… …
Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang, these two evildoers, were really right.
Lu Su and Lu Zijing had already left Kuaiji City, but now was not the time to return to the Lord Liu Mang's side.
"Yang Chen, pass down the order, all the soldiers are to shout cloth, wrap the horses' hooves, and look at the moonlight carefully!" Lu Su said to Yang Chen beside him.
"Yes, big brother!" Yang Chen nodded, and soon the three thousand men and horses told them one by one to wrap the horses' hooves, and everyone put cloth in their mouths to avoid crying out.
Out of the three thousand soldiers, only five hundred were true elites. The rest were some miscellaneous troops. A while ago, they were just a bunch of commoners. Therefore, this group of people was very slow. Lu Su could not help but frown when he saw this.
"Yang Chen, has the scout in front come back?" Lu Su asked Yang Chen.
"Not yet!" Yang Chen shook his head.
"General, general, the scout is back!" Soon, the scout in front came back with news.
"Reporting back to the general. We have finished our investigation. Sun Ce's army camp is in front of us. Only four camps are guarded. The rest of the camps are empty!" The scout explained to Lu Su.
"What about the whistles and hidden sentries, the investigation has not been completed yet!" Lu Su asked.
"This is still not clear!" The scout shook his head, the time was short, so the investigation was not clear.
Lu Su was about to get angry, but when he thought about what kind of soldiers they were, he knew that he couldn't let this bunch of trash complete the task he requested of the Yangzhou Army.
"Yang Chen, take two teams of people and follow me!" Lu Su was ready to go himself.
"Yes!" Yang Chen nodded and took two teams of twenty people to set off with Lu Su. The others were on standby.
The closer he got to Sun Cejun's camp, the more careful Lu Su became. But suddenly, Lu Su realized that all his efforts were in vain. According to Lu Su's plan, there should be at least four or five hidden sentries, but there was not a single person in sight.
"Is this Bofu Sun Ce's army so lazy?" Yang Chen said with a little disdain. Sun Ce was also known as Jiangdong's Little Overlord. Was this the case in the army?
"Something's wrong!" Lu Su shook his head. He had been in the Jiangdong Army before. Whether it was the Jiangdong Army's elite or ordinary troops, he had encountered them all. The Jiangdong Army would not slack off. Lu Su's enemies were Sun Ce, Lu Meng, and Ling Chao.
The three of them were all experts in military affairs. They wouldn't slack off in a place where they could set up a hidden sentry.
"Back off!" Lu Su suddenly remembered something.
"En?" Yang Chen did not understand.
"Go back to the hidden sentry place we just came from!" Lu Su said to Yang Chen.
Immediately, Lu Su took people back to the hidden sentry place they had just passed. Lu Su looked at the ground for a long time. After a long time, he smiled bitterly. "Sure enough, Wu Hou and his men are still so vigilant!"
"What's wrong, big brother?" Yang Chen asked doubtfully.
"Yang Chen, what do you think is different about this hidden sentry?" Lu Su pointed to the hidden sentry place and asked Yang Chen.
'What's different? There's no difference? ' Yang Chen looked over at a glance, there was nothing, except for some weeds that had been stepped on by people.
"Yes, it's these weeds!" Lu Su said to Yang Chen. It turned out that the opposite side of Sun Cejun replaced the people on these hidden sentry posts with grass. They drew a circle in the place of the hidden sentry post. The weeds outside the circle were cleared, leaving the center of the circle. Once someone passed through this hidden sentry post, they would inevitably step on those hidden sentry posts. Their scouts only needed to detect whether the weeds in these hidden sentry posts had been moved by people to know whether someone had sneaked in.
"But big brother, what if there are wild beasts or rabbits?" Yang Chen asked doubtfully.
"Rabbits? Oh, rabbits can step on the weeds in a hidden sentry post, will they step on all the weeds in all the places? " Lu Su shook his head. They had passed through many sentry posts, and they were basically stepped on by the two teams of people. It was difficult to restore the original state.
