Wuling County was affected by the disaster, there was a shortage of food, and there were tens of thousands of refugees, so of course Wancheng could not sit idly by, and the food for disaster relief continued to be delivered to Wuling County.

Chu Lianyu took this opportunity to first divide the first army under Ding Feng into pieces and divide it into several parts, and then let a group of people dress up as light and strong people who transported grain, and let the other part hide in the carriage loaded with grain.

Under Chu Lianyu's arrangement, the disguised Jin army went to a group every three or five times, sometimes a day to go to a dozen batches, the local people in Wancheng did not understand the inside story, when people saw the convoy of grain transport continuously drove away from Wancheng, only when the situation of the affected counties was serious, at this time, the cohesion of the Jin people was shown, no one organized, no one to agitate, the people began to spontaneously donate money and grain to the government, hoping to alleviate the national disaster with their own modest efforts.

Chu Lianyu used this method, and then repeated the old trick, and sent all the second legions out of Wancheng unknowingly.

The transfer of 200,000 people in the Jin country, the Mu country was not only unaware, but what was even worse was that the Mu country also got a wrong message, the flood in the Jin country was extremely serious, and the whole country had been poured into the rescue, and the national strength of the Jin country was further consumed.

At this time, Liu Ji, the king of wood, who had originally ordered the Mu army in the territory of Jin to not act rashly, began to act again, thinking that this was the best time to seize Wuling County.

He summoned civil and military ministers to discuss the matter.

But when Liu Jigang put forward his idea, he was opposed by most of the courtiers in the court.

According to the ministers, they have always underestimated the fighting power of the Jin State, which can be seen from the crushing defeat of the Red Army. How strong is the combat effectiveness of the Jin army, even if there is a serious flood in the territory of the Jin country now, but the military strength still exists, if it really has a head-to-head battle with the Jin army, it is still unknown who will win and who will lose.

Just when Liu Ji was hesitating, General Mingquan came out of the ranks. He smiled at Liu Ji and said: "The king wants to send troops to attack Wuling County, why rush for a while? Now that the Jin country is seriously flooded, and the national strength is damaged, I am afraid that it will not be able to recover within a few years. ”

Liu Ji heard this. Nodding secretly, he felt that what Mingquan said was reasonable.

In the end, Liu Ji adopted Mingquan's insight and did not attack the Jin State for the time being, and strengthened his troops and horses, in order to attack the Jin State in the future.

But before the recruit training of Mu Guo was completed, it was not a few days. An urgent report came back from the east that the army of the Red Kingdom had suddenly crossed the border between the two countries. Entering the territory of the Wood Country, and overnight, the three cities on the border between the two countries were captured in succession, and the defenders of the three cities of the Wood Country and the people in the city almost did not survive, and all of them were brutally killed by the Red Army.

When the news reached Liu Ji, it was late at night. When the latter heard this, he jumped directly from the bed to the ground angrily, and shouted loudly: "What a despicable and shameless Red Country, I was kind enough to ally with you at the beginning, but now you have withdrawn from the army without saying anything." If you dare to occupy my city, kill my soldiers, and slaughter my people, I will make you pay with blood!"

Liu Ji nervously convened hundreds of civil and military officials in the court and entered the palace to discuss matters.

After the ministers heard the news, they were all taken aback, and they couldn't understand why the Red Country, which had always been friends with their own country, suddenly became difficult.

General Mingquan frowned, and said faintly: "Strange! The Red Kingdom and our country have always been friendly with each other, and there is frequent trade between them, this time Weishenme suddenly sent troops to our country? Is there any misunderstanding?"

"Bullshit misunderstanding!" Liu Jimeng slapped the table and said in a cold voice: "It must be that the Red King has made a lot of benefits in the Jin Kingdom, so he has paid attention to us, no matter what kind of misunderstanding, the Red Kingdom invaded my territory and killed our soldiers and civilians is a fact, is it tolerable or unbearable!" General Ming?"

"The last general!" Mingquan heard Liu Ji's summons, hurriedly stepped out of the ranks, and intervened to give a salute.

"This king ordered you to be the commander of the three armies, lead 150,000 troops, set off immediately, go to the eastern border, and it is bound to annihilate the invading Red Army, there must be no mistake!" Liu Ji wanted to mobilize an army of 150,000 at once, which can be regarded as ruthless.

"The last prize is obeyed!" Mingquan hurriedly intervened to receive the order.

"En!" Liu Ji said, "Then you go!"

