Chapter 139: Looking Back at Five Miles
"Sun Ce led an army of 30,000 from Wu County, and did not go to the Hukou Water Army Camp, but went straight to Yankou and met Zhou Yu's Water Division at Yankou."
Zhang Ren's eyes sank, and he said to Liu Zhang: "Lord, the Jiangdong Army has already arrived in advance, and Yankou is only half a day's journey from here, so we must come up with a countermeasure immediately." ”
Liu Zhang breathed a sigh of relief and said lightly: "There is no countermeasure, the Ganning Navy has not arrived, so we can only hold on to the city, the 50,000 troops of the Jiangdong Army come with hatred, menacing, and Sun Ce's bravery, Zhou Yu's strategy, I am afraid that there will be more and less luck, we can only fight with all our strength, are there any cowards among you?" ”
"Swear to protect the lord to the death, and smear your liver and brains." Zhang Ren took the lead in bowing.
"Swear to protect the lord to the death, and smear your liver and brains." The generals shouted in unison, and the sound of armor rubbing resounded through the hall.
"Okay, this official also swears to live and die with you." Liu Zhang returned to the main position, staring at the generals, all of them were full of fighting spirit, especially Leng Bao was even more excited, this reckless man was afraid that he didn't want to run away from the beginning, and he wanted to fight with the Jiangdong Army.
"The generals will go down to prepare for defense, but before that, the matter of Leng Bud and Fa Zheng can't just be settled, Leng Bud, don't think that if you shout loudly, this official will not punish you, and you will be demoted to a foot pawn from now on."
Leng Bud rolled his eyes secretly, thinking that there was some punishment, and he was demoted to a foot pawn, after the defeat of Tiandang Mountain, he was now a centurion, what does it matter if he is upgraded from scratch.
"As for Fa Zheng, Fa Zheng ......" Liu Zhang suddenly didn't know what punishment to give this guy, as early as in Yizhou, Fa Zheng had already been demoted to cloth, and there was no way to descend, Liu Zhang found that these two people were really unrelenting, and only snorted heavily: "Write it down for the time being, if he commits it again in the future, the two crimes will be punished together." ”
The generals were about to disperse, and another soldier came to report: "Lord, General Gan Ning has sent a messenger from the waterway, and the Jinfan Navy has reached the mouth of the Youjiang River." ”
"What? That's great. All the civil and military forces were overjoyed, Liu Zhang breathed a sigh of relief, in this sinister condition of being outnumbered, facing the fierce general Sun Ce and the top strategist Zhou Yu of the Three Kingdoms, he really didn't have a little certainty, of course it was best not to fight if he could not fight, and when he heard Gan Ning coming, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, only Leng Bud and Shamoke's belligerents were sullen.
Fa Zheng came out and said: "My lord, the messenger said that when he said that the mouth of the oil river, according to the itinerary, we can reach Baling in half a day, we don't have to engage Sun Ce, we can rush directly to Baling, meet with General Gan Ning, and go straight to Jingbei." ”
"Okay, just do as you say, the whole army will be reorganized, and Chaisang will be withdrawn quickly."
The Sichuan army assembled outside the county government, and the surrounding people were shocked, only thinking that the Sichuan army was about to start slaughtering the city, and secretly regretted that he did not follow the others, but at this time it was too late to go again, maybe as soon as he went out, he would be hacked to death by the Sichuan army.
In the frightened eyes of the people, the Sichuan army marched out of the city and went straight to the west, and set fire to the county government before leaving, black smoke billowed and the flames soared into the sky, the people of Chaisang were shocked, and the people of Xicheng were slightly relieved until they saw the Sichuan army disappear on the horizon.
At the same time, a group of wild men wearing tree bark, wearing rags, bamboo shoes and straw hats appeared on the barren mountain outside the southern city, waving forks made of animal horns in their hands, carrying bows and arrows made of bluestone, stepping on the top of the mountain, and looking at Chaisang City from afar.
