574, Liu Kaijun's rebellion

After Liu Kai found out that this side of Juchao County was occupied by foreign enemies, he understood why the messenger he had sent to Anhui County did not respond.

But for the time being, he didn't worry much about Liu Xun in Anhui County, after all, Liu Xun had more than 20,000 troops on his side, and he was already ready to defend against Zhu Wei's army.

Liu Kai also thought that the foreign enemy on Juchao's side might be Zhu Wei, who had smuggled over from the Zongyang section of the Yangtze River, to sneak attack the soldiers and horses, otherwise he didn't think that Zhu Wei's army could pass through the defense line arranged by his brother Liu Xun in the direction of Anhui County so easily.

However, on this day, someone suddenly came to report, saying that there was a messenger from Liu Taishou in Anhui County who asked for help, saying that there was a military report from Liu Xun to Liu Kai, and Liu Kai also met with this messenger at the first time.

Then the messenger took out a letter asking for help from Anhui County, which was also stamped with the seal of Lujiang Taishou, but the letter was more of an official tone, but there was no private letter from Liu Xun to his younger brother Liu Kai.

In the letter asking for help, it was said that Zhu Wei's army had surrounded Anhui County, and Liu Xun's army of 20,000 troops was stationed outside Anhui County, but it had been routed by Zhu Wei's army.

Anyway, most of the content on the letter for help is true, basically telling about the predicament of Anhui County, and then let Liu Kai lead troops to help as soon as possible, hoping that after Liu Kai passes, the two brothers can join forces to resist the siege of Zhu Wei's army, and support it until the reinforcements from Shouchun Yuanshu's side arrive.

After Liu Kai read the letter, he couldn't help but interrogate the messenger who came to deliver the letter, but this messenger was selected from Zhu Wei's school affairs, and of course he had already prepared a response.

For example, he was not the only messenger who came out to ask for help this time, but after they arrived at Juchao from Anhui County before, they found that Juchao had been captured by Zhu Wei's army, so they could only take a detour, but they were still discovered by the scouts in Zhu Wei's army, so they were intercepted and killed by Zhu Weizhi's scouts, and they desperately escaped with their lives or something.

The messenger also deliberately made some scars on his body, as if he had really fought to the death.

Then Liu Kai still asked suspiciously, why there was no private message from Liu Xun to him, only such a public letter, and then asked about the war situation in Anhui County, the size of Zhu Wei's army, and so on.

And the messenger who pretended to be the school office still answered fluently, only saying that he didn't know about the private message, but maybe there was a private message, but it was on other messengers, but he had been killed by the scouts in Zhu Wei's army on the way.

As for the war in Anhui County and the intelligence information of Zhu Wei's army, he also said them one by one according to the early draft, and he really didn't show any flaws.

In the end, Liu Kai still believed the messenger's words, so he immediately summoned his civil and military officials, and discussed the matter of sending troops to rescue Anhui County, first of all, of course, to capture Juchao County, which was occupied by Zhu Wei's army.

Almost a day later, Liu Kai left 5,000 soldiers to defend the city, and at the same time, he recruited more than 10,000 young and strong private soldiers from all ethnic groups to help protect Shu County, and then personally led 10,000 troops to the direction of Juchao to kill him, preparing to rescue Liu Xun in Anhui County.

Because he was worried about Liu Xun's situation in Anhui County, Liu Kai really led his troops to quickly kill Juchao County along the official road.

It's just that Liu Kai didn't expect that his every move had been monitored by Zhu Wei through the map of the Three Kingdoms game system, so just when Liu Kai's army came to a place three miles away from Juchao County, Liu Kai's army found that there was an army blocking the way in front of the official road.

At this time, Liu Kai's army of nearly 10,000 people also formed a long line on the official road, with the soldiers in front of them in a hurry, and the logistics auxiliaries responsible for transporting supplies in the rear.

So in a section of the official road on the left side against the river and on the right side of the hill and woodland, there were about four or five thousand soldiers and horses blocking the road in front of it.

Of course, Liu Kai didn't hit him headlong directly, but the scout vanguard he sent in front found such an army blocking the way, and the banner he played was obviously the flag of the enemy Zhu Wei's side.

So Liu Kai hurriedly ordered the army to stop, and wanted to line up on the official road to find suitable terrain to prepare for the battle, but unfortunately it was a little late at this time.

The army that stopped in front of Liu Kai's more than 10,000 troops directly launched an attack on Liu Kai's side, and four or five thousand soldiers and horses, led by the two generals at the head, rushed towards Liu Kai's army like a two-headed poisonous dragon.

Behind the two generals, two flags fluttered in the air, one wrote the word "Pang" and the other wrote the word "Zhou", which was the two fierce generals Pang Yan and Zhou Tai.

At the same time, in the hills and woodlands on the right side of the official road, the sound of gongs and drums also sounded, and then the sound of shouting and killing sounded like a tide, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses rushed up from the mountains and forests to the official road.

"Whoosh ......"

Feather arrows and crossbow arrows appeared with the ambush soldiers, and fell from mid-air to the heads of Liu Kai's soldiers who were dense on the official road, and Liu Kai's army could be regarded as completely caught in the ambush of Zhu Wei's army.

"It's not good! Withdraw, withdraw! ”

Liu Kai was not a capable general, but he couldn't help but panic when he was suddenly ambushed at this moment, and hurriedly commanded the army to retreat, thinking about getting out of this ambush.

Liu Kai himself did not dare to go up to meet Pang Yan and Zhou Tai, but he turned his horse and fled back first, and for a while, the army that was originally preparing for battle on the official road was disrupted by the actions of their main general.

Even Liu Kai, the main general, fled, and where did the other soldiers still have the heart to resist, they all wanted their parents to have two more legs, but they just fled back.

Almost before the ambush soldiers on Zhu Wei's side entered Liu Kai's army, Liu Kai's more than 10,000 soldiers and horses had already collapsed on their own, scattered on the official road about fifty paces wide.

However, on the left side of the official road is the river, and on the right side is the ambush soldiers killed by Zhu Wei's army, so Liu Kai's soldiers have no other place to escape, so they can only turn around and run back, thinking that they can escape back to the Shu County base camp.

To be honest, with such a result, even the many soldiers in ambush on Zhu Wei's side were a little stunned, this was too smooth, and it was chaotic without hitting the other party.

If it weren't for the fact that Zhu Wei's preparations were very complete, some wise generals in Zhu Wei's army would have doubted whether this was Liu Kaizhi's army's plan to lure the enemy, but in fact, everything was under Zhu Wei's supervision, so naturally there would be no anti-ambush and lure the enemy.

Then many generals directly ordered their soldiers to shout, "Those who surrender will not be killed, and those who surrender will not be killed!" Discard your weapons and kneel on the side of the road! ”

For a while, the sound of surrender was also all over the mountains, and many of Liu Kai's soldiers heard the sound and ran directly to the roadside to abandon their weapons and surrender, which made Liu Kai's escape with three or four thousand personal soldiers more smoothly.

In this way, Liu Kai fled along the official road with the remnants of these pro-soldiers in a hurry, but it was a little faster than the speed of their march to Anhui County and Juchao......
