The fifth year of Jian'an, June 10.

The Jinfan messenger, who secretly went to his hometown to deliver a letter of persuasion, finally brought back the reply from the Zhu family.

The reply letter said that the Zhu family is willing to submit to Jinfan, and is also willing to nominate Zhu Chun to become the new head of the Zhu family, but hopes that Zhu Chun can return to his hometown as soon as possible to take over the family, because a small number of people who support Zhu Zhi are planning to support Zhu Zhi's adopted son Zhu Ran to the throne.

"It seems that the current Zhu family seems to be very unpeaceful!" Wang Chong, who had read the letter, sighed with emotion and asked Zhu Chundao, "Zhonghua, I want to hear your thoughts!" ”

Zhu Chun thought for a while and said, "Back to the lord, the last general is willing to go to his hometown to take charge of the Zhu family!" ”

Liu Ye glanced at Zhu Chun deeply and reminded: "Zhonghua, you have to think clearly, this will be a tragic battle for power, once you fail, maybe you will be stuck in your hometown forever!" ”

Zhu Chun hugged Liu Ye and said firmly: "Junshi Xie cares, but the last general has already considered it very clearly, this is the old place, if it is not successful, it will become a benevolent, for the sake of my great cause, so it is the tiger's den in Longtan, and the last general will never frown!" ”

"Well said!" Wang Chong applauded twice and looked at Zhu Chun appreciatively, "Zhonghua, if you can succeed in becoming the head of the Zhu family this time and help me Jinfan win my hometown, when the war is over, I should personally ask you to be the general of Zhenjiang, Danyang Taishou, I hope you are so self-cherished!" ”

Zhu Chun was full of excitement, and knelt down excitedly and said: "Thank you to the lord, the last general will live up to the lord's expectations!" ”

Wang Chong nodded with satisfaction and smiled: "Zhonghua is going to his hometown, in fact, there is no need to worry too much, after all, you are relying on my Jinfan tree, unless they are not afraid of my Jinfan army retaliation, they will not dare to easily harm your life!" ”

That night, Zhu Chun took Wang Chong's handwritten letter stamped with the seal of the Zhengdong General's Mansion and more than a dozen personal guards out of Deshi City, rushed to his hometown as fast as possible, and rode his horse all the way, and it took only one day to reach the destination.

Under the guidance of the Zhu family, Zhu Chun secretly entered the city. appeared in the ancestral hall of the Zhu family like a divine soldier descending from heaven, and killed several elders who opposed him becoming the patriarch of the Zhu family with his iron and bloody wrists, and the blood splashed in the ancestral hall with a knife in his hand. The scene was suddenly silent, and everyone stared at Zhu Chun, who was tall and had a cold expression, with a frightened face, but there was no objection at all.

Facts have proved that Jinfan's name is really easy to use. When Zhu Chun showed Wang Chong's handwritten letter that was full of threats between the lines, the elders of the Zhu family, who were afraid of Jinfan's retaliation, unanimously promoted Zhu Chun as the new patriarch of the Zhu family.

This night's hometown, destined to have no one to sleep, Zhu Chun personally led the troops, and began to purge Zhu Zhi's remaining descendants in the family, the skyrocketing fire, one after another screams, intertwined into a purgatory map, from then on the sky of the hometown. It will be completely dyed with the dazzling colors of the brocade.

The Zhu family is a big Danyang clan, and the forces are staggered, especially in the hometown hometown, it is also a word of the Zhu family, whether it is the county magistrate, the county governor or the county lieutenant, they are all served by the Zhu family's clansmen, so when Zhu Chun successfully became the patriarch of the Zhu family, it means that the entire hometown county has fallen under his control.

――――――――――――――――――

Jian'an 5th year, June 12.

