284, Huang Zu is dead
Wang Yuyan heard the news that Zhu Wei said that Cai Mao's reinforcements had entered Jiangxia in Jiangling, and immediately checked it on the Jiangxia map.
Then Wang Yuyan immediately ordered the scouts to go to the river to explore the intelligence of this Cai Mao reinforcements, even if these scouts could not get close to the fleet of Cai Mao's reinforcements, they could also analyze how many people Cai Mao sent to support Jiangxia by looking at the scale of Cai Mao's reinforcements.
At the same time, their line of sight can also open up a perspective for Zhu Wei's Three Kingdoms game map, allowing Zhu Wei to directly see the situation of this Cai Mao reinforcement.
It's just that there is still a problem now, that is, I don't know if Cai Mao's reinforcements will come directly to Xiling City, or will they go straight to the Turtle and Snake Gorge to cut off Zhu Wei's retreat.
Going down the Yangtze River, the speed of Cai Mao's reinforcements should not be slow, so Zhu Wei's side must also find countermeasures as soon as possible, but according to Wang Yuyan's analysis, there should not be too many Cai Mao reinforcements from Jiangling this time, maybe on the scale of five or six thousand.
After all, now Cai Mao doesn't know what the situation is on Jiang Xia's side, whether the battle situation is really so critical, he should just send a reinforcement to see the situation first.
Therefore, Zhu Wei only needs to set up an ambush and eat this Jiangling Cai Mao reinforcements, but he doesn't have to think too much about other things.
Zhu Wei's heart calmed down when he heard this, that's right, no matter what, it's enough to eat this Cai Mao reinforcements, if it is the Cai clan who leads the troops this time, maybe he can also capture and blackmail Cai Mao.
It is estimated that the idea that he originally wanted to eat reinforcements and counterattack Gangneung was also a little too idealistic.
At the moment, Zhu Wei was not in a hurry, and when he had more information, he paid attention to Huang Zu's side again.
At this time, Huang Zu had fled to the front of the mountain col with his troops, and under Pang Yan's pursuit, there were less than 2,000 remnants of Huang Zu's side, and they ran away one by one, losing their armor, and their hair was soaked in sweat and sticking to their foreheads.
Even Huang Zu himself was panting, but for some reason, he looked at the col in front of him, but his heart was beating sharply, as if something was waiting for him.
Therefore, Huang Zu couldn't help but stretch out his hand to stop the team and ordered his subordinates to send people to the front to explore the way.
As a result, Ling Cao and Ma Zhong, who were lying in ambush on this side of the mountain col, saw that Huang Zu seemed to be aware of it, so they were not hiding, and with the sound of bamboo bangs, "whooshing" arrows shot out from between the mountain col and the grass.
The soldiers on Huang Zu's side were all defenseless, and many people were shot and fell to the ground for a while, but more people had just sat down, their bodies were completely soft, and they had no strength to stand up at all, so they could only crawl on the ground and roll left and right to dodge.
One of the feather arrows accurately and coldly struck Huang Zu's forehead, and with a "poof", the arrow pierced Huang Zu's forehead, and Huang Zu fell to the ground with a "ah...... sound.
In the col, Ma Zhong maintained an archery posture, staring outward, seeing Huang Zu's arrow, the corner of Ma Zhong's mouth sneered, but he pulled out a feather arrow again as if nothing happened, and shot at the small officers of Huang Zu's soldiers who fled over there to find the military marquis and Tunzi.
Ling Cao looked over on the other side, and saw that a figure on the other side who looked like a master general was shot to the ground, and immediately shouted, "Huang Zu is dead, don't wait for it to descend soon!" ”
"Those who descend will not be killed, and those who descend will not be killed!"
Under Ling Cao's shout, the soldiers in ambush around also shouted, and the remnants of the soldiers who followed Huang Zu over there subconsciously looked in the direction where Huang Zu was, and saw that Huang Zu had a feather arrow on his forehead and fell to the ground, and he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Next, many people lost their hearts, so they fell to their knees on the spot, abandoned the army and surrendered.
