Report to Xiang Gong, the big thing is not good, the Qin army has captured the two counties of Wushu and Taimo, the seventh master died, and Erlang suffered heavy casualties......"

Just when Tu Sui was attacking Wushu and Taimo, a rebel army led by Zhong Liwu had also occupied Poyang County, and while he was drinking and laughing with his subordinates here, a messenger came urgently with a pale face.

"Bang dang" The wine glass in Xiang Liang's hand fell, then he stood up and strode to the bottom of the hall of the county office, grabbed the messenger and yelled angrily, "How can it be so fast, who will be the Qin who comes?" ”

The sudden bad news stunned everyone, and the lively banquet was quiet for a moment, and only the sound of teeth trembling was heard.

"I saw a slaughter word on the banner at the head of the city, and I don't know who it will be?" The messenger stammered.

"The surname Tu, don't guess, it must be the Marquis of Xiongshan, Tu Sui, undoubtedly the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military ministers, and there is only one general surnamed Tu!" A gray-haired Confucian said, rubbing his beard with trembling fingers.

"What Liu Xianling said is that this person must be Tu Sui, and now that Wushu and Taimo are lost, we must find a way to capture it back as soon as possible, otherwise I am afraid that there will be many dreams at night, by the way, how many people and horses will Tu Sui bring?" Zhong Liwu stood up and asked.

"About five or six thousand, all of them are wearing armor, and the bow and crossbow are sharp, I can't hold it for a long time, I still can't resist after three hours, the third master has retreated to Yujiang......"

"Hmph, useless person, Tu Sui only brought 6,000 men and horses to exterminate my Xiang clan, and he was too blind to no one, but unfortunately the seventh brother fell, Brother Zhongli and guarded Poyang, and the old man personally went to recapture Taimo and Wushu counties!"

Xiang Liang's anger was like thunder, and he dropped the messenger and strode towards the outside of the county office.

"Brother, don't worry, now Tu Sui is leading the Qin army to come, and the two cities are bound to be in full swing, don't be in a hurry to fight with it, Taimo is more than five hundred miles away from Yujiang County, he will definitely attack Yujiang in a few days, why don't we wait for work, set up an ambush and wait for him to be caught!" A member of the Xiang clan stood up, and it was Xiang He, the fourth in the Xiang clan's side branch.

"Xiang Gong, what his brother said is right, Tu Sui's current troops are invincible, and his subordinates have no experience in confrontation with the Qin army, so it may backfire if he rushes to send troops, since we know Tu Sui's strength, we can set up an ambush around Yujiang, and we will definitely defeat him by waiting for work!" The dragon stood up and persuaded.

"Xiang Gong, you can't fight hard, ambush is the best way!" Some of the other generals all stood up in support of Xiang and Long.

Xiang Liang's face was silent like ice, and after a moment, he gritted his teeth and nodded.

Seven days passed, Xiang Liang in Yujiang County to send troops to set up an ambush around the city, personally sit in Yujiang City to meet the enemy, and after capturing Taimo to repair for three days, Tu Sui also led the army to march slowly to approach Yujiang, after interrogating prisoners and days of inquiry, Tu Sui already knew that Xiang Liang's rebels now have tens of thousands of people, and occupy Yujiang and Luling, and may occupy Poyang in the near future, and although he defeated the rebels twice and killed nearly 2,000 people, the rebels did not hurt their vitality, but as long as he took Yujiang again, Then it can echo the defenders of Da Yuling, and the Xiang rebels can only be forced to go along Poyang County to Jiujiang, so that the Xiang family will be completely driven to the edge of the river, and the Xiang family will inevitably be cornered at that time.

But Tu Sui was right, but he underestimated the background of the Xiang family, Xiang was born in a family of military generals, and it was an old Chu nobleman, no matter the lineage of the family, they all read and practiced dance and were proficient in the art of war, it was an authentic old aristocratic family, not at all a civilian marquis like Tu Sui who climbed up step by step from ordinary soldiers, in addition to Xiang Liang and Xiang Bo of the lineage, Xiang also had Xiang Sheng and Xiang He, two powerful people who were proficient in strategy and the art of war, even if they were other relatives in the clan, It is not an ordinary ranger idler who can be compared, it is precisely because of the many relatives of the Xiang clan and their profound heritage that this Xiang rebellion can grow so smoothly and become a force that stirs the southern counties.

