The Jagged Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 620 The Army Crosses the River ([-])

Lu Xun thought about the map himself.He has seen the Danxia landforms from Liling to Yichun to Liuyang countless times. Even though he has printed them all in his mind, his eyes are still fixed on the map, as if There are countless gold and silver treasures on it, which are generally attractive.

When it was nightfall, Lu Xun had almost drawn up a battle plan against Gai Meng's cavalry in his mind.

Lu Xun weighed all the troops he could use now, and found that it was absolutely impossible to completely defeat Gai Meng's large cavalry team and encircle and wipe them out.After all, the cavalry's assault ability is definitely not what ordinary infantry can do.

Although Lu Dai's death-death troops were all wearing armor, they were not as heavy armored as the Lujiang Shangjia Army, and it was impossible for them to collide head-on with the cavalry.

Therefore, the reality is like that of Lu Xun, who did not expect to eat Gai Meng's cavalry in Yichun.

In fact, in terms of Lu Xun's current battle, the troops are already stretched, so there is no need to continue to spend troops, and must destroy Gai Meng's cavalry.As long as he blocked Gai Meng's cavalry for a period of time, making the cavalry in a dilemma, it was enough to send a clear signal to Liu Adou and Zhang Fei:

Although you have seen through all of my Lu Boyan's strategic arrangements before, it's not that I, Lu Boyan, did not recruit later.Now Gai Meng's cavalry team has been dragged in place by me, unable to detour to Liu Yang's rear.Gai Meng's surprise attack strategy has been exposed in broad daylight.Then, it's almost time for Gai Meng's army to retreat, otherwise the army mobilized from behind Lu Xun will definitely surround and wipe them out near Yichun!
Lu Xun's thoughts were mostly based on scaring.However, he felt that Gai Meng's cavalry team was too precious, and neither Liu Adou nor Zhang Fei could let them take risks easily.Therefore, the possibility of Liu Adou transferring him back is actually very high.

Even if Liu Adou went crazy and let Gai Meng march forward to fight his army to death, Lu Xun felt that he would not be at a disadvantage.

Because the topography of Yichun is similar to that of Liling.Although there are wide roads here, it is also an area with many rivers and hills.He can use the terrain to defend.

After thinking about this, Lu Xun knew that the pressure on Wu Chang and Liu Yang's city defense would become greater and greater in the days to come.Therefore, he immediately sent someone to send orders to Zhu Ran and Xu Sheng.Especially Zhu Ran's Wuchang City, once it becomes impossible to defend, he can lead his troops to retreat into Liuyang City and join forces with Xu Sheng.

Although Zhang Bao in Liuyang City has the most troops and siege equipment, and is the most active in siege, in Lu Xun's view, Zhang Bao's army has been seen through by Lu Xun-Zhang Bao's attack is positive on the surface, but in fact it is a bluff , I just want to put pressure on myself, attract my full attention, and create favorable conditions for Gai Meng's cavalry to raid Liu Yang's rear.

Therefore, Lu Xun believed very confidently that letting Zhu Ran enter Liuyang City was actually much safer than staying in Wuchang City.

And on the other hand, since his overall strategy has been penetrated by the enemy, there is no need to continue to implement the original plan, and it is okay for Wu Changcheng to give up on his own initiative.

It's just that Liu Yangcheng's current status has also changed immediately, from relatively unimportant to very important.This city is the bridgehead to intercept the enemy's entry into Yuzhang County, and it is absolutely impossible to lose it now.

In the middle of the night that day, the veteran general Lu Dai's [-] death-death troops finally marched outside Yichun City.

After Lu Xun got the news, he couldn't help but be overjoyed. Reinforcement is what he needs most now.Lu Xun didn't even think about it, and immediately mounted his horse and rushed out of the city to meet Lu Dai in person.

Lu Dai is 64 years old, although his official position has not been particularly high until now.But this person lived a long life on his own, and after all the founding generals of Jiangdong died, the officials became bigger and bigger, and finally became a general, and he was posthumously presented to the great Sima after his death.

Lu Dai is relatively short and stocky, with two beards on his face, and a pair of big eyes with piercing eyes.Moreover, this person may really have a smile on his face because he has a big heart and a fat body.This person is really young. In the chaotic era when the average age of men was no more than 40 years old, it is really surprising that Lu Dai's hair and beard are still black at this age.

Although Lu Xun is known as a scholar with no strength, he is actually quite tall.In fact, if Lu Xun was really short in stature, it would be impossible for him to be handsome, and it would be even more impossible for him to be called "Little Zhou Lang".

Therefore, Lu Xun's height is actually about half a head taller than Lu Dai's, but his body is much thinner.

As soon as the two met, Lu Xun went up to Lu Dai and grabbed Lu Dai's hand, and said gratefully, "General Lu, your army arrived just in time."

After many days of fast marching, Lu Dai did not show much fatigue on his face now. He is really old and strong, and his body is probably much better than that of ordinary young people.

Lu Dai smiled and said to Lu Xun, "Don't say that, the governor. It is the duty of the general to obey the orders of the governor. Besides, Luling County is just next door to Yuzhang County, so it's not hard work." Not hard."

Seeing that Lu Dai is so humble, he is exactly the same as the rumors, and he is a very easy-going person.At this time, Lu Xun also let go of his frown, and smiled.

Then, Lu Xun sent an order to let Lu Dai's troops enter Yichun City first to repair.Only then did Lu Xun bring Lu Xun to his mansion, and he was ready for a banquet for Lu Dai to wash away the dust.

On the way, Lu Dai asked Lu Xun about his son Lu Kai's current situation in Puqi City.The heart of loving the child is fully revealed at this moment.

Lu Xun was not worried about Pu Qi's current situation.

For one thing, he has already received news that Zhang Fei just sent some troops to attack Puqi northward.It seems that Zhang Fei has now focused the army's offensive on Wuchang City.That's why Lu Xun sent someone to urgently send an order to Zhu Ran just now, telling him that if there is a crisis in Wuchang City, he doesn't have to worry about it too much, and just retreat to Liuyang City to join Xu Sheng's army.

Second, today's Puqi is defended by the army led by Han Dang.Although Han Dang's army was a defeated army, as the defeated troops gradually gathered and returned, together with Lu Kai's army, there were at least 4000 people.It is definitely possible to use it to guard Puqi.What's more, Jiangxia County was originally Han Dang's territory, so it was impossible for him not to recruit troops from Jiangxia County and go south into Puqi.

Therefore, Lu Xun introduced the situation to Lu Dai in detail, and asked Lu Dai not to worry about Lu Kai's safety now.

Lu Dai still believed that Lu Xun would not lie to him, so he nodded in relief, and his worries eased a lot.
