Martial Arts: Start with 100,000 Xiliang Cavalry

Chapter 257
Jiaozhou.

Here is located at the southern end, with rainforest and miasma.The border is bounded by the Changhong River, and the south of the river is the territory of the Nanyue Kingdom.

Since the collapse of the Southern Zhou Dynasty, Yuanzhou Mu had already led a group of elites across the river to seek refuge in the small country of Nanyue in Jiaozhou, a remote area.

It is absolutely unacceptable to let them become enemies with the Bei'an Army.However, relying on his status as a state shepherd and the power he has accumulated over the years, it is not at all a problem to win a piece of territory in the small country of South Vietnam, not to mention being the king and hegemony.

As for the rest of Jiaozhou, which was mostly plundered, it was thrown to some generals who did not leave with them.The state herdsmen are abroad, conducting remote control, and sending people back and forth by paddle boat at all times to understand the situation.

Because of the cooperation with Nanyue, many soldiers from several countries represented by Nanyue entered Jiaozhou.Zhou Mu said that he gave them the land in exchange for benefits.

In fact, Zhou Mu has long known in his heart that sooner or later this territory will belong to the Bei'an Army, and now he can make some money by selling it to the small country of South Vietnam.

Therefore, several small countries in South Vietnam are so dissatisfied with Su Yuan's strong unification.

They have never fought against the Bei'an Army, and they don't know the strength of the Bei'an Army. This is why they dare to defend instead of withdrawing their soldiers to their own country.

Zhao Yun and Qi Jiguang didn't care about this.

After they led their troops to arrive, the first thing they faced was the complex terrain.

Because of the rainforest area, traps and tunnels are arranged in many places.

Some South Vietnamese natives were lurking in the tunnels, ready to attack the Bei'an army passing by at any time.

However, these natives waited and waited, but they didn't wait for the Bei'an army to come.

The latter never thought of taking any chances.

After Zhao Yun and Qi Jiguang inspected the terrain, they already guessed that there must be traps all over the rainforest.For this reason, they simply did not use manpower, but used cannons to open the way.

After the surrender of the states, the Bei'an Army was able to transport artillery shells to the front line smoothly, and they didn't need to save at all.

Dozens of cannons bombarded the rainforest.

The native soldiers who were ambushing in the tunnel were almost completely stunned.

The tunnel is not an air-raid shelter, and it cannot withstand such a carpet-like bombing.Those traps are even more ineffective once they are shaken by the explosion.

The Bei'an army did not spend a single soldier, and only used a dozen rounds of artillery to wash the land, and they almost eliminated the threat in some areas of the rainforest.

Then the army entered the rainforest, passed through a patch of potholes, and came to the city area of ​​Jiaozhou.

The battle in the rainforest didn't work, and Jiaozhou guards and South Vietnamese soldiers already felt fear.

They are afraid of the dozens of cannons in the hands of the Bei'an Army. They are too powerful. How can they deal with them?The rattan armor woven with rattan can block bows and arrows, but can it also block shells?

When the technological level and soldiers' combat literacy were completely crushed, even if the South Vietnamese soldiers had never fought against the Bei'an Army, they felt fear from the bottom of their hearts.

Some South Vietnamese soldiers in the frontline city even showed fear of fighting the moment they found the Bei'an Army approaching.

A local general in Jiaozhou found that he could not command the South Vietnamese soldiers to fight, so he was so angry that he cursed in the barracks.

"You useless bastards! Barbarians! You won't be useful at all when things come to an end!"

It doesn't matter if he scolds like this, but it brings himself a fatal disaster.

A short South Vietnamese soldier silently held a bone fragment between his fingers, and when he pretended to pass by the general inadvertently, he suddenly raised his hand and cut the general's throat with the bone fragment.

The moment the blood spurted out, everyone was stunned.

"Kill 'em! Loot! Go home!"

The short South Vietnamese soldier yelled, and the other South Vietnamese soldiers shouted in response, taking out their weapons and attacking the local soldiers.

The local soldiers in Jiaozhou were caught off guard. They did not expect that they were allies a few seconds ago, and became enemies a few seconds later.Many people were cut down to the ground immediately, and those who were left to react also took out their weapons to resist, but they were already at a disadvantage.

In a short time, thousands of local soldiers were killed by less than [-] South Vietnamese soldiers.They robbed everything of value in the barracks, from silver coins to seals, official uniforms, and weapons.

After robbing these, they planned to go to the homes of the people in the city to plunder again, but before they had time to act, the city was already destroyed.

The defenders fought among themselves, and Zhao Yun and Qi Jiguang easily led their troops to break through the city and quickly seized all the streets.

