Chapter 455: Ji Ling

The sound of hurried horses' hooves sounded in the vast land south of the Yangtze River, and a large army marched quickly.

"Report ......"

"General Qiyu Hefei Houguo Urgent Report"

A cavalryman galloped from the rear, shouting at the head of the general.

As soon as Ji Ling pulled the reins, the generals behind him stopped, and then the boundless soldiers also stopped at the same time.

Reaching out to take the bamboo slip handed by the cavalry, he immediately opened it, and his face sank as he looked around at it.

"General, what happened?"

"Sun Ce's department was not allowed to advance in the Hou State of Hefei, and the lord urgently sent Shouchun reinforcements to help. Now the soldiers and horses of Yuzhang, who are stationed in Chaohu and Anhui County, have rushed to Chaohu Lake when they hear the wind, and the two sides have formed a momentum of confrontation."

Ji Ling paused when he said this.

A general behind him hurriedly asked.

"Sun Ce's troops are only 5,000 soldiers and horses, and now the main force of Yuzhang has converged with Lujiang County, and the number of troops is no less than 10,000. Isn't this the state of the battle just as the general expected? ”

"Lord, I was ordered to wait for the soldiers to come to Yuzhang County within ten days, so I felt a little sad in my heart."

"Ten days?"

The generals gasped at the same time.

One of the generals couldn't help but speak.

"Although there are more than 10,000 troops in our army, and there are only 3,000 soldiers left behind in Yuzhang, because Yuzhang has been guarding the mansion in the past two years, it has won the hearts of the people. I'm afraid it's not a good idea to go deeper."

"Ten days is too rushed, and it is really difficult for us to reach Yuzhang County Mansion."

A famous general spoke to Ji Ling.

Although Ji Ling's eyes were looking around, he was thinking quickly in his heart.

"When Yuzhang County dispatched the main force to Lujiang, Yuzhang's defeat was already doomed, although the general tended to fight steadily, but the lord strictly ordered that he could only take one risk"

"The three counties in the south of the Yangtze River are subservient on the surface, but the hearts of the wealthy families are not stable"

"Therefore, a big victory is needed to completely stabilize the hearts of the wealthy families in Jiangnan"

Ji Ling said to the generals.

Then he seemed to think of something, and commanded the guards beside him.

"Bring the map"

"No"

One of the guards replied to Ji Ling, and then took out the map that had been prepared a few steps forward.

Seeing this, several people hurriedly urged the war horse to follow, and opened it together in front of Ji Ling and the generals.

A huge map appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and the detailed situation of the entire Yangzhou surfaced on it.

"The Shanyue tribes are not afraid of being crippled by our army, so the lord started the battle of swallowing the Lujiang River and Yuzhang"

"Now that our army is in advance, Qiao Rui's department will arrive later, and I originally planned to launch a fierce attack on Yuzhang after the two armies converge. But I don't want the lord to order strictly, so I can only take the first step."

"Because Sun Ce's troops were in Hefei and the Hou Guo's troops pressed Chaohu, coupled with the Shouchun reinforcements that were about to arrive. The troops and horses in the area of Misukou and Anhui County have been mobilized, so the pressure brought from the north has been eliminated invisibly."

"Not long ago, Sun Ce came to the news that he was ambushed by Yuzhang Deng Dang outside the Lujiang County Mansion, so it is inferred that the general of Yuzhang County is not in the army"

"I intend to attack Panyang City, and then enter Panyang Lake from Panyang City, and directly arrive at Yuzhang Hong Kong Soldiers in Yuzhang County Mansion"

Ji Ling looked at the huge map and said slowly to the generals behind him.

The generals were all lost in thought.

"Our army can think of Panyang City, but I am afraid that the defenders of Yuzhang can also think of Panyang City, once they storm here, I am afraid that they will fall into a bitter battle."

