Chapter 541 Wu County Ambush
Chapter 542: Ambush in Wu County
After admonishing his son, Tang Yuan came to the county government office, informed Fan Yang of the agreement between Tang Bu and Zhang Long, and then left.

After sending Tang Yuan away, Xiang Quan came to Fan Yang's side and said, "Do you think this Tang Yuan will join us in the end? On the surface, he is helping us to lure Zhao Jun, but in fact he is colluding with Zhao Jun."

Fan Yang shook his head and said, "No, Tang Yuan doesn't have the guts yet, and I think Tang Yuan should have guessed the power behind us, so he is even more afraid."

"He guessed it? Then do you want to silence him after the incident?" Xiang Quan asked. Their identities are kept secret. Now that Tang Yuan has guessed the power behind them, if he goes to inform Zhao Jun, it will easily attract Zhao Jun. The encirclement and suppression of the main force spirit.

"No need, Tang Yuan is the head of the gentry and nobles in Wu County. If you kill him rashly, you will be in great trouble. Besides, our identity cannot be concealed. We will make it public sooner or later. As long as we have enough to shake Zhao The basic strength of the army's rear can be used to uphold the banner." Fan Yang said.

They surrendered to Deng Guo, and Xiang Quan, Guan Ling and others came from Deng Guo. They couldn't hide it for long. Killing Tang Yuan was not worth the loss.

Two days later, in the 27th year of Qianyuan, on the night of the fifth day of September, Zhang Long led his troops to hide outside Wu County, waiting for a signal from the Tang family in the city. As soon as the signal sounded, they could directly enter the city. .

But what Zhang Long didn't know was that his every move was being monitored. Guan Ling was in charge of guarding the city gate tonight, and Tang Yuan's eldest son Tang Bu was with him. Ling realized that it was Zhao Jun who came, so she said to Tang Bu, "Young Master Tang, I will leave everything to you."

"Don't worry, general!" Tang Bu nodded and said, then turned and went down the wall. After Tang Bu left, Guan Ling ordered the soldiers to hide.

Tang Bu came to the city gate, gathered the dozens of guards who had brought him, and then laid out a few corpses as guards who had been beheaded by them, and then slowly opened the city gate. After the city gate was opened, Tang Bu strode out, looked around, and then gave the guards around him a wink.

The guard understood, then took out a pair of bows and arrows, asked someone to ignite the arrows, and then shot into the sky.

Zhang Long, who was hiding outside the city, saw the signal and hurriedly led people up. After seeing Tang Bu, he asked anxiously, "Mr. Tang, how is it?"

Tang Bu smiled and replied: "Don't worry, general, everything is going smoothly. The city gate guards have been beheaded and killed by villains, and the city gate has been opened. In addition, all the thieves and bandits in the city have been killed by my father and all the leaders in the city. The patriarch of the family invited him to a banquet, and he is probably already very drunk at this moment."

"Okay!" Zhang Long was overjoyed when he heard the words, and then said to the master behind him: "Send the order, the whole army will enter the city!"

Soon, Zhang Long led the army into the city, and when the whole army entered the city, Tang Bu said to Zhang Long again: "General Zhang, there seems to be something wrong in front, why don't you let the villain lead people up to see what's going on?" What's going on?"

Zhang Long could not tolerate him and nodded, but after Tang Bu led the people forward for a dozen steps, he suddenly turned around and hid in the streets and alleys of the city. There were flames everywhere, and a large number of bows and arrows shot at Zhao Jun, and many Zhao Jun soldiers fell to the ground in response.

"General, there is an ambush in the city. We have been tricked. Tang Yuan and Tang Bu are lying to us. Get out!" Seeing this, the master secretary immediately understood that he and others were deceived by Tang Yuan, Tang Bu and his son. There are already ambushes.

"Ah! Tang Yuan, Tang Bu, you two traitors, don't let this general catch you, or you will be cut into pieces! Withdraw!" Zhang Long said through gritted teeth.

"Kill!" While Zhao Jun was retreating, Xiang Quan led his troops to chase after him. Zhao Jun was ambushed and suffered heavy casualties. Without any obstruction, the soldiers behind could only be strangled.

When Zhang Long came to the city gate, he found that the city gate had been closed. He wanted to ask someone to open the city gate, but before he reached the top of the city gate, there was a demand for arrows to shoot down. After taking the lives of more than a dozen Zhao soldiers, a large number of defenders rushed out from all around to protect the city gate.

Seeing this, Zhang Long saw that the pursuers were coming, so he had no choice but to order a storm to attack the city gate, but it was difficult to advance. Although Zhao Jun had the upper hand in numbers, the person guarding the city gate this time was Guan Bell, and he The ones who lead him personally are naturally the 500 elite Yongping Guards that he brought from Guangling. These [-] people are all carefully selected by Guan Ling in Yongping Guards. They are definitely the best of the elites. How can it be an ordinary place in Zhao State? Can the defenders compare?In addition, the city gate is very narrow, and there is no space for the army to display, which also makes Zhao Jun's superiority in numbers impossible to show at all.

At this time, Xiang Quan, Li Fang, and Dong Ning, who were chasing after them, also led their troops to kill them. Xiang Quan took a step forward and said loudly to Zhang Long, who was in Zhao Jun's formation: "Zhang Long, today you are doomed. If you want to keep your head, get off your horse and surrender, or today will be your memorial day next year!"

"Hmph!" After Zhang Long heard Xiang Quan's shout, although he was very flustered, he still pretended to be calm, and replied disdainfully: "I, Zhang Long, is the descendant of the great Zhao general, a famous family, how can I submit to you and others?" Where are the thieves and bandits? All the officers and men obey the order, and follow this general to kill them!"

