Summoning the world to be one

Chapter 151
1 Fifty Chapters: Liyang Raiders

Liyang City is located in the south of Jiujiang County, adjacent to the Yangtze River, and across the river from Niuzhu, a border city of Wu State. It is an important town in the south of Chu State. Its position in Jiujiang is second only to Shouchun. It has always been the frontier of Chu State to resist Wu State. .

In Liyang City, an inconspicuous private house with its gate closed.

There were dozens of people inside the house, Zhou Kai secretly dispatched them to infiltrate Liyang to respond internally, and the leader was the leader of Wu's younger generation, Lu Feng.

Lu Feng, from the Lu family of Wu County, is the direct disciple of Zhou Kai, the governor of the State of Wu. I recommended it personally, in order for Lu Feng to accumulate more military achievements so that he can take over his position in the future.

"General Lu, three hundred brothers have already entered Liyang City in batches, and are lurking in various parts of the city, waiting for General Lu's orders." The one who spoke to Lu Feng was another leader of Wu Guo's younger generation, Wu Guo Lu Shou, the son of Deputy Governor Lu Ao, was also sent to gild this time.

Lu Feng nodded and said: "General Lu, you will inform all the brothers later that during this period of time, you must find out the important areas of Liyang City's defenses, where the food is stored, and the layout of Liyang City. Chu, it’s time for us to make meritorious deeds when the governor sends his army north, but we must be careful when entering and leaving, and we must not be targeted by the Chu army.”

"Here!" Lu Shou replied.

Although Liyang is an important town, the population has not been very large because it is located on the border. The sudden appearance of so many faces has also attracted the attention of the Liyang county magistrate, so he informed the general of Liyang this time, But it didn't attract the attention of Liyang's guard, and finally nothing happened.

The winter along the Yangtze River is no worse than that in northern Xinjiang. Usually around February, the snow starts to melt and the temperature gradually warms up.

In February of the 13th year of Qianyuan, spring farming was in full swing everywhere. Zhou Kai led one hundred thousand Wu troops across the Yangtze River, breaking through the riverside defense line of Chu State and entering the border of Jiujiang with lightning speed.

Liyang City also received the news that the Wu army was going north. The county magistrate and guard quickly ordered the people outside the city to enter the city. In addition, Kuaima sent someone to summon Shouchun to ask for support.

Lu Feng and Lu Shou in Liyang City also knew the news of Zhou Kai's going north, so they began to stay behind closed doors, waiting for Wu Jun's soldiers to approach the city.

Under the city of Liyang, the Wu army did not set up camp when they arrived here just now, but lined up in a row, assuming a posture of attacking the city.

Zhou Kai looked at the top of Liyang City, and said to Lu Ao, "Vice Commander Lu, send someone to persuade you to surrender."

Although there are internal support in the city, it is not difficult for Zhou Kai to conquer Liyang City 2, but it would be even better if he can win without a fight.

"Listen to the Chu army in the city, my family's chief governor has the virtue of being good at life, and he can't bear the war between the two sides, and the people are dying. I have been specially ordered to persuade you. Kaesong surrendered. The governor said, I will give you a stick of incense time to think about it, after a stick of incense, if you refuse to surrender, we will attack by force." Wu Jun sent a general to the city to persuade him to surrender.

"General, what should we do? The Wu army is going to attack the city after a stick of incense?" Li Wan, the magistrate of Liyang County, said to Zhang Ping, the guard, with a panicked expression.

Li Wan is only a child of a small family, because Li Yang is located at the border, and some children of a big family are unwilling to come, so it is his turn to be the magistrate of this county. He was already talented, but because he came from a small family and hadn't seen any big scenes, he seemed a little flustered.

"Why are you panicking? I'm here." Compared to Li Wan's panic, Zhang Ping seemed much calmer. He is the son of General Zhang Di of the Chu Kingdom. Not to mention anything else, just talk about Zhou Kai and Lu Ao in the city, Zhang Ping followed his father Zhang Di and Long Chuan and fought countless battles with them.

During the Central Plains War, the State of Wu raided Jiujiang and captured half of Jiujiang's cities. After the Central Plains War, Long Chuan led the Chu army to drive the Wu army out of Jiujiang. Zhang Ping was recommended by Long Chuan and Zhang Di to guard the important town of Liyang.

