Chapter 368
Xuzhou, Guangling City.

From the first day of Chen Deng's tenure as the prefect of Guangling, the city wall was being built here all the time, and the warehouse in charge of Lu Yu spared no effort to allocate funds for the defense of Guangling.

Over time, the tens of feet high walls of Guangling City now seem to be like dragons lying on the land. There is a sense of sight of Jiuren Mountain, and the contempt for the world. It seems that it is so impenetrable.

At this moment... In stark contrast to the banners and armors of the Sun Family Army outside the city that spread all over the river, the traffic in the city is full of traffic, which looks peaceful and joyful.

However, from the numerous scars on the city wall, it can be seen that the defenders were not blinded by peace and fear in peace.

However, this night was a little too quiet.

For some reason, the entire Guangling City was quiet, and the soldiers of the defenders in the past did not appear, and it seemed extraordinarily silent, as if this was an empty city.

——"General Sun, it seems... the defenders of Guangling City have retreated, retreating to Donghai County in the north of Xuzhou."

——"General Sun, now is a good opportunity to land and attack Guangling City!"

——"General Sun, don't miss this opportunity, never miss it again!"

A group of lieutenants pleaded with Sun Quan!

They traveled by land and water, and it is true that Guangling City faces water on three sides, but... to attack the city, even a large ship can hardly help, the first thing to do is to land and attack the city with ladders.

Can be…

This is the landing. Over the past year, Sun Quan has suffered numerous losses. It seems... Chen Deng, the guard of Guangling City, is quite good at attacking halfway!
——"General Sun..."

——"General Sun..."

A group of lieutenants are still calling for battle...

At this moment, Sun Quan was standing on the bow of the building boat, looking at the Guangling City in front of him.

Quiet, quiet too weird.

Can…

And quietly within reason.

He was too familiar with the number of defenders in Guangling City, but they were only 5000 to [-]. After the fall of Xiapi City, they had become an isolated city, and it was impossible for them to rush to rescue.

Therefore... they are very likely to settle for the next best thing, abandon Guangling City, and go to Donghai County to garrison instead. Using this as a barrier is a good strategy, at least... if Sun Quan is the guard, he will do this.

call…

Take a long exhale.

Sun Quan's eyes became tighter. Could it be...is this city, which has been invincible for a long time, really an empty city?

Rather than…

Immediately, he made up his mind, "Order the three armies to land!"

"Here..." A group of deputy generals took orders and went to make arrangements. This Guangling City has hindered them for too long, and they hope too much...to capture this city!
Quiet, still silent and quiet.

Guangling City at night is like a ghost town, silent, eerie, terrifying!
...

The Jiangdong army moved, and they began to dock...

During the docking process, they were very excited and carried away their excitement!
In the past, their lord Sun Bofu was defeated in Lujiang, and fled in embarrassment after being beaten. Every Jiangdong child dreamed of revenge in his heart.

now…

The opportunity for revenge is at hand, as long as Guangling City is captured, they will be able to brag to others, "The Cao Jun, who can't win, the lord, was beaten into a sieve by us!"

As the vanguard general, Sun Yi was also panting "puchipuchi", feeling extremely happy, and finally he was about to attack the city.

He is the third younger brother of Sun Ce and Sun Quan. In this battle... the reason why Sun Ce sent his two younger brothers to participate is to use this battle to let them earn meritorious service and become famous in Jiangdong!
Different from Sun Quan, Sun Yi was standard with well-developed limbs and a simple mind. As the ship got closer and closer to the shore, he became extremely excited.

but…

He saw that among the many "Cao" flags raised on the city tower, there were a few more black "Long Xiao" military flags, which made his eyes flash a little differently, "Dragon "Xiao" is not only in the Central Plains, even in Jiangdong, it makes people fearful!

fine…

Today's great situation has given Sun Yi a lot of courage. To him, he is ten times stronger than the enemy. Moreover, he... the younger brother of the little overlord of Jiangdong will go out in person. Even if the Long Xiao battalion is here, it will be in vain!
Countless Jiangdong disciples grinned, eager to try.

In their eyes, what they saw was an empty city!
The one who breaks in first will have the greatest credit for being the first to get there, enough to get a large bounty!