And Ling Cao also led people to kill them from the mountain col in ambush, drove the surrendered soldiers aside, and then chased after other fleeing soldiers, so that people confirmed Huang Zu's identity, and carried Huang Zu's body and began to return to Xiling City.
With the death of Huang Zu, Jiangxia can be regarded as basically pacified, as for the other counties in Jiangxia, it is basically a matter of passing over and definitely, and there are at most a few hundred county soldiers in these counties, where can they resist Zhu Wei's army.
Even if there are still local scholars and powerful families who are not convinced, they will not be able to make big waves, but they can find an excuse for Zhu Wei to clean up and take away their family wealth and grain fields.
Not long after, Ling Cao, Ma Zhong, Pang Yan, Su Fei, and Gan Ning converged, and everyone joined forces together, and then retreated to Xiling City, and Zhu Wei already knew the situation and prepared to respond in the city.
At this moment, Tai Shi Ci had also defeated the two thousand defenders left by Huang Zu at the north gate of Xiling City, and returned to Taishou Mansion to find Zhu Wei to recover his life.
So it didn't take long for Zhu Wei's army to regather in Xiling City, and Zhu Wei placed his army and all the prisoners of Huang Zu's soldiers in the military camp in Xiling City, and then convened the generals to discuss the matter in Taishou Mansion.
First of all, he was rewarded for his meritorious deeds, and soon Zhu Wei said that there were Cai Mao reinforcements coming from the Yangtze River in Jiangling, and at this moment, the scouts sent by Wang Yuyan had also discovered this Cai Mao reinforcements.
Zhu Wei looked through the perspective of the scouts in the game map of the Three Kingdoms, and sure enough, it was a fleet composed of a warship, more than 20 warships, and some large and small river boats, which was about six or seven thousand people.
At the same time, it seems that this Cai Mao reinforcements also came directly to Xiling City, but they don't have to worry about them going to Turtle and Snake Gorge to harass.
Therefore, Wang Yuyan directly said the strategy of dealing with the enemy, basically the same as the fleet that dealt with Su Fei and Gan Ning before, preparing to set up a geese-shaped formation at the intersection of the Yangtze River and Xiashui, and then use methods such as iron cables to block the river to encircle and annihilate this Cai Mao reinforcements.
There was no need for Zhu Wei to personally go out for this matter, Wang Yuyan handed over the task to Pang Yan and Tai Shici, and asked them to take Ling Cao and Ma Zhong to take the warships and light ships captured in the Turtle Snake Gorge Water Village to meet the battle.
Of course, in order to prevent Cai Mao's reinforcements from being scared away, Wang Yuyan also arranged a tactic to show the enemy's weakness, and ordered Ling Cao to take a warship and a dozen river boats to lure Cai Mao's reinforcements first, and also instructed Pang Yan and Tai Shici to use ordinary river boats to cover up the warships and light ships they were really riding on.
Anyway, all the plans have been decided, Pang Yan, Tai Shici, Ling Cao, and Ma Zhong received the order, and set off from the water gate of Xiling City, and drove the boat directly to meet the Cai Mao reinforcements from Jiangling.
And Zhu Wei stayed in Xiling City and began to deal with the affairs in Xiling City.
Zhu Wei first sent Huang Zu's body back to Huang Zu's mansion in Xiling City, and then appeased Huang Zu's family as the new ruler of Xiling City, saying that he would not kill them, but Zhu Wei unceremoniously raided Huang Zu's mansion, moved Huang Zu's family out of Huang Zu's mansion, and found another land to settle first, and then arranged for people to count the belongings in Huang Zu's mansion.
However, Zhu Wei only raided the house but did not kill anyone, which is already very tolerant, normally speaking, the conqueror should have included all the beautiful ladies of Huang Zu's family in his harem, and then everyone else was reduced to slaves and did the most humble things.
But Zhu Wei is just raiding his house and driving people away, and what he did is really polite......