"Then what should we do now?" Yang Chen asked anxiously.
"We can only pray that the opposite side's scouts will explore these hidden sentry posts long enough for us to carry out a surprise attack!" Lu Su said to Yang Chen.
"Quickly, Yang Chen, you go back and bring the three thousand soldiers to me. Five hundred elite soldiers, followed by two thousand five hundred soldiers!" Lu Su said to Yang Chen.
"Big brother, what are you going to do?" Yang Chen looked at Lu Su.
"Yang Chen, have you read Zuo Zhuan?" Lu Su asked Yang Chen. Yang Chen nodded. "Zuo Zhuan" was a thing for the children of poor families. It was difficult to obtain, but for the children of noble families like Yang Chen and Lu Su, Zuo Zhuan was basically a necessity in the study of every family, so Yang Chen had also read it.
"Then you must have read Zhuang Gong ten years!" Lu Su said to Yang Chen.
Yang Chen thought, Zhuang Gong ten years? Zhuang Gong was also known as Lu Zhuang Gong. Lu Zhuang Gong ten years, Battle of Changshao? Yang Chen thought.
"Sage Cao Gui debate!" Lu Su explained to Yang Chen. "First drum, second drum, third drum, this was what Lu Su wanted to tell Yang Chen. Now, their soldiers were the army of the Qi State, and the opposite side was the army of Lu Zhuang Gong. Of course, Lu Su's Qi State army was still very large. There were only five hundred elite soldiers, and the remaining two thousand five hundred were completely to make up the numbers.
"From here to the camp, there is a full thousand steps. We need to be close to five hundred steps, and then rush into the camp. Once we rush into the camp, then the initiative is in our hands!" Lu Su only had five hundred elite soldiers, and the remaining two thousand five hundred people, you can let them fight a battle with the wind, but if you let them fight a battle against the wind, hehe, don't be joking. It would be good if your own people were not scattered.
If Lu Su could not rush over, then it would be the death of Lu Su.
Yang Chen quickly gathered the people. The sky was dark, and the moon was not bright, which made it convenient for Lu Su.
"One thousand steps, nine hundred steps, eight hundred steps, seven hundred steps, six hundred steps!" Three thousand soldiers carefully lurked in the grass.
"Big brother, look, Sun Cejun's scouts!" Yang Chen pointed to a small group of people coming in their direction.
"En!" Lu Su nodded. Fortunately, he made a prompt decision and immediately let the army move. Otherwise, when the scouts found out that their hidden sentries had been moved, then Sun Ce's camp would have to be vigilant.
"Yang Chen, take a group of people and go forward to solve this team of scouts for me." Lu Su said to Yang Chen.
"Yes!" Yang Chen nodded, and quickly left.
Sun Cejun's scouts on the opposite side said, "Boss, I want to take a piss!" The scout team had a total of two teams, a total of ten people. A scout in the team said to the leader on the side.
"Go, go, a lazy donkey takes a lot of piss!" The scout said impatiently.
"You can't blame me, it's mainly because I ate too much these days!" The little scout who wanted to go to the toilet said. These days, the battlefield was fierce, but at the same time, the supply for these soldiers was also open.
In the past, Sun Ce was raising the army. Jiangdong was poor, so naturally, Sun Ce would not be generous. But now it was different, Sun Ce's army was handed over to the King Of Shu, Liu Mang's Yangzhou to raise. Fifty thousand soldiers, Liu Mang allocated one hundred thousand stones of provisions, so naturally, the soldiers opened their mouths to eat.
"After this battle, we will become the Yangzhou Army!" Some of the scouts were looking forward to it.
"Yes, General Sun Ce has already surrendered to His Highness the King Of Shu. Didn't you see that our commander's flag has also become the commander's flag of the Yangzhou Army?" Someone on the side responded.
