From refugee NPC to mythical general

Chapter 170 Take the initiative to attack
The spies of the Dameng Dynasty were also not idle. After Zhuge Jin fled from the Wu Dynasty and entered Youzhou, he was discovered by the spies of the Dameng Dynasty at the first moment.

And reported the news to Zhuge Liang.

In the meeting hall of the Dameng Dynasty.

"The defection of a fifth-rate general is enough to show that there are serious divisions within the other side. This is undoubtedly a huge good thing for us." Jiang Wei said with a smile on his face.

As one side weakens, I gain. In recent times, the Dameng Dynasty has been rapidly developing its strength. Now the economy of the Dameng Dynasty is developing rapidly, food and grass are sufficient, and the military strength has grown from less than 30,000 to more than 40,000.

During this period, the Wu Dynasty was unable to further develop its military due to the sluggish economy. Coupled with the internal turmoil, they were overwhelmed and the internal situation was in chaos.

Jiang Wei smiled and said, "I think we can now try to attack their border towns."

Zhang Liao and Zhuge Liang were ready to fight. They had been on the passive defense before, which had made them very frustrated. Now that they heard Mr. Jiang say that they could take the initiative to attack, how could they not be excited?

"it is good!"

Zhang Liao laughed and asked, "When will the attack begin?"

Jiang Wei smiled and said, "Anytime."

"There is only one condition. We must fight quickly and decisively, not giving the other side any chances. We must completely defeat the Wu Dynasty in one fell swoop. Once we give them a chance to catch their breath and recover, it won't be that we can't beat them, but it will become more difficult for us to attack them in the future."

"So this time, we must completely take down the Wu Dynasty no matter what."

Zhang Liao said excitedly: "Okay!"

"General Zhuge, when are we going to do it?"

Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "We will attack tomorrow!"

That night, Zhuge Liang, Zhang Liao, Jiang Wei and their lord Ning Mengya discussed matters in the conference room until late at night.

All of them were planning the military invasion of the Wu Dynasty.

Early on the second day, Zhuge Liang and Zhang Liao led 20,000 troops, with four generals, Le Jin, Gan Ning, Guan Ping and Gao Shun, as vanguard officers. The remaining generals continued to guard in Daming Town. The 20,000 troops began to march towards the territory of the Wu Dynasty.

The first town on the border of the Wu Dynasty was Shihu Town, and the commander-in-chief here was the sixth-rate general Wu Anguo.

There are 10,000 troops. It should be enough to deploy them in a town on the border.

But the problem was that the people in Shihu Town were dissatisfied with the rulers, and a small part of the more than 10,000 troops had to be allocated to suppress possible rebellion by the people. In addition, the food for these more than 10,000 troops was not enough, and they had to seize food from the people, which led to deeper and deeper conflicts between the military and the people.

Although Wu Anguo is a master in martial arts, he is not good at governing the place. Now the entire border is a mess. After Zhuge Jin left, advisers such as Kuai Yue have not yet given a specific governance plan. How the border towns are governed depends entirely on the generals themselves.

These military generals are not good at governance. They can fight wars, but they are completely clueless when it comes to governing internal affairs.

A general guarding the city suddenly discovered a large number of enemy troops not far away, and immediately went to report to the commander-in-chief Wu Anguo.

But after searching for a long time, I couldn't find where the coach was.

Zhuge Liang's vanguard troops had already begun to charge the city. The soldiers of Shihu Town had no time to train during this period, and their military discipline was lax. Various problems emerged one after another. Less than half an hour after the battle began, Zhuge Liang's vanguard troops were about to charge the city. At this time, Wu Anguo arrived late and immediately organized his troops to start defending vigorously.

However, when the people inside heard that someone outside had started to attack the city, they actually gathered at the city gate and actively rushed into the soldiers inside the city. They were not afraid of death at all and opened the city gate directly.

"what's the situation?"

When Zhang Liao saw this scene, he was completely stunned. How could the opponent's city gate be opened so easily?
They had been planning how to get to the city gate, but now they didn't even have to think about attacking the city. Zhuge Liang excitedly shouted to Guan Ping's four generals, "Charge in!"

"Go and shout, surrender and you won't be killed!"

"Here!"

Guan Ping, Gao Shun, Gan Ning, and Le Jin mounted their horses and led their troops to charge into the city.

"Those who surrender will not be killed!"

"Surrender quickly!"

Wu Anguo was furious and charged forward with his personal guards. When he saw a soldier who wanted to lay down his weapons, Wu Anguo stabbed the soldier to death with a single shot.

"Kill with me!"

"Damn it! I'm going to kill him!" Zhang Liao was excited and rode his horse towards Wu Anguo.

If this guy surrendered, Zhang Liao would be disappointed. But now, the other party is unwilling to surrender and dares to resist?
Then don’t blame me for not giving you face!

Zhang Liao's martial arts skills were so high that even though Wu Anguo was only a sixth-rate general, he couldn't even last three rounds against Zhang Liao. This was when Zhang Liao gave in to his opponent. Then Zhang Liao used a hook sickle to directly cut off Wu Anguo's head.

You have to know that Zhuge Liang was a fifth-rate general at the time. When he first competed with Zhang Liao, he didn't win a single move. In Zhang Liao's eyes, Wu Anguo was not worthy of attention at all.

After Wu Anguo's death, Shihu Town was in complete chaos. Without the control of a commander, all the soldiers voluntarily laid down their weapons and surrendered.

Zhuge Liang felt it was a pity, as he had originally planned to gain some experience points through this attack. Although he was now a fourth-rate general, his martial arts value was comparable to Zhang Liao's, and even after adding various attributes, his martial arts value was even better than Zhang Liao's.

But after all, he is only a fourth-rate general, and his experience points are very scarce. He had planned to gain more experience points through this siege, but who knew it would be so disappointing.

After taking Shihu Town, Zhuge Liang immediately ordered the army into the city. At the same time, he reorganized the 10,000 troops in Shihu Town and sent them all to the rear of Daming Town to disrupt and reintegrate them.

After all, these soldiers have a certain combat capability and can be pulled out to fight in the future. As long as they are broken up and reorganized, these troops will become the combat capability of Daming Town in the future.

As for the people in the city, Zhuge Liang sent a letter of divorce and returned to the rear. Jiang Wei immediately sent troops to escort food to Shihu Town.

Zhuge Liang immediately distributed the food to the people in the city. These people had already starved to death. After receiving the food, their loyalty to the Dameng Dynasty was self-evident.

The Dameng Dynasty has plenty of food, so sending some food here is harmless, and it can also conquer the people on the border of the Dameng Dynasty. Maybe after these people spread the word, it will be easier for them to attack the next town.

And the actual situation happened just as Zhuge Liang predicted. When Zhuge Liang continued to attack Huangsu Town, which was 20 miles north of Shihu Town, with the help of the people and in the absence of military generals to guard it, they captured it in just one hour.

The speed is astonishing!