Zhou Yu, who happened to lead the troops to Yuhang, learned that there was a change in his hometown. Immediately turned the direction and surrounded the old place, Zhu Ran, who had completely gone mad, couldn't stop scolding outside the city, but Zhu Chun regarded it as a wind in his ears, because he knew it very well in his heart. Zhou Yu was in a hurry, and he didn't have much siege equipment in his hands, and there were 3,000 soldiers and horses in his hometown, as long as he couldn't hold on, Zhou Yu would not be able to attack his hometown in the short term.

In the big tent. Zhou Yu's expression was gloomy like water, he originally wanted to go to Yuhang to sneak attack Ganning's army, but unexpectedly, he was taken by Jinfan at this time, which also made things tricky all of a sudden.

Zhu Ran asked anxiously: "Protectors, why don't you attack the city yet?" ”

"Siege?" Zhou Yu frowned and said, "Yifeng, don't be blinded by anger, you must know that we only have a total of 10,000 troops in our hands, if we launch a strong attack, even if we take the old place, how many soldiers and horses will we have to lose?" The gains outweigh the losses! ”

Zhu Ran blushed and said, "But is that all it takes?" ”

Zhou Yu said: "Sooner or later, the old family will be recaptured, but not now!" ”

Ling Cao asked puzzledly, "Since the guards don't fight their hometowns, why do they still camp here?" ”

Lu Meng smiled meaningfully: "General Ling, the guards are luring bigger fish to take the bait!" ”

"Attract big fish?" Ling Cao was stunned for a moment, then seemed to have captured something, and looked at Zhou Yu with a shocked expression, "Could it be ......?"

"Ahh Zhou Yu smiled and nodded, "If Gan Ning learns that our army is besieging his hometown, it is very likely that he will divide his troops to come north to help, and when the time comes, we can design an ambush for this reinforcement, if we are lucky, maybe we can even lead Zhu Chun out and take the hometown in one fell swoop!" ”

Ling Cao said worriedly: "But what if Gan Ning doesn't come? ”

Zhou Yu smiled indifferently and said, "Whether they come or not, we will only stay here for two days at most!" ”

Seeing that Ling Cao was still confused, Lu Meng opened his mouth to explain: "General Ling, what the protectors mean is that if Jin Fan sends reinforcements, we will design to ambush them, and if Jin Fan ignores his hometown, we will suddenly lead the troops south when they think we are still attacking his hometown, and we will be able to kill the Gan Ning army by surprise!" ”

Ling Cao finally suddenly realized, and praised: "The protector's plan is really exquisite, this time that Gan Ning, I'm afraid it will be difficult if you don't hit the plan!" ”

――――――――――――――――

Yuhang, Jinfan Daying.

Gan Ning covered his forehead with his hands and frowned.

At this time, the news that Zhu Chunbing took the hometown and Zhou Yu and Zhou Yu's subsequent siege had already reached Yuhang, and Gan Ning was now considering whether to send troops to rescue.

"Zijing, what do you think?"

Lu Su said: "As long as Zhonghua can't hold out, Zhou Yu, who lacks siege equipment, will definitely not be able to capture his hometown in the short term, and now he is camping outside his hometown, just to lead us north, and the governor must not fall into the plan!" ”

"But what if Zhou Yu really attacked the city?" Gan Ning asked rhetorically, "If the old palace is broken because of this, we are afraid that we will bear the infamy of not being able to save ourselves, and Shaolin will also be unable to explain!" ”

Lu Su said: "Just send sentries to keep an eye on the Jiangdong camp at all times, Yuhang is not far from the hometown, if you march in a hurry, it will be enough to arrive in one day!" ”

Gan Ning thought for a while and said, "Just follow Zijing's words, by the way, Wen Qian, has the thunderbolt arrived?" ”

Le Jin replied: "Back to the capital, it will be delivered early tomorrow morning, in addition, the boulders within a radius of more than ten miles have also been carried by us!" ”

A fine light shot out of Gan Ning's eyes: "Very good, let the soldiers recuperate tonight, and tomorrow, we must fight Yuhang!" (To be continued.) )
