Chapter 377 Jiangyou lost
"Kill!"
There were shouts of killing in Jiangyou City, and Yang Huai led 20,000 soldiers and horses to keep attacking Jiangyou City. There are 2,000 soldiers and horses in Jingzhou in Jiangyou City, but there is no general, so he looks a little panicked under the attack of Yizhou soldiers and horses.
From the beginning, they were oppressed by Yizhou soldiers and horses. At this time, in just half an hour, no more than hundreds of soldiers had attacked the city tower, and every moment the soldiers of the state rushed to the city.
The sound of fighting lasted for a whole time. After the general who reluctantly commanded the battle was killed, the Jingzhou soldiers and horses on the tower completely fell into the melee and collapsed under the attack of more and more Yizhou soldiers and horses.
Boom!
A quarter of an hour later, the suspension bridge was slowly lowered and the gate opened.
"Into the city!" Yang Huai shouted loudly and rushed into the city first. Behind him, the 20,000 Yizhou soldiers and horses shouted and rushed into the city together. Like the autumn wind sweeping the fallen leaves, the Jingzhou soldiers who were still resisting were completely defeated all the way.
All the way, the two thousand Jingzhou soldiers and horses in the city were not their opponents at all and were defeated by them one by one.
"Sweep the Jingzhou soldiers in the city, close the gate, and get out of the list. At the same time, send the good news to the lord.
Above the hall, Yang Huai looked coldly at the officials of Jiangyou County one by one and said in a low voice.
"No." A leading official wiped a handful of sweat on his forehead and bowed.
"Who are you?"
Yang Huai looked at the official like electricity.
"My subordinate is the county magistrate of this county." The official trembled all over and whispered.
"Then why didn't you command the soldiers and horses in the city on the tower just now?" Yang Huai said in a cold voice.
"Your Excellency, since the soldiers and horses in Jingzhou fell here, although we have not been dismissed, we are only allowed to deal with the chores in the county. As for the city defense explanation, it is managed by Jingzhou's soldiers and horses themselves. The subordinates and others can't interfere at all, otherwise it will be a big crime to kill the head. The county magistrate said with a wry smile.
So it turned out that Yang Huai's eyes suddenly flashed away. Although Jingzhou occupied several counties, it did not fully control these counties. At this time, as long as the Yizhou army came to attack, except for Jingzhou's soldiers and horses, no one else in the city would help him resist.
Understanding this, Yang Huai was a little relieved. Jingzhou's influence in Yizhou is really pitiful. Jingzhou wants to annex Yizhou in one fell swoop, but it is a bit of a fool's dream.
......................................................
On an official road 30 miles away from Jiangyou City, Liu Qi is leading 10,000 soldiers and horses to march. There are not many soldiers and horses in Jiangyou City, and there are no generals. At this time, it is likely that they have been captured by the soldiers and horses of Yizhou, but Liu Qi still has some luck in his heart.
Driving...
A scout looked and approached quickly on a fast horse. Before he could salute, he directly dressed and said, "Lord, Jiangyou City has been captured by Yizhou soldiers and horses."
"Who is the general of Yizhou? How many people are there under his command? Liu Qi exhaled and was still preempted by Yizhou. Liu Qi was secretly annoyed.
"The Lord, the leader of Yizhou's soldiers and horses is Yang Huai, the general of Yizhou."
"Order the army to slow down and pay close attention to the movement of the Yizhou scouts."
Liu Qi thought for a moment and said that since Yizhou soldiers and horses have captured Jiangyou, even if he rushed there, it would be useless. On the contrary, it is possible to give Yizhou soldiers and horses an opportunity. Yang Huai knew that in history, this man and Gao Pei attacked Liu Bei together. Although he failed in the end, his courage was not small.
"No."
Looking at the departure of the scouts, Liu Qi ordered the army to slow down and began to consider how to recaptach Jiangyou City. This time, there were 20,000 soldiers and horses in Yizhou, but there were only 10,000 soldiers and horses under his command. Even if it was a strong attack, it was impossible to capture Jiangyou.
..............................................................................
Mianzhu
Since Liu Zhang's 200,000 army arrived here, it seems that the battalion should pay attention to staying here for a period of time. The 200,000 army set up camp outside Mianzhu City. The whole camp stretches for dozens of miles and is full of tents of the army. The whole Mianzhu is overwhelmed by the momentum of the 200,000 army.
The gate of Mianzhu City is extremely tight. There are less than ten people at ordinary times, and it has increased to hundreds now. Moreover, Mianzhu City is not surrounded by fast horses. They are all scouts of Liu Zhang's army.
In Mianzhu City, there are five steps, one post, ten steps and one whistle. Such a strict defense is because Liu Zhang, the pastor of Yizhou, is in Mianzhu City at this time.
And all the people who came with Liu Zhang are the hot figures in Yizhou, all of whom have actual control over the army outside the city. Any one of them is either a hot general in the army or the heir of the big family in Yizhou. Everyone can be regarded as a powerful person.
A fast horse ran into the city. After heavy inspections, it finally came outside a mansion.
At this time, on a large hall in the mansion, everyone who went with Liu Zhang this time was here. Standing outside the hall, you can hear the noise above the hall.
