Chapter 549 The Diplomat Lu Su
On the ancient battlefield on the outskirts of the north of Luling, Chen Dao led his troops to retreat to Luling City after a disastrous defeat. The ambush during the retreat made Cao Xiu dare not take advantage of the victory to pursue it.

Cao Xiu glared at Chen Dao, drew his sword and pointed at the vanguard soldiers under Chen Dao's command who were captured, and said, "Who are you and how did you reach the southern part of Wu State? How many troops do you have? ?”

Ask these captives with the most standard pronunciation, but what Cao Xiu got is still completely incomprehensible.There may be a few words in it that can be understood, but it is useless at all.

The combat effectiveness of these Jin soldiers was so poor that they couldn't compare with the original Yongliang army.Cao Xiu didn't need to think about it to know that these soldiers were some aborigines captured by the Jin State overseas.

"Kill!" With one order, Cao Xiu spared the lives of these prisoners.

They were originally a group of idiots who only knew how to eat, and their combat effectiveness was weak, so they were completely cannon fodder.It is useless to ask for information from them, and it is useless to stay.

The soldiers of the Qin army raised their knives and beheaded the captured soldiers of the Jin State, ruthlessly and decisively.

"Damn! How many alien troops does Jin have? This is already the sixth field battle with Chen Dao, and more or less tens of thousands of them have been killed. Why does Chen Dao still have tens of thousands of troops?" Cao Xiu frowned. He realized that it would not be a good phenomenon if it continued like this.

Although the combat effectiveness of these Jin navy is extremely poor, if they are just used as cannon fodder, sooner or later they will say that the elite of Qin under their command will be exhausted.At that time, Chen to Wei Yan and others only needed to send troops at will to counterattack Jiang Xia.

"Withdraw the troops and defend Yuzhang! Wait for the support of General Xiahou Dun, and let's take down Poyang as much as possible." Cao Xiu decided to retreat, and could no longer consume with Chen Dao.

In the distance, Chen Dao led his troops to retreat unhurriedly, and asked his confidants to count the number of people.Chen Dao has only [-] elite soldiers who belong to him, and these are the elite soldiers of Chu State back then.Now the [-] soldiers are broken into parts and are responsible for driving and managing the alien army.

"General, the brothers didn't charge forward just now, so they were not injured. In the battle just now, nearly 2000 foreign soldiers were lost. They didn't have armor, so the casualties increased." Su Wei ran to Chen Dao In front of him, report the situation to him.

Chen Dao nodded. The casualties in these few battles have always been heavy, and he is used to it.

"It's just tens of thousands of thousands of people. The Jin country still has nearly 15 foreign troops overseas. It's not a big problem to kill the Qin country. But this Han Peng... His Royal Highness is really powerful, and he secretly developed the warship to such an extent. At this point, it is not a big problem for a fleet to transport tens of thousands of people." Chen Dao admired Han Wu in his heart, but he hadn't consciously attributed himself to the Jin Kingdom, so he almost called Han Wu by his name.

"General, this morning, General Wen Chou sent information. It is said that the imperial court is going to build something called the Tongque Tower. Although the general is vulgar, he has also heard that only the emperor can build a high platform. Could it be that the king wants to build a tower?" Have you proclaimed yourself emperor?" Chen Dao's Suwei wasn't that stupid, he could still see through some things.

Chen Dao nodded, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Whether the purpose of building a high platform is to become emperor is hard to say. But the purpose of His Royal Highness to build a high platform must be to shock the world's heroes. At least it can make Qin and Wu feel the pressure , they don't have the capital to build a high platform."

Chen Dao calculated the time, if they started to build the high platform from now on, they would have to end the war in Wu State within at least one month.

Once the Tongque Terrace is completed, the people of the Jin Kingdom will definitely celebrate, and the generals guarding the frontier will inevitably return to their orders.If the war in Wu State cannot be ended, even the whole court will be dissatisfied with it.

"Forget it, go back to Luling first! Try to attract Jiangdong's young and strong, and let our brothers bring Jiangdong women back. It's cheap to marry Jiangdong's daughter-in-law, and they are all good-looking. Brothers have been fighting for so many years, and it's time to start a family .” Chen Dao sighed and told the brothers to deal with their own family affairs.

Chen Dao was not a womanizer, but the soldiers under his command followed him from Xuzhou to Jingzhou, and then defected to Jin State. Many soldiers had not married yet.Now in the territory of the state of Wu, the livelihood of the people here is not as good as that of the state of Jin. It is most convenient to get married and marry a wife, and it is also easy to bring them back by sea.

"Okay! The general is sympathetic to the brothers. I will tell the brothers to make them happy." Su Wei was very happy. He was 30 years old and still single, so naturally he wanted to start a family.

At the same time, in Poyang city

When Lu Su arrived in Poyang with his troops, Huang Gai and Han Dang were both stable and full of confidence.With Lu Su's military strength, this Poyang can be said to be impenetrable!Moreover, Lu Xun and Lu Meng have already given up on the generation of Hefei, and divided their troops to defend Shouchun, and the elite will be able to return to Poyang immediately.

Lu Su looked at the battle situation on the front line, frowned, and said in puzzlement, "This general of the Jin Kingdom, Chen Dao, is also a brave general with a strong ability to lead troops. Why do you lose so many soldiers every time you fight Cao Xiu?"

Seeing something strange, Lu Su asked Huang Gai and Han Dang.

The state of Jin has always minimized the loss of troops, so now it is so crazy to consume Cao Xiu's elite regardless of the loss of troops, it is really strange.Moreover, the combat effectiveness of the Jin army has become so poor that it is impossible to believe that this is a real battle report.

Huang Gai sighed, and said: "I asked my brat to investigate, and found that Chen Dao's army was almost all soldiers with strange shapes, and they were all thin and weak, without even the simplest leather armor. I suspect that these soldiers are The foreign soldiers recruited by the Jin State overseas, or it can be said that the foreign soldiers recruited by force, have relatively weak combat effectiveness and are used as cannon fodder."

Lu Su took a deep breath, and calculated the consumption of Chen Dao's troops after these several battles. It is conservatively estimated that it was tens of thousands.

"Tens of thousands of people... Jin has tens of thousands of foreign races as cannon fodder, and the troops are constantly replenished. It's amazing! Wen Chou was once a fierce general under Yuan Shao's command. Now he controls [-] troops, even if the fighting power of the foreign races is weak, It is almost comparable to the three or four thousand elites of the Jin State. It is really uncomfortable for such an army of the Jin State to take root in the hinterland of our Wu State." Lu Su narrowed his eyes, and he saw the deep meaning of the Jin State. The Kingdom of Jin is up for grabs!

If the state of Jin wanted to defeat Cao Xiu, only Wen Chou's current strength would be enough.And the reason why Jin State was reluctant to make a move was that it was waiting for Wu State to make an offer.It is impossible for the state of Jin to help the state of Wu resist the state of Qin for no reason, and they want the lion to speak loudly.

Lu Su snorted coldly, and said: "Send a letter to Wen Chou, and I will make an appointment to meet him. This man is very capable, and I want to ask him about some things about Jin. Jin must be waiting for us to make a price." !"

After finishing speaking, Lu Su frowned slightly, thinking about what Han Wu was thinking, and what price he had to offer in order for Wen Chou to defeat Cao Xiu and Xiahou Dun's army.
