Chapter 230: Progress is rapid

"You guys, what are you doing here? Raise soldiers for a thousand days, use soldiers for a while, I usually provide you with food and drink, now it's time to fight, you actually choose to surrender at this time, are you worthy of my usual affection? ”

Seeing the soldiers abandon their weapons and surrender, Shan Jing was furious in his heart, although he felt strange about the shouting sound in Liu He's army, but Shan Jing thought that this was demonic art, and there was no need to be afraid at all, as long as everyone was united, there was still a possibility of breaking through.

However, with the rapid spread of various rumors, the officers and men in the army have long lost the slightest will to fight, and more and more people have chosen to surrender, although they have killed dozens of surrendered soldiers with a single sword, but they still have not stopped the tide of surrender, and even in the end, even his own soldiers have joined the ranks of surrender.

The number of soldiers under the command of Shan Jing was not as much as Liu He's, and later he was chased and killed by Xu Huang when he was aiding Yuyang, losing more than 2,000 people, and then he was killed by a round of arrows from the ambush, and the proportion of the two sides was even more disparity, and the army hurried away, came in a hurry, and did not prepare much food and grass, so there was no need for Liu He to persuade the army again, and the soldiers all had the psychology of surrendering.

And the momentum of this surrender naturally became bigger with the increase in numbers, and the single thing that prevented them from surrendering is now simply a mantis arm as a car, and it is impossible to stop this worsening situation, and in the end, in addition to him and dozens of personal soldiers around him, almost all the soldiers chose to surrender.

At this time, Liu He also knew the name of Shan Jing through the surrendered soldiers, so he opened his mouth to persuade: "General Shan, you have also seen the current situation, only surrender can there be a way to live, otherwise, there is only a dead end, the current Gongsun Chan is cruel and tyrannical, and he is no longer the white horse general Gongsun Chan who was dedicated to the world, but the only husband Gongsun Zhan, what good is it for you to follow him to work hard?" ”

But I saw Shan Jing open his mouth and said: "Thank you for such a sincere invitation, but unfortunately I can't agree, my lord has the grace of knowing me, I am afraid that I will not be able to repay such a kindness in my life, and now it is an opportunity to repay, I will use my life to repay the great kindness of the lord." Alas, the lord, the lord, it's not that I don't want to help you defend this Lu county, it's really that the enemy is strong and I am weak, and I don't have this ability. ”

With a light sigh, the horizontal sword killed himself, ending his life, and it also meant that Luxian changed hands.

"General!" The soldiers around him who refused to surrender all burst into tears when they saw that the Lord was about to die, and then they looked at each other in unison, drew their swords, and killed themselves with the same swing of their swords.

"These are righteous men, bury them well." Seeing Shan Jing and his own soldiers killing themselves, Liu He's face flashed with a hint of respect, sighed lightly, and then said: "Pass the order, the troops will enter Lu County, Chen Dao, you send someone to inform Xu Huang and Lu Yi, let them start attacking the city immediately, and be sure to complete the task in the shortest possible time." ”

"No." When there were even two heralds, holding Liu He's arrows, they rode fast horses to Yuyang and Yongnu counties respectively to convey orders to Xu Huang and Liyi.

Only three days later, Liu He received the good news of Liyi and Xu Huang successively, it turned out that Liyi conquered Quanzhou County on the day the army arrived, in fact, if it is said that "overcoming" is still somewhat inconsistent with the facts, because as soon as he heard that the leader of the army was the famous Liyi, the defenders of Quanzhou County directly abandoned the city and fled, and were taken by the Liyi soldiers without blood.

After that, Liyi left his subordinate general Xian Yuyin to lead an army of 1,000 to guard Quanzhou County, waiting for the handover with the Ganning army that came later, and he led the rest of the soldiers to rush to Yongnu County immediately without stopping, surrounded Yongnu City on all sides, and cut off all internal and external exchanges, as a result, the soldiers and civilians in the city were panicked, and many times they broke through and returned, and finally Liyi ordered to launch a general offensive within the first time to open the door and surrender.

Xu Huang's siege of Yuyang was a problem, because Yuyang's defender Zou Dan ordered resolute resistance, coupled with the fact that the defense facilities there were very complete, and the soldiers were desperate, the first round of strong attacks ended in failure. In this round of siege, Xu Huang lost five or six hundred soldiers, although the casualties caused to the enemy were greater, but it still could not hide the fact that the city was not captured.

And at this time, the general Fang Yue suggested to Xu Huang to dig a tunnel, break into the city through the tunnel, and then combine the inside and the outside to take Yuyang City.

After some consideration, Xu Huang agreed to Fang Yue's suggestion and ordered Fang Yue to dig the tunnel.

Unexpectedly, in less than half a day, Fang Yue actually dug the tunnel, and was not discovered by the other party in the process.

When Xu Huang heard the news, he ordered Fang Yue to lead 500 men and horses from his headquarters to break into the city through the tunnel at night, create chaos, and take the opportunity to open the city gate and take Yuyang City.

After Fang Yue received the order, he immediately prepared, selected five hundred elite soldiers, entered the city through the tunnel at night, occupied the west city gate by surprise, and then opened the city gate, put down the drawbridge, and let Xu Huang's army enter the city.

The defenders in the city were originally small in number, and after seeing Xu Huang leading the army to kill, they no longer had the fighting spirit, let out a shout, and fled in all directions, but they were intercepted and killed by the soldiers who were ambushed outside the city, some of them were killed, and the other part was taken prisoner.

As for Zou Dan, he knew that he was not lucky, so he led his elite to fight to the death, but he angered Xu Huang, and Xu Huang led the army to catch up, and he chopped Zou Dan to death with just an axe, and Zou Dan's personal soldiers saw that the main general was dead, and they committed suicide one after another.

"Haha, this Fang Yue's authentic skills are really mysterious, and they actually play such a role, pass on my general's order, worship Fang Yue as the Xuanyi Zhonglang General, Liyi as the first Zhonglang General, and other meritorious soldiers will be rewarded according to the size of the military merits. Our three-way army marched hand in hand, and soon took the whole county of Yuyang, and then we were going to attack the right Beiping where Gongsun Chan was entrenched, as long as we could take the right Beiping, Gongsun Chan would become a lost dog, even if he didn't die, it was useless. After reading the battle report of Lu Yi and Xu Huang, Liu He was overjoyed in his heart, the army was advancing rapidly, if it was at this speed, I am afraid it would not take half a year at all, and four or five months would be enough to pacify the entire Youzhou.

And at this moment, I only heard the report of Tanma: Gongsun Du of Liaodong has sent 50,000 reinforcements, and it is estimated that he has now entered Youbeiping, and the Xianbei Murong Department of Liaoxi has also sent 20,000 cavalry, and now the enemy's strength has reached 90,000, and the situation is somewhat unfavorable.

Liu He didn't take these 90,000 people in his eyes, and said very indifferently: "What about 90,000 people? For me, even if it is 100,200,000, a rabble is a rabble, and it cannot be compared with the elite soldiers under my command at all. ”
