Chapter 2155: Ambush

In the Yuhang Wu army tent, a scout stood in front of Lu Meng and said, "Report to the deputy governor, Liu Xian gathered the main army to launch an attack on Qiantang. The veteran General Huang Gai is relying on Fuchunjiang to resist with all his strength!"

Sun Jing looked at Lu Meng and couldn't help but say, "The enemy is a tiger, wolf, and the enemy is not at all. Although the troops do not have any advantage, I'm afraid Huang Gai and the others won't be able to resist for long! Should we send troops to rescue immediately?

Now the main force of the enemy is indeed attacking Qiantang. The enemy forces here are limited, so there is no need to worry too much!"

Lu Meng said: "What the Governor General said is very true. But the Governor General thinks, will the enemy expect our army to rescue Qiantang?"

Sun Jing was stunned and asked in confusion: "What does the Deputy Governor mean?"

Lu Meng stood up, walked to the huge sand table in the middle of the hall, and looked back and forth between Yuhang and Qiantang, murmured: "Liu Xian is a great hero, while Guo Jia is the leading military adviser today!

With their wisdom, how could we expect our army to rescue Qiantang?

So the question is, since they have already predicted this, why would they let go of attacking Qiantang?…”

Sun Jing was not a stupid person. When he heard Lu Meng's words, his mind suddenly flashed and he said in a panic: "Are they going to siege the city and fight for help?"

Lu Meng nodded and said, "That's true! If we don't destroy the main force of our army, we want to break through Qiantang in Yuhang and finally capture Kuaiji, it will be impossible. Therefore, the enemy's goal at this moment is not to seize the city, but to eliminate the living power of our army!"

He pointed to a place called Lijia Village between Yuhang and Qiantang and said, "Lijia Village spans both sides of the Fuchun River. If I expected it would be fine, the enemy's ambush troops should have quietly crossed the Fuchun River from here and ambushed down..."

Sun Jing frowned and said, "What should we do? If we don't rescue Qiantang, we will probably lose in ten days and half a month! Although we did not fall into the enemy's trick at that time, we lost Qiantang and were defeated in the end!"

Then his heart moved and he said to Lu Meng: "It's better to give up Qiantang and Yuhang and guard Kuaiji with all his strength!"

Lu Meng said: "Although Kuaiji is tall and the river is wide, how can it last with an isolated city? Therefore, Yuhang and Qiantang cannot be discarded unless they have to!"

Sun Jing said angrily: "It's almost a situation of defeat now. If you don't give up the two cities, you'll be afraid that it will be not only these two cities, but also hundreds of thousands of precious troops!"

Lu Meng smiled slightly and said, "The Governor General said very well, but we have not yet reached such a moment!"

Sun Jing was stunned for a moment and asked quickly: "Brother Lu Meng, do you have any plan?"

Lu Meng pointed to Lijia Village and said, "The enemy must set up an ambush here, why don't we give them a plan?"

Sun Jing was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up and he said excitedly: "Does Brother Lu Meng plan to use this to in turn annihilate their ambush troops?"

Lu Meng's eyes showed hatred and said ruthlessly: "They want to siege the city and attack the aid, so I will take this opportunity to wipe out their ambush! Then the army crossed the Fuchun River, raided the camp behind it, and burned all its logistics and supplies!"

Sun Jing said excitedly: "If this battle can be successful, the enemy will have to give up the attack and retreat!"

Later that day, a large number of scouts who disguised themselves as common people ran out of Yuhang City and headed straight towards Lijia Village.

Although Lu Meng had already determined his plan to fight, he still needed to make sure whether his judgment was correct before mobilizing the army.

With the scouts sent, Lu Meng and Sun Jing and others were waiting for their reply in Yuhang City. Such waiting was undoubtedly a torment, and time passed particularly slowly.

Finally, a day passed, and the scouts sent to Lijia Village for investigation finally came back and reported to Lu Meng and Sun Jing: "Qi Bian, Deputy Governor, Governor, there are indeed signs of enemy ambush in the mountains around Lijia Village!

Based on various signs, we can roughly judge that the total strength of the enemy ambush is about 30,000!"

Sun Jing said to Lu Meng excitedly: "You have all come to expect!"

Lu Meng thought, "Thirty thousand ambushers are similar to what I expected."

He immediately said to Sun Jing: "The situation has been confirmed, and we can take action without further ado. We cannot ask the enemy ambush to wait for too long!"

Sun Jing smiled and said, "Let the deputy governor come to command it, I will obey the deputy governor in everything!"

Lu Meng clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Governor!" Then he shouted at the commander and said, "Call the generals immediately to discuss matters!"

Later that day, just as the sky was getting dark, the main force of the Wu army quietly left from the south gate. Lv Meng personally led the path and rushed to Lijia Village at a rapid speed.

At the same time, a civilian army of nearly 10,000 people, as a bait force, left the East City Gate with great fanfare and headed straight to Lijia Village along the official road.

Lu Meng's strategy was to lead the army to ambush near Lijia Village first, and then let the bait force deliberately enter the opponent's ambush circle to attract all the opponent's ambush.

After all the 30,000 ambushers of the opponent attacked, Lu Meng would immediately lead the main force in his hands to attack and surprise the opponent, so as to completely annihilate Liu Xian's ambush.

Lu Meng felt that it was almost certain to win this battle. Although Liu Xian's army had strong combat power, it was unexpectedly attacked by several times of its troops, and the entire army could only end up being wiped out.

Under the night sky, the rumbling footsteps echoed between the mountains and forests, and all the birds and beasts living in the mountains were alarmed.

In the second half of the night, nearly ten thousand civilians, who were bait troops, finally arrived in Lijia Village.

This Lijia Village is located on the Fuchun River, spanning the entire Fuchun River. Thanks to its unique geographical conditions, it has become a very wealthy village in this area.

However, due to the outbreak of the war not long ago, all the people in this village had fled their homes. Therefore, the huge village in front of us was deserted and very empty.

Shortly after the bait troops entered Lijia Village, the sound of earth-shaking war drums suddenly sounded in the surrounding mountains and forests! It was the sound of Liu Xianjun's war drums!

Immediately afterwards, under the reflection of the moonlight, the surrounding mountains and forests seemed to surge, and the sound of killing was shocking, as if countless troops rushed out and rushed towards the Wu army bait troops in Lijia Village!

The original silence was broken and the war began!

However, after Liu Xianjun attacked the village, he found something wrong. The opponent in front of him was too weak and he was not the way they expected the main force of the Wu army.
Chapter completed!