"Hmph! I don't know how stubborn you are, kill me!" Xiang Quan sneered when he saw that Zhang Long was so ignorant of flattery.

When the two armies were fighting, Zhao Jun, who was the weakest on the battlefield, said to Zhang Long at this time: "General, the city is narrow, which is not conducive to our army's display. This is not the way to go. The subordinates think that the person who talked to the general just now is a bandit." As the saying goes, the king is the first to capture the thief, as long as we can capture this person, we will be able to leave the city smoothly." After finishing speaking, the chief secretary pointed in Xiang Quan's direction.

Hearing this, Zhang Long suddenly realized, and quickly commanded the army to kill Xiang Quan. The soldiers and horses around Xiang Quan were not the five hundred elites under Guan Ling's command. The biggest reason why he was able to chase Zhao Jun before was that Zhao Jun didn't have the heart to fight them, but now that he was thinking, he could barely resist Zhao Jun's offensive.

Seeing this, Guan Ling at the city gate knew that Zhang Long was planning to capture the thief first and capture the king first, and wanted to capture Xiang Quan directly, so he raised his sword and rode out to kill Zhang Long in the formation, capturing the thief To capture the king first, coincidentally, he also had this idea.

Guan Ling is the fierce general of Yongping Guard who is second only to Guan Yu. I know that Guan Yu once said that at Guan Ling's age, he is far inferior. Guan Ling, who is not yet [-] years old, has obviously not reached the peak status, but it is enough to deal with these small miscellaneous fish.

I saw Guan Ling rushing into Zhao Jun's formation with a big knife, and any Zhao soldiers who wanted to stop them were easily dealt with by him like cutting melons and vegetables. Come forward.

Seeing Guan Ling who was unstoppable, Zhang Long was shocked, and quickly shouted: "Stop him! Quickly, General Ben, stop him!"

But all the Zhao soldiers were already stupefied by Guan Ling's heroic performance, and did not make any useful resistance at all. Soon Guan Ling raised his knife and killed Zhang Long. Zhang Long went into battle in desperation, but Facts have proved that the ideal is very full, but the reality is very skinny. Zhang Ting, who thought he could block it, was cut off after only five moves by Guan Ling. After beheading Zhang Long, Guan Ling immediately killed him. The master at the side caught him, and then shouted loudly: "Listen, Zhao Jun! Zhang Long is dead, you are defeated, if you don't want to die, quickly put down your weapons and surrender, otherwise you will be killed without mercy!"

After hearing Guan Ling's words, Zhao Jun, who was struggling to fight, all looked at where Zhang Ting was, and found that Zhang Ting was not there, and the master book was also held in Guan Ling's hands. He didn't know his life or death, and his morale was completely lost , put down their weapons and surrendered.

Zhao Jun gave up resisting, which made Xiang Quan behind him heave a sigh of relief. There was no way, Zhao Jun's counterattack was really too fierce, and he almost couldn't bear it. Fortunately, Guan Ling beheaded Zhang Long in time, otherwise the consequences Unbelievable.

Soon, Guan Ling brought the master book to Xiang Quan, who knew that as soon as Guan Ling let go, the master knelt down in front of Xiang Quan, crying, "General, please forgive me!"

"General Xiang, I think this person has been with Zhang Long, and he must be a relatively important figure in the Zhao army, so I don't know how to deal with him if he is captured alive?" Guan Ling said to Xiang Quan.

"I don't know what Fan Junshi thinks?" Xiang Quan asked Fan Yang.

However, Fan Yang did not answer, but looked at the master who was kneeling on the ground in front of him, and asked, "What is your name? What is your position in the Zhao army?"

The chief book replied: "The villain's name is Zhang San, and he is the chief book of Zhao Jun's army. Please spare your life, General!"

"Hehe, it's not hard to spare your life, but it depends on whether you cooperate or not!" Fan Yang said with a smile.

"Cooperate! The villain must cooperate. Whatever the general says, the villain will do!" Zhang San responded quickly when he heard that he had a chance to survive.

Then Fan Yang said to Xiang Quan: "General Xiang, since this person is the chief of Zhang Long's army, I think he knows the defense of Pengcheng area very well. Our army will also need to attack Pengcheng in the future. Why don't we save his life for the time being. Attacking Pengcheng would also be useful."

Xiang Quan nodded, and then said to Zhang San: "It's okay to spare your life, but you have to tell Pengcheng's soldiers and horses in detail. If there is any concealment or mistake, I will immediately kill you." Take it down!"

"Don't worry, general! The villain will definitely not hide anything!" Zhang San responded quickly.

Then Xiang Quan asked someone to take Zhang San down. At this time, Tang Bu, who had been hiding for a long time, came out and said to Xiang Quan: "Congratulations to General Xiang, you have defeated the Zhao army and solved the crisis in Wu County!"

"Hehe, thanks to Mr. Tang and your father's help, this place is too chaotic. Why don't Mr. Tang go back earlier and tell your father that I will come to the mansion tomorrow morning to thank Mr. Tang and Mr. Tang in person!" Quan said.

Tang Bu nodded, it was so bloody here, he really didn't want to stay for a long time, so he said: "Forget it, that villain will wait for General Xiang at home tomorrow, take your leave!" After saying that, he took his people and left.

After Tang Bu left, Xiang Quan had people step up to clean up the battlefield, and arranged for people to guard the Zhao Jun prisoners.
