Chapter Ninety-Five: Liu Xun Dispatches Troops

"Wu Hou's account captured Zhonglang General Lu Fan, I have seen Liu Taishou!"

Liu Xun glanced up at Lu Fan, and saw that this person had a powerful posture and an extraordinary appearance, so he couldn't help but feel a little good, and said with a slight smile: "It turned out to be Mr. Ziheng, I don't know why your Wu Hou sent you here?" ”

Lu Fan said: "My father-in-law heard that Liu Taishou was unfavorable, so he sent me to condole!" ”

When Liu Xun heard this, he immediately glared at him and said angrily: "Sun Ce sent you here to humiliate Ben Taishou!?" ”

"Not really." Lu Fan shook his head, and said without changing his face, "Liu Taishou doesn't know, now Liu Biao sent Han Xi and his son Liu Hu to lead 5,000 spearmen to arrive in Exian County to help Huang Zu, and there is a faint tendency to counterattack my Jiangdong, and Liu Biao's other subordinate Liu Pan and the general Huang Zhong led 5,000 soldiers from Changsha Youxian to the east of Yuzhang, and now the situation is also very grim for my Jiangdong, my lord sent me here today, just to ask Liu Taishou, this Jinfan, Liu Taishou is still fighting?" If we stop here, our Jiangdong will also withdraw from the Niuzhu camp and move to Jiangxia. ”

"This ......" Liu Xun's face changed, and he was suddenly shocked into a cold sweat, you must know that the Jiangdong Army is in Niuzhu, but it is enough to contain more than 10,000 soldiers and horses of Jinfan, once the Jiangdong Army withdraws, Wang Chong can draw troops and horses from Weixukou and Liyang at will, and at that time, let alone attack Jinfan, it is already very good not to be beaten by Jinfan.

Lu Fan continued to pressurize: "Please also ask Liu Taishou to give a clear answer, and my Jiangdong Army should make plans as soon as possible." ”

The expression on Liu Xun's face changed several times, and after a long time, he took a deep breath and said, "If I intend to continue to attack Jinfan, how long can the Jiangdong Army contain Jinfan for me?" ”

"Seven days." Lu Fan said, "Even if Liu Taishou decides to send troops, after seven days at most, my Jiangdong Army will leave Niuzhu!" ”

"Seven days...... Liu Xun muttered, then gritted his teeth fiercely, as if he had made up his mind, "Okay, seven days is seven days, and I also ask Wu Hou to continue to send troops to put pressure on Misukou and Liyang, and Wang Chong must not be allowed to transfer a single soldier from these two places!" ”

Lu Fan smiled: "Please rest assured that Liu Taishou, my Jiangdong has always kept his promises, but after Liu Taishou defeated Jinfan, don't stop me Jiangdong from attacking Yuzhang County." ”

Liu Xun patted his chest and promised: "It's easy to say, when Ben Taishou captures Huainan, you Jiangdong can directly take Yuzhang, and Ben Taishou will never obstruct it." ”

"In this way, thank you Liu Taishou!" Lu Fan was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked him, at this time Liu Xun was smug, but he didn't know that the eyes that Lu Fan lowered his head and hid were flashing with a cold light.

————————————

At this time, Xiang'an City had already fallen into Jinfan's control.

A few days ago, Huang Yi sent someone to visit Jinfan secretly, the purpose of which was to surrender.

Escaping back to Anhui City is very likely to be executed by Liu Xun, and I am afraid that he will not live long if he continues to resist stubbornly, so Huang Yi chose to surrender very wisely, although he doesn't know how Wang Chong will deal with him, but as long as he knows a little bit, his life can still be saved.

In the past few days, the 'fierce' fighting between the two sides under Xiang'an City is nothing more than a performance for Liu Xun, and as Huang Yi's 'urgent letters' were sent to Anhui City one by one, Wang Chong didn't believe that when Liu Xun learned that Jinfan's current strength was getting smaller and smaller, he would not have the slightest intention in his heart.