"The last general obeys the order!" Mingquan didn't dare to delay any longer, and intervened to give a salute: "King, the last general will go north to order troops, destroy the red thief, and avenge the shame of the country!"

Seeing Liu Ji nodding, Mingquan turned around and strode out.

The Red Army sneaked up on the border towns of Mu Country, attracting 150,000 Mu Country troops to encircle and suppress it, and this matter was also reported back to Wancheng of Jin Country as soon as possible, and Chu Lianyu, who received the information, jumped up and down happily, and immediately rushed to Lin Haotian's residence to make the matter clear.

After Lin Haotian heard the news, he was naturally extremely excited, Mu Guo suddenly transferred another 150,000 troops, it was really heaven to help me! Lin Haotian pondered for a moment, and then asked: "At present, how many troops are still in the Mu Kingdom?"

Chu Lianyu said: "It is reported that there are about 100,000 people, and with this number of people, it is impossible to send reinforcements to my Dajin Country." ”

"Haha, okay!" Lin Haotian looked up on his back, and after a while, he squinted his eyes and said quietly: "Now, it's the turn of Mu Guo to repay his debts!"

......

The Red Army's attack on the Wood Country was not many, but it was elite, and the Red Army's attack was sudden, and the Wood Country was unprepared, so at the beginning of the war, the Red Army was overwhelmed, and the Wood Army defending the city was powerless to resist.

Within three days, the Red Army had taken down six cities in the Wood Country, almost swallowing up an entire county in the eastern border of the Wood Country.

Zuihou, the county guard of his county, gathered all the wooden soldiers of the county together, formed an army of 30,000 people, and pulled away to fight a head-on battle with the Red Army.

If these 30,000 people defend the city, they may be able to block the Red Army, but in a head-to-head battle, it is undoubtedly to use their own shortcomings to meet the enemy's strengths.

The 30,000 Mu Army, under the personal command of the county guard, met a 50,000 Red Army that was invading southward, and the two sides clashed on the plain.

At the beginning, the Red Army was advancing in a phalanx of infantry, but under the arrow array of the wooden army, the Red Army suffered huge losses, and the infantry phalanx was also shot back.

There have been few battles between the wood country and the red country, and they are not familiar with the characteristics of the red army, seeing that the other party only sent five thousand cavalry to attack their own camp, the county chief laughed, thinking that the other party was hitting the stone with an egg, even the fool understands that the cavalry is the nemesis of the infantry, and the archers are the nemesis of the cavalry.

When the Red Cavalry had fully charged more than half, the county leader did not hurry to issue the order to release the arrows, but the wooden army did not release the arrows, this arrow, immediately saw that something was wrong, their arrow array was not good at all on the body of the Red Cavalry, the other party seemed to be an iron man stone sculpture, the arrow rain on the body, clanging, but not hurt people in the slightest.

At this time, the county guard's hair was almost erected, and he hurriedly changed the order and asked the soldiers to shoot the enemy's war horses.

The knight armor of the hoplite cavalry is thicker, and the armor of the war horse is thicker, especially in front of the war horse, the armor leaf is thickened by several points, no matter how sharp your arrows are, you can't shoot through such a thick armor leaf.

It's useless to shoot people, it's useless to shoot war horses, this time the county leader is dumbfounded, but how can the enemy on the battlefield give you time to think about how to deal with it, soon, the Red Country heavy cavalry rushed to the front of the wooden army camp, no need to move, just the cavalry rushed out of the crowd, and stepped to death and trampled countless injuries between walks and passes, and the 30,000 wooden army was in chaos in an instant.

At this time, the infantry of the Red Kingdom went into battle again, and more than 40,000 infantry separated in a fan shape, surrounded the 30,000 wood legions, and then besieged them together.

In this battle, the wooden army was beaten very badly, there were heavy cavalry in the camp on a rampage, there were enemy infantry outside the camp to attack, the soldiers fell one after another, and in less than half an hour, there were only more than 10,000 people left in the 30,000 wooden army.

Seeing that the battle could no longer be fought, the county leader gave up resistance and ordered all the surviving soldiers below to lay down their arms and surrender to the Red Army.

It stands to reason that the surrendered army that has lost its fighting spirit is usually not killed, but the Red Army understands that if it wants to protect itself, it must destroy the living Liliang of the Wood Country, and besides, the Red Army, which has been advancing eastward, cannot bring so many prisoners.

The generals of the Red Kingdom were not polite at all, and executed more than 10,000 wooden soldiers who surrendered, including the head of the county.

This battle is the battle of the eastern frontier that will be unforgettable in the wood country. (To be continued......)
