Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 121 Capture Ruyang
When the Battle of Gepo was in full swing, the battle situation in northern Runan also began to undergo earth-shattering changes.

on the official road.

A group of soldiers and horses who were marching were slowly moving towards the northeast. They were heading towards Ruyang City. Ruyang City was the place where Huang Shao, commander of Huangjinqu, who came from Yingchuan and crossed Runan, stationed troops.

It was rumored that after Huang Shao repelled the Yingchuan army, he went all the way to the north, and Ruyang became his food supply place.

"Where have we been?"

Mu Jing raised his head, looked at the golden crow falling to the west, reined in his horse, and asked left and right.

"Report to Marshal Shaoqu, now he has entered the south of Zhengqiang County!"

"How far is it from Ruyang?"

"Less than eighty miles!"

"Tan Zong!"

"Here!" A young man quickly rode forward.

"How many Yellow Turbans are stationed in Qiang City?"

"According to the news, there should be only about [-]!" Tan Zongdao: "However, Zheng Qiang is very close to Ruyang, the nearest place is less than [-] miles away, and the cavalry can arrive in a day. Once there is a fight, Ruyang's army will rush to it!"

"Luo Ying!"

"Here!" Luo Ying, the Marquis of Jingping Camp No. [-], heard the call and rode his horse back.

Mu Jing said, "We won't go into the city tonight, so we'll find a place to camp, and we'll find a way to clear our eyes and tongues from the outside, and don't let the news of our march spread out!"

"As ordered!"

Luo Ying nodded and obeyed.

"Chen arrives!"

"exist!"

It’s hard to be surprised by Chen Dao’s recent feelings. Mu Jing seems to be special to him. When discussing military strategies, he will be the first to call him by name, and he will also be the first to treat him preferentially when he calls out troops. This kind of preferential treatment makes him a little panic.

"You lead the trilogy immediately, rush to Ruyang with the vanguard army, and find out the details of Ruyang!"

Mu Jing said in a deep voice.

He originally led the Jingping Battalion to sweep away the county towns west of Runan. Although all the generals under his command were yellow turban generals, after a certain period of time, they already had [-] to [-]% combat effectiveness, so their actions were ugly. In a short period of time, they had already won As long as he is given another month to decide the two cities of Yingcheng and Xiping, he can go south to the four or five cities in the west where there are no troops.

They already had enough food and grass, and they just had to wait for work, escort the northern wing of the Gepo battlefield, and wait for the result of the Gepo battlefield.

But Tan Zong came back with some news, which made him unable to sit still.

All the Yellow Turban soldiers and horses in Ruyang City had rushed to the northern battlefield. Yingchuan Army actually brought in foreign aid and pulled Xuzhou Army into the battlefield.

The empty Ruyang City is a big piece of fat for Mu Jing.

Eating it in one bite would cut off Huang Shao's food supply. If he succeeded, even if he couldn't wipe out Huang Shao's troops, it would be enough to force Huang Shao to withdraw from the Ruyang battlefield, so that the subsequent battles could be fought more smoothly.

So with a heartbeat, Mujing gathered all the soldiers and horses of Jingping Camp

"As ordered!"

Chen Dao took the lead, turned his horse's head, and led all the soldiers of Wuqu to continue marching.

Under Luo Ying's support, the rest of the Jingping camp set up camp on a relatively flat hill. They were going to rest for the night, and they were on their way tomorrow morning. After all, they had already traveled for a day. tired.

…………

In the dead of night, on the hills, there were only a few brazier lights flickering. Under the firelight, the soldiers on patrol were stepping on guard, while the rest of the soldiers were sleeping with their backs to their backs.

The starry sky looked bright and full of stars tonight, and there was no sign of rain, so they didn't set up their tents. After all, it took too much time to set up military tents. They just rested overnight, and it would take too much time to install and dismantle them.

There are only certain simple military tents in the entire military camp, and this is the tent of the chief general Mu Jing.

In the tent, the oil lamp was lit, and under the oil lamp, Mu Jing was crouching in front of a marching map, carefully looking at it again and again. If you don’t lead troops, you don’t know how hard it is to lead troops. Thousands of soldiers are under your command, and you make your own decision. It can kill countless people, and that kind of pressure and sense of responsibility made him have to be cautious and cautious.

"What are you looking at?" Zhang Ning opened the door curtain, walked in, and asked.

"I'm watching the deduction battle situation!"

Mujing replied.

"Deduce the battle situation?" Zhang Ning's beautiful eyes were shining, looking at Mu Jing's serious face, he said, "Do you think there is something wrong with the recent changes in the battle situation?"

