Chapter 728: The Fight Begins

Lu Xun looked at this area, his eyes were bright, and the fastest update access: щщщ.79XS.сОΜ.

This area is called the Lower Ferry.

The surrounding terrain is flat and the land is 'fertile', making it ideal for farming.

In the distance, on the hills, there are lush woods.

Lu Xun patiently continued to walk forward, the soldiers he was carrying were at the front, and it was close to noon at this time, staring at the scorching sun one by one, still on the road.

"The general has an order, the whole army stops advancing and rests in place. ”

Suddenly, a herald soldier shouted.

When the news spread, all the soldiers stopped and did not continue on their way.

It's the height of summer and the weather is hot.

The soldier had been walking all morning, his clothes were soaked, and it was good to be able to stop and rest.

One by one, they found a place to sit down and chatted in twos and threes.

Lu Xun also took his soldiers to rest.

There are not many soldiers around Lu Xun, only about 3,000 people.

Some of the 3,000 soldiers were on the south bank of the Yangtze River, and some were taken with them when they passed through towns along the way.

Danyang County had to be 'handed over' to Cao's army, and each town had a certain number of troops.

Along the way, Lu Xun took all these soldiers away.

Today, there are about 3,000 people.

Along the way, these more than 3,000 soldiers all ate Cao Jun's military rations, and Zhang Liao didn't say anything, how much Cao Jun's soldiers supplied, and how much Lu Xun's soldiers were supplied.

The auxiliaries began to bury the pot and make rice, and soon, the smell of rice spread in the army.

After the meal was ready, the soldiers began to eat one after another.

After Lu Xun finished eating, he returned to his place, and he glanced forward.

To get out of the ferry completely, at most a stick of incense.

After resting for half an hour at noon, Zhang Liao ordered the troops to march.

Once again, the army set out.

Lu Xun led the troops to the front, and the three thousand soldiers under his command all hurried to the road. Now the weather is hot, and after half a day of exposure, the mud on the ground has improved a lot.

It's not very difficult to walk.

After walking for about a stick of incense, it is time to walk out of the flat area of the lower ferry.

Ahead is a mountain road.

The slope of this mountain road is about 40 degrees, and the road is wide, about 5 zhang wide and nearly 100 zhang long. The mountain road is flanked by hillsides, and the slopes are forested.

After crossing the mountain road, we walked out of the lower ferry.

Lu Xun led the soldiers to the slope, a distance of nearly 100 zhang, but it took some 'spirit'.

As Lu Xun walked, he ordered his soldiers to speed up.

And the soldiers of the Cao army still maintained the original speed.

Between the two sides, there is actually a distance.

In their opinion, it was nothing more than the soldiers of the State of Wu who wanted to climb the hillside and rest on the hillside.

The distance between the two sides gradually widened.

Sanzhang!

Five!

Ten zhang!

By the time all the soldiers under Lu Xun's command climbed the hillside, the distance between the two sides had been about fifteen zhang.

This distance is enough for Lu Xun to prepare.

Lu Xun stood on the hillside, and he suddenly ordered: "Blow the trumpet and block the Cao soldiers." ”

The soldiers who followed Lu Xun immediately took action.

"Woo! woo!!"

A long voice suddenly sounded on the hillside.

Lu Xun pulled out the long sword at his waist and shouted: "Sons, follow me to kill the enemy and kill Cao Jun." ”

Many soldiers who were recruited by Lu Xun in the middle of the way 'revealed' their strange looks.

What's going on?

Didn't the state of Wu claim to the state of Wei?

Why do you suddenly want to fight back?

Among the soldiers around Lu Xun, one by one, the generals acted and quickly set up a position on the hillside with the soldiers. Immediately afterwards, in the mountains and forests on both sides of the mountain road, there were groups of soldiers who came out.

This group of soldiers is Lu Xun's real ambush soldiers.

As soon as these armies appeared, archers first entered the battlefield in batches, and then directly opened their bows and 'shot' arrows.

"Whoa!"

The dense bow and arrow formed a rain of arrows, and the Cao soldiers who were heading towards the mountain were shooting.

In an instant, Cao Jun was directly 'chaotic'.

The soldiers at the front kept retreating, trying to avoid the 'shots' of the bow and arrows.

"Knock! knock!!"

The sound of war drums sounded again on the hillside.

The rumbling sound of war drums resounded throughout the mountain, making the blood of the soldiers on the mountain boil.

The soldiers of the Wu army, who were originally stunned, all turned to start arraying, preparing to block the soldiers of the Cao army. At this time, all the soldiers of the Wu army understood that Lu Xun had faked surrender and was now going to counterattack.

"Boom!!"

Large stones weighing hundreds of pounds were pushed down the hillside.

The stones rolled down and rumbled into the Cao soldiers who were in a big 'chaos' formation.

On the mountain road, Cao's soldiers could not avoid it.

If you are hit by a stone, even if you are not killed, you will be seriously injured.

Big stones rolled down, and there was a rain of arrows to suppress it, and the Cao soldiers kept retreating, and finally they were completely suppressed, and they all retreated and retreated under the mountain road.

The situation of the battle soon spread to the Chinese army.

When Zhang Liao learned the news, he was also shocked, and he directly rode his horse forward.

At this time, Zhang Liao felt strange in his heart.

It is surrounded by a low-lying area, and even though there is a mountain road at the exit of the ferry port ahead, such a place is not impossible to overcome, and it is not the best place to ambush.

Lu Xun chose to turn his face in such a place, which is not the most suitable.

Why not Cloud Mountain?

Why not the Fushui River?

Zhang Liao thought in his heart, feeling that the situation was a little weird.

After a short time, Zhang Liao had already arrived at the front army, he saw the corpses on the hillside, and heard the wailing voices of the wounded soldiers around him, and his face was cold.

Lu Xun did this, in his opinion, a little stupid.

If Lu Xun doesn't make a move, after Zhang Liao arrives in Danyang County, Zhang Liao will directly attack Wu County, at least it will be moral.

Now, Lu Xun made the first move, and he violated morality first.

Zhang Liao is now attacking Lu Xun, and then taking advantage of the situation to capture Danyang County, and then attack Wu State, which is reasonable.

Wei State cannot be blamed for all this.

Zhang Liao raised his head and stared at the Wu soldiers on the mountain, his eyes sharp.

By this time, the soldiers had already retreated.

The soldiers of the Wu army on the mountain did not design any more arrows.

Zhang Liao shouted: "Where is Lu Xun?"

Lu Xun was dressed in armor, standing on the hillside, his face was calm, and he said loudly: "Zhang Liao, Lu Xun is here." ”

Zhang Liao said: "Lu Xun, King Wu promised to 'handover' Danyang County, but you laid an ambush on the mountain and killed my soldiers. You violated the covenant between Wei and Wu, and today, the general will take you down, capture Wu County, and question King Wu face to face. ”

"Kill!"

With a wave of his hand, Zhang Liao gave the order to attack.

It's just a mountain road of more than 100 zhang, and it's not a fortified city.

At the very least, it would be easier to capture this road than to conquer the city.

The Wei soldiers charged and rushed towards the mountain road.

Lu Xun sat on the mountain, his face was calm, and there was no trace of panic. He calmly commanded the soldiers to attack with arrows, and then pushed down large stones to block the Cao soldiers.

The two sides fought, and the Cao soldiers were completely 'exposed' under the bow and arrow.

Although the Cao soldiers gradually advanced on the mountain road, the casualties were also quite heavy.
