Retaining the captives is an exploration, but it has also caused a lot of trouble, although Yang Rui only captured the weapons and equipment of the captive soldiers, and did not implement binding to restrict their freedom, but the feelings of these soldiers are naturally not too high, and the speed of action has become a big drag for Yang Rui.

Yang Rui only sent a few thousand soldiers to the rear of the palace, and was specially responsible for escorting these prisoners, so as not to affect the speed of the army's advance, while the people in the front marched at full speed and pounced on the county town of Wuyan.

Towards the end of the evening, Yang Rui's army had already reached the vicinity of Wuyan County, and Wuyan County had obviously received the news in advance, the four city gates had been closed, and the guards on the city gates and city walls were also very vigilant.

Yang Rui's former army had just appeared, and he was discovered by the other party almost immediately.

However, this is also an unavoidable situation, Yang Rui has as many as 150,000 soldiers and horses all the way, and it is impossible to hide his whereabouts, and a surprise attack can only be carried out at the stage when the other party is unprepared.

"What is the best way to do it?" Facing the saltless city with the city gate closed, Yang Rui turned his head to ask Guo Jia for advice.

Previously, Yang Rui had sent the bandit leaders to secretly reconnoitre, and the number of guards in Wuyan City was actually only thousands, if Yang Rui directly waved his army to attack, it would not be too much of a problem to take this county in a short time, but it would inevitably be a little damaged.

Moreover, according to the news that Yang Rui obtained, Wuyan County Commander - Fu Wen is a rather upright person, judging from the current situation of Wuyan City, the other party is probably going to resist to the end.

happened to have Guo Jia by his side, and Yang Rui also asked him for advice. And since Guo Jia agreed to Yang Rui to come to Liu Dai together, he was naturally willing to make some efforts.

"Returning to the state pastor. Guo Jia has a plan. Or maybe it doesn't cost a single soldier. You can take this salt-free city. It's just that there is no guarantee that it will be successful, and I also ask the state pastor Rong Guojia to give it a try. Guo Jia said after a moment's consideration.

Yang Rui was overjoyed when he heard it, if Guo Jiazhen could take down a city out of thin air, it would be enough to prove that his talent was high.

In reality, Guo Jia's fame is very great, which is of course related to the popularity of some people, but Yang Rui believes that among the strategists in the Three Kingdoms period, it cannot be said that anyone must be much stronger than whom, but the field he is good at and the conditions he is in are limited.

Especially in games. This is even more so, there are no invincible NPCs, and there are no useless skills.

NPCs at the same level do not necessarily talk about who is stronger than whom, but which aspect of their skills they are better at, for example, Sun Gan's two skills - coordination and quick effect, may not be very effective in fighting and killing enemies, but they have a great effect in territory development.

Yang Rui treats Guo Jia the same way, Guo Jiazhi's talent cannot be doubted, which is also the reason why Yang Rui wants to keep him as much as possible, otherwise it will be a big trouble to fall on any opponent; But Yang Rui will not ignore the abilities of others. thinks that Guo Jia is omnipotent.

"Filial piety can be assured to do whatever it takes, all things in war. No one has a chance of victory, otherwise there will be no need to fight. Therefore, Feng Xiao Da does not have to worry about anything."

After listening to Yang Rui's words, although Guo Jia did not show anything on the surface, he also let go a lot in his heart. Obviously, Yang Rui's style of action is completely different from Yuan Shao, the Taishou of Bohai, and his understanding of the success or failure of the war is also clearer.

After that, Guo Jia went down to prepare with all his might, and about an hour later, he appeared in front of Yang Rui again, and there was an extra letter in his hand to persuade him to surrender, asking Yang Rui to look at it.

Yang Rui took the letter and checked it, and found that the letter written by Guo Jia was somewhat similar to the previous letters made by Chen Lin, and it was full of the light of stunt skills.

It turns out that Guo Jia also has similar skills to Chen Lin, but he doesn't know what the specific function of the skill is.

As for what Guo Jiaxin wrote, half of it was in praise of Yang Rui's character and how to maintain the social welfare of the Han family, counting Yang Rui's previous contributions to the Han family, and how he did in Qingzhou, making the state prosperous and the people rich.

At the same time, Guo Jia also reiterated Liu Dai's previous brazen attack on Qiao Mao, the Taishou of Dongjun, and the interception of Yang Rui, detailing Liu Dai's wrongs, reprimanding his private soldiers for sabotaging the state and county, and making the people miserable and displaced.

After comparing the morality, words and deeds of Yang Rui and Liu Dai, Guo Jia began to reprimand Wuyan County Lingwen, refuting it to the point that it was incomplete and stupid!

Guo Jia said that Zou Wen's desperate defense of the city was a disaster to the living beings in the city, and it was in the name of killing innocent people to become a person, and saying that his responsibility for Liu Dai was aiding and abusing! Anyway, it's always been scolding, and there are no good words to persuade or anything like that.

This made Yang Rui couldn't help but be surprised, no matter how you look at Guo Jia's letter, it doesn't look like a persuasion! Could it be that Guo Jia still has a back hand?

