Three Kingdoms: Prosper Han from the beginning of brushing favorability

Chapter 92 The East Wind Has Come
"Prince, since you want to take Zhijiang, why don't you come here directly, instead you have to take a detour and stay on the road for a long time?" Liu Feng asked puzzled.

There wasn't much rations in the army, but it was wasting a lot in vain, and he was a little worried about it.

Liu Chan chuckled and said, "Let Lu Xun fly for a while."

Liu Feng: "?"

Why is Lu Xun still flying?

"If our army follows up and takes Zhijiang, it will inevitably encounter the main force that comes back. Lu Xun's army has at least 2 people, many of whom are elite. Even if our army wins by chance, it will be a miserable victory. What about taking Sun Quan's main force afterwards? "

Liu Feng nodded to express his understanding, but he still didn't seem to understand why he had to go around this circle.

Guan Yu knew it already, and said with a smile: "Adou, this is a plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain. While Lu Xun's army is going to intercept the upper reaches of Mian River, our army will instead take Zhijiang and Yidu.

"Afterwards, the army stationed in Yiling can protect the west line of the Yangtze River! Although Lu Xun has the advantage of being the first mover, he has made useless efforts."

Liu Chan smiled and said nothing, what the second uncle said was also a solution, but he greatly underestimated his own appetite.

The army marched to the bank of the Zhangshui River with no flags and drums, felled trees to make floating wooden sampans, and erected rhubarb crossbows on the bank to prevent the Zhijiang defenders from attacking halfway across the river.

It's a pity that the Dongwu Zhijiang garrison did not expect that the Jingzhou army would come back here. They only garrisoned the county every day and did not send anyone to patrol the Zhangshui River.

"The whole army, forcefully cross the Zhang River!"

In the afternoon, following Liu Chan's order, the army and horses crossed the Zhang River one after another.

The first batch to reach the other side were all Liu Chan's prince's relatives. As soon as they landed, they immediately sent out their hands to guard, and the rest of them received the first batch of equipment and luggage on the shore.

After dragging it ashore, he immediately put on his armor and held a sharp guard, waiting in full battle to cover the rear army and cross the river.

The follow-up troops all crossed the river in the same way, and when the whole army successfully crossed the river, the last ray of sunshine had gone west.

The army adjusted its formation slightly, then lit the torches, and immediately rushed to Zhijiang County...

The guard general of Eastern Wu in Zhijiang County is called Chen Gang, who is nearly half a century old, and now he is only a general of Yamen.

As far as this is the result of years of experience, he has no dazzling record at all, and he doesn't talk much at ordinary times, and his sense of presence is extremely low.

Of course, he also has advantages, that is, he is obedient and does what he is asked to do without any compromise.

For example, Chen Gang did a good job of committing no crime against the common people. A soldier "borrowed" a scythe from the common people's house, and he chopped off his head as soon as he found it.

It's a pity that there is Zhang Zaigong's matter in the front, no matter how he behaves, the people of Zhijiang are extremely indifferent.

Chen Gang felt that he had landed a good job. Although he could not scrape the oil and water of this place, it was still very safe. As long as he could guarantee that this place would not be lost, he would have a share of the credit after the war.

Maybe I will use this to move my butt, maybe...

Today was another uneventful day.

With longing for a better future, Chen Gang is about to fall asleep.

Bang!
The door was slammed open by the guards, and Chen Gang's sleepiness was immediately startled.

"What's wrong?!"

"General! Guan Yu's army has returned and has surrounded us and is attacking the east, south and north gates!"

"...Huh?" Chen Gang was dumbfounded.

Isn't the main force of my army going to intercept Guan Yu?
Why did Guan Yu's army appear here? !
"General!" Before he could figure it out, another soldier rushed in, "The people in the city rioted when they learned that Guan Yu was not dead, and stormed the city gate from within! The country gentry also rushed to the county government with their private soldiers !"

The clanging of gold and iron outside the mansion was already clearly audible.

"Quick! I'll be wearing armor. Where's my sword? Where's my sword?!"

"Ah!" A soldier who was stabbed in the chest and abdomen flew in backwards, lay on the ground and twitched a few times before not moving.

The excited country gentry brought their private soldiers to the county government. Since the main force was stationed to guard the four gates of the county, the county government was relatively empty.

And Chen Gang, who strictly obeyed the order and was kind to the people, did not imprison the small officials and servants in the county government.

At this time, they all turned against each other, and the county government was quickly breached under the cooperation of the inside and the outside.

"Tie him to see General Guan."

"It's better to hack to death with knives!"

"Perhaps he is still useful to General Guan, so let's tie him up."

"Yes, tied and tied."

Chen Gang, a veteran who hadn't had time to put on his armor, was kicked to the ground. He was stripped of his half-wearing leather armor and even the clothes inside. In the cold weather, only a single jacket was left for him. Chen Gang shivered in the cold.

As the Jingzhou army stormed the three gates and learned that Guan Yu was not dead, the common people fought openly, took up short knives and agricultural tools, and, with guilt and anger for Zhang Wenxuan's death, rushed to the Soochow defenders at the city gate from the inside.

This time, they saw hope of victory.

The fire that Zhang Wenxuan had planted in their hearts with his heroic death, finally met the east wind at this moment, and began to burn violently, out of control...

