Xie Ruyu, dressed as a Han military captain, entered the central hall, followed by a group of soldiers in lake green robes.
Seeing Zuo Guangping, Xie Ruyu laughed: "Master Zuo, you are so elegant and cheerful. In the middle of a battle, you can still prune flowers and trees so calmly. You are worthy of being a veteran of Shacheng and a meritorious veteran."
Zuo Guangping put down the scissors in his hand and waved his hand: "Thank you for your compliment, sir. I just have no pressure and want to retreat bravely. Sir, you are here to replace me. So I will pack up my belongings and return to the capital."
went."
Xie Ruyu waved his hand, and two captains came up and opened the defense map. Xie Ruyu pointed to Jieshan on the north side and said: "According to reports, Su Ping stationed troops here after breaking the Shanyue Rebellion. It is only a line away from Jiangzhou.
, the Han army discovered us."
Zuo Guangping waved his hand: "Impossible, we are acting strictly, and it is impossible for the Han army to discover us."
Xie Ruyu ignored Zuo Guangping and continued: "The latest news is that Li Kun is commanding an army and is stationed in Tiangong Mountain. Looking east to the south of the river, there is great potential to attack. Commander Zuo, how dare you say that your news
Didn’t it leak?”
Zuo Guangping looked at the defense map in confusion, as if he didn't believe the news would be leaked.
Xie Ruyu sat in the main seat in the middle hall, looked at the defense map and said: "Su Ping and Li Kun are all capable generals under Su Lu. They are people who lead an army and have defeated countless enemies across the northern border. If they are one person, they can also be said to be training soldiers or
When we are stationing troops, both of us are here, so the news can only be leaked."
"The two of you are stationed in the army. Once you make a gesture, you will invade Jiangzhou. You must be on guard."
Zuo Guangping hurriedly stood up and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Xie, I will gather my troops to stop them."
Xie Ruyu nodded: "Okay, with the words of Governor Zuo, I feel relieved. The level of the Han army under your command is worrying, and they will definitely not be able to stop Su Ping and Li Kun. I will transfer two troops from Shangshan Tang Army to train you."
The Han army under my command is divided into two groups and is in a stalemate with the Han army, allowing me to completely occupy Shangshan and then Jiangzhou."
Zuo Guangping nodded: "Okay, it's all up to Mr. Xie's arrangements."
Zuo Guangping was a little dissatisfied with this. All the armies of the Han Dynasty were like that. Even if his Jiangzhou Army and his Xiting Army on the Su Road were strong, they were very limited.
Xie Ruyu did this out of sheer fuss. He had a beautiful idea of completely occupying Shangshan. Luo Jiang, the magistrate of Shangshan, is a tough guy. He doesn't even give him face. You still want to occupy Jiangzhou without any blood. It's just a dream.
However, he would not say this. One of the secret edicts from the Tang Emperor was to order him to cooperate with the Tang Army in Shangshan, not to fight a war, to completely control Shangshan, and to preserve the place without war.
He has plenty of time to cooperate, it just depends on whether Xie Ruyu can win.
Shangshan County seat, county government office.
The county magistrates Luo Jiang and Luo Xuan were sitting on both sides, and several guards and captains were standing next to them.
Luo Jiang read the secret order in his hand, folded it and put it close to his body, then asked Luo Xuan.
"Before we get down to business, I would like to congratulate Luo Xuan on your promotion to the throne and the founding of the country. You are the number one member of our Luo clan."
Luo Xuan clasped his fists and said, "Sixth brother is polite. When I return home one day, I will entertain the villagers and have fun with the clan."
Luo Jiang smiled and nodded, stroked his beard, and said in a deep voice: "It's a coincidence that you came here. The Tang army in our Shangshan area has just been transferred to two units, and about one battalion went north."
"In the past few days, if you clean up the army, enter the city as soon as possible, and occupy Shangshan County, even Xie Ruyu will not be able to make waves."
Luo Xuan raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "Two Tang troops have been transferred, which means that there is less than one battalion of Tang troops left in Shangshan County. We only need one battalion to capture this place."