"If we become the Yangzhou Army, will we be able to get land, get food, and send our children to school? After we die, can we enter the Hero Palace and become immortals? " This group of scouts did not know what a monument was. In their view, going to the Hero Palace was just worshipping and becoming immortals.
"Of course, His Highness the King Of Shu, you didn't see the armor that the Yangzhou Army is wearing. Pfft! I'm so envious! "The scouts were fantasizing about their beautiful future.
The soldier on the side poured cold water on them. "If you want to become part of the Yangzhou Army, get food, and enter the Hero Palace, first of all, you have to survive. Secondly, you have to win this battle. If you die under the Huiji City Gate, haha, everything you have is for naught!"
After hearing the soldier's words, everyone became silent. Indeed, the battle in the past few days had been too fierce. Many soldiers had died under the Huiji City Gate.
The corpses were piled up. There was no time to deal with them, so they could only burn them. The moat was full of blood. They did not know when it would be their turn to attack the city wall. When that time came, would there be a chance for them to survive?
"It would be great if there were no wars in this world!" The soldier could not help but sigh.
"If there is no war, there must be a winner and a loser," a voice interrupted.
"Who is it?" The squad leader suddenly became alert.
"The people who will kill you!" Lu Su's cold voice sounded. Lu Su did not feel good in his heart. This group of soldiers was not only from Jiangdong but also had another identity. They might be soldiers of the Yangzhou Army in the future. They would be Lu Su's fellow soldiers. However, Lu Su had no choice but to kill them. Lu Su wished that this group of scouts had never appeared before. However, there was no 'if'.
"Big brother?" Yang Chen was a little hesitant. Listening to the words of this group of scouts, they were all loyal to the Yangzhou Army. Should he just kill them?
"Kill them to reduce the number of people sacrificing. Do it!" Lu Su's cold voice sounded again.
"Yes!" Yang Chen gritted his teeth. The hundred people behind Yang Chen quickly rushed towards the scouts.
"Enemy attack? Gou 'zi, go back and tell General Lu Meng that there is an enemy! "The scout shouted.
"What about you?" The man called Gou 'zi asked.
"We'll bring up the rear for you. Quick, go back!" The scout shouted.
"Oh, oh!" The man called Gou 'zi ran towards Lu Meng's camp.
"You can't run away!" Lu Su shook his head. He already had a war bow in his hand and aimed at Gou 'zi.
"Damn it, I will not let you hurt Gou 'zi!" The scout leader's face turned red. His men were lying on the ground in pools of blood. Gou 'zi was their only hope. As long as Gou' zi was alive and brought the news back, their deaths would be worth it. Hence, when the scout leader saw Lu Su aiming his bow at Gou 'zi, he immediately pounced on Lu Su.
"Protect the General!" The scout was quickly drowned by the blades, but his efforts were not in vain. At the very least, Lu Su's arrow did not hit Sun Gou 'zi. It only managed to injure Sun Gou' zi's leg. Sun Gou 'zi struggled to run towards Lu Meng's camp.
"Sigh! Why bother? "Lu Su shook his head." Yang Chen, pass down the order. Attack! "
"Yes!" Yang Chen nodded. "Brothers, let's launch a surprise attack! Charge!" Behind Gou 'zi, three thousand soldiers and horses rushed towards Lu Meng's camp in a grandiose manner.
"Quick, quick, close the camp gate. There are enemies! " With great effort, Gou 'zi finally arrived at the entrance of Lu Meng's campsite. He shouted at his fellow soldiers with all his might with his last breath.
"Enemy attack?" Sun Cejun's soldiers in the camp wanted to sound the war drums, but it was too late. The 3,000 Jiangdong rebels had already reached the front of the camp. Because of the continuous battles, there were very few soldiers guarding the camp. They needed to rest at night to prepare for the next day's attack. They were caught off guard by Lu Su's Jiangdong rebels.
