Chapter 356: Ambush
On the official road, hundreds of thousands of people stretched for dozens of miles, numbly moving to Yuzhang.
Although Changsha City was invaded by soldiers and horses from the four counties of Jingzhou, not all the people were willing to leave their hometowns and move to Yuzhang. The deadline given by Lu Yao was only three days. In addition to the 300,000 people who moved from the north, less than 200,000 of the hundreds of thousands of people in Changsha City were willing to move to Yuzhang with the army.
Hundreds of thousands of people migrated collectively, and Lu Yao rarely carried forward his style again, personally led a famous general, led 10,000 soldiers and horses, and handed over the large army to Zhou Yu and the others.
It took about half a month for the migration team to arrive at the junction of Changsha County and Yuzhang County. Zhou Yu did his best along the way and took care of it properly. Seeing the junction of the two counties, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Sun Jian had received the news and sent troops and horses to meet the huge migration team. As long as you enter the Yuzhang realm, you will be considered to have completed the task assigned by Lu Yao.
"Report, unknown soldiers and horses suddenly appeared in the rear, and the prince is leading the army to resist."
Suddenly, the school came to report, and Zhou Yu's face suddenly changed greatly. Not long after, Cheng Pu and Huang Gaier rushed over when they heard the news, and asked urgently as soon as they met. After receiving an affirmative answer, both of them were in a hurry.
Lu Yao didn't really say anything to the Sun family. No matter what, you can't sit back and watch Lu Yao being ambushed. Although 10,000 soldiers and horses seem to be a lot, the enemy is dark and I am clear, and this bit of soldiers and horses is not enough insurance at all.
"A certain relative led 3,000 soldiers and horses to gallop to the aid of the prince." Huang Gai has a fiery temper and immediately asks for battle.
"No." Zhou Yu categorically vetoed.
"Do you have to sit back and watch the prince ignore it?" Huang Gai was furious.
"This is the king's order." Zhou Yu said in a deep voice, a trace of worry between his eyebrows.
Cheng Pu and the others were dumbfounded, and hurriedly asked. When Zhou Yu finished explaining Lu Yao's arrangement, the two of them were silent for a long time. I never expected Lu Yao to take the people so seriously, and I didn't expect Lu Yao to have already calculated that someone was ambushed.
"The prince must not be wrong, and ordered the whole army to quickly escort the people into Yuzhang." After Zhou Yu finished explaining, he gave an order without question.
"Order." Cheng Pu and the others had nothing to say, so they were ordered to retreat.
Soon the large forces significantly increased their speed. The team had just crossed a canyon on the border between the two counties. Taniguchi suddenly shouted and killed, and as far as the eye could see, the mountains and forests were full of human figures, and I didn't know how many soldiers and horses were lurking.
"Let's go." Zhou Yu made a decision immediately, and after personally leading the troops and horses, he covered the people's withdrawal into Yuzhang.
Apparently, the ambush was not aimed at the migratory party. Zhou Yu led the army to fight and retreat, and successfully passed through the canyon. The golden ring and three knots appeared from the mountains and forests, saw Sun Jianjun go away, and turned his gaze to the other side again. After a long time, he waved his hand and ordered the soldiers and horses to arrange a defensive line at the mouth of the canyon to cut off Lu Yao's retreat.
……
"Barbarian King, you are not grandpa's opponent, retreat quickly, so as not to hurt the harmony between you and me." The vulture bone is a horizontal thistle bone.
"Why did the lord of the kingdom help that stranger? Have you forgotten how many lives this thief has injured my Nanban? Meng Shu had a gloomy face and an unwilling look.
"My lord had already calculated that someone was going to set up an ambush, but he didn't expect it to be a barbarian king." The vulture grinned, directly ignoring Meng Shu's discord.
Meng Shu's complexion changed slightly, and then returned to normal. Now that a net has been laid, he doesn't believe that Lu Yao can escape. The only problem is the lord of the Ugo in front of him. I can't beat it.
"You are the lord of a nation, so why do you have to serve that man? This king can guarantee that as long as the lord of the country defects, you and I will divide the Nanban equally in the future, how about it? Meng Shu knew that he was not the opponent of the vultures, and immediately knew that it was beneficial.
