Chapter 979: Soldiers are in the water

Yang Lie saw that the two thousand Liu Song troops had already fled before they could fight, and immediately laughed: "Hahahaยทยทยทยทยทยท Rats, where to escape? Soldiers, follow me! โ€

The rout soldiers of Liu Song's army, who were fleeing, turned their heads to see that the cavalry of the cadre army in the rear were quickly chasing and killing, and they were so frightened that they only hated the lack of two legs.

In a short time, Yang Lie led the cavalry of the cadre army to catch up with the fleeing Liu Song army, and rushed to kill, killing the Liu Song army's rout, and the corpses were all over the field.

Xiao Huizhen, the general of the Song soldiers, with two hundred cavalry, did not have the courage to fight Yang Lie at all, and desperately beat his horse and fled, but the front was full of fleeing Liu Song infantry, and these routs blocked the way they fled everywhere.

Xiao Huizhen also didn't treat these Liu Song soldiers as people, regardless of the horses and rushing wildly, the routed soldiers in front were knocked and killed by him and his two hundred cavalry.

Those Liu Song defeated soldiers were not killed by the cavalry of the cadre army, but were killed countless by their own generals and cavalry.

At this moment, what little morale Liu Songjun had was lost, and no one had the courage to resist anymore.

In the rear, the scouts of the cadre army rushed to report to Zhao Junsheng: "Your Majesty, General Yang led the army to defeat the Liu Song army and Xiao Huizhen's army, and is currently chasing and killing its remnants!" โ€

After hearing this, Zhao Junsheng opened the map and looked at it, and found that in order to reach Fuxian, he had to cross Fushui to reach Fuxian County, so he immediately ordered the herald: "Quickly send the order to Yang Lie, let him snatch the Fushui Bridge for me, and ensure that the army can cross the bridge smoothly and reach Fuxian County!" โ€

"Yes!"

But it is said that Yang Lie took 2,000 cavalry to chase all the way, since Xiao Huizhen caught up, killed on the north bank of Fushui with one shot, and before Liu Songjun guarding Fushui Bridge could react, he rushed up to the bridge to kill Liu Songjun at the bridgehead, and rushed directly to the opposite bank to seize the bridgehead.

A few frightened soldiers of the Liu Song Army rushed in the direction of Fushui City, shouting as they ran: "The cadres are here, the cadres are here!" โ€

A centurion of the cadre army led the way with more than 100 cavalry, and after controlling the two ends of the Fushui Bridge, he left a tooth to guard the two ends of the bridge, and brought the remaining tooth to kill directly in the direction of Fuxian.

With only one tooth's strength, he dared to kill the enemy's city, and the courage of this tooth master was really not small.

But it was precisely because of the audacity of this tooth owner that he frightened the defenders of Fu County, and more than 30 horsemen caused a great panic to the soldiers and civilians here.

On the tower of the north gate of Fuxian County, the defenders saw a cadre army flag being held, dozens of cavalry galloped all the way, rushing towards the direction of the city with fierce momentum, and the people nearby were so frightened that they screamed and fled in all directions.

"The cavalry of the dry army is coming, close the city gate and raise the drawbridge!" The defenders on the walls were in disarray.

Everyone here thought that Zitong City was just occupied by the displaced people, and Fuxian County also sent officers and soldiers to encircle and suppress the chaos, but they didn't expect to provoke the cadres over, how is this good?

Fortunately, the defenders were still nimble, and although they were frightened, they put away the drawbridge and closed the city gate before the cavalry could kill them.

The centurion of the cadre army with a tooth cavalry ran around the whole city under the city to reconnoiter the situation of the city defense, which made the soldiers of the Liu Song garrison very nervous, thinking that these cavalry of the cadre army were really showing off their might.

After receiving the news, Fuxian immediately rushed from the county government to the city wall to observe the situation, and found that the Qianjun army only had a cavalry with a tooth, but he did not think that the Qianjun only had such a small number of men, and sent 2,000 people from Fuxian to quell the rebellion of the displaced people, but now there is no trace, but I am afraid that the whole army has been wiped out, and it can eat 2,000 men and horses in one bite without hiccups, which shows that the strength of the Qianjun will definitely not be less.

"County Zun, what should I do now?" Lord Bo asked.

The county commander of Fuxian County frowned, thought about it for a while and said: "This is a big trouble, we originally had 3,000 people, if there were 3,000 guards, we could resist for a while, but we only have 1,000 people now, Xiao Huizhen and the other 2,000 people are nowhere to be seen, it is likely that there will be more than one auspicious, and the strength of the cadre army will definitely not be less, we must ask the state government for help, otherwise this Fuxian County will not last long!" โ€

The county lieutenant said: "County Zun, the lower officials don't think they need to worry too much, the cadres are cavalry, can they still use cavalry to attack the city?" We can first send someone to the state capital for help, and then organize troops and young men to defend the city for reinforcements to arrive! โ€

The county commander said: "That being said, but the county is still very worried, these are just the outposts of the cadre army, and their follow-up men will definitely arrive soon!" You should send someone to the state capital to report the situation here, and strive to get the state capital to send reinforcements as soon as possible! โ€

"Good!"

At the end of the afternoon, Zhao Junsheng led his army to the north bank of Fushui.

Stopping at the bridgehead on the north bank, and building a pergola to observe Fu County on the other side of the river, Zhao Junsheng took out the map and pondered for a while, and ordered Yang Lie and Nie Feihu: "Nie Feihu led the Liangzhou town army to cross the river and camp, and Yang Lie led the cavalry to camp on the north bank!" โ€

"No!" The two of them hugged their fists and agreed, and they went their separate ways.

