Qinglong Three Kingdoms

Chapter 143 Lang Yuan leads the troops across Zhongling
In fact, there is no official statement about Poyang County and Luling County. The land of Poyang and Luling is also part of Yuzhang County. It will be in the Eastern Wu period that Panyang County will be separated from Yuzhang County.

In this way, Ruo Rong controlled Yuzhang, which actually included the scope of Poyang and Luling.

However, what Ruo Rong did in Yuzhang has also spread to Poyang, so the people of Poyang are also somewhat repelled by Ruo Rong, faintly independent and have the meaning of resisting Ruo Rong independently.

Although Ruo Rong also intends to infiltrate Poyang, he has no intention of using force to seize several counties around Poyang Lake. The main reason is to slowly erode the folk beliefs in Poyang with Buddhism, or send people to Panyang. In the territory, they pretended to be thieves and robbed the homes of the rich and wealthy to enrich the money and food they needed.

In fact, it was also because Poyang was close to Danyang, and Ruo Rong worried that if he moved too much, he would attract Liu Yao's encirclement and suppression.

As for the counties that Ruo Rong has not actually controlled in Yuzhang County, apart from a few counties on Panyang’s side, the other counties located in the west of Yuzhang near Jingzhou, such as Ai County, Yangle, and Yichun, control these counties. The local wealthy family seems to have some relationship with Jingzhou, and may have the secret support of Jingzhou Liu Biao.

Judging from the map, besides Poyang Lake and Yuzhang River, Yuzhang City is also close to a Zhongling Mountain Range whose main body is located in Poyang.

According to Zhu Wei's idea, he can reach the Zhongling Mountains through Poyang, and then find a mountain road in the Zhongling Mountains to the southeast of Yuzhang City, and then launch a sneak attack on Yuzhang City.

In fact, before Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan discussed what kind of tactics they could use when officially attacking Yuzhang.

Wang Yuyan proposed the tactic of taking the Yuzhang River from Poyang Lake and going straight to Yuzhang City, which can reduce the time for marching and walking, and also allow the army to rest on the boat.

It’s just that we need to collect some large ships to transport troops. It is likely that Zhu Wei will need to get a water army out, and Ze Rong can also intercept Zhu Wei’s army on the Yuzhang River. If the two sides fight by water, Zhu Wei is not sure. can win.

There is another tactic, which is to let Zhu Wei's army bypass the Zhongling Mountains from Poyang County to the south of Yuzhang City, so that it may be able to avoid the defense line deployed by Ruo Rong in the northeast.

At the same time, Zhu Wei could also contact other local county forces in Yuzhang County who opposed Ruo Rong, and attacked Ruo Rong to control the territory step by step, and finally stormed Yuzhang City.

Of course, these two tactics are actually meant to fight head-on, but they didn't use other ideas. At most, they considered contacting the forces in Yuzhang that opposed Ruo Rong to fight together.

As for attacking Yuzhang City through the Zhongling Mountains, Zhu Wei and Wang Yuyan hadn't entered into the tactical considerations before. Marching in the mountains was not an easy task after all.

And Zhu Wei is not familiar with the situation in the Zhongling Mountains. There are also mountain people living in the Zhongling Mountains. Zhu Wei's army entering the mountains may conflict with the mountain people in the mountains.

It would be better to bypass the Zhongling Mountains to avoid unexpected twists and turns.

But now with Zu Lang who is familiar with mountain warfare, Zhu Wei can really use Zu Lang's mountain soldiers to cross the Zhongling Mountains to attack Yuzhang City, so that Yuzhang may be settled in one fell swoop.

However, this still needs to listen to Zu Lang's opinion, but this seems to require Zu Lang's efforts again.

Zhu Wei looked at the map and also thought about the possibility of a sneak attack on Yuzhang City. If he really wanted to cross the Zhongling Mountains, it would be best to use Zu Lang's mountain crossing troops. In this way, if Zu Lang personally led the troops, the chance of winning would be bigger.

But thinking of his promise just now, Zhu Wei's expression really became a little embarrassed.