More than 200 South Vietnamese soldiers had nowhere to run, thinking of fighting to the death with the Bei'an Army, but as soon as they ran from the barracks to the long street, they were randomly shot to death by the Bei'an Army soldiers, leaving no one behind.

Qi Jiguang asked the soldiers to search the corpses of these South Vietnamese soldiers, and found a letter on the body of one of the leaders.

The content is to let them play by ear. If they find that they are not the opponents of the Bei'an Army, they should grab as many things as possible from Jiaozhou and return to South Vietnam.

"General Zhao, it seems that other cities in Jiaozhou will inevitably be looted."

Qi Jiguang told Zhao Yun the content of the letter, and the latter nodded in agreement.

"I'm afraid that's the case. But if we just take back an empty Jiaozhou, I really don't have the face to meet the lord."

"Exactly." Qi Jiguang said.

Although Su Yuan didn't say that he would guarantee Jiaozhou's resources, he only let them occupy this place.But they definitely wouldn't want to give Su Yuan such an answer sheet.

As soon as the two had a discussion, they decided to speed up the march, trying to stop some people before the South Vietnamese soldiers ran back after finishing the robbing.

On the other hand, the two also jointly wrote a letter for Jin Yiwei to deliver to Su Yuan.

The content of the letter is to make an application, that is, to take back the things belonging to Jiaozhou from the South Vietnamese countries.I am afraid that it is inevitable to set foot on the territory of South Vietnam. This kind of transnational combat operation still needs to apply for the permission of the Soviet Union.

……

The head of Shenshui City.

Mei Jian cut off Tang Cheng's head cleanly, which shocked many people.

But she did so, but it also aroused the hostility of many Tangmen disciples.

Seeing that the atmosphere was tense, Tang Ziyu told everyone that they could be a witness.

"I know you may not trust me, but I will confront Tang Lin face to face, and then you will know who the traitor is."

Naturally, Tang Ziyu was not afraid of confrontation, as soon as they met, Tang Lin's activities would be exposed without a doubt.

All the disciples looked at each other when they heard the words, and one of them said: "Miss, we naturally trust you more...but... Castle Master Tang is the Lord of Castle after all..."

The other disciples also showed hesitation when they heard the words.

Most of the disciples stationed in Shenshui City are inner disciples.

The inner sect is different from the outer sect. The reason why the disciples of the outer sect unconditionally support Tang Ziyu is because they themselves do not have any resources from the Tang sect.

Inner sect disciples are different, they have their share in any good deeds.

Among other things, since Tang Lin became the castle master, their benefits have increased a lot.

This is also related to Tang Lin's closure of Shuzhou.

Foreign people from the Jianghu are not allowed to come in, which makes Tangmen disciples the only warriors in Shuzhou.All kinds of industries that require warriors, such as bodyguards, nursing homes, etc., are monopolized by Tangmen disciples.

Even if Tang Lin divided the huge amount of money he earned, every inner disciple could eat a big bite.

In this way, these people become a community of interests.

Now Tang Ziyu suddenly appeared and came back, saying that Tang Lin was a traitor and wanted to drag him down from the position of Castle Lord.He also brought a few warriors from outside the Tang Sect... This would naturally make them, the inner disciples, resist.

Tang Ziyu couldn't help feeling cold when he saw everyone's attitude.

She originally thought that the outer disciples supported her so much, and the inner disciples should be even more supportive.Unexpectedly, the attitude towards her from the inner sect was worse than that from the outer sect.

Not only her, Su Yuan didn't expect this to happen.

But after careful consideration, he also understood the reason.

He said to Tang Ziyu: "Miss Tang, don't talk nonsense with these people. I see that many of them have taken Tang Lin's money, and they have already ignored right and wrong. Let's go directly to Tangjiabao."

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

"Who are you?! How dare you speak nonsense here!"

The disciples of the Tang Sect did not dare to be presumptuous towards Tang Ziyu, but they were extremely annoyed that a stranger, Su Yuan, despised them so much.

Mei Lan Zhu Ju Si Jian saw that these people were disrespectful to Su Yuan in words, and all of them immediately turned frosty.

The four asked Su Yuan almost in unison: "Master, do you want us to kill them all!"

They are not joking, the four of them teamed up, even the master is no match, let alone these acquired talents.

Li Yuanba couldn't help but swung his hammer: "Damn it, look for it!"

Seeing that things were about to get out of hand, Tang Ziyu stepped in front of Su Yuan with pleading eyes.

"Don't do it yet...is that okay?"

"Can't you see it yet?" Su Yuandao said, "It's not that I want to do it, but they want to force us to do it. Then they can fight back naturally."

"..."

