Water Margin: You dog official, you still say you don’t know martial arts?

Chapter 638: Lu Shi Nang: The ups and downs of life are so fast, it's really exciting! [1 more]

Lu Shinang divided his troops into two groups.

He was the leader of the group and along with four generals, including the Sky-holding God Shen Gang, the Giant Spirit God Shen Ze, the Death God Shen Yan, and the Leopard Tail God He Tong, they led 4,000 troops to launch a surprise attack on Yangzhou City.

The other route was led by four great generals, namely, Dunjia deity Yingming, Liuding deity Xu Tong, Taibai deity Zhao Yi, and Diaoke deity Fan Chou, who led 10,000 troops to intercept Liu Gao's surprise attack on Runzhou.

Lu Shinang's order to Ying Ming, Xu Tong, Zhao Yi and Fan Kuo was to destroy them if possible, or to tie up the government troops if they could not.

As long as he could capture Liu Gao along the way, Liu Gao's surprise attack on Runzhou by the government troops would be defeated.

However, there were only 5,000 government troops in Yangzhou, and Lu Shinang didn't know why he couldn't destroy the other route.

The result was that when they arrived at the center of the river, the outcome was already decided, and the Southern Army was either kneeling on the boat or floating on the water...

"Brother, I have accomplished my mission!"

Lu Shinang looked at the person who was speaking. He was a burly man with thick eyebrows, big eyes, red face and a big beard.

He stood on the bow covered in blood, holding a human head in his hand. That head was none other than the Dunjia God Yingming!
"hiss--"

Lu Shinang couldn't help but take a deep breath, and suddenly he heard someone shouting:

"Brother, look at us!"

Lu Shinang looked hurriedly and saw three big men standing on a boat.

One had fierce brows and stern eyes, one had eyes like copper bells, and the other was a big man with goldfish eyes and a face full of big pimples.

The three big men were holding two human heads in their hands. They were Taibai God Zhao Yi and Diaoke God Fan Chou!

"Well……"

Lu Shinang's face changed, and he heard someone shouting:

"Brother, they are all dead, and I am alive!"

Lu Shinang looked hurriedly and saw a handsome man dressed in snow-white.

The big man in white was also standing at the bow, with a general at his feet lying on the side of the boat and spitting water. It was Xu Tong, the Six Ding God!
Good guy!
Lu Shinang could hardly believe his eyes. All four of his generals were wiped out!
The problem was that he looked at the government troops and found that there were at most two thousand people!

Ten thousand versus two thousand, how can you lose with a flying dragon on your face?
Not only did they lose, but three of their four generals died!

We are all human beings, so why is there such a big difference between us?
Well done!

Liu Gao cheered loudly for the navy officers and soldiers.

In fact, only one thousand of the two thousand naval forces were transferred from Liangshan.

There were also one thousand naval forces, of which six or seven hundred were Li Jun's former subordinates, and the other three or four hundred were Wang Heng's fellow villagers.

As for Lü Shinang's 10,000 naval forces, so many of them were drowned that Liu Gao had no idea how he had gathered them all...

Anyone who has a ship is not necessarily a naval officer, just like anyone who has a horse is not necessarily a cavalry officer but could be a suspect.

Lu Shi Nang was convinced.

Originally, he had envisioned that his 10,000-man army would defeat Liu Gao's government troops and then he would call a halt.

It not only showed his sincerity but also his strength, so that Liu Gao would not underestimate him.

The result was that Liu Gao's 2,000 naval forces wiped out his 10,000 troops, demonstrating Liu Gao's strength...

"Mr. En, I admire you!"

Lu Shi Nang was filled with shame and bowed to Liu Gao.

[Lü Shi Nang’s favorability +100+100+100……]

Then Lu Shinang turned around and shouted to the remaining Southern Army naval forces:
"If you don't surrender now, when will you surrender?"

When the Southern Army’s navy saw that even the Eastern Hall Privy Councilor Lu Shinang had surrendered, they didn’t necessarily want to fight to the end?
So they all surrendered.

Li Junqing counted the heads and found that there were more than 4,000 casualties and more than 5,000 surrendered soldiers.

"Brothers, go back to Yangzhou first."