Five hundred elites took the lead, followed by two thousand and five hundred miscellaneous soldiers.
Lu Su had said that if you let these two thousand and five hundred random players fight a battle against the wind, they would just be messing with their teammates. However, if it was a battle with the wind, then this group of people would be gods. They would be able to steal kills, and they would go all out to deal damage. Every one of them would be able to perform extremely well.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" Lu Meng's camp was shaken. Lu Meng was also alarmed. Such a big movement could not be contained. Lu Meng always slept with his clothes on during battles. His armor never left his body. When the camp was in chaos, he reacted.
"What's going on? What's going on? "Lu Meng frowned and asked his personal guard.
"General, General, there are enemies, enemies. They have come up in the dark and have already fought their way into the camp!" The guard explained to Lu Meng.
"What? Say that again? " Lu Meng grabbed the personal guard and questioned him loudly.
"General, there are enemies. There are enemies in the camp!" The personal guard said in fear.
"Impossible!" Lu Meng's first reaction was disbelief, because he knew who the commander on the wall was. It was the Left Governor, Zuo Li. This guy was an old antique, or rather, a conservative. He was more than capable of defending the city, but it was impossible for him to launch a surprise attack. He was not good at such tricks. He prioritized stability. How could Zuo Li play a sneak attack? As for Zuo Li's eldest son, Zuo Jie, Lu Meng directly ignored him. He was a complete piece of trash.
"Did the south gate change?" Lu Meng could only think of this. "Scouts? Where are the scouts? Why did you call the police when you were outside the camp? "Lu Meng asked.
"Scouts. The scouts were ambushed!" The personal guard said with a sad face.
"Trash! Trash!" Lu Meng shouted. He picked up his sword and rushed out of the camp. Outside the camp, the flames of war were raging. Because of the night and the fact that it was a sneak attack, Lu Su's troops were able to display 150% of their combat strength.
But even so, Lu Meng still managed to kill two of them with a single slash. After killing them for a while, Lu Meng discovered that these people were just a motley crew. How could such people break into his camp? Was this a joke? His subordinates, on the other hand, were caught off guard. They didn't dare to make much contact with the enemy before they began to disperse. They were completely chased after by the enemy. It would be strange if they didn't lose.
"Steady! Steady!" Lu Meng shouted loudly, but it didn't have the slightest effect. Lu Meng's eyes looked around. Suddenly, he saw a huge flag in the camp.
"Men, come with me!" Lu Meng waved his sword and ran towards the flag. Lu Meng directly threw away his sword and pulled out the commander's flag from the camp. "Jiangdong Army, listen up. Don't panic. Follow my flag and charge!" The camp was already in chaos. No matter how loud one's voice was, it couldn't be louder than the sound of people fighting. Therefore, Lu Meng's previous shouting was useless. But now, it was different. With the commander's flag, Lu Meng's troops began to fight back. The scattered troops and horses rushed towards Lu Meng's direction.
"Look, look, that's the commander's flag. General Lu Meng is there!" Some people with sharp eyes saw Lu Meng carrying the flag. Some people couldn't see Lu Meng, but when they saw the flag, they subconsciously rushed towards it.
"They are fighting, they are fighting!" In the South Gate, Young Master Zuo has been paying attention to Sun Cejun's camp. After staring for a long time, Young Master Zuo couldn't bear it anymore. Suddenly, a lackey on the side shouted at Young Master Zuo who was about to fall asleep.
"Hit you? Ah!" Young Master Zuo was awakened. Naturally, he was angry and slapped the lackey.
The lackey was very aggrieved. "Young Master, you said it. If there is a fight, I will call you!"
Zuo Jie saw that Sun Cejun's camp was already in flames of war.
"Big Brother, this Lu Meng is really a character!" Yang Chen stood on a high platform outside the camp and looked at the scene in the camp. The originally chaotic camp was slowly counterattacking because of Lu Meng.
