Soldiers come to the world

Chapter 311 A Head-on Attack

Jia Xu pondered for a moment, then asked the old housekeeper who reported the letter, "May I ask, who is the soldier who rushed into Lu's house?"

"It's Zhang Qu. He himself is also in the Lu residence, and it is him who..."

The old housekeeper was so angry that he couldn't continue. Jia Xu was secretly proud. He rolled his eyes and whispered something to Huo Jun. Huo Jun nodded, "I understand, I'll go right away!"

Huo Jun quickly stepped out of the big tent, got on his horse, and ordered the five hundred soldiers who had assembled under his command: "Follow me!"

He galloped out of the barracks on horseback. At this time, there were cries and shouts in Xiangyang City. Cai Zhong and Zhang Qu each sent [-] troops, divided into [-] teams, and robbed the [-] richest families in Xiangyang City. When all the money of the twenty wealthy families has been moved to the military camp, they will send troops to plunder other wealthy households, so as to ensure that the two of them get the greatest benefit.

The streets are full of patrolling soldiers, and people are strictly prohibited from taking to the streets to flee, and those who dare to resist will be shot, making the streets deserted, and no pedestrians can be seen. Twenty wealthy families also closed their doors to loot, only the cries of women and the screams of men can be heard Voice.

Despite this, an atmosphere of extreme panic spread rapidly at the city gates, feeling that bad people are desperately hiding money, and even young women are also hiding, but they don't know that once the large-scale looting starts, any of their Efforts are in vain.

Huo Jun led an army of five hundred confidants to Lu's house in the south of the city, the door was ajar, and dozens of ox carts and horse-drawn carts were parked at the door, ready to move away the treasures in boxes.

Huo Jun pointed his horsewhip, and a dozen of his men broke open the gate and rushed in. They saw all kinds of boxes and cages in the yard piled up like a hill. Soldiers were busy carrying all kinds of valuables, and dozens of corpses were piled up in the corner. , both men and women, old and young.

Seeing Huo Jun rushing in, a village chief hurried forward and said: "General Huo, this place has been ordered by General Zhang, please go to another house!"

"Where is Zhang Qu?" Huo Jun asked with restraint and anger.

"Ha ha! Why is Brother Zhong Miao here?"

I saw Zhang Qu coming out from the inner courtyard, and he was arranging his military uniform. Behind him, two soldiers supported a crying and beautiful young woman with disheveled hair and disheveled dress. Huo Jun probably was his brother's fiancée Lu Sanniang.

Huo Jun had already thought about countermeasures on the way here, he had to stop the tragedy tonight, so he said coldly: "General Zhang and General Cai are too dishonest!"

He pointed at the pile of gold, jewels and treasures piled up like a hill with his horsewhip, "All the benefits belong to you, so what about mine!"

Zhang Qu didn't know about the relationship between the Lu family and Huo Jun. Seeing Huo Jun's angry face, he suddenly realized that he and Cai Zhong's plan to get rich didn't include him, which annoyed him.

In fact, Cai Zhong wanted to add him, but Zhang Qu was worried that Huo Jun would object, so he didn't agree. He was a little embarrassed at this time. He and Cai Zhong had already allocated the [-] richest families, so how to divide them now?He must not allow only his own interests to suffer.

Seeing his hesitation, Huo Jun snorted even more heavily, "I don't care what you agreed on, I want to join now, you must give me a share, otherwise don't blame me for turning my face and denying others!"

Zhang Qu had no choice but to say to a soldier: "Go and invite General Cai!"

A soldier rushed away, Zhang Qu waved Huo Jun with a smile and said: "General Huo, please go to the inner courtyard to rest and wait, General Cai will be there soon!"

Huo Jun followed him to the backyard with a gloomy face, but many accidents would be unpredictable. When Huo Jun walked past Lu Sanniang, Lu Sanniang suddenly cried in despair, "General Huo, I am Sanniang .....help me!"

