Hengdao Sixteen Kingdoms

Chapter 109 Caution
On the surface of the not-so-wide Weishui River, more than a hundred rafts were rushing towards the south bank. Behind the rafts, there were still hundreds of wooden stakes floating, with five or six arms on each wooden stake.

Under Zhang Yu's order, the soldiers huddled in the camp, and the catapults and bows and arrows did not push forward immediately.

There are enemies in the north, west, and east, and it is no longer clear who is false and who is real.

Zhang Yu is cautious by nature, but if he is too cautious, he will worry about gains and losses and hesitate.

Xie Su cupped his hands and said: "There are enemies on three sides, I wish to lead the headquarters to defend the south, so as not to be blocked from the rear."

Zhang Yu sneered, "Could it be that your Excellency abandoned the camp?"

Knowing what was going on in his mind, Xie Su laughed dryly, "Why did your envoy say that?"

"My envoy, the right battalion has been ambushed by the enemy, and three thousand soldiers are fleeing!" The scout brought back the first bad news.

The Right Camp, like the Zuo Camp, is not an elite force.

It's not so easy to get elites. In the battle of Xuanyuan Mountain, Zhang Yu's elites were damaged a lot, and they haven't recovered yet, so they can only search for elites from Yuzhou to make up for them.

But 3000 people were defeated in less than an hour, which made people feel a little frightened.

The bad news is more than this one, the enemy's cavalry is killing the southeast civilian husband's camp.

The civilian husband camp hid in the valley behind, but still did not escape the scouts of the bandit army.

"Capture and kill Zhang Yu!" The enemy roared louder and louder.

"This battle has been delayed for too long, morale has been lost, and the bandit army is coming fiercely. In my opinion, it is better to avoid their edge for the time being." Xie Su said cautiously.

"My lord, report to the mansion in Yecheng!" The personal guard entered with a secret letter in his hand.

The Yuzhou Governor's Department has a mansion in Yecheng, which is responsible for conveying Jie Zhao's government orders and collecting news about Yecheng.

If the two armies are at war, if it is not a major event, the residence report or government order will be sent to Xuchang.

Zhang Yu spread out the mansion newspaper, and after reading the words on it, he looked shocked. Shi Tao was assassinated and died, Shi Xuan was tortured to death, Shi Hu was seriously ill...

This is clearly a harbinger of chaos in the world.

Zhang Yu was overjoyed that the chaos in the world was just an opportunity for someone like him.

Yuzhou does not necessarily have to march towards Xingyang. Half of this battle is for revenge, and the other half is for early deployment to cooperate with Jiangdong's recovery of Luoyang.

The greater good is at hand.

After fighting for so long, Zhang Yu didn't have the determination to fight to the death.

"Decree, after the left battalion is cut off, the other armies will return to Mi County!" Zhang Yu waved his hand.

Xie Su dropped the tail of the stag in his hand in shock, Zuo Ying is exactly the part of their Xie family, "Master!"

Zhang Yu squinted at him, "Your Excellency, you don't need to worry too much, the thief is just bluffing, and he definitely doesn't dare to attack by force. You only need to wait for two hours, and someone will respond."

Even if the enemy army is bluffing, seeing Zhang Yu's army retreating, they will inevitably launch a fierce attack.

Although Xie Su is a dude, he is not a fool, and Zhang Yu is pushing Xie's family into the pit of fire.

"Don't worry, Your Excellency, for the sake of the Xie family, I will never sit back and watch you be destroyed. This is a military order, and those who do not follow will be executed!" Zhang Yu said murderously.

The surrounding guards pressed the handle of the knife with their hands.

Now that the situation in the north will change, Zhang Yu's reliance on Jiangdong will be greatly reduced, and a nephew of Xie's family can't represent the whole Jiangdong. If he dies, he will die.

"Take, take orders!" Xie Su's eyes flashed resentment.

In fact, there is still time to retreat together at this time. There is no need to break the rear. It takes time for the enemy to cross the river. After defeating the 3000 troops in the right battalion, the enemy in the west did not take advantage of the victory to pursue it. The cavalry in the east is not targeting this side...

Zhang Yu laughed twice, and left with his personal guards contentedly.

More than two thousand soldiers gathered in the empty main camp, Xie Su's face was covered with cold sweat.