"Lu Meng? Haha, this person's talent is not under your big brother! " Lu Su also nodded. Lu Su could see Lu Meng's ability. When Lu Su was under Sun Quan's command, he wanted Sun Quan to subdue Lu Meng first before marching to Linhuai. However, Sun Quan didn't listen. Although Lu Meng lost to Zhang Liao, you have to know what kind of person Zhang Liao was. Lu Meng was a veteran general who had fought hundreds of battles, from the North against the foreign races to the Central Plains against the various vassals. His combat experience was unimaginable. Even so, Lu Meng had persevered for a long time. Thus, Lu Meng was very talented.
"Today, the Jiangdong Army has suffered thousands of casualties!" Yang Chen looked at the battlefield below and said to Lu Su. Because Lu Su's army was fighting a surprise attack, Lu Meng's army was caught off guard. Under this surprise attack, hundreds of people were killed. In addition to the fire and the destruction of the camp, there were still thousands of casualties.
"Big brother, no matter what, they will be soldiers of the Yangzhou Army in the future. Will we be doing this? Will we? " Yang Chen couldn't bear it. You said that the scale of the sneak attack would be good. Do you have to have three thousand people attack together?
"Haha, if we don't have a good battle record, do you think our young master Zuo Jie will take the bait?" Lu Su also couldn't bear it. After all, these Jiangdong Army had pledged allegiance to Yangzhou. However, Lu Su had no choice. He needed to gain Zuo Jie's trust. So, without enough bait, our young master Zuo Jie will not take the bait. “
"R-reporting to the general, we caught a spy!" Just as Lu Su and Yang Chen were still watching the battle below, a scout over there brought news, saying that they caught a spy?
"Spy?" Lu Su was puzzled. They came to sneak attack, where did the spy come from?
Lu Su waited until the man was pinned down before he realized that he was not a spy, but a fish that escaped the net from the scout team. He was the lazy donkey that wanted to go to the toilet halfway through the journey.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me, I will tell you everything you want to know, don't kill me!" The scout was brought up and panicked.
He was afraid because his team didn't survive except for him. He hid in the bushes and shivered. If it wasn't for the stench in the bushes, he might not have been caught.
"Humph! Trash! " Yang Chen looked at the scout with disgust. Just now, the scout wanted to spread the news even if he had to die in battle. But now, this scout did not do so. He spilled out everything he knew. No one would like such a traitor, no matter who it was.
"Big Brother, let's kill this person!" Yang Chen said to Lu Su. It was better to kill such a traitor. "Someone come and drag him down!"
"Don't kill me, don't kill me, I beg you, don't kill me!"
"Wait!" Lu Su reached out his hand and stopped a few of his men.
"Big Brother, it's a disaster to keep people like this!" Yang Chen didn't understand.
"What's your name?" Lu Su walked up and asked the scout.
"My, my name is Gaud!" The scout replied fearfully. Lu Su approached the scout and smelled an unpleasant odor. He couldn't help but frown.
"Gaud? Hehe, I think it's called Wicked! "Yang Chen sneered.
"Yes, yes, yes, it's called Wicked, Wicked!"
"Gaud, right? Do you want to live?" Lu Su smiled and asked the guy called Gaud.
"Yes!" Gaud answered directly. Who would want to die if they could live?
"Do you want to be a high-ranking official? Do you want to be promoted and get rich?" Lu Su continued.
"No, no!" Gaud shook his head violently. He thought Lu Su was testing him.
"I don't want to. Men, drag him out and kill him!" Lu Su ordered his subordinates.
"No, no, I want, I want!" Gaud was so scared that he quickly changed his mind.
"Now, there's a chance that can save your life. At the same time, it can also give you a promotion and get rich. Do you want it?" Lu Su said to Gaud.
"Yes, yes!" Gaud thought about it and said.
