Lu An made up his mind, and immediately began to send troops, after just three days of the whole army, he directly led the army to set off, this time, he only took Guo Jia and Shamoke to fight, leading 15,000 barbarian soldiers, 15,000 Han soldiers, a total of 30,000 soldiers to attack Lingling, and Ganning, Zhoutai, Jiang Qin and most of the soldiers stayed in Wuling, guarding against Liu Biao's dynamics.

Xiangyang

"What? Lu Xuantong led his troops to the battle, and the soldiers pointed directly at Lingling! Liu Biao looked at the report from the spies in front of him and was shocked.

"Yes, 30,000 troops have been raised, and now they have reached the territory of Lingling, and their army is very powerful, and many townships and counties are looking forward to the wind!"

"Wolf ambition, wolf ambition! He Lu Xuantong dared to do this! Liu Biao came back to his senses, and suddenly became angry, this Lu Xuantong also sent him a few building boats when he first took office, and he was indeed obedient enough at the beginning of his tenure, and often sent some private property over, but he didn't expect that within two years, his fangs would be exposed and he would eat himself.

"Lord, this Lu'an thief has endured for a long time, and now that it has exploded, I think he doesn't just want Lingling, I'm afraid he wants the whole of Jingnan!" When Kuai Liang, the strategist in the audience, heard this, all kinds of years flashed in his mind, and then he stood up and spoke.

"Evil beast, how can I do what he wants!" Liu Biao was even more angry, swept the cup on the stage to the ground, and said hatefully. Although Jingnan is remote and far less wealthy than Jingbei, there are hundreds of thousands of people in total, if you give it up like this, wouldn't you be laughed to death, not to mention, this person is still his nominal subordinate.

"So far, the lord can only issue an edict first, announce Lu Xuantong's sins to the world, and then raise troops to attack his base camp, with the plan of besieging Wei to save Zhao, and forcing him to come back!" Kuai Liang's mind turned, and he had a plan at the moment, and opened his mouth to admonish.

"I'll repair a letter to Huang Zu, and let Huang Zu lead 50,000 elite soldiers to attack Wuling!" Liu Biao nodded and spoke. Kuai Liang's plan is undoubtedly flawless, Lu An led his troops to attack Lingling, his Wuling base camp must be empty, as long as his army is pressed, this Lu Xuantong can only lead his troops back to the city, of course, if he doesn't come back with his brain, it will be better, he directly took his Wuling, it is said that the current Wuling is not as rich as Xiangyang.

"Lu Xuantong is both civil and military, and his prestige spreads all over the world, I'm afraid that there will be some precautions, the lord might as well let Wen Ping also fight, and the two sides will go out together to attack together!" Kuai Liang persuaded again.

"Zirou is right! Although Lu Xuantong is a wolf, he is famous as a young man, and he does have something extraordinary, so I will call Wen Ping over again! Lead 30,000 soldiers and attack together! Liu Biao agreed with Kuai Liang's statement, and ordered the left and right to summon Wen Ping and prepare to send troops on both sides.

"In this way, the lord will have no worries!" Kuai Liang smiled slightly and returned to his place. He is from a family, and he naturally lacks a good impression of Lu An, who has been trying his best to suppress the family, and it is very interesting to see Lu An's unlucky appearance. As for whether the raid will make a contribution, he is not worried at all, if Lu An wants to capture the three counties of Jingnan, he must bring at least tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, and how many soldiers can a small Wuling can raise, so calculated, I am afraid that there are not many soldiers in Wuling County at this time, and at this time, Huang Zu and Wen Ping have a total of more than 80,000 people, and it is reasonable to achieve results.

....

On the other side, Lu An led the army to raid Lingling, but Lingling was too guarded by Liu Du but was defenseless, and along the way, many small counties had no resistance at all, and they surrendered to the wind.

"Soldiers, you are fast! The lord can be said to have mastered the key points of this art of war! In just over ten days, we have captured most of Lingling County, at this time, as long as we break its main city again, the attack of Lingling County will be completed! Guo Jia rode to Lu An's left and chuckled.

"If there is no accident, Liu Biao should have gotten the news at this time, and he may have sent troops to attack us!" Lu An's expression was solemn, and there was no joy on his face.