This is the Shanyue people who are active in the area of Poyang Lake, Shanyue is a branch of Baiyue, which is widely distributed in the south, Han and Yue live together, and the degree of civilization is different, and the Shanyue of Poyang Lake should be the most backward branch compared to Danyang Shanyue of Wu County, and the leader is named You Tu.
"Yang Fan, is it really feasible to rob Chaisang? The day before yesterday, you suggested attacking Guiyang, but you encountered an ambush, causing Ben Shuai to lose dozens of warriors in the clan. You Tu asked a young man beside him, with some dissatisfaction in his tone, but it was not difficult to hear You Tu's respect for this young man.
This young man named Yang Fan was the son of an influential family of Chaisang, after the Sun family's influence expanded to Chaisang, in order to completely rule Chaisang, the Yang family was squeezed out by various means, Yang Fan ran away in anger and defected to the Shanyue people.
Shanyue was originally a general name, there are many Han people, Yang Fan was easily accepted, and because he had some resourcefulness, he helped You Tu pacify a few cottages that were not satisfied with him, and he was deeply respected by Youtu.
It was the spring famine, Shanyue people sent out in large numbers, this Guiyang raid, or the first time Yang Fan failed, Yang Fan didn't know what Liu Zhang was crazy about, knowing that he couldn't keep Jingnan, and he had to send a woman back to guard it, he didn't expect that there were still guards in Guiyang, let alone an ambush.
Yang Fan lost his troops outside Guiyang City, afraid of losing You Tu's trust from now on, so he set his eyes on Chai Sang, who was at the center of the storm, to see what advantage he could get in the big battle between Sun Ce and Liu Zhang, and You Tu was blushing at the development of Wu County's Shanyue Danyang Mountain, and he was also bent on strengthening Shanyue in Poyang Lake, so he readily agreed to Yang Fan's plan.
At this moment, a fire suddenly broke out in Chaisang City, and the smoke penetrated the sky, staining the blue sky black for a long time, You Tu and Yang Fan were in shock, and the spies sent out for a day and a night climbed up from the bottom of the mountain, panting and shouting: "Great, king, the Sichuan army has withdrawn, the Sichuan army has withdrawn." ”。
"What? You repeat? The Sichuan army withdrew? Really? You suddenly exclaimed.
"Really, really, the Sichuan army withdrew, the small one saw it with his own eyes in the grass, in order to make sure it was right, the small one went out two miles with him, the Sichuan army really withdrew, and set fire to the county government before leaving, and now Chaisan is an empty city."
"Haha, that's great." You Tu was overjoyed, and was about to wave the double-thorn iron fork and rush down the mountain, but Yang Fan hurriedly stopped him, and cautiously asked Na Yue: "Is it that Sun Ce's army arrived and the Sichuan army was forced to withdraw?" ”
"I haven't seen the shadow of the Jiangdong Army, so it's still far away."
Yang Fan pondered for a moment and finally nodded.
"Oh, oh, oh."
The Shanyue people waved the primitive weapon in their hands, howled and rushed down the mountain, and went straight to Chaisang to kill.
After the Sichuan army traveled five miles, Liu Zhang suddenly stopped and stopped on the top of a hill, only to feel that this time out of Jiangdong, he would not have a chance to come again.
Chaisang is an important town in Eastern Wu, throughout the Three Kingdoms, Cao Cao's red cliff broke the halberd and sank into the sand, Liu Bei Yiling's soldiers were defeated and died, the Liu family and the Cao family have never set foot here, today they can gain a foothold in the Sun family, and the city of Chaisang is trampled under their feet, and he will have a chance to return to his homeland?
Liu Zhang couldn't help but look back at Chaisang, but he was taken aback at this look, only to see a group of ant-like black spots outside Chaisang City, chaotically pouring into Chaisang, and he was surprised that the soldiers in the rear galloped to report.
"My lord, hundreds of people from Shanyue have entered Chaisang City and are looting in Chaisan."