How could Tang Ziyu not know?She had already noticed that several Tangmen disciples were leaning on the concealed weapon pouch, no doubt they wanted to wait for Su Yuan and others to attack before attacking.

After Su Yuan finished speaking, he passed Tang Ziyu and walked in front of everyone.

"Miss Tang is thinking about friendship, and doesn't want to hurt you. You are greedy for profit, and you are wolf-hearted... How about this, those who are on Miss Tang's side, step aside. I will only give you ten breaths to make a choice."

He has shown the greatest degree of benevolence, everyone heard the words, some ridiculed and sneered, and some hesitated.

After ten breaths, less than 20 people chose to stand on Tang Ziyu's side.

The remaining 70 people were unmoved.

Tang Ziyu bit her lip, turned around, and turned her back to everyone.

Su Yuan glanced at the plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, and the four of them nodded slightly and rushed out.

Almost at the same time, Li Yuanba also waved his hammer and ran forward.

"court death!"

"Kill them!"

The sound of shouting and killing, and the sound of hidden weapons piercing through the air resounded intensively.

But these voices instantly turned into screams, cries, and begging for mercy.

"what!!!!!"

"I admit defeat! I admit defeat! Ah!"

"Let me go!"

"Miss! Help!!"

All these innate innate qualities were not enough for Li Yuanba and Mei Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum to fight. The battle came to an end almost as soon as it started.

Tang Ziyu couldn't bear to look at it, and kept turning her back.

Su Yuan walked up to her and patted her on the shoulder lightly: "People are like this, don't be too sad."

"..."

Tang Ziyu felt uncomfortable and leaned gently on Su Yuan's shoulder.But she was strong enough, she just indulged her painful emotions for a few seconds, then straightened her back and turned around.

There were corpses all over the gate of the city, and Su Yuan's subordinates were unharmed.

As for the dozen or so Tangmen disciples who chose to stand by Tang Ziyu's side, their faces were all pale as paper.

They could clearly feel their whole body trembling...

Are you kidding me?What is the origin of these people...

Strong fear filled their hearts, and they couldn't help thinking that if they had chosen to follow the crowd and not go aside, there would definitely be one more of them in the pile of corpses now.

"You have made the right choice." Tang Ziyu walked up to a dozen people and looked at them seriously, "Next, follow me to Tangjiabao, expose Tang Lin's true colors, and take back the Tang Sect!"

"Yes! Missy!!!"

The dozen or so people dared to say anything, they all puffed out their chests and roared with the loudest voice.

Tang Ziyu nodded and stepped into Shenshui City.

Su Yuan and others followed, and the group quickly "sorted" all the disciples in the city into different categories.After the previous incident, Tang Ziyu has figured it out.She was no longer merciful, and personally wiped out all those who were loyal to Tang Lin, and those who were willing to remain neutral or support her would be spared.

Two hours later, the seven of them left Shenshui City and headed for Tangjiabao with nearly a hundred disciples of the Tang Sect.

At this moment, Tangjiabao Hall.

Tang Lin has received reports from his subordinates that Tang Ziyu is back.

And not one person, but seven people.

"Where did she get the confidence? Seven people want to overthrow me and take Tang Sect back?"

"Castle Master." His confidant guessed, "Those seven people should be masters of Bei'an Army or Jiangbei Wulin. We still have to be careful."

"Well. Don't mention those masters, that dead girl still holds a peacock feather in her hand, which is a big enough threat."

"Castle Master, do you want to send some disciples to Shenshui City to intercept people?"

"No!" Tang Lin sneered, "Let them come to Tangjiabao! Don't forget, I have already changed all the organs here!"

"What the castle master said is absolutely true!"

After Tang Lin came to power, he had long been prepared for the fact that Tang Ziyu would come back for revenge one day.

He replaced all the secret cards of the organs in Tangjiabao, and only let a few confidants know the details.In this way, even if Tang Ziyu grew up in the castle, every step of her return would only be frightening and dangerous.

As long as you are not careful, you will die under the authority.

Tang Lin thought for a moment, and then told his confidants: "Now I'm not worried about those dead girls. What I worry about is that the disciples in the castle will hear the news and shake their loyalty to me. You make arrangements immediately to seal the Tangjiabao. No one can come in or out. No news about Tang Ziyu is allowed to spread."

"Yes." The confidant agreed to leave.

Standing alone in the hall, Tang Lin thought to himself: "If the Bei'an army arrives, I might prepare to escape. But Tang Ziyu, a dead girl who dares to come, is courting death!"

"After I killed her, I took Peacock Ling away. After collecting money, I took a group of confidants overseas to hide my name... Even if Su Yuan wants to find me, he will only find nothing!"