"Shaolin, Liu Xun has sent troops!"

At noon that day, Wang Chong had just finished lunch, when he saw Gan Ning open the curtain and rushed in with a happy face.

"Oh? Did he finally take it easy? Wang Chong raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Brother, do you know how many soldiers and horses he dispatched this time?" ”

"Twenty thousand!" Gan Ning said excitedly, "Liu Xun takes himself as the commander and Yang Hong as the military advisor, leading 20,000 soldiers to Xiang'an, and only leaving 3,000 garrison soldiers in Anhui City!" ”

"It seems that Liu Xun has been out of the way this time." Wang Chong smiled and said, "Brother, tonight you will lead 3,000 soldiers to secretly go to the Linhu area to ambush, when Liu Xun learns that Anhui City is besieged and is eager to return to help, you can kill from the middle of the road, and fight with me in front and back, and you will definitely be able to defeat Liu Xun's 20,000 soldiers and horses in one fell swoop!" ”

A hint of excitement flashed in Gan Ning's eyes: "This plan is wonderful!" ”

On the same day, Wang Chong led a large army into Xiang'an City and blocked the four gates to prevent leakage of news.

"Subordinate Huang Yi, meet the lord!" Entering the county government, Huang Yi immediately bowed respectfully to Wang Chong.

"Get up!" Wang Chong rubbed his temples and said lightly.

To be honest, looking at Huang Yi now, Wang Chong couldn't help but have a headache.

There is no doubt that Huang Yi is a minister, Wang Chong should not have kept him by his side, but Huang Yi has contributed to the city, which is not rewarded, not to mention that there are more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in Lujiang in Xiang'an City, 4,000 more than Jinfan, Wang Chong still needs him to stabilize the morale of the army for the time being.

"Huang Yi, you have made a meritorious contribution to the city today, but what reward do you want?"

How clever is Huang Yi? How can I not understand that Wang Chong is just testing himself, if he really doesn't know how to ask for a reward, this head on his head is afraid that he will soon be lost.

"I don't dare to ask for a reward, I just hope to stay by the lord's side, saddle before and after the horse, and worry about the lord!"

Wang Chong smiled: "You are a little clever, since this is the case, stay by my side in the future to make a notebook!" ”

Huang Yi was overjoyed when he heard this: "Thank you, lord!" ”

The official position of the record office is not high, that is, it is responsible for the work of chapters, secretaries, documents, etc., at best, he is a writer of articles, and he does not have any real power, and Chen Lin, who wrote an article for Yuan Shao during the battle of Guandu, directly cured Cao Cao's head wind, and served as the secretary of the office.

However, Huang Yi's happiness is not pretended, in fact, he himself has no ambition, and he knows that he has no ability, so for those positions that may be dangerous, need to be responsible, and if they do not do well, they will be severely punished, or even executed, such as too guard, a general, etc., he will never dare to accept it.

And although the official position of the bookkeeper is not high, it is always a close minister by Wang Chong's side, as long as he can serve Wang Chong well, it is not easy to be prosperous and rich?

Wang Chong was very satisfied with Huang Yi's performance, nodded and said: "Huang Yi, now that there are many soldiers in Xiang'an City, I need you to come forward to stabilize the morale of the army, and I don't want them to go into battle to deal with Liu Xun, I just ask that when I Jinfan fights Liu Xun, don't make any trouble in the city!" ”

Huang Yi said: "Don't worry, the lord, in fact, these Lujiang soldiers may not be very loyal to Liu Xun, as long as the lord doesn't let them go into battle to kill each other with their fellow villagers, it shouldn't arouse their resistance!" ”

Wang Chong said noncommittally: "In short, you try to calm their emotions and tell them that when my Jinfan defeats Liu Xun, they will be soldiers if they are willing to stay, and if they are unwilling, they can also return to their hometowns on their own, and my Jinfan will never obstruct them!" ”

Huang Yi said: "The lord is benevolent and righteous, and the lowly ministers admire!" ”