Everyone was stunned, Zhang Qu heard the clue, and suddenly turned his head to look at Huo Jun, he was very surprised and made him very vigilant, but what he saw was a sharp sword coming towards him, Huo Jun was prepared and reacted one step faster than him.

Zhang Qu was taken aback, and wanted to dodge, but it was too late, he instinctively stretched out his hand to block, only to hear 'click! With a sound, Zhang Qu's right arm was cut off, and Zhang Qu screamed in pain. The huge momentum made him stagger and fall to the ground.

He was terrified in his heart and tried to get up and run away, but Huo Jun stepped on the back of his neck, Zhang Qu couldn't move, he was frightened out of his wits and shouted loudly: "Spare me!"

Huo Jun whispered in his ear: "Do you know who I am Lu Sanniang? She is my brother's fiancee, can you still live?"

He swung his hand and cut off Zhang Qu's head with a slash. Blood spurted a foot away. Beside Lu Sanniang had never seen such a miserable scene. She screamed in fright and fainted immediately.

At this moment, the yard was in chaos, and Zhang Qu's men ran away in fright, but Huo Jun's soldiers were well prepared and blocked all the exits tightly, and the gate was even more tightly closed. Huo Jun's move was the signal, and hundreds of soldiers Together they drew their knives and slashed, and in a short while, they killed more than [-] people in the yard.

"Search the house, don't let anyone go!" Huo Jun ordered sternly, if one person escapes, it will ruin his career, and Jia Xu's plan will not work.

Hundreds of soldiers rushed into Lu's mansion and began to search and slaughter. Not long after, all Zhang Qu's subordinates in the mansion were wiped out, leaving no one left...

About half an hour later, Cai Zhong rushed to Lu's Mansion with a few of his subordinates. He was also quite in a dilemma. Twenty wealthy households would definitely give Huo Jun some points. The key is how to divide them?

Cai Zhong entered the gate and saw the soldiers busy carrying their belongings, but Zhang Qu was nowhere to be seen. At this moment, Huo Jun came up to meet him, pointed to a room and sighed: "General Zhang and I have some conflicts, he is losing his temper." , Cai Zhong, please go and persuade him!"

"Why did he lose his temper? Could it be that General Huo's asking price was too harsh, which made him feel that he was at a disadvantage?"

"I don't know, do I?"

Cai Zhong walked into the room with a smile, "Old Zhang, put out the fire and listen to me."

The room was empty and there was no one there. Cai Zhong was stunned for a moment. He saw that there was a door on both sides. He was about to ask again when he heard a sound of throwing a cup from behind, "Pa! '

When Cai Zhong turned his head, he saw the door closed behind him, he was taken aback, what does this mean?

Before he could react, dozens of knife and axemen rushed out of the rooms on both sides, each of them was extremely fierce, rushing towards him with sharp axes in their hands, and slashed at his head.

. . . . . . .

The night was getting deeper and deeper, and it was about four o'clock. Huo Jun stood on the head of Nancheng wearing a helmet and armor, pressing the handle of the knife, and staring nervously at the dark night sky outside the city. The flames of the city dimly illuminated the outside, and there was no movement outside the city.

Standing behind Huo Jun were dozens of generals, most of them were subordinates of Cai Zhong and Zhang Qu. To Huo Jun's surprise, almost all the generals were willing to serve Liu Jing, who had already penetrated into the hearts of Jingzhou people.

Huo Jun took a deep breath, and asked Jia Xu next to him in a low voice, "Do you think Zhuge Liang will be fooled, sir?"

Jia Xu stroked his beard and squinted his eyes and smiled, "Even if he thinks it's wrong, he won't give up Xiangyang easily, otherwise all his previous efforts will be wasted. If he doesn't give it a try, how can he be willing to go back? Don't worry! He will definitely come."

At this time, a soldier came from Dongcheng and reported: "General Wei Yan said that he is ready to cooperate with us at any time."

Huo Jun nodded, and glanced at Jia Xu, seeing that Jia Xu had a smile in his eyes and a confident expression, he calmed down a little, and then looked into the dark depths outside the city.

