Chapter 1998: Lingling County (Page 1/1)

And the support of the family in the city for Cao Cao made them take risks, if these things had been prevented before, they would definitely be able to prevent Cao's army from sneaking into the city, and the wrong information was transmitted back on the battlefield, so that Jiang Qin made the wrong decision.

If he can start all over again, Jiang Qin has full confidence that he can hold Linxiang and let the fierce Cao army return in vain, but Linxiang has been lost now, what he needs to do is to do his best on the battlefield in Lingling County and make Cao Jun pay a greater price.

The 5,000 army lost most of it, so that the morale of the Jiangdong Army was low, not only the soldiers of the Jingzhou Army fled on the way to retreat, but even the soldiers of the Jiangdong Army were not spared, when they could not see the hope of victory from the main general, they would make other moves and choose to flee, which was also a good choice for the soldiers of the Jiangdong Army.

After the capture of Linxiang, the officials of the counties of Changsha County have asked for surrender, for these cities to take refuge, Xiahoudun did not have the slightest embarrassment, and now his eyes are focused on Guiyang County, if he can seize Guiyang County in one fell swoop, only the Jiangdong Army of Lingling County is left in Jingzhou The strength is not enough to fear.

Cao Ren had just arrived in Wuling County when he learned that Xiahoudun had led a large army to break through Changsha County, and he was extremely surprised, but Xiahoudun was able to break through Changsha County at such a critical moment, which was a great encouragement to the morale of the army.

Xiahoudun's success in Changsha County, so that Cao Ren was stimulated a lot, Cao Ren has always had a high status in the army, and deeply trusted by Cao Cao, this time as a pioneer general, it was in the hands of Zhou Yu suffered a lot of losses, and now attacking Wuling County, it is an opportunity for Cao Ren, he wants to recover the shame suffered by Zhou Yu in the Jiangdong Army of Lingling County.

Before attacking Lingling County, Cao Ren conducted a detailed investigation of the situation in Lingling County, the defender of Lingling County is the famous general Zhu Zhi in Jiangdong, Zhu Zhi is much weaker than Jiang Qin's name in the Jiangdong Army, if it is about defending the city, Zhu Zhi is more powerful than Jiang Qin, in the face of such a general, Cao Ren has to pay attention, and from the news from the battlefield, the defender of Changsha County Jiang Qin led the army into Lingling County after the defeat, Lingling County originally had 4,000 defenders, plus the soldiers and horses in Jiang Qin's hands, The number of troops reached 6,000, which is a force to be reckoned with.

If you want to break through Lingling County, it is difficult to do it just by relying on the frontal battle, and it can be seen from Xiahoudun's surprise attack in Changsha County that if you want to capture Lingling County, you must have an internal existence.

No one responded, and it was simply impossible to capture Lingling County.

Lingling County has an army of 6,000 troops, and Zhu Zhi's deputy general Xing Daorong is the original general of Lingling County, after Sun Ce broke through Lingling County, Xing Daorong chose to surrender, in order to appease Xing Daorong, Sun Ce ordered him to serve as the deputy general of the army.

In Lingling County, Xing Daorong has a high prestige, before leading the troops to fight, Xun You's advice to Cao Ren is to start with Xing Daorong's body, if he can persuade Xing Daorong to surrender, the rest of the matter is much simpler for Cao Jun, there is an enemy adjutant general to deal with, I am afraid it is unimaginable for Zhu Zhi and Jiang Qin.

Jiang Qin was defeated from Changsha County, and the army lost more than half, which made Zhu Zhi dumbfounded, what kind of ability Jiang Qin had in the Jiangdong Army, Zhu Zhi was very clear, he was such a fierce general, but he was defeated by such a grievance on the battlefield of Changsha County, at that time the Cao army had 10,000 people, but Jiang Qin had 5,000 people, with the advantage of the city, and the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses who defended the Cao army could still be easily done, but it was in this situation that Jiang Qin lost Changsha County.

The whole process of the Cao army's raid gave people an unbelievable feeling, but the Jiangdong army had to admit that in the process of fighting the Cao army, they were temporarily defeated, and it was not so simple to seize Changsha County from the hands of the Cao army again.

Not only Jiang Qin, Zhu Zhi can also feel that the family of Lingling County is very subtle in its attitude towards Cao Cao, this is Zhu Zhi's intuition, after learning the news of Cao Jun's arrival, he did not see panic in the family, as if the arrival of Cao Jun has nothing to do with them, after a little thought, Zhu Zhi understands the truth, Liu Cong is now the saint of the Han Dynasty, there are many Jingzhou officials in the imperial court, and the forces between the families are intertwined. There must be no one in the Jingzhou family who is secretly implicated with the officials of Jingzhou in Xudu, they naturally hope to let Cao Cao rule Jingzhou, in this way, the Jingzhou family can get more things, Jiangdong has just experienced turmoil, whether it can be preserved under the attack of Cao Cao led by the army is still unknown, the family naturally hopes to get a more stable backer.

Cao Cao is a member of the family, and when he treats the family, he will not be like Lu Bu, and at this time, Cao Cao needs the help of the family to pacify Jingzhou as soon as possible, as long as he helps Cao Cao pacify Jingzhou, then the family has merit, and from Cao Cao's support for Liu Cong, the family in Jingzhou saw Cao Cao's sincerity.

If you want to make the Han family more and more powerful, you need to have more strong strength, and the Jiangdong Army is just an outsider, if you want to gain a foothold in Jingzhou, you also have to look at the face of the Jingzhou family, in the past, the family was still relatively honest under the rule of the Jiangdong Army, but now that the Cao Army is coming, they are some of them have some hearts floating.

Xing Daorong is a long-established general of Lingling County, when Sun Ce invaded Lingling County, Xing Daorong even dared to lead his soldiers and horses out of the city to fight with the Jiangdong Army, which is enough to see the strength of Xing Daorong.

In the past, Zhu Zhi did not respect Xing Daorong's opinion too much, anyway, in Zhu Zhi's view, Xing Daorong is just a general of the defeated army, even if he has some skills, what can he do, now Changsha County is broken by the enemy, and the situation in Lingling County is critical, which makes Zhu Zhi think of Xing Daorong, if he can get Xing Daorong's support at this time, it will be easier to defend the enemy army, and the most important problem is to let Xing Daorong see hope.

Now Xing Daorong's state is muddy, he has a strong martial arts, but he is not taken seriously in the army, the reason is that he was a general in the Jingzhou army before, the grievances between the generals of the Jiangdong Army and the generals of the Jingzhou Army have a long history, and they despise each other.