"There's a letter here. After we leave, go back to the camp and teach it to your general. That way, you'll be promoted and get rich!" Lu Su took out a letter from his pocket and gave it to the guy called Gaud.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Gaud took the letter and stuffed it into his pocket. It didn't look like he was going to teach the letter to their general.
Teach the letter to their general? Was he stupid? He was the only one left in the scout camp, and it was already hard for him to explain himself. Now, he even had to teach the enemy's letter to their general. It was fine if the letter was good, but if it was scolding their general, he would be dead for sure! Therefore, Gaud decided that as long as he could escape, he would burn the letter. As Gaud was thinking, he suddenly felt a pair of eyes staring at him.
"Are you thinking of burning the letter for him?" Lu Su asked Gaud with a smile.
"Yes!" Gaud nodded instinctively, but he quickly reacted. "No, no!"
"You, either give this letter to Lu Meng, or I don't have to kill you. Your general Lu Meng will kill you. Remember what I said. This letter will save your life!" Lu Su said to Gaud. "Pass down my order. Beat the gong to retreat." Looking at the battlefield below, Lu Meng had already stabilized his footing. If they continue to fight, it would only lead to a stalemate. Once the stalemate continues, then Lu Su's army wouldn't be able to leave even if they wanted to, they would certainly be swallowed whole.
"Yes!" Lu Su's men quickly beat the gong to retreat. Lu Su's men drove out of Lu Meng's camp.
"Big brother, what about this coward?" Yang Chen looked at Gaud and asked.
"Find a place near Lu Meng's camp and leave him there!" Lu Su said to Yang Chen.
"Yes!" Yang Chen nodded. "Trash, come with me!" Then, he dragged Gaud away. When they were near Lu Meng's camp, they left Gaud there.
Seeing that Lu Su's army had left, Gaud stood up and spat in the direction Yang Chen left. "Pfft, who do you think you are!" Gaud was completely intoxicated by his success. He took out the letter from his pocket. "If it weren't for my intelligence, I would have died. You want me to send you a letter? Dream on." Gaud was about to throw the letter in his hand toward the fire.
Before he could throw it, Lu Su's thousands of soldiers shouted in unison, "Thank you, General Gaud, for leading the way. Thank you, General Gaud, for leading the way." Gaud was so scared that he fell to the ground, his face covered in dirt.
Lu Meng forced Lu Su's army to retreat, but Lu Meng wasn't happy at all. This was because at least a thousand of his men died in this battle. These were all elites, but the enemy only left behind a few hundred corpses. It would be strange if Lu Meng was happy. "Gaud?" Just as Lu Meng was feeling annoyed, Lu Su's army suddenly shouted.
"Good! Someone led the way for him. There's a spy! " Lu Meng slammed the table angrily. "Who is this Gaud? “
"Gaud?" Lu Meng's men all looked at each other. None of them had the surname Gaud. Even their subordinates did not have the surname Gaud.
"Are you all silent? Good, bring me the roster. I want to see who this General Gaud is!" Lu Meng was angry. He wanted to see who Gaud was.
"Gaud?" A guard beside Lu Meng thought for a while. He seemed to have an impression of this name. After thinking for a long time, he remembered. "General, I think there's someone called Gaud in the scout camp!"
This Gaud was a legend. This kid was considered a veteran of the Jiangdong Army. He had been through many battles. However, there was a strange thing. This kid was a small soldier a few years ago, and a few years later, he was still a small soldier. It was not because he was weak, but because this kid was always able to avoid certain death. He was there during the battle at Sanjiangkou. He did not join Han Dang's fleet because of a stomachache and escaped. He was also there during the battle at Changjiang. He lost his footing and fell into the river. When he finally climbed ashore, Sun Ce's army was set on fire.
"Scout?" Lu Meng was stunned.
"Report, General, there's a scout called Gaud outside." (My novel "My Father-in-law is Lü Bu" will have more new content on the official WeChat platform.
