Chapter 720 Outsmarting Wuzhou City

Numerous arrows tied with tarpaulins shot at the camp, and immediately ignited the camp, burning blazingly, and the flames soared into the sky.

At least half of the [-] Wuyue troops broke into the camp, and they were all surrounded by flames. Some fell to the ground with arrows, and some were burned, screaming and rolling.

Water and fire are merciless, Wu and Yue soldiers are trapped in the camp of fire, screaming every day should not be done, and the earth is not working. There is a sea of ​​fire, deep in it, and there is only one dead end.

This scene was too miserable, like purgatory.

Sun Chengyou ordered the withdrawal of the troops, and the soldiers fled everywhere, but the fire was so strong that all the more than 1 soldiers were involved, and the fire could swallow them without soldiers attacking at all.

The bows and arrows in the rear continued to shoot, and more and more people died in the camp.

At this time, the sound of war drums sounded, and two troops rushed out from the forest behind, from both sides of the camp, and came along the camp, intending to encircle and suppress the Wuyue deserters.

"Kill, don't let Wu Yue soldiers escape!"

"Kill all Wu Yue soldiers!"

At this time, the elite Shence army exploded with astonishing fighting power. Some cavalrymen held long-handled knives, and some infantrymen held new Wu knives. Started to crash directly.

Puff puff!
Where the blade passed, the clothes were broken and the armor was broken, causing countless casualties.

Even the Wuyue Army who did not enter the camp was defeated by the elite Shence Army who came from outside the camp.

Under the protection of soldiers, Sun Chengyou used a shield to protect the fire, and escaped with difficulty.

"Get out!"

Knowing that the general situation was over, Sun Chengyou didn't dare to fight, and fled with thousands of remnants.

However, just after fleeing for seven or eight miles, a group of soldiers and horses were killed from a mountain. It was Tai Shizhao, holding a big knife and riding a green horse. He was majestic and majestic. join the army.

When Sun Chengyou saw something bad and couldn't return to Wuzhou by the same route, he immediately turned his horse and changed direction, intending to escape to the north.

However, just five or six miles away, the drums sounded again, and Hu Chengxian led his troops to fight out, blocking and ambush again.

"Sun Chengyou, take your life."

"Kill, don't let Sun Chengyou go!"

"Ah!" Sun Chengyou was shocked when he saw this, he didn't expect that there were soldiers in ambush here, he had only [-] soldiers around him, he was powerless, so he had to hitchhike and try to rush over.

The road was blocked, and Sun Chengyou led his troops to break through from the east, planning to go to Yuezhou.

However, as soon as he walked to the Lishui River, he encountered Lin Juyi leading troops to ambush here and intercept and kill Sun Chengyou.

At this time, Sun Chengyou had no way forward, and there were pursuers behind him, his face was ashen, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and fight.

When Tai Shizhao and Hu Chengxian led troops to surround them, they joined forces and wiped out all the remnants of the army. Even Sun Chengyou himself was cut off from his horse with a knife and died on the spot.

Dongfang Daliang, the battle is over, and Yang Wufu's army has won a complete victory!
Su Chen did not withdraw his troops because of this, but sent people to act according to the plan, took Sun Chengyou's banner and corpse, found hundreds of people to dress up as Wuyue soldiers, pretended to be deserters, and fled towards Wuzhou City.

Then Tai Shizhao and Hu Chengxian were sent to lead the army in pursuit.

Three hours later, near noon, the deserters returned to the city of Wuzhou.

"Open the city gate quickly, General Sun Chengyou is wounded, and the enemy army is chasing after several miles."

The generals guarding the city saw that the people and horses in the original place were boiling, and the enemy was chasing after him. There was General Sun Chengyou's banner and horses under the city. Sun Chengyou himself was lying on the horse's back. door, let the deserters enter.

At this moment, the hundreds of remnants were disguised as elite warriors of the Shence Army. At this time, they suddenly launched a surprise attack, hacked and killed the defenders at the gate of the city, and seized the east gate of Wuzhou.

"Kill!"

"The city gate is broken."

These hundreds of warriors pulled out the Qi family knives, which were extremely sharp, even sharper than the swords, spears and spears of Wuyue soldiers. They cut off many Wuyue people's weapons when they met each other, and they fought hand-to-hand. This kind of blade is very suitable for fighting. It is an exaggeration to say that one counts as ten, but it is not a problem to count one as five.

Even if there were only a few hundred people, the city gate defenders who were killed were defeated.

At this time, a group of cavalry was the first to kill, there were hundreds of them, and the speed was extremely fast. The leader of the army was Tai Shizhao, who bravely wielded a sword, and led the troops into the city of Wuzhou along the east gate.

Hu Chengxian and Lin Juyi rushed to the city with their army behind them.

The Wuyue army in the city could not resist, some fled from the west gate and north gate, and many soldiers surrendered one after another.

When Su Chen rushed over with thousands of troops, Wuzhou City had already been captured.

This time, he used a series of tricks and calculated exhaustive strategies. He easily defeated Wuyue's elite army, and conquered Wuzhou, capturing nearly [-] Wuyue troops.

This battle demonstrated Su Chen's superb ability to use troops.

Qi Ying and Wei Dongqiang in the rear gasped when they heard the news, and felt that this Su Chen's scheme was like Zhuge Kongming's resurrection, he was really a god!

"This Su Chen, it's not easy!"

"Yeah, I thought he was a scholar and a wit before, but unexpectedly, he knows the art of war, so he knows how to use troops."

"With this person here, our great cause of restoring the country will be stable. In the future, the generals of all armies will support the new Lord Wu even more, because Su Chen is the elder brother of the new Lord Wu. He knows how to use troops so well that no one should underestimate him. Like before It's so reckless."

These two generals no longer dare to underestimate Mr. Su Chen. They used to think that he was just a talented man who knew how to be an official and could deal with some strategies for governing the country and the people in the rear. He probably didn't understand the military aspect.

But now, the two generals realized that Su Chen, who is an all-rounder in civil and military affairs, must not be underestimated, otherwise, it would be easy for Su Chen to use tricks to eliminate him.

In Wuzhou City, the Shence Army was completely occupied. Su Chen gathered generals in the commander's mansion, and praised the lieutenant generals and Marquis Du Yu who made great achievements in battle, and asked the military affairs minister to record the achievements of the generals in the credit book, waiting to discuss the merits Reward.

At the same time, Su Chen ordered the release of the list to calm the people, not to disturb the people in the city, to protect the wealthy households and scholars, and to take some of them out of the granary to help the poor people in the city, which won the hearts of the people.

"General, shall we take advantage of the victory and send troops to attack Hangzhou City north?" Tai Shizhao asked.

Su Chen thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No need for now, let's settle down in Wuzhou City now, reorganize and train the surrendered troops here, and at the same time enlist in the army, expand the army, gather food and grass from all states and counties, hoard it as military rations, and then dispatch Someone contacted General Lu outside the city of Yuezhou. When the time comes, we will first attack Yuezhou, the eastern prefecture of Wuyue, to see if Wuyue sends troops to rescue. If he rescues, then he will besiege the city. If not, first conquer Yuezhou, and then join forces to besiege Hangzhou city , You can use your troops safely!"

Tai Shizhao, Hu Chengxian, Lin Juyi and others nodded one after another, and had no objection to General Su Chen's arrangement.

As a result, Su Chen stood still and stationed in Wuzhou, ordered Qi Ying and Wei Dongqiang to station in Wuyi, temporarily rectified the troops, and then prepared to go north to join the army of Lu Chaoqun and his son.
