Chapter 571: Attack on Jingzhou!
Thank you Chocolate De for the two monthly passes!
A quarter of an hour later, the first batch of warships docked on Zihui and returned to the port, and the first to land was the Wudang Flying Army trained by Jia Long, which was only 3,000 people, but everyone was a fierce and fearless soldier, and was extremely well-equipped, not only the strong army under Liu Zhang's command, but also the only military brigade that could confront the elite of the Wei army head-on except for Sun Jian's Wu Guoshui Division today.
The 3,000 Wudang Flying Army that landed on the shore immediately seized the high ground in the port under the command of Jia Long, and set up a defensive formation, and then the main army began to land one after another.
About two hours later, it was already noon, and all the 200,000 Shu Han troops boarded Zigui Port, and then, Yan Yan ordered Yang Huai Gaopei to lead 20,000 infantry to advance to Zigui.
Half an hour later, the 20,000 horses and horses successfully entered Zigui, and Yang Huai immediately ordered someone to summon Yan Yan.
Yan Yan divided the army into two parts, stationed in Ziguigang and Zigui City respectively, and at the same time sprinkled a large number of scouts on all sides, focusing on sending a large number of scouts in the direction of Chibi, because there were still a large number of Wei troops in the direction of Chibi.
Yan Yan's 200,000 army repaired in Zigui for one night, and early the next morning, the army marched northward, the front of the army pointed directly at Jingzhou, and advanced to the southern foot of Jingshan at noon. The counties and towns he passed through were all in a sea of blood, the corpses of the people in the counties and towns were accumulated, and many women were killed after being humiliated.
"General, why do you allow your subordinates to kill the people?" Jia Long asked with an indignant expression.
Yan Yan said coldly: "Is this how you talk to the commander of the three armies?" ”
Jia Long pointed at Yan Yan without giving in and asked, "I don't care about this, I only ask the general, why do you want to kill innocent people?" ”
Yan Yan sneered. "Don't these people deserve to die if they rebel against the pseudo-Wei?"
Jia Long was angry. Scolded: "You're a bastard! ”
Yan Yan frowned, and said coldly: "Jia Long." Ben will see that you are a general in Shu, so I respect you for three points, you don't want to get an inch! ”
Jia Long snorted coldly and left with several of his relatives and horses.
"General, this Jia Long simply doesn't take you seriously!" Yang Huai on the side said indignantly.
Yan Yan snorted coldly.
"General, Jia Long is against the general everywhere, maybe something will happen in the future!" General Deng Xian said again.
Yang Huai and Deng Xian made a lot of windfalls in the process of slaughtering the county before, so they were quite unimpressed with Jia Long's remarks.
Yan Yan frowned and said, "Then leave Jia Long at the southern foot of Jingshan to be responsible for intercepting the reinforcements from the Wei State going north!" ”
Yang Huai's eyes lit up. agreed: "This method is very good! However, Deng Xian said with some worry: "I'm afraid that this old guy Jia Long will disobey the yang and the yin, and it will ruin the major affairs of our army!" ”
Yan Yan shook his head and said, "This won't be!" Jia Long is a die-hard person, he will never take refuge in Cao Cao! ”
After a pause, he glanced at the two of them, and said in a deep voice: "You two don't overdo things!" If you can't kill someone, don't kill someone! ”
Yang Huai and Deng Xian couldn't help but feel angry when they saw Yan Yan, and they promised one after another, but it is difficult to say whether they have it in their hearts or not.
Jia Long angrily returned to the ranks of the Wudang Flying Army, and Zhang Ren immediately greeted him. Surprised, he asked, "Old General, why are you so angry?" ”
Jia Long knocked off a small tree beside the road with a punch, and said angrily: "Yan Yan, this bastard, connived at the slaughter and looting of the sergeant, how is it different from a beast?" ”
Zhang Renwen heard this. His face also changed, he still understood Jia Long's personality, and it was impossible to make up this rumor that was easy to know if it was true or false. With a hint of anger, he said: "It seems that I also misjudged the general, old general." In that case, why should we go along with it? Not as good as"
Jia Long understood what Zhang Ren wanted to say. Shaking his head, he said: "This Northern Expedition is related to the great cause of the rejuvenation of our Han Dynasty, and we must not break with Yan Yan when we look at it here!" ”
Zhang Ren said with some indignation: "Is it just like this to watch Yan Yan behave like this? ”
Jia Long sighed, "Although Yan Yan's actions are extreme, Bo is not out of selfishness!" ”
After a pause, he said to Zhang Ren: "General Zhang also asks you to go down to appease the soldiers and explain the reason clearly!" ”
The reason why this Wudangfei army under Jia Long's command is strong is because they have a belief that is higher than life, and what Yan Yan is doing at the moment is completely contrary to this belief of theirs.
Zhang Ren unwillingly agreed and retreated.
Moments after Zhang Ren left, Yan Yan's herald arrived.
"What are the general's orders?" Jia Long asked indifferently, but there was still anger in his tone.
The herald clenched his fists and said: "On the orders of the general, General Jia is ordered to lead the Wudang Fei Army and the rear army under his command to stay at the southern foot of Jingshan Mountain to intercept Cao Cao's reinforcements going north!" The words fell, and the herald presented a stern order.
Jia Long took the general's order, frowned, and said to the herald: "You go back to the general, Jia Long obeys the order!" The herald said yes and left.
Jia Long looked at the arrow in his hand and shook it vigorously.
A group of scouts of the Wei army went around to the rear of the Shu Han army led by Yan Yan, and saw a town in the distance with thick white smoke, as if it had just been ravaged by fire, and everyone couldn't help but be stunned.
"Captain, what's going on?" One soldier asked, surprised.
The captain shook his head and immediately ordered, "Go!" Check it out! Dozens of scouts then rode toward the town.
Before they entered the town, they felt a scorching heat mixed with a pungent smell like pork burning, and everyone couldn't help frowning, and they couldn't help but have a bad premonition in their hearts.
"Come into town and have a look!" After speaking, the captain rode his horse into the town, and was stunned, only to see dozens of corpses lying in front of him in an open space, with different shapes, men, women, and children.
"W-what's going on?" The captain exclaimed. The soldiers around him were also stunned.
"Captain!" A soldier's cry rang out in a house on the left.
The captain came back to his senses and hurriedly ran into the house, and when he saw the scene in front of him, his eyes widened. I saw the corpses of two women in this dwelling, one lying on the bed on his side, and the other lying on his back on the square table, with no strands on his body, his lower body was blurred with flesh and blood, and his body was bruised and purple.
"! It's a brute! The captain punched the door panel.
"Immediately pass the book to General Cao and His Majesty Feige!"
About an hour later, Cao Cao, who was in Chaisang, received a flying pigeon message from the scout.
"Bastard! Yan Yan is so bold to do such a thing? Cao Cao scolded angrily.
"Your Majesty, what happened?" Hu Zhao asked with a surprised expression. (To be continued......)
