Dahan Pirate Air Force

Chapter 406 Raindrops and golden bells

Wu Jun was in the hinterland of Wu State. At this time, in order to defend against Cao Pi in the north and Peng Qi in Yuzhang, troops were deployed on both sides.In Wujun itself, only a small number of garrison troops were left.

Most of these troops are recruited locally and have low combat effectiveness.When encountering enemy troops, they basically have no choice but to retreat into the city and rely on the city walls to stall for time.

Since there is a city wall, delaying time can be regarded as a tactic, but Lu Xun is not willing to delay.

This time I came to Wu County just for the marriage between the Lu and Zhang families. I would stay for a few days and then go back to Jianye.After all, Cao Wei in the north is the real enemy.Moreover, if a mighty and famous general of the Wu Kingdom is trapped in Wu County by thieves and cannot enter the capital or go to court, it will be a disaster for the world.

They had no choice but to use private soldiers. Anyway, every big family had private soldiers, and their strength was sometimes no less than that of the imperial army.

So besides your own Lu family, who else can you turn to for help?Of course it's the Gu family, the Zhu family and the Zhang family.

......

At the same time, the Zhang family also received the report.

Zhang Zhi was not as surprised as Lu Xun, because Zhang Bai had encountered water thieves on the edge of Taihu Lake before.

However, these thieves are too courageous to attack the county city. Don't they know that the walls of the county city are thick?How could these guys attack? They probably didn't even have a siege ladder, right?

He quickly called Zhang Bai, and the two discussed how to deal with it.

After Zhang Bai heard the news, he looked confident and told Zhang Zhi not to worry, Shan Yue would be defeated soon.He was calm and composed, with no trace of nervousness at all, which made Zhang Zhi couldn't help but look up to him more and more.

"Third brother doesn't seem to care about these mountain bandits. Is it because we have fought against each other before and have confidence in their fighting power?" Zhang Zhi asked.

"Exactly." Zhang Bai was also polite.

"Last time, although there were thirty or fifty strong men, I wiped them all out by myself. There won't be too many people coming this time, right? It is said that there are no more than a thousand thieves from Shanyue in Taihu Lake. Even if they all come, it won't be enough." There is nothing to be afraid of. As long as you give me a hundred troops, I will definitely be able to repel this group of Shanyue thieves."

Zhang Zhi shook his head and said: "Third brother, don't be rash. Although these strong men are not your opponents, they are accustomed to killing people and they are common people. You have a high status and are suitable for marriage. If something goes wrong, the Zhang family will suffer too much loss." .”

Zhang Bai smiled and said: "It doesn't matter. Anyway, I heard that General Lu Xun and Marquis Lu of Zhenxi are in Wu County. I'm afraid it won't be my turn to go out to kill the enemy."

Zhang Zhi relaxed after hearing this and said with a smile: "This child, at such a young age, looks like an adult. Where did you find out about these things?"

"Why do you need to ask? There are cars and horses in front of the Lu family, and there are officials from the capital visiting. Who can not know about it? And it is the time when the two families are getting married, so who else can it be besides Lu Xun?"

Zhang Zhi nodded, "It's good to know. Your marriage has alarmed even Marquis Lu, but you must act properly and not be careless."

"I know, second brother, don't worry."

......

However, two days later, all kinds of bad news came to Wu County.

First, the county officials and troops went out of the city to meet the enemy, but they suffered a major defeat.Not long after, it was reported that a high-ranking official in the capital fled overnight and abandoned the city.

According to news from the front line, this group of Shanyue thieves is very different from other Shanyue people, and their combat power is quite impressive.

Especially their leader, who wore a bronze mask and was very brave and good at fighting. He defeated the official army by himself and beheaded the leader of the official army.

As for the high-ranking official who abandoned the city, there is no solid evidence. After all, the prefect and the prefect of Wu County were both in the city. This legend seems to be a rumor.

