Chapter 34: Night Attack
Liyang, Du Fuwei is discussing military politics with his generals, Du Fuwei is considered to be the older generation of rebels, and is one of the three major rebels together with Wagang and Dou Jiande, but his luck is not very good, there are no decent strategists under him, and he can have today's achievements, in fact, it depends on his status in the green forest and good martial arts, as well as extraordinary art of war, in terms of the use of soldiers alone, Du Fuwei is also a rare handsome talent in the world, which is somewhat similar to Lu Bu.
"Report ~ Jiangdu urgently!"
A junior colonel with a letter in his hand quickly came to the council hall, knelt on one knee, and bowed.
"Jiangdu?" Du Fuwei's expression moved, and he said in a deep voice: "Read! ”
"Yang Guang, the faint monarch, is dead, and the Jiangdu is in chaos!" The little school read that the content of the letter was not long, but the content made the faces of everyone in the tent change greatly.
"Father, this is a God-given opportunity, we are just taking advantage of the situation to use troops, if we can take Jiangdu, it will undoubtedly be a great boost to our army's morale!" A young general in a python robe had an excited look on his face, stood up and bowed.
"Yes, Chief, as soon as Yang Guang dies, once we occupy Jiangdu, our army will be able to completely control the entire Huainan." Another rugged man also stood up, one of these two people was Du Fuwei's son, and the other was Du Fuwei's confidant general, to a large extent, the attitude of the two also represented the attitude of all the generals under Du Fuwei.
"Okay, Sa'er, order you to be the vanguard, lead 10,000 troops to Jiangdu, and then my father will lead the army to support, remember, even if you can't take Jiangdu, you must take Gaoyou!" Du Fuwei slapped the table and stood up, his face as calm as water, but his eyes flashed with excitement.
Although Liyang is good, but more importantly, his strategic significance, and Jiangdu, is the most prosperous place in the south of the Yangtze River, the reason why Liyang was chosen as the foundation, is because it is the closest to Jiangdu, once the Jiangdu changes, he can quickly enter the Jiangdu City, and [***], Gaoyou is the trend of the corner of the Gongwei Jiangdu, especially Gaoyou, adjacent to Huaishui, can lead to Jiangdu.
"Son!" Husa nodded excitedly, then quickly got up, ordered troops to leave, and Du Fuwei also quickly ordered grain and grass, preparing to enter Jiangdu.
At this time, Jiangdu City has basically been decided, although the Bai Yu army is brave, but the number is too small, in the battle of tens of thousands of people, it is somewhat insignificant, and the 20,000 army of Dugu Valve cannot resist the 50,000 army brought by Shan Xiongxin, especially Shan Xiongxin and Luo Cheng, the two generals who are both civil and military, are even worse, and they have to temporarily withdraw from Jiangdu City and retreat to Gaoyou.
The Jiangdong army has just occupied Jiangdu, and after yesterday's war, although Jiangdu is not dilapidated, it cannot be compared with before, and there are a large number of aftermath that need to be taken care of.
In the corner of the city, two outstanding figures came out of a dilapidated house, looking at the Jiangdong soldiers walking by on the street, Kou Zhong's face showed a little depression, and he turned his head to look at Xu Ziling and said: "Ling Shao, it seems that we were deceived by the eldest brother very miserably this time." ”
"Even if the eldest brother doesn't occupy Jiangdu, can you occupy it?" Xu Ziling shook his head and sneered: "Now that Jiangdu is in the hands of the eldest brother, I feel better than in the hands of others, at least, looking at the people of Jiangdong, you will know that the eldest brother is still very good to the people." ”
"But I don't know why, I always feel a little uncomfortable in my heart." Kou Zhong was a little disappointed, he was also a person with great ambitions, a big city like Jiangdu, for him, he would rather let Du Fuwei occupy it than Lu Bu to occupy it, if Lu Bu occupied it, whether it was public or private, he would have no reason to fight in the future.
Yu Private, since his debut, Lu Bu has been helping the two of them, and the two are not people who repay virtue with grievances, so Lu Bu has been in Jiangdu for a day, even if Kou Zhong is ruthless in fighting Jiangdu, not only can he not get over the hurdle in his heart, but even Xu Ziling may not help him.
Yu Gong, just like Xu Ziling said, Lu Bu is very good to the people under his rule, among the princes, the lowest taxes, as well as exercises that can strengthen the body, and strong military strength is enough to ensure the safety of the people, and Kou Zhong asked himself, even if he has twice the troops, he may not be able to attack the Jiangdu, whether it is Lu Bu or Luo Cheng, Shan Xiongxin or even Duan Yucheng, he does not think that he can win on the battlefield, not to mention, there is a resourceful Shen Luoyan behind him.
"Forget it, since the south can't work, we will develop in the north, and now the Huaibei region is in chaos because of the death of the faint king, it is suitable for us to move troops, we can't wait any longer, if we wait for another two years, this world, it is the eldest brother and Li Xiaozi who are competing, and we have nothing to do." After a while, Kou Zhong swept away the decadence and said with a smile.
"Yes, I can afford to take it and put it down, this is the Kou Zhong I know." Xu Ziling smiled and patted Kou Zhong's shoulder.