But at this moment on the city tower, under the cover of the city wall, Chen Deng squatted down, silently watching every move of the enemy.

He felt that his heart was about to jump, he held the saber and Lingqi tightly in his hand, and his mood was surging...

On the other hand, the defenders who were also hiding behind looked calm.

Perhaps it's because of Chen Deng's words... This strategy is left over from Lu Situ's bag. Lu Situ's bag of tricks, these words, all the time... always give people a different sense of security!
But only Chen Deng knew that this was the strategy of Hammer Lu Situ, and he, Chen Deng, made up such nonsense!

"Quiet, keep quiet!"

Chen Deng whispered...

Seeing the Jiangdong soldiers landed, his mood was already in his throat. You must know...he had already missed an opportunity to "hit him halfway across".

On the other side...

After Sun Yi landed, he waved his long knife, "Boys, follow me to kill..."

Facing the city that was so close at hand, Sun Yi's excitement was beyond words, and his expression seemed to be the New Year's Eve.

Chen Deng on the top of the city tower was still holding down his saber firmly, without making a sound. He was afraid that the defenders would hear the sound of the other party's siege, so he screamed and rose up to resist!
He looked extraordinarily calm.

"Don't move, anyone who dares to move will be dealt with by military law!"

"With Sun Quan, Jiangdong's soldiers will not attack the city, and will never attack the city!"

Chen Deng was quite sure...as if he had seen through Sun Quan long ago. In fact...For him, let alone Sun Quan, he could see through everyone in the entire Sun family!

really…

It was at the stall where Sun Yi took the lead to charge forward.

"Uncle Bi stay here..." Sun Quan shouted immediately...

"Second brother." Sun Yi didn't know why, so he turned his head to face Sun Quan. "The time to break the city is right in front of us, so don't miss it. Why is Second Brother stopping me?"

"Third brother!" Sun Quan patted him on the shoulder. "Did you notice the black 'Longxiao' military flag on the tower?"

"Longxiao military flag? So what?" Sun Yi looked confident.

"In the past, when our eldest brother Lujiang was defeated, it was because he underestimated the Long Xiao camp and Lu Yu that he was hit by the plan of inviting the king into the urn and ambush from all sides!"

Sun Quan's words were quite firm, and he fixed his eyes on Guangling City, which was within easy reach.

"In order to ensure everything is safe, we are not allowed to attack the city tonight, and set up camp first... The soldiers of each battalion cleared the bushes and hillsides around the city to ensure that there is no ambush, and then I will enter the city."

Compared with Sun Ce and Sun Yi, this blue-eyed son, Sun Quan, is undoubtedly the wiser and more thoughtful one.

How the eldest brother lost in the Lujiang battlefield, he has already simulated countless times in his heart...

It can be said to be vivid!

Every detail was embedded in his heart, which made him pay extra attention, especially the word "Long Xiao"!
In addition, it is dark now, and they rushed into the city rashly. If there are ambushes around and in the city, under the dark night, they are not familiar with the place, how can they discern the direction?How to defend against the enemy?
In any case, we have to wait until dawn to break the city again...

Sun Quan boasted that this idea was foolproof!
"Oh... oh..." Sun Yi suppressed the eagerness in his heart, and scratched his head.

When the second brother said this, he felt it was reasonable...

It's not bad for a while, clear the periphery first, and wait until dawn tomorrow morning, even if there is an ambush in the city, but the strength of the troops is very different, so what?
"Okay!" Sun Yi agreed. "Then I will lead my troops to inspect the surroundings to see if there is an ambush near Guangling City."

"It couldn't be better!" Sun Quan nodded. "Then there will be the third brother Lao!"

then…

Sun Quan commanded the soldiers to set up camp outside the city, while Sun Yi led more than [-] people in five ways to search for ambushes around them.

One hour, two hours...

The military camp has been settled...

The three groups of people also returned to the camp...no ambush was found. At this moment...including Sun Quan, everyone in the entire army village let out a long breath of air.

After returning from the fourth road, it was explained... still no ambush was found.

The entire Jiangdong Army Village was even more slack.

