Haiyan, fifty miles southwest of the city, is the secret camp of Tianshi Dao.
Sun En, Lu Xun, and Xu Daofu, the three leaders of Tianshi Dao, sat opposite each other in a temporary military tent surrounded by a curtain. Sun En held a military report in his hand, his brows furrowed, while Lu
Xunze let out a long sigh: "Brother, there is no need to be too disappointed now. After all, Liu Yu has this ability and ability. Third brother, according to your opinion, should we change the goal now and go around the world?"
Sea salt?"
Xu Daofu's brows were also tightly knitted, and he said in a deep voice: "Let me confirm again, is Liu Yu in Haiyan now?"
Sun En put down the Tang newspaper in his hand and threw it into the fire in front of him: "It's absolutely true, it was reported by our spies in Haiyan. At five o'clock in the morning, Liu Yu took two
Thousands of men and horses galloped from Juzhang and had already entered the city. Before that, Wei Yongzhi and Kuai En also brought 500 men and horses to help defend in Haiyan, plus the more than 1,000 state magistrates Bao Hu and his son originally had.
The county soldiers, as well as the newly recruited civilians, now have more than 4,000 soldiers and horses in Haiyan City, which is no less than Liu Yu's original force in Juzhang. Moreover, they came with the momentum of winning a big victory in Juzhang and killing Yao Sheng.
, will be a great stimulus to the defenders."
Lu Xun curled his lips and said, "Well, since Liu Yu is here and Juzhang's defense is empty, what if we return to attack Juzhang?"
Xu Daofu shook his head: "Absolutely not. In Juzhang City, there are still more than two thousand defenders and tens of thousands of prisoners. They have been escorted to Kuaiji. Soon, Liu Laozhi will also come with his army. From this time
Judging from the situation of defending the city, Juzhang's city is well defended and has strong fortifications. It can never be taken down in one fell swoop. If we return to Juzhang, it will play into the hands of Liu Yu. He can compete with Liu Yu who is stationed in Wuxing, Yixing and other places.
Yi, He Wuji and all his troops will go south together, and Liu Laozhi's Shanyin troops will also go north. Our army suddenly entered the fortified city and was attacked by the northern and southern armies of the Beifu Army. Now, although there are more than 30,000 troops,
Our army is elite, but it is bound to be defeated. Our plan should not be changed, it is still to go north to Hudu, open the mouth of the river, then meet up with our naval fleet, go up the river, and go straight to Jiankang!"
Sun En nodded: "What the third brother said makes sense. Then, let's not get entangled with Liu Yu. Let's go directly to the north with the whole army. If Liu Yu pursues us, we can return to fight with him, or divide our troops to resist at the back."
, most of the main force went straight to Hudu, and Yuan Song has no general talent. As long as Liu Yu does not go to Hudu, then we will definitely win!"
Xu Daofu curled his lips, shook his head and said: "No, since Liu Yu can arrive at Haiyan one step ahead of us, with the marching ability of the Beifu Army, he may be able to arrive at Hudu faster. The defenders of Hudu
There are more than four thousand. Although it is a newly built city, if Liu Yu arrives, our chances of winning will be even lower."
Lu Xun sighed: "If even the third brother doesn't feel confident that he can beat Liu Yu, it will be even more troublesome. Should we contact Liu Yi of Wuxing and ask him to let go and get out of the way so that we can go directly by land?
Take Jiankang?"
Sun En waved his hand: "It's impossible. Not to mention that our relationship with Liu Yi is not so good. If he wants to rise in the Beifu Army, he also wants to fight and make meritorious deeds. If he cannot hold the city and allows us to break through, his future will be ruined.
, so he won’t help us this time, and will definitely resist with all his strength. At most, when Liu Yu is defending the city, he can find excuses not to come to the rescue. Once we lose to Liu Yu, he will come faster than anyone else, and he will keep the secret.
Even if we are silenced, we will definitely clean up the mess as quickly as possible."
Lu Xun's brows furrowed tighter and tighter: "Since many options are not feasible, let's just make a false attack on Juzhang before the Jin army encircles them, and then evacuate directly from Juzhangkou by fleet. Anyway, this time we go ashore,
Three groups of Beifu troops were wiped out and thousands of gains were made. Although Yao Sheng failed all the way, it was still a draw and he did not suffer a loss. After Liu Yu performed his meritorious service, he would further conflict with Liu Laozhi. Wait until they kill Liu Yu first.
Transfer him away, and we’ll find another chance to come back!”
Xu Daofu smiled slightly: "Second brother, are you so afraid of Liu Yu? Did the last battle at Wuzhuang also make you suffer from Liu Yu?"
Lu Xun's face turned slightly red: "Third brother, now is not the time to be impulsive. Although our army has the upper hand now, our elite soldiers and wooden armor are all here. If the battle is unfavorable, everything will be lost. There is no need.
If we risk everything here, Jiankang City will not be captured by other forces for a while, so we can wait and see what happens."
Xu Daofu said loudly: "If we just withdraw like this this time, it will be an absolute failure, not a draw, because although we seem to have defeated three Beifu troops and lost one Yao Sheng, we defeated Yao Sheng.
But Liu Yu, after the war, he will definitely be further promoted, and even directly awarded the military rank of general, and he will be able to take charge of his own affairs from now on. If we are afraid of Liu Yu who can only lead a thousand troops, he will truly be the commander in chief in the future.
With thousands of troops defeated, do we still have a chance?"
Sun En and Lu Xun were speechless for a long time before they said in unison: "What do you think, third brother?"
Xu Daofu said in a deep voice: "I have a new idea. Maybe this time is our best chance to kill Liu Yu. If Liu Yu is killed by us this time, then there will be no hope for the entire Eastern Jin Dynasty.
Those who are blocking the divine religion!"
Sun En's eyes were bright: "I would like to hear the details!"
The next day, at noon, at the head of Haiyan City.
Liu Yu, dressed in a robe, stood side by side at the head of Haiyan City with Bao Hao, who was wearing leather armor. Looking at the west of the city, the Tianshi Dao military camp that had risen almost overnight and had been running for more than 20 miles, had a large
The banner with the word "Sun" in the air was floating behind the camp gate of the former army, and the Tianshi Dao sergeants with helmets on their backs and swords on their backs and spears were patrolling back and forth in the camp in teams and rows. No one was there.
They talked casually, and no one talked to each other. Everyone's face was murderous and their eyes were bright. This silent military camp had an invisible force that made people suffocating.
Liu Yu sighed softly: "When you see such an army, you will know why Gao Yazhi, Huan Bucai and the others were beaten so badly. Over the past few years, Tianshi Dao has also had elites who have fought in hundreds of battles, equipped with
They are definitely not inferior to our Beifu Army. With these 30,000 elite old thieves, they can sweep across the world. Those troops of Yao Sheng can only be compared with the 3,000 or 4,000 people of the Chinese Army, so the rest are not worth worrying about."
Bao Liu smiled slightly: "If Liu Canjun hadn't led his troops in time, and asked the Wei army leader and Kuai Zhuang leader to come in advance to help defend, I'm afraid that Haiyan has been lost now, and Liu Canjun would have to worry about the city defense this time.
La."
Bao Sizhi's voice sounded angrily: "But who will protect the people in the villages ten miles away from the city? Especially the women and children who did not run away when they stayed in the village, three or four thousand were kidnapped by the demon thieves, and now in the city
The civilian husbands are eager to go out and fight for their lives, Liu Canjun, can you lead them to get their families back?"