"Don't worry, the lord only brought 30,000 elite soldiers with us to fight this time, and the remaining 70,000 stayed in Wuling, Gan Xingba is a general, and with Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin assisting, Wuling will not lose." Guo Jia opened his mouth to persuade. There was a look of worry on his face.

"That's great!" Lu An nodded, since he had already come out, it was useless to worry, the only thing he had to do was to quickly break through the other three counties and do his best for this.

But it was said that Lingling Taishou Liu Du heard that Lu An's army was coming to attack him, and he was shocked at the moment, and reported to Liu Biao in Jingzhou while gathering troops and horses, ready to delay time, but within two days, his spies came to report that Lu An was about to hit the city, which made him panic in his heart, this Lu Xuantong spread the world with a martial name, but he didn't expect it to be so powerful, it was only a few days, and he attacked directly, and the county town below did not delay to even a little time.

"This, you say, what are we going to do now?" In the hall of the Lingling Taishou Mansion, Liu Du asked his subordinate officials a little restlessly.

"Don't worry, father! Soldiers are coming! That Lu Xuantong came from Wuling, and he was like a broken bamboo along the way, he must be slack, we might as well set up an ambush on the road! Frustrate him for a while! The young general in the audience walked out and said.

"Hmmm! Well, this one! Liu Du saw that it was his son Liu Xian, which made him hesitate a little in his heart whether to send troops to meet the battle. What the son said is not unreasonable, but that Lu An is famous all over the world, and he dared to attack Dong Zhuo, who had an army of hundreds of thousands, with 5,000 soldiers, and almost succeeded, and shot Dong Zhuo at a glance, his bravery can be seen, if this does not work, I am afraid that he will lose his troops and lose his generals.

"The Major General is right! The last general also thinks that this plan is feasible! As soon as Liu Xian finished speaking, another general came out to second, it was Xing Daorong, the general under Liu Du.

Seeing that his son and his most important generals wanted to go out to ambush him, Liu Du was ruthless, so he no longer hesitated, and said: "It's okay!" Since you all want to go out and ambush it, let's give it a go. ”

"My son listens to orders!"

"Son!"

"I will give you more than 15,000 soldiers and horses, go out of the city to adapt to the situation, and ambush the enemy!"

"Obey!"

"Xing Daorong!"

"The last general!"

"You assist my son, don't make any mistakes!"

"The last general obeys!"

After that, Liu Du sighed and patted his son and Xing Daorong on the shoulder: "Most of my Lingling soldiers and horses have been handed over to you, in this battle, you must be careful, even if the ambush fails, you must bring the soldiers and horses back, otherwise, my Lingling will have no power to resist at all." ”

"I know!" Liu Xian nodded, and Xing Daorong turned their heads away.

"Jingsheng Gong! You'll need to send reinforcements as soon as possible! Liu Du looked at the direction of Xiangyang in the north and prayed silently in his heart.

"Lord, let's march for another day, and we will be able to reach Lingling City!" On the march, Guo Jia flipped through the map and spoke.

"Hmmm! This Liu Du is very timid! Along the way, we didn't encounter any decent resistance at all, and we didn't see him raise a large army to meet him! Lu An nodded, and then said with some confusion.

"Hehe, the lord suddenly attacked, then Liu Du was defenseless, so let's take advantage of it, and wait until this Lingling is captured, and then there will be no such good thing in the two counties of Guiyang and Changsha!" Guo Jia smiled and spoke.

"Speaking of which, let's raid like this, we don't even say hello, and the division is nameless, it seems that there is some reason to lose!" Lu An felt a little embarrassed, attacking all the way, sometimes occupying the place, the county magistrates over there still didn't know what was going on, coupled with the indifference of the people over there, he always felt that this was damaging his reputation.

"In today's troubled times, strength is respected, if we win, everything will make sense, if we don't win, then the reason will become unreasonable!" Guo Jia said lightly.

"That's right, strength is respected, if you don't have strength and have no reputation, sooner or later you will be swallowed up by this troubled world!" Lu An nodded, in the troubled times, if you are still so particular, it can only be said to be pedantic, such as Kong Rong, eh! It seems a little inappropriate to talk about your benefactor like this.

The army marched for another half a day, and a large dense forest appeared next to the official road in front, and the forest shadows were thick, and the dynamics inside could not be seen.

"It's strange, there were some insects and birds singing before, but they are gone when they get here!" Shamoko looked at the very quiet jungle and wondered.
