Three Kingdoms Bandits

Chapter 591
As Cao Cao expected, after Wu Shun led the troops to Changshe, he took it down without any effort.

At this moment, the cavalry are using their horses to transport the earth bags outside the city.During the siege, this earth slope helped a lot.Now that Changsha is in hand, naturally there is no need for this slope.

"My lord, Zhongmu is currently guarded by Cao Ren, the famous general of the Cao army. Including some soldiers and private soldiers, there are no more than 4 people."

Xu Shu said.

"Yuanzhi, can you teach me how to break the city?"

Wu Shun didn't look back, he kept looking into the distance, Xu Shu couldn't guess what he was thinking.

"Cao Ren used his troops exceptionally well, and he led an elite Cao army. If Zhongmu wanted to attack, other methods would be useless, and the only option would be to attack by force."

In fact, the Wuling army wanted to expand its territory, and almost every city had to attack once.

In the outside world, the reputation of Wuling Army and Wu Shun is not very good.People with no information are very afraid of their arrival.

It is almost impossible for the enemy to open the city and surrender.Because the powerful are all gentry, they can surrender to anyone, but they are not willing to surrender to Wu Shun.

"Little Zhongmu, how can we stop our Wuling army? After Wen's eldest son Long and the others pacify the area around Changsha, they will return to Xingyang and formulate a strong attack plan."

After taking Zhongmu, the Wuling army directly threatened Xudu.That is now the capital of the Han Dynasty, representing the majesty of the imperial court, and it is also the power center of Cao Cao's forces.Xu Du, Cao Cao will not give up easily!

"My lord is wise!"

Seeing that Wu Shun was calculating, Xu Shu stopped talking.

Counsellor, just check and fill in the gaps for the lord.Of course, a protagonist like Wu Shun is sometimes very worry-free.

Just like now, the next step has been planned.

Of course, when Wu Shun was the shopkeeper, Xu Shu and the other officials would be a little tired.

Within half a month, the Changshe area was completely occupied by the Wuling Army, and officials had already been dispatched from Yizhou College.As long as the personnel are in place, these places will implement the Yizhou policy.

The cavalry officers and soldiers of the Wuling Army followed Wu Shun this time and made great achievements several times.After the award, Wu Shun quickly returned to Xingyang with the cavalry of the Xiliang Army and the Qilin cavalry.

The Changsha was temporarily guarded by the Qinglong cavalry led by Wei Yan. With 5 people here, Cao Cao didn't dare to attack easily!
……

Outside Zhongmou City, Dongfang Qiang stood with Zhang Xiong, Huang Zhong, Zhang Liao and others, admiring the "meteor shower" during the day.

"Brother Bubai, your fire bombs are not powerful enough. It took so many days to break through a city wall."

Zhang Xiong pouted, expressing dissatisfaction with the record of the Suzaku Legion.

"Second General, no matter how powerful the fire bomb is, it's still just a stone. It will still break when it hits a hard object..."

Dongfang Qiang explained.

Regarding Zhang Xiong's request that the Suzaku Legion smash Zhongmou City, he said that he could not do it.

"Oh, when will we be able to attack? Let the soldiers bombard us every day. Could it be that Cao Ren can come out and surrender?"

Zhang Xiong complained again.

He wanted to attack the city very early on, but Dongfangqiang stopped it because he considered that Zhongmu had [-] defenders, and Cao Ren was defending it.

"Half a month ago, the lord broke through Changsha, and it's time to come back now. How to attack Zhongmou depends on how the lord arranges it."

Fazheng spoke at this time.

As one of the three major military divisions of the Wuling Army, few people would refute his words.

Everyone here wanted to capture Zhongmou before Wu Shun came back, but if they attacked by force, they would definitely suffer serious losses.

"Brother is coming back?"

Speaking of Wu Shun, Zhang Xiong immediately became energetic.He believed that as long as Wu Shun commanded the Wuling Army, breaking Zhongmu would be a trivial matter.

