"What nonsense!"

"Who is talking about these unlucky things, I will be the first to get anxious with him!"

After hearing Zhou Cang's words, Pei Yuanshao was the first to jump up before the others said anything.

He originally wanted to persuade Zhang Yan to return to Lujiang.

Even if all the previous efforts in this expedition are in vain, as long as they return to help Lujiang, at least, neither they themselves nor the people of Lujiang will bear too much loss.

At most it's just some time cost.

But this time it's fine.

After listening to his "persuasion", Zhang Yan decided to go back.

But it didn't go back completely.

In this way, it is equivalent to taking risks that the coach who was originally in the army took risks that he didn't need to take out of thin air.

If nothing happens...

If something goes wrong...

Pei Yuanshao inevitably felt a little irritable in his heart.

……

"Okay, okay, stop arguing about those useless things."

"Brother Pei, Brother Zhou, our top priority now is not to sit here and regret, but to quickly contact the other two armies and take down Danyang as soon as possible!"

"As long as we end the war one day earlier, we can go back to support the Lord one day earlier."

"In other words, the risk my lord will take in this operation actually depends on our speed!"

……

Beside the two, finally Liao Hua came out, said something fair and stopped the quarrel between the two.

"Indeed."

Sighing, Pei Yuanshao also became quiet.

What Liao Hua said was right, the chances of his lord being in danger this time increased slowly over time.The longer he delays on his side, the greater the risk to his hometown Lujiang.

Thinking of this, he no longer struggled, but called the other two, got up together, and walked out of the camp.

……

"Yuan Jian, you are right, we should hurry up and act..."

"Let's go, we can't delay any longer. If we take down Jing County one day earlier, the danger on the Lord's side will be a little weaker."

"If we cooperate with the other two armies to complete the matter within three days, and then return to Lujiang immediately, then there must be time!"

……

He didn't know whether he was trying to strengthen his confidence, or he was talking to the two people behind him, so Pei Yuanshao walked out of the big tent while talking to himself.

After that, he also summoned the messenger who had been waiting outside the tent, and ordered the other party to summon the whole army. After an hour, he immediately set off to the Jinghe area in the north to prepare for the encirclement and suppression of Shanyue Danyang Zongshuai Zulang.

As for behind him, Zhou Cang and Liao Hua looked at each other, nodded, and then strengthened their inner thoughts.

……

This battle must be decided quickly.

……

Looking back to Lujiang, after Zhang Yan's three armies marched together to surprise Danyang, this place lost the strongest defense in the past.

The second soldier, Ma Si, who had been defending the Shanyue bandits near the eastern front, was transferred to the northern battlefield. The first soldier, Ma Si, who had been guarding Wancheng, was also taken by Zhang Yan to Danyang from the south to rescue the little prince Liu Xie.

It can be said that the current Lujiang River is the moment when its defenses are the most empty in the past two years.

And it was precisely at this most critical moment that a coalition army composed of various soldiers quietly crossed the blockade of the three-way army on the Lujiang River, and went all the way up the Yangtze River, reaching the most prosperous Lujiang River. , is also a city as important as the heart - under Wancheng.

……

Today is the third day.

Different from the news received by Zhang Yan and others, this army did not just arrive in Wancheng, but had already been dormant in the jungles of the mountains south of Wancheng for a period of time, until it was confirmed that the main force of the other party did not find themselves. And after there was no sign of returning to aid, they headed towards Wancheng, and before Kuai Qi and other people who stayed behind in Wancheng reacted, they expanded the county town several times and surrounded it with a population of hundreds of thousands. up.

You know, a population of 10 is not a small concept.Even the two largest cities in the entire Eastern Han Dynasty, the eastern capital Luoyang and the accompanying capital Chang'an, only had a population of 90 million, and this was already the capital of the entire empire.

In contrast, Wancheng, which is much smaller than Luoyang, actually has a third or even half of Luoyang's population living there...

This is difficult for a non-Lujiang person to understand and accept.

The same is true for these Shanyue who came from afar.

……

Maybe he was dazzled by the prosperity of Wancheng, or maybe he was worried that the excessive population would launch a counterattack, which might affect his plan. The leader of the coalition army on the Shanyue side confirmed the situation several times, and personally After Qiao went into the city to investigate several times, he made up his mind and launched an attack on Wancheng.

Although Zhang Yan had ordered a lot of jungles to be burned around Wancheng during the reclamation, most of them were plain areas that could be cultivated.

Like hills, or jungles in mountainous terrain, it is still very dense.

It is precisely because of this that when the opponent's tens of thousands of troops suddenly appeared under Wancheng's nose, for the residents of Wancheng who had finally returned to the peaceful era, it was like a nightmare that fell from the sky.

The mountain thief who roared loudly.

Armed and rushed towards his own soldiers.

And those shiny blades and armor.

It can be said that the appearance of these people has once again brought the peaceful Wancheng back to the tense war years in the past.