It wasn't until the fifth road... when Sun Yi personally led the troops back, and there was no ambush around Chen Ming, that the big stone in everyone's heart fell smoothly.

Sun Yi wanted to attack the city directly, but Sun Quan greeted...

Wait for another two hours, don't rush this moment, wait until dawn before attacking the city. In this way, even if the enemy army lays an ambush in the city, they can calmly deal with it with their strength!
——"The three armies take a rest, start cooking in advance, and two hours later, the army will attack the city!"

Sun Quan immediately ordered...

- "Here!"

A group of cadres including Sun Yi will surrender their orders. For a moment, they felt that... the second son of the Sun family in Jiangdong, his use of troops is completely different from that of the little overlord Sun Bofu. He is calmer, more meticulous, and more wise!

For a while, many Jiangdong disciples admired the second grandson.

...

There is still an hour until the dawn of dawn...

It's the darkest time before dawn...

——"The report... found that the Jiangdong Army Village under the city is cooking food! The entire Sun Family Army's defenses are lax, and most of the soldiers are sleeping in the tent."

On Guangling City, a slight voice came out.

"it is good!"

Chen Deng finally let out a long breath, he has been squatting in the city for half the night...

also the same...

At this moment, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

——"According to the original plan, attack and rob the camp!"

a command...

Crowds were crowded on the city tower, and countless soldiers moved quickly towards the city gate. They tried their best to keep their footsteps as light as possible. Will you notice?
After half a cup of tea...

Doom has struck!
The gates of Guangling City were wide open, and countless defenders rushed out, launching a surprise attack on the Jiangdong Army Stronghold outside the city!
"Dong dong dong..."

Chen Deng personally beat the drums on the tower of Guangling City to cheer. When the Jiangdong soldiers heard the sound of the drums, they thought it was the start of their own army's general attack. They walked out of the tent lazily, but they bumped into countless sabers and spears !
And then... was inexplicably stabbed into a hedgehog!
The defenders of Guangling City seem to be crazy...

One by one, like the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves, they stretched out their spears, stabbing randomly...

Actually understandable...

After all, in their view, this is the clever plan of Long Xiaoying Commander Lu. In the past... Lujiang's big victory over the little overlord Sun Bofu, wasn't it because of Commander Lu's exhaustive strategy?

The defenders of Lujiang City have made great achievements one by one. I heard that the gold they received from the family is enough to marry the third wife!
At that time, the defenders of Guangling City were crying with envy, and they dreamed that when... it would be their turn to make contributions "with ease" under Commander Lu's ingenious plan.

Today... just in time!

Under the premise that Long Xiao's camp commander never made a mistake in his strategy, they knew they would win, so...the only difference is how many heads can be beheaded and how much meritorious service can they make?

There is nothing more exciting than "making meritorious service".

"Make meritorious deeds, just today!"

Among the Guangling defenders, someone shouted.

Immediately... these soldiers, ah no... To be precise, the black beads in the eyes of these wolves began to light up, projecting streaks of brilliant green light!
The excitement in his heart seemed to be floating on the clouds, and he was so excited that even the shouts of killing were filled with joy.

In the world... there is no such joyful and excited mood, and the soldiers shouted "Wow" excitedly, and their eyes were red with excitement.

These enemies in the Jiangdong Army Village are like prey!

In addition... Sun Jiajun was unprepared, and was beaten and fled in all directions. The Sun Jiajun in the military camp wanted to retreat to the boat, but how could there be time?I had no choice but to abandon the ship and escape, but... the defenders of Guangling City are like dog skin plaster, chasing after him!

After all, every head is a credit, and the excitement of grabbing heads... makes them get carried away!
"ignition…"

Chen Deng on the tower of Guangling City seemed to be tired from beating the drum. He turned around, handed the drumstick to a soldier, and immediately ordered the next step indifferently.

In an instant, countless flames shot out from the bushes around Guangling City...followed by...

"Kill...kill!"

Sentence roaring and shouting...

It turned out that Chen Deng ordered people to prepare a large amount of firewood early in the morning. Two bundles formed a pile. Taking advantage of the army's attack, he sent people to arrange firewood every ten steps around the city and county. When it was deep, all the firewood was lit, coupled with the heart-piercing shouts of the soldiers, it seemed that reinforcements had arrived.