And the Xiang family not only has his own clan relatives, but also heroes like Long Ji and Zhong Liwu, and this is also the reason why Chen Xu is worried that Tu Sui, a reckless man, will not be able to handle the Xiang family.

Looking at the Tu Sui army with the black dragon flag and Changge densely and neatly coming, Xiang Liang and other group of rebel leaders standing at the head of the city also felt numb, the Qin army is indeed invincible, compared with the Qin army, the rebels are really a group of rabble, looking at the pale faces standing crookedly at the head of the city, Xiang Liang couldn't help but pull his face violently a few times, in contrast, this group of subordinates even himself is a little disgusted at the moment.

Tu Sui's army was fifty zhang away from the city, and then the army scattered on both sides.

The "bow" roared with Tu Sui, accompanied by a large banner with a bow written on it, and more than a thousand archers lined up behind the shield array drew the giant bow.

The moment the "shooting" banner fell, more than a thousand sharp arrows tore through the cold wind of early winter and shot on the wall, and the rebels naturally had already prepared a large number of simple wooden shields to stand on the city wall, and a large number of arrows naturally did useless work, but there were still some screams and rolls through the cracks to shoot the rebels hiding behind, and the city head has begun to panic under a round of arrows.

For the Xiang rebels, Tu Sui didn't bother to shout, only made a simple array and began to suppress with bows and arrows, in this era of cold weapons, the most convenient way to siege the city is bows and arrows, if there are tens of thousands of archers, Tu Sui believes that he can take this seemingly well-defended city in half an hour at most, but because the Xiang rebellion happened suddenly, and the intelligence at that time was only more than 2,000 people, I didn't expect to find that the strength comparison was a bit wrong after arriving, but no matter what, The rebels could not be compared with the Qin army in terms of training and equipment, although these 6,000 soldiers and horses were not the most powerful warriors of Great Qin, but they were also the soldiers who had exterminated the six countries, and they were forbidden to advance and retreat, which was far from being comparable to this rabble.

When the Qin army attacked, some archers on the city wall also began to counterattack, but they were as sparse as the previous two times, and even many of the bows and arrows made by the rebels in a hurry could not shoot far at all, most of them fell in the open space between the two armies, and even more, the rebels and some of them fell from the city when shooting arrows themselves, which caused many Qin soldiers to laugh.

Even Tu Sui relaxed his mind and began to talk and laugh with a few captains.

Before and after only ten days of two cities, this group of rebels who disturbed the southeastern counties was just a joke in the eyes of Tu Sui, this time the victory and return to the dynasty, it will inevitably add another military merit, maybe there is a chance to climb to the top of the Marquis, so that in the future, you can sit at the same table with Wang Benmeng Tian in the court and enjoy the honor.

After a few rounds of bows and arrows, the city was already in more and more panic, and the wooden shields in many places fell to the city in large areas, and some of the rebels even began to resist under the suppression and scolding of the bandits.

"The shield hand is in front, approaching thirty zhang, the bow and crossbow are suppressed, ready to hit the wooden ......"

Looking at the chaotic situation of the bandits on the city wall, it seemed that because the rebels' hearts had been shaken after losing two cities in a row, chaos began to appear in a short time, so Tu Sui directly ordered the army to press and prepare to break the city.

Half an hour later, under the fierce attack of the Qin army, hundreds of corpses have fallen under the city, the counterattack on the city has become more and more powerless and panicked, and even a group of rebel bandits who have been standing on the floor began to run back and forth in panic and yell, under the fierce suppression of the bow and crossbow, the collision wood successfully arrived at the city gate and began to impact, in the continuous impact of the bang, the city successively heard the sound of panic shouts and runs.

"Boom"

After dozens of impacts, the heavy wooden door still collapsed.

"The one who kills and captures the first Liang of the bandits, the fifth level of the knight!" Tu Sui's long sword swung forward, and the Qin army rushed towards the city gate like a black tide.

"Kill"

Just as Tu Sui's army was halfway into the city, suddenly thousands of rebels rushed out of a valley in the southeast of Yujiang City, and the first of them was a burly general, who was Long Ji.

