Guan Yu's order, everyone present was a little surprised, and after looking at each other, they saw a person standing up, arching his hand and asking: "General Guan, the enemy is attacking on a large scale, we should actively defend ourselves, why do we still have to go out at this juncture?" Moreover, please forgive the last general for taking the liberty of not knowing where General Guan wants to go on the expedition? ”

"It is precisely because of the enemy's large-scale attack that we cannot sit idly by, we must take the initiative to attack, surprise them, attack them unprepared, give the enemy a painful blow, and let the enemy know the strength of our army, otherwise, once the enemy soldiers come to the city, it will be difficult for us to break through." Guan Yu said.

"But, General Guan, there are 100,000 enemy troops......"

Guan Yu snorted coldly, and said uncontrollably: "Even if the enemy has millions of people, what can it do? If someone wants to take someone's head among the ten thousand troops, it is like probing for something, as long as he rushes into the enemy formation and kills Zhang Yan, the king of Yan, the enemy army will be leaderless, and it will inevitably fall into chaos, which is also the time for our army to take revenge. ”

When everyone heard Guan Yu say this, they seemed to have regained a little confidence. But deep down, there is always a worry.

Guan Yu is not a fool, and his eyes are not blind, so he can naturally see the worries of those soldiers. However, he said confidently: "Don't worry, this expedition will definitely kill the king of Yan, as long as the king of Yan Zhang Yan is dead, the enemy army will fall into chaos, we can take advantage of the chaos to attack, and defeat the enemy army in one go." ”

Then, Jian Yong, who was present, stood up and said loudly: "What General Guan said is that in terms of troops, our army is indeed inferior to the enemy. So. Our army can only win by surprise. General Guan's strategy just now can be said to be very good, and he can definitely defeat the enemy army with less. As long as we are all united and united, even if there are many enemies, we don't have to be afraid, because of our General Guan. Able to take the rank of general among the hosts! ”

After Jian Yong's words were finished, everyone present stopped talking, Guan Yu is a well-known enemy of 10,000 people, this is a well-known thing, and what Guan Yu said is also very reasonable, instead of sitting still, it is better to take the initiative to attack and fight once, maybe you can really defeat the enemy.

So, everyone silently agreed with Guan Yu's decision. Even if you don't agree, it won't help. Because Guan Yu had already given the order, they had to go along.

Guan Yu knows Changsha better than anyone else, he has been in Jingnan for several years, and has traveled to every corner of the four counties of Jingnan, when the scout came to report and told him that Zhang Yan led a large army to garrison Luo County, Guan Yu suddenly felt that this was a golden opportunity to kill Zhang Yan.

Although Zhang Yan brought 100,000 troops, they all had to stop at the Miluo River because they had to take the waterway.

However, the county seat of Luoxian is about forty or fifty miles away from the riverside of the Miluo River, even if Zhang Yan goes to the county seat of Luoxian to take the guards, it will only be one or two thousand people at most, so that Guan Yu can carry out a long-distance attack, lead all the troops, go straight to the county seat of Luoxian, surround Zhang Yan in the county seat of Luoxian, and then cut off the connection between the navy and Zhang Yan by the river, and completely trap Zhang Yan alive in the county seat.

This is Guan Yu's plan, and it is also the last expression of his hard work. Whether Zhang Yan can be successfully killed depends on this military operation.

Half an hour later, all the armies were assembled, led by Guan Yu himself, and rushed to Luo County.

The army led by Guan Yu was only 5,000 Shanyue troops, and after occupying Changsha, he recruited some old troops and expanded the army to 12,000 people, plus the 30,000 troops brought by Ling Cao, Pan Zhang, and Tan Xiong, and the army available for Guan Yu's command was 42,000 people.

This time, Guan Yu directly took away 40,000 people, leaving only 2,000 soldiers to guard the city, and let Jian Yong stay behind to guard Linxiang City.

At this time, the night has fallen, Guan Yu with the 40,000 horse infantry army, the mighty Chaoluo County, along the way to the flags and drums, do not play torches, Guan Yu with 5,000 elite Shanyue army walked in the front, led by himself, the rest of the people followed behind.

Linxiang is not too far from Luo County, and the road on this road is also very smooth, Guan Yu and they did not encounter any danger, after a long journey of three hours, they finally arrived in Luo County smoothly, less than forty miles away from the county seat.

At this time, it was already the dawn of the next day, and the army marched all night, and it was still walking so fast that many soldiers were exhausted.

However, Guan Yu did not have the slightest intention of resting, but urged the army to speed up the march, and finally stopped temporarily twenty miles away from the county seat before allowing the army to rest.