Luo Jiang nodded: "I will summon all the government officials to lead the way. There is no need to count on the Wei Mansion. Captain Xi was killed, Deputy Lieutenant Jiang was captured, and most of the Wei Mansion army was disbanded."
Luo Xuan said: "I only have one battalion in hand, and I am not good at commanding the army. I will definitely not be able to win here if we fight head-on. But the prince had the foresight and sent General Cao Hua to lead the army. Twelve, you go
Please greet General Cao Hua and be sure to arrive at Shangshan tomorrow."
The two guards turned around and left.
Luo Xuan continued: "Sixth brother, something is going on here. There will be a war. You must do a good job in governing the people. Otherwise, no one can save their lives if there is a war."
Luo Jiang stroked his beard: "Okay, I will ask the county government officials and officials to publicize the decree. When the war breaks out, everyone must protect themselves and not go out randomly."
…
When Cao Hua arrived at Shangshan, the sky had already darkened. Under the leadership of the government officials, the troops avoided the three gates in the southeast and west that had been captured by the Tang army and entered the city from the east gate.
At the gate of the county government office, Cao Hua met Luo Xuan, who was like an ant on a hot pot.
Seeing Cao Hua, Luo Xuan came up to him and asked in an urgent voice: "Captain Luo, I have told you the specific situation. Are you sure you can win the Tang Army's battalion? What are the prince's follow-up plans?"
Cao Hua waved his hand, and the guards behind him surrounded him. Cao Hua said: "General Luo, you guard the county government office and send me two guides. I will go and capture the Tang army and follow up with the army."
We'll be there soon. Li Kun's troops stationed at Zhonghu Lake are just an illusion. One of Li Kun's troops has already entered Jiangzhou."
"Su Pingjun will also enter Jiangzhou tonight and Jiangzhou City tomorrow. Zuo Guangping will have a peaceful sleep today. Tomorrow, he will never see the sun again."
After Cao Hua finished speaking, he, led by several government officials, headed towards a military camp of the Wei Army in the west of the city. After the Wei Army was dismissed, the Tang Army was stationed there.
Soon, the guards arrived outside the Tang military camp and saw the tent with all the lights out.
Cao Hua took a deep breath and glanced at Qingfeng next to him. Qingfeng was wearing a guard's light armor and a wingless hood on his head. He was standing next to Cao Hua with a nervous look on his face.
Qingfeng is a master and can protect his own safety.
Cao Hua was certain in his heart, thinking of Master's instructions, and raised his hand.
"Li Goucheng from the Jia Brigade, bring a few people and touch all the guards for me."
"The rest of the people form a spear formation and prepare to charge with me."
Li Goucheng and a few guards quietly went up. They were veterans of the Northern Territory and had experienced wars. They were sent by Su Lu for Cao Hua's temporary use.
Cao Hua waved his hand, and the guards quietly touched it.
After a while, there were several muffled groans in the camp, and the guards entered the tent.
"who?"
After a loud shout, the vigilant Tang army discovered the Han army.
"kill"
Cao Hua no longer hid, raised his hand, and activated the spear formation.
A familiar feeling enveloped the whole body, and power emerged from the limbs. The spear, like an arm, flew out of his hand and flew towards the Tang Jun who was speaking.
The Han army was surrounded by the spear formation, and their combat power doubled. They entered each camp in an orderly manner, slaughtered the sleeping Tang troops one by one, and solved the military camp.
After occupying the military camp, Qingfeng, who was still in shock, said to Cao Hua:
"Since the Tang army occupied Shangshan, why would they leave the north gate to us? This is really weird."
Cao Hua also nodded and pulled out the spear from Tang Jun:
"According to the county magistrate Luo Jiangyan, Xie Ruyu wanted him to surrender and gave him ten days to move his family members into Jiangzhou. I don't really believe this."
Cao Hua tightened his grip on the gun in his hand:
"I still believe in the gun in my hand. Master once said that everything comes from the barrel of the gun. I believe that when facing the tip of my gun, he will tell me everything."
