Now that Cui Yanmu has been controlled, Liu Shu will naturally not give the enemy any more opportunities to take advantage of him.
Even if Dugu Xuda arrived with his troops and horses, not to mention Liu Shu also called for support, even without the cover of his own troops and horses, he could still lift Cui Yanmu into the boat and walk along the water first.
He doesn't even need to run downstream, he just needs to go north along the water to meet Luo Yi and everything will be fine.
Luo Yi sent five hundred soldiers to wait on the south bank of the river. Liu Shu calmly escorted Cui Yanmu and several clan elders onto the boat and headed to the south bank.
What was left to Duguxuda was the town of Lukou and the people in the town who had no idea but no one.
"Congratulations, Commander!" The Han general standing on the dock on the south bank smiled and held his hands.
"The tiger's mouth snatched the food, but it's okay." Liu Shu patted Cui Yanmu, who had been tied up by the big five flowers.
Cui Yanmu struggled twice and whined something.
Liu Shu waved his hand and asked Baipao to remove the linen that blocked his mouth.
Cui Yanmu said coldly: "You only have such a few soldiers and horses, do you really think you can make a difference?"
Liu Shu and the Han general looked at each other, and General Pian smiled and said: "Cui Shi, I might as well show you how we have turned the world upside down!"
"Don't expect me to cooperate with you!" Cui Yanmu's eyes widened.
He fell into the hands of the Han people. After Dugu Xuda realized that something was wrong, he would definitely take over Yan County. Once he sided with the Han people, Dugu Xuda would probably send his family members to the West without hesitation. With two
Due to personal conflicts, Cui Yanmu believed that Dugu Xuda could do such a thing, so all he had to do now was to rather die than surrender.
At least if he doesn't surrender, Dugu Xuda won't be able to find an excuse to do anything to his family.
"You just came here by yourself, I didn't expect you in the first place." Liu Shu shook his head, "Detain him and let Inspector Cui sober up!"
Cui Yanmu snorted and was pushed away by the white robe.
Liu Shu looked at the cavalry on the other side with some worry on his face: "In order to hide food, grass and manpower, I had to actively pay taxes. I have always been worried that it would arouse suspicion. I saw that I was about to succeed, but I didn't expect Dugu Yong.
Ye finally discovered the clue."
"It is not easy for a commander to do so much. We have also heard about the cruelty of the struggle behind enemy lines. Leave the rest to us." General Pian said sternly.
"You haven't asked your brother's name yet?"
"The last general is Ren Youwu." The general said hurriedly.
"It turns out that she is the queen of General Wei." Liu Shu handed over his hand, obviously he had heard of this name.
General Wei Ren Zhong had died of illness the year before last, so it was reasonable for his son to join the army. After Ren Zhong's death, he posthumously awarded him the title of Duke of Pu, and appointed Youwu as a Duke, also under the title of Puhou, although in the Han Dynasty, the titles of these dukes, princes, and counts were all different.
It's just an honorary title, but Liu Shu can't be rude.
Ren Youwu returned the courtesy: "In the army, naturally, the military rank should be used as a basis for the commander to be polite."
Although the commander Liu Shu is equivalent to a captain, like the captain of the musketeers, the white-robed captains are actually demoted, so the two should be of the same rank, not to mention the white-robed ones, who are all
One of the teams that all Han soldiers expected to join was the Yulin Cavalry. Therefore, Ren Youwu naturally did not dare to stand up in front of a white-robed commander, especially a commander who obviously wanted to perform meritorious service.
"General Luo should be arriving at Yan County soon, right?"
"Calculating the time, it will still take half a day." Ren Youwu said helplessly.
The cavalry on the opposite side found that they could only rely on a few small boats to cross the river, so they turned their horses and left. Obviously, if they had to cross the river at this time, it was better to hurry up and join the main force.
Liu Shu frowned, hoping that Luo Yi could succeed.
Luo Yi sent someone here to give him a hand, and he had to help him too.
————————————
After Dugu Xuda learned the news that Cui Yanmu had been arrested, he almost jumped off his horse without any hurry.
This guy didn't even wait for him to arrive before he launched an attack, only to be captured alive. It was really embarrassing.
But now Dugu Xuda couldn't care less about whether Cui Yanmu would be embarrassed or not. If he couldn't get to Yan County in time, he would be the next one to be embarrassed.
According to the news from Lukou Town, Han troops have been found on the south bank of the river, and their number is not very large.
In other words, their main force should now be advancing towards Yan County with all their strength!
However, since these guys came from the sea, it means that they will not have cavalry or a large number of cavalry, so as long as you move quickly, you should still be able to do it in time.
But what Dugu Xuda didn't know was that it was actually the rear troops of the Han army rushing to Lucou Town. When he knew the news, Luo Yi had already led the Han army soldiers to approach Yan County.
At this time, on the Yanjun city wall, the Northern Zhou defenders had also received the news.
Cui Yanmu was away, and Yu Wenxian's fourth son, Yu Wengong, was stationed in Yan County. Now even the Northern Zhou royal family's loyalty to the Northern Zhou court was shaken. After all, Yu Wenxin served as a good template for these Yu Wenxian's
The brothers all realize that surrendering to the Han is not necessarily a dead end, and it is even possible to continue to build meritorious deeds. If this is the case, then why do we have to fight the Han to the end?
Once you have too many lives in your hands, you will really cut off your escape route.
So now Yu Wenxian can only send his sons out. As the direct royal family of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, their fate has been tightly tied to this dynasty, so others can surrender. Yu Wenxian's sons are destined to die.
Possible surrender.
However, Yu Wenxian also knew that these boys in his family were still young and had no chance of experience at all. Letting them out rashly to take charge of their own affairs would not only chill the hearts of the generals who were still loyal to the Northern Zhou Dynasty, but also possibly cause more trouble.
After all, they failed a lot because they had little experience and were actually not qualified to lead an army at all.
Therefore, they exist more as supervisors.
Yuwen Gong is the supervisor of Youzhou Army.
But now Dugu Yongye had to sit at Juyong Pass to deal with the Han army that was already arrayed outside the pass, and Cui Yanmu's life or death was uncertain. Yuwen Gong, as the only remaining chief officer in Yan County, had to shoulder the responsibility of commanding the battle.
This year in Youzhou, spring seems to have come extraordinarily late. Summer should be approaching in the Central Plains now, and the wind above Yanjun City is still chilly, just like Yuwen Gong's mood now.
Yuwen Gong never thought that one day he would dare to face such a situation. Except for the two brothers who were no more than the same age, Yuwen Gong was the youngest among Yu Wenxian’s sons, so Yu Wenxian also arranged for him to sit in the rear
This most secure task, coupled with the civil and military talents of Dugu Yongye and Cui Yanmu, can naturally ensure that Yuwen Gong is absolutely safe.
But now...it's gone.
Gunshots rang out one after another, and the Northern Zhou scouts outside the city scurried away with their heads in their hands.