"Since Liu Qi's whereabouts have been found, an army should be sent to destroy it. As long as Liu Qi destroys the whole Jingzhou, he will immediately fall into chaos. At that time, the Lord will take the opportunity to expand its power."
The voice was cold, mixed with anger, and seemed to be dissatisfied with the attitude of the people present.
As soon as the man finished speaking, another voice sounded, full of gloating.
"Nonsense, Jingzhou soldiers are strong and strong, and the generals are like clouds. It is not comparable to me, Yizhou. It is a blessing to be able to drive Liu Qi out of Yizhou this time. If you kill Liu Qi as you said, it is bound to anger the whole Jingzhou. At that time, do you dare to stand up and bear the consequences?
......
Listening to the quarrel in the hall, the guards outside the hall are sweating coldly. These people have been quarreling about this matter for several hours, but there has been no result.
pedal pedal............
The footsteps sounded, and several guards outside the hall suddenly looked up not far away, looking alert. A soldier held a letter high in his hands and came over with a very respectful face.
He stopped in front of several people and whispered, "My subordinates are ordered by General Yang to come and think about the victory of the Lord!"
"Presperate? General Yang? That General Yang?" A young general outside the hall asked with a face.
"General Yang Huai captured Jiangyou, so he came to offer victory!" The soldier seemed to be used to being questioned like this, and he replied calmly without anger.
"Wait a minute." The young general was even more surprised. Yang Huai was one of the few generals under Liu Zhang's command. He had a high position and weight. He didn't expect to capture Jiangyou so quickly.
Taking a deep breath, the young general quickly walked into the hall where he was quarreling.
As soon as he walked into the hall, the young general rushed to look at him. The young general bravely said respectfully, "My lord, General Yang Huai sent an envoy to offer victory!"
"What?" A few words caused the people above the hall to exclaim.
Presperate?
Yang Huai went to attack Jiangyou City, right? Did he attack Jiangyou just a few hours away?
"Bell him in!" After a while, Liu Zhang's cold voice sounded, but even the young general could hear the surprise in Liu Zhang's voice.
"No." Hearing Liu Zhang's joy, the young general was shocked and said respectfully.
Then he turned around and walked out of the hall. Soon after, a soldier slowly came in with a letter in his hand.
"The villain came to offer victory on the order of General Yang!"
"Presue it!" A strange light flashed in Liu Zhang's eyes. What the hell is Yang Huai doing? It's so strange.
As soon as the voice fell, he immediately came forward and took the letter in the soldier's hand and sent it to Liu Zhang. Liu Zhang took the letter, opened it, and laughed.
"Okay, okay, Yang Huai didn't let me down after capturing Jiangyou City in an hour!"
"What, attack Jiangyou City in an hour?" Everyone in the hall took a deep breath. There were 2,000 soldiers and horses in Jingzhou in Jiangyou City. Although there was no general, even if it was captured by Yang Huai for an hour, it was really incredible.
It is much easier to defend the city than to attack the city.
"The soldiers and horses in Jingzhou are nothing more than that. What do you think?" Liu Zhang looked at the people with a smile.
"The lord is right. As soon as our army arrived in Jingzhou, there was such a defeat. It's really a blessing for the lord."
"Yes, I think the soldiers and horses in Jingzhou are not invincible. They only need the army to press them to win in an instant."
............
Although several people immediately said yes, there was no joy on the face of Huang Quan, Qi Zhou and others above the hall.
....................................................................................
In Yinping County, since receiving Liu Qi's order, Huang Zhong did not dare to stay for a moment, and immediately led his 20,000 soldiers and horses to Jiangyou day and night.
The news that Liu Zhang's rise and 100,000 soldiers and horses went north completely shocked him and scared him a lot. If Liu Zhang's 200,000 army goes north, Zitong County will be the first to take the brunt, while Liu Qi is in Zitong County at this time, with less than 20,000 soldiers and horses under his command. If something happens to Liu Qi, he really doesn't know what will happen in Jingzhou.
However, Liu Qi's hard-working foundation is likely to collapse overnight. Jingzhou, which was originally because of Liu Qi's strength, temporarily put away the evil forces, will also divide the big cake of Jingzhou at the first time.
Yinping County is far away from Jiangyou than Mianzhu, and when Liu Qi received the news, it would take at least half a day to give the order. At this time, even if Huang Zhong was calm, he did not dare to stay in Yinping County for a while.
Twenty thousand troops assembled in less than a quarter of an hour, leaving 3,000 people behind to escort food and grass to deal with some unfinished things. Huang Zhong led the rest of the soldiers and horses to Jiangyou.
Even if the road in Yizhou was difficult to travel, Huang Zhong still rushed to Zitong County in a few hours. At this time, the army was only 50 miles away from Jiangyou City.
"General, Jiangyou is lost." A scout came to the marching army and whispered to Huang Zhong.
"Uh-huh!" Huang Zhong nodded, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Is there any official message?" Huang Zhong took a deep breath and said that now he is most worried about Liu Qi. Even if there are changes in other places, Zitong can't make any mistakes.
"A few hours ago, the lord had led 10,000 soldiers and horses to leave Zitong and rushed to Jiangyou." The words are not amazing and immortal.
"What?" Huang Zhongjing was stunned and anxious. She was really afraid of what to do.