"We have the odds of winning, there's nothing wrong with it!"

Mu Jing shook his head, and said analytically: "Now the Yellow Turban Army in the north is encircled by the Yingchuan Army and Xuzhou Army. Whether it is Huang Shao's Department or He Man's Department, it may be difficult to escape. In the south, Shangcai is surrounded. After being attacked by force, they can't hold back for long, and the Runan Yellow Turban will be destroyed!"

"Then you are still so sad?"

"Your Highness, don't you think the current situation is too smooth for our officers and soldiers?"

Mu Jing said: "You and I are both the sons of the Yellow Turbans. We know that the Yellow Turban Army can't fight hard battles, but they are also quite resilient, especially after experiencing a defeat. One is fuel-efficient lamps, if they don’t even have a little bit of confidence, how dare they revolt again!”

The Yellow Turban Army is not as bad as it is said in history. On the battlefield of cold weapons, young and middle-aged men, as long as they have been on the battlefield and undergo bloody baptism, they will soon become an elite veteran.

There are not many veterans among the Yellow Turban Army. In the past, Yingchuan and Nanyang were the hardest-hit areas for the Yellow Turbans. Ten of them were young and strong, and seven were soldiers of the Yellow Turbans. After the defeat of the Yellow Turbans, the court pursued them fiercely. He escaped and took refuge in Runan Yellow Turban.

That's why there is now an uprising of the Yellow Turbans in Runan.

These forces must not be underestimated.

"You suspect that there is fraud in it!"

Zhang Ning thought for a while, and said: "Could it be that you think too much? The Yellow Turbans in Runan didn't have much combat power. In the past, the Yellow Turbans rebelled, but Runan was only a partial battlefield, and even the officers and soldiers didn't go south. How can the Yellow Turbans here have some strength?" What a fighting power!"

"I hope I'm thinking too much!"

Mujing smiled wryly.

He didn't think too much, but felt that something was wrong with history. Although there were not many descriptions of the Yellow Turbans in Runan in history, it was only recorded that in the fifth year of Zhongping, the Yellow Turban Army revolted in Gepo and then swept Runan. One of the school lieutenants led the men and women of the army to quell the chaos, but returned in a complete defeat.

Then there is not much record.

The records that appeared later said that several Huangjin Qushuai had defected to Liu Bei, and then said that Cao Cao sent troops to calm down the soldiers and horses of the Yellow Turban in Runan.

Based on these histories, it shows that the Runan Yellow Turban is not so easy.

Of course, Mu Jing also knows that when he appears in this world, he cannot fully believe in history. The so-called history can only be used as a reference, after all, the effect of butterflies cannot be underestimated.

……

The next day, the military flag of the black mandala was flying in the wind, and the army continued on its way.

After a day and night of traveling, it was not until the morning of the third day that Mujing's Jingping camp entered the Ruyang city.

"Where's Chen Dao's vanguard part?" Mu Jing walked all the way, but he didn't find Chen Dao's vanguard to support him, which made him feel a little uneasy.

"I haven't found it yet!"

A dozen or so scouts on the left and right shook their heads, expressing that they hadn't found any trace of Chen Daobuqu.

"Didn't find it?"

Mu Jing tightened the reins, his face turned cold: "Tan Zong!"

"Young Qu is handsome!"

"Immediately ask your people to find Chen Dao's Pioneer Part!"

"Keep the change, please!"

Tan Zong pointed to the front of the city, and said: "Shao Qushuai, they should be in the city now!"

"In the city?"

At this time, the generals saw clearly a battle flag flying above the city.

Black mandala.

This is the flag of Jingping Battalion.

"This kid took Ruyang City?"

Mu Jing was a little surprised: "No way!"

Chen Dao's trilogy is the most powerful among the left and right trilogy, with more than 800 soldiers, but Ruyang, as Huang Shao's food storage place, even if the army is empty, there should be at least a thousand soldiers guarding it. .

How did he capture Ruyang City?
Tatata! ! ! !

At this time, the gate of the city was opened, and more than ten cavalry came towards them, the leader of which was the young soldier Marquis Chen Dao.

He came in front of Mujing, jumped off his horse, and cupped his hands to report: "The last general, Chen Dao, fulfilled his mission. He has already captured Ruyang City, and I invite Commander Shaoqu to come to the city for inspection!"

"Enter the city!"

When Mu Jing heard this, he was a bit shocked, but he didn't doubt it, and immediately ordered the army to enter the city.
