Technology dominates the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 50 [Withdrawal? 】For collection, recommendation

On the afternoon of the fourth day of the army's expedition, he went to Hepu County, Linyun County, and Linyun City in Jiaozhou.

At this moment, Linyun City has changed hands, the city gates are closed, and the city is under martial law.

And an hour ago, Hao Meng, Song Xian, and Wei Xu led an army of [-] to Linyun County full of fighting spirit, and found that it was really similar to the one marked on Lu Bu's map, with a vast land and few people.

Later, when they arrived at Linyun City, [-] troops spread out mighty and mighty, a sea of ​​people, just outside the city.

Hao Meng even shouted to the defenders on the tower with pride: "Those who surrender will not be killed, and those who resist will not be spared!"

Originally, I wanted to attack Linyun City by force, so as to vent out the grievances in my heart these days.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished yelling, the city gate opened, and the defenders on the tower shouted: "We surrender, and you are welcome to enter the city."

What made Hao Meng and others even more confused was that the county magistrate of Linyun County brought officials to welcome them with great fanfare at the door.

"This is what the book of war says: Subdue the enemy without fighting?" Song Xian felt that his brain was not enough. This was the first time he had seen a city that surrendered so easily.

Wei Xu laughed loudly and said, "Haha. We have such a large force, I think they have scared the hell out of them. General Hao Meng's words like this, they might as well be amnesty and surrender obediently!"

Guo Jia, who was on the side, said: "Their defenders are only a few hundred. Our army is probably more numerous than the people in the city. How dare they resist."

What is it all about? It doesn't look like they are here to fight, they are clearly here to take over the city, or this kind of place where the birds don't shit, and no one can be seen for dozens of miles.

At this moment, Hao Meng felt cheated by Lu Bu.He was not sent to fight the war, but to run errands to take over Hepu County.It's nothing, the key is that it's still so remote.

"If I had known, I wouldn't have shouted, and would have attacked the city directly. I'm really aggrieved!" Hao Meng complained, and then said: "What are you still doing in a daze? Enter the city with this general!"

When entering the city, the people in the city looked at Hao Meng and the sergeant who followed him into the city curiously.To be honest, they have never seen an army with so many people, and all of them are wary.

After that, I learned something about Hepu County from the magistrate of Linyun County.It is similar to what was recorded on Lu Bu's map.

Although Hepu County has a large territory, it is covered with mountains and hills from the northwest to the northeast. Only the area facing the sea is relatively open, but because there are few rivers, the land is not easy to cultivate.Another thing is that there is no one.

There are only 8 people in the whole Hepu County, and there are four counties in one county. Yun County also only has a population of more than [-].

Only Linyun County, with a population of more than 1 people, has a small town and a short city wall, with less than [-] people in the city.

Seeing the arrival of Hao Meng's [-] army all of a sudden, everyone was terrified. Besides surrendering, what else could they dare to do?
Hao Meng was very angry and left thousands of people to guard the city. After noon, he led the army to the next county [Gaoliang City].

He didn't want to waste time in Hepu County, so he quickly took over Hepu County, and then went to Jiaozhi County to have a good fight and express his unhappiness.

Although it didn't rain in Hepu County, it was also a gloomy day today.However, Hao Meng's army just accelerated their journey, and the road to Gaoliang was much easier. The closer to the coast, the more flat and open the land.

In the afternoon of that day, Lu Bu's army was still on its way to Guangxin City, Cangwu County.

It was a day and a half away from Duanxi City to Guangxin City. Lu Bu and the others planned to rush to the intersection of Hejiang River and Yushui before dark, set up camp, cross the river at dawn the next day, and directly attack Guangxin City.

The sky in Cangwu County was still drizzling, and it didn't seem to stop.

However, when Lu Bu's army was about to arrive at the junction of He Jiang and Yu Shui, Fu Yong sent back a very bad news.

Guangxin City has closed its gates and strengthened its defenses, making it impossible to enter the city.

Lu Bu put away the secret letter without telling anyone.

As the sky was getting dark, Lu Bu led the army to the destination and set up camp along the river bank.

Afterwards, Lu Bu called Zhang Liao, Jia Xu, Xu Rong, Ding Hong and others to his camp, and handed them the secret letter.

Ding Hong had already compromised, he asked Lu Bu to agree to one condition, and then surrendered to Lu Bu.The condition is: Ding Hong directly participates in the war against Cangwu County.

Lu Bu promised him not to let him directly participate in it, but it is still possible to let him listen to some information about Cangwu County.

"What do you think?" Lu Bu asked.

Looking at the four of them, Lu Bu did not expect that it was Ding Hong who spoke first. Ding Hong said, "Now the prefect's mansion in Guangxin City should know the general's whereabouts, and also know that Gaoyao and Duanxi are occupied."

"The current Guangxin City must have strengthened its defenses, and there will be secret sentries near the city. There are more than [-] people in Guangxin City, and the defenders originally had more than [-] people, but the prefect went to Jiaozhi County and probably took away two or three thousand elite soldiers. , so there are at least [-] defenders in the city."

Having said that, Ding Hong stopped and looked at Lu Bu.

Lu Bu listened to what Ding Hong said, every sentence made sense, and motioned him to continue.

"If the prefect's government insists on fighting against the general, they will also mobilize troops from the surrounding counties. Mengling, Fengyang, Linhe, Fuchuan, Fengcheng and other counties alone can mobilize nearly 2 troops. There are more than [-] defenders in the city, and nearly [-] people."

"The soldiers in Cangwu County are not as brave as the general's, but if they want to defend the city, they can be undefeated for a long time. But if the war is prolonged, it will be even more unfavorable to the general. I suggest that the general return to Duanxi first, and then make sufficient preparations in the map. Immediately."

"Are you suggesting that the general withdraw his troops?" Lu Bu looked at Ding Hong suspiciously, only to see Ding Hong nodded slightly, but said nothing, because he felt that Lu Bu was not someone who would give up easily, and he had already said what should be said.

Obviously, Lu Bu didn't like Ding Hong's suggestion.Now is the best opportunity. If you miss it, it will be even more difficult to deal with these prefects when they are ready.

"Tell me your opinion." Lu Bu asked Zhang Liao, Jia Xu, and Xu Rong, wanting to hear different suggestions.

This time it was Xu Rongxian who said: "Our army is ready to attack. We can attack when the enemy is not fully prepared. This is the best time. If you miss it, you can only wait for the next opportunity."

All the way to attack the city and pull out the village, the soldiers of Cangwu County gave Xu Rong a feeling that they were very weak, they were not opponents of the Bingzhou Army at all, even if they attacked now, they could defeat them.It's just that he was worried about what Ding Hong said, if the enemy gathers 3 to [-] people to defend the city, it will be very difficult for them to seize the city.

Therefore, he suggested to attack before the place is fully prepared, which has a great chance of winning.

"Now is indeed the best opportunity for our army to attack Guangxin City. As long as Guangxin City is captured, other small counties will have nothing to fear." Zhang Liao agrees with Xu Rong's opinion, and at the same time finds that Xu Rong is also a general. With the idea of ​​intimacy.

Lu Bu didn't speak, but looked at Jia Xu who had been silent.

"I suggest that the general temporarily withdraw his troops." Jia Xu said calmly.

　The third change, at least five changes a day this week.Ask for collection, ask for recommendation, ask for support.