"Here we come!" Someone yelled in a low voice.

I saw an army appearing from the darkness, about [-] people, the leading general was holding a long spear. Huo Jun knew this man, and whispered to Jia Xu: "This man is Wang Wei, the former general of Xiangyang, who has surrendered to Liu Bei."

Jia Xu nodded, and looked back at the Wengcheng. The soldiers ambushing on both sides were already ready. He looked at the darkness behind Wang Wei. He guessed that Zhuge Liang must be hiding not far away.

At this time, Wang Wei stepped forward and shouted loudly: "I have come to take over the city under the order of my military adviser. Is General Cai here?"

"I am Cai Zhong!"

An officer responded in a low voice, his voice was very similar to that of Cai Zhong, and he could not be seen clearly in the dark, "Is Mr. Zhuge here?" He continued to ask.

"My army division leads the army behind and will be there soon. General Cai, please open the door as promised!"

'Cai Zhong' waved his hand and said: "Open the city gate!"

The suspension bridge was lowered with a bang, and the city gate was slowly opened. At this time, the horse could charge into Xiangyang City, but Wang Wei hesitated a little.

In fact, Wang Wei also felt a little uneasy, which was different from his imagination. He imagined that the gates of the city would be wide open, and a large group of officers would kneel at the gates with shirtless bodies waiting to surrender, instead of opening the gates with some reluctance as in front of him.

But Wang Wei hesitated for a while, and waved his hand, "Go to the city!"

The army started to line up to the city. Just two hundred steps away, Zhuge Liang stood on a high place and saw the situation at the city gate clearly. He also felt a little uneasy, but this uneasiness came from Liu Jing, Liu Jing Unexpectedly, he didn't take any action. Could it be that he just gave Xiangyang City to himself for nothing?

If it was still possible in the morning, perhaps Liu Jing would not get the news so quickly, but after going through a day and a night, how could Liu Jing not know that he was coming? Would he allow himself to enter the city so smoothly?

It was the ease of Xiangyang City that made Zhuge Liang feel that something was wrong. Liu Jing should be prepared, but he couldn't see this preparation. Zhuge Liang suddenly thought of something. Liu Jing and Cai Zhong had a deep hatred, and this Cai Zhong might not be true. .

He suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, and immediately ordered: "Order General Wang to stop entering the city!"

A cavalry galloped away, shouting loudly: "The military division has an order, stop entering the city immediately!"

There was a slight commotion at the gate of the city, and hundreds of people had already entered the city at this time, Wang Wei shouted: "Stop moving forward!"

On the top of the wall, Huo Jun knew that his ambush had been seen through by the opponent, so he immediately ordered: "Shoot arrows!"

With the bang of clappers, thousands of soldiers hiding behind the battlements stood up together, opened their bows and shot arrows at the Nanjun soldiers below the city.

General Wang Wei was the focus of the attack. Hundreds of arrows were shot at him at the same time. Wang Wei picked up dozens of arrows, but the arrows were like locusts, making him unable to hide.

In an instant, more than [-] arrows hit him, and the arrows on his body were like hedgehogs. Wang Wei yelled and died on the spot. His body rolled from his horse and fell to the ground. , The soldiers entering the city rushed out desperately.

But the suspension bridge has been raised again, making them nowhere to escape, but the arrows on their heads are like locusts. Soldiers screamed and were shot down. More than half of the more than 400 soldiers fell down, and only a hundred people were blocked in the city cave. Fear of death made them all cry, "We surrender, surrender!"

More than 1000 soldiers outside the city also suffered heavy casualties, and turned around and ran into the darkness. For a moment, only corpses and wounded soldiers who could not escape were left under the city.

Zhuge Liang also got the news that Wang Wei was killed in battle and the army was ambushed. Although he felt wrong in advance, he was still stunned when the news came.

After a long while, he let out a long sigh. This was because he had fallen into the enemy's trick, but the danger was far from over. Zhuge Liang immediately ordered: "The rear team becomes the front team, and evacuate to Ping'an Town immediately!"