And if Zhang Yan knew about this, he would definitely regret why he didn't reclaim the surrounding mountainous areas little by little.

It's just a remedy before it's too late.

It is already an established fact that these people appeared under the walls of Wancheng.

Many familiar or unfamiliar faces gathered under the not-too-tall walls of Wancheng, bringing a very strong sense of oppression to everyone in the city.

Under the background of this oppressive feeling, a middle-aged man whose height is much higher than the average level of Yamagoshi, even standing out from the crowd, is standing at the bottom of the city, looking at the city wall in the distance, not knowing where he is. think about something...

Chapter 41 Sun Ce's Changes

The perspective came to the city of Lujiang Wancheng.

……

The scarlet wind blew across the city wall, bringing a salty smell, and at the same time making everyone on the city wall feel a little uncomfortable.

Different from the desolate and lonely atmosphere outside the city, a silent and solemn atmosphere is spreading on the walls of Wancheng at this moment.

Standing on the top of the city wall, one can clearly see that the stone wall that was originally covered with moss has now been covered by thick dried blood.

Those greasy epiphytes had already been wiped away by rounds of attacks.

Now here, there are only countless cracks cut by swords on the stone wall, and the meat slag mixed in those cracks is exuding a slight stench.

……

Perhaps in normal times, in such a harsh environment, ordinary people would be nauseated by the strange disgusting smell as long as they stayed for a few minutes, let alone fighting in such an environment.

But now, a large number of soldiers are holding spears and swords in their hands, one by one, leaning against the female wall, or simply lying on the ground, silently wiping their weapons, or simply closing their eyes to rest.

If you are careful, you can even hear one or two slight snores from the crowd.

No other, but because these people are really too tired, too tired, tired enough to ignore the adverse effects of the harsh environment on themselves.

At this moment, the soldiers who were still holding on to the city wall had only one thought in their minds, and that was to take a break while the opponent was not attacking.

If the opponent swung his troops to attack again, then he would have to fall into that kind of endless wheel battle again with fewer enemies.

……

A few days ago, the guards outside Wancheng suddenly discovered that a Shanyue army had appeared outside the city. Under the leadership of the Prime Minister Kuai Qi, the entire Wancheng immediately entered a state of combat readiness.

Although I didn't expect someone to attack me before, but no matter what, I was born in a troubled family. When faced with such an emergency, Kuai Qi reacted quickly and ordered the closure of all to prevent further deterioration of the situation.

At this time, the advantages of the separation of Lujiang military and police were also reflected.

With all the troops exhausted, Wancheng, which was already extremely empty, forced an army of more than 5000 people to guard it by relying on the Secretary of Public Security, who was in charge of public security, and temporarily recruiting private soldiers raised by the aristocratic families in the city. This city is located behind the Lujiang River.

In fact, at this point, Kuai Qi thought that there would be no problem with the safety of the Lujiang River.

After all, even if the combat capabilities of these "police forces" are far inferior to the full-time troops in Lujiang due to the nature of their work and the intensity of their training, there is still no problem in comparing them with the low-level arms of this era.

It's just a pity that just when everyone thought that Wancheng would be safe and sound, another change happened.

The city gate, which was supposed to be tightly closed, suddenly opened the gate to the outside one night without receiving an order from the superior.

And the Shanyue surprise attack troops outside also launched a general offensive, attacking Wancheng from all directions at the same time, and launched a fierce battle with the left behind troops in Wancheng under the city gate.

That time, at the most dangerous moment, the opponent's soldiers had even reached the corridor of the city gate, and rushed into the city after a dozen meters at most.

Fortunately, thanks to the crowded terrain at the city gate and the help of some "gadgets" far ahead of this era, the security force left behind in Lujiang successfully drove the opponent out of the city after paying a huge price of casualties. Little by little it was pushed out.

After that, after re-sealing the city gate, the city walls were placed on both sides like this, you stared at me, I stared at you, and spent time on both sides of the city gate.

……

In fact, after the investigation by Kuai Qi and others, it turned out that a few days ago, before these allied forces from Shanyue appeared, many Yue soldiers had already disguised themselves as businessmen by disguising themselves. , into the interior of Wancheng,

It was precisely because of these people's cooperation inside and outside that they opened the city gate at night, which caused Wancheng to almost fall, and even thousands of people died in this almost endless battle of defending the city.

After all, although the law and order in Lujiang was chaotic before, it was mostly the local people's own affairs.

Located in a remote place, there are very few opportunities to participate in the situation where the two forces compete with each other.

Therefore, it can be said that it is normal to not have enough vigilance and have no experience in the enemy's infiltration work.

……

After confirming this that day, Kuai Qi quickly ordered a complete closure of the city, which not only completely cut off the communication inside and outside the city of Wancheng, but also strengthened the defense work at the gate of the city, and changed all the guards into The system of rotating positions without sleep for [-] hours.
