Chapter 035 Vicious Words

The first year of Yuanxing (AD 402). November.

A new war report came from the west: after Huan Xuan annexed the Beifu Army from the main general sent by Jiankang, he tried his best to attack Shanyang City. There were not many defenders in Shanyang City, and it soon collapsed under the siege. After the city was destroyed, Liu Gui, Liu Jingxuan and Gao Yazhi fled north to the State of Yan.

Our southern expeditionary army advanced to Dongyang on the coastal road and cleared all the thieves along the way, making Dongyang a lonely city on the front line of Lu Xun.

The second year of Yuanxing (AD 403). The first month.

Huan Xuan ordered the Southern Expeditionary Force to break through Dongyang within a time limit and transferred reinforcements from Beijing to the south to fight together.

In order to defend the last position north of Yongjia, Lu Xun also mobilized scattered troops from all over the place to reinforce Dongyang. The most powerful troops were concentrated in the Dongyang area.

Dongyang is a military fortress deliberately built by Lu Xun to go north. Although it was not fully completed, it took our army a long time to capture it. The siege and annihilation war in Dongyang was extremely tragic. The bodies on the battlefield are shocking. Although the Dongyang garrison was annihilated, many soldiers were also sacrificed by the army.

There shouldn't have been so many casualties. Such a tragedy is only because the two of them underestimate the enemy. One is me and the other is Huan Xiu. My enemy was because the military progress in the early stage was too smooth, and I thought that Dongyang could go down; so was the enemy of Huan Xiu's light enemy, but it was better than me, so he personally commanded in Dongyang for the second time.

In the face of so many casualties, Huan Xiu just laughed and laughed at me with embarrassment. For him, the joy of victory in the war is far higher than the sadness of casualties. After all, this is the first victory he has personally commanded in his life.

Lu Xun, who went to Dongyang, had to withdraw all his troops and deploy them to Yongjia.

Although Yongjia is Lu Xun's nest, his defensive strength is not strong compared with Dongyang. As soon as our army arrived in Yongjia, there was an endless stream of sincere soldiers.

Lu Xun originally wanted to defend Yongjia, but he saw that the situation was completely irreversible, and the gap between the strength of the two sides was widening day by day, and the daily exhaustion of his military strength could be exhausted. Like Sun En, he asked me to meet him on the battlefield. However, this meeting is not a talk alone, but a military meeting.

"Where is the person who killed Lu Gui?" After the formation of the two armies, Lu Xun was no longer polite and pointed at me with a whip.

I don't know who has heard that Lu Gui, the general of the thief army who was shot by Liu Rongzu in Haiyan, is a distant relative of Lu Xun. He didn't ask about the person who killed Yao Sheng, but asked the person who killed Lu Gui. Obviously, he already knew that it was me who killed Yao Sheng. I didn't dare to challenge me, so I wanted to attack the person who killed Lu Gui.

Without waiting for me to call, Liu Rongzu jumped forward and shouted, "It was me, Liu Rongzu, who killed Lu Gui. If you don't accept it, come forward and ask for your life!"

Lu Xun's horse suddenly heard a loud shout and was shocked. Lu Xun was calm, stabilized his horse, and carefully looked at the young man with two guns beside me.

When Liu Rongzu saw Lu Xunguang looking at him without saying anything, he simply took down the bow on his back and raised it in his hand and said, "It is this bow that killed Lu Gui. Which thief dares to die?"

Before Lu Zhuan answered, a thief rushed out of the battle and went straight to Liu Rongzu.

When Liu Rongzu saw that the thief would be fierce in the future, he pulled his horse and left. When the thief saw Liu Rongzu leave, he thought he was timid and stabbed him with a gun. The gun was so fast that everyone exclaimed. However, although the tip of the gun was stabbed, Liu Rongzu's horse disappeared.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the thief quickly withdrew the gun, protected himself, and looked around suspiciously.

When everyone was wondering, the thief suddenly shouted and fell off the horse. On the door, the tail of an arrow was shaking.

Liu Rongzu turned over from the belly of the horse and sat on the saddle, circled around the array and ran the horse to the front. I saw him open his bow and arrow, pointing directly at Lu Xun. Lu Xun was so scared that he raised his hand to protect himself.

Liu Rongzu gently raised the bow and shot an arrow. Hearing the crack, the flagpole of a flag in the thieves' array was folded into two sections, and the big "Lu" flag floated down and covered the heads of several thieves. The thieves were shocked by the prominent thing. When the flag fell to block their sight, they were even more panicked and danced.

"Lu Xun, which of you thieves wants to try my archery?"

I shouted to Liu Rongzu, "Rongzu, don't be proud of your skills. Don't go down yet!"

Liu Rongzu saluted me and said, "Yes, uncle!"

Liu Rongzu has always called me military positions in the army, such as "Liu Sanjun", "Liu Sima", "Liu Dudu" and "General Liu", but now he called me "uncle". Obviously, he did it on purpose for Lu Xun.

Lu Xun was there and there was no response. Xu Daofu, who was sitting next to him, said coldly, "Your army probably depends on your uncle and nephew, Liu?"

I can still hear such an obvious provocative speech. He asked puzzledly, "Why did you say this?"

"This is the number of days when the Great Jin Kingdom should die. No one in the State of Jin could resist the divine soldiers of Sun Tianshi and Lu Tianshi, but they actually emptied your Liu family. Liu Laozhi is a person who doesn't know the current affairs. Anyway, Liu Deyu is indeed a person. However, in my opinion, besides your Liu family, who else can stop me?

Xu Daofu added a fierce general in addition to the opposition. Why don't I make a plan?

So I said, "Whether it's the Liu family or other families, they are all ministers of the Jin Dynasty. When the country is in trouble, the people should go there, not to mention that Liu Rongzu and I are soldiers. You demons confuse the public and mess up one side. Isn't it heaven to fight against the rebels as a king's master? Do you think there is really no one in the Jin Dynasty? Jin just didn't do its best to deal with you.

The country is worried about foreign invasion in the west and north, and elite soldiers will naturally deploy on the west and north fronts to resist foreign enemies. To deal with you, just use me, Liu Yu, a young general and Liu Rongzu, a fledgling pawn. Look at the soldiers in my team, which one is not ten, or even one hundred?

Xu Daofu sneered, shook his head and said, "There is a young general in our army. Although he has no ability, he can still use a knife. I know that Liu Yu is good at using knives. However, I would like to ask for the talents of your army in this small future. I don't know if there is anyone who doesn't have the surname Liu?

I laughed: "Haha. Don't you see that almost half of our army is knife-sup. How can you ask if there is anyone who uses a knife?

I bickered Xu Dao while thinking about what he meant. Maybe there are indeed some tall people in his army who want to borrow him to fight one-on-one to save the defeat just now. At the same time, I was worried that Lu and Xu were procrastinating and worried about what tricks they had. He also ordered Liu Zhong to send people to urge everywhere to strengthen the scouts.