Over there, Zu Lang didn't think much about it, looked at the Zhongling Mountains on the map, thought for a while, and said, "Lang also knows that there are cottages in this Zhongling, and I heard that there are more than ten thousand people, but It seems that the people in Zhongling seldom go out to raid the mountains. There should be some land in the mountains that can be reclaimed and planted, but the terrain is more gentle than the mountains in Jing County where Lang is. My lord, Lang is willing to lead the army across Zhongling to raid Henan. Zhang! As for the matter of Jing County, it can be done after Yuzhang is defeated! Lang already knows the heart of the lord, but the matter of Yuzhang is more important, how can he be mistaken because of him!"

"This……"

After hearing Zu Lang's words, Zhu Wei looked at Wang Yuyan with a little bit of embarrassment.

Wang Yuyan was thinking about possible strategies in her heart. Now after listening to Zu Lang's words, Wang Yuyan smiled slightly and said, "My lord, Zu Lang's heart is sincere. If that's the case, why should he care about what he just said! Zu Lang knows My lord's heart, my lord also knows my ancestor's heart. It is really a blessing for us to know each other like this!"

"That's right, my lord, what Zu Lang just said just now doesn't mean that he will return to Jing County immediately. As long as the lord believes in Lang, Nalang will first make great contributions to the lord, and then go back to Jing County to persuade the people in the mountains, so he will have the confidence, isn't it?" It’s not better! Besides, it’s not Zu Lang boasting, leading troops to march in the mountains, apart from Zu Lang, I’m afraid there is no one else in the lord’s tent who can compare with Lang, so please agree!”

Zu Lang bowed directly to Zhu Wei, showing his sincerity. Obviously, Zhu Wei did not agree, so he did not get up.

"Okay, okay! Zulang Wei De is indeed a blessing from heaven. If he can win Yuzhang this time, Zulang will be the first!"

Seeing Zu Lang's sincerity, Zhu Wei naturally stepped forward and stretched out his hand to support Zu Lang, took Zu Lang's hand with one hand, and spoke to Wang Yuyan, Mu Lan, Pang Yan, Ling Cao and Zu Lang's subordinates.

"Well, since that's the case, Yu has a plan in mind, and it may be successful, my lord, we can do this and that, what do you guys think!"

Seeing that Zhu Wei had let go of the fetters in his heart, Wang Yuyan also came up with a complete strategy to attack Yuzhang in his mind, so he explained it to Zhu Wei and others.

Zhu Wei nodded when he heard this. It was Wang Yuyan whose intelligence reached 97. In such a short time, he had already thought of a complete set of tactics for sneak attack on Yuzhang City. This was much better than the flash of idea in Zhu Wei's mind before. As feasible a lot.

Now Wang Yuyan's sneak attack plan on Yuzhang City has assigned missions to Zhu Wei, Zu Lang, Pang Yan, Mu Lan, Ling Cao, and even Tai Shi Ci who stayed outside Lingyang County to train troops.

This time to attack Yuzhang, Zhu Wei naturally had to mobilize his entire army.

Even the remaining more than 4000 mountain Yue soldiers on Zulang's side had to select most of them for use. Except for those who were injured on the previous battlefield, the others could be used on the battlefield to attack Yuzhang.

But after hearing Wang Yuyan's arrangement, Zu Lang realized that his defeat this time was really normal, and the actions of these old men who fought the war based on their experience really couldn't compare with the war strategy planned by a military adviser like Wang Yuyan.

Zu Lang looked at Wang Yuyan with a bit of fear in his eyes. An opponent with a military adviser is too scary, he can completely figure out people's hearts, and then he seems to treat everyone as pawns in a few words.

Of course, with Wang Yuyan's plan to attack Yuzhang, the atmosphere of the following banquet will be much more relaxed.

The people stopped talking about other things, and they mainly focused on eating and drinking. Among them, Pang Yan and Ling Cao specially found Zu Lang and Zu Lang's eight commanders to fight for wine, and gave Zu Lang a chance to drink wine. Win back face on the field.

Unfortunately, Zu Lang and his eight commanders failed to win in the end. Almost everyone was drunk, except for Pang Yan, who was still sober.

However, after this banquet, Zu Lang integrated into the Zhu Wei Group and no longer regarded himself as an outsider...
