Chapter 120 Jiangdong Reinforcement Army

The flames jumping in the public security city in the distance fell on Lu Meng's eyes like sharp knives, stabbing through his psychological defense step by step.

Lu Meng, who was already suffering from illness, could only press his hands tightly on the railing in front of him.

Only in this way can he have the strength to keep his body from falling down.

No matter how remorseful and painful in his heart, Lu Meng knew that as the general of the [-] army, he would not show the slightest abnormality at this time.

Otherwise, it will cause chaos in the army.

But Lu Meng pretended to be calm, but compared with the panicked crowd, his performance seemed so out of place.

Many Jiangdong generals who had originally recruited their troops from the battalion immediately panicked when they saw the flames soaring into the sky several miles away.

All of them were experienced people. Seeing the scene, they guessed that Huang Gai and Jiang Qin's troops were in ambush.

After realizing this, the Jiangdong generals rushed to the high platform one after another. They came behind Lu Meng and asked Lu Meng what to do next.

Huang Gai and Jiang Qin had a total of [-] soldiers and horses. Compared with the [-] troops, these [-] soldiers and horses did not seem like a lot.

But these six thousand soldiers and horses are the elite of Jiangdong's army!

Moreover, Huang Gai, as a veteran of the three dynasties, has a valuable status. In the past, he used his fame to promote many rookies in the army, which made many Jiangdong generals respect him very much in their hearts.

Needless to say, Jiang Qin is one of the few Huaisi generals who have achieved great success.

His existence not only protects countless courtiers with Huaisi background, but also serves as a pinnacle of stability in Jiangdong's army.

The [-]-strong army was wiped out, and this result is no longer acceptable to the generals.

If Huang Gai and Jiang Qin were involved in this ambush, the results of the battle tonight would definitely cause a major earthquake in Jiangdong.

Both results were unacceptable to the crowd, so they begged Lu Meng to send reinforcements quickly to meet the return of the two generals Huang Gai and Jiang Qin.

From the moment the flames rose in the Public Security City, everyone knew in their hearts that their battle to sneak into the city tonight had been declared a failure.

But even if the battle is defeated, even if the six thousand soldiers have suffered heavy losses, Huang Gai and Jiang Qin must be rescued.

The Jiangdong generals used to have discord, but now they are surprisingly united.

Because if they don't save Huang Gai and Jiang Qin tonight, how can they let them rest assured to hand over their backs to other comrades in the future?

The crowd was so angry that they asked to lead troops to rescue the two generals Huang Gai and Jiang Qin.

At this time, everyone saw that Lu Meng still had a "calm and composed" look on his face, and some people couldn't help but blame Lu Meng in their hearts.

Among them, Han Dang had the strongest dissatisfaction on his face.

Ever since Sun Jiao was captured and Huang Gai was trapped in Gong'an City, Han Dang is the only one in Jiangdong's army who can compare with Lu Meng in terms of prestige.

Han Dang and Huang Gai have known each other for more than [-] years, and decades of comradeship have made them as close as brothers to each other.

Now that he saw Lu Meng acting like a mother-in-law to the reinforcements, how could this not make him feel angry.

Han Dang even thought, if Lu Meng hadn't insisted on going his own way tonight, how could they have suffered such a big defeat?
Han Dang stepped forward from among the generals and came to Lu Meng. He said to Lu Meng:
"The two generals Huang and Jiang were ordered by the governor, and now they are trapped by the police.

If the governor does not send troops to rescue, how can the generals feel at ease? "

Although Han Dang didn't say anything serious, it was enough to see from his tone that he was quite dissatisfied.

And with Han Dang, a veteran of the three dynasties, taking the lead, everyone's request to send troops to rescue reached its peak all of a sudden.

Lu Meng looked at the Jiangdong generals in front of him who looked flustered but firmly expressed their support. Even if he didn't want to send reinforcements in his heart, he couldn't help but not.

Even Han Dang, who was the most supportive of him in the past, began to be dissatisfied with him, let alone others?

Although he knew that Mi Yang had a way to prevent himself from sending reinforcements, but it was difficult to disobey all sentiments.

If he didn't send reinforcements tonight, not to mention Sun Quan will be responsible for the loss of Huang Gai and Jiang Qin in the future, it will all be blamed on him.

I'm afraid that after tonight, it will be difficult for him to have the prestige to command any soldier or general in the army.

Thinking of the stakes, Lu Meng could only give the order to send reinforcements in the end.

Lu Meng ordered a tiger general with a scar on his face, "You Ping, you immediately lead your troops and go to the west gate to rescue Generals Huang and Jiang."

This general with a scar on his face is Zhou Tai, a Huaisi general whom Sun Quan values ​​very much today.

And the scar on Zhou Tai's face was left to save Sun Quan.

Not only did Zhou Tai have a close relationship with Sun Quan, he and Jiang Qin even came from the same county, and the relationship between the two has always been very good.

After receiving Lu Meng's order, Zhou Tai did not hesitate at all.

After clasping his fists at Lu Meng, he immediately ran down.

The reason why Lu Meng asked Zhou Tai to lead his troops to rescue was because he valued Zhou Tai's force.

With the enemy blocking the city gates, only the brave can fight a way out for their side.

Moreover, Zhou Tai's water quality is also among the best among Jiangdong generals, and all his soldiers are also good at water.

With the suspension bridge already destroyed, only those who are good at water can have some possibility to forcibly cross the wide and cold moat.

After appointing Zhou Tai as reinforcements, Lu Meng issued another order.

"Order, the three large camps in the east, south, and north will immediately summon soldiers and horses to launch a fierce attack on the Public Security City."

After hearing Lu Meng's order, all Jiangdong generals present hesitated for a while.

Why send troops to attack the city instead of rescuing Huang Gai and Jiang Qin?
Seeing that he was unable to follow his words and deeds, Lu Meng couldn't help feeling a little anxious, and he said sharply to the people present,
"Mi Yang set up an ambush in the west of the city, and will definitely mobilize most of the troops in the city."

"So the rest of the cities will be empty of troops."

"As long as he receives news that the other three city walls have been attacked, he may deploy troops from the west of the city to support the cities."

"Only in this way can we have a greater chance of rescuing Generals Huang and Jiang!"

After Lu Meng explained, everyone suddenly realized.

This is the only way out now.

After knowing what Lu Meng meant, all the generals left one after another to dispatch troops.

After the generals left, the impatient Zhou Tai had already led his troops to support him.

Lu Meng looked at Zhou Tai's leaving figure from the high platform, but he didn't really have much hope in his heart.

Because as far as he could see, the thousands of barbarians had rushed to the west gate and began to harvest wantonly, killing the thousands of Jiangdong soldiers outside the city gate.

But not being able to save them is a matter of ability, and not being able to save them is a matter of attitude.