However, Guan Yu was not idle for a moment, he immediately sent scouts to the county town in front of him to investigate, wanting to know the latest situation here, and then make a decision.

Half an hour later, the scouts sent out by Guan Yu all came back and told Guan Yu what they had heard.

On the county seat of Luo County, Zhang Yan's royal flag is hung high, the city wall is brightly lit, three steps and one sentry, five steps and one post, and the guards are extremely strict. And on the road leading to the river, there are also a small number of rangers patrolling back and forth, about 200 people.

After Guan Yu heard these news, he opened the map, gathered all the subordinate generals to his side, lit a torch, and under the faint light of the fire, Guan Yu pointed to the place names marked on the map and began to talk eloquently.

After some arrangements, Guan Yu asked solemnly: "Are you all clear about this operation?" ”

"It's all clear!" The generals replied together.

Guan Yu said: "Now that everything is clear, then act according to the plan, your performance tonight will directly involve whether the entire plan can succeed." If I kill Zhang Yan today, you will all have a heavy reward! ”

"Thank you for the kindness of the general, we will do our best to complete the task!"

"Okay, without further ado, seeing that the sky is about to dawn, let's start acting now, if it's too late, it won't have the effect of a surprise attack!" Guan Yu said.

Everyone nodded, and then hugged their fists towards Guan Yu together, and finally dispersed one after another, and then gathered all the departments and acted separately.

Guan Yu gathered 5,000 Shanyue elites and an army of 25,000 people, a total of 30,000 people, and rushed straight to the county seat of Luoxian. The other 10,000 people are divided into two parts, one part is responsible for setting ambushes and traps on the road leading from the river to the county seat, in short, it is necessary to prevent the riverside naval army from supporting the county town by various means, and the other part is responsible for driving away the patrolling rangers. After dealing with these rangers, they joined up with another group of people to intercept reinforcements and support the county seat of Luoxian.

This plan, in Guan Yu's opinion, is perfect, so he is full of confidence.

The distance of twenty miles is not too far, and for a soldier like Guan Yu and them, it is only a matter of a moment.

The army is still silent, and unlike when they marched before, in order to avoid startling the snakes, Guan Yu sent scouts to explore the way in front early, and in case of any danger, he quickly passed the news back, only in this way could he ensure the success of their sneak attack.

As if the heavens were watching over them, they didn't encounter a single enemy along the way, and the sky gradually darkened before dawn, just to cover them to arrive near the county seat quietly.

The county seat of Luo County is just a small city, and it will be very crowded if it can accommodate 30,000 or 40,000 people. The county seat of Luo County has no moat, and the city wall is not very high, I really don't know what the reason is, so Zhang Yan chose this place as a foothold.

On the city wall of the county seat, as reported by the scouts before, the lights were bright, three steps and one sentry, five steps and one post, and the soldiers were standing straight, looking well-trained.

However, the light of the fire on the city wall could illuminate very limited areas, and it was limited to a radius of thirty paces around the wall, and beyond thirty paces, nothing could be seen.

And at this time, it is also the time when people are most likely to get sleepy, Guan Yu can vaguely see that those soldiers who have stuck to their posts all night can't help yawning, and some even take a nap directly against the city wall.

"God help me!" Guan Yu saw this scene, not to mention how happy he was, he raised his head, a pair of tiger eyes stared closely at the flagpole hanging above the city wall, under the blowing of the night wind, the king flag on the flagpole swayed with the wind, and the huge word "Yan" has been reflected in Guan Yu's eyes.

"Let's get moving!" Guan Yu stretched out his hand, clenched his fist, and ordered the generals who were following him.

The generals all whispered, and then dispersed, each with his subordinates, and scattered around, surrounding the county seat of Luo County, and quietly surrounded the county seat.

In the county seat of Luo County, there are only two city gates in the north and south, and only there are so many people standing near these two city gates, although there are also people standing on the rest of the city walls, but relatively speaking, there are not as many people as there are at the city gates.

When everyone was already in place, Guan Yu began to give the order to launch an attack on the county seat of Luo County.

"Shoot the arrows!"

With Guan Yu's order, countless arrows flew out from the darkness in all directions, and they shot at the defenders standing on the city wall.

The sudden attack immediately caused the men on the city wall to be shot one after another, and then they screamed and fell.

At this time, one of the defenders dodged a lucky arrow, and when he saw someone attacking, he immediately ran into the tower and rang a large bell hanging in the tower.

Boom! Boom! Bang -

The huge bell is particularly piercing in such a silent night, and the quiet county seat of Luoxian County immediately becomes lively with the ringing of this bell...... (To be continued......)