Liu Gao ordered Li Jun, Tong Wei, Tong Meng, Zhang Heng, Zhang Shun, and the three Ruan brothers:
"I'm going to Runzhou."

Li Jun glanced at Lu Shi Nang and volunteered:
"Brother, I will escort you to Runzhou."

"No need to bother."

Liu Gao put his arm around Lu Shinang's shoulder as if nothing had happened:

"We'll go back as soon as we go."

[Lü Shi Nang’s favorability +500+500+500……]

As Liu Gao insisted on his own way, Li Jun and his men had to bid farewell to Liu Gao and led the navy back to Yangzhou. It didn't take long for Liu Gao and his men to cross the river and arrive at the Beigushan Ferry in Runzhou.

The Southern Army at the ferry recognized Lu Shinang and quickly took them ashore. Soon two generals came to meet them.

One of the two generals has big eyes and the other has small eyes.

Some eyes are as big as copper bells, and some are as small as sesame seeds.

"Eunxiang!"

The second general was very happy to see Lu Shinang, and the big-eyed general asked excitedly:

"Could it be that he has succeeded?"

"I missed..."

Lu Shinang stepped aside and solemnly introduced Liu Gao:
"This is Liu Zhizhou of Yangzhou!

"I have surrendered, why don't you come and pay your respects?"

"hiss--"

The generals with big eyes and small eyes couldn't help but gasp:
So sudden?

But as Lu Shinang said, they are all Lu Shinang's people.

Since Lu Shinang had surrendered, they would of course follow suit.

The big-eyed general and the small-eyed general looked at each other and bowed their heads:

"Generals Gao Keli and Zhang Jinren pay their respects to you, sir!"

[Gao Keli's favorability +100! ]

[Congratulations to the host and Gao Keli for becoming “casual friends”! ]

[Zhang Jinren's favorability +100! ]

[Congratulations to the host and Zhang Jinren for becoming “casual friends”! ]

It turns out to be these two!

There were too many of the "Twelve Gods of Jiangnan" and they couldn't fight each other, so Liu Gao couldn't remember who was who.

However, "Tai Sui God" Gao Keli and "Thunder God" Zhang Jinren left some impression on Liu Gao.

These two brothers are the official CP, and they once teamed up to kill another official CP, "General Baisheng" Han Tao and "General Tianmu" Peng Qi.

Among them, Gao Keli was a good archer and shot Han Tao in the cheek with an arrow.

Han Tao fell off his horse, and Qin Ming came to rescue him, but was killed by Zhang Jinren.

Peng Qi came to avenge Han Tao, and Gao Keli fought him with his spear.

Zhang Jinren shot Peng Qi to death from the side.

Liu Gao accepted Gao Keli and Zhang Jinren, and Lu Shinang sent people to find "Youyi God" Pan Wende and "Yellow Banner God" Zhuo Wanli to surrender.

Liu Gao sat in the pavilion at the ferry crossing and calculated with his fingers:
Three of the Twelve Gods of Jiangnan died in battle at General Chen's home, and one, the "God of the Sky" Shen Gang, surrendered.

Three people were killed in the water battle in Jiangxin, and one of the "Six Ding Gods" Xu Tong surrendered.

Gao Keli and Zhang Jinren surrendered at the ferry.

All we have to do is wait for Pan Wende and Zhuo Wanli to surrender, and then we will be done.

Lu Shinang stood nearby, sighing.

Before three o'clock in the morning, he was the one sitting here with his arms and legs spread out.

It was only the fifth watch now, and the one sitting here was already Liu Gao, while he was standing beside him like a minion.

However, the more he learned about Liu Gao, the more convinced he became.

Although I was convinced, I still felt a little sad:
The ups and downs of life happen so fast, it’s really exciting!
"Eunxiang!"

In a short while, two generals, one fat and one thin, hurried to the ferry with dozens of personal soldiers.

"Mr. En, these two people are Pan Wende, the 'God of Traveling Yi', and Zhuo Wanli, the 'God of Yellow Banner'!"

Lu Shinang introduced two generals, one fat and one thin, to Liu Gao, and then winked at Pan Wende and Zhuo Wanli:

"Why don't you go to see the prefect?"

Pan Wende and Zhuo Wanli looked at each other, and Pan Wende asked Lu Shinang:
"En Xiang, are you really surrendering?"