The three city gates were breached quickly one after another, and the defenders in the city fled from the west gate in a hurry, and were covered up by Liu Chan's ambushes all the way, causing heavy casualties.

In this battle, more than [-] enemies were wiped out, and more than [-] were surrendered.

It wasn't that the Wu soldiers were fighting to the death, but that the angry county residents didn't even give them a chance to surrender...

Liu Chan, Liu Feng, and Guan Yu reunited in the county, and the high-level officials temporarily stationed in the county government. Except for controlling important places and city gates, the rest of the army rested in place and did not disturb the people.

"Your Majesty!"

In the county mansion, an angry young man kicked the heavily bound Chen Gang to the ground.

Under the light of the fire, his face was blue and purple. It was obvious that he had been received very kindly before he came.

Chen Gang, who had long been dominated by fear, did not resist. Instead, he kowtowed and cried, "The last general just followed orders and did not harm the people. Prince, please forgive me, General Guan!"

Liu Chan and Guan Yu, who were sitting at the same table, looked at each other. Liu Chan was the first to ask, "Where is Lu Xun's army?"

Chen Gang scolded the street in his heart at that time, this is the question he asked the sky countless times in his heart tonight.

"Go...to intercept General Guan."

Chen Gang's tears were about to come down, what did they cut off?

"Where to intercept?"

"Uh……"

At this time, Guan Yu, who had been squinting his eyes to listen to Liu Chan's question, suddenly opened his eyes: "Huh?"

The strong coercion scared the unprogressive veteran into the urine in an instant.

"Jingcheng, they are going to Jingcheng!"

[Guan Yu Favorability +5]

Guan Yu's eyes lit up immediately: "Adou, Lu Xun's whereabouts are in your hands. My second uncle admired you several times, but I didn't expect you to underestimate you."

Liu Feng also praised: "The crown prince is lucky, Feng Zi is ashamed."

The other generals also praised a lot, but Liu Chan did not get lost in the praises.

Knowing Lu Xun's route in advance and knowing the results of the battles in each city, he can naturally calculate his approximate location and the shortest interception route.

But in the eyes of others, it is amazing. After all, Mianshui is not the only place suitable for interception in Jingcheng.

Chen Gang asked tremblingly at this time: "Prince, General Guan, the last general has reported the truth, is it..."

Liu Chan smiled slightly and said, "I won't kill you alone."

Chen Gang was overjoyed. Just as he was about to kowtow, the young man who had been standing behind him with a knife was about to speak, but Liu Chan continued: "Drag him out and hand him over to the county people here."

Strictly speaking, the joy on Chen Gang's face didn't disappear, it just shifted to the face of the young man with the knife.

"Thank you prince!"

"No! No way...!"

Chen Gang was dragged out by the youth, tied to a tree, and shot into a hedgehog at close range by the people with the bows and arrows of the Jingzhou Army...

Rationally speaking, Chen Gang is also very wronged, he did not give the order to release the arrow, and he did not harm the people here.

It's a pity that the people of Zhijiang at this time don't have so much reason to give him. He is a general of the Eastern Wu, and that's enough.

After the great victory and killing the thieves, the people saw Liu Chan, Guan Yu and others walking out of the county mansion, and they bowed down one after another.

"General Guan, you are finally here, Zhang Zaigong died so badly... woo woo."

For a while there were endless cries in the county seat. Guan Yu was ashamed when he saw it, and he cupped his fists and said, "It's Guan's mistake, which gave the Jiangdong rats an opportunity to take advantage of it, resulting in the tragic death of County Magistrate Zhang. All the folks and elders... suffer!"

After finishing speaking, he made a deep salute with Liu Chan and others.

The people panicked, dared not even say it, and bowed down to accept it.

"Folks, Liu Chan, the crown prince of the King of Hanzhong, swears here that anyone who dares to offend Jingzhou in the Eastern Wu will be punished! To expel the bandits from the Eastern Wu, he will be the king of Hanzhong alone, and will reduce taxes and burials for the fathers and elders who have suffered losses. Rest and recuperate, and never break your promise.”

"Expel the bandits from Eastern Wu! Protect my homeland in Jingzhou!"

"I swear that I will never die with the Jiangdong rats!"

Liu Chan ordered the National People's Congress to open the granary, and together with the Wu army's grain and grass captured in this battle, gave nearly half of it to the people in the county.

The people in the county refused, but instead offered their own rice to support the army.

After some persuasion by Liu Chan, he accepted it.

This is a Yang scheme. The rice and grain are distributed to the people in the county. If Wu Jun comes back again, he will not dare to take it in order not to lose the hearts of the people.

Of course, Liu Chan didn't think they would have a chance to come back.

Seeing this, the big gentry families in the county donated their food reserves one after another, and ordered the healthy children in the family to lead their private soldiers to join the army and attack Soochow together.

Among the people, there were also young and strong people who voluntarily joined the army to fight against Wu.

After the Zhijiang War, Liu Chan and Guan Yu's Jingzhou army rations did not decrease but increased, and the number of troops rose to more than 2. If the soldiers from the Eastern Wu were counted, it could even reach more than [-]!

The recruits and soldiers were scattered and mixed into Guan Yu's Jingzhou army, which not only accelerated the growth of recruits, but also facilitated the supervision of the soldiers.

Liu Chan, who was fighting more and more people and food, calmly started his next plan...