However, although Zhang Ping's resume is good-looking, but Zhang Ping is not a great talent, and his ability is mediocre. In normal times, it is okay to guard a city, but when he meets famous generals like Zhou Kai and Lu Ao, Zhang Ping is not good enough. up.

Zhang Ping took a deep breath to calm himself down, and then said to Li Wan: "Go and appease the people in the city first, and don't make any trouble."

"Okay." Li Wan also knew that he couldn't help Zhang Ping here, so he walked down the wall.

Soon after a stick of incense passed, Zhou Kai saw that the guards in the city had no intention of surrendering the city, so he ordered to attack the city.

The offensive and defensive battle at the top of the city is raging, and Lu Feng and Lu Shou in the city are preparing to attack.

"General Lu, the defenders in the city have already rushed to the city gate to defend the city. Now the county magistrate Li Wan and hundreds of county soldiers are all responsible for maintaining order in the city. The news just came back that there were shouts of killing from the direction of the city gate. It should be the governor who attacked the city." Lu Shou described the situation in the city.

Lu Feng nodded and said seriously: "General Lu, you take a hundred brothers to fetch Li Wan's head, and I will take the rest to attack the city gate. As long as the city gate is opened, Li Yang will be ours." It's gone."

"Here!"

Soon, Lu Feng sent his troops to the city gate. The city gate guard was nervously transporting the defense materials to the top of the city. He was suddenly attacked by Lu Feng, and there was a mess. Lu Feng quickly rushed to the city gate. and turned it on.

"What's going on?" Zhang Ping also noticed the strangeness of the city gate, and said angrily.

A lieutenant came to Zhang Ping with a mournful face, knelt down and said, "General, something is wrong. There are spies attacking the city gate, and now the city gate has been opened."

"What!" Zhang Ping was shocked, and hurriedly said: "I ordered you to immediately select a group of soldiers and horses to kill the enemy and close the city gate again."

And Zhou Kai and others outside the city also saw the opening of the Liyang city gate, and a smile appeared on the corner of their mouths. He knew that Lu Feng and others had succeeded, so he ordered the whole army to attack.

Lu Feng and others were brave and fearless, more than 100 people, forcibly withstood the siege of nearly a thousand Chu troops, and guarded the opened city gate. Soon, the Wu army outside entered the city.

When Zhang Ping on the city saw the Wu army entering the city, he knew that the general situation was over, so he walked down from the top of the city and withdrew from Liyang City with the remnant soldiers.

After Zhang Ping left, there was no longer any resistance in Liyang City, and the Wu army quickly occupied the entire Liyang City.

Zhou Kai, Lu Ao, Lu Feng and others walked on the streets of Liyang, looking at the corpses all over the floor.

Lu Ao asked Lu Feng, "General Lu, where is my son Lu Shou?" After entering the city, Lu Ao did not find Lu Shou, and felt very strange.

Lu Feng replied: "Going back to Deputy Commander Lu, the general will send General Lu to fetch the head of Li Wan, magistrate of Liyang County. He must be back soon."

Sure enough, as soon as Lu Feng finished speaking, Shou Lu walked towards them with a human head in his hand.

Lu Shou came in front of Zhou Kai, threw the head in his hands on the ground, cupped his hands and said: "I have seen the governor, and the general has already taken the head of Li Wan, the magistrate of Liyang County."

"Okay! General Lu has done a good job. When the victory returns to the court, the governor will personally ask for credit for you and Lu Feng." Zhou Kai laughed.

"Thank you, Commander!" Lu Feng and Lu Shou responded.

Several people came to the county government office, and Zhou Kai ordered: "Vice Governor Lu, let people clean up the city as soon as possible, post a list to calm the people, I believe that the Chu army in Shouchun will arrive soon, so let's not go north, just go north." Waiting for them here, as long as this Chu army is defeated, Jiujiang will be in our pocket."

"Here!" Lu Ao responded.

In this battle, it was too easy for Wu Jun to win, and the loss was negligible. Zhou Kai also changed his previous style of play. Yang, defeated the main force of the Jiujiang Chu army, and then went to attack Shouchun.
