Technology dominates the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 43 [Jia Xu's plan to seize the high point]

As the sun was setting, Lu Bu, Zhang Liao, Jia Xu, Hao Meng, Guo Jia, Song Xian, Wei Xu and other generals led an army of [-] to approach [Gaoyao City].

But Lu Bu did not let the troops led by Hao Meng to attack with him, but ordered them to build a pontoon bridge to the south, cross the Yushui before dark, and set up camp at the prison water. In Hepu County.

Hao Meng's mission is to capture Hepu County first, and then march towards Jiaozhi County together with Lu Bu.

Whether it was Hao Meng's capture of Hepu County, or Lu Bu's capture of Cangwu County, they could not complete it in a short period of time after entering Yulin County.

Hao Meng led the troops to build a pontoon bridge by the Yulin River, and strived for [-] troops to cross the river safely before dark; while Lu Bu led the troops, strived to capture [Gaoyao City] before dark.

The two armies are racing against time, and at dusk, Gao wants to enter the city.

Ding Hong, courtesy name Shuping.Cangwu County Guangxin, aged 28, is now the county lieutenant of [Gaoyao County], obeying the county magistrate, in charge of the military and security of the whole county.

He is a young talent promoted by the prefect of the county. Ding Hong will always remember the prefect Shi Huang's kindness in knowing him.Shi Huang arranged for him to serve as a county lieutenant in Gaoyao County, because he wanted to experience him first, and then promote him to the prefect's mansion in a few years.

The county magistrate Wang Wenwen and the county magistrate Rongrong of Gaoyao County are the father-in-law and the son-in-law, and Ding Hong, who was arranged by the prefect Shi Huang, was ostracized openly and secretly set up.

At present, Shi Huang, the prefect of Cangwu County, went to the governor's office of Jiaozhi County to report on his duties. According to the usual practice, these days, they will prepare to transport the taxes and grains of various counties to Guangxin, and then they will start from Guangxin and transport them southward to Jiaozhi County via Yulin County. Jiaojiaozhou governor's office.

This task fell on Ding Hong's shoulders. In fact, Ding Hong could arrange for his subordinates to transport it, but the county magistrate Wang Wenwen and the county magistrate Rongran secretly played tricks, so he had to go in person.

Cangwu County transported grain to Jiaozhi County, passing through Yulin County.There will be accidents in the delivery of tax and food every year, but the size is different.Anyway, it once happened that all taxes and food were robbed, and all transport troops were wiped out.

Therefore, transporting food is a dangerous and laborious job.

Wang Wenwen and Rongran just wanted Ding Hong to have an accident and never come back, so that they would have a better chance to promote their own people, better control Gaoyao County, develop their own power, and dreamed of becoming the prefect of the county one day.

At the moment, Ding Hong is counting the taxes and food, getting ready tonight and leaving tomorrow morning.

Seeing that the sky is about to darken, the work in hand is not finished yet.Ding Hong was also aggrieved as a county captain in Gaoyao County.However, due to his reputation and Shi Huang's high hopes for him, Ding Hong did not dare to turn his back on Wang Wenwen easily.

Many Ding Hong could not understand what Wang Wenwen and Rongran did in Gaoyao County, but they could only talk about it, there was no way to stop it, even if they reported it to Shi Huang, it would be useless.

"Lieutenant Ding County, it's not good, something serious happened!" Suddenly a soldier rushed over.

Lu Bu put down the tax book in his hand, turned around and asked, "Why are you so flustered?"

"Lieutenant Ding, it's not good. The county magistrate and county magistrate have been killed, and their heads are hanging on the gate of the government office!" The soldier was terrified when he recalled that scene.

"What?" Ding Hong was so frightened that he backed away again and again, and after a few steps he stood still, his mind went blank.

When he came back to his senses, he quickly ordered the left and right: "Listen to the order of the county captain, close the city gate immediately, strengthen patrols in the city, and take down anyone who can find it."

"No!" Several generals responded and left in a hurry.

"You quickly transport the tax and food back to the treasury. The county captain needs to deal with the county magistrate and the county magistrate first, and the food transportation is postponed." After Ding Hong arranged the two important things, he hurried towards the county on horseback. Run to the government office.

But before he ran a few streets, a disgraced general ran towards him with a dozen soldiers. When he saw him, he shouted: "Lord county captain, it's not good. Our city gate has been breached. Now Many cavalry have entered the city. There is a dense mass of troops outside the city, and there are estimated to be tens of thousands of troops. What is going on here?"

Ding Hong's mind buzzed, his eyes widened bloodshot, and he asked: "What's going on? Where did the army come from, and why did it easily enter the city? Are my three thousand city gate guards just for display? "

Ding Hong couldn't figure it out no matter what, but he understood a little bit. The death of the county magistrate Wang Wenwen and the county magistrate Rongran must be related to the enemy army who attacked the city.

Sure enough, the general said: "I don't know who spread the news of the death of the county magistrate and county magistrate in the city, causing panic. In order to avoid chaos, many guards went to the city to maintain law and order. Then suddenly a group of people appeared, quite a strange group People, they were elusive, and killed the guards at the south gate in two or three hits, and then took control of the gate."

"Afterwards, a large area of ​​torches suddenly appeared outside the city, endlessly. The guards of the tower were frightened. But at this time, many cavalry rushed out from under the city wall, and rushed into the south gate. The south gate fell, and the guards They ran around."

"Those people still shouted after they entered the city: Those who descended will not be killed, no burning, killing and looting are allowed, no disturbing the people are allowed, and no needles and threads are allowed to be taken from the people!"

"Now they are coming to the county government office, what should we do, Mr. County Lieutenant?" The general finished speaking in one breath, and then he couldn't breathe, his ears were red and his face was red.

Ding Hong hesitated for a moment, and ordered: "Whoever is willing to follow me, come out with me through the north gate!"

Now that the general situation is over, Ding Hong wisely chose to leave, and went to inform [Duanxi County] to prepare to meet the enemy, and then went to Guangxin to inform the Cangwu County Prefect's Mansion.

Hoping that there was still time, Ding Hong slapped on his horse and hurried forward, leading the hundred and ten people towards the north gate.

Unexpectedly, the Divine Army Battalion, which had been eyeing him for a long time, made a move at this time.There were screams continuously coming from behind Ding Hong, and figures fell from the horses one by one.

"This..." Ding Hong stopped his horse, and when he turned his head, the people behind him had been replaced by dozens of soldiers from the Shenbing Battalion. He asked in amazement, "Who are you and why are you attacking here?"

"You don't need to know, come with us, the general wants to see you." Fu Yong, who took the lead, said at this moment.

Killing the county magistrate and county magistrate to cause riots, and then taking advantage of the chaos to seize the south gate to welcome the cavalry into the city, this is Jia Xu's plan for Lu Bu.As for keeping Ding Hong, it was Lu Bu who heard the information from Fu Yong and felt that he was a good person.

Now there is a shortage of local prestigious people, and Lu Bu will not let them go easily.Besides, the four gates of Gaoyao City have already been surrounded. In order to block the news, Lu Bu had to spend so much trouble.

"General? Your leader?" Ding Hong was stunned for a moment and asked.

Fu Yong looked at Ding Hong curiously, but didn't feel anything special, and thought: The general must have taken a fancy to his reputation.

"You shouldn't be the only one who knows, just follow me. Don't embarrass me." Fu Yong said, his tone became more and more severe.

Ding Hong is not a person who committed suicide, but he is a somewhat different person who knows how to repay kindness and understand current affairs.

He has his own principles and bottom line.