Until now, he suddenly remembered Zhang Yu's background, a refugee handsome, just like Su Jun and Zu Yue back then.

The entire Jiangdong has a bad impression of the Shuai Shuai.

They were born at the bottom, aggressive, capricious, and thieves.

The roar of the thief army is getting closer.

When it was really desperate, this group of Jiangdong soldiers were also forced out of blood. They were also refugees from the north and south, and they were placed in Huainan Qiao County. They did not lack the courage to fight bloody.

Not to mention they are well equipped.

"Kill the thief!" Dozens of people in the front line roared wildly.

There are many spears and crossbows are wound.

Pull Xie Su, who was in deep thought and regret, back to reality.

"The matter has come to this, the only thing left is a bloody battle, to be loyal to the imperial court!" Xie Wan drew out his gleaming sword.

Xie Su took a deep breath and walked into the formation, "All soldiers obey the order, put down their weapons, and surrender!"

The surrounding soldiers were all stunned, looking at Xie Su in disbelief.

"All the troops obey the order and surrender!" Xie Su was full of confidence.

There was a "bang bang", Xie Wanyi didn't react for a while, the sword in his hand fell to the ground, and when he was about to pick it up, there was already a "bang bang dang" sound around him.

The soldiers had already put down their weapons.

"Zimuan can bring down the thief?" Xie Wan was angry.

Xie Su looked at him coldly, picked up the long sword on the ground, and stuffed it back into his hand, "Uncle, if you wish to be loyal to the court, you can raise the sword forward!"

Xie Wan's hands trembled, and the long sword fell to the ground again.

Since the founding of the Western Jin Dynasty, there have been few nobles who died for the country...

Looking at the empty enemy camp, Li Yue thought it was an ambush set by Zhang Yu.

It wasn't until the more than 2000 soldiers in the battalion put down their weapons that they knew that Zhang Yu had really retreated.

In the whole battle, only Cui Jin defeated Zhang Yu's 3000 troops with a suspicious strategy, and then took down the Chinese army camp without bloodshed.

Although Zhang Yu retreated, his things did not run away, and the camp was piled up with food, grass and supplies.

There are also more than 2000 soldiers from the Xie family...

"Su has waited for the village master here for a long time." Xie Su cupped his hands very gracefully, "Zhang Yu retreated in a hurry, it is time to pursue, the village master must not let this beast go!"

Before Li Yue opened his mouth, Xie Su said a lot.

Judging from what he said, it seemed that the two had fallen out.

After thinking about it for a while, I knew the reason. After Zhang Yu told him to die, it was obvious that he wanted him to die.

However, Xie Su's direct surrender was a counter-command to his army.

Sure enough, infighting is their housekeeping skill.

"It is not too late. I will lead the army to pursue. If the enemy's formation is not disordered, attack and harass them. If they are defeated, we will capture and kill Zhang Yu in one fell swoop!" Cui Jin cupped his hands.

"Yes." Li Yue is not at ease if it is someone else, but if it is Cui Jin, there is absolutely no problem.

In this battle, he led a thousand Xuanyuan Mountain troops to defeat Zhang Yu's 3000 troops and showed his momentum.

Cui Jin turned around and left.

Li Yue's eyes fell on Xie Su, "Is the envoy safe?"

"The village master is indeed very human. If Zhang Yu can be captured and killed in this battle, Yuzhou will be the village master's possession. If I report back to the court, the position of governor of Yuzhou will be at my fingertips!"

Xie Su cooperated so much in not hitting the smiling face, but Li Yue didn't know how to deal with him.

It is definitely impossible to recruit, this person will never be used by Heiyun Mountain.

It is even more impossible to slash him with a knife, and he will face revenge from the Xie family. In this way, he will completely turn against Jiang Dong, not to mention that he surrendered voluntarily.

Li Yue smiled and said, "The governor of Yuzhou?"

Xie Su hit the snake with the stick, "Exactly, I will return to Jiankang and lobby the court. The village master is a loyal man, and he should be the governor of Yuzhou. No, Yuzhou Mu!"

"This meeting is quite difficult. I have not fulfilled my friendship with the landlord, why should the envoy be in a hurry?" Of course Li Yue would not just let him run away.

Xie Su rolled his eyes, "Thanks to the kindness of the village master, I am disrespectful."
