Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 918

Meng Huo swam across the river with three thousand personal guards. Although the river was not torrenting, it was not very calm either. Pass.

They had just crossed the river, and a part of the barbarian army stayed on the other side of the river, and the master of Mulu Cave led his troops to meet them.

Meng Huo crossed the river to participate in the battle. In order to prevent accidents, he also left a soldier on the west bank of the river, but the blockade force of the Mujun navy was too strong, and there was no chance to respond.

"Wang, you broke out, why are there only so few people?"

Cave Master Mulu came up, looked at the three thousand distressed guards behind Meng Huo, and gasped.

"go!"

Meng Huo took a deep breath, stared back at the opposite side of the river, and said coldly.

"What about our warriors, don't we care about them?"

asked the master of Mulu Cave.

"I will save them, now, leave immediately!" Meng Huo left without looking back, and left in a hurry, because he was afraid that Mujing would repent. Bureau.

The soldiers and horses behind quickly started to keep up, and then they disappeared into a forest.

On the river, on the deck of a two-toothed warship, Gan Ning held his hands behind his back. He was relieved to see them leave, and then he said: "Send out scouts to assist the soldiers of the Bird Battalion, hang them, Make sure they leave us a hundred miles away, and then let the scouts come back!"

"promise!"

A school lieutenant took the order.

……

Under the Tonggu Mountain.

"My lord, Meng Huo left. He didn't procrastinate, but he left very simply!" Chen Gong came to report.

"Ok!"

Mu Jing nodded: "This time he is a hero. If he is a son and daughter, he is a hero and short of breath, and he is not the barbarian king who can dominate the barbarians!"

"What should we do with these barbarians on the mountain?" Xi Zhicai asked.

"You ask me, who am I to ask!"

Facing the barbarian soldiers on the mountain, Mu Jing felt a little headache: "At this stage, although these captives are captives, they can't be killed or scolded for the time being. I really found tens of thousands of uncles to serve me!"

Even if Meng Huo took away [-] guards in the end, there would still be more than [-] remaining barbarians on Tonggu Mountain.

How to deal with them, Mu Jing really hasn't figured it out yet.

After all, he has not yet completely surrendered the barbarians, so these people are not only captives, but also a hidden danger. Once they fight with the barbarians, these people will even suddenly riot. The riot of tens of thousands of barbarians is enough to bring them danger.

"Now we can only confiscate their weapons and armor, and divide them into separate camps to guard them. As long as they are separated, the chances of them making trouble will be much less, and it will be convenient for us to guard them!" Xi Zhicai said: " But this will somewhat limit our strength!"

Since it is a prisoner, it is necessary to leave some soldiers and horses for supervision.

"Send the Dongzhou Army up!"

Mu Jing thought for a while and said, "Letting Zhang Renlai keep an eye on them is also one of our bargaining chips. For the time being, I don't want to deal with them yet. I have to keep them to check and balance Meng Huo. This barbarian king, he I still care about these barbarian warriors!"

"If he cared about the barbarian warriors, how could he escape alone!" Chen Gong sneered.

"On the contrary!"

Mu Jing said: "It is because he cares about this chance that he has gained this lifeline. If he dares to fight me desperately in this situation, it is what a common man says. He is acting on his own will. Such a barbarian king is not to be feared. On the contrary, he is the barbarian king of today. , is what makes people need to be afraid!"

"I will dispatch the Dongzhou Army up now!"

Xi Zhicai said.

"By the way, where is Zhang Liao's third army now?" Mu Jing asked suddenly.

"After they crossed Beishui, they didn't stop there, and they ignored Gao Min's barbarian army. They went all the way south. Now, they are about to enter Yongchang County!"

"Order, let him stop!" Mu Jing said: "Let him concentrate on dealing with the Yi army and Bai people in Yueyi. Don't enter Yongchang. Yongchang is a place where fish and dragons are mixed and the terrain is bad. Unless you defeat the barbarians, don't go in!"

"promise!"

Xi Zhicai immediately drafted a military order, and then sent someone to expedite it out by eight hundred miles.

"Now, we can concentrate on dealing with Yong Kai!" Mu Jing raised his head, his eyes flickered, and a murderous intent rose from the sky.

Compared to Meng Huo.

He preferred to behead Yong Kai.

Meng Huo can stay, because Meng Huo's influence is only among the barbarians, and he can stay if he can, but Yong Kai is different. Yong Kai must not stay. Such a person has too much influence in the Yizhou Army. Even if his military power is deprived and he is placed under house arrest, he can turn the clouds upside down.