At this time, there was already a mess in Fuxian County, and a large number of cadres and troops appeared on the north bank of Fushui, which frightened the soldiers and civilians in Fuxian County.

A large number of young men in the city were forcibly conscripted to assist in defending the city, and each of them was assigned a weapon, and a total of more than 2,000 young men were organized into three parts to take turns on the city wall.

As night fell, several messengers rode out of the city from the south gate and galloped away in the direction of Chengdu.

At this time, the two camps of the cadres on the north and south banks of Fushui rose with green smoke, and the men began to make fires to make food, and many smoke piles were lit in the camps, and the smoke piles were burning with herbs to repel mosquitoes and insects.

The defenders on the wall of Fuxian County could clearly see the fire in the camp of the cadres in the distance, and even saw groups of soldiers patrolling the camp.

The hot wind slowly flowed on the city wall, and the county magistrate of Fuxian County was still frowning, "The two camps on the north and south banks add up to definitely more than 10,000 people, and we only have 1,000 people here. โ€

The county lieutenant shook his head and said: "County Zun, your estimate is less, in the opinion of the following officials, there are definitely more than 10,000 people!" โ€

Lord Bo cautiously probed: "County Zun, with our current strength, we can't hold it at all, it's a few days away from the state capital here, even if we send reinforcements over there, we also need to prepare grain and grass and mobilize troops, these will take time, I'm afraid that when the reinforcements are brought, Fuxian County will have already been breached, and we will already be in a different place!" โ€

The county commander turned his head to look at the main body, "What do you mean by this?" You advocate surrender? โ€

The lord Bo was stared at by countless pairs of eyes around him, only feeling uncomfortable, he stubbornly said: "County Zun, it's not that the lower officials are greedy for life and afraid of death, it's really that we don't have the possibility of holding Fu County at all, if we stick to it, once the cadres break through the city, when the time comes, we will not only not save the people of the city, but also kill everyone!" Even if we go to the underworld, these innocent souls will settle accounts with us! โ€

The county commander looked at the county lieutenant: "Ren county lieutenant, what are your plans?" โ€

The county lieutenant Ren shook his head: "The lower official is a county lieutenant, and the county is still in charge here, what should I do, the lower official is the head of the county!" โ€

The county magistrate thought for a while and said, "Let's wait and see!" โ€

On the north bank of Fushui, the cavalry camp of the cadre army, and the camp tent of Zhao Junsheng's commander are located here.

An imperial guard walked in with a plate, "Your Majesty, this is freshly roasted goat meat!" โ€

Zhao Junsheng raised his gaze from the map, moved the map and asked the imperial guard to put the plate of mutton on the table, he sniffed, "This goat meat is quite fragrant when roasted!" โ€

"Yes, Your Majesty, eat it while it's hot, it won't taste like that when it's cold!"

Zhao Junsheng nodded, picked up the knife and began to cut meat and eat it.

At this time, a guard outside walked in and reported: "Your Majesty, Commander Lin has something to see!" โ€

Zhao Junsheng beckoned, and the guards lifted the curtain of the tent to let Lin Jinghui in.

"Your Majesty!"

Zhao Junsheng asked, "Have you eaten it?" โ€

"Uh, not yet!"

Zhao Junsheng instructed the imperial guards: "Get some barbecue for Commander Lin!" โ€

"No!"

Lin Jinghui knelt down at a table next to him and reported: "Your Majesty, the spies have come to report that there were originally 3,000 troops in Fuxian, of which 2,000 were defeated and annihilated by General Yang on the way to Zitong City, and now there are only 1,000 people left in Fuxian City, but the officials in the city have organized more than 2,000 young people to help defend the city!" โ€

Zhao Junsheng thought for a moment and asked, "How is the morale of the defenders?" โ€

"The people are panicking, the defenders have no morale at all! If it weren't for the officials' efforts to maintain it, I'm afraid that those soldiers would have been so frightened that they would have thrown down their weapons and armor and fled! โ€

Zhao Junsheng said with a smile: "So it shouldn't be difficult to fight in Fuxian!" I don't understand, how can this city have 3,000 troops, it shouldn't be! โ€

"Your Majesty, this Fuxian County is the key point from Shuzhong to Hanzhong, and the location is very important! Moreover, after a large number of displaced people went to the north, the Shuzhong government sent additional troops here, the purpose of which was to prevent the refugees from returning to pose a threat to Shuzhong! โ€

This guard brought Lin Jinghui barbecue, and he ate it unceremoniously.

Zhao Junsheng said while eating: "There is basically no obstacle from here to Chengdu Mansion, except that Mianzhu may cause us some trouble, there is no other problem!" How many troops do Chengdu Mansion and Mianzhu have now, have you figured it out? โ€

Lin Jinghui said: "After checking clearly, there are only 3,000 people in Chengdu Mansion and only 1,000 people in Mianzhu, but Liu Songjun still has nearly 10,000 troops in various parts of Bashu, and they are all currently sent to suppress the rebellion of the displaced people!" โ€

Zhao Junsheng thought for a while, and shouted outside: "Someone! โ€

A royal guard on duty walked in and hugged his fists and said, "Your Majesty! โ€

"Send someone to urge the ministers and ministers to hurry up and come to the meeting!"

"Yes!"

Early the next morning, Zhao Junsheng had breakfast and ordered his troops and horses to cross the bridge to the city of Fuxian, the army set up a military formation, the aura of slaughter filled the entire sky, and the Liu Song army on the city wall trembled one by one.

"Come on, go and shout for them to surrender, after the city is surrendered, everyone in the city will be spared death!"
