Chapter 571: Engage the Jiangxia Army

The effect of these families on Ye Chen is to circle money, turn those real estate into cash, and let him take it away, as well as to contain the old families, and then it is more convenient to use them for economic penetration in the future.

For loyalty, there is no need, as long as the interests are tied together at that time, they will naturally turn towards themselves.

If they want to survive well in the Nanyang region, they have to follow Yuan Shu, if there is a point, they want to attack Nanyang, they will definitely help themselves, because at that time they have been getting benefits from Ye Chen's side, and if they want Ye Chen to rule Nanyang, they can get more benefits.

It's too far to say that these are too far, and I don't know when the next attack on Nanyang will be, even if these people are buried nails, they will naturally be useful when they are useful, and they will not be used to convey mutual benefits between the two sides, which is not bad.

After Yuan Shu occupied Wancheng, he spent the first two days dealing with the affairs of those families, and he had to send troops to suppress them to prevent them from making trouble again.

Two days later, Yuan Shu began to prepare to pursue Ye Chen and them, but because the grain and grass had not been in place, they did not take action for a long time.

Yuan Shu has never sent troops, which has made Ye Chen miserable.

"Young family master, we have been in ambush here for two days, and they haven't shown up yet." In a mountain col, the tiger head hung a piece of grass and said dissatisfiedly.

"Alas, I made a mistake, I originally wanted to ambush here, wait for Yuan Shu and them to chase after me, and then attack them, but I waited for two days in vain." Ye Chen shook his head helplessly, he was afraid that his calculation was about to fail.

"Let's go, let's catch up with them, and we can't go too far from them, lest they be attacked."

What Yuan Shu didn't know was that it was because they had been grinding for a few days, so they were not attacked by Ye Chen and them.

Ye Chen and the others spent another day catching up with Xu Huang and them.

"Lord, we are going back to Liaodong, but now we are forced to go south, the distance is getting farther and farther, where are we going next." On the way, Guan Yu asked.

"I plan to go south to the Yangtze River and transport this treasure and money back through the Yangtze River, otherwise such a huge amount of wealth, all the way north, will definitely be coveted by many people, and it will inevitably cause a lot of trouble." Ye Chen said.

Ye Chen's words must be reasonable, because they have already attracted the attention of many people, and even Huang Zu in the south has led his troops north, preparing to attack Yuan Shu from the north and south.

"Report."

A fast horse came running, and when he arrived in front of Ye Chen and them, he stopped and reported: "Report to the lord, the spies have to report, Huang Zu led the troops north." ”

"Huang Zu finally couldn't help but move." Ye Chen shook his head, this wealth is moving, not only do they have billions of dollars that they have collected, but also ten carts of treasures blackmailed from Yuan Shu, a huge amount of wealth, which is heartwarming.

"Speed up and find a way to deal with Huang Zu first." Ye Chen decided to speed up the march to deal with only 20,000 people, and he was not familiar with his own combat methods, and if he operated it well, he could completely defeat them first to avoid being attacked by him and Yuan Shu.

Ye Chen had already sent a message to Liaodong, asking them to send a ship to the Yangtze River to meet him, the fleet was going to cross most of China, the speed was not so fast, he had time to waste with them.

Huang Zu already knew that Ye Chen was going south and carrying a large amount of treasures, so he was tempted and wanted to join forces with Yuan Shu to attack the north and south, Yuan Shu had already sent someone to send him a summons to inform Ye Chen of their whereabouts, and also claimed that they would go south and attack Ye Chen from the north and south together.

However, Yuan Shu did not set off immediately, but did not set off until the fifth day after Ye Chen and the others left Wancheng.

Ye Chen led the troops and marched for two days, this time the cavalry was in front and the infantry was behind, and the speed of the infantry was not slow, because the baggage was carried by horses, and all could march at normal speed.

The infantry and cavalry almost started a day's journey, but fortunately, Yuan Shu and they had just set off, and Yuan Shu and I couldn't pursue Ye Chen with all our might, because many cities along the road needed them to deal with, so there were many delays on the road.

Another three days passed.

"My lord, not far ahead, I found Huang Zu and their forwards, about five thousand people." The scout ahead reported.

"Yun Chang led 3,000 men and horses to ambush on the left side, the eldest brother led 3,000 men to ambush on the right, and the third brother fought with me, and we will kill after the enemy enters the ambush." Ye Chen commanded.

This place was specially selected by Ye Chen and them, there were dense forests on both sides, just to ambush the enemy, and Ye Chen and they were ready at a bend after retreating, ready to kill at any time.

Ye Chen and the others laid an ambush according to the plan, and the spies had been reporting Huang Zu's whereabouts before, so they had a judgment on their approximate location, and they were ambushed early.

The soldiers and horses led by Huang Zu are all infantry, and they cannot afford to equip large-scale cavalry at present, who calls the lack of horses in the south.

Five thousand vanguards, led by a general, did not play much of a vanguard role at all, did not reconnoiter either side, and at the same time did not send scouts to observe the front.

This can't be blamed on them, they have been active in the Yangtze River, and they have never fought for many years, only ambushed Sun Jian before and fought a battle, but as long as this battle was ambushed on both sides of the mountain, after Sun Jian and others passed, they attacked with bows and arrows and killed Sun Jian.

"Ready."

The enemy entered the ambush circle, and Guan Yu and Tai Shi Ci secretly gave orders with gestures.

"Put."

A group of soldiers were on their way when suddenly a shower of arrows shot from both sides of the bush.

"Puff~"

The unprepared Jiangxia soldiers were suddenly shot down, screaming again and again.

"There are ambushes, defenses, defenses."

After being attacked, the generals of the Jiangxia army hurriedly let the soldiers defend, but where was the time, the arrow rain still kept falling, they had not yet formed a defense, they could only face the arrow rain, and some used weapons to block, but there were too many arrows, like flying locusts, and they couldn't prevent it.

"Kill."

After shooting a few rounds of arrow rain, Guan Yu shouted and came out with a big knife.

"There's an enemy over there, hurry, meet the enemy."

Seeing that Guan Yu had killed him, and his momentum was fierce, the generals of the Jiangxia army hurriedly asked people to resist.

The rain of arrows had just ended, and as a result, the ambush was exhausted, leaving Jiangxia's army to run away.

"Kill."

Another shout of killing, Tai Shici also killed, and the general also knew that there was an ambush behind, but Guan Yu killed it first, and he had to send someone to resist it first, otherwise he would be defeated immediately.

"Quick, go back and report to the general, we are under attack, let them support quickly." The general of the Jiangxia army shouted.

"What sound?"

"Cavalry, cavalry."

"There's cavalry ahead."

Guan Yu and Tai Shici were ambushed in the jungle, and they couldn't use war horses, but Ye Chen could.

"God will die for me." When Jiang Xia's generals saw the cavalry appear, they were irretrievable, they were attacked, the formation was all out of order, where was there still strength to defend against the cavalry.

"Open, form a circle, and wait for rescue." Jiangxia's generals made a final effort.
