At the sixth watch of the next day, the sky was still bright, and the army marched towards Xuyi County. Wu Qing ordered Li Duozuo to form a law enforcement team, and he personally commanded the siege!

When the army marched to the city of Xuyi County, Wu Qing drew his long sword and shouted: "Beat the drums, attack the city!" ”

The soldiers carried wooden planks and simple ladders and quickly ran towards Xuyi City, Xuyi City was only two zhang, but there was a moat outside the city that was more than two zhang wide, Wuqing did not use the method of carrying sand to fill the river, but directly used an inch thick plank to build on the river, and it could be lightly crossed.

The thieves at the head of Xuyi City had already been awakened by the sound of drums, rubbing their eyes, and when they saw the officers and soldiers rushing like ants, they couldn't help but be startled, and hurriedly reported to the guards and left.

At the same time, there was a group of more than 300 people in the city, rushed out of Liu's mansion, towards the city gate, they saw the thieves and cut down, the leader was a tall man, holding two oversized plate axes, one axe, and in a short time rushed to the city. Suddenly, this group of people seemed to be in a no-man's land, and the black man roared angrily and killed the city first.

"Brother Hei, be careful!" Guo Zhiyun yelled, and then led a few people to run towards the city gate, they wanted to open the city gate.

At this time, the thieves who defended the city rushed to the street, the five tigers of the Gao family took a hundred people to set up a formation on the street, and the high house chickens were even more beaded, and the thieves suddenly turned over on their backs, but ten breaths, a pot of carved arrows was exhausted.

At the same time, outside the city, Wu Qing held the spear in his hand high in front of the city gate, staring at the city gate without blinking.

Bang!

The city gate slowly opened, and Wu Qing's spear was raised. He shouted, "Brothers, go into the city!" ”

Pull the reins of the horse, and the first horse to enter the city. In just a moment, he rushed into the street thieves, stabbed a series of fiercely, and suddenly killed a blank around it, where had the thieves seen such a fierce general, they couldn't help but scream, and dropped their weapons. Turn around and run.

Wu Qing shouted: "Put down your arms, surrender and don't kill!" ”

By the time the cavalry behind dared to arrive, many of the thieves had already laid down their weapons. The cavalry was speechless for a while, is this general a god, one person can make so many soldiers surrender, do you still use them to fight.

At this time, the thieves at the head of the city were slaughtered. Kuroko, who had left the city, yelled, "Master. I'm coming! ”

Ran in front of Wu Qing in three or two steps, but found the thief soldier kneeling on the ground, he couldn't help scratching his head, and said angrily: "You anti-thieves, you rebel without any bones, it's really unlucky!" ”

The soldiers trembled and did not dare to talk.

Wu Qing smiled: "You black goods. They are all ordinary people, and they have been coerced to come. Then he commanded: "The generals obey the order." Taking advantage of the victory to pursue, this general will rest in Yangzhou City tonight! ”

"The last general obeys!" The generals surrendered their hands and immediately took the order and left.

Wu Qing really didn't take Xu Jingye in his eyes, so he left two teams of men and horses to guard the soldiers and garrison Xuyi to keep the grain and grass flowing for the rear army.

Wu Qingqin led 80,000 light cavalry to continue the pursuit of the thieves who fled to Gaoyou.

The Huaishui River Basin is densely networked, and the cavalry is very inconvenient to move, but fortunately, the terrain is flat, the field of vision is broad, and there is no fear of ambush.

Wuqing pursued to the west bank of Gaoyou Lake, and when he saw that the soldiers were tired and tired, he ordered him to set up camp, and then sent scouts to explore the horses.

However, in an hour, I found out the news that Xu Jingye had deployed 200,000 troops from Yangzhou to Gaoyou.

Wu Qing smiled coldly, Gaoyou is garrisoned by Xu Jingye, so it must be Xu Jingyou who is stationed on the shore of Huaishui outside Yangzhou City. Xu Jingyou, a person who is addicted to gambling, how can he lead his troops to fight? It's easy to break. But the amount of Huaishui at this time is still relatively large, and after pondering for a moment, he said: "The army rests for a day and orders someone to find a ship!" ”

Changshi Dugusi led the order to go out. Nothing was said all night.

On the second day, Changshi Dugusi came to report and found a total of 100 large and small fishing boats.

Wu Qing ordered the secretary to join the army to bring the map, looking at the map, he put his hand on Yu Jingyou's camp, and said with a smile: "Yu Jingyou is just a gambler, he expects that our army is blocked on the bank of this Huaishui and cannot cross the river for the time being." Li Duozuo, this general wants you to lead 500 elites to swim across the Huaishui tonight, sneak into Yu Jingyou's camp, and set fire to the camp. Ma Jingchen, you lead a thousand elites to swim across the river tonight, be sure to block the official road to Yangzhou for me at the end of the day, ambush both sides, and once you see Xu Jingye fleeing to the city, I will be captured. Guo Zhiyun, Dugu Qiu, Shen Liang, Dong Qian, each of you led a thousand elite soldiers to cross the Huaishui by boat at Lijia Ferry with my son, and ambushed outside Chenzhuang. ”

Every man took his own commandment.

Wu Qing didn't care whether Li Duozuo could complete the task or not, if Xu Jingye had not rescued, then he could lead 4,000 elite cavalry to exterminate Yu Jingyou along the way. For such an arrangement, although the people who recorded the army and others had doubts, they knew that Wuqing was never ambiguous in the war, and they did not dare to ask more.

As soon as the time came, Wu Qing rode out, followed by thirteen guards and one hundred personal soldiers, and then Guo Zhiyun and other four generals led the troops, and everyone slowly came to the Li family ferry. At this time, there were already soldiers and boatmen waiting at the ferry, and Wu Qing first ordered people to transport the scouts across the opposite bank, just in case.

Each boat could only carry twenty soldiers or eight horses, and Wu Qing ordered people to send 1,000 soldiers across the river first, and then 1,000 horses across the river.

In this way, it took an hour to transport all the horses and soldiers to the opposite bank, and Wu Qing gave the order and rushed towards Chenzhuang. Then he ambushed in the grove outside Chen Zhuang, waiting for Xu Jingye to pass by.

A scout came to say, "General Yu, General Li has succeeded, and Yu Jingyou sent cavalry to Chenzhuang." ”

Wu Qing smiled: "Just let it go, don't be disturbed!" ”

An hour later, I saw a large group of people and horses coming towards Chen Zhuang with torches, Wu Qing sneered, this night lighting torches is a good target for archers!

"Order all armies, prepare to attack, light cavalry bow and arrow two rounds in a row!" Wu Qing ordered, and his own heralds hurriedly issued the order to the teams.

After a while, Xu Jingye led the crowd to gallop towards Chen Zhuang, and Wu Qing shouted, "Shoot!" ”

In an instant, arrows from the woods on both sides shot at the thieves, and the thieves suddenly turned on their backs, killing and wounding.

After two consecutive rounds of shooting, Wu Qing had already raised his gun in his hand, shouted "kill", and rushed straight at the thief soldiers, and the guards followed closely behind, protecting Wu Qing's back and sides.

Fighting and roaring, one after another, Wu Qing led the guards straight to Xu Jingye like a sharp knife, and the other four generals each led the elite to cut the thieves into four sections. On the entire official road, as if countless officers and soldiers were surging, the thieves began to panic. These thieves were originally ordinary people, but they just followed Xu Jingye to make a living. Now when he encountered this wolf-like officer and soldier, he was immediately killed and had no power to fight back, and let the officers and soldiers harvest their heads. (To be continued......)
