Luyang County.

Zhang An and Bai Liu took the opportunity to include all the families in the city and the families of the rich into their subordinates.

Fu Tong was optimistic about Zhang An's initiative to expand his own military strength, which was also another original intention for him to suddenly hand over the task of attacking Lixian County to Zhang An.

Next, if the war goes well, Fu Tong has a good chance to return to Xinye County with at least 20,000 or so troops, he has expanded so many military forces at once, and he is not a recruit, which will inevitably arouse the suspicion of Liu Biao, Cai Mao and others, but when they know that Zhang An, a nameless person who has not been visible in the past, has actually taken the opportunity to recruit more than 10,000 subordinates, if Zhang Yun is talking about it on the side, this suspicion will be reduced a lot.

Therefore, when Zhang An left, Fu Tong summoned him alone and told him his own concerns, the meaning was very clear, after Zhang An took Lixian County, in addition to the original defenders of Luyang County and Zhang Long's subordinates, he could take in the defenders in the county from Lixian or recruit new soldiers in the city to expand his own military strength.

In fact, Fu Tong of course hoped that when Zhang An lived in Wancheng, the number of troops would naturally be as large as possible. The more soldiers there were, the more Cao Jun would not dare to rashly attack Wanxian, and it would be able to leave enough time for Fu Tong to build a new city in Xinye County.

It's a pity that at the beginning, whether it was Liu Biao, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun, they were not optimistic about Zhang An, so when Fu Tong and Zhang An left Xiangyang City, Zhang Yun only transferred 5,000 soldiers to his cousin who were recruited from the counties of Jingzhou this year.

Zhang An and Bai Liu divided the elite soldiers in the city, the Bai family's family all belonged to Bai Liu, and the rest of the families belonged to Zhang An, and the thousandth of the old, weak, sick and disabled who were used to defend the city, after breaking the city, they were immediately killed by Zhang An himself. After all, soldiers under age have experience in the army, as long as they are trained a little, they can become elite soldiers in two or three years.

Not only that, Zhang An also had the courage to recruit another 5,000 recruits in the city, so far, if you add the 5,000 recruits who stayed in the city, he already has more than 13,000 troops in his hands, of which more than 3,000 are veterans, and the remaining 10,000 are all recruits.

……

The sudden appearance of the little character Bai Liu brought an inspiration to Fu Tong, Ma Han and Zhang Long - since a character like Bai Liu can use such a simple method to easily take down Lixian County as an internal target, then, next, Ma Han, Zhang Long and Zhao Hu led the army to attack the first target, or even attack the second target, can they all borrow such a method and use Neiying to break the city?

You must know that in addition to Zhang An's two fellow townsmen, Hou Yin and Wei Kai, who are both from Wanxian County, almost all of the rebels and bandit leaders on Lushan are from the counties around Luyang Mountain, which naturally include Pheasant County, Xi'e County and other remaining five Nanyang County counties controlled by Cao Jun. If the more clever of these leaders were to infiltrate the target county town with their own soldiers, the night attack siege battle would immediately turn into an internal city breach battle.

After repeated discussions between the three of them, for the sake of prudence, Fu Tong finally made a decision.

Because Jin Jue particularly emphasized Du attacking this person, Zhang Long, who was ordered to attack Xi'e County, still chose to follow the old method of Jin Jue's army to attack the city at night - and was not allowed to send internal response to Xi'e County in advance. He was afraid that in order to take advantage of the trick, he sent people to infiltrate Xi'e City in advance, but let Du Zhan find out in advance, startle the snake, and make it self-defeating, but it would expose Zhang Longbu's actions in advance.

As for the remaining four counties, they didn't have much to worry about, Fu Tong detected the information in advance, although the three chief officials of these four counties were not as greedy or stupid as the three chief officials of Luyang County and Li County, but they were not famous or particularly capable people, so they could all be seized by tricks according to Bai Liu's method of offering the city from the inside.

The arrangement has been decided, and when dividing the troops, Fu Tong also made corresponding adjustments:

Of the three thousand soldiers who had already experienced several siege battles brought by Fu Tong himself, half of them, that is, 1,500 people, were assigned to Zhang Long, after all, even if he was a night raid along the way, he needed to forcibly attack the city.

Of the remaining half of the soldiers, 900 were given to Zhang Long, and the remaining 600 were given to Mahan.

After all, there are still many leaders who follow Zhang Long and Ma Han, although they can only bring their own personal soldiers to the battle, one person is twenty or thirty, but the number of leaders who can't stand the leader itself is very large, and Ma Han, who is in second place, has recruited more than twenty leaders, and even the personal soldiers around them have exceeded five hundred, and the leader who followed Zhang Long has more people than this.

Of course, when going out on the expedition, many leaders played tricks, and all the powerful small leaders in their original team were also withdrawn, as their own personal soldiers, once the siege was successful, Ma Han or Zhang Long would follow Fu Tong's previous instructions to digest the defenders in the county on the spot, or recruit new soldiers in the county town, and the leaders had these small leaders around them to govern the recruits, and this newly established army would soon be able to form combat effectiveness.

However, whether it is Fu Tong, Zhang Long or Fu Tong, they all know this. Because, in fact, this is Fu Tong deliberately indulging these leaders to do this, they have withdrawn all the backbone of the rebel army or bandits, not only will it not reduce the combat effectiveness of the army, but it will allow Fu Tong to integrate and digest this army better and faster.

As soon as Ma Han and the three of them led the troops to the battle, Fu Tong immediately placed all his own soldiers in the army under him, and disorganized and reorganized the soldiers under the original rebels and bandits.

This is what Fu Tong wants to see the most.