On the other hand, Sun Quan...

I was caught off guard by being killed and hadn't reorganized the army yet, but seeing the continuous flames outside the city, the enemy soldiers were so excited one by one...

Obviously, this is not an ambush by the enemy, so... it is... it is the reinforcements!

No wonder... they dare to take the initiative!

The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable Sun Quan felt... He also didn't care about ordering to revive the drums of battle, and gather to fight again. At this time... he could only order to retreat and try to recover the losses as much as possible!
And with the "retreat" military order, Sun Jiajun's psychological defense completely collapsed.

Facing this scene of flames soaring into the sky, no one could remain calm. They fled like crazy, trampled on each other like crazy, and the so-called retreat turned into a rout in an instant!
And see this situation.

Chen Deng's eyes narrowed, and he lifted the flag from his right hand.

Four words came from the mouth. "Communicate all the generals—the whole army assault!"

——"Report to Prefect Chen, even though the enemy army is retreating, the number is still huge!"

Someone who joined the army reminded...

"No problem!" Chen Deng said calmly. "Pass the order down, don't chase them too quickly, consume them slowly, Sun Zhongmou is not Sun Bofu, he can't hold back, wait for his mentality to collapse, and then..."

Speaking of this, Chen Deng paused for a moment, then smiled and uttered four words: "All in one fell swoop!"

"As ordered!"

"But..." Jianjun was still asking. "But what if they escape back to the ship?"

Chen Deng put his hands on the city wall, and then glanced at the soldier. "What do you think? If Long Xiao was the commander of the camp, what would they do?"

This…

Joining the army paused, then said without hesitation. "If Commander Lu, he will definitely order the pursuit to the end!"

Follow up to the final chapter?

People say that the poor don't chase after it, but it seems unwise to chase it to the end.

Can…

Beat the dog in the water!

Chen Deng gritted his teeth, and said in a loud voice again: "Command the ministries, Commander Lu has only eight words left in the last of his tricks—chasing to the final chapter, not one! That's all the words, let the ministries figure it out!"

Speaking of this, the corners of Chen Deng's mouth twitched, and he suddenly discovered that Commander Lu's out-of-the-box "tip bag" is really easy to use, and the leeks are really easy to cut!
...

Dawn came, and the darkness finally passed.

big victory...

——Great Victory in Guangling City!

As for how big?

Naturally, someone began to count. The various legions of Cao Ying arranged for special scribes to count the heads. Whoever owns the head is whose head it is?Whose credit, no one can take away!
The scribe counted for half a day before he came to the conclusion that his calculation level was really not very good. After counting several times, the numbers didn't match up. The main reason was that the amount was too large, and the scribe was about to cry.

"The number of those who died from murder weapons was 320, but... more than 7000 people died from being trampled on each other and drowned. This... how do you write this battle report?"

From Guangling to the shore, there are just such a square inch of land, and the ground is full of corpses...

Even the river is dead...

Now they are neatly lined up together.

Some soldiers also searched for copper plates, jade pendants, etc. in the clothes of these corpses, and even...they also stripped off their thick cotton clothes. If the thick cotton clothes are stained with blood, they must not be worn again, but the cotton inside can still be removed. Come out and make several summer shirts, don't waste it...Xuzhou people are still very good at budgeting.

Chen Deng also stood here, looked at the clerk, listened to his embarrassment, and reminded with a smile: "Let's just write that the 1000 or [-] people were all wiped out by us. If we kill one, we can't look through the credit book." It's all our credit anyway, and no one else can take it away..."

Speaking of this, Chen Deng suddenly felt a little shameless.

It is true that the strategy was set by him, and the great victory was also facilitated by him, but it always feels...something is missing.

That's right...

Lack of Mr. Lu Yu's credit, what if he didn't have his name?If it weren't for his "creating something out of nothing" kit, how could this battle go so smoothly?
have gratitude…

Mr. Lu's credit has to be arranged.

"By the way, remember to write this sentence in the battle report - Lu Situ has a wonderful plan to secure the world, and he left behind a bag of tricks to destroy Jiangdong! Write it quickly, and report it to the imperial court immediately when it is finished!"