"How to fight hard? Yuzhang County has more than 10,000 soldiers and horses. Now that the main force is far away in Lujiang and trapped in Chaohu by Sun Ce's troops, as long as we lead the army to storm Panyang City, we will be able to fight down. At that time, through Panyang Lake, arrived at the Yuzhang County Government, and the people of Yuzhang County must be panicked. The soldiers and horses of Yuzhang stationed in Lujiang will also be defeated without a fight."

Everyone spoke out one after another, saying to Ji Ling.

Listening to these people's remarks, Ji Ling once again reflected on his own plan just now.

At that moment the sound of hurried horses' hooves came from the rear, and a cavalryman spoke loudly.

"Newspaper"

"Shouchun Urgent"

The cavalryman respectfully handed the bamboo slip in his hand to Ji Ling.

Ji Ling was stunned, why did the two military intelligence arrive so closely? Is something big going to happen? No, it should have happened exactly, otherwise the second letter would not have come in such a hurry.

Thinking of this, he snatched the bamboo slip into his hand and quickly looked around at it.

The hearts of the generals hung up almost at the same time, although the annexation of Lujiang and Yuzhang was annexed, the lord had an overwhelming advantage. But the two sides are fighting, and the battlefield is changing rapidly, not to mention that Yuzhang County has a rich foundation after many years of recuperation, and it is not impossible for something bad to happen.

"Lujiang Taishou Lu Kang raised 3,000 troops to take the opportunity to send troops from the Lu'an Marquis to attack Chengde, cutting off the connection between Shouchun and the Hefei Marquis. The lord and his father-in-law led a large army to go, and the situation was not in our favor."

"The lord strictly ordered that we must come to the city of Yuzhang County within three days, so that the soldiers and horses stationed in Chaohu will be in chaos. Only then can Sun Ce's department be transferred to form a pincer attack on Chengde."

"Three days"

Ji Ling accentuated the tone of these two words, and Lu Kang's old man was really not an easy person. Fortunately, he has always adhered to the way of being a minister, and Lujiang is not rich in Yuzhang, so the army is only 3,000. Otherwise, it will become a big trouble for the lord, no, to be precise, it is already a big trouble for the lord now.

Chengde is close to Shouchun, and lives in the throat of Hefei Houguo and Shouchun, no wonder the main guild is in such a hurry.

The generals gasped at the same time, obviously their side has a large territory, a large number of troops, and strong financial resources, but why does the war just start and feel like they are being led by the nose? It seems that Lu Jiang and Yu Zhang's preparation for this time is no less than their own.

A doubt was thrown, is Yuzhang County really so easy to attack? Or do they want to work together to destroy the 15,000 soldiers and horses in Jiujiang County first, and then return to Yuzhang with a great victory? If you didn't dare to give birth to such a whimsical idea before, but judging from all indications, Yuzhang and Lujiang have already done so.

Shouchun and the Houguo of Hefei were cut off by the waist, and Chengde and Changhe Town and Chaohu had formed a pincer attack on the Houguo of Hefei. If Sun Ce's troops can be destroyed, the two sides will be able to converge at Chengde, and the troops will be directed towards Shouchun City.

It's just that Shouchun is so easy to fight? can win Chengde just because of contempt, once the lord feels the pressure, he will become serious. In the face of more than 3,000 soldiers and horses, what can they do except retreat?

Countless thoughts quickly intertwined in my mind, and my heart was difficult to make a decision for a long time.

Feeling the cold feeling coming from the two bamboo slips, a thought suddenly jumped out of my mind, maybe this was just the master's plan intentionally.

Ji Ling gritted his teeth fiercely and commanded the generals around him.

"Send the order to speed up the advance of the whole army, and be sure to arrive in Panyang City before tomorrow morning"

"No"

The generals shouted loudly, and then the soldiers put away the map and walked behind Ji Ling.

The thunderous sound of horses' hooves sounded, and more than 10,000 soldiers and horses roared away.