But no matter what, the obvious fact is that the Shanyue people attacked not far from the west city gate.Seeing that the situation was not good, the remaining defenders in the city quickly closed the city gate and could not get out.

Seeing that the city gate was closed, the Shanyue people were not anxious anymore. They set up camp far away from the west of the city, as if they had no intention of attacking.

This confuses the officials and generals of Wu County. At this time, the prefect of Wu County is Zhu Zhi, and the governor of Wu County is Wu Fen. Both of them are experienced veterans.

The two of them climbed the city to take a look, and found that the Shanyue people's camp was in dilapidated condition. The camp walls were just railings made of woven bamboo, which made them very disdainful.

However, the ravine outside the wall made people a little suspicious. This ravine was very deep, enough for a person to stand without his head. I had never seen such a ravine before, and it seemed that the other party was still on guard.

Looking at the ruined camp, the two of them discussed whether it would be better to make a sneak attack at night, or to hold on and wait for help.On this day, there was no action.

In the evening, drizzle began to fall at the second watch, and the sky and earth were wet and dark.

The Shanyue people ignored the darkness at night and attacked secretly. The leader was not afraid of death. He actually climbed up the city wall with his bare hands and lowered the rope to lure other gangsters.

That night, the city was broken. The thieves from across the mountain came to the city, killed the soldiers guarding the gate, opened the city gate, and then the main force entered the city and set fire everywhere.

Wu Fen, who was awakened at this time, finally arrived with his troops, and a melee broke out between the two sides at the west gate.

Just when it was difficult to distinguish, suddenly more than a dozen people were killed on the battlefield.

These people were dressed in civilian clothes, with masks on their faces. Some held sharp long knives, some held ring-headed knives, and one held a long bamboo with branches and leaves. There was a cold light at the front. It turned out that It's a strange spear.

Leading these people was a young man in fine clothes, riding a horse and holding a long sword. It was Zhang Bai and Zhang Enpei.

There is a short child on the horse, riding in front of Zhang Bai. This child is also wearing a mask, and his appearance cannot be seen clearly. It is Zhang Bai's shikigami Xiao Hei.

Of course, what Zhang Bai brought was not ordinary soldiers, most of them were his spiritual consciousness.Except for the transparent consciousness and Wang Yanke, everyone else put on the clothes of the previously captured robbers, put on masks, and pretended to be servants.

The seven consciousnesses, plus Zhang Bai and Xiao Hei, and the trembling servant Aguan were brought to make up the number, and there were barely ten people.

The combat power of the divine consciousnesses is fierce. They are only one level lower than Zhang Bai's Yuan Shen. They are all in the Fusion state. Coupled with the terrifying Shikigami Xiao Hei, those Shanyue tribe are no match for them. They fell in an instant. many.

When the leader of Shanyue saw the ferocity of Zhang Bai's men, he suddenly let out a scream with a shrill sound.

This sound seemed to mean that the troops should be withdrawn. The Shanyue bandits saw that it was not good and immediately abandoned the fighting officers and soldiers and scrambled to withdraw from the west gate.

When the officers and soldiers saw that they had won the battle, they immediately became excited and chased them out of the west gate without mercy.

Zhang Bai was so proud that he rode his horse and stood there, not trying to catch up, but just waiting behind the formation to look out for the wind.Seeing that the Shanyue people had fled far away, he took away all the consciousness and Xiao Hei while others were not paying attention, leaving only one servant, Aguan.

Wu Fen, the governor of Wu County, did not chase him out. Instead, he ordered the soldiers to withdraw their troops immediately and wait for the soldiers outside to return. After the soldiers outside came back, he closed the city gate again.

This time he didn't dare to make any more mistakes, so he immediately ordered people to take turns on duty and guard the city all night.

After the arrangements were made, Wu Fen found Zhang Bai and thanked him.

When he learned that the young man who had helped him a lot was Zhang Bai and Zhang Enpei, the young master of the Zhang family who had been rumored recently, his eyes widened and he looked at Zhang Bai from head to toe.