The sudden ambush suddenly made the Qin army begin to panic, and the soldiers who were behind could only turn around in a hurry to resist the rebels of Long Ji, and after an arrow the two sides stood together, the Qin army fell into a situation of front and back attack, because when the Qin army rushed into the city, they found that there were not many civilians on the streets that should have been in a panic, but a large number of rebels rushed out among the houses and lanes on both sides, and the Qin army could only fight with the bandits on the narrow streets and gradually disperse.

"Report, General, a rebel army has appeared outside the city and is attacking the rear positions of our army!" Tu Sui, who was fighting the rebels, suddenly got bad news.

"General, the last general suggests that we withdraw from the city as soon as possible, if it is late, there will be changes, if our army is cut into two parts, we will not be able to take care of each other!" One of the lieutenants yelled.

"Withdraw" Tu Sui also knew that he might have been tricked, so he roared and led the Qin army to reflexively kill at the city gate, which suddenly made the Qin army even more chaotic, and thousands of Qin troops crowded into chaos at the narrow city gate.

"Tu Sui, I can't come back today, this is your place of death!"

Just as Tu Sui rushed out of the city gate to stabilize his position against the rebels behind him, a loud roar suddenly came from the floor.

Tu Sui turned around and saw a burly man with a beard and a huge bow in his hand already open.

"Boom"

At the sound of the bowstring, the jet-black arrows that had been the thickness of the thumb tore through the air and went straight to Tu Sui.

"General, be careful!" Amidst the exclamations of countless Qin soldiers and guards, Tu Sui screamed and rolled over and rolled off his horse.

"Haha, Tu Sui is dead, kill"

With a burst of hearty laughter on the head of the city, several horns sounded on the head of the city, and suddenly thousands of rebels who were ambushed in the city shouted and rushed out, scattering the Qin army that was still blocked at the city gate and could not retreat, and at the same time, there were dense arrows on the city head that rained down on the Qin army below.

"Protect the general, retreat!" A group of guards shouted at the same time, rescued Tu Sui who had fallen off the horse, and then retreated in the direction of Taimo, but at this time, under the attack of the two rebels, the formation was completely chaotic after losing Tu Sui's leadership, several captains fought separately, and the entire Yujiang City was mixed up for several miles, and the Qin army and the rebels were completely strangled together, and they couldn't retreat smoothly.

After a tragic battle, the Qin army finally began to slowly gather closer, leaving more than a thousand corpses and began to gather together to retreat, while the two rebels followed and continued to attack, the Qin army could only retreat in a hurry, a large number of heavy grain and grass were abandoned, and the people who transported grain and grass with the army also fled in all directions, and the scene was a mess.

After escaping five miles, when the Qin army had just begun to gather the remnants of the soldiers under the organization of several captains, suddenly another rebel army came out of the woods on the side, so that the Qin army was completely panicked, and in the face of the interception of the three rebels, the Qin army quickly collapsed, and after a more chaotic fight, the Qin army once again left hundreds of corpses and fled to Taimo, and the three rebels followed closely behind and continued to chase and kill, the Qin army scattered, leaving only more than 2,000 people wrapped in poisoned arrows Tu Sui escaped.

The rebels then violently covered up and gave chase.

Two days later, the Qin army retreated into the county seat of Taimo, but by this time the Qin army had less than a thousand men left, and almost all of them were wounded and exhausted.

And Xiang Liang's rebels followed, at this time Tu Sui had been bruised by arrow poison, almost cut off his breath, the largest general under his command was only a five hundred generals, all the captains were killed or missing, so the Qin army could not hold on to Taimo, could only flee in a hurry again, the rebels soon occupied Taimo, the momentum was like a tiger and continued to chase and fight, a day later the Qin army fled to Wusheng County, met the Huiji Taishou Jiang Heng and Minzhong County Lieutenant Gao Yan who met here, the two sides combined with about more than 3,000 people, but in the face of the pursuit of seven or eight thousand rebelsAfter a fierce battle between the two sides in Wusheng City, the city wall was broken by the rebels in several places, Jiang Heng could only protect Tu Sui to Zhuji and retreat in a hurry, Gao Yan also led his subordinates to retreat to Fujian, and the two sides each left thousands of corpses after the Wusheng County fell into the hands of Xiang Liang again.
