The Three Kingdoms become stronger when they get treasures

Chapter 329 Lu Xun's Choice
Zhang Wu asked Liao Li to leave the seal of the governor of Jiangdong here. The meaning is self-evident. This is telling Lu Xun that as long as what you do satisfies Zhang Wu, you will be at least at the level of the governor of Jiangdong in the future. It depends on you Lu Xun How to choose.

Lu Xun didn't expect Zhang Wu to attach so much importance to him. Although he was confident in himself that he would not lose to anyone in the world, after all, he is not famous now, not to mention in the whole world, even in Jiangdong, where Gu Shao and Lu Xun His achievements are also more famous than him.

Zhang Wu actually directly promised him a position as the governor of Jiangdong, and said that he was comparable to Zhou Yu, which shocked Lu Xun.But in Zhang Wu's point of view, let alone a Jiangdong governor, if Zhang Wu can eventually rule the world, with Lu Xun's talents, he will have no problem being the general of the country's soldiers and horses.

As for how to choose, when He Qi was about to send troops to rescue Sun Quan, Lu Xun suddenly suggested: "General He, there are only less than [-] troops in the city, of which less than [-] are elite soldiers. If the general leads troops out of the city, the guards in Qiantang County If the Jingzhou army takes the opportunity to attack, how will we defend?"

He Qi said: "Now the main force of the Jingzhou army is gathered outside Wu County, and they don't care about our Kuaiji County. If I suddenly send troops, I will definitely not know the strength of our army. Furthermore, I will lead [-] soldiers and leave [-] soldiers behind." It is enough to defend the city."

Lu Xun added: "According to the scouts, General Zhao Yun of Jingzhou is stationed in Youquan County with [-] soldiers, including [-] cavalry. If the general leads fewer troops, it will be difficult for him to pass. General, why not bring more soldiers and horses?" , the city will recruit more strong and brave soldiers as suspicious soldiers."

"This plan is very good. After I leave, Boyan must guard the city and take precautions."

"This subordinate takes orders. However, General He, why don't you let me lead the troops to rescue the lord, and the general will stay and defend the city."

"No need, life and death are unpredictable. Boyan guards Kuaiji well. In case Wu County falls, I will try my best to accommodate my lord and retreat to Kuaiji."

"Don't worry, the general, take care of the general!"

In Lu Xun's plan, it doesn't matter whether He Qi asks him to lead troops to rescue Sun Quan or let him stay behind.If he is asked to send troops, he will take away the main force in Qiantang County, and then find an excuse to stop halfway, waiting for the end of the war in Wu County.At that time, Qiantang County will be empty of troops, and He Qi will definitely not be able to hold it.

If Lu Xun is allowed to stay behind, he will just leave his direct troops behind, and then surrender the city directly after taking control of Qiantang County.

So He Qi ordered [-] soldiers and horses overnight, and personally led them to rescue Sun Quan, leaving Lu Xun to guard Qiantang.

After He Qi left, Lu Xun was the highest-ranking general, and the more than 2000 defenders who stayed in the city were basically Lu Xun's direct descendants. Now the entire Qiantang County and even Kuaiji County were under Lu Xun's hands.

Lu Xun summoned a guard with a wave of his hand, handed him a cylindrical object, and asked him to go to the north city wall of Qiantang County, point one end to the sky, and then ignite a fuse on the other end.

This guard was from the Lu clan and was absolutely loyal to the Lu family, so he followed Lu Xun's orders.

Not long after, a dazzling red light suddenly rose into the sky, and it was extremely gorgeous in the night, just like modern fireworks.

That was the signal sent by Lu Xun to the spies of the Jingzhou Army outside the city, and Zhao Yun would know the current situation in Kuaiji County soon.

He Qi took advantage of the night to lead his troops to set off, and hurried all the way, intending to detour through Wucheng and then march along Taihu Lake to the south of Wu County, and then launch a surprise attack to destroy the earth wall to the south to resolve the crisis in Wu County.