If you don't kill him, it will be difficult to pacify Yizhou County.

However, the barbarian army on the mountain has not been dealt with yet, and they can't mobilize their troops at present, so even if they are in a hurry, they can only hold back and push down steadily step by step.

Now that Wei County's defense has been passed, the next step is to drive straight in...

…………

In the next two days, on the one hand, it was cleaning the battlefield, and on the other hand, it was dealing with tens of thousands of barbarian prisoners. Things went smoothly, because before Meng Huo left, he had asked these warriors to surrender. He didn't want unnecessary casualties. pay.

The leader of the barbarian captives was Meng Jie.

As Meng Huo's younger brother, Meng Jie was very important among the barbarians. Meng Huo kept Meng Jie in order to calm down the mood of the barbarian soldiers, and also expressed his determination to kill back no matter what.

Meng Jie was unwilling, but for the sake of the lives and deaths of tens of thousands of warriors, he followed his elder brother's instructions before he left, and cooperated with the Mu army, handing over his weapons, battle armor, horses, and all war preparations .

The Fifth Battalion of the Dongzhou Army pressed up and divided these warriors into five prisoner camps to take care of them. They established military positions around the prisoner camps. The fence was at least one person high.

At this moment, a piece of news from Dianchi, like a thunderbolt, exploded in Mu Jun's Central Command.

"what?"

Mu Jing's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it: "That guy Lei Hu and Sha Moke took down half of the city?"

At the beginning, he let Lei Hu and Sha Moke take the longest road, the most impossible mountain road, and approach the city of Dianchi City.

Now the plan is going well, but I didn't expect it to go too far.

Dianchi City is so majestic. It is the main city of Nanzhong, the largest and strongest city in the four counties of Nanzhong. With the main force of Leihu and Shamoke, it is impossible to break through.

But unexpectedly, they broke the city.

"Ok!"

Chen Gong was also a little surprised. He took a deep breath, calmed down, nodded and said: "The news from Jingwu Division, Jingwu Division Zuosi Tong Zhi Yue Shu was secretly acting in the city. First, he persuaded the five major families in the city to surrender and opened the city. Open the door, welcome Leihu Shamoke to enter the city, and seize the city overnight!"

"That's the end of the story. Jing Wusi's hard work these years has not been in vain. Now that he has captured the city, why do you say he only occupied half of the city?"

Mu Jing narrowed his eyes.

Yue Shu is capable, he knows it, otherwise he would not have kept them in the first place, he was Dong Fu who was beside Liu Yan, a pawn in Hanzhong, but this pawn was used by Mu Jing in the end .

"Because their foundation is so solid, even though Yue Shu persuaded the five powerful families in Dianchi City to join us, the wealthy families in Yizhou still came back. With the help of the soldiers from the clan, Yongtong, the captain of Yizhou County, gathered [-] troops at once, and forcibly blocked the attack of Shamoke for a day and a night, and persisted until Yongkai led the army back!"

Chen Gong said: "Yong Kai drove straight in and took back half of the city, but the southern city of Dianchi Lake was still occupied by Leihu and Shamoke, but I don't know how long it will last!"

"Go south, go south immediately!"

Mu Jing stood up, and said without hesitation: "Pass my military order, order, Jingping's navy, gather within an hour, immediately go south along the water, and send a battalion as the vanguard. Enter Dianchi Lake within the time limit!"

He was unwilling to carry out a battle to storm Dianchi City.

Dianchi City is the main city, with high walls and thick walls. Siege is always uncomfortable for Mu Jing. Even if he wins, he will have to pay a certain price in the end. The loss was more than [-].

There's a great opportunity here right now.

As long as Leihu and Shamoke can persist until the main force of the shepherd army goes south, they don't need to attack the city at all, and they will directly tear the defense line of Dianchi City.

Either way, it's better than storming the main city.

"promise!"

Chen Gong nodded and took the order to leave.

"Zhicai!"

"Beat the drums and gather the generals, leave the Dongzhou Army to take care of the prisoners, and then the whole army will rush forward and speed up the pace of going south!" Mu Jing's heart was full of enthusiasm, and he thought it would take a full year, but now it seems In August, he will be able to break the Dianchi Lake, so he can't let go of this opportunity. If he can end the battle of Nanzhong before the cold winter, it will definitely save a lot of strength for the Mu army.

"promise!"

Xi Zhi nodded.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………

Dianchi City is in a state of flux.

There are three main streets in the city that can run through the whole city, one horizontal and two vertical.