"It should be here soon." Fazheng replied.

"Everyone, the fire bombs are exhausted today, let's withdraw our troops." Dongfang said strongly.

"General Dongfang makes the decision!"

Everyone said together.

Dongfangqiang has a strong commanding ability and is the actual commander here.Although Wu Shun said that Zhang Xiong was the main one, Dongfang was strong, and Zhang Xiong was used to letting him direct.

"Order to withdraw troops!"

Everyone had no objections, and Dongfang Qiang ordered directly.

With the sound of golden bells, the soldiers of the Suzaku Legion began to pack their equipment, and the infantry of the White Tiger Legion and Qilin Legion cheered up and prepared to protect the Suzaku Legion.

"Report~ My lord has returned to Xingyang. Tell the generals to hurry back and discuss how to break the city."

Just as the Wuling army was retreating, a messenger rushed over.

"My lord has actually arrived in Xingyang, send an order! Go back to Xingyang!"

Dongfang Qiang immediately changed the order.

I was going back to Daying just now, but now I am going back to Xingyang directly.

"Haha, big brother is back. Cao Ren's good days are over."

Zhang Xiong was so happy that he almost danced.All the generals were very happy when they heard the news of Wu Shun's return.

On the second day Zhang Xiong and the others returned to Xingyang, Wu Shun called all the people to discuss the siege strategy.

The current situation in the whole world is like this:
In the Central Plains, the alliance formed by Wu Shun and Sun Ce and the alliance formed by Cao Cao, Liu Biao, and Liu Bei are at war with each other.The two sides were divided into two battlefields, and the fight was fierce.

In the north, after Yuan Shao became seriously ill, the three brothers of the Yuan family began to fight for power.Yuan Shao's advisers have also begun to stand in line.Although the north is quite peaceful now, it is still undercurrents.

Now is the critical period to defeat Cao Cao and grasp the trend of the world.Wu Shun's idea is to exchange as little sacrifice as possible for more territory (benefits).

"My lord, Cao Ren used his troops like a god, and he commanded [-] defenders. If our army attacked by force, a large number of soldiers would surely die."

Xu Shu said.

Because the policy of the Wuling Army is not friendly to the gentry, the Wuling Army has to pay more to attack the city and pull out the village.

"A solid city, is there a way to make it mess up from inside?"

Everyone had no good solution for a while, Wu Shun muttered to himself.

"Let a city go into chaos from within?" Everyone was thinking about the meaning of this sentence.

Suddenly, both Xu Shu and Fazheng were seriously ill, as if they had thought of the key point.

"Xiaozhi, please!"

Xu Shu made a gesture of invitation, indicating that Fazheng said.He has already made great contributions with Wu Shun, so this time he simply surrendered to Fazheng.

"Thank you Yuanzhi."

After Fazheng thanked him, he cleared his throat and came out and said, "My lord, generals. The city of Zhongmou is strong and there are many defenders. It is not advisable to attack by force. Just now, my lord said something, which made me realize."

"Is there a way?" Wu Shun asked.

"Back to the lord, there is a way." Fazheng said.

"Speak quickly."

Everyone urged.There is a way not to say it quickly, do you want to die in a hurry or what?
"Everyone, don't worry! The loss wants the enemy to stir up chaos from within. What method do you use?"

Fazheng asked.

"Instigating rebellion?"

Zhang Xiong replied.

"Hahahaha...I see. The black-clothed guard!"

Wu Shun suddenly laughed.

When he said the word Black Yiwei, everyone suddenly realized.

That's right, this kind of situation is exactly what the black clothes guard is good at.The guards in black are experts in instigating rebellion, poisoning, and assassination.

Since Jia Xu joined Yizhou, he liberated Wang Yue.With the joint efforts of the two of them, the black-clothed guard became a poisonous snake in the dark.

And now, it was time for the poisonous snake to show its might.