As a result, the army had not yet reached Wucheng, but was suddenly ambushed, and countless arrows were shot from a dense forest in front of them, shooting down the unsuspecting Jiangdong army one after another.

He Qi was shocked, and hurriedly gathered his soldiers to form a defensive formation, but suddenly a cavalry rushed out from behind the hill on the right. The leader was a general with a white horse and silver helmet, holding a long spear, and shouted loudly: "Changshan Zhao Zilong is here!"

The soldiers of the Jiangdong army were in chaos, and it would be fatal to be attacked by cavalry on such a flat ground. Jiangdong soldiers are naturally afraid of cavalry!
He Qi has been fighting for many years, of course he knows that under the cavalry raid, fleeing is the worst choice, because two legs can't run with four legs, and under the pursuit of the cavalry, his [-] troops will be chopped down one by one by the cavalry Lose your head.

But there was an ambush in front, and cavalry on the right. Many of He Qi's [-] soldiers were newly recruited, and the entire formation was disrupted in a panic. Without a strict formation, how could the infantry compete with the cavalry!
Under such circumstances, He Qi had no choice but to bring his elite troops to meet Zhao Yun. As long as he could stop the opponent's cavalry and buy time for the soldiers behind to line up, there was still hope.

But He Qi underestimated Zhao Yun's strength and overestimated his own force.

He Qi, as a famous Jiangdong general, was also a person who had led troops to fight since the time of Sun Ce, and even Sun Ce valued him a lot.However, He Qi's achievements were mostly bandits and rebellions, and most of the defeated were Shanyue tribes.Even after Sun Quan took over, He Qi became the commander-in-chief of suppressing the bandits, and subdued some bandits and Shanyue rebels in the rear.

Therefore, He Qi seldom participated in the war with Cao Jun and Jingzhou Army, and he only heard about Cao Cao and Zhang Wu's generals, but never saw them.

He Qi is a relatively comprehensive general who can manage both the army and the government. He is wise enough to resist the crowd and brave enough to defeat the enemy.But a more comprehensive general also means that none of them are outstanding. In terms of force, He Qi is at most a second-rate general, and his force value is about [-].

As for Zhao Yun's force, needless to say, after less than three rounds of fighting with He Qi, he drew a gun on He Qi's waist, knocked him off his horse, and captured him alive.

The commander was captured, the formation was disrupted by the cavalry, densely packed Jingzhou soldiers rushed out from the dense forest ahead, and Jiangdong soldiers knelt down and surrendered one after another.

Afterwards, Zhao Yun escorted the captives and led the army back to Youquan County. As for Lu Xun and Kuaiji County, it must wait for Zhang Wu to come. I have done enough in the battle to destroy Wu. I can’t be greedy for credit anymore. to colleagues.

At the same time, among the Jingzhou Army outside Wu County, Guan Yu also issued the final order.

With the excavation of the embankment of Taihu Lake, the flood rushed to the south and east of the low-lying Wu County, and was blocked by the two earthen walls. The flood accumulated into a large lake in the south and east of Wu County. The surface of the lake gradually became flush with the city wall of Wu County, and then overflowed the city wall and poured into the city.

The [-] soldiers of the Jingzhou army who had been on the boat for a long time rushed towards the head of Wu County under the leadership of generals such as Guan Yu, Huang Zhong, Guan Ping, Fu Xun, Kou Feng, Liao Hua, and Zhou Cang.

The [-] professional Jingzhou navy rushed to the front. They shot down the Jiangdong soldiers who were still guarding the city wall while rowing, and then occupied the top of the wall and killed them inside the city.

When the Jiangdong soldiers saw the flood flooding the city and the Jingzhou army came to attack by boat, their morale was completely lost. The newly recruited soldiers fled to the city one after another, and Zhou Tai couldn't stop them.

Seeing that the city wall could no longer be defended, Han Dang and Zhou Tai had to lead [-] elite soldiers to retreat to the Marquis of Wu's Mansion, fighting to the death with the Jingzhou army.