After Yang Rui read it, he handed the letter to Guo Jia and let him deal with it, without asking anything more. Sometimes asking too much and being too careful may restrict the other party's performance, after all, Guo Jia is not Yang Rui's subordinate now.

However, it was such a letter that really worked, just half an hour after Guo Jia asked people to send the letter into Wuyan City, Zou Wen, the commander of Wuyan County, suddenly opened the east gate of the city and took a group of officials and more than 5,000 soldiers out of the city.

"Wuyan County ordered Zou Wen to see Lord Lieyang Prefecture!"

Yang Rui's main tent is outside the east gate of Wuyan, the moment the city gate is opened, Yang Rui was alarmed and came to the front of the battle, first saw Zou Wen leading a group of soldiers, going to the scene of asking to see, immediately Yang Rui's heart was also surprised, looking at Guo Jia standing beside him, but Guo Jia just said that it was a fluke.

"Wuyan County ordered Zou Wen to see Lord Lieyang Prefecture!" At this time, the county commander Zou Wen said loudly again.

After this reminder, Yang Rui looked at Zou Wen County Commander who was out of the city again.

Originally, Yang Rui thought that Zou Wen would be a well-known man, but after really seeing the real person, he found out that Zou Wen was five short figures, with a white face, and a scholarly face, which was a lot different from what Yang Rui had thought before.

"The sun is here, Zou Wen County Order, please come forward and speak."

Zou Wen unloaded his armor and led the troops out, and the soldiers did not carry any weapons in their hands, Yang Rui knew that the other party had given up resistance, and he was naturally very easy-going when talking to him.

"Zou Wen has seen the Lieyang Prefecture Shepherd, and he has heard that the Lieyang Prefecture Shepherd is benevolent and righteous, and now Zou Wen is willing to take the saltless guards to relieve the armor and be ambushed, and please don't embarrass the saltless people."

Under Yang Rui's greeting, Zou Wen really surrendered with a group of soldiers, just begging Yang Rui not to embarrass the people in the city. So far, Guo Jia's letter has been completely done!

For Zou Wen, who took the initiative to abandon the city, Yang Rui made another small attempt, and let him stay in the post of Wuyan County Commander, and the rest of the city guards also ordered him to return to his old duties to protect the safety of Wuyan City.

Yang Rui also has the idea of buying people's hearts, it would be better if the county commander Zou Wen could lead all the soldiers to his name!

However, the system did not let Yang Rui get his wish, Yang Rui reinstated the officials and naturally gained some people's hearts, but the color of Zou Wen's camp of the officials and soldiers of Wuyan City became neutral yellow, neither subordinate to Liu Dai nor obeying Yang Rui's orders, I am afraid that only the Han family can be transferred

In the end, Yang Rui thought that it would be better to capture them all back!

However, Yang Rui did not regret much time for this, the purpose of his trip was to weaken Yang Rui, Wuyan City and the soldiers who defended the city no longer belonged to Liu Dai, and Yang Rui's purpose was achieved.

Of course, there are also 20,000 points of plot merit and points obtained by taking the medium-sized city of Wuyan City, and 20,000 points of contribution points of the princes were also plundered by Liu Dai.

Perhaps because it was only classified as a remnant surging task link and not a real crusade against Dong Zhuo's forces, Yang Rui attacked Liu Dai and two cities one after another without receiving system prompts, but only increased the corresponding contribution value, point value and merit value.

If Yang Rui hadn't paid close attention to it, he might not have noticed the changes

Next, Yang Rui and his people rested in and around Wuyan City for a day, and in the early morning of the second day, they set up camp again and cut west into the first city in Dongjun - Shouliang City.

Shouliang City is located in the southeast of Fan County, although it is not a county-level city, but it is the hub of water and land transportation, and it also belongs to the scale of the intermediate city.

Yang Rui didn't know the specific number too clearly, at least there were 10,000 or 20,000 soldiers.

When Yang Rui led the crowd to the city of Shouliang City, the soldiers in the city were also ready to defend the city, and when they opened their mouths and closed their mouths, they scolded Yang Rui's subordinates.

Yang Rui surrounded the city and was about to discuss the siege, but at this time, an old friend found him.

"Oh, Boss Lieyang, let's hurry all the way, and finally catch up. You Qingzhou soldiers are really majestic, but they won't let us in alive or dead, so we have to report it later! Boss Sun is really big now."

Here, Yang Rui had just landed, and the boss of the Wanyue Alliance, the Remnant*, was already panting and running over.

"The crippled * boss is smiling, please sit inside"

Yang Rui and the Wanyue Alliance have always had a cooperative relationship, and the blueprints of the Ge boat and a large number of fourth-order sailor skill books were all traded from the Wanyue Alliance, and the Wanyue Alliance also needed the high-grade wood provided by Yang Rui.

"Boss Lieyang, I won't beat around the bush anymore, the purpose of my visit this time is to take refuge in Qingzhou, I don't know if Boss Lieyang is willing to take him in?"

After chatting with Yang Rui for a few words, it was clear that Yang Rui didn't have much time to accompany him, so he directly stated the purpose of this trip.

Yang Rui was stunned, the Wanyue Alliance wants to take refuge? He's never wanted to have too much to do with the players! (To be continued......)