North of the Huai River, that is, Xiapi, originally belonged to Yang Guang's territory, but now Yang Guang is dead, Li Mi Panhuan is in Qingzhou, Henan, Zhang Luo is attacking Luoyang, and Hebei Dou Jiande and Liu Wuzhou are also competing with each other for territory, Lu Bu occupies Jiangdu, Du Fuwei is afraid that he will not give up, and in a short time, he is not able to look north, so this place has become a vacuum area, and the Shuanglong Gang founded by Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling now has some scale, and it is the most suitable to start in this chaotic place.
The two did not go back to see Lu Bu, but left two letters to Lu Bu and Su Su respectively, and they went north directly.
Although it successfully occupied Jiangdu, the grain and grass in the city had been burned six or seven percent, and the huge palace had also been damaged, and what was worse was that the 20,000 troops of the Dugu family were entrenched in Gaoyou, and the next time, the Jianghuai army also sent a large army to surround the Jiangdu City from the other side and Gaoyou with a corner momentum, and it is impossible to control the entire territory of Jiangdu in a short period of time, and the 50,000 army cannot be mobilized as you like.
"Second Brother Shan?" At the head of the Jiangdu city, Luo Cheng came to the top of the city with a cold gun in his hand, but saw Shan Xiongxin looking at the north in a daze, and couldn't help shouting.
"Luo Cheng? What are you doing here? Shan Xiongxin looked at Luo Cheng with a little surprise.
"I have just received a flying pigeon from the lord, not to mention that I will bring the blood wolf army to come, and when the time comes, when we see the Jianghuai army camp on fire, we will send troops to attack Gaoyou, drive the soldiers and horses of these two sides out of the Jiangdu, and concentrate our forces to deal with the Jianghuai army." Luo Cheng handed the letter in his hand to Shan Xiongxin.
"Drink, it's been a long time since I've seen the Blood Wolf Army fight, but unfortunately I can't participate in person." Shan Xiongxin shook his head with a wry smile, looked in the direction of Gaoyou, and sneered: "The Dugu family has no foundation here, and sooner or later they will have to retreat, let the two of us deal with them, it's really a bit of a promotion to them." ”
"What were you thinking?" Luo Cheng nodded and agreed with Shan Xiongxin's opinion, the Dugu family is based in Luoyang, but in recent years, he followed Yang Guang to Jiangdu, in the south, if the most powerful is Du Fuwei and Lu Bu, as for Dugu Valve, whether it is Lu Bu or Luo Cheng or Shan Xiongxin, they have not put it in their eyes, at least, not at present, the south, there is no right to speak.
"I'm thinking, I don't know when I will be able to fight Li Tang if I continue to fight like this." Shan Xiongxin's eyes flashed with bitter hatred, and the hatred of killing his brother bit his soul all the time, making him restless in his sleep.
"It's not far away, as long as we hold the Jiangdu, with a springboard to the north, the lord, plus you and I and Yucheng, among the princes of the Central Plains, only the Li family can compete with us, but the premise is that he can hold Chang'an." Luo Cheng sneered.
may be because he has a close relationship with Shan Xiongxin, and he doesn't have a good impression of Li Tang.
"Well, I believe it!" Shan Xiongxin tightened the big gun in his hand, and said fiercely, Lu Bu saved him in danger several times, which made him regain his strength and gave him hope of revenge.
[***], the Jianghuai army camp, in the uncertain firelight, the two Jianghuai soldiers who are responsible for guarding the gate of the village can't stop napping, now it is the darkest moment before dawn, although these soldiers are the elite of the Jianghuai army, but still can't stop the sleepiness, although they try their best to open their eyelids, but the two eyelids are like two mountains.
The dim light can only illuminate a place within a zhang, four torches, barely shrouded the entire walled gate, just look around, but it is pitch black, nothing can be seen, such a night, the most suitable is to kill people and set fire.
In the night sky, two cold lights flashed, and people who were drowsy always reacted half a beat slower than usual, and only after a slight startle did they react, but it was too late, there was a pain in the throat, and the strength of the whole body seemed to rush to the throat, flowing out like a tide.
"Ho ho~"
The two soldiers struggled to open their mouths wide, wanting to convey the news of the enemy attack, but unfortunately, they could only make a ho-ho hissing sound, mixed in the wind, just came out, and then dissipated with the wind, the two soldiers were unwilling to widen their eyes, and looked down, several vigorous black shadows quickly made the rejection of horses and traps in front of the gate clear, and two of them quickly turned over the gate and opened the gate from the inside.
"Crunch~"
"Kill~"
The heavy gate of the village was easily opened, outside the Jianghuai camp, countless torches lit up, with a shout of killing, countless torches converged into a huge fire dragon, the black oppressive army rushed in under the faint firelight, like a torrent of troops, the soldiers on patrol were only cut down in an instant.
"Dangdang~"
In the shouting and killing in the sky, the passionate alarm bell was sounded, and the Jianghuai army also found out that something was wrong, and they grabbed their weapons and rushed out.
If it was an ordinary robbery camp, perhaps, with the quality of the Jianghuai army, it might not be successful, but what they encountered this time was not an ordinary army, but the most elite army in Jiangdong - the Blood Wolf Army!