"Needless to say, the lord has promised me to move to Zhuya as much as possible. Why should I fight for the land of bitterness? The vulture laughed loudly, and was so happy.
He had stayed in Xanadu City for a long time, and knew that although Zhuya Prefecture was vast and sparsely populated, it was rich in products, and it was a hundred times better than the poor mountains and bad waters of Nanban. Lu Yao personally promised that he could move the country of Ugo to Zhuya, and he had already been loyal to Lu Yao. Meng was given this condition...... Han, I can't arouse the slightest interest in him.
"My lord, why talk to him." Dong Dana stared at the vulture bone fiercely, eager to try: "He is the only one, how can he stop my thousands of troops." ”
"How can thousands of troops and horses be put in the eyes of grandpa, there is a kind of coming to fight with grandpa." The vulture bone laughed loudly, quite with the power of a husband who could not be opened.
Meng Shu was furious, and with a wave of the giant axe, he took the lead in rushing over. Dong Dana's spirits lifted up, and he led the army to cover it, and the vulture bones were submerged in an instant.
"Hugh has to fight, go chase." Meng was alone in the battle against the vulture bones and shouted loudly.
Although Dong Dana knew that Meng Shu was not the opponent of the vultures, it was not easy to lose Meng Shu's face, so he had to wave his army to chase and kill along the official road.
After a meal, Mo saw from a distance that a formation had formed on the flat ground in front of him, with no more than 3,000 soldiers and horses. Dong Dana looked at it, but the leaders were Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong, who were well-known among the Southern Barbarians.
"Kill!" Dong Di shouted violently, and drove the giant tiger under the seat to take the lead and went straight to the past.
"Changshan Zhao Zilong is here, and Hugh is rampant." Zhao Yun shouted loudly and slapped his horse to meet him.
Where is Dong Yun's opponent. After a few counts, Dong Di's arms were numb, and the anger of being eager for revenge melted away, and the secret way was not good. Fortunately, the barbarians in the rear came in time and rushed up to force Zhao Yun to pull his horse and retreat.
With the help of the barbarian soldiers to force Zhao Yun back, Dong Dana's spirit was greatly boosted and he drove the tiger to catch up. But this time he kept an eye on it, and refused to be too far away from the brute soldiers behind.
"Let's go." Huang Zhong pressed the formation behind, saw that the barbarian army was strong, shouted urgently, opened his bow and shot an arrow, and hit the front leg of the giant tiger under Dong Di's seat. The giant tiger was in pain, and the person stood up, almost tearing Dong Diana off.
An arrow forced the brute army to plummet to save Dong Dana, Huang Zhong retreated sharply, and led the army to fight and retreat. Less than ten miles, another group of soldiers and horses formed a formation to block the official road.
"Shoot the arrows." Zhang Liao commanded the soldiers and horses to let Zhao Yun and Huang Zhong's army, and when he gave an order, the arrows rained down, forcing Dong Dana to lose all momentum.
After only a cup of tea, Zhang Liao accepted it when he saw it, and a rain of arrows fell, and then led the army to retreat. followed by Mrs. Zhurong and other generals who appeared one after another, and every time they were dipping and leaving, at most, they would only spend time on tea, and they would never stay for a moment.
The more Dong Dana chased, the more frightened he became, and he couldn't figure out that Lu Yao still had so many soldiers and horses. Along the way, they encountered more than a dozen blockades, each time at least about 3,000 soldiers and horses, and the total number of soldiers and horses exceeded 30,000, which is not consistent with the intelligence at all.
"Don't act rashly." Dong Di had no clue about it, so he had to order a cautious pursuit. The three knots of the golden ring in front of him have led the army to block Lu Yao's retreat, and there is no reason to be greedy for merit.
After chasing all the way, a few hours later, I saw the canyon where the Golden Ring Three Knot was ambushed in the distance. Dong Dana's spirits were greatly lifted. Lu Yao in front had already formed a formation and held on to the spot, obviously seeing the defense line laid out by the Golden Ring Three Knots.
Dong Di laughed happily, waved his big sword, and led the barbarians to launch a strong attack.