Hengjie is Dianyun Avenue.

With the Dianyun Avenue as the boundary, the southern city has been controlled by the whole line of the Mu army, while the northern city, with the entry of Yong Kai's main force, has stabilized all of a sudden. As the two armies confront each other, the city is in chaos.

During the war, countless fish ponds were affected.

From the day when the city was broken to now, there are countless families in the city who have been destroyed.

A house became the headquarters of the Shepherd Army.

In the headquarters, Lei Hugao sat at the top, Sha Moke sat on the side, Hou Lie, the lieutenant of each department, sat the most, and several patriarchs who had already returned to the herd army also sat on the side, listening quietly. war council.

"This is the end of the matter, it's just a battle!"

Lei Hu's voice is very loud, and his voice is strong and powerful. At this time, it is especially easy to stabilize the morale of the army. He is not worried about his own people. The Zhanhu Camp is the main combat camp. The high-level trainees are naturally stable at this time, and Samoke's Wuxi barbarian army, although not as firm as the Mu army, will not seek refuge in Yizhou County, because they are not here at all.

He said that, if he wanted to be stable, he was only the patriarch of the several wealthy families in Dianchi City who took refuge in the Mujun army and led troops into the city.

They were able to enter the city so smoothly with the support of the fifth, Yu family, Liu family, Qiu family, and Gu Liang family, the five powerful families. As the saying goes, water can carry a boat and capsize it. In this Dianchi city, No matter how strong Zhanhuying and Wuxi Barbarian Army are, it would be useless without support.

"I know that this battle has not been successful, and it has failed your expectations. You may even be a little disappointed in my Minghou Mansion, but I hope you can hold on!" Lei Hu is not a lobbyist who is good at lobbying, but this Sometimes, only his words can stabilize people. Even Yue Shu's words are not enough for him, so he can only bite the bullet and say kindly: "What I can tell you is that as long as you can support our army to last five Time, I promise, you will never regret your choice!"

On the fifth day, several people peeped at each other.

Originally they chose to take refuge in the Minghou Mansion, even though it was a bit risky, but now the Mujun can't take Dianchi City as quickly as they wished, which has shaken their confidence in the Mujun.

The key is that Yong Kai is back.

Their fear of Yong Kai was so strong that they were even a little overwhelmed.

As for whether they regret supporting Mu Jun in their hearts, they don't know, but at this moment, they dare not show regretful expressions, because sitting in front of them is also a group of killing gods, and they can only remain expressionless.

"Do you know why Yong Kai led his army back?" Yue Shu asked suddenly as he was sitting at the table as Jing Wusi.

"why?"

Fifth Yue raised his head, glanced at Yue Shu, and asked.

Among the five great families, the fifth family actually had the least choice, because they opened the city gate, and now they can only advance and retreat with the Mu army. If the Mu army loses, the first person to be liquidated is him.

"Because they lost the battle!"

Yue Shu said calmly: "The main force of our army has crossed Wei County's defense line. Yong Kai did not come back victorious as he said suddenly, but fled back!"

Yong Kai led the army back suddenly, in the name of returning victoriously, to boost the morale of the army, otherwise, the Mu army had already captured the city, how could he take back half of the city at once.

His appeal in Dianchi City is still very strong.

The reason why the shepherd army retreated to Beicheng this time.

"Escaped?"

The news was too confusing, and the several patriarchs didn't know whether to believe Yong Kai or Mu Jun. They didn't know how the battle in Wei County was going, so they didn't dare to speak up for a while, for fear that they would not be able to get out if they stepped in. up.

"Regardless of others, my fifth family, I will not regret the choice!" Fifth Yue was the first to declare: "I have integrated the family's government soldiers and assembled with the county soldiers. There are two thousand soldiers, led by Fifth Deng himself. Let me send you around!"

The fifth family, desperate!
The rest of the patriarchs thought about it carefully, and felt that they had no way out, because they all knew Yong Kai's temperament, if the Mu army was defeated, the first thing to do was to kill them.

"The Fifth Patriarch is right, don't regret your choice, only advance and retreat together!"

"As of now, I only hope that Master Minghou will not let us down!"

The remaining Patriarchs expressed their opinions one after another. No matter what they chose in their hearts, at this time, they still expressed their support for Mu Jun.

Lei Hu breathed a sigh of relief.

If they turned against the water at this time, then this half of the city would really be lost.

As long as they dare to support, then this battle, Lei Hu believes, can still be fought. He believes in Mu Jing, if he persists for five days, the strength of the Mu army will definitely arrive.
